Mo Collins is most recognized by the dozens of characters she played on MADTV, but she also has a very long resume that ranges from Parks and Rec to Six Feet Under to 40 Year Old Virgin. We talk about her strict Catholic upbringing in Minnesota, feeling stifled by a controling mother, to spreading her wings in acting and comedy, getting kicked out of an all girls Catholic College that mother went to, being the "black sheep" in her family, the origin of her nickname "Mo", to getting "let go" from Dudley Riggs Brave New Workshop where she was thriving, to working for Disney in Florida, she talks about and gets emotional about her "perfect sister" (the greatest person she knows), getting married and divorced, moving to LA, auditioning for MADTV with a killer Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer impression, having a son who now wants to be a fireman, wanting to be a grandmother, her belief in aliens and her alien sighting that she witnessed, getting a rare form of cancer called GIST, just a couple of years ago and how thats going, her appearance on Sober House on VH-1 to talk to Andy Dick, poker, meeting Ed Asner and doing a Mary Tyler Moore impression for him, her new husband and how they met online, and so much more!! Its a funny, poignant, important talk we had. I hope you'll listen and enjoy and please share with your friends. Thanks!!!
