    Sisterhood in Action

    The Sistas recorded this episode with the amazing Linda Park right after the 2024 U.S. elections. It’s a continuation of a deeper, more emotional sister talk we had before the show. We dive into our love for Hoshi Sato, what it was like growing up as an immigrant, and our unforgettable experiences on the Star Trek Cruise. Huge thanks to Linda for sharing her heart with us. We hope this conversation resonates with you as much as it did with us.

  • The BIG Sci-Fi Podcast Dave Barclay
    Feb 2 2025

    Legendary Puppeteer

    Dave Barclay got his first "big break" in the movie industry as a puppeteer when he was called up to help control the now legendary Yoda in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. He was also one of the people inside Jabba the Hutt in Return of the Jedi. Having worked in all sorts of films and television including Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, Fraggle Rock, The Muppet Christmas Carol, and much more, Dave has been at the cutting edge of animatronic puppetry since 1979. We had the great pleasure of visiting with Dave and hearing some fabulous stories of his time in Star Wars and other films and television. He's also releasing a book about his career that you will want to pick up as a result of listening to him share about his time in the film industry! This is a must not miss episode of the podcast!
