And then he was 177 00:07:43,144 --> 00:07:44,664 Speaker 1: the chosen one of Tom Cruise. 178 00:07:44,944 --> 00:07:46,904 Speaker 2: He went to the Tom Cruise School of Acting. 179 00:07:46,744 --> 00:07:49,304 Speaker 1: Which we've learned sounds very prestigious, like it's going to 180 00:07:49,344 --> 00:07:51,184 Speaker 1: be in an academy or in like in a bunker somewhere. 181 00:07:51,224 --> 00:07:52,984 Speaker 1: It's actually in Tom Cruise's house and you just go 182 00:07:53,064 --> 00:07:53,824 Speaker 1: and watch all his movies. 183 00:07:53,824 --> 00:07:55,824 Speaker 2: It's in Tom Cruise's house, but Tom Cruise is not there. 184 00:07:55,904 --> 00:07:58,624 Speaker 1: Yeah, Tom Cruise is too busy. But then Glenn had 185 00:07:58,664 --> 00:08:00,504 Speaker 1: to go to all of Tom Cruise's premiers and stuff 186 00:08:00,504 --> 00:08:01,384 Speaker 1: and had popcorn with him. 187 00:08:01,384 --> 00:08:05,344 Speaker 3: Remember Tom Cruise, he loves popcorn so much more than us, 188 00:08:05,784 --> 00:08:07,744 Speaker 3: and we really love popcorn. 189 00:08:08,024 --> 00:08:11,864 Speaker 1: Do you think that Glenn was like a rebellious child 190 00:08:12,264 --> 00:08:14,544 Speaker 1: picking this TV show? What's called it in Chad Powers? 191 00:08:14,624 --> 00:08:17,224 Speaker 1: Chad Powers so non descript. Do you think that Glenn 192 00:08:17,304 --> 00:08:18,704 Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna make my own decisions because now 193 00:08:18,744 --> 00:08:20,744 Speaker 1: I've graduated from the Tom Cruise school of acting and 194 00:08:20,744 --> 00:08:24,424 Speaker 1: I'm ready to get out there. And he chose Chad Powers. 195 00:08:24,584 --> 00:08:26,464 Speaker 1: And then he sat down with Tom Cruise and Tom 196 00:08:26,464 --> 00:08:28,304 Speaker 1: Cruise is too busy, so he's on a video call 197 00:08:28,544 --> 00:08:30,264 Speaker 1: and he shows it to Tom and Tom is like, 198 00:08:30,304 --> 00:08:32,544 Speaker 1: I'm so disappointed in you. Yeah, this is not what 199 00:08:32,624 --> 00:08:35,144 Speaker 1: I taught you. I think Tom Cruise won't even allow 200 00:08:35,264 --> 00:08:38,704 Speaker 1: himself to die in a movie, get properly hurt in 201 00:08:38,744 --> 00:08:40,864 Speaker 1: a movie.

But I guess we just 373 00:15:42,664 --> 00:15:44,664 Speaker 1: got really in depth in the hour that we were together, 374 00:15:44,744 --> 00:15:46,664 Speaker 1: so she talked about getting the role of Cat on 375 00:15:46,664 --> 00:15:48,824 Speaker 1: The Bold Tie, which if anyone hasn't watched that show, 376 00:15:49,264 --> 00:15:51,784 Speaker 1: it's one of my favorites. It's such a good comfort watch. 377 00:15:51,824 --> 00:15:52,744 Speaker 2: It is the best show. 378 00:15:52,904 --> 00:15:55,944 Speaker 1: It stars Katie Stevens and Megan Fahey before she blew 379 00:15:56,024 --> 00:15:57,864 Speaker 1: up in the White Lotus and everything she's doing. 380 00:15:57,944 --> 00:16:01,104 Speaker 3: I actually rewatched The Bold Type recently. It all looks 381 00:16:01,184 --> 00:16:01,824 Speaker 3: so young. 382 00:16:01,864 --> 00:16:03,224 Speaker 1: They were the little baby faces. 383 00:16:03,304 --> 00:16:05,944 Speaker 3: I forgot how young we all were when we watched it. 384 00:16:05,984 --> 00:16:08,224 Speaker 3: And also it was around the time where I think 385 00:16:08,264 --> 00:16:10,184 Speaker 3: I was only a year in at Mum and Me, 386 00:16:10,824 --> 00:16:13,984 Speaker 3: and it was the first piece of television where every 387 00:16:14,024 --> 00:16:16,344 Speaker 3: single one of us who worked in that office was 388 00:16:16,424 --> 00:16:16,904 Speaker 3: watching it. 389 00:16:17,064 --> 00:16:18,944 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah. It was like every time a new 390 00:16:18,944 --> 00:16:20,904 Speaker 1: episode The Ball Type dropped, it was like an event. 