EP.282 - KRISTEN SCHAAL

Adam talks with American actor, writer and comedian Kristen Schaal about Joan Proctor the Dragon doctor, why Kristen believes eating after 5pm is disgusting and why the subject of meal times is tearing the Buxton family apart, ideas for films, screen kiss etiquette, what Kristen's work colleagues might be criticising her for behind her back, the crisis in TV production on both sides of the Atlantic and a few of the products in Kristen's life that never let her down.

Conversation recorded face-to-face in London on 5 August, 2026

Thanks to Diggory Waite and Claire Broughton at Hattrick and Séamus Murphy Mitchell for production support.
