Speaker 2 (00:08):
See here's a professional well John, you John, I don't.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Know who they are, all right?
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Did you not realize it was me?
Speaker 3 (00:30):
By the way, Well, so I didn't know.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
The email is Coulton at our James know.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Our James Management.
Speaker 5 (00:40):
I was just I was telling people.
Speaker 6 (00:43):
I was just like, I don't know, it's so ironically as.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
Being the person like reaching out. I'm not like you.
Speaker 7 (00:52):
As pretending to be somebody else, someone else?
Speaker 1 (00:55):
What are you doing doing that?
Speaker 5 (00:58):
I used to pretend to be my own assistant, but
then I always would screw up and being like I
would then answer as myself and that I'd be.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Like, oh man, I just got to commit to the lie.
Speaker 8 (01:08):
Yeah, yeah, I'm so sure that Beverly is excited about this,
this sort of thing.
Speaker 9 (01:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
When I used to Yeah, when I used to try
to work with the brands that I really wanted.
Speaker 7 (01:20):
How big was, how many assistants were there? Was there
like Cindy who could you know? It was Dave and
Upper managed.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
I couldn't make the lie so like it was. I
used my sister in law's name because I wanted it
to still be closed.
Speaker 7 (01:36):
She did be on the phone stuff though, too right,
but that totally makes it better.
Speaker 8 (01:42):
So you could point at a bridget if someone called
you out, you'd be.
Speaker 5 (01:44):
Like, there's and she tries to law. Yeah, my very
short lived music career. She was my assistant, which so
there's like a string, but she wasn't really my assistant.
I basically just put her. Yeah, I just pretend it
was all. So should we dive into the episode because
now this has gotten awkward?
Speaker 8 (02:06):
Yeah, because for me, I feel fine.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
You always feel fun.
Speaker 7 (02:10):
Do you remember how each other? Let's do that. Let's
do the intro you're listening to catching up with the Candid.
I'm McKenzie Crossman.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
And I'm really Mitchell, and I'm David Galla, and we
have a guest. I'm Calton James, and you are the
infamous t Bone Television's t Bone Television Divisions. I mean,
we have had wrestleman, We have had so much fun
(02:42):
recalling some of those amazing episodes with dude, Like, I mean,
the think that you'd.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Play a character named t Bone.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
When I was born, the doctor apparently looked down at
me and said one day and I.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Looked up, yeah, and cries actually, because I mean the
film credits like t Bone.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
Like that's the that is I know, do you remember
how Ruthy and t Bone met each other? Because wasn't
t Bone kind of bad news bears at least at first, or.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
And he judged him for his.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Name, and I mean, you take one look at me
and you're like, there's trouble, right, trouble of coming.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, yeah, I actually do not remember.
Speaker 7 (03:35):
Wat I'm sure someone does remember.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Well, we have some to the club because most of
us all and actually I would say pretty much ninety
nine percent of our guests do not remember, like how
we all?
Speaker 7 (03:48):
I don't remember anything either.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Well, what's what's weird?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Is I actually so I never watched the episodes Originally
I couldn't watch myself. I would make me cringe that,
you know, wonder why I'm no longer an actor.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
So I actually watched some of the episodes last night.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
But I actually I think I skipped over because we
didn't meet immediately because what what, I guess where I
got to we were like already in it, or we
had already met each other. So I don't I don't
remember exactly.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 8 (04:25):
Well, when you showed up today. We I had introduced
myself because we had never worked together. You'd showed up
on the on our eleventh season, right.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
It was that it was the last season of.
Speaker 8 (04:34):
The show, and by then I was already out, so
I never got to meet t Bone, but I got
to say replacement. If there is one character on the
show that I never worked with but I definitely knew
all about, it was t Bone. If you were one
of our infamous guests, I'll take that. Take that absolutely
infamous and mentioned all the.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Time, like or did we end with Ruthie?
Speaker 8 (04:58):
Highly referenced.
Speaker 7 (05:01):
If we were like still an item when the show ended.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Zero memory, No, I get that far last night.
Speaker 7 (05:08):
Someone will remember.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
And when we get to those episodes of the rewatch,
which we are.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
Still in twenty thirty three.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
You know what it's you know, most shows don't make
it eleven seasons.
Speaker 7 (05:22):
No, it's a lot.
Speaker 8 (05:23):
Touching over the candids might not make it to eleven.
Speaker 7 (05:27):
We're trying, I mean, you know, imagine trying to watch
all of the Simpsons or something.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
Yeah, but we have a questions for you. What was
it like, you know, especially coming in on season eleven, what.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
Was it like?
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Kind of like joining our cast, Like it.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Was very welcoming cast, very welcoming cast. I was kind
of my bread and butter for the majority of my
career was just slaying guest stars. So I was very
used to coming into a close knit family and kind
of like being the outsider that's just going in and
journeyman doing their work and getting out.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, it's just still a little heist, you know. I
don't know about that.
Speaker 8 (06:10):
That's your Max mackenzie's assessment.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
But so I was very used to that, and I
do remember feeling very grateful of how welcoming the cast
and the crew and everyone was. And it's a very
very quite possibly the most laid back set to this
day that I've ever been on.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I mean, it was big chilling on that set.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
Well, it's always good to hear because like for us,
that was just the environment in which we grew up in.
So it's always still a little shocking when you hear
from other people they're like, that's not quite the norm.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
No, no, no, there's it's definitely.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Not the norm. I mean the norm is you are
an outsider, you're coming in.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
And again, I had a good career as an actor
and positive experiences. But yeah, there's definitely always a kind
of like, you know, the substitute teacher vibe on set.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
Yeah, at what point did you decide to just stop acting?
Speaker 3 (07:08):
It's kind of like a it was probably gradual, right, but.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Yeah, it's it's kind of like a long and wacky tail.
Like I I started working at A Basically, I moved
out of my home really young because I tested out
of school and I was sixteen. I went and I
did a movie with zac Efron in Georgia in Atlanta,
and so since I tested out of school, I like
drove to Atlanta on my own and lived on my own.
(07:33):
And so when it came back, I was like, I'm
I'm an adult.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Now I'm gonna remember that attitude.
Speaker 8 (07:39):
Yeah, but I hope.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
They're sitting down. I was not an adult. And my parents,
you're independent, God bless them.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
They're like okay, But my dad basically was like, you're
not going to just sit around and do nothing and
wait for auditions to come in, Like, you have to, uh,
get some kind of job. I don't care if you
make money. You just have to get a job. So
he actually sent me. It's so funny. I was actually
at a meeting at the very agency I'm about to
speak at yesterday, but with a client.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
But he sent me to an agency. I was really young.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I wasn't eighteen yet, and I went there and they
gave me the job because I'm sure I had nothing
to do with who my dad was. They gave me
the job and then they sent me downstairs to HR
and I gave him my ID and they're like.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
You can't work here.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (08:24):
And it's like, okay, we called my dad in the parking.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Look.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
I got the job and it was fired in the
same day. And so then he's like, all right, I'll
make another call and he called a casting office and
this officeparently didn't care. And I just worked there as
an unpaid intern for a while, and I was still auditioning,
and it was because I was unpaid, I could go
an audition and you know, do whatever.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
And I would.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
Just kind of work there more and more, and I
started to get really really fascinated by it and really
like just loved working and going into an office every
day and having this it was like this weird like
thing I've never experienced before because I was an actor
since I was literally in diapers, and I literally remember
like calling my agent and being like I'm out, Like
this is I'm no longer want to be an actor. Yeah,
(09:10):
and it was there's a you know, an agency to
it and all of that. And and how I how
I went from casting into management is you know, at
a certain point, casting is very very intense, very huh
like all consuming, and not that management is it, but
it's definitely more my speed. And I eventually went into
(09:34):
management and work at my dad's company.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
You cultivate like relationships as a manager, like you're you're
like helping their careers and like in support, whereas like casting,
it's like much it's much it's a much harder I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
You need to be you really need to be a
certain type. You have to have an encyclopedic memory. I
mean like I was at the Audio cl which is
like the casting awards, and I was at the bar
getting a drink and somebody like tapped me on the
shoulder and she was like, I have a self tape
of you when you were twelve years old, And I'm like, how.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
Do you know that?
Speaker 1 (10:12):
How do you remember that?
Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
They remember? And like so I have the mind for it.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
I would never I have zero memory. I would never
make it. I like I've already failed. Yeah yeah, I
don't have a shot because you're still working.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Yeah yeah, yeah, el.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
I mean we're all partners, but yeah, he's still he's
still chugging along.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
I remember you talking about working in the cast like
I thought it was a casting office. Yeah, when you
were on the show, you had already been working there.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I think that was before it was.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Either dooring or before there was I do remember you
talking about doing that.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
There was a period that after I worked at the
casting office, I then went to go work at my
dad's office maybe, And I think that's when I actually
auditioned for Seventh Heaven because I like was working the
casting office and it was absolutely uh it was too
much work.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
And I had a moment where I was like, maybe
I want to do.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Get back into acting, but I still wanted to keep
working every day. And it's actually I went to work
in my dad's office and answer as phones and I
actually went and auditioned in the exact same building of
my dad's office for Brenda.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
Oh yeah, which was.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
No, no, it was in it was in a burbank.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
Those offices. Okay, I'm just trying to remember all of
the different places that we've once had offices because there
were spelling.
