Casey Wilson has a lot on her mind and she isn’t afraid to share. In The Wreckage of My Presence, the actress, writer, director, and podcaster reflects on the joys and vagaries of modern-day womanhood, introduces the not-quite-typical family that made her who she is, and persuasively argues that lowbrow pop culture is the perfect lens through which to examine human nature.

Whether she’s extolling the virtues of eating in bed, processing the humiliation over her father’s late-in-life perm, mourning her mother’s passing, or revealing her patented method for keeping the mystery alive in a marriage, Wilson is witty, candid, and full of poignant and funny surprises. Deeper dives into some of her obsessions—self-help, nice guys, cool girls (not her), and how to receive visitors in the bath—are matched by touching meditations on female friendship, anger, grief, motherhood and identity, all delivered in Wilson’s distinctive voice.

Wilson stars in Showtime’s “Black Monday” and is currently shooting Apple’s “The Shrink Next Door” with Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, and Kathryn Hann. Her credits include the HBO series “Mrs. Fletcher,” the sitcoms “Marry Me” and “Happy Endings,” and “Saturday Night Live,” among others. She co-hosts the hit podcast “Bitch Sesh.” Wilson will be in conversation with “Happy Endings co-star and actor, writer, and comedian Adam Pally.
