00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,119

28
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: you know, kind of maybe that first spark of like wow,

29
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: I'm actually this is something that I like or that

30
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: I'm good at, or how did you find yourself kind

31
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: of falling down the rabbit hole of social media? Was

32
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: there a beginning?

33
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: Do that?

34
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: What do you think?

35
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: I mean, there was a beginning, but it's so hard

36
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 2: to like, No, it's actually quite easy to pinpoint when

37
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: it was. The start was it was COVID and like, okay,

38
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: I grew up my whole life playing soccer, and so

39
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 2: the very athletic background. I played just about every sport,

40
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 2: but whenever soccer wasn't season, that was priority.

41
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 1: And you started when you were a kid, imagine like.

42
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: Three, since I could since I could stand. Yeah, so

43
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 2: that was my passion.

44
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 3: That was my love.

45
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 2: That's what I wanted to do. There was really no

46
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 2: plan B in that sense, but it was more, Yeah,

47
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 2: that's just what I wanted to do. That's where my

48
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 2: heart was. My dad was also a coach of my

49
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 2: local high schools growing up, so he had definitely some

50
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 2: influence on that.

51
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: Here of course, of course, was he a soccer player

52
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: as well? I mean was he was?

53
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: He grew up more baseball, funny enough, but then he

54
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 2: fell into the coaching and you know then has been

55
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: coaching the local He just retired this year from coaching,

56
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 2: but he's coaching for just over thirty years.

57
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: That is such like a noble amazing thing because I'm

58
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 1: sure he was a great coach.

59
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

60
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: Man, the kind of influence that that can have on kids,

61
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: you know, particularly if it's if it's a positive thing,

62
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: if it's an encouraging thing. And I had that experience

63
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: when I was growing up, you know, when I was

64
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 1: like the ten eleven, twelve, thirteen, and we had a

65
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: coach he just was he was kind of like that

66
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: tough but compassionate. So you'd work really hard, but he

67
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: always like would give you a kind of a hug,

68
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: you know around your shoulder pads.

69
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

70
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was really important.

71
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: I think a coach and a parent in my case

72
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 2: that can tiptoe on that line and can really yeah,

73
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: be that guy that pushes you but then also will

74
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 2: be the first one to hug you after a loss.

75
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: And so I think he was that for me, and

76
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 2: it's amazing because my I come from like a family

77
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,399
Speaker 2: of educators. Funny enough, both my parents are teachers as well,

78
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 2: and my sister. Both my sisters got their degrees and

79
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 2: teaching oh oh wow, yeah, and one of them's pursuing

80
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 2: it now. The other one did a year of it

81
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 2: and was like not for me, which what grade was

82
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 2: she teaching?

83
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 3: She wanted to teach English high school.

84
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: Oh so there was not like that's tough all that

85
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: to say.

86
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 2: March March or twenty twenty was when we kind of

87
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 2: got the blast email when I was walking at campus

88
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: and just we all looked at our phones, like I

89
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: remember this, like I remember it so vividly because it

90
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: felt like a scene out of a movie where everyone

91
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: looked at their phones like we got like an amber

92
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: alert or something.

93
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

94
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 2: It looked around and we were like, you guys getting

95
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 2: this too? Am I getting pranked?

96
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 3: And it was like need to evacuate campus.

97
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: I first thought was we're getting pranked here or something

98
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: was happening. Yeah, Like it didn't.

99
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 2: Feel real, it was, yeah, and it was so out

100
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 2: of the blue, and I just from remember being like

101
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 2: all right, well, surely this will blow over in a week,

102
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: not really knowing what to expect. Yeah, of course not

103
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 2: and in hindsight, not realizing that it would be a

104
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 2: two year thing.

105
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: So you were on track playing soccer at school, yes,

106
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: and you were like, this is going to be my

107
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: life and it's a D one school I think, right, yeah,

108
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: which is pretty intense. Yeah, And I imagined the training,

109
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: which was pretty I mean, that's discipline.

110
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 2: You got to have this truly, And yeah, I think,

111
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 2: like I said, it was a mix of my dad

112
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 2: kind of being that influence on me growing up, and

113
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: then a culmination of all my coaches. I think from

114
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 2: being a kid. I loved it, like I loved the

115
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: hard work. I loved the competitiveness. I loved every training

116
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: feeling like nothing's given and it has to be earned.

117
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 2: And I think I've definitely, in ways that may or

118
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,239
Speaker 2: may not be healthy, have translated that to my life

119
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: now without having the.

120
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 1: Well I'm curious about it. I'm curious about that because

121
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: if you grew up with that kind of discipline, we're

122
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: talking about social media and the kind of demands that

123
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: that makes on your time, I can only imagine. I mean,

124
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: I'm just scratching the surface here, and I'm finding it's

125
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: a you know, It's a not a full time job

126
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: in my case, but it takes a lot of time

127
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: and energy, and not just from me, but the people

128
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: that I work with, some of whom are here in

129
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: the room with me right now, and they work hard,

130
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, just to sort of stay current and

131
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: relevant and you know, in the world. So I was

132
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 1: saying as you were talking about that that discipline that

133
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: you have for playing soccer, because it's you know, it's

134
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: every day, yeah, and it's focused. You kind of have

135
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,239
Speaker 1: to bring that, seems like into this world of social media,

136
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: which you you've created this, I mean, you've got you've

137
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: covered so many different things and you've done many many

138
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: different things already. Thinking of sway, of course, I mean

139
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: that was living your life, and you know, I mean

140
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,559
Speaker 1: it's that was a little different than living in a dorm.

141
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: I don't know, I mean there were similarities, but yeah,

142
00:05:59,480 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 3: it was.

143
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, if that was leaning towards the question of like

144
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 2: what was that like, it was my experience of living

145
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 2: in a it was a frat house, and it was

146
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 2: very much that. And then you throw in a lot

147
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 2: more money than we should have been making us.

