Speaker 1: the Red Carpet. Did you do interviews on the Red Carpet? No?
Speaker 1: I just watched you watch me, so yeah, that's her
Speaker 1: first one. So I have to admit. Okay, So I
Speaker 1: don't know if everyone listened to the podcast last week. Literally,
Speaker 1: Scott starts the podcast and the first thing I say is, man,
Speaker 1: they really had this like you shot of this random
Speaker 1: lady on the opening scene, and I knew you were
Speaker 1: in an episode, but I had no idea that was you.
Speaker 1: And Scott's like, that's my wife, that's my wife. Ay,
Speaker 1: they freaked out. It was a funny moment. It was
Speaker 1: It almost was so funny. It seemed like fate, like
Speaker 1: we weren't. I had no idea that was you. But
Speaker 1: that episode, Look, Jackie's gonna show us that you. It
Speaker 1: really starts right prominently on you. There you go, oh
Speaker 1: my god, have you seen this episode lately? No, not lately.
Speaker 1: There It is all right, and I think your character
Speaker 1: was Chrissy. All right, So so the ladies she's telling you,
Speaker 1: they're really really surprised. Tell us how you got this role.
Speaker 1: Tell us the story. Well, um, Scott called me one
Speaker 1: day and he said, you're not gonna believe this, but
Speaker 1: Amy wrote apart for you and you have to have
Speaker 1: a table read. That is so cool. No way, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was so excited. Have you always been into acting,
Speaker 1: Like was that something you wanted to do? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: definitely tell him We met, tell him how we met? Yeah,
Speaker 1: and had you done jobs before this? Yeah? Tells everything. Well,
Speaker 1: I was studying and I'd done theater before, and I
Speaker 1: really wanted to do like a TV gig, but you know,
Speaker 1: it's really hard, right, so um, And then all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, Scott called me and said they wrote apart
Speaker 1: for you because I had audition. I had auditioned to
Speaker 1: be on Gilmore Girls before, for different parts. Oh, and
Speaker 1: didn't get it. Yeah, it was. It wasn't really a
Speaker 1: good fit because they want they were looking for like
Speaker 1: a Texas girl or somebody with a Southern accent. And
Speaker 1: I tried my best. But at the time you were
Speaker 1: not married. You were dating. Yes, okay, so, and you
Speaker 1: forgive me if I asked too many personal questions. But
Speaker 1: when you started dating Scott, was he Luke or did
Speaker 1: you date him before he got the job on Gilmore Girls?
Speaker 1: It was before, okay? So no, i'd gotten the pilot, No,
Speaker 1: but I hadn't. I hadn't shot it yet. So, oh
Speaker 1: my god. So you guys have really ridden this ride.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you say it together. You've been
Speaker 1: together really throughout his entire trade trajectory, coming famous. Yes,
Speaker 1: she's witnessed the whole ugly episode. Yes, I'm gonna ask
Speaker 1: like a thousand questions, but do you remember like a
Speaker 1: moment going all of a sudden, my boyfriend is famous.
Speaker 1: I do, Yeah, we tell us. I remember we were
Speaker 1: actually going somewhere. We were at the airport and we
Speaker 1: were walking over to our what's it called, to our terminal,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, this whole big group
Speaker 1: of soccer girls starts running down the hall and they
Speaker 1: mobbed him, and they all wanted pictures with him and
Speaker 1: pushed me aside taking pictures with the soccer players. I
Speaker 1: remember that. Yeah, the timing is so sort of fascinating
Speaker 1: because you really experienced it together. M Yeah, yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, the first part of the ride was, you know,
Speaker 1: going to all those Warner Brothers parties, going to Amy's
Speaker 1: Christmas party, and then going to all those Warner Brothers parties.
Speaker 1: There was always a limo coming to pick us up.
Speaker 1: There was always a Warner Brothers party, There was always
Speaker 1: at this party. It was just kind of a it
Speaker 1: was wild, and what was that like for you? It
Speaker 1: was fun, It was very exciting. I can imagine nice
Speaker 1: in a way that you met before, because you never
Speaker 1: Scott had to wonder like, oh did she just like Luke,
Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? Like I could happen
Speaker 1: she knew you before and was already in the picture
Speaker 1: as this was getting bigger and bigger. You know, it
Speaker 1: was weird. Uh. We we eventually got invited to a
Speaker 1: very exclusive Malibu party, right uh. And it was a fundraiser,
Speaker 1: so Jackson Brown was playing on there was a stage
Speaker 1: there on this huge lawn and it blew my mind
Speaker 1: because Jackson Brown. But there were all kinds of celebrities
Speaker 1: there and I felt really out of place. But I
Speaker 1: knew the host and he was very gracious with us,
Speaker 1: and he showed me around all his artwork in the
Speaker 1: house and the whole thing, and you know, and then
Speaker 1: we met Pierce Brosnan and Christine pretty much forgot about
Speaker 1: me at that point. Sure that's true. Well maybe I
Speaker 1: forgot about her at that point. I don't know who
Speaker 1: was more in love with them? Oh my good, so good.
