00:48every year is different like the first year was was you know i i did my kind of go-to
00:53which
00:53is like to not let any compliment set in and not let any excited be like oh please stop that's
00:58all you know and then i realized it was over and i was like oh but that's sad and so
01:03then the next
01:03year i was like take every compliment and absorb it and then when i didn't win i was like oh

01:43bit of distance a couple months you know it's nine months since we wrapped your work on the show
01:48as an actress it was thrilling to watch there were times i had to pause it just to be like
01:53i gotta just soak let that soak in can you talk about how you changed as a performer and perhaps
01:59what was the most valuable thing that you learned working with david mandel or julia louis dreyfuss or
02:04tony hale or all these amazing performers that you got to spar with these are such like these i could
02:10write essays on each question um and it still wouldn't uh do it justice i mean what have i learned
02:16as an
02:16actor i i you know i mean i think how to take a note better honestly and it's and i
02:25have to say
02:25that's that is in large part to working with armanda yannucci and with dave mandel like it was
02:31you know um once you're collaborating and you really feel welcome to be on set and and you know that
02:38they
02:39see your value you know then it's then you feel like oh good if they're coming to say something to
