Speaker 3 (00:25):
Guys, we have been chopping at the bit to talk
to this man. We are sure as hell going to
get to know the real Robbie Jones. We're playing twenty
three questions with this handsome devil muscle. Wait waies, honey,

(00:46):
all right, you guys at home, you're gonna have to
deal with this flirting for a little bit. It's been
a long time since we've seen this man.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Wait what.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
Robbie, But Robbie for everyone who's playing ketchup, like we
all got to grow up together in this really magical way.
Like where are you right now? You're in Santa Clarita.
You're a family man, which is very exciting. Yes, well,
you were so good with kids, like we always knew
that was the trajectory for you.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Yeah, I've so just briefly. We moved to Santa Clarita
right before the world completely shut down. My daughter was
starting to walk and it was like, oh, it's time
to get some space. We need a yard, we need swings,
we need you know, we need the whole thing. So
we moved to Santa Clarita, started renting a home and

(01:39):
it was perfect. Everything was was like working good. And
then it was like, okay, the owner wants to sell
the place. We were like, awsome, do you want to
buy it? We bought the place and now we live here.
We're like residents. We live here. This is my house.
I wish you would.

Speaker 4 (01:56):
Yeah, problem that is now your broken dishwasher?

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yes, number four from me, and we have we're in
the coldest act. There's kids everywhere. We have child number two,
little Hendrix. He is running around here talking his face
all and my daughter is in kindergarten right now. She's

(02:22):
at school and we are just nesting.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Sandra's just happy. She's good, She's hanging at home.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Sandy is loving thanks calling her Sandra her gunment.

Speaker 5 (02:34):
Sorry my name's Sandy, all right, but no, she's she's
doing great.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
She's loving this whole mother journey and just maybe t M.
I just waned my my second child, so he's done
with Nannie.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
God, that feeling is so good when you're just like
free the leashes off as the mother and you're just
like anyone can feed this baby now.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Like.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
We are one of that reality her flowers or something.
That's a big damn deal, Robbie.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
All the time at this house. Okay, this is the
Jones residence.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
So that Robbie, you know, we have been raving about
just our personal experience with you and what a gentleman
you are and how fun you were to work with
as an actor and a co worker. And so this
is our opportunity to ask you questions from the proost
questionnaire so that the audience can actually get to know you,
because you plead a character who a lot of parts

(03:47):
of that character were very different from who you are,
maybe a little abrasive, and so you'd like to get
to know this sweetness underneath. Ladies, who wants to kick
this off? I will, I'll go do it.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
Robbie, Oh friend, what is your idea of perfect happiness?

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Wow? You just went straight for the deep philosophical You
just went for the bag.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
Could be I mean, maybe it's just like a big
Mac and a Vanila milkshake and a quiet you know, car,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
It doesn't have to be Philo, No, no. You know
what's interesting. I've been discussing this a lot with friends
and family lately, and I feel like where I'm currently
at now and my life with these beautiful healthy kids
and life and house and family, mother, father, everybody's still here,

(04:49):
everybody's healthy. I feel like I'm really living in true happiness,
I mean like ultimate happiness. And yeah, it has nothing
to do with work, has nothing to do with money,
or has nothing to do with anything. It's just like
when I wake up in the morning and my son
is like that act, can you play basketball with me?

(05:11):
I'm like, yes, sir, deils here and I'm like, this
is really where it's at. Like what else in the
world is. There's nothing more important, nothing that makes me
happier than just being here with my family and kids.
And I just find myself really like being at home

(05:33):
a lot. Even when I was working, I was like, man,
can you guys give me on the first light back
home because I don't want to miss anything.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
So yeah, that's just a big answer with COVID and
then our strike, like pretty much back to back. Do
you feel like it really changed your view about what
accomplishment and like what fulfillment is. It did for me,
That's why I ask.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
It really put things in perspective for me, like if
that makes sense. It was like, for the longest time,
you spend like the majority of your energy kind of
chasing this thing, this career, this this this, this whole
kind of actor thing. And as much as I love
and I'm so fulfilled by my job, when it's shut

(06:19):
down and the world shut down and it's just you
and just your wife, just your daughter at the time,
it's like you look around and go, man, nothing else
is really that important, Like nothing else and that that
it was kind of a moment for me. I'm sure

(06:40):
you guys are all actors. You have these same feelings
where it's like, man, I want to get back to work. Man,
I want to get back to work. Man, I'm miss working.
But I was I was kind of praying for this,
like like when is this breakthrough thing going to happen?
And I and when are this? When is this gonna
When is this gonna happen? And when is this gonna happen,
and I can't at this revilization. Just one day I

(07:02):
was like, man, God has already blessed me with with
all of that. Everything I've been praying for is already here.
So it's like so cool to just be living in that.
And that perspective shift from me happened, like you said,
kind of during the pandemic and I was like wow, wow,
like look at us look beautiful.

Speaker 6 (07:22):
Yeah that's great.

Speaker 7 (07:25):
Okay, Well if if the opportunity to reflect like that really,
you know, allowed for a perspective shift. And I'm very
interested to hear your answer to question too, because it
is what is your greatest fear? That It was like,

(07:49):
you know, tmmo over here, just want to get into
all your feelings.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
The perspective shifting. I love the set up. That was great.
H My greatest fear, I think has developed since I
have had children, and I think I try not to
have fear of anything, but if I'm being honest and
being transparent, my biggest fear is not being the dad

(08:17):
that I want to be for my kids, you know
what I mean. And to say like, oh, I have
a fear of not being a good dad like that,
that's kind of too general, So I'll just say, like
I want to be. My fear is not being the
dad that both of my kids need me to be,
as like they both need to be parented a specific way,

(08:39):
and I just am like, man, am I doing it right?
Am I getting this right? So that's kind of like
a that's what keeps me just like every day, like, Okay,
I got to stay on top of this, stay on
top of that, be here for that, be here for that,
you know, pour into them in these different ways so
I can kind of like put that fear at bay.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
You know, weird raising little girls in this generation because
all the stuff that we were told, like go kiss
your uncle, go like hug up the stranger. Now we're
just raising like monsters. But we're happy about it. We're like,
you don't touch anybody you don't want to touch, and
also say no whenever you want. It's just a totally

