20 Years of 24

When Justin and I spoke with actor Kiefer Sutherland, we practiced our questions for the first and last time ever. We had no intention to ask our special guest about his legendary parents, yet he spoke fondly of both during our April 23, 2021 conversation, which is posted here .  We hope you enjoy this brief excerpt and find one of Donald's numerous performances to watch tonight. "The towering pre...

Howard Gordon once again spends time with us! Check out his newest show "Accused" here .

To paraphrase the iconic band that glorified tribute act Greta von Fleet claims they've never listened to, "It's been a long time since we talked 24." Gosh, we missed you. For our Season 2 renewal, we needed a very special guest for a very special episode. Marisol Nichols exceeded all expectations and talked about how she thought 24 would never cast her, being the most unique Audrey Griswold , how...

It was a joy to speak with our guest Nazneen Contractor about a great many things, including the recent renewal of her CTV show, Children Ruin Everything and its family connection! We also cover how she simultaneously was cast on 24 and learned to drive, Hallmarkies, being married to Yakavetta, advice from Mark Hamill and then the Star Wars universe and, of course, the Canadian Conspiracy. https:/...

It is amazing who you will meet in the 24 Universe! Twin siblings Frank and Mara grew up less than 30 minutes from me, but it took Jack Bauer and the holy grail of VHS tapes to bring us together. Joined by Aaron, the fearless leader of the 24 Universe, we talk about the Motor City, meeting Kiefer, Us Weekly, baseball stadiums, playing music on Sirius XM, following your passion and how our guests u...

To paraphrase GnR, "she used to love him, but she had to kill him". There are a handful of truly great twists and shocks on 24. The tale of Marie Warner is easily in my Top 5 of the series. And this wasn't even the first time she fooled me! It was a thrill to reunite Laura with her "sister" Sarah Wynter in November, and we get to hear how they kinda became sisters beyond the show. We also talk abo...

When you admire CTU, the Presidential Retreat and the overall look and feel of 24, you have Joseph Hodges to thank. Joseph shares the inspiration of his set designs and the importance of the word "re-purposing"! In addition to 24, you have seen his work everywhere from Apollo 13, The Shawshank Redemption, Virtuosity and several Star Trek iterations. Gamers, including us, also appreciate his contri...

Guest and Emmy-Award winner David Fury gave us yet another chance to geek out - not only about our favorite show, but also about his roles with Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, and graduating from Lost after its groundbreaking first year to join the 24 team. David talks about collaborating with Howard Gordon and how that led him to 24, the value that he brought as a comedy writer and an actor, and...

We thought that the best way to celebrate the release date of Bloor Street was to unleash the audio interview with our esteemed guest Kiefer William Frederick Dempsey George Rufus Sutherland, also known as Jack Bauer. This is taken from the exclusive 20 Years Of 24 event, which took place on the 20th anniversary of the 24 Pilot. 1. Listen and enjoy. 2. Get your copy of Bloor Street here: https://k...

A real thrill to talk to Karina about her role on 24, as well as Orange Is The New Black, Dangerous Minds, Crash and Lean On Me, and the movie set where she met Kiefer Sutherland for the first time! When Canada got cable TV, she was on my screen several times a day, and you can find her now on NBC's The Blacklist. Karina brought her A-Game to the podcast, and we are honored that we spent the time...

If you are a big fan of 24, a lot of your thanks can go to Debi Manwiller! Debi's ability to find talent is a key component of the 24 Universe. I frequently compare 24 to Seinfeld, because the more you re-watch each show, the more you recognize faces and names that are now leading shows, directing film and changing the landscape. We talk about massively turning over the cast each year, helping the...

Rob Weiss. Moe Howard. Marky Bark. Russ Hanneman. The voice of Mickey Freakin’ Mouse! We are always glad to welcome another Canadian 24Fan (especially a funny one), as Chris shares the importance of persistence, learning to watch Larry Fine more closely, getting "that Farrelly Call" and the role that adventure plays throughout his life and career. Also, I forgot Andy Kaufman’s name. Bonus: when yo...

