0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:39.000
<v Speaker 1>other when Wendy came on the show. We knew each

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:43.240
<v Speaker 1>other through a mutual friend named Tammy Morgan. Yes, okay,

0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:46.400

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I was very excited to come on. I was like

0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:52.520
<v Speaker 1>a friend. And you played Darla, who we always heard

<v Speaker 1>from Brenda about Darlin Minnesota. Now we get to see her.

0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.120
<v Speaker 1>But I didn't know you're early on two episodes. I

0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 1>felt like you were on way more than two episod oats,

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:03.920
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I know, it don't really seemed like more,

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe because I was always auditioning for two and a lot. Yes, yes, yeah,

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.640
<v Speaker 1>wait did you audition for the original main cast? You

0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:18.840
<v Speaker 1>know I was thinking I definitely I think so, I mean,

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I was in New York then, but I think I did.

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you're a role Jenny, I don't. I mean, I

0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:29.080
<v Speaker 1>definitely auditioned for the The Mail Rose Place. I know

0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 1>that the original. Um. I remember that because obviously nine

0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:35.880
<v Speaker 1>o two and I was already established, so everybody knew

0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:38.280
<v Speaker 1>about it. Um. But I could have I could have

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 1>out of New York. You totally were a Kelly Taylor.

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean I was watching you in the scene with Brendan.

0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:47.800
<v Speaker 1>I was saying, he looks just like Kelly Taylor, and

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:49.720
<v Speaker 1>I was like, why didn't she get my role? Like

0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 1>she would have been great if you were amazing, But

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.640

<v Speaker 1>we all got ringworm. Yeah, we all got ring one.

0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:02.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean I didn't even know what it was. What

<v Speaker 1>is you got like on your skin or on your

0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:10.240

<v Speaker 1>on my arm. Yes, you and it was like rowdy circles.

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:17.040

<v Speaker 1>Everyone's like, oh my god, it's ringworm. Yeah I don't.

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:22.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I kept the cat after that, did

<v Speaker 1>you I did? I did, Yes, And I got another

0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:30.960
<v Speaker 1>disease and died very young. It was like it was

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:36.440
<v Speaker 1>not it was not a healthy strike hat. Well, that

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:39.360
<v Speaker 1>was sweet that you guys took the kiddies home, which

0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 1>we would have not been working that day or you

0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 1>would have had Yes, I was she definitely would have

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:47.960
<v Speaker 1>taken one home. Yeah. So do you remember getting the

0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:50.680
<v Speaker 1>role of Darla? Like what was that process? Like, I mean,

0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 1>here's the thing. I really wanted to obviously be on

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>nine or two and oh because it was such a popular,

0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, benchmark for everybody our age and now obviously

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 1>continuing on. So yes, I desperately. I mean I really

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:11.040
<v Speaker 1>auditioned a few times. I mean I remember walking down

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 1>that huge office of your father's tory and he would

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 1>sit in the middle and he had all of these people.

0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:22.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know there were ten people in the room.

0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:26.239
<v Speaker 1>I I mean I must have auditioned for that show

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:30.560
<v Speaker 1>ten times. I mean different, I mean a lot, a

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 1>lot um. So obviously I was ecstatic to like, you know,

0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:40.280
<v Speaker 1>finally get a job on nine or two one? Now

0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:42.840
<v Speaker 1>and when when you got the part, did they say

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:44.760
<v Speaker 1>it's for two episodes or did they say it might

0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:48.719
<v Speaker 1>be longer? Yeah? I think they said, like it could

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 1>you know obviously that you never know where things are going.

0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:56.240
<v Speaker 1>So but clearly Brenda didn't like being in Minnesota. I

0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know what happens in the next episode, because I

0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen in the show, so I'm assuming she doesn't

0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:03.960
<v Speaker 1>say in Minnesota though, But what was that like to

0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:06.599
<v Speaker 1>be to come on the show and be playing the

0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:10.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, Brenda's best friend and having this like reconnection

0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.279
<v Speaker 1>with her. She you know, obviously she like talked a

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 1>lot about Darla always like kind of a character that people,

0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:23.640
<v Speaker 1>even though it was just two episodes, people remember because

0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:26.159
<v Speaker 1>I think they always she always talked about, you know,

0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:28.839
<v Speaker 1>going back home. Um. So it was like it was

0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:32.320
<v Speaker 1>really kind of like a big deal. I mean, I

0:05:32.800 --> 0:05:37.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was fun. Like I also think it

0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:39.520
<v Speaker 1>was the beginning of a season, Am I right? It

0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:42.880
<v Speaker 1>was like right in the first episode of season four? Yeah,

0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:46.200
<v Speaker 1>so I remember, like it was I mean, obviously you

0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 1>guys were in the press and there was so much

0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:51.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, hoopla, and I was like, oh, this could

0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:56.279
<v Speaker 1>be also like a not a nice working environment walking

0:05:56.320 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 1>into but it was amazing and nice. And do you

0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.480
<v Speaker 1>remember who the first person you met was on set?

