An OK podcast

Very new to the “danonation” (as a growing group of very dedicated fans call it) and have been having so much fun listening to this podcast :) I’m really sad episodes are inevitably going to slow once y’all start catching up with his filmography, but I’ll be excitedly waiting for new ones when he makes more stuff! Have a great day :)

Finally, a podcast that explores my favorite actor

During covid quarantine I decided I was going to stream and rent every film/show Paul Dano had starred in, as he is my favorite actor. It took me four months but I did god’s work, annoyed husband and all. I debated on ranking these myself for my own weird personal enjoyment, but as a stay at home mom with two tots I never found the time. Then I stumbled upon this instagram and saw the “shelf of Dano”, discovered this podcast, and now I get to listen to people discuss all the media I just binged on. Especially people who are in the film industry themselves. As a psychologist, I have been fascinated with psychoanalyzing a few of his fictional characters— so to hear others ask “is Paul Dano ok?” is the “aha! I found my people!” moment (and podcast) I didn’t know that I needed. Escape at Dannemora is my favorite role of his and I cannot wait to hear the podcast cover this in another season. In summary: yessss!
