0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 3>everyone thinks I am. But yes, I'll take.

0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Go with it, go with it. Wow, it's so nice

0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 1>to see. We had just watched the episode.

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:07.040
<v Speaker 2>In season five Everybody last week.

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:09.679
<v Speaker 1>In Real World where you play the character of Tuck.

0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, which was odd because our producer and co host

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:17.839
<v Speaker 2>Amy was talking about her hemorhids and were like talk.

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh, sure, as one does normal.

0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>But we were enjoying your performance, and you were really

0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:29.119
<v Speaker 1>good at riding that bike, and you looked really cute

0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:32.559
<v Speaker 1>in that hat. I don't know have you revisited lately

0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 1>lately than wow?

0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:36.360
<v Speaker 3>You know it's funny because I think I had when

0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:39.760
<v Speaker 3>I came into the audition. David Semmel directed the episode.

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 3>And when I came into the audition, I had said

0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:43.960
<v Speaker 3>on my on my special Skills it said that I

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:47.080
<v Speaker 3>could ride a unicycle, which I did in college in

0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 3>a show. And he said, can you still can you

0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 3>ride a unicycle? And I said, yeah, yeah, and I

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:58.080
<v Speaker 3>if I remember, there was a unicycle on set and

0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:00.720
<v Speaker 3>I could not ride it as well and as quickly

0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:04.360
<v Speaker 3>as David wanted me to. So then we it became

0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 3>a bike, and I say, much better because.

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 1>You like you circled dress rounds there that would have

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:13.960
<v Speaker 1>been hard to do on a you.

0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.200
<v Speaker 3>Cycle, and it was, and I was very I got

0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 3>very nervous. I was like, oh no, I'm gonna be fired.

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:19.920
<v Speaker 3>This is not I can't do this, and.

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 2>I lied, I can't assumed you were offered that part.

0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:27.080
<v Speaker 2>I assumed for some reason, which is weird that you

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:28.600
<v Speaker 2>were friends with Priestley.

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 3>Like, no, no, Tori, that's a wonderful assumption, but no,

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 3>I auditioned for that part. That was like the second

0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:36.880
<v Speaker 3>or third thing I did. I think when I was in.

0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 2>I know you so much.

0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 1>I just wait, it was the second or third thing

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:43.359
<v Speaker 1>when you started acting. This was the second or third

0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 1>thing you got.

0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. When I came to La Yeah, wow, sorry, I

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:49.720
<v Speaker 3>did an episode. My first thing was an episode of Allen,

0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:53.840
<v Speaker 3>and then I did some commercials and then yeah, when

0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:55.360
<v Speaker 3>I was was one of the first things.

0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:57.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh I love that.

0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.920
<v Speaker 2>How was it walking on to set all of us there, like,

0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:04.240
<v Speaker 2>not just working with one or two like we were

0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 2>all there.

0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:06.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean it was great. You know, I didn't I

0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:09.720
<v Speaker 3>didn't watch the show as much as like my sister,

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:13.960
<v Speaker 3>who was a ginormous fan, so I was like, okay,

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:15.799
<v Speaker 3>you know this is I think. I was also nervous,

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:18.200
<v Speaker 3>just because it was one of my first gigs. So

0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:20.440
<v Speaker 3>it was, you know, wanting to be good, wanting to

0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 3>everyone to like me and know all those things that

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:26.440
<v Speaker 3>an actor goes through. But everyone was really kind and

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:28.480
<v Speaker 3>I remember having a good time once I kind of

0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:29.400
<v Speaker 3>got into it.

0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm. That's good. So when you started as an actor,

0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:37.560
<v Speaker 1>you studied acting and you studied improv before you ever

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:39.480
<v Speaker 1>moved to LA or after you moved to LA.

0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:41.320
<v Speaker 3>No, I did. I went to UH. I mean, I

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 3>started in children's theater and I was about eleven, and

0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 3>I did acting all through high school. And then I

0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 3>went to studied theater at SMU, Southern Methodist University.

0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:51.520
<v Speaker 2>My dad went there.

