Don't miss it! :)

For me it'll be 3 PM and I'm not sure whether I'll be close to my computer at this time, but I'll do my best too to listen to it live!

The morning show ends at 9 am and they've already announced her interview to be just after 7 am. We'll see…

I can't wait to listen to this when I get home from work, thanks again, Ash, for getting up so early to rip this for us!!

All right, you crazy Stanatics… here's the interview!

Heh, isn't that an oxymoron?

Thanks for posting the interview.

Ashley, thanks a lot for posting the interview.

Thanks Ashley for posting that, great interview.

Ashley, thanks for posting. I went to school in Champaign, so it was very cool to hear them talk about the university and surrounding area. I don’t remember a Pekara’s bakery when I attended school there (yes they had running water back then), but it was very cool of Stana to share all that information. Hope the bakery gets alittle publicity out of it, as her comment was obviously spontaneous and not a planned plug.

Literally counting the hours before tonight’s episode. The next couple of episodes look too good to miss, and everyone in my house knows not to mess with the DVR scheduling.

Anyone heard word on Season 3?

I go almost directly past Pekara's when I go visit my nephew who lives 10 miles East of Champaign (in St Joseph).  They have WONDERFUL bread!!!  Sounds like her brother, Dushan, is a U of IL student likely working there part time.  Pekara is on North Neil Street.

and did she say they'll stop filming on April 4?

Nope, Stana said April 8th for the last day of filming second season of "Castle".

I think he's working there permanently :) Look what I've found and I think it's Dusan in the photo and really great article about him – http://www.smilepolitely.com/f…..ugh_in_cu/

that's good. it means season 2 will end in May

I've been there too! My sister and brother in law both got degrees at U of I, and I used to visit them a lot when they lived there…we could walk downtown from their house. The sandwiches are delicious!

Thank Goodness for the hosts!

Sooooo much better than the other radio interview! At least the dude knows her movie and TV career, not just "Stiletto"…haha. A BIG thank you to the hosts! AND they said her name right! Nicely done!

ashley: What would my life be without you and your techy-ness?? Haha.

They probably have a head start on pronouncing her name correctly.  There are a reasonable number of folks named "Katic" in the general Champaign-Urbana and Northern Illinois area (immigrant population).  I believe Stana's brothers–at least one of them–(approx the same age as my nephews) played sports in high school (as did my nephews) and had his name in the paper as a result.