Speaker 1: But it was like, you're standing there with Pierce Brason
Speaker 1: and gone, that's Pierce Brason. What's what's right? Do you remember? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I do remember the sparkly eyes, the wonderful hair, the
Speaker 1: whole thing. So when Scott got the part of Luke
Speaker 1: and you watched the pilot when it aired, did you
Speaker 1: immediately think, now, this is this is a really what
Speaker 1: did you think? I don't want to What did you
Speaker 1: think when you watched the pilot? I thought it was
Speaker 1: super cute. I really love the show. It was great,
Speaker 1: and then you get this call to play this part.
Speaker 1: So what was it like being okay? So yeah, tell
Speaker 1: us everything about that, Like, what was it like being
Speaker 1: on his set? Did you guys share a trailer? No?
Speaker 1: I actually got my own trailer, but while I was there,
Speaker 1: I did visit him and his trailer bound chick. Wait,
Speaker 1: so was it and had you been to the set?
Speaker 1: Obviously you you probably had been down to visit. So
Speaker 1: was it different to come now as a working actor
Speaker 1: and did everyone know who you were? Unlike us clowns
Speaker 1: that are like OHO's our random Yeah, it was actually
Speaker 1: super exciting. I remember getting ready that day and getting
Speaker 1: my car and driving down Malholland and Kawanga and Barham
Speaker 1: going over to one of brother's studios. It was just
Speaker 1: like such a magical day. I enjoyed like every single
Speaker 1: second of it. And I didn't want it to end.
Speaker 1: And I got there and I got to my trailer.
Speaker 1: It was I had all my contract laid out and
Speaker 1: then and then I was like, I got all dressed,
Speaker 1: they got me in wardrobe, and I signed the contract.
Speaker 1: And then I was like sitting there like nervous and excited, like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I hope I don't forget my words.
Speaker 1: I just kept going on the words over and over
Speaker 1: and over. Oh my god. It would be added pressure,
Speaker 1: I would think too, because not only are you an actor,
Speaker 1: but you're like my hut, my boyfriend at the time
Speaker 1: is like one of the leads of this show. I
Speaker 1: don't want to be an ass clown and like this up.
Speaker 1: Yeah totally. Yeah. You were in two episodes, right or
Speaker 1: just one? Just that one? Oh yeah yeah yeah. So
Speaker 1: you come back for the movies. Yes, we don't even
Speaker 1: tell us we'll have to be back for that part.
Speaker 1: I want to know what it was like working with
Speaker 1: Miss Patty, because that was your you know, that was
Speaker 1: your scene was with her. She's so much fun. She
Speaker 1: is fun. She really made me feel welcome. She made
Speaker 1: me feel really comfortable, and she was like you got this,
Speaker 1: you know, it's gonna be fine. So and in no
Speaker 1: more fashion, it's sort of a big scene in that
Speaker 1: like your part is important, but it's like everybody had
Speaker 1: to get their part right. For your part that may
Speaker 1: pull her castle where he is lore lies come. There's
Speaker 1: sort of a lot happening. I think maybe that's why
Speaker 1: you stood out to me much when I watched it,
Speaker 1: because it was really like what's going on? And who
Speaker 1: is that? And this is It's like, there's so much
Speaker 1: happening here. Yeah, yeah, there was a lot happening. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was there that day. I was gonna say, because
Speaker 1: you're not in the scene, did you go down? That
Speaker 1: wasn't That was an off day for me. I was
Speaker 1: very nervous and I sort of I sort of prowled
Speaker 1: around and you know, um, I watched a couple of
Speaker 1: takes and I wasn't. I was. I was really pleased
Speaker 1: by what I was seeing through the monitor and all that,
Speaker 1: and so then I left. I said, Okay, I'm not
Speaker 1: needed here and let's just get out of her face
Speaker 1: and let her do her thing. And you know, I
Speaker 1: but I just I wanted to be there in case
Speaker 1: there was some you know, in case she locked up
Speaker 1: or something. Like you know, but right, you want to
Speaker 1: be there in the scene. You're really so cute. It's
Speaker 1: like you're you're noticeable in it. And so I I
Speaker 1: want to know when that episode aired. Do you guys
Speaker 1: remember watching it together, because I don't know if you
Speaker 1: knew when you shot it that like it's literally going
Speaker 1: to open on you. Yeah. I didn't know that that's
Speaker 1: how it was going to be. Did we know that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Because the script says it opens on Miss Patty and Chrissy. Okay,
Speaker 1: and you know, actually that scene was a lot longer.
