Speaker 1: I am all in.
Speaker 2: Oh, I.
Speaker 3: Am all in with Scott Patterson, an iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 1: My daughter just walked in April Nardini. Hello, Vanessa Mrano,
Speaker 1: Thank Scott.
Speaker 4: How are you?
Speaker 1: I'm doing great? How you doing? You're excited for tonight?
Speaker 4: I am excited for tonight.
Speaker 1: I know it's a good crowd. It's a nice buzz.
Speaker 1: Were you surprised to see what we did to get
Speaker 1: ready to do?
Speaker 3: There was a lot of coffee, so that I was
Speaker 3: not surprised by it. And I actually didn't stop for
Speaker 3: coffee before those because when I know where I'm going exactly,
Speaker 3: am I not? There?
Speaker 1: We go?
Speaker 4: Can you hear me?
Speaker 1: Now? I can hear you perfect? So what do you
Speaker 1: think of this Gilmore stuff? It just keeps getting bigger
Speaker 1: and bigger year in, year out. What do you attribute
Speaker 1: that to?
Speaker 3: I mean, I think a lot of things. I think
Speaker 3: it had a very, very loyal fan base. But I
Speaker 3: was just talking about this, like, when it was on,
Speaker 3: it almost didn't seem as big as it is now.
Speaker 3: And I think it's probably because it's so accessible now
Speaker 3: with streaming that it found a new audience. And then
Speaker 3: also it's so rewatchable. I mean, you know, that I
Speaker 3: was a huge fan of the show before I got
Speaker 3: on the show. I can watch these episodes right over
Speaker 3: and over and over again.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's it's highly addictive stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And there's so fast paced, and there's so many jokes
Speaker 5: that people are forced because you miss I mean, i'm
Speaker 5: watching it now if I haven't seen it ever, it's
Speaker 5: first time I'm watching.
Speaker 1: I have to rewatch scenes because what's that joke? What's
Speaker 1: that joke? What's that joke?
Speaker 4: Yeah, that must be such a trip for you because
Speaker 4: it's been like that.
Speaker 5: That's wild, like watching another person that I don't know.
Speaker 5: I'm not kidding. Oh, I believe, because I don't want
Speaker 5: I can't watch myself. I get a Oh so now
Speaker 5: it's like twenty four years. I'm fine, fine, Yeah, sometimes
Speaker 5: that guy's pretty good and another time that guy.
Speaker 1: Kind of stuff. Oh, come on, very critical, can't help.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about watching yourself?
Speaker 3: I'm okay watching myself, But again, I have a child
Speaker 3: actor brain, so it was like I didn't grow up
Speaker 3: being as critical of myself as a result of that
Speaker 3: because I started so young that it just sort of
Speaker 3: like you almost had to watch yourself to get better
Speaker 3: and like be a little bit conscious of what you
Speaker 3: were doing so I can kind of disassociate out of
Speaker 3: myself a little.
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's super healthy, but I can
Speaker 4: do it.
Speaker 1: You make money off that other people pay a PSYCHIATRYT.
Speaker 5: What would you recommend really young kids getting into acting
Speaker 5: to do?
Speaker 1: How do you think they should go about it?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's interesting and it's obviously so much
Speaker 3: different now than when I started, So like just from
Speaker 3: like an emotional psychological perspective, I would say, make sure
Speaker 3: you actually, like really like it and the craft and
Speaker 3: the school plays and all that stuff, because if you
Speaker 3: don't like it, it's not worth the struggle that it
Speaker 3: is to me your sanity within it.
Speaker 4: And then I would say, like, yeah.
Speaker 3: You do have to sort of realize that you as
Speaker 3: an artist are almost a product in some ways and
Speaker 3: really be okay with that and be okay with like
Speaker 3: what your boundaries are within knowing what it is to
Speaker 3: be putting yourself out there and like they're judging you, Like, yes,
Speaker 3: it's a performance, but all the feedback is going to
Speaker 3: be about you, and that could be really.
Speaker 4: Really taxing on people.
Speaker 3: However, if you love it enough, if you're willing to
Speaker 3: sort of you know, be logical about the whole thing
Speaker 3: and put your boundaries up in that way, I think
Speaker 3: then it is just putting yourself out there and trying
Speaker 3: to create your own projects. I mean, we're in a
Speaker 3: really interesting place now where it's like the influencer and
Speaker 3: people are putting themselves as an influencer. You want to
Speaker 3: be a performer, you can put yourself out there as
Speaker 3: a performer. You can put together your own you know,
Speaker 3: short films, what have.
Speaker 1: You kind of easy to be discovered.
Speaker 5: Now there's now no excuse not to be discovered if
Speaker 5: you really have the intestinal fortitude.
Speaker 3: Exactly what you said, because it is it is a
Speaker 3: lot of work. Like I don't want to take away
Speaker 3: from the fact that, like every day you have to
Speaker 3: be creating something and putting yourself out there and have
Speaker 3: the financial means to do that as well.
