00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:27.319
I am doing well. Like I was saying earlier, this

00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:31.199

55
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:33.960

00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:39.520
talk with Tara. So very good, very happy.

57
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:44.159
Excellent, And without any further ado, I'd like to introduce

58
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:48.360
our special guest, Twer Roslin. She grew up in Vancouver,

59
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.560
in small towns of British Columbia and the Interior. She

60
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:55.080
graduated with a BA acting from the New York University.

61
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:58.680
Soon after, she moved to Toronto and began working in film,

62
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:03.120
television and independ did there. Her on screen credits include

63
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:07.080
roles on Highland or The Raven, Total Recall twenty seventy,

64
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:12.759
The Dresident Files, Crash and Burn, Ransom, The Handmaiden's Tail,

65
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:17.639
and The Expanse. But we all know and love her

66
00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:21.360
as Terina from Star Trek to thank thank you very

67
00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:28.519
much to the show. So I would like to start

68
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.600
out by asking a question that I ask every guest

69
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:32.600
that comes on the show.

70
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:38.160
Oh, I thought was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed David gooving

71
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:40.120
to the tunes.

72
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:43.480
The graphics for Fantastic is very fun.

73
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:49.079
Yeah, we'd like.

74
00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:53.519
To start off with some fun. So we talked to

75
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:55.319
Doug Jones. I think was it last.

76
00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:58.720
Week, the week before the weekend four?

77
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:04.560
Doug Jones? So if he wanted to say hello and yeah, he's.

78
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:05.240
Such a liar.

79
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:07.839
You of course.

80
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:12.160
Well, Doug Jones is probably one of my favorite people

81
00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:13.720
on the planet, and I have nothing but good things

82
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:15.959
to say about him. He's well, as you all know,

83
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:18.639
he's an extraordinary actor and human being and it was

84
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.120
such a it's such a gift to work with him

85
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:26.879
on Discovery.

86
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:28.759
So I wanted to ask.

87
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.160
He told me to ask you this question because we

88
00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:34.879
asked him last week and he said you would have

89
00:05:34.879 --> 00:05:38.040
a better answer for us. So how did how did

90
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:41.720
your whole relationship with Saru develop on the show into

91
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.920
an ongoing, reoccurring role.

92
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:47.639
Oh, so this is the story as far as I

93
00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:53.079
understand it. Although these stories become theay more right as

94
00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:55.959
time goes on, people embellish and add new things and

95
00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:59.959
others have different versions. But so initially when I was cast,

96
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:02.720
I think Trina was just supposed to be on one episode,

97
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:05.800
and on that particular episode I think I can't remember

98
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:08.480
was it season three, episodes six or seven. I don't

99
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:11.240
remember which one it was exactly, but I had a

100
00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:14.959
fair bit of time on that on that episode with Doug.

101
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:18.160
In fact, he was the first person that I acted

102
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:22.319
with when I arrived on set, and thank goodness, because

103
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:24.319
he put me at ease. It was quite intimidating to

104
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:27.920
step on that, to step on the set initially, and

105
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:32.000
we just we really enjoyed working together, and I guess

106
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:33.720
it was apparent to both of.

107
00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:35.279
Us and others that there was a chemistry.

108
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:39.120
There was just a natural chemistry, and as far as

109
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:43.399
I know, like we both really enjoyed the time we

110
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:47.959
worked together on that particular I can't remember how many days.

111
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:49.920
It might have been three or four days. And then

112
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:52.800
as far as I know, Doug went to Michelle, the

113
00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:55.920
showrunner and said, hmm, do you think this is there's

114
00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.639
a possibility here for Sabu to have a little bit

115
00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:03.519
of romance, and I think Michelle took that to heart,

116
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:06.000
and and that's why, like I think, you know, Doug

117
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:13.000
obviously had a lot of clout being you know, and

118
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:15.199
and so I think that they were they were really

119
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:19.519
interested in following that through on his behalf. And I

120
00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:22.480
think it really added a beautiful element to the to

121
00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:23.360
the storyline.

122
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:29.000
I couldn't agree more.

123
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:32.800
That's one of our what's his version of the story?

124
00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:39.480
Is it at all similar? M?

125
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:41.639
It was very similar.

126
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:47.839
He mentioned he mentioned something about falling off the stage

127
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:52.399
when you guys exited the stage and uh, some crashing,

128
00:07:52.439 --> 00:07:54.879
and they just kept right on filming, even though he was.

129
00:07:56.920 --> 00:08:00.160
All right, yeah, my main apozle brain doesn't remember that,

130
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:02.120
but it's it's entirely possible.

131
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:13.199
Yeah, so he yeah, yeah, he said something about, uh,

132
00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:17.920
exiting stage left and he fell and you guys were

133
00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:19.879
off kind of snickering on the side, and they just

134
00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:21.920
kept the film rolling. They they didn't want to cut

135
00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:24.399
the scene. And you listen real careful in the background,

136
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:26.959
you might be able to hear that's just falling.

137
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:30.079
M.

138
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:34.600
So he says, yeah, no, it was. It was an

139
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:37.279
incredible surprise and a real delight because as far as

140
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:39.039
I knew, I wasn't coming back. And so when they

141
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.679
continued the story into four and season four and five,

142
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:45.000
it particularly four like it was, it was a big

143
00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:53.399
surprise for me. So did you I do have a

144
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:57.279
set somewhere, So I don't know. Like the they're they're

145
00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:01.600
just like basically made out of glue and you wear

146
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:04.080
every time you every time you shoot, you wear a

147
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:08.000
new pair of ears, and if you're feeling particularly impatient

148
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:10.639
after a particularly long day of shooting, you can, in

149
00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:13.320
theory just pull them off, and if you do that,

150
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.799
you can in theory take them home. So I might

151
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:19.840
have taken a few sets home. There was some people

152
00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:23.440
that specifically asked if they could have us. I think

153
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:29.120
I jokingly sent a set to my agent through the mail. Yeah,

154
00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:31.960
so I do. I think I have one left in

155
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:37.600
the back of my bathroom copboard set of ears.

156
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:41.919
How long did it take to get into the ears

157
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:42.960
and the hair and the hole?

158
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:46.159
The processing time was three hours, So that was for

159
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:51.000
everything that was for makeup, prosthetics, wigs, and costume. But

160
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:55.000
we would, like you know, there were times where we

161
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:57.840
were called to set at two thirty in the morning,

162
00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:01.960
depending if it was a Monday. You know, Mondays generally

163
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:06.639
start quite early, so yeah, but uh, it was always

164
00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:09.159
about three hour processing for me, and some people, of course,

165
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:12.919
were much longer. I think Doug and I were comparable

166
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:14.799
in that regard.

167
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:18.360
Yeah. Wow.

168
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:23.240
So who was the practical joker on the set while

169
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:26.519
you were filming brave you up and break.

170
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:27.080
You out of character?

171
00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:31.240
I don't remember. I think maybe Callum Keith Rennie, but

172
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:34.080
he didn't arrive on the scene until season five. Was

173
00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:37.360
he was very much, very mischievous, very fun to be

174
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:41.519
on set with. Like Doug was always funny. He always

175
00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:44.399
had us all in stitches and hysterics, but he wouldn't

176
00:10:44.440 --> 00:10:46.480
try to like crack us up while we were shooting.

177
00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:51.399
He was very professional in that regard. Yeah, I don't

178
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:54.279
really like I could mention people that I've worked with

179
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:58.039
on stage who will deliberately try to corpse you that's

180
00:10:57.840 --> 00:11:01.240
the term for making you on stage. But I don't

181
00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:03.360
there's somebody on that set that was like up to

182
00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:07.360
antics to make you, you know, burst out laughing and

183
00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:09.879
recca a take.

184
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:11.799
Yeah there was.

185
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:16.799
Yeah, Doug was very funny. Who else was super funny

186
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:21.679
on the I think Doug. Doug took the prize for

187
00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:25.879
like you know, well you you interviewed him, he's he's

188
00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:26.919
incredibly funny.

189
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:34.720
Yeah, yeah, he absolutely is. What's one of your favorite

190
00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:35.960
memories of working on.

191
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:41.919
I don't know, that's a that's a that's a tricky question.

192
00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:46.279
There were many scenes that I loved. Most of the

193
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:48.320
scenes that I really really loved working on with the

194
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:50.519
two Hands with Doug because they were just written so

195
00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:55.039
beautifully and there was you know, again he's I think

196
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:57.559
because there was a natural rapport between us. It was

197
00:11:57.600 --> 00:11:59.600
just such a treat to work with him.

198
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:00.320
So I.

199
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:05.440
Some of them were extra special because of what I

200
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:08.279
got to wear, which you know would all my all.

201
00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:12.240
My wardrobe was actually pretty insanely gorgeous, So so that

202
00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:16.159
was that was a trip and a treat. The sound

203
00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:19.360
stage was like really interesting to work on. We didn't

204
00:12:19.480 --> 00:12:21.799
I didn't do anything outside of the studio on the

205
00:12:21.799 --> 00:12:29.879
sound stage, so I was never I was never uh location, Yeah,

206
00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:31.960
I don't. I can't say, like, I can't speak to

207
00:12:32.039 --> 00:12:35.320
a favorite memory. Oh I can speak to one that

208
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:39.519
when when we shot the wedding, Doug and I bought

209
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:43.080
an actual wedding cake for the cast. And crew to

210
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:45.360
enjoy at lunch. So that was that was a lot

211
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:49.279
of fun having that reveal and sharing that with everybody,

212
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:52.120
And yeah.

213
00:12:51.279 --> 00:12:58.799
Yeah, were you guys, Were you guys surprised and shocked

214
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:03.720
when you found out that the show had been canceled? Yeah?

215
00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:06.120
Yeah, it was a big surprise, I think for everybody

216
00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:08.600
because because as far as we knew we were we

217
00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:11.360
were going to go ahead with another season. And I'm

218
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:14.399
not sure, like I know that it happened quite suddenly.

219
00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:18.240
I wasn't privy to the first call because I wasn't

220
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:20.639
high ranking enough on the call sheet, but I know,

221
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:24.320
I think Michelle called a zoom called Michelle Paradise just

222
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:28.159
to let you know, like Sinekoa and Doug and everybody

223
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:30.120
know right away before it was public.

224
00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:34.120
And then I think I was sent an email.

225
00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:36.399
I can't remember exactly how it all went down, but yeah,

226
00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:42.000
certainly and really disappointed because you know, was it. There

227
00:13:42.039 --> 00:13:44.120
was so many things about that show that made it

228
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:46.799
delicious to work on. Like the material was fun, the

229
00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:50.240
characters were fun. The entire cast it was it was

230
00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:55.039
composed of like insanely beautiful humans. The crew was super

231
00:13:55.080 --> 00:13:57.720
supportive and really lovely, like it was just a true

232
00:13:57.879 --> 00:14:01.039
joy to go to work, which isn't always the case

233
00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:03.960
when you step on a set. So I think we

234
00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:07.480
were all very disappointed. Plus, you know, we've seen the

235
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:10.799
show through the pandemic, which was not easy by any

236
00:14:10.799 --> 00:14:13.679
start of the imagination to be you know, wearing your

237
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:18.039
mask through rehearsal and then and you know, staying isolated

238
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:18.960
and all that jazz.

239
00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:22.080
So yeah, it was very disappointing.

240
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:28.879
Well, thank you so much. I'm gonna I'm going to

241
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:30.159
pass the microphone over to.

242
00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:32.600
Questions.

243
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:41.799
You can see everybody.

244
00:14:42.879 --> 00:14:44.879
It might be one of those things where the if

245
00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:53.200
you slide the screen over if you're on the phone,

246
00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:56.679
well you know you're you're you're actually getting like a gift.

247
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:01.440
So it's like the Internet is doing you a favor

248
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:04.000
because you know a lot of times they'll say, you know,

249
00:15:04.039 --> 00:15:06.360
you have a voice for radio, friend right, but not

250
00:15:06.399 --> 00:15:09.240
for television. So but I just want to say, I'm

251
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.519
a tremendous fan of your work and the craft of

252
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.919
acting in general is something I'm very enthusiastic about. And

253
00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:19.679
you can always tell when there's somebody who shows up

254
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:23.720
a show like this and they've got that stage background

255
00:15:23.879 --> 00:15:28.480
and I'm assuming you were classically trained, right, because you

256
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:29.919
just kind of exude Yeah.

257
00:15:29.960 --> 00:15:32.039
I mean I went to when I went to your university,

258
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:34.639
that was all a studying theater.

259
00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:38.679
And I think that I've said this to many people.

260
00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:40.960
I think that the show is very well suited to

261
00:15:41.799 --> 00:15:45.159
people that have trained in theater because the text is

262
00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:50.120
so dense and you need such to be so grounded

263
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:54.200
and so committed to the text to lift it. And

264
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.639
so yeah, thank you those kind words to share.

265
00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:05.720
And you know, you watch there's so much chaos happening

266
00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:08.559
in any particular episode of Discovery, right, There's so many

267
00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:12.320
you know, exciting moments and hyperbolic occurrences, and the plot

268
00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:15.000
is just you know, dialed up to eleventh so often.

269
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:15.240
Right.

270
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:18.320
But what I loved about your character is in the

271
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:20.960
midst of all those things that we see, you had

272
00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:27.639
such strength of resolve and projected such a marvelous calm.

273
00:16:28.080 --> 00:16:30.320
But I don't think we normally were used to seeing

274
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:32.840
on the show. I just thought that was really grounding,

275
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:35.960
you know. And even folks who were you know, take

276
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:38.120
a take a show like you know, Strange New Worlds

277
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:41.240
for example, where they you know, take vulcan logic and

278
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:44.360
play very loosely with it, right, And I felt like

279
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:48.080
you didn't do that. You kept such strength about the

280
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:52.240
way you chose to depict that that character. And I'm

281
00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:54.519
just did you do a lot of comparing with other

282
00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:58.279
vulcan interpretations. I mean, that's a long wind did you

283
00:16:58.320 --> 00:17:00.519
know question to ask anybody? But I'm just I'm just curious.

284
00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:03.879
It was a particular uhursor that was.

285
00:17:05.440 --> 00:17:05.599
No.

286
00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.680
I didn't want to go down that rabbit hole too deeply,

287
00:17:08.759 --> 00:17:12.839
because one is always I mean, you're intimidated by, you know,

288
00:17:12.920 --> 00:17:16.599
the legend of these people and or the legacy of them, and.

289
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:19.519
I think you can.

290
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:26.119
You know, you might tend to borrow too much, so

291
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:29.920
I you know, like I'm I'm I'm familiar with Spock right,

292
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:33.119
like I there's But what I did was I actually

293
00:17:34.359 --> 00:17:39.200
the calm that you're speaking to, I siphoned Trina or

294
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:43.640
or I I I approached her through a filter of

295
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:49.680
of Buddhism, because the whole practice of the Buddhist is

296
00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:52.720
it's not that you don't you don't experience things on

297
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:56.839
an emotional level, but you work above the emotional world

298
00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:59.440
and move into the into the realm of the mind.

299
00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:01.480
And I thought that that was I thought that that

300
00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:05.680
was that that particular approach worked for me in terms

301
00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:08.839
of approaching a vulcan, that made sense to my actor,

302
00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:13.039
to my actor's sensibility.

303
00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:17.799
Yeah, I thought it worked beautifully though, because there was

304
00:18:17.839 --> 00:18:21.319
that it wasn't like, these are not people who don't

305
00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:24.119
have emotions, but they regulate them and they're in control

306
00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:26.960
of the and they're able to stay on top of it.

307
00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:30.160
So too, there was a scene, Sorry to interrupt, but

308
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:33.880
there was a scene that Trina had with Booker and

309
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.240
and he's asking her for advice after he's experienced a

310
00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:42.880
huge his huge personal loss, and she does literally say,

311
00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:46.839
it's not that we don't experience emotion, it's just that

312
00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:54.200
we we practice we practice basically meditation. Yeah, so that's

313
00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:57.400
that's why all that kind of approach made sense to me.

314
00:19:01.160 --> 00:19:03.559
Now it's just such a bright spot and on the

315
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:05.519
show for me, your character, I mean, it was just

316
00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:10.039
really very indelible and just striking, and when you were

317
00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:12.319
on screen, it was impossible.

318
00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:17.400
I love I heard playing with her like I loved

319
00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:20.519
playing that part she was like to feel that strength

320
00:19:20.599 --> 00:19:23.680
and to feel that the conviction of her and that

321
00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:27.440
the power, the quiet power of her was.

322
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:32.359
Was really lovely to for me to sit in that skin.

323
00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:33.640
I really.

324
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:38.119
Yeah, that was phenomenal work. And I want to make

325
00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:40.079
sure that we give all of our other trucks berts

326
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:42.359
a chance tim in here. But I did just one

327
00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:45.680
other brief question about that power that I've been dying

328
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:49.599
to ask, is Trina is a leader. She's a form

329
00:19:49.839 --> 00:19:53.799
a formidable position, right, She's got such authority and a

330
00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:57.839
lot of kind of chaotic uncertain times in terms of

331
00:19:57.960 --> 00:19:59.680
where the show is set. And I'm wondering, did you

332
00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:02.880
mid well any part of her as a leader off

333
00:20:02.920 --> 00:20:05.799
of any you know, leaders you admire in the real world,

334
00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:07.160
any particular leadership.

