WEBVTT - Q&A Meets World! Part 2 0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:20.840 Welcome back, Thank you for your patience, Happy to have 0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:23.639 you here. Welcome to part two of Q and A's 0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:27.200 for season two. Here we go. What were some of 0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:31.120 your tricks for memorizing lines every week? Did you guys 0:00:31.160 --> 0:00:33.920 have any never has a problem, Just they're just in 0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:38.680 my head exactly, young brains that were sponges naked them 0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:41.440 up and by the time show night came around, you 0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:43.800 just they were just in your head absolutely the next 0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:46.000 day and filled up with new ones. Do you guys 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:49.560 remember being baffled by people thinking it was hard? Yes, 0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:52.879 it was like yeah, and I will never be one 0:00:52.880 --> 0:00:55.280 of those people, like, I don't know if it would 0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:56.760 be hard now I haven't done it, and so but 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:58.840 like I imagine it would. It would kind of come 0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:01.240 back if I practice. But like I remember as a 0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:03.080 kid actor just being like, why are these people think 0:01:03.080 --> 0:01:06.800 this is hard? Yeah, it's muscle memory after a while, 0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:08.600 or just that's what it was. That was part of 0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:12.840 your job. So in the later seasons, Sean Hunter's poetry 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:15.199 comes up and this person said, I remember I saw 0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:17.560 in the credits that it was actually written by writer. 0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.920 I've always wondered how this came about. Was it easy 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:23.160 for you to share your writing and have it be 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:26.080 a part of the show. Didn't we tell the story 0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:29.080 we may have with you? I don't know that we 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.840 told the story of how the how? I mean I 0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:34.920 talked about it. Yeah. Interesting, I thought I told the 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:37.000 story on the podcast. But maybe you know, also we've 0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:39.959 done Q and A's right, so I might I might 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:43.480 be confused. Um, yeah, so they had done. They had 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:46.640 written the script based on the fact that I really 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:50.680 did write poetry in real life. Um, and thanks to 0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.040 David Colmbs, the studio teacher. I you know, and I 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:56.320 know Danielle you feel the same way that poetry was 0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:58.480 basically introduced to your life at a very young age. 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:01.000 It's still a huge thing. Like Danielle and I were 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:03.560 texting each other, you know, a few months ago, but 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.720 like something about some favorite poems and I was like, 0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:09.560 you must know this poem because David probably taught to you. 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:14.919 And She's like, I've got my addition, it was a 0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:17.720 John Keith's poem. Yeah. But then we were also we 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.520 read contemporary poetry. You're sharing Ada Lemon poems with each other, 0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:23.280 and I just I love that. That's a huge part 0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:25.880 of my life because of David and yours too. Um So, yeah, 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:27.920 so I got into writing poet, reading poetry, and then 0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:31.280 were eventually writing poetry. And somehow the writing staff found 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:35.200 out about this decided, which now I see that we're 0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:37.320 in the second season, poetry is always kind of a 0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:41.080 backphone appoint meets world interestingly. Um so, I guess it 0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:43.000 was part of Michael Jacobs, you know, I think he 0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:46.160 likes poetry and loves literature obviously as you see throughout 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:50.360 the show. So they decided to take this aspect of 0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:54.200 my real life put it into Sean and part of 0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:58.160 his storyline, and um, I was really upset. I was 0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:01.880 u I they had written it into the show. At 0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:03.600 this point, they were already taking a lot of things 0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:07.080 from my life. I wasn't comfortable with it always, and 0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:11.280 this one really upset me. And it was David Colmbs 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:13.519 who sat me down. He was like, why are you 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:15.240 so upset about this? And I said, well, I just 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:18.600 feel like I don't know, I didn't say it this way, 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:21.359 but I think I felt exploited to a certain degree, 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:23.959 like I felt like, you know, And what I said was, 0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:26.080 I feel like they've taken a part of me without 0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.680 actually taking it, Like because they had written poems in 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:32.400 the show that weren't obviously not written by me, and 0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:35.040 so David said, why don't you just go meet with Michael? 