From the New York Times, I'm Anna Martin.
This is Modern Love.
Every week we bring you stories and conversations inspired by the Modern Love column.
We talk about lovers, families, friends, and all the messiness of human relationships.
Today I talk to the actor, singer and comedian Bridget Everett on the Peabody Award winning HBO series Somebody Somewhere.
Now in its third and final season, Bridget stars as a 40something woman named Sam.
Sam has always loved to sing, but over time she's lost her self confidence and she's given up on music entirely.
It's only after Sam becomes best friends with a sweet, supportive man named Joel that she starts to build herself back up.
He even pushes her to sing again.
One of my favorite singers in the entire world is here with us tonight.
Sampire.
Come on up here.
No.
In this proud land, we grew up strong.
We were wanted all along.
The two of them become so close they even call each other from the toilet after eating a questionable hors d'oeuvre called St.
Louis sushi.
If you ever tell anybody what just happened to my asshole, I won't come over.
Oh, no, Joel.
