It's Kathy Podewell, who 0:00:13.720 --> 0:00:20.800 was wait Gent the names. She was Ginger, she was Tina, 0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:26.439 she was Adrian, she was Marla good memory on the 0:00:26.480 --> 0:00:30.159 episode through the Bathroom Windows in our one show. But 0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:33.560 she was also she was also Jare's second wife, cal 0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:38.320 Ewing on the hit show Dallas. So we are so 0:00:38.400 --> 0:00:40.720 glad that you are with us. Kathy, thank you for 0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:45.000 taking time out of your busy schedule. My pleasure to 0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:48.600 see both of you, beautiful ladies. I know it's been 0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:55.560 a few years, like thirty, yeah, last thirty, Yeah, just thirty. 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:59.120 Do you have an age? Oh my gosh, look at 0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:05.559 exactly the same. Great, it's crazy. I like you guys 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:10.320 so much. We're here to make you a boost your confidence. 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:14.039 Now today we're so happy because we just watched, uh, 0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.880 the episode that you were and she came in through 0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:22.080 the bathroom window and they're talking about you. So obviously 0:01:22.319 --> 0:01:24.760 most of the episodes we haven't seen in thirty years 0:01:24.800 --> 0:01:28.680 because we don't always rewatch the shows. So when this 0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:30.760 name came up, we were like, she came into the 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:34.119 bathroom window what's that going to be about? And then 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.600 literally she went out of the bathroom window several times. 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:43.520 How did you fit through that little window? Amazing right, 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:48.480 magic of television. Um, but we didn't. I think that 0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:51.240 was kind of an unusual episode. A we didn't work together, 0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:53.840 so you guys were off. I think that Magic Mountain, 0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:57.640 if I recall in that ice and so I've heard 0:01:57.680 --> 0:01:59.560 from people that it is sort of more of an 0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:03.040 unmu rule kind of episode, So I could see why. 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:07.440 You guys will remember the leading from from that. We 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:10.000 were just so stoked to be at Magic Mountain filming 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:12.760 that we didn't think about anybody else at that moment. 0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:16.280 But now watching the show back you you were all 0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:19.800 over that episode. It was all about you, this new 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:22.960 person on the show that came in to the peach 0:02:23.000 --> 0:02:25.400 pit and then you're just in. It felt like every 0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:28.880 scene with all the guys was such a great role 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:33.359 for you, probably so much fun. First of all, as 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:36.760 you know, those guys are fantastic, and I remember them 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:43.200 being so sweet and welcoming. So we had a great 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:45.400 time and as you could see, all the hijinks and 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:50.680 the the mouth washed Marcial to me was the absolute 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:54.760 most mamorial part of that st Yeah, understand, Jenna and 0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:58.080 I lived for this, like the physical comedy, so like 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.160 put a costume on us, we are so happy, especially 0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:03.360 were a ridiculous costume like the one you had to 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:11.800 were you what were you addressed as a journaia curious? 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:15.520 Even worse than a jerm I think, yes, you're a 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:20.080 giant ball of bacteria. Now you were already on Dallas 0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:25.240 when you did this role. Correct, Yes, I actually had 0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:30.360 had worked for about six years. I had a new 0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:33.200 baby when I got the call to do n not 0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:35.480 you went out. I he was a year old and 0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:37.800 I hadn't worked the whole time. I was feeling very 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:41.040 unsure about what working going back to work was gonna 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:43.800 look like for me. I thought I wanted to just 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.720 be a stay at home mom. My husband traveled like 0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:50.400 three out of the four weeks of every month. So 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:56.680 I got a call from the casting director, well through 0:03:56.680 --> 0:04:00.560 my agent, and I think it was Diane is that 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:06.480 who Okay? And she had cast me years before in 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:09.080 a two part of us sort of growing Pains. And 0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:12.280 I got the call from my agent and it was 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:15.240 like they kind of were just sort of offering me 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:18.960 the job, you know, like, how how often does that happen? 