Deconstructing Memes (with Penn Badgley)

Penn Badgley is warm, kind, and incredibly thoughtful – fortunately, the exact opposite of his character in the Netflix series “You.” As someone who’s been acting since he was a child, Penn shares his views on Hollywood and what it means to be an actor. He also talks about why he initially turned down the role of Dan Humphrey in “Gossip Girl” and discusses the similarities between Dan and Joe from “You.” Please note, Funny Cuz It’s True contains mature themes and may not be appropriate for all listeners.  You can find all show transcripts on the Funny Cuz It’s True page here.
