Like I remember, I 44 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 3: would go to my grandmother's house and she made me 45 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 3: like this Peter Pan hat, and I would jump across 46 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 3: the furniture and pretend to be Peter Pan. And then 47 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 3: I would gather the neighborhood kids around when I was 48 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,839 Speaker 3: at my house and we would act out, like we'd 49 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 3: grab a carpet and go on like a magic carpet 50 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 3: ride and act out of Latin act out. My best 51 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 3: friend at the time, Kaylee, Mills. She would like we 52 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 3: would act out beautying the Beast, that you would grab 53 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 3: a mirror, and we were so into it and it 54 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 3: was probably so cringe, but I truly did grow up 55 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 3: watching Disney, and there was just something about the magic 56 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 3: of movies, like I just love movies. I love that 57 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: there is a hero, there's a villain, there's a happy ending, 58 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 3: you can kind of just choose your own reality. And 59 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: so I just fell in love with movies and performing. 60 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 3: I did high school theater, but there was in Colorado, 61 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 3: and there was no real actor in my life. There 62 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 3: was nobody that I could look up to and be like, oh, 63 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 3: I want to do that. So for me, it was 64 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 3: always just a hobby. My dad was a musician, so 65 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: I kind of got the like artistic itch a little bit. 66 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 3: And then and then I went to college and started 67 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,679 Speaker 3: going to college for business, realized that I didn't like it, 68 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 3: and then I escaped yet again to Disney. I did 69 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 3: the Disney College program in Orlando, Florida, was hired to 70 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 3: be a power ranger. 71 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 5: Wait, what's the Disney College program? What does that mean? 72 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: Feels like she's already missed out. She's like, what did 73 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: I wait A minute is. 74 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 3: Basically for kids in Colorado and other places that want 75 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 3: to escape college, and you basically take a semester off, 76 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 3: you go to Disney World in Florida. You work there 77 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 3: for a semester, and then you take classes because because 78 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 3: Disney has a university there, because why not, and you 79 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 3: take college courses and you get college credit, and then 80 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 3: you work as a Disney character. 81 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 2: Still around do we do. 82 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 3: That right now? 83 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 5: Holy cow, that is so cool. I've never and I 84 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 5: have tons of friends that have worked for Walt Disney World, 85 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 5: I have never heard of that. That is so cool. 86 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 3: A lot of it is not. I was one of 87 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 3: the rare exceptions for entertainment. So most entertainment employees are 88 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 3: hired outside of the program. So the program, you basically 89 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 3: might go there and be a janitor or a photographer 90 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 3: or like my roommate at in Florida was a lifeguard 91 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 3: at one of the theme parks, and so it's it's 92 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: not really entertainment focused. But I just got lucky. I 93 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 3: auditioned and I got to be a character. 94 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: So wait, so they brought you there, but you became 95 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: a power ranger at Disney. 96 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: No, they and switched me. So I was hired as 97 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 3: a Power Ranger. I had my audition at my school. 98 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 3: It was like this open casting call in Colorado. I 99 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 3: was hired to be the Red Ranger. I get there 100 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 3: and then as soon as I get there, they change 101 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 3: the height requirement and they're like, oh, sorry, bro, you're 102 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 3: too short. So then I was like, well what do 103 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 3: I do? And so I was buzz light Year. But 104 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 3: that's way better, kind of amazing. 105 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 5: Because that is an upgrade. 106 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 3: That is an upgrade exactly. I was like a Space Ranger. 107 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 3: So I was buzz Lightyear. And then I got to 108 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 3: also do Ere and Pluto and Raffiki. 109 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: And oh, come on, those are way better.

