Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm in Austin and it's gorgeous. It's a beautiful

16
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 4: day in Paradise. It's spring and it's not hot yet

17
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 4: and it's green. It's awesome.

18
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, that's so fun. Are you, like, are

19
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 1: you doing stuff on the lake? What's keeping you busy?

20
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 4: Yep, I've been out on the water getting ready. I'm

21
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 4: going to Peru to do this surf trip that I've

22
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 4: wanted to do, like for twenty years, going and I'm

23
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 4: finally finally going. It's this wave that's like three kilometers long.

24
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 4: It's just this thing I've always wanted to do. And

25
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 4: I finally said, what am I waiting for?

26
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: Yeah?

27
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 3: So is the idea that you you ride the wave

28
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 3: for three kilometers? Is that the goal or the whole?

29
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 4: Well, you don't have to, I mean, I think that's

30
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 4: part of the attraction to me. Is to do something,

31
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 4: is to catch something, catch lightning in a bottle, something

32
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 4: that's unattainable and natural in the in the world, in nature,

33
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 4: and harness it for as long as you can without

34
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 4: having to have a machine.

35
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 3: So is the goal? Then? Is this like an operation

36
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 3: where you and at least one other buddy, you like,

37
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: park a car down approximately where the wave ends, and

38
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 3: then you drive back up to the top.

39
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 4: Well, I've done something like that, but this is better

40
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 4: because there's a booat and there's actually going to be

41
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 4: drones and cameras, and it's there's eight people and basically

42
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 4: we just tow each other into the wave and then

43
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 4: you try to ride it all the way in and

44
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 4: then you get picked up in the boat and you

45
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 4: go back out.

46
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 3: Oh that's so cool. Is this what I saw? I

47
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 3: sawn your Instagram? You were doing wall sits.

48
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 4: I'm trying to get my legs strong because the thing

49
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 4: I'm doing, like you're up for so long that your

50
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 4: your quad's just just get out.

51
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah sure, Oh cool.

52
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 1: I'm so glad to know. I mean, obviously you are,

53
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: You're a very prepared person and you're an athlete, but

54
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: I'm so glad to hear you talk about the fact

55
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: that you are training for this. I did a dumb,

56
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 1: cocky thing that really reads a theater kid who knows

57
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 1: nothing about her body. A couple of years ago. I

58
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: was like, ski season, didn't get to go last year,

59
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: Let's hit it and went up a mountain I've skied

60
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: a hundred times, not having skied in essentially two years

61
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: because I'd skipped a season, hadn't been in the gym,

62
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: hadn't done shit like all three Thanksgiving over the holidays,

63
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 1: And halfway down my first run, I was like, my

64
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: squads are going to explode. I'm gonna die. I'm like,

65
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: I want to die on this mountain just because I

66
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: forgot that I needed to, like, I don't know, do

67
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: some squats before I tried to do this again. Yeah,

68
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: it was very humbling and deeply embarrassing for me.

69
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 3: I committed the same party foul. I was asked to

70
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 3: go on this. It was sort of like an interview show,

71
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 3: but the whole thing was like you taught you do

72
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 3: the interview on the chair lift, and then you snowboarder

73
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 3: ski all the way down the mountain. I was like,

74
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 3: I was like, can you snow where? I'm like, yeah, man,

75
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 3: I snowboarded in high school. Mind you. I snow word

76
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 3: like four times in high school. And when we shot this,

77
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 3: I was thirty five years old. It didn't occur to

78
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 3: me until I was getting off the lift that I

79
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 3: was like, oh, farts, I haven't done this in like

80
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 3: eighteen years, And like you, I paid the price.

81
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 4: It probably made a bunch much better show.

82
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 3: It did. The falls were more dramatic, sure, just the flailing.

83
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: The language was more colorful.

84
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so cool. Basically, what we've learned so far today

85
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: is that Austin will be the one on the wave,

86
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: and Rob and I would likely be the friends on

87
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: the beach with the beers waiting for you, and you're.

88
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 3: Dad, dude, I'll be holding that big towel for you

89
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 3: with a chair roh or a corn dog, whatever you're into.

90
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 4: I want to be there too.

91
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: Great. We love it well.

92
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 3: We asked fans for questions and they did not disappoint.

93
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 3: So if you'll allow it, how about we just jump

94
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: right in.

95
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 4: Let's jump in.

96
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 3: Okay, First one, what did you steal from set? If anything?

97
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: A fake Eames chair? Well we did.

98
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, we put that thing right in the back of

99
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: my audie that rob ed Hardy bombed one time.

100
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, so in last season, like I think, so if

101
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 4: you tell me if I'm wrong, But it was maybe

102
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 4: like there was maybe two one or two shooting days left. Yeah,

103
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,559
Speaker 4: and we knew that the Brooks House was getting wrapped. Yep,

104
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 4: we've done shooting in there, and we were like, we

105
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 4: got to get that chair. Those chairs are so expensive

106
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 4: and the like I wouldn't never pay for one.

