Speaker 1: First of all, you don't know me.
Speaker 2: We all about that high school drama, Girl Drama, Girl,
Speaker 2: all about them.
Speaker 3: High school queens. We'll take you for a ride.
Speaker 1: And our comic girl sharing for the right teams.
Speaker 2: Drama, Queens of Girl Fashion, but your tough girl, you
Speaker 2: could sit with us Girl Drama, Queens Drama, Queens Drama,
Speaker 2: Queens Drama, Drahn the Queens Drama Queens.
Speaker 4: You guys, we have accomplished all of seasons one through, said.
Speaker 5: Good Lord, Like actually recorded the last episode. I I
Speaker 5: don't know.
Speaker 4: I didn't know how to feel like I like, it
Speaker 4: felt like I could finally take a deep breath, because
Speaker 4: because every single week it was, oh my god, I
Speaker 4: gotta tell that story, Oh my.
Speaker 5: God, we have to relive that.
Speaker 4: And there's obviously, like so much good stuff that was
Speaker 4: in it, but it I would have to kind of
Speaker 4: psych myself up every week. And this was the first
Speaker 4: week in years at this point that I've been like,
Speaker 4: I don't have to I don't have to divulge shit today,
Speaker 4: prepped today, I was like, I'm just gonna eat a
Speaker 4: smoothie bowl.
Speaker 5: I feel good today.
Speaker 3: I want to have breakfast and talk to my friends.
Speaker 5: Yeah, easy. Do you guys get psyched out when we
Speaker 5: have to like dick in.
Speaker 3: Sometimes you know, what I will say is strange. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it depends on the episode, especially if we don't remember
Speaker 3: what's coming. Yeah, but what definitely has felt weird these
Speaker 3: last few weeks I think is knowing, like for me,
Speaker 3: the thing that's been not hanging over my head, not
Speaker 3: like it's a bad thing, but like the elephant in
Speaker 3: the room is knowing that that scene you in the
Speaker 3: comment driving away, you know, Peyton, her husband, her baby.
Speaker 3: I was like, and then and then what, Like, it's
Speaker 3: such a weird feeling knowing we have more to do
Speaker 3: and that you literally rode off into the sunset. Like
Speaker 3: I was like, I don't know how I.
Speaker 5: Feel about this.
Speaker 3: It felt weird for us, then it feels weird now
Speaker 3: it's weird, man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, strange transition, right, really strange cilical weirdness.
Speaker 4: But what's so different this time around is that we
Speaker 4: have fan feedback this time around, and we I mean
Speaker 4: there were like message boards and stuff, but there was
Speaker 4: no real social media presence to get immediate reactions of
Speaker 4: you know what people were saying. I don't know that
Speaker 4: that would have been good for my health.
Speaker 1: Thank god there was when I say thank god there is,
Speaker 1: would not I don't think I would have fared very well.
Speaker 3: It's hard enough now and we're adults too, had to
Speaker 3: deal with the onslaught of social media when our prefrontal
Speaker 3: cortexes weren't even formed yet. I think I would have
Speaker 3: just been like and I'll see myself out.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I just remember like the just Jared headline coming
Speaker 4: Just Jared was so mean and they were like Jed
Speaker 4: Hillary think they're too good to return to Tree Hill.
Speaker 4: And you know, now everybody knows what was going on,
Speaker 4: but that one, that one like stood out as really like,
Speaker 4: kind of how do I defend myself against.
Speaker 5: That that's not true?
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's I think that's the hardest part of
Speaker 3: that world. No matter what, you kind of can't. And
Speaker 3: when you realize that sites like that literally make money
Speaker 3: by being mean, by whipping people up into a frenzy,
Speaker 3: by creating judgment like you're just one person, you can't
Speaker 3: possibly defend yourself on even ground with the whole Internet.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know that better than anybody.
Speaker 3: I mean, hello, I think it's why it feels so
Speaker 3: scary now. I think it's why like I've I've absolutely
Speaker 3: snapped on your behalf graves ladies, and like y'all have
Speaker 3: snapped on mine cause it's like, uh ah, you're not
Speaker 3: gonna do that gross thing, but like you also kind
Speaker 3: of can't stop it. There is another person from that
Speaker 3: era who's a blogger who was just being so gross
Speaker 3: that I finally blocked this blogger and now all they
Speaker 3: do is write the things about me, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: we are in our forties. How bored do you have
Speaker 3: to be?
Speaker 5: Also?
Speaker 3: Like, how sad that this is still what you're doing.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: The rest of us are busy.
Speaker 5: I'm not that busy. You're gonna tell me later time.
Speaker 3: Now, the internet is just gross.
Speaker 1: But who knows how that would have affected the storylines too,
Speaker 1: because you know how rabid our creator was about making
Speaker 1: sure that it was you know, he was dipping into
Speaker 1: our personal lives.
Speaker 4: He was.
Speaker 6: He was.
Speaker 5: So the fact that.
Speaker 3: He didn't know that you were like, I'm just gonna
Speaker 3: shake my head and not finish.
Speaker 1: That point, I stopping the sentence.
Speaker 5: We'll move on.
Speaker 1: Don't be mean and joy, But I'm so glad that
Speaker 1: we didn't have that, because you know, the storylines would
Speaker 1: have been changing so fast, they would have been just
Speaker 1: whatever the mood was of the audience of the whatever
Speaker 1: the loudest crowd was. And I'm glad that at least
Speaker 1: there was some sort of insular situation where everybody could
Speaker 1: we could still like, we could still write things in
Speaker 1: a room together without worrying about instant feedback.
Speaker 4: Well, it's a you know, blessing and a curse because
Speaker 4: this go around, being able to tell the truth and
Speaker 4: talk about all the behind the scene stuff, it has
Speaker 4: been cathartic, Like I feel understood in a way that
Speaker 4: took fifteen years to get here. I mean, my son's fourteen,
Speaker 4: so it's been fifteen years since I just kind of
Speaker 4: had to swallow this pill of disappearing. So this has
Speaker 4: been extraordinary. But we know from the fan base that
Speaker 4: this behind the scene stuff is so important to the
Speaker 4: fan base of One Day to just like the culture
Speaker 4: that's popped up around the show. You know that our
Speaker 4: fans can hear that stuff and still be in the
Speaker 4: game with us is great.
