Okay, wait, let's 0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:08.640 get through all of the news and all that fun 0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:13.400 stuff so we can interrogate Kelly for all of his secrets. 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:17.640 So notes, by the way, and took notes. 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:22.479 Okay, I can't wait. All right, So this is season five, 0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:26.280 episode sixteen. This is Tested and this aired on April fifteenth, 0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:28.560 twenty fourteen, the. 0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:31.759 Number one song in the country was still Happy. It's 0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:33.720 just I think it's literally like ten weeks at. 0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:35.880 Number one or it's fine, and the number one movie 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:38.720 is still Captain America Winter Soldier, as it should be. 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:42.920 And now the new format for every episode is to 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:49.800 release a digital ep like that was some big revolutionary yeah, totally, 0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:54.400 featuring four tracks from the episode for digital download only. 0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:57.520 And on April fifteen, the Ryan did a Q and 0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:00.640 A with some press outlets discussing them last few episodes 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.600 of Scenism five and he gave a preview of what's 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:05.920 to come in season six. Okay, so he talked about 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.640 how they had to pivot after Corey's death, of course, 0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:11.200 and the writers decided to shift the show to New 0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:13.760 York or deciding to shift the show to New York 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:16.400 gave them a fresh start and allowed Glee to return 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:20.440 to its roots, which now after watching the last few episodes, 0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:27.040 I agree. He also said that the final season is 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:30.160 really its own story and its own location, and while 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:32.440 the New York step will be alive, the final season 0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:35.000 is not New York centric at all, and he noted 0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:36.800 there will be a time jump for the final episodes, 0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:40.919 which like after it feels a little erratic. I don't 0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:44.000 know if you feel like this, because we did find 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:46.720 our roots again in this like New York spinoff esque 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:51.760 back season five, and like it's so good and focused 0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:55.720 and clear and like we love everybody, and the storylines 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.360 are like, oh, there's time to let them breathe and 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.160 like there's enough forever, and then all of a sudden, 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:03.920 it's like it's not that at all. Let's go to 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:06.520 season Yeah, do you remember confusing? 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:11.120 It was like I don't. I do remember that sort 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:14.080 of shift, and I think because there was the split, right, 0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:19.040 the graduation split that happened in season three four? Oh, yes, 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:22.720 season three, and then so I do remember that sense 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:25.240 of like, okay, let's get these kids out of school, 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:27.680 like who was still there. Let's like kind of wrap 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:30.280 that up and then and then like sort of explore 0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:33.320 this New York thing. This is This was a trend 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:38.280 always with the writers room and with Ryan. He just 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:40.400 it was like always just he would pull that out 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:43.840 of his brain without but sometimes with very little explanation. 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:45.640 So he kind of just come in and be like, 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:46.920 this is what we're gonna do now. 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:48.200 So you know. 0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:52.040 It's like even though like him saying like in the press, 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:53.680 like this is what season six is going to be, 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:55.560 It's like that kind of stuff is always just I 0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:59.200 think percolating in his mind more so something he's bringing 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:03.240 forth like you learn it, yeah, yeah, kind and that's 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.600 not in any kind of nefarious way. It's just because 0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:07.600 he I think that's just how he works. 0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:08.280 Like yeah, oh yeah. 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:09.760 I mean we've talked about that too. 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:12.000 When he's rewritten scenes on the spot or anything like that, 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:13.480 his brain is always just. 0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.320 There would be like there would be days and days 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:18.000 of trying to break a story and it's just not 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:20.839 coming out right, and just redoing it, and then after 0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:22.479 three days he'd just come in and he'd be like, 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:24.120 this is what we're gonna do, and it would be 0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:28.159 like everything makes sense the right. Yeah, So there was 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.960 definitely I definitely remember the energy of like let's shift 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.840 more into this New York thing, Let's put them in 0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:36.400 in more like these like you said, there's more time, 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:38.560 there's more space for things to reade. It's like more 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.919 like a real life application. You're not like in the 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:42.160 microcosm of this school. 