391 00:16:21,104 --> 00:16:22,584 Speaker 1: It was an event in the Mirror office. 392 00:16:22,624 --> 00:16:23,944 Speaker 2: It was like kind of about us. 393 00:16:23,984 --> 00:16:26,464 Speaker 1: And when we moved to our last new office, everyone 394 00:16:26,504 --> 00:16:27,544 Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, we're going to be much 395 00:16:27,544 --> 00:16:29,344 Speaker 1: more like The Bold Type because this has a proper lobby. 396 00:16:29,384 --> 00:16:31,624 Speaker 1: And when we moved to this office, everyone's like, we're 397 00:16:31,624 --> 00:16:35,984 Speaker 1: going to be even more like And when Asha walked in, 398 00:16:36,064 --> 00:16:37,864 Speaker 1: she was like, Yeah, I'm getting that kind of that 399 00:16:38,024 --> 00:16:39,544 Speaker 1: energy from you guys. And I was like, oh, we're 400 00:16:39,544 --> 00:16:39,944 Speaker 1: a bad. 401 00:16:40,024 --> 00:16:41,344 Speaker 2: I was like, are we the Bold Type? 402 00:16:41,384 --> 00:16:44,584 Speaker 1: Asia, She's like, I guess you ought to be, but yes. 403 00:16:44,664 --> 00:16:47,064 Speaker 1: It's based on a real life story of Joanna Coles, 404 00:16:47,104 --> 00:16:50,064 Speaker 1: who's a former Cosmo editor, and it tells the story 405 00:16:50,104 --> 00:16:52,824 Speaker 1: the Bold Type of three young women working at a 406 00:16:52,824 --> 00:16:56,504 Speaker 1: fictional magazine called Scarlet. So you've got Jane who's the writer, 407 00:16:56,664 --> 00:16:59,184 Speaker 1: and then Ahd plays Cat, who's the social media goal, 408 00:16:59,504 --> 00:17:02,144 Speaker 1: and then Sutton plays the fashion gal. And it's about 409 00:17:02,184 --> 00:17:04,624 Speaker 1: all of their lives and so like their professional lives 410 00:17:04,624 --> 00:17:06,944 Speaker 1: and their love lives, but mostly about their friendship, which 411 00:17:06,944 --> 00:17:09,624 Speaker 1: I love. Yeah, it's so good and it's so funny 412 00:17:09,664 --> 00:17:12,064 Speaker 1: because in the no interview we were talking about and 413 00:17:12,104 --> 00:17:14,944 Speaker 1: Asia said like that, Megan Fahey used to say that 414 00:17:14,944 --> 00:17:17,464 Speaker 1: The Bold Type is pretty much Sesame Street for adults. 415 00:17:17,824 --> 00:17:18,224 Speaker 2: Oh my god. 416 00:17:18,224 --> 00:17:20,664 Speaker 1: That's like, it's so fun to watch, but you always 417 00:17:20,704 --> 00:17:23,704 Speaker 1: learn a lesson after every episode. It was so true. 418 00:17:23,784 --> 00:17:26,664 Speaker 3: And also the fact that you see in the show 419 00:17:26,664 --> 00:17:30,064 Speaker 3: The Bold Type like they all became best friends through work, 420 00:17:30,544 --> 00:17:32,784 Speaker 3: and I feel like you rarely see that on movies. 421 00:17:32,824 --> 00:17:36,184 Speaker 3: And TVs, like you always see these lifelong friendships of 422 00:17:36,184 --> 00:17:38,704 Speaker 3: women who went to school together or women who went 423 00:17:38,704 --> 00:17:41,264 Speaker 3: to college together. And this was the first time I 424 00:17:41,344 --> 00:17:44,264 Speaker 3: saw friendships that were formed at work. And that was 425 00:17:44,264 --> 00:17:45,944 Speaker 3: such a revelation for me because I was like, oh 426 00:17:45,944 --> 00:17:48,624 Speaker 3: my god, they've only been best friends for like two years. 