- Dianna Agron (As They Made Us, Glee, Acid Man, Shiva Baby) joins us to discuss what it was like to work with Mayim on her new film, As They Made Us. She opens up about her experiences growing up in hotels and her family’s struggles after her father’s multiple sclerosis diagnosis. Mayim and Dianna bond over the scrutiny they faced while publicly coming of age on a television show, the inclination to make art after processing grief, and the benefits of healthy compartmentalization. Mayim explains the process of writing her film in response to the loss of her father and why Dianna’s character was the most difficult for her to write. She discusses body and emotional awareness in another installment of Moments of Peace and Calm.

I had no idea her voice was so deep - haven't seen her since Glee - I LOVE it. She has such a grounded presence.
I absolutely love Dianna Agron. She is a great, great actress. It is so awesome you are coming up with a new film Mayim.
Oh, my goodness. I needed this. I quit my job in Dec. 2017 at 58-yo to take care of my mom and dad. Mom couldn't talk, stand or walk from a massive stroke and dad was losing ground and falling from TIAs. Dad passed June 7 and Mom Aug. 30, both 2019, five months shy of their 70th wedding anniversary. I'm working part-time trying to recover for my retirement years now at 63, thankfully the "thing that happened" came along so I could work from home. I'm anxious to see this movie!! I've been building toward a plant nursery and a small flower farm for my retirement income. Life has room for new growth after the storm no matter your stage in life! 💜
She is so humble, beautiful and well-spoken! This is amazing! Love Dianna Agron so much! Excited for this film ❤️
Glee and TBBT are my favourite shows in the world! Thank you!
Look at her! So proud of Dianna! So glad I follow her career for so long! It's such an awesome feeling to see her shine!
I just love this so so much!! Dianna, what a fun and bizarre and intriguing childhood. You are both incredible, dynamic and intelligent women. Thank you for being so open and vulnerable and for showing up in this incredible space making art that we all neeeeeeeed. Just beautiful, just so great!!!
I have to be honest. When I saw the trailer for the film, I had no idea who the girl was. And then when I looked on IMDB and it was Quinn from Glee, I was shocked. You know she's a great actress when you hate her in the role she played in Glee. I'm excited to see this film. This podcast makes it feel like its the real questions of their lives. And not just all the same 5 questions you hear on talk shows. I wish Dianna all the best in her career and life.
I didn’t think I could love Diana Agron any more than I already did but this interview showed what a thoughtful, deep and warm person she is
A talented person with a good head on her shoulders
Finally Dianna Agron era finally coming!! Its timeee!! Shiva baby was awesome! Cant wait to see this movie!!
Speaking of shows Mayim needs to take over... Inside the Actors Studio. Certainly her temperament and approach to giving a safe space for innermost expression of the actor's innermost self makes for a powerful set of episodes. And again thank you for the Kal Penn episode as well as this one. So engrossing.
Yes!
I grew up in a very unstable home and with a sick mother. I remember the days, weeks and sometimes months spent at the hospitals, the times she had to leave the house in an ambulance, her screams in bed, just laying in pain. It was hard to leave home when I had to and still feel the guilty about it sometimes. My parents are both and have always been mentally ill but refuse to get help for it, I love them but my childhood was scarring. I can relate to this so much, I can't wait to see it, thank you to the both of you and the entire cast💜
Mayim, it's a beautiful movie. I'm crying. You have made a wonderful thing. Everyone was amazing. Xoxo
Such a great interview, love Dianna 💛
Amazing actress, spectacular films and insightful podcast with a great crew . Bless 🙏 u mayim and Jonathon
Mayim, i dont know if you are going to see this comment but i love your voice, im from Argentina and not always we can understand the way you guys speak, but you are so clear!!!!!!!
thanks!
What a lovely interview. Now I want to watch Mayim’s film even more knowing some do these similarities between Dianna & Mayim’s experience.
Thank you for the podcast!💓
She is just so well-spoken, polite and sweet!
As a regular jeopardy watcher I just have to say, you are my favorite host :)
And in case anyone is paying attention, my top 3 podcast guests with Mayim would be:
Pamela Adlon
Robert Greene
Whitney Cummings
I feel that you’d have the most interesting, insightful, magical conversations with those people in particular (and honestly so many others but we’re keeping it short and sweet with a top 3).
Just praying and hoping 🙏🏻😌
Thanks Jonathan and Mayim. Great interview!!
Loved this! Please invite Jennifer Morrison next!
24minutes in and I'm already crying, too close to home (sending hugs her way)
Naya Rivera spoke very highly of Dianna in her book.
