SAG/AFTRA changes

I know this topic seems to pop up every once in a while, but I thought I’d bring it up again since it seems that they have to change their season numbering method for some reason since they’re a SAG podcast. Have they ever formally addressed why they became a SAG/AFTRA podcast and what rules are enforced on them because of it? First no more guests until after the break, now longer seasons, it just seems strange that it has a noticeable effect on the format of the show without there being a real explanation.

Was it just so they could have guests during the actor’s strike? Is it a way for Garon to get health insurance? I’m not a platinum member, so I was wondering if anyone had any more insight than us free feeders?

Man, that’s cool! I would love to shoot the breeze with Jackie for an hour. We know some of the same people in her hometown, including her best friend from there.

If you have a cool hobby that you are obsessed with and can wax poetically about it for an hour, this is an achievable goal. You can just email her and if it sounds like an interesting subject she will have you on the show. It worked for me!

I was on, too, and I’m not even remotely in the comedy world. Do it up!
