Speaker 2: Was there any Was there anyone that you guys were
Speaker 2: actually excited to work with in this film?
Speaker 7: Yeah? I mean everybody.
Speaker 8: I mean, working working with Kat was awesome though, you know,
Speaker 8: I mean he's he was Kat Williams. One time he
Speaker 8: came to my trailer his first day, like hello, mister director,
Speaker 8: Cat Williams reporting for duty, and then he was in
Speaker 8: character the whole time.
Speaker 7: For sure. It just a pro, you know, and really
Speaker 7: brought it. For sure.
Speaker 1: This is your first feature?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 7: It is? Yep? What was it like?
Speaker 2: I don't even know if com up?
Speaker 4: Give it up.
Speaker 6: I've been wanting to ask you this question respectfully because Keiki,
Speaker 6: we've seen her for so many years directing Susan next
Speaker 6: to Keiki, were their moments in her first feature and
Speaker 6: with yours where you were like, oh, Kibuta, be like,
Speaker 6: oh that's wrong.
Speaker 8: No, actually no, because you know, having somebody like Kecky
Speaker 8: Palmer who can elevate scenes no matter first time actor,
Speaker 8: twenty times actor that gave me so much confidence, and
Speaker 8: knowing that Scissa can really bring it, and also Scissor
Speaker 8: to me is Alyssa in real life, so we kind
Speaker 8: of leaned into a lot of her personal attributes which
Speaker 8: made her performance so wrong.
Speaker 4: So y'all may not know.
Speaker 2: Lawrence also directed Rap Shit with Isa, and so give
Speaker 2: it up for rap Shit? So did that help prepare
Speaker 2: you to deal with two leading ladies as the stars?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 8: And I was raised by women too, so I was
Speaker 8: already Yeah, it definitely helped me.
Speaker 7: It's rap shit, was you know? I missed that show?
Speaker 7: It was.
Speaker 8: It was a fun time, but it definitely prepared me to,
Speaker 8: you know, really get it going.
Speaker 7: But they're pros. I mean, it made it really easy
Speaker 7: for me.
Speaker 1: Sissa was so impressed as to me, were y'all not wild?
Speaker 2: Yes? Seriously she was, even though to me she was
Speaker 2: the villain. But what Alyssa, Kiki? I got a question
Speaker 2: for you real quick. You read the script right, so
Speaker 2: mind you. We also just talked about you've been a
Speaker 2: spelling beach champ. You've been in a sci fi film.
Speaker 2: I've been pimping these girls out. I can't keep up.
Speaker 4: That's a d cut, you know what I mean. No,
Speaker 4: that's the one.
Speaker 2: So when you saw this script, I do want to
Speaker 2: know if you lean towards like, were you able to
Speaker 2: kind of lean towards the character you wanted? Did you
Speaker 2: go with Drew first, did you go with Alyssa? Did
Speaker 2: you view Alyssa as the billing like this could never be?
Speaker 5: You know? In my mind, it's like I love both
Speaker 5: of those characters, So I mean, there is a universe
Speaker 5: where I will why I could be Alyssa, you know
Speaker 5: what I mean?
Speaker 4: Like, I love that character.
Speaker 5: There's so much nuance to it because really she's just
Speaker 5: they both are the same person, but they're dealing with
Speaker 5: it differently. They've been a hard situation trying to figure
Speaker 5: out how to make it out. My character, Drew is
Speaker 5: very type A. Alyssa's like I gotta go with the flocalus.
Speaker 5: This shit crazy and I need to say it too,
Speaker 5: you know.
Speaker 4: So it's like.
Speaker 5: They deal with their trans tribulations different ways, but that's
Speaker 5: why of their best friends.
Speaker 4: And so I love both of the characters.
Speaker 5: But I ended up being like, okay, Drew, especially because
Speaker 5: when we've seen my chemistry with Sissy, just like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 5: she's Alyssa for y'all friends.
Speaker 1: Before it felt very like y'all were working together for years.
Speaker 4: I don't know why we had that chemistry like that.
Speaker 5: It was just from the jump, Like when I met
Speaker 5: her on S and L it was very quick because
Speaker 5: we both She was preparing for performing, I was preparing
Speaker 5: for the sketches and stuff. But then when we did
Speaker 5: the first chemistry read I mean, Lawrence, you know, it
Speaker 5: was like did y'all know for ten years? Like did
Speaker 5: y'all rehearse before y'all got into this first chemistry?
Speaker 7: No, it really was.
Speaker 8: And even when the cameras cut, it was like, man,
Speaker 8: we should still be rolling because they did the best friend.
Speaker 7: Energy just carried over.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I think we really just like each other,
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: I remember when we did the I went and hung
Speaker 5: out with her before we did the big chemistry test
Speaker 5: for the for the you know studio and everything.
Speaker 4: Y'all got drunk and we wasn't her well, she did
Speaker 4: get me high, and I was like.
Speaker 5: Oh, it is just a strong So we we was
Speaker 5: in her trailer while she was getting ready to perform
Speaker 5: for the Grammys, and I was just like, we can
Speaker 5: do this movie together because we was in there talk
Speaker 5: first of all tiger lore, okay, we was always getting
Speaker 5: into some tea, oh not the gospel, just living and
Speaker 5: I was like, okay, you know what, we can do
Speaker 5: this movie in twenty days if it's me and her.
Speaker 4: So wait, that is the truth. That's the two. Y'all
Speaker 4: filmed this movie in.
Speaker 8: Three weeks, really really twenty two and a half days.
Speaker 2: Now, what is the average time in y'all's experienced, like
Speaker 2: thirty five forty days?
Speaker 7: I fifty sixty.
Speaker 5: Yeah, But I say it depends on the budget, depends
Speaker 5: on what's happening. I mean, I just I did a
Speaker 5: movie before it was four months and we at all
Speaker 5: this time. Sometimes they don't get you a lot of time.
Speaker 5: It's just like the nature of the business. So this
Speaker 5: one they said twenty two days, and we all loved it.
Speaker 5: Yeah he strapped on still we do.
Speaker 8: At first it was twenty days, and then some circumstances happened.
Speaker 8: We end up losing a day because we were shooting
Speaker 8: the Jungles and they.
Speaker 5: Told us to get up out o no, no, no, no,
Speaker 5: no build on that.
Speaker 4: Did they really?
Speaker 8: I mean it was that they was like, yoall, I
Speaker 8: mean we were good, right, we had well, well, did.
Speaker 2: Y'all see whatever about it?
Speaker 8: It was two instances actually, So one instance we were
Speaker 8: shooting on on Crenshaw.
