I remember a few years ago she was on the Jeremy Vine show I think? She was really boring and quite awkward on there too. I think the same is true of interviews she did for Harry Potter. She's said she's not an extrovert and she seems quite uncomfortable with performing as herself. Probably why she hasn't been able to make much of a name for herself in mainstream media. It's a shame really cos on the podcast she's very likeable and funny.Can’t remember if this has been mentioned or not but Jessie was on the Line of Duty podcast fir the second episode. She was so dull! She comes across as a nice person on it but really nothing funny or interesting to add
her bit in the podcast where she said she doesnt absorb other things i.e they were talking about youtube videos - in case they change her own creative ideas in her head.
She sounds v nuts is she ok?
I always enjoy their podcast and it's the only podcast I actually watch, not just listen to. Genuine question but why all the hate for Dunham? I don't know much about her....I’ve quite enjoyed the latest podcast episodes. I feel like sticking to topics based on personal experience ( stories about auditions or interactions, expectations) is what they seem best at.
( the further away I am spiritually from acknowledging Bebe is a Dunham stan the better)

She also wrote on her biography some questionable stuff which alluded to sexually assaulting her younger sister - whilst she played it off as just normal and apparently the family (primarily the sister) were devastated she had put it out to public.Far too much to detail. She inserts herself into a lot ( less so recently but... maybe she’s taking a break from it all).
Lena once stated that she “still hadn’t had an abortion” but wished she had just so she could join the conversation. When a former Girls writer was accused of assault towards a 17 year old ( daughter of a famous actor) she sided with him immediately before backtracking. She also said some pretty fetishising things about black men ( Odell Beckam debacle).

That isn’t all of the reasons but basically she is one of the original privileged millennial hipsters scoring tv deals straight out of college (lacking of any self awareness that they had help getting there). Her behaviour is very immature and reeks of someone who never had to face consequences ( because every word spoken was deemed ‘self expression’ by her very wealthy, very creative parents).
Hope that summed it up. Ha.

I haven't seen it yet but I'd be surprised. I can't imagine her putting herself out there like that- she seems too uptight. Also, would the target audience of that show even know who she was?? Then again I've heard they've had to scrape the barrel for this seriesHas anyone watched the masked dancer? Seen a few people on Twitter speculating that the scarecrow is Jessie
