Speaker 1: M How about the fact that the Declaration of Independence
Speaker 1: wasn't signed on the fourth of July.
Speaker 2: When was it signed.
Speaker 1: It's it was people were staggering in to sign it.
Speaker 1: But it was July second is when everything was was
Speaker 1: actually done.
Speaker 2: So they were holding off.
Speaker 1: Like the famous the famous painting of all of the
Speaker 1: founding fathers and everybody together around the Declaration of Dependence.
Speaker 2: None of that ever happened. That's not photograph exactly.
Speaker 3: Never watched the documentary National Treasure.
Speaker 2: Oh yes, starring Nick Cage. Yes, I watched it with
Speaker 2: my son. Not great. Not a great movie because it's
Speaker 2: a great movie. It is not Nick Cage is a
Speaker 2: National Treasure. I love Nick Cage.
Speaker 3: But but it's it's back in the day, like when
Speaker 3: they would just be like a puzzle here and a
Speaker 3: puzzle there. Nah, they didn't talk. They didn't talk about
Speaker 3: the lack of everybody signing on the fourth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, they were just he's the fourth well, because
Speaker 1: the fourth is it might have been ada. It was
Speaker 1: actually ratified. But again, these were men that were coming
Speaker 1: from all over the thirteen colonies, So it's the idea
Speaker 1: that they were all together at the same time to
Speaker 1: sign it.
Speaker 2: Didn't happen.
Speaker 1: People would stagger in, people would stagger and people would
Speaker 1: stagger in and they and they signed it and it
Speaker 1: was it was actually New York abstaining was the thing
Speaker 1: that finally allowed the law to pass.
Speaker 2: Where where to get down?
Speaker 1: So not everybody voted for independence, and that's where and
Speaker 1: so there are all these I mean, that's why it's
Speaker 1: so sad to see kind of what's happening in our
Speaker 1: country now because our country was founded on compromise. That's
Speaker 1: what our country was founded on. And so eventually New
Speaker 1: York just wouldn't vote yes or no. So they went
Speaker 1: to the New York delegation and said, just abstain. So
Speaker 1: they were with their abstention they were able to pass.
Speaker 1: But no, because I mean the South was making a
Speaker 1: ton of money from from England exporting you know, everything
Speaker 1: cotton and everything else that not everybody wanted to.
Speaker 2: Declare, you know, independence. So that's why Lexton and Concord.
Speaker 1: I mean, when the shot heard around the world and
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, I mean, it changed everything.
Speaker 1: But even when we were at war, and that was
Speaker 1: the thing General Washington, So General George Washington was a
Speaker 1: huge man, especially at the time, he was like six
Speaker 1: foot four when everybody else was like five foot three.
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, I was gonna say five to six,
Speaker 4: but that maybe.
Speaker 2: Even empowering over people.
Speaker 1: And he would go to when everybody was together, he
Speaker 1: would go to all of the discussions and the debates
Speaker 1: in full military regalia.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: So when the time actually came, it was John Adams
Speaker 1: who said we have to appoint a general and everyone thought, oh,
Speaker 1: of course, you're from Massa Chusetts. We were your state
Speaker 1: was your country. So if you were from Virginia, that
Speaker 1: was your country. If you were from Massachusetts, that was
Speaker 1: your country. There was no United States, so the everyone correct, right,
Speaker 1: but that's they called it their country. So if you
Speaker 1: when John Adams stood up, everyone's assumed he was going
Speaker 1: to pick somebody like his cousin Sam Adams, somebody like
Speaker 1: that to lead the Continental Army. Here's who I vote for,
Speaker 1: and they he said, there's only one person, and that's
Speaker 1: George Washington, who was from Virginia. And so Washington very
Speaker 1: you know, was very bashful in actually taking over the lead.
Speaker 1: But the whole I mean, the story of actually how
Speaker 1: our country came to be is just so amazing, and.
Speaker 2: You know, I love this. I remember as a kid
Speaker 2: being like we would.
Speaker 3: I would just get lost in conversations like this with
Speaker 3: you all the time because I knew nothing like I
Speaker 3: was so especially American history. I remember, because you grew
Speaker 3: up in Connecticut, you were surround like you just were
Speaker 3: steeped in it in a way that I knew nothing.
Speaker 1: It was just it was such the entire and talking
Speaker 1: a bill about all this stuff was.
Speaker 2: The what George Washington had wooden teeth?
Speaker 1: I believe he did, because again at the time it
Speaker 1: was the wooden teeth were you know, your teeth fell.
Speaker 4: Out all the time, and the versions of dentures.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, so his dentures were wooden. But there's all that.
Speaker 1: I mean. The height thing is something like, what's the
Speaker 1: one thing if you hear not to jump to another country?
Speaker 1: But when you think of Napoleon, what are the things
Speaker 1: that you think at all short which he wasn't, which
Speaker 1: he wasn't at all. So the French how tall was he?
Speaker 1: He was five seven and the French inch was different
Speaker 1: than the English inch. The French inch was larger. So
Speaker 1: like the the major generals that he was fighting who
Speaker 1: were English were like five two and five three, and
Speaker 1: Napoleon was actually five seven, but they used it as
Speaker 1: a propaganda tool to say that he was the titque
Speaker 1: colonel or whatever they called him, when at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, that was actually a French affectation for
Speaker 1: how much his soldiers loved him had nothing to do
Speaker 1: with his size. It was like they would, you know,
Speaker 1: you'd call your baby the batite whatever, because it was
Speaker 1: a it was affection.
Speaker 2: And so he was actually five seven.
Speaker 1: So like the one thing everyone knows about Napoleon is
Speaker 1: actually untrue, and you get all that stuff. But that's
Speaker 1: why history is just so amazing and so fascinating.
Speaker 4: Well, I just got another one from from husband Jensen,
Speaker 4: cart producer this podcast. It says the dentures were not
Speaker 4: would they were human cow and horse teeth, okay, with
Speaker 4: io pieces and alloy.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 1: I love learning new things. I love learning new things.
Speaker 1: It's like my favorite thing in the world to do.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 4: I love learning new things from you, especially I really
Speaker 4: I think I think we could do an entire podcast
Speaker 4: episode that's just class with Will and Will we'll just
Speaker 4: come to the table with like three topics and he's
Speaker 4: gonna someat and he's just gonna educate us a little bit.
Speaker 2: Will would you do that? Would you say, like, here
Speaker 2: are three.
Speaker 4: Historical things that I think are the most interesting that
Speaker 4: you may not.
Speaker 6: Know about it.
Speaker 3: What if just what if we just you don't have
Speaker 3: any prep and we just say, oh my.
