Speaker 4 (00:56):
Where do I hate? Chess? It on Austin as well?
You stand right.
Speaker 7 (01:00):
Here, baby, Hello everybody, Chris Kelly, I am loving this.
I was out in the audience laughing. I don't even
know what it's supposed to come on and hang out
with you guys up here. To be honest, you're just
having a blast. They tapped me on the shoulder, They're like,
you're on next. I was like, I am.
Speaker 5 (01:20):
Welcome to our late night show.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
I love it, big fan Taylor. It says here you
play music? What's that like?
Speaker 7 (01:32):
I never touched a guitar until I came on One
Street Hill.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
What was your favorite part about playing Chris Keller or like, actually, actually,
I want to know what your favorite color moment is
one specific thing that always.
Speaker 7 (01:51):
Actually there's this I remember thinking, I don't know why
this is so funny, But when I think it might
have been Sophia and Bevin walking towards me as cheerleaders
and the line like God loves Chris Keller, I was like,
this feels like crossing some kind of line where now
you're bringing.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
God into it.
Speaker 7 (02:07):
And it was just like God loves Chris Keller because
there's two cheerleaders coming towards me. I was like, this
is the next level. He was like supposed to be
in his twenties and the.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Supposed in our twenties. God loves Chris Keller.
Speaker 7 (02:25):
Yeah, it was the early two thousands.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
TV was different.
Speaker 8 (02:29):
There's a few things we have to ignore because thankfully
we are all.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
The same age.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
How I sleep at night. I think we.
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Can all agree our show was not in any way problematic, right,
Like we nailed it across the yea perfect no notes.
You have catchphrases though, like that's what's cool about it
and kind of similar to Jana, like you got to
play a wide range of a character like from being
(02:57):
thoroughly deplorable to being wildly lovable and.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Still have vulnerable moments too, Like, there were a few
of those when we were really surprised that they gave
you those moments to actually drop in and be a
real human in the situation.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
Yeah, it was actually surprising to see how much he
cared for other people. Like we were even talking about
this when we were making some music and stuff. We
were rewatching some stuff, and it's funny the moments they
would have Chris Keller set up a situation for somebody
else and you wouldn't realize he was actually being selfless
and he was kind of falling onto grenade for something,
which I thought was so you never really saw the
(03:35):
heart on him. You just saw the situation he set up,
and I thought that was kind of an interesting way
to make him lovable.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Did you do character work to try and figure out
who this guy is and why he's so or did
you you were just felt the instinct, You're like, I
know who this guy is.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
I honestly, Craft Tyler, what's your process?
Speaker 7 (03:52):
This is what's weird is you know on the show,
they kind of start writing for you a little bit
I think I was only supposed to do an episode
or two, and I did it, and then I I
kept getting more and more episodes, and the guy kept
getting more cocky and more of an apphole.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
And I was like, what's happening right now?
Speaker 7 (04:06):
Like why does this feel like I'm getting written for?
Speaker 4 (04:10):
You know, Like so I don't know. I was just
going with that.
Speaker 7 (04:13):
I would get the new script, I'd read it, and
I would be like, no way, I'm about to say
this to you know, Joy or Sophia or whatever.
Speaker 8 (04:21):
It's crazy, oh, Jenna, and I don't know anything about that.
I weirdly feel like the three of us had such
similar experiences, because the way you talk about meeting Alex
is exactly how I felt when I first read.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
I was like, I can't do this? Who does this?
Speaker 8 (04:41):
And you're like reading your scripts going who does this?
And weirdly it kind of gives you the best stuff.
So maybe we should read scripts backwards now or something.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
I wonder too, if you feel or I feel sometimes
that I don't have something to come with the character.
I have more of a freedom to play it, you know,
because it's not personal, so be like I would never
do this so I can do this or something, you know, yeah.
Speaker 8 (05:09):
Because it's literally insane. Yeah, so you're like, well, this
is fun.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
I remember there's a few times with you where I
would finish a scene and you would be like, I
literally hate you so much right now. But it felt
like it.
Speaker 9 (05:22):
I feel like there's a freedom in it because you
can really just go any direction yes.
Speaker 7 (05:26):
Because you know it's not me, and then I can
really do it where it's like is he acting? It
was never really I don't think a question of that.
It was like, this is clearly I hope.
Speaker 8 (05:35):
You know, like there's actually nothing more fun for our
friends out here to your point to do a scene
at work and be like you are the worst. I'm
obsessed with you.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
You crushed that.
Speaker 8 (05:48):
It's like it's completely mental in a fun way, which
is why our podcast is sponsored by Better Hope, Go
to Therapy everyone.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
But it is a t to like both you and Janna.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
And I've said this on the pod where I'm like,
in the hands of a lesser actor, those two roles
would have been the shelf life would have been so short,
they would have not been likable, There would have not
been any like natural curiosity, after watching them for an episode.
But like the fact that you guys, like I've said
this so many times about you general, I'm like, she's
teflon because like they threw everything at you and nothing stuck,
(06:26):
Like you just navigated it so gracefully, and Tyler like
I had because I hadn't seen one through six. Yeah,
and I hadn't seen one through six, So when you
came on the scene, I was just like, oh, wow,
this is who this guy is. And I only knew
you as Tyler in real life, and I'm like, look
at my sweetheart buddy playing an absolute dick.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
But again, but I watched it going like, dude, this odd.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
They must have seen so many guys auditioning this role
who were just straight douches.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Yeah yeah, and like me, you felt no, But you
guys crushed it.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
I think it's a testament to you too, how much
how we loved that Chris Keller.
Speaker 9 (07:07):
And Alex are well, you crushed it as well.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
I just love it.
Speaker 6 (07:10):
By the way, talking about the like the creators like
seeing something in us and writing to it. They're like, Wow,
he's a he knows film and he's a promising director.
We're gonna have him be a director. Holy she's the
songbird of a generation. She can play guitar. Let's have
her be a music star. Hey, we got Rob Buckley.
How about he talks to ghosts and.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I don't know, likes comic books. Yeah, that'll work, just
give him that. What about the treats?
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Treats? Yeah, you became a superstar. You you created a
billion dollar business and sold it. I got shot and stocked.
You did great help the affairs with the chair.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
I think that means you're lovable Rob.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Okay, right, yeah, that's.
Speaker 8 (07:56):
That's I'm stretching to find you a through line.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
You're a good man.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
I respect the silver lining on that. Yeah, h okay,
that's h e LP dot com.
Speaker 8 (08:09):
We didn't ask Tyler the question. Yeah, we were talking
about the wrap up for the characters. Do you remember
your wrap up? Did you like it? There have been
literal screams of Chris Keller's on the lamb from the
audience tonight, so people really liked it.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
How do you feel about it?
Speaker 4 (08:29):
I loved it.
Speaker 7 (08:29):
I was so surprised that, after all Chris Keller had
been through that. In the final scene when he's you know,
we're watching Jamie shoot the basketball, the crowd. You know,
we're all there forty years later, whatever the math is
on that, And there was just Chris Keller hanging with
the crowds, still like we've done Thanksgiving.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
Together every year for the last two decades. Go for it, Jamie.
Speaker 7 (08:52):
I was like, who would have seen that coming?
Speaker 4 (08:55):
You know, like season two, like.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
He's like, everyone's weird.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
Chris, He's coming to Christmas again.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
Chris Keller ever find love?
Speaker 4 (09:06):
I know, I know he didn't.
Speaker 7 (09:07):
He's just there at Jamie's games, single uncle Chris.
Speaker 8 (09:13):
And every week Hayley has to be like, don't talk
to the cheerleaders, Chris.
Speaker 5 (09:17):
Don't do it.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Dude. You became the weird uncle.
Speaker 6 (09:21):
But I know you showed up at the start of
season nine in a ridiculous beard, right, and but now
in real life you show up with the beard and Buddy,
you're making it work.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
My gosh, Jim, I was just saying, you kind of
you kind of look like Abraham Lincoln.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Yes, I might say biopics Lincoln.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
I feel like this is a role.
Speaker 10 (09:47):
Serious.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
I mean they asked him to play Elvis. Maybe Abe
is next, like sexy young Abe. That's a new out.
This to fall on CBS.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Young Abe, you do have a strong innate sense of
right and wrong.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
It's never got to so.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
You know, just saying, okay, all right, let's do a
little rapid fire, Which oh couple is most likely to
break up?
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Oh my god, that's a great one.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
Guests, go, which oh couples most chase?
Speaker 11 (10:22):
Yes, shot fire, mew, I love that, Nayley, I'm kidding, no.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
I was, I was gonna say thank you. It was
obviously an opportunity to boom me, guys, Chris.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Keller and and what was Chelsea?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Uh Tara?
Speaker 7 (10:52):
Not Sarah not not Alex, not Alex.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Sarah was not Alex not Alex?
Speaker 5 (10:58):
Right right, yeah, anybody else?
Speaker 8 (11:00):
Okay, wait, hold on, my cards are all out of order.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Guys.
Speaker 8 (11:03):
I forgot we were using.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
What's your worst habit?
Speaker 8 (11:06):
Ohil as a character or.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
I don't know how about this what's your worst on
screen habit?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Because we all do things. We all did little ticks
right that we all know.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
My mouth open, you do finish a sentence, and then
I'm sitting there listening to the other actor, and all
my brain is going is shut your damn mouth, shut.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
It, shut it.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Else does I've never noticed that from you, but you
know who does it is what's the space? From Downton
Abbey who played Matthew. Every time he finished saying a line,
he would say blah blah blah blah blah, and he
took this like breath and his mouth open.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
I was always like cleit her mouth. He's a good actor.
I mean nothing, It's just a funny tick.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I always put my hand up to my head because
I when I feel like I'm supposed to feel emotions
that I don't actually feel, I have the stress instinct.
