Host Kevin Factor talks with actor, director and entrepreneur Mary Stuart Masterson. The interview took place in his backyard in August, 2018 – while they were cleaning mushrooms they had hunted with her children earlier that day – and covers a wide range of topics: parenting; acting; relationships; women in the entertainment industry; the "Me Too" movement; feminism; her non-profit, Stoackadeworks, in Kingston, NY that is training a generation of industry technicians to bring high-paying quality film and television industry jobs upstate; how her production company, Quality Pictures, is redefining the work-to-life ratio in the industry; and her secret method for rehydrating dried mushrooms using a coffee filter.
