• Natalie Dormer Judecast
  “Jude chats with The Tudors star, sultry smarty-pants Natalie Dormer about her brilliant portrayal of Anne Boleyn, getting paid to roll around with Jonathan Rhys Meyers, the brutal competition that comes with being on the A-list, and why she just might be willing to star in your indie film.” Listen here.

Mark Critch of This Hour Has 22 Minutes and Jonas “Heironymous Slade” Chernick of The Border were the witty and entertaining guests on the final (for now) TV, eh? show on Blogtalkradio.

Mark Critch talks about stalking the trail of Sarah Palin in Alaska, impersonating Danny Williams in China, and teaching Beijing schoolchildren useful English phrases like “Stephen Harper lied to the people of Newfoundland and Labrador.”

Having just completed a half marathon and demonstrating excellent social skills, Jonas Chernick proves he’s not really like his character (as long as you don’t ask his friends and family, apparently). He talks about what’s next on The Border and what’s coming up for Slade, his forays into writing and theatre, learning about current events from The Border scripts, and why he never wants to write one.

Pick when you want to do it, how you want to do it – change the time, move it off Blogtalkradio, do it as a regular podcast, a vidcast, whatever. The payment? Glory! The people behind TV, eh? (aka Diane) would still promote the heck out of it here, there, and everywhere. Contact me for more details if you’re interested.