Speaker 8 (11:51):
To just like now we know, to be like, can
you tell how stressed I am?
Speaker 4 (12:00):
I have been now mine.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
It's weird because I don't do it in real life,
but there I see myself this all the time, where
i'd move my I go like this with my jigo.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Yes, I've seen you.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I never do that in real life.
Speaker 6 (12:13):
I don't know why Tyler has a bad habit of
stealing scenes. I think I say you know a lot
when I don't know my lines. And I've actually heard
this in auditions where they say you said you know
a lot, and I'm accumulics.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
I'll be like, you know, it's like.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
You know you know, it's like you know, and I
don't know the line, and.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
So I'll be like you know, you know.
Speaker 7 (12:39):
So if you ever see me do that on the show,
it's because I went out too late the night before.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
I love it else, how about you?
Speaker 4 (12:48):
What do you go?
Speaker 8 (12:49):
I have like a weird sort of anxious thing. I mean,
part of the reason I decided to cut my hair
was to see if I could stop doing it when
I'm thinking or stressed, which you know, it's twenty twenty five.
I was like all the time, I'll like do like
this with my hair right here, and I don't realize
I'm doing it, and I literally started to pull it out.
But the weird thing is I don't do it when
(13:12):
we're rolling. Like the minute the camera rolls, I stop
doing the thing that I do unconsciously so often. When
I was working with Sky up in Toronto, she was like,
are you what's happening? Because you have like a full
Rainman tick and then you stop doing it And I
don't know how you do it so much. And I
(13:33):
don't know how you do it not at all. And
I hadn't ever realized that I don't do it on camera.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
But it's like, a, that's kind of cool.
Speaker 8 (13:41):
I wonder if well, I don't know, or I wonder
if it comes from like when social media started and
my trolls on the Internet kept being like, stop flaring
your nostrils when you cry, and I was like, fuddy,
flare their nostrils when they cry.
Speaker 9 (13:59):
Cry.
Speaker 8 (14:00):
I also I was like, I can't control my face
when I'm crying, like what. So there's definitely a few
scenes in the later years of our show when like
Twitter was really popping and we were trying to save
the world where I'm trying so hard to hold my
face still when I'm crying that like literally one of
my eyes like starts, and so then I'm just on
(14:21):
camera being like, man, I'm like, that doesn't that doesn't
look better.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
That actually looks worse. So I don't I don't know.
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
Do you guys ever notice or are you ever paying
attention to how much you're.
Speaker 9 (14:32):
Blinking when I I don't blink when I'm tired. So
one of my one of my director friends, Brian Herzlinger,
shot out to him, but he I'm really bad past
like ten o'clock. I don't like night shoots. I hate
like I really just don't like him at all. But
at like three, four or five in the morning, he's like,
I had to try to cut around your blinking is
(14:53):
you don't blink when you're tired. So I just go
like this, I don't blink.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
That's a super powerful I do well.
Speaker 9 (15:00):
But it's just like like.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
A lot of directors like love that.
Speaker 6 (15:05):
Yeah, really, yeah, because if you blink, you're you're breaking
the connection between the viewers and your eyeballs. So like
not blinking can be very like it pulls the viewer in.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Yeah, there's between three and five in the morning, and because.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
There's a lot of blink a lot of people like
they they will like actively try to get their blinks
out during the other person's coverage. And so like I'm
always that was the thing. I am like wildly impressed
when people cannot blink. And so like I'll be watching
a movie with Jenny and there'll be someone playing dead
and and we've gotten to the point where like thirty
seconds into the scene, She'll be like, don't say it.
(15:43):
I know you're gonna say, you're so impressed that that
actor hasn't blinked yet.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
But I'm like, it's so hard.
Speaker 9 (15:48):
It's really I've never heard of that before.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Well, there's this whole scene in The Master with Philip
Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix where he's literally saying nerdle
or he's going don't blink, and he has a stopwatch.
Phillipsy more Hoffin's timing him and every time Joaquin Phoenix blinks,
he goes start again, start again, start again, and Joaquin.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
Just has a hissy fit and he freaks out.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
It's the most incredible scene.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
But I actually think it's a nod to like sort
of this whole conversation of directors and actors and and
you know, being able to stand with another actor for
an entire scene and stare him down and keep your
eyes open. I mean, it's it's it's I don't know,
it's this weird little easter egg.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
As our job ever sounded weirder.
Speaker 8 (16:32):
Yeah, By the way, I was just having the moment
where I was like, I wonder if all of our
friends who were here with us are like, huh, so
this is what they talk about when they're all together.
Truly you're getting it on the Everyone's like, wow, they
must have had some wild times.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
We're like so the thing about blinking, Yeah, they're probably
out partying. We're at it. We're at like Olive gardenment.
Don't like Janet. The way you didn't blink today was incredible?
Speaker 5 (16:57):
It all right? Should we do some you have some
questions for us?
Speaker 4 (17:11):
I feel like, okay, I think we have a friend
out there with a microphone. Yes, who is gonna help
facilitate this?
Speaker 7 (17:18):
My name's Becca.
Speaker 10 (17:19):
First, I wanted to say thank you guys for dedicating
such a big part of your lives to the show
and answer the podcast and us as a whole, because
obviously we're all here because it meant something, So thank you.
And my question was, I know Hillary touched on it
a little bit, but for you guys, what was it
like to reclaim like this chapter of your life, this
(17:39):
part of your life, like through the trauma, through everything,
and kind of like take that the good and make
it like way outstand the bad.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Yeah, a huge, it's huge. I really echo everything that
she said. There is so much that we grew up
on the show. We make so many dumb mistakes when
you're twenty and twenty five, Like there's the way that
you approach if you're fumbling through life at that. I mean,
I guess at every stage, but particularly in your twenties.
And I can't speak for anyone else, but I know
(18:10):
that for me, I walked out of the situation of
our show and didn't know how to feel about it.
I had a lot going on in my own personal
life too. I kind of felt like I had walked
out of a car crash with a baby, and I
was like, I don't know what to do next, and
so I just moved forward with my life and I
didn't ever really look back, and the conventions always felt
a little awkward for me because I didn't I hadn't
(18:32):
dealt with my relationship to the show, and I didn't
really know how I felt about it. And I grew
in that over the years into a place of feeling better.
But it wasn't until we really started doing this and
having the conversations. I mean, how often do we get
to go sit and look at our younger selves face
to face day after day after day, and look at
(18:53):
the choices she made and what was going on in
her life at the time, and love her.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
I needed that. I needed that.
Speaker 12 (19:06):
I would say the same, you.
Speaker 8 (19:08):
Know, it's really easy even when you've spent ten years
together like in and out every day, and you think,
I literally see no one else in my life except
for I don't know what six weeks a year other
than like these people. It's really easy to tell yourself
(19:29):
that every fear you have is true because it's your
full life. It's really easy to tell yourself that every
piece of information you know is all of the information.
It's really easy to feel slighted or hurt or afraid
and never have the thing that felt that way change.
(19:54):
And so it solidifies, it calcifies, it becomes hard and true.
And what nobody told us about at the time, and
what I think we've all had the chances to talk
to each other about, is like, yeah, there was a
lot of good, but the stuff that was hard was
really hard. And unlike out in your life where eventually
(20:16):
you find time to unpack it, we were all too
scared to unpack certain things while we were here because
we were so scared to rock the boat.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
It was Pandora's box.
Speaker 8 (20:27):
Well, yeah, it's like if I touch it, maybe everything
will fall apart. It's like house of cards. Yes, And
so the really interesting thing is I think the distance
was required both for us to feel safe enough to
have some of the conversations you've heard us talk about
on the podcast, to be like, hey was this, like
(20:48):
where did this come from? Or I heard that like
what did you hear? Or and you know, we all
got to start putting things together and go, oh, it's
always bigger than you see, you know. And I knew
that would be special because we'd started it. I knew
there was more to do. What I didn't know was that,
(21:09):
in a way, doing that together would make those things
more realistically sized. And then all the really great stuff,
like even sitting on this couch and I being like,
remember when she was just writing country music and we
were like, what the fuck?
Speaker 5 (21:24):
That's so cool?
Speaker 8 (21:26):
Like those things that were amazing become as amazing as
they are again. Like I think when you've gone through
things that are hard, sometimes the hard thing becomes the
boogeyman and it grows and so you're sad, your happy
things get shrunken down. And this for us, and then
(21:47):
I think in the ripple effect for our whole group,
it's like the boogeymen have gotten smaller and we're like, oh,
you're a piece of little monster.
Speaker 5 (21:55):
Get out of here. And I'm like, all the good
things feel like this.
Speaker 8 (22:00):
They're big and they're inclusive and they're special, and we
didn't have that at the time. And also how were
we supposed to We were like twenty five and confused.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
We get to go back and love the younger versions
of ourselves and each other and each other.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
Yeah, like wow, it's so cool.
Speaker 7 (22:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:19):
I echo what both of you said and what Hillary said, because,
as I've talked about in the pod, like One Tree
Hill was a really like uncomfortable, hard time for me personally,
and so when I left the show, I was very
content shutting the door and just leaving it in the
past and never revisiting it. And one of the biggest
gratitudes I have for our fan base is like, I
(22:42):
was a part of getting to give this show to you,
But it's because of the fan base that I got
the gift of being able to experience it back because
I left it in the rearview mirror. But then conventions
started happening, and I was like, oh, man, like I
just that version of myself was tough.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
That's an awkward time.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
But then I started going and like getting to see
you guys and realizing like, oh, we went through something
crazy together and actually, you guys are freaking dope. I
like hanging out with you and then meeting the fans
and seeing how much you love the show and being like, Okay,
maybe it wasn't so bad to then getting to do
this show, specifically rewatching times where I'm like, I see
a guy who is just struggling with no toolkit, doing
(23:21):
the best he can, and I can have sympathy for him,
and then I can get to appreciate the show as
a viewer and just be.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Like, man, this is cool.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
But if it wasn't for you all and the opportunities
for conventions in this podcast, I never would have gotten
that gift.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
Yeah, so thank you this no one who gets to
do this. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
By the way, like we joke about therapy a lot
because we're all very obviously into it, but like, seriously,
this is the best therapy in the world. And then
you look at people and you go like, go back
and look at your stuff as soon as you feel ready,
because the sooner you do it, the sooner you could
have this.
