Comedy duo John Early and Kate Berlant sit down to discuss their unique brand of humor, moving past the "alt-comedy" label, and the importance of bringing emotional sincerity to their work. John opens up about writing and directing himself, while Kate shares insight into developing her character, Dina. They also talk about working with icons Taylor Swift ( @TaylorSwift ) and Charli XCX ( @officialcharlixcx ), navigating complex, realistic on-screen dynamics and why creating traditionally entertaining, "full feeling" narratives is their ultimate goal.
