21
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:30,640

Speaker 1: F above high se I have like a three note range,

24
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: So the fact that she's able to hit a note

25
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: that there's not even like an actual key for because.

26
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 2: It's above high.

Speaker 1: You know, I can't hear your voice without like wanting

61
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: to say something like, you know, a line from Wicked.

62
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,800

64
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:10,120

00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,280

00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:12,840

00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 3: No tell me, I.

68
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: Think I saw you in it three times. I've seen

69
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: it three or four more times since, but you I

70
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: think you were you were in it the first three

71
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: times I saw.

72
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 3: Oh, Mike, I'm so glad. Did you love it? Do

73
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 3: you think I will tell you something? A little Bertie

74
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 3: told me that you snuck in some really nice fancy

75
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 3: popcorn to Wicked and got caught away and pretended to

76
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 3: go to a car that doesn't experience in front of

77
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 3: the acuter you don't put your porn away, and then

78
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 3: came back and still sew it in it, brought it

79
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: in again, and then you both started chopping because you

80
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 3: were hungry. And I just want to say that at

81
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 3: my show, I welcomed the popcorn. Bring it.

82
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 2: Oh did they tell you that that?

83
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 1: In order to get in, I found a really handsome

84
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: man and I went and looped my arm through his

85
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: so I could hide the bag, and his girlfriend or

86
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: his wife that was on the other side did not

87
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: appreciate that.

88
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 3: Actually, that part of the story was left out. But

89
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 3: my favorite is that your friend when you said, okay,

90
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 3: i'll take it out, I'll take it to the car,

91
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 3: and you both neither one of you brought your car,

92
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 3: and you went.

93
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 2: We don't have a car. I'm like, shut up, you

94
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 2: shutting up.

95
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 3: Go with me, here, go with me. I think it's

96
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 3: hilarious that she also when you were eating it in

97
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 3: the show she couldn't help herself and how to eat

98
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 3: it too. I think that's funny. I'm sorry, that's one

99
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 3: of my favorite theater stories.

100
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to kill her. I'm so going to kill her.

101
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: Oh. I wasn't going to let you get away with it, baby,

102
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: I was not going to let you get away with it.

103
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: All right, we'll have popcorn together. It was the calmely corn.

104
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, it was so good. When I see you,

105
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: I will bring you some.

106
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: You know what, Bring it to me and give it

107
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 3: me while I'm a stage. I think that'd be a

108
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 3: really big hit.

109
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 2: Don't dare me, Kristen, because I will.

110
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 3: I dare you, I dare you? Friend along I love it.

Speaker 1: listening because they could be an honorary girl. All they

121
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,359

Speaker 1: how you chose the particular songs that that you chose

126
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: the way we were. Oh my gosh, that was the

127
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: theme of our high school prom, by the way, was

128
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 1: it really?

129
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 2: It was?

130
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: It was our senior high school prom and we decorated

131
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: with evergreens all over the gymnasium.

132
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 2: Yeah was it?

00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 3: Yeah? Cool?

134
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 2: It was super cool.

135
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: Our proms were not like you spend five thousand dollars

136
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: to have a limo and a corsage and sit down dinner.

137
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: We'd go get pizza at Pizza Rays and then go

138
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: to the grade school gymnasium and dance.

139
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. Same here. Yeah.

140
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: But I especially, I especially want you to share the

141
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: story of Desperado because that is my dedication to somebody

142
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: I love dearly.

143
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 2: So tell me about that when.

144
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 3: It makes me. It makes me so happy. Well, I

145
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,679
Speaker 3: was a little kid. I remember hearing this beautiful woman's

146
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 3: voice sing in this song Desperado. I went, I understand that,

147
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 3: and I just get it because when I heard it

148
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 3: and Linda sang it, I thought, well, yeah, I feel

149
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 3: like that sometimes, believe it or not. And this is

150
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: a little known fact about me. I can be kind

151
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: of a loner. And sometimes our friends are like, u

152
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 3: U up, she's going there, she's going to Mia, She's

153
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 3: going Mia. It's just I can get like scared commitment

154
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 3: and I can be alone and I can battle those

155
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 3: kinds of feelings. And not that I'm like, oh, I'm

156
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 3: such a I'm such a recruit, but I do have

157
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 3: to be with music, and I do have to be

00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,680

00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 3: always and understanding the changes of my voice and DEA's

160
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 3: the deepening that's happening. And I have to I have

161
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 3: to learn music all the time, and if I don't,

162
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 3: I'm just not myself. And and some may call that selfish.

163
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: I call that being true to living out your truth.

164
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: You are living out your truth and you're doing it

165
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: beautifully and you get more beautiful every day.

