Edward Olmos on the importance of Battlestar Galactica and So Say We All-speech | The Sackhoff Show

Edward James Olmos is not just an acting legend who's played in everything from Miami Vice to Mayans M.C. In my Battlestar Galactica family he's basically my dad, and I couldn't be happier to have him on the show. Edward talks about New York gang culture in the 40s and 50s, the impact and importance of Battlestar, and the story behind his epic So Say We All-speech. 00:00 INTRO 01:38 Eddie's Early Life and Career 03:59 Growing Up in East LA 09:33 Learning Discipline Through Baseball 14:22 Cultural and Religious Upbringing 18:20 Family and Early Influences 44:22 Bodhi's Unique Reading Ability 46:31 Personal Struggles with Dyslexia 47:31 Acting Techniques and Training 56:02 Battlestar Galactica Memories 01:26:14 Youth Cinema Project 01:35:21 21st Century Teaching Methods 01:39:55 Reflecting on Acting and Career -------------- 01:39:55 HINDSIGHT 01:44:21 Method Acting and Character Dynamics 01:56:09 Impact of 9/11 on Battlestar Galactica 02:01:54 Fan Questions and Comments Mail Sack Song by Nicolas @producer_sniffles ------------------------- Listen to us on Audio!
