So now we're gonna get into 0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:15.240 listener questions. Let's get right into it. You know you've 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:18.800 d m us, you have emailed us, you have you've 0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.520 left all kinds of comments on all kinds of platforms 0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:25.480 and we're we're seeing every single one of them, and 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:27.959 there's a lot of them, but they're all interesting and 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:30.440 we love them. And let's get to the first one, 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.880 and this is from Alex. Was the food real at 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:39.160 Luke's Diner? Who ate it? Did people eat the prop food? 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:42.120 Let me tell you something. The food was real, yes, 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:47.440 but it was old. They would cook it fresh, right, 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:51.160 and maybe on that first day that it was coming out, 0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:54.800 it may have been edible for the maybe the first 0:01:54.840 --> 0:01:57.760 ten minutes, but after that it was like next day, 0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:00.680 same food, next day, same food, next day. So my episode, 0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:02.920 you know, it took us eight days to shoot one episode. 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:06.600 But so by that fifth, six seventh day, when extras 0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:09.320 was get a little bored, little hungry sitting around, they 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:11.600 butt into a burger, they'd get a rude awakening that 0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:16.720 it was cold, hard, and and not terribly fresh. Um. 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:20.960 So those were kind of shocking and humorous moments on 0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:22.680 the set. Who ate it? Yeah it was the extras 0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:26.679 um and yes, the food was real. Okay. Second question 0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:31.880 from Christie. I liked the podcast theme song, Oh oh, 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:35.080 is it Scot's music? What is the name of the 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:38.360 song and is it available? Yes? That is a I recently, 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:42.080 during the pandemic, you know, I sold my house. We 0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:45.840 moved into my wife's parents condo, a huge condo in 0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:48.239 Santa Monica. They were away on vacation for a long time, 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:49.560 so we're in there. So I was writing a lot 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.399 of songs in there while my new home was being remodeled. 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:55.320 Um and I just you know, I was sitting in 0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:59.560 a room where the songs just kept flowing. And I 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:02.400 had wor old my producer's guitar, and there were a 0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:03.880 lot of songs in that guitar, and I just kept 0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:05.280 coming out. So I wrote all these songs. We went 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:08.000 in the studio and recorded three songs. That's one of 0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:10.960 the songs. So I sent it to UH. I sent 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:14.520 it to our our main producer, Amy, who is with us, 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:16.920 and and I said, what do you think about this 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:18.840 for the theme song? She and she loved it, and 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:20.960 so we went with it. I was worried at first. 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:22.359 I was like, what, it just sucks. What am I 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:28.480 gonna do this? Am I going to tell him this 0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:30.640 song blows? I know, I know how many times have 0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:32.600 you ever been in that situation your life where it's 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:34.320 like you gotta be honest with people because you love them, 0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:36.600 but you don't want it to screw up your business. Uh, 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:39.840 it's important. So uh but it's a good song. Yeah. 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.360 So I wrote it, and you know, I I changed 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:47.000 my I changed my sort of take on songwriting, and 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:49.000 I wanted to know. I was listening to a lot 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.280 of early beatles. It was two minute, happy songs with 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.920 great hooks, and I was like, really, just trying to 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:58.000 you know, it's a pandemic. I don't want to get 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:02.000 you know, commiserate or or be depressing because those songs 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.120 are easy to write. And uh, I just saw challenge yourself, 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.640 right right, happier music, right right, love songs. So it 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:10.720 was all love songs. Okay. So here's a question from 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:15.320 j Hi J. Was the hot coffee real in Luke's diner? Yes, 0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:17.440 but then it would cool off. Like I said about 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:18.880 the food, it