I feel like this is season 35 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 3: six and I pinched myself that we've gotten here. It's 36 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 3: an amazing job. Number one. And then this season we 37 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 3: particularly looked at sort of food cultures that have been 38 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 3: around for a long time. So it was like, yeah, 39 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 3: we went to Hawaii, we did you know, Polynesian food. 40 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: We went to Quebec, so that was like tapping maple 41 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 3: syrup making routine. We did India, we made curry. We 42 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 3: went to the tribal areas which are very rural and 43 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 3: uh and that was intense and amazing. We did that 44 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 3: in partnership with heif for International, which is a nonprofit 45 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 3: that gives people. They give them whether it's animals or 46 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 3: seeds or training, and so we went and worked with 47 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 3: female farmers that they support in the tribal areas uh 48 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 3: and then and then we for the first time normally 49 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 3: like we go. So the structure of the show is 50 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 3: I meet with a chef, they make me a meal. 51 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 3: I eat it, but I asked what the ingredient it's are. 52 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 3: And then I have a week to harvest everything fish 53 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 3: and farm and forage and I'm not very good at it. 54 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: I fail a lot. 55 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 3: The chef wants trout and I'm like, here's butternut squash. 56 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 3: Didn't get the trout right. But so then normally I 57 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 3: go to one place and then make I'm stay local, 58 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 3: whether it's the city, the state, but I wanted to 59 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 3: do a bagel, lox and cream cheese and show how 60 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 3: this like this mainstay of New York Breakfast and now 61 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 3: the country the world breakfast, it's actually this international effort. 62 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 3: So like went for salmon. First, we went for salmon 63 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: in Norway, but salmon are having issues environmentally because of 64 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 3: global warming, so Norway stopped the salmon run so we 65 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: couldn't get salmon there. And then we did the same 66 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 3: in Portland, similar stuff because there have been so many 67 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: dams being built for years and years salmon they have 68 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: issues there, so we ended up in BC where we 69 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 3: finally got salmon, and then we took that salmon to 70 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 3: Nova Scotia to make Nova locks. And then we went 71 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 3: to Poland, which is the birthplace of the bagel, and 72 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 3: we got poppy seeds in Poland and talked with historians 73 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 3: about making bagels and we made what is the predecessor 74 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 3: of the bagel there, and then wheat and malt and 75 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 3: cream cheese in upstate New York, and then we went 76 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 3: to the best bagel shop in New York City, Utopia Bagels. 77 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 3: They won the award last year, and. 78 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to go particulous bingle locks and cream 79 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 2: cheese there. So I love that your show. Obviously it's 80 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 2: fun to watch, it's fun to like see you do 81 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 2: all these things, but ultimately you are teaching us, like 82 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 2: the viewer, like to think consciously about like everything we're eating, 83 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 2: where it comes from, what it takes, the effect on 84 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: the communities that those things are harvested in. What made 85 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: you want to start doing this, you know, six seasons ago. 86 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 3: Well, I feel like, you know, people are being pulled 87 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 3: apart right now and it's been going on for a while, 88 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 3: and so I thought, well, food is at the center 89 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 3: of community of humanity. Right, everything we do historically for 90 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 3: thousands of years has been like where's the food? How 91 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 3: are we going to get more obsity to live? 92 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: So, I mean modern civilization is based off of agriculture, 93 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: and so the only reason we live in societies like 94 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 2: we do is because of how we get food. 95 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right, that's right. We build things next to 96 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: where we could get food. We were just down in 97 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 3: the Yucatan and we were at a salt flats and 98 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 3: these salt flats have been mined by the Maya for 99 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 3: two thousand years. So some of these sort of they 100 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 3: build these sections to catch the water, and some of 101 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 3: these sections are two thousand years old. And then just 102 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 3: like thirty years ago, they discovered a huge Mayan town 103 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 3: in the jungle that had been grown over, but they 104 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 3: had built this town because the salt flats were right there. 