Arden Myrin Is Back!

By on September 20, 2020 in podcast, Uncategorized

Arden Myrin is comic, actor and writer. You know her as Regina Sinclair on Netflix’s Insatiable. She’s also appeared on shows like Orange is the New Black, Shameless, Chelsea Lately, Inside Amy Schumer, Gray’s Anatomy, Friends, RuPaul’s Drag Race among others. She hosts the I Heart Radio Bachelor podcast Will You Accept this Rose? and now her first book, Little Miss Little Compton, is coming out September 29 (but it’s available for pre-order now). Arden and I talked about the process of writing the book, how it morphed from a breezy beach read to something a little more serious (but still very funny!), grief, Bermuda bags, reality TV, acting, tricky parents, learning to speak up for yourself when you feel ready, relationships, checking her motives and so much more. We also answered your questions. Full video available on http://youtube.com/alisonrosen
