Speaker 1: But let's let's go.

52
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 2: Back and start with your origin story first.

53
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: Because I don't know if I even know this what

54
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: age you started acting. I know you're from Argentina's so

55
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: did you move to the US to become an actor

56
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 1: or tell us everything about how you started in this business.

57
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 5: Really feel like, if I remember right, you went from

58
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 5: like Argentina sort of through Europe around and then kind

59
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 5: of to the States.

60
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well okay, so it all it's really confusing.

61
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 4: We do confusing well on this show. So it's fine,

62
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 4: go for it. Yeah, it's our brand.

63
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: Yeah. Obviously I was born in Argentina to an Italian

64
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 3: dad Argentinian mom, and around twelve thirteen, I said to

65
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 3: my mom, I really want to study in Europe and

66
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 3: my mom said, absolutely, no way, You're going to study

67
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 3: in Europe when you're twenty. You know, and life have,

68
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 3: you know, things happen strange ways. One day I'm going

69
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 3: to school and I see this little paper that says,

70
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 3: would you like to finish high school in Italy in

71
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 3: English for two years? And so I, without telling my parents,

72
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 3: I actually applied to this thing. And it was basically

73
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 3: a scholarship to finish school in Italy in this bizarre

74
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 3: place called the United World College in a remote town.

75
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 3: And I do this test, I get in and then

76
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 3: my and then I tell my parents, oh, I got

77
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 3: a scholarship to finish high school in Italy. And they

78
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 3: were both like in shock, but also well, you can't

79
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 3: say no. I mean it was anssive opportunity. This is

80
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 3: called the United World College, And yeah, I kind of

81
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 3: went there from Argentina to Italy to finish high school

82
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 3: in this beautiful place that we can talk about later

83
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 3: because this part of the film yeah yeah, oh yeah,

84
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 3: but it was kind of like a Hogwarts nation, you know,

85
00:04:54,279 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 3: students from world two hundred students and you're literally finishing

86
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 3: a high school. It's nothing more than that, but it's

87
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 3: pretty spectacular because obviously you leave everything behind at like

88
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 3: fifteen years old, sixteen, you can't you know, when you

89
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 3: have a crisis, you don't have mom to hug you

90
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 3: you know you really, but also these kids become your family.

91
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, travels. I mean I always tell my kids.

92
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 5: I've sent them on school trips to Japan and to Europe,

93
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 5: and I'm like, travel, go find out that you can

94
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 5: do stuff by yourself. I mean they're not by themselves,

95
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 5: but still, like, you know, it's so I just it's

96
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 5: so important. Yeah, God, I wish I could have finished

97
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 5: high school in Italy.

98
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, it's amazing, pretty lucky.

99
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, were they all the same age around this, fifteen

100
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: and sixteen? Because it's called college, which to me means.

101
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 5: A college in Europe though, is like high school, isn't

102
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 5: it sort it's just a university is more like what

103
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 5: they call our version of college.

104
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,679
Speaker 3: It should be called high school. But yeah, it's it's

105
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 3: it's really that. It's that age where everyone just before finishing.

106
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 3: I don't know how in America.

107
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 4: It is the last two year junior senior year probably would.

108
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 3: Be yeah exactly. So that's what it is. And that

109
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 3: place kind of gave me the wings really because I

110
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 3: before going there, I wasn't really a performer. Before going there,

111
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 3: I thought I was going to be a Disney animator.

112
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 3: That was my thing.

113
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 5: Like, I really, Yeah, my mom's an artist, right, yea,

114
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 5: your mom's a really talented artist artist.

115
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 3: And I grew up with that. I grew up with

116
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 3: a lady who could draw and sculpt and things and

117
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 3: and I kind of loved all that, and I loved

118
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 3: being by myself. But somehow going to the college opened

119
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 3: me up, and all of a sudden, I went from

120
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,119
Speaker 3: being like the shy kid at school to the one

121
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 3: who would be performing and doing dances and doing you know,

122
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 3: theater stuff. And so yeah, it was there that I

123
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 3: kind of discovered, oh, I really like being on stage.