166
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 3: That is so lovely. Thank you, Julilah. Thank you. You know,

167
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: as women we age and we go oh look at

168
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 3: that there, sat wrinkle. Oh no, thanks for falling.

169
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 2: But here's the thing.

170
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: Don't you feel that as you grow, as you mature,

171
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: as you learn to accept yourself. I feel, at least

172
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 1: for myself, I feel more beautiful than I did when

173
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: I was modeling and weighed fifty pounds less in my twenties.

174
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I feel more confident. I feel like I

175
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 3: care more about what I think of myself than I

176
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 3: do about what others.

177
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 2: Amen.

178
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: Well, thank you for spending all this time with us

179
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: and for sharing your heart.

180
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 2: I want to talk.

181
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: About your before we go your charity, because the whole

182
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: reason I do love someone with Delilah this podcast is

183
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: to encourage people, even if they're Broadway stars, even if

184
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: they haven't been in TV shows, even if they weren't

185
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: nominated for Tony's and Grammys and awards, even if they

186
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: haven't had the level of success that you have enjoyed.

187
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: Everybody can change the world for good.

188
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 3: That's right.

189
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 2: And I know you have an organization, a foundation.

190
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: That changes the world for good so that other people

191
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: who were gifted with the talents and the passions to

192
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 1: be in the arts can pursue that. Tell me a

193
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 1: little bit about that and how people can find out more.

194
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 3: First of alf, thank you for what you do. I

195
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 3: want to do the same. Ten years ago in my

196
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,439
Speaker 3: hometown of Broken Arrow, they opened a theater. We never

197
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 3: had anything like a performing arts center, and we have

198
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 3: the state of the art theater, and they contacted me

199
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 3: and told me that they were going to name the

200
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 3: theater the Christian CHANNELI theater, and I always had a

201
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 3: heart attack because I thought, I'm not old enough to

202
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 3: have anything that named after me, and they think you are.

203
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: I have people send me pictures of their pet pigs

204
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: named after me, so you know, I would take a theater,

205
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 1: but I'm happy with the little pet pigs.

206
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely. And then when I finally got over myself,

207
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 3: I was like, what am I going to do with

208
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 3: that name on that building something. I'm not going to

209
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 3: just let it sit there. I'm going to back it.

210
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 3: I'm going to do something. So it started out with

211
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 3: I gave a yearly masterclass to high school and college

212
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 3: students that would I would pick five each and I

213
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: would give master classes. And then it evolved into the

214
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 3: Christian Channel with Broadway boot Camp and many kids all

215
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 3: over the nation audition and I can only choose fifty.

216
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 3: But it happens every year. We just had our fifth

217
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 3: year Broadway boot Camp at the Tony Awards week, we

218
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 3: watched the Tonys on television with pizza in my theater.

219
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 3: We bring down the big screen, we watch it, and

220
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 3: then the next day we start a very intensive singing, acting, dancing,

221
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 3: improv writing week with these kids, with teachers that I

222
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,319
Speaker 3: bring in that are much more talented than I am,

223
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 3: a lot of them famous, a lot of them the

224
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,719
Speaker 3: cohorts of mine. And they then at the end of

225
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 3: the week we put on a show. And what I

226
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 3: love more than anything is this week out of the

227
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 3: whole year, because I see these kids bond, I see

228
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 3: them find each other, I see them grow. I see

229
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,079
Speaker 3: that I have lots of time for them to bond

230
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 3: as well. We have lots of advance parties. We have

231
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,439
Speaker 3: Karaoke Night, we have dresses your favorite Broadway star Knight.

232
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 3: And what's happening now is it's growing so big that

233
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 3: eventually and this is happening center rather than later. I'm

234
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 3: currently fundraising for it. I would like to have a school.

235
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 3: We're building a building next to it which will be

236
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 3: a creative arts center for the kids in the state

237
00:12:54,640 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 3: of Oklahoma, which we'll be able to learn arts and crafts, draw,

238
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 3: graphic design, writing, and it will be obviously geared towards

239
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 3: kids in my home state that can't afford it, and

240
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 3: that will also be fed dinner. So that is something

241
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 3: that is a sidebar to the foundation, the Christian Channel

242
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 3: with Arts and Education Foundation, which I encourage people to

243
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 3: look up. You can also look up the Broken Era

244
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: Performing Arts Center. You can look up Christon Child at

245
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 3: Broadway boot Camp, and you can find all the information

246
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 3: on my website as well. And if there's anybody out

247
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 3: there listening that as a child or a relative that

248
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 3: wants to audition, auditions are in February and they can

249
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 3: be done in person in Broken Era, Oklahoma, or they

250
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 3: can be done by video. And I promise, I swear

251
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 3: that they will leave life. I have had a life

252
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 3: changing experience.

253
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:52,680
