44
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,840

45
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 4: longer than anyone I've known on here actually because we

46
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 4: played in the entertainment before.

47
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, that was.

48
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: Yes, years ago. Were cool.

49
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 6: We might have been teammates.

50
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: We might have been teammates one season, I think so.

51
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 4: But then, yeah, we were just talking in Arizona and

52
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 4: you were like, yeah, have been doing this podcast which

53
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,920

00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,320

00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 4: Exciting and you were like, you should get after it,

57
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 4: and Vanessa jumped at it in a very great way,

58
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 4: put it together with Tia and John, and I think

59
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 4: it's sort of just took off like wildflop. I wasn't

60
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 4: expecting it to go so quickly, and it's been great.

61
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: It's phenomenal. I love that you guys are doing. It's

62
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: picking it up. It's really you know. The thing is,

63
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: we're all actors and we come from a different era,

64
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: like you know, tell us that we go back to

65
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: another time. And obviously we're all we've all been around

66
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: the block a few times, you guys. But the words

67
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: changed and things are changing, and media is changing, and

68
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: all these different avenues are opening up and it's new

69
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: ways to tell stories, new ways to explore the stories

70
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: we've already told, and it's really, it's really an exciting time.

71
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 1: So I'm glad you guys are doing this, and I'm glad. Look,

72
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: I'm glad to be a part of, you know, the

73
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: Star Wars universe. For me, like many many people, Star

74
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: Wars is the first fandom and no matter whatever else

75
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 1: we've got to do in our careers or whatever else

76
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: like get to do later on in this career, being

77
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 1: able to have a little piece of Star Wars is

78
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: just the childhood dream of mine. As I'm sure it's

79
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: a lot of people out there.

80
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 3: I was actually wondering. I was going to ask you

81
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 3: like you are First of all.

82
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,360

83
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 3: I know, yeah, that's real work, but y'all, for those

84
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: who are listening, just take a peek at Dante's IMDb

85
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 3: page and just like, look at the not just the

86
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 3: sheer scandal before.

87
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 7: I know, you've been working for.

88
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: A long time because I started so young. That's why

89
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: I started so young and repertoire.

90
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: But I was curious about that because I was like,

91
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 3: you're you are part of so many fandoms and so like,

92
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 3: how does Star Wars.

93
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 7: How does Star Wars compare.

94
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: Star Wars Number one? It's the og fandom.

95
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 6: Let's go.

96
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: I just, you know, since a little kid, before I

97
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 1: got to LA when I was ten, because me and

98
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: my brother break dancers, and we came to LA and

99
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: we started this industry as dancers and all that was gone.

100
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: But before all that was happening, we were kids playing

101
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: in the garage with lightsabers that were the red you

102
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: know flashlights with the PBC pipe coming out of it,

103
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: and going to watch you know, I mean, I was

104
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: a kid when Jedi returned to the Jedi came out,

105
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: Like I remember all the you know, the happy meals

106
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 1: and all stuff like that that but we would also

107
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: go in those days to all the you know, they

108
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: would re release Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back. So

109
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: I saw those in the theaters and those were that was.

110
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: Those are the movies and all the toys that we

111
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 1: bought and destroyed and we wish we knew they were

112
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: gonna be worth something some day and we would not

113
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: have shot them with BB guns. And I haven't talked

114
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: to all these people, like you know, Boba Fet, like

115
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: no one knew his name was Boba Fett. He was

116
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 1: the bounty hunter. He was the bun for like years

117
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: until we got the toys, like who's bet.

118
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 2: No.

119
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: But so Star Wars is definitely just core memories and

120
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: just you know, we we all want to when we're kids,

121
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: we all want to be Luke Skywalker. Then we grew

122
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: up and we realized you actually want to behind solo. Yeah,

123
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: and you know everything, I mean, the Lower, I mean,

124
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: the whole thing is is great. Even when I got

125
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: to do things later on life and when I did

126
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: The Hook, I remember George Lucas coming to the set

127

194
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 2: in the works, this and that. But your birthday party

195
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 2: played a pivotal role in linking me up with more

196
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 2: Star Wars family. I mean, it really is six degrees

197
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 2: of Dante. That's a thank you for your service. You

198
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 2: were being of service back then and you didn't even know. Hey,

199
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,599
Speaker 2: you know, the whole thing was communities and fandoms. I

200
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 2: didn't grow up in this world like the comic con world.

201
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 2: In the community, I was I was a you know,

202
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 2: as a B boy, and I was a hip hop

203
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 2: kid and then I was a club kid in La

204
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: So when I got embraced by the fandoms on Tumblr, Twitter,

205
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 2: where you know, the comic con world, it's so much

206
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 2: as you guys know, there's so much love and there's

207
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 2: so much adoration coming to you.

208
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: It's like you want to give something back. And I

209
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: the only thing I give back was like my exp rings,

210
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: which was the club experience. So I started throwing clubs

211
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: for the nerds scene and we did stuff like before COVID,

212
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: we were doing opening parties for common Con San Diego,

213
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 1: and I'd go around the country and if they wanted

214
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: me to come to Connell DJ and I'll do stuff

215
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: like that. So it was my give back to the

216
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: community for what what I could do authentically, you know

217
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,080

218
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,880

00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 6: career in entertainment.

254
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,480

00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: and on me and Taylor from Lloyd Pride, So I

260
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 1: wrote it for my brothers and myself and we got

261
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: to shoot here in the Philippines and a premier at

Speaker 1: south By Southwest and it did really well and we're

263
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: maybe doing the sequels soon. But yeah, as I got

264
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: to my forties, late thirties forties, I was like I

265
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 1: started producing Asian films and just trying to give something

266
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: that I didn't have for my generation, you know what

267
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and like give it, pay it forward. I

268
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: started this group called We on the Eighth where it

269
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 1: was like the eighth day of every month, we just

270
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: have a have an event and we screened short filmed

271
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: by Asian filmmakers and we'd have speakers from like you

272
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: know Randall Park to like Tinto getto like YouTube were

273
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: stars Fortune five one hundred people just really Asians to

274
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: Asians talking about the industry and about their experiences and

275
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 1: trying to pass it forward and it's called We on

276
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: the Eighth and we did that for uh for four years,

277
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 1: and that those conversations led up to things like trade

278
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: rich Asians. JOHNA. True called me up, like we need

279
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: to talk. I got a film. We were doing some things,

280
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: and so it's great to be a part of the

281
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: dialogue and the conversation which led to this kind of

282
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 1: golden nere of what's happening for Asians in Hollywood right now.

283
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: And so I mean, we do, we can't, you know,

284
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: we do, we can't. We try to be of service

285
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:33,439
Speaker 1: as it is.

