He's been, you know, 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:47.560 grinding and doing his training with clients and so it's 0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:50.600 been a it's been it's been a good a good 0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:51.240 year so far. 0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:53.360 It's been it's been good. 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.280 Yeah, you know what, that's the top of the line 0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:58.200 when you can say it's been a good year so far, 0:01:58.600 --> 0:01:59.680 that's a ten out of ten. 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.800 Yeah, I know. But it's interesting because of how the 0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:06.080 year started, you know, especially for you, because I remember 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:09.360 turning on the TV and when the fires were happening 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.880 in Californian and the Palisades, and I'm like, oh, there's 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:14.040 Steve Guttenberg, you know, and it's like, that was not 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.520 a good start to the year for so many people. 0:02:16.639 --> 0:02:19.640 And no, it was very tough. 0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:24.200 And it's going to take a long time for the 0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:27.960 Palisades and for Altadena to come back but it will. 0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:30.200 It will. 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:35.680 Everyone is resilient and very hopeful, but the reality is 0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:42.080 it was a huge natural disaster. Yeah, and six thousand 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:47.160 homes were burned in Palisades and more and more structures 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:50.000 and staying with Altadena. So you have let's say there 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:52.600 were four people in each home, you have twenty five 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:55.120 thousand people in each town being displaced. 0:02:55.919 --> 0:02:56.440 It's rough. 0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.400 It is very rough. And there, you know, when you 0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:02.760 have six homes, it wasn't like a forest's burning. You 0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:09.200 have concrete burning, literally, you have metal burning, you have plastics, 0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:15.640 you have Tesla batteries burning. There's a ton of toxins 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:19.079 in the air and in the ground. So there's lots 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:25.040 to do, you know, environmentally, there's lots to do. And psychologically, yeah, well. 0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:28.880 I remember when you were in West Virginia you had 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:30.840 a cough and you're like, this is from the fire. 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:34.000 And that was in March, and so I'm curious has 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:36.560 that gotten any better? And because I don't think people 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.640 realize that, I mean, you were literally, you know, ground 0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.960 zero in there, and then all the smoke and inhalation 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.600 that you had from that, I mean you were cough 0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:48.080 and a bunch from it. In March. 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:52.640 Yeah, have the cough for one hundred days. Wow, one 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:56.680 hundred days since the fire, and it's gone. I don't 0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:57.880 have it anymore, thank God. 0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:02.800 It's that lead that leads me to a quick just 0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:05.440 a quick comment. And so so I look through when 0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:07.920 I met you a couple of months ago, and you know, 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:10.240 you know how much a fan I am of yours, and. 0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:13.840 I was so excited and so was I when movies I. 0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:16.599 Let you do, didn't I When you met me, you. 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:23.520 Did not Your aura and energy is exactly what I 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:26.760 thought it would be, so it was it wasn't a surprise. 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:29.920 But anyway, So what my point is when I look 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:33.680 at your Instagram, I love all the kind of motivational 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:37.240 and inspirational stuff that you're doing right now because you're 0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:42.360 you're sharing stories and experiences from your from your life 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:46.880 and you're kind of opening yourself up and putting yourself 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:50.400 in a position where you're sharing your feelings on Instagram. 0:04:50.720 --> 0:04:52.839 I just wanted to say, like, I listened to them 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:53.599 and I love. 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:58.880 Thanks so much. They started out with my dad was 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:02.200 a few years ago and he was in the hospital. 0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:06.400 So during the day, you know, my sister and I 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:09.200 would have to take a break, you know, uh, you know, 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.159 we'd swimch off and walk outside, get a cup of 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.000 coffee and sit outside. 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:16.200 And there are always people during the day to talk to. 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:19.920 But we would sleep there in the mid and in 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:20.720 the middle of the night. 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:23.280 If you you can't sleep, you go outside and there's 0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.800 nobody there to talk to. So a friend of mine said, 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:28.960 you know, talk to the internet. There are other people 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:30.680 who will talk back, and they did. 0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:31.120 You know. 0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:33.479 I would get on there and say, hey, you know, 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:37.120 I'm taking care of my dad and whatever I would 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.120 talk about, and they would say, Wow, I'm taking care 0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:40.840 of my mom, I'm taking care of my son. 