We're still getting settled but wanted to give you a look at our new studio. Thanks to everyone who participated in our moving sale (closes today, so last chance: maximumfun.org/movingday)! We're so excited to have this nice space and as you can hear, hosts who record here are pumped about it, too!

A rewatch is in order
December 17, 2025 at 5:21 PM
Marching orders:
1) watch HAG (tubitv.com/movies/10004...)
2) watch HOW TO BE SINGLE
3) marvel at the surprising points of comparison
4) Listen to HAG's director, Sam Wineman, on this week's FEELING SEEN!

(step 4 can also become step 1, we won't tell)

It is a most beautiful day on @feelingseen.bsky.social because I have my dear friend Sam Wineman talking about both his new movie HAG, and also about the movie that is core to his being: HOW TO BE SINGLE podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Badge told us a lot of great stories in this episode: about being in a table read with Meryl Streep in his 20s. About working at a Pizza Hut in Utah. And this might be the best of them all: how he almost got fired from the movie SHAME before filming even started. #filmsky

Continuing into our 200s with major star-power…JAMES BADGE DALE gives us an acting masterclass packed-full of amazing stories, and the inspiration he felt watching the free performances in Scorsese’s MEAN STREETS. You gotta listen! #filmsky

Thank you for your help, Felipe! And for your honorary toilet paper dispensing.

For folks who want to achieve this status (well, close to it--all the toilet stuff got claimed so fast, so you won't be on that level), there are still a few items left to be sponsored: maxfunstore.com/collections/...

Looking for a great episode of FEELING SEEN to listen to? There are now 200 to choose from! Like this delightful & insightful conversation with amazing actor Shea Whigham, (which has come up often ever since)? He felt seen by Robert Duvall in TENDER MERCIES. #filmsky

In continuing celebration of 200 episodes...have you heard our very first episode, with @emilystjams.bsky.social, from 2021? Not only does it set the tone for the whole show going forward, but it was nominated for an LA Press Club award!

In honor of 200 episodes, we're sharing some of our favorites. Since guest Thomasin McKenzie, shouted it out on Ep 200, why not give a listen to @jorcru and her interview BFF Allison Williams talking about Mary Poppins and Maria Von Trapp?

Did you know that @alexwinter.com has been acting, writing, & directing since he was a literal kid? Now he's got a new movie, a hit Broadway show, and a 4k remaster of his 1993 film FREAKED. All this and how none other than Buster Keaton showed him the way forward...

Incredibly excited that we landed Katy O’Brien for Feeling Seen. And it was tremendous to talk with her about parasocial ownership of your sexuality when you’re a queer actor, looking to gay to be cast as gay, and the bad bitch Ridley Scott movie G.I. JANE!
Big day on FEELING SEEN, as @jorcru.bsky.social got the chance to talk with @thekatyo.bsky.social (who has literally 5 movies coming out this year!). Better yet that the feeling movie she brought to discuss is…G.I. JANE!

We've got a great conversation today with MISADVENTURES OF BUCKY & BEENE writer/director/producer Lisa M. Thomas today. She's feeling seen by sweet Ludovic in '97's 'Ma Vie En Rose'. It's a fun conversation about the importance of fun (honest) queer voices. #filmsky