0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:44.400 Enjoyed getting to do that. 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:47.960 I think there was definitely definitely an energy of like, okay, 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:52.320 we're we can tell some adult storylines. We can't get 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:56.000 these people into some like you know that we can start, 0:04:56.080 --> 0:05:00.800 their careers can begin, rather than it just being sort 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.200 of in the in the microcosm of the school. 0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:10.960 Well, speaking of adult conversations, this episode is mature, So. 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:14.440 With adult conversations. Oh yeah, Palm the crane is back 0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:19.919 to direct this. And I really enjoyed working with. 0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:22.120 Paul because like a second time around. 0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:26.360 Yeah, because Paul is like a very steady hand. He 0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:30.800 wasn't there all the time. He came in like pretty infrequently. Yes, 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:35.960 but I will say too, I'll speak to the I 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:39.440 liked him because the vibe on set. It was towards 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:43.840 the end of a difficult year. You start to get 0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:47.400 a bit of senior itis, everybody does, and I distinctly 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:49.520 remember him coming in and just being like. 0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:51.040 We're still at work. 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:52.359 This is what we're doing. 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:53.880 Had a vision kind of. 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:55.880 Like the way he did it when he came in 0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:59.279 earlier on, when he did Public Master with us. I 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:02.640 mean that was actually earlier on, but the same vibe 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:03.919 we need for sure. 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:06.000 It was very and I think people were shocked because 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.960 he's not like one of our oldest friends that come 0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:11.680 in there, because you know, we had great relationships with 0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:15.119 so many directors and he was newer, and so having 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:18.000 somebody come in like as you know, we reference it 0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:20.520 like to our own home and then it's sort of 0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:23.520 like correcting the ship was a shock for some people, 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:25.720 and I think it was very good. 0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:28.479 I just want to note also before we get into 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:32.320 the episode, there was a Variety article that came out 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:36.080 this month and it it pegged the one hundred greatest 0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:41.839 TV performances of the twenty first century, and Naya Rivera 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.040 is one of those one hundred. 0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:45.640 Number seventy eight. 0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:48.320 Yeah, that's right, seventy eight. 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:52.320 Girl deserved should be higher. But also there's think about 0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:54.200 this too. This is in the era of streaming where 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:55.720 there's more TV than ever. 0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:58.400 That's what I'm saying. Like that, then it's a crowded 0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:03.479 space and for her to make that mark is actually remarkable. 0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:06.279 And they only pack one from each show, Yeah, one 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:08.800 character from each show, and I think it's very I 0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:11.880 think that in a lot of ways, there's so many 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:15.480 I think Glee's strength is its characters and its breadth 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:19.920 of characters, and that's like really, I think what excites 0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:22.679 people about it, But when you look at the whole show, 0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:26.600 I think when it comes to Santana, there's like a 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:30.000 real that's like a really important through line and arc. 0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:34.120 I think she's kind of the character that changes the 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.920 most that you you know, at the beginning, you know 0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:40.400 she's she's kind of starts as a stock mean girl. 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:43.200 Then by the end of it, she is, you know, 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:47.080 as intro complex as anyone ever was. And you know 0:07:47.120 --> 0:07:52.080 when you look at like Rachel and Mercedes and you know, 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:56.040 Tina and Artie and Kurt, these characters are they kind 0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:59.320 of are they grow it, but they don't change. They're 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:03.880 more contained. Yeah, they they're who they are always. And 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:08.920 I think with Santana, I'm very glad they highlighted Santana 0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:12.280 and Naya, but Santana because I think there's there's so 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:15.120 much goes on in her, you know, coming to terms 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:18.920 with her queer identity and yeah, and really like becoming 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:22.600 a star and knowing star as someone who comes from 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:25.280 the back is I think it's just uh, yeah, I'm 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:27.960 glad they highlighted that, and I think it's well deserved. 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:31.000 And testing it to Naya's abilities as an actor, because 0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:34.040 I mean, as we'd tell you, like as we've gotten 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:37.600 to like New York episodes, how good she is at 0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:43.199 everything comedy, drama, singing. Obviously everybody is, but like. 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:45.120 Put her up against Leah too, like they're going head 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:49.080 to head in this entire season, and like they just 0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:52.280 make each other better because they're so they're both excellent. 