Speaker 7: And don't get me wrong, I've shot.
Speaker 8: A lot of stuff in LA and the hoods andels
Speaker 8: in the hoods about this country. And I know we
Speaker 8: gotta pay the ambassadors.
Speaker 7: That's important.
Speaker 8: And we did pay some people, but they didn't know
Speaker 8: that we paid them until the next day.
Speaker 4: Check a clear sim little gulls came out. They're like,
Speaker 4: you need to get a pot.
Speaker 8: Yeah he's thirteen, but he's yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Not. The Waller boys was checking and they gotta like
Speaker 2: check in when you come to me.
Speaker 7: Yeah, they banged on us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Well we like to do like hypotheticals, right,
Speaker 2: And since we're talking about money, I would like to
Speaker 2: know if y'all had more of a budget, more time,
Speaker 2: is there a scene that you envisioned that you would
Speaker 2: have liked to like put into that or maybe another
Speaker 2: factor to come in.
Speaker 8: And like, you know, you know what, I really feel
Speaker 8: like we capture lightning in a bottle.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 8: I think our circumstances is why the film has become
Speaker 8: what it it is. Sure, if we have more time,
Speaker 8: I would have loved to get more coverage and do
Speaker 8: more stuff and get more takes and scenes. But I
Speaker 8: think it was something about the pressure of twenty twenty
Speaker 8: one days with them racing the clock to make Rent
Speaker 8: that kind of intertwined and made made it.
Speaker 4: It was Lawrence, you two media trained for me.
Speaker 2: So now, because men can make money quicker than women,
Speaker 2: I feel like I want to throw it out there,
Speaker 2: if you had fifteen hundred dollars to make in one day,
Speaker 2: what you would do as a man, I would like
Speaker 2: to know.
Speaker 1: You don't know.
Speaker 7: I don't even know. I'm probably gonna ask family for friends.
Speaker 7: Y'all heard the wrong thing.
Speaker 6: I like, Lawrence, can I tell you what our podcast
Speaker 6: used to be going. It used to be called horrible Decisions.
Speaker 7: Okay, so give.
Speaker 4: Us your horrible decision.
Speaker 8: No, I'm not doing no horrible decisions.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, God, honestly, I'm gonna let y'all know right now.
Speaker 4: I told you once. I'm gonna tell you again. It's
Speaker 4: these feats. They're going up online. The feet. I'm going
Speaker 4: up online.
Speaker 5: They're gonna be mashing potatoes, mashing hot dogs, whatever needs
Speaker 5: to be done.
Speaker 6: But you know what's crazy, Actually was getting ready for that.
Speaker 6: I'm like to when you put on that ring, I say,
Speaker 6: the feet coming out. I'm so Actually it was earlier.
Speaker 8: It was an earlier draft where it was where they
Speaker 8: they met the old hooker, old hooker and she, uh.
Speaker 7: She tried to help them make the money, but they
Speaker 7: still didn't work.
Speaker 2: But you know what, I'm so mad that we need
Speaker 2: the y'all shot. Did y'all shoot that at all?
Speaker 4: It was one of the scripts.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, my mind went straight to amateur night, asking
Speaker 2: someone you get on the phone.
Speaker 8: But by six o'clock, though, you know, you know what
Speaker 8: I'm saying about six right to the club. They didn't
Speaker 8: know the day before. Yeah, and then strip clubs. Drew
Speaker 8: was sleepy the whole time, you know.
Speaker 6: Okay, Now, speaking of strip club I always was saying
Speaker 6: that would be my alternative job, Like I'm gonna be
Speaker 6: a bad stripper, but I'm fun, you know, like when
Speaker 6: you have a bad waitress that you're like, but she's sweet.
Speaker 4: It's the talkers.
Speaker 6: So if you had an alternate job, because you've been
Speaker 6: an actress for so long, what would you be good at?
Speaker 4: I mean, I definitely think I would be I mean
Speaker 4: I'm good at doing hair.
Speaker 5: I would really lay your hair out, bust down, period,
Speaker 5: Like I would give you a good ass, but I
Speaker 5: could give you some braids.
Speaker 4: And I'm gonna talk with you because I love to
Speaker 4: get into the teat So what did Tan, Dude? What
Speaker 4: happened with Tyson? You go with Blass?
Speaker 5: I'm here for that because hairstylists are therapists but also creatives,
Speaker 5: and I feel like, you.
Speaker 2: Know that's what actress are. You know, you suck people
Speaker 2: into conversation. I was every time oh no, all of
Speaker 2: y'all say something, My mind is going somewhere else.
Speaker 6: I was on a vacation with Kiki in Mexico. I
Speaker 6: don't know if you remember this. Of course, this girl
Speaker 6: started talking to you about a problem she had.
Speaker 1: We all outside, like, what's Kiki doing?
Speaker 7: She was like that.
Speaker 4: Go here right now? Like that you really jump into therapy?
Speaker 5: Mo?
Speaker 4: I do?
Speaker 5: Because just like in the thing, I'm a ride or die. Okay,
Speaker 5: if you going through a trouble, let's get into it.
Speaker 5: Do we need to pull up on them?
Speaker 4: What I'm gonna play? I'm not wrong?
Speaker 2: What would be the thing about Drew that most relates
Speaker 2: to you as a person?
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, that scene with Drew in there talking
Speaker 5: to you know, doing her interview. That makes me think
Speaker 5: about me in the industry all day long. I'm a host,
Speaker 5: I'm an actress, I'm a singer, I'm a dance So
Speaker 5: what you.
Speaker 4: Need, what you got? What I can own a company,
Speaker 4: Give me a chance. Just give me a chance just
Speaker 4: for the community.
Speaker 5: That's me to a tea like just trying to make
Speaker 5: any corporate America. You know what I'm saying, Like whatever
Speaker 5: your skill set is for me was entertainment and you
Speaker 5: know obviously that has its own bubble, but really it's
Speaker 5: an industry. So all my life I've a required so many
Speaker 5: different skills to maintain and be able to figure out
Speaker 5: how to make my life, my family life is better.
Speaker 5: So for me that scene what drew up in there
Speaker 5: being like I can do all the things, just give
Speaker 5: me a chance.
Speaker 2: Well, we like to react, and we do want to
Speaker 2: react to the themes in this movie because a lot
Speaker 2: of y'all was laughing, a lot of y'all was like
Speaker 2: who when the guy came out the room, y'all was
Speaker 2: like man. When sisl lost money'all was like man. The
Speaker 2: emotions I felt dearing this entire room watching the movie
Speaker 2: was vast. So I do want to know what boundaries
Speaker 2: that both of you have made with friendships, because I
Speaker 2: don't think Drew had any with Alissa, honestly, because when we.
