Ackman has been a thorn in CEO Lucian 27 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: Grange's side for a few years now. I suspect that 28 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: some of the artists on Universal's roster will have strong 29 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: thoughts about his pershing square taking over their life's work. 30 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: More to come on this, for sure.

Before we hear from day. 57 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: Here's a sense of No Kid Hungry's basic pitch to 58 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 2: its supporters. It focuses on something that's hard to deny, 59 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 2: the importance of feeding children, no matter where they are 60 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: or where they come from. No Kid Hungry was a 61 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 2: campaign launched in twenty ten by its parent organization, the 62 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: nonprofit Share Our Strength. It was designed to address the 63 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 2: problem using school infrastructure by building on existing support and resources. 64 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: Share Our Strength is active in Washington and state houses 65 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: in advocating for progressive anti hunger legislation. Jeff Bridges was 66 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: a spokesman for No Kid Hungry for a long time. 67 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 2: For a nation as wealthy as the United States, eradicating 68 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: child hunger is a very worthy and seemingly achievable goal 69 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: to pursue. 70 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 3: For our students to be successful at school, socially, emotionally, behaviorally, academically, 71 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 3: they need food. 72 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: That's the key to it. All children do so much 73 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 2: better in school if they've been given a meal. 74 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: When they go home at the end of the day, 75 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: you're not sure if they're going to have a dinner 76 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: or not, but at least when you know they come 77 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: to school, they're going to. 78 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 3: Eat every day at lunch, he would take one bite 79 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 3: of his sandwich, one bite of his fruit and put 80 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 3: it in his bag. Even his milk a drink in 81 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 3: the bag. A third grader was taking all of this 82 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 3: palm so that his sisters could have. That is just 83 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: something that I will never forget. 84 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: And now here's my conversation with the great Andre Day. 85 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 2: Andre Day, thank you so much for joining me to 86 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 2: talk about a great organization, No Kid Hungry. 87 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 4: Thank you for having me. 88 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 2: No Kid Hungry is very creative and they often have 89 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: big events that help bring attention to the issue of 90 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 2: chronic hunger. And on April eleventh, they are doing a 91 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 2: Night Out for No Kid Hungry event that you are 92 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 2: part of. So in addition to I'm sure a fabulous meal, 93 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 2: what are you looking forward to? 94 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 4: I know that the event will be amazing, and like 95 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 4: you said, they're very creative. I love the way they 96 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 4: integrate multiple worlds like music and you know, and just 97 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 4: food and culture, and how they're able to create these 98 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 4: these memorable moments. But I think what I'm looking forward 99 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 4: to most is what these memorable moments produce, which is 100 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 4: on the ground action, you know, I think that making 101 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 4: sure that kids have food and making sure that they 102 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 4: can sustain themselves. In Fai families can sustain right now, 103 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 4: I think is of the most importance. So I know 104 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 4: the event will beautiful, but I think everyone at the 105 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 4: event who is aware of this organization, including the organizers, 106 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 4: are most excited about the outcome. I'm really excited to 107 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 4: just you know, I've just been a newly newly a 108 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 4: fan of this organization. Since signing on to do this performance, 109 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 4: I've learned a lot more about them, and I love 110 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 4: that they organize two events like this and they make 111 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 4: sure that children are fed. But they also you know, 112 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 4: it's a national effort in a national organization, and so 113 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 4: I like that they work in all realms of culture 114 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 4: and of society and government to help people understand the 115 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 4: importance of making sure that that kids have access to food. 116 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: It's also one of the organizations that has really done 117 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 2: a lot to explain just how prevalent it is that 118 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 2: there are children out there in every classroom that go 119 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 2: to bed either hungry or much worse. And I think, 120 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 2: as you said, the awareness of these kinds of things 121 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 2: in addition to the fundraising, but just the awareness that 122 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: they're there is such an organization, how did you get 123 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,119 Speaker 2: recruited to be part of this event? 