Speaker 1: I think they maybe shortened it by a page. Oh wow,
Speaker 1: how long has a page? Scott? Like? How many lines
Speaker 1: are on a page? Uh? In a in an Amy
Speaker 1: Dan script, there are several hundred lines. You know. It's like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, would it be a minute in time? Probably? Yeah? No, No, no,
Speaker 1: thirty seconds because they show these were eighty page scripts
Speaker 1: and you had forty minutes of the twenty minutes of commercial,
Speaker 1: so it's actual forty minutes. So it's it's thirty seconds
Speaker 1: a page, which is why I had to go so fast. Okay,
Speaker 1: So now, and I'm sorry to ask so many questions,
Speaker 1: but I mean, how dare you in an interview, I
Speaker 1: mean taking over your show. So here's the things that
Speaker 1: be as as Scott's friends, co workers, but also fans
Speaker 1: want to know, like do you see any of Luke's
Speaker 1: characteristics in Scott or to Scott bring a lot of
Speaker 1: himself into Luke? Um, I have to say that he's
Speaker 1: exactly like Luke. Oh my gosh, we agree. Really, there
Speaker 1: isn't a chance that is not. I'm so much looser
Speaker 1: than that funny girl's funny. You don't think Luke is funny.
Speaker 1: Luke is very funny. He's wrapped really tight. I'm not
Speaker 1: like that you want. We'll be right with you. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, you're going to get over it. Everybody hopes
Speaker 1: Scott also like that's what we want, Like, we don't
Speaker 1: want you to be totally different, like you will have
Speaker 1: some differences, but like we want you to be that guy. Well, okay,
Speaker 1: now now maybe like years later you're a little different,
Speaker 1: But back then you were a lot like Luke. I
Speaker 1: was in character the whole time. Probably do you think
Speaker 1: Scott changed when you had your son? Like did that
Speaker 1: change him as a person a lot? Yeah? Yeah, it
Speaker 1: did softened him a bit. It did yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: found my you know, it's it's a love that you
Speaker 1: don't expect. It's just an earthquake of like, that's somebody.
Speaker 1: I mean, your whole life changes at that moment. It's
Speaker 1: just it's and the cliche is true. It's not about
Speaker 1: you anymore, that's over. It's it's about that little life form,
Speaker 1: that little guy. You know. That's it. And yeah, everything changes,
Speaker 1: everything changes. Whoa it would be It would have been
Speaker 1: cool if we got to see that that sentiment you
Speaker 1: just said in Luke and Laura Lie exactly. That would
Speaker 1: have been something that would have been so amazing to see.
Speaker 1: I mean, they touch on it. I don't want to
Speaker 1: run up for Daniel. They touch on it asy bit
Speaker 1: in the movies, but that is an element of the character.
Speaker 1: I mean, we do a little with Jess and with
Speaker 1: you know which I won't say Daniel sir. Oh god, yeah,
Speaker 1: I won't even say it right now. So okay. So
Speaker 1: my other question is, like for Christine is like, what
Speaker 1: did you think as you know, the show's getting bigger
Speaker 1: and bigger and going on and on, Like you know,
Speaker 1: you date actors and you think, oh who knows, and
Speaker 1: now your boyfriend and soon to be husband has this
Speaker 1: like show that's been on for seven years that he's
Speaker 1: one of the leads on, and it's really your life
Speaker 1: probably changed, like I don't know even like not to
Speaker 1: ask a red question, but you probably have like, well,
Speaker 1: you had baseball money, but not gobs of money, and
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you have this like show
Speaker 1: that's on network TV for seven years. I did not
Speaker 1: have baseball. No. But to Amy's point, like were you
Speaker 1: watching every week? You know, like were you thanks for
Speaker 1: the house? Yeah? Baby, because we started out. Tell him
Speaker 1: about apartment we were in that little studio apartment. Tell
Speaker 1: him about that little student. Oh yes, Scott lived in
Speaker 1: this little studio apartment. It was basically like one giant
Speaker 1: room that was divided into a bedroom, then sort of
Speaker 1: like this living room area, and then an office off
Speaker 1: to the right side, and then it had this little
Speaker 1: bathroom and then a kitchen that was separate from everything.
Speaker 1: And you know, when we first started dating, I used
Speaker 1: to come over there all the time and he'd cook
Speaker 1: me these epic meals. He'd always make salmon. We'd go
Speaker 1: down to the Gelson's down there and get everything, and
Speaker 1: it was amazing. He's so cute. See he's exactly like Luke.