Speaker 8 (11:39):
Yeah, the spelling buildings.
Speaker 7 (11:41):
Ye have to go in a lot of really interesting
buildings all over LA that you otherwise would never have
been in. Like you know that big, really tall one
off of Wilshire by the beauty store.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
What's it?
Speaker 5 (11:53):
She says, beauty store.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
We say Liberta Tarpets is by the tarpets because I'm.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
Saying that's what's funny, but I'm laughing.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
But there are like you know, there's that other place
off of Sunset with like the giant globe and it's
this weird like are there There are places where you'd
be like.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
I wonder what's inside that building?
Speaker 7 (12:10):
And then run day you get an audition and it's like.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Chairs abandoned.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
Empty rooms of folding chairs and a solitary camera not
suspicious at all.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
The buildings that's all done. Now everything is on tape. Yeah,
it's it's wild. Ever since the pandemic, it's such a sad.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
I mean, I miss those audition days where because I
actually enjoyed the audition process and I to now have
the on tape thing I hate the I won't I always.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Like it tapes because I didn't enjoy the audition process
at all.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
I like people, I liked the interaction. I liked working
with someone and being like, oh, that was great, but
let's do it a little different, like throw something at you.
Because I loved having to be on your toes. I
didn't like. I feel like on tape everything becomes so rehearsed,
everything is so well.
Speaker 8 (13:13):
I'm in the middle between you guys. So like for me,
the like making your own tape is more autonomous. You
know you can you can make the tape and the
performance you you could send the one you want. Yeah,
so like you can get it just the way you
want it. But I also feel the same way you
do about the audition process because I really loved the
(13:36):
immediacy of like having to go into the room to
meet some people, to interface really quick and then and
then get my performance out the way I wanted it
on the spot. It has to be done the right
way at the right then and there, and then to
have that moment where you if you if you impress
them enough, or you had that moment where they wanted
(13:59):
to work with you. To have that pivot where they go, oh, well,
what if we did it like this or in the scene.
We thought it was more like and have that conversation
and so having when that went well, which was not
terribly often right like it's it's you're always kind of
shooting in the dark. But when the when the in
person audition went well, god felt great. You know what
I mean. Where you nailed it. You nailed the pivot,
(14:19):
You had the two different performances, you showed the change,
all those things that you just can't really demonstrate on
a tape. But that being said, tape are more convenient.
You know, you can send the audition that you want
that is more of of whatever your interpretation is. So
like again, there's benefits to both sides of a lot.
I grew up like you as I was an audition kid,
(14:41):
you know, like I was used to hustling auditions and
doing multiple ones a day, and you.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
Know I loved it.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
Yeah, it's sport. It was. It was like a sport.
I know what you mean by that.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
I didn't play soccer, but I my sport was the
sport of acting.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
We mentioned that, you're well, no, because last night I
was like talking about how sadly. You know, my kids
are all playing sports. My husband played a sport, and
I'm like, I didn't have a sport, and Mac was like,
your sport.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Your family is athletic.
Speaker 5 (15:13):
Oh, they are athletic.
Speaker 8 (15:14):
There.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Yeah, that's why I can't play. I can't learn how
to play tennis because my five year old's already better
than me, and I just can't accept that. I cannot.
I cannot accept that. But cold, let's get back to you,
not about my issues. There are so many. One of
our favorite episodes, too, is the tattoo episode the Tea Bone.
Speaker 7 (15:35):
I think it's everyone's favorite. So that's my favorite tattoo.
Speaker 8 (15:38):
Let's talk about the Yellow Family Room.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
I still have it.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
But like what we loved about, like your character and
like what you navigated with, Like you weren't You were on.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Dexter too, Shift?
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yes, I was.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
I love that show. I just started watching the new one.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
I haven't seen it yet. I've heard good things though.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Yeah, it's very good.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
I mean it's the same familiar voice and like Eerie,
the Dexter music is so great and recognizable.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
What was it like being on I'm shifting? What what
was it like being on ear? Because that's also like
another lot was his favorite show?
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Apparently it was.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Wow, we just found it.
Speaker 8 (16:23):
We found some old interview that where I apparently said
e Er was my favorite show when I was like, obviously,
I don't know why.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
I think I know why because it was it was
known at the time of like killing over twenty five share,
which like that doesn't exist, but it was known as
like the serious yes kind of cool good it was
like the drama kid show.
Speaker 8 (16:47):
Yeah no, and I did fancy myself a drama kid.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
Yeah you like the deep stuff, Yeah yeah, I like
the good st Yeah yeah.
Speaker 8 (16:55):
I definitely. I definitely had that moment in that interview.
Speaker 4 (16:59):
I guess, absolutely amazing, amazing experience. Noah Wiley's one of
the other than you kind folks, one of the coolest
I ever worked with. He's just fantastically cool. I mean,
everyone on that it was a really really great experience.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
But much they had probably a bunch of longer hours
because they were as efficient efficient.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Yeah, yeah, that was.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
I've never experienced anything like that in my entire life,
the efficiency of seventh Heavens.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
Because I think the most most sets are you know,
they're definitely I mean I think we got at one
point down to like six day shoots.
Speaker 8 (17:43):
Yeah, we were almost an episode a week, which is
like half hour comedy schedule, like, but we were Yeah,
we started it was eight days, and then at some
point it became seven, and then I think at the
very end it was down to six times.
Speaker 5 (17:55):
And even at eight days, I think a lot of
shows were typically took a lot longer struggling, yeah, to
keep a schedule like that, and they were thirteen fourteen,
fifteen hour days, and we were usually shot, especially season eleven,
were were talking out of school.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
May want to cut this out, but I believe there
was like a mandate of like, you guys got to
stay untill lunch.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
At one point it was it was season eleven. We
had to have one shot.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
We were allowed once, and you were like sit around
like we like.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
Hang, no, we would we would wait, yeah, and we'd
have like an hour lunch.
Speaker 7 (18:27):
Because I was still stuck in school because I didn't
test out. You you were in school theoretically, technically, I
was really just in there playing Oregon Trail.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
Well, you got dysentery school so much, my gosh, I
so happy to get out of that when that ended.
Speaker 7 (18:49):
But yeah, yeah, well at sixteen.
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Yeah, that's you got you tested out. That's amazing out,
Like you're.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
Like, I'm done, Yeah, I'm I mean to the point
that like leading up to my testing out, like I
remember my teacher because I did like a not homeschooling.
I would like go in twice a week to a
teacher like your packets, and you'd be like you gotta
like at least pretend that you don't know you're leaving
here in six months, Like you got to work.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
With me here, had you had packet? Yeah, Well, I
just knew.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I knew I don't need to children can't know.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
I knew since birth I was going to do something
in this business, and I knew that what I would
be doing would not be requiring a college degreer. Honestly,
I always knew I was going to be a manager
really always.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
Yeah, that was just always ingrained, and it was just
was acting like to kind of like understand that side
of me.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
No, Like I definitely like I went through a period
where I was passionate about acting. I would say from
like like fourteen to like sixteen, I really got into it.
I went to acting class all the time, I went
to the same acting class. I would do two of
the classes in the same class. I was just obsessed
with it and I did so I did get to
a certain period, but then I don't know, when I
(20:04):
got a little older, it just like it just I
think the whole thing. I didn't like to be on
scene in that way, if that makes sense, Like this
is a little uncomfortable for me, Like this is I'm
used to standing over there.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 4 (20:19):
Yeah, I don't know about anxiety so much. It's just
kind of like watching myself. I would just kind of
be like I would I don't know, cringe a little
and just be like that stuff that I wasn't born
for it.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
I don't like watch it.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
I think there's a difference between I've said that there's
a difference between entertainers and artists. Yeah, so like entertainers
can be those like dancing monkeys and can like at
any point in time, turn on and be there. And
then there's like the artistic side that's like they like
to do the art of it, but they don't necessarily
(20:52):
like all the recognition and all the fandom and all
the like everything.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Plenty of actors that do tho.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
No, as I'm saying, is I'm.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Like and ones without publicists.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Yeah, but I'm saying I think also like you can
enjoy the process but then still be like, but I
don't like the other like fancy side where like all
the lights and all the cameras.
Speaker 7 (21:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Yeah, And I like being around it for sure, you know,
but I just don't like when I go and visit
my clients on set, I'm.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Like, I'm so happy that I'm tisty. Yeah, I don't
have to makeup on this is great.
Speaker 7 (21:22):
Honestly, we were always saying that, Like, I think a
lot of us agree that you feel like you do
your best work when you're doing off camera for someone else,
And it's like just being in the standing in the
shadows makes me like, huh yeah.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
Doing the work without the pressure.