Speaker 3: Well, and when you talk about the fact that it's
Speaker 3: like it's a blessing and a curse, like the coolest
Speaker 3: blessing I think of social and of I mean this
Speaker 3: sort of tech change we've been through in general. A
Speaker 3: is that we get to do this podcast. We can
Speaker 3: be in three different states and see each other every
Speaker 3: week and have these conversations like we couldn't have done
Speaker 3: that fifteen years ago. The fact that we have been
Speaker 3: able to talk about the episodes but also learn from
Speaker 3: that instant feedback that it is actually the lessons, it's
Speaker 3: the behind the scenes stories, it's it's the context that
Speaker 3: has been the most sort of healing and empowering for
Speaker 3: all our friends at home too, Like we would have
Speaker 3: never known that in real time, So that that feels
Speaker 3: like a pretty big blessing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so valuable to be able to and packet
Speaker 1: now with everybody.
Speaker 4: Well, I think it has made our conventions and our
Speaker 4: get togethers so different and like rewarding in a way
Speaker 4: because we're all doing therapy together.
Speaker 5: To that point, we have reached the end of my behind.
Speaker 4: The scenes experience on the show, and so I really
Speaker 4: started to question what I brought to this, but also
Speaker 4: how we keep that storytelling alive and important. And so
Speaker 4: as we head into seasons seven through nine, it was
Speaker 4: important that we introduced a new queen who could take
Speaker 4: over for me. I'm still gonna pop in here and there,
Speaker 4: but who represented the same things that I've brought to
Speaker 4: this show. So we were looking for a queen who.
Speaker 5: Was kind of bitchy, like m maybe costs too much,
Speaker 5: someone we're smart, someone who doesn't like feelings.
Speaker 4: We were looking for a paytent two point zero. And
Speaker 4: as we looked at season seven through nine and our
Speaker 4: co stars, who you know, we love and we get
Speaker 4: to see all the time through conventions and other events, ladies,
Speaker 4: we arrived at a really good new addition to this show,
Speaker 4: don't you think so?
Speaker 1: Short?
Speaker 5: I can't wait.
Speaker 3: And the fact that we've been able to talk about
Speaker 3: these sort of three pillar characters who then became these
Speaker 3: you know, three pillar relationships. It feels very cool that
Speaker 3: you know, somebody who really does become a pillar, who
Speaker 3: I won't say filled your shoes, that's not possible, but
Speaker 3: who certainly walked in with a great pair of their
Speaker 3: own and figured out how to shine on our show.
Speaker 4: Like quite possibly one of my favorite humans on the planet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, stellar.
Speaker 4: All right, you guys, let's bring in the newest drama queen.
Speaker 5: We won't teach you anyone.
Speaker 7: Wait, oh honey, hold on, I always.
Speaker 6: Do you all not wear queen costumes when you record
Speaker 6: each episode?
Speaker 4: Oh? Oh, Robertley, how long have you.
Speaker 6: Play? Minutes? I had imagined this every time I listened
Speaker 6: to an episode. I always imagined you all putting on
Speaker 6: different queen costumes. And now that I think about it,
Speaker 6: that would require you to have over one hundred different
Speaker 6: queen costumes. That's unrealistic or.
Speaker 4: Just one that we were committed to, Like I would
Speaker 4: love to know evil Queen from Snow White.
Speaker 5: Which queens you thought we were.
Speaker 6: Great? Question? Diving right in? I gave this a little
Speaker 6: bit of thought. Hill, you are definitely some sort of
Speaker 6: queen of darkness, well, I mean queen of hearts for so,
Speaker 6: I feel like you very much are a big heart
Speaker 6: and for joy Joey. I only know about two queen's
Speaker 6: fictional and nonfictional. So any queen that was very cool
Speaker 6: and multi talented? You know, I would say, like Queen Elizabeth,
Speaker 6: But honestly, I don't know anything about her.
Speaker 5: She did stuff and she lived a really long time.
Speaker 6: How about this one, Queen Latifah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm down, Sign me up, you guys.
Speaker 4: Rob voice here, babe, we really did.
Speaker 5: You're gonna wear this for the whole episode?
Speaker 6: Right? Please? One thousand percent listen. There's actually a non
Speaker 6: zero chance I just keep this because, first of all,
Speaker 6: I tried this on yesterday and I have never worn
Speaker 6: a proper dress, and I have to say I'm loving
Speaker 6: the experience. My legs have never experienced freedom like this before.
Speaker 6: It amazing, truly it is. I like the way this
Speaker 6: hugs my arms. And before my son left this morning,
Speaker 6: he told me I looked beautiful, and I said, you
Speaker 6: know what, buddy, I feel beautiful. So maybe Dad Da
Speaker 6: keeps this outfit.
Speaker 3: This personifies exactly the point of what we're doing here,
Speaker 3: because as we introduced you, I'm going to bet a
Speaker 3: lot of people weren't pegging that it was going to
Speaker 3: be Rob. They probably didn't think it was going to
Speaker 3: be a dude. And what feels really really cool and
Speaker 3: special to us is you exemplify in such a beautiful
Speaker 3: way the like seamlessness of our One Tree Hill family,
Speaker 3: like you were one of our very best guests on tour,
Speaker 3: or the audience absolutely died and lived for you.
Speaker 5: You did two cities, Robert I did.
Speaker 6: I even asked if I could join the third and said,
Speaker 6: we're good down here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it was more that flight is sold out.
Speaker 3: But thank you so much for offering. We probably should
Speaker 3: have just put you in the back of the with us.
Speaker 6: Oh you know, I would have been there. That was
Speaker 6: so much fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we could have just given you a seat, just
Speaker 1: just a little seat and a mic in a peanut
Speaker 1: gallery like you. I would love to have heard your
Speaker 1: comments throughout the entire Yeah, maybe just a seat up
Speaker 1: in the corner with you little glasses on. You could
Speaker 1: have just like a little.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll be your Andy Richter. I'll hang out in
Speaker 6: the wings and you can just toss to me when
Speaker 6: you need a breather. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, who was what's his face? Is Letterman's guy?
Speaker 6: Paul Paul Shaeffer s.
Speaker 5: You're bigger than that.
Speaker 4: Now you are a queen an official, and I couldn't
Speaker 4: be happier. I will never forget I was pregnant with Gus.
Speaker 4: It was like the summer. Oh, it was like five
Speaker 4: months after I left.
Speaker 5: The show and Daniel called and.
Speaker 4: Was like, Hillary, I'm sitting here with a boy version
Speaker 4: of you, and she put us on the phone together,
Speaker 4: and so I didn't know what you looked like. I
Speaker 4: was just like, who the fuck is this guy that
Speaker 4: the Daniel's making me talk to.