Speaker 9 (23:59):
To release the way of it and you get to
hold your little girl's hand along the way in a
healthier place.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Yeah, great question.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
Thank you, Thank you, and thank you guys for continuing
to show up and making it possible for us to
share this with you.
Speaker 13 (24:14):
Yes, first and foremost, guys, I'm sure I can speak
for everyone. Thank you for giving us all a place
where we're all home, where every thing's safe and everyone
is home. And specifically, Sophia, thank you for using your
platform as.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
A member of as a member of the LGBT community.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
What you do every day on your.
Speaker 13 (24:36):
Social media is and you using your voice, it means
the world, I'm sure to everyone else, but I know
that it does for me.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
So thank you.
Speaker 13 (24:45):
So I know that there's been a million in one
jump to shark moments, But Sophia, do you have any
in particular that you looking back over the entire seasons?
Is there anything that you're like that one was crazy
but it was also really fun?
Speaker 7 (25:00):
Good question?
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (25:07):
I mean, uh, you know, we were touching on it earlier,
like it there were things that felt that way to
me personally in the beginning of playing Brooke, because I
was like, literally, who behaves like this?
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Like what are we doing?
Speaker 9 (25:25):
And because you came from an all girls school, like
I went, Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:28):
There were fifty five girls in my graduating class, you guys.
And then I went to college and I was the
philanthropy chair of my sorority.
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Like what were boys?
Speaker 6 (25:39):
What was like?
Speaker 8 (25:39):
What are we talking about? They handed me pom poms.
I remember when we like started doing episode.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
One, and I was like, what do I do at these?
Like I was basically a.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Mathlete but not but like you know, for ap English,
I don't know it, it was hard to get into.
And then yeah, there were things that just felt insane,
like so many things we did on the show.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
How does one pick?
Speaker 3 (26:08):
But I think I'm trying to remember that things Brooke
did that were involved with that really jumped the shark.
Speaker 7 (26:15):
Maybe in the back of Joe Manganillo's car.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
Oh, somebody's still just.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
Yeah, I don't know. The weird thing is you kind
of have to lean in something that felt like jumping
the shark. For me was that like an eighteen year
old girl supposedly started a brand that I guess today
would be worth a billion dollars on her computer and
sewed twenty six dresses in one night, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Yes, and the costumes the superheroes that you just like
to do, like superhero costume with a handmade corset Like what, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
No, elastic is not easy to sew. No, it's not.
Speaker 8 (26:57):
But like it also, there was something kind of funny
about it, Like, Okay, so I have this fashion company,
and my best friend's a rock star, her husband's in
the NBA. My other best friends started a record label,
her husband's a best selling author, my husband's a director.
Speaker 4 (27:14):
Like what are we talking about.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
Oh, let's not forget that our tiny town has an
Eastern European crime syndition.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
Yes, of course, heavy gang activity, and you know, and
the biggest deal touring musicians in America want to come
hang out with us at Trick. But what I liked
about it is that, in this really interesting way, our
show was almost insanely aspirational, but like in our relationships,
(27:44):
was really attainable. It was really real. Watching it back now,
sometimes I'm like, Wow, we've really dealt with that on
screen way better than we knew how to off screen
at the time. Like, now that makes sense to me,
that approach. I So, I don't know, I don't know
how to answer the question exactly.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
But I what was it was about?
Speaker 8 (28:06):
Like what was the biggest jumped the shark the jumps
to shark moment. Joy's like, you're having a deep ADHD moment.
You've lost the plot, And she's right, but in the
weirdest way. Like I think, to your point, the way
we committed to the things that were insane made them
work for us.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
So I'm kind of into it.
Speaker 8 (28:25):
I mean, I wish I'd had to take my clothes
off less in the beginning, because like my parents were
watching the show and that was super awkward for me.
But also now I'm like, I looked good.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (28:36):
What's up.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
Thank you, Thank Heay.
Speaker 12 (28:46):
My name is Samantha, And kind of to piggyback off
of what she just said, a quick thank you to
Sophia for using your platform and following you in the
early days is why I registered to vote the day
I turned eighteen.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
Thank you.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
And I still look to your socials for resources and references,
so I just really appreciate you. And then my question
is for Joy. I think just about every straight woman
my age is looking for their Nathan. So do you
have a favorite Nathan and Haley moment or storyline or episode?
Speaker 5 (29:19):
Oh god, oh man, it's so hard to pick one.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
I mean, I enjoyed working through the stuff when Nathan
had hurt his back and he was in the wheelchair,
and you know, as an actor, I enjoyed that because
it was just something different to be able to do
and play and explore. They all felt so valuable to
me because I was in so much tumult tumult tumult
(29:49):
in my personal life that when I would get to
come to set and work with James, there was it
was always just like usually it was light and happy
and loving, and it was just like sweets surrounding it.
It was something that we talk a lot about how
our body doesn't know the difference between like the muscle
when we're crying. All your body knows is that you're crying.
It doesn't know like that you're faking it for a script.
(30:12):
And so there was something I think that really fed
my soul about just being able to be a part
of moments that were so beautiful and sweet. Even though
James and I always had a completely platonic relationship, but
like those moments, there's a lot of healing that was
happening for me.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
So that was really lovely. But it makes it hard
to answer your question because they're kind.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
Of all in this amalgam of beauty in my mind.
Anytime we made out in the rain was really fine.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
Yeah, who gets to do that all the time. I
mean also, it was like really cold, like pelting us
in the face, but it kind of made it more fun.
Speaker 6 (30:51):
I guess.
Speaker 11 (30:51):
I know.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
I wasn't asked, but can I give you mine?
Speaker 5 (30:54):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Granted it's only from season seven, eight to nine. It
didn't even happen on screen. It happened in a voice.
It's after Nathan's been kidnapped. You're in the car with
Quinn and you tell the story about how you thought
Nathan's favorite ice cream was mint chocolate chip, and then
he says to you, that's not my favorite flavor.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
I just order it because I know it's yours.
Speaker 7 (31:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
Yeah, it's really good, so good.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
It was a lot like that.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Yeah, yes, great question, Thank you very much.
Speaker 11 (31:29):
That's so lovely.
Speaker 12 (31:43):
My questions for Rob, now that you're in Wilmington right now,
what is your favorite restaurant and.
Speaker 10 (31:49):
What is your order?
Speaker 6 (31:55):
You may.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
Rob enjoys, Uh, well, I don't.
Speaker 7 (32:00):
I don't want to say the name of the well,
I know, well, there's a restaurant, and.
Speaker 9 (32:05):
Just do it.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
They deserve the preak. It's gonna be Yeah, here's contrad
take it away food.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
Are you get over?
Speaker 8 (32:11):
Are you gonna give away a secret?
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Honestly, it is, it is. It is a secret. But listen,
this is a safe space. We're all friends. Here we go.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
There's a hotel and writes Phil Beach, it's a little
lovely spot. It's called the Holiday Inn and they have
a restaurant on site. They make a wonderful cessar salad.
But here's where it goes from great to transcendent. Their
house corn.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Bread is the business.
Speaker 6 (32:45):
But these maniacs, they don't just stop it good corn bread.
They're like, oh no, no, what if we took it,
cubed it, deep fried and turned it into a creuton.
So it is like the best sweetest savory donut bite
in your salad. So my go to order it's caesar salad,
was shrimp and a side of corn bread.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Cessar. Thank you, cessa salad and salada sessar gon un
lado de pond maise span de mais.
Speaker 6 (33:17):
But for real, though, like absolutely worth your time for
those of you momented like pop By, Try their corn bread.
It comes with two small loaves, one of you if
you're hungry, can't eat it? I know because Tyler and
I both do, But you could easily share it with
four people and then the croutons ask for extra go nuts.
Speaker 8 (33:33):
I also just love envisioning filming here, people being like.
Speaker 5 (33:39):
You you live here?
Speaker 4 (33:42):
Why are you at a hotel?
Speaker 8 (33:44):
And you're like, oh, these cornbread crutons?
Speaker 5 (33:46):
Yeah, and the people just going.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
What Like that's the moment I need to be a
fly on the wall for I gotta.
Speaker 5 (33:54):
Go back and do it again.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
Wait, what how did you find it?
Speaker 6 (34:00):
Like?
Speaker 4 (34:00):
Why did you go there in the first place and
get and find it?
Speaker 6 (34:03):
You know how Captain America can just like sense Injustice
and Spider Man has his Spidery sense.
Speaker 4 (34:11):
I kind of had the same thing going with good foods.
That's true. That's true.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
Like if you drop me in an airport with no agenda,
I will find my way to the best eatery without
a doubt.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
Yes, we start talking about what we're gonna eat if
we're gonna be in the same city, like months ahead
of time.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
That's how I knew about these croutons. And last night
he facetimed me, I was in kay last night.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
I got this order to go and I was stuffed
on croutons.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
He facetimed me.
Speaker 7 (34:38):
I was in bed shirtless and I was like.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
I'm in a creuton Koma. He's like he do man.
We just facedime and it was unbelievable.
Speaker 7 (34:47):
He was a right, like these croutons are unreal.