Speaker 2: God, Egypt, what do you want to know? We'll just talk.
Speaker 4: He knows everything, all right, Well, I think I'm in okay,
Speaker 4: welcome to bod Meets World. I'm Daniel Fishl, I'm right
Speaker 4: or Strong, and I'm Wilfredell. When we decided to sit
Speaker 4: down to rewatch Boy Meets World, which we continue to prove, sure,
Speaker 4: feels like we're watching it for the very first time ever.
Speaker 4: We knew we'd be surprised by a lot of things,
Speaker 4: some big ones already. That Minkis is only in season one,
Speaker 4: I'm clearly just not even a part of the show
Speaker 4: until he's three. The Feenie Call is a late addition,
Speaker 4: but one that really snuck up on us. Catherine Kat Tompkins,
Speaker 4: the immediate love interest of mister Turner, sure has an
Speaker 4: important and very present role, and it was excellently played
Speaker 4: by an actress named Darlene Vogel, who will quickly knew
Speaker 4: from Back to the Future two and as the host
Speaker 4: for the Back to the Future Ride at Universal Studios.
Speaker 4: But as far as much as she was on the
Speaker 4: show or how story driven her time with Tony was,
Speaker 4: we just did not know.
Speaker 2: So we rushed to get her.
Speaker 4: On the show when we found out, and we are
Speaker 4: so happy she responded to us and is willing to
Speaker 4: give us some of her time. In addition to Boy
Speaker 4: Meets World and the classic Back to the Future too,
Speaker 4: Darlene starred on the Santa Monica bicycle cop show Pacific Blue,
Speaker 4: a bit of like another Bawatch type but on ten speeds.
Speaker 4: She also appeared on Coach, two episodes of Full House
Speaker 4: as Danny Tanner's younger sister, house Castle, and Silk Stockings.
Speaker 2: But today we will.
Speaker 4: Force her to talk about her four episodes on Boy
Speaker 4: Meets World as the social studies teacher who Will thinks
Speaker 4: rushed way too fast into talking about marriage. Let's please
Speaker 4: welcome Darlene Vogel to Pod Meets World.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got it. Somebody else who hasn't aged what I.
Speaker 6: Got your lighting in here? Oh yeah, it's all about
Speaker 6: the lighting.
Speaker 7: You look fantastic. It's so great to see you. Oh,
Speaker 7: my gosh, we are so excited. I'm just gonna get
Speaker 7: it out of the way now. I see Will foaming
Speaker 7: at the mouth. What was it like to have Back
Speaker 7: to the Future to be your first feature film?
Speaker 4: Were you nervous to join such a hit with all
Speaker 4: those big stars around you?
Speaker 6: You know, it's crazy, is if.
Speaker 5: We didn't even realize what it was when we were there,
Speaker 5: like it, and I mean, you know, it's great to
Speaker 5: work with Michael.
Speaker 6: I don't even think I knew what the job was
Speaker 6: until I was on.
Speaker 5: Set because it was so hush hush, and it was
Speaker 5: a three month process. And then when we were on set,
Speaker 5: was suppoed to beak for two weeks and we were
Speaker 5: there for two months.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, were shooting two and three at the same time.
Speaker 3: Weren't they shooting both movies at the same time?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 6: They went two and three were back to.
Speaker 2: Back, back to back, Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6: So when we finished two, then they went on to
Speaker 6: do three.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But you're on like that big cool back lot at Universal.
Speaker 1: It's this big, mega movie cool.
Speaker 5: It was fun to walk around in my outfit and
Speaker 5: all the tourists were in the trams and they didn't
Speaker 5: know who we were because it was a new thing.
Speaker 5: No one saw us yet, so no one knew what
Speaker 5: we were.
Speaker 6: So yeah, it was pretty cool.
Speaker 4: You've got like punk hair and punk makeup and bits
Speaker 4: around your neck, right, and they put a.
Speaker 5: Red contact in my eye because my eye is half
Speaker 5: blue and brown in really well.
Speaker 4: He remembers that about you, absolutely, absolutely, yes.
Speaker 6: So they got the idea from that, and yeah, it
Speaker 6: was just I mean, it's great. What it was really
Speaker 6: funny is like I didn't even.
Speaker 5: Tell people I was in that movie for the longest
Speaker 5: time because it was so many years ago, and then
Speaker 5: when we did the twenty five year anniversary, all of
Speaker 5: a sudden, I go, oh my god. I mean, there's
Speaker 5: a lot of people that love this movie. And now
Speaker 5: when I mentioned it, it's crazy. It's like, what you know,
Speaker 5: and I go to year, I'm going to Milan, I
Speaker 5: went to Paris just to sign for people. I'm like, really,
Speaker 5: I mean, it's weird. It's just has this full resurgence
Speaker 5: and the fans are getting younger and younger.
Speaker 6: We're just getting older and older. But it's great. Are
Speaker 6: we doing it till I'm three?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 4: So will we?
Speaker 2: We're just still drugging along.
Speaker 6: I know right. Well you all look amazing too. I
Speaker 6: have to say, you look exactly the same. Shit.
Speaker 4: Thanks you do.
Speaker 2: Do you have a Crispin Glover story.
Speaker 6: I didn't work with Crispin.
Speaker 5: It was because there was a lot Yeah, because there
Speaker 5: was a lot of.
Speaker 2: That was a big thing and it's still a big thing.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah. The first one there was contract disputes and a
Speaker 5: little bit of strangeness going on. So they ended up
Speaker 5: taking this guy, Jeffrey Eisman and putting his mask on
Speaker 5: him and just putting him upside.
Speaker 2: Down, and then that became a problem.
Speaker 6: Gotten away with that, I mean they.
Speaker 1: Didn't really now there Now there's like a oh there's
Speaker 1: litigation involved and all that and all that way. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a whole big thing about just taking somebody's likeness
Speaker 1: and putting it in the second movie, and Crispin Glover.
Speaker 2: Was like, hey, you know you can't do that. So
Speaker 2: it was thank you much. What you no?
Speaker 1: I remember when you came onto the set, I was
Speaker 1: I knew instantly who you were really, Oh yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: and was It took me about a day to work
Speaker 1: up the courage, and then you started telling me stories
Speaker 1: from the set.
Speaker 6: Oh so funny because.
Speaker 1: It was just because you know, Tony and I are
Speaker 1: were nerds with that stuff, Tony and so we would
Speaker 1: just we would be like, we got to tell me
Speaker 1: what was like and then we started slow so it
Speaker 1: was like, hey, so you're like in Back to the
Speaker 1: Future or whatever, and then it was then it was
Speaker 1: just story after story after story.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it was a great experience, I have to say. Yeah,
Speaker 5: and Michael was so sweet.