286
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 3: You've been doing it for so long and yet like

287
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 3: it's so refreshing you still have so much energy and

288
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 3: like love for it.

289
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 7: Which is lovely to see. I mean, we all did

290
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 7: right like that, right, Yeah, I don't know something.

291
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's like ebbs and flows and shirt floats, but.

292
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 3: I can tell that you still like, you know, I

293
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:00,959
Speaker 3: don't want to speak for us, but I feel like

294
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 3: I can to say, like there's nothing else we would

295
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 3: rather be doing than what we get to do and

296
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 3: are privileged enough to do. But it's like amazing to

297
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 3: see that you just man, you're like the energizer bunny.

298
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 3: You've got like so much energy and so much passion

299
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,559
Speaker 3: for it, and you just keep going.

300
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think we also do this situation where

301
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: it's like we don't know how to do anything else,

302
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: Like I have any other skills, There's nothing else anyone

303
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: would hire me to do than to do this. I

304
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: have no other skills. I can't do anything else. So

305
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: that makes it easy, an easy choice.

306
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 5: I guess, well, your skills are very very sharpened this one, so,

307
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 5: I mean, I think you're going to be all right.

308
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:43,840

00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: we I got to this world. I was up for Taylors.

315
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 1: I was up for Ezra. You know Edra doesn't remember

316
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: because Edra got the role that so this is it

317
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: came down. Yeah, so it came down and I knew.

318
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: I knew Taylor, and I also knew the other. First

319
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: came out of three people at least from this happened.

320
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: Do you remember the final audition?

321
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 6: It was me, dude, I was so late to that.

322
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 6: I know Taylor was like, I'm not going I was

323
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 6: not because.

324
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: When I got into VO two, I didn't know what

325
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: I was doing for the whole thing. But by this

326
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: time I had done a serious right and I was like, oh,

327
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: Taylor is exactly where I was few years ago. I

328
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: don't know, I'm an on camera guy, don't know what

329
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: I'm doing THEO Anyhow, to my knowledge, it came down

330
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: to Ezra, came down to three actors and Brighton James,

331
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: who's also in this episode, who plays the other character

332
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: that's wild right, So it came down to us three,

333
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: and then Taylor ended up getting it. Me and actually

334
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 1: Brian ended up doing another show called ZBO three together

335
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: where we were to the hero two of the five

336
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: heroes or whatever. But Taylor got this one, and then

337
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: they brought us back as these other rebel kids when

338
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: he gets locked in. So it all there's like the

339
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: whole you know, there's a whole backstories that we don't

340
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: even know that's in the stories in the production, and

341
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: this episode shows one of the backstories that we were

342
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: the other two actors up for Ezra. So it makes

343
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: sense that we're the two other kind of kids that

344
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: break out of the Empires.

345
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 6: I love that circle perfect.

346
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 5: To quote Darth Vada, the circle is complete, basically, isn't

347
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 5: what you've done with this? So we are doing Season one,

348
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 5: episode six, Breaking Ranks. Original air date November three, twenty fourteen.

349
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 5: I believe, and Jason can fact check on me on this.

350
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 5: I believe seven days after this, the first trailer for

351
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 5: Force Awakens came out or something like that, or maybe

352
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 5: it might might I think so, or something like that.

353
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 5: So something with the Force Awakens was tied to November

354
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 5: twenty fourteen, or it might be a year off. So Dante,

355
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 5: I do like a quick little recap, kind of like

356
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 5: how Teskane would do stuff on Clone Wars. But mind's

357
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 5: a little longer, and I don't sound I don't sound

358
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 5: like Tom Kane, but I just sound like me. But

359
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 5: without further I do, I guess. I wait for the

360
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 5: magic words from Vanessa since she's the captain of the

361
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 5: Ghost so she.

362
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 9: Has to Johnny.

363
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: There we go.

364
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 5: So here we go, Season one, episode six, Breaking Ranks.

365
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 5: We get a glimpse of what Stormtrooper School looks like.

366
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 5: Into our surprise, one of the bucketheads and training is Ezra.

367
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 9: No No. Ezra has not joined the Empire.

368
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 5: He's actually undercover, opposing as a storm Trooper cadet under

369
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 5: the alias Dev Morgan and efforts to get information on

370
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 5: an Imperial Kyber Crystal shipment, much like how Ernie Rays

371
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 5: Junior's character would infiltrate the fook claning Partoo sect or

372
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:51,719
Speaker 5: they use great movie, She got to check it out.

373
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 1: By the way, you know a Filipino Taylor the Filipino and.

374
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 5: As Martial Artis remind you that dude is no joke. Meanwhile,

375
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 5: the rest of the Ghost crew is on standby for

376
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 5: support as Ezra does his mission impossible thing. And even

377
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 5: though Canan clearly comes from the generation of men who

378
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 5: won't openly express their feelings, it's rather obvious he's worried

379
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 5: about his young padawan. While undercover, Ezra deferends two cadets, Jaikel,

380
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 5: who sounds a lot like the character Ben Mercado from

381
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 5: the Filipino American movie The Debut from the year two thousand.

382
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 5: We'll get into that too. I know it's a deep

383
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 5: poll and Zia Leonis, who is voiced by a guy

384
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 5: who was once Steve Urkel's neighbor.

385
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: It's true.

386
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 5: Look that up and after getting the needed intel from

387
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 5: Kallus's office, Ezra overhears the commanding officers talking to the

388
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,719
Speaker 5: Inquisitor and decides to stay behind and help his new friends.

389
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 5: He even goes as far is blaming the Ghost Crew,

390
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 5: saying that their whole help others mentality has rubbed off

391
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 5: of him. It's the kind of projection that Sigmund Furroud

392
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 5: would have a field day with. As Ezra helps his

393
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 5: friends Canaan and Haarah intercept the Imperial shipment of Kyber

394
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 5: Crystal in a suspensi suspenseful high stakes battle, and Hara,

395
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 5: as she often does, comes through in the clutch like

396
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 5: Reggie Miller at Madison Square Garden in the nineties, by

397
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 5: destroying the Kyber Crystal shipment just in time and back

398
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 5: of the storm Trooper Academy, zeb Sabin and Schopper come

399
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 5: to the aid of Ezra and his friends, but in

400
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 5: the shocking move, Zara decignes to stay behind enemy lines,

401
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 5: but Ezra promises him he'll stay in touch. Zara, now

402
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 5: on his own, must maintain his cover while also answering

403
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 5: to the Inquisitor. Meanwhile, the Ghost Crew assures Ji they'll

404
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 5: get him to his mother. Well, have to go into hiding,

405
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,479
Speaker 5: and Ezra expresses the Canaan that even though he's been

406
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 5: on his own, he's forgotten what it's like to be

407
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 5: on his own, but he has now embraced the idea

408
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 5: of being part of a team and finds comfort in

409
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 5: the fact that, like the Michael Jackson song, he is

410
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 5: not alone.