148
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, very very helpful. Exactly make good choices exactly.

149
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: It was just everything was like just heightened at that time.

150
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 2: The drama that if it were happening at any other

151
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 2: high school or any other college in or any town

152
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 2: or whatever it is, the drama that would happen between

153
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 2: our house and the other house, and just like that

154
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 2: world and that time of Creators, everything was just so heightened.

155
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 2: Like someone would you know, people would date similar people

156
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: and then it would it was just stuff that happens,

157
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 2: but because we were in the spotlight, it was just

158
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 2: like the biggest news ever. And then all of a sudden, Yeah,

159
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 2: going from a dorm room and like there's no training

160
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: for that, and there's no like preparation you can do

161
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 2: to all of a sudden like be in la and

162
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: have like seeing like glares of camera lenses from like

163
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: paparazzi and it's what do you want from me? Yeah? Yeah,

164
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 2: it was.

165
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 3: It was pretty It was pretty surreal.

166
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: And that did you handle because I know, I mean,

167
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: you've you've spoken about you're pretty shy person, you know

168
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: what I mean. In your life, you know what I mean.

169
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: But at the same time, here you are, did you

170
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: just jump in and say, yeah, what the heck was

171
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: try this was it one of the just like sounds fun.

172
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess it's funny. We've been kind of like

173
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 2: going back to COVID when it first kind of happened,

174
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 2: and then the pandemic hit and we got sent home.

175
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 2: I went back to Arizona, which is where I'm from,

176
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 2: and then purely out of boredom, just started posting on

177
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 2: social media and just started. It started with the silly

178
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: little uh a little bet with my sister being an

179
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: annoying younger brother. I was like, I bet I can

180
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 2: get more followers than you on TikTok and she was like,

181
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: I don't do it for that, and I was like,

182
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 2: I'm going to do it for that. And so there

183
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: was some out of body experiences that I was like,

184
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 2: in hindsight, like what right, what led me to posting that?

185
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: Or I don't know, it was when you.

186
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: Spoke about waking up one morning and suddenly you had

187
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 1: like twenty thousand something.

188
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: Just yeah this that day that I posted that video,

189
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 2: I posted at night and then woke up and it

190
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: literally twenty thousand followers, And it was did you think.

191
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: Of like, oh, I'm going to do something like another

192
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: influence out there or somebody that you had seen or

193
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: you said, oh, I kind of like this and maybe

194
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,839
Speaker 1: I'll do something in the same vein or for.

195
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 2: That first video, I don't know what I was. I

196
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: think I looked up just I don't know. I did

197
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 2: my research and I looked at what other people my

198
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 2: age were doing, and you know, guys that looked similar

199
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 2: to me. I was like, what's working out there? And

200
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 2: I was like, I can copy this, And the thought

201
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 2: of my coach potentially seeing this, my teammates potentially seeing this,

202
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 2: like didn't even cross my mind. And so it was

203
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: just like, yeah, I'm gonna do this and set up

204
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 2: my phone used like my sister's laptop as like my

205
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 2: ring light like low, hey, less is more in that sense,

206
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 2: and so I just I think it was a I

207
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 2: think it was a Meg Thee Stallion song featuring right

208
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 2: Oh that's right, yeah, yeah, yeah, as my first video,

209
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 2: and it was very uh. I think I threw in

210
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 2: some really bad transitions in there, but something happened and

211
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 2: something worked.

212
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,839
Speaker 1: Well. Yeah, the camera loves you, first of all. That's

213
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 1: a nice thing. That's you never know until you sort

214
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 1: of get out there, and you never know how is

215
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: it going to translate? Through the lens. So that's that's

216
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: that's a cool story.

217
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's pretty true.

218
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: That's that's pretty cool. So you're in Portland, you were

219
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: at school, you went back, you went back to Arizona

220
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: to kind of wait out COVID thing, and then did

221
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: you sort of say at some point, hey, I gotta

222
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 1: go to l A or was there a yeah, back

223
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: to Portland or how did how how did that work?

224
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 2: Yeah? So fast forward from that video from that night

225
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 2: three months and you know this, this is gonna sound ridiculous,

226
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 2: but like four or five million followers later in those

227
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: three months, which.

228
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: Is that's incredible.

229
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 3: It was surreal.

230
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 2: But it also again if it was just a number

231
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 2: on a phone, because I didn't know, it was so

232
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 2: foreign to me, Like this concept and just like seeing

233
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 2: how that would translate to real life didn't even like

234
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 2: apply to me yet.

235
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 3: And so it was when I started.

236
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 2: To receive emails and dms from brands other influencers at

237
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 2: the time and being like, Yo, we should work together,

238
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 2: or Yo, we should collab, you should come hang out

239
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 2: with us. It was just like this thing that was

240
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 2: so I was like, look, I'm just waiting for that

241
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 2: email to come back to school, like I just want

242
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 2: play soccer. And then that email never came and it

243
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 2: really just felt like this lightning in a bottle moment

244
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 2: and I don't know, all you have is your instinct,

245
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 2: and I had this weird feeling in me that I

246
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 2: was like, all right, well soccer is going to be there.

247
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 2: Like I'm not all of a sudden just gonna lose

248
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 2: all my ability over the span of a month if

249
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 2: I decide to go out to LA and give this

250
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 2: a shot. Yeah, And that's what I did, and yeah,

251
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 2: it was pretty It was pretty surreal like that. I

252
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 2: remember that first month in LA in June to kind

253
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 2: of like test the waters, and not even not even

254
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 2: with the thought of I'm.

255
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 3: Going to live out here and I'm gonna do this thing.

256
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:31,719
Speaker 2: It was more of just like I'll go out there

257
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 2: for like a week, hang out with these guys that

258
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 2: have been texting me basically being like you should come

259
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 2: over and like we should make videos.