0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Um or which of the guys it might have been?

0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 1>Jason Priestley? It was pretty nice. Hm. I actually think

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:14.359
<v Speaker 1>like it might have been him, because did you have

0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 1>scenes did Darla have scenes with the other cast members

0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:19.840
<v Speaker 1>or was it always just Brenda in Minnesota? Just Minnesota?

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:23.840
<v Speaker 1>So it was like isolated, which is probably why I

0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:27.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't meet you. Um it would have, you know, Tori.

0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Was there something doing something? Obviously a scene switch, Yes,

0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:38.839
<v Speaker 1>collect Darla, it does. It's hard to believe that Darla

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:42.719
<v Speaker 1>was only in two episodes. I know, because remember my memory,

0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:45.320
<v Speaker 1>I thought this continued. I was like, oh, yeah, Wendy

0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:46.960
<v Speaker 1>was on the show for like a good part of

0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 1>the fourth season, and then they were like, no, two episodes.

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:53.400
<v Speaker 1>That's crazy. And Rachel True was in it. This is

0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:55.440
<v Speaker 1>before she did the craft, I think. So I was

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:57.080
<v Speaker 1>super excited. I was like, oh my god, I forgot

0:06:57.120 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 1>she was in this too. It was like every whole

0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 1>group of girls, everybody passed you. It's true. It's true.

0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 1>They either passed through it or they wanted to for sure, Like, yeah,

0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 1>it was it was a good job to get where.

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>So you were born in New York City, but where

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>are you living now in l a A. Yeah. I

0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.800
<v Speaker 1>always say I've only been an adult in l A.

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:27.720
<v Speaker 1>I never And you've just been working, working, working, working,

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 1>working your whole life. Now, I like work as a

0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 1>as a mother, like, which is the most challenging job?

0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:36.040
<v Speaker 1>As I know you guys probably what do you what

0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.840

<v Speaker 1>Mimi LaRue is no longer alive. This is true. She'd

0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 1>be like yeah, she'd be like in her thirties at

0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:02.640
<v Speaker 1>this point, and now I'm just kidding. Um. Yes. I

0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:16.679
<v Speaker 1>And I played like a wretched Brentwood woman that was

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:20.760
<v Speaker 1>called by you know some things that the mayor is doing,

0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:23.760
<v Speaker 1>which you know, I don't know how I can play

0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:30.000
<v Speaker 1>appauled Brentwood women I played. I played the worst version

0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:39.920
<v Speaker 1>of Tammy hard Copy that this is Amy the producer.

0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:46.000
<v Speaker 1>But learned everything and your husband's yes, your husband around

0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the time you did nine O two one oh. No,

0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:52.640
<v Speaker 1>I met him definitely after that, No, because nine O

0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 1>two I was like early nineties. I would say, you

0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.040
<v Speaker 1>guys were and then he and I did a Christmas

0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:03.199
<v Speaker 1>movie other you guys were together when we did that.

0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:08.400
<v Speaker 1>That was probably in the late nineties, yes, early yea, Yeah,

0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:15.679
<v Speaker 1>we met a ninety eight I wrong? Or is your

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:21.720
<v Speaker 1>husband from Lois and Clark Jimmy, Yes, you were absolutely correct. Okay,

0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:27.440
<v Speaker 1>which makes it so interesting because Dean Caine was on

0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.800
<v Speaker 1>nine O two one oh in all six degrees of

0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:35.040
<v Speaker 1>nine O two one because he imagine six degrees of

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:39.120
<v Speaker 1>nine two Kevin Bacon for nine O two and oh

0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:44.760
<v Speaker 1>jillion times too. I can't remember if he did. I

0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.280
<v Speaker 1>mean I didn't know him at the pilot, but I

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.160
<v Speaker 1>mean you said he was on nine or two and

0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:51.199
<v Speaker 1>o two he was, He wasn't, but I'm sure we

0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:54.720
<v Speaker 1>auditioned for it. I don't think he actually ever did

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:59.520
<v Speaker 1>spelling stuff. I mean, everyone listening needs to google Wendy

0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:02.920
<v Speaker 1>and I go land this because you will immediately go,

0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:06.400
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, oh my god. Yes, he's a he's

0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:10.439
<v Speaker 1>a he's a lifer. He just did that show called

0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Cruel Summer that was on. It was so good. Wait

0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:18.440
<v Speaker 1>it's coming back for season two? Right? Oh yes, yes,

0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:22.280
<v Speaker 1>But they didn't tell the cast that until a year later,

0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:25.920
<v Speaker 1>the entire cast, So it was not It was not

0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:28.280
<v Speaker 1>that I love that show and I saw Michael and

0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh my gosh, good for him. He

0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:33.560
<v Speaker 1>looks you both look you both have an age there.