124
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's really how how in my mind it

125
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 3: was really planted because I don't know why, but I

126
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 3: went up to the headmaster's office and I said, I

127
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 3: would I think college should have its first music ever music,

128
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 3: And he goes, okay, with one condition, you put it together,

129
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 3: you directed, and I don't want to know about it.

130
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 3: Just go and here's some money to produce. And all

131
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 3: of a sudden, I had this power to put on

132
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 3: a show. I had never done that in my life,

133
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 3: and so we did. So I learned by doing by.

134
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 5: What a gift though from that head master of confidence

135
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 5: in a young person to go, you know what, you

136
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 5: can do this? You go do it, figure it out.

137
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 5: You're gonna make it. You guys, do it Like that's

138
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 5: so improdive. It was incredible.

139
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it really, Like to this day, I go, what

140
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 3: on earth you know was he thinking giving this kid?

141
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 3: I mean, surely I don't know why, but anyway, it

142
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 3: just happened that way, and it sort of gave me

143
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 3: this responsibility of going, Okay, so what do I do?

144
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 3: And so I had to learn to cast, I had

145
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 3: to learn to direct, I had to learn to act

146
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 3: because I was also playing Danny. This was Grease. It

147
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 3: was gre Yes, I'm like directing it playing Danny's rouco

148
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 3: like dealing with the details and the costumes and sonya.

149
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 3: You could say that that college really gave me the

150
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 3: beginning of then what I think now is my life,

151
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 3: which is a bit of a jack of all trades.

152
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 3: And I like a lovely pressure and I can sing,

153
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 3: I can dense, and can draw and direct.

Speaker 3: have a scholarship. So yeah, so that kind of like

216
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: I was like this and like that, and I called

217
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 3: every single acting school to see for scholarships or whatever.

218
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 3: No one had anything. I was dejected. I was going

219
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 3: to go back to Argentina. How was all in my

Speaker 3: a trip back, and but I didn't. Walking down the

222
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 3: street in London and I see this big, massive billboard

223
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 3: that says cuts the music. I go, well, I like musicals,

224
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 3: and I feel like crap. And so I go to

225
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 3: the box office and I said, do you have a

226
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 3: do you have a ticket? Yes? And I only had

227
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 3: fifty pounds in my pocket because that's the only thing

228
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 3: that the home gave me to eat. Okay, that's it.

229
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 3: And so the lady goes, yeah, it's fifty pounds front row.

230
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 3: Oh okay, And I'm like fine, I'm just so depressed

00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 3: that I'm like what, Like, what does it matter anyway?

232
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 3: Who cares say that one of those lost?

233
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 5: It's kind of when you get to that point, like

234
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 5: it's a very freeing point in a weird.

235
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 4: Way where you're like, listen, sure, who cares? You know what?

236
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,319
Speaker 3: I don't read my last fifty pounds? Yeah, so take it,

237
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 3: take it. I sit in the front row. The lights

238
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:18,199
Speaker 3: go down, and then all of these cats starting.

239
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 4: About right right as as cats is about.

240
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 3: I can't tell I can't believe I'm telling you this story.

241
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 3: But anyways, all the cats start dancing and like they're amazing,

242
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 3: and you know, I don't know if you remember, but

243
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 3: the original version of cats basically they come up to

244
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 3: you and yeah, yeah.

245
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, they definitely did. Was they There was a lot

246
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 5: of more audience. Well I think it's still I haven't

247
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 5: seen it live, but yeah, I remember very much.

248
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 3: Like that was the thing, right, they came to people

249
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 3: and they started dancing to people. Anyway, I thought I

250
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 3: was the only person in the audience, like I had

251
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 3: all these cats like dancing with I was. I was

252
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 3: like aroused. I was honest, I was like all of

253
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 3: the things. And so the show finishes and I'm just

254
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 3: in seven Heaven and I go and I check where

255
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 3: these cats come from, Like where what they study?

256
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 5: Right?

257
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: Right?

258
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 4: Yeah?

259
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 3: Where are these cats? Yeah? Where did you get these cats?

