Season 4 of "Insecure" may have just come to an end, but you can still hear from one of the most exciting voices on the scene on Episode 02 of the pod! Amongst many topics in a wide ranging conversation, Pete chats with Issa about making the impossible leap from webseries to premium cable, mistakes directors can avoid (at least on her show), and who might play her in the biopic we all know is coming in 2045 (and...yes, Pete would like to direct it).
