Speaker 1: Call It What It Is with Jessica Capshaw and Camille Luddington,
Speaker 1: an iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 2: Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello Call It crew, and welcome to
Speaker 2: another episode of Follow What It Is?
Speaker 3: A fan Q and a.
Speaker 2: A thank you and yes, we had so much fun
Speaker 2: with the last one.
Speaker 3: We're like, we're gonna find the questions, and the questions
Speaker 3: always lead into some random story they do.
Speaker 1: The first question is from Maddie, which is how do
Speaker 1: you both deal with burnout from long days on set?
Speaker 2: Good question?
Speaker 3: You wait, you you just.
Speaker 4: You know what.
Speaker 1: I just always feel like it was I only got
Speaker 1: wound up, sad, overwhelmed or mad when UH like it
Speaker 1: changed drastically, Like you always know it's gonna change.
Speaker 3: But I always like to know my race.
Speaker 1: I always say this about everything, really, like tell me
Speaker 1: what to expect, where are my mile markers?
Speaker 3: Where am I in it?
Speaker 1: But if all of a sudden, I think I'm like
Speaker 1: a day away from being done, Like I think I've
Speaker 1: been working, you know, every single day, and tomorrow is
Speaker 1: my last day, and I'm already thinking about all the
Speaker 1: things I'm gonna do on my day off.
Speaker 3: And they come in and they're like, ooh, I'm so sorry,
Speaker 3: but a set got changed.
Speaker 1: It's not ready, and so now we have to switch
Speaker 1: the scenes and you're in all day tomorrow. That's what
Speaker 1: I'm like a toddler. I start melting, I fall apart,
Speaker 1: I'm on the ground. There's some kicking and screaming and crying.
Speaker 3: That this has happened.
Speaker 2: I think that I think that this we run into
Speaker 2: the burnout on Grays and Nani when we're in standalone episodes,
Speaker 2: because those are focused. Saying that praise made me like,
Speaker 2: I know, but it's and it's a catch twenty two
Speaker 2: because if they're always excited, if you're if you're your
Speaker 2: character is a focus of it, it's very exciting. However,
Speaker 2: we were in every it's very fun. But you're in
Speaker 2: every single day, it's a lot of work. I think
Speaker 2: that our I think that how we deal with burnout,
Speaker 2: honestly is like forcing myself to like advocate for myself
Speaker 2: on the weekends and be like you guys, I literally
Speaker 2: have to check out for the day. I just need
Speaker 2: like a morning to myself, go get my coffee whatever
Speaker 2: it is, and do that because I can't just there's
Speaker 2: no there's no part of you that just goes and
Speaker 2: goes and goes and goes.
Speaker 3: No, no, I remember a time.
Speaker 1: Do you remember when we were doing the standalone episode
Speaker 1: that was the spooky prison episode.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, you were pregnant. For God's sake, I know.
Speaker 3: It's when I realized it's fine.
Speaker 1: I just want to get to this part because it
Speaker 1: was actually very very sweet, very kind of you. You
Speaker 1: were pregnant, so you didn't yet have children. Obviously, well
Speaker 1: not for everybody, for some people. Most people were just me.
Speaker 1: I celebrate the Halloween day for my children, like I
Speaker 1: don't get personal pleasure from it. And one of the
Speaker 1: one of the producers came to us and was like,
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna have to work on Halloween.
Speaker 3: And I was like, please, don't make it me. I've
Speaker 3: got three kids, and you were like, I don't have
Speaker 3: a kid yet.
Speaker 2: I'll take what the Yeah? And you worked on Halloween,
Speaker 2: are you?
Speaker 4: Dad?
Speaker 2: And you know what I did that bring that story
Speaker 2: up all the time, because when I try and do
Speaker 2: get Halloween off with the kids, I'm always like, let
Speaker 2: me just tell you a little story. But when I
Speaker 2: was childless and I wooved every Halloween night, and now's
Speaker 2: my time, I use it.
