1
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: Do you remember getting into a car accident with me?

2
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 2: No, no yet, I was so I must have just

3
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 2: been sixteen and you couldn't drive yet. And we went

4
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: to the one on one coffee shop. Yes, a coffee right,

5
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 2: I love that place. And we were pulling out and

6
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 2: I stopped at a stop sign and for some reason

7
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 2: backed up and backed into a woman in her car.

8
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: Do you remember this.

9
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 3: Now that you're saying it. I vaguely remember the backing

10
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 3: up crunch.

11
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 2: Oh my god. It was the first time I'd ever

12
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: been in an accident. I was sixteen.

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: I was terrified.

14
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 2: But what was so funny about is then you and

15
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 2: I get out and this woman could not have been meaner.

16
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: She was so upset. She's like, are you even can

17
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: you even drive? Because we were kids, we.

18
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 4: Were so young, exactly is this your parents car?

19
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: And I remember you? And I got so like whoa lady?

20
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: And she was like she was convinced that, you know,

21
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 2: because I just heard her car, and that I was

22
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: never going to pay it, that I didn't have insurance,

23
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 2: and I was sneaking off and I was like in

24
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: the middle of the day, and I just remember her

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 2: being this like crazy, frantic upset lady, which in retrospect kind.

26
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 1: Of makes sense.

27
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: You see two like babies get out of the car

28
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: that just backed into you, and it's like it was

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 2: an expensive car, it was an suv, it was my

30
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 2: Pathfinder brand new. Oh yeah, but I just remember you

31
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 2: and I being so self righteous, you know, because I

32
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 2: gave her the insurance information.

33
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: But I remember assuring her.

34
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: I was like, it's my car, I have my own money,

35
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: I do this, and she was so uninged, and I

36
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 2: just remember you and I being like.

37
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 4: I wonder why you backed up at the stop sign.

38
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: No, I don't know.

39
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 3: We maybe maybe yeah, or maybe you were too far

40
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 3: too far out, I know what I mean, Like maybe

41
00:01:58,440 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 3: you felt like you were too far out.

42
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 2: So oh but I just yeah, I get you know,

43
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 2: And like this has happened to me a couple of times,

44
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 2: Like now we have backup cameras, but like it happened

45
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 2: to be a couple of times where I would back

46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: into something because I just wouldn't look.

47
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: I mean, what an idiot.

48
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that wasn't sure if you remembered that. I

49
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: had that like memory come back to me and I

50
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, Danielle was in the front seat, and

51
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: like we were both.

52
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: Just so like couldn't believe this woman. I can look

53
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: back and like, how dare she not respect me?

54
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 3: Dare she assume we're in our parents' car. We are

55
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 3: clearly in our mid teens. We are clear in the

56
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 3: middle of a dish.

57
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 4: We should have been in high school.

58
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 2: Exactly what she was probably like, these kids are ditching school,

59
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: which absolutely the right thing to She's like, do I

60
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: have to call the cops on you?

61
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,519
Speaker 1: Where's a truancy officers? Officer?

62
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: This is ridiculous. You just backed into me, and I'm

63
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: like it'll probably just like calmed down.

64
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,959
Speaker 4: Lady, lady, guys, just a material object.

65
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: Don't stress. I used to call everybody's stress puppies.

66
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,839
Speaker 4: That's why, remember such a your mom's such a stress.

67
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: Puppy, just being like she's a total chiz rat right now,

68
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 2: she's all chizen out.

69
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 3: This has nothing to do with the accident, but I

70
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 3: wanted to know if you recognize the shirt I'm wearing,

71
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 3: it's the north Western San Diego shirt. Yeah, so anyway,

72
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 3: this was made that for us, right, Yes, it was

73
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 3: given to us at a at a meet and greet

74
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 3: after one of our Podmets World live shows based on

75
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 3: the school that Eric Matthews wants to go to the

76
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 3: north Southwestern state. And they made the shirts and they're

77
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 3: so cute they look like they could actually be our merch.

78
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 3: So you know, our our fans are not chiz rats. No,

79
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 3: not or stress puppies or stress puppies. Where'd you get

80
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 3: chiz rat?

81
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 5: What is that?

82
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: I don't know.

83
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: You know, when you're crusting, crusting with some cluckers coffee

84
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: cats and sebastopol on coffee all, you know, you become

85
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: like a total cheers rat, like these words coming.

86
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 4: Down of you know this, I want more of this.

87
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: This is Sebhole speak from nineteen ninety five.

88
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 4: This is the most teen writer.

89
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 3: I feel like I've just been transported into and I'm like,

90
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 3: oh man, that's pretty great, Sebhole. Wow, thank you for

91
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 3: thank you for taking me back.

92
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 2: Writer.

93
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 3: We had so many good times, a lot of rain.

94
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 3: I remember being with you in the rain a lot.

95
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 3: We liked the rain, I know, we love the rain.

96
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 3: We loved County Crows and so we used to sit

97
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: and remember there was you had like a big rock,

98
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 3: like a landscaping rock in your yard and Encino and

99
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: we would like hang out on the rock, a little

100
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 3: bit of nature.

101
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: Hey man, you know, get away from the city, rain

102
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: my rock.

103
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 4: This big landscaping rock.

104
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: Oh my god, get away from the stress, puppies.

105
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: Let's just crust on this rock and think. Oh my god.

106
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 4: Welcome to Pond meets World.

107
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 3: I'm Danielle Fischel, I'm right or Strong, and we are

108
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 3: missing our dear wil Fredell today. As you could imagine,

109
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 3: every now and then, things come up for us in

110
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 3: our personal lives that have to take priority over doing

111
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 3: the podcast, and when we've already got things scheduled, it's

112
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 3: too hard to necessarily cancel them and pick a different date.

113
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 3: So we have chosen to do the show without Will today.

114
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 3: He is going to be sorely missed, but he will

115
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 3: be back. Everything's cool and good, but there was just

116
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 3: something he needed to take care of. So we will

117
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 3: welcome him back with wide open arms for our next episode.

118
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:49,239
Speaker 3: And today we are very excited to interview someone.

119
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 4: DJ Tanner is a.

