Hey it’s Arroe. This is Play It Forward. A look at the unexpected changes endured by entertainers, writers, camera people and all others affected but not infected by the global invasion of the Coronavirus.
Real people. Real stories. The struggle to Play It Forward.
Episode 153 with Jen Lancaster.
Her new book is titled Welcome to the United States of Anxiety
She’s no stranger to this monster. Jen has been diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and still has nightmares about her waitressing job from college—and she realizes that the world around her is just as stressed out as she is.

This new book is Lancaster’s meditation on the state of the world and why it routinely feels like the end of days. To be fair, there are a lot of things to be on edge about: a global pandemic, climate change, the glamorous but fake lifestyles promoted on social media, political uncertainty and how medical science keeps discovering new things that can kill us.
That’s Play It Forward. You can listen to the full conversations with these artists on three different podcasts. Like Its Live, Unplugged and Totally Uncut and View from the Writing Instrument found on all digital platforms.
