Meta Station Interviews Tree Adams!

She's been in the biz since she was nine, she's fluent in French, she knows how to swordfight, and she loves "Fight Club." She's also twelve years old. We sat down with the fantastically delightful Lola Flanery on Sunday, for a super fun interview which then got eaten by Skype Recorder (*shakes fist at ALIE*), so we gave it a second try on Wednesday and had even MORE fun. Join us as we plot a prank war against Sachin and Bob, discuss Warrior Cats and My Little Ponies, get the scoop on stunt training and Trigedasleng, hear what it's like to be the kid on set in a room full of grownups, and learn what Lola loves most about playing Madi. TL;DR - THIS KID IS THE BEST AND WE'RE ADOPTING HER NOW

The endlessly delightful Richard Harmon joins us on Meta Station this week to talk about growing up in a family of artists, the creative freedom of no-fucks-given auditioning, Murphy's flexible morality, the cathartic nature of portraying dark characters, and Murphy's relationships with Bellamy, Clarke, Emori, Abby and others going into season 5. ALIE gave it her best effort to shut down the entire interview via endless technical difficulties (which is why you'll hear Claire disappear altogether for a few minutes in the middle) but an evil A.I. is no match for the charm of a Harmon who once bought Claire and Erin shots of Jameson, and ultimately we prevailed. (Don't worry, the glitches have been edited out.)

Hello lovelies! We're back from hiatus, kind of! We were planning on returning the first week of August to dive back into our S1 recaps, but we just had to make an exception when given the opportunity to nerd out about music with "The 100" composer Tree Adams! Join us for a deep dive that goes from shippy flails (yes of course we asked about the Kabby theme and "I See You," we know what you guys want) to technical nerdery (there's a spreadsheet breaking down the specifics of the sound of all thirteen Grounder clans and Claire DESPERATELY wants to see it) to how Tree created a new sound of Becca's island to bring Raven's story to life and used music to take us on the evolving journey of Octavia's arc. Plus tune in for some hot scoop on his new project "Duskriders," another female-driven dystopic sci-fi adventure with Tree Adams music . . . only this time, he is his OWN Rothenberg because he wrote the graphic novel himself. We had a total blast, and Tree is the freakin' greatest. Go buy the S3 and S4 soundtracks, or check out our Spotify playlist of all the tracks he referenced in our interview here: https://tinyurl.com/treeadams

Since Jason had to miss his panel at Unity Days this year due to production conflicts, Erin and Claire decided it would be fun to open up Meta Station for a virtual fan Q&A...and Jason agreed! Over the course of our three-hour conversation (#ThatsSoMetaStation), we answer 15 fan questions about everything from what we can look forward to in season 5 to what Henry Ian Cusick is like BEHIND the camera, and everything in between--including TONS of awesome behind-the-scenes insights and tidbits!
