Happy Halloween! This week, I got to sit down with the hilarious Sasheer Zamata, and we talked about everything from her stand-up comedy to starring in Agatha All Along as the witch Jennifer. You’ll hear all about her journey from SNL into the Marvel Universe, her actual passion for witch history, how comedy has always been a part of her life, and how she’s a late-in-life lesbian. Stick around for the hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I answer your comments and emails. Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
On today’s episode, I sit down with my friend Rebecca Mader, known for her unforgettable roles on Once Upon a Time and Lost. We dive into some very fun stories about how we met at a convention (spoiler alert: it involves us both dropping to the ground). We talk about the world of Comic-Cons, motherhood, and how we’re pretty sure our kids love us! Rebecca also shares her experiences in Hollywood, playing the Wicked Witch of the West, being stuck in Hawaii asking herself why she was still on Lost, and how much she wants to be in a comedy. Rebecca is too fun and a riot to talk to. You don’t want to miss this one. Plus, stick around for my Hindsight segment with my producer, Jeph, where we answer your questions in the Mail Sack and try to keep it under 30 minutes.

Hey everyone! In this episode, I get to sit down (leg over the chair) with the lovely Jonathan Frakes, who, of course, played the legendary (and dreamy) William T. Riker on Star Trek: The Next Generation. We dive into so much—getting the role on Next Gen, his first directing job, and even his thoughts on the convention circuit and the sweaty fans. You guys, I so want to be in Star Trek and I’m hoping Jonathan can help me do that. I pitched myself pretty hard here, so fingers crossed! Stick around for the hindsight to find out how much of a Star Trek nerd my producer, Jeph, is while we answer your comments and emails in the Mail Sack.

Hi everyone! In this episode, I am so excited today because I am talking to Ezra Bridger himself from Ahsoka, aka Eman Esfandi! You guys, Eman is so sweet and genuine. We dive into everything from how spirituality plays a huge role in his life, to the wild story of how Ezra quite literally found him. Eman talks about growing up with immigrant parents, pivoting from tennis dreams to acting, and how he almost quit the industry before landing in the Star Wars universe. Plus, we get into his music career as DragonWulf and how following his joy helped him manifest all the great things that have happened to him. I love this episode so much. Eman is so honest and has lived a lot of lives at only 27 years old. You’re going to love it. Remember to stick around to the hindsight where my producer Jeph and I discuss the episode and try not to get me canceled. We also respond to your comments and emails in the Mail Sack!

Hey, everyone! Today, I'm very excited to talk with my good friend and one of the most talented composers I’ve ever met, Bear McCreary! Not only was he the composer for Battlestar Galactica, but he has gone on to work on shows like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Black Sails, Outlander, The Walking Dead,  and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.  We first met when we were both little babies on Battlestar. I was surprised to find out I wasn’t the only young person on the crew - Bear was the composer at only 24! Today, we're diving deep into his career, how he got interested in music, landed the Battlestar gig, and what he’s working on these days. Which speaking of, Bear just released his new double album and graphic novel project, “The Singularity”. If you like heavy metal and music like Guns and Roses then you’re going to love this because Slash literally plays on this album.  Also, find out how Bear came up with that iconic All Along the Watchtower Battlestar remix and how he convinced me to play it with him live on stage and might again soon! Stick around for the hindsight where I force my producer to listen to me talk about carpet beetles, bed bugs, parasitic wasps, and all that fun stuff. Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
Hey everyone, in this episode, I sit down with the amazing Bitsie Tulloch, known for her roles as Juliette Silverton in Grimm and Lois Lane in Superman & Lois. I was really excited to talk with Bitsie because I've only ever seen her at cons for short moments. It was great to talk to her about how she got into acting after going to Harvard(!) and the unexpected path that led her to iconic roles in Grimm and, of course, as Lois Lane.  We also talk about how she balances family life with her daughter and husband, David Giuntoli while surviving Hollywood and staying out of the public eye, as well as our shared love of Portland. Stick around for the hindsight where I read your comments and emails to find out what word I can't spell for the life of me...

In today’s episode, I’m chatting with my friend Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, who you probably know from Kim’s Convenience and just about every Star Wars show out there right now (The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka) as Captain Carson Teva.  Paul’s journey from an immigrant family to fulfilling his nerd dream of being a part of the Star Wars universe is amazing, and we dive deep into what it’s like growing up in Canada, deciding to be an actor against his parent's wishes, and having to navigate Hollywood as an Asian actor.  We also talk about his passion for collecting, the joy he finds in the Star Wars fandom, and why there's no Carson Teva action figure! Paul is just one of the kindest and most genuine people I’ve met, and I can’t wait for you all to hear his story. Enjoy this fantastic conversation with one of the best, and stick around for the Hindsight where I answer your comments and emails.  Send us your emails at thesackhoffshow@gmail.com.