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:36.800 And so I did. I called a meeting with Michael 0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:39.080 and I sat down and I didn't know what I wanted, 0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:41.480 but Michael offered. He was like, do you want to 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:43.720 write the poems? Would that make you feel better? And 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:46.280 I said, yeah, why don't you give me a chance 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:49.440 to write the poems and if they work, you know, great, 0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:51.280 you can use them. And if they don't, then we 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.000 can just use whatever is already in the script. So 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:59.880 I wrote two poems and and Michael loved the first one, 0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:03.280 and then I started getting notes on the second one, 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:05.560 and I just said, yeah, I really like the second one. 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:07.520 I don't want to change it. So if you don't 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:11.480 want to use my poem, don't. And it became like 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:13.440 a big thing, like I remember in front of the audience. 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:15.640 We were like having all these meetings and Michael kept 0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:18.919 trying to change the actual content of my poem and 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:22.120 I was like, just don't use it, right, like, I'm 0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.239 not going to change like I you know, he wanted 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.479 it to be more accessible, he wanted the poem to 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:29.680 be like, I don't know. I guess it's more I 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:31.200 think that he had a hard time. He thought the 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:34.359 vocabulary was too complicated, the audience wouldn't get it, or 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:36.599 I don't know, And I was like, look, I get it. 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:38.279 I know what you're saying. But if you want to 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:41.359 use my poetry, this, I like this poem. This is 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.520 personal to me. I had written it, you know, for 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:45.800 the episode, but I had based it on my real life. 0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:48.240 And if you don't want to use that, then don't 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:50.520 go back to the poem that you already had. And 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:52.159 it became kind of a face off, and then they 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:55.320 ended up using my poem without changing it. And then 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.120 you know, I that's the one that I get the 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:02.880 most emails, and the first one, which I actually think 0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:05.200 now is kind of a better poem. People don't comment 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:07.320 on it that much. But the Top of the World 0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:09.799 poem is the one that I get the most feedback about. 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:11.599 People love it. So what was the name of the 0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:19.280 other one? An unpublished manuscript for JD. Salinger? Okay, yeah, well, 0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:22.520 we all know that Corey sees himself as Celery, but 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:27.160 what food would your characters describe themselves as being a 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:36.280 great question, so fun. Wow. Um, you know. The first 0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:38.440 thing that popped into my head and it has nothing 0:05:38.480 --> 0:05:41.800 to do with it's just because of what Eric was 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:46.280 and became and was tofu Oh, just because he took 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:48.520 on the flavor of everything that was around him. He 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:51.800 just became whatever you had to become. No, it didn't 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:53.960 have its own thing, it just had I mean the 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:55.880 other thing I would say was just Eric seems like 0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:58.279 a big old, happy slice of pizza or like yeah, 0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:01.800 like a or like a pot pie, like something like 0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:06.080 something warm, food, cozy and comfort foodie that at the 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:07.880 end of the day is probably not great for your heart, 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:12.400 but it's really good for your heart. Oh yeah, man, 0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:14.080 I don't know, I have to talk. I did have 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:15.880 this question ahead of time. I still didn't prepare anything. 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:19.320 I think anything I feel like Topanga would have to 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:24.719 be something that's like a little too difficult to make, 0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:27.520 like something that you're like, I'm not gonna make that, 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:30.680 like um, like three day Ramen, where it's like you've 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:36.200 got to first make the bone broth and everything. It's like, oh, yes, yes, 0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:40.200 I do feel like something like that, something where you're like, well, yeah, 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.200 it's fine, but you really have to work for it. 