335
00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:10.440
That's a really good question. No one in particular.

336
00:20:11.759 --> 00:20:19.160
So the lunch big letdown, that's such a you know what,

337
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:21.319
I bet you I could go back through my rolodex

338
00:20:21.359 --> 00:20:23.680
and go, I bet it was it was influenced by

339
00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:26.359
this person or I was there was an impression left

340
00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:28.599
by that person. But off the top of my head,

341
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:32.839
there's no specific individual that I that I modeled her

342
00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:33.440
her on.

343
00:20:37.319 --> 00:20:40.559
You. I wish we had a world so mad right now.

344
00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:43.880
It's you know, like we're all navigating such a crazy

345
00:20:43.920 --> 00:20:44.920
time on this planet.

346
00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:48.680
And yeah, yeah, we uh.

347
00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:52.319
So, I like to think that perhaps you, in your

348
00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:59.240
portrayal maybe created an example for future presidents.

349
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:02.400
He's watched it scabby towards leadership.

350
00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:07.160
I'd like to think there's young women out there that

351
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:10.319
will choose to move into leadership because of what they

352
00:21:10.359 --> 00:21:12.680
saw in your performance. And I think that's that's how

353
00:21:12.720 --> 00:21:15.920
I choose to focus on that. But again, it was

354
00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:18.839
a remarkable formance, and I hope that we get to

355
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:20.960
see you in some other aspect of Star Trek in

356
00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:24.400
the future, because your work is just splendid. I can

357
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:26.880
see my co host Trexpert friend.

358
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:28.839
V flapping I'm not flapping my arms.

359
00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:32.119
Well, it looks like you're trying to take flight me.

360
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:35.799
I'm just sitting here. I'm just sitting here, trying to

361
00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:40.319
not know. It's just it's my my ADHD that I'm

362
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:43.000
trying to sit still and not look like a total freak.

363
00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:47.000
Those are just your eyebrows moving very dramatically. It's okay,

364
00:21:47.519 --> 00:21:49.640
all right, I'm going to withdraw a friend. You take

365
00:21:49.680 --> 00:21:50.119
it from here.

366
00:21:50.559 --> 00:21:53.960
Gosh, wait to you know, set me up, Paul, Thanks

367
00:21:53.960 --> 00:21:59.640
for that. See, I was going to be all dignified

368
00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:03.000
and ask wonderful questions and all that now it's just

369
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.599
totally gone out of my head. No, I know it

370
00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:09.359
all in all serious. I love these guys. I mean

371
00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:13.039
they're just I only joined. It'll be It'll be a

372
00:22:13.119 --> 00:22:17.160
year the end of May, won't it. Yeah, I think

373
00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:20.799
when I joined. So but anyway, no, I echo what

374
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:24.359
Paul said because I've got a theater background and I

375
00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:28.079
love seeing the actors who I can tell have that

376
00:22:28.079 --> 00:22:33.079
that classical training, that Shakespearean feeling about them, and so

377
00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:37.880
you definitely portrayed that. And you're one of those one

378
00:22:37.880 --> 00:22:41.920
of Terina's one of those characters that I just look

379
00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:44.240
at and I want to emulate. And that goes along

380
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:50.119
with you know, Jane Way and seven of nine later

381
00:22:50.200 --> 00:22:56.799
on when she's debordified, then on DS nine with both

382
00:22:57.599 --> 00:22:58.759
Dax's and.

383
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:00.400
Us.

384
00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:04.759
So it was just such a delight to to see

385
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:08.400
you and you just you just embodied that character. You

386
00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:12.480
just were, It just exuded you. Just Terina just through

387
00:23:12.519 --> 00:23:17.640
you exuded that power and that calm and then also

388
00:23:17.680 --> 00:23:22.599
of course the chemistry with Doug. And because you can

389
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:26.119
see shows where you can tell that the actors are

390
00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:29.240
not really you know, connected, but you two definitely were,

391
00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:32.480
and like like uncle Jim said, Doug said nothing but

392
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:35.359
wonderful things about you, and he was not a liar.

393
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:39.400
He is you, you know, he's such a genuine person.

394
00:23:40.039 --> 00:23:44.200
But so I was it was interesting with with Charina

395
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:47.880
that there were two things that were very that were well,

396
00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:51.440
one thing that was rather non Vulcan about her is

397
00:23:51.480 --> 00:23:55.240
that there's she is capable of lying, which Vulcans are

398
00:23:55.759 --> 00:23:59.440
kind of not supposed to do, or they, I guess

399
00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:02.519
are against it because there was a situation. I forget

400
00:24:02.519 --> 00:24:04.880
which planet it was, but Trina comes up with this

401
00:24:05.319 --> 00:24:10.359
makes up the scenario. So was there any sort of

402
00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:14.680
was that something that the writers just wanted to take

403
00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:20.000
her out of that Vulcan you know, the Vulcan parameters

404
00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:22.960
and just you know, give her that interesting.

405
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:25.160
Sorry, I don't remember what you're referring to.

406
00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:30.039
I'm trying. I'm trying to forget that it was the

407
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:33.319
we should have gotten more details, huh.

408
00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:39.680
So for the life of me, you know, my memories,

409
00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:43.559
my memory is generally very good. My husband always he

410
00:24:43.599 --> 00:24:46.920
gets he gets so angry because I can remember my sides,

411
00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:49.640
like when we have auditions. I can memorize my sides

412
00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:52.759
like that, and it takes him forever or he's able

413
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:54.599
to at all. But for the life of me, like,

414
00:24:54.640 --> 00:24:56.640
there's things that I can't remember when I go back

415
00:24:56.680 --> 00:24:59.039
over over a body of work or a play that

416
00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:02.119
I've worked on it, So you're probably right, I just

417
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:02.839
don't remember.

418
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:04.440
Does anyone else remember what?

419
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:05.359
That's what.

420
00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:10.240
I think what it might be is there was a

421
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:19.880
season five makes up a story about.

422
00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:23.200
When she's negotiating, and I think it was like, yeah,

423
00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:25.240
and it was like basically kind of like, you know,

424
00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:28.440
you're trying to put the I think if I remember

425
00:25:28.440 --> 00:25:30.960
it right, the issue of the larger goal.

426
00:25:32.960 --> 00:25:33.480
Of the truth.

427
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:44.119
Yeah, maybe maybe she was just very strategically negotiating something

428
00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:47.079
that was very tricky. So maybe perhaps it wasn't an

429
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:49.799
entire on truth. She just chose her words very carefully

430
00:25:49.839 --> 00:25:59.519
in terms of dealing with the enemy. Perhaps I'm not Yeah, yeah.

431
00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:02.480
That's so, that's okay. I just I found it interesting,

432
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:06.759
you know, because that that uh Terarina did that, but

433
00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:12.319
also with her relationship with Seru, because Tarina is the

434
00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:16.319
one who is basically proposed.

435
00:26:16.799 --> 00:26:19.079
Correct I remember that, and so.

436
00:26:21.319 --> 00:26:26.640
Okay, good, good good. So because we've seen in the

437
00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:31.200
past the different types of aliens, if you will, and

438
00:26:31.759 --> 00:26:34.720
not all of them are always compatible. Like with uh

439
00:26:35.039 --> 00:26:38.119
jed Zia and wharf Had, you know, they were trying

440
00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:40.599
to have a child, but the two species didn't always

441
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:45.519
work together. But with Ceru, what was what was the

442
00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:51.160
I guess the defining moment if you can remember that

443
00:26:51.839 --> 00:26:54.960
Terina said, I just I have to be with this

444
00:26:54.960 --> 00:26:58.759
this individual for the rest of my life.

445
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:02.599
H I think it was after he'd been away on

446
00:27:02.720 --> 00:27:05.480
a mission, wasn't it, And he came back after being

447
00:27:05.480 --> 00:27:09.039
away for quite a long time. And and because both

448
00:27:09.079 --> 00:27:12.039
of them had, you know, they had to to walk

449
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:18.160
this fine line of private versus public, or professional versus private,

450
00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:21.160
and and I think at that point she realized just

451
00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:24.759
how much he meant to her, and that she wasn't

452
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:31.680
really willing to sacrifice the love between them or you know,

453
00:27:31.799 --> 00:27:36.640
her her personal life for the professional and so to

454
00:27:36.720 --> 00:27:42.759
make space for that and room for that moving forward, Yeah, yeah, because.

455
00:27:42.559 --> 00:27:46.119
That was that was just just so beautiful and just

456
00:27:46.200 --> 00:27:49.960
as a romantic I guess anybody that's romantic, I don't

457
00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:52.559
see how anybody couldn't have gotten choked up over that

458
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:54.519
because it was just so sweet.

459
00:27:54.599 --> 00:27:54.799
Yeah.

460
00:27:55.039 --> 00:27:57.200
So just oh yeah, and it's.

461
00:27:57.279 --> 00:28:00.640
That that was just.

462
00:27:59.720 --> 00:28:02.759
That was the writing was so lovely, like it was

463
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:07.440
such an old fashioned sweet romance. It was it was

464
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:10.880
really really fun to play the scenes that they wrote

465
00:28:10.920 --> 00:28:13.279
for us. And I think a whole element of that

466
00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:18.960
situation too is that like Saru was so so shy,

467
00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:22.680
right and sore, so maybe Trina was like, I'll just

468
00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:26.599
cut to the chase because.

469
00:28:28.400 --> 00:28:32.920
Well. And it also shows that love transcends time and

470
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:38.039
you know, it's it's something that's liberal timeless, and so

471
00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:42.160
it's nice to know that there is romance still in

472
00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:47.559
the thirty second century. But one last question, so with

473
00:28:47.640 --> 00:28:54.839
regard because you've probably seen all the per fluffle about

474
00:28:55.519 --> 00:29:02.039
Starfleet Academy being canceled, and I know you had the

475
00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:05.400
shock of having Discovery canceled and they only they had

476
00:29:05.440 --> 00:29:09.839
just finished putting season two in the can have you

477
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:14.720
do you have any sort of relationship with any of

478
00:29:14.759 --> 00:29:19.759
the actors that were on that and like as a

479
00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:22.160
sounding board for them, because that had to be a shock,

480
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:24.440
you know, some of them were this was like their

481
00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:27.279
first major role and then this we loved it, by

482
00:29:27.279 --> 00:29:29.680
the way. It was such a lovely show too. And

483
00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:32.319
I know Discovery had took a while to get its footing,

484
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:36.559
but Starfleet Academy wasn't even allowed to do that, and

485
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:39.920
so just made a lot of us still makes a

486
00:29:39.920 --> 00:29:44.160
lot of us sad. But have you had any conversations.

487
00:29:43.480 --> 00:29:45.240
With me, well, aside from the fact that there's a

488
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:48.079
man who lives in town who was working on the show,

489
00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:50.680
I'm not sure in what capacity. He was in some

490
00:29:50.759 --> 00:29:54.000
kind of administrative role and he was My husband recently

491
00:29:54.039 --> 00:29:56.480
saw him at a party and he was very upset.

492
00:29:57.279 --> 00:30:00.720
He was, Yeah, I think he was, you know, I

493
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:05.160
don't I've heard rumors, but like, did somebody buy the

494
00:30:05.240 --> 00:30:05.960
network that.

495
00:30:07.519 --> 00:30:14.359
Wasn't Like, yeah, there's there's a lot of I guess

496
00:30:14.359 --> 00:30:17.079
the safe way to say, there's a lot of speculation,

497
00:30:17.359 --> 00:30:19.880
but there were lots of there were lots of not

498
00:30:19.960 --> 00:30:23.880
so nice comments online, and there was a lot of

499
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:28.640
like age shaming, body shaming, everything shaming, and so it

500
00:30:28.759 --> 00:30:32.039
was very unfortunate. And as you know, star Trek is

501
00:30:32.039 --> 00:30:37.480
is it's all about you know, infinite verstechnical examinations and

502
00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:42.039
mm hmm. But one thing is for sure that you

503
00:30:42.119 --> 00:30:46.480
and Saru definitely embodied that so and just gave us

504
00:30:46.599 --> 00:30:49.160
just a lot In fact, I need to go back

505
00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:52.160
and watch where Terina proposes to.

506
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:56.720
Him again and just probably you know, just Y, I've

507
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:00.039
done the past years, so it's been pretty.

508
00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:03.759
Pretty well. I mean, it's crazy for all of us.

509
00:31:04.319 --> 00:31:06.759
But like the film and TV industry and the theater

510
00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:09.759
industry are really struggling right now. So my husband and

511
00:31:09.799 --> 00:31:12.240
I have pretty much been in full full hustle mode.

512
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:15.079
And like I've been you know, I've been doing a

513
00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:16.839
bit of directing, I've been doing a bit of acting.

514
00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:20.160
I've been doing so I haven't I haven't actually watched

515
00:31:20.200 --> 00:31:24.920
the show, like I haven't watched very much TV, and

516
00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:28.039
I have to you know, I haven't kept up with

517
00:31:28.200 --> 00:31:30.160
what was happening at all. So I'm really sorry to

518
00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:36.160
hear that. That's that's that's really sad. That's really disheartening. Yeah,

519
00:31:36.720 --> 00:31:39.359
mm hmm, but you know, mm hmmm.

520
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:42.799
Well, I'm gonna I'm gonna stop. I'm not flapping my

521
00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:47.440
arms anymore. So I will pass it. Thanks again, Paul,

522
00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:51.039
So I will pass it on to who wants to

523
00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:56.440
be next Eric or Charles or mixed. Okay, all right, excellent,

524
00:31:58.240 --> 00:31:59.839
I think well, good evening.

525
00:32:01.400 --> 00:32:03.599
One of the things that I one of the things

526
00:32:03.640 --> 00:32:07.799
that caught my attention on you was When talking with Doug,

527
00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:12.279
he talked a little. He mentioned having a theatrical background

528
00:32:13.799 --> 00:32:15.880
and I'm just curious about some of the work you've

529
00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:17.640
done in the theater.

530
00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:19.319
It sounds like you're doing something.

531
00:32:19.400 --> 00:32:22.279
Yeah, I mean I've been kind of I call it

532
00:32:22.400 --> 00:32:24.799
lucky in my career that I've been able to do boats.

533
00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:28.119
I think it's tricky because the timelines are very different,

534
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:31.400
like film and TV kind of books you for tomorrow

535
00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:35.000
and theater books you for six months two year in advance.

536
00:32:35.079 --> 00:32:38.559
So it's it's where I live and Iagua in the lake.

537
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:41.799
There's a very big theater festival called the Shop Festival,

538
00:32:41.839 --> 00:32:45.720
and it's actually three theaters in this sleepy, sleepy, little

539
00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:49.200
tourist town. So I've done a number of seasons at

540
00:32:49.240 --> 00:32:54.240
the Show Festival and I've been very lucky during my

541
00:32:54.319 --> 00:32:57.920
time here. Initially, I came under the previous artistic director,

542
00:32:58.000 --> 00:33:00.839
Jackie Maxwell, who gave me lots of beautiful parts to play,

543
00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:05.279
like Saint Joan or Eliza Doolittle or Alice in Wonderland

544
00:33:05.480 --> 00:33:10.000
or so I I yeah, I had delicious things to play.

545
00:33:10.400 --> 00:33:13.160
I've also done a couple of seasons at the Stratford Festival,

546
00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:15.599
which is about two and a half hours away. So

547
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:20.799
I've worked. I have done Shakespeare. You're right, it was

548
00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:25.559
in Yeah, my first time there. I played violin twelfth

549
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:33.519
Night and played Lysander in midsummer Night's Dream. Yeah, so

550
00:33:33.559 --> 00:33:36.240
I've done the festivals. I also did when I first

551
00:33:36.279 --> 00:33:37.960
got out of school, I did a lot of indie

552
00:33:38.039 --> 00:33:41.599
theater in Toronto, where you do like really bizarre, absurd

553
00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:45.799
plays in church basements and parks, and like, I've kind

554
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:50.519
of done it all, and now I'm actually trying to

555
00:33:50.640 --> 00:33:55.279
forge a career in directing theater. So in twenty twenty four,

556
00:33:55.759 --> 00:33:58.359
I did what's called the intern directorship here at the

557
00:33:58.359 --> 00:34:01.720
Shaw Festival, where you are just you assistant direct on

558
00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:03.960
two plays and then you direct a one act.

559
00:34:03.839 --> 00:34:04.599
Play of your own.

560
00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:12.599
And I found that really really you know, challenging, rewarding, exciting, exhilarating,

561
00:34:12.679 --> 00:34:16.519
all those things. But again, like right now, there's a

562
00:34:16.840 --> 00:34:21.599
serious drought and so even super established directors are having

563
00:34:21.599 --> 00:34:24.920
difficulty getting work, never mind people that are just starting

564
00:34:24.920 --> 00:34:28.159
out in their mid fifties. So I've been lucky. I've

565
00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:30.079
got some stuff coming up, and I've I've done a

566
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:33.679
little bit, but yeah, like right now I'm doing it all.

567
00:34:33.760 --> 00:34:37.639
I'm teaching yoga, I'm trying to line up directing jobs.

568
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:41.039
I'm auditioning for film and TV. It's some theater acting

569
00:34:41.039 --> 00:34:44.480
comes I'll do it. Like it's like you know, which

570
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:45.679
which hat do I wear?

