New conversation every Tuesday.

Jared Harris (Chernobyl, Mad Men) joins us this week for a deeply personal and fascinating conversation about legacy, loss, and learning to trust himself as an actor. He opens up about growing up with his father Richard Harris, how that chaotic love shaped his view of art and fame, and the long road it took to find his own voice. Jared shares candid stories from Mad Men and Chernobyl, the pain of being written off a show, and the surprising moments of grace that came from failure.
