The Sackhoff Show

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

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

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

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

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