Speaker 1: He was making any meals. Okay. So Jackie has a question.
Speaker 1: She wants to know how you guys met. How did
Speaker 1: you meet? Um? Well, I was at the complex, just
Speaker 1: kind of wandering around looking for this theater. I was.
Speaker 1: There's a theater row in la Is. I was teaching
Speaker 1: there and a place called the Complex that had four
Speaker 1: war theaters in a two downstairs, two upstairs, and I
Speaker 1: was teaching in the one of the downstairs one, and
Speaker 1: she was taking class in one of the upstairs one.
Speaker 1: So go ahead, you take off, okay, as sure, don't. No,
Speaker 1: no, no no, no, no no, no no no. I looked there
Speaker 1: is an age difference. Let's let's that's the elephant in
Speaker 1: the room. Thank you. It's I was forty one, she
Speaker 1: was twenty one. Okay, twenty year age difference. Okay, you
Speaker 1: have a twenty year twenty age difference. Yeah, but here's
Speaker 1: the thing, you've been together like over twenty years, twenty
Speaker 1: three years, going okay, okay. So so you know, she
Speaker 1: was eyeballing and I caught her. No. I was looking
Speaker 1: for the bathroom, and then I see I see those
Speaker 1: guys sitting there in the corner and he was he
Speaker 1: looked rather athletics. So I just kind of like, I
Speaker 1: turned out baseball money to baseball player, like, you know,
Speaker 1: showing out. So I checked him out for a second
Speaker 1: and then went and found the ladies room, and I
Speaker 1: came back a long second much. I came back and
Speaker 1: he stopped me and started talking to me. He's got
Speaker 1: a little game. He's game. Yeah, don't don't, don't be
Speaker 1: looking at me because I got game. Careful, what are
Speaker 1: you looking at? Game? Luke's got game two. We just
Speaker 1: saw that when he's asking Luke enough game compared to me. No, Luke,
Speaker 1: Luke has game. He needed a book and a terrible
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Do you remember seeing Christine
Speaker 1: and thinking, oh, she's cute. Do how do I What
Speaker 1: do I do? Now? Hello? Yeah? Right here? Okay, then
Speaker 1: I want to know hope for Christine. So you're dating
Speaker 1: Scott and he's on this show. In your wildest dreams, like,
Speaker 1: did you ever think I'm gonna marry this guy. We're
Speaker 1: gonna have a baby, He's we're gonna have this How
Speaker 1: we're gonna move out of this crap apartment? One day?
Speaker 1: It wasn't crap. It was beautiful. It was a beautiful, convenient,
Speaker 1: wonderful place. Could you have even envision and what would
Speaker 1: happen with his career? Because look, we always talk about Luke,
Speaker 1: but you you worked consistently when you want to Scott,
Speaker 1: like you're in Saw. You did the move, the show
Speaker 1: I liked with Blair Underwood, which I can't remember what
Speaker 1: was the event which turned out to you and you're
Speaker 1: and you're we'll get to back working now, because I
Speaker 1: have questions about that. But like Christine and your dreams,
Speaker 1: could you have ever sort of dreamed this for yourself
Speaker 1: and for him? Uh? Well, you know on our first
Speaker 1: date when we got to that restaurant Drafts in Santa Monica,
Speaker 1: he just like walked up to to the person to
Speaker 1: tell him that he has a reservation and he told
Speaker 1: him two for Scott Patterson, and I just, I don't know,
Speaker 1: for some reason, I thought Patterson missus Patterson. I just
Speaker 1: thought that. But I didn't tell him anything, you know,
Speaker 1: I don't want to scare him as you had Game two. Pristine,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, she never she was cool. She never
Speaker 1: pressured me. She never you know, she never gave me
Speaker 1: a hard time about anything. And it was impressive. The
Speaker 1: baby was born after Gilmore Girls ended during twenty fourteen,
Speaker 1: oh so much later. So what a whole other lifetime.
Speaker 1: Now you're living essentially together like you did the Gilmore
Speaker 1: Girls thing and all and now and I know, okay,
Speaker 1: so this is my question because I know from Scott
Speaker 1: and he you know, we know being a dad is
Speaker 1: like it's his number one thing. There's nothing more important
Speaker 1: to him. So what did you think when he decided
Speaker 1: to go back to acting and leave to do the
Speaker 1: new show? Because is that the first time since the
Speaker 1: baby was born that you you had to leave them? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah for that period of time, for that chunk of time.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. So what did you think when he came
Speaker 1: to you and said, I'm going I'm thinking this part's
Speaker 1: going to happen. I was excited for him. I didn't
Speaker 1: like that we'd be apart from each other, but you know,
Speaker 1: you just kind of go with it, right, And so
Speaker 1: decided that we'd be visiting him a lot, and since
Speaker 1: it's in the summertime, we could potentially just go up
Speaker 1: there and stay there the whole time. Yeah. It's so
Speaker 1: interesting that, like actors life, the musician life, because as
Speaker 1: the person married to that person, you do have to
Speaker 1: it is like there's not the same consistency schedule, even
Speaker 1: like money can go up and down, like it's not
Speaker 1: like a regular life. And so did that? What did you?
