It's only slightly awkward to welcome Zoey Deutch to an office where a "Back to the Future" poster hangs prominently (her mom is of course Lea Thompson) but luckily Zoey thrives on the slightly awkward.

Josh and Zoey talk about her young film career, the ups and downs of "Vampire Academy", her new film, "Flower", and why she's never met her therapist in person. Plus Josh recaps his 2018 Academy Awards experience! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Come for the effortless charm of Paul Rudd and Justin Theroux but stay for the fart talk. That's right, this episode of "Happy Sad Confused" runs the gamut but what would you expect when Josh is visited by these two hilarious actor/writers?  First there's the important stuff. Paul and Justin have re-teamed for a 4th time on screen with their new film, "Mute", a sci-fi noir from the mind of Duncan Jones. But these two can riff on anything and Josh takes full advantage in this chat. Among the topics broached: that distinctive NPR voice, how challenging the luge really is, that time Paul was in a Hong Kong action movie, their favorite underrated comedies, and yes, flatulence.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Don't call it a comeback because if you really look at her resume, Holly Hunter has basically been killing it consistently ever since the cameras found her. She burst out of the gate like a bullet with "Raising Arizona" and "Broadcast News" in the same year and hasn't looked back since. On this episode of "Happy Sad Confused" the Oscar winning actress visits Josh to talk about her return to television with her new HBO series "Here And Now", the phenomenon of "The Big Sick", why she popped up in "Batman v. Superman", and what it was like to live with Frances McDormand way back when.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.

Whether you know it or not, you've probably seen most of Francis Lawrence's films and likely many of his iconic music videos (he's helmed classics for the likes of Britney Spears, Janet Jackson, and Beyonce). Lawrence isn't a bombastic personality but don't let his amiable manner fool you, he's at the top of his craft, working with huge budgets, beloved franchises, and ginormous movie stars. Look no further than "Red Sparrow", the spy thriller coming out March 2nd that stars Jennifer Lawrence (this marks Francis' 4th consecutive collaboration with the Oscar winner). In this visit to "Happy Sad Confused", Lawrence talks about his unique creative partnership with Jennifer, how she put herself through the ringer for their latest film, and what it was like to helm the last three installments of "The Hunger Games" saga. Plus, Lawrence reflects on his regrets surrounding "Constantine" and "I Am Legend", whether there's another comic book film in him, and why he's excited about potentially directing a "Battlestar Galactica" film.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Let's be honest, a year ago very few people knew who Rachel Brosnahan was. Hell, even a couple months ago, before "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" debuted on Amazon, she could still pass by unnoticed on the streets of New York where she lives. That's all starting to change very rapidly now that her Amazon series has landed and garnered amazing reviews, not to mention a Golden Globe for Best Comedy Series and a Best Actress award for Brosnahan herself.  On this episode of "Happy Sad Confused", Brosnahan talks about what it's like to be the face and voice of Midge, the memorable center of this delightful series. Plus Rachel reveals why her pivotal role on "House of Cards" was such a surprise, what role she lost out on really wrecked her, and why Raven-Symone's work is forever embedded in her brain.  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the 200th episode of "Happy Sad Confused" and what better way to celebrate than to bring back one of our favorite guests, Domhnall Gleeson! It seems like it's always an embarrassment of riches when Domhnall re-enters the spotlight and that's certainly the case right now with no less than three films out within weeks of each other, "A Futile and Stupid Gesture", "Star Wars: The Last Jedi", and "Peter Rabbit". Josh visits with Domhnall who is enjoying his first Sundance film festival with the story of the rise and fall of the National Lampoon, "A Futile and Stupid Gesture", premiering there. But of course this conversation veers all over the place in the best possible way with plenty of fun Star Wars talk and much more. Learn more about your ad choices.