Speaker 1: I know I would go, I really would hat in
Speaker 1: hand crying, but you have it's birthdays and Halloween, and
Speaker 1: then it became Christmas shows and I know it's very hard.
Speaker 2: It's very hard. Tracy wants to know, how do you
Speaker 2: feel about Joe and then being together?
Speaker 3: I feel great, your look super happy. Yeah they're cute together.
Speaker 3: I like your vibes. Yeah cute, You're cute.
Speaker 2: He's cute. Love it and demure.
Speaker 1: Maddie wrote in and she said, came Illa, what was
Speaker 1: the most difficult Joe scene for you to shoot and
Speaker 1: how did you prepare for it.
Speaker 2: The most difficult scene for me to shoot was all
Speaker 2: of the scenes with my mom, just because it had
Speaker 2: been a long time coming on the show and felt
Speaker 2: very emotional, and I prepared for it. What was helpful
Speaker 2: is I had never worked with the actress before, so
Speaker 2: it really did feel like meeting a new person and
Speaker 2: kind of like that just sounds so like actory listening
Speaker 2: and responding. I just came into it like very emotional
Speaker 2: to begin with, because I felt like, you know, emotional
Speaker 2: for Joe, and then the actress was so great that
Speaker 2: it was very easy just to kind of see where
Speaker 2: those scenes took us.
Speaker 3: Who played your mom.
Speaker 2: Michelle Forbes played my mom. Oh, okay, what are both
Speaker 2: of your favorite friendships on the show. I think Christina
Speaker 2: and Meredith.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2: That has to be. Although I really did like you
Speaker 2: and Sarah had some really funny Arizona and April had
Speaker 2: some great moments together towards the end. They should have
Speaker 2: started that friendship off like like earlier, because it was
Speaker 2: such an odd ball. You're like the odd odd couple
Speaker 2: together a little bit.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, we were.
Speaker 1: We were definitely an odd couple. But it worked and
Speaker 1: it ended up they ended up giving us a lot
Speaker 1: of comedy. I thought it was very funny. There was
Speaker 1: a moment where I think, truly they were they were
Speaker 1: just they were having fun, and I think that, yeah,
Speaker 1: they were trying to figure out what Arizona was going
Speaker 1: to do, and she was dating again and she became
Speaker 1: good friends and the chief.
Speaker 3: Became her wingman. So it was like Jim Pickens and I.
Speaker 2: No, I was literally about to say Jim Pickens and
Speaker 2: you were so did he go to like a gay
Speaker 2: bar with Arizona? And I was like, yes, Oh my god,
Speaker 2: more of that hilarious.
Speaker 3: We've been asked this before.
Speaker 1: Valerie would like to know if you had to choose
Speaker 1: one dead character to bring back to life.
Speaker 2: Who would it be? I said, I I've been saying
Speaker 2: Kyler because I hear that she was just so wonderful
Speaker 2: to work with so selfishly as an actress, Like I
Speaker 2: just one would love to have a seen with Kyler.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I went to the Gracy Abrams concert in the city
Speaker 1: and I posted a picture of Gracie and I and
Speaker 1: I cannot tell you how many people were flipping out
Speaker 1: because they think that she looks like Kyler? Does she
Speaker 1: They think she looks like LEXI.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was all over all over the.
Speaker 2: Comments and everything funny.
Speaker 1: And then she actually sent me a picture of it
Speaker 1: with the comments in it because she's a big Grays fan,
Speaker 1: and she was like, I'm dying.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's really cute. I feel like you
Speaker 2: go to a concert twice a month, every weekend, every weekend.
Speaker 2: That and that I also feel like the rest of
Speaker 2: us leave a concert like normally, like normal people, right,
Speaker 2: Like we have to hit the streets and find a
Speaker 2: car or find our own car, and you get escorted
Speaker 2: back to some sort of magical room with that person's
Speaker 2: just waiting for you and it's so annoying because it's
Speaker 2: never happened to me. In fact, if I have I
Speaker 2: got anywhere near that magical room, they would escorted me.