Speaker 4: How big was being the video host of the ride,
Speaker 4: like so many people saw that, I know, And that.
Speaker 5: Was funny because the wardrobe, the costumer from Back to
Speaker 5: the Future, she suggested me for the job and so
Speaker 5: I was like, okay, yeah, sure, I'll do it.
Speaker 6: And then I went.
Speaker 5: I showed up that day and the teleprompter had broken
Speaker 5: and I had all this dialogue and I'm like, I mean,
Speaker 5: thank god they let me kind of read off the
Speaker 5: sheet because I was supposed to be a reporter anyway.
Speaker 6: So but that was crazy. Yeah, yeah, that was fun.
Speaker 5: And then yeah, it was I went to the premiere
Speaker 5: or the ride, and that's where I saw Michael Jackson.
Speaker 6: He was there with the whole with Macauley Culkin and a.
Speaker 5: Whole group of kids and and then I got to
Speaker 5: go the premiere of that.
Speaker 6: But yeah, it was pretty cool to do that, right. Yeah,
Speaker 6: that's all done now though. But there's this whole Back.
Speaker 5: To the Future conspiracy that they think that Heather, my
Speaker 5: reporter character on the ride, is related to Spike, and
Speaker 5: I'm like, no, there's there's no.
Speaker 6: It's so funny these stories that come up later.
Speaker 3: It's an alternate timeline, a multiverse.
Speaker 2: It's a multiverse thing.
Speaker 6: Yeah exactly. Yeah, yeah, so cool.
Speaker 5: You know what I do remember the one thing I
Speaker 5: do remember with you Will and writer with the teaching
Speaker 5: me that you can choot trident gum with the wrappers
Speaker 5: still on it and it dissolves in your mouth, right.
Speaker 6: All the time? Did you know you can shoot try
Speaker 6: to guming with the paper?
Speaker 2: I learned that from you guys, right, I forgot we
Speaker 2: used to do that. You just put it. It's like
Speaker 2: that you made your discovery. It works, it works like
Speaker 2: a charm. I love that.
Speaker 6: That was funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was so great.
Speaker 1: Wait, so the gang from Back to the Future, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's you Casey Schmasco.
Speaker 2: No, isn't Casey in it? So he's not in this
Speaker 2: The second.
Speaker 6: Dean Logan and Jason scott Lee.
Speaker 1: It was Jason Scott Lee was the other one. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's who I thought. It was Jason Scott Lee. And
Speaker 1: then of course Tom uh Tom Wilson. Yeah yeah, who's
Speaker 1: still is still Griff or Biff or Griff Yeah yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: that's right.
Speaker 2: It was the new gang.
Speaker 1: Casey Shamasco was in the the first and third.
Speaker 5: And then they plucked one from each for the third one.
Speaker 5: I think you Reichy from us and like you should
Speaker 5: have picked a girl.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they did it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that would have been fun to be in the
Speaker 5: Western but yeah, crazy. Yeah, I'm still friends with them.
Speaker 5: I mean, Ricky and I talk all the time.
Speaker 6: We do shows together.
Speaker 5: Jason is in Hawaii or no, Yeah, he's in Hawaii.
Speaker 5: He's always working on something. Yeah, he took a break
Speaker 5: for a really long time.
Speaker 1: But yeah, now he's back because right after that he
Speaker 1: did Dragon, the Bruce Lee story, and it was the
Speaker 1: one that really shot him to the whole.
Speaker 2: Yeah it was great. So yeah it was old.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we haven't all been back together since the twenty
Speaker 5: fifth year anniversary.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sorry, I just need to geek out. You need
Speaker 1: you need to back to the future geek out. I
Speaker 1: just had to.
Speaker 6: I's all right, I want to see my hoverboard. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was just going to ask you, what was it
Speaker 4: like filming the hoverboard scene?
Speaker 6: But I have I have someone made me this. Oh,
Speaker 6: it made me this.
Speaker 5: And then they also made me a skateboard.
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
Speaker 6: Cool, yazi cool. I never let my kids ride it though,
Speaker 6: I was like, you can't ride that.
Speaker 2: What was it like shooting that scene?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 6: It was awesome.
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, we just and they put us
Speaker 5: up on We had harnesses on and piano wires attached
Speaker 5: to a crane and they just flung us around the town.
Speaker 6: It was just so I couldn't wait for.
Speaker 5: That scene because we were we had to practice it
Speaker 5: and everything. But the story is, my first stunt double
Speaker 5: backed out because she knew.
Speaker 6: The stunt was not perfected.
Speaker 5: And I don't know if you know all this story,
Speaker 5: but so the day one day I had off was
Speaker 5: the big crash into the courthouse, and Eryl Wheeler, my
Speaker 5: stunt double, she what happened was when they were flying
Speaker 5: it to the courthouse, the crane was off like this
Speaker 5: much like maybe a half an inch and if you
Speaker 5: really slow that scene down you see her crash into
Speaker 5: the pole and then they released them because they were
Speaker 5: supposed to go through the glass and land on mats,
Speaker 5: which which the two other stunt doubles did.
Speaker 6: But she dropped fourteen feet onto cement.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 5: And she had multiple, multiple, multiple surgeries after that.
Speaker 6: And yeah, it was a huge thing.
Speaker 5: I mean, I have to say because a Lisa A Color,
Speaker 5: who was my first stunt level she was like, this
Speaker 5: is not affected.
Speaker 6: I'm not doing this and she knew like something was.
Speaker 6: She wasn't going to do it, but Cheryl did.
Speaker 3: And yeah, oh my god, isn't it crazy that that
Speaker 3: wouldn't even be a thing nowadays?
Speaker 2: Right, It would just all be green screen. You would
Speaker 2: just be like standing out stand somewhere. Yeah, that's crazy,
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it was funny when you do watch that
Speaker 5: movie back, it's like a lot of those things come
Speaker 5: true and and just there's just some weird stuff. I mean,
Speaker 5: like Bob Gail the writer, you know that they so brilliant.
Speaker 5: The writing in that movie is just crazy. It still
Speaker 5: stands now.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's the time.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well let's jump into something else that we like
Speaker 4: to think stands The test of time, Boy Meets World.
Speaker 4: Do you remember your audition?
Speaker 6: No, I don't.
Speaker 2: So many people and they do exactly what you just did.
Speaker 3: They go, you remember being on Boy I'm trying to.
Speaker 6: Gonny because my kids, you know, they're friends.