260
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: So there's one that they just sort of said you, Hey,

261
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: whence you come out. Did you like consult with anybody

262
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: or like, oh who should parents? Yeah, I mean that's

263
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: the best, right, Yeah.

264
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 2: I was like, hey, mom, dad, like there's some guys

265
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: on TikTok that are like some of the most fallowed

266
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 2: guys in the app, and they want to hang out

267
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 2: with me, like should and were they like, yeah, they're

268
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 2: like pumped the brakes, so what do you mean? And

269
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 2: I was like, look, I don't know what I mean.

270
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: But it feels like a good thing and they supporting you.

271
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: And ultimately I had to kind of go through the

272
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 2: channels here and I had to.

273
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 3: I was like, guys, is there an.

274
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 2: Adult I think they're all early twenties. I was like,

275
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 2: is there an adult round when you guys have a

276
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 2: manager or something my parents can talk to to like

277
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 2: exactly and.

278
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,439
Speaker 1: Somebody with a prefrontal cortex exactly.

279
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 2: Okay, I developed in there, and fortunately there was, and

280
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: they spoke to him, and who they spoke to on

281
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 2: the phone is now my manager to this day, wow,

282
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 2: which is great. So yeah, he basically eased their nerves

283
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 2: and he was like, look, your son is doing really

284
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 2: well on this app. And I was like I was

285
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 2: sitting hearing this and I was like, doing really well.

286
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 2: Like I'm posting stupid videos. It's strictly out of like

287
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 2: building a hole.

288
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, like I was.

289
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 2: All these videos were fueled by my boredom during COVID,

290
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 2: and I think that's where I don't know if I

291
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 2: was a consumer, I guess that's where the authenticity shined.

292
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 3: Through because there was no niche.

293
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 2: There was no like one video I'd be dancing in

294
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 2: the bathroom shirtless, and then one would be baking with

295
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 2: my mom, and then one would be soccer video and

296
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 2: it was just all over the place and so and

297
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 2: then I like love to dabble with like the acting

298
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 2: audios and stuff like that. Yeah, So like I think

299
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 2: I found a weird love for that through.

300
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: Well it was super authentic. Yeah, which I think that's

301
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: the one thing that I've learned during this process is

302
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: if you're just yourself, you know, Yeah, there's just really

303
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: people respond to that. Yeah, either they recognize a kindred

304
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: spirit or they just appreciate the fact that you're being here.

305
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: I am you know, kind of works on all of that.

306
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: I look great, you look great, you know what I mean,

307
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: You're like, this is meeah and putting it out there.

308
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: It sounds like it's a very creative process for you.

309
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: Was it something that was there other thing that pointed

310
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: towards that When you were younger, did you have like

311
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: a creative side or you know.

312
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 2: It's funny because I've recently been thinking about this because,

313
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 2: like I said, my parents and my whole family are

314
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 2: educators and I ironically dropped out of So that's kind

315
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 2: of exactly there you go. But it was to pursue this,

316
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 2: and it was I don't know, it's not even that

317
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 2: anyone in my family was like overly creative. It's not

318
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,719
Speaker 2: even in hindsight that I was. It was more they

319
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,319
Speaker 2: instilled this like curiosity into me. I think being teachers,

320
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 2: they like I never want to stop learning, and the

321
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 2: moment that I mean the day that I assume that

322
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: I have it all figured out, I need someone to

323
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 2: come and slap me because it's far from the truth.

324
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 3: And I just love learning.

325
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 2: I love being curious, and I love because I don't

326
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 2: know what's the latter, Like why would I want to be?

327
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I see that. And because you said, you know,

328
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: you post all these different things and curiosity, I think

329
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: is they think it keeps us young. I mean, for

330
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: goodness sake. I mean you are young, h but it's

331
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: a thing whereas you get older and older, you just

332
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: you want to keep learning. All the people that I successful,

333
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: people older, successful, even middle aged anywhere, are all curious.

334
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: So you know, you can be eighty five years old

335
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: and you're still curious about something and you stay young.

336
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: And it's kind of funny enough. It's why I'm here

337
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: doing this podcast, which is something unexpected and unusually. I'm

338
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: curious about a generation that I don't know that much about,

339
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: so nowhere here chatting about it, and you're telling me

340
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: what it's like to be an influencer. Would you just

341
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: call yourself an influence or what would you say? I

342
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: don't know, Maybe that's not the right.

343
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 3: Is there ever a right word?

344
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: Like, I don't know.

345
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 2: I think I've literally had talks with my with my

346
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: publicist about this. When people ask my title, what do

347
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 2: I give them? Because I mean, I guess that's a

348
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 2: good thing because I like to just do different things.

349
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: So it's not like I hope it's not an egotistical thing,

350
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 2: but it's more of just like, like, I don't know,

351
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 2: maybe a creator and a.

352
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: Creator is a good word that I was going to

353
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: say that or and with that course comes to a responsibility.

354
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: But I feel like you're really tapped into that. Maybe

355
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: that's part of the jig from a family of educators,

356
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: have responsibility to what you put out there. You know,

357
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: it's fun, maybe there's something you're something or showing something

358
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: or you know, but you I think I feel like

359
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: you you lead by example, you know, and I think

360
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: that's that's that's the strongest way to lead honestly. Yeah,

361
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: you know, you know, I watched you cooking videos. I'm

362
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: a I like to cook as well. Love it is

363
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: that your mom, dad, sister is your own thing.

364
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 2: I mean, they're gonna kill me neither.

365
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 3: To be honest, I don't.

366
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: Have them make dinner. No no, no, no, okay.

367
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 3: Well, funny enough.

368
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 2: Growing up, my dad every every once in a blue

369
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 2: moon would hop on the grill and it was like

370
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 2: one of my favorite nights because I love grilled food

371
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, and my mom, I mean, bless her heart,

372
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 2: she was not the best cook.

