Speaker 1: called Brad. I love to bring Adam in for it

81
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: because I just loved working with him so much. But

82
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: it's only five lines in one scene and that's it. Um,

83
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: But would he consider I'm only bringing in a limited

84
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: number of actors And I was like, yes, I would

85
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: love to do that. I mean, I love you, that'd

86
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: be That'd be awesome. So I went down there and

87
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: I said my five lines, which was a lot of Hi,

88
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: I'm I'm Brad from fifth period Shakespeare. That's pretty much

89
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 1: every single line I had in the audition too, And

90
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, that was less than five minute audition.

91
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: Who knows. And I ended up getting the part. Filming

92
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: UM the episode and I thought that was it and

93
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: I was like, great, that was so much fun. Who

94
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: was it? Who was in the room with the audition?

95
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: Amy was there? And who else? Man? I remember, to

96
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: be honest, I only think it was about It was

97
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: probably about three or four people, but I don't really

98
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: remember details of who actually was there. It was. It

99
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: went by literally so fast that it was pretty crazy.

100
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: But you were so she knew you were right for it.

101
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: When you're right for something and you just walk in,

102
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: you open your mouth, and you get the job right

103
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 1: away because you're just absolutely just right for it totally.

104
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a big believer, and you get a

105
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: percent of the jobs you were meant to happen. Yes, exactly.

106
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: Um yeah, So what do you remember about your first

107
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: day set on the set? Oh? Man, I remember that

108
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: there was a delay. M I remember hanging out with

109
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: Chad Michael Murray a lot. Him and I had trailers

110
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: next to each other, so we were sitting there on

111
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: on the Warner Brothers lot and there was like they

112
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: brought us in and something was happening with the scene before,

113
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: and so there was a four hour delay and that

114
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: was just me and Chad shooting the breeze and tossing

115
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: a football for four hours. Pretty much was like my

116
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 1: first day. Now, that was probably me causing trouble again,

117
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: demanding re rights difficult actor that I am. Oh my god,

118
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. Maybe, who knows. I doubt it. Seriously.

119
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: Nobody ever really questioned the writing, did they. It was like,

120
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: you know, we were also just happy to be there

121
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: and be saying those lines that it was like, I

122
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: don't really I mean, you know, I think There were

123
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: a couple of very minor discussions over the years, but

124
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: they didn't last long. And um, yeah, the writing was

125
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: just so good you didn't. It was just such an

126
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: easy job in that respect. And absolutely I remember getting

127
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: specifically the script for when I came back from doing

128
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: Into the Woods and Into the Woods was in the

129
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: in the script and I howled laughing like I. Paris

130
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: personally was at the time my favorite character because of

131
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: how she behaved towards towards Brad and Um, I mean

132
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: I just admired everything about it, about the writing, about performances,

133
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: and was just laughing so hard at every single time

134
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: I would I would get a script, especially that one. Well,

135
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,679
Speaker 1: what was it like working with Liza? Oh gosh, she's

136
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: I think, um as as you as you were aware

137
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: of the audience may may or may not be. She's

138
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: like the nicest person in the world. Um, which made

139
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: it so much more fun because I felt so safe

140
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 1: in the environment. Um, she was so wonderful. I remember accidentally,

141
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: one time, I think it was the season three rap party,

142
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: I accidentally smacked her across the face. It was an accident, like, okay,

143
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: so here's here's the story. There were appetizers being passed around,

144
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: and I grabbed one and I went to turn and

145
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: she happened to turn around at the same time, and

146
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: I accidentally like ran into her with my aunt and

147
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: I was like, so sorry, I'm so sorry, and she's

148
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: and I think she said, no, it's okay. I think

149
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 1: I deserve it, and then she smacked me back in

150
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: such a funny and it was so it was such

151
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: like a great moment that I only think her and

152
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: I shared and no one else saw. That was just perfect.

153
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 1: That is That's a wonderful story. Did you did you

154
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: nail are pretty good? Was it like a slacker or

155
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 1: was it just like a It was I just grabbed

156
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,599
Speaker 1: something and I turned and I was like, because I

157
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: didn't even know who I who, I accidentally like first

158
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: know when it turned out to be her, I was like,

159
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: of course, it's all psychological, isn't it. It's all yeah, absolutely,

160
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: seeds were planted long ago, so what was you know.