0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, yeah, that's so funny. They had a wonderful

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:56.800
<v Speaker 3>theater program. And I did that. And then I'm from

0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:59.440
<v Speaker 3>Chicago originally, so I came back to Chicago and did

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:02.520
<v Speaker 3>theater and started a company, started working with a company

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:05.600
<v Speaker 3>called looking Glass and yeah, and then I I kind

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.000
<v Speaker 3>of made the move out to LA.

0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:12.240
<v Speaker 1>And how long was it once you moved that you

0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:13.560
<v Speaker 1>got your first job? Do you remember?

0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:18.279
<v Speaker 3>I came out for almost nine almost a year. I

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 3>did it. My first movie was Not Was a League

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:22.039
<v Speaker 3>of their Own.

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:23.320
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 3>I was in that. And then I when that came out,

0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:28.040
<v Speaker 3>I came to LA and I was like, yeah, huh,

0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 3>and nothing happened, and I went back to Chicago for

0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:34.440
<v Speaker 3>almost a year, and then I came back and I

0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:38.280
<v Speaker 3>roomed with still one of my dearest bestest friends, David Swimmer,

0:04:38.279 --> 0:04:41.400

<v Speaker 2>He's amazing.

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:15.560
<v Speaker 1>That was like thirty years ago.

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:16.480

<v Speaker 3>it's it's yeah. Good.

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.320
<v Speaker 2>May I ask why were you never on Friends?

0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:29.080
<v Speaker 3>That is a good question. That first season, I'm not sure.

0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:31.200
<v Speaker 3>But then I got onto a show called The Single Guy,

0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:31.760
<v Speaker 3>which I.

0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:33.800
<v Speaker 2>Know Jonathan Silverman, Yeah, which was.

0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:36.479
<v Speaker 3>Great, after which lasted a couple of years after kind

0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 3>of that same after Friends, timestop. But I don't know

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:42.159
<v Speaker 3>why I wasn't on Friends. I should have been, duh.

0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:44.599
<v Speaker 1>Do you know when you went to audition for the

0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:46.800
<v Speaker 1>show that it was based off the real world San

0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:49.239
<v Speaker 1>Francisco character of Puck.

0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:53.040
<v Speaker 3>Yes you did. No, I did know that, and so

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:55.240
<v Speaker 3>that was kind of yeah, because I mean, the real

0:05:55.279 --> 0:05:57.560
<v Speaker 3>world was was huge back then, right, and that wasn't

0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:01.200
<v Speaker 3>that the second season? The same Francisco was the second season?

0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:04.159
<v Speaker 1>I think seems like it, no idea. I would think

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:04.440
<v Speaker 1>that he.

0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Just threw some trivia in there that we don't know where.

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.279
<v Speaker 1>It was the first season in New York, New York. Okay,

0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:13.800
<v Speaker 1>m interesting that they would go to San fran for

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:14.600
<v Speaker 1>the second season.

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I believe that was the second season.

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 2>You're right.

0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:22.960
<v Speaker 1>So then there's one scene at the beach house where

0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 1>you come in and you see that Brandon is dressed

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:30.159
<v Speaker 1>like your character, and Brandon stood there laughing at you

0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:34.159
<v Speaker 1>uncomfortably for us, it was uncomfortable to watch. Do you

0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 1>remember the laugh? Was that a real laugh from Jason?

0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:39.839
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember he just kept.

0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:43.120
<v Speaker 2>Going amongst the million things you've done since this is

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:46.600
<v Speaker 2>what he remember? We were, Yeah, Well.

0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:48.640
<v Speaker 3>Well, do you think his laugh was like making fun

0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:50.960
<v Speaker 3>of the actor playing the character or do you think

0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:52.359
<v Speaker 3>he was just Jen.

0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:54.160
<v Speaker 2>Heard a bit of his real laugh coming.

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:55.280
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't tell.

0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.719
<v Speaker 3>So I don't know. I don't know. I think I

0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:03.640
<v Speaker 3>remember remember maybe being a little nervous, like is he

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:05.039
<v Speaker 3>laughing at me or with me?