260
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 3: And so the course that I had the scholarship was acting.

261
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 3: But then I realized this is more of a dance

262
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 3: musical kind of thing. And so I call and they

263
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 3: all come from London Studio Center. And so I call

264
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 3: London Studio Center and they say, yeah, yeah, we're we're

265
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 3: looking for boys, and tomorrow we have auditions. And so

266
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 3: I go to tomorrow to the auditions and I had

267
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 3: never taken a dance class in my life, and I

268
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 3: had to do ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary. I call it

269
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 3: ithn And at the end of the day they call

270
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 3: me to the office and they go, well, we want

271
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 3: to take a chance on you because you have that

272
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 3: desperation going on.

273
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: That we like.

274
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 4: Or skill.

275
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 3: I'm skill and so yeah, they did give me a scholarship,

276
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 3: and I stayed in London as a dancer, wanting to

277
00:14:58,600 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 3: be a cat.

278
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 4: Right, So when people ask you how your career started.

279
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 5: You go, well, I really just wanted to be a

280
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 5: cat and then a dancing cat. Yeah.

281
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah, and that's really the beginning of everything

282
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 3: because after that there's three years of ballet contemporary and

283
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 3: jazz and singing and acting and so it was the

284
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 3: triple threat school.

285
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 4: You could, Yeah, you kind of found where you were

286
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 4: supposed to be.

287
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, but from accidents, you know, like, well.

288
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 5: That's always how it is, right, You're like everything you

289
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 5: sort of fall into something.

290
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 4: You go, oh, oh, you know came together.

291
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 5: What a beautiful story though, Like that's such an adventure

292
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 5: and such a testament to your like driven personality and

293
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 5: your sense of like I'm just going to do it.

294

296
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 5: sign up for this school. I'm gonna ask if I

297
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 5: can get into this school having never danced in my life.

298
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 5: Like just that that takes balls, like it takes it

299
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 5: takes a lot of courage and uh and I just

300
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 5: admire that in you because how did all of us

301
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 5: have that.

302
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 3: It's coming to trouble too?

303
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 4: Well look, yeah.

304
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 3: But that's not important.

00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 4: What's important.

306
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:31,280

00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 4: Those were the other things.

308
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: So what prompted you to move to the United States?

309
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 3: When did that happen? Well, that happened many many years later,

310
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 3: because London for me was the twenty All my twenties

311
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 3: happened in London. So all all my being poor, living

312
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 3: with rats, doing seven jobs at the same time, all

313
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 3: of that happened in London. And it got to a

314
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 3: point where it was really tiring for me to feel

315
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 3: like I wasn't advancing in in in acting because obviously,

316
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 3: after after the school I started first one musical was Chicago,

317
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 3: and that was like my one Okay, now I want

318
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 3: to I want to try being the guy in the front, right,

319
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 3: So then that's when the acting kind of really caught on.

320
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 3: And but yeah, it was like seven years after the

321
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 3: Color seven years of struggle and struggle and struggle and

322
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 3: always playing like the waiter, you know, and the small, small, small,

323
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 3: small parts, and so I was kind of getting tired,

324
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 3: even though I did do my Moa Mia in the

325
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 3: period with a big, big, big movie, but again I

326
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 3: was just you know, a tiny, tiny part, and I

327
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 3: just wanted to do what it was like to to

328
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 3: kind of have lines, right, I want to speak right.

329
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 4: You're like, I don't want to be a man in

330
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 4: coffee shop number two.

331
00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 3: That's exactly. So this chance came to to to go

332
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 3: to Spain and audition for another big musical project, which

333
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 3: was Saturday Night Fever, and that was to play the

334
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 3: lead to play Tony ONNY. Two really important moments in

335
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 3: my love had to do with things that Travolta what

336
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 3: God famous for. Oh yeah, I agree, Oh yeah, I

337
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,719
Speaker 3: got that. And then I moved to Spain and I

338
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 3: became you know this guy and he was the most

339
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 3: amazing university to have that amount of pressure every single

340
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 3: night on my shoulders because if I had an off day,

341
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 3: no old fellow, I had to like at this level

342
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 3: every night. So that was a huge lesson.

