Speaker 1: with the kids, had a couple of families and we
Speaker 1: were playing in the park and it was kind of
Speaker 1: hectic and thereon I couldn't get the thing correctly the
Speaker 1: time zone. Yes. Oh we're happy you made it, made
Speaker 1: it happen today, Thank you, Yes, thank no problem. So
Speaker 1: good to see you. We've we've been watching the show
Speaker 1: back from the very beginning, can you imagine. Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 1: So we are we are on season four now. Currently.
Speaker 1: We want to jump back. We want to jump back
Speaker 1: to what Stewart, what's all things Stewart? You were in
Speaker 1: the beginning of season four, right, I was in actually
Speaker 1: two roles in nine two and I played the bellhop
Speaker 1: I think in the second season, or it might have
Speaker 1: been the first season. I played the bellhop in Palm Springs,
Speaker 1: I believe. Do you remember his name, David Gale? No,
Speaker 1: I don't remember. It was Tom. Okay, okay, I figure
Speaker 1: I didn't know either. I just read it from the producers.
Speaker 1: But that was really that was incredibly surprising to me.
Speaker 1: You know, when he asked, when Aaron asked me back
Speaker 1: to be on the show, it's a different character. I
Speaker 1: was like, how is that possible? So and such a bigger,
Speaker 1: bigger role. Yeah, yeah, it was. It was really interesting. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: wait wait we like this stuff. When this happened, so
Speaker 1: talk us through it. So you auditioned for Tom. Just
Speaker 1: what happened was I was new. I just got into
Speaker 1: La tell us about that less than a year, I think,
Speaker 1: and he had had a reading for I had an
Speaker 1: initial reading with I forget with with who, but he
Speaker 1: you know, they thought that I would be, you know,
Speaker 1: a good addition, maybe possibly as a recurring role right away.
Speaker 1: But I was green, you know. So I went in
Speaker 1: there and I wanted to the big room in spelling
Speaker 1: entertainment that had all the seats. It looked like a theater.
Speaker 1: And I remember I was so nervous. It was nerve wracking.
Speaker 1: And you know, they listened to it and my agent asked,
Speaker 1: you know, how did it go? Harry Gold? And I
Speaker 1: was with Harry Gold who wasn't with Harry Goldry I
Speaker 1: was with Harry Gold too, all of us. So anyway, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know the word was you know, you
Speaker 1: didn't get it. You know, you know how it goes. Uh,
Speaker 1: you didn't get it, but they really liked you, so
Speaker 1: they're going to give you a smaller role. So wait, wait, wait,
Speaker 1: do you know what role you were trying out for.
Speaker 1: I don't remember what the role was. I don't remember
Speaker 1: who got it. I was. I was just trying to
Speaker 1: hit all my auditions and I just kept moving, you know, so, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I forget the role. Actually, brand I know I was
Speaker 1: going to say that, no, no, it was no, it
Speaker 1: wasn't a series regular those are already established. Um, it
Speaker 1: was a new recurring role. So but it was substantial,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I was kind of bummed but
Speaker 1: happy I got Yeah, And then he brought me back
Speaker 1: later after i'd done. I think Robins hoods um up
Speaker 1: at Vancouver and I was like, yeah, okay, you want
Speaker 1: to bring me back for you know, so I auditioned
Speaker 1: and Scott it. So that was a that was a big,
Speaker 1: big role in a big effect, had a big effect
Speaker 1: of my life, you know, personally, because you know, the
Speaker 1: show was so popular and it's still popular in a
Speaker 1: lot of places. And in Europe, you know, they still remember.
Speaker 1: They're like, oh my god, that's right, and it's just crazy,
Speaker 1: it's just insane. You know. I didn't recognized as Stuart,
Speaker 1: not all the time. But yeah, you know you have
Speaker 1: those people, and you know, Kelly, you have these people that, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, they have an eye for faces. You can,
Speaker 1: I don't care what you're wearing. They just go David
Speaker 1: Gail and they list your resume and that's it's amazing.
Speaker 1: But you know, and then you have every variation of that.
