Speaker 1: First of all, you don't know me. We all about
Speaker 1: that high school drama, Girl Drama, Girl, all about them
Speaker 1: high school queens. We'll take you for a ride in
Speaker 1: our comic Girl Cheering for the right drama queens want
Speaker 1: up girl fashion, but you'll tough. Girls. You could sit
Speaker 1: with us. Girl Drama, Queens Drama, Queen's Drama, Queen's Drama,
Speaker 1: drawn MC, Queen's Drama, Queen's Friends. It's the listener Q
Speaker 1: and a episode. We can't wait. Let's get started. Who
Speaker 1: has some questions for us? I'm so excited to be
Speaker 1: doing this. You've been sending in such great questions. Honestly,
Speaker 1: we're a little giddy because you're reminding us of so
Speaker 1: many things you want to remember. So let's jump in, y'all.
Speaker 1: You want to pick a question to start with, yes, darling? Um, okay,
Speaker 1: So Ali asks, if O. T. H was filming now,
Speaker 1: who would you want to perform at Trick? I love
Speaker 1: this question. Yeah, this is great, oh man. You know
Speaker 1: up and coming bands that you know, because it would
Speaker 1: be fun to break some bands the same way that
Speaker 1: we did on One Tree Hill, you know, bringing in newer,
Speaker 1: newer bands as an old lady that Olivia Rodrigo. Everyone
Speaker 1: kept being like, well, that's it, she's already famous, but
Speaker 1: basically every song she writes is like a broken Peyton
Speaker 1: love triangle. Like I appreciate that energy. Go get them kids. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I like her. I also think it would be fun.
Speaker 1: You know, we're all in that stage of life where
Speaker 1: we're lucky enough that we have friends and cool bands,
Speaker 1: like I want to get all our friends to come
Speaker 1: to Wilmington's. Yes, Johnny Swim should come to Wilmington Bran
Speaker 1: and yes, let's get Kimbra out, and then I don't know,
Speaker 1: man Enjoy obviously you would have to sing a trip
Speaker 1: again O music. Yeah, you're gonna something super up be
Speaker 1: like what if Joy gets into like like E d M,
Speaker 1: like dance club music, like get Robin? Can we just
Speaker 1: get Robin and do a leap and like the whole
Speaker 1: the whole electronic pop vibe happening to play a trick?
Speaker 1: That's the I can die happy? Are you kidding me? Now?
Speaker 1: Die happy? Robin to blow? Let's do this. I'm so
Speaker 1: into this idea. All right, what's the next question, Van says,
Speaker 1: who was the prankster on set? I guess Chad, right, Chad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but also Tyler was his accomplice, like but he but
Speaker 1: like when he had little brother to come play, you know,
Speaker 1: when Tyler come to town. The two of them were horrible,
Speaker 1: And I think it's because Chad had little brothers in
Speaker 1: real life and was just like, Yes, this is my
Speaker 1: comfort zone. Let's go, you know, terrorize people. Do You're
Speaker 1: really lucky that those two never burned down a sound
Speaker 1: stage with the amount of illegal fireworks that they say. God,
Speaker 1: I gotta say it was hilarious and scary, and I'm
Speaker 1: just really grateful. A stink bomb. Second, which one of
Speaker 1: you jerks, someone decorated my entire trailer with Avril Levine pictures.
Speaker 1: Who did that? Wasn't me? That sounds like who did it? No?
Speaker 1: That was the voice that was yes, And I think
Speaker 1: they did like cutouts of her and we were like,
Speaker 1: do you guys have construction paper scissor? Like? What are
Speaker 1: going on? Why did they have so much craft? Ear? Yeah?
Speaker 1: It was the voice. Um, all right, Carmen. If you
Speaker 1: could change your character's names, what names would you give them?
Speaker 1: I picked Brooks name. I would never change it. Yeah
Speaker 1: you did? Yeah, it was tera right, that's right. I
Speaker 1: picked her first and last him, and little did I know,
Speaker 1: I dubbed her with big Dick energy with what about
Speaker 1: I would I think Molly? I think Haley would have
Speaker 1: been a Molly would have been a good name for Haley,
Speaker 1: maybe like a little okay with I'm okay with Peyton.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing that's like weird to me is that
Speaker 1: we continued to use that device of everyone naming their
Speaker 1: kids after like their last names and things and boring
Speaker 1: after like, I wish I could change my daughter's name, Yeah,
Speaker 1: what would you have changed it to? What was it? Sawyer,
Speaker 1: Sawyer George? Yeah, well yeah, of course, um yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I like gender neutral names, and so I liked Sawyer
Speaker 1: for that. I like Peyton for that. But I also
Speaker 1: think like we could have been more creative. We could
Speaker 1: have named her after Ellie or like my mom. We
Speaker 1: could have done like a you know, a thing there.