107
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 3: No wait, so who got the chair? You stole it together?

108
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 3: But who got the loot?

109
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 4: I think I carried it? Did I carry it? And

110
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 4: we put it Who's truck?

111
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: We put it in the back of my car in

112
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: the little hatchback station wagon. I don't know how we

113
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 1: even got it in there, but we made it work.

114
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 4: That was a good some good fever.

115
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: It was fun and it's nice to be like a

116
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: gentle thief and feel like you're in a buddy cop

117
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: movie because the two of us were like running and

118
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: then hiding behind a wall and then running, and then

119
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: Austin would be like, I'll go duck, and you know,

120
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 1: we like made it all the way through the stages

121
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: with these two pieces of furniture, the chair and the ottoman,

122
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: and by the time we got in the car, I

123
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: was like, well, that's going to be my favorite part

124
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: of this whole thing, just the caper of it.

125
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

126
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was the adventure.

127
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, made a little documentary. I think I definitely got

128
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 4: clothes over the years. But that's kind of that's so

129
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 4: that's sort of normal. What about you did, Rob? Did

130
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 4: you steal anything? Man?

131
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 3: Same as you. I close. But then the only I

132
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 3: could think of was I still have to this day

133
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 3: some Fortitude cards Clay Clay's business card, So talk about

134
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 3: being a gentle thief. While you guys were stealing large

135
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 3: pieces of designer furniture, knockoff, knock off, I was stealing

136
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 3: about five or six business cards.

137
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 4: Hilarious.

138
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: I love that I still have business cards from Good Sam.

139
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: So I have these business cards that say I'm a

140
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: cardiothoracic surgeony make me feel very smart.

141
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 3: So if I would ask you what you stole from set?

142
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 3: But I know you have a storage unit full of

143
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 3: multiple boxes of things from the show, so you don't

144
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 3: have the time for that, do we No.

145
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: I probably have like four plastic bins of stuff from

146
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: over the years. But honestly, the funniest thing is we

147
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: we capered a chair and an automan together. And the

148
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 1: most like large stuff I've quote stole from set I

149
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: stole for Hillary, like I took her. I took this big,

150
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: beautiful like maroon silk lamp shade with tassels and the

151
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: standing lamp, and then this really cool like I think

152
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: they called them telephone tables, a chair with like a

153
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: little attached side table from the fifties that your phone

154
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: would sit on. Uh, And they were from Red Bedroom Records.

155
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: And when we wrapped out the sets, obviously she wasn't

156
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: with us, and I was like, this is bullshit, I'm

157
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: taking her stuff, and so I had to. I had

158
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: to get the chair and automan out of the tiny

159
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: station wagon to then go back and lift the rest

160
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: of the stuff for her.

161
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,679
Speaker 3: Nice you did some damage, Sofia I did well done.

162
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: But listen, I own it. Here. We are that's the

163
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: same here.

164
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 3: It's also funny that the idea that you guys even

165
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 3: were trying to be sneaky about it, because no one

166
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 3: would have said boo.

167
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 4: But you don't feel like that in the moment you

168
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 4: feel like you're gonna get busted. Yeah, sure, totally.

169
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 3: But you're right.

170
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 4: I don't think anybody would have said no.

171
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 3: The crew liked you. Wait, I mean, come on, yeah,

172
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 3: I know you guys would have been fine.

173
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 5: Right.

174
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 3: Did you know from the beginning that Brooke was going

175
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 3: to be your endgame?

176
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 5: Oh?

177
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 4: I think I kind of did, but I'm trying to

178
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 4: remember how things went down. It was like, you're gonna

179
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 4: we're gonna explore the past with Peyton, and then you're

180
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 4: gonna be Brooks new love interest and then yeah, I kinda,

181
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 4: but I didn't know it was gonna go four seasons

182
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 4: and end in marriage and kids. I didn't know that.

183
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 4: I don't think.

184
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think we really could have, you know,

185
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: especially because when you came in season six, we didn't

186
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: really know what was going to happen with the show,

187
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: and then we wound up getting the seven and eight

188
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: pick up together, which had never happened before, and to

189
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: get two seasons picked up at the same time is

190
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: so surreal. So yeah, I guess I wonder if maybe

191
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 1: the reason by the middle of season eight they had

192
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: the characters get married was because everybody thought we were

193
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: going to be done at the end of eight.

194
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, we weren't sure about doing nine. Remember, I think

195
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 4: we weren't sure.

196
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 3: No, yeah, I remember they came to the cast and

197
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 3: were like, Hi, how would you guys feel about a nine?

198
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 3: And people were like, how about half a season? Yeah,

199
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 3: And so I think that's why we did the truncated thirteen, right.

