Every time you are yeah, yeah, 57 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, not like competitive or anything, but 58 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: you know, I picked it up late in life.

And I'm not equating myself with 204 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 2: with Daniel Day, but it was the word he used. 205 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 2: He said, he goes, I wasn't trying to be coy 206 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: or play hard to get paraphrasing, but I just I 207 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: needed to make sure I could be an ally an 208 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 2: ally And I thought, what a beautiful sentiment that is. 209 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,199 Speaker 2: And so you know, being an ally being in the 210 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 2: because you know, it's if we do our things right 211 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 2: and conscientiously. You know, you're in the trenches, you're you're 212 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 2: coming to work. Yeah, yeah, if you you know, if 213 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: if you care and are engaged in it. That's my fear. 214 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 2: That's how it strikes me. 215 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, which makes sense. It's I I think we did 216 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: a movie together, the one I mentioned. Maybe that's why 217 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: there's all too credits here. 218 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 2: Because when you've got you in life. 219 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, me and you in a movie, imagine. 220 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: But it you take for granted. I think as a 221 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: viewer sometimes just how much goes into making a movie 222 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: happen of any variety. So the notion that you would 223 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 1: take a job prioritizing the desire to be an ally 224 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: is something special and I also think something very important 225 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: because it's like you're going to be in the trenches together, 226 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: as you said, Yeah, yeah. 227 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 2: It's also the idea of, you know, making films is 228 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 2: a lot of waiting and you know, do I feel 229 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 2: like doing that, you know, in the middle of summer, 230 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 2: do I just kind of wait around? Yeah? And then 231 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: you know that you're going to have creativity and the 232 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 2: collaborative process of creating. You know, you just you're really 233 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 2: always thinking and trying and practice, rehearsing and yeah, yeah. 234 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: What do you remember your first job as an actor 235 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: and what was it like? 236 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 2: Paid? My first paid job was for a Belgium hamburger 237 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 2: outfit called Quick Burgers, and I almost missed it because 238 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 2: they were calling, calling, calling, I was out all day. 239 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: It was before cell phones. No one could get a 240 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 2: hold of me. And my roommate, another unemployed actor, was 241 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 2: like in a panic. When I arrived. He goes, you've 242 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 2: got a call. You've got a call by five o'clock 243 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 2: or they'll give it to someone else. It was like 244 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 2: five or five, and I just remember the panic and 245 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,959 Speaker 2: great boom called yes, okay, it's yours.

I think it's gonna be silly fun. 627 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to be interested to see how it's received. 628 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: Are you worried a little bit? 629 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 2: No? No, no, no, because you know, to guess what people 630 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 2: like or don't like. That is absolutely not my gift. 631 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:16,839 Speaker 2: I've never had a feel for it. So I subsequently 632 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 2: I don't really care well because I don't not my job, 633 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 2: not my prollem. 634 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 1: Do you read reviews of your work or what people 635 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 1: have to say about you and your work? 636 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 2: Ever, I don't search it out if it's presented to me, 637 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 2: which it more often is than not. I'm happy to 638 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 2: I don't watch myself. I don't like to watch myself really, 639 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 2: Oh my god. 640 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: Yess why is I don't really love to watch myself either? 641 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 2: But why is that for you? Because I think it's 642 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 2: again the patterning that we all have, you know, the 643 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 2: anxiety thing we were talking about earlier. I think that 644 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 2: we hold on to the things that we had that 645 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 2: we feel consciously or not unconsciously, godess to where we are. 646 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: So I've always had a very loud critic in my head, 647 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 2: which is good because it makes you bulletproof against anybody. 648 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,839 Speaker 2: I mean, if someone critiques me, I couldn't give a 649 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 2: rat ass why because the worst guy is in my head, damn. 650 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 2: So it doesn't matter. Man, Yeah, your hack, you're a dealist. 651 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:43,919 Speaker 2: I'm like, first of all, dealist. I'm like, of all 652 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 2: the important things in life that's on my deal list, 653 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 2: I don't care. I don't care about that stuff. So 654 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 2: I think that comes forward and I have a difficult 655 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 2: time enjoying the movies, like sitting next to the guy 656 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 2: who's fucking talking and it's me. I just keep wanting 657 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 2: to go shut up. Yeah, I know I missed that beat. 658 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 1: We know, Ah, Chris Is I mean, are you a perfectionist? 659 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:19,879 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that. I think just think I'm a 660 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,320 Speaker 2: hard on myself, and I think that that's how I 661 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 2: motivated myself to push through moments of procrastination or moments 662 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 2: of inaction or you know, like if I fucked up 663 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 2: an audition. You know, you ever see Once upon a 664 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: Time in Hollywood?

