It popped around, yes, 348 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 1: and then I'll pop on and yeah it was. It 349 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 1: was a fun time because I had just gotten engaged 350 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 1: and so I have a lot of like I remember 351 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: I remember the phones, like the big giant knew, but 352 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: they were flipped and all you guys had them. And 353 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: I remember I had just gotten when I was like, yes, 354 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: I got the right flip fall or not flip fall. 355 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,479 Speaker 1: But it was like you know the cell. Remember who 356 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: your false friend was, like when you showed up on set? 357 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: Who you like made friends with? Like first, you know what? 358 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: Who I made friends with was? Luke? Yeah? Yeah, I 359 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 1: mean you hear that. I know you hear so many answer. 360 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: So he I was in the makeup trailer. I was 361 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: looking over my lines and he bounces in to the 362 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: trailer and he goes, hey, Broke, He goes, how are you? 363 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: He goes, do you remember we did a soap reading together. 364 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: I was the guy reader, so I had I had 365 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: tested for something, so I can't I can't even remember. 366 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: And he was the reader and I I want to say, 367 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: did he get the part? Or did they I think 368 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: they just called him in to read. I think he 369 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: must have been friends with the casting director or something. 370 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if they weren't, I don't know if 371 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: he was, are the character was already on the show 372 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: or they haven't cast him? But he read with me 373 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: and then he's like, and I'm really good friends with 374 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 1: Bill Kirkenbauer, who plays your dad on Just the Ten 375 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: of Us. So, um, so it was in media connection 376 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: and he was just very lovely. So yeah, yeah, we 377 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: hear that a lot from everybody. Of course, it makes sense, 378 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: I know, right, And so it's a it's heartbreaking. All 379 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: of that's heartbreaking and it's shocking. So and I'm sure 380 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 1: I have no idea how you guys took the news 381 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: when you found that out of a deer cast member, 382 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: it must have been really hard. It's really hard to 383 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: lose people. And as we all get older, that's it 384 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: seems more and more common and you see it happening 385 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: to other people and other casts, you know, and it's 386 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: because it's like your family totally. And when you worked 387 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: that along with someone, yeah, you guys did ten seasons. 388 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: That's it's incredible. And yeah, when you lose somebody, it hurts. Yeah, 389 00:22:46,760 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: loss is hard mm hm. When you were on, it 390 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 1: was really the height. So this was really as the 391 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,719 Speaker 1: show was. It had build, built building, it's just at 392 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: its height. So did and you did a lot of episodes, 393 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: I mean seven nine is a lot of episodes were 394 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: you recognized as Leslie Sumner immediately once it started airing. Now, 395 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: the funny thing is, I don't know. I've always tried 396 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: to be kind of a chameleon in my characters and 397 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: my roles, and I rarely get recognized, so like, like, 398 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: even just like just The Ten of Us with the 399 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: big poofy curly hair and um um nightmare on Elm Street, 400 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 1: I wore a wig. I looked like I was forty one. 401 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: You did not look forty I did. Jenny is so 402 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: much nicer than me. You look younger now, I'm gonna 403 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: say it, you look younger now. I did. So I 404 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: really have like I have this like kind of It 405 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: was kind of cool. And then and my mother sometimes 406 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 1: didn't recognize me. She began, oh my god, I'm watching 407 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 1: this show. And I'm like, I didn't recognize you, but 408 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: I heard your voice, and I was like, oh, that's good. 409 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 1: I'm accomplishing what I lot. Good. That's nice to be 410 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: able to just go live your life and not to 411 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: worry about that. Yeah. I mean, obviously, probably just The 412 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: Ten of Us was the most that I got recognized 413 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 1: when I was that age, because I looked probably the 414 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 1: closest in my real life to her. But everything else 415 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: I looked very different. So I kind of like that 416 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: were you plumped when you got nine o two and 417 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: oh so excited?