Speaker 6: Got to see in the first ten minutes Amanda moved
Speaker 6: in your house, it really made us sit there and say,
Speaker 6: what do you say?
Speaker 5: No, I mean, if we're talking about living with people,
Speaker 5: go your man is living here, because if that's the
Speaker 5: point that you should go live with him period. So
Speaker 5: we're not doing all that, but you could need a home.
Speaker 6: When you got a homeless though, tell me have you
Speaker 6: had any situations with friends that kind of reminded you
Speaker 6: like a listen, like a little bit delusional or using
Speaker 6: delusion crystals.
Speaker 5: Either of you, I mean all of the buff Yeah,
Speaker 5: and I've been the person too, Like you know what
Speaker 5: I mean. I feel like I've gotten into crazy situations,
Speaker 5: and I feel like that's the funny thing, right, Like,
Speaker 5: depending on which combination of bestie you're with at the time,
Speaker 5: you could be Drew or Lissla. Like I've been Drew before,
Speaker 5: but then I've also been a listen to it. I'm like, sorry, boo,
Speaker 5: you know like them both. What about you, Lawrence? Yeah,
Speaker 5: I think you said.
Speaker 4: Your type A. You're not doing the crystals the manifestation,
Speaker 4: but you do that.
Speaker 8: But I do journal with a plan. I got a
Speaker 8: plan from the glasses. Yeah, I really do. I really do,
Speaker 8: you know. But I definitely feel like I'm more Drew.
Speaker 8: But I grew up around at all. You know, my
Speaker 8: mom was Drew and Alyssa a little more a listener.
Speaker 8: So that's one of the ways I found my way
Speaker 8: into this movie. But I'm definitely Drew. I'm not about
Speaker 8: to be given.
Speaker 6: Y'all are both type A. Susan kind of gives a
Speaker 6: listen in real life? Tell us about a time on
Speaker 6: set something we didn't see that was just super memorable.
Speaker 6: All of you together and even characters we haven't.
Speaker 7: Seen got a moment.
Speaker 8: I mean, we were shooting the pay day scene, which
Speaker 8: was one of the most fun scenes. Is fun on
Speaker 8: the screen, but I just remember how funny it was.
Speaker 8: It was a scene where the script we didn't know
Speaker 8: how if it will play because they sitting down.
Speaker 7: It's not that with physical comedy. They just back and forth.
Speaker 8: The first couple of takes, though, I remember saying, cut,
Speaker 8: I'm going in and give some those directions and stuff
Speaker 8: her and Sissa on the ground, laughing like it's we
Speaker 8: got tears in our eyes, they kicking their feet of laughing.
Speaker 8: So it was a lot of little moments like that.
Speaker 8: But that's something I definitely remember. I think it translates
Speaker 8: on screen.
Speaker 1: You know the woman, can I get her name? Curb
Speaker 1: your enthusiasm?
Speaker 7: Yes, she's a curse.
Speaker 2: So good that Can I ask you if any of
Speaker 2: that coming from from Curb was any of that improvised?
Speaker 2: A lot of it, A lot of that, Yeah, for sure,
Speaker 2: she killed that. Now I do want y'all to know
Speaker 2: because this is the decisions decisions for eight years, I
Speaker 2: have let everyone know that I do not like blood.
Speaker 4: Oh we loved you know, James hate.
Speaker 2: Blood, right, and so if you're watching a comedy, you
Speaker 2: don't think you're gonna go like this, y'all.
Speaker 4: I covered my eyes for I was like, I was like, now.
Speaker 1: What is this?
Speaker 4: That was a choice?
Speaker 2: It was was that scene always written out like I
Speaker 2: have a few questions for that scene was ridiculous.
Speaker 5: It was when I tell you that we were shooting
Speaker 5: that because it was so much that you have to
Speaker 5: do it with the special effects and getting the shot
Speaker 5: and getting the set up and everybody gotta get that
Speaker 5: close up.
Speaker 4: It was just so much.
Speaker 5: But I remember when they got to finally doing the blood,
Speaker 5: we just started dumping blood.
Speaker 4: It was correct that one dude was like.
Speaker 7: That white and we only had one take to do.
Speaker 4: How many takes did y'all do with that? Like how
Speaker 4: many times did you clean the rooms?
Speaker 7: We would have time.
Speaker 8: Over, So we just rehearsed it like crazy and just
Speaker 8: hyper planning to have three cameras roll over.
Speaker 5: Somehow sisters still looks sexy that she was like like.
Speaker 4: We still get the money that electrocution.
Speaker 6: I was like, yeah, to here, now tell me this
Speaker 6: for people that have never seen a movie being made
Speaker 6: or really don't understand. Even you said twenty days, I'm like,
Speaker 6: that sounds too fast, But then you say forty for
Speaker 6: a scene like that being at a special fast how
Speaker 6: many hours are you doing that?
Speaker 7: I mean that was the whole day.
Speaker 4: That was so we had to do it quick. But
Speaker 4: I think a lot of KI said, I know the time,
Speaker 4: A lot of first a lot of movies would do
Speaker 4: with that scene, that one scene for two or three days.
Speaker 5: Yes, so that's like to be like, okay, we really
Speaker 5: getting all our time that a scene like that could
Speaker 5: take two or three days. We did it in like yeah,
Speaker 5: it was like twenty four hours. It was like the
Speaker 5: whole day. Why the whole day twenty four hours? Well, honestly,
Speaker 5: that same was because we shot that whole sequence that
Speaker 5: that was a lot that bad.
Speaker 7: So we did that scene probably with in like four hours.
Speaker 6: So in twenty days, you had to have your hair
Speaker 6: out like that, and the whole time you had your
Speaker 6: hair no.
Speaker 4: So that was a wig, thank god, dang right, that
Speaker 4: was a good wig.
Speaker 2: Another films filmed in twenty days without them wigs. Girl,
Speaker 2: that wave was cute.
Speaker 6: I got another question. So I saw maud alpat right,
Speaker 6: and we know her mom and what I mean like
Speaker 6: her family.
Speaker 2: Man, seeing so many big celebrities like that is that favorite.
Speaker 1: Y'all got to call in, how is this? How does
Speaker 1: this work?
Speaker 2: Let's start son, We got Keith, we got sizzor whin.
Speaker 7: That's all they said.
Speaker 4: They said, Kiki in.
Speaker 7: And everybody came honestly.
