Hi, we're Ben Stiller and Adam Scott. We have severed ourselves from the world for 5 years, making the workplace thriller Severance. While we have no memory of what happened during that time, we thought we should make a companion podcast for all the Innies who will have no recollection of watching, in an attempt to reintegrate them with their memory of the show. For seasons one and two, we did an episode-by-episode, behind-the-scenes breakdown with the creators, cast, crew, and fans of the Emmy- and Peabody Award-winning TV show. We shared in-depth, never-before-heard analysis, alongside guests including creator Dan Erickson, stars Britt Lower ('Helly'), Zach Cherry ('Dylan'), John Turturro ('Irving'), Christopher Walken ('Bert'), Patricia Arquette ('Cobel') and Tramell Tillman ('Milchick'), and celebrity superfans like SZA, Jon Stewart, Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard. Now we're bringing on special guests to talk about the tv shows, movies and cultural touchpoints that influenced us while making Severance. Sometimes we'll talk with the people behind those inspirational works, sometimes we'll talk with fellow fans, and through it all, we'll keep answering your hotline questions. If you've got a question about Severance or the stuff that influenced it, call us at 212-830-3816. From Audacy Podcasts, Red Hour, and Great Scott.  more

Julia Louis-Dreyfus: A Stellar Career in Comedy and DramaJulia Scarlett Elizabeth Louis-Dreyfus was born on January 13, 1961, in New York City. She grew up in an affluent family; her father, Gérard Louis-Dreyfus, chaired the Louis Dreyfus Company, a global commodities and shipping conglomerate. Julia's parents divorced when she was young, and she spent her childhood in Washington, D.C., and New York. She attended the Holton-Arms School in Bethesda, Maryland, and later Northwestern University, where she was involved in the improv group The Mee-Ow Show. She left college early to pursue her acting career.Julia's early career included a stint with The Practical Theatre Company, which led to her being cast on 'Saturday Night Live' (SNL) at the age of 21. Her time on SNL (1982-1985) was a formative experience, though she later described it as challenging due to the competitive and male-dominated environment. Nonetheless, her talent shone through, and she left a lasting impression. Louis-Dreyfus' career reached new heights when she was cast as Elaine Benes on the hit sitcom 'Seinfeld' in 1990. Created by Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld, the show became one of the most influential and beloved sitcoms in television history. Julia's portrayal of the quirky, assertive, and often chaotic Elaine earned her critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase. During the show's nine-season run, she won a Primetime Emmy Award and a Golden Globe Award for her performance. Post-Seinfeld and Continued Success After 'Seinfeld' ended in 1998, Julia faced the so-called 'Seinfeld curse,' where former cast members struggled to find successful post-Seinfeld projects. However, she quickly disproved this notion with her role on 'The New Adventures of Old Christine' (2006-2010). The show was a critical and commercial success, earning her a second Primetime Emmy Award.Julia's career reached another pinnacle with the HBO series 'Veep' (2012-2019), where she played Selina Meyer, a fictional Vice President (and later President) of the United States. Her performance was lauded for its sharp wit and impeccable comedic timing. Over the course of the show's seven-season run, she won six consecutive Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, setting a record and cementing her status as one of television's greatest comedic talents. Personal Life Julia married Brad Hall, whom she met while at Northwestern University, in 1987. They have two sons, Henry and Charles. Julia has been open about her battle with breast cancer, which she was diagnosed with in 2017. She shared her journey publicly, using her platform to advocate for healthcare access and cancer research. Beyond her acting career, Julia is known for her philanthropic efforts and advocacy work. She has supported environmental causes, women's rights, and cancer research, among other issues. Her commitment to these causes reflects her broader interest in making a positive impact beyond the entertainment industry.

Denzel Washington: A Legacy of Talent, Integrity, and Influence Denzel Hayes Washington Jr., born on December 28, 1954, in Mount Vernon, New York, is one of the most respected and versatile actors of his generation. Over a career spanning more than four decades, Washington has become a powerhouse in Hollywood, known for his commanding screen presence, complex characters, and dedication to his craft. Beyond his talent on screen, Washington has also established himself as a director and producer, contributing to both film and theater with a strong sense of purpose and integrity. Early Life and Influences Denzel Washington was born to Lennis 'Lynne' Washington, a beauty salon owner, and Denzel Hayes Washington Sr., an ordained Pentecostal minister and city water department employee. Raised in a middle-class, religious household, Washington was instilled with discipline, faith, and a strong work ethic from an early age. His family's values and religious background would shape his character, while his father's calm and thoughtful demeanor became a model of inspiration. In his teenage years, Washington faced some challenges following his parents' divorce. Recognizing that he needed structure, his mother sent him to Oakland Military Academy in New Windsor, New York. The experience was transformative for Washington, teaching him discipline and helping him avoid potentially troubling influences. 'That decision changed my life,' Washington has said, often crediting his mother and the academy for setting him on a positive path. After high school, Washington attended Mainland High School in Daytona Beach, Florida, where he showed early signs of leadership and charisma. He later pursued higher education at Fordham University in New York, graduating in 1977 with a Bachelor's degree in Drama and Journalism. It was at Fordham that Washington's passion for acting blossomed. He participated in student theater productions, discovering a natural ability for performance that would soon become his lifelong career. Encouraged by his professors and mentors, Washington decided to pursue acting professionally, eventually studying at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco. Early Career and Breakthrough in Film and Television Washington began his professional acting career with theater work and small television roles. He soon caught the attention of casting directors, leading to his breakout role as Dr. Phillip Chandler on the NBC medical drama St. Elsewhere in 1982. The role, which he held until the show's end in 1988, provided Washington with a steady platform to showcase his acting skills to a broad audience and establish himself as a serious talent in Hollywood. During this period, Washington also began taking on film roles, gaining attention for his performances in A Soldier's Story (1984) and Cry Freedom (1987). His portrayal of South African anti-apartheid activist Steve Biko in Cry Freedom earned him his first Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI. more