Speaker 5: When they a lot of them didn't even know it
Speaker 5: was an actress or anything, but they would freak out,
Speaker 5: oh my god, you're on Tooy Meets World and they
Speaker 5: love that. Sh So many kids still to this day
Speaker 5: love that show. It's another one that stands a tots
Speaker 5: of time. But I don't remember the audition. I think
Speaker 5: I already knew Michael Jacobs because why I worked on
Speaker 5: Charles in Charge. That was my first sitcom. I got it,
Speaker 5: and then I did a pilot called Misery Loves Company.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, between yeah, but it didn't.
Speaker 5: Go my version because I was with Rick Rossovich who
Speaker 5: then I got a job on The Pacific Blue.
Speaker 6: But I don't think our version went.
Speaker 5: But I remember David Trainer, Michael Jacobs, all those guys
Speaker 5: were on that, so.
Speaker 3: I can't That would have been between our seasons one
Speaker 3: and two, so they probably you probably didn't audition, and
Speaker 3: then they probably just brought you radio.
Speaker 6: They just brought.
Speaker 4: Me in had you seen any of Boy Meets World?
Speaker 4: You don't have to say yes, had you Were you
Speaker 4: at all familiar with the show before you were then
Speaker 4: on it?
Speaker 6: No? No, I wasn't. No. No.
Speaker 5: I mean, of course I probably watched it before I
Speaker 5: went on it, because I always do all my research.
Speaker 4: But yeah, well, we were so wildly impressed with your
Speaker 4: acting and also how important you are both to mister
Speaker 4: Turner storyline and the Seawan character development. Like what do
Speaker 4: you remember about taping the show? And do you remember
Speaker 4: anything about specifically working with.
Speaker 2: Writer although you didn't really work with writer that much,
Speaker 2: like one scene where I walked in and.
Speaker 5: Write when you were in trouble all the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: I know.
Speaker 6: You know, it's funny.
Speaker 5: I rewatched the episodes this week, and it's it. It's
Speaker 5: funny because I shot like one hundred episodes of Pacific Blue,
Speaker 5: and I watched some of those episodes and I don't
Speaker 5: really remember half.
Speaker 6: Of them shooting them.
Speaker 5: But then when I watched Boybet's World, I go, oh
Speaker 5: my god, I remember this.
Speaker 6: I remember this. I remember that so much. I remember
Speaker 6: when I put my hands.
Speaker 2: On Tony's face, Tony's.
Speaker 5: Face like that doing that go. I remember it was
Speaker 5: such a weird feeling. And then but when I was
Speaker 5: watching it back, I go, come, my voice is so high.
Speaker 5: Because I was younger, you know, I hardly had anything
Speaker 5: to do. I just felt so green. I was like,
Speaker 5: oh my god, it was so green. And I love
Speaker 5: that I got to work with mister.
Speaker 6: Feenie, you know. I mean he's still.
Speaker 2: Around, right, he's such a ninety six.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I remember just being in awe of him because he
Speaker 5: was such an established actor.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 5: It was just such a professional. I loved working with
Speaker 5: all the kids. I remember being at a horse show
Speaker 5: once and Fred was at the horse show and I said, oh,
Speaker 5: I worked with your.
Speaker 6: Brother Ben and you would come and you.
Speaker 5: Know, and visit the set and He's like, okay.
Speaker 6: But I just loved working with you guys because you
Speaker 6: had such great energy.
Speaker 5: You are really the one thing that's really important is
Speaker 5: that you made me feel comfortable. Because I remember being
Speaker 5: on Charles in Charge was my first sitcom, and none
Speaker 5: of the actors said hello, none of them, no, yeah,
Speaker 5: I was a guest star, and they were just like
Speaker 5: they just didn't make us feel welcome. And I was
Speaker 5: like what, So I was just like I was like, Wow,
Speaker 5: I said, you know what, one day when I get
Speaker 5: on a show, I'm going to treat the extras the
Speaker 5: same the guest stars every because it's as family.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I remember being on your show and feeling
Speaker 6: like part of the family. You really made me feel good.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I always hated guest starring and stuff because especially dramas,
Speaker 2: because you know, if it was a single camera drama,
Speaker 2: you might not even meet like of the cast. You
Speaker 2: only work with like one person. I always so intimidated.
Speaker 2: And it's like if you find if an actor comes
Speaker 2: up to you and it's nice to you and it's
Speaker 2: like welcome, or a director whoever is like bringing it,
Speaker 2: it's the best feeling.
Speaker 3: You need that confidence because I mean being able to
Speaker 3: act from a place of like fear and insecurity is
Speaker 3: just impossible. It's so yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5: As we get older in this field, you know, and
Speaker 5: then you know, our roles are just different now and
Speaker 5: you go in to be a guest star and now
Speaker 5: it's not a guest star like it used to be.
Speaker 5: It's like very small sometimes and you just feel like
Speaker 5: I just sit the trailer and I go.
Speaker 6: Why am I doing this?
Speaker 5: I don't even like this anymore because when you're used
Speaker 5: to being a lead of a show and having that
Speaker 5: family and having that camaraderie, it's so hard to walk
Speaker 5: into another family because yeah, it's just different.
Speaker 1: Yeah, were you saying something interesting about not remembering the
Speaker 1: Pacific Blue stuff. There's something about doing single camera where
Speaker 1: you're getting random scenes. You're shooting kind of every day
Speaker 1: all day, as opposed to sitcom where you're rehearsing one thing.
Speaker 1: It's like you're putting on a play. You've got to
Speaker 1: show night. There's something that kind of sticks in your
Speaker 1: head as opposed to just one thing, one thing, one.
Speaker 2: Four days a rehearsal. Yeah, you do, and then there's
Speaker 2: a big night.
Speaker 1: You know, there's a big night around it, and and
Speaker 1: there's a whole cool thing and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 6: So yeah, I love that being in front of an audience.
Speaker 6: And I haven't had that since my twenties. I mean
Speaker 6: that's when I used to do all that, you know
Speaker 6: kind of work.
Speaker 5: But then after that it's always drama and now it's
Speaker 5: the crying mother all the time.
Speaker 6: So it's like I never get to do, you know,
Speaker 6: comedy anymore.
Speaker 2: So do you like doing multicams I did.
Speaker 5: I really did love it because I love the audience.
Speaker 5: Although I don't like doing theater, but I love doing multicams.
Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2: Why don't you like doing theater?
Speaker 6: I just I can't do the same thing week after
Speaker 6: week after week. I was. I did one play once
Speaker 6: that got extended to eight weeks. I go, oh God, really.
Speaker 2: You know more of this? Yeah? I don't know how.
