April 18, 2026 · 13 min

Show notes

This week, we're dropping an episode from our sister podcast, "We Regret To Inform You: The Rejection Podcast".

In this podcast series, we talk about the mountain of rejections famous and successful people had to overcome and how they did it.


In this episode, we talk about the golden piece of advice Rue McClanahan’s mother gave her when she was told she’d never make it in television.
