Allison Williams on ‘Mary Poppins,’ ‘The Sound of Music,” & ‘M3GAN 2.0’

Episode 179

3rd July 2025

Whether you’re a nun, a nanny, an actor, or a murderbot, there’s just something magical about letting your true self shine through.

Episode notes

This is a moment 179 episodes in the making: Jordan and Allison Williams (of GET OUT, GIRLS, M3GAN, and much more, including her new podcast LANDLINES) reunite to talk about Allison’s latest film, M3GAN 2.0 (on which she’s also a producer). A little background here: up to this point, Jordan and Allison’s professional lady-bromance had its apex in Jordan’s WIRED profile of Allison, back when the original M3GAN came out. Now they’re talking about feeling seen by two of Julie Andrews’ most iconic roles, and how Allison’s views on life and the characters she embodies have changed over the years.

Then Jordan has one quick thing about her nominee for who should play the new James Bond.

About the show

On Feeling Seen, writer and general enthusiast Jordan Crucchiola invites filmmakers, writers, comedians, and artists to discuss the movie characters that made them “feel seen.” It’s about that instant when a person connects to a piece of art so deeply that they see themselves reflected in it. Every week Jordan gabs it up with a guest about those magical moments when they were watching a film and realized, “That’s me!” It’s an informative, funny, and comforting show about our intimate relationship with movies, the impact they have on our lives, and how they influence our art.
