    Andrew Rannells

    The hilarious, Tony-winning Andrew Rannells (Book of Mormon, I Don't Understand You) joins Jessi and Liz to talk about how his sex scene with Nick Kroll got cut from a movie, whether it's OK for grownups to have a best friend (or be best friends with their dog), and how sensitive he is on a scale from 1 to 10.
