WEBVTT - Jackie Tohn 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.440 Hello everybody. I feel like that's that's like the scientists 0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:05.760 from Simpsons. I could be wrong, though, I don't know. 0:00:05.960 --> 0:00:08.319 There's my impersonation for the day. All Right, you guys 0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:11.400 have been great. We'll see you next week. How's everyone 0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:14.120 doing feeling good? Well? If not, I got something for 0:00:14.160 --> 0:00:15.760 you today. I've done a lot of episodes. I haven't 0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:17.639 gone and counted how many episodes we've done in the 0:00:17.640 --> 0:00:20.120 Welles Cast, but it's got to be over a hundred. 0:00:20.200 --> 0:00:23.079 And then in my radio career, I've done thousands of interviews. 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:27.960 I've interviewed everybody from actors to musicians, to comics, to chefs, 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:31.720 to authors, to mediums and everyone in between. And the 0:00:31.720 --> 0:00:36.960 trick to a good interview really is figuring out a 0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:40.520 way that makes the listener feel like they're a part 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:43.440 of the conversation. And you can do that in a 0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:45.960 couple of ways. I mean, one way, you can literally 0:00:46.000 --> 0:00:48.840 talk to the listener, which is what a radio DJ 0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:51.960 does between songs every break. You can have a musician 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:56.080 come on and play something that is so touching that 0:00:56.120 --> 0:00:59.880 the listener feels moved by the piece. You can inter 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.920 you someone and they can tell such an intimate story 0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:06.800 about themselves that everyone can relate and you also can 0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:10.039 do it by energy. And I say that because everyone 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:12.040 This is going back to my radio days, but everyone 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:14.280 is having a day when they're listening to the radio. 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:16.640 Especially when I had my morning show. It was a 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:20.640 hard show to do because everyone felt like crap. Because 0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:23.720 it's seven in the morning, you're driving to some terrible 0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:25.320 nine of five that you don't want to do. You 0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:29.600 got to deal with your crap boss and Karen from accounting, 0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:32.760 and you're trying to get people to feel good before 0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:35.040 they have to feel bad. And so you've got to 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:38.560 come with solid energy. And you never know what you're 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:41.319 going to get when you do interviews for morning shows, 0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:44.679 but you try to book things that will be uplifting 0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:48.200 and positive and fun and funny and energetic and stuff. 0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:49.840 I guess all that to be said. I wish I 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.800 had this person on my show back when I did 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:55.480 a morning show, because if you were feeling like crap 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:59.080 and hungover and drowsy and just not wanting to go 0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:01.720 into work, then you heard this interview, I think that 0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:04.000 your day would turn around early do at least that's 0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:06.880 how I felt going out of the interview. I was 0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:10.160 like Oh, I feel so much better. Her energy was bonkers. 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:13.919 It was so positive and funny and fun and lighthearted 0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:17.720 and inclusive. If you're a good interviewer, you're also a listener, 0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:19.960 right you know, you're part of the audience. And so 0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:22.000 I just hope that you guys out there feel the 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:24.680 same way that I did, because I absolutely love this interview. 0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:27.919 Right now, she is hosting a show on Netflix which 0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:30.840 is a cooking show called Best Leftovers Ever, which basically 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:33.280 gets a bunch of amazing cooks in and they give 0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.440 them leftovers from the refrigerator and they say, Okay, now 0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:36.960 you have to go make something special. And it's an 0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:39.560 awesome show and it's perfect for right now because well, 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:42.200 we are all stuck at home. We really can't go out, 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:43.919 so we've got leftover post Mates and we're just like, 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:45.640 what do we do? I don't know. She's also on 0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:48.520 a little show called Glow on Netflix, which if you 0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:50.840 guys haven't watched Glow, I don't. That's a you problem 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:54.000 because it's phenomenal. But she's been around forever. It's on 0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:58.480 American Idol, was on All That, Do you guys remember that? 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:00.840 Back the day. It's also on the show with the boys. 0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:03.840 Have you guys seen done a lot. She's an amazing actress, obviously, 0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:09.320 She's a phenomenal host, an incredible singer, a fantastic stand 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:11.800 up five to a player. She can do it all. 