Speaker 2: God of it would tastes. But you have. I just
Speaker 2: don't understand how that happens to you. It's genuinely annoying.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: In fact, next time you post with somebody new, I'm
Speaker 2: just gonna if there's a dislike button you're getting calms down. No, no,
Speaker 2: unless I'm unless I'm also escorted with you.
Speaker 1: Okay, agree, Yeah, No, jealousy is a green eyed monster, Camilla,
Speaker 1: green eyed monster.
Speaker 2: Okay. Rachel said, do you both have any ritual before
Speaker 2: shooting a scene? Song?
Speaker 3: Playlist, lance, speech, learning my lines, you're learning your life?
Speaker 2: That's my ritual. Well, I have to say, doing certain
Speaker 2: parts of our storylines, did you ever have like a
Speaker 2: song that you would like kind of listen to? Sometimes?
Speaker 2: I had some some I had some tailor's I had,
Speaker 2: for example, I all tell a fandom This. I listened
Speaker 2: to Clean when I was doing the episodes with Paul,
Speaker 2: her husband. It was like the song that just kind
Speaker 2: of got me in this place.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I used to listen. I used to
Speaker 3: after ten years at Grays.
Speaker 1: I think in the very beginning, when I first had
Speaker 1: emotional scenes, I would get so nervous. I was not
Speaker 1: going to be able to cry like you squeeze out
Speaker 1: a tear. I would want to think about all the
Speaker 1: saddest things in the whole world. Yes, this was a
Speaker 1: part of acting class that I was always like, I
Speaker 1: don't get it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And.
Speaker 3: I really worried about it. By the end of my
Speaker 3: time at Grace.
Speaker 1: I think it's like a masterclass in being in having
Speaker 1: your emotions right there and quickly, like you can do it.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can go somewhere on a dime. I mean,
Speaker 1: I really, I really really mean this. The writing, I
Speaker 1: know it's it's really hard when it's not great writing,
Speaker 1: but when you have great writing, you just it's it's easy, peacey.
Speaker 1: I mean it's not easy, but you just you can
Speaker 1: get there so much more easily.
Speaker 2: I guess I have one thing that I do. I
Speaker 2: bet you do the same thing when you and your
Speaker 2: character are in a fight. I don't like to sit
Speaker 2: in the same room as as that actor. I want
Speaker 2: I need us to not like joke between takes if
Speaker 2: it's really serious. Like I need to have that separation
Speaker 2: going into the scene, and then when we're done, I'm
Speaker 2: like good to like shoot the ship that I like
Speaker 2: a little bit of that separation, just to feel that tension.
Speaker 1: Anna, be honest, do either of you think grays can
Speaker 1: sometimes be too dramatic? My instinct is no, I'm being honest, say,
Speaker 1: I think when.
Speaker 3: It's life for death, how can you be too dramatic.
Speaker 2: I think we're ea exactly right, Like we're not shooting
Speaker 2: a show like where we're all out in the farm,
Speaker 2: like we're dealing. We're in hospital. So like the drama
Speaker 2: it is. It is what it is. People are dying,
Speaker 2: people's lives need to be saved. So I feel like
Speaker 2: it lends itself to the show.
Speaker 3: There would be sometimes Meg and I would joke about this.
Speaker 3: There would be sometimes like so you know, when you're
Speaker 3: watching and then it goes to commercial.
Speaker 2: By the way, Meg is our showrunner right now. She's
Speaker 2: an incredible writer. We love her.
Speaker 3: That's the best, the actual best.
Speaker 1: But you would there'd be like an act break or
Speaker 1: there would be like a commercial break, and that scene
Speaker 1: they would always want to have like a lot of
Speaker 1: tension at the end of that scene, and especially if
Speaker 1: you had a line that was like a discovery right,
Speaker 1: like you know, you get a test back and you're like, yeah, whatever.
Speaker 1: And there was this one scene where I think Alex
Speaker 1: was about to do something and my all my only
Speaker 1: words were Alex no.
Speaker 3: But it was meant to be like you, like you
Speaker 3: like in post.