Speaker 1: But but yeah, yeah, during that time, you probably really
Speaker 1: got recognized. As soon as those media episodes with Stewart
Speaker 1: and Brenda Er. You were Brenda's man. I mean everybody
Speaker 1: Hue I was in it. I was in uh, I'd
Speaker 1: take my first trip to Europe. I was over in Greece.
Speaker 1: Everywhere I went, it was like it was just InCred
Speaker 1: Like I said, it changed my life so much because
Speaker 1: it affected me so much personally, and uh yeah, everywhere
Speaker 1: I went there was, you know, just a mob of
Speaker 1: people around me. You know, as soon as one person
Speaker 1: recognized me, it was it was it was just like
Speaker 1: you know, dominoes. It was. Yeah. I remember being on
Speaker 1: a boat coming from Greece to Italy and I was
Speaker 1: on the top deck and my girlfriend was down in
Speaker 1: the room and I had had the sense of one
Speaker 1: down to tell her that I couldn't make it down
Speaker 1: because I was surrounded on the top deck of this
Speaker 1: huge ship by like a hundred you know, fans, and
Speaker 1: it was really, it's really it's She was like, oh, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: he always gives that excuse what's he doing? It's just yeah, right,
Speaker 1: what's you really up to? Yeah? So yeah, but it's
Speaker 1: just you know, I described it, you know, this whole
Speaker 1: thing from the moment I started booking roles on television.
Speaker 1: You know, it's like if someone lifted your feet off
Speaker 1: the ground, you can't really touch the earth the same way.
Speaker 1: You know, you walk into any place or any restaurant,
Speaker 1: any place and someone knows you. It's just not normal,
Speaker 1: you know, so wow, feet off the ground can't take
Speaker 1: Jen and I have been searching for the reason for
Speaker 1: thirty three years. My life has just been somewhere not normal.
Speaker 1: It's the it's your feet, it's your fink gen. Yes,
Speaker 1: they don't hunker down some work boots and then we
Speaker 1: could just go on just normal people. Uh. It's so true, though,
Speaker 1: I mean, fame is um. No one really tells you
Speaker 1: how to handle it right right right, how it's going
Speaker 1: to handle you and stay with you for your lifetime journey.
Speaker 1: I have a question, did anyone any hardcore Brenda Dylan
Speaker 1: fans want to fight you? No? No, they were like, okay,
Speaker 1: he took Brenda, that's fine. No, they were just happy
Speaker 1: to meet you. You know it is I feel like
Speaker 1: the Stewart was pretty well loved by people, even though Brenda.
Speaker 1: I think the Brenda Dylan thing was kind of over
Speaker 1: at that point because Kelly ruined it all. Uh before
Speaker 1: people were really embracing this new character until he kind
Speaker 1: of became you know, why did that happen? Were you
Speaker 1: told that was going to happen? So I had a
Speaker 1: conversation with by the way, Jen, Jen, you were like
Speaker 1: the nicest. I mean, Luke was very nice, but Jen
Speaker 1: was you were. You were so sweet and I remember
Speaker 1: that vividly, and I just wanted to tell you that.
Speaker 1: Um uh so what about me? That's funny. You look
Speaker 1: great too, kid. So what happened was, I, uh, I
Speaker 1: got a phone call from Aaron after we finished this series.
Speaker 1: After we I guess we were in Vegas and we didn't,
Speaker 1: you know, the marriage, and it just kind of or
Speaker 1: what it didn't happen. I get exactly how it happened.
Speaker 1: So what happened was, uh, he I got a phone
Speaker 1: call and from my agent said, Aaron wants to speak
Speaker 1: to you. He says, look, you know, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: you're liked by a lot of people, and we're getting
Speaker 1: too many emails and messages and and about where where
Speaker 1: what happened to Stewart and you know, and so we
Speaker 1: we we've decided to fix it. And I said, okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna bring you back. We're gonna make you an asshole.