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:46.239 Yeah that's great. Nice, Yeah, nice. I feel like, yeah, 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:50.000 I mean, Sean's got to be like, uh, like a 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:54.039 like a TV dinner, but like with a twist, right, 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:57.239 Like it's got to be something that would be served 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.960 in a trailer park. It's probably got mayonnaise, but then 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.040 it's got like a new it's like, um, oh you 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.200 know what it is. It's like a casserole dish, but 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:07.000 like with the cheese that's crumpled on top. I gotta 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:09.760 say I could also see just bologna and cheese on wonderbread. 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:15.160 You know, just that old school kind of sandwich. Yeah. Yeah, 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:19.440 it's a lot of mayo. Yeah. Miracle Whip, Miracle Whip. 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:23.320 Which character from the show do you would think do 0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:26.520 you think would have had the best spinoff? They talked 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:28.880 about doing an Eric and Eric and Jack show. I 0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:31.200 think that probably would have been pretty good. But for 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:34.600 the record, you and Ben did kind of have a 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:38.080 spin off. I mean, you know, it was more like 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.880 a sequel show. Yeah, yeah, but still I'm but no, 0:07:41.000 --> 0:07:42.960 there was so I was going to talk about this 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.400 as we got closer, but I was going to leave 0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:48.000 the show at one point. Um, I mean to the 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.240 point where Michael and I had had meetings. We had 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:52.960 meetings with ABC. He'd already written to it. Well, we'll 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:54.880 get to certain scenes where there's a scene where Bill 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:56.880 actually says, do you know what you're going to do 0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:58.840 in life? And I talk about no. But and it 0:07:58.920 --> 0:08:00.960 was because there was a a good chance I wasn't 0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:03.440 going to come back the following season because Michael and 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.920 I what was all Michael had, But I was in 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:09.000 on the pitches, pitched an idea to where Eric moves 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:11.880 to Los Angeles. This was not the seventh season. This 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:17.280 was between This was season four, season five, and we 0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:19.560 met with ABC, we met with Disney. He had the 0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:22.120 pilot all set up. I remember it was Eric was 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.320 driving his car and the start was going to be 0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:27.520 he jumps the ramp at Santa Monica, at the Santa 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:31.120 Monica Pier and just the car slams into the beach 0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:33.760 like this. Eric stumbles out and just walks into the ocean. 0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:35.599 And that was going to be the start of the 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:37.920 start of the episode. And it was gonna be like 0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:39.640 a young friends and he was going to have meet 0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:42.080 all these people in Los Angeles. So he actually, I mean, 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:43.719 we not only had meetings and talked about it, and 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:47.200 he was writing the pilot, but he wrote to it 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:49.920 on Boy. So you can actually see a time where 0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.440 it was like, oh, they're writing me off, and it 0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:55.760 was because Eric was gonna have hispen off. Wow. Yeah, 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:58.760 that's so cool. Yeah, I'm I'm not even sure why 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:00.640 it never happened, to be honest with you, I never 0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:02.439 got I just never left boy. I never got a 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:04.040 reason why we didn't. We didn't do it well, I 0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:06.880 didn't go forward. Yeah, I mean, based on what we've 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:10.920 seen so far, I would love a t K spin off. Yeah, 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:15.080 I think the bullies in general, all the bullies and 0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:18.840 have their own little like version of Boy. That would 0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:20.880 have been really fun. I think what could have been 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:25.240 really interesting too, would have been a UM Alex daysera 0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:28.640 Tony Quinn spinoff. Could have been like a Young Teachers. 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:32.079 See I love Alex, but I don't remember what his 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:35.679 role of the show was at all Teachers, so like you, 0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:39.040 a young faculty. But I mean that could have That 0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:40.680 could have been an interesting kind of show too. You 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:42.679 get kind of friends aspect and all that kind of 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:55.280 stuff that could have ye. Yeah, writer, can you still 0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:59.760 do a handstand slash? Walk on your hands. Uh yeah, wow, 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:07.880 I haven't done. So somebody asked if I could explain 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:11.680 to Penga's cross necklace that I wore slash she wore 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.640 in the later seasons. Was it a choice by producers 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:18.800 or