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:14.560 And I'm telling you, guys, this is one interview you 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.160 are not going to want to miss. When we come back, 0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:19.800 we're gonna have Jackie Tone on the show. Let's stick around, 0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:24.320 roll it. This is a Wells cast with Wells Adams 0:03:24.320 --> 0:03:30.040 and I Heart Radio podcast. Can you hear me? We 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:33.000 are here. I should put headphones in. Maybe I should 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:35.280 have prepared for this moment a little better. No, you're 0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:38.920 doing great. Whatever feels right to you. Ask before we 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.000 continue that you agree to send me the dog with 0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.320 the ears you want him? You want the real one? 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:46.800 Or do you want the picture that's your dog? Yeah, 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.520 he's downstairs sleeping right now. He will look up this 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.480 interview at some point and start howling. Don't worry, okay, 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.800 because so will my dog, and so will my boyfriend's dog. 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:58.040 And if the mailman comes, it's game my dog, Glenn. 0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:00.720 He's sleeping on four blankets right now, So if anybody 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:03.720 else wanted a blanket, they can go. Yeah, well, that's 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:06.520 my dog, Carl. I do appreciate that both of us 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:10.680 have very personified dog names. You better watch it. Your 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:13.680 dog's name is Carl. Yeah, he's Carl the Bloodhound. You 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:15.680 can follow him on Instagram if you want. I'm one 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:17.920 of those people. We don't need to get into why 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:22.960 I did it, but it happened, so Glenn Son, obviously 0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.760 we should have an Instagram. And now I've had him 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.800 so long. The fact that he's like starting now, well, 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:31.560 he's like, it feels like a weird call. So then 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.040 I'm like, well, I feel like I really missed the 0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:35.120 boat on that one. Glen. You don't have an Instagram 0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:38.080 and here we are. There's a sweet story too. I'm 0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:41.200 not like one of those like crazy narcissistic dog owners 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:43.920 that just pedals their dog for maybe I am. I 0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:46.000 don't know, but I went on a reality show where 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.880 they took your phone away from you, and I was 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:51.640 freaking out about my I've been there with the no phone, 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.720 no computer, no contact with the outside world, and used 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:57.000 to lie to everybody and tell them you're off the grid, 0:04:57.040 --> 0:04:58.520 and everyone's like, bitch, you live in l A. We 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:01.040 know you're on the reality show. Just up, But anyway, 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:03.160 go on Carl, Carl. I was like, I'm gonna start 0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.000 an Instagram account. My sisters going to take care of 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.039 my dog while I'm gone. To my sister, I was like, 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:09.360 every three days, I need you to post a picture 0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:10.800 of Carl so I know he's okay. And then I 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:13.799 would tell a producer, Hey, go check my dog's Instagram profile, 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:16.479 just so I know he's okay. And that's why I 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:20.359 had it, and then it turned into a different thing. Um, 0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.120 I just want him to know on you to know 0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:26.560 that his ears are the right size. Yeah, yeah, exactly. 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.320 My boyfriend has a corgy chow and you even imagine 0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:33.599 when I'm telling you right now, he's like a holiday 0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:37.040 ham with quarter inch legs. And every time he walks by, 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:38.680 my name is Barren. Every time he walks by me, 0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:40.720 I said, Bear, those are the right length, flag, bro, 0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:42.760 those are the right legs. Because you've got to tell 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:46.480 him because they're not nothing right, Yeah, no, they're not. 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:50.080 You gotta pump some mare in those tires, you know.

