Well, if I especially if I 31 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: get somebody who does them upet voice to maybe do 32 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: it in the background. Yeah, like a kermit, Hey, hey hey, 33 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: we're really off the river. We've really we've really gone 34 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: and taken a left. But I like it. Twig all right, 35 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: take it away with the first question that actually has 36 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: to do with this show and not the record. We're 37 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: harassing you to write for us, Hillary, go read it. Okay, 38 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: for any teenager watching the show today, what is the 39 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: main thing you would like them to take away from it? 40 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: I love that question. That's a good line. I think 41 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: it's like simplicity works. Yeah, in your life in creativity 42 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: and material that there's nothing wrong with complexity, and there 43 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: was certainly emotional complexity, but like you can enjoy your 44 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: life without all the electronics, you can you can feel 45 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: all your feelings without needing to send everything through a 46 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: text message. Sometimes talking to somebody in person is the 47 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: best thing to do. I just feel like there's a 48 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: simplicity about our show in comparison to the way teenagers 49 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: are living their lives right now with all the technology 50 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: that I just would love for them to embrace a 51 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: little bit more of maybe. You know what else for 52 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: me really comes up is communication, because when things go unsaid, 53 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: your brain will fill in the gaps. And the best 54 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 1: relationships on our show the relationships that people have come 55 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: to us for years and said I want a friendship 56 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: like that. Those come from communication. But I like what 57 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: you added in their joy, Like sometimes you just gotta 58 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: give it a beat, like if you're going to be 59 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: friends with people for twenty or thirty or forty years, 60 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: like sometimes everybody just needs a second. Give people a beat, 61 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: love them, and then talk to them, you know, stick, 62 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,839 Speaker 1: stick with it. I think I think all of that 63 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: is really important, and I think our show modeled that 64 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: really well. Sometimes we modeled crazy things like dogharts, but 65 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: sometimes communication, the communication is so right. Like I tell 66 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: Maria this all the time because I got her an 67 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: iPad and I don't she still doesn't have a phone. 68 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: But I have rules around the iPad and one of 69 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: them is you are not allowed to have like meaningful 70 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: conversations via text right now. When you're older, maybe you 71 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: can figure it out, but I mean I still struggle 72 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: with that. But but for her, age like to train 73 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: her brain to start having like emotional conversations on text, 74 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: which happens, like she'll get these messages from other girls 75 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: like why did you say that in class? And what 76 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: you know? And I'm like, they just say, I'll talk 77 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: to you tomorrow. Show up at school and talk to 78 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: them face to face because it's just so much better. 79 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: And I love that we did that. We did that, 80 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: we got bad at it later in life as humans, 81 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: I would say the reason the characters on our show 82 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: had such rich lives, Like they're fun to watch, right, 83 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: it's fun to live through them because they got involved. 84 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: You know, Brooke Davis was throwing prom and doing the 85 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: you know, designated driving thing. Haley. Yeah, they can joins 86 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: the cheerleading squad, right, it's out of her conference zone, 87 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: but she joins Lucas Scott gets off of that river 88 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: court and like joins in the school. Peyton doesn't have 89 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: a place. And so launch is this all ages thing 90 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: at Trick, you know, getting it and thought, yeah, I 91 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: mean getting involved is something that I think COVID really 92 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: messed up for a lot of kids because it was like, 93 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: there wasn't that natural passing of the baton, and so 94 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: it's almost like you just gotta jump in and even 95 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 1: if it's a club that you don't know if you're 96 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: gonna love it or not, like join that Spanish club, 97 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: Honey Guts against drunk driving, you know, like join the thing, 98 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: but just join. Stute observation, there's the fact that COVID 99 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: messed that up. I never thought about that, but I 100 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: think you're right. I think there's a lot of kids 101 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: that never got that sort of passed down to them 102 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: because that to year gap. Yeah, it was weird. Get 103 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: in there, all right. You know what I think about 104 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: a lot. I think about how crazy it is that 105 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: