Will Arnett

By the way, and I said to Jason, nobody in the history of an award show has done a bit with their back towards the audience.

JB, that was so good.

Anyway.

Ready?

Yeah.

My guest today is wonderful.

She's fantastic.

She's living proof that good things come to those who wait.

She grew up in Adams, Tennessee, population 600.

where her parents ran the only grocery meat shop in town.

She hung around the local funeral home for fun.

After college, she sold jewelry at house parties to help make ends meet.

25 years later, she's finally having her moment at 60.

Sold out arenas, Netflix specials, best-selling memoir, hit sitcom.

She's a self-proclaimed Mrs. Maisel of Appalachia.

It's the hilarious, big-hearted Leigh-Anne Morgan.

Oh, I like beagles.

so you're Knoxville eat me that's amazing I mean it is really cool like Will said to hear your story and we'll get into it in a sec but like I am so I don't even know you and I'm so excited for you for all that's happening thank you it's really really cool

I know.

Wait, Leanne, so tell me like to what Will just said, why do you think you are hitting at this time right now in your life, in this business and all of it?