571
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:46.119
Today?

572
00:34:46.719 --> 00:34:51.039
Which is something you know when you start out there's

573
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:56.320
lots of excitement and anticipation and commitment and and motivation,

574
00:34:56.519 --> 00:35:00.599
but you don't exactly anticipate yourself a third years into

575
00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:07.159
your career in full hustle mode, zero security.

576
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:07.800
You wouldn't.

577
00:35:08.079 --> 00:35:10.480
You wouldn't do anything else, right, Like, it's just like,

578
00:35:11.719 --> 00:35:13.360
you know, so I have it. We have a seventeen

579
00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:17.000
year old and and so like we're trying to do

580
00:35:17.079 --> 00:35:20.800
all the things, and and it keeps, keeps things exciting,

581
00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:23.239
keeps life, keeps, keeps you on your toes.

582
00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:30.880
Okay, here's one final question, kind of loaded with it.

583
00:35:31.199 --> 00:35:36.800
What was your favorite favorite favorite stage show you've done,

584
00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:40.039
And what's one that you with the way you've always

585
00:35:40.119 --> 00:35:42.599
wanted to act in or one you wanted.

586
00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:44.559
To direct, my favorite play to act in. That's it.

587
00:35:44.639 --> 00:35:47.599
That's such a hard question because they all they all

588
00:35:47.639 --> 00:35:48.599
become labors of love.

589
00:35:48.679 --> 00:35:51.199
They have to otherwise it's really really hard to get

590
00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:55.440
on the stage. I can tell you that I've really

591
00:35:55.440 --> 00:35:58.760
loved working with a specific director named Peter Hinton, who is,

592
00:35:59.440 --> 00:36:02.480
as far as I'm concerned, he's He's a visionary, bit

593
00:36:02.519 --> 00:36:05.960
of a genius, and he has an incredible esthetic and

594
00:36:06.559 --> 00:36:11.880
an incredible work ethic. And we did a beautiful play

595
00:36:11.880 --> 00:36:14.159
here at the Shaw called When the Rain Stops Falling,

596
00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:16.639
which was actually it was written by Andrew Bovella. I

597
00:36:16.639 --> 00:36:18.559
believe it was a film as well. This descript is

598
00:36:18.679 --> 00:36:26.360
very cinematic about generations and what you inherit. Yeah, the legacy,

599
00:36:26.400 --> 00:36:29.480
whether it's whether it's light or very very dark. And

600
00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:34.760
in this particular circumstances, the inheritance was very dark, the genealogy.

601
00:36:36.360 --> 00:36:40.079
But you know, like I loved playing what I love

602
00:36:40.119 --> 00:36:42.480
playing Saint Joan. I got to play Saint Joan. That

603
00:36:42.599 --> 00:36:45.880
was That was amazing. I would have loved to have

604
00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:50.639
played Blanche Dubois. I love Tennessee Williams. I love all

605
00:36:50.679 --> 00:36:53.079
the dysfunction, I love all the poetry.

606
00:36:53.599 --> 00:36:55.320
I want to direct all his plays.

607
00:36:55.679 --> 00:37:00.480
I yeah, anything anything Williams. Like I did get to

608
00:37:00.519 --> 00:37:02.679
do Laura and Glass Menagerie a long time ago, and

609
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:04.920
I adored, adored that.

610
00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:10.760
Pardon I adore that play. Yeah, I think I think

611
00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:12.480
that's that's a that's a good answer.

612
00:37:12.559 --> 00:37:15.039
Hey, that.

613
00:37:17.039 --> 00:37:22.159
Perfect answer to me. I'm a theater buff. I love

614
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:25.119
getting a live theater, and in fact, one of them

615
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:27.440
I used to. I used to travel for years going

616
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:31.199
out to the Utah Shakespeare Festival, which is a small

617
00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:36.519
college town, but it's a fabulous about several Shakespearean plays.

618
00:37:36.159 --> 00:37:38.320
And Broadways top plays every year.

619
00:37:39.960 --> 00:37:43.400
So I just and then my local stuff that they do.

620
00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:47.400
Thank you very much. I love the answers, David. I

621
00:37:47.400 --> 00:37:49.360
think I got a good question.

622
00:37:50.880 --> 00:38:03.199
Yeah, alright, so, uh well, welcome to a show. And

623
00:38:03.280 --> 00:38:06.639
I just had a quick question about your past work. Okay,

624
00:38:06.719 --> 00:38:10.440
you've done in some other TV shows. I noticed that

625
00:38:10.519 --> 00:38:13.760
you worked in a show called Tech Wars, and I

626
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:15.800
was wondering what was like.

627
00:38:16.039 --> 00:38:18.480
Oh that was I think that was.

628
00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:24.440
I think that was my first professional gig. That was

629
00:38:24.480 --> 00:38:26.840
a long time ago, so I would have been in

630
00:38:26.880 --> 00:38:33.920
my that was like thirty years ago. I didn't actually

631
00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:37.119
really get to meet him. I like I. He was

632
00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:42.800
on set, but we didn't work together. I was playing

633
00:38:43.320 --> 00:38:49.679
the daughter of a politician. I believe that's correct. Yeah, yeah, sorry,

634
00:38:49.679 --> 00:38:51.039
another lunch, Big letdown.

635
00:38:55.719 --> 00:38:56.440
It's okay, I was.

636
00:38:58.039 --> 00:39:01.920
I have seen him. So I saw him, uh when

637
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:06.880
I was the last in Vegas and and yeah, yeah,

638
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:09.199
you know, said hello and try not to bother him

639
00:39:09.199 --> 00:39:09.599
too much.

640
00:39:15.440 --> 00:39:15.719
Cool.

641
00:39:16.760 --> 00:39:20.760
So I did have one more question. I noticed that

642
00:39:21.239 --> 00:39:25.880
I an IMDb paid mentioned something about that you were

643
00:39:25.920 --> 00:39:29.760
working to get some sort of liked Oh.

644
00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:32.159
Huh, so my bio is clearly very old.

645
00:39:33.199 --> 00:39:37.039
Well when I, uh no when, so, I guess I

646
00:39:37.320 --> 00:39:40.760
was forty. I think I was about forty five. I

647
00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:44.239
started studying piano and I and I was very very

648
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:46.679
committed for about four years. And I did my grade

649
00:39:46.760 --> 00:39:50.079
six exam, so I didn't get to grade eight, but

650
00:39:50.119 --> 00:39:54.280
I did, like I would practice an hour to two

651
00:39:54.280 --> 00:39:57.159
hours a day and then I and then I think

652
00:39:57.239 --> 00:39:58.760
I got to the point where I was like, I

653
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:01.880
can't keep this up. This is where ridiculous. And instead

654
00:40:01.880 --> 00:40:04.679
of just practicing fifteen or twenty minutes.

655
00:40:04.440 --> 00:40:08.000
To day, I just stopped playing. So unfortunately I haven't

656
00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:09.599
been playing the piano. But I loved it.

657
00:40:09.639 --> 00:40:13.400
My mom My mom is actually a music therapist, So

658
00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:16.360
I grew up with music around me all the time.

659
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:20.880
Yeah, yeah, nice, uh huh.

660
00:40:21.079 --> 00:40:21.280
Yeah.

661
00:40:21.519 --> 00:40:24.920
My family loved music, so do you play music question?

662
00:40:30.880 --> 00:40:37.360
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll try to update my bio.

663
00:40:41.039 --> 00:40:53.199
Okay, yeah, okay, well a Vulcans would say, okay, and

664
00:40:53.199 --> 00:40:54.480
I'm going to send us over the air.

665
00:40:56.280 --> 00:41:02.159
Hi, Tara, you've you're almost running the gauntlet of trexperts here.

666
00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:03.719
Hopefully you're having a good time now.

667
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:07.519
Yeah, I just want to echo some of what some

668
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:09.239
of the other trexports have said in terms of the

669
00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:12.920
sweetness of the relationship between Tina and Saru. It was

670
00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:17.679
something that really hit me about the show they I

671
00:41:17.840 --> 00:41:19.679
One of the things I said to Doug was that

672
00:41:20.280 --> 00:41:22.239
I thought it was a great example of what a

673
00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:25.800
really healthy relationship looks like. And I think the more

674
00:41:25.840 --> 00:41:29.840
that we can display that type of stuff on television

675
00:41:30.440 --> 00:41:34.199
alongside all the other stuff we get, right, the more

676
00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:36.199
we can put that out into the universe, so to speak,

677
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:38.599
I think the better off will be. And so thank

678
00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:42.960
you for being a positive, you know, part of that

679
00:41:44.159 --> 00:41:52.360
relationship contra television. Yeah, I am curious now that you're

680
00:41:52.559 --> 00:41:54.960
you're done with Star Trek, do you maintain any sort

681
00:41:55.000 --> 00:41:57.119
of connection to the Star Treks.

682
00:41:57.639 --> 00:41:59.360
The only person well know, there's a couple.

683
00:41:59.440 --> 00:42:02.360
So whenever I'm in Vancouver, I always look up Taila

684
00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:07.119
because I Chaila is in She's another really beautiful human

685
00:42:07.199 --> 00:42:09.760
and I loved working with her. It was very brief,

686
00:42:10.599 --> 00:42:12.320
so I will hang out with her and text her

687
00:42:12.320 --> 00:42:15.440
from time to time. And I message Dug from time

688
00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:19.480
to time as well. But that's about it. Like, yeah,

689
00:42:19.519 --> 00:42:22.199
I think that's uh. Those are the only two people

690
00:42:22.199 --> 00:42:25.000
that I keep in touch with regularly or somewhat regularly.

691
00:42:25.280 --> 00:42:25.480
Yeah.

692
00:42:27.239 --> 00:42:29.400
Oh, David, David Thomlinson, he.

693
00:42:29.400 --> 00:42:36.960
Lives in Toronto's the sweetest well he and Doug. Yeah,

694
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:40.960
he's a lovely, lovely human. So from time to time

695
00:42:41.000 --> 00:42:43.119
we contact each other as well.

696
00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:48.039
That's fantastic.

697
00:42:48.119 --> 00:42:50.880
Well, no, you did not know them soon before Star

698
00:42:50.960 --> 00:42:56.400
Trek right, so that yeah, yeah, uh did you? So

699
00:42:56.559 --> 00:42:58.599
you know three of us on the podcast here are

700
00:42:58.639 --> 00:43:00.480
We live in Portland, so we're part of this you know,

701
00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:01.800
Pacific Northwest culture.

702
00:43:02.559 --> 00:43:05.920
I was actually going to Seattle, but I grew up yeah,

703
00:43:05.960 --> 00:43:09.880
all over Vancouver, well, Oliver, BC, mostly Vancouver.

704
00:43:10.159 --> 00:43:18.599
Yeah, okay, Well, greetings from the Pacific Northwest. I know

705
00:43:19.519 --> 00:43:21.159
a lot of us really like it up here. I

706
00:43:21.199 --> 00:43:23.840
know you're out in Ontario now. I've actually got some

707
00:43:23.880 --> 00:43:26.559
family out there too, and that's also a very beautiful

708
00:43:26.559 --> 00:43:31.119
part of North America as well. Uh okay, So pivoting away,

709
00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:32.719
I guess a little bit from Star Trek. I want

710
00:43:32.719 --> 00:43:36.920
to ask you about another sci fi franchise which you

711
00:43:37.000 --> 00:43:39.480
just sort of glanced by, but you did get to

712
00:43:39.519 --> 00:43:43.280
participate in. You were in an episode of The Expanse

713
00:43:43.800 --> 00:43:47.559
and I know that that is a television series and

714
00:43:47.639 --> 00:43:50.199
a series of books that mean a lot to you know,

715
00:43:50.400 --> 00:43:52.840
two people, and they they really dig on and so

716
00:43:52.880 --> 00:43:54.800
I just wanted to ask you about your experience.

717
00:43:54.800 --> 00:43:57.320
How did you get involved on that? What was it

718
00:43:57.400 --> 00:43:58.440
like being on the set?

719
00:43:58.719 --> 00:43:58.840
Uh?

720
00:43:59.639 --> 00:44:01.039
You know, was it like, I.

721
00:44:01.079 --> 00:44:01.760
Wasn't that long?

722
00:44:01.840 --> 00:44:03.719
I think it was. I think it was a couple

723
00:44:03.760 --> 00:44:09.719
of days. Was it Agent Adams or I remember? Uh yeah,

724
00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:12.519
Well it was a bit stressful because I was speaking

725
00:44:12.599 --> 00:44:16.880
mumbo jumbo, you know, like all that technical sci fi

726
00:44:16.960 --> 00:44:18.960
mumbo jumble that I was trying. I think she had

727
00:44:19.000 --> 00:44:20.519
a bit of a monologue, so I was like, oh

728
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:24.880
my god, god, you know this, this was this That

729
00:44:25.119 --> 00:44:29.440
was nice? What else can I tell you about it?

730
00:44:31.079 --> 00:44:34.039
That was a good experience. Yea, yeah, it was quite

731
00:44:34.039 --> 00:44:35.599
a while ago, and I think there was only just

732
00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:37.400
a couple of days, one in the boardroom and one

733
00:44:37.480 --> 00:44:40.199
in a kind of a group meeting or something in

734
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:43.719
an auditorium, I think, yeah, yeah.

735
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:49.480
Okay, okay, well thanks for that. I guess what I'll

736
00:44:49.519 --> 00:44:51.320
do is I'll kind of pivot over to life. So

737
00:44:51.360 --> 00:44:54.440
I always like to kind of step outside of your

738
00:44:54.440 --> 00:44:56.760
professional career and just ask you a little bit about

739
00:44:56.800 --> 00:44:59.480
what you like to do, so you know, if you

740
00:44:59.559 --> 00:45:01.559
have I know, you say you have no free time

741
00:45:01.639 --> 00:45:04.599
right now because you're you're working the system right now,

742
00:45:04.679 --> 00:45:07.559
try to you know, But if you do have free

743
00:45:07.559 --> 00:45:09.760
time and you're just sort of chilling by yourself on

744
00:45:09.800 --> 00:45:10.599
a weekend.

745
00:45:10.239 --> 00:45:12.679
Oh well, I love walking my dog. I love being outside.

746
00:45:12.719 --> 00:45:16.800
I'm a bit of an environmentalist, So I and and

747
00:45:16.800 --> 00:45:18.880
and was really grateful that we were here during the

748
00:45:18.920 --> 00:45:21.840
pandemic because there's tons of green space. I don't any

749
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:26.519
of you familiar with Niagro on the lake. Yeah, yeah,

750
00:45:26.519 --> 00:45:30.079
so it's very, you know, relatively small town is growing

751
00:45:30.239 --> 00:45:34.440
crazily right now. But yeah, so lots of woods, lots

752
00:45:34.480 --> 00:45:39.360
of green space. Yeah, love walking the dog. What else

753
00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:41.280
do I like to do? I like hanging with my

754
00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:43.280
daughter when she'll let me, but she's seventeen.

755
00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:46.519
So sometimes when I.

756
00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:51.599
Get there and and well, you know, but when I can,

757
00:45:51.840 --> 00:45:54.880
I do, because I've only got a year and a

758
00:45:54.880 --> 00:45:59.519
half longer with her before she heads off into wherever

759
00:45:59.559 --> 00:46:04.159
she goes to study it. Because whenever I suggest a

760
00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:06.800
gap here, she tells me no because she'll fall behind

761
00:46:06.920 --> 00:46:10.519
whatever that means. So I think I think she's set

762
00:46:10.599 --> 00:46:12.519
to depart. What else do I do? I ride my

763
00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:22.679
bike a lot. I like to uh make things with botanicals.

764
00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:25.320
I don't mean like I'm not talking about like smoking

765
00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:34.239
and testing. At one point I wanted to open a

766
00:46:34.280 --> 00:46:38.079
botanical cafe where you could like decorate things, decorate cupcakes

767
00:46:38.079 --> 00:46:43.639
with violets and lilacs and yeah, and if I'm if

768
00:46:43.679 --> 00:46:46.440
I'm feeling common enough, I like to read you know,

769
00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:54.719
it's uh yeah, mm hmm. You know what, even though

770
00:46:54.760 --> 00:46:57.280
I claim to be an environmentalist, my husband's a gardener.

771
00:46:58.079 --> 00:47:01.679
So yeah, yeah, he's actually been out the past couple

772
00:47:01.719 --> 00:47:06.480
of days. He's been tending to all the plants, putting

773
00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:09.000
new things in the ground. I think he planted garlic

774
00:47:09.199 --> 00:47:11.400
so that will be exciting to the harvest.

775
00:47:11.559 --> 00:47:19.920
Yeah, tis the time of year. Well, I you know,

776
00:47:20.000 --> 00:47:23.639
one other person sort of mentioned. I think the fact

777
00:47:23.679 --> 00:47:27.480
that I think actresses like you who play just really

778
00:47:27.519 --> 00:47:31.440
strong characters and who embody their characters really strongly are

779
00:47:31.480 --> 00:47:35.239
a great example, especially for young women out there who

780
00:47:35.239 --> 00:47:36.800
are maybe coming up in the industry.

781
00:47:36.800 --> 00:47:38.280
And I'm just wondering if.

