Great interview David. Hopefully, during the exploration of Atlantis they'll find an Ancient skate park. BTW, I like the added sound effects at the beginning and end of the interview. Nice touch.

Excellent interview David. One of the best ones GW has done. Very good questions. Joe was very talkative and gave interesting, in-depth answers. He’s definitely a must interview again in the future if possible. Again, great work David. Enjoyed reading it. I’ll have to go back and listen to it later.

Glad they didn't go with Bob.

[Kliggins]

Thanks David. That was a wonderful interview with Joe. Definitely brightened up my lunch hour.

[David]

Merry Christmas, everyone! This one's our little gift to our loyal readers. Thank YOU for making us who we are today. There's so much more planned for next year

Rocket, glad you noticed. After we had a break in the audios I decided the wormhole open/close and musical score handles are going to be the motif for 2005. Each of the handles should correspond with the interviewee from now on (unless I get hugely bogged down). i.e. if we ever get to interview Patrick Currie, I'll insert the Replicators' theme - definitely one of my favorite pieces of music from the franchise.

GREAT interview. Thanks David. Joe sounds like he's becoming more and more comfortable with the role and with the show and I can't wait to see where they take his character in season 2.

Really - he should get a skateboard moment in Atlantis. RDA got to ride the bike in the halls of the SGC so it's only fair.

And I kind of like "Bob". Maybe Brad will let Joe name the next one.

Just read the interview and it was great.

Execellent interview David. Just finished listening to it. Great stuff.


It will be interesting to see everything discussed especially if we get to see Joe using his skateboard. "Bob"! I think that could have worked too! lol

I can't wait to find out more about season two and everything they'll be doing. I look very forward to seeing and hearing more.

Thanks so much, David! Great interview. Early Christmas present.

Great interview David, thanks!

I quite like the sound of Bob...

[Anubis]

It's a shame that they didn't capture two really.



Spoilers, The Siege Part 1 and 2

Spoiler:

In the fight against Atlantis, the team find and capture a Wraith and Sheppard nicknames him "Bob".

So TPTB and Joe both get their ways.

[Atlantis1]

Thank you for the great interview. I loved getting to listen to it.

Happy Holidays, David and have fun!!

Joe and I shared some interesting issues that week we recorded the interview - approx. 3 weeks ago, a little less. Both of us had family in the hospital at the time - he might've even been IN the New York hospital when we talked. My uncle died the next night, but I believe his situation faired better. So we were both wishing each other's family well. He actually extended his sympathy to my Mom, who was very touched.

[Easter Lily]

Lovely interview, David... you sounded very natural throughout..

Joe sounds like a thoughtful, judicious person...

I enjoyed it very much especially the stuff about his four year old.

[David]

His children were an aspect I had never heard him really discuss before, and we were moved that he was willing to talk about them with us. That's a personal thing, and rightfully so!