161
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: One of our favorite lines was about when you said

162
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 1: you you you tried to build a robot, but you

163
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,599
Speaker 1: were not successful. It's my favorite, my favorite line in

164
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: the show. I love that line more than anything else.

165
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 1: It's probably my dare I say my favorite line I've

166
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: ever said. It's just I've never I've never built a robot,

167
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: but you've tried, haven't you. Yes? Yes, When I read it,

168
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: I went, yeah, yes, And it was probably you know,

169
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 1: a little him. He probably tried to clone himself to

170
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: someone that wasn't as scared of anything, you know, I mean,

171
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: like just genius. Such a great line. And I'll never

172
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: forget that line or that scene, Like I will never

173
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: forget filming that and reading that and just going, oh

174
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: my onnic, what a home run that line was. Um,

175
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: you know that scene and your character was named one

176
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: of the most underrated characters in the series by the fandom.

177
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: What would you have loved to see more of Brad

178
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: doing in the series? Alright? So I know that I

179
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: was supposed to do a few more episodes, but I

180
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: actually left to do Into the Woods. Um, and I

181
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 1: was actually guest starring on another TV show at that

182
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: same time in New York. Um, here's what I envisioned

183
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: for Brad. I would have hoped that Brad would have

184
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 1: become this kind of Broadway star in a way, and

185
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: and done more theater and followed his career and then

186
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: ended up marrying Paris. I just think that that would

187
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 1: have been so funny, and that she's still bossing him around.

188
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: That is brilliant. That's brilliant. They love each other. Now

189
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: who else? I mean who who better? Yeah? Exactly, And

190
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: I just think that would have been so wow funny

191
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: to say that's that's what I own visioned. And maybe

192
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: when they when we do the prequel, we can order whatever.

193
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know, maybe who knows. Um, that's a

194
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: great idea. That's a great story arc great. It really is,

195
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 1: it really is. I mean it's just like the laughs

196
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: because you're so ill suited for one another. But really,

197
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 1: that's that's when the magic really happens, doesn't it. It's

198
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 1: because I I I you know, I've um people from

199
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: my high school end up getting married. It shocks you

200
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: because they were just the polar opposites, and you know

201
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: they're happily married. But absolutely, Yeah, you have an amazing

202
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: amount of projects that you work on. What's your favorite?

203
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: Oh man? I mean, I'm one of those people who

204
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,719
Speaker 1: feels bad if I pick a favorite, because then I'm

205
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: like all of the others must feel bad. You know,

206
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: I love it. Let's go. I no, no, no, I'm

207
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: not allowing this. I'm not allowing them. Let's go pick

208
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: a favorite. Come on, okay, be bold, and mighty forces

209
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: will come to your favorite category. Though, favorite each category.

210
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: That's just how I am. Let's forget the question. No,

211
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 1: go ahead, sorry, all right. So, if I'm going to

212
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: pick a favorite, like Basic Voiceover Project of All Time,

213
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 1: you'd be playing Peter Pan in Jake and the Netherland.

214
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 1: Such an iconic character. Amazing. Um. If I had to

215
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: pick a favorite musical I've done, I would say, um,

216
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: out of everything, really, playing Huck Finn and Big River

217
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: was my dream role and being able to do that

218
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: was incredible. If I had to pick a favorite TV show,

219
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 1: I'd simply say Picket Fences because I learned how to

220
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: act on that show. It was such an amazing ensemble

221
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: that I was so young. Um, the stuff that I

222
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: took from every single person in that show was life

223
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,079
Speaker 1: changing and really shaped my career for everything else. When

224
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: you're on show and I was, I was thirteen when

225
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: it ended. Yeah, there were six year old after seven seven, six,

226
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: seven eighth. I was eleven when it ended, So I

227
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: was seven, Oh my god, yes, was seven. It just

228
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: turned seven. Yeah, pretty crazy. I know, I where who

229
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: am I? It's weird when you're only you know, as

230
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: old as I am, which is seven. You're thirty seven

231
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: years old and you can say I've been in the

232
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,839
Speaker 1: industry for thirty two years. That's weird. That's a weird

233
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: thing to say. And so you had so you were

234
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 1: were your parents involved in the business at all? How

235
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: did you get involved in the business. One of my

236
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: older brothers was doing theater and it was kind of

237
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: like one of those like pay to play type of things.