0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:09.119
<v Speaker 4>Or oh wait, you guys had to redo that because

0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:12.520
<v Speaker 4>it was it didn't line up correct. I feel like

0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:14.960
<v Speaker 4>it was like the third time you guys had to

0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:16.560
<v Speaker 4>redo it. So he was laughing.

0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:20.360
<v Speaker 3>Am I oh like three like three different takes? Is

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 3>that what you're saying?

0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:23.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because they needed that like perfect, and it just

0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 2>like timing wise and everyone doing their thing wasn't working.

0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 3>Maybe I'm just glad I didn't mess up the take.

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:34.320
<v Speaker 1>But it kills me to think that you were in

0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>your head thinking is Jason Pracy laughing at my knees?

0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Or is he laughing at my character? Because I was

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 1>I was thinking the same thing watching it.

0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:46.800
<v Speaker 2>For ten years, So I thought you were thinking that

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 2>for ten years.

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:52.240
<v Speaker 1>No, no, and then yeah, that was it. That was

0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:53.920
<v Speaker 1>the last we saw of you. But that was not

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:57.520
<v Speaker 1>certainly not the last of your extensive resume.

0:07:57.720 --> 0:07:59.160
<v Speaker 3>You are his career.

0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Wow, you a lot. That's got to feel good.

0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:06.480
<v Speaker 3>It's good. It's good. I would like to work more,

0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 3>but yes, it's good.

0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:09.680
<v Speaker 1>I think everyone says that.

0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Sure, my kids would kill me if I didn't ask

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 2>which voices you did in Family Guy?

0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:19.040
<v Speaker 3>Oh, Family Guy. You know it's funny. I did the

0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:21.160
<v Speaker 3>first Yeah, I was on the first season. I think

0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:24.040
<v Speaker 3>maybe the second or third season, I played like, oh,

0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.040
<v Speaker 3>maybe there was a Daryl Holland and John Oates. I

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:29.080
<v Speaker 3>played one of those guys. I played man at Circus.

0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.120
<v Speaker 3>You know. I played all the parts that all the

0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:35.199
<v Speaker 3>funnies that that I that Seth didn't do. You know,

0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:40.600
<v Speaker 3>Seth does like fifteen or feels like fifteen voices an episode.

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:42.880
<v Speaker 3>But I so I had some other little episode. I

0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 3>remember auditioning for the part of the kid that Seth

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 3>Green got, but they were kind enough to kind of

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:51.120
<v Speaker 3>still bring me in and have me do some other voices.

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.679
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, it's awesome. It's a funny show.

0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Tell us what you've been up to. I know you

0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:57.120
<v Speaker 1>just had a movie come out, didn't you.

0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I did this Ethan Cohen film called Drive Away Dolls,

0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:06.200
<v Speaker 3>this crazy, wacky lesbian road trip comedy, and it came

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.720
<v Speaker 3>out in the theaters. It opened on the twenty third,

0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:12.400
<v Speaker 3>I think, yeah, and I play I play a hit man.

0:09:12.800 --> 0:09:17.920
<v Speaker 3>And it was a great phenomenal experience doing it and

0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:20.640
<v Speaker 3>I've gotten. I've been lucky because Ethan is also a

0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 3>wonderful playwright. So I've been in about four of his

0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:26.400
<v Speaker 3>plays and we've done most of those in New York City,

0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 3>and then we did one at the Taper in Los

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:32.320
<v Speaker 3>Angeles twenty nineteen called a Play is a Poem. So

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:34.720
<v Speaker 3>I've had this great kind of working relationship with him,

0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:36.960
<v Speaker 3>and then I got to do a film amazing.

0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.440

<v Speaker 1>That's it permanent.

0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:30.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I was in New York for my wife and

0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:31.440
<v Speaker 3>I weren't well. She was. She was in New York

0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:32.880
<v Speaker 3>for a long time. But I was in New York

0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:35.600
<v Speaker 3>for about fourteen years. After being in LA for like

0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:38.880
<v Speaker 3>twelve years and then yeah, we thought this would be

0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:40.800
<v Speaker 3>a good place to settle for a bit. We have

0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 3>a daughter and she goes to school right across the

0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:45.760
<v Speaker 3>from she she's seven, seven.

