I suddenly broke out from our primaries 519 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 3: and don't know what it was. But of course the 520 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 3: tabloids decided there was a reason. 521 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 2: How did you remember, specifically twenty third birthday? I have 522 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 2: a good memory. I would never remember that. 523 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: Maybe because you were so shocked to get the invitation. 524 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, but well it was it was I wonder what was? 525 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 3: It was a weird one, and it was also an 526 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 3: interesting lesson that I had in life because the big 527 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 3: fight was happening. One of the guys who was fing 528 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 3: I actually was. I was. I don't know what it was. 529 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 3: It was the time of my life. I was in 530 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 3: Jesus mode. I don't know, but I grabbed this big, hulking, 531 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 3: massive guy and just I'm holding him a whole him 532 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 3: like this, Like the big man walks away the big 533 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 3: man walks away. You b calmed him down, and he's 534 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 3: trying to the door, and then the bouncers grab him 535 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 3: and the fight starts again because they're violent too. 536 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: There. I don't know. 537 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 3: I think you would remember a big fight again. 538 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 2: You'd be typical Thursday night out. No, every time. 539 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 3: Because I got it involved, because I decided to pretend 540 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,479 Speaker 3: that I could solve the problem. 541 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: And I feel like you did.

Yes, I've 628 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 3: done some strange jobs. I was a working for a 629 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 3: wine liquor store and as a delivery driver in Louisiana 630 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 3: during COVID. Okay, and I had to go. 631 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: That was that was a necessity for people. 632 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 3: Nobody was on the road, so the police weren't stopping anybody, 633 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 3: because who was going to stop anybody? You'd have to 634 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 3: talk to them. So we were the heroes of the 635 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 3: road in the medical profession, delivering liquor in Louisiana, in 636 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 3: loss in New Orleans, of course, but because of the law, 637 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 3: I would have to ask them for their birthday and 638 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 3: the holding their license up to their window, like how 639 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 3: dare you come to my door? You ordered the liquor? 640 00:33:53,080 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 3: But old people. I see old men, and I know 641 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 3: I'm twenty years older than them. They're in the forties. 642 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,959 Speaker 3: But they had they appeared to be old. They had set, 643 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:13,320 Speaker 3: they had set, they had become, they had stopped. Unfortunate. 644 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 3: So I'm My father died when he was seventy one, 645 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 3: ten years ago. But my mother said at his funeral, 646 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 3: isn't as Brian, Brian has his name Brian? Or is it? 647 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 3: Because I always used to say to Brian, growing up 648 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 3: is optional? Growing up is optional? 649 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, very wise words, Jason. 650 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 3: I stole him. I stole them. 651 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 2: One last thing though, to Jen's point, because there is 652 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 2: I feel like we all have that one number stuck 653 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 2: in our head, like you remember yourself at and for 654 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 2: some reason is there an age. 655 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 3: Well, I suppose it's going to actually be the most 656 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 3: consequential period of your life as well as that sound. 657 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 3: And that would have probably been when I went to 658 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 3: Grammar School when I was twenty. I mean I was 659 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 3: there when I was eighteen to twenty one, but I 660 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 3: was at Lambda, not the Royal had Me Acting school, 661 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 3: which of course was invented by Peter Frere. He sent 662 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 3: me the shirt. 663 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 2: Oh my god, I wondered why you had that shirt. 664 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: Of course, Peter is okay, amazing. 665 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was playing Roy Randolph now and I did 666 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 3: it totally camp and I wore wore top hat. Really, 667 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 3: I was directing epic productions and I'd married somebody who 668 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 3: had a stately home. 669 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:27,400 Speaker 2: I just had an epiphany. 670 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 3: Wait, I'm sorry about that. 671 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: What if this had. 672 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,280 Speaker 2: Happened to you, guys, because I keep bringing up Brenda 673 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 2: went there and married you or whatever and had babies. 674 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 2: But in the final episode that we ever see Brenda Walsh, 675 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 2: she says to Dylan, give me something to come back to, 676 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 2: and we allude to the fact that they make love 677 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 2: one last time. But if we were to allude to 678 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 2: the fact that when she went to get the part 679 00:35:55,680 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 2: for Maggie the cat. She made love with Roy Randolph, 680 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 2: then technically she could go away and she could have 681 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 2: come baby and be pregnant or have a baby. But 682 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 2: we don't know who the father is. It could be 683 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 2: Dylan or it could be Roy Randolph. Oh, my dad 684 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,240 Speaker 2: would be so proud, right now. 685 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 3: That's right. I don't know. Wow, this is obviously an 686 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 3: adventure that could have happened. 687 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, these things that will never know.