105 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 3: And so you're just like, yeah, we're always trying to 106 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 3: go where the food is. But it also is like 107 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 3: it's hard to get mad at people when they're making 108 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 3: you tacos and Margarita's right, Like you see the hard 109 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 3: work that goes on behind the scenes of like subsistence 110 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 3: farmers harvesting corn or himidors harvesting agave, and and then 111 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 3: it's you know, hard work is undeniable. And then so 112 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 3: I thought that that was kind of like a good 113 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 3: I needed it, right, I need to be able to 114 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 3: do something in the face of like this uncertainty for 115 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: my kids, for me, and and I was like, let's 116 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 3: go and you know, see the essential workers. Yeah, and 117 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 3: that's what we've been doing ever since. 118 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: That's beautiful. Yeah, I mean I feel like I got 119 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 2: to watch the Hawaii episode and even how the episode 120 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: starts with you talking with the chef and talking about 121 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: what it's like for him, like what is restaurants like, 122 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: and talking about the different ways he goes about making 123 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 2: the burger you're eating, and then seeing you, you know, 124 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: go through Maui and all it was just it is nice. 125 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: I feel like you're right in terms of like us 126 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: being separate and so against each other these days. Yeah, 127 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 2: that when you see people come together and what food 128 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 2: means to them and like that shared experience really is 129 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: just like a wonderful, great uniter that I think probably 130 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: does get overlooked a lot because we take it for 131 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: granted and we. 132 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 3: Get a lot of bad news our way, yes, But 133 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 3: what I love about being doing the work I do 134 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 3: is I am faced every day with people who are 135 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 3: working for hum They're feeding us, and you realize that 136 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 3: the majority of people are working for the betterment of humanity, 137 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 3: and that gets lost sometimes in the sort of noise 138 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 3: that's going on. Right And then you know, with Hawaii, 139 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 3: one of the things that we wanted to explore is 140 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 3: that a lot sometimes people when they go to Hawaii, 141 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 3: they just stay on the coast by the beach with 142 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: the hotel. We really wanted sort of like, well, let's 143 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 3: explore the polonies and culture that's going on side. And 144 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 3: that chef I thought, like, just in the interview with 145 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 3: him alone, I learned like ahi means fire. It's not 146 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 3: a particular fish. It's a fish they used to fish 147 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 3: with ropes, and the fish that made the rope catch 148 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 3: on fire, which is how powerful that fish was. That's 149 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 3: what they called ahi, like holy smokes. So it's not 150 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 3: a particular fish I have to get. I just got 151 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 3: to get a big fish, which is terrible for me 152 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 3: because I'm not very good at fishing. But I had 153 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 3: great help on that one. We went out with two 154 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 3: like real badass fishermen who are two of the best 155 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 3: surfers on the island as well. 156 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: Wow, but that's what's I think this is so amazing. 157 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 2: At every turn, you're giving a face to these things 158 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 2: we don't often see, Like the chef is behind closed doors. 159 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: We don't see these surfers who are also some of 160 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: the best fishermen, you know, Like, we don't see these things, 161 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 2: and we sit there and we can be judgmental about food, 162 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 2: we can be judgmental about people, and you don't see 163 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 2: the love and care that goes into it.