782
00:47:38.159 --> 00:47:41.880
You, you know, if you had to give one piece

783
00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:45.599
of advice to a young aspiring actress out there, you know,

784
00:47:45.719 --> 00:47:48.719
she's trying to figure out what to do, where to go,

785
00:47:49.320 --> 00:47:51.599
how to get into the business. Is there any piece

786
00:47:51.639 --> 00:47:55.280
of advice that you would offer to that person to

787
00:47:55.719 --> 00:47:56.559
help them succeed.

788
00:47:58.400 --> 00:48:00.559
There's a couple of things. But what I'll say is

789
00:48:00.599 --> 00:48:03.960
because it's I can sorry, I can hear myself on

790
00:48:03.960 --> 00:48:09.039
the feedback because I'm navigating this currently right now, is

791
00:48:09.920 --> 00:48:14.599
you can manifest. If you put things out into the universe,

792
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:20.360
you can manifest your dreams. I do also say that

793
00:48:20.480 --> 00:48:22.519
only act if there's nothing else you want to do,

794
00:48:22.639 --> 00:48:26.639
because it's not easy. And like you know, right now,

795
00:48:27.199 --> 00:48:29.320
my husband and I were just talking, the industry is

796
00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:32.920
so slow. So we've like done you know, thirty he's

797
00:48:32.960 --> 00:48:36.199
done even more auditions with no bookings, Like it's really

798
00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:42.440
it gets really really hard, and there's no security and

799
00:48:42.480 --> 00:48:44.159
all that stuff I was talking about earlier.

800
00:48:44.199 --> 00:48:45.920
So only do it if there's nothing else you want

801
00:48:45.960 --> 00:48:46.199
to do.

802
00:48:46.639 --> 00:48:50.719
But but put it out there, put your dreams out

803
00:48:50.719 --> 00:48:54.840
into the universe. And and I've witnessed or I've I've

804
00:48:54.880 --> 00:49:02.119
experienced the universe responding responding to that. Yeah.

805
00:49:02.679 --> 00:49:07.639
If it sounds it sounds like hokey pokey, but I'm.

806
00:49:06.960 --> 00:49:11.719
Really yeah, it's beautiful people of manifesting things in our life.

807
00:49:11.920 --> 00:49:12.840
I truly believe that.

808
00:49:13.199 --> 00:49:13.400
Yah.

809
00:49:16.760 --> 00:49:19.599
Yeah, And I think there's I mean, I think there's

810
00:49:19.639 --> 00:49:21.119
good scientific evidence for that.

811
00:49:21.320 --> 00:49:21.519
You know.

812
00:49:21.679 --> 00:49:27.079
I think, you know, people invent the things that they're

813
00:49:27.079 --> 00:49:29.960
thinking about. And so if they're thinking about positive things

814
00:49:30.000 --> 00:49:32.119
and they're thinking about the person next to them, and

815
00:49:32.119 --> 00:49:35.000
they're thinking about responsibility.

816
00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:37.960
To go to yeah, to survive.

817
00:49:38.000 --> 00:49:40.599
I think we all really need to consider that right now,

818
00:49:40.639 --> 00:49:43.519
about how we create our own reality through the power

819
00:49:43.519 --> 00:49:44.039
of our mind.

820
00:49:44.239 --> 00:49:44.440
Yeah.

821
00:49:45.079 --> 00:49:51.639
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, Wow, what a what a great

822
00:49:52.119 --> 00:49:52.840
way to do that.

823
00:49:53.000 --> 00:49:55.159
Orson of the interview, Thank you so much, Tara. That

824
00:49:55.320 --> 00:49:56.119
was fantastic.

825
00:49:56.679 --> 00:49:59.480
I am manifesting all of the good things right now.

826
00:50:01.679 --> 00:50:03.559
It was very lovely to talk to you. Thank you

827
00:50:03.639 --> 00:50:06.440
so much for being you and for playing such a

828
00:50:06.480 --> 00:50:09.000
cool character in Star Trek that so many people could.

829
00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:09.639
Okay with.

830
00:50:14.960 --> 00:50:20.199
Daughter realize.

831
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:23.360
Me and my husband like, she's like, yeah, we're We're

832
00:50:24.360 --> 00:50:26.360
She has no interest in being an artist, I think

833
00:50:26.400 --> 00:50:28.840
because she's seen the way that we live, although she

834
00:50:29.800 --> 00:50:31.719
did do theater when she was young and she has

835
00:50:31.760 --> 00:50:34.920
stage presents, like she's beautiful on stage, but she's not

836
00:50:35.000 --> 00:50:35.320
at all.

837
00:50:35.519 --> 00:50:35.679
No.

838
00:50:36.000 --> 00:50:39.679
I think she's more kind of embarrassed by her artsy parents.

839
00:50:40.880 --> 00:50:41.599
Plus the fact that.

840
00:50:41.639 --> 00:50:44.800
We're probably significantly older because I had Eliana when I

841
00:50:44.840 --> 00:50:48.000
was thirty nine, so we're significantly older than most of

842
00:50:48.039 --> 00:50:49.559
her friend's parents.

843
00:50:49.679 --> 00:50:52.440
So we're just like she's like staying.

844
00:50:54.239 --> 00:50:56.880
No, when she's older, she'll realize how cool we are,

845
00:50:57.760 --> 00:51:01.239
you know, in retrospect, she'll be like, yeah, damn, damn,

846
00:51:01.280 --> 00:51:02.440
my parents are really cool.

847
00:51:02.519 --> 00:51:07.159
But no, she mm, well, if I can say, being

848
00:51:07.199 --> 00:51:12.119
an older mother myself, yes she will. She will come

849
00:51:12.159 --> 00:51:15.519
to the point where she says, wow, my parents are awesome,

850
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:21.039
and that will make hopefully make up for ignoring you.

851
00:51:21.280 --> 00:51:24.920
And I also have to say, like, you know, as

852
00:51:24.920 --> 00:51:28.480
a as a mother, what you get witnessing their evolution

853
00:51:28.639 --> 00:51:31.679
and seeing what a good, what a what an incredible

854
00:51:31.679 --> 00:51:33.639
person she is I'm like, you know, if we're two

855
00:51:33.639 --> 00:51:36.960
such losers, we wouldn't be capable of creating such a

856
00:51:37.000 --> 00:51:37.719
great being.

857
00:51:38.199 --> 00:51:39.800
Stuck on that kid, like.

858
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:46.599
That's true, it's evidence of your awesomeness.

859
00:51:46.679 --> 00:51:52.559
Again, little biased, she's mine, but yeah they're good, good

860
00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:54.880
human yeah.

861
00:51:56.239 --> 00:52:01.239
Hh yeah that comes from somewhere. So I goes to

862
00:52:01.280 --> 00:52:02.039
you and your husband.

863
00:52:03.320 --> 00:52:13.199
Yeah, so would you talk a little bit about Yeah.

864
00:52:11.400 --> 00:52:15.880
So the thing with I mean, I think Star Trek

865
00:52:15.920 --> 00:52:19.199
and a number of shows they don't often go under

866
00:52:19.239 --> 00:52:22.239
their own name, so of course there's like some kind

867
00:52:22.239 --> 00:52:27.480
of I think it was called Tennessee Honey. I can

868
00:52:27.559 --> 00:52:29.159
called and said, you have an audition for a show

869
00:52:29.199 --> 00:52:34.599
called Tennessee Honey, but it's really Star Trek. And then uh, yeah,

870
00:52:34.599 --> 00:52:36.800
So I did a good old fashioned audition and the

871
00:52:36.880 --> 00:52:40.360
sides weren't even accurate. I think they wrote bogus sides

872
00:52:40.400 --> 00:52:42.559
because they just wanted to see who was out there.

873
00:52:42.719 --> 00:52:47.519
It was for an admiral, she wasn't a vulcan. So

874
00:52:47.559 --> 00:52:50.800
I did the audition and then my agent called and

875
00:52:50.840 --> 00:52:54.880
he said, uh, they want to they're wondering if you'll

876
00:52:54.920 --> 00:52:55.400
come in.

877
00:52:55.280 --> 00:52:58.239
For a some kind of a test.

878
00:52:58.599 --> 00:53:01.800
And at that point I hadn't been offered anything or

879
00:53:01.880 --> 00:53:04.760
booked anything, and I was like, okay, I guess so,

880
00:53:05.599 --> 00:53:07.440
even though it was pretty vague. I think it might

881
00:53:07.440 --> 00:53:09.960
have been about the prosthetics or something. I'm not sure.

882
00:53:10.920 --> 00:53:15.280
So I was heading into the city for this meeting

883
00:53:15.360 --> 00:53:16.679
or whatever. And by the time I got there, my

884
00:53:16.719 --> 00:53:18.280
age and called me and said you've been offered the part.

885
00:53:19.599 --> 00:53:22.920
I was like, okay, great, and then sorry, that's my dog.

886
00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:24.559
She's very my.

887
00:53:24.559 --> 00:53:25.119
Dog, Molly.

888
00:53:27.199 --> 00:53:29.760
But it wasn't until I got the script. Like you know,

889
00:53:29.800 --> 00:53:32.400
a week before you shoot, you get the script and

890
00:53:32.440 --> 00:53:35.119
then I and then I'm like, oh my god, I'm

891
00:53:35.440 --> 00:53:38.280
I'm I'm I'm the leader of the like I'm a

892
00:53:38.400 --> 00:53:40.840
leader of a I'm a vulcan. I'm a.

893
00:53:42.440 --> 00:53:43.440
And I will want.

894
00:53:43.320 --> 00:53:44.920
To say, oh my god, I have all these I

895
00:53:44.960 --> 00:53:47.639
got to learn all these lines and I so it

896
00:53:47.679 --> 00:53:50.800
was quite a big surprise when I got the script.

897
00:53:50.880 --> 00:53:54.000
In terms of I always find that very puzzling as

898
00:53:54.000 --> 00:53:57.320
an actor. It's it's like the people, the people, the

899
00:53:57.320 --> 00:53:59.920
powers that be, think somehow that the less information they

900
00:54:00.039 --> 00:54:02.440
give us the better, when it's in fact the opposite,

901
00:54:02.679 --> 00:54:06.400
like the more informed we are the better job too,

902
00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:12.559
Like you know anyway, So it was all a fantastic surprise.

903
00:54:12.599 --> 00:54:16.000
But yeah, it was a pretty standard generic audition process,

904
00:54:16.360 --> 00:54:18.320
although when I did go on set, because at that

905
00:54:18.360 --> 00:54:22.320
point they were still doing table reads because now it's

906
00:54:22.440 --> 00:54:26.280
still it's the it's a holdover from the pandemic there

907
00:54:26.320 --> 00:54:29.719
a lot of them are on Zoom still. The director

908
00:54:29.800 --> 00:54:35.280
for that episode was Oh don't feel me now, memory John.

909
00:54:36.840 --> 00:54:39.320
He was the editor for a series I.

910
00:54:39.199 --> 00:54:41.639
Had just worked on called Impulse, So I think that

911
00:54:41.800 --> 00:54:45.840
he he either vouched for me, or he asked for

912
00:54:45.920 --> 00:54:48.400
me to audition, or he had some kind of influence

913
00:54:48.440 --> 00:54:53.079
in terms of me me me auditioning for that part

914
00:54:53.480 --> 00:54:55.159
because he was directing that episode.

915
00:54:55.559 --> 00:55:08.559
John John Dukowski, Is that right? M hm, Well that's

916
00:55:08.559 --> 00:55:10.159
what the Internet's given me right now.

917
00:55:10.159 --> 00:55:16.000
And editor Star Trek Discovery Sawski, Yes, okay, I thought

918
00:55:16.000 --> 00:55:21.239
you said that's right. He's a super lovely guy, really

919
00:55:21.239 --> 00:55:25.159
really lovely guy. Yeah, So that there was that that

920
00:55:25.239 --> 00:55:32.480
was there was that tie over for me. Okay.

921
00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:35.400
So we have a question from our chat room, Uh,

922
00:55:35.800 --> 00:55:38.239
real quick here, what was the one.

923
00:55:38.079 --> 00:55:40.559
Of the most challenging scenes that you had to shoot

924
00:55:40.599 --> 00:55:41.840
on Star Trek Discovery.

925
00:55:44.239 --> 00:55:50.599
Hm hmm, most challenging scenes. I mean, I was pretty

926
00:55:50.599 --> 00:55:54.480
intimidated when I had to do a mind meld, just

927
00:55:54.639 --> 00:55:56.440
kind of getting out of my own mind.

928
00:55:58.599 --> 00:55:59.000
Uh.

929
00:55:59.039 --> 00:56:00.719
And that's a that's a thing that I did do

930
00:56:00.760 --> 00:56:02.719
a little bit of research for and found out that

931
00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:07.320
in fact, there are there are different kinds of fingerings

932
00:56:07.360 --> 00:56:12.400
when people when the Volcans do my melds, and it's difficult.

933
00:56:18.119 --> 00:56:23.400
Hm hmm. I can that's a good question. I can

934
00:56:23.440 --> 00:56:25.440
say when I felt robbed, and that was in the

935
00:56:25.519 --> 00:56:27.000
last episode that I did.

936
00:56:26.800 --> 00:56:29.079
In season five, and they didn't do the whole wedding,

937
00:56:34.400 --> 00:56:35.400
that was difficult.

938
00:56:41.880 --> 00:56:44.280
Yeah, I'm sorry.

939
00:56:44.280 --> 00:56:46.599
I don't have like something that comes to mind right

940
00:56:46.639 --> 00:56:47.280
away on that.

941
00:56:53.760 --> 00:56:55.920
Yeah, it was pretty when we when I read the script,

942
00:56:55.960 --> 00:56:57.519
I was like, really, we just get a bit of

943
00:56:57.519 --> 00:57:00.559
the reception. But yeah, you know, time, time, his money,

944
00:57:00.679 --> 00:57:06.239
so they say, yeah, yeah.

945
00:57:06.519 --> 00:57:08.840
Well one more question. Oh.

946
00:57:08.880 --> 00:57:09.800
I loved working with him.

947
00:57:09.800 --> 00:57:12.039
I only got to work with him once the Legendary

948
00:57:13.519 --> 00:57:17.880
because he's an actor's director, so like off and on set,

949
00:57:18.639 --> 00:57:20.599
I find that you don't get a lot of direction.

950
00:57:21.360 --> 00:57:23.960
There's mostly technical. It's about in terms of the frame

951
00:57:24.480 --> 00:57:26.840
and every once in a while a director will actually

952
00:57:26.840 --> 00:57:28.800
come and talk to you about what you're playing or

953
00:57:28.800 --> 00:57:32.840
what you're doing in the scene. And Jonathan was definitely

954
00:57:33.079 --> 00:57:36.000
one of those people and so passionate about the work

955
00:57:36.159 --> 00:57:38.519
and super warm, super funny.

956
00:57:38.599 --> 00:57:40.679
He was a delight. He was a treat to work with.

957
00:57:41.760 --> 00:57:50.800
Yeah, excellent. And with that, all right, we're done. We

958
00:57:51.239 --> 00:57:52.800
made it.

959
00:57:54.480 --> 00:57:58.880
A pleas. It was lovely to me while and yeah, yeah.

960
00:57:59.599 --> 00:58:02.119
Yes, yes, thank you.

961
00:58:06.400 --> 00:58:14.760
Ross, Thanks, thank you, good night.

962
00:58:16.480 --> 00:58:21.119
All right, So there we have it, guys. Let's see.

963
00:58:21.360 --> 00:58:24.079
Let me get to my notes, and I believe.

964
00:58:25.280 --> 00:58:30.360
Yeah, so we're gonna dive right into our fan shout outs.

965
00:58:30.400 --> 00:58:33.280
I believe that we have Eric for a little bit here,

966
00:58:33.320 --> 00:58:34.480
don't we.

967
00:58:34.480 --> 00:58:35.320
We do not know.

968
00:58:35.440 --> 00:58:37.480
I'm gonna go ahead and let Paul take these ones.

969
00:58:37.519 --> 00:58:39.599
I'm sorry, I have to bust out of here, guys,

970
00:58:39.599 --> 00:58:46.000
but I'm going to see some theater tonight. So thank you,

971
00:58:46.239 --> 00:58:47.039
thank you so much.

972
00:58:47.119 --> 00:58:49.639
I will talk to you guys soon. We'll see fans.

973
00:58:49.960 --> 00:58:51.760
Thanks for doing us by.

974
00:58:52.519 --> 00:58:54.719
All right, Paul, when I just you're gonna you're gonna

975
00:58:54.800 --> 00:58:56.880
jump in and get us started out of our fan

976
00:58:57.280 --> 00:58:58.800
shout outs for this week.

977
00:58:59.320 --> 00:59:02.000
Okay, what you like, friends, That works for me. I'll

978
00:59:02.079 --> 00:59:03.639
jump right in here because I know time.

979
00:59:03.519 --> 00:59:05.159
Is money, as our guests just explained.

980
00:59:05.239 --> 00:59:08.039
So first of all, let's say hello to a fan,

981
00:59:08.239 --> 00:59:12.920
Martin van Ogtur and in the Netherlands, because you know what,

982
00:59:13.000 --> 00:59:15.320
We've got fans all over the place that love not

983
00:59:15.440 --> 00:59:18.000
just Star Trek but science fiction. So Martin is saying

984
00:59:18.000 --> 00:59:22.400
hello to us from the Netherlands, flag probably displayed there.

