Episode Details

Alison Arngrim, once typecast as the bratty Nellie Oleson, is now a global powerhouse—selling memoirs, commanding sold-out cabarets in Paris, and hosting her own podcast. After a whirlwind festival tour and a surprise hit one-woman show born from a last-minute gig, she’s proving child stars can rewrite their stories. She candidly shares the industry’s hidden pressures and the bizarre backlash she still faces decades later—from festival founders too scared to meet her to being hit with an orange soda in a parade. With indie films, a cookbook, and a second memoir in the works, Arngrim isn’t just surviving her past; she’s owning it and thriving.
