episode 29 | chyler leigh
Odd squad, this week we have Chyler fucking Leigh. Yes. Lexie Grey. Alex Danvers. Kat Landry. The woman has been on our screens, in our feelings, and probably at the center of at least one of your emotional spirals. This week on Odd Woman Out, Chyler joins Tutz—and we’re bringing a little underdog energy to the group chat. “Sometimes the underdog wins.” Honestly? Put it on a shirt. Make it your lock screen. Send it to the friend who’s currently letting one rejection convince her she should give up. Because it is VERY easy to look at someone’s career and see the credits. Grey’s Anatomy. Supergirl. The Way Home. You see the characters, the fans, the moments everyone remembers. But this week, pull up a chair for Chyler Leigh. Come for the woman behind some of your favorite characters. Stay for the reminder that you do not need to count yourself out just because someone else already did. Your timeline is allowed to be messy. You’re allowed to want more. And you’re absolutely allowed to enjoy your moment when it finally comes. Sometimes the underdog wins, babe. Give yourself a chance to be her.

episode 28 | from the odd archives: bellamy young
ONE YEAR OF BEING ODD: Bellamy Young Is Back, Bitches! ONE YEAR. A LOT OF BADASS WOMEN. ZERO INTEREST IN BEING NORMAL. Holy shit. Odd Woman Out is officially ONE YEAR OLD. And to celebrate 365 days of unfiltered conversations, iconic women, and embracing everything that makes us a little different, we're taking it all the way back to where the chaos began. Our first-ever guest. The original Odd Woman. The one and only BELLLAMY YOUNG. That's right. We're re-releasing the episode that started it all, and trust us, this conversation hits just as hard a year later. Host Samantha Dawn Tuozzolo (aka Tutz) sits down with the woman behind Scandal's legendary Mellie Grant to talk about the shit women are actually dealing with: body image, self-worth, Hollywood's ridiculous beauty standards, and the exhausting pressure to have it all figured out. Spoiler alert: Nobody has it all figured out. Not even Mellie fucking Grant. Bellamy gets vulnerable about learning to love herself, finding confidence in an industry obsessed with perfection, and why meditation and staying true to herself have been game changers. And yes, WE TALK SCANDAL. From playing one of television's most complicated and powerful women to the lessons Mellie taught her about ambition, resilience, and owning your voice, Bellamy gives us a look at the woman behind the character. But she's not stopping at Hollywood. We get into her self-produced sci-fi novel, The Aetherion Code: Book One — The Spark, created with fellow actor and writer Faye Masterson, and why women need to stop waiting for permission to create the things they want to see in the world. Plus, we're talking Broadway dreams, theater girl energy, supporting other women without making it a competition, and why being the odd woman out might actually be the best thing that ever happened to you. Because here's the thing: Fitting in is overrated. Being yourself? That's the whole fucking point. One year ago, Bellamy helped us kick off a show about women who refuse to shrink themselves to make other people comfortable. And after a year of incredible guests and conversations, that mission hasn't changed one bit. To the OG Odd Squad, the new girls, and everyone who's ever felt like they didn't quite fit the mold—this one's for you. We're one year older, a little louder, and just getting started. The body image bullshit: Loving yourself when the world keeps telling you to change The Scandal of it all: Mellie Grant, Shonda Rhimes, and playing one of TV's most iconic women Making your own damn opportunities: Bellamy's sci-fi novel The Aetherion Code Broadway baby: Theater roots, big dreams, and what's still on her bucket list Being the odd one out: Why your quirks, differences, and imperfections are actually your greatest assets Connect with Bellamy Young: Book: The Aetherion Instagram: @bellamyyoung Connect with Tutz: Personal Site Instagram Recorded at Welcome to Times Square Studio.