373
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: And she knows. We have that in comment.

374
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 3: But I don't know.

375
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 2: I think that that came later in life, because I

376
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 2: don't think I wasn't exactly whipping it up in my

377
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 2: dorm room in Portland either, and I wasn't doing that

378
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 2: at home, and so I think it honestly came when

379
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 2: I started to live on my own. Yeah, the uber

380
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 2: eats apps started to kind of run up, and I

381
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 2: was like, yet, I gotta cut back on this and

382
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 2: maybe learn how to cook a little. And so I've

383
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 2: really enjoyed it, and I've almost kind of like romanticized

384
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 2: cooking at home and like it's kind of a nice

385
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 2: therapeutic thing that I like to like set up.

386
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: Like meditation, I think for sure, completely completely takes your

387
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: time and focus.

388
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it does. Like I said, it's fun just like

389
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 2: romanticizing it and just kind of like doing it. And

390
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 2: it's like this like self care that you can kind

391
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 2: of do that these little things that you can do

392
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 2: to help better yourself tomorrow. And like, yeah, I'm big

393
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 2: on that. And it's not that everything in life, because

394
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 2: there's that I'm constantly playing Devil's Advocate with myself with everything,

395
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 2: trying to always look at like two sides of a

396
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 2: coin of like, all right, well I need to eat

397
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 2: super clean because tomorrow, like myself will be thanking me,

398
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 2: et cetera. But then I'm like, okay, well, not everything

399
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 2: that I eat needs to be like for betterment, like

400
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 2: you can give a little and so yeah, I found

401
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 2: myself doing that quite a lot with just like mundane

402
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: things in life. I'm like, not everything needs to be

403
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,959
Speaker 2: this stress on, like am I going to regret it tomorrow?

404
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 2: Et cetera.

405
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: And so you have a war, a little bit of

406
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,719
Speaker 1: a war. I don't know. I'm OCD for sure, and

407
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: I battle that all the time. Yeah, decisions, you know

408
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: what I mean? And is it the right decision?

409
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 2: Is just good?

410
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: It's just bad? And sometimes you just go, I don't

411
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: want to I don't want to battle anymore. Exactly go forward,

412
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: you know, exactly did you think about everything? And I

413
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: also think too. I mean, I don't know if it

414
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,439
Speaker 1: comes out in the posting that you do, but you know,

415
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: there's a perfectionist thing that I have and I've had

416
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 1: to really just let that go. Thank you to my

417
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: team really help me. And they're like, say, it's great, Yeah,

418
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: let it be. And I think in some ways that's

419
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: what people want to see. They want to see the

420
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: you know, not that everything's perfect. You know, you just

421
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: have fun with it, you know.

422
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. There is almost this like responsibility to make your

423
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 2: life seem glamorous or in ways like with the filter

424
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 2: on it. And I've learned to kind of just peel

425
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,160
Speaker 2: peel that back, and I've almost learned that the more

426
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 2: I feel that like back, the better it seems.

427
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, like yes, things can still be.

428
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 2: Curated, but like not in like a perfected yea, it's

429
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 2: like this controlled.

430
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,199
Speaker 1: Well, I think they may. I think you're you're in

431
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: this process and I know acting is something that you're

432
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: pursuing heavily, and that what you describe is exactly what

433
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: you do as an actor. Right, you start pulling off

434
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: these layers of this person of yourself and you start

435
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: showing things maybe not so proud of, but there are

436
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: things that are part of the human experience, which I think, Yeah,

437
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 1: it's just it's this process and then getting to the

438
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: point where you can actually go, Okay, you may see

439
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: some things in me that you're not going to like,

440
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: but you know, within the confines of the character, that's

441
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: who this person is and have no judgment on it.

442
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 1: So this is just who this person is and that's

443
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: what I'm playing, you know, And I think as you

444
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: go on this journey which you're on, I just encourage

445
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 1: you to continue to do that, to pull back that stuff,

446
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 1: you know, because it's that's the gold.

447
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 2: Really, Yeah, no, that's I mean that's really well put.

448
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,360
Speaker 2: It kind of goes back to the never stop learning

449
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 2: kind of mantra of it all. It's like, I feel

450
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 2: like I'm constantly just exploring things, whether it's about myself,

451
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 2: whether it's about a character, and like really embracing it

452
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 2: and figuring out, like why is it that I'm this

453
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 2: way or the character is that way? And so I

454
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 2: think there's yeah, there's a lot to unpackt there. Yeah,

455
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 2: I think it's fun to do that.

456
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the journey. You're talking earlier about something and

457
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: I think about the frat stuff, and I remember thinking

458
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: part of what I was also in a frat for

459
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: a short period of time, which I wasn't really ready for.

460
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 1: But it was good. It was a good experience where

461
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: that was at the University of Washington. Okay, yeah, I

462
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 1: was a beta up there. Amazing, it was really Yeah,

463
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 1: it is amazing because you don't look at me. I'm like,

464
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 1: he doesn't look like a beta to me. But anyway,

465
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 1: they let me in somehow. But I don't think I

466
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: was ready for I don't think it was I could

467
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 1: handle it funny enough. And then I was thinking about

468
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: the team being on a team sport as soccer as

469
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: a team sport. And then you were talking about the

470
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 1: experience of being in with Sway and with your group,

471
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 1: and I feel like it's something that as an actor

472
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: I really enjoy. I enjoy the the group effort. I

473
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: enjoy having partners, you know, around, and we're this little team,

474
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 1: this little band of people, you know, and that, and

475
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: we're like the circus, you know what I mean. It's

476
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: like everyone's working together for like a greater a greater good,

477
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 1: you know, a better a better thing. We're trying to

478
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: create something special, you know, and I really love that.