Speaker 1: But it feels a little like narcissism to continue to
Speaker 1: be like, I'm going to use my name for this
Speaker 1: child that I bring into the world. It was weird
Speaker 1: to me that when Brooke had kids, one of them
Speaker 1: was named Davis and then one of them was named Jude, Like,
Speaker 1: what was that supposed to be Julian for short. Am
Speaker 1: I supposed to know this? I don't remember, but it
Speaker 1: I just was like, why do we keep doing this?
Speaker 1: Like it just like, well, Peyton named for at Auto Swayer,
Speaker 1: so I should name my son Davis obviously. Yeah, weird,
Speaker 1: weird al right, So that's what we would change. That's
Speaker 1: a good question. Well, thank you. Are the characters you
Speaker 1: ended up playing who you originally auditioned for. I think
Speaker 1: we've answered this and in the show before. We talked
Speaker 1: about this in the first few episodes. But yes, I
Speaker 1: mean I think we all auditioned for the characters that
Speaker 1: we I mean I originally auditioned for that part in Radio.
Speaker 1: I mean that was the more extensive audition where I
Speaker 1: actually went and sat with Mike Toland and had a conversation.
Speaker 1: He was like, oh, you're a combative young woman. That's
Speaker 1: the energy we're looking for. So I didn't really audition
Speaker 1: for Peyton. It was like a tape. Yeah, you sent
Speaker 1: it a tape, I remember, and I read for Brooke
Speaker 1: and Enjoy. I remember I read for both for Brooke
Speaker 1: and Haley, but you knew you wanted to play Hailey,
Speaker 1: so you read even the Brook scenes as Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: exactly right. Yeah, I love it. I was like, I'll
Speaker 1: let them think I'm a one note actress. As long
Speaker 1: as I get the job, then I can prove myself.
Speaker 1: But right now they just need to think I fit.
Speaker 1: You're so smart. Yeah, I love it. That a strategy
Speaker 1: that goes into that. Okay, Wait, I like this one.
Speaker 1: The two two two is asking us what's your go
Speaker 1: to lip sync song? I don't karaoke? Yeah, Like, what's
Speaker 1: your go to karaoke song? Well, I feel like you
Speaker 1: got some Dolly Parton up your slave, Hillary. I've got
Speaker 1: two songs very different, Dolly Parton's apple Jack but also
Speaker 1: Shaka Khan. Tell me something good is it is a
Speaker 1: crowd pleaser. It's just the right amount of naughty and
Speaker 1: you don't actually have to be a good singer to
Speaker 1: sing it. You just gotta put your dits into it.
Speaker 1: You know. You gotta's so good that it. Wait, Joy,
Speaker 1: I've heard you do some Shania Twain. That is Oh.
Speaker 1: I love my country music. Um. Honestly, the last couple
Speaker 1: of years, my favorite karaoke song has been UM dancing
Speaker 1: on my own And I just love singing Robin because
Speaker 1: everybody who knows it as soon as they hear it,
Speaker 1: because nobody ever sings it at karaoke. Um, because it
Speaker 1: is kind of a hard song and you have to
Speaker 1: be a professional to handle this song. Yeah, and so
Speaker 1: people in the bar who know it are always really
Speaker 1: excited to hear it. Come on, um and if nobody doesn't.
Speaker 1: If somebody doesn't know it, then you know it's a
Speaker 1: good song to introduce them to. So those are those
Speaker 1: are my joy You have to do a dance album.
Speaker 1: What are we doing? Oh my god? Like a like
Speaker 1: a disco a throwback like dance disco club and sounds fun, Sophia,
Speaker 1: what are you singing? Baby dude? I really like to
Speaker 1: shock people. So my two favorite things to sing at
Speaker 1: karaoke are either Hypnotized by Notorious b I G or
Speaker 1: Redneck Woman by Gretchen Wilson. Woman. I like hip hop,
Speaker 1: like like out out. When that comes on, Sofia turns
Speaker 1: into a different animal. I really do like college, Sophia.
