He's nuanced and he's deranged and he's a little sympathetic.

And we've got his portrayer, Gabriel Carter, in the studio today, kind of freaking me out right now, to be honest, [laughs] as well as friend of the pod, Nhi Do, Peabody Award-winning friend of the pod, Nhi Do, who appears as travel blogger who doesn't think too much of the brothers' Bigfoot experience.

Inspired by the Peabody Award-winning New York Times podcast by Susan Burton, The Retrievals follows an unlikely community of IVF patients who come together to crusade against Yale University after they are operated on without anesthesia because a nurse stole their fentanyl.

The show is billed as a powerful call to justice and a surprisingly moving story of friendship and perseverance.

Chastain joins the previously announced Amelia Jones and Amy Ryan.

Bill's work has been shown, among other places, on Netflix, Showtime, Apple, Paramount+, Disney, TNT, CBS, Fox, and FX.

I first saw his TV work when he was creator, producer, and writer of the ABC show, Nothing Sacred, which won Peabody, Humanitas, and Writers Guild of America awards.

just this morning rewatched the first episode, and it had an even greater impact on me than when I first saw it in 1998.

Bill started out as a street juggler with the Royal Lichtenstein Quarter Ring Sidewalk Circus, and later he founded and for seven years ran the Boston Shakespeare Company.

Every single one of them has won an award for their work.

So we're talking New York Festival Awards, Emmy Awards, Peabody Awards, Oscar Awards, Girls Door, Prix d'Italia, and many, many national-only or domestic awards competitions.

So all of these people that are judging the work that our entrants submit have created award-winning work now.

because we invite the previous award winners to join the next year's grand jury.

As Voltaire said way back in the 18th century, um, there, "Mockery is the best response to unintelligible propositions." And with Jordan Klepper, three-time Emmy Award winner and co-host of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, you have someone who, again, doesn't just know how to make a good joke, but knows how to use a joke to tell a story and expose the truth.

He's also a recipient of the Peabody Award and the Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in Television Journalism for his work through The Daily Show as the creator and host of the acclaimed Jordan Klepper Fingers the Pulse series, which went over 100 million views.

He's an author of essays and op-eds for CBS Mornings and The Boston Globe on politics and civic life.

And he is a nationally touring performer whose show, Suffering Fools, sold out theaters across the country.
