  • In the newest Talking Strange paranormal pop culture show, journalist and host Aaron Sagers (Travel Channel’s Paranormal Caught on Camera) talks to Rhys Darby, the comedian known for Flight of the Conchords, What We Do In The Shadows, Jumanji - and his long-running paranormal podcast The Cryptid Factor.
    And he is also starring in the new comedy Our Flag Means Death, premiering on HBO Max March 3, produced and co-starring his mate Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok, What We Do In The Shadows). The 10-episode season is (very) loosely based on the true adventures of 18th century would-be Gentleman Pirate Stede Bonnet (Darby). After trading in a refined life to be a swashbuckler, he becomes captain of the pirate ship Revenge. Struggling to earn the respect of his potentially mutinous crew, Stede’s fortunes change after a fateful run-in with the infamous Captain Blackbeard, played by Waititi.
    And in the following talk, Rhys and Aaron discuss the pirate's life, as well as aliens, cryptids, and UFO disclosure.

    I love how happy Rhys seems to be anywhere, he just looks like he’s having a blast with whatever he does.

    Every interview where Rhys talks about this character he gets very personal. I guess that's his dramatic method? Finding all these personal connections to the character.

    Aaron: Is this like a self contained thing or could you continue on with this
    Rhys, knowing how it ends: How do I say that people are gonna go absolutely fucking insane if we don't get a season 2 without telling him that it ends on the worlds worst cliff hanger

    Oh my gosh, he knew it would be a hit (25:00 roughly). 😭 This was such a nice, long interview with Rhys. Thanks!

    I can't believe they didn't tease the fact that a cyptic being factors heavily in the plot and symbolic themes of OFMD - the Kraken!

      The Kraken wasn't in the first 5 episodes. It wasn't in the press pack.

    A Bob Ross board game on the shelf says a lot about a man. He doesn't take life too seriously, or he harbors a secret wish for a big afro, or both.
