This episode of NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING is all about breakthrough stars. We'll focus on film and television debuts and first-timers who struck gold, because if there's anything we’re certain that Hollywood loves, it's someone who's younger and more talented than the last young and talented person.

Guests: Actress and singer Jasmine Cephas Jones (“Hamilton,” “Blindspotting”); writer and actor Tommy Dewey (“Casual,” “Saturday Night”); and writer Liz Hannah (“The Post,” “The Girl from Plainville”)

NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING is a production of The Black List and LAist Studios, in partnership with The Ankler. This episode is presented by FX.

Support for this podcast is also brought to you by Gordon and Dona Crawford, who believe that quality journalism makes L.A. a better place to live.

New episodes premiere Tuesdays and you can listen to the show on the radio at LAist 89.3 on weekends.