343
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 4: That's incredible. Yeah, theater actors, I'm always.

344
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 3: Like, how do you do it?

345
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 4: Like how every night?

346
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 5: I mean it's such a like you know, you were

347
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 5: asking Ben Platt that. I was like, how do you

348
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 5: just lay it on the floor every night?

349
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 4: It's so hard?

350
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 3: But you don't have of a life outside of the show.

351
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 3: You you sleep, you.

352
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 5: Eat, you wake up, you go back to work. Yeah,

353
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 5: so you love it. It's amazing, and it's.

354
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 3: It was really, it was amazing. It was amazing because

355
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 3: it just gave me all kinds of good stuff, like

356
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 3: the joy of dancing and singing and acting every single

357
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 3: night and entertaining people. And but also yeah, that that

358
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 3: kind of responsibility, which I loved. Shed a responsible. So

359
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 3: so yeah, after four years in Spain, I did little

360
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 3: things and I thought, you know what, I'm in my thirties.

361
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,880
Speaker 3: I always always always wanted to go to La and

362
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:42,360
Speaker 3: try the Hollywood thing. Always since I was five. When

00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 3: The outer image of Hollywood, which is very very enticing.

369
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you get to and you're like, we was, Oh, it's.

375
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 3: I'm going to spare you how but I had a

376
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 3: manager and she basically just just sent my my, my

377
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 3: CV to every single casting agent and and it was

378
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 3: too lucky. I was just too lucky because because I

379
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 3: arrived on a Monday and on the Saturday, I was

380
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 3: already cast in Dallas the show Dallas. Wow. So it's

381
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 3: so lucky to start in Hollywood that way. But I

382
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 3: could say, you know what I struggled for, like to say,

383
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 3: you were lucky when you got here.

384
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 4: But it's not like it just fell in.

385
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 5: Your lap, like you you put in the work and

386
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 5: the dudes it was time.

387
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 4: It was just your time. You earned it.

Speaker 1: Yep.

389
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. So so anyway, that's how, that's how. And really

390
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 3: I met you. You were my third job in the States.

391
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 2: Really, Oh my gosh, that's wild.

392
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: What what was your first thought when you got the

393
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: call to audition for Fuller House?

394
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 4: Did you know about Full House?

395
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: Had you ever seen it?

396
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 3: Did you?

397
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: We were like, what is this sitcom? Right?

398
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 4: What am I doing here? Gibbler?

399
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I have to be honest, I wasn't that

400
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 3: familiar with I knew the show. But third World country,

401
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 3: we in Argentina did not get Full House. Oh really

402
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 3: got others. We got like friends, We got the Nanny

403
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 3: didn't get full House. So even though I knew about

404
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 3: it because you sort of know from I wasn't familiar,

405
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 3: which was a wonderful thing for me to not know.

406
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 3: When I went into that audition, I had like it

407
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 3: was kind of like Black State. And do you remember,

408
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 3: do you remember the Pilot season days when everyone was right.

409
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 5: When you've several, like a couple months of your life

410
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 5: you spent just driving all over LA going to auditions

411
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 5: and getting callbacks and hoping that this would be the season.

412
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,439
Speaker 3: Well that's that's what happened. Like after Dallas, I played

413
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 3: Jesus Christ, which was pretty incredible, and that was a

414
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 3: whole thing in itself, and so I was like, I'm

415
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 3: a serious I'm going to do serious work yep. And

416
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 3: then and then rived all right, And it was the

417
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 3: most awful Pilot season ever because I went from from

418
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 3: playing like the most beautiful human god you know, in

419
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 3: the history, I was just getting rejection and rejection and

420
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 3: able to to kind of access. It was a time

421
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 3: and I was, you know, it was weird for me.

