66
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: gonna open up and then what you're gonna looking crazy.

67
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: I gained weight too, I really did gain weight. I

68
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: was like my wife, she was, You're hungry, yeah yeah,

69
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: And I was eating breakfast, launching dinner and I never

70
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: do that. So but guess what, I was sitting around

71
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: a house watching TV, watching Tiger King all the stuff,

72
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: you know, you know, just different shows on Fox, ABC everything,

73
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: you know, because Coben had put me in a lifestyle

74
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: I had never done. In my face, I couldn't control

75
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: my movements and so uncertainty and so we all trapped

76
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: into that, and so you know, you know, I'm not

77
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: saying I was depressed, but I was in a way,

78
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: um confused about when I went out in public, how

79
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: to our interact properly? And and then I read your stories.

80
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: I'm assuming you're based in California, and California is like

81
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: the COVID capital of the world right now, you know,

82
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: with the with the recent surge and productions being shut

83
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: down and things like that. How do you like? You said,

84
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: you know, taking vitamins and watching what you eat, but

85
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: you're still living that lifestyle. Is the media over extending

86
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: the story or you or you can live uncomfortable you

87
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: you move out comfortably in l A. Um no, I'm

88
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: as soon as you tell I don't like being too

89
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: close to people anyway. I like my space. I had

90
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: funny I went to the grocery store and I had

91
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: this shirt on that said back up if you can

92
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: read this, you too close. And somebody was like, where'd

93
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: you get that shirt? And I was like, I've had

94
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: this shirt for about five years. It's had nothing to

95
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 1: do with the pandemic. I like to you know, I

96
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: like a little distance. I like personal space. And I

97
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: know a lot of people don't understand that. Also, UM,

98
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: I do it bye bye rules. And I do think

99
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: that safety is very important. UM. If someone needs me

100
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: to marit, wear a mask. If thing that masks are

101
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 1: protecting us in some way, of course, I'm gonna do

102
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: what I need to do. UM. I have um older relatives,

103
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: I have young children. UM. I believe in, you know,

104
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: making sure that we're not spreading this thing even further.

105
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of crazy that people are still, um,

106
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: moving just any way that they want to, and um,

107
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: not thinking about others. Um, sometimes you gotta you gotta

108
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: do what you gotta do, but if you just don't

109
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 1: want to sit in the house, Because I really feel

110
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: like this time really, UM, I was talking to my

111
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: mom about it this morning, how it forced a lot

112
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 1: of us to slow down and focus on things that

113
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: we weren't really focusing on, and um, this was a

114
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: time to do that. And UM, we all went through

115
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: different emotions of how to do it. But a lot

116
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: of people, you know, don't want to work on themselves,

117
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: so they don't want to sit at home with themselves

118
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 1: and just kind of figure out, Okay, well what can

119
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: I do to better me? You know, they like, no,

120
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: I want to do this, and I want to do that.

121
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: I have in tantrums and stuff. Um, but I really

122
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: took the time to to work on me and things

123
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: that I need to get an order in my life.

124
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: Um mentally, physically, mentally, physically everywhere, you know, every aspect

125
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: and just focus on that. But no, we're not we're

Speaker 1: we're like, what excuse me, drop it on right there,

128
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: thank you? Or even where you're doing the show. I'm

129
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: assuming you're actually you take the pilot coming out of

130
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: COVID taping the series. How is this set? You know,

131
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: because you still gotta be funny, you still gotta be

132
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: comfortable with everybody around. It is a comedy, and so

133
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: you know, I know my background on thing you do.

134
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: Do you do a table read with every script? Do

135
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 1: they do a table and they do it via zoom

136
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 1: or do it do it live with the table reads? Well,

137
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 1: now we shot the pilot during the pandemic, and we're

138
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: still shooting the series right now. Uh, they have all

139
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: these extra rules, everything that's put in place. I basically

140
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: get here and makeup done and have to put a

141
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: mask and a shield back on my face. So it's

142
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: constant touch ups. Um. But for a table reads right now,

143
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: we do zoom table reads. Um. There's a lot of producers,

144
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: there's a lot of writers that we haven't even met

145
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: yet in person. Um, they've just been watching us on

146
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: the cameras and um, it's it's weird. Um. But of course,

147
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: the only time that we're able to be around each

148
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: other is when we're shooting and when we're rehearsing, and

149
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: you would it's weird sometimes because we'll we'll be next

00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: I've had to do three tests in one day, um,

158

Speaker 1: just to make sure that we keep us safe and

159
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: our crew safe and UM. Yeah. So it's it's been

160
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: weird because you're kind of trying to develop these characters

161
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: when you can't really relax. So UM. That's why a

162
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: lot of us were a little anxious with the show

163
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,640

262
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 1: I think he went from like a half a million

263
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: Instagram follows to like five million. I think he loves

264
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: less than that. I think he was. I think he

265
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: was even lower than half a million, because I know

266
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: it's a real low number. I didn't want to like

267
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: go below what it could have been. But this is

268
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: an amazing low number. And if you go to this

269
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: Instagram account he dances. He let's give a little background here.

