    Is there a doctor on the spaceship? There is now. Nathan received an honorary doctorate – a moment he may never have reached without learning to deploy his alter ego during auditions. Also, both Alan and Nathan speak fluent Czech… thanks to dubbing.

    Once We Were Warrior Women with Gina Torres
    Nov 26 2025

    ​​Gina Torres is known for playing the formidable Jessica Pearson in Suits and its spinoff Pearson. But before she became a star, she attended New York's legendary Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School (remember Fame?). She also did stunt shows in rubber pants… because every career has its chapters. And once, Gina and Alan shared an on-screen kiss that Alan remembers in remarkable detail. He never misses a chance to tell that story. Nathan loves giving him a hard time about it.

    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.