would cool off, and then you'd be 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:24.000 drinking either lukewarm or cold coffee the rest of the day. 0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:30.599 Alexis drink coke. I think she did. I think, you know, 0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:32.839 my memories of her were on the set where she 0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:36.640 was a little more she was healthy, but um, yeah, 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:40.040 I guess at times she probably drank coke. We all 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:43.080 needed something to trust me because we're like nodding out, 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:45.360 you know after lunch, after lunch, if you had to 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.560 shoot a scene and you were like, oh boy, you know, 0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:51.920 oh boy? Uh So how many times did you have 0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:54.320 to pour a cup of coffee for a scene? Jeez? 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.320 I mean every time in the diner. That was my 0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:59.640 go to stick. You know, I'm pouring the coffee, pouring 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.080 the cof one of the coffee. It was my excuse 0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:05.200 to go to go over to the table that you know, 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.080 the director says, Scott, how are you gonna get over 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:08.880 the table? We can have someone pourk cup of coffee. 0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:10.240 What do you think? Don't you watch a show? What's 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:13.800 wrong with you? So that's what I did. Uh, here 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:18.360 we go, Jessica. Jessica has a question. Who came up 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:23.239 with the idea of no phones at loose? Good question. 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:27.920 I can't take credit for that. That's that's a that's 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:36.440 a a Sherman Palladino. Uh move right there. So there 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:41.599 you go. That's their their commentary on encroaching technology and 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:44.680 it works like a charm. And Alessandra, when it snowed, 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:48.360 was the snow actually real? And did it actually? What 0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:53.760 did it actually smell like Unfortunately, Alessandra, it was not real. 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:57.040 They have these very sophisticated companies that come in and 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:59.360 do snow for a film and TV and they're made 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:03.360 of paper there. It's like confetti almost. It's tiny little 0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:07.520 uh uh squares of paper and they rain them down 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.720 and there's a lot of it, and they lay down 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:14.360 these sort of white mats uh to make it look fluffy, 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:17.200 and then they pour that stuff from a a giant 0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:20.560 machine on top. It's it's a much larger machine than 0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:22.280 you even realize. You walk on seting go what the 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:25.640 heck is that thing? Um, it looks like I'm like 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:27.720 they're putting up a huge building or something. But then 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:30.240 they just rain little paper down on everything looks it 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:33.520 really looks really good. Um. So that's how they do it. 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:36.159 And it gets in your nose and it gets in 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:39.200 your clothes and it gets everywhere. It's kind of like 0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:43.080 sand Alright, guys, thank you for your questions. Awesome questions. 0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:46.600 I hope you learned something. Um. I had fun answering, 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:50.279 So keep them coming, um And we're gonna get into 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:53.640 breaking down the episode uh a little later. But first 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:59.800 we have the iconic Sally Struthers, who is making her 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:03.679 debut appearance in episode two as bad Bett, the wife 0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:08.039 of Mori and Uh, a Laurelai neighbor and the gnome 0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:12.680 owner of Gnomes best Gnome collection. Probably in stars Hollow, 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:15.240 I would say, and maybe in that entire county. I 0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:18.720 don't know. Um, if anybody knows, let us know, uh, 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:22.480 somebody with Gnome knowledge, because I certainly you know, I'm 0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:25.280 I'm versed in Gnomes, but I'm sure there's somebody out 0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:28.080 there that could. What did you think when they told 0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:32.000 you Sally Struthers was joining the cast? I mean I 0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:34.640 grew up on all in the family.

I mean, 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:54.800 it's like almost every scene in all of the Family 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.520 was iconic. I mean it's like you can't watch an 0:07:57.520 --> 0:07:59.800 episode of that and not go, wow, that was you. 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:02.440 That was huge.