wardrobe in support of waiting for marriage? And it 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.360 was just my necklace. I over the course of my 0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:26.480 life have been on a roller coaster of trying to 0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:29.640 figure out what I think about religions. And when I 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.360 was young, I was raised Catholic, and then we moved 0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:34.599 to Calabasas and we couldn't find a church we like, 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:37.120 so we just stopped going to church altogether. And then 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:41.480 in the later my later teens, I, through different friends 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:44.320 in different avenues, started going to church again. And for 0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:48.160 my eighteenth birthday, I asked my grandmother for a diamond 0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:52.160 cross necklace and she got it for me, and it 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:54.600 was just a gift from my grandmother that I wore 0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:57.520 basically all the time, and I just started wearing it 0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:00.360 as part of my wardrobe and nobody complained. So it 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:02.600 just kind of seems like the jewelry was mostly ours. 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:04.960 It was. It seems like the jewelry was our choice. 0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:08.600 Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, which is interesting because then later 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:10.400 we'll talk about it, of course. But you know, Will's 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:12.320 already mentioned he had to ask permission before he got 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:14.520 a tattoo, and I did not ask permission. I just 0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:16.800 went and got a tattoo, and then we showed it 0:11:16.880 --> 0:11:22.920 in the final scene of BOYD And my goal was 0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:27.960 man so interesting that like our jewelry, nobody really cared 0:11:27.960 --> 0:11:30.400 too much about, but any sort of like body jewelry 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:33.920 stuff was not really supposed Yeah, we weren't really supposed 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:35.640 to do that. You got it removed, though, didn't you? 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.480 I did. Yeah. I had two tattoos and they're both gone, 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:40.800 and can you tell it all? Because I'd like one 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:44.520 of mine a very little bit. But I also stopped, like, 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:48.600 didn't finish my cycle of removals, and also I got 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:51.760 mine removed on the earlier side of tattoo removal. They've gone, 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:54.120 They've come a long way and they're better now. I 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:56.640 actually just recently bought another package to go and have them, 0:11:56.640 --> 0:12:00.120 like I want them gone gone. So um, we can 0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:01.920 go together if you'd like. I just need one. I 0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:03.680 want to keep my others, but there's just one that 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:06.000 if it's like that's stupid. So yeah, yeah, well there's one. 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:07.360 There's one really close to us, so we can go 0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:11.000 have it removed. So, um, where's the weirdest place you've 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:15.800 ever been recognized? Oh? God, the Anne Frank House and Amsterdam. 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:23.480 Oh oh, I know, but it was it was somebody going, 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:28.160 oh my god, I love you, and I was like, okay, okay, 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:32.600 not appropriate here. I'm not an appropriate place to be 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:34.840 doing this right now, so please like wanting to take 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:37.959 pictures and everything, and it's like we're essentially in a 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:40.720 Holocaust museum, like we're not going to be taking Boy 0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:43.320 Meets World pictures here. I'm sorry, we're just not. So 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:46.240 that is the one that instantly jumps into my mind. 0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:51.400 And then being strip searched, um, coming out of Lax, 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:55.680 coming from Amsterdam, and essentially being in my underwear as 0:12:55.760 --> 0:12:58.800 the cop says to me. The police officer says to me, hey, 0:12:58.840 --> 0:13:00.800 aren't you the guy from Boy Meets So those are 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:06.200 my those are my two writer I went. I was. 0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:09.720 I was at a bachelor party and it was one 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:13.000 of these bachelor parties. I hate these things where strippers 0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:17.880 were involved and they're so uncomfortable, if so uncomfortable and all, 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:19.839 you know, but you know, whatever you're at a friend 0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:22.480 of course, of course, and somebody paid for me to 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:25.200 get a lap dance. And this is like not even 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:26.520 in a strip club. This is like one of those 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.760 situations where it's like strippers were brought to us, um 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:34.920 and yeah, sure enough, this this stripper was like, you know, 0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:39.640 in my lap being like I grew up watching your show. Okay, 0:13:39.679 --> 0:13:43.200 I guess maybe I just felt so you know, that 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:46.400 was by far like the just not wanted to be recognized, 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:51.400 like please, okay, okay, I think it's less