Jennifer Tilly is an actor who's dazzled in dozens of films, including her Oscar-nominated turn in Bullets Over Broadway. She's also voiced characters in everything from the Chucky franchise to Family Guy. But the most difficult thing she's ever done is appearing as herself on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She'll explain why, and tell us all about her championship poker skills.

Adam Savage is best known as one of the hosts of Mythbusters. Along with his co-host Jamie Hyneman, Adam tested hundreds of myths to determine their plausibility. He'll tell us about some of his favorite experiments and why the show was such an intense production. Catch Adam now on Tested.com.


Jennifer - The Beatles

Adam - Raymond Chandler

At LAist, we focus on what matters to our community: clear, fair, and transparent reporting that helps you make decisions with confidence and keeps powerful institutions accountable.

Your support for independent local news is critical. With federal funding for public media gone, LAist faces a $1.7 million yearly shortfall. Speaking frankly, how much reader support we receive now will determine the strength of this reliable source of local information now and for years to come.

This work is only possible with community support. Every investigation, service guide, and story is made possible by people like you who believe that local news is a public good and that everyone deserves access to trustworthy local information.

That’s why we’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else.

Thank you for understanding how essential it is to have an informed community and standing up for free press.
