COLLIDER: I really enjoy these standalone episodes to get more of them in their own little capacity.
I thought it was just brilliant in the way that you guys did it.
Which one was the one that you guys really had fun researching and figuring out?

ASHLY BURCH: Oh, for sure, mine was “Fugue.”
We went to Nashville for them to record a live orchestra.I cried the entire time I was there.
It was just such an amazing experience.

It’s something I feel really bonded to.
And just getting into the weeds of what is that workplace?
Because that’s what we wanted to explore in that episode is when your dream job becomes a reality.
So I get to help make that happen while actually at my dream job.
So that for me was just a really special experience.
And getting to research that and just be immersed in that world was amazing.
I’m from Nashville.
Did you guys record at the National Symphony?
BURCH: We were in this converted church somewhere in Nashville.
That’s super cool.
John, what was your favorite?
So we kind of came to this common language and figured out what everybody was saying.
It was just learning that aspect of it.
BURCH: So, how bad do you want those eyebrows?
Who would have thought?
KATIE MCELHENNEY: There were so many.
As the show hopefully demonstrates, gaming as an ecosystem just extends and connects to so many different spaces.
I know a lot of nerds.
And he’s a Black nerd, and that is such a specific culture.
is a conversation that so many Black people have.
So it’s truly ripped from the headlines of Javi’s life, a lot of that episode.
And so we felt like that was such an interesting community to get to explore and to highlight.
Like this is very reflective.
MCELHENNEY: Like a literal day in the life.