120
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 3: Character name that sits among the most elite sitcom roles

121
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 3: of the nineties. Thanks to our guest this week, an

122
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,039
Speaker 3: actor who we can only imagine was compelled by a

123
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 3: to appear with us in a nineteen ninety seven Halloween

124
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 3: Bottle episode that ended with Ben and I most likely

125
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 3: dying in an airplane crash. She played Millie slash Ushkar,

126
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 3: Queen of Malevolence, daughter of Evil, the love interest of

127
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 3: the newly cast Jack for season five, causing a serious

128
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 3: rift with his roommate Eric because she might just be

129
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 3: a witch. It became one of the most memorable cameos

130
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 3: Boy Meets World ever had, and around the same time

131
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 3: as the Craft was released in theaters, we had our

132
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 3: own version time exactly, we got our own version of

133
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 3: a cute witch chic. But more importantly, she spent eight

134
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 3: seasons on Full House one hundred and ninety two episodes,

135
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 3: a show that cracked the top ten twice and was

136
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 3: only out of the top thirty shows on TV in

137
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 3: its first season. Twenty four point three million viewers tuned

138
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 3: into its hour long series finale, and it was a

139
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 3: show that was still in the top twenty five when

140
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 3: it was taken off the air, which means it shouldn't

141
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 3: have been a surprise when they all returned for a

142
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 3: sequel Netflix show that ran for five more seasons. She

143
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 3: has since built an empire working with Hallmark and now

144
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 3: Great American Media. Her Christmas movies have become as much

145
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 3: of a tradition for the holiday as candy canes, and

146
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 3: now as former criminologist turns Craft's artisan Ainsley McGregor, she

147
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 3: continues her journey of grabbing the torch from Angela Lansbury

148
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 3: and then solving a mystery with it. She's taken on

149
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 3: a power position in Hollywood, producing everything she now stars

150
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 3: in and a ton of other projects, like the recent

151
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 3: movie Unsung Hero. This week on Pod Meets World, we

152
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 3: are talking to someone I am regularly mistaken for. It's

153
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 3: nineties Royalty, Candice Cameron Beret.

154
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 5: That's fun.

155
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: I never knew that you guys got confused in pupil's minds.

156
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 3: It happened a lot when I was a teenager, when

157
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 3: she and I were both teens. It would be like

158
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 3: are you And I would start to answer and they'd

159
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 3: be like.

00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 4: From full House, he Hi.

00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: You and I get mistaken for you.

164
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 3: It recently happened for me at a valet I had,

165
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 3: I had handed over my car keys. I went into

166
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 3: this event, I came out, I went to get my car,

167
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 3: and he was like a teenager and he said, excuse me,

168
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 3: this might be a weird question, but are you And

169
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 3: then just trailed off and I said to Panga from

170
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 3: Boy Meets World and he said, no, I was going

171
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 3: to say. I was going to say, And then he said,

172
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 3: one of your kids' names their mom And he said,

173
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 3: because I did Natasha I did, wasn't Natasha?

174
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,959

175
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah.

176
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 4: I was like, oh no.

177
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 3: I was like, that's an interesting way because it wasn't

178
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 3: even that you. So you mistook me for somebody who

179
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 3: used to see it like hockey practice.

180
00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's just like that show that.

181
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: Was on a teen show in the nineties, right, Oh

182
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: my god.

183
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 5: It was so say the same thing all the time,

184
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 5: but it's like are you, and I wait for it because.

185
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: Sometimes they go to paying us. That's funny.

186
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for joining us. We've been really

187
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 3: looking forward to talking to you. And I have to

188
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 3: assume you don't do a ton of interviews where you

189
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 3: get to talk about playing a witch who has taken

190
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 3: control of the soul of a teenage boy.

191
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 5: Huh No, not too many interviews on that I'm looking back,

192
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 5: I'm laughing pretty hard in retrospect.

193
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 4: Yes, well, I'll get to a question about that later.

194
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 3: But I know we asked you to watch the episode

195
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 3: kind of as a catalyst to remember this fever dream

196
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 3: of a script. Did you remember a lot about the

197
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 3: Witches of Penbrook or like us, did you feel like

198
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 3: it was watching a totally different person on screen?

199
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: Totally different.

200
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 5: I'm glad I watched it because I.

201
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: Don't think i'd seen it since we did it.

202
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, And first off was like, oh my gosh, the

203
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 5: bleach blonde hair, the cut, like.

204
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: It was just so nineties. It was kind of incredible

205
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: and that was fun.

206
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 5: But then watching the episode, I was like, oh, yeah,

207
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 5: I remember playing playing a witch. And then I'm like, oh,

208
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 5: this is like a little bit spookier and darker than

209
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 5: I remember. And I'm like, huh wait, I said that

210
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 5: we did that, and I was like there was a

211
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 5: lot of making out too.

212
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, a lot of making out. Which the first

213
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 3: thing I wanted to ask you is what was going on?

214
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 3: Were you had just finished your first iconic run of

215
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 3: Full House as DJ Tanner just two years earlier in

216
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 3: ninety five, So what was going on in your life

217
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 3: in nineteen ninety seven when you came and joined us.

218
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 5: Oh my goodness, So I had just gotten married this way.

219
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: Which is crazy.

220
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, because I got married in nineteen ninety six. I

221
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 5: met my husband at eighteen. Then I was going to say,

222
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 5: you were very young, right, That's what I remember about you.

223
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 1: Being on set.

224
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 2: It was like, Wow, she's she's only a couple years

225
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 2: older than us, but she's like married and has this

226
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 2: whole like grown up life that I remember being like.

227
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 4: Why what is that?

228
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: Like, I know it was.

229
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 5: It was I don't even know what was going on

230
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 5: in my life except for that, like because we lived

231
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 5: in LA at.

232
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: The time, or had you left LA for some reason?

233
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 5: He was so I still had always had my home

234
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 5: in LA, but my husband was playing for the Montreal Canadians, right,

235
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 5: so I was living there half the year throughout the

236
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 5: season and then I would come back. So yeah, so

237
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 5: I might not have been in LA like at that time,

238
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 5: depending on when we filmed it, but that was what

239
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 5: was going.

240
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: On in my life.

241
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 5: It was just like marriage, and I was still trying

242
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 5: to work here and there, and then that kind of all,

243
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 5: you know, left. I just put that to rest for

244
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 5: a while, because then a few years later I had

245
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 5: or a year after that, I had Natasha Wool.

246
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 3: So you were visiting us like a few months to

247
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 3: a year after you got married and about a year

248
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 3: before you had your head, before you had Natasha.

249
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 4: Yeh oh, my gosh.

250
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: See interesting transition period.

251
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you had a long, extensive list of impressive

252
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 3: shows that you had guest starred on already. You did

253
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 3: Punky Brewster to Saint Elsewhere, Who's the Boss. Did you

254
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 3: enjoy the process of being a week long guest star

255
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 3: in comparison to what you spent eight years doing like

256
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 3: the star of Full House.

257
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean I liked it. It was fun.

258
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: Sick calling world is I really like it.

259
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 5: I don't know about you, guys, but that is my

260
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 5: favorite place to be. So even with all the movies,

261
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 5: all the television movies I do, the mysteries and the

262
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 5: Christmas movies and all of that, my home is in

263
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 5: multi cam soundstage land.

264
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: I absolutely love it.

