‘Modern Love' Podcast: How to Keep Love Alive, With Rob Delaney of ‘Dying for Sex'
Hosted by Anna Martin Produced by Reva GoldbergEmily LangDavis LandChristina DjossaAmy Pearl and Sara Curtis Edited by Jen Poyant and Davis Land Engineered by Sonia Herrero Original music by Dan PowellElisheba IttoopMarion LozanoRowan Niemisto and Carole Sabouraud 'It doesn't matter that your partner's a grown-up, it doesn't matter that they were self-sufficient before they met you, and could survive without you. When you're with them, you must tend to that person and that relationship.' When we meet Rob Delaney's character, 'Neighbor Guy,' in FX's limited series 'Dying for Sex,' he's scarfing down a burrito in an elevator, dripping food on his face and the floor. But Delaney's performance reveals that under Neighbor Guy's messy exterior is a man capable of deep vulnerability and empathy. 'Dying for Sex' follows a woman named Molly, played by Michelle Williams, who is dying of cancer and desperate to experience sexual pleasure before it's too late. At first, Molly thinks Neighbor Guy is disgusting, but the two soon discover they make sense together, sexually and emotionally. Williams and Delaney received Emmy nominations for their roles. Today, Delaney tells host Anna Martin why exposing the messy and painful parts of ourselves to other people can be rewarding and hilarious. He talks about tending his own relationship and reads a Modern Love essay about a couple who decides to try some role play to avoid getting too comfortable with each other.

Rob Delaney joins Being Heumann film
Rob Delaney has joined the cast of Being Heumann. The Dying For Sex actor is the latest star announced for the civil rights drama movie, alongside Ballroom actress Madeline Delp, and The Piano Lesson star Ray Fisher. Mark Ruffalo, Ruth Madeley, and Dylan O'Brien will also appear in the film, which is based on the memoir Being Heumann: An Unrepentant Memoir of a Disability Rights, by disability activist Judy Heumann. According to Deadline, Delaney will portray Congressman Miller in the Apple movie. The character is said to be inspired by George Miller, who supported Heumann in her disability rights battle in the 1970s. Disability advocate Delp is to portray disability rights activist Kitty Cone and Fisher will appear as Chuck Jackson, a member of the Black Panther Party. Heumann - who was left paralysed from polio aged 18 months old - is best known for leading a 28-day sit in at the US Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW) in San Francisco in 1977. She led more than 100 people to take over the building, to protest that the Rehabilitation Act's Section 504 - which protects qualified individuals from discrimination based on their disability - should be enforced. The Act had been signed in 1973, but Section 504 had not been enforced, but the protest resulted in the signing of Section 504, meaning all federal spaces were accessible. President Jimmy Carter had vowed to enforce Section 504 after he was elected president in 1976, but Joseph Califano, Carter's Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, then said he wanted more time to review it, sparking the protest. Heumann previously told the BBC: "We were very, very concerned that they were going to make drastic changes to the rules. "We had been fighting very hard for many years to get the rules [to] where they were. So we said, if the regulations were not signed by a certain day there would be demonstrations around the country in nine or 10 cities." Madeley will take on the role of Heumann - who died in 2023, aged 75 - and Ruffalo will portray Califano. Sian Heder will direct the Apple Studios movie.

Sharon Horgan adds a new HBO comedy series to her to-do list
Rob Delaney and Sharon Horgan in Season 4 of "Catastrophe." Ed Miller/Courtesy of Amazon Prime Video Advertisement There's a bit of a throughline in these projects; Horgan has perfected a certain kind of acerbic, bitingly funny yet well-meaning woman confronting men, desire, and middle age. There aren't many people on TV with a better-honed ability to deliver an absolutely withering comeback. You'd hate to say something stupid in front of a Horgan character, but you'll never get tired of watching other characters run into the buzzsaw of her wit. No additional casting or release details are available yet on the new HBO project, but if you're looking for another Horgan project to watch in the meantime, try the comedy ' Lisa Weidenfeld can be reached at
