Happy Tuesday, everyone! Lake Bell and I are kind of the same person. You'll hear all about in the episode, but the similarities are WILD. I loved this conversation with Lake-- we nerd out about our favorite cars, we talk about how we've both voiced Poison Ivy and we really bond over our kids' health struggles. Lake is insanely smart and talented and I really admire her so much. She has taken what she learned from her daughter about epilepsy and turned it into a beautiful book called All About Brains. I loved hearing her talk about the book and how it's designed to help kids across the neurodiversity spectrum feel like they have language to talk about their experience. Lake's also a fabulous actor and you may have seen her as Dr. Graham in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Dr. Cat Black on Children's Hospital (Jeph's Favorite) or in ...In A World, which she also wrote and directed. Stick around for the Hindsight after the interview, where Jeph and I talk about some upcoming convention dates and respond to Fan Questions from the Mail Sack!

Hi everyone, happy Tuesday! Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a stunt performer? Then you’ll love this week’s conversation with my guest, Patrick Sabongui. Patrick is a brilliant actor, but he got his start in stunts and if you’ve watched an action movie in the last 20 years, you’ve probably seen his work . We first met when on Christmas Sail, where he played Luke Fletcher. He also played Chief David Singh on the Flash and is currently starring as Jacob Hassani in the new show The Hunting Party. I found it so fascinating to learn more about his process as an actor because he approaches everything through the lens of physical technique and martial arts. Patrick’s also a professor and honestly I feel like this interview was a free acting class! I learned a lot, and I think you will too. Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I read Fan emails from the Mail Sack, including an update on Paul Sun-Hyung Lee and his quest for a Cpt. Carson Teva action figure.

Happy Tuesday! We’ve got a great episode for you this week. If you are a fan of Star Trek or Walking Dead, then you know Sonequa Martin-Green. In addition to playing Sasha Williams and Commander Michael Burnham on Discovery, Sonequa is currently starring alongside Natalie Morales in the moving new film My Dead Friend Zoe. I have been a fan of Sonequa’s work for a long time and I absolutely loved her performance in the new movie. We covered a lot of ground in our conversation from how to build a “show family,” to the role faith plays in her life as an actor, to the inspiring work she and My Dead Friend Zoe director Kyle Hausmann-Stokes are doing to start a dialogue about mental health among veterans. Stick around after the interview for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I celebrate my BIRTHDAY and answer Fan Questions from the Mail Sack!

Happy Tuesday everyone! I’m so excited for you to listen to this episode. I first met Cassidy Freeman on Longmire, where she played Cady Longmire. Before that, you may have seen her as Tess Mercer on Smallville and she’s currently starring in the final season of Righteous Gemstones, where she plays Amber Gemstone. Cassidy is obviously extremely talented, and she’s freaking hilarious on Gemstones. But man if you listen to this interview you’ll learn that she’s also just a badass person. She’s a fearless friend and a great mom and I love getting to talk to her about life, career, motherhood and everything else. I can’t wait for you to get to know her a little better! Be sure to stick around for the hindsight, where producer Jeph and I recap our recent whirlwind trip to Indiana where we recorded a live episode of The Sackhoff Show. We also respond to some of your questions from the Mail Sack! Send me an email [email protected] Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles

Hi everyone! I hope you’re all having a wonderful Spring. I’m so excited for you to listen to today’s episode! If you’re a fan of Schitt’s Creek, then you know Sarah Levy from playing Twyla in the show-- she also happens to be the daughter of Eugene Levy and the sister of Dan Levy. I had such a fun time hearing the inside scoop on that show, which is one of my favorites of all time, as well as what it was like to grow up in such a funny family. Sarah is currently starring as Aunt Ida in a new horror movie called The Monkey, which is adapted from a Stephen King short story and directed by Osgood Perkins. We talk about how much fun she had doing horror (if you haven’t seen the movie yet, it sounds TERRIFYING). Sarah lost her home in the Palisades fire, so the conversation starts in a vulnerable place— but I’m so glad it did, because we get to go deep pretty fast, and I feel like I made a new friend! Be sure to stick around for the hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I talk about the episode and respond to listener fact checks from the Mail Sack!

