Thank you. 173 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: But you've done some other other holidays, so many. 174 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 3: So many. 175 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: I think the one is the one before that, Shirley maclan. 176 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: That's the one Christmas from twenty sixteen. 177 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: Christmas twenty sixteen, right, and the fantastic Eric McCormack is 178 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: my love interest in that one. I mean, I get 179 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 2: some good guys in these Christmas movies. 180 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: I gotta say, you really walked out. 181 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 3: I mean, it's pretty good. 182 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: I was thinking the other day I should try to 183 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 2: do another Christmas movie in my future, because it's been 184 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 2: pretty good for me. In this one, Shirley McClain is 185 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: a ghost and my character dies. I slip on the ice. Yes, 186 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 2: I'm a career woman. This is a theme it's gonna 187 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: come back. It's interesting. I don't know why I'm drawn 188 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: to these things what I am so I slip on 189 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 2: the ice. I'm a super career woman. I don't have 190 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 2: a relationship or anything. I think that's what I remember. 191 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 2: And I'm walking in my career suits and I slip 192 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 2: on the ice and hit my head and I die. 193 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: Theoretically I die, I guess, or I partially die or whatever. 194 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: I go to heaven and I see Shirley McLain and 195 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 2: I have a cat in heaven. 196 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 3: I don't know why I have a cat in heaven, 197 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 3: but I have a cat that I remember. 198 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 2: I remember this day really well. Filming with Shirley and 199 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 2: a cat. It was a lot to handle. I had 200 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: to hold the cat. Cats don't always do what you want, 201 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 2: even though they're trained. 202 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 3: This was a very. 203 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 2: Wonderful cat, though, and we did great together. And I 204 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 2: remember Shirley was like skeptical that the cat was going 205 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: to do what the cat was supposed to do. And 206 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 2: of course you're really just so odd that you're actually 207 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: just acting with Shirley McLain that it's like hard to 208 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: even focus, you know. And she was incredible and fascinating 209 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 2: We spent many weeks together in Vancouver, and she was 210 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 2: just a joy so much. 211 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 3: We flew together. 212 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 2: You know, she was older at this point, but like 213 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 2: such a trooper. They got her up on this fire 214 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 2: escape at one point in this movie, and I was 215 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: so nervous. I was like, you guys, please get Shirley 216 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 2: down off the fire's cape. And we were on the 217 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 2: beach at one point and the storm was coming and 218 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 2: the wind is just blowing, and she's basically she's trying 219 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: to say to me, my character that I haven't, you know, 220 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 2: paid attention to the important things in life, like love. 221 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 2: And then Eric's character is back on Earth, and oh, 222 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 2: it's possible that I get a chance to go back 223 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 2: to Earth, and if I don't go blow it, I 224 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 2: get to stay on Earth. I think, though I'm not 225 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 2: sure because it's very similar to another Christmas movie. 226 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 3: I did that we will get to in a second. 227 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 2: They're very similar, and I just love those type stories. 228 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 2: I'm one of those people where if I'm looking at Instagram, 229 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys get this on Instagram, 230 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: but I have this a a page I guess where 231 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 2: people who died briefly talk about their experience. 232 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 3: Do you get this? 233 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: I have not seen it. 234 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 3: No, have you gotten this? Hebby, Okay, it exists. It's 235 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 3: really good. 236 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 2: And they talk about what their experience was when they died, 237 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 2: and it's fascinating, fascinating. I'm just very fascinated by this. 238 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: So I do believe that there is some kind of 239 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 2: an afterlife. I don't think that it's necessarily textbook Christianity, 240 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: but I do believe that there is an afterlife. And 241 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: I think it's super interesting to think about briefly passing 242 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: over to the other side and then coming back. 243 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 3: I think it's very interesting. Oh yeah, yeah. 244 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 2: So sometimes they offer me movies about this, and I 245 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 2: almost always say yes. So in that movie, Sherley McClain 246 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 2: is my guide. 247 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 3: Which is incredible. Yeah. 248 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 2: And she was amazing and I asked her a lot 249 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 2: of questions and she was just funny and a little 250 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 2: bit intense and you know, really fascinating in always and 251 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 2: I was really lucky to get to work with her. 252 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 2: And Eric was also incredible. And Eric was like I 253 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 2: had known Eric a long time. I had been on 254 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 2: Will and Grace, but I did not know Eric as 255 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: a leading man, and he was like, wow, surprising. 256 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 1: Season seven, episode seven.
