Speaker 4: way to kick it off, I know, like all he

00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 4: goes uphill from here. Let's let's go ahead and set

16
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 4: the ground rules. Last time you were with us, you

17
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 4: use the F bomb. I do believe F Yeah I did.

18
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 4: I didn't I but here's the book. Asked me what

19
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,279
Speaker 4: my favorite cuss word.

20
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: Was, and I did. But you could have said, you

21
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: know F It feels like that was a trap. I

22
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 2: really hate the government watching our every move. But here'

23
00:00:59,080 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 2: see this button.

24
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 4: This is ump. Yeah. So if you do use which

25
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 4: I seen Jerry Duty.

26
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 5: If you've seen Jerry Duty, it might mean a complete

27
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 5: different thing, and I got a question about it.

28
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 4: I can't recreate that here.

29
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: That was beautiful, by the way, Oh my god, thank

30
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: you the problem department. But if you do use a

31
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: foul word, you were responsible for hitting your own dump buck.

32
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 4: What is that to go? Take it back? Ten seconds?

33
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 3: Yeah?

34
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 4: Five seconds? Yeah, okay, all right, we can practice if

35
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 4: you wants. Okay. So we like it raw, we're raw

36
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 4: dogging it.

37
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 2: So James Marsden is here, of course, plays James Marsden

38
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: in jury duty.

39
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 4: It was what several weeks ago, who was it said

40
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 4: you got to see this, you have to see this.

41
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 4: It was me, it was you, Yes, totally intriguing. Half

42
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 4: of the room has seen the whole thing. The other

43
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 4: half has seen only half of it. That half get out.

44
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: So I mean we've described it, James, you describe exactly

45
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 2: what it is about, and then we'll move from there.

46
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 4: Okay.

47
00:01:54,920 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 5: So it is an unscripted comedy where basically myself, I'm

48
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 5: playing myself actor James Marsden going to jury duty with

49
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 5: a bunch of other people who are all improvisational actors

50
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 5: relatively unknown. So and there's one guy who is there

51
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,119
Speaker 5: in the room for three weeks who thinks the whole

52
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 5: thing is real and it's completely fabricated and fake. So

53
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 5: it's the Truman Show meets The Office style comedy and

54
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 5: it's amazing.

55
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: And by the way, Ronald, the one guy out of

56
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: the dozens who's not an actor, he wins some sort

57
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: of award as being a great human being. I mean,

58
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 2: he comes across it. He was edited as being a

59
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 2: wonderful guy. Is he really as wonderful as he really is?

60
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 5: And I don't think the intention was ever for the

61
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 5: show to be some sort of morality test, but it

62
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 5: became one when so Lee Eisenberg and Jean Stunitsky, the

63
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 5: producers of The Office, creators of The Office, David Bernad

64
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 5: who created White Lotus friend of mine, they came to

65
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 5: me and said, hey, we don't want to do a

66
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 5: prank show. We want to create a hero's journey for someone.

67
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 5: We're going to surround this guy with a bunch of

68
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 5: eccentric weirdos and sort of bizarre circumstances and see how

69
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 5: he reacts and hopefully by the end he'll have his

70
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 5: if we get him to the finish line, he'll have

71
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 5: his twelve Angry Men moment where he becomes the kind

72
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 5: of leader of the group and sort of unifies us all.

73
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 4: And that's what happened.

74
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: Two questions. One was he your first choice or their

75
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: first choice? And two did they try other people out?

76
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: Like and it didn't work?

77
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 5: And so they're like, no, no, this But you know no,

78
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 5: I wasn't in on that whole process. But I showed up.

79
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 5: You know, I was finishing up did a couple episodes

80
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 5: of Party Down, and I was The other improv actors

81
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 5: were already rehearsing, so I only had two or three

82
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 5: days of rehearsal, and it was it was very intense,

83
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 5: but they just said, Heky, here's our guy. He's six

84
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 5: foot six, he's a solar panel contractor out of San Diego,

85
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 5: and let's go for it.

86
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 4: So I didn't know what they had planned. But Todd Shulman,

87
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 4: one of.

88
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 5: Our other producers who does all of Sasha Baron Cohen stuff,

89
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 5: they have a team of people who are good at

90
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 5: finding like vetting people and interviewing and finding the right person.

91
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 4: They came up with Ronald Gladden, who you'll see on

92
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: what Wednesday, Yeah, he'll be here Wednesday. And they could

93
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 4: not have chosen a better guy.