Speaker 1: Were you scared of the how to? Really like, you
Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna this guy is gonna, we're gonna
Speaker 1: do this together. Well, I was. I was so young,
Speaker 1: and I was really actually very naive about the whole business.
Speaker 1: And I only thought that success was possible. I was
Speaker 1: not aware that it could be like up and down
Speaker 1: for some reason. And like on our first date at
Speaker 1: that restaurant, he told me that he booked this job
Speaker 1: that he needs to go to Canada and film this
Speaker 1: thing called Gilmore Girls, And I was so excited for him.
Speaker 1: Already in my mind, I'm thinking, oh my god, he's
Speaker 1: on a TV show. I had no idea that, you know,
Speaker 1: the chances of it becoming a hit are very slim
Speaker 1: to none. I had no idea. I thought, Okay, for sure,
Speaker 1: this is a hit. This is gonna be great, Scott,
Speaker 1: like you thought it was like cool, Like you were like,
Speaker 1: this is exciting, this is fun. Yeah, it almost makes
Speaker 1: me want to like get teary Scott, do you looking
Speaker 1: back now think like, I don't know, whatever you believe
Speaker 1: in fate, God, whatever it is, somebody really had a
Speaker 1: plan for you, Like you met your future wife and
Speaker 1: got the job of a lifetime all at the same time.
Speaker 1: Oh crazy, Yeah, that's crazy, you know. It's I think
Speaker 1: people's lives just not mine, But I think a lot
Speaker 1: of people's lives come together when they get busy and
Speaker 1: they just you know, I was busy. I was teaching
Speaker 1: three acting classes a week. I was. I had an
Speaker 1: assistant who was teaching a Saturday class for kids. I
Speaker 1: was busy. I was. I was teaching offering privates all
Speaker 1: day on the weekends and at night on week days.
Speaker 1: So I was just so exhausted and so busy. But
Speaker 1: I was bringing you know, I was paying my bills. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I just didn't have time for anything else. So
Speaker 1: when gilmore opportunity came along, and all these other auditions
Speaker 1: that I had came along, they were always in second position,
Speaker 1: a third position, yeah, because I had my main jam
Speaker 1: and I always make it. That was my money. That
Speaker 1: was you know, keeping a roof over my head and
Speaker 1: keeping gas in my car and food on the table
Speaker 1: and being able to take, you know, take Christina out
Speaker 1: to you know, fancy restaurant in Santa Monica, which just
Speaker 1: like when the bill came, I was like, hey, I
Speaker 1: don't know, obviously worth it, uh, but you know, look,
Speaker 1: you know what we used to do. We used to do.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna tell them about the money dance.
Speaker 1: We used to do the money dance. And I know
Speaker 1: the money dance was every time the paycheck came from
Speaker 1: the show. Yeah, I would go to the the mailbox. I
Speaker 1: would get all excited because it was such an amount
Speaker 1: of money. It blew my mind. Yeah, and this was coming,
Speaker 1: and so I'd go inside and I'd say, you know, hunt,
Speaker 1: time do the money dance. So we do we do
Speaker 1: our we do the money dance. Oh my god, what
Speaker 1: a time like together? Yeah, we did that. Well, we
Speaker 1: didn't live together for the first what two years of
Speaker 1: the show show? Yea three years of the show. You
Speaker 1: moved in what two thousand and five? Did you move
Speaker 1: into that apartment? No? No, no, no, no no no no.
Speaker 1: I bought a house in oh three. And then she
Speaker 1: came in two years later, thinking oh five, oh six,
Speaker 1: oh six, Yeah, right when I was about to sell
Speaker 1: it and oh but I didn't. I h I hung
Speaker 1: onto it. I was gonna say, did you stay in
Speaker 1: that house all the way till your son was born? Yeah?
Speaker 1: After after he was six years old when I sold
Speaker 1: the house. We sold the house two years ago. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, we knew you when you moved. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: so that house. Look, I try not to be like
Speaker 1: that person that attaches so many memories to a house,
Speaker 1: but that had to have like a lot of memories.
