Nick Roth's "Hanky Panky" is, depending on how you view it, a single-location horror comedy, an alien invasion movie on an extreme budget, or both. Writer-director Nick Roth sits down with Jen to talk about the ins and outs of how he got it made, and the challenges of casting when one of your leads is a napkin.

Actor, activist and the heart and soul behind Star Trek: Picard's Raffi Musiker, Michelle Hurd has a lot to say about a lot of things, and a lot of stories to tell that are good for the soul. She talks about her activism, kindness as an ethos, some of her incredible family stories, and representation in popular culture. We laugh, we cry, it's better than "Cats."

Self-described nature nerd, "Hollow Kingdom" author joins us to talk about her fantastical, magical, poignant book about a zombie apocalypse told from the POV of a domesticated crow. She's joined by Dr. Kaeli Swift, science communicator and scholar of crow behavior. We talk about the book, how it's informed by science and nature, and how art and nature have a thread that connects them.