It's like and and he has all the talent. 0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:07.160 I've thrown the ball with him and he wings it 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.440 back at seven miles an hour and the whole deal. 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:14.480 And it's like, but my thing with that is, it's like, gosh, 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:17.640 there's so much more to life, and there's so many 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:20.560 other skills that I know that he has, and I 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.920 want to bring those out, you know, and and allow 0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:27.679 those to develop and flourish. And well, it's like if 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:30.840 you get into that sports thing, it's very limiting. And 0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:33.360 not that it doesn't have its benefits. It does, it 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:37.000 really does. But I mean my fear is that he's 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:40.080 like really good at it and we're gonna make a decision. 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:44.040 I don't want him go in that room. Look he'll decide, right, 0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:46.680 I mean, if if it's meant to be, it'll be. 0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:50.079 But you know, he's a very good student. He loves 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:52.520 to read, he loves to create. He's got a real 0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:55.600 big creative side. Did you know that is an artist? 0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:58.560 Oh yeah, I mean she did the background for this 0:12:59.800 --> 0:13:04.880 this back. She did the background for the background. I 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.840 know I was cheesy, but I'm I sculpt miniature, I 0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:11.480 sculpt managers, and and it's been so fun this pandemic 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:13.760 because I don't know, I decided to make little cars 0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:15.520 out of food, and somebody said, oh, do you do 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.000 you do cars because you're gypsy to auto mechanic. I 0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:19.520 was like, I never even thought of that, But I 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:23.040 just I got obsessed with making like tiny animals driving 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:27.200 tiny cars. There you go, he know, and when she 0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:31.080 says tiny, she means tiny. When she finishes one of 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:36.040 her pieces, which you can't understand, like adult fingers are 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:39.840 just too big to be able to make this, she 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.200 photographs it with the penny next to it so that 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:45.120 you can see that it's it's about the size of 0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:49.400 a penny, and it's it's detailed and it's perfect. It's 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:52.320 a house driving a piece of cheese. It's a thank 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:55.679 you at least, like the perfect art agent. You're you're 0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:59.200 a great pr person. Ground we're doing it. We're really 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:01.720 meeting to other. This is part of a town meeting, 0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:03.600 the three of us. Well, you have you have a 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:05.680 seven year old, so I kind of know a lot 0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:10.400 about what you've been doing during pandemic. Rose has been 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:13.440 working a lot um not to be a Debbie downer. 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:17.319 But Rose and I both recently lost our dogs. Oh 0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:21.800 I'm so sorry, and it's been pretty awful. But the 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.720 only satisfaction her dog was Monkey and my dog was 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:27.880 Brad is that now we know that Monkey or Brad 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:31.840 are playing together and Doggie heaven there you have any 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:36.200 thoughts about getting up? How do you feel about that? Sally? 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.240 I wanted to ask you that I counted on my 0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:41.800 fingers today and I ran out of fingers the amount 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:45.680 of dogs that I have had in my adulthood, and 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:50.840 and uh, I have had a leaven Wow. And before 0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:54.120 I got Brad, I went a whole year without a 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:57.720 dog because my first my two before that were Scotty 0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:00.160 dogs and one was Bob and one was banana Is. 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:04.560 And Bob died of cancer. And three months later Banana's 0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:08.640 drowned in my swimming pool, and my heart was so broken. 