Join award-winning actor John Turturro for a conversation with Happy Sad Confused’s Josh Horowitz about his Emmy-nominated performance in Apple TV+’s hit series Severance, including clips from the show.
Following a team of office workers at a mysterious company whose employees have undergone a procedure that surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives, Severance is one of the biggest hits of the season — a brilliant dystopian vision of work and corporate power. The gripping new season is being hailed as one of the most thought-provoking shows of the year, and as the ultra-devoted severed employee Irving Bailiff — for which he has been nominated for a 2025 Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama — John Turturro delivers a knockout performance.
Alongside clips from the series, hear Turturro tell Horowitz the story of Bailiff’s invention, his moving romance with Burt (Christopher Walken), what’s next for Severance, stories from the set, and more in this live taping of the Happy Sad Confused podcast.
Recorded Aug 13, 2025 at The 92nd Street Y, New York.