Speaker 5 (34:50):
I hope they put your face on the menu.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
I would love that.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
What I also love is that everyone's last FaceTime with
you is foods food.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
This is a room of our listeners, so they know
obviously I have an issue.
Speaker 8 (35:04):
Yeah, Like I facetimed Rob today because I went on
a little errand I snuck out. I said I had
something to do.
Speaker 5 (35:12):
I needed to go to Sonic.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
It's a little mommy pop place in the neighborhood. I've
brought Rob.
Speaker 8 (35:19):
A corn dog and when I got back, he wasn't here,
and I was like, where in this building are you?
I face timed him and he was like, I'm not
coming in for an hour and I was like, but
I have this corn dog for you. And then we
both genuinely had the debate of like should you save that?
Speaker 5 (35:40):
It'll probably be.
Speaker 8 (35:41):
Not good and he was like you should You should
eat it?
Speaker 5 (35:45):
And I felt really loved.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (35:47):
It was one of those moments where it's like, if
you love something, you truly have to like set it
free and if it comes back to you, it's meant
for you. It was like, no, Sophia, you should you
should eat the warm corn dog.
Speaker 8 (35:56):
I did, and then as I started to eat it,
Stephen was like, Rob's not coming. And so then I
cut it in half and gave the other half to Stephen.
Speaker 5 (36:04):
And I was like, you know what we do? We like,
we really do love each other.
Speaker 3 (36:10):
No, I just love that we all have the same
love language. I mean food is like I fundamentally if
someone feed.
Speaker 5 (36:15):
To you know, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Now being fed is a serious love language of mine.
I'll do anything for your feed.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Great question, Thank you so much.
Speaker 14 (36:31):
Hello everyone, Hi there, my name is Aurora. I'm here
from Brooklyn, New York. Super excited to be here. I
actually think I might throw up in a second.
Speaker 4 (36:40):
Yeah, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 5 (36:42):
You want to want that. My question is actually for Jana.
Speaker 14 (36:47):
I was inspired before, and I feel really bad that
you didn't really get a chance to have your happy ending.
Speaker 5 (36:52):
Or at least know what your ending was.
Speaker 7 (36:54):
So would you think do you think that.
Speaker 14 (36:58):
That your character would have found her way back to
Chase in the future.
Speaker 9 (37:05):
I do, I really think so.
Speaker 5 (37:07):
I think they would have.
Speaker 9 (37:08):
I mean I always kind of wanted that, and I think,
you know, Stephen would say, oh, he thinks that Mio
was the right one, but then he's recently changed that.
And I'm like, good because we were like meant.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
To be together about time. Damn it.
Speaker 9 (37:21):
Yeah, I was like, thanks for coming to that realization.
I've always been there, so you know, we've you know,
we've got to have that combo. But yeah, I think
we both wanted that arc to finish, and I think
we would have. It would have been nice. Now would
they still be together that I don't know, but I
think they would have found a way back at some point.
Speaker 7 (37:38):
Hopefully they will be tbdank. I just realized he had
a real taste for musicians because it was Mia, then Alex,
and then when he was single, his best friend was
Chris Keller.
Speaker 4 (37:51):
What's that all about?
Speaker 11 (37:53):
Anyway?
Speaker 4 (37:54):
I just wanted to insert myself there for what it's worth.
I am hardcore team Chase and Alex.
Speaker 11 (38:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (38:01):
Me too.
Speaker 9 (38:04):
He needs a little fun in his life.
Speaker 5 (38:05):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 4 (38:10):
Hi, I'm Laura, Hey, Laura.
Speaker 15 (38:13):
One of the things I love about Win Tree Hill
was the soundtracks every time I watched. Every time I
watched an episode, I just wanted to write down the
lyrics as fast as I could for any song that
came on. So my question is actually for Tyler, because
I got to meet you in two thousand and eight
when you performed at Central Michigan University Nira Chips. What
was some of your favorite parts of the music around
(38:36):
One Tree Hill or is there anything that you would
have changed maybe to fit the vibe of an episode
a little bit more.
Speaker 7 (38:41):
The music was such a huge part of the show.
I mean, a lot of the producers on the show
were either from MTV or came into it from the
music side of things. So from finding you know, Gavin
for the theme song early on to casting myself, like
if it wasn't going to be me, they were gonna
have another musician on. But I learned so much music.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
From the show.
Speaker 7 (39:02):
Butch Walker, you know, was one of them. Ryan Adams,
you know, And I mean, I know I talk about
this all the time with fans, but whether it was
the coda or whether it was the music just in
the episodes, or the episodes being named after songs. Music
was a huge character on the show, and I've never
seen a show. I mean, there's been a couple other ones.
Gray's Anatomy does it really well, and there's a few
(39:23):
shows like this that really.
Speaker 4 (39:25):
Take the music.
Speaker 7 (39:26):
And there's something about music that takes a moment that's
so honest and just drives it right in there, you know.
And Joy and I've been talking about this a lot too.
Some of the songs just totally connected. And sometimes when
a producer or people on the show, you know, suggests
a song to sing or they have ideas musically, I'm like, okay,
you know, I feel like a lot of the suggestions
(39:48):
on the show were dead on.
Speaker 4 (39:49):
I mean, you guys know you've.
Speaker 7 (39:50):
Seen the show so many times, but how many of
you guys had to stop an episode like you didn't
be like, what is that song?
Speaker 4 (39:55):
I have to she'sam it? It's crazy.
Speaker 7 (39:58):
I did the same thing. So anyway, I just uh.
I was so honored to be a part of it.
And a lot of the songs I got to sing
on the show were inspiring, and they took songs of
mine that I didn't think would be hits or singles
and they'd be like, we want you to perform that song,
and my label would be like, but this is the
single and they'd be like, we don't care, we want
that song on the show. And I was always like, yeah,
(40:18):
you know, I thought they had great taste. So I
was just honored to like get to be a part
of it, and I was along for the ride musically
because it was unreal.
Speaker 4 (40:26):
Yeah, thanks for the question.
Speaker 5 (40:29):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
All right, gang, this has been real, but I think
it's time we bid adieu.
Speaker 6 (40:34):
WHOA what a fun experience this has been. Yeah, how
freaking cool man the.
Speaker 5 (40:40):
Coolest and this night like what oh like you know
how much like I.
Speaker 6 (40:46):
Can imagine the majority of us right really thought prom
night was gonna be cool and it was pretty want
wah you know, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
This feels like the prom night I wish I had.
Speaker 6 (40:57):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying, Like it just didn't
disappoint on any level, and much like my real life
prom night, it's gonna end with me eating cake and.
Speaker 4 (41:06):
Then going to bed alone. It's okay, it was a great.
Speaker 5 (41:11):
What that does? What that builds class?
Speaker 4 (41:13):
Yes that's right, Yes, good for you, sir. All right,
Well let's let's thank some peeps.
Speaker 6 (41:19):
First and foremost, let's thank our producer extraordinaire, Hannah.
Speaker 5 (41:22):
Where are you, Hannah? Hannah, come here, Hannah, We come here.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
People, Sasha see you, Sash shut you.
Speaker 5 (41:31):
Guys. Hear us talk about Hannah a lot.
Speaker 8 (41:33):
And when we have questions we should know the answer
to and we don't, and we ask them and then
we vamp and then we go, oh, we've just gotten
the answer.
Speaker 5 (41:41):
That's Hannah. Yeah, that's Hannah. That's right.
Speaker 6 (41:45):
She somehow manages to keep the show on track. Seventy
five percent of her job is probably wrangling cats, which
is us and then they are. Twenty five percent is
coddling my paper, then ego. But Hannah, you do it
supremely well and with grace, and the show couldn't happen
without you, So.
Speaker 4 (42:00):
You very much.
Speaker 5 (42:00):
Hannah. Where is he? Where's Easton?
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Allen?
Speaker 5 (42:04):
East Easton is somewhere? Are you in the bar?
Speaker 6 (42:08):
There is camera If you feel so inclined, you can
sprint up her prices right style.
Speaker 4 (42:13):
If not, no worries. Also, miss Alena, if you're around there,
she is there.
Speaker 15 (42:21):
She is there.
Speaker 3 (42:21):
She is so for you guys who don't know Easton
is the guy who is making every time that we
get on our zoom and one of us goes, I
can't hear anything you're talking.
Speaker 5 (42:30):
I can't hear you.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
I can't he facetimes us. He walks us through our
technical stuff. He puts all this down, he edits all
the episodes together. He's like a brilliant guy, and we're
just so grateful for him.
Speaker 5 (42:39):
And Alena yes the problem and those people say, Hi,
do those people want?
Speaker 6 (42:47):
People?
Speaker 5 (42:48):
And assistant who has been this all.

The things that you see go up on drama Queen

Speaker 8 (42:54):
Come on out here.
Speaker 5 (42:54):
I'm saying, you're.
Speaker 3 (42:58):
All these people we can not do this without. We're
so grateful for and to iHeart, who's been so amazing.
Speaker 8 (43:05):
We actually have a couple members from our live events
team who were with us in all those videos you
saw from our tour and who helped set this up.
All the folks from iHeart, Will you just come unless
you went home they're allowed to, but I hope they're
still here.
Speaker 5 (43:21):
Come say how do you want truth here so much?
All right?
Speaker 8 (43:28):
Well, you're getting you're getting one wave. Some people are
just coy and we're cool with that, you know, whatever
you're comfortable with, We respect.
Speaker 6 (43:36):
You think unless we're forgetting anybody. I would say the
last and the biggest thank you would be to you all.
Speaker 5 (43:44):
Yes, we really couldn't.
Speaker 3 (43:47):
We couldn't have kept this going without you, truly thank
you for showing up yeah constantly.
