MONDAY ANALYSIS: Lena Dunham has just released a brand new memoir – it’s titled Famesick, and it goes into a LOT of detail about the last fourteen(ish) years of her life. There is just far too much in this book for us to cover everything, so we decided to home in on one of the major figures in this book: Jack Antonoff.  Huge thanks to Nespresso for making this episode of Shameless possible.