Speaker 2: A long no, like a no yeah.
Speaker 3: But I think it really.
Speaker 1: Should have been done in post, like it shouldn't be
Speaker 1: like me being like no, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: We had to do it like forty five times because
Speaker 3: they kept doing that.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was like no, and then you have to
Speaker 2: cut yourself off slowly like a yeah. That's really hard.
Speaker 2: That isn't that that no is concerning?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so maybe that's a little dramatic. That could be
Speaker 1: dramatic because of those act breaks.
Speaker 2: Amanda, how do you both memories memorize so much medical jargon?
Speaker 2: How long does it take? It can take some time.
Speaker 3: You can take a minute.
Speaker 2: We get a cheat sheet with every episode. We get
Speaker 2: a cheat sheet that tells us exactly what all the
Speaker 2: words mean that are medical and how to say them.
Speaker 2: But even on the day it can be really hard
Speaker 2: because once you introduce in an R scene, all of
Speaker 2: the instruments and then the dance you're doing in the operation.
Speaker 1: It can be tough, yeah, really tough, very hard, and
Speaker 1: I find it pretty much the testuff. It's always about repetition.
Speaker 1: Just I just keep going and going and going, and
Speaker 1: I run lines. I also, I can learn them on
Speaker 1: my own, but they're never really there until I just run.
Speaker 3: It with people. Yeah, until it's on our scenes.
Speaker 1: I like to just have everybody that's working on the scene.
Speaker 1: Those are like we had one of those in the
Speaker 1: episode when I came back. Remember, it was like so
Speaker 1: many little tiny pieces. They're attached to action, and so
Speaker 1: you have to figure out when the line comes and
Speaker 1: what it's in response to, and it's just better to like.
Speaker 3: Do it like multiple, multiple, multiple times.
Speaker 2: I've also had this moment where I've learned I've learned
Speaker 2: some medical jargon, and then when I get in there,
Speaker 2: they're like, actually, that's just the way you stay in England.
Speaker 2: In the US we say it differently, And then it's
Speaker 2: been stuck in my mind that a certain way, and
Speaker 2: it's really hard for me to.
Speaker 3: Pivot reset the factory settings.
Speaker 2: Okay, go.
Speaker 3: Oh well this, I'll do Emily and then you do
Speaker 3: Romero because Romero's for me. I know, well, Emily wants
Speaker 3: to know who was the worst person in a world
Speaker 3: with on set. Oh that Bokey, she.
Speaker 2: Was the worst. I mean, how delicious is bocy to be?
Speaker 2: I mean, real fans know who Bokey is.
Speaker 3: I met a dog named Boky the other day.
Speaker 1: That's cute, and it was it was a lovingly it
Speaker 1: was like an like an adoring Bokey.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to the worst. I think I'm wantul to
Speaker 2: plead the fifth.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna really think about it. Hold on the worst,
Speaker 3: Like I'm wondering what they mean by that, like worst.
Speaker 1: I mean, there were people who could throw temper tantrums,
Speaker 1: but it doesn't feel right to out them.
Speaker 3: Mm hm, Oh you just give, you just give like
Speaker 3: a Kate cap shut.
Speaker 2: I didn't you have a too?
Speaker 1: All right, Well, listen, I just don't want to not
Speaker 1: answer the question, Emily. You deserve an answer. It's not
Speaker 1: about a worst person, but they're definitely.
Speaker 3: People can be difficult because life is nuanced and challenging sometimes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and also we all the truth is, we all
Speaker 2: work really long hours and around each other like a family.
Speaker 2: And oh, I'm sure we've I mean, we all have
Speaker 2: our moments.
Speaker 3: Someone told me that I was actually like a t
Speaker 3: one day at work, and I was.
Speaker 2: Like, oh wait what uh huh? Whooped? Oh my god? Never? Yeah,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, I know you know what he was wrong, Jessica.
Speaker 2: Do people stop you in the streets thinking you're gay?
Speaker 2: In real life?
Speaker 3: Like hit on me?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: How would I know if they thought that I was gay?