479
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's something you share as you know,

480
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 1: you talked about of course your film on to B Yeah, yeah, yeah,

481
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: Sideline exactly, and there's a new one to Yes. I

482
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: don't know if that was something the experience of that

483
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: working together with crew and actors and everything with something

484
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,360
Speaker 1: that you really responded.

485
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 2: No, it's actually crazy. You took the words exactly right

486
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 2: out of my mouth. That is something that I mean

487
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 2: because when I first kind of felt like acting as

488
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 2: something that I'd like to explore, I was was kind

489
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,719
Speaker 2: of a naive, delusional thought of mine that I was like, oh, well,

490
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 2: people seem to like me on this small screen, right,

491
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 2: maybe that'll translate to a big screen, right, And like

492
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 2: it was part of that, and it was almost this

493
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 2: like liberating thing of like I'm a little tired sometimes

494
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 2: of being Noah Beck. Like it's like like I want

495
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 2: to be someone else. I want to live in someone

496
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 2: else's shoes, and like maybe there will be something that

497
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: I enjoy about that process. And honestly, like call it ego,

498
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 2: ego or whatever, but I was like, and yeah, the

499
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 2: the ring of being a movie star has got a

500
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 2: nice like shit to it. I was like, that's a

501
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 2: cool title. But all that to say, like I did

502
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 2: what I know how I'm wired. I was just like,

503
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 2: all right, well I got to become a student to

504
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 2: this and I got a train at it. So it

505
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,640
Speaker 2: was a mix of like what my parents instilled into

506
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 2: me and then the athletic background of like I'm gonna

507
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 2: work my ass off and continue to explore this thing

508
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 2: that I know nothing about, Like I didn't grow up

509
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 2: doing theater, and so there was like this chip on

510
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 2: my shoulder to consume everything and just be a sponge

511
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 2: because I know nothing about this and so talking to

512
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 2: people like yourself and just people that are experienced in

513
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 2: this space. I'm like, I love hearing their experience because

514
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 2: what I've learned about it is that it's so not

515
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 2: one size fits all and everyone has their own process.

516
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 2: But yeah, that is word for word what I fell

517
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,239
Speaker 2: in love with it. It was purely the collaboration. I

518
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 2: was like, oh, this is what I've been missing for

519
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 2: because social media.

520
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: As you know, you and the camera, you know, yeah,

521
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: it's it.

522
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 2: Can be as lonely or as collaborative as you make it.

523
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 2: And yeah, but with a movie, it takes a village

524
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 2: and it takes like I just loved it. I fell

525
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 2: in love with everyone coming together and all for that

526
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 2: final product. Yeah.

527
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I like about it too.

528
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,199
Speaker 2: Loved it. You know what's really funny. I get this

529
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 2: question in the past month like three or four times.

530
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 2: Like I got chirped the other day on like on

531
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 2: the street, this group of like I think it was

532
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 2: from young like baseball team. I was walking in like

533
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 2: Manhattan Beach like with one of my friends, right, and

534
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 2: they were all like renegade for us, And I was like,

535
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 2: come on, and I'm like, are we not past this?

536
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 2: But well, you know what's really funny and like there's

537
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 2: you can. My digital footprint is insane, So like good

538
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 2: luck finding it, but also like you won't because I've

539
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 2: actually never done the Renegade whatever. You couldn't find it.

540
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 2: There is no I've never done the the best it was,

541
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 2: it was slightly behind. It was slightly before my time.

542
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 2: Like I think it was like a really trending dance

543
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 2: like on right around that time, like May or April

544
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 2: or May of twenty twenty, and so it was yeah,

545
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 2: so it was right. Yeah, I wasn't exactly doing a

546
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 2: ton of dances when I was back home, and I

547
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 2: think I started to dance more and do just like

548
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 2: fun ones with like the Sway Boys and so this

549
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:01,479
Speaker 2: was like azy TikTok and so like he was not

550
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 2: doing the Renegade and so like by the time I

551
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 2: came to La, there were other dances, but there are

552
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 2: other Renegade is.

553
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 3: Very complicated, crazy ones.

554
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've tried dances. I've tried.

555
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 3: You've done some dances.

556
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: This is a disaster. That's okay, that's okay, but that's

557
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: part of the fun. It's good things rise the top

558
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:19,719
Speaker 1: and things that are not so good. It's like what

559
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:20,919
Speaker 1: I do in my dancing.

560
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, all that matters is that you're having fun.

561
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean at the end of the day, yes,

562
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 2: exactly exactly. How are you finding it? Like being on

563
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 2: social media and doing the podcast?

564
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: Like, I am really enjoying it really, Yeah, just having

565
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: you here having a conversation. You know, I've been doing this,

566
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: I've I've got a few under my belt, really and

567
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: I didn't know how I was going to react, but

568
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: I'm I am thoroughly enjoying it. I always say, you know,

569
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: I know, like my heroes, people that I followed, I

570
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 1: was coming up as an actor, you know, I was

571
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: looking at Marlon Brando. I was even looking at James

572
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: Dean and Cliff some of the older and I was

573
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 1: I was focused on theater. Yeah, so that was kind

574
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: of where I was going. Yeah, I don't know what's coming,

575
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: you know, generations behind you know what I mean, that's

576
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: the people that are coming up and the waves that

577
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: are coming. I see names and I'm like, I don't

578
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: know who these people are. Yeah, like you know, I

579
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: should I can have broaden my my understanding of things. Said,

580
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: let's let's look and see and talk with people that

581
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 1: are creatives that are coming from a from another time,

582
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: you know, and figure out hear their story and what's important.

583
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: Especially with the advent of social media now it's such

584
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: as such a huge impact on everything and how it's

585
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: being used by the people that actually grew up with it.

586
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: You know, you have a facility with it. Yeah, I

587
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 1: don't necessarily have, but I'm trying to learn. Yeah, it

588
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: goes back to learning.