Speaker 1: It's fun to throw a little bit of country music
Speaker 1: at people because they're just like, what is going on
Speaker 1: with this girl? And I love that. That's a fun question. Uh,
Speaker 1: what is it? Kia? Doyle is asking us, what was
Speaker 1: the moment when you realized O t H was a
Speaker 1: special show compared to other shows. First of all, I
Speaker 1: just want to say that I appreciate that you think
Speaker 1: we're special. That feels nice. Yeah, I mean we have
Speaker 1: a moment when I guess t r L was a
Speaker 1: really big indicator. That was weird. That was that was crazy.
Speaker 1: It was a weird experience. It looks like something that
Speaker 1: you saw happening in movies. It was happening to us.
Speaker 1: And we were in a small town. We were we
Speaker 1: were basically in a little box together and we rarely
Speaker 1: went outside. You know, working on a sound stage is
Speaker 1: kind of like being in a casino. You never know
Speaker 1: what time it is, and you're at work for like
Speaker 1: six and and we got up there and it was
Speaker 1: like it was like one of the biggest crowds TRL
Speaker 1: ever had, and it was for us, and you know,
Speaker 1: we were working for people who told us we were
Speaker 1: lucky to be employed. We were like, wait, what, what,
Speaker 1: what's happening? Disconnect here. Honestly, for me, it didn't happen
Speaker 1: until after I had left, because I have a chip
Speaker 1: on my shoulder about how we were treated as women
Speaker 1: on the show, not by our bosses, but by the
Speaker 1: industry at large. Every other female on our contemporary shows
Speaker 1: had an endorsement deal for makeup, for hair, for clothing,
Speaker 1: for this, for that, and for whatever reason, like we
Speaker 1: weren't good enough for people to want to like engage
Speaker 1: with us in that way, or that's how I felt.
Speaker 1: Maybe you guys didn't field, but I did. We were
Speaker 1: glossed over in a way that felt like we were
Speaker 1: getting picked last for Kickball, and then to leave the
Speaker 1: show and have all those other shows kind of peter
Speaker 1: out and our show to still be on the air
Speaker 1: even if I wasn't there, and then to have it
Speaker 1: be this like legacy show that people are naming their
Speaker 1: children after and are like watching from front to back
Speaker 1: over and over again. When we went to conventions, that's
Speaker 1: when I realized, like, oh, we made something that I'm
Speaker 1: proud of you. Yeah that felt nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think there was something for me to even after
Speaker 1: we ended, because you're right, we we we were kind
Speaker 1: of we were kind of always treated like the kids
Speaker 1: who got to pick where they sat at lunch last,
Speaker 1: and and you know, there was a lot of other
Speaker 1: just sort of gross treatment of women existing in the
Speaker 1: press the whole time we were on that show. That
Speaker 1: was really icky, and there's documentaries about it out now, yeah,
Speaker 1: there sure are. And and it was wild too to
Speaker 1: get past the show and see it still be one
Speaker 1: of the highest watch things on streaming. And it continues
Speaker 1: and it continues and it continues, and I almost feel
Speaker 1: like that's what made everyone else go, oh oh, they
Speaker 1: did the thing that everyone's trying to do and almost no,
Speaker 1: but he can. And it It's almost changed for us
Speaker 1: so much after the show instead of while it was happening.
Speaker 1: You know, we had that special moment at t r
Speaker 1: L I. I remember, you know, Hillary, when you and
Speaker 1: me and Tyler Hilton went to the Mall of America
Speaker 1: and the whole place was full, and we we were
Speaker 1: just like, what is happening? But you know, we had
Speaker 1: these little moments of surrealism and then we would just
Speaker 1: be on our little Honestly, I thought, because we were
Speaker 1: told so much like how replaceable we are and how
Speaker 1: our show was always going to get canceled. I was
Speaker 1: so gaso lit by it that I was convinced they
Speaker 1: paid people to show up at events. I was like,
Speaker 1: surely these are like re enactors showing up, like, you know,
Speaker 1: stand in line for seven hours to get an autograph. Um,
Speaker 1: oh my god. Yeah. But you know, looking back on
Speaker 1: it in hindsight, we can be like, oh that was awesome. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I loved it. Yeah. What is um the one thing
Speaker 1: that you think people took away from our characters? And
Speaker 1: is it what you hoped for? That question is from
Speaker 1: Arian Blonde Arlane Arlane Arian Ariana, I don't know, stay
Speaker 1: with an accent, Arian Blondean. I like that. I don't
Speaker 1: know what. I don't know people taking away from your character.
