  • Once We Were Low Huggers with Seth Green | Episode 11

  • Once We Did Home Improvements | Episode 10
    Jan 14 2026

    Once, Alan tried to help Nathan convert his chlorine pool to saltwater. It went about as well as you'd expect. The guys also reminisce on a hungover hike, debate TV reboots, and discuss why dry wiping is downright unacceptable… even Will Smith and Matt Damon agree. If you're looking to be educated, you're in the wrong place. But since you'll learn nothing, you're free to doom scroll after listening. Follow Once We Were Spacemen wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Once We Were Rookies with Melissa O'Neil | Episode 9
    Jan 7 2026
    Melissa O'Neil walked into her audition for The Rookie with an unconventional warm-up strategy. Before starting the scene, she... squatted. As in, she dropped down and did squats. Right there in the audition room. Nathan has been impressed ever since. In this delightful episode, Melissa and Nathan dive into Canadian accents, the timeless art of fart noises, the technicalities of acting, and the joy of working together for eight seasons of The Rookie.
