When Martha Plimpton agreed to host the Leonard Lopate Show this week, we already knew we were in for a treat. But when it came time for a Please Explain segment on the craft, psychology, and cognitive science of acting, Martha gave us all a lesson. Listen here for all of her advice and insight!

You'll also hear the voices of Shonni Enelow, Assistant Professor of Drama and Performance Studies at Fordham University, and Thalia Goldstein, Assistant Professor of Psychology at Pace University.
