You might know Kate Moennig and Leisha Hailey from their iconic roles as best friends Shane and Alice on The L Word—they’re best friends in real life, too! In this special episode, Anne and Frances talk with Kate and Leisha about their new book So Gay for You and uncover the story of their friendship and its critical role in their success as actors on the show (and beyond). They dig into the benefits and risks of working with your friends, discuss the importance of honest communication, and explore how the L Word team leveraged real-world relationships for better storytelling.