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:03.840 So let's talk about the songs we have Addicted to 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:06.239 Love and that's performed by Arty. 0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:09.280 I want to know what love is performed by Mercedes 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:10.080 and the church choir. 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:14.240 Love is a Battlefield by Blaine and Kurt, and. 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.920 Let's Wait a While performed by Arti and Mercedes with 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:18.319 Sam and Julie. 0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:19.360 Yes, that's right. 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:21.560 That was funny. That really did come in at the end, there, 0:09:21.679 --> 0:09:23.160 didn't they with their little. 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:27.560 Groups so funny when we get to that, I haven't 0:09:27.679 --> 0:09:29.520 I have memories for filming that. 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:32.280 Yeah, I feel like we're going to get into this 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:34.440 episode and there's just so much for you to share. 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.400 Kevin and obviously Telly behind the scenes what was happening, 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:41.880 But like because there's there's there's like very clear storylines, 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:44.040 but like I want to hear about Kevin's experience in this. 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:49.839 So this episode marked Kurt's hundredth appearance. Everybody's trucking along. 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:51.800 Now everybody's making their hundred and. 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:55.160 The apartment scene where Artie informs the guys of his STD. 0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:59.600 The end credits of Glee, specifically Frenemies can be seen 0:09:59.640 --> 0:09:59.880 on the t. 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:01.720 That's in my notes. 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:02.280 I got that. 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:03.440 I've noticed that too. 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:08.400 That's great. I didn't see that. That's really funny. During 0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:11.240 the original broadcast of this episode, Leah, Darren, Court and 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:13.600 Ryan tweeted live because that's what we were doing. 0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.880 That is so funny. I didn't mean to the point. 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.760 It was detrimental, to the point where like people would 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.400 be taken out of scenes to have to go like 0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:28.079 sit in the office, and it was such a problem. Yeah, 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:31.439 it was so weird. Anyway, this episode marked the end 0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:36.200 of my streak. Every episode since the premiere, I would 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.440 be absent from the next two episodes, as well as 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:45.880 multiple episodes. Kevin, Wow, this is the time we've talked 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:50.240 about it. Where I Paul Ryan months before this asked 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:51.200 if I could do a movie. 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:52.320 He said yes. 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:56.080 Not everybody in production was stoked about that because it 0:10:56.080 --> 0:10:58.640 would be an issue to work out the schedule. It 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:02.360 was not thrown down the chain like it was supposed 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:06.480 to be, and I was supposed to be off this 0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:08.000 week because. 0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:10.800 I was working based on what we recapped last week. 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:14.079 It seems like they thought last week you were supposed 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:14.480 to be off. 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:18.600 Yes, because I was barely in that episode, and I 0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:21.640 was one of the main storylines in this episode, which 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:25.840 I think you can see, and what I will critically 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:29.960 say of myself not the greatest performance because I was 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:34.120 stretched so that I was in Connecticut, flying to LA 0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:38.320 doing those weekend things, and then we were also doing 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:40.760 exteriors in New York at the exact same time. 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:44.000 You're very you used to be very solid deprecating, and 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:48.480 you still are, but not quite as badly. I'm worrying, 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:52.000 and and not even on the show, like I feel 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:55.600 like as we rewatched, like we've actually taken more credit 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.320 where it's due. That we were working hard and we 0:11:58.320 --> 0:11:59.920 were like, okay, I could watch that again, like that 0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:01.960 that's fine. Now we don't like to watch ourselves. But 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:04.880 I think you did grain this episode. I would never 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:09.320 have known. I never would have known, and I feel 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:13.760 like it was interesting and different and like everybody was involved, 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:18.600 and I really enjoyed this whole boy storyline that was 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:22.160 kind of driven by Artie's STDs. 0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:24.720 It was really fun to we were not getting into 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:27.760 this now, I guess, but it was. It was very 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:30.160 fun to film with all the boys because that didn't 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:32.280 normally happen and we were all New York together. 0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:35.280 And we you know, it is different, like we don't 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:37.720 get to see that, like you see boys versus girls, right, 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:41.360 like we've seen that throughout through the test of time. Ugly, 0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:45.000 but like to watch a whole storyline, like an a 0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:47.840 storyline happened with just the guys and like Leah's in 0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:52.520 one scene I think in this whole episode. Yeah, it's 0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:55.559 it's really fun. And you guys got to go Serendipity. 