Tony Hale: Gentleness for Our Awkward, Anxious Selves

Tony Hale: Gentleness for Our Awkward, Anxious Selves

What if we never fit in? Or always miss the script that everyone else seems to so easily understand? From Arrested Development’s Buster Bluth to Veep’s Gary Walsh or Toy Story 4’s Forky, Emmy Award Winning actor Tony Hale is an expert in awkward.

In this episode, Kate and Tony talk about:

  • How acting is an act of empathy
  • What it feels like to feel outside of the Acceptable People
  • Having grace for our most awkward moments


This conversation will offer you a little gentleness for our awkward selves, our in-pain selves, our out-of-step selves, our misunderstood selves. Bonus: it will also make you laugh.