Speaker 5: We talked on the phone for a while, Buckley, like
Speaker 5: it was so weird.
Speaker 4: But now you're one of the only humans I can
Speaker 4: talk to the phone. I guess I don't talk to
Speaker 4: animals on the phone. So yeah, you're one of the
Speaker 4: only like creatures I can talk to on the phone
Speaker 4: for any length of time because you're fast. You're fast,
Speaker 4: and you're funny, and you're kind of a dick, and
Speaker 4: I think that's fun and I think the show is
Speaker 4: going to benefit from all of those qualities.
Speaker 6: Well, thank you for saying that, and thank you for
Speaker 6: even inviting me to be a part of this, because,
Speaker 6: as I told you on tour, uh I was. I'm
Speaker 6: so happy. I root for all three of you individually
Speaker 6: so hard. Anyways, you're my friends, but I'm also a fan,
Speaker 6: and so anytime you do something, I'm behind it in it.
Speaker 6: And to watch this thing just take life the way
Speaker 6: it did and just blow up the way it did
Speaker 6: and should have. I was so excited for you so
Speaker 6: to get to come on that tour and be a
Speaker 6: part of it because I had a similar experience as
Speaker 6: Austin right where y'all had been doing it for a while,
Speaker 6: and I found myself going, the phone hasn't rung yet,
Speaker 6: that's okay, that's okay, And then I eventually realized, oh, yeah,
Speaker 6: you didn't come into season seven. There's absolutely no reason
Speaker 6: for you to be there. So getting to do the
Speaker 6: tour it was so cool. And when this first came up,
Speaker 6: when Hillary first texted me about it, I was in
Speaker 6: the car with my wife and I told her and
Speaker 6: she said, this is the perfect thing for you. And
Speaker 6: I thought, oh, because I'm just quick on my feet,
Speaker 6: but I can also be deep. And she was like, no,
Speaker 6: you are such a drama queen. The other day we
Speaker 6: were walking, we were walking with my son around some
Speaker 6: storefronts and I said, on ironically to myself but out loud, mmm,
Speaker 6: I smell a day spa And she said, write that down.
Speaker 6: You are perfect. You are such a perfect mail drama queen.
Speaker 6: This show it's a fit. It's good.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Next thing, you know, you're gonna get all bougie
Speaker 4: and start wearing like diamonds and like, are you gonna
Speaker 4: get your nails done? Are you a door ready?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, I have some questions. I mean, first of all,
Speaker 6: is there an apprenticeship. I feel like it's a bit
Speaker 6: presumptuous for me to come in and call myself a queen.
Speaker 5: Well that was the tour. We really we were vetting
Speaker 5: you at that point. Oh okay, Yeah. We play a
Speaker 5: long game here on drama.
Speaker 6: Yea.
Speaker 3: We we do things kind of like you know when
Speaker 3: the when like the president has to pick a VP
Speaker 3: and you find out they've been watching you for like
Speaker 3: a year and seeing how you behave in you know,
Speaker 3: big public spaces. But also like on the late night
Speaker 3: dinner runs.
Speaker 1: We did that with you.
Speaker 3: We kept a notes file. We had a point system.
Speaker 6: Which which one of you is going to have the
Speaker 6: white smoke coming out of their chimney to announce to
Speaker 6: the world of drama queen's fans that a new queen
Speaker 6: has been Yes, yes.
Speaker 4: No, I live in the Witch House. It's you know,
Speaker 4: it's Hillary black painted house. And surely there will be
Speaker 4: a bonfire at.
Speaker 1: Midnight passing the torch.
Speaker 5: We'll drink midnight Margarita is gonna be blast.
Speaker 3: You will come in this outfit obviously.
Speaker 5: Weekly will be in our druid cloaks.
Speaker 3: YEP.
Speaker 6: True story about this little backstory. I wanted this one
Speaker 6: from the jump. As soon as I knew we were
Speaker 6: doing this, I thought, oh, this is the bit I
Speaker 6: have to do. It's so obvious. And I order it,
Speaker 6: and yesterday I get an email no. Two days I
Speaker 6: get an email saying, hey, your shipment's delayed.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 6: And I have to say and it's tricky because it's
Speaker 6: not just it's a random guy costume. It's a woman's
Speaker 6: costume that I have to find in a plus size,
Speaker 6: and so I'm frantically looking. I'm at Jenny and I
Speaker 6: never get dated. It's we're on a date night and
Speaker 6: I'm at the table. She was like, well, you got
Speaker 6: to find a new costume, like I sure do. And
Speaker 6: the only one was was a Queen of Hearts one,
Speaker 6: and I said, it's it's a little it's just kind
Speaker 6: of just like a slutty outfit. It's not like I
Speaker 6: need this to I need to be a visually so
Speaker 6: clear immediately what it is. I ordered it anyways, because
Speaker 6: I thought I at least want to have an option.
Speaker 6: It was terrible, but yesterday involved me just trying on
Speaker 6: ple ema.
Speaker 4: Tell me that you just put on the sludy Queen
Speaker 4: of Hearts outfit for Jenny specifically.
Speaker 1: Please tell me you took photos of all of them.
Speaker 6: I tore it before I even got my second arm in,
Speaker 6: so it was very clear that exel wasn't gonna work.
Speaker 6: But I Jenny did sneak a video of me, Oh
Speaker 6: we need I came out of the bedroom in this
Speaker 6: that one.
Speaker 5: She's gonna send that to me. I'm texting her now.
Speaker 6: I'll post it to share with the world once this
Speaker 6: comes out, because that feels right. It does it does
Speaker 6: feel right.
Speaker 3: Can we make it like slow mo but to the
Speaker 3: rocky music and then you could go into a song
Speaker 3: from Wicked. I just I'm building a montage in my
Speaker 3: brain right now.
Speaker 6: Listen, I hear the director coming out in you and
Speaker 6: I love it. Run with it. Let's go, Rob.
Speaker 4: If you ever need a witch costume for Christmas this year,
Speaker 4: my manager gave me a costume from a very famous
Speaker 4: drag queen. So in my office right now, I have
Speaker 4: a huge hat, seven foot tall room and a men's
Speaker 4: grown up size witch dress with your name on it,
Speaker 4: so you can be a queen of darkness.