Speaker 7 (21:36):
Yeah, or but you can get so much more into
it because you're not like a deer in the headlights.
But it's me Yeah, yeah, that's hard.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
Do you think that, like, also having been an actor
kind of like makes you even like a stronger manager
because you understand both sides.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
Yeah, I feel like it was like all of it
was trend, the acting, the casting, all of it was
kind of training.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
That's interesting. Actually, it gives you insight into like everything
that a manager needs to orchestrate, and you've you've worked
at all of those different parts of the process, so
now you can see it from above. And I try too.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
I know what it's like.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
And Ne did some pretty big movies as well.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
Yeah, I was very lucky. I was very I had
cute little cheeks.
Speaker 10 (22:35):
You know.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
There's also a thing I feel like when you're younger
is that you can get momentum in terms of like
they're so afraid of hiring kids because they're afraid the
kid's gonna you know, like screw the pooch. But if
you have a bunch of things on your resume, they're like, well,
these ten other people were okay with it.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
And so I feel like.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I definitely had a lot of luck in that I
started very early, and so I was lucky enough to
kind of like, well, get credits when you're not maybe
your chops aren't really there, but again you have the
cute cheeks and then that that kind of I was
very lucky in that regard.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
So I feel like a lot of it was.
Speaker 8 (23:14):
No, there's there's truth in that. Yeah, when when when
you're a kid actor you. Momentum definitely plays a part
if you're if you're lucky enough to kind of start,
you could you could feel it too. I mean I
remember in the nineties in my early career too, like
that feeling of like wow, like we're we're going you
start to feel like you're going from set to set
(23:34):
things that you know, everything kind of accelerates and that's
and and again that's just you know, I think you're right.
I think sets look at at kids is like a
partial liability, like having you know, because.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
You yeah, say you kids and animals exactly.
Speaker 8 (23:49):
Yeah, so you can mitigate that with it with a
good resume.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
Yeah yeah, well and being a part of the Jurassic parkhiys. Like,
by the way, my daughter would freak out because she's
with Rassic Park and I just took my five year
old to go see the newest one.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Yeah I haven't seen it yet.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
She was fine with it. Apparently, she just said the
Dinosaurs of Hungry, Okay, totally fine with like.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
The whole review.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
I'm just from a five year old, just like because
I was like, is it too scary and she's like, no,
just a Dinosaurgia hungry. And I was like, okay, cool,
are you what was that like?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Because that's that was another fantastic experience.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
I mean again, very lucky for that one.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
It was. It was cool. I mean they had the
whole animatronic dinosaur, which is cool.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
Because nowadays everything's onn like, oh yeah, so much you.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Don't do then?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, it was so fun.
Speaker 8 (24:46):
They hired real dinosaurs.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, and that's are.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
You talking to me about me being a dinosaur?
Speaker 7 (24:53):
Are you still into music?
Speaker 4 (24:54):
Like you were all all like dabble for fun?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
But no.
Speaker 7 (25:01):
Again, I'll remember the like the seventh seven days. You
were very into spanding my underground hip hop knowledge.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Oh yeah, important, I'm still expanding.
Speaker 7 (25:12):
He's like, here, take this snare drum, start making some beats.
Speaker 11 (25:16):
All right?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Yeah I had do you still have it? I remember
I bought the sample the snare.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
I was like, I should not have had money at that.
Speaker 7 (25:32):
You made a lot with garage band.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
I think, oh yeah, garage band and logic. Yeah, I
mean again, I'll do it like I'll do it for fun.
But I still have like creative energies in me. You
know that that uh I get out, but it's really weird.
It like comes and goes sometimes I actually just bought
a new mixer yesterday.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
But yeah, all.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
The things that you did back in the day.
Speaker 7 (25:59):
Well, I mean I'm like that a lot too. Though
things come and go, oh yes, we're there's it's always
a cycle, and some circus circles are bigger than others.
Speaker 8 (26:08):
But totally that's true, very true.
Speaker 7 (26:11):
I'm in my woodworking yeah, yeah, I'm like blumber. Yeahs
with all the tools I know it is.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Hopefully do you have fingers through this?
Speaker 5 (26:26):
I know I am a little worried about Mac with
like a saw honestly, thoughts there's yeah, I'm just scared.
I did tell her also though, to make sure that
she's filming it so at least we can like have footage.
Speaker 7 (26:38):
Wants to capture the gore. She wants to snuff film
if you lose.
Speaker 8 (26:43):
Your finger, we need the content, Mac.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
No, it's also just so I can just check in
on her, make sure that she's like has all this
proper safety equipment too. It's just that Mama baron me.
But it wouldn't be a bad eye.
Speaker 7 (27:00):
Yeah, you know, baby monitors are incredibly useful things that
are not employed enough. Really, Yeah, explain baby monitors trail cams.
I mean they're just they're great.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
I mean I think that's watching and.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Nobody thinks about it.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
They're like, oh, it's just a baby monitor there, but
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
It's also like all the ring cameras that people put around.
Speaker 7 (27:21):
Yes, yes, I'm really like just a peeping tom.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
I just watch.
Speaker 7 (27:31):
You should see my binocular collection.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
You are getting sideways, I know, but that's so it
is your job. Do you have any any memories or
anything that stands out from your time with our madness?
Speaker 4 (27:51):
I remember sleeping all the time, really, I remember always
being asleep.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
So how did that work out?
Speaker 8 (27:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (27:59):
Always we had such long breaks just because I've always
been a night out still in the night out, and
we had to because we would carpool together and we
had I had to wake up at like I mean
it literally, I remember being like, I have no life.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
I had to wake up at something insane like four
am to be able to make a six thirty call
time yep. And so I would and I'm not good.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
From from where we live.
Speaker 7 (28:24):
Yeah, some time I.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Woke up, yeah, and so I'm not good at that.
And so I would just be like constantly depleted.
Speaker 10 (28:33):
So would you guys it does get cold, would you
guys just be like, yeah, yeah, I want the twenties
to fly on the wall on those conversations in the
morning on your way to work or were you guys.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Pretty common.
Speaker 7 (28:48):
Yeah, probably noisier asleep? Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
I mean I just remember it being dark and quiet.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
I mean it's literally like pitch black ass.
Speaker 7 (28:59):
I might have fallen a sleep and then you were
driving the.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
Sun coming up on four or five. We were we
were all there for a long time.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
Wait, would you guys be done at the same time
to go home together?
Speaker 8 (29:10):
You guys probably had a lot of your scenes together
at that point.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Most of our scenes were and again before lunch, so
it was like even if one of us had to stay,
it would be like.
Speaker 7 (29:19):
Another hour, stay for lunch, then important things to do
and then.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
I never had a car. Actually that's a lie. I
did have a cardy Yeah.
Speaker 8 (29:30):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:31):
We definitely had a lot of good cars on set,
usually thanks to David because David Wild always had the
cool Did I go well.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
I you were famous in Valencia? You were like no,
you were like would be seen you and and the
PT Cruiser Like it would be like you would drive
by it.
Speaker 8 (29:55):
I'm assuming you're talking about my Prowler. I had a
Plymouth Prowler. Wait, it wasn't a PT Cruiser, was cruiser,
but they they shared. I am I.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Some PT Cruiser ready, I still have it. I still
have my yellow Prowler. Yeah, it was bright yellow PT Cruiser.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
S it's slightly cool.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
Yeah, it's so.
Speaker 7 (30:20):
Asked about.
Speaker 8 (30:21):
Plymouth existed. They made the Prowler was based on the
nineteen forties roadsters. So the front wheels come out, it's
very triangular. And then the PT Cruiser was like tril
It was like some of the design cues brought up
to like a I don't know, a minivan or a
crossover size right, so it was more of like But
(30:42):
but the one that.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
I had.
Speaker 8 (30:45):
Was the was the Prowler. It was like a little, uh,
little Plymouth sports car. But it was bright yellow, and
so when I would drive it around town, it's you know, stuck.
Speaker 5 (30:55):
Out cars were bright.
Speaker 8 (30:58):
I always had. I had a colorful ray of vehicles.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Your Hummer was also bright orange.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
That you can't get a Hummer you don't want a
quiet color.
Speaker 5 (31:09):
I had a black one.
Speaker 8 (31:12):
Not my best decision tree the.
Speaker 5 (31:15):
Hummer but mine wasn't mine, and I followed suit because
you got one.
Speaker 8 (31:18):
I thought it was cool there, Okay, but we don't
focus on those.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
Yeah, I think we're making that correct distinction.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Well, because a hummer is a that's a vehicle like
that's that is wild and wacky, that's that's not a
vehicle form Yeah literally, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (31:39):
This is also what happens when you give like young
actors money to like buy their first cars. We make
really smart decisions.
Speaker 7 (31:45):
I'm pretty sure the first car I bought was a
Volvo Wagon.