Speaker 8: Honestly though, I mean, you know, was Key and I
Speaker 8: kind of got attached around the same time. And I
Speaker 8: think that was you know what the strikes happening in
Speaker 8: Hollywood being so slow, the paid the script felt so
Speaker 8: good for people that people wanted to join it.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 8: I think having Keiky's scissor and EASA's attachment up top
Speaker 8: really helped us get everybody else and once they wade
Speaker 8: the script, and you know, I feel like we Taylor
Speaker 8: made these characters for who blazed them. They just they
Speaker 8: locked in and and and fit into our world, and.
Speaker 5: That people want to do it for the family, for
Speaker 5: the community, like let's talk together and make something that
Speaker 5: we can enjoys.
Speaker 1: Life is crazy crazy.
Speaker 4: You know, let's try to joy. Yeah, let's try to
Speaker 4: find some laughs down. I'm we were dying.
Speaker 6: I actually wanted to ask you, since there were so
Speaker 6: many laughs, did you have any fears about a scene
Speaker 6: that wouldn't play like since you've been watching it in
Speaker 6: theaters and getting to see it with people, what scene
Speaker 6: when you hear people dying laughing surprises you?
Speaker 8: To be honest, I know I mentioned to Payday scene,
Speaker 8: but I'm gonna say the pay Day scene because on
Speaker 8: the page on the script it was funny, but it
Speaker 8: wasn't like that much action going on.
Speaker 1: That was my favorite. That was my favorite scene. My
Speaker 1: friends were laughing the hardest just now to that scene.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 8: So it was like it was kind of like, are
Speaker 8: we are people going to read this they sitting down?
Speaker 7: It's not so much. Are we slowing the film down
Speaker 7: with just so many questions?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 7: But I think that's that's probably mine for sure.
Speaker 4: Every time this scene gets to laugh.
Speaker 5: First of all, I think it's really sweet how people
Speaker 5: laugh with her Maniac Yeah, romance. But I think the
Speaker 5: one that it makes me laugh that people laugh at it.
Speaker 7: Is Grand Rising.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Grand Rising, I saw you laughing.
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh. Yes.
Speaker 5: First of all, let me just tell you the world
Speaker 5: is so small. So the guy that plays maniac. His
Speaker 5: name is Patrick. His father come from a small town.
Speaker 5: When I tell you a small time, it's called Robins
Speaker 5: is outside of the city. It's in a little Illinois,
Speaker 5: really really poor child. Make a long story short. Patrick's
Speaker 5: daddy and my mama went to high school together. What's
Speaker 5: so crazy?
Speaker 4: How that happened? And we love interested in this movie? Like,
Speaker 4: I just think that's so crazy. How could that be?
Speaker 1: You gonna end up here?
Speaker 7: Wait?
Speaker 4: Wait, wait, I do want to know that since he.
Speaker 8: Was fed with he didn't know that he was gonna
Speaker 8: say that when she's when she jumps.
Speaker 4: Yes, that was the real thing.
Speaker 5: So at the end he told they had when he
Speaker 5: says to me, like it's crazy and I'm like, what.
Speaker 8: Go ahead, I brought you. I just you dragged you
Speaker 8: out this burning building. And he still he didn't know.
Speaker 8: So her reaction is real that you were.
Speaker 2: Just blushing in real life? Yes, you know, I like
Speaker 2: a short king. See wait was he short with Kiki?
Speaker 2: Did you have any did you have any say in
Speaker 2: the casting of the Eye Candy for this film?
Speaker 5: Yes, but I mean we it was really I would
Speaker 5: say you guys did a great job casting they you know,
Speaker 5: putting everybody together. So, I mean it was kind of
Speaker 5: like I'm a part of the process, but I trusted
Speaker 5: him as a director to did everyone line up in
Speaker 5: gray boys shorts? Or like, Oh my gosh, that is
Speaker 5: too much. I mean, I guess we can't ask about
Speaker 5: it like was all we wanted? Wasn't it like an
Speaker 5: extension that was not that d percent shut? Now that's
Speaker 5: not necessariously straight up, that's one hundred percent rail.
Speaker 4: I swear everything, y'all. I'm not lying. That's one hundred
Speaker 4: percent what you saw My grandfollowers about to show up.
Speaker 4: They said, I got a.
Speaker 1: Home for you.
Speaker 2: I do want to make sure we get to talking
Speaker 2: about the music as well, because anytime watching any production
Speaker 2: with Lisa, she has the soundtracks, and I think we've
Speaker 2: missed out on the era of soundtracks with this and
Speaker 2: this provided a good one.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we were dancing a little too much in this audience.
Speaker 6: I feel like, oh, everybody was turned out. You was bad,
Speaker 6: bitch fucking.
Speaker 4: You had everybody.
Speaker 2: So what was that like? Like after the scenes were shot,
Speaker 2: you picked the.
Speaker 4: To fit it.
Speaker 8: I mean in a way, I mean when I first
Speaker 8: pitched on this project almost four years ago, that was
Speaker 8: part of my presentation of how the music I wanted
Speaker 8: the musical beat. Some of my favorite films touched all genres.
Speaker 8: You got sold, you got funked, you got R and B,
Speaker 8: you got raped. I think that adds an extra layer
Speaker 8: to our film. So at the start of the film,
Speaker 8: we had a very small music budget, so a lot
Speaker 8: of the stuff was indie and then I remember doing
Speaker 8: like early previews and the president of the tri Star
Speaker 8: was just like, what's some big songs in there?
Speaker 7: And we try to figure it out.
Speaker 8: So I'm like, all right, you know, so we ended
Speaker 8: up getting more money and we just try stuff out.
Speaker 8: It's just it's really about just placing it, listening to
Speaker 8: it over and over again. I had made a playlist
Speaker 8: that was I got about three hundred songs on there.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 7: We work with the music subervision team that licens saying hard.
Speaker 7: It's hard.
Speaker 4: But although hopefully since.
Speaker 2: It gave you all the TV discount because don't nobody
Speaker 2: want to get a discounts.
Speaker 8: But but we you know, we got Dochi and we
Speaker 8: got Ravaughn here too, so we did.
Speaker 7: Honestly, they did show us some love for that is amazing.
Speaker 6: Can we get a little inspo? You said four years
Speaker 6: ago shopping it. Have there ever been a point where
Speaker 6: you were like, I'm giving up on this?
Speaker 7: No? Really, yeah, I mean because it's time.
Speaker 8: I mean, Holly, you gotta have persistence, you know, you
Speaker 8: gotta have perseverance, I should say. You know, if you
Speaker 8: give up on it, you've given up, you know what
Speaker 8: I mean. It's some filmmakers. I look at Mars Scorsese
Speaker 8: for example, Color's of the Flower Moon. He was trying
Speaker 8: to make that movie in the seventies and he just
Speaker 8: made it and he did turned eighty years old, you
Speaker 8: know what I mean.