200
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: Well, you know what I remember, And I was really

201
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,079
Speaker 1: proud of us all, like we grew up on the show,

202
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 1: you know, especially those of us who had been there

203
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,959
Speaker 1: since we were twenty one. I remember just not knowing

204
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: anything about the business, and by the time they came

205
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: to all of us to be like, Okay, if you're

206
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: all into a season nine, let's talk about it. What

207
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: I loved And I have this memory of all of

208
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: us being like, it feels cool. We don't feel like

209
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: we're ready to be done done, but we also know

210
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 1: we're all going to need to get jobs after this,

211
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: So how about we wrapp by the end of December

212
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: so we can have the next pilot season free. And

213
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: then it was like it was like summer camp, because

214
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: you're never going to book a show between July and December,

215
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: at least in the traditional network world. And so we

216
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 1: were like, wait, we get to go do thirteen more

217
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: episodes and dink around with our friends and then like,

218
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: I guess we all start auditioning again. Oh my god,

219
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: what a time. But I like that we had that foresight.

220
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's good.

221
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 3: I had never seen and we'll get into the we're

222
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 3: going to talk about this on the episode recap as well.

223
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,079
Speaker 3: But I had never seen your guys of stuff from

224
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: season six. I had only I knew of it from

225
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 3: listening to the podcast before I joined. So it was

226
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 3: so fun. And the flashback montage, yeah, of Julian and Brooke.

227
00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 3: It was so cool because like Austin, I knew your

228
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 3: hair got cut too high on the back when you

229
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 3: got there, and so as I was watching, I was like, Oh,

230
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 3: there is the actual haircut he was talking about, and like,

231
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 3: here's the edge you're Julian, And it was it was

232
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 3: so fun to watch.

233
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 4: That yeah, I agree. That montage made me emotional because

234
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 4: you see all these iconic moments, like the one that

235
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 4: that it gets me is when. So if you help me,

236
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 4: remember it was that outside the USO concert when I

237
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 4: first got there. No, no, when was this? It was

238
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 4: when you said I'm finally ready to let someone in.

239
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,680
Speaker 1: I think that's when. Isn't that when Brooke goes to

240
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: see Julian on his movie set.

241
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 4: That sounds right because it's all lit and it looks.

242
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: Like, Yeah, it looks that's what it is.

243
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:57,359
Speaker 4: That's my favorite moments me too.

244
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: Catching up, somebody wants to know what does a day

245
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 1: in the life of Austin look like? And if I may,

246
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: I kind of want to add to that because you

247
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 1: have just completed this movie that you have been working

248
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 1: on for so long that you're so excited about, and

249
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: I know you're about to open a film festival in

250
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 1: Dallas with the Salamander King, So I I want you

251
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: to talk to the fans about what a day in

252
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: the life of making this movie has looked like for you.

253
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Okay, yes, I'm so excited and proud

254
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 4: it's finally finished and we're going to Dallas at the

255
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,960
Speaker 4: end of April. It's so good to like finish something

256
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 4: and you know, see it all the way through from

257
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 4: beginning to end. But you know, there was three years

258
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 4: of just talking and sending people a pitch or a

259
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 4: script or just get a phone call her a zoom,

260
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 4: and nothing happens. And about a year and a half ago,

261
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 4: I guess, Jennifer, my producer, came on, Jennifer Kuchai and

262
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 4: she that was the moment where the ball started rolling,

263
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 4: and so thankful to her. And we raised the money

264
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 4: pretty quickly for a small indie, and we shot it

265
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 4: in Austin in last June, and post took me all

266
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 4: the way to I guess about a month ago when

267
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 4: I finished the sound mix and we're in a festival

268
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 4: and like that feels it's a year sounds or just

269
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 4: under a year sounds slow, but it was fast. Like

270
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 4: I can't believe we're already done, and you know, in

271
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 4: a festival and now we're looking to you know, go

272
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 4: sell it to buyers, and I you know, I'm kind

273
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 4: of rambling here, but I just I've never felt this

274
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 4: feeling of sort of pride in completing something and just

275
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 4: starting and completing something that feels just so hard. It's

276
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 4: like the Sissifian task of rolling, you know, the boulder

277
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 4: up the mountain and yes, man, and then I just

278
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 4: can't wait to do it again.

279
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: I just can't wait, oh, buddy.

280
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 3: And so often what we do is that we're either

281
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 3: joining something halfway in or we're just doing the starting

282
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 3: stuff and then handing off to someone else. So it's

283
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 3: so cool that, I mean, you saw this thing through

284
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 3: from inception to premiere, Like, that's awesome. That is a

285
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: huge accomplishment. Man, you should be proud of yourself.

