Brittany Snow (The Hunting Wives, Pitch Perfect, Parachute) is an actor, singer, and director. Brittany joins the Armchair Expert to discuss commuting from middle school in Florida to a soap opera in New York, getting her orthodontic hardware removed for a cracker commercial, and entering recovery at sixteen. Brittany and Dax talk about rediscovering her love of performing through Pitch Perfect, the double standard for mothers behaving badly onscreen, and turning her own recovery into her directorial debut. Brittany explains why falling in love can become another addiction, how her relationship with her father has changed through Alzheimer’s, and why realizing nobody cares can be comforting.

Where can you listen?

Hi, I’m Dax Shepard, and I love talking to people. I am endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and I find people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. I invite you to join me as I explore other people’s stories. We will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment. What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training. I will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. I will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.
