It was an honor to talk to the great Paul Giamatti about his emotional and thought-provoking work on 'Eulogy' from Black Mirror. It is a remarkable episode that proposes a lot of ideas about processing, and the people that have gone by. Our conversation inspired an idea that could lead to him revisiting this character one day.
We also talk about the TV he loves. He chose some classic shows and some new ones to the podcast. He was really wonderful to speak with welcome back anytime.

The talented Matt Berry sits on the TV Topics couch to discuss his work of bringing Laszlo Cravensworth worth to life...or is that to death or... the undead?? Anyway you want to put it the actor injects a lot of great detail and thought into crafting one of TVs funniest characters. Admittedly, he hasn't watched a great deal of television. But that was just a speed bump for the podcast. As he took me down roads, I didn't expect digging into his passion for music, some first time mentioned shows, and even some Benny Hill. It is a unique but fascinating conversation.

Kaitlyn Dever transforms for each role, using subtitles to say much more than words can. Look at her characters in 'The Last of Us' and 'Apple Cider Vinegar', same actress, two completely different personas. The actress discusses taking on challenges throughout her career - choosing to play very different characters and breathing a soul into them.

CARRIE COON joins me on the TV Topics couch to dig into her THE WHITE LOTUS character, Laurie. We discuss her infamous sprint from danger, the soul crushing moment more people need to be discussing, making dinner, commercials, The Leftovers ending, and plenty of TV Topics.

The talented and Melanie Lynskey sits on the TV Topics couch for a fun conversation that really allows her to dive into her character Shauna on 'Yellowjackets'. Season three has shifted the needle about what drives her and is the fan treatment of her fair. That's just the tip of the iceberg. I found it fascinating.
Sadly due to a scheduling issue the conversation was cut short by several minutes which sped up the conversation and forced me to skip a few questions I was dying to ask. We could have used an additional 30 minutes.
With that said, she was amazing, sweet, and made the most of our time. She is welcome back ANYTIME to continue the conversation, dive back into her work, and to answer more TV Topics.
Melanie provided some original answers to the TV Topics questions including one of my favorites to date when she reference a 'Yellowjackets' co-star and an iconic series she starred on.
We also have a surprise guest, one who is also welcome as a guest when he is not shooting 'Matlock' and some four-legged friends.

Aldis Hodge grabs a seat on the TV Topics couch to examines his work on Prime Video's CROSS, a series based on the character created by James Patterson. During an animated discussion Aldis not only dives into all things Alex Cross, he also talks about the TV that shaped and entertained him over the years.
His interests are wide ranging with a deep passion for an animated genre, one that I am not very well versed in, but had my interest because of the case Hodge made for it. If you have some recommendations of shows or episodes to start with, please add to the comments.
Be sure to watch Aldis on Prime Video's Cross. It is a bizarre, dark, wild ride based in human emotion and complexity - much more than just a whodunit.

The talented Rob Delaney sits on the TV Topics couch for a fun conversation that covers a lot of ground and even has an another musical interlude. We dive into his attention grabbing work in 'Dying for Sex'. Living in Britain, he brings some unique answers for the TV Topics portion of the conversation with a couple of series I have yet to watch and some classics including a darker take on 'The Brady Bunch' than I expected.
Give the episode a listen, even if you have not watched Rob in 'Catastrophe' or 'Dying For Sex' - once you are done, add them to your queue.

The talented Kayvan Novak sits on the TV Topics couch for a fun conversation that covers a lot of ground and even has a musical interlude or two. We talk his innovative way to launch his career, 'What We Do In The Shadows', CHiPs, 1980's Toys, 'Mannibal', and so much more including his never heard before pitch for a WWDITS prequel.
When all is said and done, you cannot help but appreciate the man, his work, and his humor more than ever before. This conversation could have gone another hour if you ask me. My only regrets, Kayvan's mouth trumpet did not record properly - it was wonderful. Give this episode a listen and PLEASE give this man and the series an Emmy.