Speaker 2: So, and we know Kiki with ky TV, she she
Speaker 2: making a script every week.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh. But it does take a long time,
Speaker 5: you know, it really really doesn't. That's a big part
Speaker 5: of Key TV. It's like, how can we create an
Speaker 5: inky baby system that helps usher these projects quicker into
Speaker 5: the hands of you know, people like Sony or people
Speaker 5: that going to give the money and be able to
Speaker 5: do them at the scale you want to.
Speaker 4: But it's it's not easy. I love talking about that
Speaker 4: when we talk about this.
Speaker 5: Movie, because I want people to understand that that's the reality.
Speaker 5: If it doesn't happen immediately, don't take that as a
Speaker 5: sign that it's never going to happen. It took a
Speaker 5: keyling to be in the shoot twenty about twenty years
Speaker 5: to get mad exactly.
Speaker 4: So it's like it was like, man, they had to
Speaker 4: wait for me to be born for to get made.
Speaker 2: That was what its ony years.
Speaker 6: So it's really gonna be amying to be and they say, oh,
Speaker 6: look at.
Speaker 4: That Little Black Girls. We gotta do it like it's
Speaker 4: almost making good. It's all funny.
Speaker 7: But Kethy and I, we just believed in the story. Y'ough.
Speaker 8: Literally we just were like, because we gotta tell it,
Speaker 8: it's original. We haven't seen this before. We don't do
Speaker 8: whatever it takes. We're gonna audition out every many people
Speaker 8: were gonna keep fighting.
Speaker 6: And for all the movies that you've done, what about
Speaker 6: this film for you made it feel different? You have
Speaker 6: very serious and then nope, we're like, we got to
Speaker 6: see what was it about this that made you? You're
Speaker 6: just like, damn, I did something different?
Speaker 4: Well you know what I mean.
Speaker 5: I feel like this is first of all, I will
Speaker 5: say again, sissm me and Sissa. Anytime that you're working
Speaker 5: and you're collaborating on a project, the chemistry with you
Speaker 5: and the people that you're working with are always going
Speaker 5: to make the difference. And I feel like there's something
Speaker 5: that's very magical about her, and I think there was
Speaker 5: something very magical about us working together in this time space,
Speaker 5: in this moment in time that I think we captured
Speaker 5: that I feel is it makes it unique. But then
Speaker 5: also I would say, like I'm proud of every movie
Speaker 5: that I've done.
Speaker 4: Obviously that's why I did it.
Speaker 5: I liked it on the page, and I liked it
Speaker 5: when it's finished, but it's not always the movie that
Speaker 5: I'm going to watch every day or watch before I
Speaker 5: go to bed.
Speaker 4: Like when I look at this, it made me think
Speaker 4: about like Brown Sugar.
Speaker 5: It make me think about like all those movies from
Speaker 5: the early two thousands, late nineties black movies that I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 5: put that on because it makes me feel good.
Speaker 4: And so I think that's also the difference.
Speaker 5: Another movie I did that made me feel like that
Speaker 5: in a different way. It's more of a dramas this
Speaker 5: movie I did called Brotherly Love, where it's like it's
Speaker 5: a movie that I would just sit and watch, you know.
Speaker 5: That's how I feel about this, But in a comedy sense.
Speaker 6: I love that when you. When I get my hair done,
Speaker 6: I actually put on comfort movies. You know what I mean, Sorry, Tony.
Speaker 6: When I was looking at the screener, I was like, oh,
Speaker 6: do I do it with my brainer because she don't
Speaker 6: love it? And honestly, it's so funny because when we
Speaker 6: spoke about it later, I said, oh my god, girl,
Speaker 6: I just got to watch the most amazing thing. And
Speaker 6: when I get my hair done next, I can't wait
Speaker 6: for you to watch it too.
Speaker 4: That's what it was for.
Speaker 1: Serious, because you know what we want to cut on.
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, But I also said, I also said watching
Speaker 2: it a second time made it to where you feel like,
Speaker 2: oh no, this is about to be a classic. Because
Speaker 2: I could watch it again and it got better. I
Speaker 2: missed some things. I missed something then watching it again
Speaker 2: and I was like, oh dangn that was funny. The
Speaker 2: tumble Weed, Oh my god.
Speaker 4: Come on tumble weed.
Speaker 6: Is there any little piece before we leave our audience
Speaker 6: tonight of something you want to share about this film
Speaker 6: that they could take home with, or just a piece
Speaker 6: of this movie that or just even talking to each
Speaker 6: other about what this meant?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 8: Man, I mean, I hope people leave this movie and
Speaker 8: have hope at the front of their mind.
Speaker 7: You know, we see our world is so crazy.
Speaker 8: Right now, economies all over the place, and we see
Speaker 8: these characters whose backs are against the wall. It looks
Speaker 8: like it's over with, but it's not real, you know.
Speaker 8: And I think that's like an you know, analogy for life.
Speaker 7: You know. You just we talk about how long is
Speaker 7: it this movie? We have to perseverance.
Speaker 8: So it's as long as you're hopeful and you believe
Speaker 8: in your heart that you know what you want can happen.
Speaker 7: It can happen for you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I piggyback off of that and just
Speaker 5: and just to have joy. I think it's so important
Speaker 5: for us to find joy. It is like life can
Speaker 5: really be crazy, it can be a lot. And I
Speaker 5: think the big thing is community. So whether it's the
Speaker 5: community of seeing Drew and Lissa come together with theirs
Speaker 5: on screen, or the community of all of y'all gathering
Speaker 5: here to watch it. If we could bring each other
Speaker 5: together to laugh and enjoy, to me that I've done
Speaker 5: my job. That's what I like to do as an artist.
Speaker 5: It's to bring people together for something good, for something hopeful,
Speaker 5: for something positive.
Speaker 4: And so that makes me happy looking at all.
Speaker 7: Y'all.
Speaker 5: We was laughing up in here together. You know that's
Speaker 5: that's fun to me. You can watch this and know
Speaker 5: you will make your rent.
Speaker 4: You will make it. I know you need to make it.
Speaker 4: You will be a high.
Speaker 2: You might need to show them toes, but you might
Speaker 2: need to show them Joe, Kiki Lawrence, thank you so
Speaker 2: much for y'all bring us here.
Speaker 4: Y'all, y'all. And Laurence, hey, you guys.
Speaker 5: Make sure you were seventeen seventeen, yeah, septeenth, y'all.
Speaker 1: All right, we're out of the theater, y'all.