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:21.279 So of course they said yes, and I had to 0:04:21.320 --> 0:04:24.479 go I think, to the to the office just to 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:27.920 meet with her, UM where I basically found out that 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:31.120 Jason was going to be directing. So it was his 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.880 directorial debut, which is also a memorable part of this 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:41.800 um this episode. Yeah, so and and and the nicest 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.880 part of the whole thing for me was the casting 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:48.960 director had remembered that I was easy going, easy to 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:50.920 work with. She had heard good things about the Growing 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:55.640 Pains shoot, and she wanted no drama, no diva for Jason. 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.120 You know. She wanted somebody to come in and just 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:02.839 be like chill, which I think I am. So that's 0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:06.560 sort of why I got the call and why um 0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:08.680 I got to dress up in as a germ with 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:14.920 Luke and I M, what a lucky lady. Wow, that's 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:18.560 a good story. Yes, it was his directing debut. I 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.240 had forgotten about that, And it makes so much sense 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:25.760 now when when we recapped the show, it makes so 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:28.800 much more sense that he was do That's just because 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:32.760 it had such a light, like mad cap sort of 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:36.960 fun guys sensibility to it. I mean, it really just 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:40.200 the whole episode just felt like the guys to me, 0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:44.599 like their their sense of somebody doing their three stooges. 0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:51.720 Exactly did you meet Jason before he started or how 0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:54.960 did he handle that? I don't think I did. Actually, 0:05:55.279 --> 0:05:57.719 I think it was just the casting director and she 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.479 just was like, I'm I'm happy me to have you 0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.680 because it will be nice to Jason, and um, I 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.920 think I just arrived on set. I mean, honestly, I 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:11.960 the bulur of well A, it's thirty years ago. But 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:18.039 also I was a new mom and you know, as 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:20.680 you both know, I believe you were both mothers that 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:23.720 you're a little hey, you know crazy. I didn't have 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:26.120 a nannie. I wasn't really set up to like go 0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:30.880 back to work. So my dear friend had a nanny 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:33.480 and she was going to be home that week, so 0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:37.840 she said, bring my son Dakota to me. So I 0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:41.039 had somebody that I was nursing. So that whole thing 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:44.680 was like, okay, what's that gonna look like? And you know, 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:46.640 he was a year old, so it's okay. He didn't 0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:50.960 really like nurse for new trans um. But and then 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.800 as as so that's kind of where my head was. 0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:55.440 But Once I got on set, you know, it was 0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:58.720 like riding a bicycle, got back on. The guys were 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:03.400 so great and it was just a I mean, I 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:05.880 was gonna say it was uneventful in the in the 0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.279 sense of so easy and easy. They're easy to work with, 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:12.920 but I did, of course, because I was so nervous 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.800 about taking that week off. We had to do reshoots, 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:18.520 and I remember that They're like, oh, yeah, so the 0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:22.840 whole germ sequence, mouthwash sequence, We're gonna have to reshoot. 