Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum

Jon Lovitz (Saturday Night Live, A League of Their Own, The Wedding Singer) joins me this week for a conversation that keeps flipping between hilarious and genuinely heavy. Jon busts my chops for a solid hour, then opens up about losing Phil Hartman and still thinking about him every day 28 years later, the last phone call with his mom before she passed at 97, and everything he tried to do to pull Chris Farley back. We also get into the craft he takes far more seriously than people assume, the acting coach who wrote him off in front of a class, and why the hardest year of his career is the one that made him.

Aimee Garcia (Lucifer, Dexter, The Walking Dead: Dead City) is back for the first time since 2019 and she is exactly the burst of joy I remembered, right up until she tells me she died at four years old and has been living on borrowed time ever since. Aimee gets into her dad's disastrous debut as a walker on Dead City, the .0001% chance Jerry Bruckheimer's team gave Lucifer of coming back before the fans resurrected it, and the day Sandra Bullock told her who really hired her on the George Lopez show. Then it goes somewhere neither of us expected, her first time ever talking about what losing Dolly Parton meant to her, the quote book she has carried for years, and the sleepless night that made her face losing the people she loves.

Dafne Keen (Logan, His Dark Materials, Deadpool & Wolverine) joins me this week and I genuinely did not expect this much depth from someone who is 21. Dafne opens up about what she was already being offered at wrap parties at 11, the first audition that humiliated her and made her want to do it again immediately, and booking Logan out of a room she was sure Millie Bobby Brown was going to walk away with. She also gets into the panic attacks she was hiding on the set of Whistle, the fans who started showing up at her school in Madrid, and the one thing she is most afraid of in life.