Speaker 5 (31:48):
Wow, because were you six?
Speaker 3 (31:51):
Yeah about something like that.
Speaker 7 (31:55):
But I just wanted to say the responsible.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
Car, that's the most response car, and their history car.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
I just wanted to win a point where possible.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Yeah, that's because your mother about it and was driving it.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
Details aren't necessary.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
It was not your choice of the vehicle. Had it
been the next choice.
Speaker 7 (32:15):
I know, I know I had half a point.
Speaker 5 (32:17):
It would be like a motorcycle.
Speaker 7 (32:20):
I've never I've made one practical vehicle decision, I think
or no zero. Oh, I did the truck that was
very loud and fast, and then was like I want
small and manual stick shift.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
And then I was like, oh I want electric and
that was terrible.
Speaker 7 (32:36):
Then I was like, oh, I want military truck that
has three years and max is out at sixty five
miles an hour and as older than I am. And
then there were a few of the motorcycletorcycles. That's the one.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
I don't like that one.
Speaker 7 (32:50):
I used to commute of the motorcycle and I used
to trap my saddle to the like the passenger seat
and put my helmet on the little passenger foot kickstand.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
And just I'm not going to say you strapped the
saddle your back like like Captain America.
Speaker 7 (33:03):
No, No, I had my other stuff, got it?
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Got it?
Speaker 7 (33:06):
You can bring a lot of cans of pinto beans
and wine home in a backpack cycle.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
I haven't put that to test.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
But don't hit the brakes that hard?
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Okay? Noted? Should I be?
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Don't even so she's the derailer I'm getting.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
Yes, can you tell?
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Can you tell you guys are the straight straight man?
Speaker 7 (33:36):
We try circling back a lot.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
I have not even dare the host circle back?
Speaker 5 (33:42):
I have not even said that. I mean there should
be a game like you could take a shot shots
for how many times I have to say circle back?
But I haven't done it today. So there we go.
Circle back. Let's come back to what we're here talking about, which.
Speaker 7 (33:58):
I am medicated for eighty today.
Speaker 6 (34:01):
But it's not working. It's not working off the coffee.
It's like counteracting it. I don't know what's happening. But
I'm looking at our sheet here too. Because all the
storylines were with family. Did you remember this?
Speaker 5 (34:17):
Uh? Most of your storylines dealt with family, abandonment and
learning how to find your voice and value.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Wow, which is remember that.
Speaker 5 (34:26):
Oftentimes we read things and we don't remember that.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
That's a great storyline.
Speaker 7 (34:31):
That's why you left home early to try and connect
with those characters.
Speaker 5 (34:40):
And it's like it's it is a challenge, I think
sometimes coming into a set that's like been around for
a long time. But like I felt like we all
kind of ended up. You became a part of the family.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Like yeah, I felt yeah, yeah, And again it was
it was a very intimate set. It was very it
wasn't that big. It wasn't in the amount of people
and in you're always in the same location, Santa Monica.
Santa Monica like literally the farthest place, like another universe
from at the time crazy.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
Yeah, no, it was.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
It was definitely like I again felt very welcome there
for sure.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
We just went back this spring and actually like saw
how they had changed. It's now a post house and
it is still cool.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Really, it's so cool.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
I would like to worry.
Speaker 8 (35:34):
Well, when we contacted the post house and we were like, hey,
well we want to we want to come by to
the facility and like we shoot a podcast. You know,
this was our old studio, they were like no, it
wasn't you have the wrong place. And we were like no, no,
how did they know this was We shot here for
a decade. This was our building and this and they
were like no, no, no, We've we've been here since
(35:56):
like twenty fifteen. And we were like, oh, we wrapped
in seven, so like maybe two or three tenants before,
you you know, was this was our building. And then
like when we finally went back there, everyone was just
like like we were like taught them a new piece
of the history of like their own place. Like they
(36:18):
had no idea that this was like our studio, like
our own little like world that we had there.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Yeah, many floors inside, so yeah, it's.
Speaker 8 (36:26):
All renovated out now it's a whole different place.
Speaker 5 (36:29):
It's no longer the face ramp.
Speaker 7 (36:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (36:33):
Do you remember the ramp before you'd go up into.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:38):
I think the train goes through a part of what
was the parking lot or something like that.
Speaker 8 (36:42):
Now there's a big Metro station there and stuff they've Yeah,
the old train tracks where we used to park is
now actually operating met like rail station like Metro.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Yeah, unbelievable.
Speaker 8 (36:53):
It's it's all. It's all different down there.
Speaker 7 (36:56):
We were right position position, Yeah, it says the person
who didn't drive ever to that.
Speaker 5 (37:03):
Yes, because driving.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Somebody was.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
We got to hit the carpool lane.
Speaker 7 (37:11):
It was it was very benefit I gave back.
Speaker 8 (37:16):
The worst thing ever when I started driving myself to
work was losing access to the carpool lane. Going from
having your parents driving you to driving yourself. That was
the big I just added a half hour to my drive.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
Yeah, I mean, especially on the four or five. Yeah,
although again we'd be wrapped so early that I actually
don't remember the drives home being that if you at
lunch then.
Speaker 7 (37:41):
A little before three you were usually okay, yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
I don't think we were ever there after three. It's wild.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
Do you ever get recognized as Tea Bone. Do people
ever like come up on the streets.
Speaker 4 (37:55):
Very very occasionally, and it's always like, you know, it's
always cool and it's uh, you know, it's great fan base.
Obviously all of them are fantastic. But no, what I
normally get is a like, do I know you from somewhere?
You know those Yeah, that's that's typically the.
Speaker 8 (38:13):
What's your response to that? We were talking about another one?
You know, do you mess with people and trying to
figure it out or do you know?
Speaker 1 (38:21):
It's I go case by case.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
It's a weird one because it's like, I don't know,
you don't want to start. Like sometimes you'll get into like, oh,
I used to be an actor, and then they'll be
like list your resume, you know, yeah, have you seen this?
Speaker 7 (38:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Dancing for them? You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (38:43):
Like no, no, and then you have to keep going.
They're like, no, I know, I didn't. I didn't watch that.
Speaker 8 (38:51):
But have you guys ever done the thing where someone's like, yeah,
I know you from somewhere and you're like, oh, yeah,
I'm you know, I'm an actor and stuff, and they're like, no,
that's it, I know you from somewhere. And you're like, oh,
now you're.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Yeah, well yeah, it's definitely it's definitely a weird one.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
Yeah, sometimes you just have to say I don't know,
I don't know. It just depends on what you're capable
of that day.
Speaker 11 (39:21):
Yeah, case, I know, it's it's it's always awkward because
you don't want to be that weird one that's like
I'm on television, like you.
Speaker 8 (39:31):
Don't, there's a there's a weird dance, like you know,
I'm an actor. Sometimes people recognize me from you have
to do the flip you kind of you try to
get that out without sounding like like you were waiting
for the question.
Speaker 5 (39:45):
Exactly exactly, but you're very successful now at managing and
loving that side of it.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Yeah, now job I was born to do for sure.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
And what's your favorite Do you want to do anything
else after that?
Speaker 3 (39:58):
Or do you want to.
Speaker 4 (40:00):
Well, I mean the thing with management is it's so
like it's not you're not an agent. It's wildly versatile,
like you can do.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Yeah, would you like to do that too?
Speaker 5 (40:10):
Sure?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Yeah, I mean there's it's the sky is the limit,
there's nothing that can't be done, which is I think
my favorite part about is every single day is different.
I get to deal with like really really cool people
every single day, and I just build.
Speaker 7 (40:25):
More of a long term relationship. Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:28):
I mean we have clients that my dad's represented for
forty years. You know, it's like it's like an extended family.
I know that's like such a cliche thing to say.
Speaker 8 (40:38):
But nobody's Over time, it becomes true. Yeah, after all
that time.
Speaker 4 (40:43):
More Christmases at some of my client's house than I
have at like some of my family member's house.
Speaker 5 (40:48):
But I think it's also being able to as a manager,
you're that support system. You are the believer. You're the
one who fights for your clients, like you're able to
show up in a very special way. And I think
all of us can attest for like having good teams
behind us, and when we did, like we knew we
(41:10):
were supported and we had those voices to stand up
for us, which I think often managers are overlooked and
I don't think that they like get the credit that
they should because I think, you know, if you have
a good team behind you, it makes all the difference.
Speaker 4 (41:28):
Well, I hope my clients feel the same, and I'm
very lucky with all my they're very openly appreciative.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
So I'm I'm just very lucky.
Speaker 7 (41:43):
We'll bite your ankles.
Speaker 5 (41:47):
We are so glad that you came on and took
time away from your clients a short period of time
were still working. I know in your mind you're still going.
We just appreciate you so much. And t Bone was
such a beloved character.
Speaker 4 (42:02):
Well, I appreciate that, and it's it was definitely it
was a major part of my life and it was
something that again I only have just appreciation for.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
So thanks for having me on and this has been fun.
