Well, Happy Independence Day, everybody, Hey, happy for We are
going to take a week off of the podcast and
give our teams the holiday off. We will be back
with a recap next week, but we thought why not
do a little Fourth of July themed Q and A
(00:51):
today so we can celebrate with all of you.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
So fun. I love Fourth of July. It's one of
my favorite holidays. I think that's a Christmas. It might
be my favorite holiday. I even have like an old
vintage flag I ordered on Etsy. It's huge. Put it
up in front of my house. I love this holiday.
Fireworks come on. Doesn't get better.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yeah, Fourth of July gives me real sort of This
is gonna sound funny, but you'll get what I mean.
It gives me the that iconic age of advertising nostalgia.
It feels like classic Coca Cola in a glass bottle.
Like you know those red, white, and blue like rocket
(01:31):
shaped pops popsicles. Yeah, like I think I love. I
love the nostalgia of the decor.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, rocket pops, rocket pop gosh. Yes, and then the
little ones that you push up. Remember they they were
like Fred Flintstone, we were, yes, and then you're like
push pops oh, orange and cream.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Oh, and like when the ice cream trucks would actually
roll through the neighborhood. Yes, Oh, it's just.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
The ice cream trucks.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I do too. Are you going to travel or are
you going to be home for the.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Fourth I'm staying home, what about you?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
I don't actually know yet. I'm noodling on my plans
right now. I'm starting a film in the middle of July,
and I literally got my actual start date this morning,
on the day that we're recording this. So suddenly I
realize I have like five more days than I thought
I did, so I won't have to be in prep
(02:30):
over fourth of July weekend. And now I'm like, oh,
what am I gonna do?
Speaker 3 (02:35):
That's fun?
Speaker 2 (02:36):
I know, yeah, I know.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
I do like the idea of traveling somewhere and experiencing
Fourth of July and a very Americana like Man Jackson
Hole would be a fun place to be for Fourth
of July, or somewhere in Montana just like really, but
I mean here, I'm here in Tennessee. Like there's so
much in rural Tennessee that is really beautiful rolling hills
and that's one of the things I love about here
(03:00):
for Fourth of July. But Man, Fourth of July and
Jersey was so great too, like really populated area. The
whole town would come out to this one giant field
and there was an Italian restaurant up on the hill
and they'd make zeppels and give them out to everybody
in paper bags, and all the kids would be running
around with sparklers and you'd just run into I mean
there were one hundreds, probably a couple thousand people actually
(03:22):
flooding the streets. But here in town they do a parade.
There's a couple of parades and old cars that's really
fun to see in that small town setting. Yeah, the
whole day is always really fun. Do you have any
like traditions or anything that you do for Fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I mean, it's interesting because I feel like, especially in California,
because there's so much to do outdoors, people were always
traveling for the July weekend, you know, going camping or
going to the beach or doing something. Last year, it
was really we were on the West Coast and took
the kids to the Classic Car Parade fun. Yeah, like
(04:07):
out in Sierra Madre with my parents, and it was
so sweet. They absolutely loved it. And it's sweet to watch,
you know, kiddos just get to celebrate something that they
haven't really it isn't part of their regular routine.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Yeah. I just I'm such a sucker for glitter and
the fact that we all just get to run around
with little sparklers and you can buy fireworks and set
them off in a field and watch, you know, this
gorgeous show over a lake or a pasture or something.
I mean, it's just so fun.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Or wherever you are, it's really cool. California, well, La specifically,
you know, La County is so big, and there's a
really cool thing that happens all up and down the
coast from Palace Verdi's way up to Zooma Beach. There's
like barges and then all these beach cities do their
little fireworks displays. So if you get on the right
(05:05):
part of the beach outside of LA you can literally, yeah,
you can see all the way up and down the coast,
you know, a stretch that would take you to probably
two two and a half hours to drive. You can
see all the fireworks displays at the same time. And
it's really really cool.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
So have you ever been in a plane on the
evening of July fourth?
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I don't think so.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Really, it's so fun. It is really fun. If you
have a window seat and you're ever flying July fourth,
that is a super fun thing to see just everywhere.
I mean, the whole flight, you get to see all
these I mean, if it's you know, if the weather's okay.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, how fun. I know.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
But also your birthday is right around that time too,
so if you're gonna have extra days around the fourth,
you should totally take a vacation.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Now that I know, I won't be in you know,
the crazy moments of the fittings and the things and
taking all the random photos that go on the set
and the stuff. The prep part of the film, I
assumed I had to start on the first or second
of July and now I don't have to start until
after my birthday, and so I get to sort of
(06:18):
noodle on what I'm going to do for the fourth
and then I have to figure out where I'm going
to be so that I can actually plan a little
birthday celebration because I thought I'd be in LA but
I might not. I might just go somewhere maybe not.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Yeah, I'm not a much of a birthday but your
birthday is always around fourth of July. Do you ever
tie them together and just do like a one big
shabang so you get fireworks on your birthday? Come on?