I think 500 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: you're at five hundred dollars. Yeah, It's like when I 501 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: first started working there, I was like, I remember I 502 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: asked one of the front desk people. I was like, 503 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: don't you like hand over the bill? Like, oh god, 504 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. And now I'm like thousand bucks not 505 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: when two massage is done. You know, it's so weird that, like, 506 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: you know, I remember when one of our trainings, we 507 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: were told that the Beverly Hills Hotel caters to the 508 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: top one of the ten percent most wealthiest people. So 509 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: it's kind of a crazy world to live in. Okay, 510 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: So have you ever gotten somebody that comes into the 511 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: to get a massage and you're like, I don't want 512 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: to touch this person. I can't do it. Once in 513 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: a while, I was gonna ask if you get lots 514 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: of celebrities, which I bet you did, so I do, 515 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: but I'll tell you off camera. Yeah yeah, yeah, you 516 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: can't read what I get in trouble. I don't know. 517 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: I'm sure I can, but just in case, it's like 518 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: it's like a therapist. You can't reveal your like if 519 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: they're in the hotel. I definitely can't say. But I 520 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: don't know who's in the hotel this week because I 521 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: haven't been to But yeah, I'm happy for you.

So somebody wants to give me 525 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: a job, that's great to do it now, because you 526 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: look good everything. I need to be a weirdo. But 527 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: like what I mean, at sixty, she's not gonna look 528 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: good enough. Well, I'm just saying, like carpet dim Yeah, 529 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: it's so hard. It's a really hard juggle because I'm 530 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: full time status there and I have to maintain certain 531 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: hours and I can't. I don't have flex ability of 532 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: you know, I used to. And I also have a 533 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: fourteen year old daughter and I kind of just I 534 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: have my little blinders on. And once she goes to 535 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: college and I'm gonna go retire someplace and just like 536 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: you know, see what happens. Yeah, yeah, open that door. 537 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: My friend Heather laning Camp, you know who, Um, she 538 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: had some horrible tragedy in her life and and I'm 539 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: still friends with her, like I said, And I think 540 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: it was a year ago or maybe two years ago, 541 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: we were sitting at the beach. She told me about 542 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: her secret beach at Malibu. So I always go and 543 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: like I'm down here, come on, and so she'll come 544 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: down and and I remember she was talking and she said, 545 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: you know, my daughter is getting married and I'm finally 546 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: ready to open the door to acting again. And then 547 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: she booked an amazing show on Netflix. So you know 548 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: when you open the doors that you know, you manifest ups. 549 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: That's pretty cool. Then the Midnight Club on on on Netflix. 550 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: She just booked. You see her, she you always see 551 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: her from time to time, and she's definitely recognized her. 552 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was because she terrified me 553 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: and I literally had to slip through my parents bed 554 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: for a month, like it looks the same, yeah, Neber 555 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: that gray, Yeah, the gray. She woke up one morning, like, 556 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: you know, with the freaking streaty. Have you ever seen 557 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: him on Elm Street, Jenny, I don't know, honestly, I 558 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't know. If you're like, is that the one where 559 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 1: he stands you like this in the shower, Psycho, I'm 560 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: so bad with dad literally gets like sucked into a bed. No, 561 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: I never saw that, but I saw the one with 562 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: Kevin Bacon. That's a different one. Tremors. No, no, uh yeah, 563 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: he's that one. Kevin Bacon. Bacon was original and yeah, wow, 564 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: I didn't know that. That's crazy. I didn't know that. Um. 565 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: The nice thing about the I thing about horror movies 566 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: for actresses, which I still like to color us actors, um, 567 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: but is there are the female is always the heroine. 568 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: We know, you know, it's it's always been that way 569 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: since the seventies, and I think it's like the only 570 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: genre where the women get to be have always gotten 571 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: to be strong five the powerhouse, and it's really kind 572 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: of cool. And I think that's also why horror has 573 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: such big fans, because you have a lot of female 574 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: fans out there that love watching strong female characters. And 575 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: there has always been, you know, from Jamie Lee Curtis 576 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 1: to yeah, strong female roles in horror. Well, maybe that's 577 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: why they like Leslie Sumner have a second chance at it, 578 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: because you're like cool. They're like, we can't get rid 579 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: of Brook yet you're too fun to have around. We 580 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: made Leslie suck, but maybe will give her a side. 581 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: We'll just pretend she didn't do any of that. Do 582 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: you remember how does well, I guess you, how does 583 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: she leave the show? Do you leave? Like, does something happen? No? 584 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: I was like in the sixth season I was doing. 585 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: I think what happened was just the kind of the 586 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 1: whole Rose Parade and Rose Bowl kind of you know, 587 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: it came, it ran its course, and then they just 588 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: didn't need me to kind of run that anymore.