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:28.000 Really why, I can't remember what the deal was what happened, 0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:31.320 but it was like, oh, they need you for another week, 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:37.040 so it was like another week. I mean, it was great, 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:41.480 but it was definitely like, Okay, call my friend, get 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:43.640 that all set up. So you could have brought the 0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:48.840 baby to us. We love babies, so in hindsight, had 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:50.840 I know, I don't think I would have trusted us 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:54.400 with your baby at that time. We weren't quite ready 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:59.000 to be responsible yet, and you guys were in Magic Mountain, 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:02.240 so you know, have been with the guys, I don't know. 0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:06.360 I'm sure that having you know, hearing all that and 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:09.760 where you were emotionally and mentally, like, I'm sure coming 0:08:09.800 --> 0:08:12.040 back onto a set was so nerve wracking, as I 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:14.920 can relate for sure, I know Tori can too. And 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:19.760 I'm sure that the guys made you feel so comfortable 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:24.840 because that's what they did, and they were so complementary 0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:29.320 and welcoming and just loving. I imagine that that did 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:31.320 help a lot. So I'm glad that that was your 0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:36.800 entry back in exactly exactly. I mean, they couldn't have been, 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:42.040 you know, a sweeter group of actors to work with, Yes, 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:45.360 and embrace the chemistry you had was all three of them. 0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:49.200 It's like it's remarkable, Like who could have planned that? 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:53.800 It was so great? I know, it's like exactly, yeah, 0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:57.720 we definitely forget us. Yeah, I remember, and I remember 0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:02.160 so so vividly that probably date three or four, when 0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:04.960 it was just grooving, Luke had said to me, you know, 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:09.120 it's a bummer, and I'm like, what, because I'm doing 0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:13.920 a movie and literally last week they cast the role 0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:17.040 of my wife and you would have been perfect for it. 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:20.559 And it was for eight seconds. He so I missed 0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:25.600 that opportunity to hang it. But that's I know, and 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:28.319 that's how sweet he was, like, Oh, you know, weird, 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:31.600 I'm gonna let you know. This is how great I 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.520 feel about our working relationship that I'm going to tell you, 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:36.880 like you just missed out on the streat thing but whatever. 0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:39.000 But you know, it was so it was so sweet 0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:53.560 at him. There were times when you were on screen 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:55.679 and I was like, wait is that me? And then 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:57.680 there were times when you were on screen I was like, hey, 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:01.319 she looks like Alicia Silverstone, like you have this beautiful 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.600 like you. I don't know, but my husband walked in 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:06.840 while I was watching your episode and he was like, wait, 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:10.559 does that thought the same thing? I think it was 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:16.360 the bag. Thank you? That is so thank me, thank you, 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:22.199 thank you. Yeah, that's very funny.

I didn't watch the episode, 0:10:40.240 --> 0:10:44.040 but I remember that Burr Reynolds does come in at 0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:47.640 the end, and I remember thinking, or at least I've 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:52.760 been wondering if if at that time I was so 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:55.679 excited or was I a professional actress because I don't 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:57.720 have a memory. Does this happen to you, guys where 0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:00.800 you think back about the amazing act as you've worked with, 0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:03.840 and you like pinch yourself now in a way that 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.120 you didn't in the moment because you were young. Do 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:09.480 you know what I'm saying upon reflection in our you know, 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:13.120 more mature face of our life looking back at a 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:17.319 career and that you worked with, going, oh did I 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:20.800 not freak out? You hugged him, you fully, like, just 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:25.280 got a big old Burt Reynolds hug. Oh h, I 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.880 got to touch Burt Reynolds. But that's what I'm saying. 