Speaker 2: It was awesome. Thanks.

18
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: And the film is clever.

19
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 2: It's so good. It's really really good.

20
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 1: And I think the other thing is too.

21
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 4: When you talk about Pixar and how they're sensitive towards teenagers,

22
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 4: you can tell in the detail that's in the film

23
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 4: that they have made sure they've ticked off everything appropriately.

24
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're geniuses over there things very seriously. They have

25
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: these big, fun, funny films, but underneath all the vegetables,

26
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 2: they do their work they're really really interest and they

27
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,119
Speaker 2: just create these worlds and a way to talk about

28
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 2: things that feels very creative and new.

29
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 3: I was just saying in the car on the way here. Though,

30
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 3: films like this they do make parenting hard. On a

31
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 3: morning like I have had where my daughter didn't want

32
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 3: to go to school and what I would.

33
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: Normally, you know, alter emotions.

34
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know, I was. I was one of

35
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 3: the emotions trapped in the jar. But because because no

36
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: I was, I was not joy and because of films

37
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 3: like this and this is great for my daughter?

38
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: Is that hard?

39
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: You know?

40
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 3: Tough love and just go to school and let's not

41
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 3: talk about this just isn't an option anymore.

42
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: I know, I wish.

43
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm happy about.

44
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 2: I love what they do in the second film is

45
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,559
Speaker 2: they take those primary emotions, the one that we're getting

46
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: to know, and they bottle them up and these new

47
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 2: ones come in that confuse everyone. They're really complicated, they're tricky,

48
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: they're they're hard to pin down, and you kind of

49
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 2: reminisce for the easier sad, happy, scared.

50
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 3: You know, you kind of have the primary colors of

51
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 3: emotions out there.

52
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, And you're right when I was watching the

53
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 4: film last night. You do go back and think about

54
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 4: when the puberty button was hit on your panel.

55
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: Board, and there's some dark years. Man. I was like,

56
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: I had pubes and gradeful really early. And did you have.

57
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: A film mustache?

58
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: I did. Dad taught me to shave. Mum taught me

59
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: to shave. Everybody went through it and I had to

60
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: work my whole body over.

61
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,519
Speaker 2: You went straight to work. You got a ninety five

62
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 2: when you were attend from.

63
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 1: A boy to a man.

64
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: But he's fine about all embarrassment.

65
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: Wasn't there hiding under a hoodie? Do you know what

66
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: I loved.

67
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 4: When you were talking about improv And I've been tippright

68
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 4: citizens for gade yes and I loved it. But I

69
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 4: loved also that you could relate it to your real

70
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 4: life and your day to day where your reaction.

71
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: Is yes and yeah. I thought that was a grid angle.

72
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 1: Can you explain that?

73
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,119
Speaker 2: Sure, there's this tenant in improv that you you can

74
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 2: say yes to things and it'll move the action forward.

75
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: So if you want, you can stop what you're doing,

76
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: you can stop somebody, you can put a halt to

77
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: where you're going. But if you say yes and agree

78
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,080
Speaker 2: you might get somewhere together. So that bigger idea I

79
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: think can apply to life. Why not say yes to

80
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 2: some things or at the very least keep an open

81
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 2: mind as to what someone is suggesting. That has definitely

82
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: worked in my favor. You know, they just blindfolded me

83
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 2: and put me on a plane and I ended up

84
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: in Australia and yeah, and they were like, do you

85
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: want to do this interview? And I said yes, yes,

86
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: and yes and yes, and I don't have my passport

87
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 2: but that's fine.

88
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 4: But yeah, I thought that was a great positive way

89
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 4: looking at it, where a lot of the time I

90
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 4: think at the default is now, what will people think?

91
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's actually that's a big theme. And inside out

92
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 2: too is you go from being twelve to thirteen and

93
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: then you start realizing there are other people paying attention

94
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: to you, and you get in your own head. It's

95
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: that sad thing when you're dancing. Yeah, and then all

96
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 2: of a sudden you realize people are watching you dance.

97
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 2: It's a completely different thing. It doesn't go away for

98
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: a really long time, and then when you get older,

99
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 2: you don't care anymore. That's where I'm at.

100
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: Hopefully hopefully you do because I think as I don't.

101
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 3: Sometimes you can struggle to push.

102
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 2: That out of the way.

103
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what else I love to talking about

104
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 4: Saturday Night Live and the work you've done and how

105
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 4: you know you still go on to do things. There

106
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 4: are moments where you feel awkward. You have to embrace

107
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 4: the awkwardness, but also how at the time there were

108
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 4: comments like comedy is dead. Yes, you know, it's comedy over.

109
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 2: We were. I started SNL in two thousand and one

110
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 2: in New York City, a very tough time to be

111
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 2: doing live comedy. And you know, I think you know

112
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 2: SNL has been it's going to celebrate it's fiftieth year.

113
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: Wow.

114
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 2: So it's certainly had its many headlines of you know,

115
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 2: best cast ever left? Can we can we rebuild? Is

116
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: there anything left? And it's a good reminder that things

117
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 2: come in cycles and that people like to make headlines

118
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: like that over and over again. But yeah, I started

119
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 2: it when it was a really difficult time, and by

120
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: the end of my tenure there were we were back

121
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 2: doing tons of political sketches and the world felt a

122
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 2: little bit more.

123
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: Because you've got to be bribed that too.

124
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it is like an emergency room. You just

125
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 2: kind of you don't panic. You know there's nothing you want.

126
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 2: You don't want to go to an emergency room and

127
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 2: see a bunch of people yelling or running around yelling

128
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 2: saying what are we going to do? So everyone just

129
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 2: kind of disassociates and gets into a zone and then

130
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: wakes up from a dream ten years later. Everything's that

131
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: kind yeah, processes in Australia. Yes, you just wake up

132
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 2: in Australia and you live here. Now I know this,

133
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: this view is real. It's not fake.

134
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: You've got to get out there. That's one hundred percent realized.

135
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: Ferries are real. That open house is not. You were

136
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: there last night.

137
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,799
Speaker 2: Pretty and I just realized it looks like a giant ship,

138
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 2: which I never really took in sales gorge. I mean,

139
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 2: there may be there may be a moment where in

140
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: one of these interviews it just also starts to move.

141
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: That would be why you just missed it. And she's gone.

142
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 2: She's gone. What a wonderful time we had.
