Happy Birthday, Tim!

It’s that time again – sending out the happiest of birthday wishes to our forever favorite! The past year has been filled with so many great things, as well as adjusting to being an empty nester and getting back to that cross-country travel again. (Scroll down for more!)

Tim, we hope that the upcoming year is filled with even more joy and beautiful things! Much love and gratitude to you from all of us! ❤️🎉

To send your birthday wishes to Tim, comment on this post or leave them on our Instagram post (Tim’s most active on IG). We’ll make sure he sees them!

Tim in “Oppenheimer”

For those who didn’t see this on Instagram, we got some great news from Tim – he’ll be appearing in Christopher Nolan’s highly-anticipated upcoming film, Oppenheimer!

He’ll be portraying Senator John Pastore, and it’s a very small role, but this is still a really big movie with a star-studded cast.

The film will follow the life of physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who was the director of the Los Alamos Laboratory during the Manhattan Project, and his role as “the father of the atomic bomb.” Cillian Murphy is starring as Oppenheimer, and the cast also includes Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr, Rami Malek, and Matt Damon. It’s set for a July 2023 release, so stay tuned…

8 Years of Team DeKay!

It’s true – today marks 8 years since Aragarna and I officially launched the Team DeKay website!

Back then, Tim didn’t have any active fan sites, so we were mainly looking to create a place where fellow fans could go to find out about his latest projects and get photos and videos. Ara already had a fan forum, and I had the Instagram account and a web hosting account. We decided to join forces and make a fan site…and we’re still going strong, 8 years later!

We’ve come a long way since then, and we obviously couldn’t have done it without all of you! I know some of you have been around since the very beginning, while others have just joined very recently. We appreciate all of you so very much and are looking forward to bringing you more fun stuff in the upcoming year and beyond!

The event is described as a literary journey through the holidays and into the new year… A trip through the New Yorker’s archive has us eager to feature some funny, irreverent, deeply moving, all wonderfully written, holiday and New Year’s stories. This great cast of actors will make your hearts sing!

Talents participating to this event include Liam Cunningham (Game of Thrones, The Wind that Shakes the Barley), Jason George (Station 19, Sunset Beach), Cassidy Freeman (LongmireThe Righteous Gemstones), Tim DeKay (White Collar, Peaceful Warrior) and Marianne Jean Baptiste (Spy Game, Without a Trace).

For more information on how to get tickets and watch the stream visit the Word Theatre’s website.

Rest in Peace, Willie Garson

Just echoing what I said on Instagram…

Sometimes, there just aren’t enough words. Rest easy, WG. With your wit, brilliance, kindness, and generosity, you have touched the hearts of so many in this world, including countless folks who’ve never even had the pleasure of knowing you personally. Our thoughts are with Nathen and with Willie’s family, both close and extended. Be at peace, friend. Cancer sucks.

Happy Birthday Jamis! (plus podcasts!)

First off, Happy 22nd Birthday, Jamis!! In spite of the pandemic, this guy has had so much going on over the past year. He spent the fall semester doing remote classes for his sophomore year at Yale, he’s been working behind the scenes at the Chris Rose Rotation podcast, he’s been training (baseball) in Florida and Texas, he played for the Westhampton Aviators in the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League, and oh yeah, he released a great single, “Ghosts,” as Mohw.

Here’s this year’s birthday collage on Instagram – and scroll down to listen to the new single, as well as for info about recent podcast appearances from Tim and Jamis!

And now for the podcasts – Tim has appeared on two podcasts recently (in addition to the Pack Podcast), one with Jamis and one on his own. First, Tim appeared with brothers Paul Francis (the host) and Ted Sullivan on The Best Minutes Podcast back in late June – this was on our Twitter account, but I’m posting the link here for those who aren’t on Twitter. And then more recently, Tim and Jamis were talking baseball with Denny Barrett on the Swing Hard Podcast. You should be able to listen to both of these at the provided links without signing up for any accounts, or if you prefer, just check where you normally listen to podcasts!

Enjoy – and again, Happy Birthday, Jamis! 💙

Tim on The Pack Podcast – Sonia, the Warrior Goddess

Great news – Tim is back for another episode of The Pack Podcast, just in time for Aragarna’s birthday (Happy Birthday, Ara 🎉)! This one is called “Sonia, the Warrior Goddess” and also features Jon Tenney and Julie Brown.

As before, you can listen on The Pack Podcast website – let us know what you thought of it in the comments below!

The Pack started out performing original one-act comedies by Emmy-nominated and Drama Desk Award Winner Eugene Pack live in theaters, but COVID-19 forced them to move their shows to an online podcast format, and they returned with spoken-word radio plays, with the cast participating and recording from their homes. The podcast benefits The Actors Fund – check this link for ways to help.

Happy Birthday, Tim!

Sending out big birthday wishes to Tim, who turns 58 today!!

It’s been a crazy year for sure – last year’s birthday took place during quarantine, and a year later, most places around the world are still under some kind of restrictions/quarantine. There is an end in sight, though, and we’re hoping Tim will be able to have a wonderful birthday this year. (And since it’s on Saturday, he should just celebrate all weekend long, right?) Here’s hoping, also, that the upcoming year will be full of great things for Tim and his family!

Leave your birthday wishes for Tim in the comments or on IG and we’ll make sure he gets them! 💗

7 Years of Team DeKay!

Wow! Can you believe it’s been 7 years since we officially launched Team DeKay? It’s hard to wrap my mind around the fact that it’s been so long!

We actually started posting on the site way back in early May 2014, but we waited until June 1 to officially launch so that we had some content on the site, and because June is Tim’s birth month!

The site came about after Aragarna and I (Daclaren) were discussing the fact that Tim had no active fansites at the time, no place for fans to find up-to-date information about his current and future projects. We knew he, and our fellow TDK fans, deserved better and decided to create a site where folks could find info about Tim’s latest projects, as well as photos, videos, and more. Ara already had the Tim DeKay Forum message board, and I had an Instagram account for fans of Tim – we combined the two and expanded to become Team DeKay!

Now, here we are, seven years later! The site has grown to become Tim’s official fan site, we have active accounts on all major social media platforms, we paired with Tim in back 2018 (at his request!) to help him raise money for breast cancer research through the Real Men Wear Pink campaign, we’ve earned the support of the whole wonderful DeKay family, and we’re still continuing with that original mission of bringing you the latest about Tim’s projects, appearances, etc.

And we couldn’t have done any of this without all of you! Thank you so, so much to all of those who’ve joined us over the past 7 years – those who’ve been around since the beginning, and those who are just discovering us. We really, truly appreciate everyone’s support, we love your enthusiasm, and we’re incredibly grateful for those who send in tips and/or photos, post comments, like and share our posts on social media, and so much more.

Much love to all of you, and much love and respect to the entire DeKay family. Here’s to many more years supporting such a sweet and talented actor and his family. 🎉💖