Speaker 1: So that's when they set up the camping trip and
Speaker 1: I said, okay, so he goes, so really really play that.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna set up the camping trip and uh
Speaker 1: and in yours, she's gonna lock the keys in the
Speaker 1: car and you're just gonna flip and you're gonna carry
Speaker 1: that out all the way to to uh Palm Springs,
Speaker 1: I think it was. And uh, you know, she'll throw
Speaker 1: the keys of you. The keys will go in the pool,
Speaker 1: whatever it is. And oh, you'll you'll blame it all
Speaker 1: on you'll. You'll be late and you'll blame it all
Speaker 1: on her. You know, you'll, you'll. So this is so
Speaker 1: not Stewart though. Yeah, but they had to do and
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, Okay, so I really
Speaker 1: played that up. So I thought that was fun. You
Speaker 1: were good. Oh wait, okay, so you were also not
Speaker 1: We can come back to nine to twenty. Oh, but
Speaker 1: I have to jump into this what you were also
Speaker 1: on a soap called Port Charles, right, Yes, I was.
Speaker 1: I'm a big soap fan, so I get excited. Which
Speaker 1: when we talked about soaps, she loves her soaps. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: we we also have six degrees of David Gale. Jenny
Speaker 1: has one because my manager that I've been with for
Speaker 1: a million years, his son who I held in diapers,
Speaker 1: played your son on Port Charles. Do you remember Colton James.
Speaker 1: You remember Colton? I remember he's on a second Yes,
Speaker 1: I do remember Colton. I had a couple of sons.
Speaker 1: I had another series of dud I had a boy. Yes,
Speaker 1: Colton James, I do remember. How do you know him?
Speaker 1: He played your son? No, he was an actor, but
Speaker 1: now he's following his father's footsteps and he is a manager.
Speaker 1: He's one of my managers now. So yeah, he was
Speaker 1: a sweetheart. It was it was really but that was fun.
Speaker 1: That's difficult. He was sick a lot. He was in
Speaker 1: a hospital bed. Yeah that's right. Yeah, okay, you know
Speaker 1: that's funny. You were on quite a number of Port
Speaker 1: Charles episodes. One year, I had a three year con
Speaker 1: tracked and uh, one year is all it took to
Speaker 1: do two hundred and sixteen episodes. It's a two hundred
Speaker 1: and sixteen that's what that's our factor here, three or four?
Speaker 1: Doctor Joe Scanlon, No, it couldn't wait three. Yeah, maybe
Speaker 1: how many episodes? Two hundred and sixteen says on our report.
Speaker 1: That's a wild from nineteen ninety nine to two thousand.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's possible, but I mean I
Speaker 1: did They said you would be in a minimum like
Speaker 1: three episodes a week, but you know, sixty pages a day.
Speaker 1: It's like crazy, right, it's insane. I remember this one time.
Speaker 1: I hadn't done any preparation. This is an actor's nightmare.
Speaker 1: You know. You you tell me you're coming, you're it's
Speaker 1: a stage call, and you haven't memorized your lines. It's
Speaker 1: it's horrific and panic. Right. Yeah, So it was a
Speaker 1: night before and it's every day, you know, every day
Speaker 1: it's a new episode, and you know you have nine scenes.
Speaker 1: So I had They had nine scenes about three pages
Speaker 1: each each one, so about twenty seven and I had
Speaker 1: just I was just like spend. I don't know what
Speaker 1: was going on, but I put it off. I put
Speaker 1: it off. I couldn't believe it. I kind of read
Speaker 1: through it and I was so tired, so as I said, look,
Speaker 1: i'll just get up early and I wake up at
Speaker 1: five and I'll just start hammering this out. And I
Speaker 1: got to I got cornered basically on time, so I
Speaker 1: had to go in. So I basically read through about
Speaker 1: thirty pages of dialogue and just highlighted myself and just
Speaker 1: read it through like three times and didn't memorize. It
Speaker 1: just went off like what the emotion was, what was
Speaker 1: happening in the scene, And I just kind of offered
Speaker 1: it up to like maybe I'll remember this for some reason,
Speaker 1: like maybe I will. I have to. So it was
Speaker 1: high stress and I was trying to slide under it
Speaker 1: and just play, you know, calm myself down so that
Speaker 1: my brain could actually do this, and you know, I
Speaker 1: had a couple of hiccups, but it worked. I couldn't
Speaker 1: believe it, but wow, it Yeah, it was pounding story.