589
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 2: I was just about to out. I was just going

590
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 2: to say, like, yeah, even like it doesn't matter how

591
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 2: old you are, it's like you just can never be

592
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 2: so stagnant in your ways, and I think it's really

593
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 2: cool that you're doing.

594
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: This, and it's like thank you.

595
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, And having listened to a few of the episodes,

596
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 2: like I love Dylan O'Brien.

597
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: Like he's great.

598
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, never met him. I'm just a big fan of

599
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 2: his work and.

600
00:26:58,520 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: I hate him absolutely.

601
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 2: You guys had such a good report. He's awesome, and

602
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 2: like being a fan of his work via via movies

603
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 2: or whatever. And there's some other interviews that I've seen

604
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 2: of his that I'm like, it seems like a cool

605
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: guy off off set as well. But having listened to

606
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 2: your guys interview, I'm like, oh, this just confirms like,

607
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 2: it's cool when you get a little bit more of

608
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 2: an insider on some of these people. But I feel

609
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 2: that i'm a little too. I think there are some

610
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 2: people that if they want to, they can know me

611
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,199
Speaker 2: better than I know myself via online because I just

612
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 2: share so much. Everything is out there. Everything is out there,

613
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 2: and I think, yeah, I'm coming up at a different

614
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 2: time where social media you can choot pick and choose

615
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,199
Speaker 2: what you share, but I've just chose to be an

616
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 2: open book online and so yeah, pretty much everything about

617
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 2: me is online.

618
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 1: It's pretty amazing when you think about it. It's scary, yeah,

619
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 1: but it's different. I mean, you're in I gotta uncharted territory, honestly.

620
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 2: And so I feel like again playing the Devil's Advocate,

621
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 2: Like there's so many drawbacks in this episode, but it's

622
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: it's so funny because I think going back, I'm like, well,

623
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 2: this is cool because I could kind of be a

624
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 2: pioneer in this space of like I really want to

625
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 2: act and like I want to do it. Like I'm

626
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 2: aware that having the following and having this platform could

627
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 2: potentially help me get into a door, but it's not

628
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 2: going to keep me in the room. At first, there

629
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 2: was this imposter syndrome and I was getting auditions that

630
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 2: I was like, that's insane because I'm like a fan

631
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 2: of this franchise or I'm a fan like I know

632
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 2: when this movie comes out, Yeah, I'm going to be

633
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 2: a fan of this movie, and so like to even

634
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 2: think that I have a chance of being a character

635
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 2: in it, or I.

636
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: Still have the imposter syndrome.

637
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 2: I mean like wait a minute, they thinking of me?

638
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, my god.

639
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 2: But I read something the other day and it was

640
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 2: really interesting and like it completely shifted my perspective of

641
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 2: imposter syndrome. Is like basically along the lines of imposter

642
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 2: syndrome being a good thing, and it means that you're

643
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 2: doing something cool, and it means like chasing that imposter

644
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 2: syndrome because there are many people that will never experience

645
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,719
Speaker 2: that feeling of like I'm doing something so amazing that

646
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 2: it feels like this shouldn't be happening to me or

647
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 2: for me yea, but in fact, like rethinking that, like

648
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 2: I love chasing that feeling. Now, Yeah, like let's see

649
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 2: how much crazier this life can get. Let's see what

650
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 2: more I can accomplish. And it's like it's a cool

651
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 2: thing to chase, but it's it's also kind of a

652
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 2: slippery slope, like.

653
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 3: What more can I do?

654
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 2: What more?

655
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: Am?

656
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 2: But I think with acting, at first it was very

657
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 2: much that and like playing the Devil's advocate of like

658
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 2: all right, well, growing up seeing these movie stars and

659
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 2: seeing these people that I was fans of and it

660
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 2: was like I know nothing about them and now trying

661
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 2: to do the thing where I'm like reverse engineering it

662
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 2: where I have this platform when I said yes to

663
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 2: that first film, like everything that I said prior to

664
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 2: you know, being a movie star, it sounds amazing, etc.

665
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 2: But I'm like, am I gonna love these? Like I

666
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: had people prep me for like it's gonna be long days.

667
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 2: Early mornings, I was like talking my language, I've been

668
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 2: craving this, like I need to be a part of

669
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 2: a team, and like yeah, I need to have these

670
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 2: bounce boards and like I want to fulfill this creative

671
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 2: side that I feel like it's so hard to which

672
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 2: just myself and the phone and I've I didn't feel

673
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 2: like I hit this plateau, but it was almost Yeah, creatively,

674
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 2: I was like I got to do something bigger and

675
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 2: like I want to and so thank God that I

676
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 2: had such an amazing experience with the first film, and

677
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 2: just knowing that that is what it takes to make

678
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 2: a film, I'm like, oh, sign me up, Like I'm

679
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 2: in this now.

680
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 1: Discipline.

681
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing. And so if the if the industry

682
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 2: continues to have me, I I would love to continue working.

683
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 2: But it's I've been very humbled by the by the process, because,

684
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 2: like I said, the platform can get me in rooms,

685
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 2: but it's yeah, like I think I've done over hundreds

686
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 2: of auditions and it's like this is the journey. Yeah,

687
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 2: and I'm sure, yeah, if you have any tips in that.

688
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: Real oh man, no, you The tips are just keep

689
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: doing it, yeah, And I mean try and find the

690
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: best people to work with and work with them and

691
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: just absorb everything you know, and and as I said earlier,

692
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: continue to try to peel back and let yourself be there,

693
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: which I feel like in some ways, I'm like, no,

694
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: because you have lived in front of the camera, not

695
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: for your entire life, but for you know, a portion,

696
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 1: and so it's like being comfortable in front of the

697
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 1: camera is really important, which obviously that's something I feel like,

698
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: like that that's happening that's great. It's like getting inside

699
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: the skin of the character, understanding everything about the psychology

700
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: of the character as much as you can, and then

701
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: just really connecting with the person you're working with. You

702
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,719
Speaker 1: know who, Remember that may be it's all that, it's

703
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: all that, you know.