Giles Matthey talks Live Another Day with us, and how much he respected and enjoyed 24 long before he joined the cast! We also discuss the importance of Risk in the life of an individual, why he chose to do the thriller 1BR and the key differences between 24Fans and Once Upon A Time fans. Giles was a fantastic guest and we look forward to speaking with him again on November 6! www.24Convention.com...

Need a reminder about the importance of a good story and of seeing yourself onscreen? It is not often that we speak to someone that has worked with EVERYBODY. I have only said that to one other guest, and Tzi Ma mentions her right at the end! Need proof? Besides his portrayal of the devastatingly charismatic Cheng on 24, Tzi has appeared in Kung Fu, The Farewell, Wu Assassins, Rush Hour, Treadston...

Guest co-host Keith Bunker ("Inside The Bunker" Podcast) invited the 3 esteemed authors of 24 and Star Trek Tie-In novels, Dayton Ward ("24: Trial By Fire"), James Swallow ("24: Deadline") and David Mack ("24: Rogue"), and we had a good time talking Jack Bauer, James Bond (the other JB) and just a hint of Star Trek! You may find they operate as one... hive mind. Each talks about the freedom they w...

Two lawyers walk into CTU... It was so good to have Steven as a guest, as he literally wrote the book on Jack Bauer (and Saul Goodman, Homer Simpson and so many others)! We talked about 24 as a full court brain exercise, the importance of characters and how Television can advance our public discourse! The best way to find Steven and order his books is at http://www.stevenkeslowitz.com Background n...

After Presidents Logan and Palmer, we welcome Gail Berman, Co-President of the Producers Guild of America! In fact, she has held the position of President on several occasions. Gail served from 2000 to 2005 as president of Entertainment for Fox Broadcasting Company, and shares some amazing stories from 24 and why there was only ever one person that could play Jack Bauer, in her eyes. At Fox, our g...

A lost (in a faulty hard drive) episode has been found! Join Mike, Seth and me as we spend time talking Season 3 of 24!

We have the honor of hosting a 24 POTUS on the podcast, namely D. B. Woodside, who may be the first 24 Superfan to be cast through the combination of persistence, sheer will and talent! Also from having the same manager as Reiko Aylesworth... D. B. was an engaging guest, sharing his transition from Buffy The Vampire Slayer to 24 to Lucifer, meeting the Real POTUS Barack Hussein Obama, and the brot...

Our conversation with Jon Cassar continues in Part 2! We discuss his book "24:| Behind The Scenes" and how it showcases the backbone of the show, his lifetime love of photography, the cardinal rule of television and he even brought a pair of surprise guests! This marks the first appearance of "Emmy" on the podcast. 24: Behind The Scenes https://www.amazon.com/24-Behind-Scenes-Jon-Cassar/dp/1933784...

Each of our previous guests said, "you've got to talk to Jon Cassar." They even told him, which we humbly appreciate! Jon graciously joined our little podcast that could, and made us laugh the most we have to date. As expected, he brought a wealth of behind the scenes stories, talked about the importance of keeping your word, turning down the 24 gig, which member of his family first became a 24Fan...

It was a delight to hang out with Sprague Grayden, and talk about Olivia Taylor and her... interesting decisions and the impact she had on Season 7 and beyond! And the fact that she has a 24 Baby. We also covered so many of her amazing projects, including Paranormal Activity, Low Winter Sun, living in Detroit, Dirty John. Her approach to acting is fascinating and grounded. Enjoy!

Starbuck. Amunet Black. Bo-Katan. Dana Walsh. And that's not including her roles on Another Life, Longmire and Workaholics! It is a thrill to speak with Katee Sackhoff about so many things. We discussed Amunet’s accent, finding her voice and assertiveness on the set, the importance of community in her life, pandemic wedding planning, the source of her love of scifi and cinema and who she always wa...