Yeah, I would love to. I So right when 181 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 3: I moved to LA I started auditioning. I was, you know, 182 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 3: taking acting classes. I felt I kind of had imposter 183 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 3: syndrome because I was auditioning against people had gone to 184 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 3: Juilliard and I hear I have like high school theater credits. 185 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 3: So at one point I was taking like in private 186 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 3: groundlings and I was taking scene study on Wilcox Avenue 187 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 3: on like a small theater, and then I was doing 188 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 3: Meisner somewhere else. I was taking three acting classes, and 189 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 3: I was like, I'm going to be a Thestian. So 190 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 3: my mindset was very like purest you know, I'm going 191 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 3: to be an actor. Well, MTV reaches out to me 192 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 3: and they say, do you want to do a challenge, 193 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 3: So that purest mindset went out the window, and I 194 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 3: was like, yes, I would love to. 195 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,599 Speaker 6: I want to be competitive, I want to win the 196 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 6: challenge I want and also I thought it'd be a 197 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 6: good exposure to your agent at the time said Mike, 198 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 6: if you do one reality show, you can sort of 199 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 6: escape that world and be an actor. 200 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 3: If you do two reality shows, you're forever going to 201 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 3: be a reality TV person. Interesting, you can't, you don't 202 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 3: do it. So because back then there's more of a 203 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: stigma I think, or nowadays, like if they called me 204 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 3: and asked me to do it, yep, sure right. You 205 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 3: have Chris Hemsworth with his travel show. You have Zach 206 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 3: Effron with his travel show. 207 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 208 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 5: Well not only that. Back in the day with the Challenge, 209 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 5: one of the biggest things that they were doing was 210 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 5: feeding them with alcohol and watching them explode. They don't 211 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 5: do that anymore. They keep it really like it's a 212 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 5: lot more like Challenge Athletic Focus. But back then it 213 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 5: was like a party and they had people filming it, 214 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 5: so that was probably a big part of what would 215 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 5: you know, could possibly like stick with you, you know 216 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 5: what I mean, it's scenes from things like that, So 217 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 5: it's different. 218 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 3: Back then, I had I had barely escaped real world 219 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 3: and still had an okay reputation because I was the 220 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 3: good kid on the show. It was. This was in Washington, 221 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 3: d C. It was right on the heels of Obama 222 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 3: being elected. Nobody else in the house was really interested 223 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 3: in politics, and so I happened to get a job 224 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 3: with the Human Rights Campaign and I was like, there 225 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 3: was one other person in the house that she was volunteering, 226 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 3: but I was really the only one taking my job seriously, 227 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 3: So like, we need somebody doing something in politics. 228 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. 229 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 3: So all of the like I think I hooked up 230 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: with somebody on a pool table, and you know, I did, like, oh, 231 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 3: who hasn't other things that they didn't really focus on 232 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 3: in the show because I was the good kid. 233 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: Well, now I'm curious because I think so many people 234 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: would be interested in this, And again, I think what 235 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: you said is exactly right. 236 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 2: Reality TV is now just TV. 237 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: So back in the day, though you were you seem 238 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: kind of in the middle of what it was turning 239 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: into now and what it used to be. 240 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 2: You were kind of probably in the middle cruck section there. 241 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: But I think most people want to know on a 242 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: show like the Real World, how real is it are they? 243 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 1: Are they setting up situations for you? Are they, hey, 244 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: we have to shoot this again. Are they really just 245 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: putting the cameras on you and letting them roll. 246 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, So for Real World, I would say it is real. 247 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 3: It is the I mean because the first the show 248 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 3: was the first real reality show. It was social experiment, 249 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 3: and it was very important for the producers to to 250 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 3: make it real and make it a social experiment. And 251 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 3: their genius comes in casting, so they knew exactly what 252 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 3: they were doing. When they pick, you know, seven or 253 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 3: eight strangers to live in a house and have their 254 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 3: lives taped, they knew exactly what they're doing. So they 255 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: cast people that have conflicting points of viewing the world, 256 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 3: experience everything else, and then they film it all and 257 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 3: they take everything away from you. So we had no phones, 258 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 3: no TV, no radio, nothing else in the house except 259 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 3: for each other. And we did have alcohol, and so 260 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 3: you basically it's a what is it a powder keg 261 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 3: for trauma. But the one thing I will say is 262 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 3: that they never had us. They would never step in 263 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 3: and be like, hold on time, I'll redo this or 264 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 3: restart it. We basically gave them plenty of material to 265 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: work with, and then once a week we would go 266 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 3: into this room with producers and they would basically ask 267 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 3: us questions on camera about the previous week. And I 268 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 3: didn't know it at the time, but now sort of 269 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 3: like doing my producer, you know, putting my producer like, 270 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 3: That's exactly how they got the sound bites. They would 271 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 3: they wouldn't tell you what to say, but they would 272 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 3: guide the conversation in a way that if they knew 273 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 3: that they wanted to cover this fight, they would be like, well, 274 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: how did you feel when she said this fight? And 275 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 3: that's how they would gather the sound bites, and then 276 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 3: they would sort of edit the episodes as they went 277 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 3: with the whatever drama happened that week. 278 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: Now did they ever I was I'm always curious about this. 279 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: Did they ever tell you things that you were not 280 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: there for? So would they say, like, you know, you know, 281 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: Beth said this. 282 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 2: About you when you were there? I mean, would it 283 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: would be stuff like that? 284 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 3: Yes, sometimes sometimes they would. And then you would and 285 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 3: then they would have you on camera being like, I 286 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 3: can't believe she said that, right. 