124 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 4: They reached out to my management and then they spoke 125 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 4: to me about it. I've always been this way, but 126 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 4: particularly now, it's even more imperative for me that, you know, 127 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 4: any charity that reaches out, I always want to look 128 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 4: up the organization. I want to look up how impactful 129 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 4: they've been, how effective they've been, and you know, the 130 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 4: people funding this, the organizers, you know. Once they looked 131 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 4: into the organization and vetted it for me, it was 132 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 4: really a no brainer because I was like, you know, 133 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 4: they're really putting their money and putting their manpower behind 134 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 4: what it is they believe. So it was pretty, like 135 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 4: I said, pretty standard. There's moments sometimes like this where 136 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 4: you go to do a gig and you're like, great, 137 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 4: this is amazing, I'm grateful, and then you get to 138 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 4: know the organization more deeply and you're like, great, now, 139 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 4: how do we expand and continue this relationship? And No 140 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 4: Kid Hungry is one of those organizations. 141 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: I'm sure you get a request a day, if not 142 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 2: to do things like that, what is your litmus test 143 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 2: for when you say yes? Right now? 144 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 4: I'm like my litmus test. I was like, I'm pretty 145 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 4: sure it's like ten pages long now. But I think 146 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 4: one of the huge things for me is impact. You know, 147 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 4: are they actually doing the work and do they actually 148 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 4: care about people? Because you know, it's so funny. I 149 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 4: read something earlier and while I'm appreciative, somebody had made 150 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 4: a comment that said, I think we can all agree, 151 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 4: you know, that kids should have food, and I was like, 152 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 4: we would be wrong to assume that. Unfortunately, we are 153 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 4: dealing with organizations or groups of people. I don't really 154 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 4: like to pars words, so don't have the conversation with 155 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 4: any cultural or historical context or any nuance to understand 156 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 4: that feeding your family or feeding kids is not as 157 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 4: simple as just like, well, parents should just do that, 158 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. So I for me, no 159 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 4: kid hungry actually knows how to have this conversation with 160 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 4: nuance and is actually doing the work, like I said, 161 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 4: not just on the ground, but also you know, politically, 162 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 4: to make sure that we can repeal taking away some 163 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 4: of these snap benefits for kids who rely on one 164 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 4: meal a day, you know. And so I think that 165 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 4: they're doing it in all areas, and that's probably what 166 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 4: I would say is my litmus test, and and are 167 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 4: you genuine? You know, it sounds really simple, but I 168 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 4: think that it is guided me pretty well and that 169 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 4: that matters to me because of my faith. I think 170 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 4: that so far it's been an okay lit mistest. 171 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: Totally and without going out on a tangent it it's 172 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 2: hard to believe that anybody in a position of power 173 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 2: to vote to feed hungry children could vote otherwise. The 174 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: choices that you make on these kind of policy decisions 175 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: really matter. Let me ask you, Andra, what's next for you? 176 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: What's on your play? You're always balancing acting and music 177 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 2: and probably other gigs. 178 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 4: Just in the spirit of the conversation that we're having, 179 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 4: is just more community organizing, you know. Twenty twenty six 180 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 4: obviously is a big year, so more community engagement, more 181 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 4: community organizing. But also I'm really excited we are working 182 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 4: on new music, so very excited about that. I have 183 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 4: not decided whether it's going to be a series of 184 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 4: EPs or a full album yet, but I'm finally getting 185 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 4: in the studio with Produc, who I've been friends with 186 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 4: for a while and we've been talking about working together 187 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 4: for a while. Like no ide Teris Martin. So very 188 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 4: excited about that. And then also, we just finished filming 189 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 4: the third season of Percy Jackson. So excited for people 190 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 4: to see that, because I'm actually a fan of the show, 191 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 4: even before I was actually cast to play a character 192 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 4: in the show. So excited about that. There's a few 193 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 4: other movie projects on the horizon that are similarly in 194 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 4: the spirit of what we've been talking about in this interview, 195 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 4: So you know, very very excited about those projects. 196 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 2: Well, we will stay tuned.
