EP.285 - HIMESH PATEL

Adam waffles with British actor Himesh Patel about misunderstood films and albums, whether he's as worried as he looks, the weirdness of making a TV show about humanity struggling to begin again after an apocalyptic pandemic (Station 11) just as a real pandemic was taking hold, filming the Odyssey with Christopher Nolan, what Himesh believes happens when you die and how it relates to Star Trek. And cocktails.

Conversation recorded face-to-face in London on 6 July, 2026

Thanks to Diggory Waite and Claire Broughton at Hattrick and Séamus Murphy Mitchell for production support.