My eyes are 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:21.560 read so good. Hold on, let me move this life party. 0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:24.400 Let's go, okay, quick break. When we come back, we 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:37.760 are actually gonna start this show, I think. All right. 0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:40.400 Back on the Wells Cast. Very excited to have one 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:43.599 of the stars from Glow on the show. She also 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:47.480 has a new cooking show, which means that she's basically 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:51.480 got the coolest job ever. Welcome on the Wells Cast, 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:55.520 Jackie Tone, how are you hi? Everybody mostly high Wells. 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.839 I'm good man. I do have the coolest job ever. 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.080 And I dreamed of it for ever, and I waited 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:04.760 a good long time. I saw that you went on 0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:07.880 an Armchair Expert recently, so I just want to say, hey, 0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:11.760 thanks for slumming it down here with the kind of 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:18.040 the shittier podcast, not even first of all, such you're 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:21.360 maybe and such different audiences, and I think that's why 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.360 I'm so uh. I love doing this and I do 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:27.280 like all my friends who are comics and have their fun, 0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:30.720 super tiny, weird podcast. But we've been friends forever, and 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.160 you know, I like, I like chatting with everybody, and 0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:35.320 I just want everybody to watch Best Leftovers Ever because 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.600 that ship is fun. I don't know if anyone told you, 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:42.240 but I went on Worst Cooks in America Celebrity Edition, 0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:45.960 which I think the celebrity edition part was I don't 0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:49.040 know a loose definition. But Jackie, I need you to 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:53.120 know going into this interview, your boy won that ship. Okay, 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.320 so I don't know if you need people. And here's 0:07:56.320 --> 0:08:00.760 the question. Yeah, there's Glen Routing art show. Here's the problem. 0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:04.240 Does that mean you're the worst cook or the like 0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:07.440 you won as the actual worst or you were the 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:10.160 best person there of the people who were just terrible. 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:14.040 So everyone was bad to begin with and I made 0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:18.680 the biggest strides and got amazing. Because it's confusing when 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.560 it's called worst cook, then you're like, all right, well 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:23.600 the person that just puts dogshit on a plane and 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:27.880 the winner, because that's definitely the worst. In the first episode, 0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:29.840 I may try to make pasta and it was so 0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:32.080 terrible that it stuck to the plate and the host 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:34.720 of the show took it and put it upside down 0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:38.839 over her head and it didn't fall on her head. 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:41.440 And then the enda had a cooker three course meal 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:44.360 in a restaurant, and I would beat Johnny Bananas from 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:48.280 the challenge. Anyways, listen, I just want you to know that, like, 0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:52.320 I get it. I know what you think. The term 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:56.679 celebrity was loose on you. I think, whoever, Johnny Bananas 0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:59.679 is probably even happier to be there than you were. 0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:02.640 So I say that all the time when people are like, 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:07.880 when I'm referenced as a celebrity ever, I'm like, I'm hilarious, 0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:09.880 Like I feel like the jokes on the person who 0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:12.720 said it's every time. Yeah, I feel that. Tell me 0:09:12.800 --> 0:09:16.320 about best leftovers ever? Because I feel like this is 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:19.480 a perfect time for a show like this, Not that 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:23.199 anything is perfect for COVID pandemic times, but this one, 0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:25.840 especially because we're all sucking stuck. I feel like there's 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:27.400 a show that kind of teaches you how to like 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:29.600 make the best of what you got in the house 0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:32.040 you couldn't have. I mean I literally don't even need 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:35.400 to expound because you've just you've just explained it perfectly. 0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.160 But that is exactly what it is. And even even 0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:40.320 for me, I hold this show and I judge it, 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:43.080 and I've taken so many tips that I learned on 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:44.920 the show, Like I'll just open my fridge and out 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:46.840 have an idea what to make, and I'll look at 0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:48.520 peanut butter and be like, oh, you know what, I 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:49.920 feel like I learned how to make a fun Asian 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:53.400 peanut sauce with that I look at peanut butter before. 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:55.800 I mean, I all I eat like a toddler, So 0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:57.440 all I ever really ate in the past was like 0:09:57.480 --> 0:09:59.840 a hot If I'm hungry for dinner and I need something, 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.560 it's like I will have gold visions of vanilla ice cream, 0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:05.880 Like I'm not above it, but it really has elevated, 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:09.240 so um, I'll play the show. It's just like it sounds. 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:13.120 We have different levels of chefs come on three per 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:16.839 episode and compete for the ten thousand dollar cash roll. 