Speaker 6: We just left Kiki, yes, miss big Boss Palmer, we
Speaker 6: just left Laurence Lawant.
Speaker 1: That shit was fun as hell. It was so much fun.
Speaker 2: It's so crazy because I mean, I know, you guys
Speaker 2: have never really heard us do an episode like that.
Speaker 2: I don't think we ever have done an episode like that.
Speaker 8: Not me.
Speaker 1: No, it was a good time.
Speaker 2: Now. It's crazy because horrible decisions was in my mind.
Speaker 2: I was up there, so I was like, oh, caught
Speaker 2: that caught that.
Speaker 1: Y'all want a little background team.
Speaker 6: So this part of the episode is just Mandy and I,
Speaker 6: you know, reflecting on a movie. Reflecting on our experience
Speaker 6: with this for our listeners, first thoughts I had that
Speaker 6: I thought were funny. Out of the red carpets we've
Speaker 6: done together, I have felt so fucking rushed out And
Speaker 6: it was so beautiful to be in Atlanta where everybody
Speaker 6: knows us.
Speaker 2: Yes, because I actually got everybody. So I do want
Speaker 2: to shout out excell Nicole, Radio One, Revolt, dish Nation
Speaker 2: rolling out. Uh did you say that bossip?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Like it was dope. Like we immediately went to the
Speaker 2: red carpet and it was like we here with decisions, decisions,
Speaker 2: formally horrible decision To be fair.
Speaker 6: Can I just say I'm not saying no one didn't
Speaker 6: know us, but that is how they're supposed to be prepared.
Speaker 6: When you're red carpet, you're even if you don't know someone,
Speaker 6: You're holding a piece of paper.
Speaker 1: You're scene is coming out. But also we was the house.
Speaker 1: That's true Bett what to me?
Speaker 5: You know what?
Speaker 6: I was literally thinking to myself when we were leaving,
Speaker 6: can he look bomb?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 6: But I was like, damn bro like flying from New
Speaker 6: York last night, like she does so much that it
Speaker 6: really made me think to myself, do I do enough.
Speaker 2: Oh, I think that every time I speak to Angela
Speaker 2: Yee or even Charlemagne and I'm like, oh, if we
Speaker 2: got the same twenty four hours, maybe I'm not doing
Speaker 2: enough because they juggle a lot of things, which is why.
Speaker 4: Like I know, like when I told y'all.
Speaker 2: Was doing radio down here, you was like, well, we
Speaker 2: have a tour, are you gonna have enough time?
Speaker 1: I say, bitch, I want to make it happen. I
Speaker 1: see Angela, make it happen.
Speaker 7: I see Charla.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know none of that yet. Air check is
Speaker 2: being sent out. I'm talking to a lot of people,
Speaker 2: and not that I'm using like a manifest word here,
Speaker 2: but I'm literally just saying it because it's gonna happen.
Speaker 2: That's it. It's not like locked in officially. But when
Speaker 2: I make the announcements to y'll, y'all could come right
Speaker 2: back to this time stamp and see what a manifestation
Speaker 2: looks like.
Speaker 1: Let me let me, let me do for radio.
Speaker 4: So there you go. In another I like that.
Speaker 6: I like when people say, you know, I moved to
Speaker 6: a city for love and then they get married. I
Speaker 6: moved to a city for job and have it I
Speaker 6: think it's beautiful. You know, someone told me on Horrible
Speaker 6: Decisions that I said I wanted to do trap pilates
Speaker 6: last year.
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't remember that. That's crazy. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I guess I talked about plates and to do.
Speaker 2: You have been working I mean talking about just working
Speaker 2: out period since we started the pod. I think before
Speaker 2: we started the pod, you had me going to spin
Speaker 2: classes with your ass.
Speaker 6: Going to Switch Playground where my fitness dress. No, no,
Speaker 6: you don't, Rember, we went together.
Speaker 2: That was one time, just to film behind. I never
Speaker 2: wanted to do Switch Playground. That was not my type
Speaker 2: A crazy word ground. I like bar pilates, a yoga,
Speaker 2: hot yoga specifically.
Speaker 6: I've actually been thinking about adding a bar for trap
Speaker 6: bar classes. But okay, back into it, so manifesting. Okay,
Speaker 6: see that was being Scissor right now.
Speaker 4: No, no, no, I'm not gonna lie. Y'all heard me
Speaker 4: say it.
Speaker 2: Scissor's character, Alyssa is a fucking terrorist like I watched
Speaker 2: it and every scene with her made me more and
Speaker 2: more mad. I said I could never have a friend.
Speaker 2: It was not only the delulu of it. Yes, moving
Speaker 2: in the broke nigga with the big dick. Okay, sure,
Speaker 2: but it was just like even I think when when
Speaker 2: Kiki couldn't believe she posted I don't want to give
Speaker 2: the movie but and I'm not gonna give the movie,
Speaker 2: but there were moments in there where Alisa just did
Speaker 2: things where it's just like, oh, bit, you just dumb,
Speaker 2: you just dumb.
Speaker 4: You don't care.
Speaker 2: About she just second and then and then's me when
Speaker 2: a friend try to tell you, like, bitch, you stay
Speaker 2: fucking up for her in that moment to be like.
Speaker 4: Well, bitch, you ain't shit either.
Speaker 2: And I was just like me and my friends never
Speaker 2: have these exchanges, and I was just like, this be
Speaker 2: what friendships look.
Speaker 1: I actually got a little.
Speaker 6: Anxiety and their argument in the movie because I haven't
Speaker 6: had a like scream out match with a fan in
Speaker 6: a long time now.
Speaker 1: Actually I don't know the last time that happened.
Speaker 6: But it made me think to myself, a lot of
Speaker 6: my friends are opposite as me. I have some type
Speaker 6: A and me and I have someone listen in me.
Speaker 6: That's why why I'm able to do what I do
Speaker 6: or you know, even be an entrepreneur. I think you
Speaker 6: got to have a little type A. Yeah, now, you
Speaker 6: have to have. I think more Type A than Alissa. Yeah,
Speaker 6: I mean no, I am yeah, but it made me
Speaker 6: think to myself, is there a balance in friendships where
Speaker 6: two Type a's can two Kiki aka Drew in the movies?
Speaker 1: Can two kikiS get on? Well?
Speaker 6: Is it nice to have that oppositeness? Much like in dating,
Speaker 6: it's really nice to date someone with the opposite personality
Speaker 6: A bit.