Hello everyone, today we have Bosch himself, Titus Welliver, to talk about his life, playing Bosch (of course), his role on The Mandalorian, our new show Watchmen Chapter 1, and acting in general. Honestly, I was a little nervous to talk to him because he's kind of an intimidating guy, but it turns out he's an absolute sweetheart. Tune in to meet the sweet man underneath the tattoos and find out if I can pronounce Rorschach or not. Stick around for the hindsight, where we dissect the episode and answer your comments and emails.Send us your emails at thesackhoffshow@gmail.com.  Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
Today on the show we’ve got my friend and former neighbor, Jon Huertas. I actually don’t know how I met Jon, but he’s been a good friend for many years, and I was excited to catch up with him, learn more about his work on This Is Us and Band of Brothers, and get some tips on directing from him. Enjoy! That’s what’s up! Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
VIDEO IS BACK!!! You asked, we listened. I talk about why in the hindsight, so do stick around for that. Before that, our first honored video guest is certified Firefly-legend Jewel Staite. Not one to miss, folks. That's what's up! Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
Rekha Sharma is one of my favorite people and a dear friend! She was Tory on Battlestar Galactica, Commander Landry on Star Trek: Discovery, Jessica on Yellowjackets, and a million other things on a million other movies and shows. We nerd out about Star Trek, I stumble my way through some questions about race and typecasting in the film industry, and we have a good time. That’s what’s up! Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
Edward James Olmos is not just an acting legend who's played in everything from Miami Vice to Mayans M.C. In my Battlestar Galactica family he's basically my dad, and I couldn't be happier to have him on the show. Edward talks about New York gang culture in the 40s and 50s, the impact and importance of Battlestar, and the story behind his epic So Say We All-speech. Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
You know Jay Ellis from Top Gun, Insecure and Somebody I Used To Know, but he's also one of the hardest working men in Hollywood, and now also an author! We talk about Jay's imaginary friend (which is the subject of his book), working with Tom Cruise, and the iconic football scene in Top Gun: Maverick, and how they managed to make all the actors look so... oily. That's what's up!   Jordan's Mail Sack Art Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
My guest this week is my dear friend from The Mandalorian (and you may also know him from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or James Bond)! In classic fashion, our conversation ranges from ASMR and Mando, to Simon’s past life as a DJ and gang member... That’s what’s up. Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
You know this week’s guest from Shaun of the Dead, Mission Impossible, Star Trek, and much much more. I can’t understate how immensely cool Simon Pegg is, so I’ll simply say that he is a very rare member of the sci-fi trifecta club (Star Wars, Star Trek and Dr. Who), which we discuss in this episode, and a fact of which I am equally impressed by and envious of. As always, stick around for the hindsight, and that’s what’s up! Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
Guys, it’s Ahsoka herself – actor Ashley Eckstein, AKA The voice of Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Rebels, and Forces of Destiny, and much more. We talk about her beautiful perspective on connecting with fans at conventions, the Force, and female fans Star Wars being bullied. As always, stick around for the hindsight, where I get asked about a Tarantino role that never came to be, that I’m still a little salty about. That’s what’s up! Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
You know this week’s guest from Battlestar Galactica, How I Met Your Mother, or his insanely good performance on The Fall of the House of Usher, but to me, he is first and foremost my beloved work-husband ... it’s Michael Trucco! We discuss Michael growing up the son of a police officer, a near-fatal car crash that altered his perspective on life, our time together on BSG and much more. As always, stick around for the hindsight where we read some crazy animal facts. Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
My guest this week is arguably the most influential person in horror at this moment in time!! Mike Flanagan is the man behind Hill House, Fall of Usher, Oculus (where I had the pleasure of working with him), Doctor Sleep and much more. If you’re at all interested in the movie and television industry or the horror genre, this is not one to miss. And of course, I answer your lovely questions in the hindsight section. Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
You asked, and here he is. Robert Taylor is not only my co-star from Longmire, but a dear friend and one of my favorite people to talk with. We discuss the prospects of bringing Longmire back to TV screens, the pros and cons of intimacy coordinators, whether it’s OK to compliment someone’s (my) ass, how he stumbled his way into an amazing acting career, and much more. Stick around to the end for the hindsight where I answer your questions. That’s what’s up! Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
Hey you guys! Today i bring another pal from the Mandalorian-universe: Tait Fletcher, who you'll probably also recognize from Breaking Bad, John Wick or the new Jumanji. We talk about the on-set head injury that turned his life upside down, and a bunch more. As always, stick around for the hindsight where I talk about much sillier things and answer your emails.