265
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 5: So being a guest star, it's always a little bit

266
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 5: intimidating when you're walking on someone's set. And I remember,

267
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 5: for with you guys, you guys were awesome. I already

268
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 5: kind of knew you, like, especially you Danielle, so I

269
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 5: felt comfortable. But I'd finished Full House a year, I

270
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 5: guess a year or two before that, So then I

271
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 5: was really nervous walking on that set, even though you

272
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 5: guys made it great. But I remember being in the

273
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 5: audience or the live show, and we taped that and

274
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 5: had the audience and that's something I'm so used to.

275
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 5: But it was like my heart was pounding that very

276
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 5: first scene. I got so nervous, and then it was like, Okay,

277
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 5: I know.

278
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: How to do this. I couldn't do this.

279
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 5: But and once we got through that first scene, I

280
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 5: was like, Okay, it's like riding a bike. But yeah,

281
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 5: it's always a little different to come on to someone

282
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 5: else's stage because you respect everyone and you want to

283
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 5: do a great job.

284
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: You want to show up and.

285
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 5: You know, and then you just hope that everyone's as

286
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 5: nice and loving and fun as you hope they will be.

287
00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 4: Yes, I know that feeling.

288
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 3: We've talked about it many times, that like you're walking

289
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 3: into someone else's family, the same way you guys were

290
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 3: such a family on Full House.

291
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,319
Speaker 4: You know, we've now been on the air for five years.

292
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 3: We've got that same family, and you're like, hey, guys,

293
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 3: just yeah, So I'm glad that it made it a

294
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 3: good experience for you. And then what do you remember,

295
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 3: if anything, about playing Millie aka Bushcar, Queen.

296
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 4: Of Malevolence, daughter of evil?

297
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 1: What a bizarre laughter? What is going on? I know,

298
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: it's so funny.

299
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 5: I remember when they asked me if I would feel

300
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 5: comfortable and they asked me to do that part, and

301
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 5: they were like, how do you feel about playing a witch?

302
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 5: And I was like, well, I'm an actress, like totally fine,

303
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 5: and I'm this is fun.

304
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: It's sitcom, it's great comedy. I'm good with that, and

305
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: so I yeah, came in just feeling really fun.

306
00:14:54,920 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 5: But now watching the episode, like ah, I.

307
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 3: Said that, I mean, at the very least, I wonder

308
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 3: if it sounded fun to play a character that was

309
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 3: so against type for you totally, and it was fun.

310
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 5: I remember feeling that it was fun. I'm like, no

311
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 5: one would expect this from me, and it's still felt

312
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 5: like a very safe place to do that because of wait,

313
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 5: the show was all about in itself and it's it's

314
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 5: a family show, so I felt comfortable.

315
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: In that way. But but it was a little weird.

316
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 5: I mean, I remember saying some of those lines now

317
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 5: having watched and I'm like, ah, this, this doesn't totally

318
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 5: feel good, saying like I'm the Queen of Darkness, and

319
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 5: they were like, like, say it in the most evil

320
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 5: Rowley voice.

321
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: That voice had my.

322
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 5: Demon voice, and I'm like, I didn't even know I

323
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 5: had one. But as an actor, you're kind of just like, Okay,

324
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 5: let's just have fun with this and do that. But

325
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 5: I'm I'm laughing watching the show.

326
00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 3: I mean, we absolutely loved one of your so much,

327
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 3: and we actually discussed whether or not it could have

328
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 3: possibly been your real voice or if it had been

329
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 3: like boosted by computer BOYO vio.

330
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 4: And it's when you growl.

331
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 3: It's not a costume and I actually pulled the clip,

332
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 3: so I want to play the clip for you.

333
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 4: Listen to this. It's not a costume, so is that

334
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 4: a real boy?

335
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: But that's my real voice? It is you?

336
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: Okay, we were like, is it actually her? Or did

337
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 2: they dub it over?

338
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: That's so funny?

339
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I just I just growled like as

340
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 5: much as I could growl. And I remember the director

341
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 5: actually telling me. At one point we were rehearsing scenes

342
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 5: on that balcony, and he kept saying like, say it

343
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 5: like as dark and evil as you can. And I

344
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 5: kept trying, and he would go like, you're just too sweet.

345
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: I'm just not buying. I just can you just.

346
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 5: And I'm like, I'm trying really hard, and you just

347
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 5: kept going like, just keep practicing it to whatever. So

348
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 5: I was determined to sound like I was a real

349
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 5: evil witch.

350
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh.

351
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 3: Now we've alluded to it a little bit by talking

352
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 3: about how it feels different looking back at it retroactively.

353
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: You are very vocal about your faith and your values

354
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: and how much they play a pivotal role in the

355
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 3: jobs you act in and the jobs you produce. Would

356
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 3: you if you were offered a role like that today,

357
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 3: would you take it? Or do you think that's something

358
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 3: you pass on?

359
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: Here's what I always say. I am an actor. I'm

360
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: not looking to play myself right. So if there was

361
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: a there was a part that called for the evil witch,

362
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: but it was redemptive at the end.

363
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 5: That's what I'm always looking for in my storytelling and

364
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 5: stories of faith, whether they have faith or not, I

365
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 5: just want redemption. So if the through line was like

366
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 5: evil is good, let's keep practicing this.

367
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: My answer would be no, which how does the episode.

368
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 2: End really redeem anybody? And it's so weird because it's

369
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 2: also like suddenly Boyby's world is magic, like there is

370
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 2: real spells in the world, and like, yeah.

371
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah, I mean that exact part if offered today,

372
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 5: I probably.

373
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 3: Not, yeah, because I was thinking about that. It really

374
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 3: just ends with you the witch just failing. So at

375
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 3: least she isn't successful, you know, right, she fails, but

376
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 3: like to writer's point, we also just kind of believe,

377
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 3: but it could have been successful, like as in, it

378
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 3: could have worked exactly, which is all weird. I loved

379
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 3: your hair and I in general just loved the very

380
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 3: cool nineties look.

381
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 4: You had going on.

382
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 3: It was like a little trendier, a little edgier with

383
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 3: some of some of the things we saw with you

384
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 3: as DJ. And now, what are your opinions looking at

385
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 3: it considering all those nineties trends are back in style.

386
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, sometimes I'm like I can't even look at some

387
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 5: of those styles because I've been there, done that, you.

388
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 1: Know, I just like, stay away.

389
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 4: But they do look.

390
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 5: Cute on people twenty five years younger than because right, yeah,

391
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 5: but that was fun.

392
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: I remember right after.

393
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 5: Full House, I cut like all my hair off. I

394
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 5: went into a boy cut. I bleached it blonde because

395
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 5: I just, I don't know, there's something about it. And

396
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 5: I loved every second a full House. But I just

397
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 5: felt like I'm coming into something new, a new place

398
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 5: in my life, and so that's how I exercised.