94
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 5: Nice guy, really pure hearted, and the show, I mean,

95
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 5: by the end of it was it does have this

96
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 5: sort of kind undertone to the whole thing, and I

97
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 5: think it surprises people by the end that you you

98
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 5: actually hopefully get.

99
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 4: A little moved. I was moved. Yeah, No, I really was.

100
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 6: I was fascinated by the whole thing. Like, at any

101
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 6: point during this, did you guys feel badly.

102
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 5: Like, oh, well, well you, I mean, if you have

103
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 5: a heart throughout the whole process of like, three weeks

104
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 5: is a long time to mess with somebody's human experience,

105
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 5: and even if by the end of it your intentions

106
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 5: are to celebrate this guy's humanity, you know, you're still

107
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 5: keeping him in the dark for a really long time.

108
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 5: So I made sure that by the end of it,

109
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 5: I was like, I'm going to race up to that,

110
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 5: up to him, give him a big hug and let

111
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 5: him know that, Yes, a lot of these scripted beats

112
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 5: were fake, and the trial is fake, but the relationships

113
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 5: and friendships that came from the whole thing were very real.

114
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 1: Did you go home at night and feel bad, like

115
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 1: you say, oh, I'm such a bad.

116
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: Guyn I mean, listen, he's a great guy. He's not

117
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: that great. You'll see on Wednesday. It was also interesting

118
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 3: speaking of dumping foul words. He can say the the

119
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 3: S word. I had to sound like a kid, but

120
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 3: but he couldn't say the F word. There's some things

121
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 3: were bleeped out, some things weren't. How can you say

122
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 3: the duty word? Huh are the adults but not say

123
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 3: the F work? There was a choice there.

124
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 5: I think there's some I don't know the the the

125
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 5: the powers that be that be that that that indicate

126
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 5: that I think you can, like I know the difference

127
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 5: between in movies, the difference between Pg. Thirteen and R

128
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 5: is that you can't say the F word. You can

129
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 5: say it once, but it can't be about the act

130
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 5: right right and then, But the S word can come

131
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 5: in a few more times. So I don't I don't

132
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 5: know who by whose standards that is. But somebody's setting

133
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 5: that this world is fed up man rules, and here

134
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 5: we are just right back in the dumps.

135
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 4: Okay, back to Drey duty.

136
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 6: Sorry, chance that another version of this comes out, like

137
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 6: or a duty to or a different scenario, sure.

138
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 5: I mean, anything is possible if we pull this off. Yeah,

139
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 5: I don't know. I don't know what they're planning on.

140
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 5: But the show is just like has just gone meteoric

141
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 5: as far as like, I've never been a part of

142
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 5: something that's just been shot out of a Canada as

143
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 5: quickly as this show. And just then day after I

144
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 5: was walking down the streets in New York and every

145
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 5: other person was saying the Jury, the jury Duty, it's great,

146
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 5: and I just I think TikTok kind of took took

147
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 5: over and it's so funny because the new thing I

148
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 5: would like to say about this is that the response

149
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 5: has been so unreal to this show and the popularity

150
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 5: so quickly. It almost feels as unreal as the world

151
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 5: that we created for Ronald Gladden. It feels like we're

152
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 5: being pranked.

153
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: By how maybe this isn't a real radio ad that

154
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 2: would have been very.

155
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 6: Have so many trust issues after this?

156
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 4: Are you real? Y?

157
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 2: Well, look, we're not giving anything away, as you know.

158
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 2: I mean, there at the end of the series there

159
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: is a reveal and they tell you know, this has

160
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 2: been all a prank and the look on his face,

161
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 2: I don't even know how I would react, because I

162
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 2: would I would want to hurt someone.

163
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 5: I think, yeah, well he was great, No, he was great,

164
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 5: very very kind hearted, you know, and there were characters

165
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 5: that were supposed to kind of turn him off and

166
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 5: scare him a bit, and he put his arm around him.

167
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 5: This one guy makes these pants that made out of it,

168
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 5: like chair pants. Yes, and he's supposed to he's supposed

169
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 5: to be a little weirdo eccentric.

170
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 4: And Ronald kind.

171
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 5: Of introduced him to the bugs life like they had

172
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 5: a couple of movies in the in the the the

173
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 5: little room in their sequestration room, and and he told

174
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 5: him this is about a guy who's trying to invent things,

175
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 5: and he's kind of feels like ostracized, and and he

176
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 5: took him out and got him like a makeover.