0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:36.080
<v Speaker 1>You guys were always such a dreamy couple. But like,

0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:39.280
<v Speaker 1>he was great in the show. He was great, he is,

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 1>he's very good. Yes. Do your kids want to be actors? Um? No, not.

0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:48.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, they don't really know what they want to do.

0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:52.160
<v Speaker 1>My daughters like kind of leaning into film right now,

0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.480
<v Speaker 1>like she shoots things on like Super eight. You know,

0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:58.800
<v Speaker 1>she hasn't said the acting And I know everybody always

0:12:58.840 --> 0:13:00.959
<v Speaker 1>says I never want my kids to be actors. But

0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:04.920
<v Speaker 1>I also kind of it's the best job in the world.

0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 1>Like actors are artists, and we show up and we

0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:14.079
<v Speaker 1>connect and we live and it's it's a wonderful. It's

0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:17.240
<v Speaker 1>a wonderful. I mean it's horrible and it's wonderful. I

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:21.120
<v Speaker 1>think the actors get a very bad rap sadly, and

0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to say that if you want to be

0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:30.600
<v Speaker 1>an actor, you know, follow your heart and do it. Actors,

0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.520
<v Speaker 1>we play this game called kiss Mary or kill? Will

0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:38.120
<v Speaker 1>you indulge us? Wendy Benson landis please? Um? So, out

0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:41.560
<v Speaker 1>of the boy characters, who would you kiss? Who would

0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:43.400
<v Speaker 1>you marry? And who would you kill? No? Kick to

0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:47.240
<v Speaker 1>the curb? Sorry, we don't kill anybody here, Um kick

0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:51.319
<v Speaker 1>to the curb? Well, hey, I'd kiss all of them.

0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:56.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, why not, They're all cute? Right? Maybe not?

0:13:57.120 --> 0:14:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Can I say it? Vince Young? Yeah, hasn't come on

0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:06.360
<v Speaker 1>the show yet that We've never had anyone come up

0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:09.200
<v Speaker 1>with that name. What made you say that? Because he

0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:14.000
<v Speaker 1>was my roommate, Tori what. Yes, when he moved to

0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:18.559
<v Speaker 1>l A he lived with. Have you and I ever

0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:22.200
<v Speaker 1>talked about this one? Yes? You're like, yes, yes, yes, okay,

0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 1>just kidding. Oh it's coming back now, Okay, okay, sorry, Wait,

0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 1>did you guys know each other through Vince? No? We

0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:34.480
<v Speaker 1>knew each other through my friend, through our friend, Tammy Morgan,

0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:37.960
<v Speaker 1>and then he because we had known each other since

0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 1>we were teenagers, like late teens. Yes, with Tammy, and

0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 1>then No, and then Vince. I don't know, I mean yeah,

0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:49.560
<v Speaker 1>years later. I mean he lived with me for like

0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:56.480
<v Speaker 1>six eight months before before he got you know, so

0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:58.680
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't a good roommate. That's why you'd want to

0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:03.480
<v Speaker 1>kick him to the curb. He was totally he was.

0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:06.120
<v Speaker 1>He was. She's made a joke that I literally didn't

0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:11.680
<v Speaker 1>get at first. I was just like, what, yes, we

0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:17.160
<v Speaker 1>have circled backs? Yes, yes, okay, And who would you marry?

0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know any of them well enough,

0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:26.480
<v Speaker 1>but just the character, so like Brandon or Dylan or

0:15:26.760 --> 0:15:32.520
<v Speaker 1>I think Dylan probably would have probably been the one

0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:38.400
<v Speaker 1>I liked the most. H Yeah, yeah, that's a common answer, yeah,

0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:44.440
<v Speaker 1>sorry usually Okay, Wait did people recognize you from nine

0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:49.000
<v Speaker 1>two one? Oh? Like from any after? How? Like I

0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:50.920
<v Speaker 1>know you from somewhere, but I don't know what it

0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:54.600
<v Speaker 1>is they do that and then so like now, the

0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 1>next generation, like my daughter's age kids a few years

0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:02.360
<v Speaker 1>ago started I think after the second the reboot, they

0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:05.120
<v Speaker 1>came back and they started watching the original, so that

0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden I had like young you know,

0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:11.640
<v Speaker 1>my daughters they're probably fourteen fifteen at the time, would

0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:14.200
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh my god, your mother was on ther Wridge,

0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:18.960
<v Speaker 1>So that would that was that was kind of funny.

