Andrew Rannells: From ‘Girls’ Gay BFF to Leading Man

from Obsessed: The Podcast · host The Daily Beast

Andrew Rannells joins Kevin Fallon for a candid, hilarious, and unexpectedly emotional conversation about his new HBO film Miss You, Love You alongside Allison Janney. From grieving parents and processing loss to behind-the-scenes stories from Girls, The Book of Mormon, and Big Mouth, Andrew opens up about the deeply personal experiences that shaped both his performance and his life. The two dive into queer representation on screen, Allison Janney’s status as a gay icon, awkward Hollywood intimacy stories, and why some of the hardest moments in life can also be the funniest. It’s a moving, chaotic, and wildly entertaining episode full of Broadway gossip, emotional honesty, and the kind of unfiltered humor only Andrew Rannells can deliver.  Follow Kevin Fallon on Instagram ⁠@kpfallon⁠ Follow Matt Wilstein on Instagram ⁠@mattjwilstein⁠ New episodes every Thursday, and Saturday; ⁠early drops on YouTube⁠.