286
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 4: I'm so happy. And had so many great people. By

287
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 4: the way, Peter Kowalski was my DP, oh lucky, our

288
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 4: DP on One Tree Hill. For some of you may

289
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 4: not know his name, but he was such an important

290
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 4: part of One Tree Hill. And I was so lucky

291
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 4: to have such a crack team because Peter was working

292
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 4: on a TV show in Austin and I went and

293
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 4: directed that and then I got all that crew to

294
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 4: come and they'd been working together for four years. So

295
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 4: I just had this team that was just so dialed

296
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 4: into each other. Yeah, that was that was part of

297
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 4: why you ran so smoothly. We didn't have problems. Every

298
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 4: day was everyone just laughing and having fun. And I

299
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 4: never thought I would my first movie would be a comedy.

300
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 4: Never I'm going to make some dark, indie, crazy.

301
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: Darling deep bartsy thing.

302
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 4: And the first thing I makes a comedy, and I

303
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: just want to keep making comedies now. It was just

304
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 4: so fun and it's funny the way life happens to

305
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 4: you in that way, and you something you didn't expect

306
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 4: becomes maybe your next you know path. But to get

307
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 4: Leaven a little bit more specific about.

308
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: Like my day, I mean, yeah, what does a day

309
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: look like as a director?

310
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 3: Love?

311
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 4: I love to I wake up early. I love to

312
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 4: have some coffee. Sometimes I'll go to the coffee shop

313
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 4: on South Congress and have a little social time with

314
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 4: some local Austin coffee stop. Not the I call myself

315
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 4: a coffee slut, but these local coffee connoisseurs. There's this

316
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 4: little group and we gather and drink and talk in

317
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 4: the morning early and then I go home. And I

318
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 4: don't do this every day, but I like to exercise

319
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 4: in the morning if I can, and then I get

320
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 4: into writing and I'll sit down and I'll write for

321
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 4: a while. And then writing is weird because the schedule,

322
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 4: like everyone's writing habits are different. I like to write

323
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 4: in the morning, get some done, and I like to

324
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 4: move and walk or do something, take a break, have lunch,

325
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 4: get out, get away from it, and then come back

326
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 4: to it later, whether that's in the afternoon or at night,

327
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 4: and that helps. I don't know, there's something about like

328
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 4: flow state, and like, I don't know how it all works,

329
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 4: but getting the blood pumping and stepping away and then

330
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 4: coming back is really helpful. If I can't write all day,

331
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 4: it just for sure crazy.

332
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, that totally tracks. I was talking through something with

333
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: my therapist about just like, you know, when what are

334
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: tools for resilience when time is so jammed like March

335
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 1: For whatever reason, I felt like I was working twenty

336
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 1: four hours a day, just like meeting to meeting to

337
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,439
Speaker 1: meeting to meeting, and it was making me feel nuts.

338
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: And he was like, I'm telling you, I want you

339
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: to start setting thirty minute timers and if you have

340
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: to be on a zoom or in a thing for

341
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: an hour, set a timer for an hour and then

342
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: just go on a walk for five minutes and then

343
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: you can come back. And I started just trying to

344
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: reclaim minutes in certain spaces and like, I feel you

345
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: when you say that helps your flow state. It felt

346
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,719
Speaker 1: like it brought me back down to earth, Like I

347
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 1: was so high strung from the stress and then it

348
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 1: like just five minutes here and there and I got

349
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: right back into my body and was like whoa.

350
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 4: Yeah. And the one thing I also discovered by accident

351
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 4: was the little coffee group friend thing in the morning,

352
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 4: saytates my community societal thing, and I don't have FOMO

353
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 4: the rest of the day. M So if I can

354
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 4: be social talk to some people for a little while,

355
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 4: then I can go focus and I'm not like wondering

356
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 4: what everyone else is doing.

357
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 3: That's brains out, like let's check let's check Instagram for

358
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 3: a false sense of community.

359
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

360
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 3: Well it's funny. It's like I remember someone just saying,

361
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 3: like go touch grass, and it was that same thing

362
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 3: where it's like just go outside, yeah, get away from screens,

363
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 3: go out, take your shoes and socks off, walk around

364
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 3: in the lawn for a little bit, and it's like

365
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 3: it's the truth. Though. Man, it is such a good reset,

366
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 3: all right, So another question here, says uh. Sophia said

367
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 3: she rewrote her wedding vows herself. Did you rewrite or

368
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 3: punch up Julian's.

369
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: I did come on Austin's laughing because mine were trash

370
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: like what we saw in the script. We both were like,

371
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 1: you gotta be kidding. Made Brook Davis wait eight seasons

372
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 1: for this and the fans are so amped and like

373
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: we're doing call and repeat with like the traditional vows.

374
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: Everybody does know, and so I had to and I

375
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 1: had to open with a joke because it felt right

376
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 1: for her.

377
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 4: Well, I thought you did a great job, but it

378
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 4: was it was really well well done, and glad you

379
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 4: fought for that, you know, I think, you know, I don't.

