Felicia Day joins Kyle Meredith to talk about her new Audible Original series, Third Eye, a comedy love letter to sci-fi and fantasy that tells the story of Laurel, a “Chosen One” wizard still grappling with the fallout of failing a decade earlier in her fight with an ultimate evil villain and also features the voices of Neil Gaiman, Wil Wheaton, Sean Astin, Lily Pichy, Danny Pudi, Alan Tudyk, London Hughes, Christopher Judge, and “Weird” Al Yankovic. The actress/writer tells how she originally envisioned a TV show to follow up her series, The Guild, that reflected parts of her own life where she felt like a failure who didn’t live up to professional expectations, why she prefers darker British-style comedy to self-satisfying American, and making “a grim fantasy.” The two then nerd out on the Easter eggs, inside jokes, and how she chose which language to use for the spells cast by the characters, as well as the music she was listening to while creating the story (Trey Anastasio, Unknown Mortal orchestra, First Aid Kit), and why its so easy to trash the 2000s.