(09:21):
different thing now completely we're making it up as we
go along.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Robbie, I'm glad you said that, yeah, because I feel
like I have some amazing parents, so I have a
lot to kind of gleeve from and pull from them,
and I pick their brains all the time. But like
it is so different from when they were raising us,
so only so much can apply. And like you said,
I got a little five year old girl. Same, it's

(09:45):
five handfuls. Forget me. What is a handful in all
the good ways, but then all the ways that are
challenging too.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
So well, is she you? Because my five year old
is my husband. She is absolutely half No, no.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
No, she's your way, her own thing.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
That means she's probably you. That means you don't want
to admit.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
I got my parents here, and I asked them all
the time, like are these was I like? This? Was?
It was? Was I like her? Was she like me?
Or are they like me? They're like, uh, funny, yeah,
good for her.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
That means you're doing it right right.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Here's the individuality. Okay, okay.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
Question number three, my friend, if you could be the
best in the world at literally anything, cooking, spearfishing, whatever,
best in the world, what would it be.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
It's a great question. Man. You got on the fence
because my passions and my loves basketball and acting.

Speaker 8 (10:57):
And I always was like, ooh, I want to be
so good at best. No, and then I'm like, oh,
I want to be the best actor in the world.
But I see what happens to all the best actors.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yet at the same time, I feel like it's about
who you are. So I'm going to pick I want
to be the best father. Did you see what I
did right there? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (11:26):
You did a mad and switch.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Also it this way, okay, have to take out Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
I mean those are two professions that can sometimes get
in the way of being a good parent. I mean
we've all kind of experienced the guilt of having to
leave our kids and you know, just being distracted. There's
a there's a lot that can go wrong in either industry,
whether it's sports or the entertainment industry, and so prioritizing
your kid that's a big deal.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
It is.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
What is that not to This is an answer that
could go on forever, But I'm like, if you could
truncate it into a few things that you think of
when you think of the best father in the world,
just practically, what would that actually look like.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
Well, for me, it's about being intentional and being present
and listening a lot, and I think personalizing your mode
of fatherhood to each individual child and not just being like,
oh this is how I am, so this is how

(12:34):
you get me child? Number one and child number two.
Like child number one might have completely different set of
needs than child number two. I think being an amazing
father is being the father that child number one and
child number two both need individually and making sure that
that happens in real time. You know what I mean.

(12:56):
This one wants to read and talk all the time.
This one wants the place, sports and be outside all
the time. So how do I find a way to
be outside and be inside reading? You know what I mean?
It's like, Oh, it's a balance. That's why it's great
to have, you know, my wife or a partner or
whatever that you're raising a child with, so you guys
can kind of fill in the blanks.

Speaker 4 (13:22):
You are someone who I think of a lot as
in the moment. It's one of the things that makes
you a really enjoyable actor to watch. You're so present,
You're so immediately reactive and thank you to what's happening
in the moment. So, okay, here's the question number four.
You're in your home, you're in the moment, it's time
for bed or it's time for waking up. What is

(13:43):
the one thing that is next to your bed that
is this weirdest item that you have. What's the weirdest
item you keep next to your bed? Ah boy, well,
well yeah, I didn't see that one coming.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
I didn't see that will come at all.

Speaker 7 (14:01):
Nobody ever does.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
Robbie man, you know what's weird that's next to my bed?
I probably should clean up. You guys ain't going this
is you won't see it. Give it our contact lenses, right, okay?
And our glasses at night when I'm super lazy, I

(14:23):
have disposable contact lenses. I just throw them off the
side of the bed like I'm about to go to sleep,
and I just and there's literally a nasty little kind
of a machine.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
Sculpture like a contact lens graveyard.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
It's just a nasty little pile of contact. That's such
a good way to put it, a graveyard, discarded misfit contact.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
You've just made some people out there feel so much
better about their own habit of doing the exact same thing.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
You can't be It's so true, and I'm I've admitted
that to you ladies. Thank you.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
Do your kids play with them in their mouth? Oh
my god, My kids play with fake eyelashes, They play
with discarded contacts. Kids love grown up trash they do.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Right, it's weird. I'm like, no, dad has room, please
mama room, Stay out of that. It's not baby proofed
in here, please stay out.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Oh that's hilarious, Robbie.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
It's the truth. It's weird, but it's the truth. I
like it.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
It does, yeh. Because it's so specific.

Speaker 7 (15:35):
It's so specific and honest. I find it interesting.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
I'm talking to soul. I can't believe it. It's been years.

Speaker 7 (15:48):
I missed you.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
I missed you too. See how I'm looking into the camera.
I'm not even looking at the zoom little square.

Speaker 7 (15:54):
I know, so we can make eye contacts.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yes, look at that contact. Though it's a little wide.

Speaker 3 (16:01):
It's close.

Speaker 7 (16:02):
It's as close as we get on these.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
Yes, it's real. Okay, back to everything.

Speaker 7 (16:10):
Okay, Okay, we're shifting to question five. Which living person
do you most admire?

Speaker 1 (16:16):
Okay, which living person do I most admire? I'll probably
say my mother. I'll probably say my mother. She's one
of the most fascinating people I've ever met, and I've
known her my whole life. She gave birth to me. Yeah,
as I feel like as I've gotten older, and like

(16:37):
I said, as I've had a family and all this
good stuff. I've gotten to know her as an adult
man as opposed to just being her son. Yeah, and
that discovery of who this woman was as she was
raising me, and the things that were going on in
her life and finding out things that I was too
young to handle, you know, at a certain point in time,
and you know, the things that she's gone through since

(16:59):
she was a child. I held that, you know, as
a kid, you're not equipped to handle some types of
traumas and things that happened to But my mom is
a very very very strong woman. And she's so cool.
She's the coolest cool man. Y'all would love my mama.

Speaker 3 (17:15):
Yeah, is so cool.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
She runs around with the kids, be tackling them, playing around.
I mean, she's she's so happy to have these little grandkids. Anyways,
I love my mama and I admire her the most.
And I'm trying to truncate.