0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:59.160 It was a full day at Serendipity. 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:03.040 I'm so jealous. I'm so jas. 0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:05.120 I had never been before, so that's one of those threes. 0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:07.439 So I had to come in from Connecticut. I think 0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:11.040 they had to start filmed something earlier than if I 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:15.280 remember correctly. Then we shot those two scenes in Serendipity 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.719 the back half of the day because I wasn't be 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:18.680 able to make it earlier. 0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:21.480 Okay, before we get into the too, tell you I'm 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.439 curious to hear, like what was going on in the 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:25.199 writer's room, Like was. 0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:27.079 There any talk of the scheduling? 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:30.120 Oh no, okay, yeah, this this scheduling debacle feels to 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:33.280 me like indicative of the follies of Glee and the 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:36.520 so many balls in the air that summer bound to 0:13:36.559 --> 0:13:40.560 be dropped somewhere along the line. You know, this is 0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:42.400 later in the season. I think, what episode is this 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:46.839 in the season? Yeah, sixteen, So we're like getting we're 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:50.560 in the back half now, and the writer's room was 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.360 like a log jam at this point. So it's like 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:56.520 we are we are putting out acts of the next 0:13:56.559 --> 0:14:00.160 episode while we're rewriting and finishing the previous one. And 0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:02.440 you know, it's like there would be times when we're 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.280 filling like three episodes at once. Yeah, kind of finishing this, 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:07.280 doing that, getting that, because the songs all have to 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.360 be cleared, and then there's a union in New York, 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:11.199 and then there's a unit in a back in LA 0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:15.720 and so you know, at this time, it's like I 0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:19.880 was the script coordinator, so I was balanced. I was 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:23.400 juggling many scripts at a time, yes, and you know, 0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:25.960 and then revisions and then this and that, so It's 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:28.560 hard to pinpoint exactly like what was going on with 0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:30.600 this episode because this was sort of the time of 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:35.520 year where everything was happening, things were moving, we were 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:38.800 getting to the end of the season, trying to land 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:39.240 the plane. 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.200 So yeah, for sure, I remember it was ever hectic. 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:45.080 It was just that we had to keep we had 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:47.080 to keep a balance, We had to keep things, we 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:49.000 had to keep things clear, everything, We had to know 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:49.560 what we. 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:53.160 Were doing well, and to shoot multiple episodes because you're 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:55.800 in New York. You have to take advantage of so 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:57.320 many talent being in. 0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.960 New York at what you need. You need the episode 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:00.480 in advance. 0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:03.720 Yes, strong, right, So this was yeah, we would I 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.240 remember too. I think there were maybe two or three 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:08.320 New York units, but it was we kind of have 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:10.880 to get a few episodes up and then and then 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:12.840 you know, plan the week in New York and shoot 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:13.920 a few of those all at once. 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:15.000 Got it. 0:15:15.120 --> 0:15:18.200 The official Fox publicity summary for this is when the 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:21.520 boys get tested for STDs. Already tests positive for a 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:24.920 disease and he's forced to tell his sexual partners. Meanwhile, 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:27.960 Kurt and Blaine have relationship issues when Blaine puts on 0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:29.280 his freshman fifteen. 0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:35.840 Okay, there's three big storylines here, like really big storylines, 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:39.840 and they all intertwine in some way, which which is 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:45.040 why I appreciate these the smaller cast, the more focused storylines, 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:48.840 because they're intertwining. But they have their own thing, like 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:51.760 already you have your own thing at school. Sam's dealing 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:54.280 with the STD thing, but then also Mercedes, and then 0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:58.200 Blaine's also there but dealing also with Kurt and feeling insecure, 0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:01.800 and they're all really beautiful. Thought, everybody's performances were excellent 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:07.360 in this this episode. So Kevin Arty is a ladies man, 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.200 so I guess like you have found your stride. Yes, 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:13.040 rolling down those hallways. 0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:13.920 A new set. 