Speaker 5 (42:16):

you very much, and good luck with all of your
clients futures, which also helps yours as well.

I was just like, I don't know, it's so ironically as.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
Being the person like reaching out. I'm not like you.
Speaker 7 (00:52):
As pretending to be somebody else, someone else?
Speaker 1 (00:55):
What are you doing doing that?
Speaker 5 (00:58):
I used to pretend to be my own assistant, but
then I always would screw up and being like I
would then answer as myself and that I'd be.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Like, oh man, I just got to commit to the lie.
Speaker 8 (01:08):
Yeah, yeah, I'm so sure that Beverly is excited about this,
this sort of thing.
Speaker 9 (01:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
When I used to Yeah, when I used to try
to work with the brands that I really wanted.
Speaker 7 (01:20):
How big was, how many assistants were there? Was there
like Cindy who could you know? It was Dave and
Upper managed.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
I couldn't make the lie so like it was. I
used my sister in law's name because I wanted it
to still be closed.
Speaker 7 (01:36):
She did be on the phone stuff though, too right,
but that totally makes it better.
Speaker 8 (01:42):
So you could point at a bridget if someone called
you out, you'd be.
Speaker 5 (01:44):
Like, there's and she tries to law. Yeah, my very
short lived music career. She was my assistant, which so
there's like a string, but she wasn't really my assistant.
I basically just put her. Yeah, I just pretend it
was all. So should we dive into the episode because
now this has gotten awkward?
Speaker 8 (02:06):
Yeah, because for me, I feel fine.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
You always feel fun.
Speaker 7 (02:10):
Do you remember how each other? Let's do that. Let's
do the intro you're listening to catching up with the Candid.
I'm McKenzie Crossman.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
And I'm really Mitchell, and I'm David Galla, and we
have a guest. I'm Calton James, and you are the
infamous t Bone Television's t Bone Television Divisions. I mean,
we have had wrestleman, We have had so much fun
(02:42):
recalling some of those amazing episodes with dude, Like, I mean,
the think that you'd.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Play a character named t Bone.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
When I was born, the doctor apparently looked down at
me and said one day and I.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Looked up, yeah, and cries actually, because I mean the
film credits like t Bone.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
Like that's the that is I know, do you remember
how Ruthy and t Bone met each other? Because wasn't
t Bone kind of bad news bears at least at first, or.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
And he judged him for his.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Name, and I mean, you take one look at me
and you're like, there's trouble, right, trouble of coming.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, yeah, I actually do not remember.
Speaker 7 (03:35):
Wat I'm sure someone does remember.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Well, we have some to the club because most of
us all and actually I would say pretty much ninety
nine percent of our guests do not remember, like how
we all?
Speaker 7 (03:48):
I don't remember anything either.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Well, what's what's weird?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Is I actually so I never watched the episodes Originally
I couldn't watch myself. I would make me cringe that,
you know, wonder why I'm no longer an actor.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
So I actually watched some of the episodes last night.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
But I actually I think I skipped over because we
didn't meet immediately because what what, I guess where I
got to we were like already in it, or we
had already met each other. So I don't I don't
remember exactly.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 8 (04:25):
Well, when you showed up today. We I had introduced
myself because we had never worked together. You'd showed up
on the on our eleventh season, right.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
It was that it was the last season of.
Speaker 8 (04:34):
The show, and by then I was already out, so
I never got to meet t Bone, but I got
to say replacement. If there is one character on the
show that I never worked with but I definitely knew
all about, it was t Bone. If you were one
of our infamous guests, I'll take that. Take that absolutely
infamous and mentioned all the.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Time, like or did we end with Ruthie?
Speaker 8 (04:58):
Highly referenced.
Speaker 7 (05:01):
If we were like still an item when the show ended.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Zero memory, No, I get that far last night.
Speaker 7 (05:08):
Someone will remember.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
And when we get to those episodes of the rewatch,
which we are.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
Still in twenty thirty three.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
You know what it's you know, most shows don't make
it eleven seasons.
Speaker 7 (05:22):
No, it's a lot.
Speaker 8 (05:23):
Touching over the candids might not make it to eleven.
Speaker 7 (05:27):
We're trying, I mean, you know, imagine trying to watch
all of the Simpsons or something.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
Yeah, but we have a questions for you. What was
it like, you know, especially coming in on season eleven, what.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
Was it like?
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Kind of like joining our cast, Like it.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Was very welcoming cast, very welcoming cast. I was kind
of my bread and butter for the majority of my
career was just slaying guest stars. So I was very
used to coming into a close knit family and kind
of like being the outsider that's just going in and
journeyman doing their work and getting out.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, it's just still a little heist, you know. I
don't know about that.
Speaker 8 (06:10):
That's your Max mackenzie's assessment.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
But so I was very used to that, and I
do remember feeling very grateful of how welcoming the cast
and the crew and everyone was. And it's a very
very quite possibly the most laid back set to this
day that I've ever been on.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I mean, it was big chilling on that set.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
Well, it's always good to hear because like for us,
that was just the environment in which we grew up in.
So it's always still a little shocking when you hear
from other people they're like, that's not quite the norm.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
No, no, no, there's it's definitely.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Not the norm. I mean the norm is you are
an outsider, you're coming in.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
And again, I had a good career as an actor
and positive experiences. But yeah, there's definitely always a kind
of like, you know, the substitute teacher vibe on set.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
Yeah, at what point did you decide to just stop acting?
Speaker 3 (07:08):
It's kind of like a it was probably gradual, right, but.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Yeah, it's it's kind of like a long and wacky tail.
Like I I started working at A Basically, I moved
out of my home really young because I tested out
of school and I was sixteen. I went and I
did a movie with zac Efron in Georgia in Atlanta,
and so since I tested out of school, I like
drove to Atlanta on my own and lived on my own.
(07:33):
And so when it came back, I was like, I'm
I'm an adult.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Now I'm gonna remember that attitude.
Speaker 8 (07:39):
Yeah, but I hope.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
They're sitting down. I was not an adult. And my parents,
you're independent, God bless them.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
They're like okay, But my dad basically was like, you're
not going to just sit around and do nothing and
wait for auditions to come in, Like, you have to, uh,
get some kind of job. I don't care if you
make money. You just have to get a job. So
he actually sent me. It's so funny. I was actually
at a meeting at the very agency I'm about to
speak at yesterday, but with a client.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
But he sent me to an agency. I was really young.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I wasn't eighteen yet, and I went there and they
gave me the job because I'm sure I had nothing
to do with who my dad was. They gave me
the job and then they sent me downstairs to HR
and I gave him my ID and they're like.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
You can't work here.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (08:24):
And it's like, okay, we called my dad in the parking.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Look.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
I got the job and it was fired in the
same day. And so then he's like, all right, I'll
make another call and he called a casting office and
this officeparently didn't care. And I just worked there as
an unpaid intern for a while, and I was still auditioning,
and it was because I was unpaid, I could go
an audition and you know, do whatever.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
And I would.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
Just kind of work there more and more, and I
started to get really really fascinated by it and really
like just loved working and going into an office every
day and having this it was like this weird like
thing I've never experienced before because I was an actor
since I was literally in diapers, and I literally remember
like calling my agent and being like I'm out, Like
this is I'm no longer want to be an actor. Yeah,
(09:10):
and it was there's a you know, an agency to
it and all of that. And and how I how
I went from casting into management is you know, at
a certain point, casting is very very intense, very huh
like all consuming, and not that management is it, but
it's definitely more my speed. And I eventually went into
(09:34):
management and work at my dad's company.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
You cultivate like relationships as a manager, like you're you're
like helping their careers and like in support, whereas like casting,
it's like much it's much it's a much harder I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
You need to be you really need to be a
certain type. You have to have an encyclopedic memory. I
mean like I was at the Audio cl which is
like the casting awards, and I was at the bar
getting a drink and somebody like tapped me on the
shoulder and she was like, I have a self tape
of you when you were twelve years old, And I'm like, how.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
Do you know that?
Speaker 1 (10:12):
How do you remember that?
Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
They remember? And like so I have the mind for it.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
I would never I have zero memory. I would never
make it. I like I've already failed. Yeah yeah, I
don't have a shot because you're still working.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Yeah yeah, yeah, el.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
I mean we're all partners, but yeah, he's still he's
still chugging along.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
I remember you talking about working in the cast like
I thought it was a casting office. Yeah, when you
were on the show, you had already been working there.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I think that was before it was.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Either dooring or before there was I do remember you
talking about doing that.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
There was a period that after I worked at the
casting office, I then went to go work at my
dad's office maybe, And I think that's when I actually
auditioned for Seventh Heaven because I like was working the
casting office and it was absolutely uh it was too
much work.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
And I had a moment where I was like, maybe
I want to do.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Get back into acting, but I still wanted to keep
working every day. And it's actually I went to work
in my dad's office and answer as phones and I
actually went and auditioned in the exact same building of
my dad's office for Brenda.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
Oh yeah, which was.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
No, no, it was in it was in a burbank.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
Those offices. Okay, I'm just trying to remember all of
the different places that we've once had offices because there
were spelling.
