Hobo Radio Interview – Severance’s Sydney Cole Alexander

AUDIO VERSION:

God spoke to Moses through a burning bush. Zeus appeared to the Spartan queen Leda as a swan. But for Natalie Kalen on Severance, her gods — the Lumon Industries board — speak to her through a bluetooth earpiece.

We spoke to Sydney Cole Alexander, who plays Natalie on Severance, about the temptation to ask Ben Stiller to do “Blue Steel” when he’s directing her on set, Severance‘s many mysteries and that scene from season two, episode three where Natalie presented Seth Milchick with a gift from the board.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • Interstitial – “Vishnu Meets Funk” and “Ancient Ritual” by Lucas Perný & Miloslav Kollar
