Damian and Anne are joined by Emmy-winner Mary Kay Place and we are just gagged. You Might Know Her From Diane, The Big Chill, Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, Big Love, Lady Dynamite, The Rainmaker, It's Complicated, and New York, New York. Mary Kay gave us all that sweet Hollywood talk from her start as a writer on Mary Tyler Moore and M*A*S*H, to her decades-long career which spans acting, writing, singing, voiceover (she dubbed a lesser actress in Terms of Endearment) to her first lead role in Diane. We are ready for the Oscar nom, folks. Get on the train.