Speaker 3 (17:30):
Okay, don't know as a boy, mom like keep going,
I was.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
I'm a daddy's boy for sure. I mean my dad,
oh big time. He coached me in high school. I
grew up with my daddy's best dad in the whole world.
I come from really good parents.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
My dudies, But yeah, you could tell though, like because
you're so you're so comfortable in your own skin and
you go out of your way to make everybody else
feel good, and that's usually indicative of you coming from
a place of security and support.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
Thank you for saying that. I'm sure they will be
happy to he said that.

Speaker 7 (18:04):
They did it.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
They did it, They raised a winner, made him. Do
they feel that way? Do they just kind of walk
around like we did that.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
I don't want to speak for them. They tell me
they're proud of me and they love me, because I
think they're supposed to. But I hope they believe it
and they mean it. I think they do. But I
think I think they love their son and their grandkids
and all that. I'm sure of it. So sweet.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
Okay, Well, now that we're living the dream here, question
number living a dream? Question number six is what is
your greatest extravagance? Where does Robbie Jones get fancy on me?

Speaker 1 (18:47):
You are ready for this? Let me think of something now, because.

little color in there. I'm seeing the queens now, the
drama queen. I can't come in here playing next.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Nope, okay, I gotta have a little something fancy. A

me immediately. Food, Like I'm I'm a I'm like, I
wouldn't call myself a foodie, but I'm borderline kind of

(19:52):

Speaker 4 (23:30):
Their life and it's like my place I'm in my

because you're in perfect happiness right now.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
I'm depressed. Oh oh no, I'm really going through it. Guys.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
It's this I think I think we replaced that one
with the last.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
Yeah. Sure, once you got me talking about sweep potato
pie a peace you already know my state of mind.
Come on now, hungry I love that that part.

Speaker 3 (23:58):

breakfast this morning, and I'm talking about sweet potato pie

Yeah, you need to get an instacart order of ingredients
to your house asap.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Actually speaking, yes, what.

Speaker 7 (24:24):
Do you most value in your friends.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
That's a great one. I've come. I've come at a
crossroads with that. I feel like several times over the
past few years, I feel like consistency m hmm is
like huge for me. Everybody doesn't appreciate that, but like

(24:48):
I try to be that, and I appreciate that. Like
I don't like the wishy, washy, flaky kind of friends,
you know what I mean. Like you can be my associate,
you can be some that I you know, I like
we cool, but like I like, I appreciate in a
friend somebody who's just consistent, Like you don't let a

(25:10):
long time go by between us just checking on each
other or just say how you doing? Okay?

Speaker 4 (25:16):
It's so hard in this industry. I mean, do you
find that to be Do you find it hard to
even do that yourself? As an actor and someone who's
traveling a lot, and you know, you're so present and
in the moment with where you are.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
No, And that's why I feel I'm like, that's why,
because I've been you all have been so busy to
where you can't you don't even know up from down.
You got lines, you got you've got to push call
time and I mean all kinds of crazy stuff. They're
forcing calls and this and that, and I've worked fourteen
hours and then I got to turn around to work seventeen.

(25:48):
It's just like crazy. But the people that are important
to me, Hey, how you doing today? Just want to
say what's up? Or like responding, just what the because
texting makes things so much is easier. Sometimes you can't
always call because your attention is spread everywhere. But just
a simple reach out, a simple just responded. Like I'm

(26:12):
learning that that's not a real thing anymore. Just people
don't respond, They don't respond like they use to.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
We're in this new season in our lives, you know,
like we all met when we were in that frantic,
like hustle phase of young adulthood. Do you find that
the majority of your friends are like your lifelong childhood friends,
like people that have known you forever, or have you
found your people in adulthood.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
It's a mixture of both. I have I have like
my closest friends are people that I've known my entire life,
or like close family. It's my best friend, my best man,
he lives. He moved out here too, with him and
his wife and two kids.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
They do nice.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
It's crazy. We've known each other since we were born.
He's one day older than me, and I've known in
my whole life. We used to be cousins by marriage,
and it's now we're just best friends. We've been best friends.
I'm the best man and his best man in mind. Anyways,
he moved out here, so we're right in the street
from each other. I'm the godfather of his kids. He's
the godfather, you know how it ghost. And then my

(27:21):
one of my other closest friends is cousin. And then
I have a great circle of friends of just people
that I've met since I've been in LA and a
couple of friends from back home and Sacramentos, and then
people from college. Some of my best friends are like
some of my teammates from college. So I have a
kind of like a sort of like a medium sized

(27:41):
group of people that I'm like cool with, and then
there's kind of like a smaller group that I'm like
really really tight with. How about you, guys, I know
you're asking me questions. How do you guys do the
whole friends thing? I need to know because you guys
are busy podcasting, acting, raising kids, being wonderful. How do
y'all do it?

Speaker 4 (28:02):
It is hard, and especially I think I can't speak
for anybody else, but for me growing up in this
business where you're it's all transient all the time, and
part of being an actor is being is, as we said,
being so present in the moment that you're in, and
you want to bond with the people that you're working with,
so you get to know them well. So there's a
rapport on set, and there's an ease in communication when

(28:22):
you're actually the cameras rolling or the curtain goes up
or whatever it is, so you immerse yourself. I immerse
myself so much into those relationships that it can be
hard to I'm it's hard for me not to like
out of sight, out of mind. I compartmentalize so much
into the space that I'm in that it does take

(28:45):
effort for me to What it really takes is getting quiet,
which I don't do as much of as I should
and would like to, because when I get quiet and
shut everything else out, then all the people that are
in mind heart kind of come up. It's like, oh,
I want to reach out of this person's right, this person,
their mom. I have to find out how they're doing,
and I want to check on this person's kid and

(29:07):
like what's happening with that relationship with that person. And
it's just, uh, it's just a matter of me being
self disciplined enough to get quiet and do that. But
I love that it's a it's a natural place that
you are in. It seems like all the time, I
think that's so great. I don't I don't know what
about you girls.

Speaker 6 (29:25):
How you guys here?

