Episode notes

Director Jennifer Phang has helmed episodes of some major shows — THE BOYS, RIVERDALE, THE EXPANSE, RESIDENT ALIEN, THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT, and more. Her latest film is Disney’s DESCENDANTS: THE RISE OF RED. In this conversation, themes of humanity, mother/daughter relationships, and robots of all stripes abound in this episode, and no wonder, when Jennifer’s brought us the rich dual Grace Park roles of Boomer and Athena from beloved ’00s sci-fi series BATTLESTAR GALACTICA.

Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the upcoming Big Bad Film Fest, which celebrates independent stunt and action films.

About the show

On Feeling Seen, writer and general enthusiast Jordan Crucchiola invites filmmakers, writers, comedians, and artists to discuss the movie characters that made them “feel seen.” It’s about that instant when a person connects to a piece of art so deeply that they see themselves reflected in it. Every week Jordan gabs it up with a guest about those magical moments when they were watching a film and realized, “That’s me!” It’s an informative, funny, and comforting show about our intimate relationship with movies, the impact they have on our lives, and how they influence our art.