Speaker 4: But if you're starting younger, if you have.
Speaker 3: The cushion of your teenager and your parents are supporting
Speaker 3: you and you're trying to figure it out, or even
Speaker 3: if you're in college and learning about your craft, that way,
Speaker 3: doing that in tandem to putting your work out there
Speaker 3: in any way that you can do it, I think
Speaker 3: is the best thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can, I mean, but the training aspect of it,
Speaker 1: you have to.
Speaker 3: Train, and again just to make sure that you like it,
Speaker 3: because it's not worth it if you don't like it.
Speaker 5: You really do need to aggressively go after it, you know,
Speaker 5: like a hungry animal basically, and if you don't have
Speaker 5: that kind of passion for it, don't do it.
Speaker 3: And it also might not look the way that you
Speaker 3: thought it was going to look. I think, you know,
Speaker 3: my sister's on a Disney Channel show, and I think
Speaker 3: for a lot of young kids.
Speaker 4: It's like that's that's what it is.
Speaker 3: It's being on your own Disney Channel show, and it's
Speaker 3: like that's not necessary barely what it is. You might
Speaker 3: be finding your way in as a as a costume designer,
Speaker 3: and then you know, transitioning into a stylist, putting that
Speaker 3: out there, but still finding a way to then get
Speaker 3: your own podcast about that topic. It moves into a
Speaker 3: television show for yourself. All of a sudden, you're.
Speaker 4: On a fashion show, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Like, I'm not saying that's a straight line, but I
Speaker 3: think if you like the industry, or certain aspects of
Speaker 3: the industry, whether it be performance, but it's just overall creation.
Speaker 3: It may not look the way that you envisioned it,
Speaker 3: but you will still get to the place that you
Speaker 3: want to get if you love it enough, and like
Speaker 3: you said, are aggressive enough.
Speaker 1: What are you doing now?
Speaker 4: What am I doing now?
Speaker 3: Well? I've transitioned quite a bit into producing actually, so yeah.
Speaker 3: I produced a film on Netflix that my sister was in,
Speaker 3: which was really really awesome. It's called The Royal Treatment.
Speaker 3: It was very cool to be like Laura's on Netflix
Speaker 3: and then you can go and watch an episode.
Speaker 4: Of Kilmore Girls with me on it. There we are.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I've been you know, producing, writing, I directed
Speaker 3: a music video and then yeah, the Strike. So now
Speaker 3: so hoping to act again sometime soon.
Speaker 5: There were some of your big inspirations in the entertainment.
Speaker 3: Field, Emma Thompson, I love obsessed with Anne Hathaway, but
Speaker 3: I think that's just because like I think I was
Speaker 3: Princess Diary's that.
Speaker 1: She was in a pilot when she was eighteena and
Speaker 1: I was. I did an episode of that.
Speaker 4: That's amazing.
Speaker 3: Word.
Speaker 1: I love her And I saw in a movie theater
Speaker 1: a couple months.
Speaker 5: Later, ship record.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I mean after one episode the Goal,
Speaker 3: the Unmitigated gall I cry.
Speaker 4: I know you thinking about it now.
Speaker 5: Because everybody knew she was going to be a huge
Speaker 5: everybody knows, everybody knows amazing.
Speaker 3: Hell, let's see here, Tina Fe I also am obsessed
Speaker 3: with as well. Yeah, like like pretty much any like
Speaker 3: strong opinionated brunette is someone that I shockingly gramitate towards.
Speaker 1: Any anybody from the Golden era of Hollywood.
Speaker 2: The Golden era of Hollywood forty I mean, look, I
Speaker 2: think it's hard because so many women were being abused
Speaker 2: and overly medicated during that time, so it's a little
Speaker 2: bit difficult to be like.
Speaker 3: But I mean, I think Judy Garland is an amazing
Speaker 3: example of like strength and overcoming adversity during a time period,
Speaker 3: and also like sticking up for the LGBTQ community before
Speaker 3: anybody actually was, which I think is very impressive for
Speaker 3: that time period.
Speaker 4: So, and of course I love the Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 4: It could just be as simple as that.
Speaker 1: What about new projects? When are you're working on now?
Speaker 4: New projects?
Speaker 3: I have a few different things in the producing pipeline.
Speaker 3: Something that I've set myself up for directing. We'll see
Speaker 3: if that actually goes. But you know that's that's what
Speaker 3: it is, man. It's just like chasing, chasing, chasing until
Speaker 3: something lands.
Speaker 1: Van does. It doesn't get better. I miss you. I
Speaker 1: want to work with you again.
Speaker 4: Let's do it. Let's make it happen, right, We've got
Speaker 4: to be aggressive, yes again?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 1: Good deal. We'll see everybody, and don't forget.
