Episode Synopsis

Steve Zahn gained early attention for his breakout roles in the 1990s, including "Reality Bites" and "That Thing You Do!" He became a frequent scene-stealer in films like "Out of Sight," "Happy, Texas," and "Saving Silverman," showcasing his offbeat humor and charm. In HBO's "Treme," he played a passionate music teacher navigating post-Katrina New Orleans. More recently, he appeared in the first season of "The White Lotus," earning critical acclaim for his role as a troubled father on vacation. His latest is personal on multiple levels—the indie film "She Dances," which he co-wrote with his producing partner Rick Gomez, who also directs. On this episode, he talks about co-staring in that film with his daughter Audrey, and being continually blown away by her work. He takes us back to his early stage work, makes a case for the importance of rehearsal, gives us the two attributes that make a great director, explains why he loves the communal aspect of filmmaking, and much more.
