Frank's five years at Stargate took him to London to work on a high-profile Sky network series featuring Rob Lowe and Megan Mullally. It was a crash course in international production — and in how much bigger the world is than Malta.
Where this was said
At 49:40 · chapter starts 45:58
Before his radio career fully took off, Frank spent five formative years at Stargate — a company founded by an American in Pasadena that eventually set up operations in Malta to serve the European production market. The work was primarily visual effects, serving major US and European network productions. The highlight was a trip to London to work on a Sky network series that featured Rob Lowe, Megan Mullally, and a significant cast, giving Frank a firsthand look at how international television production actually worked at scale. The contrast with the Maltese industry was stark: resources, processes, professional expectations, and the sheer scale of ambition were operating on entirely different planes. It was an education in what was possible, and also a reminder of how much smaller Malta's media landscape really was.
Frank worked for five years at Stargate, a Malta-based visual effects and production company with roots in Pasadena, before his radio career took off.
Terry Farrugia is credited by Frank as the person who built and shaped Vibe FM's vision and personality-driven brand identity.
Terry Farrugia didn't just run a radio station — he built a personality-driven brand at a time when Maltese radio was content to be background noise. Frank Zammit says without Terry's vision, Vibe FM would never have been what it became.
The entire plot of the original Terminator film depends on the phone book. The Terminator looks up 'Sarah Connor,' finds multiple listings, and starts killing them one by one. No phone book, no movie.
Rico has already appeared in Den of Thieves, Den of Thieves 2, and Roadhouse alongside Jake Gyllenhaal and Dave Bautista. Jason Statham is developing a specific role for him. Working alongside elite actors taught Rico something about himself: the emotional suppression that makes him a great fighter is exactly the material that makes great acting — if he learns to stop pushing it away.
Trump joked that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. personally ran over, butchered, and delivered the evening's beef tenderloin to the dinner — then topped it with a punchline about RFK wanting to serve raccoon roadkill as an appetizer. The crowd's laughter at jokes targeting his own administration signaled a rare night of good-natured self-deprecation from Trump.
Jimmy Tatro is playing the nemesis-son to Will Ferrell's washed-up golfer in The Hawk, his fifth project with Ferrell and Ferrell's first lead TV series. The real highlight: Molly Shannon, playing his on-screen mother, drove off set on the last day with Chief Keef blasting from her subwoofers.
Alan Ritchson walked into a Thor audition with his sides still in his hand, half-assed it on a spotlight-lit stage before two silhouettes in a dark theater, and bombed so completely that the casting director broke protocol to call his team. The feedback? He had no craft. That one sentence sent him to acting school — and changed the trajectory of everything.
Alan Ritchson walked out of his Titans audition so sure he'd booked the lead that he called his wife and told her he was going to buy a Tesla. She said he hadn't booked it. He went and bought the car anyway. His instincts were right — he was offered the role — just not the one he wanted.
Reacher drew 56 million global viewers in a single week of Season 2. Alan Ritchson points out what makes it unusual: unlike ensemble shows, almost all of that visibility lands on one person. It's an anthology with a rotating cast built around a single titular character — and the scale of it is something even he calls unprecedented.
Motor City has no spoken dialogue. Every major leading man in Hollywood — Jake Gyllenhaal, Hugh Jackman, Gerard Butler, Adrian Brody — was attached at some point. It was greenlit nine times. The concept was simple: Greg Silverman wanted a film everyone in the world could watch with the exact same experience, regardless of language. Alan Ritchson read the script and called it a masterpiece.
Working with Arnold Schwarzenegger showed Alan Ritchson what 100% recognition looks like. People feel Schwarzenegger before they see him — like a meteor approaching. Alan's wife wants a strict no-photos policy around family. Arnold stops for everyone. The contrast was a master class in how gratitude should manifest when fame is inescapable.
