This week we are in stitches with the hilarious and generous Rachael Harris. You Might Know Her From The Hangover, For Your Consideration, Lucifer, Reno 911!, Suits, Fat Actress, and Natural Selection. Rachael chats with us about being discovered by Christopher Guest while performing with The Groundlings, grounding the “angel baby” work on Lucifer, and showing off her incredible range in dramatic fare and the classics. This is one for the books. Folks, we know it’s been (and continues to be a week) but we love you, we see you, and we are here for you.