704
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 3: Do you remember when you realize that act?

705
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

706
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: There were a couple of things. Yeah, a couple of things.

707
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: And I think when I was a kid, my mom

708
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: would encourage me to join There was a teen theater

709
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: group in town, and I was like, I can't be

710
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: bothered with this annoying and I would go to these

711
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: things and it was really really the social yeah, the

712
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: things that I really enjoyed. Hanging out with some of

713
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: my friends and there were two girls around and I

714
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: was like, not so bad, you know, Yeah, I liked

715
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: this b Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah. Did you ever do ballet?

716
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 2: I didn't, but I took two years of ballet.

717
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 1: Yes, Oh my god. It wasn't I was terrible cool,

718
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: it was no, it was a college. I was serious.

719
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: It was terrible. There were three guys and thirty five girls.

720
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 2: It doesn't sound so bad.

721
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,239
Speaker 1: I was awful, and I love my teacher, but I

722
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: was terrible. Yeah, absolutely terrible. But I you know, again,

723
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: try something, you try it. You know, this is fun

724
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: with the heck, how can I not be fun and

725
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: good hard work? I mean it was. It was a

726
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: good workout. Yeah, that was part. That was part of it.

727
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: And I think I said it it'll help me with

728
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: my fight training or something. I went to like a

729
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: program where I was trained. We had three years of

730
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: acting training for repertory theater. So that was it. Theater

731
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: and that's what I was going to do. And then

732
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: movies kind of came in and and I my first

733
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: film I came in. I was my first screen test.

734
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: I'd never seen a film camera before. I never no

735
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: one had ever done my hair in my makeup before,

736
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: and you know, I was like, what the hell is

737
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 1: all this? You know, I was green as can be,

738
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: you know.

739
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 3: And it was Dune, wasn't it.

740
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally totally. And I watched the movie now and

741
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, you don't know what you're doing there, do you?

742
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: I can just watch my stiff the whole day. That

743
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 1: seems a critic Oh yeah, yeah, yeah totally.

744
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 2: What was that auditioning process like and how if you

745
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 2: felt like or if this was your first time seeing

746
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 2: a film camera and you didn't like, this was such

747
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 2: a foreign thing to you.

748
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, how'd you get the role? I just I you know,

749
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: I had a great good fortune to work with to

750
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: meet David Lynch. He and I had a connection right

751
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 1: at the very beginning.

752
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 2: Wow.

753
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: And he was my on just a personal level, on

754
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: a personal level, yeah, So he was kind of we

755
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: were we were We bonded quickly, almost as brothers. It

756
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: was so interesting. So Dune was our first and he

757
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: helped me through that, and then Blue Velvet was the

758
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: second and worked together again, and then Twin p and

759
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: that whatever, that connection was, that magic that we had

760
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: and I, you know, I really trusted him and and

761
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 1: I had trusted my training too, and I was gradually

762
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 1: able to sort of interface film acting with what I

763
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: knew theater acting right, And it took a bit of time.

764
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: There was some rough edges, you know, such as I

765
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: had the background, oh just you know, just learning what

766
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 1: the camera does. Yeh. See, you have already had a

767
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: relationship with the camera.

768
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 2: Social media has kind of trained me to like be

769
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 2: I've had to become comfortable in front of the camera,

770
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 2: so that it's had a weird way of I guess, yeah,

771
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 2: training me for that because I had I had a

772
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 2: really interesting conversation with my with my co star on

773
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 2: on the movie, and like there were so many times

774
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 2: where I'm just I'm I was so self conscious and

775
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,840
Speaker 2: so it wasn't even I was self conscious in the

776
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 2: right way. I was more I guess again, curious of

777
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 2: like are you believing this? Like after every scene, like

778
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 2: he'd say cut and I would be like, I would

779
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 2: say to her, name is Sienna, and.

780
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 3: Does this feel real? Like I feel like I could do.

781
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 2: It so many different ways and she's like, that's acting

782
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 2: like it's subjective and like how you're doing it is great,

783
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 2: you could do it ten other different ways. And I

784
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 2: was like, oh, I don't say that because that makes

785
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:15,240
Speaker 2: it sound.

786
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 1: Like there's no right. Yeah, there's no right exactly.

787
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 2: It's not a one size fits all. So I had

788
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 2: to learn that very quickly of like you just kind

789
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 2: of have to commit and like if you're going to

790
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 2: make a choice, make a choice, and like, but don't

791
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 2: have asst and just make it feel so listening and

792
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 2: the responding in it, and it really, yeah, it is.

793
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 1: So we had an exercise when I was in Classic

794
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 1: called talking and listening and basically that's it as if

795
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: you're hearing something for the first time and responding to

796
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 1: it in a new way, right, And it's one of

797
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: the things that sort of I've I've been working on

798
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:47,879
Speaker 1: it too, to be honest, you know, in the past

799
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 1: ten years. It's like getting in front of the camera

800
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 1: and just sort of saying, I don't know where we're

801
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: going to go with this.

802
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

803
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: We always play a game great towards the end of

804
00:35:54,880 --> 00:36:00,399
Speaker 1: the interview, and it's called name that heart throb. You're

805
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 1: You're you're more of a heart throb than I've an

806
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: older heart back in the day. But we're going to

807
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,879
Speaker 1: take turns reading lines from that certain heart throbs have said,

808
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: and then we're going to try and guess who said it. Okay, Yeah,

809
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: it's a multiple choice. So when we come back, we're

810
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: back with our heart throb section. And the reason that

811
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 1: we're wearing these these it's not a costume. I mean,

812
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: I you know, I wear this occasionally. It's part of

813
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 1: my wardrobe. Is because nights were the original heart throbs.