Speaker 8 (43:53):
I know we've touched on it and Rob you did
it really equently earlier, but it really is the thing
we will always repeat. We left Wilmington and thought we
were going home and didn't know that we'd ever come back,
and you guys brought us back like over and over
and over again. And the way you have felt about
(44:15):
the show really made us go, well, what if they
see you?
Speaker 11 (44:20):
Know?
Speaker 8 (44:20):
And you hear that right in some of your closest relationships,
Someone who loves you will say, I wish you could
see yourself the way I see you, And you guys
made us feel that way about something we spent ten
years of our lives doing that we had really complicated
feelings about, and we were like, well maybe we should
(44:41):
try to see it the way they see it. And
I don't mean this with any hyperbole whatsoever. You changed
our lives.
Speaker 5 (44:50):

Is our next guest.
Speaker 6 (00:33):
Give it up for the incomparable Tyler Meredith Hilton.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Where do I hate? Chess? It on Austin as well?
You stand right.
Speaker 7 (01:00):
Here, baby, Hello everybody, Chris Kelly, I am loving this.
I was out in the audience laughing. I don't even
know what it's supposed to come on and hang out
with you guys up here. To be honest, you're just
having a blast. They tapped me on the shoulder, They're like,
you're on next. I was like, I am.
Speaker 5 (01:20):
Welcome to our late night show.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
I love it, big fan Taylor. It says here you
play music? What's that like?
Speaker 7 (01:32):
I never touched a guitar until I came on One
Street Hill.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
What was your favorite part about playing Chris Keller or like, actually, actually,
I want to know what your favorite color moment is
one specific thing that always.
Speaker 7 (01:51):
Actually there's this I remember thinking, I don't know why
this is so funny, But when I think it might
have been Sophia and Bevin walking towards me as cheerleaders
and the line like God loves Chris Keller, I was like,
this feels like crossing some kind of line where now
you're bringing.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
God into it.
Speaker 7 (02:07):
And it was just like God loves Chris Keller because
there's two cheerleaders coming towards me. I was like, this
is the next level. He was like supposed to be
in his twenties and the.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Supposed in our twenties. God loves Chris Keller.
Speaker 7 (02:25):
Yeah, it was the early two thousands.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
TV was different.
Speaker 8 (02:29):
There's a few things we have to ignore because thankfully
we are all.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
The same age.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
How I sleep at night. I think we.
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Can all agree our show was not in any way problematic, right,
Like we nailed it across the yea perfect no notes.
You have catchphrases though, like that's what's cool about it
and kind of similar to Jana, like you got to
play a wide range of a character like from being
(02:57):
thoroughly deplorable to being wildly lovable and.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Still have vulnerable moments too, Like, there were a few
of those when we were really surprised that they gave
you those moments to actually drop in and be a
real human in the situation.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
Yeah, it was actually surprising to see how much he
cared for other people. Like we were even talking about
this when we were making some music and stuff. We
were rewatching some stuff, and it's funny the moments they
would have Chris Keller set up a situation for somebody
else and you wouldn't realize he was actually being selfless
and he was kind of falling onto grenade for something,
which I thought was so you never really saw the
(03:35):
heart on him. You just saw the situation he set up,
and I thought that was kind of an interesting way
to make him lovable.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Did you do character work to try and figure out
who this guy is and why he's so or did
you you were just felt the instinct, You're like, I
know who this guy is.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
I honestly, Craft Tyler, what's your process?
Speaker 7 (03:52):
This is what's weird is you know on the show,
they kind of start writing for you a little bit
I think I was only supposed to do an episode
or two, and I did it, and then I I
kept getting more and more episodes, and the guy kept
getting more cocky and more of an apphole.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
And I was like, what's happening right now?
Speaker 7 (04:06):
Like why does this feel like I'm getting written for?
Speaker 4 (04:10):
You know, Like so I don't know. I was just
going with that.
Speaker 7 (04:13):
I would get the new script, I'd read it, and
I would be like, no way, I'm about to say
this to you know, Joy or Sophia or whatever.
Speaker 8 (04:21):
It's crazy, oh, Jenna, and I don't know anything about that.
I weirdly feel like the three of us had such
similar experiences, because the way you talk about meeting Alex
is exactly how I felt when I first read.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
I was like, I can't do this? Who does this?
Speaker 8 (04:41):
And you're like reading your scripts going who does this?
And weirdly it kind of gives you the best stuff.
So maybe we should read scripts backwards now or something.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
I wonder too, if you feel or I feel sometimes
that I don't have something to come with the character.
I have more of a freedom to play it, you know,
because it's not personal, so be like I would never
do this so I can do this or something, you know, yeah.
Speaker 8 (05:09):
Because it's literally insane. Yeah, so you're like, well, this
is fun.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
I remember there's a few times with you where I
would finish a scene and you would be like, I
literally hate you so much right now. But it felt
like it.
Speaker 9 (05:22):
I feel like there's a freedom in it because you
can really just go any direction yes.
Speaker 7 (05:26):
Because you know it's not me, and then I can
really do it where it's like is he acting? It
was never really I don't think a question of that.
It was like, this is clearly I hope.
Speaker 8 (05:35):
You know, like there's actually nothing more fun for our
friends out here to your point to do a scene
at work and be like you are the worst. I'm
obsessed with you.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
You crushed that.
Speaker 8 (05:48):
It's like it's completely mental in a fun way, which
is why our podcast is sponsored by Better Hope, Go
to Therapy everyone.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
But it is a t to like both you and Janna.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
And I've said this on the pod where I'm like,
in the hands of a lesser actor, those two roles
would have been the shelf life would have been so short,
they would have not been likable, There would have not
been any like natural curiosity, after watching them for an episode.
But like the fact that you guys, like I've said
this so many times about you general, I'm like, she's
teflon because like they threw everything at you and nothing stuck,
(06:26):
Like you just navigated it so gracefully, and Tyler like
I had because I hadn't seen one through six. Yeah,
and I hadn't seen one through six, So when you
came on the scene, I was just like, oh, wow,
this is who this guy is. And I only knew
you as Tyler in real life, and I'm like, look
at my sweetheart buddy playing an absolute dick.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
But again, but I watched it going like, dude, this odd.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
They must have seen so many guys auditioning this role
who were just straight douches.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Yeah yeah, and like me, you felt no, But you
guys crushed it.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
I think it's a testament to you too, how much
how we loved that Chris Keller.
Speaker 9 (07:07):
And Alex are well, you crushed it as well.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
I just love it.
Speaker 6 (07:10):
By the way, talking about the like the creators like
seeing something in us and writing to it. They're like, Wow,
he's a he knows film and he's a promising director.
We're gonna have him be a director. Holy she's the
songbird of a generation. She can play guitar. Let's have
her be a music star. Hey, we got Rob Buckley.
How about he talks to ghosts and.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I don't know, likes comic books. Yeah, that'll work, just
give him that. What about the treats?
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Treats? Yeah, you became a superstar. You you created a
billion dollar business and sold it. I got shot and stocked.
You did great help the affairs with the chair.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
I think that means you're lovable Rob.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Okay, right, yeah, that's.
Speaker 8 (07:56):
That's I'm stretching to find you a through line.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
You're a good man.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
I respect the silver lining on that. Yeah, h okay,
that's h e LP dot com.
Speaker 8 (08:09):
We didn't ask Tyler the question. Yeah, we were talking
about the wrap up for the characters. Do you remember
your wrap up? Did you like it? There have been
literal screams of Chris Keller's on the lamb from the
audience tonight, so people really liked it.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
How do you feel about it?
Speaker 4 (08:29):
I loved it.
Speaker 7 (08:29):
I was so surprised that, after all Chris Keller had
been through that. In the final scene when he's you know,
we're watching Jamie shoot the basketball, the crowd. You know,
we're all there forty years later, whatever the math is
on that, And there was just Chris Keller hanging with
the crowds, still like we've done Thanksgiving.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
Together every year for the last two decades. Go for it, Jamie.
Speaker 7 (08:52):
I was like, who would have seen that coming?
Speaker 4 (08:55):
You know, like season two, like.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
He's like, everyone's weird.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
Chris, He's coming to Christmas again.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
Chris Keller ever find love?
Speaker 4 (09:06):
I know, I know he didn't.
Speaker 7 (09:07):
He's just there at Jamie's games, single uncle Chris.
Speaker 8 (09:13):
And every week Hayley has to be like, don't talk
to the cheerleaders, Chris.
Speaker 5 (09:17):
Don't do it.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Dude. You became the weird uncle.
Speaker 6 (09:21):
But I know you showed up at the start of
season nine in a ridiculous beard, right, and but now
in real life you show up with the beard and Buddy,
you're making it work.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
My gosh, Jim, I was just saying, you kind of
you kind of look like Abraham Lincoln.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Yes, I might say biopics Lincoln.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
I feel like this is a role.
Speaker 10 (09:47):
Serious.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
I mean they asked him to play Elvis. Maybe Abe
is next, like sexy young Abe. That's a new out.
This to fall on CBS.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Young Abe, you do have a strong innate sense of
right and wrong.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
It's never got to so.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
You know, just saying, okay, all right, let's do a
little rapid fire, Which oh couple is most likely to
break up?
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Oh my god, that's a great one.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
Guests, go, which oh couples most chase?
Speaker 11 (10:22):
Yes, shot fire, mew, I love that, Nayley, I'm kidding, no.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
I was, I was gonna say thank you. It was
obviously an opportunity to boom me, guys, Chris.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Keller and and what was Chelsea?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Uh Tara?
Speaker 7 (10:52):
Not Sarah not not Alex, not Alex.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Sarah was not Alex not Alex?
Speaker 5 (10:58):
Right right, yeah, anybody else?
Speaker 8 (11:00):
Okay, wait, hold on, my cards are all out of order.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Guys.