0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.400 I was so damaged from that, I went there's time 0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:16.560 in my adult life. I went an entire year without 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:21.840 choosing another God's gifts dogs are gifts from God to 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:24.760 live with. And then I found Brad at a at 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.520 a rescue place in New Hampshire while I was working 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:31.120 Maine and now my heart so broken again. I don't 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:33.320 think I can get one right away, but I'm sure 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:35.880 I will. What about you, Rose, I mean, I just 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:38.520 he was so perfect that I don't really I can't 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:42.960 imagine getting another one. It was just Please tell Scott 0:15:43.000 --> 0:15:46.040 how we were working together on when the reunion, when 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.960 we were making the Gilmore Girls reunions, and you and 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:52.400 John went to the Pasadena dog shelter and find a dog. 0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:56.240 Amy six. Scott Amy would have put Monkey in the 0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:58.840 winter in a year in the life, like I got 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:01.320 a dog, and everyone's like, oh, how's your dog? I go, well, 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:02.920 we had him for four hours and he ran away. 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:07.000 Every that whole time. I had to stand there on 0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:09.760 my mark. You were in that scene, and Amy was like, 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:11.920 my mind was wandering so badly because something. I just 0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:13.760 met this flipping dog. It took me fifteen years pick 0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:15.480 out a dog and he ran away. But I knew 0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:17.600 you got a dog, and so I gave you a 0:16:17.720 --> 0:16:22.520 plaid collar for him. She gave me a green plant collar. 0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:25.120 The dog ran away. Long story short, someone found the job. 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:27.160 We put it on lost pause l A. The lady 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:28.560 wasn't going to give up the dog, and we go 0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:30.760 please please it's got a green plant collar or a 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:33.560 gift from Sally Struther's godmother. She goes, I have your dog. 0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:35.600 So if Sally hadn't given me the plant collar, they 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:37.920 never would have found the dog. Very I'm going to 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:39.280 write it in a book because it really is an 0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:42.760 amazing story. But back to our life. In our town meetings, 0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:44.840 Sally turned to me one of the first times I 0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:47.240 worked with you, Sally, and she looked at me and 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:49.960 just I didn't know her. I was like, she's from 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.040 all in the family. I love sitting next to her. 0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:53.840 I can't believe this is happening. And she just goes, 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:57.080 do you want to see my dog's driver's license? And 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:59.960 I was like, yeah, your dog is a driver's life. 0:17:00.160 --> 0:17:02.360 And she pulled out of California license with the perfect 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:07.840 picture of Bob. It was so silly and wonderful that 0:17:07.920 --> 0:17:10.000 I was like, yes, this is great. You still have 0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:15.200 it in your wallet. Fantastic Bob's driver's license. There. She goes, 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:19.199 she's gonna find it. She's got it, so I do 0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:21.359 want another one, But I just feel like he was 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:23.520 so perfect, And it was my first dog. I was 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.879 fifty three. I've never had a dog before and Amy. 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:28.639 Amy actually said to me their dog passed away right 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:30.560 before we started filming A Year in the Life, and 0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:32.520 she goes, they'll break your heart. My husband said, they 0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:34.520 bring you joy a million times, they only break your 0:17:34.520 --> 0:17:38.879 heart once, right, right, right, Well, the time will come. Yes, 0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:43.560 I can't find it. But there's a company you can 0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:45.359 write to and you send them your dog's picture and 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:49.240 your dog's height, and wait and birthdays, and they make 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:51.960 the driver's license for you for whatever state you actually 0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:55.800 live in using When I got stopped by a policeman 0:17:56.320 --> 0:17:57.840 for I don't know what I was doing, but a 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:00.439 police will stop me, he said, driver's license play. So 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:02.400 I handed him the one with my dog on it, 0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:05.399 thinking that it would charm me him. And that was, 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.320 you know, the two I gotta I gotta tell you 0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:11.439 while I have you, Guys, the two biggest thrills of 0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:16.040 my entire career are when I was in Carnegie Hall 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:21.960 taken Repetition with Robert Modica and he was dating Louise 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:24.680 Lasser at the time, and I was a huge Mary 0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:28.879 Hartman Mary Hart Show. Remember that show? What That show 0:18:29.119 --> 0:18:33.720 was mind blowing great. It was just the greatest thing. 