Morgana O'Reilly: The Truth About One Of The Biggest Show In The World!

It’s not every day you have an Emmy Award Winning actress on your podcast – in fact in over 330 episodes, this is a first! Morgana O'Reilly,

You may know her from the HBO show The White Lotus.

Or from the iconic Aussie soap, Neighbours.

Or maybe Mean Mums. Or the cop show Bust Up on Neon.

Or even her incredible new film “Stories about my body” (Look out for it at cinemas across NZ)

But this conversation reminded me very quickly that a person is never just their IMDb page. Morgana is so funny, so sharp, so sarcastic, so wildly honest, and one of those people who can tell a story about a rock bottom moment in her life and still somehow manage to make it funny, thoughtful and vulnerable all at once.

There is a lot in this one:

* We talk White Lotus, of course.

* Her broke years in New York when she made money by being a model at foot worship parties.

* The reality of winning an Emmy Award during a pandemic.

* And her new film Stories About My Body, which started as a solo show and has now become this incredibly personal movie about making peace with the bits of yourself you’ve spent years fighting.

Morgana is AWESOME. For someone who is world class at pretending to be other people, she is also incredibly comfortable in her own skin. Even if you don’t know her or her work, you’ll be a fan after this. She is a brilliant storyteller.