422
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,479
Speaker 3: I was like what am I doing? And so I

423
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 3: did like forty castings that wow, that's a lot. And

424
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 3: the last one, Uh, it's would you audition for the

425
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 3: sitcom Revival? And I was kind of I was, I was,

426
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 3: I was angry. I was like, what's me? But are

427
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,959
Speaker 3: you funny? She says my manager. I don't know if

428
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 3: I'm funny. Well, I told them you were really funny,

429
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 3: So you go and so yeah, I go in and

430
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 3: and this, and and I see tons of guys exactly

431
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 3: looking like me, and everyone's so funny because I'm outside

432
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 3: listening to everyone laugh. Oh.

433
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,679
Speaker 4: That was the worst part of auditioning, though.

434
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 5: Would be in the hallway and you could hear through

435
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 5: the door and you're like, oh, that was a good choice,

436
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 5: But now I can't make that choice, like I exactly, I.

437
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 2: Really like them with your mind is just.

438
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 3: It does because yeah, yeah, And then you know, you

439
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 3: talk to casting directors and they're like, well, we do

440
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 3: that to make the actor feel better, like because from

441
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 3: where I was sitting, I thought the guys were hilarious,

442
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 3: like they would laugh so hard and then the guy

443
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 3: go was it? And they not only laugh like hell,

444
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 3: but the guy leaves, They shut the door in my face,

445
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 3: they replay his tape, they laugh again, and they go,

446
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 3: oh my god, he's amazed. Oh, I'm just thinking.

447
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 4: That's oh God, You're like, I'll go home now.

448
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 3: Thanks guy, casting number forty five. Oh but you know,

449
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 3: it's like that choice. It's like the fifty pounds in

450
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 3: the pocket. I went, I either give up right now

451
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 3: because this guy got it, or I I am a

452
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,360
Speaker 3: clown and I had just become like an absolute tit

453
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 3: of myself. Yeah, and I did. I just went in

454
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 3: there and I was just so yeah, yeah, and yeah.

455
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 4: That was it. That's how they were like, that is

456
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 4: exactly full House.

457
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 5: Yeah.

458
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: I remember doing a screen test with you and Sony,

459
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 1: like they had already cast Sony as our daughter Ramona,

460
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: and so yeah, Jeff told me like, yeah, like he's

461
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 1: great and he's perfect. But the but Warner Brothers or Netflix,

462
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: one of the two, they were nervous, like is he

463
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: funny because he's this dramatic, serious actor, right, So like

464
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ to full of House. Yeah, it's so they

465
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: put us all in that little theater room where we

466
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: were doing our screen test, and it was it was

467
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: just magic from the very.

468
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 3: Beginning, very beginning. Immediately, it was it was as soon

469
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 3: as I met you. I of course I didn't have

470
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 3: the job, but it felt like it was a done thing.

471
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 3: So it was just so loving and sweet. And there's

472
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 3: so many nerves when you're testing for anything like that,

473
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 3: and it feels very daunting because you're in this room,

474
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 3: this tiny theater, with cameras everywhere and some suits in

475
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 3: the dark.

476
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 4: Yeah.

477
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 3: Right, it's intimidating.

478
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 4: It's for me, and I had already had the job,

479
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:56,640
Speaker 4: and I'm nervous. Maybe I'm gonna get fired.

480
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 3: I don't know, so I was, but I don't even

481
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 3: remember what we did.

482
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 4: It was.

483
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: It was a scene that it was like one of

484
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: those made up scenes, like it didn't ever make it

485
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 1: to the show.

486
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 2: It was just some Jeff test.

487
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: Scene, So I don't remember what it was about either.

488
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, it was always you.

489
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 3: I knew it. I could feel it.

490
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 2: You can feel it in the room like I could

491
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 2: feel it.

492
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 4: I'm like, it's him.

493
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 5: You guys have the best chemistry. Like it was just

494
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,239
Speaker 5: it was so great. It was so instant and you

495
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 5: guys and Sony. First of all, I'm pretty sure she

496
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 5: actually might be your child because she looks like she

497
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 5: could totally be your guys's kid, like wild totally. But

498
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 5: like you guys had to such I just wanted. I

499
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 5: was like, I want more of that. I wanted to

500
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 5: watch all of you guys, like the Gibblers were the Gibbler,

501
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 5: Fernande's head good, Fernandez, Gredos were just amazing. I love them. So, yeah,

502
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 5: you guys really had it right off the bat.

