  Bailey The Zen Queen Holds Court on Creativity and the Death of Small Talk

  Aug 18, 202650 minS1

  Episode Summary Holly B. and Rogan welcome Jennifer Lieberman, the multi-hyphenate creative force behind the five-time award-winning solo show Year of the Slut and its bestselling novel adaptation, Year of the What? — for a wide-ranging chat that moves from cozy dog talk to a genuine masterclass in creative self-determination. Jennifer shares the story of her impossibly chill rescue dog Bailey, why she stopped waiting to be "picked" and started producing her own work, and why she believes theater, and real conversation with strangers might be the antidote to our screen-fatigued, hyper-connected-yet-lonely moment. Fun Facts Dropped in the Episode My Big Fat Greek Wedding began life as a one-woman show. Kim's Convenience started as a play at the Hollywood Fringe Festival in 2011 before becoming a CBC series. Sean Baker's Sundance breakout Tangerine was shot on an iPhone. A modestly-budgeted awards contender can spend three times its production cost on an Oscar campaign alone. About our guest Jennifer Lieberman is an actor, writer, and producer from Maple, Ontario. Her solo show Year of the Slut is a five-time award winner, and its novel adaptation Year of the What? became a #1 Amazon bestseller. She teaches independent theater production at Toronto Metropolitan University and has a new book, Independent Theater Production for the 21st Century in Seven Simple Steps , out next month. About our featured pet Bailey is an 8-year-old rescued lab mix known for her regal, unbothered demeanour, her refusal to ever cross the bedroom threshold, and her newfound taste for goat milk powder mixed into her kibble.

  Paws, Playstations & Purpose: Kevin Talks Dogs, Mental Health & Horizon Zero Dawn

  Aug 15, 202650 min

  Episode Summary Kevin, co-founder of the One Moment Podcast , joins Holly B. and Rogan for a warm, funny, wide-ranging conversation about rescue dogs, mental health advocacy, spontaneous travel, and an unexpectedly deep dive into video games. It's a reunion episode after Kevin previously hosted Holly on his own show. NOTE: This episode went longer than usual because Kevin and Rogan got lost in video game talk! I tried to remain focused but they lost me at Horizon! Episode Highlights The One Moment Podcast Focused on mental health, substance use, suicide prevention, women's issues, LGBTQ+ issues, and minority mental health . Self-described as "the Joe Rogan of mental health." Over a year old, live in 51+ countries, distributed across 40+ platforms (yes, including Audible and Mastodon), with roughly half a million impressions and ~14,000 followers. Kevin's driving mission: helping decriminalize suicidal ideation in the dozen or so countries where it's still against the law, so people can seek help without fear of arrest. Runs entirely as a labor of love — no one on the team gets paid. The Gaming Tangent (a fan favorite) Turns out Rogan and Kevin are both diehard Horizon Zero Dawn fans right down to matching Aloy profile pictures on PlayStation Network. Rogan reveals he took a Utah road trip specifically to visit locations featured in the game. Other favorites discussed: God of War (Ragnarök era) , Tom Clancy's The Division 2 , and Ghost of Yōtei . Rogan casually drops that he's a mobile game developer , which delights Kevin Bonus: confirming that " thebomb.com " is, in fact, a real (delightfully retro) gaming website. Grand Theft Auto 6 hype, with Kevin's recommended playing order: San Andreas → GTA V → GTA VI.
