When Guests Love A Question Episodes

Hello everyone! My name is Chris, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

Season one was about catching a monster. Season two asks a deeper question… what if the person doing the killing believes they are right? This season, the world of Cross becomes more personal, more layered, and far more dangerous.

Today, I am joined by the cast and creator of Cross Season 2 to talk about moral gray areas, hidden backstories, and the deeper emotional stakes behind this story.

Hello everyone, my name is Chris, and welcome back to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

Our guest today played one of the most beloved and emotionally impactful characters in IT: Welcome to Derry. As Rich, he brought so much heart, humor, and bravery to the series. The kind of performance that sneaks up on you and then completely wrecks you when it matters most. His journey this season gave us some of the show’s most unforgettable moments, and it’s a performance that fans are still t...

Hello everyone, my name is Chris, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

My guest today is someone I’ve known in the industry for a long time. First as a fan, and eventually as a collaborator. She’s an actress who has spent most of her life performing, creating, and evolving both on and off screen.

After a five year chapter in Australia that reshaped her life, she’s returned to Manila to reconnect with a creative part of herself that never truly disappeared. Today, we’re t...

Hi everyone! My name is Chris, and welcome to Once and Always a Fanboy.

Every now and then, someone pops up on your feed doing something so unexpected that it makes you stop scrolling. For me, that moment was a reel of today’s guest, walking across the stage, graduating with a degree in Architecture… while being a full-time actress, singer, performer, and one of GMA’s brightest stars.

And that hit me hard, because I’ve always believed people are only limited by what they think they can achieve...

Hello everyone, my name is Chris, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

My guest today is from one of my favorite shows of 2025, IT Welcome to Derry. She plays a character who quietly becomes the emotional backbone of the series. What starts as a story about fitting in turns into something much darker, braver, and way more important to the IT mythology than anyone expected. And she sells every turn with a performance that feels honest and lived in.

Fangirls and fanboys, M...

Hello everyone, my name is Chris and welcome to Season 2 of Once and Always a Fanboy!

Joining us today is a rising star you all need to know. She’s the actress who brought Tina Turnbow to life in Stranger Things Season 5, a character who’s been hinted at in the past but only in name… until now. And yes, she’s the reason we all laughed, gasped, and couldn’t stop talking about that unforgettable viral scene. What a perfect way to start the year. Fangirls and fanboys, Caroline Elle Abrams!

Hello everyone, and welcome to a new episode of Once and Always a Fanboy!

A few weeks ago, I had the honor and pleasure to interview the cast and showrunner of Prime Video's Fallout Season 2 in Tokyo, Japan! Thank you so much to Prime Video for this amazing opportunity!

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

This week, I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing the cast of Avatar: Fire and Ash in Los Angeles a few weeks ago. Huge thanks to 20th Century Studios for the opportunity.

If you know me, you know that one of these actors was instrumental in shaping my love for movies—and of course, I’m talking about the icon herself, Sigourney Weaver.

Fangirls and fanboys, please welcome Sigourney Weaver, Jack Champion, Bailey B...

Hello everyone, my name is Chris, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

Our guest today has quickly become one of the most exciting young actors to watch. In IT: Welcome to Derry, she brings so much heart, fear, courage, and emotion to her character that you’d think she’s been acting for decades.
As someone who loves the IT franchise, I’ve been really looking forward to having her on the show, and I cannot wait to hear her stories.

Fangirls and fanboys… Clara Stack!

Hello everyone, my name is Chris, and welcome to a new episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.

I love talking and geeking out with Hollywood actors. That’s been a huge part of my journey. But musicians feel like home for me. There’s something about talking to them that taps right back into my fanboy DNA. And today’s guest? Her songs, from Action to Bida, reminded me just how powerful OPM storytelling still is.

She’s an artist who’s growing, evolving, and carving out her own lane one fearless rele...

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy!

Every now and then, you come across an artist whose music doesn’t just sound good, it feels real. Someone who doesn’t hide behind production or image, but turns every song into a window into where they are in life. That’s what I love about today’s guest. His sound bends genres, but the emotion always hits dead center.

We were actually supposed to do this interview over Zoom a few weeks back, but because the universe so...

Hello everyone, my name is Chris and welcome to Once and Always a Fanboy. Today’s guest is more than a childhood hero — he’s someone I’ve had the honor of creating with. We’ve filmed fan projects together, traveled across the world for conventions in places like Jakarta, Manila, and Los Angeles, and I’ve seen firsthand how much heart he brings to his fans. The original Black Ranger, actor, martial artist, dancer, and now music artist — Fangirls and fanboys, Walter Jones aka Tre Emanuel!

Hello everyone, my name is Chris and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.
When she was first announced as the new Yellow Ranger for Power Rangers Beast Morphers at Power Morphicon, I actually ran into her by total coincidence because we were staying on the same floor at the hotel! And just a few days later, I got to interview her for the first time for my channel.
Then fast forward a bit — during Beast Morphers season two, Hasbro reached out and I got to chat with her again, t...

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy!
You know, when I first saw this band on my feed, I was struck by how different they sounded from a lot of Gen Z bands out there. What really hooked me was the dynamic between their voices — that unique blend of male and female tones that just clicks.
It took a while for our schedules to finally line up, but it did. So now, me and everyone here at The Pod Network are so thrilled to have them with us today.

Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy with me your host Chris Cantada Force.

Today we’re joined by a voice that’s been powerfully turning heads around the world. Born in Norway, she blends Nordic cool with Manila warmth, crafting songs that feel like late-night confessions wrapped in soulful pop and R&B. She’s fresh off a sold-out show in New York, about to light up the stage here in Manila, and her new single I’m Still is already earning praise for its calm-...

Hello everyone! This is a throwback to my very first interview ever, back in 2016 for Captain America Civil War. And what a better way to experience my first than by getting roasted by The Falcon and The Winter Soldier!

Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy with me your host Chris Cantada Force. You might’ve first heard her viral hit "Fall in Love Alone." Or maybe, like me, you saw her guesting on Scary Pockets and thought, "Who is this singer?!"
With her debut album Blessing in Disguise, this person is in her new era. One that’s honest, raw, and entirely her. And honestly? I think it’s her best yet.
So today, we’re talking songwriting, instruments, and her brand new album. F...

Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy with me your host Chris Cantada Force. If you've been following me you know how much I've been obsessed with the new Disney+ show called Paradise. The season finale just aired and I'm so glad that everyone now gets to see this great show in its entirety. And the fact that they were renewed for a second season says it all. I've been a fan of this person for such a long time, and I'm so ecstatic I get to fanboy over this sho...

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy. To call this episode iconic would be an understatement. I wouldn’t be the musician I am now without the influence of this person. He has created incredible music with his bands like Pupil, The Mongols, The Oktaves, and of course Eraserheads. He just released his second solo album called Method Adaptor last year, and their brand new documentary titled Combo on the Run will be in theaters this March. And of course, he is a...

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy! I loved the Daredevil series and when the show was cancelled, I was one of the many people who felt heartbroken and disappointed. But because of Disney+, the series resurrected and thankfully with most of the past actors coming back reprising their roles. And I got to speak with one of those actors. But not just any actor. Someone whose work I've admired for a very long time. And one of her movies actually had a big impa...

Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy with me your host Chris Cantada Force.
You know her voice the moment you hear it... gritty, emotional, and impossible to forget. She first wowed the country on Tawag ng Tanghalan and now she’s dropping her first full album, Lab Songs ng mga Tanga, a project that shows just how much she owns her sound. I’m excited to dig into the stories, the risks, and the writing sessions behind the music.