0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:22.280
<v Speaker 1>And then I will every once in a while literally

0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:25.600
<v Speaker 1>be like somebody will say you were on nine of

0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 1>two or no, and it's I mean, I'm staring right

0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:33.040
<v Speaker 1>at you and you look exactly the same. You. You

0:16:33.240 --> 0:16:39.080
<v Speaker 1>need to stand a little closer, do not in person?

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:41.520
<v Speaker 1>You'll be like, oh, yeah, she does have bad vision,

0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:44.920
<v Speaker 1>but you do look great. My glasses on, I can

0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:49.200
<v Speaker 1>see everything. What are you working on these days? Like

0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:51.680
<v Speaker 1>do you have a project coming out? And just being

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:54.320
<v Speaker 1>a mom? I'm really being a mom. I've actually started

0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:59.960
<v Speaker 1>writing a little bit. I have a have a nine

0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:01.920
<v Speaker 1>dea that I don't know if I can write the

0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 1>entire thing, but I'd like to get it to a

0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:06.720
<v Speaker 1>point where I could show it to somebody else that

0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.199
<v Speaker 1>could write it. We have a lot of writer friends

0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:13.119
<v Speaker 1>and like the people we hang out with mostly are

0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:18.280
<v Speaker 1>funny enough. Are are a lot of very successful writers,

0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:22.639
<v Speaker 1>so we you know, perfect of writing. I'm gonna I'm

0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna try that well now to give him a little

0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:28.000
<v Speaker 1>treatment or something something like, do you think you would

0:17:28.040 --> 0:17:31.400
<v Speaker 1>go back to acting now that the kids are getting old? Tori?

0:17:31.600 --> 0:17:35.560
<v Speaker 1>If anybody were to call, I would in a heartbeat,

0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:39.679
<v Speaker 1>so you know, like I mean, it's just, you know,

0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:42.159
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I never got famous enough to be

0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:45.280
<v Speaker 1>able to have enough of the name right now where

0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:48.320
<v Speaker 1>people are so every once in a while you say

0:17:48.320 --> 0:17:50.399
<v Speaker 1>what I did. I also worked on a soap opera

0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:54.240
<v Speaker 1>cup maybe last year, and that was kind of fun

0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:58.119
<v Speaker 1>and nerve wracking because you have so many lines and

0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:03.879
<v Speaker 1>you get one take. I was like, my god, my memory. Um,

0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:09.360
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, so I would again like it's I think

0:18:09.400 --> 0:18:13.520
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a wonderful profession, so that's not It is

0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:16.320
<v Speaker 1>a hard business, though, once you have removed yourself to

0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:18.080
<v Speaker 1>be a mom and be a wife and then try

0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:21.160
<v Speaker 1>to go back, it is I would assume quite difficult.

0:18:21.480 --> 0:18:23.960
<v Speaker 1>It is hard, but I also being removed, like I

0:18:24.080 --> 0:18:28.399
<v Speaker 1>understand now why I wouldn't get certain jobs where I

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:30.720
<v Speaker 1>remember going like, well, why can't I play this? I

0:18:31.400 --> 0:18:33.680
<v Speaker 1>can do this, And now you're like, no, you you

0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:37.719
<v Speaker 1>actually look like a mother of college age kid who's

0:18:39.440 --> 0:18:41.639
<v Speaker 1>making bake sale cookie. I mean like I get I

0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:44.800
<v Speaker 1>get where you know, the typecasting and all of that

0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:47.880
<v Speaker 1>stuff comes in, you know where I think I used

0:18:47.880 --> 0:18:50.960
<v Speaker 1>to take so many things personally, Like I can play golf,

0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:55.280
<v Speaker 1>I can be you know, a cop. I always wanted,

0:18:55.320 --> 0:18:59.680
<v Speaker 1>always always wanted to. Really, yes, I want to play

0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a cop too. That sounds fun. I don't think I

0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:08.680
<v Speaker 1>could play a cop. I wouldn't be believing. I feel

0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:10.800
<v Speaker 1>like we might have played cops on Mystery Girls, like

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:13.440
<v Speaker 1>as a joke, but I guess stripper cops or something. Yeah,

0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:22.320
<v Speaker 1>are you sorry? Oh? Well, your two, your time is

0:19:22.359 --> 0:19:26.040