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:18.880 I know you guys are just listening, but I'm winking 0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:21.760 because it is cash and a casserole dish. In round one, 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:26.520 they have fridges behind them where we say likely guys, um, 0:10:26.720 --> 0:10:32.200 you had date like date night last night. So you 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:36.320 have in the fridge some filet mignon and chocolate covered 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:39.640 strawberries and a salad, right, and you need to take 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:43.520 those ingredients and turn them into a flavor bomb brunch 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:48.080 and just completely unrecognizable. And then of course the person 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:51.280 that uses the most leftovers they don't necessarily win, but 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:55.240 we that counts. And then for round two, my fridge 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:57.160 comes out, and it's sort of Pee Wee's Playhouse vibes, 0:10:57.200 --> 0:10:59.120 where like, my fridge is a character on the show, 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:00.920 and sometimes she shout and we have to like chant 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:05.320 to get her, get her hotzpun fridge fridge. Finally, her 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:08.280 little shy ask comes out. I opened the fridge and 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:11.160 in there are take out leftovers that are you know, 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:14.120 quote unquote mine. So they'll be like three different Chinese 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:17.240 food dishes, three different Italian dishes. Each episode a different 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:21.000 ethnicity of food. And in round two, the cooks need 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:25.079 to take whatever Chinese food they were randomly given and 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:28.640 turn it into high end cuisine of a totally different ethnicity. 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.080 If you can't take Chinese and keep it that way, 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:35.480 And we had people turning Italian food into curry and 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:39.000 dinner food into Italian. I mean, it was it's nuts 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.679 what these people did. So are they all well known chefs? 0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:44.720 So it was a season one of the show, and 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:47.959 so we're pretty confident that, you know, next season what 0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:49.559 the people do is going to be even crazier and 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:51.640 the chefs will be even crazier. But we got I 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:54.760 guess our cast our cooks. They were incredible. I don't 0:11:54.760 --> 0:11:57.600 think any of them are like world renowned, you know, 0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:01.160 Bobby Flame vibes. It's not the Iron Chef leftovers, but 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:04.440 it is all these people can cook like that. The 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:07.199 bit isn't that like they're making gross food. The bit 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:11.480 is that they are killing it. Bear, let's that dude 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:15.719 curious with this teeny tenny legs. Bear, that's exactly how 0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:19.400 long your legs should be. You're killing the game well 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:23.760 as even supports you. So what is your role on 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:26.839 the show, because I assume not to assume, but I 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:31.120 assume you're not Julia Child's thank you for seeing my 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:34.720 true heart so early in this interview, I burned toast. 0:12:35.360 --> 0:12:38.280 So I'm not trying to sit here and pretend when 0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.960 these guys are making this incredible food that I know 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:46.120 what I'm talking about, but my mouth works, so I 0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:48.520 can still tell you what it tastes like. And it's 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:51.080 sort of like the Lehman's I come in with that 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:55.240 Layman angles. We've got Rosemary Shrager, who is rightnown world 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:58.240 renowned chef cookbook author. Um. I mean this guy, David 0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:02.440 so is an incredible strontour culinary influencer. He cooks as well, 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.200 but he doesn't fancy himself like a chef. And so 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:09.240 those two guys are really giving the critiques. As far 0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:11.520 as you know, it could be brighter. It could be 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:14.640 using a lot of food words where I'm just shoving 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:18.360 my face and being like this is very good. Or 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:21.760 why is this the consistency of boogers, you know things, 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:26.320 high end, high end, high end critiques. You're like every man, 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:31.600 You're the blue color. You're the Bruce Springsteen of this show. 