I am delighted and proud to introduce him as Academy Award winner.

And the Oscar goes to.

And the Oscar goes to the winner. It's a tie. And any little girl who's practicing their speech on the teller you never know.

Ma I just want an Oscar. I'm David Canfield and for this week's interview episode I am off duty. I'm here with Julie Miller and Savannah Walsh.

Hi guys. Hi, hello.

Julie and Savannah you spoke to respectively Gene Smart of Hacks and Nicole Bahari

who is a new cast addition to the morning show, two of the best performances of the season.

So, really excited to hear both of them.

We're going to start Julie with your interview with Jean.

I'm very jealous of you for getting to speak with Gene Smart for a half hour.

That seems like a dream. This is a great season of hacks as we talked about a little bit last week and

we teased this interview Julie so I'm excited to hear what about it she was really excited about

She was excited to explore this new terrain for her character Deborah and Hannah Einbinder's character,

Ava, you know, we've seen Ava start out as an assistant.

Now we know that she's more on Deborah's footing, so we see her try to establish herself try to establish some boundaries and

uh... gene talked a little bit about how Deborah might handle that and whether she'll be able

to to deal with someone else's instruction.

The first two episodes are now streaming on Max.

There are spoilers for those listening in terms of the contents of those.