Speaker 3: You know, like somebody like Nathan Lane does, like years
Speaker 3: of the producers on Broadway, like in his fifties. You're like,
Speaker 3: what every night, eight times a week, the same thing
Speaker 3: all the just it's yeah, it's a Mira.
Speaker 2: They say it.
Speaker 5: Feels different every because of the audiences are always to
Speaker 5: be sure. But it's just nothing I would want to do.
Speaker 5: I mean, I did a soap too for a year
Speaker 5: and a half and I said, never, I will ever
Speaker 5: do a soap ever.
Speaker 2: And then you did eleven hundred episodes of a soap opera.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh. When I when I first did that soap,
Speaker 5: I was like, I cried to the executive producer every
Speaker 5: three weeks, I go.
Speaker 6: Can you give me off the show? I couldn't handle it?
Speaker 1: And give me Amnesia, drop me off, Elevator chef something.
Speaker 5: It was like thirty pages a day. My last day
Speaker 5: was seventy pages.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I know it's possible.
Speaker 6: You just had to go, Okay, what scene I am?
Speaker 6: What am I doing?
Speaker 5: And you're pretty much saying the same lives as you
Speaker 5: said on Monday, but you're peating them on Thursday for
Speaker 5: who didn't see Monday. I mean, they're just rewording them
Speaker 5: and it's the hardest work ever.
Speaker 4: We really spent quite a bit of time on the
Speaker 4: scene where you basically dump mister Turner for not being
Speaker 4: ready for a long term relationship, and you do it
Speaker 4: so subtly and you don't really need to, like Hammer
Speaker 4: at home. But also Will felt very adamant, very strong
Speaker 4: feelings that the character pressured mister Turner way too early
Speaker 4: at only four.
Speaker 2: Surely, oh okay, you agree with Will because right away
Speaker 2: we're on the other side.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 5: No, I'm a scorpio, so I'm like and I'm also
Speaker 5: the runaway bride and been engaged many times, so for
Speaker 5: me play that kind of a character, I was cringing
Speaker 5: watching myself on the couch the other day.
Speaker 6: I go, what are you doing? The only one I.
Speaker 5: Liked was when I was when I was being flirtatious
Speaker 5: with them and giving him a hard time about the dance,
Speaker 5: not asking him to do right. That was like that
Speaker 5: because I'm giving a little bit of a hard time.
Speaker 5: But I was just like, oh my god, we've been
Speaker 5: taking for three months, four.
Speaker 2: Months, four months, we're gonna get married.
Speaker 6: That means you want to marry me. I'm like, oh
Speaker 6: my god, how cringe.
Speaker 4: Will is very vindicated, And I have to tell you
Speaker 4: I disagree with you.
Speaker 2: I just I don't want to. I did too.
Speaker 3: I thought calm logic in sitcom logic, like four months two,
Speaker 3: I mean two, like twenty something teachers in love like
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: It made sense. It made sense to me.
Speaker 3: It makes for a good story point because it makes
Speaker 3: for a great breakup. I mean, the way that you
Speaker 3: break up with him is actually really wonderful.
Speaker 1: But again, we could have done this, could have done
Speaker 1: exactly we talked about this in the last one. We
Speaker 1: could have done exactly the same thing by just not
Speaker 1: using the word marriage.
Speaker 2: Where is this going? Is there a future?
Speaker 1: What's it going to be when you're talking married at
Speaker 1: four months? As I said, it was very nice meeting you.
Speaker 1: Please exit stage left. So yeah, it's.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 6: She should have she knows John Guturna.
Speaker 5: She should have said, listen, I'm not the kind of
Speaker 5: girl that wants to get married, and then he'd be like, oh,
Speaker 5: I want to marry you.
Speaker 2: In the game reverse psychology.
Speaker 8: Like getting married.
Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, but I guess it was only a four
Speaker 6: episode arc. I didn't even I don't even know.
Speaker 4: I was gonna ask you, did you know that that
Speaker 4: was going to be your last episode? Do you remember
Speaker 4: if I originally signed on?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't, I don't remember.
Speaker 2: Yeah, hmm.
Speaker 4: Interesting. You also had we talked about some of your
Speaker 4: experiences or being in awe of Bill Daniels. Do you
Speaker 4: have any great Bill Daniels stories, like for you got
Speaker 4: you had to have a lot of scenes with him.
Speaker 5: I did, but he was I just remember him being
Speaker 5: just very professional and he wasn't a chatty guy, you know,
Speaker 5: just and plus you know me coming into a new
Speaker 5: uh you know, a set, you know, stuff like that.
Speaker 6: I I don't. I'm not always myself where I'm very chatty, chatty, chatty.
Speaker 5: I don't want to be that obnoxious guest star, you know,
Speaker 5: So I just let him lay the line, you know,
Speaker 5: because you never know. I mean I I did House,
Speaker 5: and we weren't allowed to talk to him more allowed.
Speaker 5: I was a guest star too, and I'm standing right
Speaker 5: next to uh, what's his name, the guy who played House.
Speaker 2: No idea doctor House, Doctor House, the British doctor.
Speaker 5: Couldn't even like ask him any questions, nothing, And I'm
Speaker 5: him to me.
Speaker 6: We're standing doing the markings and this. Some sets are
Speaker 6: like that.
Speaker 3: So I did a movie with Donald Sutherland and he
Speaker 3: has an eye contact rule.
Speaker 2: Oh he can make eye contact. Well that's when I
Speaker 2: walk up and I go, nice to meet you, sir. Well,
Speaker 2: if you're in the scene with him, you can make
Speaker 2: eye contact with that.
Speaker 3: But you know, his whole thing was that everybody, every
Speaker 3: crew member has to look away. Nobody can make eye
Speaker 3: contact with him. To the point that we're shooting in
Speaker 3: the houseboat and he was delivering some sort of he's
Speaker 3: like a creepy grandfather in this movie's delivering some kind
Speaker 3: of monologue. In the middle of his monologue, he looks
Speaker 3: up and he goes, there's a man outside that window
Speaker 3: looking at me, and like it was.
Speaker 2: Like some passerby, not part of the crew. That was
Speaker 2: like outside the window looking.
Speaker 3: In, but that through the whole take and you had
Speaker 3: to start over and the whole crew had to go
Speaker 3: out and like kick this guy away.
Speaker 2: It's so ridiculous.
Speaker 3: There's a there is an argument to me, when you're
Speaker 3: doing single camera stuff that if your eye catches somebody
Speaker 3: looking at you, you work eyes with them, and there
Speaker 3: can be a problem if you have too many lookie.
Speaker 1: Louse, like in the line in the scene, if you're
Speaker 1: somebody's in your eye line. Okay, I understand that, but
Speaker 1: I'm walking on the set and the crew is not
Speaker 1: allowed to make eye contact.
