00:00What made you want to join the show for the season? Well, I've been friends with the creator,

00:04the brilliant John Hoffman. He's my good friend for 25 years, 30 years, maybe 30 years. And he

00:10was like, Ma, do you want to come on the show? And I was like, I would love to. And my friend JJ

00:16Philbin, who's a producer on the show, was like, you know, we have this character we think you'd

00:22be great for. She's the Hollywood producer who's making a movie out of the Only Murders podcast.

00:27So I come, the trio, Steve, Martin, and Selena comes to Hollywood, and I'm like, gotta get them

00:33to agree to make a movie about the podcast. So I've never played a Hollywood producer. It was really

00:38fun. And I based it on a lot of people who I've worked with. I'm not going to say who. But she's

00:46kind of, you know, a very aggressive, sharky kind of producer. What was it like working with Martin,

00:53Steve, and Selena on the show? It was great. Well, they don't, they call it the happiest set in

00:57Hollywood for a reason. And it's because it is the happiest set in Hollywood. It's a party

01:02on camera and off camera because you have Steve and Marty sitting around eating your tuna fish

01:08sandwiches, Selena having so much fun, laughing, cracking up. Then you have Eugene Levy visiting

01:15Meryl Streep. It's truly like, it feels like you're at like the funnest party, and then you go shoot.
