Happy Sad Confused

Welcome Alden Ehrenreich back to the pod! Josh and Alden go way back–back to Alden’s first press tour with Francis Ford Coppola in 2009. Alden visits HSC in honor of his new film, A TALENT FOR MURDER, and also chats about the SPIDER-MAN audition he blew, fighting for his role in Zach Cregger’s WEAPONS, how he feels about SOLO today, and how he couldn’t make it through that now iconic scene with Ralph Fiennes in HAIL, CAESAR! without laughing. Plus, his time in the MCU, why Christopher Nolan’s OPPENHEIMER set was unlike any other, how he really feels about Instagram, and more!

Plus, tips on how to deliver the most Borat-esque “my wife,” the moment that made him feel seen by the MCU team, how he’s prepping to star in Quentin Tarantino’s latest project, and more!

The one and only Michael Douglas joins the podcast. Michael bares all in his new memoir, ONE HELLUVA RIDE, and he sits down with Josh to share an even more in-depth look at the book’s revelations–plus a few that didn’t make it to the page. From telling his father, Kirk Douglas, that he wanted to act, to getting pushed by Oliver Stone on the set of WALL STREET, to an account of what it was like to film intimate scenes before an intimacy coordinator became the standard, to why he decided to do ANT-MAN, this episode is a treat for anyone who’s resonated with Michael’s prolific life.