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't get hit on by women.
Speaker 2: That cannot be true.
Speaker 3: That I don't get hit on by women. Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't either.
Speaker 3: Actually, I was like, I'm wanting to think we're all
Speaker 3: just getting no.
Speaker 2: But I mean, like, where would I even get hit
Speaker 2: on anymore? Like a rauph's in the cheese aisle?
Speaker 3: No, definitely not.
Speaker 2: I mean so obvious. I have kids too.
Speaker 3: Carpool line, and if you're getting hit on there, you're
Speaker 3: in trouble.
Speaker 2: I just don't even get hit on at all anymore
Speaker 2: by anybody. Never. I mean, I'm racking my brain. I mean,
Speaker 2: you should see me out in the wild. I'm like
Speaker 2: a will to beast.
Speaker 3: I've been out with I've been with you out the world.
Speaker 3: You're not.
Speaker 2: You've seen some will to best.
Speaker 3: I've seen some outfits. That's for sure.
Speaker 1: You're out like it's not a little visual pollution happening,
Speaker 1: all right, right, right.
Speaker 2: Realant, So your answer is no, oh, no.
Speaker 1: No, I don't. I imagine maybe, well, I imagine a
Speaker 1: lot of people think that I am from the show,
Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't have people stopping me in
Speaker 1: the streets. I hear incredible, incredible stories about people who
Speaker 1: share space in Arizona story or or that she was
Speaker 1: helpful in some way for them watching the show.
Speaker 3: But no, never, never hit on by women, And.
Speaker 2: Never they're not like sliding their number to you. No,
Speaker 2: no number slide. I know, God, feel me.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not trying. I don't start inviting that in though.
Speaker 2: I don't mind. Everybody likes to get hit on a
Speaker 2: little bit, you know, give me a number slide, give
Speaker 2: me a whoo woo. I'm not gonna call it, but like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, while I'm out in that, can I cheese
Speaker 2: asle give me?
Speaker 3: I never said that.
Speaker 1: It's like five five five five five five five five
Speaker 1: five five five yeah, And.
Speaker 2: I'm like wow, thanks, And just so I can go
Speaker 2: home and show it to Matt, I'm like I got this.
Speaker 2: See I am still hot.
Speaker 1: See I told you it was lock me down, Yeah,
Speaker 1: lock me down.
Speaker 2: I think we should jump around because I feel like
Speaker 2: we're not going to get to everything, and I think
Speaker 2: we need to jump around.
Speaker 3: Well, it's doing real quicker.
Speaker 1: Too, it's nineteen minutes. Do you do you watch the
Speaker 1: episodes you're in.
Speaker 3: I don't not anymore. Really.
Speaker 2: I did in the beginning because I literally wanted to
Speaker 2: see how like if I was doing an okay job.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. It's like
Speaker 3: proof of life.
Speaker 2: And now I feel like I've lived it. And the
Speaker 2: truth is is that sometimes I find it a little
Speaker 2: bit confusing to like go back and be in that
Speaker 2: spot when we're many episodes ahead in a new storyline.
Speaker 2: I think, though, at some point I'm going to go
Speaker 2: back to the early years and like start over.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: I did go back with one of my daughters, and
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my gosh, that's my voice so high.
Speaker 2: Why do I look like that? I know, but I
Speaker 2: was like twenty seven or something when I joined the show,
Speaker 2: and it is when you're like, oh, that's what I
Speaker 2: looked like without all these fine lines and eyebags, it's
Speaker 2: a little bit depressing.
Speaker 1: No, I actually don't. I don't actually see something crazy.
Speaker 1: I prefer now really I yeah, fine one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're like a fine one.
Speaker 1: How hard was it playing Joe when she was depressed?
Speaker 1: Did it bleed into your real life after filling those scenes?
Speaker 2: I definitely feel like I can't. It was hard to
Speaker 2: shake off those seasons where you'recharacter is real. You probably
Speaker 2: had this with like with a Cali and Arizona when
Speaker 2: they're going through that divorce.