399
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: Yeah control, I mean an adults, I just like cut

400
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: my hair off and made it bleach blonde.

401
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 2: I totally totally understand that. I feel like we all

402
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 2: kind of had our own version, but for me it

403
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 2: was my hair too. I could not wait to cut

404
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 2: my hair the second Boy These World was over. It

405
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 2: was so essential to just be like it finally in

406
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 2: charge of your own appearance in some way, you know,

407
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,479
Speaker 2: because when you have a whole team and you have

408
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 2: writers and producers, they're all in charge of what you

409
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 2: look like every weekend. So getting away from that was

410
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 2: really important for me too. That's so interesting.

411
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I remember that episode, Danielle, when you cut your

412
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 5: hair on the show. Yes, and I so during Full House,

413
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 5: I had cut my hair. I always had long hair,

414
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 5: and then I cut a bob that was just.

415
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: Above shoulder length.

416
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 5: But I purposely didn't tell the producers, and I did

417
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,199
Speaker 5: it on a random weekend while we were in the

418
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 5: middle of the season, and I just told the hairdresser

419
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 5: to cut my hair. So when I showed up that

420
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 5: Monday at work, I got reprimanded and they were kind

421
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 5: about it, you know, but they took me over and said,

422
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 5: you absolutely can't do this. You should have talked to

423
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 5: us first. And I don't remember if i'd seen the

424
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 5: episode that you cut your hair first, or I cut

425
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,479
Speaker 5: my own hair first, but I just knew if I asked,

426
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 5: they would have said no, or they'd say, well, you

427
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 5: got to wait because we want to write it into

428
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 5: an episode something like that. And you know, it didn't

429
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 5: feel good, but it's so true. You don't have control

430
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 5: of what you look like or what your appearance is.

431
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 5: And then of course when we ended the show, I'm like,

432
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 5: let's just change it all up totally.

433
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,479
Speaker 3: I mean, they they are even you know, in control

434
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 3: of some of the things you do away from stage.

435
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 3: Like writer was very into snowboarding, and it was like,

436
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 3: they don't want you snowboarding.

437
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 4: They don't want you.

438
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: And they found out about and they were like, don't

439
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 1: do that again.

440
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and as a teenager for every teenager, so much

441
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 3: of what you want to do is just shart showing

442
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 3: people how you can make your.

443
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 4: Own decisions and you can do your own thing.

444
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 3: So yeah, when, no matter what kind of incredible, amazing

445
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 3: situation you had on a show that you loved so much,

446
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 3: when it's over, there is a real sense of like,

447
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 3: I'm free, and.

448
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 4: Here's how I'm going to here's how I'm going to

449
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 4: exercise that.

450
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: So, Kendice, how exactly you win? Full House started? I

451
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 1: was ten, I was on from ten to eighteen.

452
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, that's those are some formative years there. So

453
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 2: I started Boy Meets World at thirteen, so it was

454
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 2: thirteen to twenty. So I was like already full on

455
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 2: adolescent when the show started. But you started you were

456
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 2: still very much a kid at ten.

457
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, And isn't it. I know you guys

458
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 5: talk about this all the time, but it is weird

459
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 5: growing up in front of a camera, going through puberty

460
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 5: on national television, and for better or for worse, there's

461
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 5: you know, really wonderful things being able to be on

462
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 5: a television show and be cossful and all of that,

463
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 5: but it's just bizarre when like everyone sees your first ZiT,

464
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:34,879
Speaker 5: your boob's coming in.

465
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: Yes, like whatever, it's weird. Yeah.

466
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 2: What was the hardest transition for you? At what age

467
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 2: or season was the most difficult?

468
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 1: I think.

469
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 5: Probably right around fifteen sixteen, because you know, that's when

470
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,479
Speaker 5: girls really change or I mean, it's the timeline can

471
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 5: be different for anyone, but when you're going through puberty.

472
00:22:58,920 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 1: I think that for.

473
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 5: Me fifteen sixteen and then having episodes like talk about

474
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,679
Speaker 5: you know your weight or things like I you know,

475
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 5: it was always the chubby cheeked girl, and a lot

476
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 5: of people loved that I was. And I can look

477
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 5: back and go like, I was just a normal, normal,

478
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 5: average girl. And yet and yet you meet people and

479
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 5: they're always like, you're so much thinner in person, Oh

480
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 5: my gosh, you're so and you're just like, is that

481
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 5: all people see?

482
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 3: Do?

483
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: They just see my chubby cheeks?

484
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 5: And so it's of course as a teenager you feel

485
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 5: that insecurity, whether you're on television or not. Yes, but

486
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 5: it gets magnified when you are So those ages were

487
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,479
Speaker 5: a little bit more awkward for me. And I just

488
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 5: want to always go back and go I just want

489
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 5: to hug, I want to hug fifteen year old Candice

490
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 5: and go, okay, don't listen to anyone.

491
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: Did you watch the show when it was on the

492
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 1: air back then? Were you keeping up with it? I did?

493
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: They always we got a videotape, a.

494
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 5: VHS tape that you had to pay for, yes, that

495
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 5: we had to pay for, and my mom got every

496
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 5: single one of them, and we taped on the nights

497
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 5: that our show aired.

498
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: So I never really watched it.

499
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 5: On television, but we got the videotape, and I would

500
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 5: watch every episode because I just in that way, I'm

501
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 5: a learner, so I always I do like to watch

502
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 5: whatever I do so that I can see what I

503
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 5: can fit and make better the next time.

504
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 3: Interesting writers stopped watching because he would notice.

505
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 2: The second I think I watched the first season and

506
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 2: I was like, never again, can't do this.

507
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: It's going to be too sub conscious. Yeah. I think

508
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: Jody never watched the episodes either, until maybe she had

509
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: her daughters and watched a few, But no, I watched

510
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: them all.

511
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 3: Did they write an episode about your weight ever? Because

512
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 3: I had one about my weight?

513
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had one.

514
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 5: I had the one where I'm and I had lost

515
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 5: like twenty pounds from the end of one season to another,

516
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,919
Speaker 5: I came in losing twenty pounds, but they thought it

517
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 5: was so great and they were like, oh, on the

518
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 5: opening titles, why don't we have you on an exercise bike,

519
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 5: like just to promote that, And looking back, I don't

520
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 5: think that was bad. I mean, I really put a

521
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 5: lot of hard work and effort into losing twenty pounds.