380
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 4: There's no there's no blame or throwing any into the

381
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 4: throwing anybody under the bus. But we thought that maybe

382
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 4: the church was weird, the location was. We wanted to

383
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,919
Speaker 4: do something outside with lights and like trees and you know,

384
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 4: something a little more magical, you know, with you know

385
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 4: how it is with shooting, like it's expensive and locations

386
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 4: and money, and you get to season eight and people

387
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 4: are not as don't have the energy they had and

388
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 4: like that happens, and you know, that was my one

389
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 4: thing was really the location. Yeah, kind I kind of

390
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 4: wanted something a little more magical. I guess I.

391
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,719
Speaker 1: Think we wanted it to feel like that scene you

392
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: brought up from the montage, like when Brooke and Julian

393
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 1: meet on that soundstage and it looks like they're in

394
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,479
Speaker 1: the park and then all the lights go on, Like

395
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 1: we wanted that for the wedding, and then we got,

396
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: you know, no shade, but like we got brown wood walls,

397
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: and we were like, oh, no.

398
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 3: Liking shade. It's fair because also before you lost the company,

399
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 3: Before Brook lost the company, you guys were at this

400
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 3: stupidly palatial estate with like a never ending fucking go

401
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,199
Speaker 3: what do you call that? A garden maze? So it

402
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,360
Speaker 3: is a little weird that you guys went from that

403
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 3: to being like a church.

404
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 4: No, they would have spent some money. Brooke wants the

405
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 4: dreamy wedding. And you know, I will say this because

406
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,360
Speaker 4: I was watching it going and watching it knowing that

407
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 4: and how we felt about it then, and I was

408
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 4: going to watch it with fresh eyes and go, how

409
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 4: does it play now? And truthfully it bothered me a little,

410
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 4: but what was happening cut through it well enough. The

411
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 4: emotion cut through well enough that I went, that's what's important,

412
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 4: and that's what I'm in an audience is hopefully connecting

413
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 4: to and not the location. So watching it with fresh eyes,

414
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 4: I was I was happy to see that, Like, there

415
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 4: was emotion and there was something meaningful there and that

416
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 4: was what took center stage over the beauty.

417
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 3: And having because I didn't know you guys had an

418
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 3: issue with that. So I was truly watching this with

419
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 3: fresh eyes. I didn't bump at all.

420
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: Good, Yeah, that's good.

421
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 3: You guys did a great job. I wasn't paying, to

422
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 3: be honest with you, I maybe noticed the church and

423
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 3: the master, and then after that I was I was

424
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 3: along for the rider. Yeah.

425
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 1: Well, and something else that I think helps. I mean,

426
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: first of all, you and I collaborating creatively on the

427
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: language I thought was so important because there's you know,

428
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: things that you say that Julian says that Brooke then echoes,

429
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: and the kind of call and response to two people

430
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: who've been through a lot together who are on this

431
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: sort of shared road. Now. I liked that we personalized

432
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: it and didn't just do the repeat after me. I Brooke,

433
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 1: take you Julian like womp womp, and the other thing

434
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 1: that played so well about it for me, given that

435
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 1: we didn't get to do the sort of exterior nighttime,

436
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: beautifully lit you know, fairy tale thing was the montage

437
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: that you referenced, because the whole walk down the aisle

438
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: to marry me, you actually get to see all those things.

439
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: You see us on the scooter and with the lights,

440
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: and you know all the adventures these two have had together.

441
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 1: So the room just kind of being a box still

442
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: felt bigger because they used that device, and I thought

443
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: it was really smart.

444
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, yeah.

445
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 3: I think if if had all of those things that

446
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 3: worked as well as they did, there would have been

447
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 3: and more room to pay attention to the setting. But

448
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 3: like I said, I didn't notice it.

449
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 4: There was so much emotion in this episode, like with

450
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 4: with you and Joy yeah, Brooke and Haley with Victoria, yeah,

451
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 4: Jamie in the beginning is so cute, and then some

452
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 4: one knocks it out of the park in this episode,

453
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 4: like he wanted funny and so good in this episode.

454
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,439
Speaker 4: It made me giggle watching it now so funny.

455
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna cherry pick a little bit here. I

456
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 3: like this one. This is a little uh kind of

457
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 3: go back in time perhaps, who do you wish Julian

458
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 3: would have picked as his best man. This is assuming

459
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 3: I guess let's just say Jamie's not available. It's not

460
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 3: that you don't like Jamie, but let's say he was

461
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 3: unavailable that day.

462
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 4: Yet a prior. Yeah, great question. You know, the whole

463
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,399
Speaker 4: thing was weird to me because this joke of like

464
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 4: Julian not having guy friends was which was funny and

465
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 4: it worked. I'm trying to think back to like, was

466
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 4: there ever anybody that Julian got close with?

467
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 5: There was a guy?

468
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 3: I wish that you and I would have had more stuff,

469
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 3: because yes, we were the two quirky, kind of offbeat guys,

470
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 3: and I just feel like I could have had such

471
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 3: a cool, fun nerdy bro thing.