287 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 5: And then get a response yeah. 288 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. And there were a couple of times I will 289 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 3: say that there would be a fight and you would 290 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 3: never notice unless you were there, but I would be 291 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 3: wearing something completely different and there would be like a fight, 292 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 3: and then they would take me saying I can't believe 293 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 3: she said that from like a different interview, and then 294 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 3: they would put it at that, right, okay, somebody would 295 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 3: be like, you know, like I I hate you so much, Bubba, 296 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 3: and then and then they would cut to me in 297 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 3: the confessional room being like, I can't believe she said that, 298 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 3: And that was something from a month. 299 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 2: Completely different thing. Wow, creative editing that. 300 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 3: I would never do it again. 301 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: I would know how Oh god, I couldn't imagine at 302 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: my age two. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 303 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: So you finished the Real World and you moved to 304 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: La mm hm. And so now did you have any 305 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: trouble with that you talk about the possible stigma, did 306 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: you have any trouble with anybody's like, no, he's a 307 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: he's on the reality show. I'm not gonna wrap him, 308 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: or you're not gonna get auditions that kind of thing. 309 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I I kind of, Uh, I kind of hid 310 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 3: myself for a while. I didn't have real world on 311 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 3: my resume. I didn't really have enough on IMDb for 312 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 3: people to try to cross friends of my experiences. So 313 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 3: I really I made it so that people thought of 314 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 3: me as an actor and I didn't talk about real 315 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 3: world at all. And this was also right before Facebook 316 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 3: was a thing, but Instagram was not yet a thing. 317 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 3: Twitter was basically just like people would post comments once 318 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 3: in a while, So it was the very beginning of 319 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: social media. And so I think I barely escaped what 320 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 3: you're talking about. I barely escaped being labeled a reality person. 321 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 5: Nice. 322 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 3: And then I started just auditioning, and you know, kind 323 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 3: of kept my nose to the ground. I kept my 324 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 3: acting classes, kept auditioning. And then the audition that I 325 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 3: think started my Disney journey but also being taken seriously 326 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 3: as an actor. It was an audition for a Disney 327 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 3: XD show called Crash and Bernstein, and I don't know 328 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 3: if you remember. It ran for two seasons. It was 329 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 3: on Disney XD. It was basically two friends, two best friends, 330 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 3: befriend a purple puppet and they that's the thing. And 331 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 3: they get into a bunch of mischief and it was 332 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 3: geared towards like young male Disney viewers. And so I 333 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 3: come in as I got an audition, and at that 334 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 3: point in my life I was taking every single audition. 335 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 3: I was like, every room is an opportunity to meet 336 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 3: a casting director, to make a fan to you know, 337 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 3: do it everything that you're supposed to do. I got lucky. 338 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 3: I found an agent and a manager. Oh forgot this part. 339 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 3: A manager had reached out to me when the Real 340 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 3: World was airing and he found me on Facebook. Because 341 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 3: it was before I thought to make everything private. He 342 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 3: found me on Facebook. He said, I found I saw 343 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 3: you in Real World. Do you have acting experience?

They always made the 461 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: room like as as least threatening as you could possibly 462 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: have with casting directors, so sweet, they're great. What had 463 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 1: you heard of Dove Cameron? Did you know Dove's work 464 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: before you went in? 465 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:55,719 Speaker 2: Or so? Well? 466 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 3: And I do have to plug Susanne Goddard Smythe was 467 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 3: the casting director of Crash and Bursting and she's another 468 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 3: one that liked walk in the room and she hugs you. 469 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 3: My friend Steven Taler O'Connor, who I just hired to 470 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 3: cast another film that I'm producing. He was wonderful. So anyway, 471 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 3: I think casting directors don't get as much praise as they. 472 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 4: For So Dove. 473 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 3: I had never met Dove. It was before she had 474 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 3: done Living Maddie, So I think Disney had already decided 475 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 3: that she was going to do Live in Maddie, but 476 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 3: they wanted her to do something before. So they decided 477 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 3: on and this was before Descendants, before everything else, and 478 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 3: so they decided on Cloud Nine. And originally Cloud Nine 479 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 3: was supposed to be a three picture deal. So when 480 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 3: I signed my contract. It was supposed to be. It 481 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 3: was going to be teen Beach Movie was their summer movie. 482 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 3: Cloud Nine was their winter movie, and they were going 483 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 3: to do three of each. So they did two Team 484 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 3: Beach movies and they only did one Cloud Nine because apparently, 485 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 3: when you get a bunch of la actors and producers 486 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 3: and you stick them in Utah in the middle of 487 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 3: a blizzard, things go awry. 488 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: And I will also guarantee you on some level somewhere 489 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: there was a conversation about making Cloud Nine a musical. 490 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 1: I will guarantee you, oh for sure, probably, and I 491 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: for when I am so glad. 492 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 2: That it did not. 493 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 4: Okay, so you get the role. 494 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 1: You are now into one of the things we're in 495 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 1: our research that we're doing.