985
00:59:22.440 --> 00:59:26.199
Great to know that you're out there, Martin. Our guests

986
00:59:26.239 --> 00:59:29.039
just came from Canada, is where she hails from originally,

987
00:59:29.119 --> 00:59:34.440
and here from province unnamed, we have Eric Brunette Brunet.

988
00:59:34.760 --> 00:59:37.719
More likely it is my guest from Canada. Great to

989
00:59:37.719 --> 00:59:41.519
hear from you on the bottom of the planet though

990
00:59:41.559 --> 00:59:43.280
they think they're on top, because you know, it's all

991
00:59:43.360 --> 00:59:47.079
matter of perspective. Right in Australia, Sandra Simmons is saying

992
00:59:47.079 --> 00:59:49.440
hello to us, So Hello, Sandra. Great to hear that

993
00:59:49.519 --> 00:59:52.360
you're down there in Australia where things get really interesting,

994
00:59:52.440 --> 00:59:56.960
all kinds of wild adventures at your door there. And

995
00:59:57.079 --> 01:00:01.960
in France we have Nader Hashemane there. I hope I'm

996
01:00:01.960 --> 01:00:06.119
pronouncing your name properly there, Nadir, but it's great to

997
01:00:06.239 --> 01:00:08.280
hear from you as well. I have some other ones

998
01:00:08.280 --> 01:00:12.519
down the road here, I'll get to real quickly. In Franconia, Germany.

999
01:00:12.679 --> 01:00:16.000
I love the name of that Franconia. It just sounds phenomenal.

1000
01:00:16.280 --> 01:00:20.400
Klaus Conibauer is saying hello, proudly displaying his love of

1001
01:00:20.440 --> 01:00:24.440
all things Navarre and Vulcan. There glat to hear from you, Klaus.

1002
01:00:25.440 --> 01:00:28.880
I think this next one is also in Germany as well.

1003
01:00:29.360 --> 01:00:33.719
My flag fluency is a little fuzzy today, if you will.

1004
01:00:34.280 --> 01:00:37.639
But Tony Lawless is saying hello to us from her Zebirga,

1005
01:00:37.800 --> 01:00:40.519
and I'm pretty sure that's Germany as well. I'll have

1006
01:00:40.559 --> 01:00:44.000
to check that out later. Sorry, I'm thrust into this unprepared.

1007
01:00:44.119 --> 01:00:47.360
Usually we're so prepared on this podcast tonight, I'm letting

1008
01:00:47.400 --> 01:00:53.679
everyone down. Terrible, terrible, terrible example, in Corkiano in Italy,

1009
01:00:53.840 --> 01:00:57.800
it's Agnes Kunyik is saying hello. Kunyik sounds more like

1010
01:00:57.840 --> 01:01:00.719
a German name. So you have a very international, osmopolitan

1011
01:01:00.760 --> 01:01:03.239
mix of people in different nationalities that love science fiction.

1012
01:01:03.320 --> 01:01:07.119
Isn't that amazing? But Agnes Kunyuk is saying hello. And

1013
01:01:07.159 --> 01:01:10.960
then finally for me here from the great Land of Serbia,

1014
01:01:11.000 --> 01:01:14.800
Alexander Keith is saying Hello, Hello, Alexander. It's great to

1015
01:01:14.840 --> 01:01:18.400
hear from you, and thanks again for letting us know, friends,

1016
01:01:18.480 --> 01:01:22.159
wherever you may be, whatever longitude or latitude that you straddle,

1017
01:01:22.599 --> 01:01:25.719
that you are fans of Star Trek and science fiction.

1018
01:01:25.880 --> 01:01:29.039
It is comforting in these crazy times to know that

1019
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:30.920
there are folks all over the planet who have a

1020
01:01:31.000 --> 01:01:34.719
lot in common. And I think that that's a gratifying message.

1021
01:01:34.760 --> 01:01:37.360
So I'm going to pass that back over to u V.

1022
01:01:37.639 --> 01:01:39.599
And I know you've got a lot of arm flapping

1023
01:01:39.639 --> 01:01:42.119
fans that you want to be able to say hello. Well,

1024
01:01:45.559 --> 01:01:50.559
I remember reported I calmed down. Yeah, this is a

1025
01:01:50.599 --> 01:01:53.760
lot of broadcast, so just you know, don't.

1026
01:01:53.639 --> 01:01:55.440
Rattle, all right.

1027
01:01:55.480 --> 01:01:58.000
I have to be serious now because I am so

1028
01:01:58.079 --> 01:02:03.840
thankful for these folks who have said hello to us

1029
01:02:03.880 --> 01:02:08.079
from wherever they live and they hopefully watch the podcast.

1030
01:02:08.119 --> 01:02:13.079
But first, I have Matthew Leone who is hailing from Miami,

The Phillies are doing worse than the Mets, and that's

1073
01:04:57.440 --> 01:05:01.079

first seasons of Happy Days.

1113
01:07:58.639 --> 01:08:01.400
Okay, I forgot put on the list, and some of

1114
01:08:01.440 --> 01:08:04.880
the fans on our Facebook page called me out on it,

1115
01:08:04.920 --> 01:08:08.239
and I couldn't get the change made in time for

1116
01:08:08.280 --> 01:08:09.360
tonight's podcast.

1117
01:08:09.920 --> 01:08:16.760
But he also played Eric in Willow and I.

1118
01:08:16.760 --> 01:08:19.760
Forgot to put that on there, and I apologize and

1119
01:08:19.800 --> 01:08:22.159
thank you to the fans that caught that called me

1120
01:08:22.199 --> 01:08:22.920
out on that.

1121
01:08:23.039 --> 01:08:27.640
So well, you could have snuck that in the notes, Jim.

1122
01:08:27.760 --> 01:08:33.359
But all right, all right, so I think, well.

1123
01:08:33.239 --> 01:08:36.960
I'm going to take this nice candle and carefully pass

1124
01:08:37.039 --> 01:08:42.399
it over the v so she doesn't drop the candle. Thanks,

1125
01:08:42.439 --> 01:08:45.119
I feel, and she's gonna enjoy her first birthday.

1126
01:08:45.520 --> 01:08:51.239
Yes, I am now Chuck Cunningham. That was the famous

1127
01:08:52.039 --> 01:08:57.720
sibling of of Richie Cunningham that went upstairs one time

1128
01:08:57.880 --> 01:09:01.479
and he never returned. So the child that disappeared of

1129
01:09:01.640 --> 01:09:04.720
the Cunningham family. That was a little weird fun fact.

1130
01:09:05.359 --> 01:09:11.600
But I'm going to say Happy birthday to Jack Quaid,

1131
01:09:12.319 --> 01:09:17.119
the actor who voiced Brad Boimler in Lower Decks. He

1132
01:09:17.159 --> 01:09:20.159
reprised the role in one of my favorite episodes on

1133
01:09:20.279 --> 01:09:24.840
Strange New Worlds, those Old Scientists. And he is the

1134
01:09:24.880 --> 01:09:30.800
son of two wonderful actors. Dennis Quaid is his dad

1135
01:09:31.239 --> 01:09:35.000
and Meg Ryan is his mom. I feel old because

1136
01:09:35.000 --> 01:09:39.720
I remember when he was born. So Boemler is definitely

1137
01:09:39.720 --> 01:09:44.279
one of my favorite characters. Next, Happy birthday to Emily

1138
01:09:44.680 --> 01:09:48.960
Ann bergie Is. She's the actress who played Bethany in

1139
01:09:49.000 --> 01:09:53.920
the enterprise third season episode north Star. She was born

1140
01:09:54.079 --> 01:10:00.239
in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England, to an English father and

1141
01:10:00.439 --> 01:10:07.000
an Irish mother. Next day, Happy birthday to Olivia Berkland.

1142
01:10:07.800 --> 01:10:12.800
She portrayed engineer Marla Gilmour on Voyager fifth and six

1143
01:10:13.079 --> 01:10:20.239
season episodes Equinox and Equinox Part Two, very intense episodes.

1144
01:10:21.239 --> 01:10:25.119
Next to Happy Birthday goes to Michael Rivkin, who played

1145
01:10:25.640 --> 01:10:31.600

1149
01:10:47.800 --> 01:10:52.000
Shum Junior. He's a Costa Rican actor who voiced raw

1150
01:10:52.079 --> 01:10:58.520
Da in the Lower Decks third season episode Mathematically Perfect

1151
01:10:58.720 --> 01:11:01.520
Redemption did a great job in that he was hilarious.

1152
01:11:02.279 --> 01:11:04.840
And then last but not least in Somebody who I

1153
01:11:04.880 --> 01:11:07.800
got to meet last year, and my head almost exploded

1154
01:11:07.880 --> 01:11:14.560
because she is a legend, The one and only. Kate Mulgrew,

1155
01:11:15.359 --> 01:11:19.520
of course, best known for playing Captain Catherine Janeway on

1156
01:11:19.680 --> 01:11:23.840
Voyager End Prodigy. Since stepping into the role of a

1157
01:11:23.880 --> 01:11:27.640
Starfleet captain, she's been part of the main cast in

1158
01:11:27.720 --> 01:11:30.479
the series Orange is the New Black, for which she

1159
01:11:30.600 --> 01:11:35.600
received an Emmy nomination her Outstanding Supporting Actress in a

1160
01:11:35.640 --> 01:11:40.319
Comedy Series. So Happy Birthday to all of those wonderful,

1161
01:11:40.359 --> 01:11:46.560
wonderful people. And next I flap the birthday candle over

1162
01:11:46.760 --> 01:11:51.319
to Paul, to which people a happy flappy birthday.

1163
01:11:53.399 --> 01:11:54.920
All I can say is flay.

1164
01:11:55.680 --> 01:12:06.239
Hey, yes tomorrow, tomorrow, yes, yes, all right, excellent.

1165
01:12:05.840 --> 01:12:08.159
Very cool. All right, let's go. We got a bunch

1166
01:12:08.159 --> 01:12:12.079
of them here. First of all sci fi luminary Gina Torres,

1167
01:12:12.720 --> 01:12:17.279
who is known to us for her work on Zoe Washburn,

1168
01:12:17.399 --> 01:12:22.520
on Firefly and of course the subsequent theatrical movie Serenity. Okay,

1169
01:12:22.680 --> 01:12:27.159
absolutely great work there. We just recently learned that she's

1170
01:12:27.199 --> 01:12:30.399
going to be rejoining the entire living cast of Firefly

1171
01:12:30.520 --> 01:12:34.039
to bring the show back as a radio program, as

1172
01:12:34.039 --> 01:12:37.079
an animated program. Sorry, I got radio on the brain

1173
01:12:37.159 --> 01:12:41.560
after our interviewer tonight, but as redoing it voice work

1174
01:12:41.920 --> 01:12:44.920
for the animated version of Firefly that's in development right now.

1175
01:12:45.000 --> 01:12:48.880
So very excited to have more adventures with Mal and

1176
01:12:49.039 --> 01:12:52.000
Zoe Washburn, which will be great. She's done tons and

1177
01:12:52.039 --> 01:12:54.439
tons of great work besides that show.

1178
01:12:54.439 --> 01:12:54.600
Though.

1179
01:12:54.640 --> 01:12:57.640
She played Jessica Pearson on the series Suits, which is

1180
01:12:57.720 --> 01:13:01.680
very popular spin off Serious Pearson. I remember she had

1181
01:13:01.680 --> 01:13:04.159
an in double role on a show called The Shield

1182
01:13:04.279 --> 01:13:06.680
if there are a lot of crime afficionados, you should

1183
01:13:06.680 --> 01:13:08.880
definitely check out The Shield. Her work on there was

1184
01:13:08.920 --> 01:13:13.000
really great too. Happy birthday to Becky Wallstrom, actress who

1185
01:13:13.039 --> 01:13:16.079
played Vissi and co Jenitor in the Enterprise second season

1186
01:13:16.119 --> 01:13:21.960
episode titled aptly pro Jenitor. What a coincidence, but there

1187
01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:25.039
you have it. So very very cool. Happy birthday, Becky Wallstrom.

1188
01:13:26.079 --> 01:13:30.680
Happy birthday to John Vargas, the actor who played Jetta

1189
01:13:31.279 --> 01:13:34.039
in Star Trek two The Wrath of Khan and Tao

1190
01:13:34.279 --> 01:13:38.159
in Voyager's fourth season episode concerning flight. Who was Jeda?

1191
01:13:38.279 --> 01:13:40.680
You may be asking in the Wrath of Khan? Whenever

1192
01:13:40.720 --> 01:13:42.840
you mentioned the Wrath of Khn, people's eyes light up.

1193
01:13:42.880 --> 01:13:46.920
Which character is? Well, that was one doctor Carol Marcus's

1194
01:13:47.000 --> 01:13:51.520
assistance on the Regular one space station, so a fellow

1195
01:13:51.680 --> 01:13:55.600
scientist if I remember correctly. So very very cool to

1196
01:13:55.640 --> 01:13:59.279
be able to have a Wrath of Khan on your CV.

1197
01:13:59.520 --> 01:14:02.800
There also was on the X File spin off The

1198
01:14:02.800 --> 01:14:06.279
Lone Gunman, which was a pretty terrific show, short lived

1199
01:14:06.319 --> 01:14:08.119
but very interesting in its own rights. So a lot

1200
01:14:08.159 --> 01:14:10.800
of us are X Files fans for sure. Happy birthday,

1201
01:14:10.880 --> 01:14:15.119
John Vargas. Happy birthday also to Lisa Wilcox asked at

1202
01:14:16.079 --> 01:14:19.840
just slap Me. Actress who played Utah in the Next

1203
01:14:19.880 --> 01:14:24.640
Generation third season episode The Vengeance Factor. Hailing from Columbia, Missouri,

1204
01:14:24.760 --> 01:14:27.720
she's also known for playing Alice Johnson in Nightmare on

1205
01:14:27.760 --> 01:14:31.279
Elm Street four, The dream Master, and Nightmare on Elm

1206
01:14:31.319 --> 01:14:34.239
Street five, The dream Child. All kinds of Nightmare on

1207
01:14:34.239 --> 01:14:37.199
Elm Street. Work going on there, Lisa Wilcox, So, happy

1208
01:14:37.199 --> 01:14:42.119
birthday to you, big fan of this next luminary here

1209
01:14:42.159 --> 01:14:44.439
who is great to be able to celebrate. Happy birthday

1210
01:14:44.439 --> 01:14:50.199
goes out to Mary McDonald stage film television actress, who

1211
01:14:50.279 --> 01:14:53.279
of course received Chademy Award nominations for her roles as

1212
01:14:53.399 --> 01:14:58.319
Stands with the Fist in Dances with Wolves and Mary

1213
01:14:58.319 --> 01:15:01.880
Alice Colhaney in paston Fish. She's also known for her

1214
01:15:01.880 --> 01:15:08.239
performances as President Laura Roslin, Oh yeah, Battlestar Galactica, A

1215
01:15:08.760 --> 01:15:11.920
very very awesome role on there. She was basically it's

1216
01:15:11.960 --> 01:15:16.039
that situation where she was one of the last, you know,

1217
01:15:16.119 --> 01:15:19.399
members of the cabinet left alive. She was the Education

1218
01:15:19.600 --> 01:15:23.399
secretary all right, who got ended up promoted to president

1219
01:15:23.479 --> 01:15:26.600
because no one else was left alive after the sylum

1220
01:15:26.680 --> 01:15:30.399
of that, and man, could we use having a legit

1221
01:15:30.800 --> 01:15:34.720
education secretary as president? Not the one we have now,

1222
01:15:35.119 --> 01:15:39.119
thank you very much, but one who actually values learning enlightenment.

1223
01:15:39.279 --> 01:15:42.239
That's so love to see that evolution happen for us.

1224
01:15:42.279 --> 01:15:44.600
But I'll have to wait left to wait for that

1225
01:15:44.720 --> 01:15:47.279
for a bit, I'm afraid. But anyhow, the example she

1226
01:15:47.520 --> 01:15:52.720
set of a strong woman leader was just indelible and amazing.

1227
01:15:52.800 --> 01:15:56.439
So we're really lucky to have Mary McDonald's example out there.

1228
01:15:56.800 --> 01:15:59.760
And she also played the first Lady in Independence Day,

1229
01:15:59.800 --> 01:16:02.720
which was a colossal hit. So there you have it.

1230
01:16:02.800 --> 01:16:05.119
So I love to see, like our guests tonight on

1231
01:16:05.159 --> 01:16:10.159
the show, these examples of women in strong leadership capacities.

1232
01:16:10.359 --> 01:16:13.119
Why don't the voters wise up and understand that that's

1233
01:16:13.159 --> 01:16:14.800
where we need to go. That's what I would like

1234
01:16:14.840 --> 01:16:18.399
to see happen in my lifetime. Is I'd be willing

1235
01:16:18.399 --> 01:16:21.079
to go for a full on matriarchy, all right, if

1236
01:16:21.079 --> 01:16:23.039
I could get a woman in a leadership role, I mean,

1237
01:16:23.079 --> 01:16:25.159
just show me where to vote, show me where to sign.

1238
01:16:25.560 --> 01:16:28.920
I want to see strong leaders like Tarina and Laura

1239
01:16:29.039 --> 01:16:31.640
Roslin in charge, and I will do whatever they say.