Speaker 2: I have a lot of Type A friends, but I
Speaker 2: don't think I would move into doing business with any
Speaker 2: of my friends at this point, just because I value
Speaker 2: my friendships too much. But I like I like Type
Speaker 2: A people. I like people that are like organized and
Speaker 2: not so aloof. I do have some aloof ass friends,
Speaker 2: though I do have some delusional ass friends, and I
Speaker 2: do have not call him out girl, and I do
Speaker 2: have friends that create their own realities.
Speaker 4: Like they'll be telling me about something and I'm like.
Speaker 1: Hold on, is it cause of Dick?
Speaker 2: Though, oh, it's about Dickolae. I ain't even gonna hold you.
Speaker 2: My one friend and she don't listen to the Bob,
Speaker 2: So I'm about to talk about her because I called
Speaker 2: her out in person. So we talking and she's telling
Speaker 2: me about this twenty four year old, but she's speaking
Speaker 2: about him like he's new. So all these things are new.
Speaker 2: And I said, bitch, the car dealership nigga, oh my god,
Speaker 2: two years ago, Oh you do.
Speaker 4: Know about it? Yeah, you fucked his coworker. So I'm like,
Speaker 4: the way she bitch get on the bod, it was
Speaker 4: a lot.
Speaker 2: So I'm like, well, she's like, well he doesn't work
Speaker 2: there anymore. And I was like, bitch, you still fucking
Speaker 2: this merry coworker. It was tea So I was like, bro,
Speaker 2: you're really sitting here trying to talk about this nigga
Speaker 2: like he had new nigga. I was so confused. I
Speaker 2: do want to do like I.
Speaker 6: Feel like I've done that on Horrible Actually there's been
Speaker 6: maybe in the last I don't know how many years,
Speaker 6: but there's been a nigga I've had sex with that.
Speaker 6: I was just no, I don't act like he's a
Speaker 6: new nigga. I just don't intro who he is. How
Speaker 6: I said, I'll just talk about the dick and I'll
Speaker 6: be like, I don't even feel like like I think
Speaker 6: there's a time I fucked Lambau And I was like,
Speaker 6: I just can't believe I fucked this nigga again, Like.
Speaker 1: Let me just that's crazy, but it's to me.
Speaker 6: Sometimes you want to share your excitement for the dick
Speaker 6: you just had, but the way that a friend will
Speaker 6: hold you accountable is like, I don't want.
Speaker 1: To hear that I needed to get fucked. Okay, let's
Speaker 1: just say you fuck twenty four to seven again. Let's
Speaker 1: just say it happened. Although we can kind of be
Speaker 1: looking at him sometimes because we didn't have been in
Speaker 1: the same but just seeing him in that one nigga together.
Speaker 4: And I said, we're not gonna do that.
Speaker 2: I said, oh my god, he be outside with all
Speaker 2: the niggas ah. But I would never give him plasy again,
Speaker 2: even though he find I think. I know the last
Speaker 2: argument was but the last argument was bad. But also
Speaker 2: I've been told of too many other bitches he pucks,
Speaker 2: and it's just like ew, like, you just give that
Speaker 2: good dick to everybody.
Speaker 1: What is your problem?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: I could show you a bit She pucked so ugly,
Speaker 1: and I was just like.
Speaker 2: Oh, I like, what's good dick to be elusive?
Speaker 1: I'll show you her. She's awful? What is it about?
Speaker 2: So she probably like she's trash what's wrong with her
Speaker 2: besides the face and the body body face trash.
Speaker 1: Maybe she's funny. No, I've been around her. She's not
Speaker 1: that funny. Well, and her lips are like maybe she
Speaker 1: a freak. Let me see.
Speaker 2: No, you ain't given too much details on me on
Speaker 2: the podcast. I do want to talk about one of
Speaker 2: them days, just just to wrap this episode up, though
Speaker 2: only because I'm I will say hearing them say that
Speaker 2: we were this close, and when I say this close,
Speaker 2: it's really small to getting a sex worker scene. I
Speaker 2: really wish we did the I really wish they did
Speaker 2: the footshit. Oh my god, I really wish they did,
Speaker 2: you know what them.
Speaker 6: I'm kind of glad they didn't because I wonder if
Speaker 6: somebody would have just found a way to pick it apart.
Speaker 1: Like a lot of the girls would be like, oh
Speaker 1: do you got to say?
Speaker 7: I don't know.
Speaker 6: It was very fun, It was very silly, and I
Speaker 6: wonder if it was a choice to take it out.
Speaker 1: You got to think everything is a choice, right.
Speaker 6: A lot of the sex workers shit people act funny about.
Speaker 4: Bro feet though like that I don't.
Speaker 1: Think is a big deal the thing.
Speaker 4: So it's crazy.
Speaker 2: So watching this movie and it was a question I
Speaker 2: wanted the audience to sit with fifteen hundred dollars in
Speaker 2: a day. It's so crazy because, uh, I know, we
Speaker 2: got asked that question on the red carpet, and immediately
Speaker 2: I said, I would hit up all my niggas.
Speaker 1: I would have sex.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie. I have so many niggas even
Speaker 2: from the past, and friends that are millionaires, and I
Speaker 2: could just ask for money. But then I also thought, bitch,
Speaker 2: the first thing I did when we started really making money,
Speaker 2: I think maybe our first like live show, I bought
Speaker 2: this watch, and it's only because everyone told me, bitch,
Speaker 2: a Rolex doesn't really lose value.
Speaker 7: Da da da.
Speaker 2: I could go turn this sitting and get eight grand tomorrow,
Speaker 2: get eight grand today if I went and wanted to
Speaker 2: turn it back in.
Speaker 4: So I was like, oh, I'll get my watch up.
Speaker 1: And that's what else I thought.
Speaker 2: I said, Damn, they didn't even have a scene like
Speaker 2: with a pawn shop. I'm thinking of realistically, like growing up,
Speaker 2: the cash advance, that's what my mom used to do,
Speaker 2: That's what I used to do. It was actually my
Speaker 2: first thing, cash advance. Then a pawn shop actually would
Speaker 2: have been my second thought in which jewelry gold, gold
Speaker 2: keeps value, which is why when I was just in
Speaker 2: sane CROI, I was like, bitch, we got to get
Speaker 2: the gold because gold is more affordable there.
Speaker 1: It's like thirty percent off. So I'm gonna be real.
Speaker 4: You always take a pawn shop.
Speaker 1: Here's why.
Speaker 6: The most valuable, like, the most valuable thing is my
Speaker 6: Rolex two. However, I've seen rolexes on the real real
Speaker 6: for twenty one hundred and I really believe, but you.
Speaker 4: Only need fifteen.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about if you need the fifteen, just get
Speaker 2: the give kid the goddamn watch up to me.