522
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 5: But the season before I had that episode where it

523
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 5: was like Kimmy and I were going to a pool

524
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 5: party and I didn't want to put a bathing suit on,

525
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 5: so I did a crash diet to try to lose

526
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 5: weight in a week so I wouldn't feel bad about

527
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 5: myself in a bathing suit, and then passed out at

528
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 5: the gym because I wasn't working out. So you know,

529
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 5: and those are those are things that we also that

530
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 5: many of us struggle with. But yeah, you know, you

531
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 5: play it out on television and sometimes it's like, Okay.

532
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 4: Did they talk to you about it before? Like did

533
00:25:58,119 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 4: they call it?

534
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: They did? Okay, they did.

535
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 5: They actually talked to my mom and dad and they

536
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 5: talked to me and said, would you feel comfortable if

537
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,439
Speaker 5: we wrote an episode like this? And I was like, yeah, sure,

538
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 5: but when you're in it and doing it, it feels

539
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 5: a little awkward.

540
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

541
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 3: I remember for me when they when they called me

542
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 3: into the office to tell me they were going to

543
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 3: it wasn't really like they asked. They just kind of said,

544
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 3: you know, we just you know, want you to know.

545
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 3: Obviously it was Will and I. Will had gained some weight.

546
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,400
Speaker 3: I had gained some weight. You know, obviously you guys

547
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 3: have gained a little bit of weight. So we're going

548
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 3: to write an episode about it, and we just wanted

549
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 3: you to know. And here's what it's going to be.

550
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: It's going to be really funny to see my jaw

551
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 1: on the floor right now. What.

552
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I remember that was that being the hardest

553
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 3: part for me was that meeting because Will very much

554
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 3: was like, oh, yeah, I'm totally fine with it just immediately,

555
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 3: which I know now he was very insecure and it

556
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 3: was really painful and powerful for him, but I didn't

557
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 3: know that. And he was very much like he was

558
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 3: so funny and such an amazing actor and was so like, yeah, sure,

559
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 3: that's no problem, that's fine for me. And for me

560
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 3: it was more like, oh wow, like I didn't no

561
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 3: one had said anything to me about it. I had

562
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 3: been aware that I had gained weight, but I was

563
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 3: still you know, I was a size four.

564
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 4: I wasn't like.

565
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,120
Speaker 1: Girl, wasn't like I had let's talk about it.

566
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 3: And so I remember thinking, Wow, they to these people

567
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 3: think I've gained enough weight, we have to write an

568
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 3: entire episode about my weight gain.

569
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 4: And and then and now right now I have.

570
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 3: To say I'm fine with it because they didn't even

571
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 3: present to me another alternative. And even if they did,

572
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 3: I probably wouldn't have felt comfortable being like, yeah, I

573
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:42,919
Speaker 3: don't want to do that.

574
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,919
Speaker 2: If you had canned, if you had said I'm not

575
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 2: comfortable doing that, that would have been the story.

576
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: It is like, oh my gosh, it would have become

577
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: the whole thing.

578
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 2: And it's like, yeah, it's such a weird situation, so

579
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 2: much pressure.

580
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 4: And then yeah, then there was just in my head

581
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 4: forever awful.

582
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 1: Oh I'm so sorry, Like, okay, that just that hurts me.

583
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 5: I am grateful. We had wonderful producers that I really

584
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 5: did love.

585
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: So they did ask.

586
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 5: They asked my parents first first, and then they asked me.

587
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 5: They did ask too, They're like, how would you feel about.

588
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,199
Speaker 1: Having an episode about getting your period, and I was

589
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 1: like no, no, really, no.

590
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 5: No, and they went okay, and they didn't they didn't.

591
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 4: And they didn't push it. Yeah. See that's that's nice.

592
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I you know, we've interviewed a lot of

593
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 3: actors on this show, and a lot of them have

594
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 3: this story. A lot of them have the story of

595
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 3: being told they've gained weight or the episode where they

596
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 3: they're playing a certain character. And especially for the women,

597
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 3: the nineties were a rough time, you know.

598
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 5: So have you seen that TikTok or real that's been

599
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 5: going around about you know, why so many many of

600
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 5: us have eating disorders, such mental disorders of body image.

601
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: And it's this.

602
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 5: Great video that shows like Nicole Ritchie and Jessica Simpson

603
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 5: and maybe even Paris Hilton, like all of these kind

604
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 5: of iconic people, not Paris Hilton, but saying that they

605
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 5: were saying, Oh, you're the chubby one, you're the fat one,

606
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 5: you're the mom Jean's one. And you look at them

607
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 5: and you're like, they're a size too.

608
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: There are six, there are a size eight.

609
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 5: They're like just very still small, average sized people. Anyway,

610
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 5: it's a pretty good, it's a powerful video that's gone

611
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 5: around and I'm like, see, ye, that's what I grew

612
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 5: up with. That was the that was the standard. You're

613
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 5: called fat if you're a size four exactly as a

614
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 5: forty something year old woman like those it's hard to

615
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 5: to get those things out of your mind. They've really

616
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 5: formed and shaped you. You got to do some work to reprogram,

617
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 5: like what is what should be normal?

618
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 4: Yes, well, I'm I'm so great.

619
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 3: Every time I have a conversation with somebody, I'm always like,

620
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 3: it's just there is a It is a weird, comforting

621
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 3: feeling to know there isn't something wrong with me.

622
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 4: That that's my experience.

623
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 3: For all of us who for all of us who

624
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 3: grew up at around that same time with that same experience,

625
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 3: we all say the same things.

626
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 4: I have to reprogram myself.

627
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 3: I still struggle with disordered thoughts about food and disordered

628
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 3: thoughts about working out, and and it has taken a

629
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 3: lifetime to get to a place where I feel like, Okay,

630
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 3: I have got a hand a handle on it. And

631
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 3: even still the bad habits and the bad thoughts can

632
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 3: creep up and I have to rein it back in.

633
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 3: So you know, there is a there is a comfort

634
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 3: in knowing that it's there's nothing wrong with me.

635
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 4: That that's how I feel.

636
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: So no, okay, I feel I know, I'm just mind.

637
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 5: We could keep going about it because I just I

638
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 5: was reading I had a movie come out this past weekend, inside.

639
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 4: The way, what was the movie? Tell me about the movie? First?

640
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 5: Oh, not Unsung Hero. But I have a new mystery

641
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 5: movie series. That's all I called The Ainsley McGregor Mysteries.

642
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,719
Speaker 5: But of course i'm reading comments. I just said, premiered

643
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 5: this week. I want to see what people thought about it.

644
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 5: And most of the comments were very kind, but there

645
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 5: was those handful of what did she do to her face?

646
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 5: Why does she have so much botox?

647
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: Did she get?

648
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 5: You know, an eyelift? Did she get?

649
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 1: Of course those are the only comments you remember. You

650
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 1: don't remember all the hundred positive ones that are like now,

651
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: she's so beautiful, she's aged.

