Once again, thank you for joining me for another brand

we're actually going to get into her career, the auditioning
(00:47):

which is absolutely astounding again for somebody at such a
young age, and some new projects that she's got coming out.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Love your minds, with all of the y you do,
with all of this, Sorry to all the day. I
just don't know where they.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
There all right, Katrina, thank you so much for being
here on the All Bets Are Off Podcast. I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Oh it's my pleasure.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I feel like we've been trying to work this out
for so long, so it's really cool that we get
to sit down and actually have a conversation.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
So, yeah, you've got some tenacity, I'll give you that.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
So I guess I want to start way back at
the beginning. So how old were you when you first
showed any interest in any kind of acting or comedy
or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Oh well, I don't remember this, but my parents tell
me that my first sentence was Daddy, I want to
be on TV.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
So I'd say it was always in there, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I'd say so. Now, so how does that even start?
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Like?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
What even were you just like naturally funny and everybody
was just kind of like did you ever think about
or did you like actually just want to audition for things?
How does that even start?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Well, I'm from San Diego, so I would do a
lot of local shows, any kind of performance. I could
do singing, dancing, any kind of entertaining. And we have
a big military presence in San Diego, and so I
would perform in USO shows like for all of the
service men and women. So I went around the world
(02:52):
touring with Bob Hope when I was a little kid.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Wow back in the day.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
And then a desert storm happened, and so I went
all over the world entertaining big, big audiences of our troops.
And I guess that's when my parents were kind of like, Okay,
we guess she's serious. We guess she really likes this
whole entertaining thing. I guess we'll kind of let her audition.
So they made me a deal that if I kept
(03:17):
up really good grades that they would help me go
to auditions and we'll first get an agent then go
on auditions. Because you know, I was a little kid.
I was like seven. I couldn't drive myself to LA.
So luckily, with their support, I was able to kind
(03:37):
of get started in the business.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I mean, Bob Hope, that's huge to be doing that
at such a young age. You must have learned a
lot or did you not even really care or know
who he was at that point?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Well, I mean.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I kind of knew, but not really right, I didn't
really appreciate who he was. And what a legend, what
a legend it was to have, you know, right, they're
mentoring me.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
It was kind of amazing.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I didn't really appreciate it as much as I do now,
but I did see that he was something special.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Now, were you always just kind of like a natural comedian?
I think so, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Would say it was.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I'll say that I was definitely a prankster, a jokester.
I definitely always loved it to get a laugh. I
love the element of surprise. But I would say that
it was very much nurtured on all that.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, okay, so that's a good segue, because I want
to know what the audition process was like to get
onto all that. So you got to kind of run
us through that one.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Okay, Well, I went on.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I would say maybe seven auditions, quite a few. The
first call said they want some kids who can do comedy,
and the audition is going to be comedy based, and
you're going to be expected to do some ad libs,
do some characters, do some voices, do some impressions if
(05:07):
you can, and bring a short comedic monologue. So luckily
I had been in an acting class that was doing
all sorts of characters and ad libs, so it was
like perfect timing. I was in the right place, right time,
and it just so happened that one of my classmates
(05:30):
was their auditioning and we were in the same group,
and we had already rehearsed together, like we had already
practiced together.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
It was like.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Right place, right time. It was like the heavens were
kind of like shining down on me. It was the
most good fortune ever that you could ask for at
an audition. So I did really well. He did very well.
We both made it a few more rounds after doing
all of these sketches, well they weren't written yet, but
(06:01):
they were sort of like sketches that they threw us
into and then we had to just sort of act
our way out. And then after maybe five auditions, I
didn't hear anything, and I was so devastated.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
And then three months goes by and they're like, oh,
we want you to come back.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I'm like, what, You're not done with this yet, okay, okay.
