Hosts Jeff Meacham (Black•ish) and Joel Johnstone (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) love Tom Cruise. They are inspired by Tom Cruise. But they’ve never met Tom Cruise. So, they’re going to bring on some celebrity guests who have. This weekly podcast will feature incredible, personal stories about meeting the legendary star, and maybe one of those stories will lead Jeff and Joel to The Man himself so that one day, they will have stories of their own. Stories of meeting Tom Cruise. It’s not… impossible.

For this final episode of Season One of Meeting Tom Cruise, Jeff is thinking about the importance of underwear in the Cruise filmography. We’re sorry. We answer the question, “What have you learned this season?” (Hint: We have learned nothing this season.) And as our guest, we have the woman who broke open the doors for Public Displays of Tom Cruise Affection; the woman who turned Meeting Tom Cruise into an art form; the woman who will always and forever know him simply as Tommy. We are honored, thrilled – and clearly a little giddy – to have with us: the great Rosie O’Donnell.
