434 - Stephen Merchant: How to Live Through Your Life’s Awkward Moments… Build Your Ridiculous Muscle

Stephen Merchant is 2x GoldenGlobe-winning actor, writer and director. I'm a fan of everything he's worked on (The Office, Office Space, Extras, Hello Ladies, etc.). And now he has a brand new movie coming out that I highly recommend called "Fighting With Family." The Rock is in it. Stephen wrote and directed it. It's based off of a real-life family who raised their kids to be professional wrestlers. And it tackles all of these real-life human experiences like the fear of not making it, the pressure to succeed, setting difficult expectations for ourselves and so on. This episode is both funny and totally relatable. Just like Stephen's upcoming movie (coming out Feb. 14) I write about all my podcasts!
