[REBROADCAST FROM September 13, 2022] From the outside, Jenette McCurdy was living the life other young actors could only dream of. Cast as Sam in the very successful Nickelodeon show "iCarly," and later the spinoff series alongside Ariana Grande "Sam & Cat," McCurdy was a hero to a generation of kids. But behind the scenes, Jenette was coping with disordered eating, mental health issues, and her abusive mother who took her income, and insisted on monitoring her diaries, her emails, and her weight. After her mother's death, McCurdy was able to take a step back from acting, and really examine the toll child stardom took on her life. McCurdy joins us to discuss all of this in her new memoir, I'm Glad My Mom Died.