0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.040
<v Speaker 1>And you get to walk her to school like normal people.

0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Like my youngest just turned seven, so good age. It's

0:10:56.360 --> 0:11:02.079
<v Speaker 2>they're no longer babies and they're yeah, little tiny adults

0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:06.920
<v Speaker 2>that challenge you and make you laugh and very clever.

0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:09.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she's just grown up right in front of my eyes.

0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:09.920
<v Speaker 3>That's pretty wild.

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:14.480
<v Speaker 1>If you could say, like, what was your favorite TV show,

0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:16.720
<v Speaker 1>like just limited to TV shows, if you could say

0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>what was your favorite TV show that you were ever on?

0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:20.240
<v Speaker 1>What would it be because you were on a lot

0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:21.320
<v Speaker 1>of them.

0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:23.720

<v Speaker 3>or just like yeah, yest spotter.

0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.160
<v Speaker 1>But you will like to have a lasting memory from

0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:30.240
<v Speaker 1>because and also there are going to be so many

0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>more but that have been on.

0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:56.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean there's oh my god, what did you do

0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:57.520

<v Speaker 3>who was uh you know, I mean not the most

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:44.280
<v Speaker 3>up and up plastic surgeon. Well, no, I think there

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:48.120
<v Speaker 3>was a while he certainly he got a little waylaid.

0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:51.439
<v Speaker 2>But yes, what do you do?

0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 3>Oh? Because he started to do I think there was

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.640
<v Speaker 3>an episode where he had to he was trying to

0:12:57.080 --> 0:13:00.400
<v Speaker 3>work on a dog, like there was a niptok that

0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:02.800
<v Speaker 3>he had to do with a dog or something. I

0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:05.839
<v Speaker 3>have to I would have to go back in my

0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:06.839
<v Speaker 3>my rolodex of shows.

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:10.400
<v Speaker 2>He was a bad doctor. Yeah, he wasn't great, bad guy,

0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:12.000
<v Speaker 2>bad guy, but.

0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:13.600
<v Speaker 3>He was full of confidence, so that was good.

0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to know this. I want to know since

0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:20.960
<v Speaker 1>you've done so many different forms, different ways of you know,

0:13:21.080 --> 0:13:25.840
<v Speaker 1>acting on theater, in the theater and in TV shows

0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:30.120
<v Speaker 1>and in movies, like which is your favorite platform?

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 3>Theater, theater, no doubt about it, and why you know,

0:13:36.200 --> 0:13:38.240
<v Speaker 3>just that's how I started doing a play. There's nothing

0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:40.360
<v Speaker 3>better than doing a play. There's nothing better than than

0:13:40.400 --> 0:13:43.640
<v Speaker 3>rehearsing for four or five weeks and with a group

0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:49.720
<v Speaker 3>of artists performing. It's always different every night, and there's

0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 3>that strange, wonderful repetition, the illusion of the first time

0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 3>and you're doing it again as though you've never done

0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:57.760
<v Speaker 3>it before. You've never said the words before, you've never

0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:00.840
<v Speaker 3>heard the words coming out of your partners before. But

0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:03.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, there's just it's there's something beautiful about

0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:05.000
<v Speaker 3>this kind of shared experience. And yes, you can have

0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:07.400
<v Speaker 3>it in a movie theater, certainly, but when it's live

0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:10.200
<v Speaker 3>and it's happening, it's it's just the best.

0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:14.560
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing like it. Yeah, I've always wanted to feel

0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:18.040
<v Speaker 1>that feeling. I've never done theater, but you should, a

0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:19.040
<v Speaker 1>lot of people have said.

0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:24.600
<v Speaker 2>That great energy and the audience and.

0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:26.880
<v Speaker 1>The camaraderie, like you said that, just like common goal

0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:29.720
<v Speaker 1>that you have as a cast every night, and you

0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:32.640
<v Speaker 1>have to you have to depend on one another to

0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:35.800
<v Speaker 1>make it happen. It's not just about one person, no, completely,

0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:40.920
<v Speaker 1>and there's there's no cutting, there's no recess.

0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 3>No exactly.

0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm.

0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:44.240
