Podcast of the Day: Kristen Schaal

Who is Kristen Schaal, you might ask? Well, if you’re asking that question, you obviously haven’t seen an episode of FOTC yet, and for that, I shame you. However, if you don’t know, I suppose I’ll tell you a little about her.
Schaal plays Mel on the HBO show, the obsessed fan of Jemaine and Bret, who is definitely bordering on stalker in every episode. She is also married to Doug, which makes things a lot more awkward and complicated.
Moving on, I’d like to say that Kristen Schaal is not like her character in real life. The proof? The HBO podcast. Kristen was asked questions like “When did you decide you wanted to become an actress?”, “What was your first experience on set like?”, and “What was your most embarrassing moment?”
Things you find out during the podcast: Her voice for Mel is her real voice. She does think that the boys are adorable, but not in that creepy way, and she had an allergic reaction one day. Interesting stuff. She honestly cracks me up even when she just says serious or even neutral stuff. Great.