Speaker 1: I didn't know what it's going to happen. I think
Speaker 1: that's happened to everyone every after out there, where you
Speaker 1: you put it off, you don't do your memorization, and
Speaker 1: then you're all of a sudden on you're like, oh shit,
Speaker 1: yeah you're like that huge log. I thought that was
Speaker 1: the next day I had time. Oh it's right now. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it must be so much harder for the soaps with
Speaker 1: such a high number of page count. It was, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was. It was. I mean it's many times I
Speaker 1: get on the set and I'm like, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: give me, what did I call them? The mini sides?
Speaker 1: The mini sides? Don't we don't remember those anymore because
Speaker 1: they no longer worked with us because we need glasses. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we have the big sides now the full script page. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: well yeah, so how are you doing, Tori calling the
Speaker 1: que cards. I'm doing well. I you were wonderful to
Speaker 1: me also, you were. It's okay, David Gael, It's okay.
Speaker 1: You can like Jenny Butter. I'm just excited that this
Speaker 1: It rarely happens. She's let her have her movement. And
Speaker 1: your dad was so sweet to me. You really really was.
Speaker 1: I was kidding. I think, thank you. My dad loved you,
Speaker 1: and I mean, as you know my dad, when he
Speaker 1: loved somebody, he went on to use them as much
Speaker 1: as he could. I mean, he kept putting you in
Speaker 1: things too bad. The other two shows didn't right completely work.
Speaker 1: So first Robin Hoods Robin's Hoods, Robins uh, and then Savannah,
Speaker 1: which was really special to him. He loves Sava, right,
Speaker 1: I bet that was That was the WB's first one
Speaker 1: hour drummer. Yeah, yeah, he really, I was really, you know,
Speaker 1: more so afterward he was he was gone. I really realized,
Speaker 1: like god, I can't I can't believe if he did
Speaker 1: that for me, because when I was going through the
Speaker 1: you know, many auditions trying to get but I wasn't
Speaker 1: putting it together. I didn't realize because I wasn't. I
Speaker 1: was new to Hollywood, and people are saying, don't you
Speaker 1: know what's going on? I go, yeah, it's great, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm doing the work. He said, oh no, you don't understand.
Speaker 1: This man is actually doing everything he can to make
Speaker 1: you a star, to put him in all his shows.
Speaker 1: And he told me that, he goes, I'm going to
Speaker 1: make you a star, David, and he was so sweet.
Speaker 1: That's so sweet. When the last time I saw him
Speaker 1: was in the elevator at Spelling Entertainment and he was
Speaker 1: in I was coming out of charmed audition, which I
Speaker 1: did not yet, and I got into the elevator. He
Speaker 1: came in with two attorneys on the side, and he's
Speaker 1: he's all me, and he his face just lit up,
Speaker 1: and he gave me a big kiss, like he kissed me,
Speaker 1: and he hugged me like for the longest time, and
Speaker 1: he said, do you know he kissed on the lips? Right, yeah,
Speaker 1: he kissed me on the lips. He was a kisser.
Speaker 1: He kissed me all over. I loved it. Woman anyone.
Speaker 1: His lawyers were like, uh, mister Spelling, we have to go.
Speaker 1: He goes, hang on, I'm gonna tell you about this
Speaker 1: guy there, sir, we have to go. We have to
Speaker 1: go to this meeting. So he was very very sweet
Speaker 1: to me. I was very lucky, very lucky. You're you're
Speaker 1: living in France now, No, I'm in Florida. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're in Florida. Now, I'm in Florida. I moved back
Speaker 1: here with my son, and I'm making my way back
Speaker 1: to the Los Angeles probably within a year. So, oh good.
Speaker 1: And do you have hopes of going out for stuff again? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Getting back in there. Yeah, I would like to sure.
Speaker 1: So you know, I missed California. I miss you know,
Speaker 1: my career in the business. I know it's difficult, but
Speaker 1: you know I it's not intimidating to me in the
Speaker 1: sense that I, you know, I have something to offer,
Speaker 1: so yeah, whatever. Yeah, you're so talented and you have
Speaker 1: such a great look. Now you're just like a different
Speaker 1: kind of leading man, you know, Yeah, definitely different. It's
Speaker 1: so handsome. Oh thank you. Why the name Stuart, Where
Speaker 1: did that come from? That always confused me? To Stewie
Speaker 1: A good a good looking guy, has it all why Stewart?
