2nd anniversary
Question Lukas: You just mention there that this will be your second anniversary, when you look back, what podcast gave you?
Ryan: It gives me opportunity to share my love for the show with other people like me. I felt like at the time we started, MASH wasn’t as well represented on podcasting as it could be, but since then it change, I feel. There are podcast out there for many many TV series and many of the goes episode by episode which is great concept and there is podcast which did this for MASH. I was wanting more, I was wanting to hear more about the series, not just each episode, but more about kind of oral history of the show. My initial idea was to try out to make a podcast that I would want to listen to about MASH. I will never say that I’m expert, I do not have encyclopedic knowledge of the series. I watched the series many many years and many many times over and know lot of about it, but I don’t know everything. And I also wanted to learn more about my favorite show. Not only I could share my love and passion for the show, but I wanted to learn more about, to find out more about it. By having Jeff be a part of it, I never in million years dreamed Jeff would wanna to be part of this, when he made the offer to this with me – after you picked me up the floor.
All: laughs
Ryan continues: this was dream come true, because now all of the sudden this little idea is now something even bigger and its gonna have more appeal too, because people are gonna come because of Jeff association with the show. And because of that also, to have opportunity to talk to these people who played pivotal role in my life, and not just the actors, but to be able to talk to writers and talk to writer like Dan Wilcox. Dan along with Thad Mumford, his writing partner, wrote one of my all time favorite episodes and just having the opportunity to talk to him about and be able to tell him this particular episode meant so much to me. Things like these, I just never in million years thought I would be able to do, so its very special to me for that reason.
Jeff: I sort of feel the same way, I’ve been very moved by the responses that we get from people saying thing like: you made me laugh Jeff when you whenever came on the screen, you were not on the screen for very long but I knew you will make me laugh. For me and that goes back to the fat kid in school, who was trying to make people laugh so they will not beat him up. When I hear that, it’s real emotional joy to me, so those moments I hear from people that say those thing, and they can say them as often as they like, its ok with me…
All: laughs
Jeff continues: Hearing that has been a real reward to me doing this. Also it's fun, I really enjoy having fun and really enjoy doing things with people who I really like. Ryan and I have established way of doing this, that I think it's not only fun, but I think we like each other to some degree and that is a real fun for me as well.
Ryan: nods
Jeff continues: If I would doing this with somebody else, I may or may not have done it for 2 years or had as much fun, but I think it works and so having experience to be able to share this with Ryan, I know what it feel like to get behind the scene of something that you really thing is special, I’ve done it myself in different ways, so I'm very happy to be able to bring this to him as well as to all people who want to hear behind the scenes of MASH too. All those things are some kind of in the bag that really helped me enjoy it. I will keep doing it at least for another week.
All: laughs
Lukas: I hope you will keep doing this for more than a week.
Jeff: Well I will talk with my agent then.
Lukas: Please do
All: laughs