Speaker 6: No one does costumes better than a drag queen. Drag
Speaker 6: queens do the best costumes, so you could have found
Speaker 6: this somewhares.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is your name all over it. We need
Speaker 4: to talk about though, like the lore of One Tree Hill.
Speaker 4: Because you coming in in season seven, our show had
Speaker 4: been on the air, we didn't really know what people
Speaker 4: would say about us, but we'd run into people at
Speaker 4: the Teen Choice Awards and they'd be like, oh, Tree
Speaker 4: Hill kids, right, Like.
Speaker 5: What was word on the street for all.
Speaker 4: Of you beautiful people out there in Los Angeles about
Speaker 4: like the Tree Hill kids? Yeah?
Speaker 6: I Ei, there was no word that I was aware of.
Speaker 6: I knew of the show wet Yeah. No, Because you
Speaker 6: also have to keep it in when it's it's the
Speaker 6: sample sets a little skewed Because I am not one
Speaker 6: who really ran in a actor heavy tea gossip crowd. I
Speaker 6: always kind of tried to distance myself from that, so
Speaker 6: I'm not a good go to person for like what
Speaker 6: the buzz was on anything. I think I went to
Speaker 6: one club when I lived in LA for fifteen years.
Speaker 6: Like I was uncool when I got to LA, So
Speaker 6: I was never hipped to the tee. But when the
Speaker 6: audition came in, I just this hood is killing me.
Speaker 6: I know. By the way. You gotta love that. I thought,
Speaker 6: you know, it would be great for an audio Yeah,
Speaker 6: I know what plays great on an audio only platform?
Speaker 6: Rob visual gags.
Speaker 4: Hey we're on YouTube video now baby, Yeah, this is
Speaker 4: gonna live.
Speaker 6: I have a question though. I knew that, and I
Speaker 6: went and I saw and I opened one and it
Speaker 6: was audio only. Are there are there ones with video now?
Speaker 3: Yes, they're coming.
Speaker 5: What is it started in season three? Is that where
Speaker 5: video shows are?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 5: Yeah, we didn't.
Speaker 3: This is one of the things we learned in the
Speaker 3: feedback from our lovely friends at home. They were like, hey,
Speaker 3: we know there's videos somewhere because you guys are on
Speaker 3: Zoom and we were like, huh, we probably should have
Speaker 3: planned this better, probably should have been recording four K.
Speaker 3: So we began to get our act together, just not immediately,
Speaker 3: which you got to be honest.
Speaker 1: Tracks for us, yeah, oh yeah, we're just like excited
Speaker 1: to sit down and like meet on popcorn and talk
Speaker 1: to each other, and suddenly we're like, oh wait, people
Speaker 1: actually want to watch this too. We should whoops.
Speaker 6: I gotta say yes and no though, because you three
Speaker 6: are so savvy and smart that I was shocked because
Speaker 6: when it initially came out is right when this all
Speaker 6: started becoming a possibility. And then the Instagram account said
Speaker 6: we have a big announcement tomorrow, and I text Hillary
Speaker 6: and thought and said, hey, that's what's what's the big
Speaker 6: announcement because we barely started talking. Yeah, am I should
Speaker 6: it always be about me? And then I found out
Speaker 6: no was that was coming into YouTube and I had
Speaker 6: this moment going, huh wait, why has it not been
Speaker 6: on YouTube? Because I would watch the snippets on the
Speaker 6: Instagram and just assumed you obviously have a full length
Speaker 6: Why is it not? Because I love to be able
Speaker 6: to watch the people I'm listening to listen, I would
Speaker 6: have known you don't wear queen offits every day. Stopped
Speaker 6: me from coming dressed like you don't get invited to
Speaker 6: the big show and not wear your nicest outfit.
Speaker 4: You're knowing to me in a new tone, my friend, Yeah,
Speaker 4: more costume the better.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean you came from the world of business. You
Speaker 5: were like a math nerd.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, I studied. I got my degree in economics,
Speaker 6: and then I went I got hired right out of
Speaker 6: college and I went into economic litigation consulting, which is
Speaker 6: as boring as it.
Speaker 5: Sounds Yeah, can you wear costumes at that job? Yeah?
Speaker 6: No, I'm happy, and I'm okay to tell you I
Speaker 6: was not good at it. They hired this firm hired
Speaker 6: two people my year. They hired myself and I met
Speaker 6: the other candidate on our first day, and Ohana what's
Speaker 6: her name? And she was a double major from Caltech
Speaker 6: in mathematics and computer science underachiever. I genuinely had a
Speaker 6: moment of going, did they have a quota of Caucasian
Speaker 6: males that needed filling because I'm here, I'm not dumb,
Speaker 6: I'm this smart guy, but that level Caltech double major
Speaker 6: in those things. And then I saw the work that
Speaker 6: was happening. The one I could tell myself was because
Speaker 6: I kind of talked my way into the job a bit.
Speaker 6: I just said, it must be that she is the
Speaker 6: person who will crunch the analytics, and I am the
Speaker 6: person who will pitch it or tell it, share it
Speaker 6: with the.
Speaker 5: Client, because you're an actor.
Speaker 6: Yeah, because it didn't. It was on dated collar.
Speaker 1: The math wasn't mathing.
Speaker 6: The perfectionist in me, which you know I'm trying to
Speaker 6: let go of, is just dying that this thing. But
Speaker 6: I'm going to embrace it now. I'm more fixing it
Speaker 6: you guys.
Speaker 4: Rob has fixed this collar once every twenty seconds. I
Speaker 4: want a whole just Instagram reel of Rob collar corrections
Speaker 4: on this episode.
Speaker 1: That's what I want, Mension, the snow White Queen constantly
Speaker 1: correcting her caller throughout the entire I mean, we need
Speaker 1: to do a movie where you play the Queen in
Speaker 1: Snoway and you're just being comedy Rob. I would I
Speaker 1: would definitely buy tickets for.
Speaker 6: That, And wouldn't it be funny because that would be
Speaker 6: the best character choice because it might explain why she
Speaker 6: was so angry?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: But also, for those of you who haven't checked out
Speaker 6: the Drama Queen's YouTube channel, great opportunity now to go
Speaker 6: onto YouTube dot com Drama Queen's like and subscribe and
Speaker 6: tell us what you think of this adorable outfit while
Speaker 6: you're at it.
Speaker 3: We were made for them, made for this, honey.
Speaker 6: I have a quick question.
Speaker 4: I do.