1240
01:16:31.760 --> 01:16:34.079
So there you go. That's you know, those kind of leaders,

1241
01:16:34.079 --> 01:16:36.680
not the other kind of leaders. All right, so box

1242
01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:41.680
put away, let's continue. Happy birthday to Paul Gilfoyle, a

1243
01:16:41.840 --> 01:16:44.560
very very talented character actor who, of course, on Star

1244
01:16:44.600 --> 01:16:47.840
Trek Discoveries third season episodes Terror Firm Apart One and two,

1245
01:16:48.199 --> 01:16:52.920
played the character we think of affectionately as Carl, the

1246
01:16:53.399 --> 01:16:56.680
human personification of the Guardiana forever if you choose to

1247
01:16:56.760 --> 01:17:00.000
follow that concept. And he's also very well known for

1248
01:17:00.039 --> 01:17:04.279
playing Captain Jim Brass in CSI Crime Scene Investigation, So

1249
01:17:04.479 --> 01:17:07.760
very very cool work there. I got to give a

1250
01:17:07.760 --> 01:17:12.079
big happy birthday to this next star phenomenal, phenomenal performer,

1251
01:17:12.479 --> 01:17:16.600
the lovely and talented Michelle Pfeiffer Okay, of course, has

1252
01:17:16.680 --> 01:17:21.680
got a massive science fiction and fantasy resume. Yes, she

1253
01:17:21.840 --> 01:17:25.560
recently played Janet van Dyne, a gay Wasp in ant

1254
01:17:25.600 --> 01:17:29.079
Man of the Wasp and Avengers Endgame and that of

1255
01:17:29.119 --> 01:17:30.840
the sequel that we don't talk about, so we won't

1256
01:17:30.840 --> 01:17:35.399
talk about it there. Of course, more memorably known for

1257
01:17:35.520 --> 01:17:39.199
many of us for her tremendous turn as Selena Kyle,

1258
01:17:39.439 --> 01:17:45.880
Catwoman in Tim Burton's phenomenal Batman Returns the second Michael

1259
01:17:45.920 --> 01:17:50.680
Keaton Batman movie and Man, What a Catwoman. She was

1260
01:17:51.199 --> 01:17:58.000
absolutely tremendous performance there, absolutely memorable, and also played Susie

1261
01:17:58.000 --> 01:18:01.960
Diamond character in the remarkable picture The Fabulous Baker Boys

1262
01:18:02.000 --> 01:18:05.319
that you haven't seen that you should definitely check it out.

1263
01:18:05.399 --> 01:18:10.319
And her work as Alvira in Scarface, of course, I

1264
01:18:10.359 --> 01:18:12.680
mean that's one of the first pictures that I remember

1265
01:18:12.720 --> 01:18:16.800
seeing Michelle Pfeiffer in right opposite big Al al Pacino

1266
01:18:16.880 --> 01:18:19.560
there say hello to my little friend in Scarface. What

1267
01:18:19.640 --> 01:18:22.560
a what a role, So amazing stuff from that Brian

1268
01:18:22.600 --> 01:18:26.680
Obama film. And finally one more big birthday for me

1269
01:18:26.880 --> 01:18:32.000
here the absolutely radiant Kirsten Dunst actress who played the role.

1270
01:18:32.079 --> 01:18:34.279
It's weird to think of Kirsten Dents was in Star Trek,

1271
01:18:34.319 --> 01:18:36.319
but you know a lot of people start out in

1272
01:18:36.359 --> 01:18:39.039
these roles, right and then go on to huge stardom.

1273
01:18:39.920 --> 01:18:42.840
But ms Dunst played the role of head Rill in

1274
01:18:42.960 --> 01:18:47.199
the Next Generation seventh season episode Dark Page when she

1275
01:18:47.479 --> 01:18:51.399
was a wee sprout of only eleven years old. How

1276
01:18:51.439 --> 01:18:54.600
about that? And she is now, of course very well

1277
01:18:54.640 --> 01:18:58.039
known as Mary Jane Watson back in the original Sam

1278
01:18:58.119 --> 01:19:01.600
Raimi Spider Man film, but she's done a lot of

1279
01:19:01.640 --> 01:19:04.359
really great work. A lot of people do not know

1280
01:19:04.439 --> 01:19:07.239
the picture Melancholia, but you should definitely check that out

1281
01:19:07.359 --> 01:19:10.720
if you like Kristen Dunsi's work. When she was also

1282
01:19:11.399 --> 01:19:15.399
even younger, I think than that star Trek Gig. Remember

1283
01:19:15.439 --> 01:19:18.960
that she started out as Claudia in This Is Back

1284
01:19:18.960 --> 01:19:22.319
in nineteen ninety four in an interview with a Vampire

1285
01:19:22.720 --> 01:19:25.479
with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. She was like that

1286
01:19:25.600 --> 01:19:28.920
young character in that picture too. I cannot remember which

1287
01:19:28.960 --> 01:19:30.760
came first. It's one of those things. I'm pretty sure

1288
01:19:31.119 --> 01:19:33.439
interview with the vampire came first. But you know, again,

1289
01:19:33.600 --> 01:19:36.239
when we're a real show and we do more research,

1290
01:19:36.319 --> 01:19:39.439
we'll come prepare and have that knowledge beforehand, as opposed

1291
01:19:39.479 --> 01:19:42.640
to holding down daytime jobs and having actually work right

1292
01:19:42.680 --> 01:19:47.079
up until thirty seconds before the show. And then again

1293
01:19:47.199 --> 01:19:49.439
Spider Man, which I mentioned, and then one of her

1294
01:19:49.439 --> 01:19:53.199
more recent performances, you should definitely check out. It's an

1295
01:19:53.239 --> 01:19:56.960
amazing movie. No matter where you land on the spectrum

1296
01:19:57.000 --> 01:20:01.560
of reality or politics, go check out Alex Garland's Civil War.

1297
01:20:02.199 --> 01:20:05.199
It's you may need therapy after you're done watching it,

1298
01:20:05.239 --> 01:20:08.359
but I think it's a movie everybody should see, especially

1299
01:20:08.640 --> 01:20:10.600
everybody who lives in the United States. I think you

1300
01:20:10.640 --> 01:20:13.520
can't afford not to see it. And I will just

1301
01:20:13.520 --> 01:20:18.399
say there's a very memorable, kind of fortuitous small role

1302
01:20:18.600 --> 01:20:22.760
in that film that was given as a result of

1303
01:20:23.600 --> 01:20:28.239
who her husband is who. I won't spoil it for

1304
01:20:28.279 --> 01:20:33.520
you if you know, you know, but Kirsten Duns's husband

1305
01:20:34.359 --> 01:20:37.119
you may or may not know, but has a role

1306
01:20:37.159 --> 01:20:39.640
that you will simply never forget. If you see Civil War,

1307
01:20:39.760 --> 01:20:42.800
you will never forget that. I need discut the job

1308
01:20:42.840 --> 01:20:46.720
by accident because of his wife is a big advocate

1309
01:20:47.199 --> 01:20:50.439
for him as well. She should be so pretty talented

1310
01:20:50.479 --> 01:20:52.920
family there in the Dunce household. And I'm pretty sure

1311
01:20:52.960 --> 01:20:56.119
that's the last birthday I've got. So it looks like

1312
01:20:56.159 --> 01:20:58.960
it's time. Do I do I smell battle on five?

1313
01:20:59.000 --> 01:21:00.800
I feel like I smell battle on time. It's one

1314
01:21:00.840 --> 01:21:04.000
of my you know, those favorite old chestnuts there. But

1315
01:21:04.039 --> 01:21:05.560
I don't know, I could be wrong. Uncle Jim, do

1316
01:21:05.600 --> 01:21:07.199
you have Babbylon five on your shirt?

1317
01:21:07.319 --> 01:21:08.000
Is that what I'm selling?

1318
01:21:08.720 --> 01:21:12.600
Well, you're smelling a couple of number five, which.

01:21:17.920 --> 01:21:21.479
Yes, indeed, yeah.

1320
01:21:21.239 --> 01:21:23.359
So I've got a couple of Klingons and one of

1321
01:21:23.359 --> 01:21:25.680
them is related to the number five, and we'll get

1322
01:21:25.680 --> 01:21:27.520

1323
01:21:27.520 --> 01:21:29.359
off by saying happy birthday.

Happy Birthday to Peter Jurassic Book.

1336

1338
01:22:20.760 --> 01:22:25.199
So Happy birthday to Peter Jurassic. And now we're going

1339
01:22:25.279 --> 01:22:29.560
to get into some Klingon territory. Unfortunately we won't get

1340
01:22:29.560 --> 01:22:32.279
to see much more of this guy. We have ten

1341
01:22:32.359 --> 01:22:35.680
more episodes to enjoy him. But I want to say

1342
01:22:36.119 --> 01:22:39.720
a massive happy birthday and kup lah there he is

1343
01:22:39.760 --> 01:22:44.000
on the screen, guys, right there, Kareem Diane. He played

1344
01:22:44.439 --> 01:22:49.079
Jaden Cragg and Starfleet Academy. I put up his post

1345
01:22:49.159 --> 01:22:53.680
on our Facebook page and he liked it personally, so

1346
01:22:53.760 --> 01:22:57.479
he follows our Facebook page and reads all the posts

1347
01:22:57.520 --> 01:23:00.640
on there, which I think is awesome. And I'm still

1348
01:23:00.640 --> 01:23:04.000
trying to get him on the podcast. Believe me, one

1349
01:23:04.000 --> 01:23:08.319

01:23:21.039 --> 01:23:24.000
The number five. We got to get a cling.

1354
01:23:23.800 --> 01:23:28.199
On, We got to go to Star Trek five, Spice

1355
01:23:28.359 --> 01:23:32.119
Williams on the podcast. You guys should go back go

1356
01:23:32.199 --> 01:23:35.720
to Trek Talking dot com and find the interview. She

1357
01:23:35.920 --> 01:23:39.319
was charming, she was awesome, she was fun, and she

1358
01:23:39.600 --> 01:23:43.479
spoke cling on. That's right, she spoke cling on. She

1359
01:23:43.680 --> 01:23:47.720
actually remembered her lines from Star Trek five and cling On.

1360
01:23:48.520 --> 01:23:52.319
She's a stunt woman, stunt coordinator, and she played Dix's

Trek movie ever made.

1363
01:23:57.720 --> 01:23:59.560
They'll never top Star Trek five.

1364
01:24:00.079 --> 01:24:03.199
William Shanner just hit it out of the park and

1365
01:24:03.199 --> 01:24:04.760
they'll never get anything better.

1366
01:24:05.199 --> 01:24:07.159
Sorry, but yeah, that's it.

1367
01:24:07.600 --> 01:24:11.960
But she also played the Calistron kidnapper in the DS

1368
01:24:12.079 --> 01:24:14.800
nine first season episode Dax, but I don't care about that.

1369
01:24:14.840 --> 01:24:17.920
She was Vix's. It starts for five the.

1370
01:24:17.560 --> 01:24:22.359

1372
01:24:28.479 --> 01:24:31.319
But we do have one more that's here on my list.

1373
01:24:31.600 --> 01:24:33.520
Not a Klingon, but a Bulkan.

1374
01:24:34.199 --> 01:24:34.319
Uh.

1375
01:24:34.800 --> 01:24:39.239
He's been with me for almost ten years on this podcast.

1376
01:24:39.359 --> 01:24:43.840
That's hard to believe it's been that long, but he's there.

1377
01:24:43.880 --> 01:24:46.720
He is on the screen right there, wearing his awesome

1378
01:24:47.079 --> 01:24:49.720
Trek Talking T shirt. And of course you want to

1379
01:24:49.720 --> 01:24:53.960
say happy birthday to our very own sub commander Charles.

1380
01:24:54.119 --> 01:24:56.960
Happy birthday, Charles, Thank.

1381
01:24:56.760 --> 01:24:58.800
You, Happy birthday?

01:25:01.159 --> 01:25:04.119

1383
01:25:04.279 --> 01:25:06.359
Almost?

1384
01:25:06.640 --> 01:25:10.720
Man? I feel old, Yeah, David feels home.

1385
01:25:14.640 --> 01:25:15.159
Wow.

1386
01:25:16.039 --> 01:25:17.199
Have you watched Flash yet?

1387
01:25:17.279 --> 01:25:17.520
David?

1388
01:25:19.359 --> 01:25:20.600
I just went right over my head.

1389
01:25:20.640 --> 01:25:21.279
It was so fast.

1390
01:25:21.359 --> 01:25:28.119
Okay, then, so happy birthday to Charles. It's it's been

1391
01:25:28.159 --> 01:25:31.000
a long and winding road getting from there to here.

1392
01:25:31.920 --> 01:25:34.680
Yes, it has, it has.

1393
01:25:34.439 --> 01:25:36.239
But it's been it's been a fun journey.

1394
01:25:36.800 --> 01:25:40.600
And that, my friends, wraps up our star Trek birthdays.

1395
01:25:41.119 --> 01:25:43.600
And now we're going to do some Star Trek news

1396
01:25:44.560 --> 01:25:46.239
and Eric is not.

1397
01:25:46.439 --> 01:25:49.199
With us, and he always does the Shatner says what,

1398
01:25:50.039 --> 01:25:53.079
So we're gonna bump Shatner says what to next week

1399
01:25:53.239 --> 01:25:56.760
so that our very own Eric can do that one.

1400
01:25:56.800 --> 01:25:59.600
So we'll jump to our next story, which will fall

1401
01:25:59.680 --> 01:26:00.760
to me.

1402
01:26:02.079 --> 01:26:26.319
But first, but first there we go direct talking.

1403
01:26:26.439 --> 01:26:29.119
I got you know what, I gotta change that to

1404
01:26:29.279 --> 01:26:34.159
get a get a video of v flapping her arms around.

1405
01:26:38.279 --> 01:26:38.840
We should.

1406
01:26:40.880 --> 01:26:44.600
We'll just that, can I say?

1407
01:26:44.800 --> 01:26:47.319
Can I say, y'all can eat a bag of bord Dicks?

1408
01:26:49.119 --> 01:26:56.119
There you go, sparkly fans.

1409
01:26:58.520 --> 01:27:02.359
Oh see, this is this is why I subject myself

1410
01:27:02.399 --> 01:27:05.560
to this torture every week because you'll make me laugh.

1411
01:27:09.720 --> 01:27:11.079
Did you get to talk to Grace? Oh?

1412
01:27:11.199 --> 01:27:14.920
Absolutely? What a lovely, lovely human being. Absolutely.

1413
01:27:17.399 --> 01:27:21.119
That was definitely a fun interview for sure. All Right, guys,

1414
01:27:21.119 --> 01:27:23.399
So I've got our first story here for us of

1415
01:27:23.560 --> 01:27:28.199
the evening Paramount top the bombshell about Star Trek's future.

1416
01:27:29.119 --> 01:27:32.000
This story is actually from last week. We had to

1417
01:27:32.000 --> 01:27:35.000
bump it, but it doesn't matter. Paramount has confirmed a

1418
01:27:35.079 --> 01:27:38.079
major shift for the Star Trek franchise just weeks after

1419
01:27:38.159 --> 01:27:41.479
canceling one of the show's newest and most exciting series,

1420
01:27:42.319 --> 01:27:46.439
Starfleet Academy. Unfortunately, while there are comments were brief, the

1421
01:27:46.479 --> 01:27:49.880
studio confirmed that a new Star Trek movie is officially

1422
01:27:50.079 --> 01:27:54.079
in development. It's reported that Dungeons and Dragons Honor among

1423
01:27:54.199 --> 01:27:59.319
Thieves duo Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Delay have been

1424
01:27:59.359 --> 01:28:03.159
tapped to direct and produce the new original film for

1425
01:28:03.279 --> 01:28:05.920
Star Trek. If you guys have not seen Dungeons and Dragons,

1426
01:28:06.199 --> 01:28:08.279
Chris Pine is in it. It's a lot of fun.

1427
01:28:09.239 --> 01:28:09.800
Check it out.

1428
01:28:09.880 --> 01:28:14.960
I thoroughly enjoyed it, more than I thought that I would. Anyways,

1429
01:28:14.960 --> 01:28:15.439
where was that?

1430
01:28:15.600 --> 01:28:15.880
Yeah?

1431
01:28:16.000 --> 01:28:19.239
While plot details are still being kept under wraps, the

1432
01:28:19.319 --> 01:28:22.880
new film will not be connected to the Kelvin verse

1433
01:28:23.079 --> 01:28:26.640
in any way and will feature an entirely new cast.

1434
01:28:27.239 --> 01:28:30.760
The new film will be completely disconnected from any previous

1435
01:28:30.840 --> 01:28:36.119
continuity and feature no familiar faces, a brand new cast,

1436
01:28:36.159 --> 01:28:39.680
a brand new story, a brand new entry point for audiences.

