Description

Karla Souza joins Matt and Jack fresh off Jack's chance encounter with Viola Davis on the streets of New York; a good omen if there ever was one. Karla catches them up on everything she's been up to since HTGAWM: Home Economics, her new Amazon show 56 Days, a newly released comic book, and her ongoing advocacy work. But first: the audition story. She originally read for Michaela, got redirected to Laurel, had never heard the word "booked" used that way, and thought Shonda Rhimes was Busta Rhymes. The rest is history. On the podcast, Karla opens up about constantly auditioning out of the back of her car, leaving behind a successful career in Mexico to take a risk on the American market, and how her acting career has led to becoming a producer and hopeful future director. She gets into her background as a trained gymnast, her TED Talk on muscle tears and growth, the adrenaline addiction that links athletics to acting, and how she gravitates toward projects that, often unknowingly. reflect her own unhealed wounds. They also getinto how faith and listening shape her approach to acting, what Death of a Salesman rehearsals have dredged up for Jack (therapist search officially underway), and Matt's quiet evolution from self-described atheist on the HTGAWM set to something more spiritual now. We want to hear from you!
