Episodes
  • Once We Got Farts in the Drapes | Episode 39
    Aug 5 2026
    Once, Alan set off on a camping trip he called The Quest for Freedom, chasing wide-open spaces and total independence from anything resembling a girlfriend. What he found instead involved a borrowed truck and a night that took kaleidoscopic turns. Nathan spent seasons of his childhood wishing for freedom from the Canadian winters, an impulse that turns out to run in the family. Long before him, his father made his own early bids for independence in Edmonton, including a very public verdict on a neighbor's Sunday turkey and a nickel dispute with his own aunt that ended badly for a wagon full of groceries.

  • Once We Were Lunk Alarmed with Louis Jensen | Episode 38
    Jul 29 2026
    Artist and creative catalyst, Louis Jensen, has been part of this show since before the first episode aired, just never in front of a microphone. Nathan makes the introduction, and Alan meets the man behind the name in the credits. Some people tell good stories because they know how to tell a story. Louis tells good stories because he's lived an unreasonable number of them. By the end, Nathan and Alan have new nicknames and a fresh reminder of why the most unlikely friendships are often the best ones. Follow Once We Were Spacemen wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Once We Used Dog Scissors | Episode 37
    Jul 22 2026
    Nathan got a pet psychic reading for his cat. The psychic said something that he, a committed skeptic, immediately dismissed. But maybe he was wrong to do that… Meanwhile, Alan needed a haircut while at a convention and solved the problem by asking the audience for a volunteer, mid panel, while still taking questions.

Two very funny actors in their 50s talking about life and the projects they've been involved as well talking to guest stars they have known. This podcast reminds me of many a buddy comedy. Outstanding.