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:36.680 Don't please with the high compliment. I'm the I'm the 0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:41.800 boss whatever. That's incredible. Yeah, even if you said I 0:13:41.880 --> 0:13:44.479 was little Stevie, I would have been flattered. But I'm 0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:46.800 also I mean, if I'm Bruce, I'm Bruce, Like, I 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:50.920 don't have no more questions. Wait, were you on sopranos. Yes, 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:53.880 and I played Little Stevie's daughter. I know, dude, I've 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:57.280 been acting since I was nine. Like, there's a lot 0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:00.360 of little pieces to put together in this journey. I 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:03.000 do want to get to all of that. But I 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:05.520 want to put a bow on this show. It's on Netflix, 0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:08.400 by the way, and everyone, obviously you need to go 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:10.960 watch you purely because you need ideas for what the 0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:14.120 hell to do on day seven thousand nine three of 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:16.480 us quarantine with all the food in the refrigerator. But 0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:19.520 my question is this, because like you've done everything, you're 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:22.960 like so multi talented and multi facetage. Did you come 0:14:23.040 --> 0:14:25.040 up with this idea? Was it was like this idea 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:28.320 for this show? Like your brain shall no. Actually, so, 0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:31.840 the brief version of this crazy story is that the 0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:34.520 Magical Elves, who are sort of the best in class 0:14:34.600 --> 0:14:39.360 for reality producers, I mean, uh, for competition shows. Um, 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:42.560 no disrespect to the batch obviously from the links. Uh, 0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:46.440 these guys made Top Chef and Project Runway and nailed 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:48.640 it and they know what they're doing. And so I 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:51.520 just took a meeting with them. They were looking they 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.160 had this idea. It was already at Netflix, and they 0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:56.880 had and they wanted I believe female, but that part 0:14:56.920 --> 0:14:58.400 I'm not sure about. I think they wanted like a 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:02.040 female comic who was Netflix talent so they could keep 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:04.120 it in the family and sort of have the people 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:06.320 stay in the platform and hop from show to show. 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:09.120 And I took a meeting with them, and the whole 0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:12.680 thing was like, it's kind of funny. Uh, are you 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:15.600 an actor as well? No, it's just a radio host 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:20.280 before all of this. Well, all right, well I'm your manager, Okay, 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:24.120 whatever inside we'll talk about. Like, but there's this thing, um, 0:15:24.160 --> 0:15:26.800 and I think I've been doing this so long that 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:29.640 I get when when something really goes well in a meeting, 0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:33.000 really goes well, I tamp it immediately. Like when I leave, 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.840 I'm like, cool, it's over. That never happened. I'm never 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:38.040 going to think about it again, because in the beginning 0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:39.560 part of my career, I can't tell you how many 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:42.480 times I went on an audition in the room, I 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.320 just have chills thinking about this. In the room, they 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:47.920 were like, hey, Jackie, don't don't don't cut your hair, 0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:50.520 like you know, giving you these little sort of and 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:52.480 then as I was leaving, maybe like Jackie and I 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:54.520 turned around. They'd be like, come back in. The producers 0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:56.240 want to see one more thing, and you'd come back 0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:58.360 in and you're like the other girls in the waiting 0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:00.440 room were like, oh ship that girls of call back, 0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:03.480 like you just know it's yours and then it's not 0:16:04.560 --> 0:16:07.000 and it's just and that happened ninety nine times out 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.040 of And so I'm in this meeting and like, I'm 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:12.720 telling this ridiculous story about how the paparazzi caught me 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:15.920 leaving Craigs with six bags of leftovers, looking like a 0:16:16.000 --> 0:16:19.240 freaking My bangs were greasy. I looked like an absolute 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:22.160 shit storm when people could still go to restaurants, And 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.320 it was the first time I ever got paparazzi. So 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:26.040 part of it was like, oh my god, I made it, 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:28.640 and the other part was like I look like a 0:16:28.680 --> 0:16:31.760 garbage fire, and am I why do I have so 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:33.800 many bags? And it was so embarrassing. So I pull 0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:36.840 up the Getty images in the meeting of me taking 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:39.400 out all these leftovers. One of the Netflix executives on 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:42.640 her chair like you do leftovers from Craigs? What is 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:45.120 wrong with your like raw screaming. The vibe is amazing, 0:16:45.840 --> 0:16:49.400 and I'm like this is everything, this is my dream, 0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:52.040 and then my brain instantly goes to like, calm down, 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:54.960 this isn't yours yet. Even if it is yours, it's 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:57.280 not yours. Everything could go up. It's like it's kind 0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.800 of I don't know, not to get to a psychological 0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:03.400 but it's kind of sad because you can't let yourself 0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:07.720 exist in that joy place for too long because it's 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.919 so much further to fall when you find out it 0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:13.200 actually isn't yours. So you have to bring yourself back 0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:15.840 down to this middle ground of like, okay, breathe it out. 