So then I went back for auditions six and seven,
and I remember it was down by Universal Studios Hollywood
in the Texico building is all like what looked like
a hundred story building, and then apparently they had gone
(06:48):
all over the country scouting for other kids, but they
started in La so I was one of the first chosen,
and after they went and saw everybody else, they wanted
to then call me back in and say it always
still like her, Is it going to work? Or did
we find better out there?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Right?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Luckily I was a go and they did take hits
from all over the country, all ages, all shapes, sizes, colors,
all different backgrounds, and all different locations.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
So you mentioned that you were in acting class at
the time, So is that where you realized that you
were really good at impressions? Was acting class?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
I think? So that had to be it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
It was sort of like there's this comedy troop called
the Groundlings, yep, and they do a bunch of ad
lib comedy situations.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
That's sort of what my class was like.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
And I mean I just sort of stumbled upon it
and then I really liked it. So imagine my surprise
when they're actually auditioning some kids to do comedies and
impressions and all of these kinds of sketches.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I had no idea that was even in alle.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Now, when you do get that final call saying that
you made it for all that, how old are you
ten ten years old? Wow, So you probably had no
idea even as it was happening how big this was
actually going to be.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Oh, we didn't have any idea until like the second year.
First we did all of this. They cast people from
all over the country, and it takes maybe I don't know,
maybe six months from the time I have the first
audition to the time we're actually finished filming the first episode.
So we just did one pilot episode. We all go
(08:35):
to Florida, we all hang out at Universal Studios in Orlando,
and we only filmed for a week because we wanted
to do one episode because this was kind of like
an experiment. No show had ever been made like this
at the time. There's no show with kids doing different characters,
(08:56):
doing sketch comedy, and there was no show that had
musical guests for kids.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
So this was sort of the first of its kind
and experiment, if you will.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So then they made the pilot episode and they had
a bunch of test audiences and they didn't quite know
where to put it because some of the humor was younger,
some of the humor was older. Is it for younger kids?
Is it for older kids? And then they kind of realized, well,
actually it did well with a bunch of age ranges,
so they said the target age was seven to eighteen,
(09:31):
and then actually, the younger kids can watch it, the
older kids can watch it, the parents can watch it.
There's a few jokes in there, like I played Ross Perout.
Kids don't know who Ross Perot is, right, but the
parents sure did.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
So they kind of did a.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Good job of making this comedy available for all ages.
And after they did all of these test showings and
it did very well, they're like, Okay, we think we
will take you guys back and then film the first season.
So it took a very long time for all of that,
from day one, all those auditions, filming the first episode,
(10:09):
testing it, getting it approved, and then actually filming the
first season. So we filmed the first season in Orlando
at Universal Studios Florida.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
They moved us out.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
There and it was amazing because as a kid, I'm
working every single day at a theme park, so for
my lunch break, like I'm going on rides. It was amazing.
It's like a kid's dream. Plus I'm at Nickelodeon Studios,
like the epicenter of everything fun and cool, so It
(10:40):
was an incredible experience, but it didn't air until we
were finished filming the first season.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
It took a very long time to hit the air.
So we've already gone.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Home, and I'm back in school doing normal things, living
my life, not thinking really anything of this, not thinking
it's gonna, you know, turn into anything. It was just
this amazing experience I had, not really realizing that anyone's
really going to see it at some cable show. And
then after the first season it sort of kind of
(11:12):
blew up and became this thing, and then everyone everywhere
is recognizing me can't go to the spaghetti factory now
like a girl Scout Troop saying, oh my god, I
like your scenes, and I was like, oh, this is
very surreal.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
So yeah, it went from like having this amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Sort of hobby situation to turning into something big, and
I don't think any of us could have expected that.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
No, did anybody ever make the comparison before where you
guys were kind of like in Living Color, But for
kids it was like, yes, yes, and I think that's that.
I mean, when I was younger, that kind of appealed
to me because I also watched in Living Color, so
it was. It was cool to see that, like almost
like a crossover, you know what I mean. Now, was
(12:00):
it like fast friends with everybody on set because you
guys were kids in a theme park or was it
kind of like a weird awkward situation at first?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Well, I would say that everyone was very friendly, but
I was the baby, So I would say they had
a lot more fun than I did because you know,
a lot of them were old enough to drive.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah, and you know, like the boys were.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Old enough to drive, right, like Josh I Believe was sixteen,
and then kel was probably sixteen seventeen, Keenan was probably
like seventeen eighteen, Lori Beth was eighteen, So they were,
you know, much older than I was. Right, I'm a baby,
I'm a kid, so they don't really want to hang
out with me. They were nice and all, but like
(12:49):
you know, they kind of want to do their own thing.