I think Luke had 527 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 3: was also a pretty good snowboarder, so he and I 528 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 3: would actually go on our off days, which we weren't 529 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 3: supposed to do. 530 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 5: This would have been a dream d com for me 531 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 5: because I love snowboarding. So but I was like, but 532 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 5: they probably wouldn't even let you. And you're in like 533 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 5: Park City. I mean, you're in like all these crazy places. 534 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 5: How could you not snowboard if you if you actually 535 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 5: like snowboarding? 536 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we we weren't supposed to be anyway, but 537 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 3: and it didn't make Andrew Caldwell, who played one of 538 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 3: he was one of the other actors on Like the 539 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 3: hot Dogs, Like the Good Team, he actually fell and 540 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 3: dissocated his shoulder the first or second week, so he 541 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 3: was put in a he would be wearing a brace 542 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 3: and then they would take the brace off, he would 543 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 3: let his arm hang, they would shoot the scene, and 544 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 3: then they would yell cut and he would put the 545 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 3: brace back on. So he filmed that entire movie with 546 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 3: a dislocated shoulder. 547 00:26:58,359 --> 00:26:58,719 Speaker 2: Geez. 548 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, so so so even more so, they were like, 549 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 3: you guys are not getting on these boards. But but 550 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 3: I don't think Dove and kirc I don't think that 551 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 3: they had as much experience. So which was also really 552 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: nice because we basically got a couple of weeks to 553 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 3: become friends and bond and have fun together before we 554 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 3: actually had to shoot, which you know rarely ever happens, 555 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 3: especially you know with Disney, like a TV movie, they're 556 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 3: just doing it so quick. But we had two weeks 557 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 3: on location in Utah just to become friends. 558 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 2: That's really cool. Well, how how was the shoot? Was it? 559 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 2: Was it a grueling shoe? Was it a fun shoot? 560 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 3: It was? For me it was a dream because I 561 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 3: was I'm like a Colorado boy and I with snowboard 562 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 3: and I loved the snow and the cold and everything else, 563 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 3: and so for me it was a dream. There were there, 564 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 3: I will say there was a an added layer of 565 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 3: pressure to what you may have on other d cooms 566 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 3: because of the element. So there's one scene, for instance, 567 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 3: where where Dove playing Kayla, she has to get drenched 568 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 3: and and so she's she's drenched and she she's like 569 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,199 Speaker 3: cold and she's dripping and she's freezing, and then a 570 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 3: bunch of dogs have to run by, and it's a 571 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 3: scene where I'm basically I have like this monologue, so 572 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 3: I'm talking to her as she's freezing as this, all 573 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 3: these dogs get out and they run by and and 574 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 3: and it was like my first or second day, and 575 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 3: so naturally that I see all the dogs and I'm like, 576 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 3: I get distracted and I mess up, and Paul comes 577 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 3: over to me. He goes, Mike, Dove is freezing, like 578 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 3: you need to get this, and it's like like first 579 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 3: or second day, Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, And I 580 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 3: look at Dove and she's she's so sweet. She's like, 581 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 3: it's okay, take your time, it's fine, and and so 582 00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 3: it was. It was just that I think that the 583 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 3: elements added pressure for everybody. You know, the producer is 584 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 3: the cameraman, everybody's holding you know, you're sliding down ice 585 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 3: and it's just another memory that I just thought of 586 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 3: that I that I had probably blocked out because of PTSD. 587 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 3: But it's the actual first scene that I shot of 588 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 3: the movie is the scene where we're sitting at a 589 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 3: cafe and they didn't have a cafe, so they made one. 590 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 3: So it's like basically pieces of wood with like tables, 591 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 3: and there's a breeze. It's in the middle of a 592 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 3: blizzard of freezing and they give me chapstick and in 593 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 3: the middle of the take my lip, my chapstick freezes 594 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 3: because it was so cold. So I like lick my 595 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 3: lips and it freezes and I we're in the scene 596 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 3: and I smile, and I feel like I start tasting 597 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 3: blood and so and I'm and and Dove's looking at 598 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 3: me and she's like looking at my lip, and I 599 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 3: gotta keep going. I gotta keep going. I'm not messing 600 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 3: up again. So so I'm talking and I taste blood, 601 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 3: but I'm talking. And as soon as the yell cut 602 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 3: the the makeup guy can get and he puts, you know, 603 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 3: chapstick on me and he has He's a giant of 604 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 3: a man. So he takes this giant, bare claw of 605 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 3: a hand and puts it over my whole face. And 606 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 3: that's how he thawed my lip.