652
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,959
Speaker 2: So gracefully, But you only remember your brain. That's why

653
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 2: you just have to stay away.

654
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 5: Don't mean anything like I just want and I don't

655
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 5: answer them, but I want to go like, no, did

656
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 5: you not watch the movie?

657
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: Because all I could see were my wrinkles. That's all

658
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: I could see.

659
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 5: Because I don't have Botoks. Actually I don't. No, I

660
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 5: didn't get a facelift, and no I'm not on tho

661
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 5: Zepic and like, okay, so anyway, we'll move on.

662
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 3: You know, the the obsession with comments, especially about women's

663
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 3: faces and what have they had done, has gotten to

664
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 3: a point that is just intolerable. You if you click

665
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 3: on the comments on anything a woman has posted, it

666
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 3: will within the first five there's something about too much filler.

667
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 4: That's that's that, that's the end. It's just it's it's it's.

668
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 3: Unbelievable and it yeah, it's uncomfortable and it's painful and

669
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 3: it's hard to read, and like writer said, it's so

670
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 3: hard to not have those be the ones that stick

671
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 3: out to you.

672
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: One of my.

673
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 3: Favorites is that they regularly on the on like the

674
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 3: thumbnail at the bottom of an article where they want

675
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 3: you to click on another one, they use a picture

676
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 3: of me from when I was truly eight and a

677
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 3: half months pregnant, but they only use it from the

678
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 3: shoulders up, and it's a story about like, you'll never

679
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 3: believe what she looks like now, and I'm it was

680
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 3: two weeks before I delivered Adler and yeah, my face

681
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 3: is significantly puffier and I want to be.

682
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 4: Like book guys. Could we just could?

683
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 3: We also just mentioned and a half months pregnant here,

684
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 3: but no, just get those clicks no matter what. So

685
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 3: you and I had obviously done some ABC TGIF related.

686
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 4: Promo work together.

687
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 3: We have also run into each other at a lot

688
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 3: of teen magazines and charity events. We were definitely in

689
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 3: the same circles. Had you ever watched Boy Meets World

690
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 3: before you came and appeared on it?

691
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 5: Oh?

692
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, really did? Of course?

693
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 4: Oh that's so funny.

694
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 2: Thank you.

695
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: Yes, of course I absolutely did. But like I love

696
00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: all the shows from the eighties.

697
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 5: And nineties, all the sitcoms, like they were great, and

698
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 5: I and it was more fun because we knew each other.

699
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: So I also feel like I feel like back.

700
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 5: Then, well I don't want to say like we were

701
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 5: cheering each other on. Its feel competitive. I'm like, this

702
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 5: is so cool the TGIF shows or whatever whatever. I

703
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 5: was just we were all rooting each other on, so

704
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 5: they were really fun to watch. And yeah, and I

705
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 5: think there's always a connection when because again, we are

706
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:39,919
Speaker 5: a specific group of people, whether we know each other

707
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 5: or not, whether we're personal friends or not. But we're

708
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 5: in a really special club together. Yeah, grew up on

709
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 5: television in the nineties, you know, some a little bit

710
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 5: in the eighties, and there's something that's very specific about it.

711
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:59,320
Speaker 5: But and and also experiences that a lot of people

712
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 5: will never have and understand that we share together. So

713
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,959
Speaker 5: just having this conversation feels.

714
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: So cool to me. But of course, like watching your show,

715
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: I always watched it and loved it. It was so fun.

716
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 5: And because there's also the personal connection of going like

717
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 5: I wonder what it's like on their stage, and I

718
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 5: wonder who is doing their hair and makeup, and I

719
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 5: wonder if they get to make the same decisions that

720
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 5: I'm making, or don't get to that I don't get to,

721
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 5: you know, all that kind of stuff you think about.

722
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 3: Well, I can speak intimately to what it was like

723
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,760
Speaker 3: to be on the Full House set because my first

724
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 3: speaking job on television that wasn't a commercial was on

725
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,840
Speaker 3: Full House. I did two episodes. I think it was

726
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 3: your first my very first Oh wow, it was my

727
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 3: outside of doing commercials, so my first TV job. It

728
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,760
Speaker 3: was my first live studio audience. It was so much fun.

729
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 3: The crew, the cast, everybody.

730
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 4: Was so nice.

731
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 3: I walked around and asked for signed headshots from everybody.

732
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 4: Everyone gave me one.

733
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 3: I still have them all in a binder with like

734
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,479
Speaker 3: my call sheets, the script and the ape from each

735
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 3: and every one of you, and then the pictures. My

736
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 3: mom was walking around asking everybody could you take a

737
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 3: picture with Danielle and I have all just the greatest

738
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 3: photos from especially that first week. So I wondered, with

739
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 3: obviously DJ, being such a beloved and well known character

740
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 3: from such a beloved and well known show, do fans ever.

741
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 4: Bring up your appearance on Boy Meets World to you?

742
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, a ton, but I yeah, I get a handful

743
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 5: of comments. And I was actually I was on my

744
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 5: my own podcast. I had a pastor friend of mine

745
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:53,800
Speaker 5: on and before we were talking theology, like deep stuff,

746
00:36:54,800 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 5: and before it started, he was like, Okay, we just

747
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 5: have to talk about Boy Meets World, like before we

748
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 5: even get this whole thing, we just need to talk

749
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 5: about Boy and that episode that you were on, you

750
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 5: were like, it was.

751
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,280
Speaker 1: It was so cute, it was so funny.

752
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 5: But yeah, fans, especially because you know, if they're fans

753
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 5: of your show, sometimes they get me mixed up with

754
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 5: Tapanga or whatever.

755
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: But then they always yeah remember, and they're like, oh

756
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: my gosh, you were on.

757
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 5: An episode of Boy Meets World, and yeah, that's always cool.

758
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 5: So it happens every once in a while.

759
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 3: So, like us, you obviously grew up in the industry.

760
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,799
Speaker 3: Who was your crew? Who were your friends? Who were

761
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,160

Speaker 5: the first four years, I believe, and then went over

786
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:54,760
Speaker 5: to Warner Brothers.

787
00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 3: Wow, okay, now you are producing a ton of movie

788
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 3: and TV. Was that always something you wanted to do

789
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,839
Speaker 3: as you learned more about the business, Where did that

790
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 3: like entrepreneurial spirit come from.

791
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've always been an entrepreneur at heart. So when

792
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 5: I came back into the business, because I took this

793
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,840
Speaker 5: big ten year break when I had my three kids,

794
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 5: and then when I came back, I think I was

795
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,959
Speaker 5: just like I had I had processed things for ten years,

796
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 5: and I'm like, I just came back with a bang.

797
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 1: I was like, if I'm going to do this.

