It's time to explore the World According to Glenn. I'm Kevin Jacobsen, Glenn Close is my favorite actress, and this show is all about exploring the career of one of the finest actors of her generation. Each episode, I'm joined by a guest as we dive into one of Glenn's movies, TV shows, or stage productions, going chronologically through her career, discussing her performance, and assessing the project itself.

This week, critic and podcaster Josh Parham joins me to dive into Glenn's silly performance as the First Lady of the United States in Tim Burton's Mars Attacks! We discuss Glenn fully understanding the assignment, her chemistry with Jack Nicholson, how the film holds up nearly 30 years later, and so much more!
