WEBVTT - Here’s the Thing: Trailer

0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Hey, it's Alec Baldwin. This past season on my podcast

0:00:06.080 --> 0:00:11.360
<v Speaker 1>Here's the Thing, I spoke with more actors, musicians, policymakers,

0:00:11.360 --> 0:00:16.079
<v Speaker 1>and so many other fascinating people like actress and director

0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:20.960
<v Speaker 1>Cheryl Hines. They were looking for an unknown actress to

0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:24.279
<v Speaker 1>play Larry David's wife. I said, well, how old is

0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:30.880
<v Speaker 1>that guy? Isn't he old? Singer Kurt Smith from Tears

0:00:30.960 --> 0:00:33.120
<v Speaker 1>for Fears? You know, we have we had set up,

0:00:33.159 --> 0:00:35.600
<v Speaker 1>we have two lead singers, and I get asked, how

0:00:35.600 --> 0:00:37.559
<v Speaker 1>do you pick the songs? And It's like, to us,

0:00:37.640 --> 0:00:40.840
<v Speaker 1>it becomes very obvious. You know, if something demands vocal

0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:44.800
<v Speaker 1>acrobatics and power and in your face, that's going to

0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:48.839
<v Speaker 1>be Roland. Is something requires some touch of melancholio, slightly

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 1>younger song, or you really want to kind of listen,

0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:54.279
<v Speaker 1>that will be me. There's no songs we've ever done.

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't think why we've both gone in and both

0:00:56.560 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>think we should do it. And actor and activist Lee A. Schreiber,

0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at these guys who are painters and custodians,

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:07.840
<v Speaker 1>kissing their wives and children goodbye and getting on a

0:01:07.920 --> 0:01:10.720
<v Speaker 1>bus to go fight in a war, and I'm thinking,

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>could I say goodbye to my kids if I had to,

0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:18.679
<v Speaker 1>if I were in some existential fight for our homes

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:22.039
<v Speaker 1>and our lives, and the answer was no, Like I

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:25.360
<v Speaker 1>couldn't do that. Listen to the new season of Here's
