Today's episode kicks off a brand new series on the show, which is all about leadership. Our first guest is Director of the Academy Awards-nominated Shrek 2, and Director of the ground-breaking animated movie, Sausage Party. It's none other than Conrad Vernon (who also happens to be the voice of Gingy from Shrek)!