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:37.520 And because it never should have been on television. It 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.560 was just it was it was like it was like 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:42.400 Theater of the absurd. It was how did that get 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:44.560 on network television? But it was just she was great 0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:46.919 at it, and she was in the class. And I 0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:50.280 just done a repetition exercise where I, you know, dug 0:18:50.320 --> 0:18:53.040 real deep and had a big breakthrough in the whole deal. 0:18:53.080 --> 0:18:56.160 And I was I sat down, I was like, uh, 0:18:56.200 --> 0:19:00.560 And she turned her Louise Lasser herself turned around and 0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:03.920 looked at me, and she said, You're going to get 0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:11.800 everything you want. And I have never felt so supported 0:19:12.200 --> 0:19:19.439 or blessed or validate you were. You were put a 0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:21.679 stamp on me and ship me out. I mean, it 0:19:21.760 --> 0:19:25.960 was just a wonderful moment. And then the day I 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:30.160 walked onto the set and there you were, Sally from 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:32.840 All in the Family, another show that I grew up with, 0:19:32.920 --> 0:19:37.480 just like worshiping the writing and the acting, and and 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:39.919 I got to work with you. And and the story 0:19:40.000 --> 0:19:43.080 I always tell is on my birthday, and you were 0:19:43.160 --> 0:19:46.240 so kind to do this because you knew my birthday 0:19:46.480 --> 0:19:49.560 fell on a very tragic day in our nation's history. 0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:52.919 Even you would pick me up because I never celebrated it. 0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.159 On my on that day because out of respect for 0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:57.640 the people who lost their lives. But um, you would 0:19:57.680 --> 0:19:59.840 pick me up. And people don't know this about Sally. 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:03.199 You're very you're physically very strong. I was shocked and 0:20:03.240 --> 0:20:06.239 I was going about to ten at that time. And 0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:08.000 you would pick me up, throw me over his shoulder 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:10.640 and take me around the set and say, smack him 0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:14.119 on the acids his birthday. You go to every single 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:21.600 bring day, walloped me and I'd have red marks every year. 0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:27.520 Oh my god, what all you're good at that? She 0:20:27.600 --> 0:20:30.439 can fireman's carry? She doesn't. Oh yeah, you did it 0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:33.480 with you, remember, And no, she just threw me over 0:20:33.680 --> 0:20:36.679 her shoulder. She was a fireman. No, it wasn't like 0:20:36.680 --> 0:20:38.720 a no, she didn't put me around her neck. She 0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:41.159 just threw me over one shoulder. And then she had 0:20:41.200 --> 0:20:44.719 a free hand to smack at will you know, and 0:20:44.760 --> 0:20:47.919 then let others have their turns. You're the person to 0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:50.160 be with if there's God forbid of burning building, because 0:20:51.280 --> 0:20:53.160 I will throw you all out. And let me tell 0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:58.480 you why. I am Scottish and Scandinavian, and both of 0:20:58.520 --> 0:21:03.119 those people are built to pull the slay through the snow. 0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:08.119 If the horse drops dead and we're just unnaturally strong. 0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:12.080 So are you? Are you a Scottish Highlander or a Lowlander? 0:21:13.240 --> 0:21:15.280 I'd like to take the high road, but it's not 0:21:15.359 --> 0:21:22.480 any fun. The low road passes cut by a couple 0:21:22.520 --> 0:21:31.880 of bars, a discotheq. And because did you know that 0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:34.600 that Sean Gunn and Lauren Graham are Highlanders? Did you 0:21:34.720 --> 0:21:39.800 know that? Yeah? If they have Scottish blood, and I 0:21:39.800 --> 0:21:44.240 think they both do. Yeah, and their tribes are still 0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:48.080 vital in a lot. My grandfather came from a town 0:21:48.119 --> 0:21:53.120 in Scotland called Motherwell, and I honestly don't know if 0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:56.800 they were Highlanders or Lowlanders. I don't know this right right? 0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:03.520 Do you have a kilt? I had one, but I 0:22:03.640 --> 0:22:05.840 lost it. I think you will look quite nice in 0:22:05.880 --> 0:22:10.560 a kilt. If I don't know, I think maybe you know, 0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:17.200 considering Milo's recent thigh flashing pensant, I could probably get 0:22:17.200 --> 0:22:20.239 away with wearing a kilt now. It really gives me 0:22:20.280 --> 0:22:23.360 a lot of freedom. Yes, at least usually have very 0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:29.000 nice knees. They have nice legs. Those guys filmore guys. 0:22:29.840 --> 0:22:36.479 I don't know. So So tell me your favorite scenes 0:22:37.119 --> 0:22:39.560 the Favorite Days? Do you remember the favorite scenes in 0:22:39.600 --> 0:22:42.439 the Favorite Days? On set. Any day I was with 0:22:42.560 --> 0:22:47.600 Rose was my favorite day. The Rose made every day fun. 0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:50.359 Thank you and you. I felt the same way about 0:22:50.359 --> 0:22:51.879 you and Scott. I felt the same way when I 0:22:51.920 --> 0:22:56.159 just thought I'm working with Sally and Liz, like it 0:22:56.320 --> 0:22:59.160 was my my life revolved around that night of television 0:22:59.160 --> 0:23:00.720