177
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 4: I mean, like the guy's a sweetheart. He really is.

178
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 2: He's an and most likable guy ever. Now let's talk

179
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: about your character, James Marsden character. Sure, sure, I mean

180
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:58,160

Speaker 2: egotistical narcissist.

182
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 4: You can say.

183
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 5: It self involved entitled Hollywood exact petulant.

184
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:15,600

Speaker 4: that's me. Uh no.

186
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 5: It was one of the one of exciting things about

187
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 5: being a part of this was I got excited about

188
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 5: going in and doing the improv bits because Christopher Guest

189
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 5: and Larry David all the style of comedy has always

190
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 5: been something that really inspired me. So to me, for

191
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 5: me to go in with the office creators and get

192
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 5: in the room and mess around with these improv artists

193
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 5: were it was really fun to me, but also sort

194
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 5: of the idea of lampooning and sending up the Hollywood

195
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 5: entitled uh, you know actor who thinks that there's no

196
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 5: conversation that's interesting other than the one that's about him

197
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 5: and his resume is just kind of and then watching

198
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 5: the guy you know in a room full of.

199
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 4: Jurors who just couldn't give two SS's right? How was that?

200
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: And You're like, I could be a distraction the je like, well,

201
00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: I have no idea.

202
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 4: There was so much it was perfect. Uh.

203
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 5: And even Ronald when he came in that the spoiler

204
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 5: for people we planted a woman to come up and

205
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 5: ask for a photo with me and then he's like, oh, yeah,

206
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 5: I knew I recognize you from something I didn't know what,

207
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 5: and I was somehow I bring up Sonic and he goes, way,

208
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 5: you were in that movie I heard that was not

209
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 5: a good movie.

210
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you will watch it. That's why I

211
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 4: watched it. Like I didn't know Ben Schwartz was in it.

212
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 4: You didn't tell me Ben Schwartz, isn't it By the way,

213
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 4: it's just turning us on. James Marrison is here. We're

214
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 4: talking about Jury Duty, which I found on Prime.

215
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 5: That's yeah, it's it's on Amazon freebe which is their

216
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 5: new like ad supported to see.

217
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 1: Things with commercials. It's like old school to some people,

218
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: but new school to a lot of I.

219
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 4: Don't think they do it really well. I think they

220
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 4: do it really well. It bothered me at all. Yeah, No, no,

221
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 4: it's it's.

222
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 5: I think people are now on on Freevie and enjoying

223
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 5: the show on there.

224
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I think if you have Prime.

225
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 5: To don't quote me on this, I think you can

226
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 5: see it if you have a Prime membership too.

227
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 4: I have a Prime membership. I watched commercials. Man, you

228
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 4: sound like you're bragging. You're bragging.

229
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 2: Okay, I am, thank you so Jury Duty, by the way,

230
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 2: it moves fast. And there's another thing I've been telling

231
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 2: our listeners is you really shouldn't be like I usually am.

232
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 2: You need to give it several several runs, several episodes,

233
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 2: you really do to really truly immerse into the characters. Well,

234
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 2: you just watch half of one episode, you're not gonna

235
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 2: you're not gonna get it.

236
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 4: Right, right, Yeah, No, you got to see the whole

237
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 4: and it's an easy watch.

238
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 5: Like you said, each episode is about twenty five I've

239
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 5: got a lot of people saying that we binge the

240
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 5: whole show in an afternoon.

241
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 4: But uh, but yeah, there's a little there's little subtle

242
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 4: jokes that you might slip by you if you just

243
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 4: give it one pass.

244
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 5: So please, viewers, listeners, several several times, down several streams.

245
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 4: Please.

246
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 5: I loved any many times. Yeah, it's fun. I mean

247
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 5: I didn't know it was gonna work, to be honest.

248
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 5: It's a little bit of a social experiment. It was

249
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 5: like what, I couldn't think of a show that was

250
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 5: a comp for it. And I guess some of the

251
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 5: Nathan Fielders stuff, but I don't know. I think ours

252
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 5: stood out because there was a sense of decency to

253
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 5: it at the end of it, and that we did want.

254
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 4: To take care of this guy. But as you said,

255
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 4: accidental decency, accidental decency.

256
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 5: But yeah, but it's it doesn't take away from the

257
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 5: fun ride along the way.

