***WINNER - 2025 Signal Award - Best Indie Podcast (individual episode)***

Episode 10 of Jett Road Studios Presents is the pilot for Dwelling with Lauren Weedman. Lauren is an actress who has recurring roles on shows like Hacks, Abbott Elementary, and Sirens. She is also an accomplished performer who is a host of The Moth, and has written two books. By almost any measure, Lauren Weedman has "made it," but that is not what this podcast is about. It is about her run-down, rent-controlled apartment building in Santa Monica, CA. Lauren has lived there for over 20 years, and has wanted to get out "since the day she moved in" with her ex-husband, who has since run off with the babysitter. As a single mother, Lauren tries to make her apartment feel like home, and yearns for connection with her neighbors.

In the pilot episode, Lauren talks to friend and fellow Moth host Brian Finkelstein, as she embarks on her quest to get to know the people in her building. She also sits down for a revealing conversation with her upstairs neighbor Ella Mové, who is about to embark on a journey of her own.