270
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,959

271
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna get you in a minute, because you're animated

00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: people don't know him, but they've heard him, and so

274
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: to see him kind of playing out these little character

275
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,319

278
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: you know, other body find it Compared to somebody like that,

279
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: I would say Dick Van Dyke type, because he doesn't

280
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: act his age and he's very relatable and you have

281
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: to be at all. He is a big old kid.

282
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,120

286
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: for so long, and I think it's amazing that something

328
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: of times where I come across people where I'm like, Okay,

Speaker 1: who have worked so successfully for so long but are

334
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: also amazing human beings that show that you know, you

335
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: don't have to be crazy to make things work. I mean,

336
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: you gotta be a little crazy, but but the good crazy, well,

Speaker 1: we know you're crazy. Penny Proud. Okay, Penny Proud. Did

338
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: you think it would come back? Um? I didn't. I

339
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: didn't think a lot of people. For years. My voice

340
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: hasn't changed at all, literally loved. Somebody's like, do your

341
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: kids listen to you? Because when you're talking, you don't

342
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: sound like nobody's mama. You sound like a little part

343
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,239
Speaker 1: Like first of all, yes, they do listen to me.

344
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: Any way, No, I never thought that. Um. I mean

345
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: you've been hearing different things here and there, and so

346
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,959
Speaker 1: many things are getting rebooted and remade, and so of

347
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: course I didn't, you know, think that it was I

348
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: heard talks, but I didn't think it would be a possibility.

349
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: And um then I got the call from Ralph Farquar

350
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: and Bruce Smith and they basically said they wanted to

351
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: give it a go. And I'm like, hey, like, okay,

352
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 1: anybody else playing Penny, So y'all have we better figured

353
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: this out? And and you know, brought everybody along for

354
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: the ride. And it's been tough because, um, we actually

355
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 1: started recording right before the right when the pandemic was happening,

356
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: and so we had to start recording everything at home.

357
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: And uh, it's difficult to record at home when you

358
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: have kids that are not in school and they loud

359
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: like their mama. So we're figuring this out though we're

360
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 1: making it happens. I'm like, maybe just for a few minutes,

361
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: he's trying to get up part in the show. That's

362
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: what I know what they're trying to do. Now let's

363
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 1: talk about this, this this character. You know when you

364
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: talk about recording at home, you know this is not

365
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: pick up your phone with your cell phone recording at

366
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: the home. They sent you some special equipment. How did

367
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: that work out? Oh? Yes, we had to get the

368
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: right mics, um, the right Uh everything that needed to

369
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 1: go into a computer. And I literally, when I tell

370
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,479
Speaker 1: you this computer thing. Before this pandemic, I knew how

371
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: to ask some right email and uh, I knew how

372
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: to write to message, but as far as anything else, no,

373
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: So I've learned so much. Um. I had to learn

374
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: different tools and how to record myself and and even

375
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: having I don't even know the name of the things

376
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: that they sent, Like I had the abounce thing that

377
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: I had to put behind the microphone and I had

378
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: to put I went to visit my grandmother had to

379
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: put pillows on top of it to make sure that

380
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 1: the sound was the sound quality was good. Like, they

381
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: sent us so much stuff, and I'm like, Luckily my

382
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,479
Speaker 1: man is uh the recording artist, so he knows how

383
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 1: to cook up all that stuff. And I was like, Okay,

384
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: I don't have to um cry today. So luckily I

385
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: had the help that I needed. But yeah, they sent

386
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: us everything. When you know, you have to learn sometimes.

387
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: And so the thing about it is that when you

388
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 1: get it, to get an opportunity. So you know, I

389
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 1: looked at the this is Disney Plus where I just

390
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: saw sold that Jamie Fox uh animazing, which is really great.

391
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 1: Is I've seen it twice. It's really fun. And then

392
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: I hear about this announcement, uh, you know, the return.

393
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,199
Speaker 1: IMN just call it the return of Penny Proud. You

394
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,360
Speaker 1: know family Louder and Prouder. So when I hear Louder

395
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: and Prouder, I hear volume. I hear that they're gonna

396
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: be all over the place. But we know your Disney

397
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: Plus so you're not gonna get extreme. What does Louder

398
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: and proud of me? But to me louder and prouder.

399
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: I feel like when I was recording The Proud Family

400
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: back in the day, I had no idea what I

401
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: was a party. I was fourteen years old, and I

402
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: didn't realize the things that we were talking about in

403
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: the messages that we were giving young kids watching UM

404
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 1: watching the cartoon. And I feel like Louder and prouder.

405
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: Now it's like we it's like Proud Family two point oh.

406
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: We basically upgraded the conversations that are gonna be happening.