Happy Tuesday Everyone! Last week’s episode with Battlestar Galactica creator Ron Moore was such a doozy, we had to call in re-enforcements to discuss it. And who better than my Battlestar Bestie Tricia Helfer? You know Tricia from her role as Number Six. She also played Charlotte Richards/Goddess on Lucifer and voiced Sarah Kerrigan in StarCraft II, among many other roles. I love any excuse to get together with Tricia and it was such a blast to do a deep dive into Ron’s interview (Sorry, Ron— we’re not over it!). We talk about how Ron built a collaborative set on Battlestar, getting booed at our first Comic-Con, the moment Tricia switched from dying her real hair to wearing a wig as Number Six, and so much more! Plus, Tricia and I brainstorm projects for our reunion— Cagney and Lacey, anyone?

Look out, everyone: This week’s episode is an all-timer! We’ve got the one and only Ron Moore in the STUDIO. I am still so intimidated by Ron and it was such an honor to sit down with him for this conversation. If you DON’T know Ron Moore, I don’t even know what to say. He created Battlestar Galactica, Outlander and For All Mankind. He spent a decade writing for Star Trek, on both The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine. His mark on American sci-fi is massive and I can’t believe I get to call him my friend. We talk about all things Battlestar, including a really beautiful conversation about the show’s ending. We talk about how he got his start writing for Trek, what he’s learned from the characters he’s created and what’s next on the horizon for him. I know you’ll enjoy this conversation, it’s one of my absolute favorites. After the interview, stick around for a tease of next week’s episode— We’ve got something super-fun and special planned for you! Come see us live in Indiana!

Hi everyone! We’ve got a really fun episode for you today. It’s not every week I get to interview someone where I’m just genuinely a huge fan, but that is what happened with Harvey Guillen. I literally went up to him at a convention and told him I loved him (couldn’t help myself!). If you don’t know Harvey’s work as Guillermo in What We Do in the Shadows, stop what you’re doing and go watch. I absolutely love him on that show. He’s got a new movie out called Companion, where he plays Eli. You may also know his amazing voice work in movies like Wish, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish and The Garfield Movie. It was such a treat to spend some time with him and get to know him better! I particularly loved getting to talk to him about his red carpet collaborations with Christian Siriano and others. After the interview, be sure to stick around for the Hindsight where producer Jeph and I talk about why he has so many pictures of me on his phone! Plus, we pull fan questions from the Mail Sack.

Happy Tuesday, everyone! For today’s episode, I am getting into the ring with my friend Mercedes Varnado (more wrestling puns to come, don’t worry). I met Mercedes on The Mandalorian where she plays Koska Reeves, and she is a superstar in the world of wrestling. As Sasha Banks, she was the first woman to headline a WWE Pay-Per-View Event and as Mercedes Moné, she is the current AEW TBS Champion in her first reign. She doesn’t give very many interviews out of character, so this was a real treat. We talk about wrestling and acting, and what they have in common, and we just talk about life. It was interesting to hear her reflect on her evolution as an entertainer and what it has taken to become the CEO of her own career. Be sure to get up off the mat and stick around for the Hindsight (see what I did there?) where my producer Jeph and I talk about the interview and answer fan questions from the Mail Sack!

Happy Tuesday! We’ve got a super-fun episode for you this week— it’s my friend, the hilarious Rachael Harris! Rachael is hands down one of the funniest people I know and if you don’t know her name, you definitely know her work. She’s been in movies like The Hangover, Best in Show and Diary of a Wimpy Kid and has done a ton of TV, including playing Sheila Sazs on Suits and Linda Martin on Lucifer. We talk about where her sense of humor comes from and how it has gotten her through difficult times in life. We laugh a LOT in this episode, and the conversation also gets deep pretty fast— we talk about both choosing surrogacy and how having kids changed how we view our parents. It’s a beautiful conversation with one of my favorite people— I hope you check it out! Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where producer Jeph tells me about Winnebago Man and we trade horror stories about terrible cups of coffee.