1437
01:28:40.199 --> 01:28:44.159
Paramount's pitch for Goldstein and DeLay's project has reportedly been

1438
01:28:44.239 --> 01:28:48.239
described internally as a completely new take on the Star

1439
01:28:48.319 --> 01:28:51.840
Trek universe. How exactly the film fits into the sprawling

1440
01:28:51.920 --> 01:28:57.000
sixty year television franchise also remains to be seen. This

1441
01:28:57.079 --> 01:29:01.560
news comes after Paramount new management Striptley began winding down

1442
01:29:01.600 --> 01:29:05.199
the franchise television efforts on the heels of a successful

1443
01:29:05.239 --> 01:29:08.600
first season. Star Trek Starfleet Academy was announced to be

1444
01:29:08.800 --> 01:29:12.520
ending whether it's already filmed second season. The decision follows

1445
01:29:12.560 --> 01:29:15.159
previous plans to bring Strange New Worlds to an end

1446
01:29:15.239 --> 01:29:18.199
as well, with a fifth and final season, which was

1447
01:29:18.199 --> 01:29:21.439
filmed back to back with season four. No release date

1448
01:29:21.479 --> 01:29:24.119
has been set, but season four is expected to air

1449
01:29:24.159 --> 01:29:27.399
on Paramount Plus some time later this year. Paul will

1450
01:29:27.439 --> 01:29:30.399
get to that Starfleet Academy is also not set at

1451
01:29:30.439 --> 01:29:33.279
release date for its second and final season, but filming

1452
01:29:33.359 --> 01:29:36.600
is wrapped earlier this year as possible new episodes could

1453
01:29:36.720 --> 01:29:39.640
arrive in twenty twenty seven. I'm going to take a

1454
01:29:39.680 --> 01:29:44.760
minute here before Paul jumps in with our next story.

1455
01:29:44.319 --> 01:29:47.920
What do you guys think they mean when they say

1456
01:29:48.319 --> 01:29:52.399
that it won't be connected to any current Star Trek continuity,

1457
01:29:53.279 --> 01:29:56.640
won't have any familiar faces, and it will be completely new,

1458
01:29:56.680 --> 01:29:57.439
completely different.

1459
01:29:58.920 --> 01:30:01.399
I mean, if I can start. When I read that,

1460
01:30:01.720 --> 01:30:06.119
it just it sounded like they just want to strip

1461
01:30:06.199 --> 01:30:08.880
everything that we know as Star Trek and just start

1462
01:30:08.920 --> 01:30:14.920
with some new stuff that maybe fits in their non

1463
01:30:15.760 --> 01:30:21.119
uh infinite diversity, infinite combination world. That's what I thought,

1464
01:30:21.840 --> 01:30:24.359
that they just want to make it there a generic

1465
01:30:25.079 --> 01:30:29.159
you know, Star Trek instead of Star Trek.

1466
01:30:29.920 --> 01:30:30.039
Uh.

1467
01:30:30.239 --> 01:30:35.279
So that's that's kind of worrisome. So that's how I feel.

1468
01:30:35.319 --> 01:30:38.560
I'm not I'm not happy at all. I want to,

1469
01:30:39.399 --> 01:30:42.560
you know, reserve judgment from for when I see it,

1470
01:30:42.640 --> 01:30:47.800
but just the way they worded it is rather it's worrisome.

1471
01:30:48.119 --> 01:30:48.960
So I don't know.

1472
01:30:50.800 --> 01:30:56.920
We shall see with you. I agree, I'm going to.

1473
01:30:58.920 --> 01:31:00.760
I'm going to be a little more. I'll believe it

1474
01:31:00.800 --> 01:31:01.760
when I see it.

1475
01:31:03.239 --> 01:31:05.960
And my Star Trek series of series that we've been

1476
01:31:05.960 --> 01:31:11.720
promised and we still haven't gotten one movie yet. The

1477
01:31:11.760 --> 01:31:17.000
closest we've got wash Section thirty one, and that's that

1478
01:31:18.640 --> 01:31:23.720
for a lot of people, really wasn't a good movie.

1479
01:31:26.439 --> 01:31:27.960
Well, I think it's a big wheel.

1480
01:31:28.760 --> 01:31:31.840
To write and direct the movie. It would be outstanding.

1481
01:31:32.840 --> 01:31:36.840
That's a yeah, it would be.

1482
01:31:38.239 --> 01:31:41.439
I'm Captain James T. Kirk on the USS Colostomy Bug

1483
01:31:41.720 --> 01:31:49.520
and we're we're making our way back to Station twenty

1484
01:31:49.600 --> 01:31:54.760
or seven. My dentures just fell out. Yeah, I think

1485
01:31:54.840 --> 01:31:56.359
Charles is right. I mean, this is just you know,

1486
01:31:56.439 --> 01:31:58.279
this is a press release, right, It's got all the

1487
01:31:58.359 --> 01:32:00.439
veracity of like a bag of saying, right.

1488
01:32:00.520 --> 01:32:01.760
I mean, the.

1489
01:32:01.520 --> 01:32:04.319
Pamou's been trying to get a movie going for years

1490
01:32:04.319 --> 01:32:07.359
and they just cannot. You know, it's just like or

1491
01:32:07.439 --> 01:32:11.439
to quote Captain Kirk, you keep missing the targets, right.

1492
01:32:11.520 --> 01:32:14.119
They just cannot get it together, right. They cannot deliver,

1493
01:32:14.159 --> 01:32:16.720
they cannot execute. I don't think it's possible in a

1494
01:32:16.720 --> 01:32:21.239
way that to say you're disconnected from all continuity. To me,

1495
01:32:21.439 --> 01:32:23.640
when you read a press release like this, this tells

1496
01:32:23.640 --> 01:32:26.399
me it's written by somebody who has no idea what's

1497
01:32:26.439 --> 01:32:28.600
really going on. So do not put a lot of

1498
01:32:28.760 --> 01:32:30.960
credence in this. Do you want to piss off sixty

1499
01:32:31.000 --> 01:32:33.359
years with the fans? I don't think so, you know.

1500
01:32:33.479 --> 01:32:35.560
I mean, admittedly, I think people want maybe like a

1501
01:32:35.560 --> 01:32:38.399
break from the I can understand wanted to like not

1502
01:32:39.239 --> 01:32:42.800
feel too adhered to everything that's gone on and like

1503
01:32:42.880 --> 01:32:45.439
the Kurtsman era. I can understand that, right, because a

1504
01:32:45.439 --> 01:32:47.880
lot of people have the baggage and connection, they want

1505
01:32:47.880 --> 01:32:51.079
a fresh start. You can't separate yourself from all continuity.

1506
01:32:51.199 --> 01:32:55.039
That's preposterous, you know. I mean, it's just it's it's hyperbole.

1507
01:32:55.159 --> 01:32:58.039
So this is just a press release. You know, there's

1508
01:32:58.119 --> 01:33:01.479
a long road getting from there.

1509
01:33:01.680 --> 01:33:02.560
The year.

1510
01:33:09.439 --> 01:33:12.760
So Charles is right, believe it when you see it.

1511
01:33:12.800 --> 01:33:14.560
I mean, it's going to be the first and then,

1512
01:33:14.640 --> 01:33:17.840
like you know, I mean it's just this ridiculous takeover

1513
01:33:17.920 --> 01:33:20.920
of like you know, Paramount just happened. They don't even

1514
01:33:20.960 --> 01:33:24.279
know where the bathrooms are in episode right, They're going

1515
01:33:24.319 --> 01:33:27.720
to need to know, believe me. So it's just it's it's, yeah,

1516
01:33:27.760 --> 01:33:30.239
I don't you know, this is going to be like

1517
01:33:30.319 --> 01:33:33.760
ten different iterations of nothing. It's like when you're sitting

1518
01:33:33.760 --> 01:33:34.880
in a seat and you got popcorn.

1519
01:33:35.000 --> 01:33:35.640
Then believe it.

1520
01:33:35.680 --> 01:33:39.760
But until then, yeah, color me a little skeptical, you know.

1521
01:33:40.000 --> 01:33:42.319
And you know, I don't think that we'll really get

1522
01:33:42.319 --> 01:33:48.239
a clear sense of what's actually happening until like the

1523
01:33:48.359 --> 01:33:52.359
very last episode of the you know, two seasons down

1524
01:33:52.399 --> 01:33:54.600
the road, a strange new world is open. That's going

1525
01:33:54.680 --> 01:33:56.159
to be at least a year and a half from

1526
01:33:56.159 --> 01:34:00.520
now minimum, right, and I maybe end of twenty will

1527
01:34:00.560 --> 01:34:03.520
have some idea of where they're going. But if I

1528
01:34:03.600 --> 01:34:06.279
was paramount, I would keep your mouth shut until you actually,

1529
01:34:06.319 --> 01:34:09.840
like have got signed contracts and a script and you're

1530
01:34:09.920 --> 01:34:13.640
in production. Like let people know the day of first

1531
01:34:13.680 --> 01:34:17.279
shooting that you were actually there. But don't start talking

1532
01:34:17.720 --> 01:34:21.439
before you're ready to go. Nobody's because you're just invalidating

1533
01:34:21.479 --> 01:34:25.840
your your credibility, which is low right now as it is.

1534
01:34:26.000 --> 01:34:27.800
So we'll see anytimes.

1535
01:34:28.119 --> 01:34:30.079
How many times have we said we had a Kelvin

1536
01:34:30.159 --> 01:34:34.439
movie and the actors said, I have not heard anything.

1537
01:34:34.479 --> 01:34:35.880
I had not signed a contract.

1538
01:34:36.159 --> 01:34:40.159
Yeah, yeah, exactly, Charles. Yeah, they just they send out

1539
01:34:40.199 --> 01:34:44.119
these press releases, and the press release its time for

1540
01:34:44.119 --> 01:34:46.199
that is when the movie is in the camp. That's

1541
01:34:46.199 --> 01:34:47.960
when you start sending out the press releases. And you

1542
01:34:48.039 --> 01:34:50.279
do it in concert with the marketing. But you don't

1543
01:34:50.319 --> 01:34:52.239
just do this nonsense at the head of the game.

1544
01:34:52.279 --> 01:34:54.199
It's just like, no one's gonna believe you at least no,

1545
01:34:54.520 --> 01:34:57.199
you know, I think no fan who's been around the

1546
01:34:57.239 --> 01:35:00.079
block a couple of times. It's ridiculous, So I no, no,

1547
01:35:00.439 --> 01:35:02.680
it's it's it's interesting to read, but it's just like

1548
01:35:02.720 --> 01:35:04.880
all this doesn't stir us up. And you know, we

1549
01:35:04.920 --> 01:35:07.880
live in an age where truth is so susceptible to

1550
01:35:08.560 --> 01:35:12.079
you know, misinformation and uh, you know, mendacity on a

1551
01:35:12.119 --> 01:35:14.760
constant basis. So it's just like I don't believe anything

1552
01:35:14.760 --> 01:35:17.520
I read anymore, like, you know, unless I can verify

1553
01:35:17.520 --> 01:35:18.319
it somehow.

1554
01:35:18.399 --> 01:35:21.560
Well, it's almost like to me, I saw like the

1555
01:35:21.600 --> 01:35:25.800
wording was deliberate as a way to hurt the long

1556
01:35:25.920 --> 01:35:29.520
term or long you know, long term fans, just taking

1557
01:35:29.520 --> 01:35:33.920
away everything's familiar because you know, we saw what a

1558
01:35:33.960 --> 01:35:37.159
certain member of the administration tried to do, say, oh,

1559
01:35:37.319 --> 01:35:40.600
take over Shatner and get this away from you know,

1560
01:35:40.800 --> 01:35:44.359
being boke and blah. So it just it just seemed

1561
01:35:44.479 --> 01:35:49.439
deliberately hurtful. I think so, But you're right, we'll see

1562
01:35:50.720 --> 01:35:53.560
because just seeing that that, like the start that Star

1563
01:35:53.600 --> 01:35:57.840
Trek cruise for next year was sold out within I

1564
01:35:57.840 --> 01:35:59.840
don't know how long. It was very a very brief time.

1565
01:36:00.039 --> 01:36:02.399
If you look at all the stars, the Star Trek

1566
01:36:02.439 --> 01:36:04.479
people that are going to be on it, lots of

1567
01:36:04.560 --> 01:36:08.000
familiar faces you know, from across the across the board,

1568
01:36:08.079 --> 01:36:11.119
so to speak. So yeah, this this is meant to

1569
01:36:11.560 --> 01:36:15.000
piss off a whole bunch of fans that they probably

1570
01:36:15.319 --> 01:36:18.159
will regret pissing off. If they make this.

1571
01:36:18.840 --> 01:36:22.239
Well we'll see what happens. But you know, on right.

1572
01:36:24.159 --> 01:36:28.279
Talking will not be on the cruise unfortunately. Well no,

1573
01:36:28.479 --> 01:36:29.600
I didn't get my invitation.

1574
01:36:29.720 --> 01:36:31.520
Yeah, well, you know.

1575
01:36:31.880 --> 01:36:34.079
I hear there's an open bar and that Armond Shimmerman

1576
01:36:34.199 --> 01:36:37.479
is pouring, so make plans for next year.

1577
01:36:38.680 --> 01:36:39.800
Yeah, I thought about that.

1578
01:36:39.920 --> 01:36:42.600
She's kind of all over, kind of exciting, but also

1579
01:36:42.600 --> 01:36:44.119
at the same time, I agree with you guys. You

1580
01:36:44.119 --> 01:36:47.840
know it when I ship it show it's it's kind

1581
01:36:47.840 --> 01:36:49.640
of exciting to see something new, but at the same time,

1582
01:36:49.640 --> 01:36:51.720
it's like, let's see how it goes.

1583
01:36:53.279 --> 01:36:54.319
Well, we'll believe it.

1584
01:36:54.600 --> 01:36:58.399
Yeah, it's it's like the new coke of Star Trek.

1585
01:37:00.319 --> 01:37:03.960
How about that.

1586
01:37:03.960 --> 01:37:06.880
That's that just popped into my head. So if you

1587
01:37:06.920 --> 01:37:07.640
get it, you get it.

1588
01:37:07.680 --> 01:37:18.079
If you don't, arms we actually have some real, some

1589
01:37:18.159 --> 01:37:18.920
real news.

1590
01:37:19.359 --> 01:37:22.560
Let's get to it. So go ahead to it. Do

1591
01:37:22.760 --> 01:37:23.359
your magic.

1592
01:37:26.279 --> 01:37:28.800
I have ever been prone to seek adventure and to

1593
01:37:28.880 --> 01:37:32.079
investigate where wiser men.

1594
01:37:31.960 --> 01:37:39.159
Would have left well enough alone.

1595
01:37:40.359 --> 01:37:46.720
Space is limitless in it's beauty and in its.

1596
01:37:46.640 --> 01:37:55.279
Terrible You can do everything right, and sometimes things still

1597
01:37:55.279 --> 01:37:56.760
don't work out the way we'd helpe.

1598
01:38:02.520 --> 01:38:04.159
Any of these missions could be lost.

1599
01:38:12.359 --> 01:38:13.279
Let's boldly go.

1600
01:38:19.800 --> 01:38:20.560
Make sure there's heat.

1601
01:38:22.079 --> 01:38:28.520
I will do my best, okay.

1602
01:38:28.600 --> 01:38:33.600
So that right there is legitimately the teaser trailer for

1603
01:38:33.960 --> 01:38:37.920
Strange New World So that's that's for real, and that

1604
01:38:38.119 --> 01:38:38.880
is a setup.

1605
01:38:38.920 --> 01:38:42.960
That's a segue for Paul. Take it away, Paul.

1606
01:38:43.279 --> 01:38:45.920
Thanks Uncle Jimmy. Then, yes, now that you've seen it

1607
01:38:45.960 --> 01:38:48.680
with your own eyes, does that mean anything anymore? Well,

1608
01:38:48.720 --> 01:38:51.119
I think we're pretty safe in this situation here, but

1609
01:38:51.359 --> 01:38:54.600
it's true. Friends, we have a air date for a

1610
01:38:54.600 --> 01:38:58.680
Star Trek Strange New World season four, penultimate season if

1611
01:38:58.720 --> 01:39:01.680
you will. With season five, I've still come and it'll

1612
01:39:01.680 --> 01:39:05.760
see be coming out in July twenty third, right, and

1613
01:39:05.800 --> 01:39:07.439
we got a lot going on. Let me do some

1614
01:39:07.960 --> 01:39:12.439
simple starfleet math here May June, so we got about

1615
01:39:12.479 --> 01:39:15.039
three months, right, a little less than three months to

1616
01:39:15.079 --> 01:39:17.239
wait before we get to this. So it's pretty exciting.

1617
01:39:17.600 --> 01:39:17.760
Now.