Speaker 1: For you guys, it was hard to leave, and especially
Speaker 1: hard for her. You know, it was hard. So what
Speaker 1: did your family think, Christine when you were like, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna marry or I'm dating, I'm gonna marry this actor
Speaker 1: guy and he is over this actor guy. What did
Speaker 1: you say? What did they think? You know? I remember, No,
Speaker 1: we can't. We don't recall senator. I see. But now
Speaker 1: it's all good. Now, it's great, it's all good now.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, oh my gosh. Okay, So Scott touched
Speaker 1: on this a little bit. I think last week that
Speaker 1: your son is starting to understand like, my dad's not
Speaker 1: quite like the other dads. Like people recognize him. He's famous,
Speaker 1: he's seen the work. What is that like for you
Speaker 1: as the mom navigating that with him, Like, it's so
Speaker 1: different than most kids, right are most kids at school?
Speaker 1: It's probably a little easier because you're in LA, but like,
Speaker 1: what is that like for you guys? Well, he's just
Speaker 1: early starting to realize it. So it's he hasn't fully
Speaker 1: he doesn't fully understand it, but he's like beginning to
Speaker 1: get it a little bit. Yeah, he's seen me on
Speaker 1: TV under he knows what famous means. Yeah, I was
Speaker 1: thinking about that. I was thinking about that, but he
Speaker 1: just he doesn't understand. You know, when people come up
Speaker 1: to me in airports and things. He it's like, Daddy,
Speaker 1: you know, why did that? Why did that person want
Speaker 1: you to sign that thing? What is that? You know?
Speaker 1: Are they giving you money? And I'm like kind of
Speaker 1: I said, no, those are fans and I'd explain it
Speaker 1: to him. And I was on a show and you
Speaker 1: know they love the show and you know, and it
Speaker 1: will be interesting as he gets older, right, because it's
Speaker 1: it's a different you you know, it's not quite the dad,
Speaker 1: but like that the show has had this longevity and
Speaker 1: it just keeps going and going. I mean, would you
Speaker 1: say both of you that the show is more popular
Speaker 1: now than it even was when it started. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think so, yeah, I think, you know, I think the
Speaker 1: Netflix episodes made it go really viral globally, and it's downloadable.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't is it's still on the platform.
Speaker 1: I'm not really sure. I think it still is. I'm
Speaker 1: watch it a lot of Yeah, there's a lot of place. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so it's it's it's it's available on a lot of
Speaker 1: different platforms. And for example, yesterday, I'm leaving the gym
Speaker 1: with my buddy and uh, this young girl just like
Speaker 1: kind of beaming over and like I just have to
Speaker 1: say my mother, and I love you and and oh
Speaker 1: my god, are you And it's just like, you know,
Speaker 1: our relationship was healed because of because of the show,
Speaker 1: and we love you and the whole thing. And I
Speaker 1: hear that every single day, and it's really nice. It's
Speaker 1: a really nice thing to hear, right that you're involved
Speaker 1: in something like that. So, um, yeah, I have a
Speaker 1: friend who she's about to give birth like any day,
Speaker 1: and she's on bed RISS and she just started for
Speaker 1: the first time from season one. So she was texting
Speaker 1: me like she's on like because she knew we'd do
Speaker 1: the podcasts. Um, but yeah, she just started. Are seeing
Speaker 1: a little jealous? Sorry, I get jealous for Danielle that's
Speaker 1: experiencing it for the first time. I'm jealous of Danielle. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I wish I could go back. I'm jealous of Danielle
Speaker 1: too waits. She lives in Santa Monica. She's got such
Speaker 1: an easy, freezy way about her. I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: also watching it like how people watched it when it
Speaker 1: was live on TV. Because I'm watching it each week,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I'm like, literally mean
Speaker 1: not watching the finale right now. I'm like, when is
Speaker 1: the finale out? I need to watch it now. It's
Speaker 1: all I've been holding off. It's so funny, Christine for
Speaker 1: us because Scott is, like I would say, he's like
Speaker 1: three people, right, because there's the Scott we do the
Speaker 1: podcast with, that's like the guy that's our co worker.
Speaker 1: We do this show him. But then I have those
Speaker 1: moments when I'm like, oh my god, he's also Luke,
Speaker 1: like he played that guy. It's really weird. Danny, I'll
Speaker 1: ever having this conversation where we're like, he's so many
Speaker 1: to us, so many sort of different things, because sometimes
Speaker 1: when we talk about Luke, I almost forget that I'm
Speaker 1: talking to Scott, who is Luke? Do you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? It's like very surreal and confusing at times
Speaker 1: because he's also watching some of these things were the
Speaker 1: first time, so it's just like it gets so fixed.