814
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: I think at least that's what we're saying right now.

815
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 2: So that's true.

816
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: You look great, by the way, the whole. Yeah, the mess. Yeah,

817
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: it's nice. Glasses work too. I think it's kind of

818
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: a fun touch. I took my glasses off to warre these,

819
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: so I can't see a thing, but I'm just pretending. Okay,

820
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: we're back with our segment. Okay, name that heart throb.

821
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: Now I'm going to take I'm going to read lines

822
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: from various heart throbs throughout history, and we'll have to

823
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 1: decide which one it is. Oh yeah, and we have

824
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 1: candy here. So if you you're pretty I know you're

825
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,880
Speaker 1: pretty pretty healthy, but if you win, we should be

826
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 1: thinking if you lose one, you have to eat a candy.

827
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 3: That's more of an incentive there, because they're very spicy

828
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 3: their heart.

829
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,759

868
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,360

869
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 2: remember him saying that. It is something that he I

870
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,680

871
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,480

933
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 2: film and shows or whatever. But all in all, I

934
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 2: just want to continue to to create. Literally what we

935
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 2: were just talking about, I want to create. I want

936
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:58,440
Speaker 2: to tell stories.

937
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,799
Speaker 1: I was going to ask, is there something that you like,

938
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 1: a story that you think resonates with you or a

939
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 1: character or like a book, you know something. Yeah, You're like,

940
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 1: I really feel a kinship to this. Maybe you know

941
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,399
Speaker 1: it's just soccer related or yeah, I mean I don't know.

942
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 2: If we want to play close to home. I think, yeah,

943
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 2: it's something down the line or something within the realm

944
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 2: of soccer, which I mean, it's the only genre I've done.

945
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,920
Speaker 2: But I love rom coms and I will continue to

946
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 2: throw my hat in that ring to pursue those, Like

947
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 2: if there's anything that I've learned from my career thus far,

948
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 2: not even in just an acting but in social media

949
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,399
Speaker 2: as well as like I don't really believe in getting

950
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 2: pigeonholed just because we live in a world now where

951
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 2: it's so like you might as well become like a

952
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,840
Speaker 2: jack of all trades just to kind of learn something

953
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 2: to potentially have it manifest to lead to something. And

954
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 2: I I'm a big believer on if it's like, if

955
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 2: it's not, don't fix it. And I think the the

956
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 2: rom com space is there's always going to be an

957
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:06,280
Speaker 2: appetite for it. And I'm a consumer of those films anyway,

958
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 2: and so I would love to continue to do that.

959
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 2: But yeah, eventually branching out and doing it like I

960
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 2: want to do every genre there is, and I want

961
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 2: to because you got to try it. It's like ballet class,

962
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:17,520
Speaker 2: you gotta try.

963
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 1: It, you see. I think this is a points to

964
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,040
Speaker 1: the different a difference in generation, right you're talking about

965
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,560
Speaker 1: you are looking to do many, many, many different things. Yeah, right,

966
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 1: and to explore a lot of different things, which I

967
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 1: think is true of this younger generation of people that

968
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: are that are really engaged in social social My generation

969
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 1: is like, no, you do this thing. You're an actor

970
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,879
Speaker 1: and then maybe you know, eventually you become a director, yeah,

971
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: you know or something like that. But you sort of

972
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 1: stay in your lane. Seems pretty severe. I don't think

973
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 1: it's exactly that, but I hear you y's like that,

974
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: and I think that's a big difference between you know,

975
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 1: people my age people. Your age is just like, no, no,

976
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,359
Speaker 1: you can do all this stuff and have success at

977
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: all of these different things. Nothing find you. And I

978
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 1: think that's just a just a wonderful thing.

979
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:04,839
Speaker 2: Well, I think at the end of the day, like

980
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,600
Speaker 2: I think my generation is still trying to break that

981
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 2: stigma in a sense, because I mean, what I've learned

982
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 2: is that there are a lot of people that are

983
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 2: gonna say, oh, you started on social media, what makes

984
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,839
Speaker 2: you think you can go into this? Like, yeah, it's

985
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 2: kind of that stand in your lane, and trust me,

986
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 2: some comments are a lot more blunt than that. But

987
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,799
Speaker 2: if there's one thing I've learned, it's just that you

988
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 2: don't need to ask permission and you don't need to

989
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,400
Speaker 2: like just do it and like be undeniable. But I

990
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:35,359
Speaker 2: think I respect acting too much to think that I'm

991
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 2: entitled to be in some of these movies because of

992
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 2: my following or whatever. It's like, like I said, it's

993
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 2: getting you in the room, but it's not keeping you

994
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 2: in there, and so it's kind of all up to

995
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,319
Speaker 2: me on whether or not I put in the work

996
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 2: to stay in there. And so I think the athlete

997
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,839
Speaker 2: and me would not let like, if there's any part

998
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 2: of me that was slacking in that realm or was

999
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:00,880
Speaker 2: thinking that there was bits of a titlement creeping in,

1000
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 2: then I would. I'm harder. I'm harder on myself than anyone.

1001
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,359
Speaker 2: So it's like, yeah, yeah, I won't allow that. But well,

1002
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm excited for the future. Honestly, I'm just

1003
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 2: like I'm anxious to tell more stories. I just I've

1004
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 2: learned that I just love film and shows, and yeah,

1005
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 2: there's so much content to consume nowadays, and so I

1006
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 2: just want to continue being a creator of that.

1007
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 1: Brilliant Yeah, good, good, good, well, thank you, thank you.

1008
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,399
Speaker 1: That's all the time we have today. I mean there

1009
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: is more time in the day. Yeah, this is as

1010
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: far as we're going to go. Did we solve the riddle,

1011
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 1: the riddle that unites us all? What are we even doing?

1012
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if we did, but we had a

1013
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 1: great time doing it, going on our way, going on