Speaker 1: What a great what a great? Yeah. I just really
Speaker 1: enjoyed that character. You know, when Sonny, when I came
Speaker 1: to the set, I don't know if you remember, but
Speaker 1: like it was I felt, you know, I was kind
Speaker 1: of an outcast in the as a character right in
Speaker 1: the group, kind of an outcast in the right zeph
Speaker 1: Forth Shannon for a period um well brenda um. But
Speaker 1: I was also like when I came on set, I
Speaker 1: felt like that also a little bit. Not that everyone
Speaker 1: wasn't welcoming, they were, but but I just felt like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, these guys are already up and running,
Speaker 1: they're doing their own thing, and I'm just a guy
Speaker 1: coming in. And it was the first time I had
Speaker 1: a recurring role coming up into a you know, an
Speaker 1: established cast like that. So it was really a paralleled
Speaker 1: a lot of things. The character paralleled a lot of
Speaker 1: things that I was feeling just in general. But um, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was a great role. I mean there's so many
Speaker 1: aspects of it. You know, my father such an asshole,
Speaker 1: I forget what his name. He was always putting me down,
Speaker 1: and you know, him being rich, possibly dealing drugs, he
Speaker 1: was you know, there was a time. You remember Howard Fine, right,
Speaker 1: Howard Fine. Yeah, that was my acting coach. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: so Howard Fine. I coached with him on this and
Speaker 1: I said, he's got he's got me sane, Howard. You know,
Speaker 1: kisses with you or like potato chips, I can't eat
Speaker 1: just one. And I said, how can I say that?
Speaker 1: He goes, that's gold. You go deep into that and
Speaker 1: you say it with all the passion and you know,
Speaker 1: like you sell that, that's you don't run away from that.
Speaker 1: And that's when the role changed for me that I
Speaker 1: could get sappy, but I had to really like, you
Speaker 1: know it in one on one. But I was trying
Speaker 1: to change the lines and you know, and he was like, no,
Speaker 1: that's that's a beautiful line. You know. So that that
Speaker 1: was one of the moments where I really defined the character.
Speaker 1: It was like we always thought that Stewart and Brenda
Speaker 1: had really great chemistry. I remember watching those episodes and
Speaker 1: thinking that they made a good couple. Yeah. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: had a lot of fun. It was. It was really
Speaker 1: really fun. You know. I remember the first kiss we
Speaker 1: had on set. It was like it was and then
Speaker 1: kneeling down and proposing to and all those things. It
Speaker 1: was just kids. What was the kids like? The kiss
Speaker 1: was great, but I was so nervous, you know, I
Speaker 1: was you know, you get the cameras all around. The
Speaker 1: Chris was wonderful. But you know it was actually really nice.
Speaker 1: I do remember it. It was it was nice. It
Speaker 1: was you know, soft, it was gentle, it was Yeah.
Speaker 1: I wasn't removed from the moment. I was in the moment.
Speaker 1: So that's that's a good sun. You could tell. You
Speaker 1: could tell you guys were doing a great job at that.
Speaker 1: It was nice. Who was the first cast member? If
Speaker 1: you can remember that, you met walking onto set, walked
Speaker 1: on the set. It was in the valley, walked that
Speaker 1: big warehouse. Yea nice. Yeah, I remember they had the
Speaker 1: vivid warehouse next to us. The poor now yeah, actually
Speaker 1: but I walked in and all of the director's chairs
Speaker 1: were in a group, and all of you were sitting
Speaker 1: in a group. And Luke stood up on the foot
Speaker 1: footstool of this chair and he goes David Gail, and
Speaker 1: I said, yes, he goes, welcome to the show. And
Speaker 1: he jumped down and he said I'm Luke Perry. I
Speaker 1: go yeah, yeah, I know you are nice to meet you.
Speaker 1: So that was the first person I met. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: then I you know, I met everyone at that moment
Speaker 1: also right after. But yeah, I remember him doing that.
