38E - Chloe Radcliffe

In this episode of *Never Not Funny: The Jimmy Pardo Podcast*, host Jimmy Pardo welcomes guest Chloe Radcliffe, a New York-based actress known for her role in a film with Will Arnett. The conversation begins with lighthearted banter about fashion, particularly a unique golf-inspired collar style, and transitions into a passionate defense of Danielle and Christine’s concerns about storms and wildfires in Southern California—highlighting the real dangers of post-fire flooding. Jimmy and guest Elliot express frustration with a past guest who mocked these fears as trivial. The episode then shifts to personal stories: Jimmy recounts his near-miss with *Star Search* and his early comedy career, while Chloe shares her unconventional path into acting—starting as a math major with no film background, discovering her passion through a serendipitous movie pitch. She reflects on her solitary childhood, creative projects like building a cardboard Barbie house, and her unique relationship with pop culture, including her deep love for *SpongeBob SquarePants*. The episode closes with a touching story about her high school prom with Evan Miller, a Black student in a predominantly white school, and the enduring connection with his family through heartfelt Christmas cards. The tone balances humor, vulnerability, and warmth.
