It’s hard to believe that more than twenty years have passed since Leonard and Jessie became aware of Lou Taylor Pucci, who starred in two Sundance features called Thumbsucker and Chumscrubber that launched a career that’s still going strong. The still-youthful actor is forever taking on challenges, none wilder than the bug-eyed alien he plays in Touch Me, which is now ON DEMAND AND ON DIGITAL April 7, 2026

If you can judge a person by the company they keep, you’ll know why Leonard and Jessie were eager to talk to Stephanie Laing. She has worked with Tracey Ullman, Julia Louis Dreyfuss and other comedy luminaries as a producer and director and has a new movie opening in theaters today: Tow starring Rose Byrne. Stephanie spoke to us from a shuttered hospital in Jersey City, which is the set of her next film.

Her career has taken her from Shakespeare to Stallone and she has wonderful stories to tell. Caroline Goodall has worked for Steven Spielberg twice—in Hook and Schindler’s List. Now she’s playing a military leader who cuts quite a figure in the science-fiction fantasy Storm Rider: Legend of Hammerhead, which is only in theaters March 13. Leonard and Jessie hit it off with Caroline, who zoomed with us from her home on a barge resting in the Thames River! Tune in for an especially lively conversation.
