Episode notes

The host and writer of the SIGNIFICANT OTHERS podcast, Liza Powel O’Brien, was a teenager when Dustin Hoffman’s iconic Michael Dorsey/Dorothy Michaels dropped into her life via TOOTSIE. The Michael/Dorothy transformation illustrated to her the same thing it showed Michael in the movie: it takes a lot of work to dress up like a woman.

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.
