"When I meet them down the street at one of their favorite diners on a rainy Monday afternoon in November, the two are squished next to each other in a booth, with Patinkin, 72, raving about how living in the Columbia University neighborhood makes him feel youthful. "You have all of these young people, and if you don't look in the mirror, you're their age," he says."
"Patinkin and Grody behave at the diner the same as they do on their wildly popular TikTok and Instagram accounts; the same as they do on Seasoned, a pilot about their lives they made with Gideon and his friend Ewen Wright a few years ago that was picked up by Showtime, then dropped during the strikes, and then screened at Tribeca this year; and the same as they do on "Don't Listen to Us.""
Mandy Patinkin and Kathryn Grody have been married 45 years and have lived in their Morningside Heights apartment building for nearly half that time. They often sit together in neighborhood diners, engaging in playful squabbles, digressions, and affectionate banter. They co-host a weekly podcast with their son Gideon, where listeners send questions ranging from vulnerable relationship problems to whimsical queries. They maintain popular TikTok and Instagram accounts and created a pilot called Seasoned that was briefly picked up by Showtime and later screened at Tribeca. The podcast mixes practical advice, humor, and intergenerational perspective.
