laura roslin – Lady Bam Podcast

So Say We All! Lady Bam Podcast traveled to the Saenger Theatre in Pensacola, Florida to take part in an epic Battlestar Galactica reunion as part of Pensacon 2019, and we’re thrilled to be able to share the full panel with our listeners for the first time ever as a podcast!

President Roslin and the Lady Bam herself, Mary McDonnell, led a special cast reunion panel with Michael Hogan (Saul Tigh), James Callis (Gaius Baltar), Michael Trucco (Sam Anders), Tricia Helfer (Six), Tahmoh Penikett (Helo) and Leah Cairns (Racetrack).

Taking place on the eve of the 10 year anniversary of the end of the series, the panel reminded us just how special this show was, and what an extraordinary group of people it brought together to bring it to life. Discussing character arcs, reminiscing and debating the idea of a revival (spoiler alert: the cast is ready, and even has an idea!), this is a BSG panel unlike anything you might have heard before. They say that all this has happened before – but it only happened this first time in Pensacola!

It started, as it often seems to these days, with a tweet:

And when you’ve been the President of the Twelve Colonies, and an invitation like that is sent into the universe, what else can you do but respond? Lady Bam Podcast hit the road, and traveled to Atlanta to meet with the one and only Stacey Abrams. Mary and Stacey’s mutual respect and admiration for each other’s work set the stage for a lively and wide-ranging discussion on politics, what her experience in the gubernatorial election taught her about her passions to effect change for her constituents, as well as the influence that pop culture has played in her life as she’s drawn strength from Woman Presidents, Starship Captains and Police Commanders to inform and inspire her own work as she looks to her political future. Listen now as Leader Abrams and President Roslin’s summit takes place!