Speaker 1: I guess like I would want people to have walked
Speaker 1: away from watching Hayley knowing that, Um, I mean she
Speaker 1: did have a good backbone. We've talked about that before.
Speaker 1: I like Hayley's backbone. And you know, it's okay even
Speaker 1: even if you're overly stubborn, even you know you're not
Speaker 1: gonna you're not gonna miss out on the good things
Speaker 1: in life because you're a little too structured. Um, but
Speaker 1: maybe it's better to loosen up. I don't know, I'm babbling.
Speaker 1: I don't actually don't have a good answer for Because
Speaker 1: joy your character means a lot to me, Like watching
Speaker 1: this back. I really love Haley for her constant evolution,
Speaker 1: you know, like she's constantly changing what she wants, who
Speaker 1: she is, what she is true while having these also
Speaker 1: really big things to consider, like her husband and her baby,
Speaker 1: you know, like so that that ability to grow and
Speaker 1: expect the people around you to grow with you is
Speaker 1: something that I'm super love about Haley. That's awesome. Thank you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can see that. I appreciate that. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: it's funny. It's a It's a similar thing that I
Speaker 1: would want people to see in Brooke is that you
Speaker 1: have permission to change. You have permission. Does it huge too?
Speaker 1: You know, you have permission to own your space and
Speaker 1: who you are and to be unapologetic about the experiences
Speaker 1: that have made you who you are, whether they're good, bad, ugly,
Speaker 1: amazing you you know, you can always dig in, go deeper,
Speaker 1: dream bigger. Those are things that I that I love
Speaker 1: about her, and and it's I would say that, and
Speaker 1: and certainly the the being fiercely loyal to your friends. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure. I mean Brooke is a character that does
Speaker 1: like the biggest loop to loop and comes out how
Speaker 1: did the season end? You're like a mom of twins.
Speaker 1: I love it. I hope your kids are just as
Speaker 1: wild as you. Honestly me too. I hope Brook Davis's
Speaker 1: kids are little Helian's um like Payton's like pain management.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? After all the fan
Speaker 1: interactions we've had, because there were so many things that
Speaker 1: were like madly, you know, massive happening to her um,
Speaker 1: a lot of death, a lot of destruction, a good
Speaker 1: portion of my fan base has been like, oh, you
Speaker 1: helped me navigate a thing. You helped me articulate how
Speaker 1: to move through this thing. And so I think the
Speaker 1: only thing we didn't do was light painting on fire. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, maybe I don't know what happened after I left,
Speaker 1: Maybe you guys did, uh. But I like that people
Speaker 1: use her as a tool to learn how to articulate
Speaker 1: trauma and move through it and know that there is
Speaker 1: another side of it. Yeah, because the other side exists.
Speaker 1: It's just sucks. The Peyton was really great as that
Speaker 1: example of someone who holds on in spite of feeling hopeless,
Speaker 1: in spite of feeling like everything's falling apart. And I
Speaker 1: think a lot of high school kids really need that
Speaker 1: to feel like they have a mirror to look into
Speaker 1: with UM, with character, especially you know, kids watching One
Speaker 1: Tree Hill, I feel like they've got somebody that's like, Okay,
Speaker 1: all these horrible things happen been but as an example
Speaker 1: of how you held on through all the dark stuff
Speaker 1: instead of um letting it just totally run you down
Speaker 1: and take you down. Like Peyton just kept going. She
Speaker 1: kept holding out, finding the threat of hope and and
Speaker 1: holding onto it until things got better, which is sometimes
Speaker 1: just what you have to do in life. It doesn't
Speaker 1: always have to be like a bright sunny day. You
Speaker 1: could just be a day, you know, like, yeah, most
Speaker 1: of them are. Yeah, don't let perfect get in the
Speaker 1: way of good kids. It's a good day. Speaking of
Speaker 1: a day, Robin Greenland wants to know how many hours
Speaker 1: a day we would fill. Basketball days were eighteen hours.