411
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 1: Wells, Deep Cuts, Deep Cuts, John.

412
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 5: I knew we're gonna have Asian heavy episodes. I'm like,

413
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 5: God to throw some Ernie Race Junior in there. Oh yeah,

414
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 5: because people don't have. Reggie Miller was a bad bad man,

415
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 5: especially sware Garden.

416
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. He killed people ten seconds.

417
00:19:58,760 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, he killed Spike.

418
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 5: Spike Lee has clearly gone nine lives because he got

419
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 5: killed many times by Reggie Miller.

420
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,959
Speaker 1: Guys, when you guys reapt the episodes since it's been

421
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: years back and as we do the avatar thing the

422
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 1: other things, do you even remember some of these things

423
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: or do you're like, is it just like a fog

424
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: some of these episodes.

425
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 6: To you the lad Yes, yeah, this is a first

426
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:20,239
Speaker 6: watch for me.

427
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: No, I mean, listen, my first season of our podcast,

428
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 1: we were like, I gotta I'm watching every episode, but

429
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: I never watched the I never watched the show in

430
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: chronological order until the till the podcast. And it's fascinating

431
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: because I think a lot of we've all been actual

432
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: for a long time, right, So I've never gone back

433
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 1: to watch anything I've done in depth and have to

434
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: talk about it. I mean, I was like, this is

435
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 1: the first experience I've had of actually watching some of

436
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: my work and kind of trying to be you know,

437
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: have some thoughts about it, have some kind of new

438
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 1: things to talk about. So it was a It's a

439
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: very interesting thing just as a artist and as a

440
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 1: person to kind of go back and look at these things.

441
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: You know, I'm sure I feel.

442
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 3: Like, you know, no, I haven't watched any of these

443
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 3: episodes since they first aired.

444
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 7: Taylor hasn't watched most of the episodes ever, So.

445
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: We're like, that was a cool session. I'm gonna go

446
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:22,719
Speaker 1: play some basketball in this sea.

447
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 6: But I feel like.

448
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 3: It's it's it's it's unusual because I've never gone back

449
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 3: after a long time and watched something I did, but

450
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 3: watched it. I'm not watching it for my perform you know.

451
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys like you go to

452
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 3: you go to a premiere and you and you're like

453
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 3: watching like between like like what what I'm constantly critiquing

454
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 3: my own performance. But this time time around, I feel

455
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 3: like I'm able to sort of because we were here

456
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 3: for something different, right, We're here to talk about the story.

457
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 3: We're here Reveniste about like what was happening, you know,

458
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 3: in those recording sessions, and so I'm able to like

459
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 3: watch it as audience member more so than I probably

460
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 3: did the first time I watched these episodes around you know, Lincoln,

461
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 3: and was like, oh, Tia, you know or whatever.

462
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 4: You know.

463
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: However, we a yeah, and sometimes like, I don't know

464
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,719
Speaker 1: any memory of this at all. I've never learned ever

465
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: saying that I said that, I don't remember those words

466
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: ever coming out of my mouth ever.

467
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I thing with this show is you don't

468
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 4: have to worry about I forget who first said this.

469
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 4: When you go to a premiere of a movie, you're

470
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 4: just like watching your hair a lot, and you're watching

471
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 4: certain things and you don't have to worry about any

472
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 4: of that.

473
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,479
Speaker 6: You're like, well, at least that looks fine.

474
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 7: That's true.

475
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 5: Something that comes up a lot the hair on this show,

476
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 5: Like everyone's had a hair like Jake Kell's got a

477
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 5: good head of hair.

478
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 9: Man, He's got that click.

479
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,199
Speaker 5: He is he should have was on CW show with

480
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 5: that kind of hair going on and the character.

481
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: Made into a Soka. They were like, he made it

482
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 1: into the live action Jake Kill for real? For real? Yeah, crazy,

483
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: So I guess it's cool to have a little piece

484
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: of Star Wars. It's very And the thing is, yeah,

485
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 1: when you do the show for years, like it becomes

486
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: one big crazy memory. But because I was only with

487
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: you guys for a short period of time, I do

488
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: remember the session with you guys, and I asked the

489
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 1: great I asked some good memories because I remember we

490
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: were at It was at La Studios right right down

491
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: in Coiga, which which is one of my favorite studios

492
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: to record. We did all of American Dragon Jake Long

493
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: for Disney there. So they have the best food for

494
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 1: people out there. They have the for me. They have

495
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 1: the best kitchen in Voiceover studios. They always have ice cream,

496
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 1: hogging dogs, bars in the freezer and they'll hang out

497
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 1: coffee and they have good snacks. It's awesome. So I

498
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 1: love that place. And you guys had the big room

499
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 1: in the back because that's all the cast was there,

500
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 1: and I was like, Yo, this is so awesome that

501
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: everyone is here and we can actually hear the whole episode.

502
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: And it was kind of daunting because it was there's

503
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 1: got to be at least ten people in the room.

504
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: It was a lot of us. It was a big

505
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: girl but my boy Dee Bradley Baker was there, who's

506
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: one really good friends from Avatar, so it's nice to see.

507
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 1: Steve Bloom was there, who was also a good buddy

508
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: to see him work. Freddy Prince was there, who I

509
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: had known Freddy from. He was like, man, don't we

510
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 1: know each other? And we go back probably just from

511
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: my club days when we were kids. I was like, yeah, Grayer,

512
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: but yeah, we're probably running around Joseif sir, I don't

513
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 1: know name of my club from back in those days,

514
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: Lax we were Oh god, we were. We probably bumped

515
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: into each other durned those times. So it was kind

516
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: of cool to see everybody and the energy of everyone there,

517
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,640
Speaker 1: and of course Filoni out there directing us was just amazing.

518
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 2: This is the one me and O'Brien was there, uh

519
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,640
Speaker 2: and he played was the voice of the Commander and

520
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 2: this was his first visit and he said that we

521
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 2: were all kind of buttoned up, and by the time

522
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 2: he came back, like, I don't know if it was

523
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 2: the next season, he's like, y'all are way more comfortable now.

524
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 7: Because we had come off.

525
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

526
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, He's like, Wow, this is a different vive in here,

527
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 2: but this is this is his first visit, so I

528
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 2: guess he based his subsequent commentary on, Uh, I don't know,

529
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 2: did you feel that we were buttoned up?