Speaker 6: I'm not trying to derail your question who I'm with you,
Speaker 6: but I do have a quick question regarding you perks
Speaker 6: as a drama queen. First of all, can I add
Speaker 6: that to my Instagram bio? Now? Yep?
Speaker 5: Yes, definitely done, Hondo. It should actually be the first
Speaker 5: thing listed.
Speaker 6: It's going to be the only thing listed. Actor, not Dad,
Speaker 6: It's just going to be drama queen.
Speaker 4: That's how your son should refer to you when he
Speaker 4: introduces you.
Speaker 6: I'm no longer Dad, I am dadad drama queen or
Speaker 6: just Dad queen at at the DMV, can I can
Speaker 6: I cut in line.
Speaker 1: If you're wearing this costume?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Probably they would let you in this outfit.
Speaker 6: Can I vote more than once in elections?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 6: Do I get discounts at Jampa juice.
Speaker 5: I feel like you could talk your way into that.
Speaker 6: I'll figure out the perks as we go, guys. I
Speaker 6: was just curious.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what.
Speaker 5: You know what?
Speaker 3: This is actually a phenomenal opportunity for a Drama Queen's
Speaker 3: Dairy Queen crossover.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I'm into it.
Speaker 5: Why don't we have that endorsement?
Speaker 3: I don't know, but I'd like a blizzard perhaps perhaps
Speaker 3: a Blizzard machine.
Speaker 5: I did you know what robit?
Speaker 4: I want?
Speaker 5: Poor dogs y'all ever had?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, they're the best little softicer with that
Speaker 1: chocolate dip that hardens just that much corn dog.
Speaker 6: Yeah, getting back to what you were saying, Hillary, I
Speaker 6: was sort of in the dark. I just knew it
Speaker 6: was very popular, beautiful people, and that was it. And
Speaker 6: I got the audition for it. The character wasn't very
Speaker 6: fleshed out at the time. It was just Nathan's agent,
Speaker 6: and so I read I think for it was actually
Speaker 6: what I read for our boss and it went well.
Speaker 6: And then the callback was for our boss and his
Speaker 6: right hand man, and it was funny because the boss
Speaker 6: was hyping me up before it. Oh, he's great, and
Speaker 6: his right hand man was like, enough, let's just see
Speaker 6: it great. And I proceeded to just go up on
Speaker 6: a line about so there was to forget my line. Audience, Yeah,
Speaker 6: two lines into this thing, so on the heels of
Speaker 6: probably a sixty second, this kid's great. It was like,
Speaker 6: how are you doing? Line? And I just remember thinking,
Speaker 6: this is wow. I'm normally a lot better than this.
Speaker 5: Did you say that.
Speaker 6: I'm normally so good? You guys just hire me and
Speaker 6: then you'll see. But I got the job right, and
Speaker 6: I remember, Okay, I always want to do my homework.
Speaker 6: So I immediately went to best Buy. I got the
Speaker 6: DVDs of you Know, Seasons five and sixties, right, and
Speaker 6: I'll never forget. This is God's on this truth. It
Speaker 6: was Saturday night or whatever, and there was a UFC fight,
Speaker 6: so I had a bunch of my I'm in my hometown.
Speaker 6: I'm back at my parents' house. I have a bunch
Speaker 6: of my hometown buddies. Come over. We get pizza. We
Speaker 6: watched the UFC card. It ends kind of early, like
Speaker 6: what should we do? And I said, Hey, actually, guys,
Speaker 6: crazy idea. I just got this new job. I need
Speaker 6: to start doing homework. If you want, let's hang out
Speaker 6: and let's just watch this thing. Let's just see.
Speaker 5: Let's just brow out on some tree.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a bunch of you know, twenty eight year
Speaker 6: old dudes who just eat pizza and beer, you know.
Speaker 6: And so everyone starts, we start watching it, and it
Speaker 6: kind of already laughing. I'm like, oh, I'm gonna get
Speaker 6: roasted for this. I hope I like this, you know.
Speaker 6: And it starts and it's pretty people and it's drama,
Speaker 6: and then the first song came in and I thought, damn,
Speaker 6: this show has the show has really good music. And
Speaker 6: by like thirty minutes, because I'm also I'm very young guy,
Speaker 6: I'm trying to be cool. I don't know about the show, guys,
Speaker 6: I don't even know what it's going to be. By yeah,
Speaker 6: by about the thirty minute mark, my dad came in
Speaker 6: and was like, hey, do you guys want and I
Speaker 6: was like, shut up, Dad, Brook has a life or
Speaker 6: death decision right now. I was so invested. I immediately
Speaker 6: got it. I was like, Oh, this this is why
Speaker 6: the show, this is why the show is what it is.
Speaker 6: And and that was my interest in all my friends
Speaker 6: as well, in from the USC to drama queens.
Speaker 8: That thatat is always one of my favorite things, especially
Speaker 8: because to your point, we were all in our twenties, right,
Speaker 8: so that were our age.
Speaker 3: When we were on the show more I would say
Speaker 3: dudes than not. Would often start like, hey, I know
Speaker 3: you my girlfriend loves your show. Yeah, and then you know,
Speaker 3: we'd like bump into somebody I don't know out at
Speaker 3: a bar, and then I could always tell when those
Speaker 3: guys were on like their fourth beer, because it would
Speaker 3: be like, man, just like when Brooke Davis found out
Speaker 3: she could not get pregnant, that was like that was
Speaker 3: really heavy. It was like really really heavy, man, And
Speaker 3: I'd be like, your girlfriend loves this show. Huh interesting, Yeah, okay,
Speaker 3: that's my favorite thing.
Speaker 6: That happens a lot. Also because there's a lot of
Speaker 6: guys who are uncomfortable paying another guy, especially a strange male,
Speaker 6: a stranger, a compliment, strange. You get it either two ways.
Speaker 6: You get the hey, if my girlfriend wants a picture whatever,
Speaker 6: But then you sometimes get the guys who want to
Speaker 6: make it real clear that they that they just they're
Speaker 6: not even interesting, and I'll get the can I get
Speaker 6: a selfie? Sure? I don't even know who you are?
Speaker 6: My girlfriend just said yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: They have to say I don't know you, but my yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6: But it's it's as we're taking a photo, and I
Speaker 6: always just laugh going why did that need to be said?
Speaker 5: Why would you tell me that?
Speaker 3: For what?
Speaker 6: That's sort of like going, hey, can we get a picture?
Speaker 6: That shirt fits you? Weird? Why are you roasting me
Speaker 6: right before I'm doing this nice thing? We're having a moment,
Speaker 6: you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you came up to my table. Man, I'm just
Speaker 1: mine to my dog.