238
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: Happened to be an agent the audience recruited him when

239
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: I was born. I was like, why is he gone

240
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: so much? Well, he does acting. I was like, I

241
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: want to do the acting. I want to be gone too.

242
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: I want to be gone, you know. So I did

243
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: and it worked out well, and you would be gone. Man,

244
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: I've gone done. No one saw him again. We have

245
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: to talk about the iconic Disney movie under Wraps. You've

246
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: been working on a sequel. Uh, what can we expect

247
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: this time around? Well, um, they remade the project, so

248
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: there was a remake of the project last year. This

249
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: is a sequel on the remake. So I'm not going

250
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: to be Gilbert. That I can say, I'm not going

251
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: to be my old character, but um, what I do

252
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: in the movie I'm not fully allowed to say. But

253
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: I can say that you will enjoy it and it's

254
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: really fun. Um, and I really enjoyed working on it.

255
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: I just think that it's really cool to be a

256
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: part of the franchise again for a new generation after

257
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: having kicked off all of the Disney Channel original movies,

258
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: which is crazy to say that I was in like

259
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: the first one ever. That's awesome. Um, so you are

260
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: the CEO of Magic Sketch Comedy. Tell us a little

261
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: bit more about that. Okay, Well, that's basically basically based

262
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: on my my my TikTok YouTube and Instagram, and um,

263
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: the characters all happen by accident. I was sitting there

264
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: in my mother in law's house and I had this

265
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: great idea for her video and I was like, oh,

266
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: but I would need to play the woman I'm talking to.

267
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: How can I do that? Oh, she's got some wigs

268
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: somewhere hidden around. I wonder if she'll let me borrow

269
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: a wig. So I did, and I made the first

270
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: one and it went really well, and I thought, you know,

271
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: my magic isn't doing well on social media? How do

272
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: I spice it? Wasn't? It was terrible? How do I

273
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 1: spice this up so that I can, um make it better?

274
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: And I started making these sketches based on it's loosely

275
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: based on things I've actually heard. So there's always something

276
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: in every video I've actually heard, but the entire sequence,

277
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: most of the time didn't happen that way. Um, I

278
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: kind of manipulate the situation to be a little more

279
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: far fetched fetched and outlandish than it really actually did.

280
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: And um, so I've created this whole world, um which

281
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: just me and the character Gladys who is my spectator,

282
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: and we have I mean, I just have so much

283
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 1: fun coming up with these sketches and people, actually, I

284
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: feel even though I have my my scruffy beard and

285
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 1: this wig on and it's clearly me, people sometimes forget

286
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: it's me. Are you doing so? You're doing a different voice, right,

287
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: You're doing a different character, I mean a little bit,

288
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: a little a little bit okay, yeah, she's more like this, thanks,

289
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 1: you know, but she's she's she's really fun, you know,

290
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: and she says outlandish, outlandish stuff. And I have a

291
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: blast creative and then finally people are like, oh, well

292
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: he's actually really good at magic. I was like, yes,

293
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: thank you, I appreciate you. And you're also really funny.

294
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, thank you so much. So I really get

295
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: a kick out of when people notice both things. You know,

296
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: it's really fun. And what's interesting is that the magic

297
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 1: tricks that are really really clean I've noticed people don't

298
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 1: really care about. They're like, yeah, if the audience has

299
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,239
Speaker 1: an inkling that they know what happened, or that they

300
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 1: can kind of detect what happened, the videos blow up

301
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: because then all of a sudden, people are part of

302
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: almost an inside joke, which I've noticed is very fun

303
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: and very cool. Um, that's great, So what's next for you?

304
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 1: What is next? Well, just shut under Wraps two and