0:11:27.960 --> 0:11:31.959 I don't remember at the time other than he was 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:37.719 Reynolds and a huge star. I remember fan girling me 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:42.160 now with like geek out bay more like, oh my god, 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:45.120 it's for rentals. I think that I didn't. I think 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:48.720 that you weren't aware, Yeah, but are you just weren't 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:53.240 aware of his impact on the history of television and film, 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.000 Like I remember we weren't even in the scene when 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:58.360 Burt Reynolds came in, And I can remember going and 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:02.120 watching from behind the camera just to see Bert Rynolds, 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:04.679 like I was so excited, but even more excited now, 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:06.920 like you're saying, like more excited now to see him 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:11.240 on than I was that. Has that happened? Have you guys, 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:17.000 have you looked back over the show and like, has 0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:20.040 there been somebody that was undiscovered who's now a name 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:23.320 or something like that, Like, has that happened where it's 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:26.000 also that that you didn't realize in the moment that 0:12:26.080 --> 0:12:28.480 this person was going to go on to be ye Jen? 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:33.360 Who was that?

I think 0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:32.319 I did. I think I did, Yeah, because I can, 0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:35.840 I can. I remember there was a crying scene in 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:38.200 the bathroom. Or maybe it's just in my head and 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:40.200 I'm remembering the acting, but I think I did. You 0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:43.520 didn't cry, you cried. Yeah, Okay, that was a great 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.320 scene too. You were sitting on the toilet crying. Yeah, 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:49.600 and you're a pretty cryer, so it was good. Yeah. Thanks. 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:54.720 Do you get recognized from your that role from being 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:59.280 nine on two one O? My funniest story about this 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:04.040 being recognized on this show was the fact that I've 0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:07.520 been a mom for stay at home mom, I would actually, 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:09.440 I have to say, I think I know to one 0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:13.280 out sort of nailed that coffin closed. I think once 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:16.480 I had to do the reshoots, it really made me 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:20.480 evaluate and decide that, yeah, I'm gonna give this mommy 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:24.640 thing a because being torn and like having that, or 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.120 my agents were getting frustrated because I'd be like, no, 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:31.000 that's shooting in Canada. I'm not gonna audition for that. 0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:32.960 You know, they just want to send you out and 0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:34.680 book you and they don't want to hear that you 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:36.120 don't want to go out for this or that. So 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:40.080 it's funny and I know to want out basically cemented 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:41.800 that I want to just stay home. And so I 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:44.320 did our show made you want to quit the business? 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:48.040 Basically pretty much? Yeah, no, no, no, we've had that effect. 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:54.760 Yeah no, no no, I just you know, that instability 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:59.760 of not knowing or or just now having that kind 0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:04.400 of up. Like I said, my husband traveled, so totally understandable. Yeah, 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:07.960 it's hard to to work and be a mom, especially 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:10.920 a new mommy, and go on a set like it's 0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.600 a it's a different work environment. So there's a lot 0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.360 of different elements to it that people don't really realize. 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:20.440 But very admirable of you to be able to define 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:22.960 that because you went on to have other children, right 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.720 I did? I did? I have? I have three, three kids. 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:28.080 And that's what I was gonna say when you said, 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:30.320 do I ever get recognized? So I just was in 0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:33.240 mommy mode for all these years. I did PT president 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.320 the elementary school and all of that, and it was 0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:39.440 every so often a rerun would come on and I 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:42.400 get a mother tappy me quite oh my god, you 0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:45.440 were an actress and I saw you on blah blah blah. 0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:48.360 So I do have a mom who's a huge and 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.480 I know too, want know fan Lilyle you know who 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:56.760 you are, and she like blasts every time she takes 0:15:56.760 --> 0:15:58.800 the screenshot if every time it's on and she sees 0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:01.280 so she's really free and she's a huge fan and 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:06.920 recognized for Dallas all the time. Not so much, I 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:10.840 know that all the time. No, I mean in my world, 0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:14.240 so you know, I I don't. I don't kind of 0:16:14.280 --> 0:16:18.000 get out of my bubble that often and and if 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:20.800 I do, it's for an event, so it'll be you know, 0:16:20.840 --> 0:16:24.640 a Dallas Greenian thing or you know. So then then 0:16:24.720 --> 0:16:30.680 obviously people here care you. I mean, come on, And 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:34.680 that was all before um you guys, so like I said, 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:39.520 you know that that was that was a good run. 