Speaker 1: I mean, I sometimes these things pop up on Instagram
Speaker 1: where it's like Luke and Laurela and there's all these
Speaker 1: still shots of him or like little memes, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, Luke, that's my husband. It is kind
Speaker 1: of surreal. It just kind of and and I don't
Speaker 1: remember watching yet a whole lot while it was going
Speaker 1: on back then, but like now when it pops up,
Speaker 1: it's like, oh my god. Social media, it's so it's
Speaker 1: so weird for me because remember last week, because there
Speaker 1: aren't look I'm not gonna lie there aren't, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure there are many girls. Luke was real charming and handsome,
Speaker 1: so I get these weird moments because there's that scene
Speaker 1: Scott where we talked about like you were getting ready
Speaker 1: for the wedding and you're in your you know, handsome suit,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, you were so cute. Right, He's
Speaker 1: like this redndsome guy totally and so, and like I
Speaker 1: laugh with the people that fans that listen to the
Speaker 1: podcast because they get it too. For Scott. You guys
Speaker 1: should see Scott's he wants to leave you want to interview?
Speaker 1: That's not You have to sometimes like understand, like one
Speaker 1: of the reasons we love this podcast and Gilmore Girls
Speaker 1: is like Luke is cute and charming and the swooning
Speaker 1: and the kiss and it's like that's such an important thing.
Speaker 1: So I wonder what that's so funny for Christine to
Speaker 1: have those moments of like, oh, yeah, that guy, I'm
Speaker 1: married to that guy. Yeah. Yeah. I have a question
Speaker 1: for Christine, Um, what did you think when Scott told
Speaker 1: you that he was going to do this podcast? Like
Speaker 1: what were your thoughts, like, did you think it would
Speaker 1: did you think it would be as as big as
Speaker 1: it is, or did you think like, oh, this is
Speaker 1: just something fun he's doing. Yeah. I had no idea.
Speaker 1: I didn't really know the world of podcasts. I just thought, oh,
Speaker 1: that's that's fun, that's cute. Yeah. You have to understand,
Speaker 1: I'm constantly scheming and so every week he has something
Speaker 1: another idea and that's all exactly. She's so used to
Speaker 1: it by now she she doesn't even break stride anymore.
Speaker 1: Oh god, you know, she just she continues up the stairs.
Speaker 1: Oh that's great. Huh okay, I gotta go. He s
Speaker 1: always get excited about every single idea he'd ever have,
Speaker 1: and then I realized, like, I can't sustain this. Then
Speaker 1: I'd be like, let's just wait and see if it
Speaker 1: becomes like something big, I'll get excited later. Can hang
Speaker 1: up You're like, you can hang up that poster? Now?
Speaker 1: Did you ever have a moment when you're like, oh
Speaker 1: my my nutty husband, this podcast actually do? Like I
Speaker 1: was like, wow, this is good. That is so good.
Speaker 1: Oh my face, oh so much? Oh my god, god
Speaker 1: is so good. So have you ever I wish that
Speaker 1: Christine came with you when we did the Warner Brothers Lot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well you know she had to stay in Colorado with Nick. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I forgot. We made you fly home. Sorry, But like,
Speaker 1: I would love to experience that with her through her eyes,
Speaker 1: because when Danielle called me and she's like, it's going amazing.
Speaker 1: Scott is hugging grandmas and kids and like the videos
Speaker 1: are so crazy. I'm just this like massive crowd following
Speaker 1: him like the you know he's Santa Claus or something like,
Speaker 1: is that weird? You know. I wasn't there, so I
Speaker 1: didn't experience this. But he came to Colorado and he
Speaker 1: told me all about it, and it's you know, he's
Speaker 1: some one pretty good. Yeah. Have you ever gone to
Speaker 1: any of those like cons or any of those fan
Speaker 1: events with him? I haven't. That must be so weird
Speaker 1: when there's a thousand people in a line to get
Speaker 1: your picture. No, I don't think it's weird. Listen, if
Speaker 1: they had those when I was growing up, I would
Speaker 1: have dragged my parents. That made my parents take me
Speaker 1: to to go see you know, the people that I
Speaker 1: was enamored with when I was I was like Mark
Speaker 1: Hamill and Harrison. Yeah, you know, you know, I mean
Speaker 1: I think anybody would. I mean, if they're coming into
Speaker 1: your area, right and it's like it's a little bit,
Speaker 1: you know, it's a ticket and and I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's just Gil Gilmore fans are are very much the
Speaker 1: same and that day are. They're very open, they're very
Speaker 1: they share their feelings very easily. Um. It's always very
Speaker 1: emotional and very sweet. Um. It's really something and at
Speaker 1: the time, it's so much love. It kind of is.