Speaker 2: Is you can bleep me looking ridiculous? Yeah, it's it's
Speaker 2: that is.
Speaker 1: A stupid egotistical power trip that all comes from insecurity
Speaker 1: of this being an actor, and it's like, you're an idiot.
Speaker 2: Sorry, you're just an idiot.
Speaker 1: Our feeling is for will come on four months. That's
Speaker 1: also just saying you're not.
Speaker 2: Good enough to look me in the eyes.
Speaker 4: Please, I know, forget it. Also, though I feel like
Speaker 4: it's probably a little better now, but in the ninety
Speaker 4: I can only imagine how bad that was. This like
Speaker 4: those sets for women, specifically dart Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean, I have to say I've never had any
Speaker 5: me too stories like that on sets.
Speaker 6: I'm pretty good.
Speaker 5: But as far as yeah, actors being holier than thou, yeah,
Speaker 5: I've had those experiences for sure.
Speaker 6: Except Michael J. Fox. He was not like that at all.
Speaker 2: No, He's like the coolest guy. We got. Got a
Speaker 2: chance to meet him a couple of times, and he's
Speaker 2: so nice.
Speaker 1: Every time you meet him. I remember I just because
Speaker 1: he was my idol. He's the reason that I became
Speaker 1: an actor.
Speaker 2: Essentially.
Speaker 1: He and Alan Aldo were the reasons that I decided
Speaker 1: to be an actor. And we got to meet him.
Speaker 1: I was with you, I think writer and Ben at
Speaker 1: Disney World and we walked up to him.
Speaker 2: We're like, he's right there. We have to go say hi.
Speaker 2: We have to go say hi.
Speaker 1: And Ben took the lead and he went, excuse me, sir.
Speaker 1: We just wanted to say and he went, sir, are
Speaker 1: you kidding me? I've known your brother since he was
Speaker 1: get over here, and like gave in a big hug.
Speaker 2: How are you guys doing? He could not have been
Speaker 2: nicer to hum.
Speaker 6: He gets some.
Speaker 3: Parade through Disney World and he was in the car
Speaker 3: in front of us. He was like making faces and
Speaker 3: shouting things to us the whole time.
Speaker 1: It was It's so validated everything I hoped he would be.
Speaker 1: It was like, oh my god, He's exactly what I wanted.
Speaker 1: It was amazing. I almost cried. I literally almost cried
Speaker 1: because he was just so cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: He invited us to do his trailer for Margarite to
Speaker 5: Fridays and stuff. And I recently, right before COVID, I
Speaker 5: was in New York and I was walking down the
Speaker 5: street and I saw Tracy coming out of a restaurant
Speaker 5: and I go, oh, there's Michael's like Tracy and I go, oh,
Speaker 5: wait a minute, there's Michael. And I hadn't seen Michael.
Speaker 6: Since the premiere. Woh wow, so like that many years ago.
Speaker 6: So my friend Linda was like, you have to say hi.
Speaker 6: You have to say hi. I go, yeah, I'll kick
Speaker 6: myself if I don't say hi.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: So I walked over there and I said Hi. And
Speaker 6: I don't want them.
Speaker 5: To think here I am a fan, you know, I'm like, Hi, Terracey,
Speaker 5: I'm Darklene. I played Spike and bad to Future two
Speaker 5: and They're like, oh my god. And so then we
Speaker 5: had a but then he had said it goes weren't
Speaker 5: you hurt?
Speaker 6: And I said, no, that was my stunt up.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but but yeah, it was really great to see him,
Speaker 5: and they were so gracious. They were so nice. You know,
Speaker 5: I said, Oh, I just went to Paris to do
Speaker 5: a show. They're like Paris, We've got a Philadelphia.
Speaker 2: See him at the comic cons.
Speaker 1: Nowadays it's always like Tulsa and yeah, stuff like that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, speaking of very cool, you were cast as a
Speaker 4: love interest for mister Turner a ka Tony Quinn.
Speaker 2: When do you remember the first time you met Tony?
Speaker 6: Yes, I do, because he was he was so sweet.
Speaker 6: I remember him just being so sweet and so inviting.
Speaker 6: He really was.
Speaker 5: He didn't Yeah, I mean he was great. I mean
Speaker 5: we we got along. I remember we got along really well.
Speaker 5: He's very comfortable to be with.
Speaker 6: And yeah, he was a great guy in the world.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that hair maybe you know he said, least
Speaker 1: least pretentious person in the world.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you guys, Well, we wanted to send you this
Speaker 4: little message from Tony Quinn. So let's bring in Tony Quinn.
Speaker 1: What here? Hi?
Speaker 2: How are you?
Speaker 8: I'm doing great? You look fantastic.
Speaker 6: So do you just shorter hair.
Speaker 8: I see, ah, yeah, that's all gone.
Speaker 2: When did you get rid of the mullet, Tony? I mean,
Speaker 2: I know that bullet, you guys, I told you you guys.
Speaker 8: When when?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 8: I think the last episode that I did my hair
Speaker 8: was different.
Speaker 9: Because they told me I wasn't coming back, so I
Speaker 9: cut off all my hair and I had to audition
Speaker 9: for other shows.
Speaker 8: So I think the last episode I show up with
Speaker 8: way shorter hair.
Speaker 2: MM. So funny he's back now.
Speaker 6: Did you know that it is.
Speaker 8: Nineties?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Not for me. I would look a little bit like
Speaker 8: Ben Franklin.
Speaker 2: I like, hell o, thank you, thank you, Tony.
Speaker 4: We just asked Darlene what she remembers about you and
Speaker 4: working together, and she talked about how sweet and warm
Speaker 4: and welcoming you were and really making her feel at home.
Speaker 4: What do you remember about meeting Darlene for the first
Speaker 4: time and working with her?
Speaker 8: It was pretty much the same. I mean, she had
Speaker 8: this It was immediate.
Speaker 9: It was like, welcome to the party, this is going
Speaker 9: to be great, and we just we just hit the
Speaker 9: ground running.
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you guys had such great chemistry.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, easy to be around, easy to work with.
Speaker 8: It was great.
Speaker 5: I just feel bad that I just really pinned you
Speaker 5: and like wanting to when you go you have such
Speaker 5: great eyes and like does that mean you want to
Speaker 5: marry me or something?
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh my, it's like, what the heck, Tony,
Speaker 4: where do you stand? Where do you stand on that debate?
Speaker 4: We we talked about it when we watched the episode recently.
Speaker 4: Wright and I were both on Kat Tompkins side, which is, yeah,
Speaker 4: you know, at four months, you.
