About this episode

Host Nikki Boyer sits down with Rob Delaney and Jay Duplass, who bring depth and humanity to the male characters in FX's 'Dying for Sex.' Delaney opens up about playing the enigmatic 'neighbor guy,' finding vulnerability in comedy, and creating chemistry with Michelle Williams. Then, Duplass discusses embodying Steve, Molly's well-intentioned but overbearing husband, and shares behind-the-scenes insights about filming some of the show's most vulnerable moments. Together, they explore how this story about death ultimately teaches us how to live more fully.