1618
01:39:17.760 --> 01:39:21.319
The series has wrapped production and all of the Toronto

1619
01:39:21.439 --> 01:39:25.560
based sets have sadly been demolished, but Captain Pike's crew

1620
01:39:26.119 --> 01:39:29.520
still has plenty of adventure ahead as Star Trek Strange

1621
01:39:29.560 --> 01:39:33.399
New Worlds is returning this summer. That one minute teaser

1622
01:39:33.439 --> 01:39:36.439
we just saw is filled with glimpses of the upcoming

1623
01:39:36.560 --> 01:39:40.760
ten episode season four outing and of course, last summer

1624
01:39:40.880 --> 01:39:45.319
San San Diego Comic Con apparentlyut lifted the lid on

1625
01:39:45.359 --> 01:39:49.079
the Strange New World's Biggest Swing It and episode where

1626
01:39:49.159 --> 01:39:54.479
the crew is transformed into Muppet style puppets brought to

1627
01:39:54.520 --> 01:39:57.720
life with the help of Jim Henson's Creature Shop. I'm

1628
01:39:57.720 --> 01:40:01.319
pretty sure there are Muppet style puppet in the c

1629
01:40:01.479 --> 01:40:07.520
suite leadership Team Paramounts last time I so anyhow, The

1630
01:40:07.600 --> 01:40:10.760
official Star Trek Strange New World's log line for season

1631
01:40:10.800 --> 01:40:15.000
four reads as follows. In season four of the Paramount

1632
01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:17.479
Plus original series, the crew of the USS Enterprise, led

1633
01:40:17.520 --> 01:40:20.640
by Captain Christopher Pike, embark on a series of thrilling

1634
01:40:20.720 --> 01:40:24.920
and emotional adventures across the Stars. As they journey to

1635
01:40:24.960 --> 01:40:29.880
Strange New Worlds. They will battle inner demons and external threats,

1636
01:40:30.119 --> 01:40:36.119
and counter colorful new characters, reunite with familiar faces and

1637
01:40:36.239 --> 01:40:39.760
terrifying aliens. Through it all, they strive to embrace a bright,

1638
01:40:39.960 --> 01:40:44.399
hopeful future. Now, we just got a glimpse of what

1639
01:40:44.479 --> 01:40:51.840
appeared to be like black holes, cowboys, dinosaurs, tremannosaurs. Very exciting.

1640
01:40:51.880 --> 01:40:55.119
The pulp comic book enthusiast in me loves what he sees.

1641
01:40:55.720 --> 01:40:59.039
All right, looks pretty fun, and the series comes to

1642
01:40:59.039 --> 01:41:02.239
Paramount Plus Globe on Thursday, July twenty third. We're keeping

1643
01:41:02.279 --> 01:41:05.199
that Thursday slot there, which means we can jump right

1644
01:41:05.239 --> 01:41:08.680
off of having a Trek talking episode and go watch

1645
01:41:08.720 --> 01:41:11.159
a new show, which is great. So that is also

1646
01:41:11.479 --> 01:41:15.640
big coincidence. Please do pay attention July twenty third, that's

1647
01:41:15.640 --> 01:41:19.279
the first night of San Diego Comic Gon Friends, So

1648
01:41:19.600 --> 01:41:24.039
I would expect a lot of serendipity. Even though they've

1649
01:41:24.560 --> 01:41:27.279
the show is canceled and Paramounts still trying to figure

1650
01:41:27.279 --> 01:41:30.880
out how to stop doing self imposed practology on their

1651
01:41:30.960 --> 01:41:36.079
leadership team. Still they must market, they must market, they

1652
01:41:36.199 --> 01:41:39.920
must There will I'm sure be plenty of things. If anything.

1653
01:41:39.960 --> 01:41:41.920
You know that Brian Wolke Rice is going to have

1654
01:41:42.079 --> 01:41:45.039
like twenty five new action figures to debut, and you

1655
01:41:45.079 --> 01:41:47.760
know that very next day, so you know that's going

1656
01:41:47.800 --> 01:41:51.199
to be happening over there in Misel. So we love you, Brian.

1657
01:41:51.239 --> 01:41:52.960
Please come on the show so we can stop talking

1658
01:41:52.960 --> 01:41:56.159
about you and start talking to you, which we would

1659
01:41:56.159 --> 01:41:58.760
all much prefer so. Anyhow, it's a ten week run

1660
01:41:59.199 --> 01:42:01.439
goes all the way out from that July drop date

1661
01:42:01.720 --> 01:42:05.239
to the nearly the end of September, September twenty fourth.

1662
01:42:05.319 --> 01:42:07.119
That's a whole lot of Star Trek and then we

1663
01:42:07.159 --> 01:42:09.119
get a whole nother season after that. So I know,

1664
01:42:09.159 --> 01:42:11.680
it seems kind of sad sometimes we're talking about like, okay,

1665
01:42:12.960 --> 01:42:16.600
cancelation this, cancelation that, right, but we got still in

1666
01:42:16.640 --> 01:42:21.039
the can guaranteed three full seasons of Star Trek that

1667
01:42:21.119 --> 01:42:23.600
we still get to know to enjoy. Right, So there's

1668
01:42:23.600 --> 01:42:26.039
still some you know, whether or not there be a

1669
01:42:26.079 --> 01:42:28.199
lot of TV after that, I don't know. I mean,

1670
01:42:28.239 --> 01:42:31.159
we'll see. I still think that My guess is that,

1671
01:42:31.279 --> 01:42:35.680
you know, I lose the term loosely. The brain trust

1672
01:42:35.800 --> 01:42:38.439
at Paramount is probably waiting to see how that last

1673
01:42:39.039 --> 01:42:42.079
fifth season ends, because they were definitely setting things up

1674
01:42:42.199 --> 01:42:46.319
with you know, Paul Wesley and Scottie and uh to

1675
01:42:46.399 --> 01:42:49.319
do a Star Trek year one thing. Just because they've

1676
01:42:49.319 --> 01:42:52.039
dismantled those sets doesn't mean they can't still make that happen,

1677
01:42:52.600 --> 01:42:55.319
right Because after this merger, they got more money than God,

1678
01:42:55.479 --> 01:42:57.960
so they mean they could really easily rebuild a new

1679
01:42:58.000 --> 01:43:01.359
set and start over if they want to. So we see,

1680
01:43:01.359 --> 01:43:04.159
I wouldn't. I wouldn't say that that series is off

1681
01:43:04.159 --> 01:43:06.560
the table yet. I think they're waiting to see how

1682
01:43:06.640 --> 01:43:10.720
things perform and what the fan reaction knows is my guess. Right,

1683
01:43:10.760 --> 01:43:13.760
So you know this, this is a business that is

1684
01:43:13.880 --> 01:43:18.960
driven by two motives cowardice and greed. All right, It's

1685
01:43:19.079 --> 01:43:22.199
very similar to Washington, right, And so they're gonna wait

1686
01:43:22.199 --> 01:43:25.159
and see and if there's a huge response and and

1687
01:43:25.159 --> 01:43:27.039
and the fans are just cannot wait to get their

1688
01:43:27.079 --> 01:43:30.680
hands on like a year one star Trek if you will,

1689
01:43:31.199 --> 01:43:35.680
TS prequel series with Paul Wesley's Kirk. There's a big response. Hey,

1690
01:43:35.920 --> 01:43:38.279
greeble went out, So don't give up the hope. You know,

1691
01:43:38.279 --> 01:43:40.800
if you like this stuff, let people know, be loud

1692
01:43:40.840 --> 01:43:43.279
about it, right and if people are criticizing it, yeah,

1693
01:43:43.319 --> 01:43:45.960
well fuck you. So anyhow, that's what I've got for

1694
01:43:46.000 --> 01:43:48.319
you this week, folks. As far as the news, I'm

1695
01:43:48.319 --> 01:43:50.319
going to pass this off to a more g rated

1696
01:43:50.560 --> 01:43:52.720
trucks word and that would be Uncle Charles.

1697
01:43:53.520 --> 01:43:56.279
I say, I won.

1698
01:43:56.640 --> 01:43:59.479
What did you think? What do you think about their Charles?

1699
01:44:00.560 --> 01:44:02.079
I was actually gonna make a comment.

1700
01:44:02.119 --> 01:44:05.920
I was doing some math on my calendar and looked.

1701
01:44:05.920 --> 01:44:10.880
It's like July twenty third, September twenty fourth is ten weeks.

1702
01:44:11.840 --> 01:44:15.119
We're not getting a double first episode this time, which

1703
01:44:15.159 --> 01:44:18.439
I am so happy we are not getting. I am

1704
01:44:18.520 --> 01:44:22.319
tire of the double episodes being hit two episodes released

1705
01:44:22.359 --> 01:44:26.960
the same week and then overloading podcasters like yeah, I

1706
01:44:27.000 --> 01:44:30.159
want one episode, give us one episode of time and

1707
01:44:30.199 --> 01:44:34.279
give us the night's cool easy stream.

1708
01:44:34.479 --> 01:44:36.920
So that's something that's making me happy right there.

1709
01:44:37.279 --> 01:44:41.239
And the easy easy a nice, cool easy stream. Are

1710
01:44:41.239 --> 01:44:49.960
we talking about our prospect weeks.

1711
01:44:43.560 --> 01:44:49.760
In nine weeks? Where's the ice pick?

1712
01:44:49.800 --> 01:44:53.399
I need to poke out episodes in nine weeks?

1713
01:44:56.119 --> 01:44:57.159
Sorry?

1714
01:44:58.399 --> 01:45:03.039
Remember ten episode in nine weeks and how that drove?

1715
01:45:04.600 --> 01:45:06.960
So I'm fine with that. Man. That's it's you gotta

1716
01:45:07.000 --> 01:45:09.159
just roll with it, right, I mean that was gonna happen.

1717
01:45:09.159 --> 01:45:11.560
I mean between now July. I mean we could be

1718
01:45:11.640 --> 01:45:17.239
you know, broadcasting from a civil defense. You know, anything's possiblely,

1719
01:45:17.239 --> 01:45:18.880
you just got to roll with it. It's just like

1720
01:45:19.520 --> 01:45:21.319
I don't I just I like, you know, as long

1721
01:45:21.359 --> 01:45:23.560
as the episodes are good, I don't care. I mean,

1722
01:45:23.560 --> 01:45:25.239
it's just like, you know, give me three at once,

1723
01:45:25.279 --> 01:45:27.039
as long as they don't suck and as song as

1724
01:45:27.079 --> 01:45:29.760
the writing is decent, I'm happy, man, I'm grateful to

1725
01:45:29.760 --> 01:45:32.159
get anything that's well produced. And then as a brain

1726
01:45:32.199 --> 01:45:34.960
in it, you know, well, I'm excited. I'm just I'm

1727
01:45:35.000 --> 01:45:36.680
excited to see it. I like this. This trailer is

1728
01:45:36.760 --> 01:45:39.640
very visual. It shows a lot of different kinds of episodes.

1729
01:45:40.600 --> 01:45:43.920
I think we kind of push the limits of comedy

1730
01:45:44.199 --> 01:45:47.560
with the last couple of seasons with the you know,

1731
01:45:47.960 --> 01:45:49.640
I spock, and I have emotions, and I have a

1732
01:45:49.640 --> 01:45:51.359
party hat, and I have all these different things.

1733
01:45:51.159 --> 01:45:52.439
And I'm not this and I'm that.

1734
01:45:52.640 --> 01:45:56.000
I think maybe, you know, tap the brakes on that

1735
01:45:56.000 --> 01:45:57.880
ship a little bit right and just give us some

1736
01:45:58.079 --> 01:46:01.600
you know, Pulpy, this is, folks, what I've seen Pulpy,

1737
01:46:01.760 --> 01:46:05.279
old fashioned storytelling. So I'm really hopeful. I really hope

1738
01:46:05.279 --> 01:46:09.439
it's good. In fact, you've got the mic, baby, You've

1739
01:46:09.479 --> 01:46:11.640
got one more story here, and it's toy related, so

1740
01:46:11.680 --> 01:46:18.960
I'm well, Master, Okay, don't the word master, but it's

1741
01:46:19.680 --> 01:46:20.920
master replica is related.

1742
01:46:20.960 --> 01:46:23.880
So there, Okay, Paul's done in a strange new world.

1743
01:46:25.239 --> 01:46:31.439
For God's sake, I'm just I'm just sitting the okay,

1744
01:46:32.000 --> 01:46:33.279
to help Paul out.

I didn't hear the book was out yet, but I'm

01:48:48.239 --> 01:48:50.920

Uh mayday, may day.

1782
01:49:03.159 --> 01:49:05.159
Unless you have a time machine, I'm not pretty new.

1783
01:49:08.279 --> 01:49:10.560
Wasn't that guess great? I mean we just can we

1784
01:49:10.800 --> 01:49:13.640
wrap up? Just chatting about Tara was just a bit.

1785
01:49:13.720 --> 01:49:16.840
She was quite scintillating and uh man, I'd like to

1786
01:49:16.880 --> 01:49:18.720
see that's kind of person you want to seeing a

1787
01:49:18.720 --> 01:49:19.319
lot of work from.

1788
01:49:19.399 --> 01:49:19.560
Right.

1789
01:49:19.600 --> 01:49:23.039
She was just great and it was very disengaging and

1790
01:49:23.239 --> 01:49:27.800
thoughtful and uh and uh and funny and just very appreciative.

1791
01:49:27.800 --> 01:49:30.039
She was a lovely guests. Really nice to be able

1792
01:49:30.039 --> 01:49:31.199
to have her on it.

1793
01:49:31.239 --> 01:49:33.760
I didn't really, I mean I feel I didn't want

1794
01:49:33.800 --> 01:49:36.640
to ask her. I didn't have a chance to. But

1795
01:49:37.079 --> 01:49:39.520
what do you think is is? Uh, I can't keep it.

1796
01:49:39.680 --> 01:49:52.239
I need to get headphones sorry anyway, not h flat flat, yes, anyway.

1797
01:49:52.760 --> 01:49:54.880
I wonder what do you think is what is behind

1798
01:49:54.960 --> 01:49:59.600
all the drought in the uh, you know, the acting world.

1799
01:50:00.159 --> 01:50:01.960
They it sounds like she and her husband are just

1800
01:50:02.000 --> 01:50:04.399
really struggling, and I just my heart goes out to her.

1801
01:50:06.359 --> 01:50:09.159
What is that's tough? I mean, it's just just like

1802
01:50:09.199 --> 01:50:12.600
it's a money driven business man and even stage things.

1803
01:50:12.600 --> 01:50:17.439
Everything's expensive, yeah, everything because of like it's like everything

1804
01:50:17.520 --> 01:50:21.880
rolls downhill, price of gas, groceries, politics, thing, right, So

1805
01:50:21.920 --> 01:50:24.079
it's just people are people are afraid to invest a

1806
01:50:24.119 --> 01:50:27.600
lot of money in a new project if they are uncertain.

1807
01:50:27.199 --> 01:50:28.359
About what's right.

1808
01:50:28.479 --> 01:50:30.279
So it's just it's a tough gig.

1809
01:50:30.920 --> 01:50:34.039
And it's very competitive, right, you know, it's like you

1810
01:50:34.119 --> 01:50:36.239
go up for an acting audition and you know it's

1811
01:50:36.239 --> 01:50:38.640
like she said, right, you're up against tons of people.

1812
01:50:39.000 --> 01:50:41.920
She got that job because somebody recommended her personally, right,

1813
01:50:42.479 --> 01:50:45.279
you know that doesn't most actors aren't that lucky. And

1814
01:50:45.359 --> 01:50:47.520
you know, she just took it. What she ended up

1815
01:50:47.520 --> 01:50:49.439
doing like fifteen sixteen episodes.

1816
01:50:49.079 --> 01:50:52.479
Right was Usually that was wonderful.

1817
01:50:52.880 --> 01:50:55.760
Usually it's like paycheck paycheck, you I mean, it is,

1818
01:50:56.159 --> 01:50:57.079
but tough.

1819
01:50:56.960 --> 01:51:00.239
Business, it sure is. But and then when they went

1820
01:51:00.319 --> 01:51:03.600
not that long ago, went through the strike, so that

1821
01:51:03.800 --> 01:51:06.399
was that was difficult as well.

1822
01:51:06.800 --> 01:51:12.119
She was lovely to Hope. You know, I really liked

1823
01:51:12.119 --> 01:51:14.560
her parting thoughts about like you know, hey, you know,

1824
01:51:16.119 --> 01:51:18.199
you know, put it out into the universe. You know,

1825
01:51:18.279 --> 01:51:21.479
it's like, you know, try to, you know, fulfill your dreams,

1826
01:51:21.520 --> 01:51:24.520
and it be so easy to let fear overtake you

1827
01:51:24.640 --> 01:51:26.319
in your ambitions. Right, that was?

1828
01:51:26.960 --> 01:51:31.600
Yeah, I thought, was do you remember who else that

1829
01:51:31.640 --> 01:51:34.039
we had on the show that had that same sort

1830
01:51:34.079 --> 01:51:37.039
of philosophy?

1831
01:51:37.880 --> 01:51:38.159
Yeah?

1832
01:51:38.399 --> 01:51:42.640
I think it was mel Brooks, right, if I remember correct,

1833
01:51:42.760 --> 01:51:44.239
that one really drunken night.

1834
01:51:45.359 --> 01:51:48.720
If he had I would love to talk to mel Brooks.

1835
01:51:48.720 --> 01:51:54.399
Oh my god, No, it was Christine horn Bytha. She

1836
01:51:54.399 --> 01:51:58.319
she was really into into the whole belief in the

1837
01:51:58.319 --> 01:52:02.880
the manifesting, which that's that's really cool. I'm trying to

1838
01:52:02.920 --> 01:52:06.439
get into that and it's it's sometimes easier said than done,

1839
01:52:06.479 --> 01:52:10.159
and I yeah, but anyway, that was that was neat

1840
01:52:10.199 --> 01:52:12.960
that she said that, and that was I remember that

1841
01:52:13.000 --> 01:52:15.479
from when we had Christine on the show, so.

1842
01:52:17.760 --> 01:52:18.039