427 00:17:48,864 --> 00:17:51,384 Speaker 1: And what we know to be like statistically correct, is 428 00:17:51,384 --> 00:17:55,664 Speaker 1: that most adults, particularly women, make their adult friendships at work, 429 00:17:55,904 --> 00:17:57,704 Speaker 1: Like where else are you going to meet people? Really, 430 00:17:57,984 --> 00:17:59,824 Speaker 1: And so it was really interesting to watch these women 431 00:17:59,864 --> 00:18:02,504 Speaker 1: who it's like their colleagues became their family, which I 432 00:18:02,504 --> 00:18:05,624 Speaker 1: don't know, it's something I've experienced, something I know you've experienced. 433 00:18:06,064 --> 00:18:09,344 Speaker 3: Was literally literally held my roommate at the time, Lucy 434 00:18:09,384 --> 00:18:10,824 Speaker 3: Neville's was a word. 435 00:18:10,904 --> 00:18:12,984 Speaker 2: I was like, it's true, it happens, won't matter word. 436 00:18:13,384 --> 00:18:16,064 Speaker 1: I was like, this is us, it's us. Anyway, it's 437 00:18:16,064 --> 00:18:17,624 Speaker 1: such such a good show. So anyway, I was asking 438 00:18:17,704 --> 00:18:20,464 Speaker 1: Asia about getting that role, and she said she was 439 00:18:20,504 --> 00:18:23,064 Speaker 1: initially quite nervous to play Cat on the Bold Type 440 00:18:23,264 --> 00:18:26,384 Speaker 1: because a big part of Cat's character is that she 441 00:18:26,624 --> 00:18:28,664 Speaker 1: is a queer woman, and as she discovers that in 442 00:18:28,664 --> 00:18:31,464 Speaker 1: the show, she becomes a very proud and loud queer woman, 443 00:18:31,784 --> 00:18:34,104 Speaker 1: and she becomes a real advocate and that's a huge 444 00:18:34,144 --> 00:18:37,544 Speaker 1: part of her storyline throughout The Bold Type. And Asha 445 00:18:37,584 --> 00:18:39,664 Speaker 1: d was saying something she hadn't really talked about much 446 00:18:39,664 --> 00:18:42,064 Speaker 1: before is that at the time, she knew she was queer, 447 00:18:42,064 --> 00:18:44,624 Speaker 1: but she was very much in the closet, and she 448 00:18:44,704 --> 00:18:47,584 Speaker 1: was very nervous about coming out and she sometimes felt, 449 00:18:47,664 --> 00:18:49,704 Speaker 1: she said, it was very hard to play on screen 450 00:18:49,744 --> 00:18:51,944 Speaker 1: the thing you want that she wanted to be a 451 00:18:52,064 --> 00:18:55,664 Speaker 1: very out, proud queer woman, but she was quite nervous 452 00:18:55,664 --> 00:18:58,344 Speaker 1: about that behind the scenes, and so she kept that in. 453 00:18:58,824 --> 00:19:01,384 Speaker 1: And she said that sans because the show became such 454 00:19:01,424 --> 00:19:04,144 Speaker 1: a huge hit, became syndicated across the world. She said 455 00:19:04,144 --> 00:19:05,984 Speaker 1: that she would be walking through the streets and people 456 00:19:06,024 --> 00:19:07,624 Speaker 1: would come up to her and hug her and say, 457 00:19:08,064 --> 00:19:10,944 Speaker 1: Kat helped me come out. Cat helped me like realized 458 00:19:10,984 --> 00:19:12,904 Speaker 1: I was queer. Cat did all these things, and she's like, 459 00:19:12,984 --> 00:19:16,024 Speaker 1: she loved that, but she's also like, I can't do that. 460 00:19:16,504 --> 00:19:18,424 Speaker 1: So when she did come out, and she said, it 461 00:19:18,424 --> 00:19:20,184 Speaker 1: was like a long process of coming out and telling 462 00:19:20,224 --> 00:19:23,104 Speaker 1: different people and sometimes it went well and sometimes it didn't. 463 00:19:23,144 --> 00:19:25,064 Speaker 1: But she said that she did find like a little 464 00:19:25,064 --> 00:19:27,504 Speaker 1: bit of strength in the character of Cat and playing 465 00:19:27,544 --> 00:19:29,264 Speaker 1: the thing that she wanted to be. And I thought 466 00:19:29,264 --> 00:19:30,144 Speaker 1: that was so beautiful. 