798
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 5: I really want to do this, and it was it

799
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 5: was cool because I had such this time to grow

800
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 5: and evaluate all of the things.

801
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 1: And then when I came back, I was very.

802
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 5: Very happy that casting doors opened for me because you

803
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 5: kind of never know when you take a break that

804
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,360
Speaker 5: long whether people are going to go like, ah, you

805
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 5: were a kid, we don't need Jaz as an adult.

806
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: Right.

807
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 5: They didn't say that to me. It was like, oh,

808
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 5: we remember you and we liked you, so come on in.

809
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 5: And I was grateful for that opportunity. But then I

810
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 5: just you know, I'm a futuristic thinking person. I'm a visionary.

811
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 5: I think we're most of us are all creatives. And

812
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 5: it was like, well, what can I do? And I

813
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 5: would like to do more? But you kind of mentioned

814
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 5: it at the beginning. It was like not having that

815
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 5: control and having everyone tell you what you're going to

816
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,400
Speaker 5: do with your life. I think that's the difference in producing,

817
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 5: where I was like, I don't want to just be

818
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 5: an actor and be told what I can do.

819
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: I want to I want to build the vision. I

820
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,399
Speaker 1: want to build from the ground up and create. And so.

821
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 5: I've Danielle like, I would love to talk to you

822
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 5: so much about directing. I've directed a little bit in

823
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 5: MULTIICAM but which I love. Yeah, but I really found

824
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 5: that producing was more of my sweet spot and what

825
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 5: I really enjoyed doing, even even more than directing because

826
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:46,919
Speaker 5: it's it's so collaborative.

827
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:48,760
Speaker 1: It's all of the puzzle pieces.

828
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 5: It's kind of like playing Tetris and you're just like,

829
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 5: where can I put a round peg into a square hole?

830
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 1: Like how do I for the opposite of that?

831
00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 5: I meant, you know, and so I just I love

832
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,120
Speaker 5: the development process and that's why I really like producing.

833
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 3: As a parent who has taken my children to more

834
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 3: interactive events than I can remember, I am very interested

835
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 3: in your Great American Media's Christmas Festival, which is in

836
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,479
Speaker 3: New York this year. Can you tell us a little

837
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:21,320
Speaker 3: bit about it. I know Danica mckeller is going to

00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 3: be there.

839
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're so excited. This has been a vision for

840
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 5: a couple of years now, and so my company, Candy

841
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 5: Rock Entertainment, is producing this event and it's going to

Speaker 5: the over the Christmas season, really holiday season, like end

844
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 5: of October through I think the first week of January.

845
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 5: But it's a family event, so you know, bring your kids.

846
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 5: You don't have to have a family to come either.

847
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 5: But it's immersive, meaning it's not just it's not like

00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 5: a con because we know there's Christmas Con and those

Speaker 1: They're really great.

852
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:04,839
Speaker 5: You get to meet all the fans, but it's very

853
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 5: autograph driven and picture taking driven, whereas this is a

854
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,439
Speaker 5: holiday event. This is for you to come, eat all

Speaker 1: I don't know yet. I really don't.

872
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,719

Speaker 1: For sure.

875
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 3: And this is all in preparation for a massive Christmas

876
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,760
Speaker 3: season on great American media with a movie you've produced

877
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,760
Speaker 3: and start in coming out soon, A Christmas Less Traveled.

878
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,439
Speaker 3: Tell us what it was that gravitated you to these movies.

879
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 5: Well, it's always interesting every year to be looking at

880
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 5: Christmas scripts.

881
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 1: To develop them, to find a news.

882
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 5: Story that's not that new, because you want the comforts.

883
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 1: Of what we all love in these movies.

884
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:44,400
Speaker 5: So we found a couple of great scripts, and A

885
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 5: Christmas Less Traveled is actually quite heartfelt, and it's a

886
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,560
Speaker 5: journey about this woman that ends up going on a

887
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 5: road trip because her dad passed away and left her

888
00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 5: these cassette tapes and it's all these these things and

889
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 5: stories that he wanted to tell her before he passed,

890
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,319
Speaker 5: but he just didn't have the emotional capability to say

891
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:08,319
Speaker 5: it to her.

892
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: So she goes on this little journey as she listens.

893
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 5: To her dad tell her of these experiences and all

894
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 5: the things that he always wanted to say to her.

895
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 5: So and lessons to be learned, so that one's pretty heartfelt.

896
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: And now I'm going.

897
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 5: Into development right now on a movie with Cameron Mathieson

898
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 5: and he's a huge fan favorite. We're excited to work

899
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,840
Speaker 5: together because we wanted to for about fifteen years and

900
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 5: have you never, ever, never been paired in a movie together.

901
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 5: So we're doing a movie and right now it's called

902
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,880
Speaker 5: The Sweetest Christmas And guess what, guys, We're on a

903
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 5: maple farm and there's lots of Christmas trees.

904
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:47,280
Speaker 3: Oh maple farm, sweet Christmas trees.

905
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:47,879
Speaker 4: I love it.

906
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 2: So with these movies, do you shoot them all in

907
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 2: the same town or do you do you use the

908
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,240
Speaker 2: same crew? Like how does the actual production come together?

909
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 2: Because they are similar, right they sort of. Is it

910
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 2: the same group of people every time in the same place.

911
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: It depends. It's not always the same group of people.

912
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 5: And with all the movies that are produced, you know,

913
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,040
Speaker 5: we shoot them all over they're not they're not all

914
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,760
Speaker 5: done in the same location. But because I've been working

915
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 5: in Canada for a very long time, I've been shooting

916
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 5: up there in BC and typically in Vancouver or Colonna

917
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 5: or Victoria, and so for twenty years, really I've been

918
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 5: shooting there, so I have a lot of the same

919
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 5: people in same crew, and depending how close I'm working

920
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,279
Speaker 5: on movies back to back, sometimes we roll one crew

921
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 5: into another crew, but they still get Everyone gets like

922
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,720
Speaker 5: a three week break while we're prepping for the next movie.

923
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: So I just shot.

924
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:45,480
Speaker 5: One recently, and then I'm prepping now for three weeks

925
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 5: and I go back up there and I'm going to shoot,

926
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 5: so I'll have a lot of familiar faces, but the

927
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 5: cast always feels new.

928
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 3: Right well, speaking of the cast feeling new, today, we

929
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 3: are missing mister Wilford Owll, who would normally have been

930
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 3: here with us. He had a personal thing that popped

931
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 3: up and he could not get out of it, so

932
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:02,919
Speaker 3: he's not here.

933
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 5: I was sad to miss him, and he is so

934
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 5: funny watching that episode back, He's ridiculously funny and his

935
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 5: comedic timing is so so good.

936
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 3: I know I was going to ask you if you

937
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,720
Speaker 3: had any specific memories of working with Will or Matt

938
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:19,200
Speaker 3: that week.

