This season on my podcast, Baring It All with Call Me Adam, I am spotlighting My Entertainment Idols.

Today, I am catching up with My Entertainment Idol Actress, Author & 5-Time Golden Globe Nominee Marilu Henner who is getting to ready to return to the New York stage to star in Michael Griffo's smash hit Off Broadway play, Pen Pals, alongside her lifelong friend, Actress Brooke Adams.

In this interview, Marilu is once again Baring It All with Call Me Adam, but this time around she talks about:

• How Pen Pals came into her life
• The moments that shaped her view of Bernie
• A Pen Pals date challenge that put her superhero memory to the test
• And so much more you won’t want to miss

Pen Pals is the remarkable story of two friends that unfolds over 5 decades. With a rotating cast of renowned actors, every 2 weeks, no two performances are the same.

Bernie and Mags are best friends who live in two different countries, yet they’ve never met. They’ve been pen pals for over 50 years, since they were teenagers, sharing every aspect of their lives with each other. They’ve told each other things they would never tell another soul. While Bernie lives in New Jersey and Mags is in England, these 2 women are closer to each other than anyone else in their life.

Marilu (and Brooke Adams) will be starring in Pen Pals for TWO WEEKS ONLY, February 4-15, 2026 at the Daryl Roth DR2 Theatre in NYC. Click Here for tickets!
