Welcome back, Charlotte. How you doing good? Better now seeing
your face? It's been a minute. So sweet, I know
it has been a minute. I was hoping it'd be
in person. Hopefully that'll happen sometime soon. But in the meanwhile,

(00:21):
Congratulations on the new movie. Phobias is the name of it.
It already sounds pretty uh, pretty cool and scary. What's
it about that? That was a little job I did.
It's so funny. Everything feels so long ago, right, No,
with COVID. It was before COVID, but I just had
a little role with Macy Gray and it was a fun. Um.

(00:44):
It's a thriller, So I haven't I haven't seen the
final uh product of it, but I'm excited. And then
are there certain phobias in the film? Is it about
people having different phobias or what's the premise? Um? Yeah,
it's it's definitely about like people and phobias and like

(01:05):
things that basically everyone's phobia that they have kind of
comes to life. Oh got it? That is pretty crazy.
So it can kind of connect with everyone in a way,
which begs the question, do you have a phobia? What
is my phobia? I just like, I don't like rats.
I'm not a phobia. I'm not I have a rat phobia.

(01:28):
I think I feel like that's a big phobia. Like everyone, Yeah,
that's not a good one. I like, freak out, lose
all my coolness and toness at that point. Charlotte, you're
also guest judging on the true TV show Fast Foodies.
I like, I like that title. I haven't seen it yet.
How does it work? So it's basically a show about
a fast food item that they basically have to make,

(01:52):
like four mat So they obvious used me for like
the Carl's Junior burger, and we got to do um.
We got to make It's like a Gore may Way.
So it was really exciting and it was just fun,
Like all the chefs were really cool, a bunch of
Top Chef and Iron Chef people, and it was just
a fun thing. And I've been wanting to do something

(02:13):
in that space for a long time. I love watching
like the Food Channel. It was fun. Those are fun,
Those are fun shows that that's a cool concept. Right there,
and you're you're also part of the horror remake of
Fantasy Island, which just received a bunch of Razzy nominations,
which ends up getting a lot of attention. Why do
you think people um aren't connecting with the horror version

(02:34):
of the Fantasy Island Fantasy Island version or did it
didn't have to do with a genre flip? What you
think was the your take on the film? I really
I really enjoyed that film. I got to work with
Jeff Balbo and um, yeah it was a fun, fun cast.
But I think a lot of people are thinking, oh,
Fantasy Island, it's probably gonna be this like you know,

(02:56):
so be kind of yeah like the show, like like
the show a horror thriller. Um. But yeah, I got
to be in Fiji for like three weeks, so I
wasn't awesome. Yeah, yeah, I can't beat that. Well, let's
talk about you teaming up with the fitness accessory company
bala Is That is that you pronounced it? This is

(03:17):
what I'm all decked out in. Yeah, so I thought
you were just rocking chunky bracelets. I need to wear
them so I could like see what there actually are.
So I'm Active and UM I got to collaborate with
um this amazing team. UM it's called Natalie who was

(03:39):
behind it. And I found this product kind of right
when they came out, and then they started on Shark
Tank and they just kind of during COVID like took
off like crazy. Because no one could go to the gym.
It was a lot of these at home workouts. So
for me, I just levitated to wearing these everywhere. I

(03:59):
mean I got photographed leaving the grocery store wearing these.
And so we were always kind of back and forth.
We really wanted to work together and find and find
some kind of way. So we actually were able to
shoot a campaign during kind of lockdown, and you know,
we got tested and made it and it was super nice.
And and what are those on your do? They are?
They like little weights? Weights? Got it? So you're moving

(04:22):
around doing your own business, but you're kind of lifting
weights without knowing it. YEA, yeah, these are good for you. You,
I mean, I know you like to like to get
in there, so like like during the day if you
just want to feel like you know, yeah you're doing something. Sure, yeah,
you don't have time to get to the gym. I
think it's great for anyone who works in an office
or things like that. But but these really helped me

(04:42):
this year when I was at home, you know, going
on my walks, I didn't know plodes, my trampoline, all
the things. Even if you talk a lot with your hands,
it could be a bit of work. If you sign language,

have to send you a I'm down with that. What
