Hungry Trilobyte Podcast

Joseph Mallozzi is a highly accomplished writer, with series such as Utopia Falls and Dark Matter to his credit. However, the work I couldn’t resist talking about was his work on the Stargate series, joining SG1 in Season 4 and helping launch Atlantis and Universe. Joe and I talk about world-building, US Military support of the show, the importance of humor in science fiction, and the Richard Dean Anderson factor. Because Jack O’Neill is awesome.

We also get to take some awesome tangents into talking about getting kids into reading (the Harry Potter Effect) and getting them to keep reading after they grow up (the Post-Harry-Potter effect). Also, how has the shortened TV season trend changed showrunning?

Steven Jay Rubin is the author of The James Bond Movie Encyclopedia. As a fellow Bond fan, I’m happy to pick his brain on classic 007 topics such as “Which Bond actor worked best?” and “Does the Bond continuity work?” He and I have a mutual admiration for the lengths the franchise has went through to stay fresh and relevant.

In addition, Steven is a screenwriter with a particular interest in comedy—real comedy, funny comedy, and we spend a lot of time talking about how the genre isn’t at its best right now, and ways it could see new life.

Nick Bailey is the voice behind the Fancounters Celebrity Podcast, a creativty discussion podcast with an approach very similar to Hungry Trilobyte. Nick also has a solid background in independent film with projects such as Life On Our Own and Growing Up Hollywood.

In this episode, Nick and I talk about the merits of podcasting and independent film, and I get to talk about what I consider to be the Golden Age of indie cinema: the years 2000-2012.

Lanie Labens (first seen in Episode 36) has returned to Hungry Trilobyte to talk about her new book, The Bear Moon, as well as her writing persona of Halston Blake. This is a fantastic chat, full of insights into writing genre fiction in the 21st century, motivating yourself as an author (especially an unpublished author) and the value of writing something you're passionate about!

Not only do we pick apart how genre fiction can cross over into more mainstream types of fiction, we also share our other mutual interests-- Animal Crossing, and getting back to conventions sooner rather than later!

Kennedy Phillips is a professional Sound Designer, as well as an enthusiast of vintage audio drama and online content creator. He has worked on projects such as Spiders and Arctic. His own projects include the audio drama Magus Elgar. In this episode, Kennedy and I discuss the impact that sound engineering has on the dramatic experience, and the different ways that can be presented in film, audio drama, podcasts, and even in real life.

That conversation takes an unexpected turn, when we jump from talking about audio drama to our various feelings on Star Trek: Voyager.

John Billingsley is known to Star Trek fans as Dr. Phlox, and in this episode of Hungry Trilobyte, we do get to discuss a lot of the more fun aspects of the character (as well as some less-than-fun aspects of the makeup!). John then indulges me in talking about moving from acting to social responsibility, and using your means (whatever they may be) to help people in your community. Currently, he's been making his difference at the Hollywood Food Coalition, an organization that addresses hunger.

Noah Averbach-Katz hit Season 3 of Star Trek: Discovery with a POW! Playing the Andorian Ryn, his character has added a whole new layer of depth to our understanding of the future Federation as well as to the culture of Andorians. Noah has also connected with fans right away, embracing the Trek community and trying to give back to the fans as much as possible.

Noah has also done his best to promote causes like Type I, an organization dedicated to cutting down obstacles to diabetics having access to insulin. In addition, he and his fellow Discovery castmates have an online Dungeons and Dragons game running, which might lead to community-building efforts all of its own.