Speaker 3: It was just so it's like a kick in the
Speaker 3: teeth every day.
Speaker 2: It really is, and it does kind of I have
Speaker 2: to say, it kind of does affect your mood. I
Speaker 2: wish it was better at leaving it on set, but
Speaker 2: sometimes it really is hard. And the truth is is
Speaker 2: that we love our characters. You love Arizona, I love
Speaker 2: Joe like I'm team Joe. I always say this, And
Speaker 2: so when she's going through it, like yeah, I kind
Speaker 2: of it's kind of like my buddy's going through it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Yeah, this.
Speaker 2: Is a good one. Emily f said, if Joe and
Speaker 2: Arizona were a piece of kitchen equipment, what would they
Speaker 2: be and why pork spatula a kitchen aid mixer oh,
Speaker 2: I feel like Joe would be like a sauce pen
Speaker 2: that has like a bunch of grease still on it
Speaker 2: and like crust, because she's.
Speaker 3: Kind of not how I see you. Okay, but Joe
Speaker 3: krusty saucepan.
Speaker 2: She's been through it. She's seen some and that saucepan
Speaker 2: to me is like I've seen some stuff.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, okay, okay, yeah, like you're proud of that crust.
Speaker 2: You're so shiny. Whatever Arizona is is like fresh out
Speaker 2: the packet.
Speaker 1: Well, I can think it shiny maybe like one of
Speaker 1: those little like espresso machines exactly.
Speaker 2: That's the part that's so annoying. Yes, because like Arizona
Speaker 2: is a little peppy too. It has to be an
Speaker 2: especial and like super shiny, all the pods set up neatly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good one. I like that, Okay, a
Speaker 3: little espresso.
Speaker 1: How do you handle being an actress when you just
Speaker 1: aren't feeling yourself that day but you need to perform?
Speaker 2: Well, Luckily, if I'm not feeling myself that day, it
Speaker 2: helps have to be somebody else. I'm pretty good at.
Speaker 2: I think you are too. About jumping in Yeah, you compartmentalize. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you do.
Speaker 4: You have to because that's kind of our draw, because
Speaker 4: the show must, the show must go on. No, I'm
Speaker 4: supposed to say the show must go on. Remember Shakespeare
Speaker 4: in Love on their.
Speaker 1: Backstage and he's like, oh, yeah, the show must, and
Speaker 1: the other guy goes, go on, go on.
Speaker 2: I love Shakespeare in Love. Oh my god, I know
Speaker 2: I do too. I watched it like I had the VHS,
Speaker 2: and I watched it almost every day for a while,
Speaker 2: like I was really weirdly obsessed with it. It's very joyous,
Speaker 2: I know, really, no, and he was so he was
Speaker 2: hot as Shakespeare.
Speaker 3: Oh just the fines ooh not a Handmaid's Tale.
Speaker 2: Not handmaids No, get out of here, get out of here, fines.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, thank you God, thank you?
Speaker 2: All right. Emma wrote, where would Joe in Arizona's Dream
Speaker 2: vacation be? Okay?
Speaker 1: I see, like maybe I'm just being crazy here, but
Speaker 1: I could see Joe and Arizona.
Speaker 3: I mean, can we see them at Disneyland Orlando? Baby?
Speaker 3: Oh my god?
Speaker 2: Please? If that's okay, If we're going there, then what's
Speaker 2: our favorite ride? I feel like Joe love the Little Mermaid.
Speaker 2: There's something about it.
Speaker 3: Oh, I agree with that. I agree with that. I
Speaker 3: think I'm a small world kind of girl.
Speaker 2: Seriously, It's like literally the most annoying ride and the
Speaker 2: most boring.
Speaker 1: There's something about all the different cultures and I don't know,
Speaker 1: I've always had a saucepot.
Speaker 2: It's a legit, like fifteen minute ride.
Speaker 3: Plus I go in the summer and it's the only
Speaker 3: place that's cool. It's always hot and I get to
Speaker 3: go in there.