uncomfortable to 0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:54.760 just tell your friend I love you, but this isn't 0:13:54.800 --> 0:14:01.160 for me. I was twenty years twenty one now I 0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:03.079 was having New York. Yeah, this is when I was 0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:04.920 moving to New York. So I was only twenty. It 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:08.160 was between twenty and twenty four, and it was just yeah, no, 0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:09.920 now I would just be like please, that's how we 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:12.400 ever put me in this position again. Yeah, I also 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.280 think you know, things have changed. This was two thousand 0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:17.160 and something, right, right, right, two thousand and two or whatever, 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:20.840 So yeah, I would be way different about my approach 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:23.320 to that situation. Yeah, I've always been the person that 0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:25.560 was like, if that's what you want to do totally fine. 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:27.640 I'm just let me know when they're coming. And I'm 0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:29.440 leaving and I have I've just been landing. I'll just 0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:32.280 go put myself in the bathroom. I'm just going to 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:36.080 excuse myself from the situation I have. I'm not judging 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:40.920 you at all. You do you, but not for me, 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:44.960 Not for me, Not for me. I actually I have 0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:48.520 similar stories. I've been recognized, you know, in uncomfortable places, 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:51.120 but I just I have one very recently, so I'll 0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:57.480 use that one. I was my just absolutely beloved grandfather, 0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:01.080 who was my biggest fan, you guys. No, Papa, my 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:05.560 mom's dad passed away two and a half weeks ago, 0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:09.800 and he was ninety nine, ninety nine and a half really, 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:14.320 and he passed peacefully in his sleep. And it's, you 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:17.040 know what, how much more can you ask for than that? 0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:20.560 A long life, lived to be extremely healthy until he 0:15:20.600 --> 0:15:24.080 was like ninety seven or ninety eight years old, and 0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:27.680 only then was then diagnosed with COPD and congestive heart failure, 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:31.280 but otherwise incredibly healthy his entire life. And we just 0:15:31.400 --> 0:15:36.240 had his memorial and as I walked in, I said, Hi, 0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:39.240 you know, we're here for the Joe CARBONI memorial and 0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:41.040 the woman said, oh, I don't know if the family 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:42.480 is you know, ready yet, and I said, oh, no, 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:45.480 I'm family. And she goes, oh, excuse me, are you 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:50.360 are you? I think you are? And I was like yes, 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:52.520 and she's like, oh my gosh, I love that. And 0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:56.080 I just thought, okay, it's just I love it, love you, 0:15:56.560 --> 0:16:02.280 and let's let's just calm down a little. Yeah, I 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:04.840 just told you I was family. Like I just told 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:10.960 you exactly now. To her credit, she didn't ask to 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:12.960 take a picture. She didn't ask me to sign the 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:15.760 prayer card. But there are times when yes, it's it's 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:17.800 a little bit of a feeling of like, you know, 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:20.480 for them. For her, it was just her day at 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:22.840 her job, like that was just her place of work. 0:16:22.920 --> 0:16:25.680 So anyway, there's an infamous story too that I might 0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:28.680 as well tell, just because people probably have heard rumors 0:16:28.680 --> 0:16:32.120 about it. But I was shooting cabin Fever and we 0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:36.800 were shooting at an old boy scout camp in North Carolina, UM, 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:39.160 and we had the camp for the most part to 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:42.360 ourselves while we were shooting UM. But at one point 0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:45.080 I was covered in blood because we had been shooting 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:47.480 the scene where I'm like covered in blood. And then 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:49.360 we took a long break or they went to go 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.200 shoot something else and I had to stay in the 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:53.320 blood makeup. And I was sitting in my trailer reading 0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:54.560 and I was like, is it gonna be a while? 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:55.960 They're like, yeah, we've got a couple of hours. So 0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:57.640 I said, okay, I'm going to take a hike. So 0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:00.360 I took a hike into the woods by myself and 0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:05.359 ran into a troop of kids for my boy Scout, 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:08.760 and so I'm walking. I was walking back from my 0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:10.680 hike when I ran into it and I saw him 0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:12.480 coming up and I was like, oh god, I'm going 0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:14.400 to scare the crap out of these kids because I'm 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:16.639 I literally have dripping down my face and I was 0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:19.880 like trying, and so they started freaking out seeing this 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:21.800 bloody guy coming out of the woods, and then they 0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:24.399 all recognize me as riot or strong and then they 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:27.240 started screaming about that. So it was like this weird 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:29.679 rip as I'm like passing all these kids on this trail, 0:17:29.760 --> 0:17:31.680 like one kids looking at the other like wait, is 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:33.639 that is that? Is that? And then like by the 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:35.879 time I was running back to my trailer because they 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:39.720 were all like freaking out. Oh my god, pretty weird experience. 