Once We Were Spacemen

Nathan has had some incredible bosses – most recently Alexi Hawley, creator and showrunner of The Rookie. In this episode, Alexi shares stories from his drummer days, walks us through how The Rookie came to life, and demystifies the whole "how do you become a showrunner?" question. Also? Chickens.

Once, Alan walked around the set of A Knight's Tale wearing a cowboy hat with the confidence of a true Texan. Despite his bold fashion choice, he struck up a close friendship with British actor Mark Addy. Both Alan and Mark regale Nathan with fond memories of working with Heath Ledger and exploring the Czech Republic. Mark also takes us through his storied career… from The Full Monty to his memorable turn as Robert Baratheon in Game of Thrones. Follow Once We Were Spacemen wherever you get your podcasts.

Is there a doctor on the spaceship? There is now. Nathan received an honorary doctorate – a moment he may never have reached without learning to deploy his alter ego during auditions. Also, both Alan and Nathan speak fluent Czech… thanks to dubbing.

​​Gina Torres is known for playing the formidable Jessica Pearson in Suits and its spinoff Pearson. But before she became a star, she attended New York's legendary Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School (remember Fame?). She also did stunt shows in rubber pants… because every career has its chapters. And once, Gina and Alan shared an on-screen kiss that Alan remembers in remarkable detail. He never misses a chance to tell that story. Nathan loves giving him a hard time about it.