467 00:19:30,184 --> 00:19:33,064 Speaker 3: That's so beautiful, And it's so interesting how it can 468 00:19:33,104 --> 00:19:36,584 Speaker 3: go both ways, because I remember kind of similar but 469 00:19:36,624 --> 00:19:39,704 Speaker 3: not exactly the same. Obviously, when Renee Rapp was doing 470 00:19:39,704 --> 00:19:42,584 Speaker 3: sex fives on College Girls, she had to leave that 471 00:19:42,624 --> 00:19:46,144 Speaker 3: show because of the identity Cristis it gave her. And 472 00:19:46,264 --> 00:19:48,704 Speaker 3: it's really interesting that you can play these roles where 473 00:19:48,704 --> 00:19:51,064 Speaker 3: you become so connected to your character that can also 474 00:19:51,104 --> 00:19:53,624 Speaker 3: become your undoing and like it can show you that 475 00:19:53,704 --> 00:19:56,224 Speaker 3: you either want to keep doing it because that character 476 00:19:56,264 --> 00:19:58,544 Speaker 3: gives you strength, or it does a complete opposite where 477 00:19:58,544 --> 00:20:00,864 Speaker 3: you have to leave and remove yourself exactly. 478 00:20:00,904 --> 00:20:02,424 Speaker 1: And that's the power of these kind of TV shows. 479 00:20:02,424 --> 00:20:04,024 Speaker 1: And I hope that some people think go a bit naff, 480 00:20:04,064 --> 00:20:06,024 Speaker 1: like all the ball type's just a bit silly. And 481 00:20:06,064 --> 00:20:07,704 Speaker 1: I said it to Asha, I was like, I get 482 00:20:07,744 --> 00:20:11,224 Speaker 1: really defensive when a lot of critics, and particular especially 483 00:20:11,264 --> 00:20:13,144 Speaker 1: a lot of like older male critics, because they're still 484 00:20:13,144 --> 00:20:15,304 Speaker 1: the ones who have the jobs at like the bigger publications. 485 00:20:15,544 --> 00:20:17,184 Speaker 1: We're just like, oh, it's such a silly little show. 486 00:20:17,344 --> 00:20:20,224 Speaker 2: It's so frothy for like teenage girls. 487 00:20:20,344 --> 00:20:22,184 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I was saying, like I always find it 488 00:20:22,224 --> 00:20:25,424 Speaker 1: so irritating when shows like this. It's like, yes, they're 489 00:20:25,464 --> 00:20:28,664 Speaker 1: not like these intense hard dramas, but does it mean 490 00:20:28,664 --> 00:20:31,264 Speaker 1: they're not a quality show? Because if this is a 491 00:20:31,264 --> 00:20:33,664 Speaker 1: show about three young women being raped and murdered, we'd 492 00:20:33,664 --> 00:20:37,304 Speaker 1: call it prestige TV. Because it's about three young women 493 00:20:37,344 --> 00:20:39,784 Speaker 1: going to work and like living their lives and still 494 00:20:39,824 --> 00:20:42,584 Speaker 1: having really intense situations to go through. It's seen as 495 00:20:42,624 --> 00:20:44,504 Speaker 1: froth Yeah, And I was like, god for being a 496 00:20:44,544 --> 00:20:46,224 Speaker 1: woman just goes to work and has a friend and 497 00:20:46,344 --> 00:20:47,984 Speaker 1: is not being raped in a park and her body's 498 00:20:47,984 --> 00:20:51,144 Speaker 1: being found. Like we've got enough of that TV. Let's 499 00:20:51,184 --> 00:20:52,824 Speaker 1: have this other side of it.