530
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 1: Or I don't I thought you guys at all were cool,

531
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: because it's always weird to be a guest star coming

532
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 1: into someone else's show because everyone's like it's like click,

533
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: you know, like okay, everyone's homies up in here, and

534
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: then you're just, you know, you're trying I step up.

535
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: I go on, Taylor, what's up?

536
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:27,679
Speaker 2: Man?

537
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,959
Speaker 1: What's up? You're just trying to like fit in and

538
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: not step on anyone's toes. And you know how it

539
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: is when you're doing a new character. You don't even

540
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: know if you have a new you know, you're like,

541
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: are they going to fire me in front of all

542
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: these people that the right person? There's all that doubt

543
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,719
Speaker 1: that comes into your mind. It looks like everyone knows

544
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 1: what they're doing and you don't know what you're doing

545
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: yet you know so, but to me, you guys seemed

546
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: all cool. Now this was everyone's first animated series.

547
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 7: Or or no, you're talking to Vanessa Marshall, right.

548
00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: But Taylor's first one, your first lat Yeah, Taylor and

549
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: I were.

550
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 3: Sort of like the newviies. I won't speak for Taylor,

551
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 3: but I was like just trying to, you know. I

552
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 3: had Vanessa Marshall, Steve Bloom and Freddy Frints Junior to

553
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 3: like just just try not to get fired a and

554
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 3: be just like be a sponge and try and soak

555
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 3: up as much of their expertise and just like talent

556
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 3: and experience as I could. I still try to do that,

557
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 3: But yeah, Taylor and I were sort of always kind

558
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 3: of giving each other's looks like.

559
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 6: What are we doing it? What are we doing right?

560
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 4: I mean you coming into the show, I don't know

561
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 4: if I ever told you it brought me this sense

562
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 4: of relief. I was like, oh, I'm comfortable because, like

563
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 4: a lot of things you'd go into, I knew someone

564
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 4: someone was producing it or another actor in this I

565
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 4: was like, I don't know anyone. I also don't know

566
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 4: much about stars. I'm literally I'm just trying to tread

567
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 4: water here. I don't I've never done voiceover. I don't

568
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 4: know why the hell I'm here. And then I was like,

569
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 4: Daunte okay. And I feel like when this episode started,

570
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 4: because I watched did last night, I was like, I

571
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 4: can hear that.

572
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 6: I'm like a little more comfortable.

573
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm like laughing through the first line, and

574
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, that's there.

575
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: I am yeah, nice, I agree.

576
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 7: I mean, I guess I'm so you just said that.

577
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 7: I hadn't thought about that.

578
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 3: But you do sound very like like you've come into

579
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 3: your own and you've have like a sense of comfort

580
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 3: and like confidence and you're having you're.

581
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 4: Having It's like when you go to a party by

582
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 4: yourself and you're like you told all the boys to

583
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 4: meet there at seven and seven to fifteen.

584
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 6: You're like, I'm the only one here, and then they

585
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 6: come in and the whole new thing turns on.

586
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 4: Right Wait, the man that I was always here, why

00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: It is nerve wrecking. I mean yeah, And when you

00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: work with pros it gets a little you get a

593
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: little more nervous. I mean yeah, like yeah, ke macchister,

598
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 1: Did you decide if you wanted to be a standard

599
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: or a sitter?

600
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 7: Nobody said we all stood I was.

601
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,199
Speaker 1: A standard too. I'm definitely a standard. But there's so

602
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: many And that's there's so many sitters that are so

603
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: one hundred grand. There are sitters. I'd be like, oh no, oh,

Speaker 1: Delile is sitting down, great sitting, Kevin macution, They're all

606
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 1: sitting and I'm just standing, Like.

607
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 6: I wish I would have made that power move early on.

608
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 6: That's what I was going to say.

609
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 7: I didn't know that there was an option either. I

610
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 7: we all just went to our mics and stood. I

611
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 7: didn't know you could.

612
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 2: Uh, Vanessa your standard, I'm a standard. I stand one

613
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 2: hundred percent. The energy for me is good standing.

614
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, but some people, I'm so amazed that they're just

615
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: sitting and killing the game. Yeah, I know.

616
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 3: I think we're pretty I feel like all all five

617
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 3: of us are pretty like physical meaning there's like lots

618
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 3: of physicality even though we're voice acting. And probably for

619
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 3: some of us it's because we are on camera actors

620
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 3: primarily and then you know, trying to translate that into

621
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 3: a voice performance.

622
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 7: But yeah, I feel like all of us.

623
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 3: You know, Steve is like so big in his physicality,

624
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 3: especially playing zeb that there was always lots of like

625
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 3: I don't see how that man could have sat.

626
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 7: That would have been a tragedy.

627
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: You know. But yeah, don't get me a fight scene.

628
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: Don't get my content character in the fight scene, because

629
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: you will see me. I become a kng FU master

630
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: on that microphone, a Measley orange belt in real life

631
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: as a you know, year old kid, but on a microphone,

632
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 1: on like ten degree black belt. We're going in. Let's go.

633
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: I love it.

634
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 5: Oh, you're you're the grand grand Master at the microphone,

635
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 5: the grand grand Master. So, Dantelle, I want to circle

636
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 5: back to something you just said, because I find I

637
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 5: think are same. Sort of really appreciate your insights on

638
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 5: this because you do have such a long, illustrious career,

639
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 5: a very diverse career. But you talked about being a

640
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 5: guest star, which can be a daunting thing when you're

641
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 5: coming into a very familiar space. I just wonder in general,

642
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 5: if there's any insights you can share in terms of

643
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 5: aspiring actress that may be listening to our podcast of

644
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 5: if you could offer advice of obviously do that would

645
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 5: like know your work, know what you gotta do, but

646
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 5: there's anything that you've learned over that process of doing

647
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 5: hundreds of episodes of television that you would want to

648
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 5: pass on to people, because I think that could be

649
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 5: very valuable.

650
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay, first of all, we got to say guest

651
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: star because I'd said guest star on TikTok one time

652
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: and say, oh, you're like, we're really on on yourself.

653
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, I'm not. You're saying You're not saying

654
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,719
Speaker 1: you're a star. There's a title for the character that

655
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: comes out for an episode. They're called the guest star.

656
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: It's not us saying we're stars that are guesting on

657
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: the show. Title that a guest show who is you know,

658
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: as you guys know, the guest star has the main

659
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: character of that show. If you give us short lines,

660
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: they'll call you a co star role. These are like idols.