Speaker 1: He was good. He was a good uh what would
Speaker 1: you say, ambassador for the for the show. I guess,
Speaker 1: a good ambassador how to live a kind life. I
Speaker 1: can remember. I can see him doing that as you
Speaker 1: described that. Can't you just see Luke standing? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: he goes, yeah, welcome to the show. Is anyone not
Speaker 1: nice to you? No? Distance, No, I didn't talk much
Speaker 1: with Brian Austin Green where Brian um we we did,
Speaker 1: I mean in the beginning, and then later on we
Speaker 1: warmed like we got closer and I was in his
Speaker 1: like his uh his room there on set, and then
Speaker 1: we talked about a few things and and Ian I
Speaker 1: didn't I mean, Ian is ah right, he'd be proud
Speaker 1: of course, so I uh and I we we had
Speaker 1: some moments off and on. But you guys and then
Speaker 1: Luke and it were like the three that I maybe
Speaker 1: talked to the most. Shannon of course. But Shannon, see,
Speaker 1: the thing was that it was funny how like our
Speaker 1: onset um relationship developed as our as our characters developed,
Speaker 1: so like left first days where we hadn't established anything
Speaker 1: and we were shooting like just meeting or whatever it was.
Speaker 1: Um it was you know, she didn't really we didn't
Speaker 1: really talk about We just let that happen on sets.
Speaker 1: And I was kind of like, I was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: just don't push anything. Let's just let's just sit here
Speaker 1: and you know, work on your where being, you know,
Speaker 1: try to saying character and concentrate on your on your role.
Speaker 1: And uh so, uh no, I'm I had a lot
Speaker 1: of time with her, no, and a lot of the
Speaker 1: all of you on the set, but um, you know,
Speaker 1: I didn't really hang out much with anybody. So Luke
Speaker 1: I saw afterwards. I saw the different places I did
Speaker 1: a play. He came to that, were you married then? No,
Speaker 1: but I have a relationship, you had a girlfriend then
Speaker 1: we had no need for you. I'm just kidding. I
Speaker 1: don't think I have a girlfriend when I was doing
Speaker 1: when I started doing interesting, Okay, well I can't explain it.
Speaker 1: Then I do know. You know, Shannon would be very
Speaker 1: verbal with us off camera about her love interests or
Speaker 1: men that she didn't like working with, and she really
Speaker 1: loved working with you. I remember that really yeah, she did,
Speaker 1: and remember being negative. Yeah, no, no, it was solid.
Speaker 1: She was dating a guy then I forget what was
Speaker 1: his name. I think she got engaged to him, Ashley Hamilton. Yes,
Speaker 1: at the same exact time as we were getting engaged
Speaker 1: on the show. It's like almost the same time. It
Speaker 1: really was almost the same. Well interesting because the little
Speaker 1: jen what's the little uh it was almost like a
Speaker 1: lingerie piece for her wedding dress. It was like a slip, right,
Speaker 1: a slip. She went on to wear that as her
Speaker 1: wedding dress. Ish a version of it. So you were
Speaker 1: practiced for her in real life. That was her. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was practice. She was kind of you know she
Speaker 1: she didn't really talk a lot about personal things. Yeah,
Speaker 1: pretty private even new gossip to tell us nothing, that's
Speaker 1: all right. You know. I was in and out. I
Speaker 1: was scared. I was scared. Scared. I was scared. You know.
Speaker 1: I think if I remember, I dated a girl um
Speaker 1: on Robin's Hoods Jennifer Campbell and uh yeah, and uh
Speaker 1: then I dated Robin Lively and on Savannah and he Uh,
Speaker 1: I'm fronting a pattern, Duke called the actor pattern. You
Speaker 1: got me into the bathroom of h UP in the
Speaker 1: Atlanta and he said he said something to me, you know,
Speaker 1: he was, hey, you just like you're cocky. I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not cocky. I'm not. I'm just do I need is?
Speaker 1: And then Aaron had said something to me to my agent, like,
Speaker 1: you know, tell him to kind of back off on
Speaker 1: the girls on his shows or something like that. What
Speaker 1: my agent said that. Who knows if my agent just