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:43.279 I'm you know, I'm working late at the office. 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:45.919 I'm you know, I'm a janitor, I'm a I'm a 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:46.599 truck driver. 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:48.000 And this is what I do in the middle of 0:05:48.000 --> 0:05:48.320 the night. 0:05:48.480 --> 0:05:52.720 So it was a way of communicating and then it 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:56.680 sort of got into I would record these little musings 0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:57.440 about life. 0:05:58.560 --> 0:05:59.960 But what I really believe in my mom. 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.760 We used to tell me was that a mother in 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:08.080 Nashville is the same as a mother in Jordan, and 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:11.000 a mother in la is the same as a mother 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:16.680 in Moscow, and mechanics and teachers and all of us, 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:20.320 all of us human beings are the same and we 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:24.040 have the same thoughts no matter where you live, we're 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:25.120 human beings. 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:25.599 And we have. 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:32.640 These these normal thoughts about the practice of living. So 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:36.279 I just started talking and it's sort of morphed into 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:40.440 that and it's just as much for me as it 0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:43.400 is for everybody else to sort of say what I'm 0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:48.160 thinking about and see if anybody else is thinking. It's 0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:49.640 sort of like when I would talk. I have a 0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:53.960 lot of buddies, you know, women friends, men friends, but 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:56.719 sometimes with men friends, you know, it's like you kind 0:06:56.720 --> 0:07:00.160 of you know, you'll say, hey, do you different, has 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:02.680 this ever happened to you? Or you ever think about this? 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:05.240 And you know you share things. And same with my 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:07.360 woman friends. You know, I'll say, do you ever think 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:09.880 about this? This is on my mind today? And a 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:12.440 friend of mine will said, yeah, I think about that 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.400 all the time. And I'm like, wow, I'm not alone. 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:18.600 And I guess that's what it really comes down to. 0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:21.960 What I think about my musings is like, you know, 0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:23.200 I'm not alone. 0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:28.520 You know, yeah, I think there's such you know, benefits, 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:30.640 you know, again, because you're same thing, like, you know, 0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:34.760 we I've openly shared things on Instagram, and it's it's 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:38.280 helping people. And the other side of that is it 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:41.800 does open the door for people's opinions and not so 0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:45.440 nice comments and and so I don't know if you've 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:49.119 experienced that piece of it through sharing, but I still 0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:53.080 think that regardless, it's that's what I'm like because the 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:58.320 positive always outweighs the one negative comment. But sometimes the 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:00.440 negative comment is the one that stands out the most. 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:04.520 Yes, you know, I can put on a new outfit 0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:07.960 which I think is really cool, great jacket, pants and everything, 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:11.640 and I have ninety nine people say how great it is. 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.840 And there's a homeless guy sitting on the just drank 0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:18.840 a bottle of vodka, and I walked by him. He goes, 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:24.440 that outfit looks terrible, and I'll think, to myself, what 0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.640 are you talking about. I'll say to him, we're talking 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:28.480 about I just bought this. It's a great new shirt 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:32.040 and pants and a great jacket. He goes, doesn't really match. 0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:34.400 And you want to know something, He's someone I think 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:38.160 about all day. You know, I'll say, you know, this 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:40.880 guy told me that it doesn't look good. He'll go, God, 0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:43.840 buddy of am I going, what guy? I go guy 0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:47.079 on the street kind of street homeless guy who just 0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:48.000 drank a bottle. 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:50.920 Of vodka, And that's the guy you're listening to. But 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.240 we as humans, we do that. 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:58.440 You know, we're attracted to drama, We're attracted to the 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:03.240 dark side. So I do find that eighty percent of 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:07.520 the comments are good comments and then twenty percent are 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:14.280 you know, deranged or or you know, not constructive and 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:15.240 and a little mean. 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.040 But that's actually how life is. 0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:22.160 Life is supposed to be eighty percent great and twenty 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:26.440 percent hard. I think that's the way God made it, 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:30.040 so it sort of works out in everything. And I 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.280 think in the morning, you know, you got to wake 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:36.319 up and say, I choose happy, and I know that 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:39.600 you know, there's going to be twenty percent not so great. 