If This Is a Movie with Rashawn Scott

Rashawn Scott (South Side, Abbott Elementary, Second City) tells me about the hell of the Old Navy stock room, the impulse to narrativize your life, a couple of really intense moments at funerals, and her grandmother delivering an unintentional post-college wake-up call. Rashawn is one of my favorite comedic actors, and she's expansive, self-assured, and vulnerable all in one in this episode.

I think this show's worth the cost of a coffee or a meal a month. If you do too, subscribe for $5 or $15 at patreon.com/davemaher. You'll get my full convo with Rashawn, every installment of the companion podcast This Is Your Aftershow, and shoutouts in future episodes.