407
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: And I'm surprised to some of the things that you know,

408
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 1: Disney Plus is allowing us to do. But you know,

409
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: we have to do those type of things if we

410
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: want to maintain the authenticity of being the Proud Family,

411
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: we have to come through with the messages. We have

412
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: to come through with the knowledge. We have to come

413
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: through with the real things that need to be said

414
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: and leads to be taught and learned about, especially in

415
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: our community. So I just feel like there's a lot

416
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 1: of different storylines that people are gonna be like, what,

417
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 1: But you know that it's it's teaching young, teaching me young.

418
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 1: Interesting thing about your career because I've been fortunate to

419
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: watch your career, you know, I've been fortunate to be

420
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: on set with you and watch the professionalism, watch you

421
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,199
Speaker 1: watch how you at a young age and and and

422
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: and that's a young nager and become a young adult.

423
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 1: That's longevity. And you know, you have people who want

424
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: to get into business, can you give them any advice

425
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: or any thoughts to the process of what this business

426
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 1: can offer. You offer you for opportunity, but what you

427
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 1: have to give or sacrifice to be successful in this business. Uh,

428
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: this business is a very difficult one. UM. I always

429
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: tell people, please only get involved if it's something that

430
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 1: you have loved for that you love, um, fame and

431
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: all that popular stuff, and that doesn't really it's too

432
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: much going on to just want that. Um. And then

433
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:42,199
Speaker 1: also it's it's practice, it's studying, it's taking it seriously,

434
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's a very difficult. It's like it's

435
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: mentally it can be completely draining. And I know a

436
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: lot of people looking at me and they're like, oh,

437
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: you're you know you you turned out so well when

438
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 1: and I said you know. That's because I was able

439
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: to recognize when things were too much for me or

440
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: when I need to just change how I looked at

441
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: things mentally, Like in this business, you're gonna be told

442
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: no a million times, and it's gonna make you question yourself.

443
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: It's gonna make you rethink everything that you know about you,

444
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: and you have to get stuck in your head that hey,

445
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep getting told no, But that doesn't mean

446
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: that I'm not good, that doesn't mean that I'm not

447
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: worth it. It It just means that that one thing wasn't

448
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 1: meant for me, and now I'm on the hunt for

449
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: the next thing. And uh, I know someone asked me recently,

450
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: like what did you audition for that you didn't get?

451
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 1: And it took me like ten minutes to think about

452
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: it because I was like, honestly after illip for something.

453
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: If I haven't heard back, oh no, it's out of

454
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: it's it's it's gone, and I'm on to the next thing.

455
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: I can't dwell on the past, you know. So if

456
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 1: you want to get into a business like this, you

457
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: just gotta make sure ear is straight because a lot

458
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 1: of people don't understand that, you know, we're human beings,

459
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: We're not machines, and we go through the same things

460
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 1: that everybody else goes through. And if you want to

461
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: do it, just keep hustling and fighting, and people gonna

462
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 1: tell you can't. Just like anything else, you gotta prove

463
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: them wrong. Well you, I'm proud of you, Penny, proud, okay.

464
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 1: And I've seen I've seen the journey and I know

465
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: you know, there's so many there's so many casualties out

466
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: there and you know what I'm talking about. And uh,

467
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 1: and it's sad by that process because it's really can

468
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: be famous on the series and then all of a sudden,

469
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: you're constantly chasing that that series or that moment or

470
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: that opportunity, and like you said, you have to actually

471
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: walk away. You have to shut down and don't let

472
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,199
Speaker 1: these negatives win. And if you let the negatives win,

473
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: I think that's when that's when you don't have But

474
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 1: you've alway had a balanced life and I always tell

475
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: people on the show that it's important to have a

476
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 1: balanced life, that you are not consumed by what you

477
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: do but who you are, and you've always had that

478
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: as part of your mantra telling Can you tell us

479
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: about that Penny Pig, teach me call. I've always, um,

480
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: I've always wanted to have it all and UM, I

481
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 1: remember being younger and people like, don't have kids yet,

482
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 1: and I'm like, first of all, what I want to do? Um,

483
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 1: But I just feel like you have to have balance.

484
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 1: I understand that what I do for a living is

485
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 1: my job and I love it, and I'm very fortunate

486
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 1: to be able to do something that I love. Um,

487
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: it is not my complete entire life. UM. I am

488
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: a regular person with an extraordinary job. And UM, it's difficult,

489
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 1: especially in a business like this, because you, like you said,

490
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: you have those moments where you have the TV shows

491
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 1: and you're on top, and the next thing you know,

492
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: people are looking at you like you've never worked before,

493
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: and you're like, wait, what, Like I've been hustling and

494
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: I've been doing X, Y and Z, and what do

495
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,679
Speaker 1: you mean? And you kind of just have to, like

496
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: I said, it's all it's all about your mental and

497
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: and understanding. Like I tell my kids all the time,

498
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, mommy has always wanted to be a mommy,

499
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: and mommy has always wants to be an actress. So

500
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 1: mommy has to juggle both if mommy's tired, so what

501
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,560