Speaker 5: So you absolutely do your homework.
Speaker 4: Rub This is something that you are consistent with, and
Speaker 4: so you did your homework leading up.
Speaker 5: Did you watch the seasons in order?
Speaker 4: Or did you just like jump into season five so
Speaker 4: you would know what happening right before you show up.
Speaker 6: Yes, I realized I didn't have the time. It wasn't
Speaker 6: realistic that I was, because I got hired and it
Speaker 6: was a very quick turnaround, like weeks. No, ma'am, it
Speaker 6: was less than a week, I think, No, yes so much.
Speaker 6: So yeah, So I I remember I just found the
Speaker 6: synopsis for seasons one through four, just the brodstroke top level,
Speaker 6: so I could just sort of have a general idea
Speaker 6: just kissing and crying exactly. And then I binged watch
Speaker 6: five and six and that, yeah and that, so that
Speaker 6: that was it. So I was, But so I had well,
Speaker 6: I hadn't watched seasons one through four. I felt pretty comfortable.
Speaker 6: Wasn't like an experience of coming in and going I
Speaker 6: don't know if I know, everything seems so bab.
Speaker 5: That was it.
Speaker 1: You folded in so seamlessly. You seemed so comfortable. And
Speaker 1: I haven't watched the premiere of season seven since it
Speaker 1: came out. I was really surprised at how I was wondering, like,
Speaker 1: is this just because I know Rob, or No, it's not.
Speaker 1: You moved the way you moved around the set, the
Speaker 1: way you moved around with the different actors that you
Speaker 1: were interacting with. You and James had this report that
Speaker 1: seemed like you've known each other for years. It was
Speaker 1: really great. I mean, I guess that's what actors do.
Speaker 5: But you know, did you guys know each other from before?
Speaker 6: No, what's funny? And I wanted to ask you about
Speaker 6: this self. So the only person I knew was so
Speaker 6: and I was actually trying to remember. I don't know
Speaker 6: our actual origin story, but all I know is you
Speaker 6: and I hung out in New York City. Yep, I
Speaker 6: was there, I think doing lipstick. Yeah, you came out
Speaker 6: for something and so we were. We somehow met before then,
Speaker 6: because we knew each other enough that one of us
Speaker 6: reached out to the other and we went and we
Speaker 6: got cats is together. We went shopping in the you know,
Speaker 6: and soho. But how did we first meet?
Speaker 3: I think it was I think it was Brooke Shields
Speaker 3: because I've known her for so long.
Speaker 5: Brook Shields, surely, what what are you guys talking about?
Speaker 3: She's just the nicest human being in the world, and
Speaker 3: you were doing lipstick jungle with her, and oh my god,
Speaker 3: I remember if it was like I don't know, because
Speaker 3: when we got into seasons five and six, I was
Speaker 3: really trying to learn, like truly learn about the fashion industry.
Speaker 3: Not like, you know, I'm going to make up that
Speaker 3: I know how to sew and sew a whole line
Speaker 3: as a high school student in an hour on a
Speaker 3: TV show, but like, you know, I was supposed to,
Speaker 3: you know, Brooke Davis was supposed to be like the
Speaker 3: head of one of the biggest brands in America.
Speaker 4: So I.
Speaker 3: Took a lot of meetings with women who had started lines,
Speaker 3: Like I remember meeting Monique Lulier and Tory Burch and
Speaker 3: like all these women who became these sort of iconic,
Speaker 3: you know, basis of female American fashion designers, and so
Speaker 3: I was I would like go up and try you know,
Speaker 3: We'd get a day off and I'd take the one
Speaker 3: hour flight to New York and go to like three
Speaker 3: shows and take a meeting. And I was like meeting,
Speaker 3: I don't know, there's a lot of people in that
Speaker 3: world trying to like do homework, and I feel like
Speaker 3: it was like a fashion week thing you guys were
Speaker 3: doing for your show. And I probably made a joke
Speaker 3: about how, you know, the most irritating thing about those
Speaker 3: parties is there's no food anywhere, and you, I, in
Speaker 3: my memory cracked a joke about probably a hot dog,
Speaker 3: and I think it was like I think I said
Speaker 3: to you, have you ever been to Kats's Deli? And
Speaker 3: that was it. I was like, Bro, we got to
Speaker 3: get a pastrami and a matzo ball soup immediately, and
Speaker 3: then we were fast friends because we were like, oh,
Speaker 3: you you eat the things, me too, Let's go.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Oh you love yourself great, let's go eat.
Speaker 3: This is great, this sounds like a wonderful day.
Speaker 1: Rob.
Speaker 5: That's how we met you. Rob is the person that
Speaker 5: just wants to eat with you.
Speaker 4: And when we first met, it was my first time
Speaker 4: scene every one since I left the show. It was
Speaker 4: the convention and Paris, and so I was so kind
Speaker 4: of uncomfortable because I didn't know where I stood with
Speaker 4: so many people.
Speaker 5: And Rob, I was like, wait a second, you're that
Speaker 5: dude I talked to on the phone. And we peeled
Speaker 5: off immediately. It was just like, we need to go.
Speaker 4: Like eat things and not talk about the show. Let's
Speaker 4: talk about everything else. And then I met up with
Speaker 4: you again in Vancouver for food, where you were teaching
Speaker 4: my son how to do magic tricks because you were
Speaker 4: a child magician.
Speaker 6: That's right.
Speaker 4: If you guys haven't gone to dinner with Rob, you're
Speaker 4: in luck because Drama Queens is now a Rob Buckley
Speaker 4: dinner party.
Speaker 3: Oh does this mean we get food every week?
Speaker 6: Oh my goodness. Have you heard about corn dogs?
Speaker 4: I'm very queen corn dogs dat dog in Louisiana.
Speaker 6: Back to what you were saying, joy about it feeling natural.
Speaker 6: So I have very few memories of One Tree Hill.
Speaker 6: This is this is a pattern with me. I mean,
Speaker 6: like I remember maybe twenty percent of my child, but
Speaker 6: I remember. This is why I'm kind of and I'm
Speaker 6: very excited to do this with you all because truly
Speaker 6: I never went back and rewatched the show.
Speaker 1: Yeah so much. We'll come back to you when you're
Speaker 1: latching it unlocks.