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:18.240 We love, a new set. I felt very important because 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:21.720 that set was built for Artie and that yes, that 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:27.480 was an La got it and so addicted to Love 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:33.640 was in La downtown in La As. My story about this, 0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:35.680 and I've referenced it before, is that when I was 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:38.520 doing that montage and addicted to love of cooking up 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:43.920 with all the girls in my dorm room, that's when 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:48.280 Roger the ad came over to me and said, Taylor 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:54.120 Swift is here. What and if you see some of 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:56.880 those shots. We were going very quickly. All the girls 0:16:56.880 --> 0:16:59.920 were there. I was, you know, like switching one wolf 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:03.880 butter for another. It's hot under those lights. I was 0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:08.760 a little stanky with the wools, you know, sweaty comb 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:13.919 over happening. And then Roger Taylor Swift is here and 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:16.720 like we had known each like we knew each other. Yeah, 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:17.840 and and. 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:19.600 Everybody is dead silent. 0:17:20.359 --> 0:17:23.400 I've like, everyone is so eerily quiet. I look up. 0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:28.159 I'm like where like I knew. I thought maybe she 0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:30.879 was like on Paramount and she wanted to see us, 0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:35.159 Like fine, he said no, no, right behind me, he moves 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:38.879 and she just peaks around and it's like, hey ah, 0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:40.880 she was filming something on one of the other stages. 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:43.200 And so then like you know, we hug, we chat 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:46.679 for a little bit, and then I'm so like weird, 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:49.480 I'm doing all these weird gesticulations because I'm like, I 0:17:49.680 --> 0:17:53.240 probably smell. I became so self conscious. Oh my god, 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:54.960 that was going on. And it was like a really 0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:57.120 small unit because it was just like a little set 0:17:57.240 --> 0:17:59.560 with so it was not like at the full crew. 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:05.560 Did make me feel very famous, like Taylor fifty and 0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.000 I'm in my head, I'm like I'm so sorry, I'm 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:12.880 the only one here. Like, I know you probably wanted 0:18:12.920 --> 0:18:16.040 to see like somebody else, but like I'm well she. 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:18.439 Was like friends with like actual friends with like a 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:19.520 bunch of our casts. 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:24.399 Yeah that's super nice and like cool and yeah no 0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:27.480 we chatted crack some jokes and I. 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:30.360 Just wow, that's exciting. 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:31.240 Yeah it was. 0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:33.840 I loved that. I feel like that was the Glease 0:18:33.880 --> 0:18:37.280 set sometimes felt like a clubhouse in that way where 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:39.640 it's like people would just roll up and roll in 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:42.400 and totally totally. 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:45.000 Yeah did in one direction, like why aren't they shooting 0:18:45.080 --> 0:18:47.359 on there for a little while? Or am I am? 0:18:47.400 --> 0:18:48.320 I like crazy? 0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:51.920 Well what happened is around like the VMA's and a 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:57.560 war that people would shoot certain things for those or 0:18:57.600 --> 0:19:00.359 touring footage. You when people have like the screen the 0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.920 footage on the screen that the use for tours, they soundstages, 0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:07.119 and sometimes they'd be a paramount and so they would 0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:11.200 sort of come over or we'd hear about it and like, oh, 0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:12.880 well we know them, and we would try to go. 0:19:12.880 --> 0:19:15.840 Implement find them, right, get on the golf cart and 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:16.320 find them. 0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:16.879 Okay. 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:19.400 So Addicted to love was great, Kevin. I really liked 0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:22.359 it that was really fun. It seemed like there was 0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:24.200 a lot of moving parts though to do that, and 0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:27.520 like a lot of like little bits of segments shot 0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:28.960 here and there and everywhere. 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:32.760 I guess I'm critical of my performance because and addicted 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:37.480 to love. I'm like Luke Edgemond had me like singing 0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:42.439 from You're singing and like recording that was so hard 0:19:42.920 --> 0:19:47.399 but also so satisfying. But the effort and Amber is 0:19:47.440 --> 0:19:49.400 really good at this because Amber can sing with zero 0:19:49.480 --> 0:19:50.760 effort and sounds so good. 0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:51.440 Hmm. 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:55.439 The effort was you'll act it out. The effort was 0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:56.439 not on my face. 0:19:57.760 --> 0:20:00.320 I got it, I saying yeah yeah. 0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:03.000 And there was one shot literally I have all these 0:20:03.080 --> 0:20:05.960 dancers around me and we're downtown and I'm lit. It's 0:20:06.000 --> 0:20:08.880 like I'm a star of the show, right, and there's 0:20:09.000 --> 0:20:12.200 nothing happening on my face. My face is not moving. 0:20:12.280 --> 0:20:14.200 And last night and I was watching it, like I'm 0:20:14.320 --> 0:20:19.000 so tired, so I'm trying. I probably thought I was 0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:23.760 giving something. I probably was trying my hardest, but nothing show. No. 0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:27.320 Yeah, but I don't I actually I didn't notice that. 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:29.879 I thought you did great. And I also think that 0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:33.760 you know more than we know. You know what I mean, like, 0:20:33.920 --> 0:20:36.280 you know, more like I would have been like, yes, 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:39.920 he produces those vocals looking like that, because like it's TV. 0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:42.800 Oh I wish I created those vocals at ease with 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:45.639 my face just like this is nothing. I don't know. 0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:47.480