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:41.960 And you say people may have heard rumors about it. 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:43.720 Did that story make its way to the internet, that 0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:46.480 I saw Wright or Strong covered in blood? Yes? Well, 0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:49.439 I think what happened to Eli Eli Roth, who was, like, 0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:52.840 you know, the director of a notorious storyteller. He just 0:17:52.920 --> 0:17:55.639 loves so he told this story like every Q and 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:58.040 A he would ever give, you know, when the movie 0:17:58.080 --> 0:17:59.920 first came out, because he just thought it was hysterical. 0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:02.399 So it's made it to the to the internet, I 0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:04.240 think through him. I'm not sure if any of the 0:18:04.320 --> 0:18:08.920 kids actually wrote about it, but oh that's so funny. Um. 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:11.399 What was it like for us to have animals on set? 0:18:12.000 --> 0:18:13.720 The only time I really remember it is when we 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.120 had the little pigs. Do you remember that the bear 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:18.960 about the bear? I don't think I was in the bears. 0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:21.880 Yes you were, You're in the scene with the bear. Yeah, 0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:26.679 I don't remember. Then it was terrified, really, yes, we 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:29.320 get covered in honey in front in front of the bear. 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:34.239 I have such a fear of bears, and it was 0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:37.000 we had a bear on set had a chain around 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:39.600 its neck, and then we had a bear A couple 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:42.000 times on the set at that time was with you guys, yes, 0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:45.879 and they put a wire, an electric wire between us 0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:47.879 and the bear, like in the doorway because the bears 0:18:47.880 --> 0:18:50.280 in the doorway, and um, we are sitting in the 0:18:50.400 --> 0:18:54.159 in the in the classroom, the college classroom. And the 0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:56.439 joke was that that morning when the bear showed up, 0:18:56.480 --> 0:18:59.119 they handed out pamphlets to everybody on set saying do 0:18:59.280 --> 0:19:02.000 not have food, and do not around the bear, and 0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:04.919 do not move quickly. And then our scene is us 0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:07.280 getting covered in honey and running away from the bar, 0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:10.359 and I remember being like, but we have since the 0:19:10.440 --> 0:19:13.160 opposite of what we were told following any of that 0:19:13.240 --> 0:19:15.080 was you guy, oh yeah. And then we had another 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:18.840 one in the in the Wilderness Store that again they 0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:21.560 apparently used if I got the story right, and please 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:24.240 send all your emails to Daniel Fishel if I didn't. Um, 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:27.080 But they the bear they used in the Wilderness Store 0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:30.320 that we did one time with Lonnie was also used 0:19:30.400 --> 0:19:34.360 in a Will Farrell movie Semipro with the basketball thing. 0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:37.000 And that bear on another set ended up killing somebody. 0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:40.400 That same bear, yes, that same bear that we had 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:45.240 on later ended up like killing somebody on a different sounds. 0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:52.480 It sounds through the hiker. What are the chances of 0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:54.760 that happened? Have you heard about somebody dying on a 0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.480 film set from a bear attack? Doesn't? Like that would 0:19:57.480 --> 0:19:59.960 be a famous story. We would all know on Google. 0:20:00.200 --> 0:20:03.480 I'm googling. I know. Bart the bear was the most 0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:07.520 famous bear actor for years. And that's the one fall. No, 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:11.080 that's like the biggest, most incredible grizzly bear. This guy 0:20:11.080 --> 0:20:14.080 had trained it to fight with him, so he could 0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:16.399 actually fight a full grown grizzly bear. So it's the 0:20:16.400 --> 0:20:20.080 baron the bear. Um, it's the baron legends of the fall. 0:20:20.480 --> 0:20:23.840 So like whenever you see a person actually fighting with 0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:26.720 the uh summer rental, I want to know, what is 0:20:26.760 --> 0:20:29.280 the John Candy movie with a bear? Great Outdoors? I 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:32.920 think anyway, Bart was like the famous bear for years. 0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:37.800 Nev Campbell survived a bear attack on set, okay, and 0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:42.200 Jensen said he did kill a person. He killed his trainer, 0:20:42.520 --> 0:20:48.760 thank you yep. While filming a promotional video, Miller was 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:51.960 killed by a five year old grizzly bear name Rocky Rock. 0:20:52.320 --> 0:20:54.040