661
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: This is business titles you guys of when you're doing

662
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 1: your contract. It's a guest star contract, co star contract,

663
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: featured character meaning you have maybe five lines or less,

664
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: you're like a featured actor. So that's what we're talking about.

665
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: So when we say guest star, that means when you

666
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: watch the episode and it's whatever, growing pains, But then

667
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 1: there's that one kid that came on the episode is

668
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: the bully. He's the guest star of the episode.

669
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 7: Right, dancing yourself up right now?

670
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, up, the guest star of the Show's clarification. I

671
00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: never thought of that. I know what it sounds like,

672
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: but that's not what we're talking about. But as far

673
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: as advice goes, yeah, you know, when you come on

674
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: a show and you're guesting, it's daunting because you're the

675
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: thing about every show is it's a little families, right,

676
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 1: it's a little families, and you're coming in to hang

677
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: out with that family and you feel like an outsider

678
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: looking in, and uh, that's kind of like the whole gig.

679
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,959
Speaker 1: But you gotta you know, you got to remember they

680
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: hired you for a reason. There's a role that you're

681
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: playing that's very essential for whatever's going on, and uh,

682
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: everyone wants to see you succeed. Mora, you know what

683
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I mean there's stories obviously shows were like,

684
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: I don't think the person wants me wants me to

685
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: get fired, but more or less like the people that

686
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: hired you because they want you to succeed in this

687
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: role and there's something pivotal that you're supposed to be

688
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: doing that's gonna help their characters in the story that

689
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: they're doing ultimately. Right that being said, it's daunting. It's

690
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: it's we we've all been on shows and we're like,

691
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: don't have the full character yet. We feel like the

692
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: first before lunch, they're gonna fire me. They're gonna fire

693
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: me before lunch. They're gonna find out I'm not the

694
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: one for this situation. Uh, but I don't know what

695
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 1: the you know, you just gotta do your best and

696
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: go for I remember being you know, it's crazy, so

697
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,479
Speaker 1: I remember it when I was like I did a

698
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: guest star one time on the Fresh Prince of bel Air,

699
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: right right, Yeah, I was doing that and they brought

700

Speaker 1: me in and I'm playing Ashley, the daughter's boyfriend, and

701
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: so I mean there, but then the other guy, and

702
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: I'm nervous because I'm like, I don't I'm a fan

703
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 1: of the show.

704
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 5: Matter of fact, it's a multi camera, don't people know,

705
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 5: like how hard multi cameras are, Like multi so tough

706
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:32,719
Speaker 5: to do.

707
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: I was at a club called Bar One, like the

722
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 1: And during the table read on Mondays. When you do

723
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: a show, you shoot on Friday, usually just a table

724
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: read on Monday. We're just around the table reading the script. Right,

725
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 1: I'm just talking to the people out there. We all

726
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: know what the tablewad is. And Robin's next to me,

727
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 1: and I'm nervous, and then she leans into me. She says, hey,

728
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 1: don't you don't you hate being the guest star of

729
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,760
Speaker 1: the show, and like it's like a whole big family

730
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 1: here and just trying to like it looks like it

731
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 1: was judging you and stuff. And I'm like looking at

732
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 1: Robin like totally. So it just made me feel good that,

733
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: you know, other stars on the show are like feeling

734
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 1: what I'm feeling, and we're kind of like commit are

735
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: writing together. But in the end, you know, if you're

736
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 1: a young actor out there, the reality is you got it.

737
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: Bring it every time, even at the table read, bring it,

738
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 1: like the reason don't there's no cruising, there's no like

739
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 1: they hire me. I'm good I'm gonna bring it on

740
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: the day. I know people that got fired off of

741
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 1: the the table read, they're like, oh, this is the

742
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: wrong choice. It's like you're not the regular, the series

743
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: regular in the show. This is you, don't you know?

744
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: These series regulars have this job, they're contracted to have

745
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 1: this role through the whole season. You can get fired

746
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,959
Speaker 1: before lunch. You can better make sure you're constantly letting

747
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 1: them know that they've made the right choice. So never

748
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 1: cruise through your things, like constantly do your work on

749
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 1: the rehearsals, kill it, I mean, find new things. So

750
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 1: by the time you're shooting is like you're really on

751
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 1: point and you're just giving up the confidence of the

752
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: producers and the writers and the directors like we made

753
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,479
Speaker 1: the right choice. And then sometimes they bring you back

754
00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: and you then you become a recurring character, recurring the character.

755
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 9: Of recurring stars.

756
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 4: I'm just gonna you made a good point, Dante, that, like,

757
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 4: no matter what status you're at, like Robin Gibbons at

758
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 4: the time being very big, you always feel those nerves.

759
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 4: And I forget who told the story sent of like

760
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 4: they were on a set, uh, and it was Meryl

761
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 4: Streep and Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep is like, I

762
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 4: feel a little nervy with these. We just think that

763
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 4: she's in previous things. And she was like, can we

764
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 4: run lines? And they were like, Meryl Streep is over

765
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 4: here asking can we just run lines?

766
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 6: I want? I don't feel this yet, and I was

767
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 6: like it just goes.

768
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 4: To show no matter how far you go, you're always

769
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 4: just working and trying to do your best.

770
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: And I read like a premiere article back there. Meryl Streep,

771
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: she was like some movies coming on. She's like, I

772
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: just feel like this is my last thing. You know,

00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 3: Love that guy who hasn't like gone. You know, I

848
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 3: can't even tell you how many auditions I've had where

849
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 3: I'm like, how.

850
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 7: Could this possibly do me?

851
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,280
Speaker 6: But you know what, I'm going to give.

852
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 7: It my best shot, but like, how couldn't.

853
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,399
Speaker 4: But times have changed his starting like I started when

854
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 4: I was young, and like now it's way more like

855
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 4: that would never happen. But early on, especially being ambiguous

856
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 4: in a way, they can't really place you like that,

857
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 4: no one knew what I've played.

858
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 6: I mean, I just played out Franken.

859
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,280
Speaker 4: But the first role I ever played was John Loguizamo

860
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 4: and Rosie Prez's son, and they were speaking Spanish to

861
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 4: me in the first take. Brad Furman also Eligue friend

862
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 4: he had directed it. Do you remember Brad, Yeah, yeah, yeah.

863
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 4: So he was directing and he goes, Taylor, why are

864
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 4: you not speaking? And I was like, well, dude, I

865
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 4: don't know Spanish. I was like, wait, I thought you

866
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 4: were Colombian. I was like, what are you talking about?

867
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 4: And so I'm already on the job and talk about

868
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 4: that thing.

869
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 6: I was like. I went to my mom.

870
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 4: I was like, well, I'm obviously fired, and they're like no, no,

871
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 4: like just they're going to say Spanish to you. You

872
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,240
Speaker 4: just like not along and then they'll speak in English.