503
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

504
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not a bragger, but it's true, like

505
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: we we had just popping chemistry, and Teddy from Netflix

506
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: was always was obsessed with our chemistry.

507
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 4: You guys so much.

508
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 3: Yeah. I have to say though, it was such a

509
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 3: unique and interesting microcosm that happens when like entering into yours.

510
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 3: This is your world, like this what's your world from

511
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,719
Speaker 3: day one, from when you were kids, And so I

512
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 3: have to say, as an experience to step into this

513
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 3: thing where it is not theater, it is not film,

514
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 3: it's this thing in between, it's kind of both, kind

515
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 3: of both. You were playing to an audience really, but

516
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,880
Speaker 3: at the same time, I don't know, that's just some

517
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 3: magical thing that I had never experienced before. And I

518
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 3: don't even know if all sitcoms are like that. I

519
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 3: think it was just this one. I felt that the

520
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 3: moment we did that first episode and DJ opens the

521
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 3: door and goes Fernandez and I was crabbing my plants.

522
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 3: I was so nervous because I saw, you know, I

523
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 3: knew that people get fired in these things and whatever.

524
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 3: And You're like, oh, this is my first moment, and

525
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,959
Speaker 3: if I screwed up, I probably you know. And I

526
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 3: just remember how the moment that or opened and I

527
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 3: just had to say, DJ, that's it.

528
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you know right off the bat that you two.

529
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, immediately something happened. Everyone erupted in laughter. They didn't

530
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 3: know who I was, and all of a sudden, it

531
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 3: was like as if Juan Pablo the actor stepped into

532
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 3: this bizarre, like parallel universe and I just knew who

533
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 3: Fernando was. I knew who you guys were, Like, I

534
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 3: don't know what happened. It wasn't research, it wasn't it

535
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 3: was literally just stepping into this kind of weird, cumbersome, strange,

536
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 3: funny world. Because really full and fuller house. It's kind

537
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 3: of like a fantasy, isn't it. It's like, sure.

538
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 5: In San Francisco, other than the Tanners, they get every

539
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 5: job and all of the attention. It's incredible, really, Yeah,

540
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 5: they are a very special family in San Francisco.

541
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 3: So yeah, but you, I mean, your girls helped me

542
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 3: so much and feeling it's so important to feel, like

543
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 3: you said at the beginning of the podcast, like family,

544
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 3: because you are You're just there pretty much all day,

545
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 3: every day. So you could not imagine what it would

546
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,959
Speaker 3: be like to be in that situation and with like

547
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 3: bad people any sense, right.

548
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 5: I have fortunately never had that experience on SID I've

549
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 5: never had. I mean there's people that have been better

550
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 5: or you know, worse, but like never super problematic. And

551
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 5: I just couldn't imagine working. I mean, you hear about it.

552
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 5: These shows were like the two leads hated each other

553
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 5: and then they've got to be making out. I'm like

554
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 5: I could Oh god, I couldn't do it.

555
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 6: Were the icky and especially when you have to be

556
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 6: funny and made people laugh, right, yeah, arguing because of

557
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 6: a joke because like, I don't like like it would

558
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 6: it would be so strange.

559
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 3: So we had we had to make each other laugh.

560
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 3: And that's how things actually got better and better because

561
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 3: because if if Andrea laughed inside and if you laughed inside,

562
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 3: then I knew that it would work and vice versa. Yeah. Yeah,

563
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 3: so it's a very joyful. It was a very joyful

564
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 3: five years, right. I loved how.

565
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: Our relationship developed, I mean our fictional relationship.

566
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 2: I've loved you for you know, since the day I

567
00:30:59,240 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 2: met you.

568
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: But like for Kimmy and Fernando, it started off a

569
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: little dicey because the way Jeff wrote the pilot was

570
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: that Fernando committed adultery.

571
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 4: You know, you cheated.