Speaker 6: That don't hold no value should be going down, bitch.
Speaker 6: The pawn shops can look you in the I and
Speaker 6: see desperation, bitch.
Speaker 2: And then they gonna be like, you know, well I
Speaker 2: could take this to Boucher turnover, bitch, like can we
Speaker 2: tell where I got it from? Andandy trying to speak
Speaker 2: French and she knows that's my town. That is not friends.
Speaker 2: Well now, yeah, I was thinking.
Speaker 6: I was thinking, Now, if someone doesn't have something that
Speaker 6: is of that much value, where do you do? What
Speaker 6: are you selling your home? The other things that you
Speaker 6: own are laptop yes, car, you can do your car. Okay,
Speaker 6: that's that's extreme.
Speaker 7: Bro.
Speaker 2: What and you can't really turn in a car. A
Speaker 2: lot of people are on a car with the least
Speaker 2: That's why you got to turn over that pussy. That's
Speaker 2: what I would have done. You know what's crazy? That's
Speaker 2: that was my overall take from this movie. And no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: is that they have poor pussy management. How the fuck
Speaker 2: can you not call any nigga you ever fucked and
Speaker 2: asked for some break.
Speaker 1: Because they was living in the jungles man?
Speaker 7: What the fuck?
Speaker 2: Regardless poor pussy management, there's bitches that live in the
Speaker 2: project that can still call.
Speaker 7: Well.

Speaker 6: the girl dates. I actually just did that with my
Speaker 6: best friend. We went and saw.
Speaker 2: A Wicked and then I took my mom and my
Speaker 2: sister to go see Moufassa. But we went to one
Speaker 2: of those movies where we was eating fucking We had
Speaker 2: a Charcucci board, we had an espresso martini. So if
Speaker 2: you guys have an ipic theater anywhere, I really love
Speaker 2: going to watch movies like that because it's like a
Speaker 2: dinner in a movie.
Speaker 1: Are you knocking out two and one? Bitch them tickets?
Speaker 2: We thirty, all, No, they're only twenty here, But then
Speaker 2: you're ordering food and drinks, so it does get a
Speaker 2: little expensive.
Speaker 1: You know, go on with your price. And did tell
Speaker 1: them you want to go see.
Speaker 2: One of them bads, and then well they be wanting
Speaker 2: to talk on them days. It's okay, that's the perfect day.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 2: It's definitely a girl's out movie. I do think it's
Speaker 2: a really cute date night t I and Tiny actually
Speaker 2: came and watched at the screening. I saw quite a
Speaker 2: few couples actually in there, unless they were just there
Speaker 2: with it, But I saw a lot of guys and
Speaker 2: girls at the screening.
Speaker 6: Sizza was something to see Kiki little body in that
Speaker 6: little Neon list. It was really really fun to see
Speaker 6: them on the screen. And I got to see Sizzle
Speaker 6: on tour last year for so os so much.
Speaker 1: I loved her.
Speaker 2: She she is kind of really an artist because like
Speaker 2: to see her act in this like she was a
Speaker 2: great actor. Actually to see her maybe she was also
Speaker 2: just acting like herself, which is the type of role
Speaker 2: I think I would deal with.
Speaker 1: That's what they say that non actors should do. But
Speaker 1: after this movie, y'all.
Speaker 6: And I'm not just saying it because Sony brought us out,
Speaker 6: but I swear to you at the end of the movie,
Speaker 6: you know, high expectations always for Kiki.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, damn, Siss really good.
Speaker 4: So that did that? Actually, I think.
Speaker 6: Alex was texting me in the movie and like, this
Speaker 6: is kind of surprising me. Yeah, And I think you know,
Speaker 6: when you see an actor for the first time or
Speaker 6: someone you know that becomes an actor. That's how we
Speaker 6: know Sissa right from her music. You're kind of like, oh, okay,
Speaker 6: well maybe she'll be Navid.
Speaker 1: She killed that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, she killed it and then also it was
Speaker 2: just amazing to see Janelle James in the film.
Speaker 4: Kat Williams.
Speaker 2: The Woman from Curb, which was my favorite scene of
Speaker 2: the movie, which is crazy, the conversation we had with
Speaker 2: the director, the scene where we said they said they
Speaker 2: didn't know if it would get that many last the
Speaker 2: cash Advanced Place was my favorite scene.
Speaker 1: Oh do you want to give any little tea from
Speaker 1: last night?
Speaker 6: Like bts that because I thought the coolest thing was
Speaker 6: watching Kiki and Lawrence just react to stuff. I kind
Speaker 6: of almost watched the movie and stared at them.
Speaker 1: Oh you know, KICKI was sitting Kicky and her mama
Speaker 1: was sitting right in front of I love watching people
Speaker 1: watch them.
Speaker 2: So I love that she was watching her own film back.
Speaker 2: And I think that that lets you know how much
Speaker 2: they really both take it serious. The and the director
Speaker 2: like enjoy the film.
Speaker 6: And I also want to let y'all know, you know,
Speaker 6: just being Bicoastal, I've been going to a lot of
Speaker 6: screenings and the actors come in for the panel and
Speaker 6: this movie and Bad Boys, Bad Boys because.
Speaker 1: Well, Marvin and Anna wanted it.
Speaker 6: And that was a very small theater of like maybe
Speaker 6: less than one hundred and seventy five, a big theater,
Speaker 6: and so just to see the actor be engulfed in
Speaker 6: their own work and paying attention to their craft, Like
Speaker 6: that's when you get the people that are this big.
Speaker 6: But I've definitely been some screenings where they just pop
Speaker 6: right in and by the way, yeah, I'm amazing. I
Speaker 6: might need a hologram because I kind of want to
Speaker 6: sit in a Horrible Decisions live show.
Speaker 2: Like I know we're going on tour again, but I
Speaker 2: kind of like want to be able to see what
Speaker 2: it looks like.
Speaker 6: Well, if you could see Mandy and I backstage whenever
Speaker 6: there's like a video of us playing or something, We're
Speaker 6: always looking like how are people reacting.
Speaker 1: We'd be trying to sneak it, be like are they laughing?
Speaker 1: Did they laugh every time Vinnie goes back? Are they laughing?
Speaker 4: What type of crowd is it? Like, I know, we
Speaker 4: really want to know because we like to be engulfed
Speaker 4: with the crowd.
Speaker 6: So when we you know, when we're traveling and we
Speaker 6: have to book like an opener that we don't know
Speaker 6: manning down here alive, we'd be.
Speaker 2: Like, like, you need to know. I think we did
Speaker 2: really good with our last tour with our performers, openers
Speaker 2: or Kinksters.