873
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 4: And I was like, I guess that's how it goes.

874
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 4: But now I feel like where we're at everything has

875
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,280
Speaker 4: changed and that things change.

876
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, like you know when you're like again

877
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,400
Speaker 1: a m being I'm Filipino. But it's very ambigu with

878
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 1: like half the roles, you can't wait to like have

879
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 1: the perfect role come to you. No one's driving that

880
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: particular roles. Like my career has been playing anything everything

881
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: from Asian to Latino to you know, maybe dub Donald

882
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: if you get luck. You know what I'm saying. It's

883
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 1: like these are the kind of things you're always I've

884
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 1: always been the other choice, like we can we can

885
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: go this way, or we can go with Dante and and.

886
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 5: That's the that's kind of the cool thing about because

887
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:33,800
Speaker 5: I remember Dante. And fun fact, my childhood friend neighbor

888
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,879
Speaker 5: was Jason Fisher, who worked with you, Yeah, who.

889
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 9: Played for Chicago. Yeah yeah, yeah, man, that's that's my guy.

890
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 9: We still we still keep in touch.

891
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,000
Speaker 5: Shout out to Jason Media, tell him please, well for sure,

892
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 5: I'll text him as soon as we're done here. But

893
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 5: I remember everybody wanted to be Rufio. And I'm not

894
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 5: saying that the blow smoke. That's just how it was.

895
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 5: But we didn't think of like, oh, it's the Asian

896
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 5: guy and Hook, like you had this way of just

897
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 5: like owning you like your Dante. You happen to be Philip,

898
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 5: you know, but you're a Dante.

899
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 1: Right, And I don't know, Yeah, with characters, man, hey,

900
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 1: you know that's one of those characters that yeah, you know,

901
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: I was fifteen when I did Hook, and uh, you know,

902
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: I always talk to young actors or any actors like, hey,

903
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 1: we all come to Hollywood from wherever we come from,

904
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: and you hope that you get to do something that

905
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 1: someone's gonna give to get. You know, you're gonna get

906
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: to care about later, you know what I'm saying. Like

907
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: you and you don't know when that character is gonna come,

908
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: and you don't even know if you're gonna actually even

909
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 1: like that character, you know what I'm saying. Because we

910
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:43,000
Speaker 1: don't know what characters kind of enter the zeitgeist. I

911
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 1: am thankful that one of the characters is this cool kid,

912
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. In it Silberg Movie and

913
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,919
Speaker 1: the Stilberg Movie and most the most phenomenal. Now now

914
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: that movie is like thirty years old and I look

915
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 1: back on it, and the most amazing thing when we

916
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: talk about that film is, look, you guys, I'm like

917
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 1: this little brown kid from the Breakdancer. You know, they

918
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: became an artist, and through storytelling, we infiltrated a fairy tale,

919
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 1: like a fairy tale, like there's fandoms and there's ips,

920
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,359
Speaker 1: and we're a part of those things and loved being

921
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,880
Speaker 1: a part of things. Peter Pan has been around longer

922
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: than any of us on the planet Earth has been alive,

923
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,919
Speaker 1: and it's going to be around well after we're all gone,

924
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:30,960
Speaker 1: and somehow this fairy tale forevermore canon. It's gonna be

925
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: this little brown kid with a try hawk running around

926
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 1: and it's phenomenal. And you're like, I don't you know,

927
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 1: like once upon a time they prefer to Rufio again

928
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 1: later on and it's like, oh my, Like it's just

929
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: part of what is in this world of Neverland and

930
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 1: another dimension. And I think that's the amazing thing what

931
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: we do, that we're able to kind of be a

932
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: part of stories and be a part of great stories

933
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:01,800
Speaker 1: and these things live on in people's hearts and souls

934
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 1: and minds and imaginations, and why didn't the scope of

935
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,280
Speaker 1: what is possible? You know what I'm saying, Like people

936
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 1: send me pictures all the time of them going to

937
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 1: Dissyland or or or you know, dressing for Halloween, and

938
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: like someone's like Captain Hook and someone's Peter Pan and

939
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 1: someone's tinker Bell, and then someone is representing this little

940
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:23,799
Speaker 1: brown boy and like ripped jeans and red mohawks, and

941
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:29,839
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, that is frigging phenomenal, and so yeah,

942
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: I love that. And I don't know, you know, people

943
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 1: like you you like I was a young actress fifteen,

944
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 1: and I'm very serious actor at the time that I'm

945
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 1: not serious now, but I was very serious at the time.

946
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 1: And my whole thing was like I gotta go up

947
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 1: against Dustin Hoffmann and Robin Williams. So I was like

948
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 1: just every day trying to go up against God's I

949
00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 1: felt like, you know, you feel like you feel like

950
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,240
Speaker 1: you're going on set every day trying to battle gods

951
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: and they're and it was it was great. It's great

952
00:45:58,640 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 1: to look at it now. It was nerve wreck.

953
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 5: Oh you went toe to toe with Rainman and Morc

954
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 5: you know, I mean at age fifteen, that's the task.

955
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 5: And I want to bring this up too, because we

956
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 5: have a very Asian centric podcast today and Venaso, you

957
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 5: grew up going to the Korean church. You're pretty much

958
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 5: I'm been stowing upon you honorary Korean American status.

959
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 2: Go.

960
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 5: We've talked about this before, where Star Wars was. People

961
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,320
Speaker 5: know it was taken from Japanese cinema, hitting forgers, kudasala,

962
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 5: so many Asians, even with the way the Jedi fight

963
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 5: with lightsabers, straight up kendo. You know, it's all Asian things,

964
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 5: but very scarce until recent time, right, very scarce amount

965
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 5: of Asia. I think we have more Asians on our

966
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 5: podcast today than a New Hope had total, or maybe

967
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 5: it higher trilogy total. There's a fact check for.

968
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 10: You, JC.

969
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 1: It was a different error.

970
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, But like that's that's the beauty of

971
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,319
Speaker 5: these platforms like a podcast, where we can bring those

972
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 5: things up and it's not to like, you know, point

973
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 5: a finger in anybody. It's like, this is where we

974
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 5: are now, this is what the circumstances are. But I

975
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 5: don't really have a question. It's just pointing out that

976
00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 5: the fact that we had this show in particular Star

977
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 5: Wars Rebels, and when I heard that, I was like,

978
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 5: I was like, oh, two circs like Southeast Asian, Like yeah,

979
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 5: I always swore we're not supposed to on this vodka.