Speaker 2: And really, because I feel like, I mean, this is
Speaker 2: this is in the La Once. I don't know if
Speaker 2: this is in I mean the California one, and I'm
Speaker 2: not sure if it's in Florida, but like I can
Speaker 2: see Arizona full on dippity boot boutique getting your hair
Speaker 2: sprayed with glitter a crown. Oh yeah, for.
Speaker 3: Sure, sure that's the Braid's for sure the braids.
Speaker 2: One hundred percent. Yep.
Speaker 3: I love it, Okay.
Speaker 1: Marcy wants to know how did the surge scenes work.
Speaker 1: Does it take longer to shoot? Ye, Marcy, it takes
Speaker 1: longer to shoot it, sure does.
Speaker 2: It takes a really long time.
Speaker 1: I feel like in the O R scenes, I'm like
Speaker 1: bargaining with God literally and figuratively, I'm like talking to
Speaker 1: the first a d I'm talking to the director. I
Speaker 1: always because I like information. I'm always like, so what's
Speaker 1: your plan? And like are we gonna do this side
Speaker 1: first or you gonna do that side? But I mean
Speaker 1: the answer is it takes a long time.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be what it is exactly a lot of
Speaker 2: things to shoot. Yeah, and you have to remember, like
Speaker 2: there's some scenes where like blood spills everywhere, then we
Speaker 2: have to take it again, so now that blood has
Speaker 2: to be really soaked ub again. Everyone has to have
Speaker 2: fresh scrub zone. There's moments like that that just like
Speaker 2: the minutes start to add up on a on an
Speaker 2: our day. Okay, who is your dream guest on the
Speaker 2: show that hasn't already been on? I mean we always
Speaker 2: say Taylor because she does love the show. But if
Speaker 2: I didn't have to go with my immediate tailor answer,
Speaker 2: always maybe Jennifer Coolidge. She's so funny, like as a patient,
Speaker 2: Oh my god, yeah.
Speaker 3: She'd be a great Yeah.
Speaker 1: Nicholas would like to know have you ever had to
Speaker 1: kiss anyone on the show and they had sticky breath?
Speaker 3: Never for me, as a.
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, No, ways, like the most respectful. I mean, like,
Speaker 1: I don't think so listening Altoyd breath.
Speaker 2: I think actors for the most part are really conscious
Speaker 2: of not wanting to be disgusting if possible. Like I
Speaker 2: have yet to have someone like down a tuna fish
Speaker 2: sandwich and then go in for a guess I hear
Speaker 2: it happens.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you know what's funny. One of my
Speaker 1: first kissing scenes ever in my career, I was legit nervous,
Speaker 1: Like I was absolutely like showing nervous. I was apparently nervous.
Speaker 1: It was I was nervous leading like the days leading
Speaker 1: up to the scene.
Speaker 3: I was just nervous, nervous, nerves.
Speaker 1: And he was a little bit more experienced, he was
Speaker 1: a little bit older, and he was very kind, but
Speaker 1: he was a man of few words. And I just
Speaker 1: really didn't I just I didn't know him that well,
Speaker 1: and I just didn't feel all that comfortable and I
Speaker 1: just didn't know. And that day we were finishing up
Speaker 1: the scene that was right before the kissing scene, and
Speaker 1: he had a pa bring to him on set and
Speaker 1: announce that he was bringing him and in and out
Speaker 1: burger animal style with raw onions.
Speaker 2: Animal But I explained to people that don't know what
Speaker 2: in and out is, what animal style is.
Speaker 1: In and out is a cheeseburger and fry place, and
Speaker 1: animal style it has every single thing in the kitchen
Speaker 1: put on the cheeseburger. So he gets this said burger
Speaker 1: with everything on it and raw onions, and I probably
Speaker 1: looked like I was.
Speaker 3: Going to die.
Speaker 2: I'm going to like this is animals time, you guys,
Speaker 2: that is that's what she was making out with.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's so good. Ross.
