Once We Were Spacemen

Sure, Nathan and Alan have stellar careers now – they're number ones on their respective shows! (Have they mentioned that before?) But once upon a time, they were just starting out, hustling to make it in Hollywood. Alan was once the 104th actor to audition for a role because the casting director didn't want to call him. And another time, Nathan played an octopus named 42.

Now, Jewel Staite stars in Family Law and enjoys making cooking videos for her YouTube channel. But once, she was the youngest cast member on Firefly… despite the fact that she’d already been a working actor for years. She was also once Canadian and – actually – that one still stands.    Find Jewel's cooking videos (and much more) on her YouTube channel: @JewelStaiteOfficial. 

Once, Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk were spacemen… who played a lot of Halo in their downtime. They once did a photo shoot in the back of a Walmart, and this other time Nathan got revenge on an inconsiderate neighbor. And once… you know what, you should probably just listen to the episode.

Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk were once spacemen. Since their time on Firefly, their friendship has been marked by comic-con panels and the occasional cameo. Now they're hosting a podcast where they connect with fellow creatives, exploring who they were and what they're up to now. It's highly entertaining… and if you're not interested, at least tell your mom about it. She definitely has a thing for Nathan.