980
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 5: And whenever I see more Asian brothers and sisters on it,

981
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:13,080
Speaker 5: and then Taylor being Filipino and then Dante's on an episode,

982
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 5: I'm like, okay, there's and now Dynall and Osanto being

983
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 5: Morganelles been and you know, like more of it, and

984
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 5: then Paul Lee from Kim's Convenience coming on, you know,

985
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 5: like there's more and more.

986
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, it's just so it's just.

987
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 5: That's what's cool to me because when I found out

988
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 5: where George got the inspiration for Star Wars, like it's

989
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 5: like all these Japanese things but you know, got no

990
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 5: likes cats in it.

991
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,920
Speaker 1: But now it's a different time. It's a different time, but.

992
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,479
Speaker 5: Well here that we can talk about and again what's

993
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 5: done is done, but it's carving this new path of

994
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 5: where we are talking about where we were, but carving

995
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 5: a new path of where we can go.

996
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 9: And that's the beauty of art.

997
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 5: You know, because you know you've all I admire all

998
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,719
Speaker 5: of you as artists and you've always owned what you do.

999
00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,360
Speaker 5: But now it's like, let's let's stay the quiet part loud,

1000
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 5: which ye, it's the other meaning a pot of rebellion.

1001
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,799
Speaker 5: We're kind of right there.

1002
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:06,879
Speaker 1: It's always been around the culture, I mean, in these

1003
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: even before those days, like you know, Magnificent seven was

1004
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 1: seven Samurai and Carousel was such an amazing prolific influential artists.

1005
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 1: But even coming to this new fandom world and all

1006
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: these ips, so much has been far from from Asian

1007
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 1: culture inspired by Asian culture, anim may now inspiring everything.

1008
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 1: I remember when when I started going to comic cons,

1009
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 1: and again I talk a lot about Asian empowerment and

1010
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 1: you know, just identity. Like hey, you guys, like I know,

1011
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 1: we're always saying we're discriminating at this or this and that,

1012
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 1: but you gotta see what you scale too. And comic

1013
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 1: Con was one of those places where when you go

1014
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,839
Speaker 1: to Santa Comic Con, I'm like, you go, look at

1015
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 1: the signs and Sante A Comic Con, which is the

1016
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: mecca of all comic cons, right, and it says that

1017
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 1: the biggest convention for the modern arts, the biggest convention

1018
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 1: for the modern arts in the world, and everyone at

1019
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 1: Comic Con h they kind of everyone respects Asian culture

1020
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 1: in a way that it's the actually only community that

1021
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:11,759
Speaker 1: I can think of popular community where being Asian is

1022
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 1: more sought after than anything. So if you look at

1023
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 1: the hip hop community or sports community, everyone's being a

1024
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: little more African American. If you look at arian communities,

1025
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: everyone's kind of whether you're a black, white, or other,

1026
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:28,400
Speaker 1: you're leaning more European, white dressing everything. Right, you go

1027
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:33,200
Speaker 1: to a comic con, an anime con, whether you're black, white, Asian, Latino,

1028
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 1: everyone's speaking some Japanese or Korean, everyone's kowhi every it's

1029
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: the the Asian this is everyone's leaning more Asian. And

1030
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 1: it's like there's something there and it's fascinating and it's interesting,

1031
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 1: and you're seeing how cultures interacting in different places and

1032
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 1: within this fandom world. And I guess it goes back

1033
00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: as far as Star Wars earlier, where George, you know,

1034
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 1: it's like they're leaning into Asian art. Essentially, of the

1035
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:06,279
Speaker 1: modern arts, there's so many masters that we all look

1036
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 1: to and we're all inspired by, and it's just kind

1037
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 1: of coming out in other ways how they express it

1038
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:15,239
Speaker 1: through their experiences. But there's a lot of the source

1039
00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 1: stuff is coming from Asian masters, which is a phenomenon.

1040
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 5: I don't know what I have to follow that. I mean,

1041
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:23,120
Speaker 5: I know we were supposed to go over an episode

1042
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 5: today it was this. I was so like, I love

1043
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 5: these insights and the stories you offer telling and I

1044
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:30,359
Speaker 5: feel like you took me back to twenty thirteen when

1045
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:31,799
Speaker 5: you recorded it, Like I felt like I was in

1046
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,319
Speaker 5: the booth with you, and you're a great story. Will

1047
00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:35,960
Speaker 5: you come back, Dante, Like I feel like we can

1048
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,640
Speaker 5: do we can do a whole Asian centered like bonus episode,

1049
00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 5: because we're planning to do bonus episodes in the.

1050
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,879
Speaker 1: Podcast that and I think I love that. And look,

1051
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,319
Speaker 1: we didn't know we're Asian, like coming to Hollywood. I

1052
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,839
Speaker 1: came in like eighty forty five, didn't no, well, we

1053
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 1: didn't know one knew what the heck guy was. I

1054
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,319
Speaker 1: didn't know. You're too young. You don't even know what

1055
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 1: you are and I'm ten years old. Like you have

1056
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,360
Speaker 1: no identity, you know, there's no you don't even have

1057
00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 1: identity yet. You just my Danny was like, I'm a dancer,

1058
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 1: So like when it's an audition, it was time for

1059
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 1: me to come and it's like going in the middle

1060
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,800
Speaker 1: of the circle and doing your thing, you know what

1061
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But later on, as life started going on,

1062
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that you start to do roles and

1063
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:17,080
Speaker 1: people start seeing themselves in some of the roles you're doing.

1064
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:20,439
Speaker 1: In the eighties, you know, I remember talking to people,

1065
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, you know what's crazy. It is

1066
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: like when I did a role and it has something

1067
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:25,960
Speaker 1: like you're doing a guest star or you're doing some

1068
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 1: kind of role that is significant for people, especially in America,

1069
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,719
Speaker 1: it would be one of a handful of roles that

1070
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 1: they would see an Asian person do in their lifetime,

1071
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 1: and they if they did not live by any age,

1072
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 1: people especially at that time, it's like, oh, that's one

1073
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:45,920
Speaker 1: of the five Asian people I've ever seen do anything

1074
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,919
Speaker 1: significant that has made me think or touch or think

1075
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 1: of them. Right, It's like you and long duck dung,

1076
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 1: and you go like it or not. People are going

1077
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:59,640
Speaker 1: to make assumptions and think about full on, you know,

1078
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,279
Speaker 1: full on race or culture based on one of the

1079
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:06,720
Speaker 1: five things that they've experienced thus far. In their life

1080
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: of whatever they're seeing and so not that that was

1081
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: going I didn't let I don't want that to be

1082
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 1: a something that ruled me. But that's something that you

1083
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 1: had to think about as an artist, like, Okay, do

1084
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 1: I want to do this, Dude? Do I want this

1085
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 1: to be one of the five things, the one of

1086
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,799
Speaker 1: ten things. Great that now things have changed is like

1087
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 1: a broader scope of people seeing. But especially in the

1088
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:30,480
Speaker 1: eighties early nineties, I was one of maybe five or

1089
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 1: ten Asian characters that they may have seen their whole lives.

