The Mother Of It All

Is Postpartum Depression Funny? Lauren Lapkus and Nora Fiffer Think It Can Be


Listen Later

Miranda and Sarah are joined by actor and comedian Lauren Lapkus and actor and filmmaker Nora Fiffer to talk about their tender, hilarious new film, Another Happy Day. We discuss the isolation and absurdity of early motherhood, taking care of care-takers at work, and why Hollywood should be just as saturated with postpartum movies as it is with World War II movies.
