The Staffa Corner Podcast
Episode 67
Guest: Kerry Frances
On this episode of The Staffa Corner Podcast, we’re joined by actress and singer Kerry Frances for a candid conversation about navigating the modern entertainment industry. We dive into her new projects, the Netflix film Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery and her new single, “You and Me and Everything.”
Kerry shares invaluable insights, from how classical acting training builds a foundation but often fails to teach the business itself, to why kindness on set is a career-long investment. We get real about the unglamorous side of the industry, the “self-tape factory,” the emotional toll of “release depression,” and trusting your gut when deal terms glitter. The conversation also takes a hard look at Hollywood’s shifting landscape, from streaming consolidation to the cultural importance of mid-budget films. Finally, Kerry opens up about the personal joy that inspired her new single and offers smart, actionable advice for championing dog rescue year-round.
If you care about the craft of acting, the business that sustains it, and the hope that keeps artists brave, you’ll feel this one. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves Knives Out, and leave a review telling us which insight changed how you see the industry.