episode 27 | jackie hoffman
This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with the one and only Jackie Hoffman—and obviously, we are getting into ALL of it. Broadway. Feud. Being pigeonholed. Going viral over losing an Emmy. And what happens when an industry decides it knows exactly who you are before you get the chance to show them anything else. Jackie gets into the now-iconic moment she lost the Emmy for Feud and her reaction immediately went viral. We talk about her five Broadway shows, the characters people have come to know and love her for, and the flip side of being really, really good at a very specific thing: everyone wants you to keep doing it. But Jackie wants MORE. She opens up about being pigeonholed into one type of character, wanting the opportunity to show a completely different side of herself, and why—even when the industry tries to put her in a box—she refuses to become anyone other than exactly who she is. We get into: • THAT viral Emmy loss moment• Feud and what happened when the internet got hold of her reaction• Five Broadway shows and the career that came with them• Being known for one very specific type of character• What it feels like when being great at something becomes a box• The roles she wishes people would let her play• Why she wants to show audiences a completely different side of herself• Staying true to who you are—even when the industry wants something else• And obviously, a little Tutz + Jackie chaos Come for the viral Emmy moment. Stay for Jackie Hoffman refusing to be put in a box. Because being the odd woman out sometimes means letting people think they know exactly who you are—and then proving there’s a hell of a lot more to you.

episode 26 | kate rockwell
This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Kate Rockwell—and we are getting into the very wild road that somehow led from reality TV to Broadway to Mean Girls and motherhood. Before Broadway, there was Grease: You’re the One That I Want!—yes, THAT reality competition show. Then came Legally Blonde, where Kate made her Broadway debut understudying Elle Woods and basically got thrown straight into the deep end. And then, of course, there’s Mean Girls. Kate gets into how Karen Smith came into her life, what it was like working with Tina Fey, and why Tina is the ultimate girl’s girl. We talk about women supporting women, finding your place in this industry, and building a career that can actually grow with you. Because somewhere between eight shows a week and raising kids, Kate has figured out that you don’t have to choose between being a mom and being ambitious as hell. We get into: • The absolute fever dream that was Grease: You’re the One That I Want!• Making her Broadway debut understudying Elle Woods in Legally Blonde• How Mean Girls and Karen Smith came into her life• Why Tina Fey is the ultimate girl’s girl• What happens when the role everyone knows you for changes everything• Juggling motherhood, Broadway, and a career that doesn’t stop just because you have kids• Why women supporting women MATTERS• And obviously, a little Tutz + Kate chaos Come for the Broadway tea. Stay for the reminder that you can be a mom, have a career, want MORE—and not apologize for any of it.

episode 25 | orfeh
This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Orfeh—and we are OBSESSED. We’re talking rocker Orfeh, Broadway Orfeh, and the Orfeh who refused to let anyone put her in a box. Before Broadway, she was a rocker. Then came Legally Blonde, where she clawed her way to Paulette and proved that being weird, loud, different, and completely yourself can actually be the secret sauce. Orfeh gets VERY real about the bubble the industry has put her in, why she’s determined to break out of it, and what it looks like to say, “Actually… I can do way more than you think I can.” Because being “odd” isn’t something to fix—it’s something to lean into. We get into: • Her rocker days before Broadway • How she clawed her way to Paulette • The industry bubble—and breaking OUT of it • Why being odd is actually the whole point • Reinventing yourself when people think they’ve figured you out • The Unfortunately Named Orfeh and Screeching Whore • And a LOT of Tutz + Orfeh chaos Come for the Broadway tea. Stay for Orfeh reminding us that being yourself is always the move. This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day.