Speaker 1 (29:26):
Yeah, ladies. I'm curious.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
I've with the same kids that I've known my whole life,
Like I went to school with the same kids, preschool
all the way, you know, through graduation, and then we've
all stayed super close so much so that like my
grown up friends know who those kids are. Like we
were just in Willing Did this past weekend and I
was doing a book event and a boy that I

(29:49):
used to date senior year in high school was there.
He just like came to be supportive and awesome, and
I freaked out. I was so happy to see this
person hadn't forever come fly into the house, and I'm like,
I just wanted to do it. And Sophia knew exactly
who I was talking about because she's I mean, it's

(30:09):
blew my mind. And so for me, that's the kind
of thing that I'm trying to replicate with my kids
because I know now as an adult how rare that is.
And I'm like, oh, if I can give them that
like foundation of friendship and these lifelong kid relationships, it'll
help them be a good friend as a grown up
because you just have that shorthand you know, I don't

(30:33):
actually have to talk to everybody because we just like
know each other so well that we see each other
do shots and everything's cool.

Speaker 7 (30:39):
I also think, you know, I find it really a mixture.
Like you were saying, Robbie, you know, I think that
that transient nature of this job that you were talking
about joy is.

Speaker 6 (30:54):
Just true for all of us.

Speaker 7 (30:56):
And it's interesting. I was having this conversation because we
were all in Wilmington this weekend, and you know, everybody
was working on different days, and so on Saturday, because
I knew i'd see Stephen on Sunday, but I you know,
I guess you guys were with James on Friday, and
so we all went to Tower seven and like got our
favorite you know, right Field Beach Tacos and a bunch

(31:18):
of people from our crew came and met us, like
Jane and Aaron, and you know, a bunch of friends
from town, my friend Mary and Kelly, like the folks
who I lived with in Wilmington, and you know, they're
the kind of people in my life who whether I
talk to them twice a year or twice a week,
like like you were saying, Hell, you're just close, because
you've been close.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Forever, and yeah.

Speaker 7 (31:41):
I think one of the things I struggle with and
that I've had to just accept as a as a
source of discomfort in my life is that when I
am present with the people around me, I will always
be absent from the people who aren't there but who
I love. So if I'm focusing you know, and catching
up with my friends in la who I didn't see

(32:02):
for eight months while I was working in Toronto, I'm
not talking to everybody from Toronto or Wilmington. But when
I'm in Toronto or Wilmington, I'm back with those people.
And it's like I've had to figure out this sort
of balance of the blessing and the curse of being
present and being so lucky that I've lived in so
many places that I have so many disparate groups of friends,

(32:22):
and I think in this stage in my life where
I'm just finally fucking done being a people pleaser, I've
also gotten really clear about who's good for me and
who deserves me being good for them, And like, there's
four of us from junior high and high school that
are tight, and we got to a point where we

(32:43):
were like a bunch of those girls we grew up with,
we're fucking bullies and we don't need to try to
be nice to them because we're nice girls. Like my
girlfriend Janny said that she was like, nice girls don't
have to be nice to mean people, and I was like, oh,
I put them on a bumper sticker, Like I love
that idea, And who tell your daughter, Like it is

(33:03):
okay to be like I respect you, but you're not
for me. It's okay to get to a point where, like,
when there are morals and boundaries that matter to you
and they don't matter to other people, to be like cool,
care about you, wish you well. Don't have time because
I don't have time for everyone I love who I
trust with, like my future and the future of people

(33:26):
I care about, And that's I don't know.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
It's been an.

Speaker 7 (33:28):
Interesting thing to like to realize I love more people
than I have time for. And also if I don't
have time for all those people, I certainly don't have
time for people who just like I don't wait anymore.
And I don't know if that's turning forty or what,
but it feels so nice to be.

Speaker 3 (33:44):
Like I'm good. I love it. I'm like I'm good.

Speaker 7 (33:47):
And then what if I talk to you all the time,
or you know, I haven't spoken to you in a while,
and we're hugging each other, We're hugging ourselves to hug
each other on so because we love each other and
we're always going to love each other. And I, I
don't know, I cherish the sort of discernment and the
the trust in the in the friendships that it's given

(34:09):
me to be like, these are the people who you know,
I'll just like, I'll show up for at the drop
of a hat forever. Where are we going?

Speaker 1 (34:16):
What do we do?

Speaker 7 (34:18):
And I like that.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
I love that. I love hearing you guys a really
long answer. I think it's fantastic. I'm here to listen
and learn because I'm I'm trying to figure all that
out myself. I like to think I'm a certain way
and I like to be a certain way, and I
try not to put too many expectations like on these friends.
Like I said, I appreciate consistency, But at the same time,

(34:40):
you guys each have a perspective that that makes me
put all that into a different kind of viewpoint, because
I know I've been victim to taking things personally when
I'm like, okay, I can be I can respond matter
how you know I mean, And then I don't think,

(35:02):
like what did they have to do this morning? What's
their weaknd or like why are they going through this month?
That might you know what I mean. So I'm constantly
I'm constantly trying to do better at that even though
people I love, I have to have grace for just life. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
Well, it just means your relationships, you prioritize the people
who prioritize you, and that's the right thing to do,
you know, Like that's a relationship, whether it's a marriage
or a friendship. You prioritize the people who prioritize you,
and then you're in a healthy space together. So let's
flip that on its head with our next question. Robbie
Jones on what occasion do you lie to people?

Speaker 1 (35:51):
See, that's a tricky question because this is going to
sound so self righteous and so years. But like, I
like pride myself on trying to be honest, even to
a fault, like even if I was gonna hurt somebody's feelings. Yeah, So,
like I think the only time where I would maybe
like fowl a punch or hold you know, yeah, just

(36:15):
kind of like I like to. I've been known to
just like withhold information.

Speaker 3 (36:21):
All right, it's not it's lined by omission that part.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
I've done that. I've done that. But I've never been
the type of person where I could just create this
whole alternate scenario to replace the one that actually happened
to save myself some embarrassment or discomfort or whatever. So
if I were to omit, it would probably be something

(36:52):
I don't maybe something to like to protect protect somebody
that I care about, but it would even but would
have to be something so weirdly specific I can't. I
don't know, like I don't even like telling my kids
about the Easter bunny or like.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Oh, I know, right, I don't even like.

Speaker 1 (37:14):
I don't even like lying to my kids. I'd rather
know it's just fun and we're having a good time
with no pretend this so you can have a real
like Santa Claus isn't real, guys, you know what.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
I mean, Like eighth grade and he still is on
the Santa Train. I will let him believe that forever.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Right, I let it rock, I let my okay, okay.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
Yeah, if they ask you out right, and I'll just
be like, I'll omit, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
So I'll answer a different question that part. I'll do
that when it comes to like my kids or something
like that, I'll just kind of like, huh.

