    Family Guy to Star Trek and Beyond
    Apr 7 2026
    Seth MacFarlane joins Dropping Names for a wildly funny, sharp and unexpectedly heartfelt conversation about a career that spans animation, orchestras, sci-fi, and hosting the Oscars… from Family Guy and The Orville to singing at the Hollywood Bowl, working with John Williams, and growing up a Star Trek fan who somehow became a starship captain. They talk about early jobs, breaking into television, building an animated empire, Broadway dreams, directing actors who once inspired him, and what it really feels like walking into a room full of Star Trek legends trying not to grin like a kid.

    Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk join Dropping Names for a wildly funny, nostalgic and surprisingly heartfelt conversation about decades in the business… from Firefly and Star Trek conventions to Saving Private Ryan, Disney villains, Shakespeare with Patrick Stewart, and the night Nathan may or may not have saved the crew in Dallas. They talk about early acting jobs, being fired as waiters, soap opera survival, audition heartbreak, working with Spielberg, Tom Hanks, James Gunn, and what it really feels like standing across from fans who’ve waited hours just for a moment.
