My guest today is Jessica Regan. You may know Jessica as the cocreator and cohost of excellent The Best Pick Podcast, along with Tom Salinksky and John Dorney. She's also an  award winning, RADA trained actor, who's appeared on stage in the West End, New York and  LA and on screen, with roles in BBC's hilarious Ill Behaviour, Call the Midwife,   Silent Witness and Doctors.  You may recognize her voice from the video games Witcher 3 and Assassin's Creed Valhalla. And if all that wasn't impressive enough, she's recently added "author" to her resume. Best Pick: A Journey through Film History and the Academy Awards will be released this February from  Rowman and Littlefield.

What you might not know is that Jessica is also a MASSIVE Quentin Tarantino fan. In fact, when she was a guest on the quiz show Celebrity Mastermind, her  specialist subject was Quentin Tarantino. I'm so pleased that she's be able to join me.

This was a wonderful conversation  that went in a number of different directions. We talk about her history with Tarantino films. We talk about Tarantino's relationships with actors as well as his complicated legacy including his treatment of Uma Thurman and his relationship with Harvey Weinstein.
