It was amazing. And we also have a beautiful appearance 65 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: by Joseph Marcel, the original Jeffrey. So I think that's 66 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 2: gonna be very, very shocking for people. 67 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: To watch Jeffrey's going through. He kind of a gangster. 68 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,679 Speaker 2: Yeah well yeah, well and we'll see how the old 69 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: Jeffrey plays it to It's honestly gonna shock you. I'm 70 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 2: not gonna lie when when I when I read the script, 71 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: I was like there's no way to doing this, you know, 72 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 2: and so I'm I'm very excited for that. 73 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: Do you read this script like, uh, you know, episode 74 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: by episode or do you get to see what's gonna 75 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: happen throughout the season. 76 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 2: So we're upside by episode so we have no idea. 77 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: So why by the time we got episode eight, I'm like, yo, 78 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 2: there's an episode eight is crazy? Like you know what 79 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: I mean, because we don't know where it's going, you know, 80 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,079 Speaker 2: And somehow the writers on the show shot up to 81 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 2: Carla Banks, Waddles and all the whole writing team. You know, 82 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 2: they're so tapped into the story. But also it feels 83 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 2: like they're so tapped into our lives and they know 84 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 2: where we are in our lives and they intertwine that 85 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: with the show. And that's why I like it feels 86 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 2: so authentic. You know. 87 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: I'm trying not to ask questions that will give anything away. So, 88 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: but we do know Marlon Wayin's and we saw that 89 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: last season that's your father, You're a stranged father on 90 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: the show. There's a lot of different topics on here, 91 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: and I'm wondering which themes you relate to, you know, 92 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: because I know we see rich people problems. And then 93 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: we see Will's problems on the show, right, and his 94 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: problems are so different. But I think we also have 95 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: a tendency to believe that just because somebody grew up privileged, 96 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: they don't have issues. And Carlton has a lot of issues. 97 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: But so do you know Phil and Viv. 98 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's true. I mean, you know, it's like, yeah, 99 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: we see people in these privileged positions and we don't 100 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: think that they're going through the stuff that they're going through. 101 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: And even for the courage to Carlton, like you know, 102 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: like growing up rich black kid in bell l Air, 103 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: Like you know, he's a fish out of order in 104 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 2: his own regard, right, Like Whereas to Will, it's like 105 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 2: coming from Philly to bel Air, He's a fish out 106 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: of order and his own regard as well. And so 107 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 2: like everyone has a story and and so I think 108 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 2: we have we do a great job with highlighting the 109 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 2: different perspectives and the different the different paths that black 110 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: people have, like you know what I mean. Like we 111 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 2: always say, you know, black people are on the monolith, 112 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, And so we really try 113 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 2: to highlight that with this show. 114 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: It's also hard being a black person growing up around 115 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: rich white people. 116 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. I could never imagine that. 117 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, because I didn't go to private school. 118 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: I went to public school first and then I went 119 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,119 Speaker 1: to private school. Yeah, and it's definitely tough, I think, 120 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: making that transition from you know, relating to a character 121 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: like like Will coming from Philly and then go on 122 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: to bel Air. I know, for me, like I was 123 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: in a program where we had to go from public 124 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: school and it was quote unquote underprivileged youth going to 125 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,799 Speaker 1: a private school where all these kids families have money 126 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: and things like that, and it's a culture shock. You know. 127 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 1: It was a culture shock for me absolutely being able 128 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: to try to to fit in in some way and 129 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: never really feel like you belong to. 130 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. And I think a lot of people go through that, 131 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: and that's so many different people's experiences. That's mine as well. Like, 132 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 2: you know, I grew up around all black people, you 133 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 2: know what I mean. I went to school with all 134 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: black people my whole you know, elementary school, middle school, 135 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 2: high school, and then I went to college and there 136 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 2: were so many privileges, like you know, white kids around me, 137 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 2: like you know, and I had a great experience like 138 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,119 Speaker 2: getting to know them and also like trying to find 139 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 2: out where I fit in within this world, this new 140 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: world that I'm in. And I think a lot of 141 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 2: people can relate to that. 142 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: So did you feel like they were any type of 143 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: like because there would be certain things that would happen 144 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: to me, They'll be like, oh, you know like the 145 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: rest of these black people, it's like hold on, slow down, Yeah, 146 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: you know, I am a black person.

Uh you know, let me 417 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: see where your morals are. 418 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 2: No, so check it out, Like no, I mean for sure, 419 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 2: I mean, honesty is the best policy.

You know what I'm saying, And once you 422 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 2: break that trust, it's hard to gain that back. You know, 423 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 2: it's the easiest thing to keep, but it's the hardest 424 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: thing to get back, you know what I mean, once 425 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: it's broken. And uh, and so yeah, I think it's 426 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 2: important to be honest in any relationship, you know what 427 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: I'm saying.
