Iliza Shlesinger (Good On Paper, Unveiled, Spenser Confidential) is a keen-eyed observer of life, and she beautifully showcases her worldview in her new hit film, Good On Paper. We chat about where the character of Andrea diverges from Iliza herself, how close she is to becoming a cult leader, and why her story has connected with so many people.

Listen to my chat with Emmanuelle Vaugier on the latest Strong Female Leads.
Emmanuelle Vaugier | Strong Female Leads
Emmanuelle Vaugier (Lost Girl, Saw 2, Two and a Half Men) plays my favorite type of villain but is basically a saint. She discusses bringing humanity to the more chaotic characters she plays and what she loves about making Christmas movies along with sharing the very sweet story of adopting one of her dogs.
Emmanuelle has such talent, from her delivery to her physicality to her voice, so I reveled in the chance to discover how she layers such heart into her characters, but we also dove deep on important personal matters, like why only OTHER kids had trampolines growing up.