472
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 4: Yes, I pick you, Hey, yes, hold on, hold on,

473
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 4: hold on, Clay. Yeah, I know we haven't talked in

474
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 4: a while, but like back, you know, I always liked

475
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 4: you and I thought we had, you know, like a

476
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 4: great connection, and it's happening. I I don't know, I

477
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 4: just feel like we're kind of on the same page

478
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 4: with a lot of things, and I really, I really

479
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 4: would you consider being my best.

480
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 3: Yes, I'll marry you. Oh oh your best man? Yeah? Yeah,

481
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 3: I'd love to be your best man totally.

482
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 5: That's what.

483
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, a thousand times. Yes, this is gonna

484
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 3: This is great because I've written so much fan fiction

485
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 3: about this that now it finally is going to pay off.

486
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: I love it. Okay, wait, if we're going to cherry

487
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: pick something, cherry pick Wait. This is a really fun

488
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,159
Speaker 1: one because it jumps around in our shows and I

489
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: like this alternate reality stuff. Who would you take? I

490
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: think it needs to be a character. Who would you

491
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 1: take from One Tree Hill into The Walking Dead? And why?

492
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 5: Oh my god?

493
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 4: Well, you know, actually it's funny because like Hillary went on, Yeah,

494
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 4: Floris was on, there were some other people that were

495
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 4: on one Trio that were in The Walking Dead too

496
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 4: lead to.

497
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 3: The Walking Dead. Yeah that's awesome.

498
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, who would I take from one trio? Well? Okay,

499
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 4: so I would answer it as like a survival ant,

500
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 4: like who who would be the most like hmm my

501
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 4: gut reaction is James Lafford. It is Nathan because he's

502
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 4: an athlete and he's strong, and he's big, and he's

503
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 4: he's lead. He's a leader. He's humble. People will follow him,

504
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 4: not like greedy and power corrupt Nathan is such an

505
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,679
Speaker 4: honorable man. He would be such a great leader in

506
00:25:58,720 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 4: the zombie Apocalypse.

507
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 3: I feel like, yeah, my knee jerk was Dan, But

508
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 3: then I immediately shot that down because Dan would stab

509
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 3: you in the back of.

510
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 4: The well, and that in that world would probably be

511
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 4: really good for a while until hes you in the back.

512
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: Till he ruins your life. Okay, and this is a

513
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: related question. Another person asked, do you think Julian would

514
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: have lasted longer than Spencer in The Walking Dead?

515
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 4: Well, it's so funny because both of these characters were not,

516
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 4: uh what, neither of them would do well in the

517
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 4: Zombie Apocalypse. So I would have to say it's a

518
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,880
Speaker 4: it's a tie, like they both would do equally horrible.

519
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 3: I love it.

520
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 4: Julian be like, case, should we have a play? Can

521
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 4: we stage a play?

522
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 1: People need to be entertained, you know, we should? We

523
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: should entertain them?

524
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 5: Yeah?

525
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 3: What or your thoughts on the whole high five gate

526
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 3: with Julian?

527
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 4: Okay, I may have said this before, and forgive me

528
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 4: if I'm being repetitive, but it's one of those things

529
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 4: that you hate in the moment and you feel like

530
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 4: you're such an idiot and you feel like you're being

531
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 4: taken advantage of and you're being made fun of. Then

532
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 4: you find out years later that it's one of the

533
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 4: most remembered moments that fans love and they ask for

534
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:32,439
Speaker 4: a high five in person. It's still kind of embarrassing

535
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 4: when it happens, but it's also sweet that people remember

536
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 4: something and it makes them laugh. Yeah, so I was.

537
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 4: I've always been. It's always been a tug of war

538
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 4: of like, god, that was so dumb, but oh my god,

539
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 4: it's like it caught on. And sometimes I say this

540
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 4: a lot. I've said this when I'm directing now, when

541
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 4: I say to actors when they'd feel weird about something,

542
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 4: I go, sometimes the cheesiest stupid stuff is the is

543
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:58,479
Speaker 4: the best stuff.

544
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: Well, this came up recently. I'm trying to think Rob,

545
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: you might remember who was on with us.

546
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 3: Was it?

547
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,479
Speaker 1: I can't remember if it was Steven or someone. Somebody

548
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 1: had joined us for an episode and we were talking

549
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: about some of that like embarrassing whatever that they gave

550
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: to Julian, and whoever was with us was like, yeah, man,

551
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 1: this idea that they wanted to, you know, emasculate the

552
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: swaggy movie director from La backfired so hard because Austin

553
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: is so frickin likable and so charming and committed with

554
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: his whole chest. So he doesn't look silly, he looks

555
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 1: fucking adorable.

