-Rachel Brosnahan, hello.
Thank you so much for being on our show.
I really, really appreciate this.
Thank you so much. -Thank you for having me.
Thanks. -It's nice to see your face.
I want to see your sweater. What's on your sweater?
-My sweater says, "Home is where the love is."
-I love that. -Thank you.
-That's a beautiful sweater.
Where is your home right now?
Where are you? -I'm in New York.
-Who are you there with in your apartment?
-I'm here with my husband and our New York family.
So our two best friends.
We've been here for 23 days.
And our pups are here, which is --
-How many dogs do you have? -They're very confused.
I have two. And you have one.
-I have one dog who's behind me,
almost can't even tell which is the pillow and which is my dog.
This is the pillow, and that's my dog.
She's exhausted. -I can tell.
-From sleeping -- -Hi.
-From sleeping earlier today.
She has to take another nap. -[ Laughs ]
-Say hi. Can you see? That's Nikki.
-Oh, wow. Hi, Nik.
-And Winston, come here.
-Oh, no, Nik and Winston.
These are great names.
You're a beautiful dog.
Oh, my gosh. -That's the confused,
right there, that we get.
That's the very same.
-Was Nik doing yoga? -Oh, yeah.
We've been practicing family yoga.
[ Laughter ]
Nikki and Winston and I are a little bit new,
but we've been learning some moves.
Do you guys ever do yoga together?
-Me and -- me and my dog?
-Yeah.
-Oh, sorry. "Yeah," like it's a thing?
No, I've never done yoga with my dog, no.
You know, my wife and kids I've done yoga with, but not my dog.
I've never seen it before.
-I mean, you want to learn a move?
-Sure, I could totally learn a move.
-It's like the most obvious one.
Here, do you have some space over there?
-Not really, but I can make space.
-Yeah, come on.
We'll show you our very best downward dog.
-[ Laughs ] A downward dog with a dog.
All right. -Come here, Nik.
-Let me see. -All right. Come here.
-Come here, Gary. -Are you ready?
-Come on. Come on, Gary. -Oh.
-Right here. -Did you say Gary?
-Yeah, Gary. Sit.
All right, good. All right. We're doing what you're doing.
-Are you ready? -Yeah.
-Now, Nik, downward dog.
Oh. Close.
-Gary, downward dog.
Gary. -Downward dog.
-Downward dog. -Downward dog.
-Gary, down -- Down dog. -Down dog.
-Down dog. Gary? [ Whistling ]
-Gary's thinking about it. -Come here, you.
-I don't know if Gary's -- -You want to try? Come here.
-I think Gary's still sleeping.
-[ Laughs ] -Good job, Gary.
Gary, give me your paw. Yes, that's a good girl.
I'm getting a butt to the camera right now.
-Very indecent, sorry. [ Laughter ]
-Well, I'll work on that.
-Yeah, we're going to work on that too.
-All right, we'll work on that, we'll get it done.
[ Laughter ]
-Thank you for indulging us.
-The thing that you're doing on -- is it Instagram?
Healthcare Heroes? -Yeah.
-#HealthcareHeroes. -Yeah.
-I want to say, that was really cool what you're doing.
And when did you start that?
-You know, I started it, I think really quickly,
maybe within a day or two after we self-isolated
because, you know,
there was so much information going around.
There still is every single day,
and we were hearing to stay inside,
and I started seeing a lot of health care workers
talking about why we should stay inside,
and specifically, that they are at work
and that's their job for us,
and so, we should stay inside for them,
and it felt like it was important to be able to see
the faces behind the grand idea of health care workers
and get to know them and their stories,
and people started sending really beautiful stories
about their brothers and sisters and parents and neighbors
who were health care workers.
And if we're not going to stay inside for ourselves
and for our friends and family, putting a face to those names,
hopefully, was going to help us stay inside for them.
-Yeah, that's great, by the way.
It's #HealthcareHeroes.
And some amazing stories
of the people out there on the front lines.
I love it. -All over the world.
I mean, people in Iran and Turkey and Brazil.