939
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:24,440
Speaker 5: I I just honestly like, I just remember loving them both,

940
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 5: like all three of you. But I think we only writer.

941
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 5: We only had a couple of scenes. They were very short,

942
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 5: exactly and.

943
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 3: Writer is the most carefree, fun loving I've ever seen

944
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 3: sean episode.

945
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 1: I'm just kind of floating.

946
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 5: I remember being slightly weirded out that I was kissing

947
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 5: Matthew and not Joey.

948
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 1: Because of the age, I think a little bit of that,

949
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 1: but also because.

950
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 5: Like I knew, like I knew Joe and then I

951
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 5: was and now I'm like kissing his little brother, and

952
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,880
Speaker 5: so that was a little at the time felt a

953
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:05,840
Speaker 5: little bit funny.

954
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 1: And then I just remember thinking how funny Will was,

955
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: and I was like, I just like you. I just

956
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 1: like you as a person. Yeah, you're cool, dude.

957
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 4: He's funny and he's cool.

958
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,239
Speaker 3: Also, I wanted to let our listeners know that they

959
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,600
Speaker 3: can watch you as Ainsley McGregor in the Ainsley McGregor

960
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 3: Mysteries A Case for the Wine Maker on Great American Family,

961
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 3: which is out now, and you continue the franchise is

962
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:31,800
Speaker 3: Ainsley Solving Mysteries.

963
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 4: And our question for you today.

964
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 3: Is if Will was going to play a criminal, what

965
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 3: criminal would Will play.

966
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:42,919
Speaker 5: I think he would be some kind of con man

967
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,400
Speaker 5: because he's such a good actor, so he would just

968
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 5: he could be all the things, and you just don't

969
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:50,400
Speaker 5: even know what's.

970
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: Real give him different accents and different outfits. Go, that's great.

971
00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:00,040
Speaker 3: Oh that's a really that's it. That's brilliant. Well, and

983
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 3: Exactly what she said, and it's you know, we realized it.

984
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:30,920
Speaker 3: We talked about it so much when we started season

985
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 3: one of doing the pod. It's amazing what an unspoken

986
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 3: shared Bondah.

987
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, all of.

988
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 3: Us, you know, former child actors, nineties actors, whatever you

989
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,320
Speaker 3: want to call it, growing up in that time doing

990
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:48,879
Speaker 3: what we did.

991
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,840
Speaker 4: There's such a it's a it's a big.

992
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,279
Speaker 3: Community, but a very very small community when you really

993
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 3: think about it, and.

994
00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 2: It's very different from I'm what I imagine being a

995
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,400
Speaker 2: kid actor now is like you know, or or from

996
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 2: what I've experienced, even I mean, you get to work

997
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 2: with kids all the time, but for me on Girl

998
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 2: Meets World, like just their sense of their own careers

999
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,959
Speaker 2: is completely I always felt like none of us had

1000
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,359
Speaker 2: any idea what was going on, Like we had we

1001
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 2: were like listening to lucky if we were lucky to

1002
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,760
Speaker 2: have an agent like Judy Savage, we would take their advice,

1003
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,320
Speaker 2: but none of us had a plan for the future

1004
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,520
Speaker 2: or how. And I feel like now there's much more

1005
00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 2: sort of predictable pathways of like you're on a Disney show,

1006
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 2: you get an album deal and you do you know,

1007
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 2: and like they have there's so much more ambitious and

1008
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,160
Speaker 2: in a way good about it. You know, they know

1009
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 2: how to think about themselves in contextualize it. And the

1010
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 2: way that at that time I just felt like we

1011
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 2: were flailing and none of us had an hangy of

1012
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 2: what was going on. And yet but yeah, it's super

1013
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 2: interesting the way that like there's all these people that

1014
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 2: I know and I don't actually know them that well,

1015
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 2: Like I don't, you know, I don't I don't have

1016
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 2: many memories of like talking to Julie White that often,

1017
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:55,799
Speaker 2: but sure enough if I see him, I'm like, yep,

1018
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:57,560
Speaker 2: you and me we get each other, you know, it's

1019
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 2: like and there's that that community.

1020
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 1: It's a very interest connection. Yeah, I know.

1021
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:04,880
Speaker 3: And something else I thought of with her that you

1022
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:06,959
Speaker 3: know she talks about she took that ten year break

1023
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:09,080
Speaker 3: where she was married and she decided to start a

1024
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,360
Speaker 3: family and she took ten years off. So much of

1025
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:13,959
Speaker 3: what I say about my own career, I really hurt

1026
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 3: my I think I hurt myself in my career if

1027
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 3: I wanted to be an actor by taking a couple

1028
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 3: just even a couple of years off, but really maybe

1029
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 3: it wasn't long enough off.

1030
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:25,879
Speaker 4: Like I think about what she said where she.

1031
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:27,799
Speaker 3: Was like, yeah, I did a couple of things, but

1032
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,160
Speaker 3: then I just really stepped away for ten years.

1033
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 4: And then when she came.

1034
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,400
Speaker 3: Back, there was a oh yeah energy you there was

1035
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 3: an energy and an excitement and like she's now new

1036
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:38,279
Speaker 3: because we haven't seen her at all.

1037
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,799
Speaker 2: And like one one of my best friends said that

1038
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 2: to me when I didn't get a part in a

1039
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,400
Speaker 2: movie that I really wanted, I think when I was

1040
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 2: about twenty five or twenty six, and he was like,

1041
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:50,279
Speaker 2: you know what, writer, it hasn't been long enough. You

1042
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,240
Speaker 2: should just quit acting and come back in your thirties,

1043
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:55,759
Speaker 2: and I remember thinking like, huh, okay, I didn't. I

1044
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 2: just ended up keep acting for a little while and

1045
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:58,840
Speaker 2: then quit when I was about thirty.

1046
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,959
Speaker 1: Just stop. It was good advice. I was like, that's true.

1047
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 1: I didn't, you know.

1048
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,640
Speaker 2: But it's hard to think of yourself in those ways.

1049
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,360
Speaker 2: You'd think like, oh, I just gotta keep working or

1050
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna you know, but yeah, and that's what yeah again,

1051
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 2: like having any sort of objectivity and like knowledge about

1052
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 2: how acting careers work like that, I was always just

1053
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 2: stumbling through it, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1054
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 3: We didn't have like a business plan. We didn't think

1055
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,360
Speaker 3: of it like uh, you know, yeah, we just didn't.

1056
00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 3: So anyway, I thought that was really smart and I

1057
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,719
Speaker 3: thought that was really interesting that, you know, then while

1058
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 3: she was away she got reinspired and had all these

1059
00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 3: new ideas. Anyway, thank you all for joining us for
