Why all these male inspirations, but no female? The answer is an interesting one.

  Skylar Astin "He's a master at throwing lines in and I throw physical things in. He's really good at like little comments at the end. And they they make it better, it's like little buttons." - Marcia Gay Harden, costar on So Help Me Todd - Oct. 2022 Interview on CBS Mornings  https://www.cbsnews.com/news/marcia-gay-harden-so-help-me-todd/ "He's so funny. He has such a quick brain. I think he really understands my sense of humor and he's gotten really good at knowing what's going to make me fall over." - Jane Levy, costar on Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist - May 2020 NBC Interview on NBC.com https://www.nbc.com/access/video/jane-levy-says-skylar-astin-is-so-funny-on-zoeys-extraordinary-playlist-set/4161867 Dylan O'Brien "Oh, the video is burned into my brain.

The pain in his voice is so real, that I cannot help but wonder what he was thinking about to get him in that place.  So why do I listen to the song so often, if it breaks me?