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:43.360 But it's not supposed to be eighty twenty, like eighty 0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:48.280 percent horrible comments and twenty percent great. You know, it's 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:49.720 supposed to be eighty twenty. 0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:52.720 And I like the eighty twenty. That's that's a nice rule. 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:55.320 Are you happy that social media wasn't around when you 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:57.800 were back in the day doing you know, the two 0:09:57.840 --> 0:09:59.760 men and the baby's and that it takes too, like 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.559 are you are you happy that you lived in I 0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:05.480 think you're the success and the rise of your career 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.720 wasn't in social media times. 0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:15.360 Well, I'm glad there were no no, no techie phones 0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:19.560 when I was a kid that I would, you know, 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:22.760 go out in the street and play stickball and kickball 0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:27.360 and baseball and football and ring a libo and you know, 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:33.680 and live a normal life without these phones. I think 0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:38.760 these phones and social media is terrific because you can 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:44.120 you can educate and entertain with them, but they have 0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:51.520 changed the timber of the psychology of the planet, and 0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:56.600 sometimes not so good, you know. You know, it's sometimes 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:58.520 it's much better to get on the phone and talk 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:04.040 rather than tech. And the texting is so easy that 0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:10.720 we lose that ability to converse, you know, and we 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:14.240 need that. Like if I was texting you right now, 0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:18.720 I wouldn't say and you know, or you wouldn't say, 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:25.240 oh yeah yeah. And I think it's social media eighty 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.840 percent of it is great, twenty percent of it is not. 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:31.800 And there's a lot of selling going on and promoting, 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:34.800 and it's also fake. 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.959 You know.

You know, 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:17.199 I went there to work and it never went anywhere. 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:19.320 And I've been a villain. 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:24.280 I've been a pedophile in Veronica Mars pretty good. 0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:30.840 You know.

Because you know, as actors, we 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:16.440 like to work first of all, and then when you 0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:18.960 get it, you know, you're given a certain amount of equipment. 0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:22.680 You know, you look at Robert de Niro and he 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:26.280 looks like an Italian mafia boss. 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:29.040 So what does he get? A lot of. 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.480 Mafia boss guys and a lot of you know, a 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:35.040 lot of mafia soldiers that's a big part of his career, 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:38.280 or tough guys.

And I think that was really cool 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:40.160 because you were truly invested in creating a character. 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:47.800 Yeah, so much of what we do is physical. You know. 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:51.040 I tried to create a walk and a posture and 0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:56.360 cadence of talking and the look, you know, shave my 0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:59.360 hairline back and put the mustache in the glasses and 0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:04.880 even make my skin have eggzema, you know, those like 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:09.880 little red dots on it, and it really changes not 0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:12.160 only your look, but how you feel when you're acting. 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:17.360 That equipment. I remember years ago I worked when I started, 0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:22.040 I was eighteen, and I worked with Larry Olivier who said, 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:27.120 use a fake nose as much as you can fake 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:28.640 teeth wigs. 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:32.200 You know, you'll love it, and the audience will love it. 0:16:32.840 --> 0:16:36.880 They'll see something different. We love to see people popping 0:16:36.960 --> 0:16:39.280 up different holes. You know, when you see a friend 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:43.520 all the time is in sweats and T shirts and 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:45.640 you know, never does her and all of. 0:16:45.640 --> 0:16:48.040 A sudden you go to the wedding, you know, a 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.360 wedding or an event, and she's all dolled up.

And Olivier was a 0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:02.040 huge proponent of fakery. 0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:05.840 And you know, and and when I was very young. 0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:09.280 I took it to heart, saying, she can you know, 0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:11.879 unless you know, you're doing a picture or a movie 0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:13.680 or a play where they go, we just want you 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:17.200 to look like you. And that happens a lot when 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:20.800 you know, producers kind of want to emulate the successes 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:23.040 you've had. We no, no, no, we don't want that 0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:26.800 fake nose. We want you, you know. And and that's 0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:29.600 a different ballgame.
