Smash is possibly my favourite FNL character almost solely because of Gaius' performance. He is phenomenal.
Honestly Liz Mikel who played his mom was phenomel.
Gaius was so good on this show. When Smash gets into Texas A&M always makes me cry
One of my favorite episodes you guys have done. Seeing the three of you together and Gaius's megawatt smile gave me such a great start to my day!
First time listening to an interview with Gaius. And wow he is sooo DIFFERENT from his character Smash, the man is truly talented.
Wow-this was great. Thanks so much for doing this episode. LOVE the question regarding characters and their arc or where they could’ve gone. Hope to see more guest stars.
now you just need Timmy Riggs on
I remember Buddy watching a TV in a later FNL season and saying “Look at Smash playing for A&M”. Listening to you guys it sounds like you miss those halcyon days of doing the show together. Like the old saying “No one told us at the time but life wouldn’t get any better”. I met friends from college I graduated with over 35 years ago and for a few hours we were drinking beer and young again. Loved seeing this reunion. The electricity was palpable. Great show. Texas Forever! 🏈
I think this was the strongest episode yet. Great job guys keep it up!
I remember seeing Gaius on greys anatomy after seeing him on fnl. I always wanted his character to refer to him self as smash 😂
The smash baby lol 😂
What a great guest! Gaius has such an incredible charisma and Scott guided the podcast expertly. Could really feel the bond between you all.
Loved this episode! Smash was my favourite FNL character and I just loved his character arc. Can’t believe how different Gaius is from Smash - even the voice! Incredible actor.
I LOVED this episode!!!
We need 2-3 hours with the cast! The last episodes with Coach and Smash fighting thru the knee injury/recovery together and getting the scholarship were possibly my favorite on the entire show. Well done, Gaius!!
The Smash!! Such a phenomenal performer and person. He made Smash into an unforgettable character!
As someone who lives in Austin - I would love if you asked all these guest what their favorite Austin place is. I'm forever curious. Love this pod - I look forward to it every week
Best part of Thursdays! ❤
I graduated from Pitt in '05 which means Gaius and I were probably walking around Oakland at the same time and maybe even we passed each other on the street a time or two. Wild to think about!
Gaius you need to watch the show! You are awesome!!!
I'm thrilled and honored to be able to listen to these poddies, very saddened it's been a year since anything has been published, I truly hope you are all ok,,what are y'all up to,,I pray you are safe, also scared that Taylor Kitsch on TH-cam is associated to the Terminator List, and yeah, Chris Pratt is a snake,,like big snake 🐍
These r my favorite type of these shows:) please get Kyle on and ask him about tour of duty .that's and fnl are two of my favorite shows all time
Yes!!!!
Miss the show, but I think I miss the era more, so much better than today.
Scott was code switching hard in this one 😂
Gaius is a class act. What a thespian.
Smash is the best. Show took a hit when he went off the college.
Shouts to Pittsburgh & Carnegie Mellon.
I wonder what Saracen is drinking straight out of the handle😅
Smash has the most success of all his teammates on Friday Night Lights as being senior at Texas A&M, being a senior starting RB as the series ended. You know his mom would make him get his degree before going pro.
I want Scott's t-shirt collection
First! I'm here to watch Smash.
It would have been cool to follow smash to college but that would have been hard. I just know in my heart smash would have done great things, same as Jason. They weren’t gonna be high school football coaches. The riggins bros yes lol but they wouldn’t have stayed there.
He is so god damn handsome. Smash is the best!
Why does Zach always wear the same hoodie?
What’s the name of the actor they wanted instead of Zach?
Football guy.
The show took a hit when they lost Jason riggins smash Tyra and Matt I never watched after they split East Dillion into 2 schools it broke me
I love all celebs, but please be reminded you are just men to GOD, Im not a celeb, I am not a FAN, I AM FAM, I am Sarah, a special WOMAN OF GOD,,and a small business owner in Colorado,,thats it 🙃
Where are the Christian celebs,,for real,,,why can I not connect with anyone, I feel like I'm in an actual Matrix,,,it's really starting to scare me, where is Scott Porter and Taylor Kitsch, it's breaking my actual heart, I pray I get to see you in heaven! ❤ 🇮🇱🕊️👑🌞🌙
I don't want to be in an End Times Matrix alone, I need fellowship, I need Taylor Kitsch! Scotty P,,someone, just give me an SOS 🆘
