  • BSG Watch shows?!?

    Where are the BSG Watch shows? They are on YouTube and Spotify, but not Apple Podcasts. Katee’s team or Apple, please fix this! Only 3 stars until this is fixed.

    Love your podcasts and guests. My question is will you be at any Comicons in the central states region in 2026? I missed you last year in Kansas City back in March.

  • Easy Listening and Thoughtful

    I came across this show over the summer and glad I did. Katee is prepared for the interview but also is able to take things in another direction if the opportunity presents itself. I learned a lot of behind the scenes of how the industry works and have a better appreciation of the talent behind it all. It’s also refreshing to hear about day to day things with them as well.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S2 E16 - Battlestar Galactica - Sacrifice
Q: As an actor and as Cara, how did you tap into the immediate gut wrenching moment of realization and horror in that scene?
Dana Delaney explains that the intensity came from knowing the scene would never let Lee and Cara be together, and from the character's long-standing internal conflict and premonition-like intuition about consequences, which she channels through the fear and chaos of the moment to drive authentic reactions.
S2 E13 - Battlestar Galactica - Epiphanies
Q: If you were in Doc Cottle's shoes, would you have performed an abortion on the patient given the uncertainties about the baby's status and the potential threat to the fleet?
They explore the moral complexity of medical decisions under political and existential pressure, noting the responsibility of physicians to weigh risks to the fleet against individual patient ethics, and recognizing the difference between medical phenomena and human considerations.
S2 E13 - Battlestar Galactica - Epiphanies
Q: Enzo Creed says, so let's have a question about the episode, but I saw an Instagram reel that you and Toma made about things you kept from the set of BSG. Could you walk us through the process of taking that stuff and what is your favorite item you were able to keep?
They discuss the behind-the-scenes process of souvenir items, with Katee sharing anecdotes about the helmet and wardrobe pieces, and both acknowledging how fans acquire props while recognizing the studio's policies and copyright concerns.
S2 E10 ft Tricia Helfer - Battlestar Galactica - Pegasus
Q: What would Kara's karaoke song be, and what about your other characters?
Kara's song could be Staying Alive, reflecting her edgy, survivor spirit; for head Six, a different dynamic would inspire a contrasting choice.
S2 E10 ft Tricia Helfer - Battlestar Galactica - Pegasus
Q: Tricia, would you have watched Battlestar as a 15 year old?
Yes, I think I would have, but I probably wouldn't have understood all the philosophical questions; it would have felt cooler and more mysterious than fully grasping the deeper themes.
