Aaron Douglas Revisits Chief Tyrol and His Life During BSG

The Sackhoff Show

Hi everyone! We’ve got a special one for you this week. It’s Aaron Douglas! Aka Chief Galen Tyrol from Battlestar Galactica. Behind his gruff exterior, Aaron is an incredibly sensitive guy and a brilliant performer. We talk about how he booked Battlestar, how we both overcame imposter syndrome on set and how being part of the show changed his life. We also discuss his experience of losing his first wife to breast cancer at the end of the first season and how that impacted his performance. Outside of Battlestar, you may know him for his new role as Sid Sokolowski on Murder in a Small Town, as Gordon Rimmer in Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, or even from the many graphic novels he has written. It’s so cool to see how he has built his career over the years and I know you’ll enjoy this conversation! Speaking of fun conversation, be sure to stick around for the Hindsight— my producer Jeph and I discuss the episode, answer fan questions and talk about the new community we’re building over on Patreon.
