Life is Short with Justin Long

Life Is Short(er) Re-Run: Checking Out Guys, Stage Anxiety, and Bassist vs Drummer 🍇

Justin and Christian discuss an embarrassing moment in which Christian was mesmerized by a beautiful man hogging the cheese section at Whole Foods. Then a listener asks for advice for an anxious new actor who closes her eyes while performing on stage. Then, we hear a voicemail from a rather jolly listener named Justin Lamb who wants to know whether the guys would rather be a rock drummer or a rock bassist.See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.

Is it just me or is time flying by? How do we make the most out of our short time here on Earth? That’s what we’re here to find out. I’m Justin Long and I’ve been an actor for most of my life, so I’m used to getting inside the heads of the characters I play. But now that I’m getting older (I’m in my forties, yikes), I want to peek inside the heads of real people to learn how they find meaning in life. I’m also very curious what their favorite snack food is, and what emoji they use most often — ya know, the REALLY important stuff. Every episode I’ll get personal with all kinds of people, from actors to musicians to deep thinkers who fascinate me. My brother Christian is on hand each episode to keep me honest, and occasionally remind me about some of the embarrassing things I’ve done over the years. Join us, or if you have more important things to do, that’s okay too — life is short!Listen to Life is Short on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