258
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 4: Have you ever served on a jury? I have once

259
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 4: in LA. Did you get out of it? No?

260
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 5: I tried to, but as soon as I walked into

261
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 5: the courtroom I saw a wall full of eight by

262
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 5: ten head shots of other actors that have already served

263
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 5: on jury.

264
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 4: There's no way in hell I'm getting.

265
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 1: Out of this because a lot of what else is

266
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 1: going to be in there?

267
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,559
Speaker 5: Right, and actually this is not made up. Halfway through

268
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 5: the one of the attorneys opening arguments, he turned to

269
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 5: me and said, oh, by the way, I love your work.

270
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 4: In the middle of this case, and I just kind

271
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:40,239
Speaker 4: of looked at the judge.

272
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 5: Like, but he was like big old grin, like, Nope,

273
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 5: you're staying here.

274
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 4: I kind of figured now with this show, maybe.

275
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 5: Maybe I'm exempt from now on. I don't know, no, no, no,

276
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 5: they're all going to request. They're gonna request. Another thing

277
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 5: I loved about the show was you. Of course we

278
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 5: recognize you, but the other actors they are all actors.

279
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 5: They just they seemed so real, even as quirky as

280
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 5: they were, I totally forgot they were actors. Well, the

281
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 5: thing is right, Well we have to you know, we

282
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 5: got to keep Ronald believing that this is actually a

283
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 5: real experience, right, So the tricky dance was the comedy

284
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 5: in the scripts, again there's no scripted dialogue, but scripted

285
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 5: beats that we had to kind of push and moments

286
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 5: of absurdity, and but we couldn't go too big with them,

287
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 5: otherwise he would sort of be like, what's going on?

288
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 4: This is way too much.

289
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 5: And anytime he started to get suspicious, the director Jake

290
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 5: Simancy would say, okay, guys, you know when he wasn't around,

291
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 5: let's pull it all back. Get ready for four or

292
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 5: five hours of boring, droning on in court. I assume

293
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 5: that's what heed what we call the reality bank, So

294
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 5: that he would go, well, this can't be a show

295
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 5: because the most boring five hours I've ever spent. So

296
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 5: then of course we just cut that out of the

297
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 5: final edit.

298
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 4: And of course at the end you do see you

299
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 4: see a little bit of how they put it together,

300
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 4: and it's remarkably interesting. The whole thing is just fascinating.

301
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 6: How you guys didn't laugh. There were so many There

302
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 6: are moments we did I would have broken. You guys

303
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 6: did a great time.

304
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 4: There were moments we did, but yeah, it was it

305
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 4: was tricky.

306
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 5: It was like what happens if we get two weeks

307
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 5: in We got three weeks total and someone you know,

308
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 5: screws it up and call somebody by their real name

309
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 5: instead of their character name, and Amazon has two weeks

310
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 5: of footage that they can't use. But it was a

311
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 5: high wire act and I think we were all That

312
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 5: was part of the excitement.

313
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 4: And the good news also is you had so many people,

314
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 4: so if one person makes a little mistake, you have

315

Speaker 4: teen other who can recover it, can kind of buffer us,

316
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 4: buffer it. But it was fun.

317
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 5: I think people are liking it too because it's just

318
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,800

Speaker 5: a part of, Like the Enchanted franchise is fun. Hairspray

347
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 5: was a fun thing to be a part of because

348
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 5: it felt like I was doing live theater. You know, yeah,

349
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 5: you know, X Men was fun because you're playing, you know,

Speaker 5: fulfilling a childhood fantasy of being a superhero.

351
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 4: But I don't know.

354
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 5: I didn't think that. I didn't think that was gonna work.

355
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 5: I always think every job of mine's not going to work.

356
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: That tough to do, like, you know, keep it straight.

357
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

358
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 5: Well, I when Liz Feldman, the show runner, came to

359
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 5: me and said, we want you back. How about how

360
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 5: do you feel about playing a twin because my original

361
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 5: character dies in the first season. And I was like,

362
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 5: come on, well, what's the real idea? And she said, no, twins.

363
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 5: She said, I know it's a bit soapy, but the

364
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 5: show's kind of, by nature a little soapy and we

365
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 5: can kind of lean into it. But yeah, I remember

366
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 5: Christina Applegate was like, because we have sort of sarcastic

367
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 5: back and forth dynamic and she said twins.

368
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 4: Huh.

369
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,600