Speaker 8 (11:39):
Yeah, the spelling buildings.
Speaker 7 (11:41):
Ye have to go in a lot of really interesting
buildings all over LA that you otherwise would never have
been in. Like you know that big, really tall one
off of Wilshire by the beauty store.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
What's it?
Speaker 5 (11:53):
She says, beauty store.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
We say Liberta Tarpets is by the tarpets because I'm.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
Saying that's what's funny, but I'm laughing.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
But there are like you know, there's that other place
off of Sunset with like the giant globe and it's
this weird like are there There are places where you'd
be like.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
I wonder what's inside that building?
Speaker 7 (12:10):
And then run day you get an audition and it's like.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Chairs abandoned.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
Empty rooms of folding chairs and a solitary camera not
suspicious at all.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
The buildings that's all done. Now everything is on tape. Yeah,
it's it's wild. Ever since the pandemic, it's such a sad.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
I mean, I miss those audition days where because I
actually enjoyed the audition process and I to now have
the on tape thing I hate the I won't I always.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
Like it tapes because I didn't enjoy the audition process
at all.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
I like people, I liked the interaction. I liked working
with someone and being like, oh, that was great, but
let's do it a little different, like throw something at you.
Because I loved having to be on your toes. I
didn't like. I feel like on tape everything becomes so rehearsed,
everything is so well.
Speaker 8 (13:13):
I'm in the middle between you guys. So like for me,
the like making your own tape is more autonomous. You
know you can you can make the tape and the
performance you you could send the one you want. Yeah,
so like you can get it just the way you
want it. But I also feel the same way you
do about the audition process because I really loved the
(13:36):
immediacy of like having to go into the room to
meet some people, to interface really quick and then and
then get my performance out the way I wanted it
on the spot. It has to be done the right
way at the right then and there, and then to
have that moment where you if you if you impress
them enough, or you had that moment where they wanted
(13:59):
to work with you. To have that pivot where they go, oh, well,
what if we did it like this or in the scene.
We thought it was more like and have that conversation
and so having when that went well, which was not
terribly often right like it's it's you're always kind of
shooting in the dark. But when the when the in
person audition went well, god felt great. You know what
I mean. Where you nailed it. You nailed the pivot,
(14:19):
You had the two different performances, you showed the change,
all those things that you just can't really demonstrate on
a tape. But that being said, tape are more convenient.
You know, you can send the audition that you want
that is more of of whatever your interpretation is. So
like again, there's benefits to both sides of a lot.
I grew up like you as I was an audition kid,
(14:41):
you know, like I was used to hustling auditions and
doing multiple ones a day, and you.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
Know I loved it.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
Yeah, it's sport. It was. It was like a sport.
I know what you mean by that.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
I didn't play soccer, but I my sport was the
sport of acting.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
We mentioned that, you're well, no, because last night I
was like talking about how sadly. You know, my kids
are all playing sports. My husband played a sport, and
I'm like, I didn't have a sport, and Mac was like,
your sport.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Your family is athletic.
Speaker 5 (15:13):
Oh, they are athletic.
Speaker 8 (15:14):
There.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Yeah, that's why I can't play. I can't learn how
to play tennis because my five year old's already better
than me, and I just can't accept that. I cannot.
I cannot accept that. But cold, let's get back to you,
not about my issues. There are so many. One of
our favorite episodes, too, is the tattoo episode the Tea Bone.
Speaker 7 (15:35):
I think it's everyone's favorite. So that's my favorite tattoo.
Speaker 8 (15:38):
Let's talk about the Yellow Family Room.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
I still have it.
Speaker 5 (15:46):
But like what we loved about, like your character and
like what you navigated with, Like you weren't You were on.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Dexter too, Shift?
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yes, I was.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
I love that show. I just started watching the new one.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
I haven't seen it yet. I've heard good things though.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Yeah, it's very good.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
I mean it's the same familiar voice and like Eerie,
the Dexter music is so great and recognizable.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
What was it like being on I'm shifting? What what
was it like being on ear? Because that's also like
another lot was his favorite show?
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Apparently it was.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Wow, we just found it.
Speaker 8 (16:23):
We found some old interview that where I apparently said
e Er was my favorite show when I was like, obviously,
I don't know why.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
I think I know why because it was it was
known at the time of like killing over twenty five share,
which like that doesn't exist, but it was known as
like the serious yes kind of cool good it was
like the drama kid show.
Speaker 8 (16:47):
Yeah no, and I did fancy myself a drama kid.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
Yeah you like the deep stuff, Yeah yeah, I like
the good st Yeah yeah.
Speaker 8 (16:55):
I definitely. I definitely had that moment in that interview.
Speaker 4 (16:59):
I guess, absolutely amazing, amazing experience. Noah Wiley's one of
the other than you kind folks, one of the coolest
I ever worked with. He's just fantastically cool. I mean,
everyone on that it was a really really great experience.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
But much they had probably a bunch of longer hours
because they were as efficient efficient.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Yeah, yeah, that was.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
I've never experienced anything like that in my entire life,
the efficiency of seventh Heavens.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
Because I think the most most sets are you know,
they're definitely I mean I think we got at one
point down to like six day shoots.
Speaker 8 (17:43):
Yeah, we were almost an episode a week, which is
like half hour comedy schedule, like, but we were Yeah,
we started it was eight days, and then at some
point it became seven, and then I think at the
very end it was down to six times.
Speaker 5 (17:55):
And even at eight days, I think a lot of
shows were typically took a lot longer struggling, yeah, to
keep a schedule like that, and they were thirteen fourteen,
fifteen hour days, and we were usually shot, especially season eleven,
were were talking out of school.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
May want to cut this out, but I believe there
was like a mandate of like, you guys got to
stay untill lunch.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
At one point it was it was season eleven. We
had to have one shot.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
We were allowed once, and you were like sit around
like we like.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
Hang, no, we would we would wait, yeah, and we'd
have like an hour lunch.
Speaker 7 (18:27):
Because I was still stuck in school because I didn't
test out. You you were in school theoretically, technically, I
was really just in there playing Oregon Trail.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
Well, you got dysentery school so much, my gosh, I
so happy to get out of that when that ended.
Speaker 7 (18:49):
But yeah, yeah, well at sixteen.
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Yeah, that's you got you tested out. That's amazing out,
Like you're.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
Like, I'm done, Yeah, I'm I mean to the point
that like leading up to my testing out, like I
remember my teacher because I did like a not homeschooling.
I would like go in twice a week to a
teacher like your packets, and you'd be like you gotta
like at least pretend that you don't know you're leaving
here in six months, Like you got to work.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
With me here, had you had packet? Yeah, Well, I
just knew.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I knew I don't need to children can't know.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
I knew since birth I was going to do something
in this business, and I knew that what I would
be doing would not be requiring a college degreer. Honestly,
I always knew I was going to be a manager
really always.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
Yeah, that was just always ingrained, and it was just
was acting like to kind of like understand that side
of me.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
No, Like I definitely like I went through a period
where I was passionate about acting. I would say from
like like fourteen to like sixteen, I really got into it.
I went to acting class all the time, I went
to the same acting class. I would do two of
the classes in the same class. I was just obsessed
with it and I did so I did get to
a certain period, but then I don't know, when I
(20:04):
got a little older, it just like it just I
think the whole thing. I didn't like to be on
scene in that way, if that makes sense, Like this
is a little uncomfortable for me, Like this is I'm
used to standing over there.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 4 (20:19):
Yeah, I don't know about anxiety so much. It's just
kind of like watching myself. I would just kind of
be like I would I don't know, cringe a little
and just be like that stuff that I wasn't born
for it.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
I don't like watch it.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
I think there's a difference between I've said that there's
a difference between entertainers and artists. Yeah, so like entertainers
can be those like dancing monkeys and can like at
any point in time, turn on and be there. And
then there's like the artistic side that's like they like
to do the art of it, but they don't necessarily
(20:52):
like all the recognition and all the fandom and all
the like everything.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
Plenty of actors that do tho.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
No, as I'm saying, is I'm.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Like and ones without publicists.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Yeah, but I'm saying I think also like you can
enjoy the process but then still be like, but I
don't like the other like fancy side where like all
the lights and all the cameras.
Speaker 7 (21:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Yeah, And I like being around it for sure, you know,
but I just don't like when I go and visit
my clients on set, I'm.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Like, I'm so happy that I'm tisty. Yeah, I don't
have to makeup on this is great.
Speaker 7 (21:22):
Honestly, we were always saying that, Like, I think a
lot of us agree that you feel like you do
your best work when you're doing off camera for someone else,
And it's like just being in the standing in the
shadows makes me like, huh yeah.
Speaker 8 (21:33):
Doing the work without the pressure.
Speaker 7 (21:36):
Yeah, or but you can get so much more into
it because you're not like a deer in the headlights.