you know and you read it, you learn about this 106 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: in school, right, they say history repeats itself around every 107 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: hundred years. And I don't know if you guys have 108 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: thought about this, but thinking back to you know, the 109 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: big flu pandemic of nineteen eighteen, and you see all 110 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: the people isolated and you know, in their masks and 111 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: all the black and white photos, and I just think like, 112 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: oh man, it's been so hard for us, to your point, 113 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: to not be able to gather, and especially for kids. 114 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: And then I'm like, what did they do when they 115 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: couldn't FaceTime? You know, what did they do when they 116 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 1: couldn't be in school on zoom? Like damn? And it 117 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: makes me wonder I've never thought about this. We were there, 118 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: schools running drama clubs on zoom? Were kids able to 119 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: have any version of that? I don't know the answer, 120 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: but yes there were. I love the desire to be 121 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: resilient and the desire to figure out how to gather. 122 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: And my hope, hearing your observation, is that kids who 123 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: got out of that practice, who do as you said, joy, 124 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: feel a little more comfortable maybe on an iPad than 125 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: they do in person. I hope your parents are also 126 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: pushing them to get back together in person now because 127 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: they can, and to join the extra club to do 128 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: the after school extracurricular thing that you know is back 129 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: on this year because I think we're so lucky to 130 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: be more connected than ever. But I also think nothing 131 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: replaces face to face time with your people and with 132 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: your peers, and and that I think is where you 133 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: learn to communicate like that. It is where you learn 134 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: to be inspired by, you know, some group activity, the 135 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: puppy pile, raman school and just puppy piling with your friends. 136 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: I'm still puppy pile. It's my dream situation Marian days. 137 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: I love pulling up to school and watching her all 138 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: her friends are all climbing all over each other. Oh 139 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: that's so good. Cute. That was a good question. Okay, listen, 140 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: if you had a theme song that played every time 141 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: your character walked into a room, what would it be? 142 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I know what mine is. It's kind of 143 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: an obscure song. This is an obscure song. When we 144 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: were filming One Tree Hill, this biopic um documentary about 145 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: Harry Nielsen came out and he has written, like so 146 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: many songs you've heard, you just don't know that he's 147 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: who wrote them. And he has this song that's like 148 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: you break him. Ahart you break him Ahart, So you 149 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: and I that is Peyton Sawyer like it's obscure. It's 150 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: like acknowledging that I'm dying inside. And also like, god, 151 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: that is so funny. I don't think I've ever thought 152 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: of this before. But when you read the question, these 153 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: boots were made for walking in my head? Yeah, and 154 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: then I was like, why am I thinking about that? 155 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: For brook? And then I was like, honestly, it's not 156 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: not a no little Nancy Sinatra. Yeah, it's just like 157 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: a little sassy lad the American Royalty. Okay, come into it. 158 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: I love it. I'm probably gonna stick with I think 159 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: I said Casey Musgraves the last time, and she came 160 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: to mind again for that reason. But I think I'm 161 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: gonna say a cup of tea, okay. When I think 162 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: of Hayley, she was so confident, you know, even though 163 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: she had kind of some neurotic insecurities, there was a 164 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: confidence about her that was like, I know, I'm not 165 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: everybody's cup of tea. Like it's okay, you know, we're 166 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: not we're not all gonna you're not You're not always 167 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: gonna like me, and I'm always gonna like you. But 168 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: she was confident in who she was. Yeah, and I 169 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: like that. I think it's cool. Yeah.

Oh yeah, oh gosh. 173 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: I feel like he's so like something so classic, like 174 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: Tom Petty or Bruce Springsteen like, okay, such, I don't know, 175 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? That's what comes to mind 176 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: for me immediately, is that you're a and those sounds. Yeah. 177 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: I mean I think of the marriage between Haley and Nathan, 178 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: and I think of that Eric Church song Wrecking Ball. 179 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm talking about? That song so perverted, 180 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: but it's like a husband and wife like hook up song. 181 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: You guys has great horror energy. Oh joy, put that 182 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: on Hey, I'm putting it on my list. I wish 183 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: I had a better answer for that.