Speaker 3 (37:48):
It's not always the right time to talk about everything.

Speaker 1 (37:51):
Yeah, so that's the only time I can really think
about it. Most of the time. I'm gonna bush it
if you ask me you really want to know, Yeah, yeah,
And I think that's what people appreciated me because they
know I'm gonna shoot from the hip if you really
want to know. I'm not the type of person that
forces my opinion or forces my belief or forces my
like I'm not going to lead with just brutal honesty,

(38:13):
because that's right.

Speaker 3 (38:15):
It's unkind.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
It's unkind. It's unnecessary. Yeah, I think it's very unnecessary,
especially if you care about somebody. But if somebody is like, yo,
how do you really feel about this? What do you
really think about this? And I'll be like, yeah, do
you really want to know what I think about this?
I always try to get people to disclaim it, like
you really want to you really want to know what
I think? Sure, you don't have to want to know,
friend of mine or person who's asking, but if you

(38:37):
want to know, I'll give you my honest thoughts.

Speaker 6 (38:39):
I do love that, So I like that.

Speaker 3 (38:42):
Okay, what is one thing that you'll never do again?

Speaker 1 (38:47):
Whooh h There are lots of things I'll never do again.
The first thing that comes to me is going to
be so weird and trivial. But there's this When I
was living in Vancouver, there's this mountain range and it's
called There's It's like a hike of sorts, but I

(39:10):
feel like it is it is evil. Yeah, and a
couple of my castmates wanted to go and do this
thing called the Grouse Grind. It's famous, Like, oh yeah,
it's a hike and we're gonna just it's gonna be exhilarating.
And like, oh yeah, let's do it. So they convinced

(39:30):
me to go. And I'm pretty athletic. I like to
think I'm you know, I'm equipped.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (39:36):
I did that thing, and as soon as I got
to the top, I was like never, never, never ever.
I was like I thought I was done. About seven
to eight times during the whole thing, I saw the
sign or like one eighth of the way. I was like, what,

(39:59):
So that's the first thing that comes to mind. That's
very trivial.

Speaker 7 (40:02):
I like to know what the first thing is that
comes to minds that's okay, So what what do we
get for our eleventh question, which is what is the
strangest purchase you've made or almost made? Strangest?

Speaker 1 (40:20):
Mm hmmm, that's a good one. I'd like to think
I'm not a person who buys weird stuff.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
It might be normal for you.

Speaker 7 (40:29):
You're on the zoom with three women who buy a
bunch of weird shops.

Speaker 3 (40:33):
You're safe. Here, m a lot of taxidermy in this house.
Can you see my wallpaper?

Speaker 1 (40:42):
Come on?

Speaker 3 (40:43):
Yeah, you're a homeowner. Now, what's the weirdest thing you've
purchased for your home?

Speaker 1 (40:49):
Geez? This is a great, great, question. I'm so stuffed, ladies.
Can we come back to it?

Speaker 3 (40:54):
You know what, maybe will buy you the strangest thing,
Like we're going to get you a little like ceremonial
earn to put all your contacts in.

Speaker 5 (41:03):
And earn you just keep it open at the bottom
of your contacts in.

Speaker 1 (41:08):
I'm stuffed. We can we can circle back.

Speaker 3 (41:18):
So now we're going to ask you a real highbrow question.
Who are your favorite writers? Songwriters, novelists, scriptwriters, whatever you want?

Speaker 1 (41:30):
Ever wrote the song? Are you familiar with the song
called so Beautiful by music soul Child?

Speaker 3 (41:43):
Mm hmmm, let's google this music soul Child. Hold on, now,
this is what we invented iPhones for.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
S i Q music. Yeah, it was a big song
and it does something to me, and it just it.
It does all the things. And there's amazing writers of books,

(42:16):
are amazing writers of all kinds of stuff. But like,
whoever wrote that freaking song?

Speaker 3 (42:21):
Mm hmm, that's it.

Speaker 1 (42:22):
I found it. There you are, that's it.

Speaker 3 (42:25):
It's just songwriters Lee Houston or late And then to
leave Johnson who is that? That's his real name? That's
music so Trial's real name.

Speaker 1 (42:35):
I think.

Speaker 3 (42:37):
Yeah, listen, I found it I'm about to jam. Is
this a slow jam?

Speaker 1 (42:40):
It's a it's a mid temple love jail. It'll get you,
it'll take you to where you want to be.

Speaker 7 (42:50):
I just muted myself on the zoom so I could
listen to it.

Speaker 1 (42:52):
It's a vibe. Okay, come on now.

Speaker 6 (42:55):
Yes.

Speaker 7 (42:55):
Also, I haven't listened to him in years. What a
great flashback? My god?

Speaker 1 (43:01):
Right right? Yeah, So that's okay, there you go.

Speaker 3 (43:05):
All right, Robbie. What's your greatest regret?

Speaker 1 (43:10):
I don't I don't know if I had any control
over this, but I feel like I regret not starting
to play basketball soon.

Speaker 7 (43:22):
How were you?

Speaker 1 (43:23):
Because I didn't really. I started playing basketball kind of late.
I tried it when I was a little kid. My
dad was a coach and he was never pushing the
sport on me, never pushed it on me, and I
wanted to play. And when I started out, I don't know,
maybe I was like four or five and it's just
a bunch of kids running around with a basketball. And

(43:44):
then they were co ed teams, so the rule was
you have to pass it to the girl before you shoot.
So as a four year old or five year old,
I was like, I don't want to pass it, I shoot,
you know what I mean. So I was like, I
don't like basketball, So I was off basketball. Played soccer
from like age six, so I was like fifteen, that's interesting,

(44:04):
and I didn't really start playing basketball, so I was
like a teenager. Wow. Yeah, and my dad. The reason
why I was able to increase my skills faster is
because my dad was a high school coach. So once
I decided to play basketball, I was like in seventh
or sixth grade, and then he just would bring me
to practice with me. So I practiced with him and

(44:25):
his high school players. At like sixth grade. I was
just getting beat up and kicked around, and he just
let it happen. And I had to get better faster.
But I feel like if I had a start to
playing basketball earlier, I would have been better and I
might have been able to touch that ultimate dream, my
first dream of hitting the NBA. I mean, I played
professionally overseas for like six years, but I never touched

(44:46):
the NBA where I wanted to get. So that was like,
that's kind of like a back of mind, Like, man,
what if I had to start it earlier, you know
what I mean?

Speaker 3 (44:56):
Yeah, But how awesome that he didn't force it on you.
It might changed how much you love it, Like you're
able to love it now because it wasn't, you know,
pushed on you.

Speaker 1 (45:07):
Yeah, I fell in love with it by myself. And
he was like, I'm never gonna I'm not waking you
up to go to the gym. I will help you
be the best player you want to be, but I'm not.
I'm not pushing you to do this stuff. Okay, there
can we wake up at six of the morning to
go all right, I'll set there, let's go do it.

(45:30):
I love it.

Speaker 7 (45:33):
Okay, slightly different twist, but also could be something silly.
What is something that you really dislike?

Speaker 1 (45:43):
Well, first thing that comes to minus onions.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
All kinds red, white, yellow, shallots.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
Green, raw onions of any type. Don't give me no
onions on a burgers unless it's carbon But I can't
taste the onion. I told you am borderline kind of
a food.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
No, He's like, do the extra step. I am Betty's son.
Take the extra step, Caramel. I hate that you, Robbie.

Speaker 4 (46:14):
When I order a cob salad and somebody decides to
sprinkle raw red onions all over the top, of it
like that that is an ingredient, that is not a seasoning.

Speaker 1 (46:23):
This is myn with the food industry told you to
sprinkle green onions on top of everything. It's like, I'm sorry,
you touched a nerve raw onions.

Speaker 3 (46:39):
Of every question we've asked you, that was the fastest answer.

Speaker 1 (46:44):
I was, like, you've been in a restaurant. You order
something on the menu that doesn't have onions in the
ingredients at all, and you're like, this is going to
be bomb. They bring it out and sit it to you,
sit it on your your your face, and it has
green onions just caked all over the top of this thing.

Speaker 3 (47:04):
That a little garnish for you. Okay, I have question
number fifteen, and this is this is warm and fuzzy.
Who are What is the greatest love of your life?

Speaker 1 (47:18):
I'm trying. I'm trying to encapsulate it all because I
think being a father has been the greatest love of
my life, and I've been able to express the greatest
amount of love in my life and being a husband
and all of that. So I don't want to leave

(47:39):
any I feel like I tell my wife all the
time and when we're texting, and I just kind of
like send a world like the world emoji, and I'm like,
you're my world, or you guys are my world. So
I feel like just being a father and a husband
has been the greatest love of my life. And I

(48:02):
feel like I'm able to express the greatest love, the
greatest amount of love from my life. So yeah, don't
y'all make me cry on this podcast. Listen, don't y'all
do it?

Speaker 3 (48:16):
We do all the feelings.

Speaker 1 (48:17):
Here, I got all those covering up. I'm not sure. Okay,
don't you make me cry on this car.

Speaker 3 (48:22):
He's going to have to tap his eyes with that scar. No,
but it's so nice, you know, like Carson mccullors, the
author said, they are the we of me, you know,
like when you find the weave me, that kind of
unit that feels so whole. That's a beautiful feeling. That's
what people spend their whole life looking for. You know,

(48:45):
you found a baby.

Speaker 4 (48:46):
Yes, well you answered this already because it was the
first one. You said you were living in perfect your
perfect happiness right now. So the question is when and
where were you hat But I guess my adjustment to
this question for you would be other than now. When

(49:07):
and where were you happiest man?

Speaker 1 (49:13):
There was some really crazy having moments. I'm going, you
know what, I'm going to personalize this for you babes.
The first day on set. M hm, this this wonderful
lady right here down here in the corner of my screen.

(49:34):
I don't know which one you're pointing to you your face?

Speaker 3 (49:38):
Joy.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
Oh, my first day, I said Paul Johansson, it's directing.
Joy was in the classroom, I believe, opposite me and
I had This was my first time ever being on
TV over what what this is my first acting job.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
Oh my god, I'd.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Done commercials, I'd done I did. I did commercials for
like three years and this was my first job as
an actor. First day on set, first time being directed
by a director, first time people putting touch ups and
what is the whole everything? My first day and I've

(50:28):
been you know, studying it, grinding it, just fell in
love with acting and just and I was like, this
is so amazing, Like this is so cool. And then
the top of it all off, Joy was so cool.

(50:49):
She was so cool. And the craziest thing about it
is I was watching because I'm a sponge. I'm trying
to soak it all up. I've never been here for
I don't even know all this. Yeah, and I'm like,
she's full on reading a novel in between takes. Joey

(51:10):
would have a book and I'm here running lines in
my head. She's reading a book and they're like, okay,
first team, and she's like it goes right there and
just starts delivering everything at just perfect amazing, just joy,
you know her, just just joy. And I'm like, this

(51:31):
is so cool.

Speaker 3 (51:35):
You just blew our minds.

Speaker 1 (51:36):
I'm trying to tell you. We would just talk and
chop it up and Enjoy was just like she was
just always so nice and warm and answer any questions
I had. Paul was so cool. I was like, man,
what a first gig? Like you know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (51:54):
I love that, Glad I got to be a part
of that. And Hillary's right, you did blow our minds.
We all were like we couldn't leave. This was your
first gig and.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
I'm just learning that now. It is just blowing my
mind in this moment. There's an idea of working way
that what I have watched on the show is your
first like acting gig. There's just no way.

Speaker 1 (52:14):
Yeah, Rob Lobby yeah, yeah, I sat down with with
with our with our with our epse name. We shall
not mention Baltimore anyways, I want you didn't.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
Ask, Robbie.

Speaker 7 (52:31):
But the point is, really and it's so special. I'm
sure so many people at home are having the you know,
same reaction you just said, Hill, like you are such
an undeniable talent. And you know, we've talked so much
about how we all felt so robbed, and we assume
that you know, the creative team behind the show, we

(52:53):
shan't mention really regretted, you know, their decision about the
timeline of your character, because it all happened to me too,
So that that's the that's the least specific I can
be about that.

Speaker 3 (53:06):
But we talk about it a lot, a lot.

Speaker 7 (53:09):
A lot when when you know we're we're doing the
other job we have to do. But god, yeah, you're
I mean your talent, which is ironic because the literal
next question is about talent. Question seventeen is which talent? Well, no,
I'm just like it is actually bizarre, but question seventeen

(53:30):
is literally which talent would you most like to have?

Speaker 3 (53:34):
Outside of the one we know you could act? You're
so talented, like what's the thing that you can't quite
do so great that you want?

Speaker 1 (53:45):
I wish I could play the.

Speaker 3 (53:46):
Piano, me too, That's my answer.

Speaker 1 (53:51):
I'm a drummer. I play music my whole life. I
play the drums, and I've always wanted to play the piano.
I try. I could pick it up, play a few
little things here and there, but like, I've always just
wanted to like be that guy who's like, oh piano,
Oh no, let me just let me try for a

(54:13):
second and then just let me just wait. What's almost
that that you like? You know what I mean, just
like just sit out and just oh, yeah, this is
thank you. I've always wanted to be that guy. And
you know that's that's that's the answer I'll give you.

(54:35):
But that that's true. It's very true.

Speaker 6 (54:38):
M okay good.

Speaker 1 (54:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (54:40):
I love that. I could see you being like Lionel
Richie right, just like energy at a party. That's when
I see you play. Yeah, Hello, that's who you're going
to grow into you're looking for. That's what I want.

(55:01):
That's what I want.

Speaker 1 (55:04):
For me. Thank you. Impersonation.

Speaker 3 (55:11):
Well, if you could change one thing about yourself, what
would it be?

Speaker 1 (55:14):
I would change for my body? Fattest interesting, right, what
because you know how much I love to eat. Well,
it's a struggle, a full time struggle.

Speaker 3 (55:25):
Sweet potato over here.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Now that I'm trying to tell you now that I'm
when I was playing basketball every day all day, I
could eat all whatever I wanted and it would just
fall off, king, king King, Oh me, yeah, oh, I've
been to the gym. You know what I'm saying now,
the guy who doesn't play basketball and the guy who
is just being daddy and acting and whatever, like, oh,

(55:49):
this is full. I gotta watch what I eat. I got,
I'll just have I have a bite of that. It's amazing,
take it away, you know, I mean as opposed to
the guy who eat the whole pan, or the whole plate,
or the whole you know what I mean. Because every
time I start to eat, you see it right here,
my face goes from from this to like full moon,

(56:13):
and then I get this nice little this little kind
of like gut action will start to fill in like
that pandemic gut.

Speaker 3 (56:23):
Yeah, that's what we all become character actors, right, It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
It took me that the whole year just to just
get back to normal. During the whole pandemic. I was like,
what is this thing? I've never felt this flap of Yeah,
chushion back here.

Speaker 3 (56:46):
No, we're growing into new people, Robbie. We can be
whatever we want now. If you want to be like,
not basketball, Robbie, you want to be sweet potato Robbie,
I want that for you, just playing piano, eating.

Speaker 1 (56:58):
Just being super und No, not for me. So I've
been I gotta I gotta stay in the gym a lot,
a lot a lot to just kind of be what
you know and are familiar with the routing that you've
gotten used to.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
So question number nineteen, what do you consider your greatest achievement?

Speaker 1 (57:27):
Probably not discussed this. I mean, yeah, these children. Yeah, family.
There's nothing on this planet that I have done that
I'm more proud of that I've been a part of
that I am more happy about. Like I had no cluel, guys,

(57:48):
I always know I wanted to be a dad and
all that good stuff, and I have a great dad
and I was like, I'm gonna be a cool dad
or whatever. But like once the first one came out, yes,
oh my gosh, yeah, this is amazing. Give her please,
I oh, she was just a low load for bread.

(58:10):
I was like, oh my gosh ah. It was like
an instant connection and like, I don't know, my whole
world has just completely completely shifted, like priorities, mindset, minute

(58:34):
by minute, second by second thoughts. It's just they're a
part of every single thing and that goes into my
whole being. And I had no clue I was going
to appreciate it so much and love it so much.

Speaker 7 (58:48):
So that's so cool.

Speaker 1 (58:51):
That's I love it. That's that's I'm most proud of
my family, and like it's thank God for a healthy,
beautiful one kids, healthy kids. Thank God.

Speaker 7 (59:02):
That's beautiful. Okay, so we get to the end of
this beautiful life. If, if, and when you are to die,
and if you had the option to come back as
a person or a thing in your next life, what
would it be.

Speaker 1 (59:18):
I'll come back.

Speaker 7 (59:25):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (59:26):
Two.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
That's an amazing question. I never thought about that, but
seeing everything kind of through my two year old son's eyes,
I would come back as Hendricks River Jones, my son.

Speaker 3 (59:39):
That's his name.

Speaker 6 (59:41):
Prob me.

Speaker 3 (59:41):
That name is so sweet.

Speaker 1 (59:43):
I will come back as Hendricks. I promise I'll come
back as him. He is the sweetest nicest, coolest, just
funniest little kid. I'm like, there are a lot of
kids out there impartial to mine, of course, but like
this kid, he's he's been here before or something like, yeah,

(01:00:08):
he gets it, he gets it all. We take him
to the doctor or take him to whatever, and the
people are doing little stuff and they're like, oh, oh,
he's he understands it all. He gets it all. He's
he's or my aunt, she's a speech there speaks pathologist,
and she came over and she was like just hanging out.

(01:00:29):
She was like, oh, he's advanced. You don't know. And
I was like what. She was like, kids don't talk
along the way he talks age two. They can't articulate
those thoughts like does he talk about that all the time.
I was like yeah, yeah, And she's like, oh, I
don't see that, Like that's just like that's just not

(01:00:53):
your average two year old, you know what I mean.
And I was like, Wow, that's amazing. And just to
see the way his brain works, I'm like, I would
come back.

Speaker 3 (01:01:01):
You know what I love about podcasts though, I just
want to interject, like interject the same way we didn't
know what streaming was gonna mean the same way we
didn't know like what the advancements in our industry were
going to do. I just love the idea that this
podcast could be listened to thirty years from now and
your kids can hear you talk about them in this
way like that, to me just is such a nice

(01:01:23):
little time capsule. So I just love that you're able
to articulate like all that affection that you have for them.

