Rachael Harris Talks Bringing the Comedy on Suits, Lucifer and The Hangover

Hi everyone! We’ve got a really fun episode for you today. It’s not every week I get to interview someone where I’m just genuinely a huge fan, but that is what happened with Harvey Guillen. I literally went up to him at a convention and told him I loved him (couldn’t help myself!). If you don’t know Harvey’s work as Guillermo in What We Do in the Shadows, stop what you’re doing and go watch. I absolutely love him on that show. He’s got a new movie out called Companion, where he plays Eli. You may also know his amazing voice work in movies like Wish, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish and The Garfield Movie. It was such a treat to spend some time with him and get to know him better! I particularly loved getting to talk to him about his red carpet collaborations with Christian Siriano and others. After the interview, be sure to stick around for the Hindsight where producer Jeph and I talk about why he has so many pictures of me on his phone! Plus, we pull fan questions from the Mail Sack. Come see us live in Indiana! Get your tickets here! https://indianacomicconvention.com/feature/the-sackhoff-show/

Happy Tuesday, everyone! For today’s episode, I am getting into the ring with my friend Mercedes Varnado (more wrestling puns to come, don’t worry). I met Mercedes on The Mandalorian where she plays Koska Reeves, and she is a superstar in the world of wrestling. As Sasha Banks, she was the first woman to headline a WWE Pay-Per-View Event and as Mercedes Moné, she is the current AEW TBS Champion in her first reign. She doesn’t give very many interviews out of character, so this was a real treat. We talk about wrestling and acting, and what they have in common, and we just talk about life. It was interesting to hear her reflect on her evolution as an entertainer and what it has taken to become the CEO of her own career. Be sure to get up off the mat and stick around for the Hindsight (see what I did there?) where my producer Jeph and I talk about the interview and answer fan questions from the Mail Sack!

Happy Tuesday! We’ve got a super-fun episode for you this week— it’s my friend, the hilarious Rachael Harris! Rachael is hands down one of the funniest people I know and if you don’t know her name, you definitely know her work. She’s been in movies like The Hangover, Best in Show and Diary of a Wimpy Kid and has done a ton of TV, including playing Sheila Sazs on Suits and Linda Martin on Lucifer. We talk about where her sense of humor comes from and how it has gotten her through difficult times in life. We laugh a LOT in this episode, and the conversation also gets deep pretty fast— we talk about both choosing surrogacy and how having kids changed how we view our parents. It’s a beautiful conversation with one of my favorite people— I hope you check it out! Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where producer Jeph tells me about Winnebago Man and we trade horror stories about terrible cups of coffee.

Hi everyone! For today’s episode, I got to talk with one of my absolute best friends in the world. You guys, it’s Adam Bartley! Adam and I first met on Longmire, where he played The Ferg. We have stayed super-close over the years— he even lived in my backyard for awhile, but that’s another story! Adam is such a talented actor and a beautiful human being. We talk about his recent experience playing Byron in Night Sky, as well as his theatre background, including being mentored by Mandy Patinkin. We talk about how the cast of Longmire became a family and no spoilers, but our interview even gets interrupted by a certain mutual friend! Be sure to stick around for the hindsight, where we have another surprise guest for you— friend of the show Paul Sun-Hyung Lee is back to unbox his new action figure. It’s a packed episode— you won’t want to miss this one! Send me an email [email protected] Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles

**Section 31 Spoilers!** Happy Tuesday everyone! Today’s guest is the amazing Rob Kazinsky. Rob and I have never worked together, but we’ve been in the same circles for years and it was such a pleasure to sit down and talk with him! You know Rob from his time as Sean Slater on EastEnders, and from playing Chuck Hansen in Pacific Rim and Orgrim in Warcraft. And now, he is fulfilling my dream and joining the Stark Trek universe. You can currently see him as Zeph in Section 31! We talk about the new movie and the controversy it’s stirring up among the Star Trek faithful. We also just talk about life, including Rob’s autism diagnosis and how he has weathered some challenging moments over the course of his career. I was surprised at how deep we got in such a short time, and I think you’ll enjoy this conversation! Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where producer Jeph and I discuss the episode and open up the Mail Sack for some fan emails. If you want to join me at the Indiana Comic Convention, I'll be there March 14-16!

Hi everyone! Today’s episode was such a treat. I have known Alexandra Breckenridge since we were babies in the industry— we did a pilot together called Locust Valley almost 25 years ago. Since then, Alexandra has had an unbelievable career. She played Jessie Anderson on The Walking Dead, Sophie Larson on This Is Us and now she’s doing amazing work as Melinda Monroe on Virgin River. We talk about what it takes to build resiliency as an actor and why we both ultimately decided to leave California. I gotta say, she lives on a beautiful farm in Georgia and if you don’t already follow her on Instagram, you definitely should. Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where producer Jeph and I give an update on the fires in LA and read your pitches for how I can brand a day of the week for Bo-Katan (Fracked-Up Fridays, anyone?).

My guest this week is the one and only Mark-Paul Gosselaar. That’s right— it’s Zack Morris from Saved By The Bell! Teenage me would be absolutely FREAKING OUT. Of course, Mark-Paul has had a long and super-impressive career since his heartthrob days and we get into all of it. From Franklin & Bash to Pitch to his current role as Hugh "Sir" Evans on NBC's Found, he really has an unbelievable range. Plus, we also talk about our shared love of motorcycles (or maybe former love?), racing and fitness. The two of us could do a whole podcast about the glories of a cold plunge and sauna, but we TRY to control ourselves. After my conversation with Mark-Paul, be sure to stick around for the Hindsight where my producer Jeph and I discuss health trends, our sleep habits and the pros and cons of splurging on a fancy mattress.

Happy Tuesday everyone! If you don’t know this week’s guest, then I don’t know what to tell you. Lou Diamond Phillips is a Hollywood Institution and I can’t believe I get to call him my friend. I had such a crush on Lou in Young Guns and it still blows my mind I got to act with him all these years later on Longmire, where he played Henry Standing Bear. He’s had an incredible career, from La Bamba and Stand and Deliver, to countless TV and film roles— and let me tell you, Lou’s got some STORIES. We get into all of it, from the legendary dinners he cooked on the set of Longmire to his transition from bad boy to girl dad. You’re not gonna want to miss this one! And as always, stick around for the hindsight, where I answer fan questions, try out a new stripper name and unveil a special surprise for one of our guests!

Hey Everyone! Man, I love today’s guest. You know Emily Swallow as the Armorer on The Mandalorian, as well as from her many years on Supernatural. She is one of my absolute favorite humans— she’s wise, funny and a total badass! We discuss all things Star Wars, from convention life, to keeping plot secrets, to the challenges of acting in a helmet. We also have a great conversation about the role that faith plays in her acting and the way she has used her platform to help kids fighting cancer, through the organization Voices Against Cancer. Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where producer Jeph and I debate Daylight Savings and answer fan questions from the mail sack!

Hey everyone, what a year! On this bonus Hindsight, producer Jeph and I go over some of the highlights of this year’s show. From Paul Sun-Hyung Lee’s quest for his own action figure to Jewel Staite on posting sexy photos as a mom, there is a LOT to talk about! Plus, we revisit the most controversial clip of the year, when Ming Na Wen and I discussed how I could possibly NOT KNOW I was in a scene with Luke Skywalker and R2-D2. Jeph and I debate the pros and cons of living forever and brainstorm how to (finally!) get me into the Star Trek universe. Thank you everyone for an amazing year and get ready for big things to come in 2025! Send me an email [email protected] Produced by Rabbit Grin Productions Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles
