What happens when the guy who performed in your bar becomes an international comedic juggernaut?

This week on Plus One with Lisa and Morgan, Rosie Carnahan-Darby shares her life of adventure with Flight of the Conchord’s star Rhys Darby.
Rosie chats about growing alongside her burgeoning stand up husband, how she fights decision fatigue, the real story behind a 30 year marriage and why her famous husband cannot be trusted with email.

Later, Rhys joins in to share an embarrassing Army story, why authenticity is a non negotiable and how he went all in to win over his dancing queen.