But it's me Yeah, yeah, that's hard.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
Do you think that, like, also having been an actor
kind of like makes you even like a stronger manager
because you understand both sides.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
Yeah, I feel like it was like all of it
was trend, the acting, the casting, all of it was
kind of training.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
That's interesting. Actually, it gives you insight into like everything
that a manager needs to orchestrate, and you've you've worked
at all of those different parts of the process, so
now you can see it from above. And I try too.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
I know what it's like.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
And Ne did some pretty big movies as well.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
Yeah, I was very lucky. I was very I had
cute little cheeks.
Speaker 10 (22:35):
You know.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
There's also a thing I feel like when you're younger
is that you can get momentum in terms of like
they're so afraid of hiring kids because they're afraid the
kid's gonna you know, like screw the pooch. But if
you have a bunch of things on your resume, they're like, well,
these ten other people were okay with it.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
And so I feel like.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I definitely had a lot of luck in that I
started very early, and so I was lucky enough to
kind of like, well, get credits when you're not maybe
your chops aren't really there, but again you have the
cute cheeks and then that that kind of I was
very lucky in that regard.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
So I feel like a lot of it was.
Speaker 8 (23:14):
No, there's there's truth in that. Yeah, when when when
you're a kid actor you. Momentum definitely plays a part
if you're if you're lucky enough to kind of start,
you could you could feel it too. I mean I
remember in the nineties in my early career too, like
that feeling of like wow, like we're we're going you
start to feel like you're going from set to set
(23:34):
things that you know, everything kind of accelerates and that's
and and again that's just you know, I think you're right.
I think sets look at at kids is like a
partial liability, like having you know, because.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
You yeah, say you kids and animals exactly.
Speaker 8 (23:49):
Yeah, so you can mitigate that with it with a
good resume.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
Yeah yeah, well and being a part of the Jurassic parkhiys. Like,
by the way, my daughter would freak out because she's
with Rassic Park and I just took my five year
old to go see the newest one.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Yeah I haven't seen it yet.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
She was fine with it. Apparently, she just said the
Dinosaurs of Hungry, Okay, totally fine with like.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
The whole review.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
I'm just from a five year old, just like because
I was like, is it too scary and she's like, no,
just a Dinosaurgia hungry. And I was like, okay, cool,
are you what was that like?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Because that's that was another fantastic experience.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
I mean again, very lucky for that one.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
It was. It was cool. I mean they had the
whole animatronic dinosaur, which is cool.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
Because nowadays everything's onn like, oh yeah, so much you.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Don't do then?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, it was so fun.
Speaker 8 (24:46):
They hired real dinosaurs.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, and that's are.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
You talking to me about me being a dinosaur?
Speaker 7 (24:53):
Are you still into music?
Speaker 4 (24:54):
Like you were all all like dabble for fun?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
But no.
Speaker 7 (25:01):
Again, I'll remember the like the seventh seven days. You
were very into spanding my underground hip hop knowledge.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Oh yeah, important, I'm still expanding.
Speaker 7 (25:12):
He's like, here, take this snare drum, start making some beats.
Speaker 11 (25:16):
All right?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Yeah I had do you still have it? I remember
I bought the sample the snare.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
I was like, I should not have had money at that.
Speaker 7 (25:32):
You made a lot with garage band.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
I think, oh yeah, garage band and logic. Yeah, I
mean again, I'll do it like I'll do it for fun.
But I still have like creative energies in me. You
know that that uh I get out, but it's really weird.
It like comes and goes sometimes I actually just bought
a new mixer yesterday.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
But yeah, all.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
The things that you did back in the day.
Speaker 7 (25:59):
Well, I mean I'm like that a lot too. Though
things come and go, oh yes, we're there's it's always
a cycle, and some circus circles are bigger than others.
Speaker 8 (26:08):
But totally that's true, very true.
Speaker 7 (26:11):
I'm in my woodworking yeah, yeah, I'm like blumber. Yeahs
with all the tools I know it is.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Hopefully do you have fingers through this?
Speaker 5 (26:26):
I know I am a little worried about Mac with
like a saw honestly, thoughts there's yeah, I'm just scared.
I did tell her also though, to make sure that
she's filming it so at least we can like have footage.
Speaker 7 (26:38):
Wants to capture the gore. She wants to snuff film
if you lose.
Speaker 8 (26:43):
Your finger, we need the content, Mac.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
No, it's also just so I can just check in
on her, make sure that she's like has all this
proper safety equipment too. It's just that Mama baron me.
But it wouldn't be a bad eye.
Speaker 7 (27:00):
Yeah, you know, baby monitors are incredibly useful things that
are not employed enough. Really, Yeah, explain baby monitors trail cams.
I mean they're just they're great.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
I mean I think that's watching and.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Nobody thinks about it.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
They're like, oh, it's just a baby monitor there, but
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
It's also like all the ring cameras that people put around.
Speaker 7 (27:21):
Yes, yes, I'm really like just a peeping tom.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
I just watch.
Speaker 7 (27:31):
You should see my binocular collection.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
You are getting sideways, I know, but that's so it
is your job. Do you have any any memories or
anything that stands out from your time with our madness?
Speaker 4 (27:51):
I remember sleeping all the time, really, I remember always
being asleep.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
So how did that work out?
Speaker 8 (27:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (27:59):
Always we had such long breaks just because I've always
been a night out still in the night out, and
we had to because we would carpool together and we
had I had to wake up at like I mean
it literally, I remember being like, I have no life.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
I had to wake up at something insane like four
am to be able to make a six thirty call
time yep. And so I would and I'm not good.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
From from where we live.
Speaker 7 (28:24):
Yeah, some time I.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Woke up, yeah, and so I'm not good at that.
And so I would just be like constantly depleted.
Speaker 10 (28:33):
So would you guys it does get cold, would you
guys just be like, yeah, yeah, I want the twenties
to fly on the wall on those conversations in the
morning on your way to work or were you guys.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Pretty common.
Speaker 7 (28:48):
Yeah, probably noisier asleep? Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
I mean I just remember it being dark and quiet.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
I mean it's literally like pitch black ass.
Speaker 7 (28:59):
I might have fallen a sleep and then you were
driving the.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
Sun coming up on four or five. We were we
were all there for a long time.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
Wait, would you guys be done at the same time
to go home together?
Speaker 8 (29:10):
You guys probably had a lot of your scenes together
at that point.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Most of our scenes were and again before lunch, so
it was like even if one of us had to stay,
it would be like.
Speaker 7 (29:19):
Another hour, stay for lunch, then important things to do
and then.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
I never had a car. Actually that's a lie. I
did have a cardy Yeah.
Speaker 8 (29:30):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:31):
We definitely had a lot of good cars on set,
usually thanks to David because David Wild always had the
cool Did I go well.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
I you were famous in Valencia? You were like no,
you were like would be seen you and and the
PT Cruiser Like it would be like you would drive
by it.
Speaker 8 (29:55):
I'm assuming you're talking about my Prowler. I had a
Plymouth Prowler. Wait, it wasn't a PT Cruiser, was cruiser,
but they they shared. I am I.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Some PT Cruiser ready, I still have it. I still
have my yellow Prowler. Yeah, it was bright yellow PT Cruiser.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
S it's slightly cool.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
Yeah, it's so.
Speaker 7 (30:20):
Asked about.
Speaker 8 (30:21):
Plymouth existed. They made the Prowler was based on the
nineteen forties roadsters. So the front wheels come out, it's
very triangular. And then the PT Cruiser was like tril
It was like some of the design cues brought up
to like a I don't know, a minivan or a
crossover size right, so it was more of like But
(30:42):
but the one that.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
I had.
Speaker 8 (30:45):
Was the was the Prowler. It was like a little, uh,
little Plymouth sports car. But it was bright yellow, and
so when I would drive it around town, it's you know, stuck.
Speaker 5 (30:55):
Out cars were bright.
Speaker 8 (30:58):
I always had. I had a colorful ray of vehicles.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Your Hummer was also bright orange.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
That you can't get a Hummer you don't want a
quiet color.
Speaker 5 (31:09):
I had a black one.
Speaker 8 (31:12):
Not my best decision tree the.
Speaker 5 (31:15):
Hummer but mine wasn't mine, and I followed suit because
you got one.
Speaker 8 (31:18):
I thought it was cool there, Okay, but we don't
focus on those.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
Yeah, I think we're making that correct distinction.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
Well, because a hummer is a that's a vehicle like
that's that is wild and wacky, that's that's not a
vehicle form Yeah literally, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (31:39):
This is also what happens when you give like young
actors money to like buy their first cars. We make
really smart decisions.
Speaker 7 (31:45):
I'm pretty sure the first car I bought was a
Volvo Wagon.
Speaker 5 (31:48):
Wow, because were you six?
Speaker 3 (31:51):
Yeah about something like that.