I'm in 256 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: a little neighborhood book club, so that's fine. And yeah, 257 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: it's a beautiful um telling of a little blind girl 258 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: in World War Two and she's in Germany and there's 259 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: a boy that she be friends who gets recruited into 260 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: the Nazi army. And it's just like really putting on 261 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: glasses to look at how things might have felt from 262 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: the other side, and and what it looks like to 263 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: be confronted with ideas that you don't agree with, but 264 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: you go along with it anyway because it's just too 265 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: scary to say I don't believe that, um. And and 266 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: then what how this little girl survives? There's it's it 267 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: goes back and forth between the two stories. And then 268 00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: how this little girl survives and actually thrive even though 269 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: everything around her is falling apart. She can hear it, 270 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: but she can't see it, and so she's got this 271 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: whole world constructed in her mind that she lives in 272 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: and it's just it's really beautiful. When did that come out? 273 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: Is that new? I feel like it was maybe fourteen 274 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: or sixteen, I'm not sure. And then the audiobook I'm 275 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: halfway through right now is Lessons in Biology or less sorry, 276 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: lessons in Chemistry, which is also great, and it's about 277 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: a female chemist in the nineteen sixties and it's still 278 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: the crazy that happens to her, but it's so well 279 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: right to imagine that was a weird scene. Yeah, yeah, 280 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: but she well, she turns her chemistry knowledge because they 281 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: just won't let her climb the ranks and do what 282 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: she's capable of doing. So she turns it into cooking 283 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: and like becomes this host of a cooking show in America. 284 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: But they flash back to this whole story of her 285 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: life and it's great. Sweet, So I recommend, I recommend. 286 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: Great question. I love it. Okay, we have looking back. 287 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: Do you think there was something your character did or 288 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: said that was ahead of its time? Well, hm hmm, 289 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: not really. I mean I still stand by the fact 290 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: that Burke Davis invented uber feels ahead of its time. God, 291 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,959 Speaker 1: you know the guy that like eventually opened that company. 292 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: He watched our show in college. I bent money on it. 293 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: He sat there and cried with all the raps. You 294 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: just cry, um Peyton ahead of her time. I don't know, man, 295 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like I feel like it was 296 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: true to my high school experience. I just hung out 297 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 1: with my friend Marla the other day and she and 298 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 1: I just became friends in the last few years. She's 299 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: a new friend. She'd never seen the show, and we 300 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: were hanging out and she's like, I watched the first 301 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: season of your show and I was like, you weirdo, 302 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: why would you do that? She's like, because I I 303 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: feel like it's you right, Like are you Payton? Were 304 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: you Peyton? In high school? Was that real? And it 305 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: was all the questions about like sexuality and place and 306 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: gender and like what do I do with myself? Like 307 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: all of that was my experience, And so I don't 308 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: think it was ahead of its time, but it was timely. 309 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: That's cool. Yeah, I don't know, the only thing I 310 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: could think of is just Haley being a pregnant girl. 311 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: In high school, that nobody shamed for being pregnant in 312 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: high school? Right, that was kind of cool. Yeah, okay. 313 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 1: In fact, we all like throw baby showers and it 314 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: was kind of fun. I know, I know totally. It's like, okay, 315 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 1: I guess that's that's a nice world to him. Do 316 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: any teachers ever stop Haley and be like, oh my god, 317 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: are you okay? No? Never, that's wild, all right, it's 318 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: really wild that everyone just acts like it's totally normal. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, 319 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: Well it's because she was married that made it okay, 320 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: so suddenly everybody, well, you know, it's another that's a 321 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: conversation for another day. But what's the line from oh 322 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: brother about he's bouta fad? Yeah, Haley whatever. Regardless, it 323 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: does seem like a that's a nice world to dream 324 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: of where a girl could make whatever choice she wanted 325 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: and not get shamed for it either way. Yeah, just 326 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: be supported. It'll be nice if only poor Rachel had 327 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 1: had that. Hey, thanks for listening.