Speaker 1: It's a love fest, and they just they just wanted
Speaker 1: to like that girl yes to she just wanted to
Speaker 1: tell me, you know, hey, I don't I don't want
Speaker 1: to bother you. I don't want to break your stride anything.
Speaker 1: But you did so much. Your show did so much
Speaker 1: from my mother and I and were you know, it
Speaker 1: healed our rift and we watched the show together even
Speaker 1: to this day. So it's yeah, so that's what it's like.
Speaker 1: It's really nice. Never I never saw that comming. That's
Speaker 1: that's one thing. Did you ever see that comming? I
Speaker 1: never saw that coming. Oh, that you would like really

Speaker 1: I go out in the world and I experienced that,
Speaker 1: and when I'm home. It doesn't yeah, yeah, yeah, it's

Speaker 1: tell stories. Nick tells stories. We just laugh and laugh
Speaker 1: and laugh. I find everything funny in life. Um, for
Speaker 1: the most part, I just find the absurdity of it.
Speaker 1: And and so do shade Um. You know, we we
Speaker 1: just we we do. We laugh a lot, that's for sure. Huh.
Speaker 1: I feel like we need to do rapid fire. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh my goodness, right, do you want me to do it?
Speaker 1: You guys want to do it? No, you do it.
Speaker 1: You do it, and we say, bravo Christine, wonderful performance

Speaker 1: random lady and it turned out to be you. What
Speaker 1: a cool things you guys, thank you for doing this,
Speaker 1: like thank you for having me. And we love your husband.
Speaker 1: He works his butt off on this And the thing
Speaker 1: that I'll say, he really cares about this podcast and
Speaker 1: we appreciate it so much, like he really wants he'll
Speaker 1: do anything. We say, fly here for one day, you know,
Speaker 1: can you do this interview in the middle of the night,
Speaker 1: like whatever, And it's like he really loves this show.
Speaker 1: Yeah he does. Well, here's how I talk about it
Speaker 1: because like I, like I said previously, I scheme, I
Speaker 1: try to do things and they fail, and like everybody right,
Speaker 1: and and I just picked up a phone and I
Speaker 1: called you. And then nine months later, ba boom, we're
Speaker 1: on the we're recording, and I just I kept more
Speaker 1: marveling at this eventuality to my wife and I was saying,
Speaker 1: I just picked up a phone, yeah, and it was pandemic,
Speaker 1: and I what can I do here? What can I do?
Speaker 1: Because the scheming doesn't stop? What am I gonna do?
Speaker 1: What am I gonna do? Keep moving, keep moving, create
Speaker 1: another business, let's go. Yeah, I mean I think that
Speaker 1: it was. I feel super lucky even with all their critiques,
Speaker 1: Like these people listen to this every multiple times a week.
Speaker 1: They come back and they're so in it with us well,
Speaker 1: and they cared just as much yeah, you know, if
Speaker 1: not maybe even more, Like they're so invested and that's awesome.
Speaker 1: But I think I think also I got lucky with
Speaker 1: the three of you because it's a good hang for
Speaker 1: me and we have good conversations. And now that I've
Speaker 1: learned to just shut up and listen, because I didn't
Speaker 1: do that before. But Christine ever walks by the door
Speaker 1: and it's like what is he Because it must sound
Speaker 1: so crazy to hear like what are they doing? Guitars going?
Speaker 1: It's like we're like just doing weird goofy crap all it.
Speaker 1: I must be so funny to be like what is
Speaker 1: he doing? In there. Yeah, Now she knows I have
Speaker 1: a sign on the door that said podcast in progress.
Speaker 1: Do not enter one of those light up signs exactly exactly,
Speaker 1: and then Nick would come in and sit, Dad, there's
Speaker 1: a red light on outside? What's that mean? I know
Speaker 1: you could. We could tell right from the beginning who
Speaker 1: really runs things at your house, and it's neither of you. Two. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that starts with the letter end Nick. Nick is now
Speaker 1: insisting that I get in touch with Elon Musk because
Speaker 1: he wants to sit down and have a meeting with
Speaker 1: him to solve his battery pack problem. He has several
Speaker 1: solutions that he has the graphics for and that designed
Speaker 1: from I'm not kidding. I mean he's like, like I said,
Speaker 1: he's five times smarter than the two of us put together,
Speaker 1: and she's three and she's three times as smart as
Speaker 1: I am. So it's like it really leaves me in
Speaker 1: the dust. All right, ready, little rapid fire, All right, Christine?
Speaker 1: How many cups of coffee you having a day? Three?
Speaker 1: Are you team Logan, Team Jess, Team Dean? I think
Speaker 1: we already knows, and you can only choose one, Sorry,