Speaker 7 (31:55):
But I just wanted to say the responsible.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
Car, that's the most response car, and their history car.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
I just wanted to win a point where possible.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Yeah, that's because your mother about it and was driving it.
Speaker 7 (32:08):
Details aren't necessary.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
It was not your choice of the vehicle. Had it
been the next choice.
Speaker 7 (32:15):
I know, I know I had half a point.
Speaker 5 (32:17):
It would be like a motorcycle.
Speaker 7 (32:20):
I've never I've made one practical vehicle decision, I think
or no zero. Oh, I did the truck that was
very loud and fast, and then was like I want
small and manual stick shift.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
And then I was like, oh I want electric and
that was terrible.
Speaker 7 (32:36):
Then I was like, oh, I want military truck that
has three years and max is out at sixty five
miles an hour and as older than I am. And
then there were a few of the motorcycletorcycles. That's the one.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
I don't like that one.
Speaker 7 (32:50):
I used to commute of the motorcycle and I used
to trap my saddle to the like the passenger seat
and put my helmet on the little passenger foot kickstand.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
And just I'm not going to say you strapped the
saddle your back like like Captain America.
Speaker 7 (33:03):
No, No, I had my other stuff, got it?
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Got it?
Speaker 7 (33:06):
You can bring a lot of cans of pinto beans
and wine home in a backpack cycle.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
I haven't put that to test.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
But don't hit the brakes that hard?
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Okay? Noted? Should I be?
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Don't even so she's the derailer I'm getting.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
Yes, can you tell?
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Can you tell you guys are the straight straight man?
Speaker 7 (33:36):
We try circling back a lot.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
I have not even dare the host circle back?
Speaker 5 (33:42):
I have not even said that. I mean there should
be a game like you could take a shot shots
for how many times I have to say circle back?
But I haven't done it today. So there we go.
Circle back. Let's come back to what we're here talking about, which.
Speaker 7 (33:58):
I am medicated for eighty today.
Speaker 6 (34:01):
But it's not working. It's not working off the coffee.
It's like counteracting it. I don't know what's happening. But
I'm looking at our sheet here too. Because all the
storylines were with family. Did you remember this?
Speaker 5 (34:17):
Uh? Most of your storylines dealt with family, abandonment and
learning how to find your voice and value.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
Wow, which is remember that.
Speaker 5 (34:26):
Oftentimes we read things and we don't remember that.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
That's a great storyline.
Speaker 7 (34:31):
That's why you left home early to try and connect
with those characters.
Speaker 5 (34:40):
And it's like it's it is a challenge, I think
sometimes coming into a set that's like been around for
a long time. But like I felt like we all
kind of ended up. You became a part of the family.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Like yeah, I felt yeah, yeah, And again it was
it was a very intimate set. It was very it
wasn't that big. It wasn't in the amount of people
and in you're always in the same location, Santa Monica.
Santa Monica like literally the farthest place, like another universe
from at the time crazy.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
Yeah, no, it was.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
It was definitely like I again felt very welcome there
for sure.
Speaker 5 (35:21):
We just went back this spring and actually like saw
how they had changed. It's now a post house and
it is still cool.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Really, it's so cool.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
I would like to worry.
Speaker 8 (35:34):
Well, when we contacted the post house and we were like, hey,
well we want to we want to come by to
the facility and like we shoot a podcast. You know,
this was our old studio, they were like no, it
wasn't you have the wrong place. And we were like no, no,
how did they know this was We shot here for
a decade. This was our building and this and they
were like no, no, no, We've we've been here since
(35:56):
like twenty fifteen. And we were like, oh, we wrapped
in seven, so like maybe two or three tenants before,
you you know, was this was our building. And then
like when we finally went back there, everyone was just
like like we were like taught them a new piece
of the history of like their own place. Like they
(36:18):
had no idea that this was like our studio, like
our own little like world that we had there.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Yeah, many floors inside, so yeah, it's.
Speaker 8 (36:26):
All renovated out now it's a whole different place.
Speaker 5 (36:29):
It's no longer the face ramp.
Speaker 7 (36:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (36:33):
Do you remember the ramp before you'd go up into.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:38):
I think the train goes through a part of what
was the parking lot or something like that.
Speaker 8 (36:42):
Now there's a big Metro station there and stuff they've Yeah,
the old train tracks where we used to park is
now actually operating met like rail station like Metro.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Yeah, unbelievable.
Speaker 8 (36:53):
It's it's all. It's all different down there.
Speaker 7 (36:56):
We were right position position, Yeah, it says the person
who didn't drive ever to that.
Speaker 5 (37:03):
Yes, because driving.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Somebody was.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
We got to hit the carpool lane.
Speaker 7 (37:11):
It was it was very benefit I gave back.
Speaker 8 (37:16):
The worst thing ever when I started driving myself to
work was losing access to the carpool lane. Going from
having your parents driving you to driving yourself. That was
the big I just added a half hour to my drive.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
Yeah, I mean, especially on the four or five. Yeah,
although again we'd be wrapped so early that I actually
don't remember the drives home being that if you at
lunch then.
Speaker 7 (37:41):
A little before three you were usually okay, yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
I don't think we were ever there after three. It's wild.
Speaker 5 (37:50):
Do you ever get recognized as Tea Bone. Do people
ever like come up on the streets.
Speaker 4 (37:55):
Very very occasionally, and it's always like, you know, it's
always cool and it's uh, you know, it's great fan base.
Obviously all of them are fantastic. But no, what I
normally get is a like, do I know you from somewhere?
You know those Yeah, that's that's typically the.
Speaker 8 (38:13):
What's your response to that? We were talking about another one?
You know, do you mess with people and trying to
figure it out or do you know?
Speaker 1 (38:21):
It's I go case by case.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
It's a weird one because it's like, I don't know,
you don't want to start. Like sometimes you'll get into like, oh,
I used to be an actor, and then they'll be
like list your resume, you know, yeah, have you seen this?
Speaker 7 (38:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Dancing for them? You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (38:43):
Like no, no, and then you have to keep going.
They're like, no, I know, I didn't. I didn't watch that.
Speaker 8 (38:51):
But have you guys ever done the thing where someone's like, yeah,
I know you from somewhere and you're like, oh, yeah,
I'm you know, I'm an actor and stuff, and they're like, no,
that's it, I know you from somewhere. And you're like, oh,
now you're.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Yeah, well yeah, it's definitely it's definitely a weird one.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
Yeah, sometimes you just have to say I don't know,
I don't know. It just depends on what you're capable
of that day.
Speaker 11 (39:21):
Yeah, case, I know, it's it's it's always awkward because
you don't want to be that weird one that's like
I'm on television, like you.
Speaker 8 (39:31):
Don't, there's a there's a weird dance, like you know,
I'm an actor. Sometimes people recognize me from you have
to do the flip you kind of you try to
get that out without sounding like like you were waiting
for the question.
Speaker 5 (39:45):
Exactly exactly, but you're very successful now at managing and
loving that side of it.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Yeah, now job I was born to do for sure.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
And what's your favorite Do you want to do anything
else after that?
Speaker 3 (39:58):
Or do you want to.
Speaker 4 (40:00):
Well, I mean the thing with management is it's so
like it's not you're not an agent. It's wildly versatile,
like you can do.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Yeah, would you like to do that too?
Speaker 5 (40:10):
Sure?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Yeah, I mean there's it's the sky is the limit,
there's nothing that can't be done, which is I think
my favorite part about is every single day is different.
I get to deal with like really really cool people
every single day, and I just build.
Speaker 7 (40:25):
More of a long term relationship. Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:28):
I mean we have clients that my dad's represented for
forty years. You know, it's like it's like an extended family.
I know that's like such a cliche thing to say.
Speaker 8 (40:38):
But nobody's Over time, it becomes true. Yeah, after all
that time.
Speaker 4 (40:43):
More Christmases at some of my client's house than I
have at like some of my family member's house.
Speaker 5 (40:48):
But I think it's also being able to as a manager,
you're that support system. You are the believer. You're the
one who fights for your clients, like you're able to
show up in a very special way. And I think
all of us can attest for like having good teams
behind us, and when we did, like we knew we
(41:10):
were supported and we had those voices to stand up
for us, which I think often managers are overlooked and
I don't think that they like get the credit that
they should because I think, you know, if you have
a good team behind you, it makes all the difference.
Speaker 4 (41:28):
Well, I hope my clients feel the same, and I'm
very lucky with all my they're very openly appreciative.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
So I'm I'm just very lucky.
Speaker 7 (41:43):
We'll bite your ankles.
Speaker 5 (41:47):
We are so glad that you came on and took
time away from your clients a short period of time
were still working. I know in your mind you're still going.
We just appreciate you so much. And t Bone was
such a beloved character.
Speaker 4 (42:02):
Well, I appreciate that, and it's it was definitely it
was a major part of my life and it was
something that again I only have just appreciation for.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
So thanks for having me on and this has been fun.
Speaker 5 (42:16):

you very much, and good luck with all of your