Speaker 8 (11:03):
I forgot we were using.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
What's your worst habit?
Speaker 8 (11:06):
Ohil as a character or.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
I don't know how about this what's your worst on
screen habit?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Because we all do things. We all did little ticks
right that we all know.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
My mouth open, you do finish a sentence, and then
I'm sitting there listening to the other actor, and all
my brain is going is shut your damn mouth, shut.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
It, shut it.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Else does I've never noticed that from you, but you
know who does it is what's the space? From Downton
Abbey who played Matthew. Every time he finished saying a line,
he would say blah blah blah blah blah, and he
took this like breath and his mouth open.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
I was always like cleit her mouth. He's a good actor.
I mean nothing, It's just a funny tick.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I always put my hand up to my head because
I when I feel like I'm supposed to feel emotions
that I don't actually feel, I have the stress instinct.
Speaker 8 (11:51):
To just like now we know, to be like, can
you tell how stressed I am?
Speaker 4 (12:00):
I have been now mine.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
It's weird because I don't do it in real life,
but there I see myself this all the time, where
i'd move my I go like this with my jigo.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Yes, I've seen you.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I never do that in real life.
Speaker 6 (12:13):
I don't know why Tyler has a bad habit of
stealing scenes. I think I say you know a lot
when I don't know my lines. And I've actually heard
this in auditions where they say you said you know
a lot, and I'm accumulics.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
I'll be like, you know, it's like.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
You know you know, it's like you know, and I
don't know the line, and.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
So I'll be like you know, you know.
Speaker 7 (12:39):
So if you ever see me do that on the show,
it's because I went out too late the night before.
Speaker 5 (12:46):
I love it else, how about you?
Speaker 4 (12:48):
What do you go?
Speaker 8 (12:49):
I have like a weird sort of anxious thing. I mean,
part of the reason I decided to cut my hair
was to see if I could stop doing it when
I'm thinking or stressed, which you know, it's twenty twenty five.
I was like all the time, I'll like do like
this with my hair right here, and I don't realize
I'm doing it, and I literally started to pull it out.
But the weird thing is I don't do it when
(13:12):
we're rolling. Like the minute the camera rolls, I stop
doing the thing that I do unconsciously so often. When
I was working with Sky up in Toronto, she was like,
are you what's happening? Because you have like a full
Rainman tick and then you stop doing it And I
don't know how you do it so much. And I
(13:33):
don't know how you do it not at all. And
I hadn't ever realized that I don't do it on camera.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
But it's like, a, that's kind of cool.
Speaker 8 (13:41):
I wonder if well, I don't know, or I wonder
if it comes from like when social media started and
my trolls on the Internet kept being like, stop flaring
your nostrils when you cry, and I was like, fuddy,
flare their nostrils when they cry.
Speaker 9 (13:59):
Cry.
Speaker 8 (14:00):
I also I was like, I can't control my face
when I'm crying, like what. So there's definitely a few
scenes in the later years of our show when like
Twitter was really popping and we were trying to save
the world where I'm trying so hard to hold my
face still when I'm crying that like literally one of
my eyes like starts, and so then I'm just on
(14:21):
camera being like, man, I'm like, that doesn't that doesn't
look better.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
That actually looks worse. So I don't I don't know.
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
Do you guys ever notice or are you ever paying
attention to how much you're.
Speaker 9 (14:32):
Blinking when I I don't blink when I'm tired. So
one of my one of my director friends, Brian Herzlinger,
shot out to him, but he I'm really bad past
like ten o'clock. I don't like night shoots. I hate
like I really just don't like him at all. But
at like three, four or five in the morning, he's like,
I had to try to cut around your blinking is
(14:53):
you don't blink when you're tired. So I just go
like this, I don't blink.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
That's a super powerful I do well.
Speaker 9 (15:00):
But it's just like like.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
A lot of directors like love that.
Speaker 6 (15:05):
Yeah, really, yeah, because if you blink, you're you're breaking
the connection between the viewers and your eyeballs. So like
not blinking can be very like it pulls the viewer in.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Yeah, there's between three and five in the morning, and because.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
There's a lot of blink a lot of people like
they they will like actively try to get their blinks
out during the other person's coverage. And so like I'm
always that was the thing. I am like wildly impressed
when people cannot blink. And so like I'll be watching
a movie with Jenny and there'll be someone playing dead
and and we've gotten to the point where like thirty
seconds into the scene, She'll be like, don't say it.
(15:43):
I know you're gonna say, you're so impressed that that
actor hasn't blinked yet.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
But I'm like, it's so hard.
Speaker 9 (15:48):
It's really I've never heard of that before.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Well, there's this whole scene in The Master with Philip
Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix where he's literally saying nerdle
or he's going don't blink, and he has a stopwatch.
Phillipsy more Hoffin's timing him and every time Joaquin Phoenix blinks,
he goes start again, start again, start again, and Joaquin.
Speaker 7 (16:05):
Just has a hissy fit and he freaks out.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
It's the most incredible scene.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
But I actually think it's a nod to like sort
of this whole conversation of directors and actors and and
you know, being able to stand with another actor for
an entire scene and stare him down and keep your
eyes open. I mean, it's it's it's I don't know,
it's this weird little easter egg.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
As our job ever sounded weirder.
Speaker 8 (16:32):
Yeah, By the way, I was just having the moment
where I was like, I wonder if all of our
friends who were here with us are like, huh, so
this is what they talk about when they're all together.
Truly you're getting it on the Everyone's like, wow, they
must have had some wild times.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
We're like so the thing about blinking, Yeah, they're probably
out partying. We're at it. We're at like Olive gardenment.
Don't like Janet. The way you didn't blink today was incredible?
Speaker 5 (16:57):
It all right? Should we do some you have some
questions for us?
Speaker 4 (17:11):
I feel like, okay, I think we have a friend
out there with a microphone. Yes, who is gonna help
facilitate this?
Speaker 7 (17:18):
My name's Becca.
Speaker 10 (17:19):
First, I wanted to say thank you guys for dedicating
such a big part of your lives to the show
and answer the podcast and us as a whole, because
obviously we're all here because it meant something, So thank you.
And my question was, I know Hillary touched on it
a little bit, but for you guys, what was it
like to reclaim like this chapter of your life, this
(17:39):
part of your life, like through the trauma, through everything,
and kind of like take that the good and make
it like way outstand the bad.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Yeah, a huge, it's huge. I really echo everything that
she said. There is so much that we grew up
on the show. We make so many dumb mistakes when
you're twenty and twenty five, Like there's the way that
you approach if you're fumbling through life at that. I mean,
I guess at every stage, but particularly in your twenties.
And I can't speak for anyone else, but I know
(18:10):
that for me, I walked out of the situation of
our show and didn't know how to feel about it.
I had a lot going on in my own personal
life too. I kind of felt like I had walked
out of a car crash with a baby, and I
was like, I don't know what to do next, and
so I just moved forward with my life and I
didn't ever really look back, and the conventions always felt
a little awkward for me because I didn't I hadn't
(18:32):
dealt with my relationship to the show, and I didn't
really know how I felt about it. And I grew
in that over the years into a place of feeling better.
But it wasn't until we really started doing this and
having the conversations. I mean, how often do we get
to go sit and look at our younger selves face
to face day after day after day, and look at
(18:53):
the choices she made and what was going on in
her life at the time, and love her.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
I needed that. I needed that.
Speaker 12 (19:06):
I would say the same, you.
Speaker 8 (19:08):
Know, it's really easy even when you've spent ten years
together like in and out every day, and you think,
I literally see no one else in my life except
for I don't know what six weeks a year other
than like these people. It's really easy to tell yourself
(19:29):
that every fear you have is true because it's your
full life. It's really easy to tell yourself that every
piece of information you know is all of the information.
It's really easy to feel slighted or hurt or afraid
and never have the thing that felt that way change.
(19:54):
And so it solidifies, it calcifies, it becomes hard and true.
And what nobody told us about at the time, and
what I think we've all had the chances to talk
to each other about, is like, yeah, there was a
lot of good, but the stuff that was hard was
really hard. And unlike out in your life where eventually
(20:16):
you find time to unpack it, we were all too
scared to unpack certain things while we were here because
we were so scared to rock the boat.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
It was Pandora's box.
Speaker 8 (20:27):
Well, yeah, it's like if I touch it, maybe everything
will fall apart. It's like house of cards. Yes, And
so the really interesting thing is I think the distance
was required both for us to feel safe enough to
have some of the conversations you've heard us talk about
on the podcast, to be like, hey was this, like
(20:48):
where did this come from? Or I heard that like
what did you hear? Or and you know, we all
got to start putting things together and go, oh, it's
always bigger than you see, you know. And I knew
that would be special because we'd started it. I knew
there was more to do. What I didn't know was that,
(21:09):
in a way, doing that together would make those things
more realistically sized. And then all the really great stuff,
like even sitting on this couch and I being like,
remember when she was just writing country music and we
were like, what the fuck?
Speaker 5 (21:24):
That's so cool?
Speaker 8 (21:26):
Like those things that were amazing become as amazing as
they are again. Like I think when you've gone through
things that are hard, sometimes the hard thing becomes the
boogeyman and it grows and so you're sad, your happy
things get shrunken down. And this for us, and then
(21:47):
I think in the ripple effect for our whole group,
it's like the boogeymen have gotten smaller and we're like, oh,
you're a piece of little monster.
Speaker 5 (21:55):
Get out of here. And I'm like, all the good
things feel like this.
Speaker 8 (22:00):
They're big and they're inclusive and they're special, and we
didn't have that at the time. And also how were
we supposed to We were like twenty five and confused.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
We get to go back and love the younger versions
of ourselves and each other and each other.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
Yeah, like wow, it's so cool.