Speaker 6: One tre Hill was an interesting time for me. More
Speaker 6: to that to come. But like I when One Tree
Speaker 6: Hill ended, I was very comfortable shutting the door and
Speaker 6: just never looking back. And so and then, I mean,
Speaker 6: a lot has happened. Maybe that's a conversation for a
Speaker 6: different time in terms of like, so I left it
Speaker 6: kind of going that was a lot and then these
Speaker 6: conventions started and we got to all meet as adults
Speaker 6: out of that environment, and I felt like, I'm so
Speaker 6: grateful for the conventions because they gave me this second
Speaker 6: experience with One Tree Hill, where I got to really
Speaker 6: get to know you guys, and and by that point
Speaker 6: I had really started to know myself as well, So
Speaker 6: I was able to have these new relationships. And I
Speaker 6: have now such a greater appreciation for the show and
Speaker 6: for that experience. So just that to say that it's
Speaker 6: I am very interested to watch because I remember so little.
Speaker 6: But one thing I do remember very clearly. I think
Speaker 6: it was the first scene Joy and I ever had,
Speaker 6: and it was us on the like your patio or
Speaker 6: maybe my character's patio. We were outside and I was
Speaker 6: sitting in a chair and you basically came in hot saying,
Speaker 6: this is my husband's dream, he provides for his family,
Speaker 6: don't screw this up. It was, you know, a wonderfully
Speaker 6: Haley speech, right or moment. And I just remember, you
Speaker 6: know how as an actors, just as a human, sometimes
Speaker 6: you're in a scene and you're doing the scene, but
Speaker 6: you're also like having thoughts about whether it's like I
Speaker 6: can't believe I'm in this with this person, or that
Speaker 6: just happened. I remember sitting in the chair being kind
Speaker 6: of scolded or yelled at by you and thinking, ah,
Speaker 6: this is gonna be fun.
Speaker 5: This is good, that's so great.
Speaker 6: So I felt the same way. I kind of it
Speaker 6: was just it was easy with you. Great, I see
Speaker 6: what this is gonna be. We're gonna play you give it,
Speaker 6: I give it all right?
Speaker 1: Great, Well that's that's kind of one of my questions
Speaker 1: was how was it intimidating coming in or did it
Speaker 1: feel easy? I mean, I know, as an adult actor,
Speaker 1: it's part of the job. You come in and out
Speaker 1: of shows that have been established for a long time.
Speaker 1: But we were still pretty young, and that was that
Speaker 1: feeling coming in before you had that moment where you know,
Speaker 1: we knew, okay, this is going to be fun. I
Speaker 1: get him, I get his vibe, his sense of humor, like,
Speaker 1: we're going to be able to play play in these scenes.
Speaker 1: There's not there, there's space for all that. But before
Speaker 1: that moment, was it nerve wracking? Did you have a
Speaker 1: lot of time to spend with us before the show
Speaker 1: or was it just like shot out of the cannon
Speaker 1: walking in like let's see how this goes.
Speaker 6: It's out of a cannon completely, And I had never
Speaker 6: I had been I've replaced people, or been or been
Speaker 6: a replacement on a pilot, but I had never joined
Speaker 6: something that was already going so strong for so long. Yeah,
Speaker 6: and again pre therapy, my thinking was, Okay, only two
Speaker 6: things have changed on this show. Two things went away
Speaker 6: and two things came in. So if this does not
Speaker 6: go well, if this does not at least maintain, if
Speaker 6: not improved, I am at minimum fifty percent to blame
Speaker 6: for the demise of this popular success.
Speaker 5: His nerd math, He's like the percentages of responsibility.
Speaker 6: I truly was, so, I wait, that's going to really
Speaker 6: mess with your pressure. Well, yeah, and it's also distorted
Speaker 6: because now as an adult, I know it's that's that's
Speaker 6: out of my control. Of course, I suit up, I
Speaker 6: show up, I do my best, and the rest is
Speaker 6: none of my business, you know. And and if fans
Speaker 6: aren't gonna like that, you know, Hillary and Chad aren't there,
Speaker 6: then you know, all I can do is my best
Speaker 6: and that's it. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I don't know, dude.
Speaker 4: I watched episode one today to prep because before you
Speaker 4: came on, I wanted to see episode seven on one.
Speaker 5: I wanted to see who this Clayman was.
Speaker 4: And you are so slick.
Speaker 5: And likable, which is a very fine line to walk. Yeah, right,
Speaker 5: it's like, oh, this is the scheme that just like
Speaker 5: sleeps with Rando chicks. But also he's so funny.
Speaker 4: And he's like quick, he's on the phone with his
Speaker 4: mom and like, I just I got why you fit automatically,
Speaker 4: you know, like it was really it was cute.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was multi dimensional baby rab yeah into it.
Speaker 6: I thinks, I can't I can't wait to see it.
Speaker 5: Well, did they give you any idea what your trajectory
Speaker 5: was going to be?
Speaker 4: Like obviously it's like, oh, this is an agent, what's
Speaker 4: his long game?
Speaker 6: No, they didn't. And also, speaking of messing with your head,
Speaker 6: I the first scene that uc clayan was not the
Speaker 6: first scene we shot. There was a scene the very
Speaker 6: first scene they had me to do. It was me
Speaker 6: giving a lecture or a speech to two hundred extras.
Speaker 1: I remember this, yeah, right, yeah, I remember about this.
Speaker 5: It was a whole thing.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it was the first day. Maybe I
Speaker 6: met you, I met Sean Tell. There's a lot of
Speaker 6: people there, but It's just so funny that your first
Speaker 6: scene they're like, hey, go ahead and just do a
Speaker 6: three page monologue in front of two hundred people. Knew hire,
Speaker 6: Let's see how this goes. And but you know, I
Speaker 6: felt it went well. And then I remember shortly thereafter
Speaker 6: them going yeah, we're canning that scene and we're going
Speaker 6: to write you a new scene.
Speaker 5: Stop.
Speaker 1: That is such a scary thing for a new actor
Speaker 1: on a show that's been so established, and when there's
Speaker 1: so much on your shoulders to get a call like
Speaker 1: that where you're like, did I just completely screw this
Speaker 1: whole thing up? And like you have to write differently
Speaker 1: because I'm so bad? That would be the first thing
Speaker 1: that I think. And it's amazing because that's not what
Speaker 1: they did at all.
Speaker 6: Continue well, and I like you, I will if there
Speaker 6: is a problem, I will default to looking for the
Speaker 6: cause of the problem within myself. Yes, so as opposed
Speaker 6: to this scene didn't work, My first thought is was
Speaker 6: I not good? Did I not make the right choice?
