Once We Were Spacemen

         Alan once spotted a rock legend across a crowded bar and decided, with a little liquid courage, that he had to say hello. He had one shot at a first impression. He did not stick the landing. Nathan has his own brushes with greatness, including a surprise phone call with a childhood hero and a run-in with a comedy icon. Follow Once We Were Spacemen wherever you get your podcasts.

Mekia Cox doesn’t do anything halfway. Eight months after having a baby, she joined The Rookie and spent her first week sprinting after a stunt double and (literally) getting thrown by Nathan. She’s been going all out since age seven, when she started performing professionally. During one audition, she gave so much that the only note she received was to calm down. That commitment extends to a specific sound she makes on set. Nathan enjoys watching new guest stars hear it for the first time. Follow Once We Were Spacemen wherever you get your podcasts.

In this episode, we learn just how close Alan came to spending time in a military prison. Spoiler, it was close. It was very close. Meanwhile, Nathan’s home seems to be conspiring against him. From critters (living and dead) to rogue appliances, it’s one battle after another. Sit back, relax, and get ready to learn absolutely nothing.

Bruce Campbell got his start hauling cable and holding cue cards in Detroit, back when the likes of Frank Sinatra were shooting car commercials as a favor to a friend. Decades later, he can tell you which lens is best suited for handsome actors, how voices get ruined in the mix, and why he no longer touches his watch on set. He's also one of the few actors who can talk back to Sam Raimi. His new film, Ernie & Emma, is what Bruce calls "a return to truly independent filmmaking." He's bringing it to Alamo Drafthouse theaters nationwide through November 14. Tickets at Drafthouse.com. Follow Once We Were Spacemen wherever you get your podcasts.

Alan Tudyk has been cemented as a Disney Legend, complete with a letter from a former Disney CEO… no, the other one. He wrote three acceptance speeches for the ceremony. The two that were cut for reasons of self-preservation get performed here instead. Follow Once We Were Spacemen wherever you get your podcasts.