556
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 3: That's me. Yeah, it was just me. Every time we talked, Yeah,

557
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 3: every time we talk about you, buddy, I always said,

558
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 3: I'm like, to me, it's it is the best thing

559
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 3: because it was. Listen, I agree. I think everything you

560
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 3: felt in the moment to me is accurate. Like you

561
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 3: were kind of being taken advantage of. You were definitely

562
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 3: being made fun of. It was an attempt to masculate you,

563
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 3: but because you played it so earnestly and you leaned in,

564
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 3: it completely backfired. And the thing that's funny is had

565
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 3: they given you cool guy leading man lines, I still

566
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 3: do not think Julian would have ended up as lovable

567
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 3: as he did from you turning their crap into gold.

568
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 4: Thank you. That's I mean, I don't even know what

569
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 4: to say.

570
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 3: That's so it's just a testament to like how likable

571
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 3: you are. Like I say this all the time, Like

572
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 3: you are infinitely likable as Julian, thank you, And so

573
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 3: it's so funny to me, that's like all of these attempts,

574
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 3: I'm like, Wow, what what you were hoping to undermined?

575
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 3: You inadvertently built up?

576
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

577
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 5: Wow.

578
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: And the willingness to commit to a story like no

579
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: matter where it's going to go is it's kind of

580
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 1: our job. But I think, especially as young actors, it

581
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: can be hard. You don't want to feel stupid, you

582
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: don't want to you don't necessarily want to be the

583
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 1: butt of a joke. And then I think you get

584
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: older and you're like, oh my god, it's the best

585
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: thing to be the joke in the scene. Yeah, but yeah,

586
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: watching it back, we are always just like, God, he's

587
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: so charming. It doesn't matter what you It doesn't matter

588
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 1: what you do or what they gave you. Like, you

589
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 1: just crushed it.

590
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 4: Man.

591
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: So anytime you're having a bad day, you just FaceTime

592
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: me and Rob and we will tell you you're perfect.

593
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 3: I worked with this director one time, and I remember

594
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 3: there was some issues with the script or something, and

595
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 3: she said to me, she went, I'll get my revenge.

596
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 3: I'll shoot their script. And I love that, And to me,

597
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 3: that's kind of like what you did. You were like, Okay,

598
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 3: I'm actually not going to try to make this cool

599
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 3: at all. I'm going to do it exactly as written

600
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 3: and how to turn out, it was not emasculating. It

601
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 3: was wildly endearing.

602
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 4: That's interesting.

603
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, it was great. Okay. I actually think this

604
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: transitions into this next question really well, because you're obviously

605
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: reflecting on this character that you built. What do you

606
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: think you share with Julian? What similarities do you have

607
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: to that character?

608
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 5: You know?

609
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 4: I was actually I was doing a little jog this

610
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 4: morning and I was thinking about this while I was jogging.

611
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 4: This is kind of an answer, it's not exactly the answer.

612
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 4: But when I was a young actor, I wanted to

613
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 4: act and I wanted to play characters, and I wanted

614
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 4: to like change everything and we're wigs and just be

615
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 4: different and not be me and like always just transform.

616
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 4: That was what I thought was interesting. And I remember

617
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 4: when I got the call to do Montree Hill, I

618
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 4: had to get on a plane and go to Wilmington

619
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 4: so fast. I was like, there's no time to create

620
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 4: a character. And I remember saying to myself for the

621
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 4: first time, I said, I'm just gonna be myself and

622
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 4: this will be an experiment to see what happens and

623
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 4: lo and behold It was the first time that I

624
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 4: had an audience really connect with me. And I don't

625
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 4: know if that you know, really answers that question, but

626
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 4: it was such such a big lesson because I actors

627
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 4: want to act and they actually need we need directors,

628
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 4: we need other people to help us. Because sometimes the

629
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 4: difference between an actor who thinks they're doing something really good,

630
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 4: but then somebody steps in and says, all I need

631
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 4: you to do is just like not kind of be

632
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 4: so excited. And if you just if you just actually

633
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 4: just use your voice instead of like you're you're dropping

634
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 4: into this like voice, you know, if you just actually

635
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 4: just talk like you right now, I'm going.

636
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 3: To cry less, Batman more, Bruce Wayne, thank you, thank you.

637
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 4: Yeah. And I learned that on One Tree Hill. I

638
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 4: learned that playing Julian because I committed to just being

639
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 4: Austin in that role. And look, you know, the question

640
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 4: is what's similar. I mean, certainly there are things that

641
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 4: are different one hundred percent, but the overall the from

642
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 4: forty thousand feet it was like, I'm going to go

643
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 4: to work and speak from my heart every day.

644
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it comes across. I mean knowing you personally, I

645
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 3: think like isn't that what we do? I mean, I

646
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 3: don't know. Some people have like big old methods. I

647
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 3: bring a lot of rob to everything I do, like

648
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 3: where it's applicable one hundred percent.

649
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 4: And that's why you're so good and why people connect.

