Book by Zibby?
Dear Zibby, you have such a beautiful way with words. As a sensitive and deeply feeling person myself, I have been learning so much from you. The way you share your experience and work on mental health, self worth, creativity, spirituality and being true to yourself is so very inspiring. Did you ever think about writing a book about these topics? I would LOVE to read it 🤍 To both of you: thank you for this magical podcast!
Kona and other animals
My question for Zibby: how did sweet Kona become a part of your life? Have you always had a dog? And Alex: do you have a favorite animal? I love your big hearts for animals ❤️ Thank you for all of the beautiful conversations filled with deep feelings and so much laughter. Your stories and friendship truly inspire me!
Husbands Of Actresses (HOA)
How did you meet your husbands? Did you feel an instant connection or were you friends first? And any luck convincing the HOA to join for an episode? 😉 I would love to submit questions for your guys! Thank you for producing this authentic, fun and meaningful podcast. Kudos to both of you!
On-Screen Chemistry
Hi girls! I have a question for Alex—do you feel that, for a lead couple in a TV show to be more believable, successful, and loved by the audience, there needs to be some real-life sexual attraction? Do you feel that with Martin, or does Martin feel that with you? I love your podcast, keep it up!! can’t wait to see more videos soon!! P.S. I think it could be fun and interesting to see a bit of jealousy from Mel in season 7, since we already saw it from Jack with Cameron!
Fans gifts!
Hey, girls! Would you ever consider opening or sharing a PO box where fans could send you gifts? One time, Alex was talking about characters and Funkos on her stories, and some friends and I decided to order a Mel Funko. We’d love to send it as a birthday gift to her 🥺 but only if she feels comfortable, of course! Thank you for the attention and for keeping the AMA’s, we appreciate it so very much! Love you! ❤️
Feedback from others
Hey girls. I love your podcast. It’s always so fun to watch and has such a great vibe, thank you so much! Your acting in Virgin River is incredible, and I really love the show ❤️ My question for both of you: Has there ever been a moment when someone shared how your work impacted them in a way you didn’t expect? And how did that feel make you feel?
Life decisions
Hi Alex & Zibby , thank you so much for doing these AMA despite your hectic schedule ( and good luck with S7 filming 👏, so excited 😆) Fridays are not the same without our fav podcast , miss you , love you ❤️❤️. My question is can you think of one single decision which was life defining ? I’m originally from France but decided to spend 1 year studying in the Uk , and i ended up meeting my husband and spending the rest of my life in England working and raising a family. Sometimes I can’t help thinking what may have happened if I hadn’t made that decision, my life might be very different 🤷♀️ Can you think of a similar turning point or points in your life ?
A question for both of you: your dream role ?
Hi girls ! I’m so happy to know that season 7 of Virgin River is being prepared! I really hope it won’t be the last… each épisode brings us so much comfort. And the sense of community is so heartwarming, especially in today’s world…Thank you both and the whole team for this wonderful adventure! Here is my question to each of you: If you could create a tailor-made role for yourself, with no production constraints, what kind of character would you play? Je vous aime beaucoup ! (ILYVM) Olivia from southern France 🇫🇷 🥐 😘❤️

Laughing together, talking about everything: why not on stage?