episode 24 | jenn colella
About This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Jenn Colella and… this one is FUN. We’re talking Come From Away. We’re talking SUFFS. We’re talking about Jenn’s rock star era before Broadway was even part of the plan. And somewhere along the way, Jenn becomes obsessed with saying “Tutz,” so naturally things go off the rails. Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio, we get into the career moments everyone knows—but also the person behind them. Jenn takes us back to Come From Away, originating Captain Beverley Bass, and what it was like being part of a show that became so much bigger than anyone could have predicted. Then we get into SUFFS—because obviously you cannot sit down with Jenn Colella and NOT talk about women using their voices. We talk about standing up for yourself, standing up for the people around you, and knowing when it’s time to stop worrying about being liked and just say the thing. We get into: • Jenn’s rock star days (we needed answers)• How she found her way to Broadway• Come From Away and the insanity of watching that show take off• Becoming Captain Beverley Bass• SUFFS and being surrounded by a LOT of powerful women• Standing up for yourself when it would be easier not to• Standing up for other people when they need someone in their corner• Why sometimes you just have to say the damn thing• Jenn saying “Tutz” approximately 400 times• Us laughing… a lot• And the beginning of what can only be described as the Jenn Colella presidential campaign This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day. Come for the Broadway stories. Stay for Jenn Colella saying “Tutz.” Jenn Colella for President. Follow @oddwomanshowFollow @SammyTutz Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

episode 23 | ann harada
About This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with Broadway icon Ann Harada—and we are getting into ALL of it. From originating Christmas Eve in Avenue Q to entering the wonderfully unhinged world of Schmigadoon!, Ann has built a career by doing something that sounds simple but definitely isn't: knowing who she is and refusing to pretend to be anyone else. Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio, we go back to Avenue Q and talk about the role that changed everything. Ann gets candid about playing a character that she personally felt comfortable with—even when some people in the Asian community didn't feel the same way. We talk representation, stereotypes, changing conversations, and what happens when something can feel completely okay to you and completely NOT okay to someone else. Because two things can be true at once. Then there's Schmigadoon!—the TV series, the musical, the comedy, the chaos—and Ann takes us behind the scenes of getting to live in that deliciously weird world. And yes... we go there. Ann opens up about her dispute with September L. Davis, what happened, and what she learned from finding herself in a situation she never exactly planned on being in. Through all of it, Ann is refreshingly Ann: funny, opinionated, self-aware, and completely uninterested in becoming the version of herself somebody else thinks she should be. We get into: • The Avenue Q audition that changed everything• Becoming the original Christmas Eve—and everything that came with it• Representation, stereotypes, and being comfortable with something other people weren't• Why you can hear someone else's perspective without pretending it's your own• Staying true to yourself when people have opinions about who you should be• Going from Schmigadoon! on Apple TV+ to Schmigadoon! onstage• What really goes into making that ridiculously fun world work• Her dispute with September L. Davis—and yes, we talk about it• Navigating uncomfortable conversations without losing your sense of humor• Why Ann Harada is still doing things her own damn way This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day. If you've ever wondered whether you need everyone to agree with you in order to trust yourself... you don't. Sometimes being the odd woman out is kind of the whole point.

episode 22 | jessica frances dukes
About This week on Odd Woman Out, Tutz sits down with the wildly talented Jessica Frances Dukes—and trust me, this conversation goes places. You know her as Special Agent Maya Miller on Ozark, you've probably seen her commanding the stage in Broadway's Trouble in Mind, and now she's starring in the gritty new series The Westies. But before all of that? There was a little girl with an incredible imagination, imaginary friends, and absolutely no idea where that creativity would eventually take her. Recorded at the Welcome to Times Square Studio, we get into why imagination isn't something you grow out of—it's the thing that keeps artists alive. We talk about building a career one experience at a time, the years she spent honing her craft in places like Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, why every role (even the ones nobody sees) matters, and what it really feels like when years of hard work finally start paying off. It's funny, honest, unexpectedly emotional, and the kind of conversation that reminds you your path doesn't have to look like anyone else's. We get into: • The imaginary friends that sparked her creativity • Why protecting your imagination is a superpower • Her journey from regional theatre—including Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company—to Broadway's Trouble in Mind • Landing Ozark and what playing Maya Miller taught her • Starring in the new series The Westies • The reality of building a career that lasts instead of chasing overnight success • What she's still learning about herself as an artist • Why the best opportunities usually show up when you least expect them This episode is powered by WelcomeToTimesSquare.com — the billboard where you can be a star for a day. If you've ever questioned whether all the little steps are actually leading somewhere, this episode is your reminder that every single experience is part of the story.
