Jordan Stephens and Zawe Ashton share everything they know about how they came into the world, the silence and the screams, and the surprising similarities between their birth stories. They talk about how their birth impacted them in adulthood, and whether certain traits can be linked back to those first moments of breathing life. And Zawe shares her two most embarrassingly awful auditions, so if you’ve ever wondered if some stories about acting really are that extreme and awkward then, yep, they are.