And 703 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 2: I've told this that I was in college and I 704 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 2: guess I just I didn't know what the fuck I 705 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 2: was or what I wanted to do. And there were 706 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 2: a lot of people who were, you know, he's studying 707 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 2: to be a chiropractor or a physical therapist, or you know, 708 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 2: they're going to go into banking. They had these paths 709 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:20,920 Speaker 2: and I didn't. And I was a solid B plus 710 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 2: student just couldn't get a's or you know everyone's. I went, 711 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 2: but I went. I as an elective. I took out 712 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 2: an acting class and it was the first time in 713 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 2: my life that I felt that I knew more than 714 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 2: anyone in the class, and I knew how much I 715 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 2: didn't know, which I thought was really important for me. 716 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 2: And that was it. So I got the bug then, 717 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:46,879 Speaker 2: and then I just decided to go up to New York. 718 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, is there a reason you didn't think like, oh, 719 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to be an athlete. 720 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:59,319 Speaker 2: You played sports. Yeah, the sport tells you, Okay, you're 721 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 2: going to be an athlete, do not. 722 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, can you say more about that, because. 723 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 2: Well, your your football season ends. Sure, not a letter, 724 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 2: not a call, oh, not an interest okay? And do 725 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 2: you know you you know your arm is not particularly dynamic. 726 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 2: You're not the fleetest of foot, you know, I. 727 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: You know, you know, you know you were you on 728 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 1: a team at any point with someone who didn't know 729 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: who was like I'm gonna you you at one point 730 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: during season you thought you were that guy. 731 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 2: Maybe I had the potential to be a guy. 732 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:45,800 Speaker 1: Okay, and then after I wasn't even. 733 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 2: In contention. Yeah, I went to the University of Colorado 734 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 2: thinking I'll be a walk on. Bro go D three. 735 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 2: If you want to play football, go to a D 736 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 2: three school. And even then you're gonna have to pay 737 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 2: your dues. I mean, it's it's a real journey you 738 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 2: want to continue your football career. Yeah, And I think 739 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,759 Speaker 2: and I had nightmares for almost a decade for not 740 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 2: playing football in college. 741 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 1: For not so you didn't play football, you could take 742 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 1: me a walk on yeah, I. 743 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 2: Saw the starting quarterback at University of Colorado. Yeah, he 744 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 2: was six four. I see. I thought he was a 745 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 2: d lineman. I thought I saw Okay, I went, oh, 746 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,240 Speaker 2: I mean you know, they're just built differently there. 747 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, think about the people with the genetics, not for 748 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: the sport they they play, but then somehow pushed through 749 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: And I'm like, the mind you have to have to 750 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:48,360 Speaker 1: be like, is it? Oh my gosh, the short basketball 751 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 1: player from Baltimore. Do you know who I'm talking about, 752 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: Moxy Bos. Yeah, I'm like, you just went for it 753 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: even though the body was telling a different story like that. 754 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: It's a different kind of mental resilience to me. 755 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 2: But well, I think of Jalen. 756 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:09,359 Speaker 1: I know that six two. Jalen's six too. I read 757 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: somewhere shorter. 758 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,240 Speaker 2: I think that's being. 759 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,760 Speaker 1: Generous, But they lie about athletes, even in college. College 760 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: will be like he's five to ten, it's like five eight, okay, 761 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: but yeah, so we think he's maybe shorter than six two. 762 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:24,919 Speaker 2: But you know, for him, it's just I've never he's 763 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 2: a rare mental toughness individual. That's just what I see 764 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 2: when I feel as though this whole season has perplexed me. 765 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 2: Because I've rarely seen an individual will his team to 766 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 2: the ultimate win. That's how it always came. All when 767 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:55,319 Speaker 2: they were down twenty nine points and I'm one of 768 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 2: the other million people going, you know, well fuck this, 769 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 2: you know, okay, not too yeah yeah, and that they 770 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:08,760 Speaker 2: just were so resilient. Yeah, that's tough. 771 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:12,279 Speaker 1: What a team though. I feel like I get the 772 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: sense they also like each other. But you never know, 773 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,799 Speaker 1: but I'm like, I get the sense they like each other. 774 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 1: It seemed to be a camaraderie, yeah, which I think 775 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 1: goes a long way. And I heard him say that 776 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: he got rid of social media at some point, at 777 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 1: least during the playoffs, didn't have it. And he's like, 778 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 1: no noise, no noise whatsoever. And I'm like, that is important. 779 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 1: It worked, which is exciting to bear witness too. We'll 780 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:39,839 Speaker 1: forgive you for that one game you attended where. 781 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 2: And your police escorts. 782 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 1: We'll forgive you as the city because they won. 783 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 2: They won. 784 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 1: Are you gonna You're not gonna get to go to 785 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 1: the parade, premiere, press and premiere.

And sometimes, 996 00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 2: in my opinion, there's a timber or a tone of 997 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 2: bullying and almost they and I think I think it's 998 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 2: kind of that psychological warfare to let you know, we 999 00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 2: don't need you that much.
