Character Actors, Josie and the Pussycats, and Weeknight Dinner Slumps with Lana Schwartz (Author of Set Piece from 831 Stories!)
Thingies time! We’re so excited to sit down with Lana Schwartz, the author of the newest 831 Stories release, Set Piece. We talk favorite character actors, joining ClassPass in 2025, and an incredible podcast season that inspired her book.
the linkage:
Lana’s Thingies include ClassPass (she’s been hitting up MADabolic, Lucent, Good Move, and New Love City), Lorne by Susan Morrison, Sex and the City rewatches, movie trivia at Syndicated, the Rilo Kiley reunion, and Easy Weeknight Dinners by Emily Weinstein.
Lana got some inspiration for Set Piece while listening to the You Must Remember This podcast season on Polly Platt.
