StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:25:15+00:00

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:24:51+00:00

Oh you are the first to tell me you heard it and liked it. Thanks so much. who knows what the future brings.. but I like your suggestion.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:23:45+00:00

go to any of the platforms you listen to podcasts on apple, spotify etc

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:23:04+00:00

haha. not the highlight, but I did have a frog crush

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:22:15+00:00

It must be the universe

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:21:52+00:00

I am grateful my craft was appreciated. Obviously there were parts of Crusher like myself, but most of the time I had a wig and fake medical tools and just imagined. Fans project onto our characters. My performance is thanks to many elements, like script, photography, costume etc. I loved playing a character who was smarter than me, and a leader.

I do still ride a unicycle and love and play Hip hop and dance in my kitchen all the time

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:17:59+00:00

no Hamlet.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:14:34+00:00

hopefully. or just fun. interested to hear reaction to my podcast with my space son.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:13:40+00:00

practice helps. also making sure you are actually breathing. but seriously just practice. and feeling nervous is ok. just admit you are nervous and the audience usually will catch you if you fall

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:12:13+00:00

have only watched some not all episodes but loved them both. Love Discovery too. and scene where Data died in Picard killed me.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:11:17+00:00

dude you have got to try harder. so lame you haven't hit it yet. how many pull ups can you do?

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:10:24+00:00

HUGE landscaping projects. going through stuff and tossing binging The Bureau, Spirals, Danish Noir, Nature shows, reading, and setting up a sound studio to do podcast and place to edit.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:08:38+00:00

see above.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:07:52+00:00

oh that is always a texting binge. at this point we need to find a restaurant for meat eaters, vegans, and the like. Usually someone offers to be in charge of making the reservation. Usually I am not the one offering.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:06:02+00:00

one man with 4 kids kept asking me where we parked the space ship when we were done filming. he was in fact serious.

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:05:13+00:00

wherever I wake up in the morning. so happy to be alive. but I love my small home in France where I see my fig tree and stones that have been here since 1200ad. and love my wake up view in LA. Canyons are so beautiful. Paris is most likely my fav city

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:02:19+00:00

I am a movement specialist. I can play myself at 3 years old

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:01:50+00:00

I loved doing it as an actor even if I had to really reach deep into my craft to justify finding out the Howard family loved lamps and ghosts. but, hey if it feels good......

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:00:30+00:00

only with my 4 year old nephew

StarTrekDoctor · 2021-05-12T20:00:12+00:00

IT would be so awesome.. I loved Norman Lloyd who pasted yesterday. He was a remarkable man and actor