650
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 4: It's all about connection. Yeah, and when people I see

651
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 4: this so much now, when someone is trying trying to

652
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 4: do something, there immediately is a barrier between the audience

653
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 4: and them. And that's why you always it's so annoying

654
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 4: because I was always an actor who was trying to

655
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 4: do something and that director was always like less less less, No, no,

656
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 4: don't do that, less less less less less. Yeah, And

657
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 4: it took me so many years to understand what that

658
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 4: meant because nobody ever said the audience isn't going to

659
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 4: connect with you. No one ever said that, right, Yeah,

660
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 4: they just said, don't do that.

661
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 5: Do us.

662
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 3: That's a great Josh Brolin story where I guess he

663
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 3: was a big like process actor when he was doing

664
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 3: Goonies when he was very y saw this and I

665
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 3: guess he was like taught like it was when they

666
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 3: were like going through a cave, and I guess he

667
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 3: went up to is it, George?

668
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 4: Was it Spielberg.

669
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 3: Yeah. He went to Spielberg and was like, so is

670
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 3: the cave, like, is it like a metaphor for like,

671
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 3: am are we coming out of the womb? And Spielberg

672
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,399
Speaker 3: is basically like, how about you're a kid walking through

673
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,320
Speaker 3: a tunnel and say you're line and say your line?

674
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, So genius a perfect example.

675
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: Perfect, It is a perfect example. And I have to

676
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 1: and this is perfect because we are talking about movie making.

677
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: I have to tell you we got great questions from

678
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 1: the fans for you and I were barely scratching the surface.

679
00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 1: But one of the questions we got the most, the

680
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 1: most was that they are so desperate for details on

681
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 1: an early filmic project of yours, Holiday in the Sun.

682
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: They want to know what it was like working with

683
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 1: the Olsen twins, and more than twenty people asked if

684
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 1: you were nervous to kiss Ashley and I feel like

685
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: we've got to give the fans what they.

686
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:23,879
Speaker 4: Want, you know, happy to I learned pretty quickly when

687
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 4: I was in One Tree Hill that there was a

688
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 4: similar audience from those movies yeah Nashally movies to One

689
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 4: Tree Hill, and there was a lot of overlap there.

690
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 4: So people say stuff a lot I was definitely nervous

691
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 4: because Mary Kate was fifteen and I was I think

692
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 4: eighteen or nineteen or maybe even twenty, I don't remember.

693
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 4: But I was old and it felt weird and it

694
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 4: felt wrong, and you know, I looked very young. So

695
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 4: watching the movie, I don't think you noticed. I'm real

696
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 4: tall and skinny and like nerdy, but I don't think

697
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,399
Speaker 4: you can tell there's a big age difference. But from

698
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 4: my brain, I was like, she's fifteen, this is not

699
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 4: this is weird. So I remember talking to you producers,

700
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,720
Speaker 4: and I remember talking to even her dad was there,

701
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 4: and I just wanted everybody to like. I was like,

702
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 4: is this okay with you guys? Like, and they were

703
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 4: all like, oh, don't worry about it. Nobody was, you know,

704
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 4: nobody seemed concerned, and I was very concerned. But it

705
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 4: turned out fine. It was all very g rated.

706
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I think that really speaks to your character though,

707
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,839
Speaker 1: because listen, they'd been acting since they were little. It's

708
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 1: not like a fifteen year old girl was going to

709
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 1: have her first kiss ever, you know, with a guy

710
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 1: five years older than her. But the fact that as

711
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,319
Speaker 1: the older actor in the room, you were like, hey,

712
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 1: how are we going to address this, because yes, this

713
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: is our job, but also we got to acknowledge what's

714
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 1: happening here.

715
00:36:58,480 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 4: I and I they're children.

716
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I really just like I respect that.

717
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 4: About you so much, Thank you, thank you. It was

718
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 4: in a way, it's one of those things. It's similar

719
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 4: to the high five moment where when you're young and

720
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 4: you're trying to make your career as an actor and

721
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,919
Speaker 4: do all these cool projects and you have this one

722
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 4: that you feel is maybe a little silly, And I

723
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 4: had to give that up years ago because people love it.

724
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 4: And I had to put away my crap and my

725
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 4: all my junk in my head and go, people like

726
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 4: this thing, And why am I being a jerk about it?

727
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 4: Like it's only it's only paid me back a million

728
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 4: times with love. Like So that's another lesson I've learned from,

729
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 4: you know, doing what we do is you know, sometimes

730
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,760
Speaker 4: it's the same thing. Sometimes those things that you don't

731
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 4: think maybe aren't like super cool or hip, a lot

732
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 4: of people love them.

733
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,719
Speaker 1: Yeah I love that.

734
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, well you heard it from Austin Nichols. Sometimes the

735
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 3: cheesy stuff is the best stuff, that's right, Austin, You're

736
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 3: one of my favorite people I don't get to see regularly,

737
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 3: So thank you for making the time.

738

742
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:25,400