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:19.080 I did my best. That was a fun experience. Anything 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:22.000 can happen. And then I left and as I was leaving, 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:24.719 sort of calming myself down, the head of the Magical 0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:28.360 Elves comes out of the Netflix building and he's like, uh, yeah, 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:30.399 we're gonna make it with you. Netflix wants to do it. 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:32.480 We want to do it. It's gonna be you. And 0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:34.439 it was like why I started to cry like a 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:37.080 little plus dude, it was a long time coming. I waited. 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:39.879 I waited for an executive to follow me out of 0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:42.000 a building and tell me it was me for the 0:17:42.040 --> 0:17:45.440 better party of five years. So it's pretty cool. That's awesome. 0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:47.520 I want to know what, because I've been to Craig's. 0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:50.080 I want to know what you brought? Was the chicken? 0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:53.639 Like what did you bring home from? Yeah? Okay, So 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:56.479 what happened was I went for like a Glow season 0:17:56.600 --> 0:17:59.600 two or three celebratory dinner with my agent and the gods. 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:02.120 Is getting to be such a Hollywood douchey story. So suddody. 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:04.560 It was with my agent at this very fancy restaurant. 0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:07.320 But what's funny is I'm such a low red bitch. 0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:10.159 I don't know what Craig's was not a clue. With 0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:12.159 due respect to Craigs, which is now truly one of 0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:15.280 my favorite restaurants, It's not a fancy name, sounds like 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:18.399 a Jewish guy from New York, like Craig Rosenthal. I 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:20.240 was like, well, going to Craig's, Like, I don't know 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:23.280 what that even is? Like, okay, So we go to Craig's. 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:24.720 I meet him there, and on my way in, I 0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:26.959 noticed all the paparads here there. They obviously don't care 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:30.080 about my homeless looking twelve year old boy ass. So 0:18:30.119 --> 0:18:32.560 I'm going in like, okay, I don't what is this place. 0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:36.000 J Lo and a Rod are at one table. All 0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:38.239 of Maroon five is at another table, and I'm like, 0:18:38.400 --> 0:18:41.560 what where am I brings over the food? Um? My 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:43.919 agent gets some fish I got I think the chicken 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:48.600 palm where it's ridiculously good, And I think the waiter 0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:50.320 just has to at that point, at the end of 0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:51.879 the meal come over and say, like, you guys when 0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:54.919 I know, take anything home. My agent says no so fast, 0:18:55.000 --> 0:18:57.720 like my hair blows back like he's like, no, we're good, 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:00.679 We're good. And I was like, oh, you're not taking 0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:03.160 You're not taking your Oh I'll take both. I'll take 0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:05.600 both of these, like this is no joke. Then we 0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:11.240 got dessert. I also took that, and then I was 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:14.359 leaving with three I literally think the waiter had to 0:19:14.400 --> 0:19:15.679 like go in the back and be like do we 0:19:15.840 --> 0:19:18.960 have to go boxes? Like is that something we offer here? 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:24.600 And then I leave with three craigs bags, sweaty bangs, 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:28.119 and a camo shirt and the pop paras like Jackie Jackie, 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:30.800 and I'm like, they're obviously talking about a different Jackie 0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:36.240 because duh. And I turned around and they are flashing, flashing, 0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:39.840 flashing like crazy, and I'm holding all the leftovers bags. 0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:42.439 So my mouth in the pictures is like, oh god, 0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:46.200 what like I'm making crazy mouth shapes. I've been learned 0:19:46.240 --> 0:19:47.879 to l after that that once they got you, they 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:51.720 got you, so you just stand there and smile. But yeah, 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:53.560 that was what we took from Craigs. I believe, the 0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:57.040 telapia and the chicken farm and some cheesecake, three different bags. Well, hey, 0:19:57.040 --> 0:20:00.600 you know what it got you, this reality show. So 0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:04.520 it worked out. Yes, that's great. And so to answer 0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:07.160 your question from before, I'm the host and I'm a judge, 0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:09.560 one of three judges got it. What's the one thing 0:20:09.800 --> 0:20:13.280 someone has taken from leftovers and turned into something else 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:15.040 that like I stuck with you that you're just like, Holy, 0:20:15.640 --> 0:20:17.720 that was amazing. I can't believe this happened. There was 0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:22.520
