Mandy is gone, so Mandy has invited her friend Rory O’Malley to sit in and dish on The Rehearsal. 

The show is bonkers, possibly offensive, and pokes at all the social anxieties — big and small — many of us carry around on our backs. It’s right in line with writer-director Nathan Fielder’s brand of comedy, and Mandy and Rory dive in deep this week.

Oh, who is Rory, you ask? The biggest thing you need to know about Rory is that he plays the perfectly-named character of “Peter” in Mandy’s upcoming film Jess Plus None, premiering in London in March. He’s also been nominated for a Tony for his work as Elder McKinley in The Book of Mormon on Broadway and did a healthy stint in Hamilton, taking over the Groff’s part as King George III. You can hear his dulcet tones in the animated series Central Park on Apple TV+ and Chicago Party Aunt on Netflix right now. Go ahead, learn more about Rory right here. We dare you.