Speaker 6 (01:01:30):
Yeah, it's so good.

Speaker 1 (01:01:33):
Is that?

Speaker 3 (01:01:33):
Then?

Speaker 4 (01:01:34):
I wonder if the answer to this is fatherhood, but
maybe it's something else. Is there anything in your life
that comes so naturally to you you just know it's
exactly where you're meant to be.

Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
Uh, pardon, that was very sweet too.

Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
Oh we made him crud. We did it, We did.
You were so stoic. I just moved on. I didn't
realize you were like having in a moment.

Speaker 1 (01:01:58):
I'm sorry, I was not having moment. There is some
wind kicked up, and here in the middle of this
it's dusty. In the dust. You don't close these windows up,
invisible person, you sweet man, Please ask me that question again,
because I was lost in the so good.

Speaker 6 (01:02:21):
And it's so true your kids are going to be
so grateful.

Speaker 1 (01:02:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:02:26):
The question is there anything in your life that just
comes so naturally to you, you know as soon as
you do it, this is where I'm meant to be.
Every every moment that you're doing it, you're like this,
this is exactly right.

Speaker 1 (01:02:37):
Funny enough you would think it's fatherhood, but I feel
like acting is that way.

Speaker 6 (01:02:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
And that's not to even pat myself on the back
or be like, oh man, you got this thing. But
like from my first from my first acting class, when
I was like watching people on stage and doing stuff
and then when I kind of like took my first
stab at it, like was I good? No, But like

(01:03:06):
it just felt like this is where I'm supposed to be,
you know what I mean, This is what I'm supposed
to be doing. I thought it was this other thing,
but like, oh my god, this is the thing. This
is the thing, This is the thing, this is that,
this is where all my life energy, This is where
the fulfillment, this is where like oh like what this

(01:03:32):
is crazy? I want to do this all the time.
And that's that was like the energy I like, I
was like ooh I want to I messed up. Nothing
ever kind of made me go like Ooh, I don't
want to ever try that again. I was just like, oh,
I want to try it again, now you know what
I mean. So this thing, the acting thing I've always
like since I started off. I enjoy it. I love it.

(01:03:56):
What about you guys? Quick? I know the next question?
What about you guy? I'm so god? What's that thing?

Speaker 3 (01:04:02):
I like doing community service projects? It is just the
I love pta. I like doing fun like I like
being the community lady. It's the place I belong. Yeah, yeah,
I liked it.

Speaker 7 (01:04:16):
I feel that way about advocacy. If it's not for us,
I don't know what we're doing here, you know. So,
so to use, like to use any version of a
platform or privilege or leverage or a microphone that I
have for equity, feels like where I'm supposed to be.

Speaker 6 (01:04:38):
It's good.

Speaker 4 (01:04:40):
Yeah, I've reached. There's something about man. I grew up
in theater. Every time I set foot on the stage,
and I've been moving my body and singing and acting
all at the same time, that whole try effecta I'd
be split between that and motherhood. They both feel extraordinarily
natural to me, just in my body. When the first
thing that comes to mind when I think of what

(01:05:00):
where do I feel immediately like, Oh, it's.

Speaker 3 (01:05:03):
In my body. This is it, this is my comfort zone.

Speaker 6 (01:05:05):
It's those two places.

Speaker 1 (01:05:08):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
Robbie, we have two questions left with you, Darling. All right,
this is a wish fulfillment. One a wish fulfillment. You
can live anywhere in the world. You take the wife,
the children, take your friends with you wherever. Where are
you guys going.

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
One place that I thought I could live and would
want to spend a significant amount of time that's not
here in the States, probably be Barcelona.

Speaker 3 (01:05:40):
Barcelone and the food something to look out everywhere.

Speaker 6 (01:05:47):
It's great.

Speaker 1 (01:05:48):
It's beautiful.

Speaker 3 (01:05:49):
The cobblestone streets, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
It's beautiful. And the paperman, the culture. Some one of
my best friends just moved there with his wife a
couple of years ago and they're having a second child
out there, and he's from the They just moved there
and they're just having a great time living in Barcelona,
and I'm like, oh, that would be cool. Possibly Barcelona.

Speaker 7 (01:06:15):
Good answer, okay, okay, And question twenty three final, what
is your most treasured possession?

Speaker 3 (01:06:26):
Hmm, Aside from the urn full of contacts that we
are going to give you.

Speaker 1 (01:06:34):
You are stealing my answers. I don't like that. I
don't like you. I don't like you. Man, Now what
am I going to say? I think a younger version
of me would have said some person, and I'm like,
I don't own anybody. I learned that. That was a
young lesson that I learned, Like, these people don't belong

(01:06:55):
to you. Your mind, No, you're not. See. I don't
want to get through philosophical but I feel like the
things that I that I can pass on to my kids,
like whether that's just like my sense of morality or

(01:07:17):
my sense of spirituality, or my beliefs or my faith
in God, or you know, like to properties that I
own or you know, monetary wealth or you know, just
the things that I can take and be a steward
and pass on to my children. I think those would
be the most valuable things. And right now it's just

(01:07:37):
kind of more about like beliefs and way of treating
people and things of that nature.

Speaker 6 (01:07:45):
That's my favorite answer so far.

Speaker 3 (01:07:47):
Yeah, that's your legacy.

Speaker 1 (01:07:49):
There you go, And legacy is different for every person,
but I feel like that that that's one way to
describe it. I guess My legacy is my most prized possession,
if you can call it that.

Speaker 4 (01:08:04):
Yeah, because that's what you've amassed, and your experience and
your mind and your heart.

Speaker 6 (01:08:10):
I mean, those things are a part of you.

Speaker 3 (01:08:12):
Works for me. You baby, this afternoon with Robbie Joe,
what a date.

Speaker 1 (01:08:21):
You're just saying that because of my scarf.

Speaker 3 (01:08:24):
Oh you looked handsome. You gave the sweetest answers. You
better go kiss those babies and your pretty wife and
tell them that we're grateful for them because they have
you in this blissed out place that we get to
celebrate with you.