Speaker 7 (22:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:19):
I echo what both of you said and what Hillary said, because,
as I've talked about in the pod, like One Tree
Hill was a really like uncomfortable, hard time for me personally,
and so when I left the show, I was very
content shutting the door and just leaving it in the
past and never revisiting it. And one of the biggest
gratitudes I have for our fan base is like, I
(22:42):
was a part of getting to give this show to you,
But it's because of the fan base that I got
the gift of being able to experience it back because
I left it in the rearview mirror. But then conventions
started happening, and I was like, oh, man, like I
just that version of myself was tough.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
That's an awkward time.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
But then I started going and like getting to see
you guys and realizing like, oh, we went through something
crazy together and actually, you guys are freaking dope. I
like hanging out with you and then meeting the fans
and seeing how much you love the show and being like, Okay,
maybe it wasn't so bad to then getting to do
this show, specifically rewatching times where I'm like, I see
a guy who is just struggling with no toolkit, doing
(23:21):
the best he can, and I can have sympathy for him,
and then I can get to appreciate the show as
a viewer and just be.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Like, man, this is cool.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
But if it wasn't for you all and the opportunities
for conventions in this podcast, I never would have gotten
that gift.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
Yeah, so thank you this no one who gets to
do this. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
By the way, like we joke about therapy a lot
because we're all very obviously into it, but like, seriously,
this is the best therapy in the world. And then
you look at people and you go like, go back
and look at your stuff as soon as you feel ready,
because the sooner you do it, the sooner you could
have this.
Speaker 9 (23:59):
To release the way of it and you get to
hold your little girl's hand along the way in a
healthier place.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Yeah, great question.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
Thank you, Thank you, and thank you guys for continuing
to show up and making it possible for us to
share this with you.
Speaker 13 (24:14):
Yes, first and foremost, guys, I'm sure I can speak
for everyone. Thank you for giving us all a place
where we're all home, where every thing's safe and everyone
is home. And specifically, Sophia, thank you for using your
platform as.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
A member of as a member of the LGBT community.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
What you do every day on your.
Speaker 13 (24:36):
Social media is and you using your voice, it means
the world, I'm sure to everyone else, but I know
that it does for me.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
So thank you.
Speaker 13 (24:45):
So I know that there's been a million in one
jump to shark moments, But Sophia, do you have any
in particular that you looking back over the entire seasons?
Is there anything that you're like that one was crazy
but it was also really fun?
Speaker 7 (25:00):
Good question?
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (25:07):
I mean, uh, you know, we were touching on it earlier,
like it there were things that felt that way to
me personally in the beginning of playing Brooke, because I
was like, literally, who behaves like this?
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Like what are we doing?
Speaker 9 (25:25):
And because you came from an all girls school, like
I went, Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:28):
There were fifty five girls in my graduating class, you guys.
And then I went to college and I was the
philanthropy chair of my sorority.
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Like what were boys?
Speaker 6 (25:39):
What was like?
Speaker 8 (25:39):
What are we talking about? They handed me pom poms.
I remember when we like started doing episode.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
One, and I was like, what do I do at these?
Like I was basically a.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Mathlete but not but like you know, for ap English,
I don't know it, it was hard to get into.
And then yeah, there were things that just felt insane,
like so many things we did on the show.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
How does one pick?
Speaker 3 (26:08):
But I think I'm trying to remember that things Brooke
did that were involved with that really jumped the shark.
Speaker 7 (26:15):
Maybe in the back of Joe Manganillo's car.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
Oh, somebody's still just.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
Yeah, I don't know. The weird thing is you kind
of have to lean in something that felt like jumping
the shark. For me was that like an eighteen year
old girl supposedly started a brand that I guess today
would be worth a billion dollars on her computer and
sewed twenty six dresses in one night, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Yes, and the costumes the superheroes that you just like
to do, like superhero costume with a handmade corset Like what, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
No, elastic is not easy to sew. No, it's not.
Speaker 8 (26:57):
But like it also, there was something kind of funny
about it, Like, Okay, so I have this fashion company,
and my best friend's a rock star, her husband's in
the NBA. My other best friends started a record label,
her husband's a best selling author, my husband's a director.
Speaker 4 (27:14):
Like what are we talking about.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
Oh, let's not forget that our tiny town has an
Eastern European crime syndition.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
Yes, of course, heavy gang activity, and you know, and
the biggest deal touring musicians in America want to come
hang out with us at Trick. But what I liked
about it is that, in this really interesting way, our
show was almost insanely aspirational, but like in our relationships,
(27:44):
was really attainable. It was really real. Watching it back now,
sometimes I'm like, Wow, we've really dealt with that on
screen way better than we knew how to off screen
at the time. Like, now that makes sense to me,
that approach. I So, I don't know, I don't know
how to answer the question exactly.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
But I what was it was about?
Speaker 8 (28:06):
Like what was the biggest jumped the shark the jumps
to shark moment. Joy's like, you're having a deep ADHD moment.
You've lost the plot, And she's right, but in the
weirdest way. Like I think, to your point, the way
we committed to the things that were insane made them
work for us.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
So I'm kind of into it.
Speaker 8 (28:25):
I mean, I wish I'd had to take my clothes
off less in the beginning, because like my parents were
watching the show and that was super awkward for me.
But also now I'm like, I looked good.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (28:36):
What's up.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
Thank you, Thank Heay.
Speaker 12 (28:46):
My name is Samantha, And kind of to piggyback off
of what she just said, a quick thank you to
Sophia for using your platform and following you in the
early days is why I registered to vote the day
I turned eighteen.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
Thank you.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
And I still look to your socials for resources and references,
so I just really appreciate you. And then my question
is for Joy. I think just about every straight woman
my age is looking for their Nathan. So do you
have a favorite Nathan and Haley moment or storyline or episode?
Speaker 5 (29:19):
Oh god, oh man, it's so hard to pick one.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
I mean, I enjoyed working through the stuff when Nathan
had hurt his back and he was in the wheelchair,
and you know, as an actor, I enjoyed that because
it was just something different to be able to do
and play and explore. They all felt so valuable to
me because I was in so much tumult tumult tumult
(29:49):
in my personal life that when I would get to
come to set and work with James, there was it
was always just like usually it was light and happy
and loving, and it was just like sweets surrounding it.
It was something that we talk a lot about how
our body doesn't know the difference between like the muscle
when we're crying. All your body knows is that you're crying.
It doesn't know like that you're faking it for a script.
(30:12):
And so there was something I think that really fed
my soul about just being able to be a part
of moments that were so beautiful and sweet. Even though
James and I always had a completely platonic relationship, but
like those moments, there's a lot of healing that was
happening for me.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
So that was really lovely. But it makes it hard
to answer your question because they're kind.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
Of all in this amalgam of beauty in my mind.
Anytime we made out in the rain was really fine.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
Yeah, who gets to do that all the time. I
mean also, it was like really cold, like pelting us
in the face, but it kind of made it more fun.
Speaker 6 (30:51):
I guess.
Speaker 11 (30:51):
I know.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
I wasn't asked, but can I give you mine?
Speaker 5 (30:54):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Granted it's only from season seven, eight to nine. It
didn't even happen on screen. It happened in a voice.
It's after Nathan's been kidnapped. You're in the car with
Quinn and you tell the story about how you thought
Nathan's favorite ice cream was mint chocolate chip, and then
he says to you, that's not my favorite flavor.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
I just order it because I know it's yours.
Speaker 7 (31:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
Yeah, it's really good, so good.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
It was a lot like that.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Yeah, yes, great question, Thank you very much.
Speaker 11 (31:29):
That's so lovely.
Speaker 12 (31:43):
My questions for Rob, now that you're in Wilmington right now,
what is your favorite restaurant and.
Speaker 10 (31:49):
What is your order?
Speaker 6 (31:55):
You may.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
Rob enjoys, Uh, well, I don't.
Speaker 7 (32:00):
I don't want to say the name of the well,
I know, well, there's a restaurant, and.
Speaker 9 (32:05):
Just do it.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
They deserve the preak. It's gonna be Yeah, here's contrad
take it away food.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
Are you get over?
Speaker 8 (32:11):
Are you gonna give away a secret?
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Honestly, it is, it is. It is a secret. But listen,
this is a safe space. We're all friends. Here we go.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
There's a hotel and writes Phil Beach, it's a little
lovely spot. It's called the Holiday Inn and they have
a restaurant on site. They make a wonderful cessar salad.
But here's where it goes from great to transcendent. Their
house corn.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Bread is the business.
Speaker 6 (32:45):
But these maniacs, they don't just stop it good corn bread.
They're like, oh no, no, what if we took it,
cubed it, deep fried and turned it into a creuton.
So it is like the best sweetest savory donut bite
in your salad. So my go to order it's caesar salad,
was shrimp and a side of corn bread.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Cessar. Thank you, cessa salad and salada sessar gon un
lado de pond maise span de mais.
Speaker 6 (33:17):
But for real, though, like absolutely worth your time for
those of you momented like pop By, Try their corn bread.
It comes with two small loaves, one of you if
you're hungry, can't eat it? I know because Tyler and
I both do, But you could easily share it with
four people and then the croutons ask for extra go nuts.
Speaker 8 (33:33):
I also just love envisioning filming here, people being like.
Speaker 5 (33:39):
You you live here?
Speaker 4 (33:42):
Why are you at a hotel?
Speaker 8 (33:44):
And you're like, oh, these cornbread crutons?
Speaker 5 (33:46):
Yeah, and the people just going.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
What Like that's the moment I need to be a
fly on the wall for I gotta.
Speaker 5 (33:54):
Go back and do it again.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
Wait, what how did you find it?
Speaker 6 (34:00):
Like?
Speaker 4 (34:00):
Why did you go there in the first place and
get and find it?