@Mayim, I don't listen to a lot of podcasts no matter how much I may enjoy the host(s) because I have a short attention span - SQUIRREL! But I listen to every moment of your podcasts as they are so interesting I am constantly engaged. In this one, post-show, in speaking about the things you learned about physically relaxing your body (one eye brow at a time, for instance) I was reminded of something called the Feldenkrais Method. I studied this while in uni in the mid-80. It was profound to me, being able to relax one half of my face w/out effecting the other half at all. I am glad you found something that helped you, too. And I am so grateful you make this podcast. Your conversations are a rise above the fodder of the rest. Thank you.
💓 that her recurring word was JOY. 🙂 She truly is ... 😍
Yesss! I adore Dianna 💓
Loved everything about this! Really hope I can get this film in the UK! It looks and sounds like an incredible story. Thank you for this Mayim!
Still struggling to find it in the UK :(
I saw the movie tonight. Bravo to all of you. I was in tears more than once. Dustin is also my number 1 favorite actor.
I had NO idea that you directed and produced a movie! And one that sounds sooo amazing as this one! A definite must see for me! Wonderful! Shalom!
I just love Dianna Agron. This was beautiful 💜
I've contacted both you and Maurice Benard from General Hospital ascot the possibility of both of you interviewing regarding mental health. You are both so intelligent and have experienced so many issues. Hope out can happen some day soon
I watched As They Made Us! I thought it was an exceptional movie! I am still emotional after seeing it! It felt like my home!
Love Dianna 💜 She’s always been so well spoken. Love listening to her stories!
Weird hang up about the blonde hair on glee though? She also had pink hair at one point..🙄
wow, so much to share, but i cried like a BABY watching this film. wow. hearing how it deeply connected with Diana just goes to show that you have SUCH a powerful gift Mayim. Your ability to communicate your emotions and perspective and get others to feel, wow. Thank you. I need to watch it again because of the amount of tears I cried cause of the deep reflection your movie triggered, I definitely missed some parts of the movie. Wow. Powerful, powerful, POWERFUL! thank you.
Cute you guys are adorable! 💝🙏💝
Love these 2 women so much!!!
I just saw this movie.
Heartbreaking. Human. Real.
We live inside limbo, "between life and whatever follows".
normalizing pain, surrender and acceptance.
Sometimes, that's all we can hold on to... these amazing memories that are connected to everything we love. As I child, I thought pain was experiencing the exact moment of loss. As I grew, I understood, overwhelming hurt isn't instantaneous, it happens when life settles. Everything just continues to work... why? Humanity is missing out on so much... am I the only one aware? Is it only me?
absolutely beautiful and great actress
This ‘As They Made Us’ story, that many will think is related to a Jewish family, or to own Mayim’s one, has a great dose of “universality”. I can only say that from all aspects they (D & M & J) talked here and from the trailers I’ve watched, this story can be perfectly related to my five siblings Catholic & European rooted family. And that is exclusively Mayim’s, as screenwriter & Director, merit. BRAVO! 💜💜
TRULY at your BEST, and this is a TOP CAST from the insightful Mayim...APPRECIATE what you ADD to US...from this momma of 6 working recovery daily.
Really liked the film. It had a quiet intensity. Dianna did a fantastic job in it and it’s not a subject that’s usually covered in a movie. And it really showed dysfunction well. How subtle and overt the nuances of family dysfunction affect a person.
YAY! It;s another video!
Something different. That's good.
I have to admit, I have also very recently become aware of tension and the way we hold it. I'm realizing that I hold tension in areas of my body that aren't even close to my neck, but as I am releasing said tension, I'm feeling the neck pain decrease overall. It's a really weird thing to think about in the middle of the day, but once you start releasing that tension, things improve. Holding that release, as it were, is easier said than done and if I stop thinking about it, part of me re-clenches again.
Excellent episode. Dianna is such a deep person, and I really enjoyed hearing about her upbringing.
When is the next Bevisode scheduled? ;)
Mayim, you are such a breath of fresh air!
Watching the movie now, I didn't realize it was already out. Loved her on Glee and the movie is so far so good 👍
“Life is not about what you say yes, but about what you say no”. This Dianna’s and Mayim’s motto..OMG! As Dianna says here, we all do know that Mayim was absolutely ready to take Director’s helmet. So, any possibility of “impostor syndrom” must be thown to the trash bin. I hope that ‘As They Made Us’ will be the first of many projects to come.
After watching Mayim and Dianna’s convo here I hope this little gem 💎of film be distributed in my Europe and online streaming be not geolocalized and restricted only to the US!
Yes. I think Mayim has enough organization to wear several hats at the same time.
@@davidlane256 And an absolutely multifasking brain!
Hey Dr Bialik. I admit I don't have any friends in my school and I imagine I'm friends with the main characters from Big Bang Theory. I think this is my way to cope with my loneliness. I admit I also usually imagine the characters are my family or that some of them are famous scientists. I'm a huge fan of yours by the way
So enjoy you on Jeopardy!
