How did a Catholic school-girl from rural Ireland fall in love with Roseanne and become one of television’s great auteur voices of the streaming era? Stacey welcomes the BAFTA and Emmy-winning writer and actor Sharon Horgan to the show, who dissects – in her humbly sardonic, oh-so-Irish way – the surprising career milestones (and disappointments) that led her to creating and starring in fan-favorite series such as Pulling, Catastrophe and, most recently, Bad Sisters for Apple TV+. Sharon also shares her top-three favorite Nicolas Cage movies and the enduring love she feels for the late, great Carrie Fisher.
