Jeff Daniels on the Enemy Within

Very few actors have the range to pull off "Dumb and Dumber's" slack jawed Harry Dunne, while mastering the arc of moral giants like Atticus Finch on stage or Ronald Reagan in the upcoming film "Reykjavík." Jeff Daniels is that actor. He's played iconic character driven roles like "The Newsroom's" Will McAvoy and delivered countless monologues that embrace the better angels of our nature. And now, he's playing guitar and writing songs that hold up a mirror to the human experience. He joins Nicolle in this episode to talk about the trajectory of his career, choosing a life in Michigan over Hollywood, and the lack of a national moral compass in the Trump era. Plus: a special acoustic guitar performance.