Speaker 1: I love unions. This this industry taught me the love
Speaker 1: unions because there's a couple of things that would save us.
Speaker 1: One was like the extras. They could only work so
Speaker 1: many hours, so when we had basketball days, we were
Speaker 1: limited in what they could afford to pay for UM.
Speaker 1: But then working with kids, because the union says the
Speaker 1: kids can only work like you know, what thirty seven
Speaker 1: minutes a day, and so when Joy got her kid
Speaker 1: on the show, we all were like, we want to
Speaker 1: do scenes. Yeah, yeah, I'll do a show with kids
Speaker 1: any day. Sounds awesome. Yeah, that's true. Are our basketball days.
Speaker 1: It's funny because they hacked around that and they would
Speaker 1: get a group of extras for the first half of
Speaker 1: the day and then a group of extras for the
Speaker 1: second half of the day a lot. So season one,
Speaker 1: our basketball days were like eighteen hours and then, um,
Speaker 1: you know, if you hear that a film set, for example,
Speaker 1: works twelve to fourteen, that means we're there fourteen to
Speaker 1: sixteen because we have to come in and get ready
Speaker 1: before camera rolls. Yeah, and while we're while we're getting
Speaker 1: ready in the morning, you know, getting into hair and
Speaker 1: makeup to make sure we look exactly the same every
Speaker 1: single day, because some of these episodes take place in
Speaker 1: a day, but they shoot for eight days. You know,
Speaker 1: we're in the makeup trailer, running lines. Um, we're working
Speaker 1: in their rehearsing in stuff before we go to set,
Speaker 1: and the teamsters are there even longer. You know, it's like, ye,
Speaker 1: we're there longer than the set crew. And then the
Speaker 1: teamsters and the you know, the people setting everything up
Speaker 1: or there way before us and way after us. So
Speaker 1: there is a it's a pyramid of on a film set. Guys,
Speaker 1: it takes a long time. It takes a very long time.
Speaker 1: I always used to feel kind of bad when people would,
Speaker 1: you know, come and watch us filming, because they'd be
Speaker 1: so excited the first day they got there, and then
Speaker 1: by like the second or third day, they were like, wow,
Speaker 1: so you're just still You're just still doing this, huh.
Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, guys, for you to have a forty
Speaker 1: five minute episode takes us like eight or nine days
Speaker 1: of sixteen hour days. We're sorry, it's not as entertaining
Speaker 1: as you'd hope. God forbid, it's a group scene where
Speaker 1: there's like, you know, seven people in one scene. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just it's going to move then all day long. Yeah,
Speaker 1: God forbid. You bring a guest on those days. They
Speaker 1: just so bored. I remember what I did Um one
Speaker 1: the movies that I did, Maria did a little cameo
Speaker 1: in because we were in Romania and she was with
Speaker 1: me on set. It was so cute and there was
Speaker 1: a little like um hot chocolate stand that I was
Speaker 1: supposed to be buying hot chocolate and brownies from and
Speaker 1: so I'm interacting with the young boy who's taking who's
Speaker 1: has the speaking lines, and she was sitting right next
Speaker 1: to him taking my money. Um, and she, you know,
Speaker 1: she had so much fun. It was like two hours
Speaker 1: and it was cold, and we were over my shoulder
Speaker 1: onto them. The camera was over my shoulder onto them,
Speaker 1: and she does her little thing and takes her money.
Speaker 1: She's actually very good, and she really was, but you know,
Speaker 1: she's just counts the money on her own and she's
Speaker 1: doing all her own little acting things. And I was like, wow,
Speaker 1: this is great. And then we go to lunch and
Speaker 1: then she says, Okay, Mommy, I'm gonna I'm like, oh no, no,
Speaker 1: maybe you have to stay. We have to turn the
Speaker 1: cameras around. She just looked at me, like, you've got
Speaker 1: to be kidding me. Wait. I said, yeah, it's probably
Speaker 1: gonna be another two hours, maybe three, and she just
Speaker 1: was like, uh, that was the last time she ever
Speaker 1: wanted to do anything on so ridiculous, take so much time. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't trade any of it for the world. You
Speaker 1: guys not. We lived together, That's why you know philm
Speaker 1: film sets are like you know, incestuous and weird. But
Speaker 1: we're together all day, every have fun day. These were
Speaker 1: good questions forever. Thank you guys so much. Keep them