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
Speaker 6: But they were good about saying it's just it's a
Speaker 6: little flat, it's not as good as it could have been.
Speaker 1: They knew you were better than what they wrote and
Speaker 1: they had to step up.
Speaker 6: And truth be told. This scene that they ended up doing,
Speaker 6: which I think it's it's Clay rolling a call while
Speaker 6: he's add walking around his office. He's bouncing a ball
Speaker 6: off the wall, just talking to an assistant through the wall.
Speaker 3: So much better.
Speaker 6: It forms the audience so much more as to who
Speaker 6: this guy is versus me standing in a place ted
Speaker 6: talking for three minutes.
Speaker 1: I've never seen them do that in the history of
Speaker 1: our show, have you guys where like they shot they
Speaker 1: fully shot something and then said, you know what, we
Speaker 1: don't like this, let's do something.
Speaker 4: I have that whole storyline with the orphan you guys,
Speaker 4: that's how you got on the show.
Speaker 5: Okay, well with a different Hayley. That's true, super true.
Speaker 5: Sometimes yeah, they he did it a couple of times.
Speaker 5: But yeah, but to do it this.
Speaker 4: Late in the game, I mean, when you're in the
Speaker 4: process of setting up the show.
Speaker 6: I get it.
Speaker 4: But I'm glad they took the time with you because
Speaker 4: I thought that introduction was really effective. I agree, And again,
Speaker 4: like we have loved James in the bromances that we've
Speaker 4: got to see him in, and to get to see
Speaker 4: him in a whole new one so fun.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you know what.
Speaker 3: I will also say, there's something very cool to me.
Speaker 3: I get what you mean, Hill that like in the beginning,
Speaker 3: they might be a little more willing to say we
Speaker 3: haven't quite found it yet in terms of what the
Speaker 3: show needs. But I also think the inverse of that
Speaker 3: seven years in is by the end of your first week, Rob,
Speaker 3: they were like, wait, he's quick, he's funny, his physical
Speaker 3: comedy is great, and we wrote him a scene where
Speaker 3: he has to stand still like a car salesman and
Speaker 3: talk to kids. That's like a boring adult thing. And
Speaker 3: this guy is like young, sexy, funny, exciting, We should
Speaker 3: give him something funny and exciting that makes his character
Speaker 3: seem like sexy and edgy and like he's got all
Speaker 3: this stuff going on. And I like that they knew
Speaker 3: they could take the time and do that because we
Speaker 3: were seven years in. Who who at home was going
Speaker 3: to be like, you absolutely don't have the budget to
Speaker 3: spend half a day shooting a new scene. Like they
Speaker 3: were like, ough, yes we do, and they did it
Speaker 3: and it was the right call.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Also it was it was a great example of the
Speaker 6: first scene was what is what is the old adedes
Speaker 6: at show don't tell, right, And the first the first
Speaker 6: way they had it was just me standing, this is
Speaker 6: who the character is?
Speaker 3: Where is that he's very successful and important?
Speaker 6: Yeah. Also you need to get their intro of this
Speaker 6: character right, because of course everyone's going to be going,
Speaker 6: who's the who's the new guy? Chad?
Speaker 5: We love?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I was just thinking, because those are
Speaker 1: such big as you know, choose to fill, which you
Speaker 1: you know, that's not that there were shoes to fill.
Speaker 1: It was just there was an empty space and it's
Speaker 1: how do you bring somebody into that. That's probably why
Speaker 1: you got the job so late, Ron, because they were
Speaker 1: looking for so long to try and find somebody who
Speaker 1: could come in with an energy that felt familiar but
Speaker 1: was new enough that people weren't going to compare you
Speaker 1: to Chad. And what was interesting actually is that because
Speaker 1: your energy is so similar to Hillary's and so similar
Speaker 1: to Peyton, they the audience is getting that familiarity, but
Speaker 1: it's not in the way that they to where it
Speaker 1: would be comparable with Chad at all. And Chantelle smart Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Chantelle actually is on the other spectrum with this
Speaker 1: sort of complicated emotional Lucas energy. It was so smart.
Speaker 3: They inverted the characters in a really, really smart way,
Speaker 3: and they gave us boy Hillary and girl chat.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I want you so smart and me a girl.
Speaker 6: We did it. We freaky Friday.
Speaker 3: Called beautiful by your Sundaday, Rob.
Speaker 5: How do you feel?
Speaker 6: Hey? The rest of the day's bonus? All right, it's
Speaker 6: a way today.
Speaker 4: I have only heard about your character through conventions, and
Speaker 4: what happens to Clay on his trajectory in tree Hill
Speaker 4: sounds very similar to the things that Peyton experienced, and
Speaker 4: it felt weird that we had so much crossover. So
Speaker 4: I would love to do a little never have I
Speaker 4: ever with you as Clay and Peyton.
Speaker 5: My first question is have you ever had a stalker?
Speaker 6: Whoa yes?
Speaker 4: Have you cheated on anyone?
Speaker 6: No, not that I'm aware of. Peyton did, to the
Speaker 6: best of my collection, Clay after his wife passed spoiler alert.
Speaker 6: After his wife it was just a series of sort
Speaker 6: of flings. He never allowed himself to get sort of
Speaker 6: attached to anything, so there was really no opportunity to cheat.
Speaker 6: He didn't really open himself up again until it was
Speaker 6: with Quinn.
Speaker 3: That's very Brooke Davis of him. Actually yeah, but wait.
Speaker 4: Speaking of dead wife one of these on here, have
Speaker 4: you ever been abandoned or had like the loved one die?
Speaker 6: Oh and in the most tragic way. By the way,
Speaker 6: when I was a couple of episodes just your what
Speaker 6: you had to do so often, but especially in like
Speaker 6: season six, Hillary, you had such heavy lifting. I remember,
Speaker 6: oh point because you all were talking about it, how
Speaker 6: it's boy, she's really going through it, and I thinking,
Speaker 6: as man, that would be just so exhausting as an actor.
Speaker 6: Good for Hillary. And then I had a moment of going.
Speaker 3: Wife, did it?
Speaker 6: I had an estranged kid. Oh my gosh, that's.
Speaker 5: Right, I had a secret relative.
Speaker 6: No, I had a son. I forgot about capital.
Speaker 5: Oh my god. So you were the Ellie I love Joy.
Speaker 3: I see you making the same face. I'm we're watching