1090
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:36,839
Speaker 1: It's part of it. But it's great to know now

1091
00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:39,640
Speaker 1: that it was we were more than just what they saw.

1092
00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 1: There was the essence of what was going on has

1093
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,960
Speaker 1: always been around and we're able to kind of feel

1094
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,040
Speaker 1: that more, experience that more and see And I love

1095
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 1: that that we're part of the nerds because the nerd

1096
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 1: scene investigates and knows and you know, talks about it.

1097
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 1: It's a part of it. So it's it's important. I

1098
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:57,800
Speaker 1: don't know, we can talk about it all day, John, we

1099
00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 1: talked about.

1100
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 5: All yeah, we will. We will definitely do like some

1101
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,600
Speaker 5: bonus episodes on that. But so now in the subject

1102
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 5: of investigating. I feel like that's a nice segu way

1103
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 5: to JC, even though we were light on episode specifics.

1104
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 5: I feel like you're going about to see Jc's always

1105
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,000
Speaker 5: got some great.

1106
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:17,400
Speaker 6: Highlight of the podcast. He probably it was some deep,

1107
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 6: deep dives. We didn't give him too much to investigate.

1108
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 10: But all right, yeah, I don't have a lot. The

1109
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 10: first thing I want to do, John, Earlier in the episode,

1110
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,240
Speaker 10: you made a reference to Darth Vader's line, the circle

1111
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:33,560
Speaker 10: is complete, actual line, The circle is now complete.

1112
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 9: Okay.

1113
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 10: I just want to make sure that nobody who has

1114
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:39,640
Speaker 10: the movies memorized like I do is offended by that.

1115
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 5: No, because they will add at me before that. So

1116
00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:44,319
Speaker 5: I think, good looking out. I appreciate it.

1117
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 10: You mentioned November twenty fourteen, there is something big with

1118
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 10: Force Awakens. In November twenty fourteen, November sixth, they announced

1119
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 10: the title would be The Force Awakens. I just want

1120
00:53:57,600 --> 00:53:59,839
Speaker 10: to clear up. Look, if you've gone this far, I'm

1121
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 10: sure we've already googled it. When we are talking with

1122
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:05,920
Speaker 10: Dante about Avatar, we are not talking about James Cameron

1123
00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,319
Speaker 10: and the Way of Water. We're talking about the last

1124
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:14,680
Speaker 10: Vender cartoon. So there's that mentioned Sagerera. Sagerera does voice

1125
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 10: Forest Whittaker does voice Sagerera. We saw him first in

1126
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:23,279
Speaker 10: Rogue one, and then he does Star Wars Rebels as

1127
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,760
Speaker 10: well episodes Ghosts of Geonosis, which is season three episodes

1128
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 10: twelve and thirteen, and in season four episodes three and

1129
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:34,800
Speaker 10: four called in the Name of Rebellion. Forest Whittaker ties

1130
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 10: into Star Wars in many many ways there and then

1131
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:43,240
Speaker 10: just at the very end Asian representation in the original trilogy.

1132
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,840
Speaker 10: There's nothing in a New Hope. There's nothing in Empire

1133
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,120
Speaker 10: Strikes Back. In Return of the Jedi, there is a

1134
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 10: b Wing pilot briefly on screen who crashes. I believe

1135
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:58,640
Speaker 10: they named Lieutenant Telsey is the in universe name played

1136
00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 10: by I'm going a this pronounces but it's like Eji

1137
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:07,879
Speaker 10: uh Kusahara as the actor. And then nothing in episode one,

1138
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:11,320
Speaker 10: nothing in episode two. In episode three, there's one guy

1139
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 10: sitting in Palpatine's office that they call uh malay D

1140
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 10: because he was just referred to as male Senator. Was

1141
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:23,200
Speaker 10: the character in the script, and he is played by

1142
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 10: Key Chan And coincidentally, we're talking about the influence of Ruffeo.

1143
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 10: Malay D has a red mohawk in the moo.

1144
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:33,600
Speaker 6: How did that so?

1145
00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 10: Somebody?

1146
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 1: Thank you?

1147
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:41,800
Speaker 10: Yeah, somebody who grew up watching Hook pulled that and

1148
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,879
Speaker 10: dropped it in Palpatine's office for US two thousand and five.

1149
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 1: I love this information.

1150
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:51,240
Speaker 9: That's great.

1151
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:52,160
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

1152
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 3: I was going to say we can talk in our

1153
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:57,560
Speaker 3: later episode when Dante comes back about how pivotal all

1154
00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 3: of those roles that Jac just meant.

1155
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,800
Speaker 7: Oh, did any of those people have speaking the roles?

1156
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:12,400
Speaker 5: I know, so let it be known that we have

1157
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 5: more Asians on today's episode than the prequels.

1158
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 7: I have one question for Dante.

1159
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:24,759
Speaker 3: I mean, I've asked you a bunch of questions, but

1160
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:26,600
Speaker 3: one question, one more question for now.

1161
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 7: I've always wanted to ask you.

1162
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:33,400
Speaker 3: How often are we talking like a weekly basis, daily basis?

1163
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 3: How often do people like strangers passing you by chant

1164
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:43,239
Speaker 3: rufeo rufeo to you? Like in my mind, I want

1165
00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:44,280
Speaker 3: it to be like daily.

1166
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:48,759
Speaker 1: It could be. I mean, you know, it's a generational thing.

1167
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: There's like a whole Rufio generation and a whole generation, sure,

1168
00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:58,000
Speaker 1: and so, but I mean, at any at any given

1169
00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:01,439
Speaker 1: time I've been in cafes on mail Rose or someone

1170
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 1: would just honk and yelled, Bangering.

1171
00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 6: Is this scrillic song with that?

1172
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:13,360
Speaker 1: Yeah? No way, yes, So banger Ring is so scrilled,

1173
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,920
Speaker 1: so sunny. So I've known Sunny since he was like

1174
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:19,440
Speaker 1: twelve or so, ten or twelve, and then I had

1175
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 1: not seen years. And then I ran to him at

1176
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 1: the Paramount Grammy party. He's like, did you hear the song?

1177

00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:33,920
Speaker 1: scream old band before he was this big DJ, and

1181
00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 1: I guess we feel one of his kind of things too.
