The Sackhoff Show

Happy Tuesday! If you are a true Star Trek fan like I am, then this week’s episode is for you. I am talking with my friends Sam Witwer and David Collins about their beautiful and controversial new Star Trek film, 765874 Unification. If you love Star Trek and haven’t heard about this project, go check it out before you listen to this week’s episode! ...

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Lake Bell and I are kind of the same person. You'll hear all about in the episode, but the similarities are WILD. I loved this conversation with Lake-- we nerd out about our favorite cars, we talk about how we've both voiced Poison Ivy and we really bond over our kids' health struggles. Lake is insanely smart and talented and I really admire her so much. S...

Hi everyone, happy Tuesday! Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a stunt performer? Then you’ll love this week’s conversation with my guest, Patrick Sabongui. Patrick is a brilliant actor, but he got his start in stunts and if you’ve watched an action movie in the last 20 years, you’ve probably seen his work . We first met when on Christmas Sail, where he played Luke Fletch...

Happy Tuesday! We’ve got a great episode for you this week. If you are a fan of Star Trek or Walking Dead, then you know Sonequa Martin-Green. In addition to playing Sasha Williams and Commander Michael Burnham on Discovery, Sonequa is currently starring alongside Natalie Morales in the moving new film My Dead Friend Zoe. I have been a fan of Sonequa’s work for a long time and I a...

Happy Tuesday everyone! I’m so excited for you to listen to this episode. I first met Cassidy Freeman on Longmire, where she played Cady Longmire. Before that, you may have seen her as Tess Mercer on Smallville and she’s currently starring in the final season of Righteous Gemstones, where she plays Amber Gemstone. Cassidy is obviously extremely talented, and she’s freaking hilario...

If you’re a fan of Schitt’s Creek, then you know Sarah Levy from playing Twyla in the show-- she also happens to be the daughter of Eugene Levy and the sister of Dan Levy. I had such a fun time hearing the inside scoop on that show, which is one of my favorites of all tim...

Happy Tuesday Everyone! Last week’s episode with Battlestar Galactica creator Ron Moore was such a doozy, we had to call in re-enforcements to discuss it. And who better than my Battlestar Bestie Tricia Helfer? You know Tricia from her role as Number Six. She also played Charlotte Richards/Goddess on Lucifer and voiced Sarah Kerrigan in StarCraft II, among many other roles. I love...

Look out, everyone: This week’s episode is an all-timer! We’ve got the one and only Ron Moore in the STUDIO. I am still so intimidated by Ron and it was such an honor to sit down with him for this conversation. If you DON’T know Ron Moore, I don’t even know what to say. He created Battlestar Galactica, Outlander and For All Mankind. He spent a decad...

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 Sh...

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 AE...

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.

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...

**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 ...

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...

Hey everyone! 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-im...

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...

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 th...

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 ...

Happy Holidays, everyone! On today’s special, extended Hindsight episode, Jeph and I are joined by our most-requested guest... Robin! Robin has written not one but three Hallmark movies, and we got to work together on his first one: Christmas Sail. We walked Jeph through the process of how that came to be and if we'll ever do another. And it wouldn’t be a Christmas episode without a debate about Die Hard (we settle it once and for ...