Speaker 2: Guys are you guys? Are aren't like your Gaby Young?
Speaker 4: It's at least worth saying, where do you see this
Speaker 4: being a thing for the future. It's it's a worth
Speaker 4: a check in. But Will is like the minute you
Speaker 4: say marriage at four months, you run out the door.
Speaker 4: And Darlene actually agrees with Will. So let's let you
Speaker 4: be the deciding. What do you think about how she
Speaker 4: handled that at that at that four.
Speaker 9: Months I I sort of was kind of in agreement
Speaker 9: with her in terms of, you know, where is this
Speaker 9: going kind of thing? I mean, we're we're in our
Speaker 9: we're in our thirties, and it's like, are we just
Speaker 9: playing around or that's okay?
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's okay, that's okay. Is there a future here.
Speaker 4: Well, just has a real problem with the marriage insantly
Speaker 4: going to marriage.
Speaker 2: After I, Hey, you got great eyes? Does that mean
Speaker 2: you want to marry me? Like what he does say
Speaker 2: I could stare into your eyes forever verbally hyper people.
Speaker 8: I don't know if Jonathan Turner was using hyperbole at
Speaker 8: that moment.
Speaker 2: And how was she sing? Yeah, because when you say
Speaker 2: something like that, you better dag I mean it exactly.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, because you're not going to play
Speaker 8: around with somebody's emotions and say something like that flippantly.
Speaker 2: I could stare into your eyes forever.
Speaker 1: Is a declaration of undying love that will last for
Speaker 1: an eternity.
Speaker 2: Well, you did use the forever word. I agree with you.
Speaker 10: She just repeated, back, forever. That's what we talked about
Speaker 10: that for you get married. Yeah, we're working on time
Speaker 10: travel and then we have we have a lot of
Speaker 10: the mist of stuff we're doing with the show. When
Speaker 10: we actually invent time travel. We're going to get there,
Speaker 10: We're going to get We're almost there. We're really close
Speaker 10: so far. We have a styrofoam cup and we're doing.
Speaker 2: Well, which is a telephone in Connecticut. Thank you very much.
Speaker 2: I grabbed it from you anymore.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 5: One of the most uncomfortable scenes was when we were
Speaker 5: standing at the bar. It was at the first episode,
Speaker 5: standing at the bar, and we're just like no, like
Speaker 5: forehead to forehead.
Speaker 1: And you've got like your hand on his chest and
Speaker 1: it's it's so we're in the makeout poetry bar.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 4: Some of the romantic displays of like p d A
Speaker 4: that that we chose on the show.
Speaker 3: World trafficked and PDA is like business wow, And I
Speaker 3: don't think we thought.
Speaker 2: Anything like it was just normal.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Tony, I don't want to take up any more
Speaker 4: of your time. Thank you for popping in to make
Speaker 4: a surprise my pleasure.
Speaker 9: You guys look fantastic. You're doing great. It was Thank
Speaker 9: you so much for inviting me to be on Thank you.
Speaker 2: Want to see you in Kansas City. In Kansas City
Speaker 2: on August six. We'll see you there, Tony. We love you.
Speaker 6: That was so cute.
Speaker 2: I love that we.
Speaker 4: Wanted to have a little bit of a surprise for you.
Speaker 6: And where does Where does Tony live?
Speaker 2: Chicago is in Chicago the next Thursday.
Speaker 1: We were so able to anticipate your responses and our
Speaker 1: responses that he actually taped that a week ago.
Speaker 6: Amazing. Gosh.
Speaker 4: Okay, So looking back now, nearly thirty years later, we
Speaker 4: are I mean, we're approaching the thirtieth anniversary of the
Speaker 4: first season, so you would have been just next year. Yeah,
Speaker 4: twenty nine years for you. Looking back, how do you
Speaker 4: feel about your time on Boy Meets World.
Speaker 6: Oh, it's definitely, you know, I mean I love that
Speaker 6: I was on that show, and even you know, because
Speaker 6: it's a kids show and it was clean.
Speaker 2: It was good, it was.
Speaker 5: Fun, it was sweet, and you know, I just had
Speaker 5: a great experience of it. You know when I tell kids,
Speaker 5: like I said, you know when I was on that show,
Speaker 5: it's just everyone thinks very highly of that show because
Speaker 5: you guys were also so professional. It's like young ages
Speaker 5: and you know, just very professional, very sweet, very giving
Speaker 5: as actors. I mean, it's great to work with child
Speaker 5: actors back then and just know what they're doing, and
Speaker 5: you know, you just did and you just all had fun,
Speaker 5: which was great because some sets are not so fun.
Speaker 6: I remember that set being really fun. We were all
Speaker 6: laughing a lot. You guys were so close, and yeah,
Speaker 6: it was just it was just always a great, great feeling.
Speaker 5: It's always good to look back on a show and go,
Speaker 5: oh my god, that was a great experience. Definitely people
Speaker 5: that I was on it, because also it's still a
Speaker 5: big show today.
Speaker 1: Well.
Speaker 4: One of the most favorite things we have found doing
Speaker 4: this Rewatch podcast is how much of an appreciation it
Speaker 4: has brought to us about all of you, the adult
Speaker 4: actors we worked with, because we were honestly not really
Speaker 4: paying that much attention to the adult storylines, whether it's
Speaker 4: because we were in the school room or because.
Speaker 2: Were if it was you and Tony in the scene,
Speaker 2: we wouldn't.
Speaker 4: Be unless it was run through, and which case we'd
Speaker 4: see it that one time for run through and then
Speaker 4: we'd be into notes and getting, you know, into the
Speaker 4: next stuff. So being able to watch the show now
Speaker 4: as adults ourselves who are even significantly older than you
Speaker 4: guys were when you were on the show, it has
Speaker 4: it has really just been like, Wow, we were surrounded
Speaker 4: by such talent and you are one of the people
Speaker 4: that we were just mesmerized by watching the show.
Speaker 6: So oh you're I mean, when I was watching it,
Speaker 6: I was like, I really didn't too much.
Speaker 8: I mean, I I was a little.
Speaker 6: Embarrassed it's like I had like little lines here and there.
Speaker 4: But but that is it is true that they could
Speaker 4: have given you more and they they didn't.
Speaker 2: You were you were Your.
Speaker 4: Character was a little limited, but what you were able
Speaker 4: to do with it, you left such a mark, like
Speaker 4: you are memorable. Yes, you are memorable, your dynamic, you're
Speaker 4: fun to watch, even though they didn't really give you
Speaker 4: that much great stuff, but you really really make the
Speaker 4: most of it, and you stand out.
