Jordan sits down with the one and only Matthew Lillard, an actor who looms large in the hearts of any Millennial horror lover, and whose fruitful career is still going strong — right now he can be seen in CROSS Season 2, SCREAM 7, and FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY’S 2. But you might be surprised to learn that he devoted a decade of his life to getting one particular movie made: his directorial debut, FAT KID RULES THE WORLD, starring Jacob Wysocki. He shares that creative journey with Jordan — from falling in love with an audiobook he was narrating to winning the Audience Award at SXSW — on today’s episode.

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.
