[TexasTowelie]

Actor Jenny Slate joins Desi Lydic to discuss her Emmy-nominated role in “Dying for Sex.” They talk about the show’s powerful story, based on a podcast about a woman going through Stage 4 breast cancer (portrayed by Michelle Williams), and her experiences playing the woman’s best friend, Nikki. She shares what it was like working with an “icon” like Williams, why telling a story about female friendship was so meaningful, and how the story changed the way she views both death and caretaking.
