Melissa O'Neil walked into her audition for The Rookie with an unconventional warm-up strategy. Before starting the scene, she... squatted. As in, she dropped down and did squats. Right there in the audition room. Nathan has been impressed ever since... more

Rambling remembrances and very human moments between good friends. An hour just ain’t enough. Oh and guests to blow your mind. Good to hear Mark Addy again. I think A Knight’s Tale was my introduction to Alan Tudyk.
Enjoyed interview with Mark Addy - listening to the tales of A Knight’s Tale, feeling sad about fellow Aussie, Heath Ledger. I read GOT before the series and really enjoyed the first 2 seasons. And I especially love the banter between Nathan and Alan. I first ‘met’ Nathan on Buffy and Alan on Firefly. Keep on doing what you are doing, entertaining and leaving people better informed and happy ✨🌟✨
Sorry to bang on about Firefly but the magic of that show is in part due to the craft that Nathan and Alan deep dive into with this podcast. It’s not just about one show but rather an insight to their entire body of work. Bringing in guests just makes it all the more fun. It’s hard to find ways to thank the the actors of the greatest space adventure that ever was but by following this podcast I hope to share some of my gratitude. Keep up the good work.
This podcast is refreshing and hilarious! Two of my favorite actors letting us get a little peek behind the curtain to see how lovely they truly are. Good people, good vibes, perfect podcast!
I’ve only listened to two of these episodes, but I’ve found the interviews quite revealing. The episode with Mark Addy was funny and illuminating on what life as an actor is like. The other episode was about what motivated one to continue after a failure. That advice could apply to anyone, not just actors. I enjoy Nathan and Alan on screen and also when they are just themselves. Thanks for making a great podcast.