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.000 It was supposed to be for seven episodes and they 0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:45.440 kept me on for three years, so that was really Yeah, 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:51.400 that was a nice deal. Again, also very great cast, 0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:55.160 super sweet had been together, you know, like you guys said, 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:58.160 I think this was season three and my correct, yes, 0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:01.120 So you guys were all read of a family and 0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:05.520 whenever a cast, a big, large cast like you guys 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:09.320 are Dallas are established, and they've been together as a 0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:15.160 family to welcome in a you know, one time actor 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:19.360 for for an episode, um so graciously as you all did, 0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:22.879 uh is. And that's how I felt on Dallas. I 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:27.320 felt super super lucky to um, you know, be working 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:32.040 with these fantastic human beings. That's good. That's good to hear. 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:33.720 Because I was going to ask you how different were 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:36.359 the two sets, like the energy or the vibes on 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:38.480 the two sets, because Dallas was such a huge show 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:41.280 in its time and Tuna was such a big show 0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:48.040 in its time. Um well, obviously the energy was different 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.320 in the sense that you guys were young. It was 0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:56.320 a young cast, an ensemble of young actors. And uh. 0:17:56.480 --> 0:18:00.640 With Dallas, I was working with some right legend obviously 0:18:00.680 --> 0:18:06.359 television legends, but also screen legends. Howard Keel was um 0:18:06.440 --> 0:18:09.959 j R. Stuck dad and you know seven brides were 0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:15.080 seven brothers. I mean, Hollywood Royalty, huge um mark in 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:17.880 the industry, not to you know, not just Larry Hagnant 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:20.879 who you would it was linked to Gray or Patrick Duffy, 0:18:20.920 --> 0:18:25.359 but the ensemble for that cast is like, yeah, amazing, 0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:30.520 so different. I felt, I felt older on your set, 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:32.280 because I was a little bit older than all of you, 0:18:32.320 --> 0:18:35.840 and I felt way younger on death that it was 0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:40.440 a different it was a way different vibe, but still, 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:43.760 like I said, embracing and loving. And you know, you 0:18:43.800 --> 0:18:47.159 hear all these diva stories of sets, and I'm just 0:18:47.320 --> 0:18:49.800 really lucky the jobs and the shows I've worked on, 0:18:50.840 --> 0:19:05.359 I didn't witness any of that. I think you have 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:08.480 such an, like you said before, an easy going, sort 0:19:08.520 --> 0:19:13.440 of natural friendly energy about you that that brings that 0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:16.639 to you probably and I don't. I can't imagine you 0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:19.360 being caught up in a drama situation and that that's 0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:25.840 really cool thing for sure. Who the three boys was 0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:29.560 the most memorable or or welcoming or you know, they 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:33.159 all are, But that's a really good question. It was 0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:40.640 the funniesta. They were all sort of vying for your attention, 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:45.359 and I was like, wait, are they being like misogynistic 0:19:45.600 --> 0:19:50.639 piggies right now? Or is this flattering? I I couldn't really. 0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:53.119 I mean, in this day and age, it would be 0:19:53.160 --> 0:19:57.399 probably seen as the first, but I don't think it 0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:00.760 was meant that way back then you were you were 0:20:00.800 --> 0:20:02.880 it was like a fresh piece of meat walked into 0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:10.760 the peach pit and everybody freaked out. Yea, so funny 0:20:11.040 --> 0:20:13.720 it is, isn't it crazy how you watch things now 0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:17.879 and you're like, um, yeah, that makes me feel weird 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:22.280 a little questionable. So I can't answer. I know, on 0:20:22.320 --> 0:20:25.639 the set, I didn't feel any of that good. But 0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:27.560 that's funny. I I need to go. I should have 0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:30.640 watched the episode. I'm really sorry that I but that's 