Lamorne Morris and Hannah Simone

Go behind the scenes of Apartment 4D with the crew who called it home for seven incredible seasons. Each week, real-life friends Hannah Simone (Cece) and Lamorne Morris (Winston Bishop) rewatch their Emmy-nominated series, New Girl, and reveal the never-before-told behind-the-scenes escapades. Speaking of besties - they're inviting all of the loft's favorite guest stars, writers, and directors to share their adventures on set.

Welcome to Our Show

We're BACK! YAY! With a Christmas episode?!? Why not! In this New Girliest of plots, the whole gang heads to the airport together because everyone has flights on the same day (which is totally normal of course). Jess gets nervous about Ryan's rich English family. Winston drops classic quotes on 'em. Pervert Santa is there. And so is Billy Eichner!

411: LAXmas

Hello, Mess Around Listeners! We want to share a new show you might enjoy, Viva Betty: An Ugly Betty Rewatch Podcast! 
 
About the show: Ugly Betty was more than just a show - it was a revolution. Bold, heartfelt, and unapologetically real, it gave us characters that shattered stereotypes and told stories that mattered, putting a working-class Latino family, the immigrant experience, and LGBTQ+ stories front and center. 
 
Now, Ana Ortiz and Mark Indelicato—aka Hilda and Justin—are sitting down to rewatch the show that changed their lives and ours. With fresh eyes and zero filter, they’re revisiting every messy moment, iconic outfit, and groundbreaking storyline, one episode at a time.
 
This isn’t just a nostalgia trip. It’s a love letter to the show that made being different feel like a superpower. Pull up a chair, there’s room at the table for you!