It was a really important reminder
that we're in this as a global community.
-Yeah, you're right.
Every list of what shows to binge watch,
if you're indoors, what should you look at,
the number one is your show,
"Marvelous Mrs. Maisel."
And I was just wondering -- and I do agree with that list,
by the way, it is a fantastic show --
what are you watching?
-My isolation family and I watched four full seasons
of "Survivor" in the last 23 days.
-My favorite show! -What?
-That's my favorite show. I love "Survivor."
-How have we never talked about this?
I love "Survivor."
-I love "Survivor"!
-Have you seen every season?
-Every single season, every single --
I have my favorites. I think I'm one episode out
of the new season right now.
-I am one behind, so we can't talk about it.
-You are one behind. We won't say anything, good.
-No. Oh, my God, how did we not know this?
-Oh, my God, I love that you love "Survivor."
-Would you ever be on "Survivor"?
-No, I couldn't hack it. -Why?
-I couldn't hack it mentally.
It's such a -- I think that game --
I think that show is genius.
I think it's a mental game, it's a physical game,
but it's also, like, you've got to leave
that baggage behind, whatever happened at camp,
and you got to go and do this,
and you got to whatever, get the puzzle pieces
and think -- you got to mentally --
and then you go back to the drama.
-Yeah, it's insane.
-It's a brilliant game.
-It's been a really nice escape and it's been so fun
to see some of our favorite players from the past.
I'm -- I love that you love "Survivor."
-Oh, love that --
Would you ever go on "Survivor"?
-I... -Wow!
-I would love to, I would love to,
but I feel like,
I think I have to wait until my career is in the toilet.
Like, one day, if my career is fully down the toilet,
then the first thing I'm going to do is sign up for "Survivor."
-But what if it's like a thing
with one of your favorites or something?
Like, one of your favorite...
-I don't know. You know, I think the whole thing
about "Survivor," is that you learn so much
about yourself, and maybe I don't want to know.
[ Laughter ]
-Keep the charade going.
And maybe I definitely don't want other people to know.
I feel like I'd be a really ruthless "Survivor" player.
It's a game. Like, I --
It's a game, anything goes in the game.
-Yes.
-But it's always so fascinating to see
how people take how people are in the game
and apply it to their real lives.
I'm obsessed, I love that you're obsessed.
-We ask everyone who comes on our show
what charity that they would like to talk about.
And what is Covenant House, for people that don't know,
and why are you working with them?
-So Covenant House is an organization
that supports young people overcoming homelessness
across six countries and 31 cities in the U.S.,
Canada, and Latin America.
And they provide vital and life changing services
like safe shelter, clean clothes, hot meal,
but also a path towards the brightest future
that these kids can dream of.
They have GED services and an outreach van,
job training, job readiness, mental health services,
medical services and so much more.
They change people's lives, and as you can imagine,
so many people have been affected
by the volume of this crisis, and young people who are
overcoming homelessness at Covenant House
are some of our most vulnerable population.
You know, we're hearing "stay home" right now,
but what does that mean if you're a young person
experiencing homelessness and what does that mean
if you're a young person on your own?
And so, Covenant House is doing everything
that they can to accommodate the volume of young people
who have been or are newly finding themselves homeless.
They're dealing with an unprecedented volume
of job loss, as is the rest of the country.
And they're trying to accommodate by creating
isolation floors and rooms in all of their locations
to deal with sick or symptomatic young people,
and they just need additional support.
So anything at all that you can give to help,
it makes such a great difference,
and thank you from the bottom of my heart.
-That is so cool that you are working with them.
I love Covenant House and what they do.
Thank you so much for coming on.
I really -- I know this is like --
This is so -- it's odd, but it's very kind of,
it makes me feel better to see another face and to talk to you,
and hopefully, the next time we talk,
we'll be in the studio or something.
-Yeah, I would love that.
Stay well and stay safe,
and everyone out there as well, thank you.
-Rachel Brosnahan, thank you, pal.
Thank you so much. Bye. -Talk to you soon.