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Not really Honestly, most of my experience again because people
in California are so outdoorsy for the most part, Like
no one was ever around for my birthday because everyone
would be traveling for fourth of July. So it's fun
as an adult to you know, have people around more.
(07:18):
It's less of the summer vacation stuff. But yeah, I
don't know. I I love to either do something that's
more of an experience, you know, to go somewhere, see
something new, And if I'm not going to travel to
celebrate my birthday, like I just want to have a nice.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Dinner and go yeah, yeah, totally.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
You know.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I know I've always been that way where the hype
of something is so stressful for me because it never
matches up to the actual event. If it's really hike
yourself up, yeah, or prom or a wedding, it's it's
just like there's so much prep and so much hype
for things that I don't know. For birthdays, I tend
(08:02):
to keep it really low key because then I know
I'll actually enjoy the evening and not feel any pressure.
But also, I don't know, am I is that like
a blocking ourselves off from the possibility of getting really
excited and experiencing something great because we've just been disappointed
so many times by events that are like well, wan
(08:23):
that we're just trying to prevent ourselves from maybe or
that I am. Maybe I don't don't want to loop
you into that, but I feel that way sometimes sometimes
maybe I just need to like really throw a big
party and let myself enjoy it rather than trying to
anticipate disappointment.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Yeah, I just I do think there are things like
New Year's that so rarely live up to the hype. Yeah,
But as I'm thinking about it, I'm also realizing that
maybe just the things that are very hyped for such
a holiday aren't things I particularly relish, you know, I'd
(09:01):
rather go somewhere or yeah, have a you know, like
a big cozy dinner is I would pick that hands
down over almost anything. Yeah. So I don't know. Maybe
it's just a matter of personal taste. Like some people
want to go to Vegas for New Year's I just
don't think I want to do that again.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
I wonder how Vegas and Fourth of July is. I've
never done that before.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Oh my god, probably so hot?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Yes, and can they even I guess they can do fireworks,
but can they? It's the desert that feels dangerous. I
don't know. Somebody has to have figured it out in Vegas.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
If anyone's been to Vegas for Fourth of July, send
us a DM tell us how it is.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Oh. I think the only thing I'll do for Fourth
of July for sure this year is make strawberry shortcake.
I really love that, and the strawberries are always so good.
You can make it with biscuits or angel food cake.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I like a biscuit.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
So it's the barbecue that is always my favorite thing
about the fourth and that's probably because my dad is
like a grill master.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Oh, I was gonna say, does he cook it? Or
do you guys have like a hole in the wall
spot that you just love? That's barbecue.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
It's my dad. He's so good. I just I think
that's part of the nostalgia for me, is like he
always does ribs on the fourth of July and it's
just the best.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Okay, Well, now here's really the question. Carolina barbecue or
like Memphis barbecue or you know that, what is it called?
When it's just like raised barbecue sauce, the red stuff
with the I vinegar.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
This will surprise people, I'm sure. But I'm not a
barbecue sauce person. I'm a seasoning like. I want to
make my own rub and really season things. Well, I
don't like sauce. I'm not a sauce person.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
High bar, high brow, high brow ribs.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yeah, it's actually that I just want them to be
more plain.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Yeah, exactly, because you really appreciate the flavor, so it
has to be done. You can't just smother it in
some kind of sauce and be okay with it. They
really need to know what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yeah, I'm not a sauce, kid, you got to cook it.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Well, I actually like that idea. I brow barbecue. You
can go in and get stuff that you know is
really good.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I'm into it. Yeah. I think that was one of
the things that really surprised me when we all moved
to Wilmington was the vinegar barbecue.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Yeah, that's that Carolina yellow barbecue.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Yeah. I didn't have a clue that that's how it
was done, But I do have nostalgia for that too.
When we'd get barbecue for second meal, you know, come
on be on our sixteen at work and the barbecue
would roll in and I was like, yes, give me
the cole slaw.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
All of us in our wardrobe like eating a bib
or you know, the ward girls coming in with pillowcases,
just tuck into our next Yeah, trash beds.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Oh gosh.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Well, we hope you're Fourth of July special and that
you don't get too much barbecue sauce on you, and
you get some fireworks and glitter and uh maybe an
old car show. Whatever it is that you're doing to
celebrate our incredible freedom in this country and independence, then
we hope you're having a great time doing it.
