We're going to talk about a lot of fun things today. We're going to talk about her incredible range as an actress. We're going to talk about the difference between phobias and phonias. We're going to break down what it's like hosting award shows, and we're going to discuss her new movie, her great new P.D. Anderson movie, one battle after another, which is in theaters this week. But we always do this before we have our guest. We talk to someone who knows our guest who wants to speak well behind their back. And we have a great guest today, the extremely talented Andrew Rannells. Andrew was Regina's co-star on Black Monday. He is the imaginary father of the imaginary twins, Don and Don, that they seem to share a little inside joke on set. And you know him from Book of Mormon. You know him from Girls 5 Eva. You know him from Too Much. Lena Dunham's new show. He's just a real peach. So let's get him on. Andrew. Andrew. Are you there? Amy. There you are on your set and everything. There you are. It's so good to talk to you. It's great to talk to you. Thank you for asking me to do this. Are you kidding? Thank you so much for doing this. I know you and Regina are good buds. We really are. And she has such a great rep. She really does. I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't say like, ah, she's the best. It's always a good idea to hang out with Regina Hall. Okay, we're going to get to Regina, but first of all, I'm very, very excited to talk to you. To me? Of course. I hope I can get you in the stewed one of these days. I would love it. I mean, I haven't got a chance. I feel like you and I probably crossed paths and like been in the same room at a fancy event. But I am a very, very big fan of your work. Well, that's very generous, if you just say, because I am a huge fan of your work. And I always get very nervous when I see you. Oh, tell me why? Well, I just get nervous that I'm like, should I talk to her? Or should I not talk to her? Am I talking to her for too long? Oh, yeah. You know, it's like, should I get in, get out? It's one of those things. I usually do is at some event. Yeah, that like, there's a bunch of people around and it's like, I don't know, there's like a receiving line of people who want to like talk to you. And I just sort of, I choose to do the, like, well, I would say if you have chosen not to talk to me, I appreciate that. Because I have a lot of social anxiety, which does not look like I do, but I do in those events and I get overwhelmed. Same same same. One of the first like big parties I went to when I first moved to LA, I was very lucky. And I walked in with Jessica Lange. Oh, and I know, right? You floated in with Jessica Lange. I floated in with Jessica Lange and Jessica Lange just wanted to like, bolt onto me because I'm sort of tall. And, um, and I think she likes that. I think she likes us. So then all night, I got to be the gatekeeper to Jessica Lange and people, people I really respected who didn't know me were coming up to me and saying, could you introduce me to Jessica Lange?
