• Rahul Kohli Creates a New Archetype, from iZombie to Midnight Mass

  Happy Tuesday, Everyone! This week, I sat down with my new friend Rahul Kohli to chat, while on a break from filming Mike Flanagan’s new show Carrie. In addition to co-starring with me on the new project, Rahul has found so many new fans as a heartthrob in Mike’s other recent shows, including playing Owen in The Haunting of Bly Manor, Sheriff Hassan in Midnight Mass and Leo Usher in The Fall of The House of Usher. You may also know him from his roles as Ravi Chakrabarti in iZombie and Bri in The Life of Chuck, as well as his prolific video game voice work. We had a lot of fun talking about how he fell in love with movies and video games, while growing up as a South Asian kid in the UK and he found his way as an actor without a well-worn path to follow. This conversation really feels like two friends sitting down for coffee, getting real about the life of a working actor— from how to use social media, to embracing insecurity and learning to let go and trust your director. I feel much closer to Rahul after this conversation, and I think you will too! Be sure to stick around after our chat for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I talk about the episode, share details about upcoming live shows and vent about an airplane nemesis!

• Tahmoh Penikett on Feeling Destined to Play Helo and Why BSG Matters More Than Ever

  Hi Everyone, Happy Tuesday! As many of you know, I am currently shooting up in Vancouver with none other than my amazing BSG co-star Tahmoh Penikett. So of course that means now is the perfect time for him to join me on the podcast! In addition to his role as Karl “Helo” Agathon in Battlestar, Tahmoh has also appeared on Supernatural and as Paul Ballard on Dollhouse. It has been such a joy getting to reconnect with him on this new job— and you’ll see why in this interview. We talk about his childhood as the son of a politician in the Yukon, his relationship with his First Nations grandmother, his journey as an actor and why Helo was a part he felt destined to play. Tahmoh is such a thoughtful, charismatic guy and our conversation goes deep, fast! We have a really important conversation about the state of the world and why Battlestar still matters after two decades. We also talk openly about navigating doubt as an actor and what it takes to re-build your confidence after difficult on-set experiences. There’s lots of laughter and even some tears, but that’s talking with Tahmoh! Please remember to stick around for the Hindsight this week, where my producer Jeph and I talk about the interview and celebrate Jeph’s one-year anniversary as Hindsight co-host!

• Brandon Routh on Finding Closure As Superman and Letting Go of Ego on His New Film Ick

  Happy Tuesday! With a new version of Superman hitting movie theaters, I was so happy to chat with one of my favorite Men of Steel this week - you guys, it’s Brandon Routh! You know Brandon from playing Clark Kent/Superman in Superman Returns. He also played Daniel Shaw on Chuck, Todd Ingram in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Ray Palmer/The Atom across the Berlanti Arrow Universe. We talk about this in the interview, but I feel like Brandon’s version of Superman maybe didn’t get the appreciation it deserved at the time. It was interesting to talk with him about living up to the legacy of Christopher Reeve and how it feels to watch David Corenswet wear the blue cape. We also discuss how Brandon was able to find closure by playing Superman again in the 2019 Arrowverse crossover event “Crisis on Infinite Earths.” I really enjoyed this conversation and Brandon is such a lovely, grounded guy. I can’t wait to see him in his new film Ick, directed by one of my favorite directors Joseph Kahn (who also directed me in the short Power/Rangers). Be sure to stick around after the interview for the hindsight, straight from a hotel in Vancouver. I am up in Canada shooting this week, I’ve always got time for a little chat with my producer Jeph and some fan comments and questions from the Mail Sack!

• Steve Guttenberg Spreads Positivity and Talks Riding the Waves of 50 Years in Show Biz

  Can we talk about how great Steve Guttenberg is? He is obviously a terrific actor and has been working longer than I’ve been alive, but he is also just such a source of positivity— I could have kept talking to him for hours! You of course know Steve Guttenberg from iconic roles like Michael Kellam in Three Men and a Baby, Carey Mahoney in Police Academy or Jack Bonner in Cocoon. Since that time he has really matured into a character actor and he continues to act in TV and movies all the time. We talk about how he has gone about building a career that lasts and how he surrounds himself with grounded, positive people. We also have a moving conversation about his book Time to Thank, in which he writes about his experience being a caregiver for his father toward the end of his life. If you are in need of a pump-up speech or a dose of happy positivity, this is the episode for you! Be sure to stick around after our conversation for the Hindsight where my producer Jeph and I talk about all things Guttenberg, including the absolutely insane story he tells about sneaking onto the Paramount lot when he was a teenager. We also answer fan questions and respond to comments in the Mail Sack!

• George Takei on Star Trek, Coming Out Late in Life and His New Book It Rhymes with Takei

  Oh MY have we got a good one for you this week! I am so thrilled to have the incredible George Takei on the show. What a joy to sit down with an absolute icon. George became a household name playing Sulu on many iterations of Star Trek. He also played Kaito Nakamura in Heroes and he and I had so much fun playing ourselves together on The Big Bang Theory. Throughout his career, George has always been an activist and we talk about that side of his life in this conversation as well. He has a new graphic memoir out now called “It Rhymes with Takei,” which is all about his experience as a closeted man in Hollywood and then coming out at age 68. We discuss what that time in his life was like, and we talk about the origins of his activism, going all the way back to his early childhood in an internment camp during World War II. It was a privilege to get to have this conversation and I hope you enjoy it! Be sure to stick around afterwards for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I discuss the episode and I learn this is not the first time Jeph has met George Takei. Plus, we answer fan questions from the Mail Sack!
