Your favorite podcast hosts Jason A. Coombs and Samantha Tuozzolo , are back with another can’t miss episode of “Survival Jobs”, featuring Edwina Findley, the exceptionally talented, hilarious, actress who has been in our favorite films and television shows including The Wire, Brothers and Sisters, Fear the Walking Dead, The Power, Get Hard, If Loving You Is Wrong, Insidious 2 and so many more, over the last 20+ years! Edwina can currently be seen lighting up the screen as Sheila in Netflix’s new hit series The Residence, starring Uzo Aduba and produced by none other than Shondaland.
In this heartfelt and empowering conversation, Edwina opens up about how she manifested this dream role on April Fool’s Day 2022—yes, really! She shares what it’s like to act opposite Uzo Aduba, one of her longtime friends from the vibrant New York City theater scene, and why The Residence should be on everyone’s must-watch list.
The episode is packed with gems, including a fun game of Shondaland Trivia and a moment fans have been waiting for—Edwina finally clears up that lingering Wikipedia rumor about her being roommates with the legendary Viola Davis. She also gives listeners a sneak peek into her upcoming, highly anticipated book, The World Is Waiting For You, a guide to living boldly and manifesting your wildest dreams which is available for pre-order now wherever books are sold.
Kicking off the episode with a special mic check, Jason and Samantha take a moment to reflect on four years of building Survival Jobs from the ground up—reminiscing about their very first guest, three-time Tony Award nominee and friend of the pod, Robin De Jesús.
This episode is a celebration of resilience, artistry, and the magic that happens when preparation meets purpose. Don’t miss it! All eight episodes of The Residence are now streaming on Netflix
