Episode 200 - Music, Acting, and Effective Communication with Taylor Mallory

The wonderfully talented and thoughtful Taylor Mallory joins the podcast this week to chat with Doug and Justin about how music affects us, how it works as a mode of time travel, and how our parents' taste in music influenced us. The heroes then discuss their relatively spoiler-free thoughts on the recent Black Mirror episodes before turning to the topic of acting and finding a way to be vulnerable and access real emotions. The nerds then talk about effective ways to communicate, giving good feedback, and how to be a good person. Things are wrapped up with a throw-down featuring Jared Leto vs. Marlon Wayans.
