    How to Keep Love Alive, With Rob Delaney of ‘Dying for Sex’

    When we meet Rob Delaney’s character, “Neighbor Guy,” in FX’s limited series “Dying for Sex,” he’s scarfing down a burrito in an elevator, dripping food on his face and the floor. But Delaney’s performance reveals that under Neighbor Guy’s messy exterior is a man capable of deep vulnerability and empathy. “Dying for Sex” follows a woman named Molly, played by Michelle Williams, who is dying of cancer and desperate to experience sexual pleasure before it’s too late. At first, Molly thinks Neighbor Guy is disgusting, but the two soon discover they make sense together, sexually and emotionally. Williams and Delaney received Emmy nominations for their roles. Today, Delaney tells host Anna Martin why exposing the messy and painful parts of ourselves to other people can be rewarding and hilarious. He talks about tending his own relationship and reads a Modern Love essay about a couple who decides to try some role play to avoid getting too comfortable with each other. Here’s how to submit a Modern Love essay to The New York Times. Here’s how to submit a Tiny Love Story.

    Rob Delaney

    This week we have our favourite Bostonian comedy actor joining us for lunch at mine, and what a treat it was! Mum was over the moon to have the ‘dazzlingly handsome’ Rob in front of her, and - over an absolutely delish Nigel Slater peach and poached chicken salad - we heard all of his hilarious and heartwarming stories. He told us about meeting his wife at a summer camp 20 years ago, joining an olive oil club with his next door neighbour, working with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, the horrendous food poisoning he got from a dodgy oyster, and we’ve found another Table Manners guest with a penchant for a cold water swim! Rob is not only a fabulous actor, but also a great cook apparently - we’re coming round for a chicken noodle soup soon! Rob is currently staring in Bad Monkey which is available to stream now on Apple TV+. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Flashback: In the Car with Rob Delaney

    Rob Delaney hops into the Honda at LAX after a tour of colleges and theaters. We discuss his book, addiction, car accidents, and that time Chris was a dick to him that he couldn't remember because he (Chris) was probably drunk. Then we drop by his mysterious bank, and ultimately, bring him home to his family. The sound of Rob's soothing voice makes any driver feel safe. If any of this sounds weird it's because I have a fever.  Follow DYNAR - https://www.instagram.com/dynarpodcast/ https://twitter.com/DynarPodcast https://www.facebook.com/dynarpodcast/ https://www.exactlyrightmedia.com/do-you-need-a-ride Follow Rob Delaney - Twitter: https://twitter.com/robdelaney Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robdelaney/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robdelaney/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Rob Delaney and a braised leg of lamb with mint, parsley & almond pesto

    Dish is back! Season three kicks off with US comedian, writer and author, Rob Delaney. Twitter launched Rob Delaney’s career in comedy and in 2012 he was named Funniest Person on Twitter by Comedy Central. In 2014, Rob and his wife Leah moved their family from Santa Monica to North London so he could co-write and co-star in Catastrophe with Sharon Horgan. The show ran for four series and the pair won a BAFTA for best comedy writer in 2016.  Sadly, not long after, Rob’s son Henry was diagnosed with a brain tumour and, at just two and a half, he died. In 2022, Rob released a memoir, A Heart that Works; a deeply moving depiction of the grief that Rob’s family and other families endure and the love that ultimately saves their lives. To mark Easter and a brand new season, Angela serves Rob a leg of lamb with a delicious mint, parsley and almond pesto, broccoli, green beans and new potatoes. The meal is paired with a Blueprint Rioja, Posadas Hisapanas. Rob discusses his passion for peanut butter, what Tom Cruise is like on set and why he’d rather get naked than cook dinner with his wife. A Heart that Works is available now and Rob Delaney stars in Mission Impossible 7, out this summer.   Just so you know, our podcast might contain the occasional mild swear word or adult theme.