So we were just wandering around 272 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: and that became our kind of like home, or we 273 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 3: were there on the weekends during prep, and then they 274 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 3: would figure out, like, Okay, what can you do? And 275 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 3: I had done gymnastics when I was younger, and so 276 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 3: I could do kind of like some bower rolls, some yeah, uh, 277 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 3: I don't think I could do. I could do sort 278 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 3: of front hand springs. I could do cartwheels, so they 279 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 3: put that in. Yeah, and then and then so they 280 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 3: would come You'll notice in the movie they'll cut to 281 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 3: me during one particular moment when I was doing like 282 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: the one thing that I was good at, and then 283 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 3: they would cut to everybody else and then they'd come 284 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 3: back to me to just be my head. 285 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: We're familiar with that. I'm glee. They did the same 286 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,119 Speaker 2: thing with all of us really, because almost nobody could dance. 287 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: So we had trouble standing in the straight line altogether. 288 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 2: So I'm familiar with the close up. 289 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: There were no dance calls or asking us today if 290 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: we could dance when we got cast. 291 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 3: So you got cast as singers? 292 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, Wow, that's everybody in the initial pilot and 293 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: first season. 294 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 3: That's fresh. 295 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. What I love about like Kenny's movies is that, 296 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 2: like the sense of community, you feel, energy, you feel 297 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 2: coming through the screen. I imagine, Well, I just I 298 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 2: just wonder about the tone that he's setting on set, 299 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 2: because if you have three and a half months of rehearsal, 300 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 2: you are bonding through the unglamorous part of like learning 301 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 2: how to dance and sing in front of each other, 302 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 2: and it's like embarrassing and it's intimidating and awkward. But 303 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 2: when you get through all that, I imagine, you know, 304 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 2: watching this movie, it feels like you guys are brothers. 305 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 2: It feels like you're all of each other and you're 306 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 2: very close friends. 307 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 3: And that came from the top down. I mean, I 308 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 3: think everyone around town, anyone who knows Kenny, you know, 309 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 3: knows he's this sort of beautiful soul. And I wonder 310 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 3: did he ever get mad? Like that's a question, right 311 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 3: because he had to have been frustrated that period of time. 312 00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 3: But no, we it was a it was a beautiful 313 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 3: experience where we all went down the rabbit hole together. 314 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 3: And then one of the cool things about being with 315 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 3: all these dancers is that they would be like, all right, 316 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 3: we're going out this weekend. You want to come, So 317 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 3: you would go.

But 354 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 3: this was like we we formed gangs, like not hardcore gangs, 355 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 3: but gangs like if you got caught out there and 356 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 3: the and the other kids got you, you would get like, 357 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 3: you know, tossed around a bit and then and then 358 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 3: you'd be like run and then everyone would flee.

But what was 373 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: it like working with such icons like Robert Duval and 374 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: Bell Pullman at the time. 375 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 3: Well, Bill, I think was very much one of the kids, 376 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 3: like he once he joined the team, like he just 377 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 3: and I see Bill around every now and then. We're 378 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 3: very very like it's so cool. So yeah, and he's 379 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 3: just a sweetheart. And funny and you know there's a 380 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 3: reason why he's a movie star, and you're just like, yeah, 381 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,959 Speaker 3: Duvall was like he was, I mean serious, right, So, 382 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 3: like Kenny came to us beforehand and he was like, 383 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 3: this is one of the greatest actors ever, so you 384 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 3: guys need to be respectful and you better know your lines. 385 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 3: And so I remember this one scene, the first scene 386 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 3: we did with him, he was on the other side, 387 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 3: so he was second. They were filming our coverage first, 388 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 3: and then the cameras gonna turn around, and he was 389 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 3: he was huge and big, and like I was like, 390 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 3: he's not really going to be doing that, Like that's weird. 391 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 3: And then and then the camera turned around, he got 392 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: real small. And what he was doing was giving us 393 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 3: stuff to react to so that he could really like 394 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 3: so that we would look better. He was being a 395 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 3: partner in the dance, and that was something that I 396 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: took with me from that moment on. Oh, that's a 397 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: trick that helps your fellows when you're doing something. So 398 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 3: that was super cool. And then also like he has 399 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 3: such gravitas on screen, and then when you met him around, 400 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 3: like he'd be walking his two dogs on set and 401 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 3: he'd come over and he had moved to Tennessee at 402 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 3: that point, like he wasn't really an LA guy anymore. 403 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 3: He was just a guy. He was really sweet. So 404 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 3: that was and and Margaret was one full yeah, you know, 405 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 3: to have worked with her, it was really really incredible. 406 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: And I think that was again like looking to the 407 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 3: people who could do things I couldn't do, like incredible singer. 408 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 3: You were just like whoa.

Yeah, because so 413 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 3: we got to be on like Good Morning America. That 414 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 3: was really cool. And they would send us out in groups, 415 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 3: so you'd go with three people and these three people 416 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 3: will go over here. And we did the press tour. 417 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 3: But then it was the it was the biggest bomb 418 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 3: in Disney history. The weekend that came out.