Speaker 2: And it's and it was so.
Speaker 1: Important for the storyline of of where you know, uh,
Speaker 1: it got Tony to Sean.
Speaker 2: It got it got Tony. That's what I mean.
Speaker 1: That became huge, hugely important because you were the catalyst
Speaker 1: for mister Turner realizing he wanted something in his life.
Speaker 1: He didn't know what it was, but wanted something, which
Speaker 1: then led us to the entire Sean Turner storyline, which
Speaker 1: was a huge story point for season three. So, I mean,
Speaker 1: you say you didn't have a lot to do, and
Speaker 1: you didn't, and they could have used you more, but
Speaker 1: I mean without your character, it wouldn't have gotten us
Speaker 1: there in such a natural way.
Speaker 2: It really was a great kind of transition. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 6: I was just like it's like, okay, bye, you're not
Speaker 6: going to be a bye.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you're out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do.
Speaker 2: I hate to do this, though, I absolutely hate to
Speaker 2: do this.
Speaker 4: I don't think you do.
Speaker 8: I do.
Speaker 1: I do?
Speaker 2: Actually, I don't think you know I do do?
Speaker 1: What what? The brand Modellis International, the company that sells
Speaker 1: Trident gum, has explained the rapper is not meant for
Speaker 1: human consumption, so you're not supposed to let you're not
Speaker 1: supposed to eat the try, the tried and wrapper.
Speaker 2: I hate, after all these years.
Speaker 6: To have there's ink on it as well. I mean,
Speaker 6: there's ink.
Speaker 2: Did anybody really enjoy doing that?
Speaker 6: Though?
Speaker 2: I mean we thought we all did it once we
Speaker 2: heard you could. It was a party trick.
Speaker 4: It was great, but that it does make the gum unenjoyable,
Speaker 4: so you don't actually keep doing.
Speaker 1: It, right, It turns out that not only was the
Speaker 1: gum unenjoyable, but it's also probably poisonous to us.
Speaker 6: So yeah, well we're all still here.
Speaker 2: We managed to make Maybe that's why no one's aging.
Speaker 2: It's all. I mean, Will does have a tail, and
Speaker 2: we have been wondering where that came from. But I
Speaker 2: do it's vestigial. It's fine. Well, Darlene, thank you so
Speaker 2: much for being here. We really appreciate it. It was
Speaker 2: great to catch up with you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's so funny because I was on a retreat
Speaker 5: last summer and the girl that I met, Christine, she
Speaker 5: lives in Massachusetts, and she.
Speaker 6: Just happened to text me. She goes, I'm listening to.
Speaker 5: This podcast by Boy Meets World and all that, and
Speaker 5: I was like, oh really, and so I love to
Speaker 5: chime in.
Speaker 6: So yeah, she's so happy that I'm coming up. There's
Speaker 6: so much I can't wait to listen to it.
Speaker 1: We're we're finally, at some point in the in the
Speaker 1: near future, going to be doing a party for everybody
Speaker 1: we want to, like a bit like.
Speaker 4: Really big, everybody we have contact information for, and even
Speaker 4: people we don't, but we're going to try to find
Speaker 4: We're going to try to do something maybe at Writer's house.
Speaker 4: I think probably the easiest way to plan it and
Speaker 4: giving everybody enough time is like to send out a
Speaker 4: save the date and do it sometime at the early
Speaker 4: part of next year, so we will be in touch
Speaker 4: with you and it'll be a big Pleas.
Speaker 6: For inviting me into the family. Thank you are you
Speaker 6: guys all with Greg. So happy to be here and
Speaker 6: thanks so much for having me.
Speaker 4: So good to see you just see so hopefully bye
Speaker 4: bye bye bye. Well that was fun and it was
Speaker 4: fun to have a mister Tony Quinn pop in and
Speaker 4: do a little surprise did you guys? Did you guys?
Speaker 4: Like all the Back to the Future talk, I'd.
Speaker 2: Never heard the.
Speaker 3: Horrible and I want to them with the cranes like
Speaker 3: I knew that that's till I did it. Like I've
Speaker 3: definitely seen some behind the scenes footage, but I never
Speaker 3: heard the injury story. That's that's a bummer.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: I want to be on a set like that once
Speaker 1: in my life. I don't need lines. I will be
Speaker 1: a background. Just a huge, huge movie like a star
Speaker 1: back to the Future where you're on you know the
Speaker 1: best Now it's just like it was just a bunch
Speaker 1: of Tom Cruise movie and then it's all practical. Oh man,
Speaker 1: I would do that in two seconds. I would hold
Speaker 1: his motorcycle and just to be here, you go, mister Cruz.
Speaker 1: That's all I need to do that a big movie star.
Speaker 3: Like, Yeah, I've always wanted to be on the you know,
Speaker 3: I I think I told you guys that I was
Speaker 3: really close to getting apart and hook like the movie
Speaker 3: because they built a whole pirate ship.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was like they took over the stage.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: It's like back in the day when they would just
Speaker 3: build everything. Oh my god, and like I never got
Speaker 3: to do that, you know. But also like I love
Speaker 3: how she's like we were shooting for two months. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 3: on those big things, especially back in the day, you
Speaker 3: would spend like all day on one eighth of the page,
Speaker 3: like one eighth of a page in the script, and
Speaker 3: you are just getting so much coverage and everything takes
Speaker 3: so much preparation and like that it must be exhausting
Speaker 3: in its own way.
Speaker 1: Do you know the original time Machine was a refrigerator. Yeah,
Speaker 1: in the original draft that talk about change. You're breaking
Speaker 1: in the break into three rather than like getting to
Speaker 1: the they had to like break into a.
Speaker 2: A nuclear power plant.
Speaker 1: They didn't.
Speaker 3: They didn't come up with a giggawatts thing until later,
Speaker 3: but yeah, so originally it was like them just the
Speaker 3: whole third act was then breaking into a power plant
Speaker 3: to like get material.
Speaker 1: The first Back to the Future is perfect, It's a
Speaker 1: perfect script. It's perfect as a film. There's nothing wrong
Speaker 1: with it. It's so amazing.
Speaker 2: I teach it. I teach it.
Speaker 3: It's like my fourth lectures back to the Future. It's
Speaker 3: it's like, it's like so fundamental screenwriting. Every single you know,
Speaker 3: talk about set up and pay off, every single line
Speaker 3: of dialogue, every single shot pays.
Speaker 2: Off, pays off.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's echo. It's like, yeah, it's the platonic
Speaker 3: ideal of set up and pay off. It's just me,
Speaker 3: Oh god, it's such a good movie. Yeah, okay, Well, thank.