Where can I watch As they made us in the UK? Can’t wait to see it :)
When is the movie coming out? In theaters?
When is the movie coming out? In theaters? Tv?
Dianna ❤️
Mrs. Mayim! Please heart my comment. Your podcast save me when I have problems
Mayim, I've loved you since Blossom & I miss Shamy very much indeed! Now I must check out your film, As They Made Us; if the comments on this thread are anything to go by, I'll need a full box of Kleenex & probably a session with my therapist thereafter - I Love You Mayim! You too Dianna! 💌
I would literally risk it all for Dianna lol she's everything!!!
💚💙
how do i see
as we are, im not in ny it's not in the movies. so where? im old enough to be mayim mom but i simply just love her and she is such a role model. i certainly would like her experience on home schooling. i have a 3 yr old granddaughter. ......
Dear sis here we're as they made us, congrats for the great screenplay, ı know that you're also a remarkable director, and once again you directed this wondeful movie through your talents, Dustin Hoffman wow huge fan, this guy rocks, once again great acting performance, a touching beautiful movie, yes dear sis unfortunately sometimes life is not so easy and especially when we loose our loved ones or when we're abonded by our partners, sometimes love hurts and sometimes because of unfortunate diseases,accidental events,financial problems,libido problems when we're so horny,etc, you know, it's a sort of battlefield actually but there's not much we can do about it whereby we're here then somehow we have to deal with it no matter what right? I like these sort of family movies questioning our social and cultural structure,comman generation conflict, parental problems so on and so forth you know that ı've a herniation problem already your script is based on this fact obviously but ı'm a bit scared ı don't wann come face to face with the same problems with your fictional charachter, ı don't wanna get help just even for to pee for instance, that's kind of sad and horrifying oh my gosh ı'm truly so frightened god help us,god save us, we're the creative and intellectual jews of the universe., Dear Mr. Hoffman when you guys have been shooting that famous pandemic film you knew that it's about this pandemic exactly ,you had been referring to the present implicely,ı know it and you know it but the problem is most of the people don't know so is that fair? We The people dear sir right?
❤I loved Dianna in Shiva Baby, starring with the beautiful and hilarious Rachel Sennott. It's one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.😂 It's right up there with Bottle Rocket in terms of hilarity.😅
dianna's voice is so much deeper than her German voice for Glee. I know her voice only as high-pitched sadly :D
I kept realizing I was spending yesterday UN-clenching my jaw! That’d b me too on pacing…my Mom (her memory b for a blessing) said I’d make a good general 😉
I can't find a contact link on the website, for comments or questions. I wanted to suggest Claudia Black as a guest. She does trauma work.
Just Commenting for the algorithm ❤️
Quinn had a good background story of trying to find the father of her baby . Its amazing how also when Quinn was in the car accident , it could have gone worse .
I would like it to be subtitled in Spanish, there are words I don't understand.
Try subtitles and caption . Translation is 👌
Quinn Fabray!
not living in a closet 😭😭😭😭 I’m sorry Dianna I don’t mean it I love you I swear.
amount of promotions just silently tells you - hardships are now everywhere...
You should have asked her what she did to Tay Ray’s mental health. What was being with cray cray Lea Michele?
Diana looks so much like the actress who played Ferris’ girlfriend in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
I noticed that too. Best 80s movie
She was so yummy in Shiva Baby, so down for Dianna being booked and busy ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Its seems having life in Hollywood acting scene put you in mature stage sooners. We think Dianna handle fame gracefully compare to another actors in Glee.
Bialik, you’re such a bad ass, you can go to the premiers rocking a yoga suit !!!
Coming from a man, this comment has a big macho whiff. Of a man you would never say such a thing..
@@marisamartinezolivera not macho whiff as you say, just saying that I’d like to see women not having to be in full makeup and having to use high heels etc just to be sexualised. By the way, I’m a gay man !!!!
@@medicinaemdia4895 Then, next time, try to say it in a way it doesn’t seem so “macho man” thing. And btw, gay man can perfectly reproduce behaviours socially inappropriate too! 😉
Some women enjoy the heels and make up.
Sexualization must be in the eye of the beholder.
What a sad life growing up in hotels
Better than motels or small mobile trailers.
@@forestduffe5576 yeah
How you doin ?? 😘
Its called ADHD.
love tv show family xoxo hot women xoxo
I tried, but got bored.
Dianna's nose looks...different.
why is she so gorgeous it’s kinda fucked up, lovely woman
oh my gosh, mayim!!! this is the best crossover ever
iam a liberal jerk! what do i do Mayim?