Hi Alex & Zibby, Caroline from Toulouse (France) is back. I love how easily you laugh together and how naturally you discuss topics that touch women's lives, whether it's the menstrual cycle, perimenopause, skincare, or even sharing recipes, always with humor and authenticity. You openly talk about life's challenges, but you also celebrate those little everyday things we all love (drinking tea or coffee, watching a series, taking a bath, etc.). With such great chemistry and contagious humor, could you ever see yourselves performing together on stage as a duo? I adore you Alex & Zibby
Love and admiration and questions for A&Z
Hi Alex and Zibby! I just wanted to say thank you for doing these AMA sessions still. I like you both very much. From what you share of your friendship with us, it is so lovely to see. You two always seem to have so much fun together! Alex, I've been a dedicated fan for years and I admire who you are and everything you stand for very much. Alex, did you have a say in the wedding dress you wore as "Mel" in season 6? Or was it picked out for you. Zibby, when will we see Brie and Brady back together? Haha 😂
ADR and Weather
Hi ladies!! I’m so excited season 7 of VR has begun filming and I hope it’s going well so far. Two questions.. 1. You have discussed ADR on previous podcasts, but I was hoping you could go into a little more detail on what all goes into that. Do you have to do it often and are there typically particular scenarios that require it more than others? 2. Does the weather affect filming often, if ever? I know you have mentioned the weather is often times not the greatest in Vancouver, so if it’s raining and/or storming what do you do for filming scenes outdoors? Good luck on filming the rest of season 7, can’t wait to see it (hopefully another surprise end of the year drop 🤞🏻)!
Let’s talk about something sweet to light up our day.
Sending you love from Thailand ❤️🇹🇭 Hi Alex and Zibby, thanks for keeping the AMAs going! Even though I can’t understand all of your podcasts because English isn’t my first language, I really love them and love you both. For Alex: - What is the sweetest thing Martin has ever done for you that impressed you the most? - What is the sweetest thing Zibby has ever done for you that impressed you the most? For Zibby : - The same questions as Alex, but for (Alex, Marco and Ben)
Back on the River
You’re back in beautiful Vancouver for another season of Virgin River!! Can you believe it’s S7?!! When you received your 1st S7 script & did the 1st table read, what were some of your first thoughts/reactions about the new season; Shocked, excited, did your jaw drop?? One more very special one just for Alex 😜 Alex, Would you rather wear giant floppy clown shoes for a day or a bright red clown nose they people keep honking all day? Have a Fun filming season Girls!!!
Bloopers!
Hi! Thanks for doing another AMA, I really miss waking up on Friday mornings to a new episode of your podcast and hope there will be a season 2! I was wondering if there are a lot of bloopers and outtakes on Virgin River and if you think they would release a video of them? Which cast member breaks character the most? Thank you!

Cast Rapport
The whole cast seems to have such great chemistry with each other. How long does it take to develop that rapport and those relationships? I imagine every set and actor is different in how they work and communicate and it can be an adjustment. Now that you've all been together a while, what is it like to be able to do big group scenes with everyone?
Influencers
Hey Alex and Zibby, Thank you for continuing your amazing podcast, sharing your stories and letting us experience your warm friendship 🥰 Q. As you have such a massive following does giving advice ever feel like an emotional burden and does this make you feel slightly guarded or just tell it as it is?, Im sure all us subscribers appreciate that you are putting yourselves out there and love your honesty 😘. I have now rekindled my interest in both herbal teas and herbs so cheers for that. ps saying hi from Scotland and I like you both very much ❤️
What actually is that alcohol you drink?
Hi Alex and Zibby. I’ve always wondered what you are actually drinking when you are drinking “alcohol” on set. In S1 and S2 in particular - like the first night meeting in the bar, when you got back from the pot camp, and all those beers Jack and his Marine buddies drink in S2 - it looks like real beer when they crack open the bottle! Also at the wedding when everyone seemed to be drinking champagne. I’m assuming you’re not actually drinking alcohol during working hours! Ha ha. And I heard Martin say in a NZ podcast he doesn’t actually drink alcohol so I’m guessing it’s not really beer he’s drinking. Thanks so much for answering. And thanks for the wonderful podcast and AMAs. From a kiwi living in Oz.
Tattoos and health
Hello!!! First, super grateful for their last AMA, they are definitely unique, authentic and human. This question is for Alex, how many tattoos do you have? They all have a great meaning like Be Free? (I love tattoos with great meaning and they are something that I consider very personal, I have 3). Another question, how have you felt with your back now that you have resumed your work? Thank you from Venezuela...I admire you a lot!!!