572
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: Fernando cheated on and the fans were so upset about

573
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: that they did not want Kimmy to take him back

574
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: because of this how Jeff wrote the pilot. And I

575
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 1: feel like that that changed because once the writers saw

576
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: our chemistry and just how we had this love hate

577
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: we you know, like we could argue, we could make

578
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: out like we did.

579
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 2: We did it all and it all worked.

580
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: And so I think that's why they were like, I

581
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: think that was a misstep to make Fernando an adulterer,

582
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 1: but they course corrected along the way, but a lot

583
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: of fans couldn't let go of that.

584
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 2: They were mad at Fernando.

585
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 5: Well, it was kind of Fernando was just kind of

586
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 5: the you know, the smooth, the talking race car driving,

587
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 5: haircutting stylist, you know, talker.

588
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 4: I think I get that people were very protect of

589
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 4: their protect characters.

590
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, well because I always say you're the

591
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 3: original Phoebe. So so when this came, when when this

592
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 3: character in twenty twenty was it twenty sixteen that we

593
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 3: did it right? I think everyone just appreciated can be

594
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 3: so much a reason she was this lovable, lovable oddball,

595
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 3: And so you're right, I think, yeah, people got really protected.

596
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 3: But also hadn't Fernando done one wrong thing, then this

597
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 3: kind of fiery thing wouldn't wouldn't have been there, So.

598
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 5: I yeah, exactly, it was a yeah, that was it

599
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 5: needed that undertone of like slight anger.

600
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 4: But also like I love you, but I hate you. Yeah,

601
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:48,719
Speaker 4: laid attention.

602
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: That's a good point.

603
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 3: That's a good point.

604
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. That set us up for on again, off again,

605
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: getting married, getting engaged, getting breaking up, like all of

606
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 1: the back and forth, which was so funny you did

607
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: and you were spectacular. I mean they asked so much

608
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: of you. Oh my god, it's an actor.

609
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 4: Like a lot of us.

610
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 5: There was well, every was some sort of like what

611
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 5: wild thing are we doing this week? It's a musical number,

612
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 5: We've got a stunt, there's a wild costume music.

613
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 3: God knows what.

614
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they but especially you being I know, because

615
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: you were such a serious actor. You were a SESPI

616
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: and like so serious about your craft, and here they

617
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: are putting you in like a pink silk nightie, you know,

618
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 1: with your buns sticking out, and I'm just like, poor.

621
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 3: the show at huse. Oh my god. So it was like,

622
00:33:55,880 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 3: after all those years of seriousness, it was the exact

623
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 3: antidote for loving, like loving my profession again, because you know,

624
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,839
Speaker 3: when you struggle so much, because I sure I had great,

625
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 3: great things here and there. But but what people don't

626
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 3: understand is that life of actors is actually quite tough.

627
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I think right now, like everyone's getting a

628
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 3: taste of that.

629
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, everyone's Is there any job? Anybody want to do

630
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 5: some art around here?

631
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 3: Exactly? Yeah? And so you sort of have to train

632
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 3: yourself not to get feel personal about rejection and the

633
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,760
Speaker 3: node in the days that you have to wait tables

634
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,280
Speaker 3: at DA DA day and sometimes you know, a small

635
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 3: one liner feels like an amazing win, which it is.

636
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 3: So when you're able to have something where you're like, oh,

637
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 3: I'm getting paid for this and I get to play

638
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 3: alas so so so lucky. And then of course when

639
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 3: you find you know, people like like you two. I

640
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 3: mean I just I just remember we got to the

641
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 3: place where we would I would just literally look at you, Jody.

642
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 3: We didn't have a word and we knew exactly what

643
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:21,800
Speaker 3: was happening.

644
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 2: Mind readers.

645
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, oh yeah it was Yeah. I would just

646
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 5: look at you and me like, no word, no, no, we.

647
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 4: Just knew each other that well.

648
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, yeah, that's so funny, so.

649
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 3: Great that, I mean, those are the best kind of moments.

650
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,320
Speaker 5: We got to, like you said, we got to play

651
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:49,800
Speaker 5: on that show, and I.

652
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 4: Think we were all so just game for whatever, you.