Speaker 1: Well, but here's here's the kick the punch line. It
Speaker 1: turns out he was a man that had a good
Speaker 1: sense of humor because my face looked like terror and
Speaker 1: horror but I didn't know it. And then he started
Speaker 1: laughing really hard, oh, because.
Speaker 3: He knew I was nervous, so he was like trying
Speaker 3: to like break the break that ten yeah, yeah, breakdown,
Speaker 3: break down me.
Speaker 2: I don't know what that Honestly, that would have made
Speaker 2: me laugh like this, Like I went in be super
Speaker 2: impressed by the joke. I'll be honest, i'dn't been like, nah,
Speaker 2: I just hate you a little bit. Okay, Jamison, do
Speaker 2: you think you two would actually be friends with your characters?
Speaker 2: In real life for sure, that's easy for Arizona. Joe.
Speaker 3: Well, Arizona would be friends with Joe, and I would
Speaker 3: be friends with Joe. So I think you would be
Speaker 3: friends with Joe.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I Joe's tricky though, because I I yes,
Speaker 2: I would be Yes, I'd be friends with Joe, except
Speaker 2: I feel like she's super cagey, So I think it'd
Speaker 2: be very hard to like get in deep with someone
Speaker 2: like Joe. That's my opinion. She'ld be a very cagy person.
Speaker 2: I think once you're in the in crowd. Yes, it's
Speaker 2: a good question, though I have never been asked that
Speaker 2: question in a million trillion years. Good question, love it,
Speaker 2: call it crew, Okay, Astrad. Have either of you ever
Speaker 2: gotten uncontrollable laughter on set?
Speaker 1: Yesska, first hello, it's like hello, Yeah, well, if it's.
Speaker 3: You and I, even the last time I was there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think people don't understand that when you have
Speaker 2: uncontrollable laughter filming a scene, the pressure to not laugh
Speaker 2: because you know that you're wasting time and the crew
Speaker 2: wants to go home, and you can't control it. Truly,
Speaker 2: it makes you start to get Really it actually gives
Speaker 2: you anxiety and the more anxiety I get over, like,
Speaker 2: do not get out, don't laugh, the more I want
Speaker 2: to laugh, which is not good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't think it's so cute funny, No.
Speaker 2: Which makes it worse. It makes it more away like funny,
Speaker 2: but like that nervous laughter of course.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do this last one and this is Stephen
Speaker 1: and I think that this is a good one to
Speaker 1: end on.
Speaker 3: Don't judge me, but is this shot in a real hospital?
Speaker 2: How does it work?
Speaker 4: Steve?
Speaker 1: And I'm not judging you, And you know what, there
Speaker 1: have been times we've been in real hospitals.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the actual hospital, our home hospital is a set.
Speaker 2: But it does look like a hospital. That was really
Speaker 2: shocking to me. I walked in and there are corridors
Speaker 2: and corridors, corridors and patient rooms and you can go
Speaker 2: from the er back into a certain area that's a reception.
Speaker 2: So it feels very much like a real hospital. But yes,
Speaker 2: when you see us filming on that very famous walkway,
Speaker 2: we haven't done it in a long time. But that
Speaker 2: was all that's that was all real hospital.
Speaker 3: The most like the shooter episode when Derek gets shot,
Speaker 3: that was real. That was a real hospital.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm talking about that like that, what
Speaker 2: do they call it the walkway? Yeah, but it was
Speaker 2: all glass and it's all glass, yeah it was.
Speaker 1: It is in the valley, and we would always work
Speaker 1: there on Sundays.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you couldn't work through during the week.
Speaker 2: Yes, I forget the reason why. All right, love it
Speaker 2: another Q and A session.
Speaker 3: So much fun. I'm a little stroll down memory lane.
Speaker 2: I too love it, I know because it gets me
Speaker 2: thinking too. And they ask such good questions that I
Speaker 2: don't get asked all the time. Yeah, you would think,
Speaker 2: after all these years we've been asked everything, but nope,
Speaker 2: they call it crew coming through.
Speaker 3: I love it, all right, you want to call it
Speaker 2: Let's call this the end of the episode.
