The videos are all now hidden for me on YouTube.  Does anyone know if this is because I am located in Canada?

How does Soapy only have two guests from BTG?

Probably because it’s based in LA and they want the guests to be in studio as it’s recorded. Sheila Ducksworth and Karla Mosley still have some roots in LA.

Good point. All the interviews dropping through September were taped in June or July (at least before July 10th).
as mentioned here:

Spoiler

July 10, 2025, Michael Fairman interviewed a bunch of Emmy nominees
in a live stream that lasted three hours and 26 minutes.

Greg Rikaart comes on at 57:19.

Before discussing his Emmy nomination, they discuss the Soapy podcast.

Rikaart:  We launched this week, and it was a really big success, and it's been a lot of fun. We did 13 episodes.  Well, you know, it's fun talking about . . .

Fairman: Now you know what it's like to do interviews.

Rikaart:  Well, the learning curve was hard and fast. You realize that what you do is hard work. The amount of work we have to do leading up to an episode surprised me. 

Fairman:  And you shot them all -- the first 13 -- in probably limited amount, a tight amount of time. 

Rikaart: We did. We shot three shows a day for three days; and then our last day was four episodes which was -- that was a humdinger, that was a lot of work.  Because they're not. . .  they're edited down to about an hour, but some of them have gone *way* longer.

Karla Mosley had been commuting to California; but she posted on her IG a while back that she was in process of moving with her partner and children to Atlanta so that she could be more available for BTG.   It's possible this was taped just before she moved.

Edit: I think she moved in June but I don't know the date she moved nor the date the interviews were recorded.

Oh, ok. I thought it was a strangely missed promotional opportunity for such a new show.

Tamara Tunie was originally slotted to take part when the show was first announced. It looks like there was a scheduling conflict of some sort. Otherwise, there would have been three people.

I’ve yet to sit through an entire episode of this. I find these two so obnoxious together as hosts.

I actually don’t mind Greg, and can’t stand Rebecca. Which isn’t how I thought it would be going into it. He at least can discuss his own characters and shows. She seems like a professional that could care less about the genre or the stories, does her job and goes home. And that’s totally fine! Just not the right fit for hosting a show about the genre.

I feel exactly the same.

Same. Plus she’s stuck on 2000’s AMC. Which is fine, but still…