653
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 3: Know what I mean.

654
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 4: It was like and they knew that, so they were like,

655
00:35:58,840 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 4: let's see what we can do.

656
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 5: But we were all just like, Okay, I'll throw myself

657
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 5: into this like and go for it.

658
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 4: And it was hilarious.

659
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, And to your point of of like going from

660
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:17,280
Speaker 3: something serious to this, it was exactly exactly feeling like, Okay,

661
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 3: you come in with these tools and you are this

662
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 3: kind of person and then the writers are using what

663
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,879
Speaker 3: you have. The moment Jeff realized that I could sing,

664
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 3: then he started putting making me sing all the time.

665
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,760
Speaker 3: And then yeah, and he did that, and then everything

666
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 3: that Andrea and I were like it was basically showcasing

667
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 3: our best bits for sure. Of course we played along

668
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 3: with it and and we I don't know, it is

669
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 3: kind of freaky how much chemistry you and I have

670
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 3: in this weird type of you know, relationship. But but

671
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,439
Speaker 3: you do you feel like you feel like think someone

672
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 3: is making your suit every week. You know, it's like

673
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 3: it's like made for you. You know, this is okay. I

674
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 3: know that they can do this and this and this

675
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 3: and and and then they build on that.

676
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.

677
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:17,320
Speaker 3: So I don't know, it's a wonderful it's a wonderful genre.

678
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,399
Speaker 3: I think. Is they the writers get to know you

679
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 3: and isn't you They get to give you more of

680
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 3: that thing that they see.

681
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's very different than than a film where

682
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 4: usually the writer isn't really even on set sometimes you know,

683
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 4: a lot of times it's they write it and then

684
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 4: hand it.

685
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 5: Off to you know, directors whoever. But it Yeah, sitcoms,

686
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 5: especially if you're doing them for more than one season,

687
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 5: like it does you get to know each other so

688
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 5: well that they're like, oh this, I saw her do this,

689
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 5: or I heard this happened, or I wouldn't like, let's

690
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 5: throw that in. And it's such a like personalized experience

691
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:01,399
Speaker 5: more so than any other type of show I think.

692
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 3: I don't think there's anything like it. Yeah, because a

693
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,800
Speaker 3: play has already been written, a movie's already been written.

694
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 3: Usually a show is quite you know that.

695
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 5: A single cam show is like, you know, it's you're

696
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 5: not just playing around, you know, it's not theater in

697
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 5: that way, like you can make edits and changes, but

698
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 5: it's not, Yeah, it's it.

699
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 4: They're not.

700
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 5: It's you are being the character. They're not worrying about

701
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 5: the character being you, you know what I mean.

702
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 3: So, because there's a like a thermometer of laughs when

703
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 3: something's funny and thing's not, then that's what kind of

704
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 3: makes makes the writers and the creators kind of go, oh,

705
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 3: let's go that way because that was funny.

706
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, lean into that.

707
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 5: And there's nothing better than being able to. I mean,

708
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,959
Speaker 5: I love performing in front of a live audience. It's

709
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,839
Speaker 5: so much fun. It's mildly terrifying every time you do it.

710
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 5: Every time you're like, I don't I don't remember any

711
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 5: of my lines.

712
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 3: I don't know.

713
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, like you walk up for intro and then you're like,

714
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 5: oh no, these people came to see a show and

715
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 5: I don't remember any of it.

716
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 4: Where can I yeah, exactly, where can I have my script?

717
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 4: But it's like it is, it's just such a fun

718
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 4: experience to get to do that sort of hybrid theater

719
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 4: TV thing every week.

720
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks to Lucy and Ricky.

721
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,120

Speaker 5: It's Ricky like it.

729
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 3: When I saw Henry addressed like that, I'm like, oh, oh,

Speaker 5: just like kind of like rubbery almost face.

735
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 4: You know that would like make the most ridiculous.

736
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 5: Expression and you can do that and it's brilliantly.

737
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: We joked that we were gonna dress in those costumes.

738
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: And walk down what Hollywood Boulevard like, ask for to do.

741
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 5: it's rough.
