In Episode 214, Trev and AJ go down the rabbit hole of branding versus authenticity and unpack a listener question about the monologue audition process for schools. Then they sit down for Part 2 of their chat with actress and producer Jenna Fischer (The Office) to dig deeper into her 9-year journey from just another Hollywood hopeful to her role as Pam on NBC’s hit show The Office.

In Part 2, Jenna clarifies the difference between procrastination and research, how her first ‘real’ agent came from her pursuing her love of the work (and NOT from a premeditated self-promotion campaign), and perhaps most importantly, how she made it through those early, confusing, lean years when it seemed like nothing was happening for her career. Total running time: 57:41.
