What was the Office 207 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 3: doing right at a time when so many people are 208 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 3: frustrated with their work experiences or the environments that we 209 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 3: have today. 210 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: What was what was right about the work environment? 211 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 6: Well, you know, it always starts at the top, and 212 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 6: our showrunner Craig Daniels and our lead Steve Corral were 213 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 6: really good. They're good human beings, and they also put 214 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 6: the show before anybody's ego, so it was always about 215 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 6: the work. And you know, you can't act like a 216 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 6: douchebag at the leads, not acting like a douchebag. 217 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 4: If the guy who has more lines than anybody, you know. 218 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 6: So yeah, and also I always felt like we were 219 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 6: treated like there was no hierarchy. We knew the was 220 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 6: a hierarchy, but information was the seminated actually, like we 221 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 6: all knew a lot of the same things, like which 222 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 6: is unusual. Sometimes there's tears of knowledge and shut out 223 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 6: and have to have a certain contract to know that 224 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 6: or whatever. And I, especially for the first few years, 225 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 6: I felt like we always were just just treated like 226 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 6: a family, like we were all in the same room 227 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 6: together for so much, so many you know, so many years, 228 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 6: and and uh, it really felt like everyone cared. 229 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 4: About each other. 230 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: I always found when I got to ABC, it was 231 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: like the end of an era. And but it was 232 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: the same way where like John Ritter was doing his 233 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: show and everybody fell in line because he was that guy. 234 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: And then like in My People, Yeah, it's like every 235 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: show had a patriarch or a matriarch that really set 236 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: the tone. And then when the ensemble craze happened of 237 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives and all that, it like 238 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: all that dissipated and it blew up because everybody was 239 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: fighting for themselves. 240 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: That's the thing. You're so right about. 241 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 3: The secrets thing too, and the like. It's like if 242 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 3: people are being used to pit against each other, which 243 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 3: you know a little bit about that from The Bachelor, 244 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 3: but you it creates, well, people are angry at each other, 245 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 3: they're resemful, they're scared, and it's not and it ultimately 246 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: makes the product stuffer. 247 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 4: I think I think so too, you know. 248 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 6: I mean, and when I say that we were all 249 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 6: in the same room, we were we all had to 250 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 6: do background work. But you know, but also like you know, 251 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 6: even if I didn't talk in a scene, sometimes I 252 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 6: would still get a laugh because of my expression, And 253 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 6: I thought, like, this is just a great thing to trust. 254 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 6: So the process was just so interesting. And literally the 255 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 6: first season, Greg Daniels, our show runer, asked us to 256 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 6: bring real paperwork, so literally we were doing taxes because 257 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 6: you know, you wanted it to feel like it was 258 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 6: a real work environment, and so when the camera came 259 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 6: to you, you were already working. 260 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 4: You weren't like acting like you were working. 261 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 6: You were working. So that's like that was another thing 262 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 6: that sort of informed what was going on. So I 263 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 6: don't know, and I just you know, I'm one of 264 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 6: seven kids. I'm I'm I was born into an ensemble. 265 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: Realizing that, yeah, you and your twin you were the youngest, Yes. 266 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 4: The youngest of seven.

Win and I don't look alike. 268 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: I saw you said she's actually funnier or she's the 269 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: funny one. 270 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 4: It is. She is way funny than I'm for sure. 271 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 3: For sure, I have to use this opportunity to ask you. 272 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 3: And I don't know if this is a tough subject 273 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 3: to talk about, but I listened with intent to. I'm 274 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 3: gonna forget it. The guy who plays Kevin what is 275 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 3: his real name, Brian? Yes, I absolutely loved his like 276 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 3: in depth retrospective podcast that he put out a couple 277 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 3: of years ago, and it was kind of the first 278 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 3: time I heard people talk about when Steve left. So 279 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 3: it's just coming into my mind because you're talking about 280 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 3: like there were no secrets and that kind of thing. 281 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 3: But what was that moment, Like, was that a departure 282 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 3: from how it had been losing your patriarch? 283 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, totally. 284 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 6: It was extremely emotional, for sure, for everybody including Steve. 285 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 4: He didn't really want to go. 286 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, but I god, I just feel like I just. 287 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 4: Thought the writers handled it so well and it allowed us. 288 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 6: All to process together, which is, you know, unusual, So 289 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 6: it kind of felt like it was all sort of 290 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 6: happening in real time. But I'll never forget they Creed 291 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 6: and I were doing a satellite radio tour or TV tour. 292 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 4: Breast tour in the morning, and they had announced it 293 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 4: like that morning, and we didn't even know that Steve 294 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 4: was leaving. So I was like, uh, I think we 295 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 4: lost the feed. Like I can't asked a question about it. 296 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 4: I was like, I'm. 297 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 6: Sorry, I can't.

Yeah, you know, but yeah, 299 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 6: it was so emotional, and I don't know, I just 300 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 6: think everything evolves, and you know, good things come to 301 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 6: an end. 302 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 4: Unfortunately, TV does eventually end, except if you're on The Simpsons. 303 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 4: So yeah, it happened at some point. 304 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 3: But to me, and this is just my opinion, that's 305 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: just I'll never understand why they let him go. Like 306 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 3: you said, he didn't want to go, and it's just 307 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 3: we're kind of, you know, we're like all Hollywood. 308 00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 2: We're all experienced here. 309 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 3: That's just one of those Did somebody higher up just 310 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 3: make the dumbest decision in the world. 311 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 2: I don't get that. 312 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 6: I think so they didn't renew his contract.

You have 420 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 3: this incredible, unique experience of maintaining a friendship with a 421 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 3: group of co workers for well over a decade at 422 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 3: this point. 423 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 2: What advice do you have? 424 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 3: What have you all learned about how you stay in 425 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 3: touch and stay a family even from afar once that 426 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 3: thing that kept you together is over. 427 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 6: Well, I think you have to keep your expectations in 428 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 6: check because people get busy, their lives change. But I 429 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 6: think that if you can hold the space for them 430 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 6: with your heart and not you know, not have resentments 431 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 6: about their lack of availability. I think you know, you 432 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 6: have to. You have to have compassion for where everybody 433 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 6: is now because everybody's life changes. 434 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 4: It's just how it is. So you know, it's it's 435 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 4: kind of asking you. 436 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 6: To step up and be a little mature and realistic 437 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 6: and have compassion for yourself because I'm not in the 438 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 6: same space as I was. So yeah, and I think 439 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 6: just and also just rooting for each other and remembering 440 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 6: like comparison is the thief of joy. 441 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 4: You have to really remember. 442 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 6: That each of us has our own lane. We don't 443 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 6: get the same stuff. Even if you want what somebody 444 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 6: else has, that's you know, it's that's a that's a 445 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 6: lousy place to live.