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:34.399 interesting that you would, you would sort of pick up 0:20:34.480 --> 0:20:37.720 on I think now I'm just too sensitive to it all, 0:20:37.760 --> 0:20:40.760 like with my you know, with the kids these days, 0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:47.399 and microaggression and uh, masculine, toxic, masculine, all these words 0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:50.240 that go on in my household that I'm a little 0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:54.439 too sensitive to it now. Yeah, no, I know it 0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:57.040 happens here too. I can't remember what it was the 0:20:57.080 --> 0:21:00.400 other day, my girls were appalled. It's something funny. Think 0:21:00.400 --> 0:21:02.680 if it was like a sign Feld skit or something 0:21:04.320 --> 0:21:06.679 or even friends. I can't remember what it was, but 0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:10.600 they were like, oh, you know, so yeah, where everybody's 0:21:10.640 --> 0:21:13.800 just got like open, you know, nerve endings to all 0:21:13.840 --> 0:21:18.200 of that. Right now? How old are your kids? Uh? 0:21:18.400 --> 0:21:22.680 Youngest is heading off to college next week. So oh 0:21:22.760 --> 0:21:25.120 the blast one doesn't make a bond, so I could 0:21:25.160 --> 0:21:28.160 look a little rifleshed, even though I'm like in her 0:21:28.200 --> 0:21:32.600 closet taking stuff out, dust cat here, trying to get 0:21:32.600 --> 0:21:36.280 her path. So she leaves next week. She's twenty. Then 0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:39.560 that's my baby. Then I have a twenty eight year 0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:43.439 old girl, and Dakota is thirty. Boy. So, and what 0:21:43.480 --> 0:21:46.720 about you guys, how old are your kids? Geez? They range? 0:21:46.760 --> 0:21:49.080 What's the range to our? I have the oldest. So 0:21:49.400 --> 0:21:54.399 my oldest is twenty five and your youngest is wow 0:21:55.880 --> 0:21:58.680 and everything. I believe you have a twenty five year old. 0:21:58.800 --> 0:22:02.600 That's amazing. Well, we have a third year old. I know, 0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:08.520 it's weird. It's weird. We started, we started young, Yes, 0:22:09.160 --> 0:22:15.600 that's it. Yeah. So you think you'll ever go back 0:22:15.640 --> 0:22:20.520 to acting? Well, so the plan always was when my 0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:26.280 when my kids were out of the house, here we go. Yeah, 0:22:26.320 --> 0:22:28.160 but I don't even know what that looks like. Are 0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:33.880 you guys working, because it's changed so much, and I'm 0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:35.800 sure you still have your ages. But it's for me, 0:22:35.840 --> 0:22:40.400 it's going to be starting over. It's like head Shots Agent, 0:22:40.760 --> 0:22:45.800 the whole shebang. I think it's doable. It's it's just 0:22:45.880 --> 0:22:50.200 a definitely a different landscape out there right now. Plus 0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:53.399 it's everything is self tape, which is frightening when it's 0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:57.600 you know, you're not that tech savvy. Yeah you can. 0:22:57.640 --> 0:23:00.720 You can go into a place and they'll they'll help you. 0:23:00.840 --> 0:23:05.920 Yeah yeah, yeah. Somebody said, have you considered being an influencer? 0:23:08.000 --> 0:23:11.800 Because that's all the rage right now. I know that 0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:14.600 what do we say, gents, slide into your d M. 0:23:15.200 --> 0:23:21.160 You know you've got this. It'll be it'll be an 0:23:21.200 --> 0:23:25.080 interesting transition for you in so many ways because while 0:23:25.160 --> 0:23:27.760 you've had your two oldest kids leave the nest, now 0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:29.880 that the last one to leave the nest, and you're 0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:32.000 going to be looking at a lot of big decisions 0:23:32.040 --> 0:23:35.120 about you, which is something that you probably haven't done 0:23:35.600 --> 0:23:39.960 in a while. Yeah, for sure, for sure, it is. 0:23:41.080 --> 0:23:43.919 It is something I've said for so long that I 0:23:43.920 --> 0:23:45.920 can only you know, I only have this time with 0:23:45.960 --> 0:23:49.320 my kids and while they're here and you know, in 0:23:49.520 --> 0:23:51.960 my house, and then I have the rest of my 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:54.080 life to be an actress. And then all of a 0:23:54.119 --> 0:23:57.679 sudden it's done and it's time for the rest of 0:23:57.680 --> 0:24:00.800 my life. And it is kind of little, a little daunting, 0:24:00.920 --> 0:24:06.040 like what does that look like? So I'm excited. You 0:24:06.040 --> 0:24:08.720 get to define it, you get to do whatever you 0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:11.399 want to do, and that's the cool part about it. No, 0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:15.120 you're right, You're right. I do have a little glitch. 0:24:15.200 --> 0:24:18.440 I my mom lives with us and she has Alzheimer's, 0:24:18.920 --> 0:24:22.760 so that is now kind of I do have one 0:24:22.840 --> 0:24:26.680 person left to worry about taking care that. It's very 0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:30.080 similar to me my I as my all my kids 0:24:30.080 --> 0:24:32.160 are leaving the nest. Now my mom is coming back 0:24:32.200 --> 0:24:35.440 into the nest, and it's like, wait, when am I 0:24:35.520 --> 0:24:42.320 going to get my life back? Exactly exactly. Wrestling with 0:24:42.359 --> 0:24:46.720 that is tough because you you know you're doing the 0:24:46.840 --> 0:24:51.960 right thing. Um, but it's also like, hey, my turn, 0:24:52.119 --> 0:24:56.720 you know. So it's all good, it's all good, very blessed, 0:24:56.840 --> 0:25:00.800 and it's a it's a a good struggle, you know. 0:25:00.920 --> 0:25:04.280 I'm blessed that I can. I can make those choices 0:25:04.440 --> 0:25:08.120 and figure it out. So well, you're a very gifted actress. 0:25:08.200 --> 0:25:11.520 So we hope that you return to the acting world. 0:25:12.840 --> 0:25:16.760 Thank you. I hope so true.
