The Way Home

Today we’re heading north of the border to welcome an actor whose career has taken him into some seriously interesting worlds.

Our guest is Canadian actor David Webster, whose credits include the crime drama Unabomber (now available on Netflix), the hit series The Boys, the time-traveling family drama The Way Home, and Mr. Monk’s Last Case.

Whether he’s dealing with superheroes, murder mysteries, time travel, or one very particular detective, David Webster seems to have figured out that no two jobs should ever be boring!

Today, we’re talking about his journey into acting, the roles that have shaped his career, some of the incredible productions he's worked on, and what happens behind the scenes when the cameras stop rolling.

The Chestnut Tree

Let's step away from the usual superheroes, movies, and pop culture rabbit holes and into the world of storytelling with an author whose work explores the power of imagination, memory, and the stories that stay with us long after we turn the final page.

Joining Pop Culture Addicts today is Matthew Tekulsky, author of The Chestnut Tree.

Now, every good book has a story behind the story — where the idea came from, what inspired the characters, and what ultimately made the author sit down and say, “Okay… I have to write this.”

So today, we’re going to get into all of that.

We’ll talk about The Chestnut Tree, Matthew’s inspiration behind the book, his writing process, and what he hopes readers take away from the story.

Drawing Family Guy

You know those moments on Family Guy where you’re laughing so hard you completely forget what the joke was?

Well, there’s a whole team of incredibly talented people behind those moments — and today, we’re talking to one of them!

Our guest is Patrick McCarthy, a storyboard artist who has worked on the hit animated series Family Guy. Patrick is one of the artists helping take those scripts, jokes, characters, and completely ridiculous situations and turn them into the visual comedy we see on screen.

So, how does a joke go from a line on a script to something that actually makes it onto television? What does a storyboard artist really do? And what’s it like working behind the scenes on one of the most recognizable animated shows in pop culture?

Mike Barnes vs The World

Today we revisit our 2021 conversation with Sean Kanan, the man behind Mike Barnes in Karate Kid 3 and Cobra Kai. Just one year post-COVID, we thoroughly enjoyed our time with Sean and got to know him a little better.

We talked with Sean about his work as Mike Barnes, his time on The Bold and the Beautiful as Deacon Sharpe, and his most recent book at the time - The Way of the Cobra- and his Emmy-winning show, Studio City, available on Amazon Prime Video.

To make sure that your Karate ISN'T a joke, find out more about Sean Kanan here -

It's Shiny! Firefly RPG Episode 1

Last month, we began our new RPG with Episode ZERO, where we created our new characters.

Tonight, with fully created characters in tow and dice in hand, we are ready to be led into danger by our GM, Casey Plott! Episode 1 officially steers us into the world of Firefly.

So grab your favorite snacks, something delightful to drink, and settle in to see how well our dice lead us into danger. And, although our GM may have danger in his heart, there ain't a power in the verse that can stop this signal!

We have some misbehavin' to do ...