Speaker 6 (34:03):
You know how Captain America can just like sense Injustice
and Spider Man has his Spidery sense.
Speaker 4 (34:11):
I kind of had the same thing going with good foods.
That's true. That's true.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
Like if you drop me in an airport with no agenda,
I will find my way to the best eatery without
a doubt.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
Yes, we start talking about what we're gonna eat if
we're gonna be in the same city, like months ahead
of time.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
That's how I knew about these croutons. And last night
he facetimed me, I was in kay last night.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
I got this order to go and I was stuffed
on croutons.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
He facetimed me.
Speaker 7 (34:38):
I was in bed shirtless and I was like.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
I'm in a creuton Koma. He's like he do man.
We just facedime and it was unbelievable.
Speaker 7 (34:47):
He was a right, like these croutons are unreal.
Speaker 5 (34:50):
I hope they put your face on the menu.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
I would love that.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
What I also love is that everyone's last FaceTime with
you is foods food.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
This is a room of our listeners, so they know
obviously I have an issue.
Speaker 8 (35:04):
Yeah, Like I facetimed Rob today because I went on
a little errand I snuck out. I said I had
something to do.
Speaker 5 (35:12):
I needed to go to Sonic.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
It's a little mommy pop place in the neighborhood. I've
brought Rob.
Speaker 8 (35:19):
A corn dog and when I got back, he wasn't here,
and I was like, where in this building are you?
I face timed him and he was like, I'm not
coming in for an hour and I was like, but
I have this corn dog for you. And then we
both genuinely had the debate of like should you save that?
Speaker 5 (35:40):
It'll probably be.
Speaker 8 (35:41):
Not good and he was like you should You should
eat it?
Speaker 5 (35:45):
And I felt really loved.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (35:47):
It was one of those moments where it's like, if
you love something, you truly have to like set it
free and if it comes back to you, it's meant
for you. It was like, no, Sophia, you should you
should eat the warm corn dog.
Speaker 8 (35:56):
I did, and then as I started to eat it,
Stephen was like, Rob's not coming. And so then I
cut it in half and gave the other half to Stephen.
Speaker 5 (36:04):
And I was like, you know what we do? We like,
we really do love each other.
Speaker 3 (36:10):
No, I just love that we all have the same
love language. I mean food is like I fundamentally if
someone feed.
Speaker 5 (36:15):
To you know, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Now being fed is a serious love language of mine.
I'll do anything for your feed.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Great question, Thank you so much.
Speaker 14 (36:31):
Hello everyone, Hi there, my name is Aurora. I'm here
from Brooklyn, New York. Super excited to be here. I
actually think I might throw up in a second.
Speaker 4 (36:40):
Yeah, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 5 (36:42):
You want to want that. My question is actually for Jana.
Speaker 14 (36:47):
I was inspired before, and I feel really bad that
you didn't really get a chance to have your happy ending.
Speaker 5 (36:52):
Or at least know what your ending was.
Speaker 7 (36:54):
So would you think do you think that.
Speaker 14 (36:58):
That your character would have found her way back to
Chase in the future.
Speaker 9 (37:05):
I do, I really think so.
Speaker 5 (37:07):
I think they would have.
Speaker 9 (37:08):
I mean I always kind of wanted that, and I think,
you know, Stephen would say, oh, he thinks that Mio
was the right one, but then he's recently changed that.
And I'm like, good because we were like meant.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
To be together about time. Damn it.
Speaker 9 (37:21):
Yeah, I was like, thanks for coming to that realization.
I've always been there, so you know, we've you know,
we've got to have that combo. But yeah, I think
we both wanted that arc to finish, and I think
we would have. It would have been nice. Now would
they still be together that I don't know, but I
think they would have found a way back at some point.
Speaker 7 (37:38):
Hopefully they will be tbdank. I just realized he had
a real taste for musicians because it was Mia, then Alex,
and then when he was single, his best friend was
Chris Keller.
Speaker 4 (37:51):
What's that all about?
Speaker 11 (37:53):
Anyway?
Speaker 4 (37:54):
I just wanted to insert myself there for what it's worth.
I am hardcore team Chase and Alex.
Speaker 11 (38:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (38:01):
Me too.
Speaker 9 (38:04):
He needs a little fun in his life.
Speaker 5 (38:05):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 4 (38:10):
Hi, I'm Laura, Hey, Laura.
Speaker 15 (38:13):
One of the things I love about Win Tree Hill
was the soundtracks every time I watched. Every time I
watched an episode, I just wanted to write down the
lyrics as fast as I could for any song that
came on. So my question is actually for Tyler, because
I got to meet you in two thousand and eight
when you performed at Central Michigan University Nira Chips. What
was some of your favorite parts of the music around
(38:36):
One Tree Hill or is there anything that you would
have changed maybe to fit the vibe of an episode
a little bit more.
Speaker 7 (38:41):
The music was such a huge part of the show.
I mean, a lot of the producers on the show
were either from MTV or came into it from the
music side of things. So from finding you know, Gavin
for the theme song early on to casting myself, like
if it wasn't going to be me, they were gonna
have another musician on. But I learned so much music.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
From the show.
Speaker 7 (39:02):
Butch Walker, you know, was one of them. Ryan Adams,
you know, And I mean, I know I talk about
this all the time with fans, but whether it was
the coda or whether it was the music just in
the episodes, or the episodes being named after songs. Music
was a huge character on the show, and I've never
seen a show. I mean, there's been a couple other ones.
Gray's Anatomy does it really well, and there's a few
(39:23):
shows like this that really.
Speaker 4 (39:25):
Take the music.
Speaker 7 (39:26):
And there's something about music that takes a moment that's
so honest and just drives it right in there, you know.
And Joy and I've been talking about this a lot too.
Some of the songs just totally connected. And sometimes when
a producer or people on the show, you know, suggests
a song to sing or they have ideas musically, I'm like, okay,
you know, I feel like a lot of the suggestions
(39:48):
on the show were dead on.
Speaker 4 (39:49):
I mean, you guys know you've.
Speaker 7 (39:50):
Seen the show so many times, but how many of
you guys had to stop an episode like you didn't
be like, what is that song?
Speaker 4 (39:55):
I have to she'sam it? It's crazy.
Speaker 7 (39:58):
I did the same thing. So anyway, I just uh.
I was so honored to be a part of it.
And a lot of the songs I got to sing
on the show were inspiring, and they took songs of
mine that I didn't think would be hits or singles
and they'd be like, we want you to perform that song,
and my label would be like, but this is the
single and they'd be like, we don't care, we want
that song on the show. And I was always like, yeah,
(40:18):
you know, I thought they had great taste. So I
was just honored to like get to be a part
of it, and I was along for the ride musically
because it was unreal.
Speaker 4 (40:26):
Yeah, thanks for the question.
Speaker 5 (40:29):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
All right, gang, this has been real, but I think
it's time we bid adieu.
Speaker 6 (40:34):
WHOA what a fun experience this has been. Yeah, how
freaking cool man the.
Speaker 5 (40:40):
Coolest and this night like what oh like you know
how much like I.
Speaker 6 (40:46):
Can imagine the majority of us right really thought prom
night was gonna be cool and it was pretty want
wah you know, yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
This feels like the prom night I wish I had.
Speaker 6 (40:57):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying, Like it just didn't
disappoint on any level, and much like my real life
prom night, it's gonna end with me eating cake and.
Speaker 4 (41:06):
Then going to bed alone. It's okay, it was a great.
Speaker 5 (41:11):
What that does? What that builds class?
Speaker 4 (41:13):
Yes that's right, Yes, good for you, sir. All right,
Well let's let's thank some peeps.
Speaker 6 (41:19):
First and foremost, let's thank our producer extraordinaire, Hannah.
Speaker 5 (41:22):
Where are you, Hannah? Hannah, come here, Hannah, We come here.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
People, Sasha see you, Sash shut you.
Speaker 5 (41:31):
Guys. Hear us talk about Hannah a lot.
Speaker 8 (41:33):
And when we have questions we should know the answer
to and we don't, and we ask them and then
we vamp and then we go, oh, we've just gotten
the answer.
Speaker 5 (41:41):
That's Hannah. Yeah, that's Hannah. That's right.
Speaker 6 (41:45):
She somehow manages to keep the show on track. Seventy
five percent of her job is probably wrangling cats, which
is us and then they are. Twenty five percent is
coddling my paper, then ego. But Hannah, you do it
supremely well and with grace, and the show couldn't happen
without you, So.
Speaker 4 (42:00):
You very much.
Speaker 5 (42:00):
Hannah. Where is he? Where's Easton?
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Allen?
Speaker 5 (42:04):
East Easton is somewhere? Are you in the bar?
Speaker 6 (42:08):
There is camera If you feel so inclined, you can
sprint up her prices right style.
Speaker 4 (42:13):
If not, no worries. Also, miss Alena, if you're around there,
she is there.
Speaker 15 (42:21):
She is there.
Speaker 3 (42:21):
She is so for you guys who don't know Easton
is the guy who is making every time that we
get on our zoom and one of us goes, I
can't hear anything you're talking.
Speaker 5 (42:30):
I can't hear you.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
I can't he facetimes us. He walks us through our
technical stuff. He puts all this down, he edits all
the episodes together. He's like a brilliant guy, and we're
just so grateful for him.
Speaker 5 (42:39):
And Alena yes the problem and those people say, Hi,
do those people want?
Speaker 6 (42:47):
People?
Speaker 5 (42:48):

so grateful for and to iHeart, who's been so amazing.
Speaker 8 (43:05):
We actually have a couple members from our live events
team who were with us in all those videos you
saw from our tour and who helped set this up.
All the folks from iHeart, Will you just come unless
you went home they're allowed to, but I hope they're
still here.