The girls were a little more my age. Angelique and
Alisa they were like, you know, two three years older
than me, so I saw them a little more.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
But I would say everyone got along very well.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
We were kind of like one big awkward family that
likes to clown each other. But I would say that
the older kids had more opportunity to hang out and
be a little closer. They were, you know, they had
a little more freedom, They were a little able, they
were able to just do more than I was. You know,
I was the baby. So everyone was close. But I
(13:28):
would say some of the older kids probably had more fun.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
So what would you say as far as that time period,
what were some of your favorite your personal favorite skits
that you were involved in.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
There was one that I only did a couple times,
but I really love this character.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
She was called the Little Pansy m h.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
And she was like this, like a girl Scout in
this pink outfit, the hat, the shirt with the little patches,
and she would sell Girl Scout cookies basically, but she
called them like, you know, the Little Pansy cookies. She
was crazy and she would not take no for an answer.
(14:09):
I mean, that's kind of a theme and a few
of my characters. But the Little Pansy was basically like
a stalker. Right if you didn't buy my cookies, I
would pop out of your oven. I'm breaking in your house,
like I'm popping out of your shower, like I am
in there and I'm in your face.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Till you buy these cookies. So I don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I thought that was really clever and cute and funny
and fun and I really loved that one.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Now, when you were on all that, is it true
that you were also doing on the side, you were
doing stand up comedy? Yes, So that's mind blowing to
me because you were so young. So is this at
the laugh Factory that this is happening.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Yes, it is.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
And how old are you?
Speaker 1 (14:53):
I want to say the first time, I was probably
about ten, Oh my god. So it was after I
filmed the well, about the time we filmed the first season.
After the first season, I came back and they do
a comedy camp for kids every summer, and I mean,
(15:14):
can't just get in. You have to like audition, They
have to approve you, and then they sort of nurture
your talent and teach you how to grow with some
of the industry best and some of my co stars
were actually also in it, not at the same time
as me, but different times throughout the years.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Angelique I know for sure did it.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
But I was performing there after the first season, and
I called the producers from all that from Nickelodeon to
come watch me and I'm performing, doing my act, and
I go and, by the way, check out this girl.
She's really talented. And it was this young, cute little
thing doing a routine about having a pimple that she
couldn't pop inside her nose, and.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Oh, she's really funny. You should check her out.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
And it was a Manda Oh wow. And they're like,
oh my god, she is amazing.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
She's great. And then they hired her and she replaced me.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Oh my god. Really, hey basically.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Hired my own replacement. So that was dumb.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
So if you could go back, no, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
No, you know, she was so talented. I mean, they'd
have probably found her anyway.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Oh that's that's wild. Now how long did you continue
to do just stand up comedy?
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I did it until I was in college, probably late teens,
and then once I had gone through puberty and became
a little older, I felt like it was a little
more difficult. I felt like, once you were kind of
like a hot young girl, nobody wanted to laugh at you.
I feel like they don't want to laugh at you anymore.
(16:53):
It's not the same.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So how many how long did you did you stay
with all that?
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Like?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
How old were you when you wrapped up?
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I was about sixteen.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Sixteen. Wow, that's a long time to be and to
have that kind of success so young. So what advice
would you now go back and give to your younger
self about that time period, if you could.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I want to tell my young self self, do all
of it, Go to all the parties, go to all
the events, do all the interviews, take all the photos,
go on all the trips, and thank god that social
media isn't invented yet.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Would you also say, don't hire your own replacement?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
You know, No, I feel like that was just sort
of meant to be. I'll just let it happen.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Now, as far as you know, child actors now and
you know, same category Nickelodeon and all that stuff, what
advice would you give to the child actors now? Would
it be the same as the advice that you just
said you would give to your younger self, Because, like
you mentioned, things have changed cell phones and social media
and stuff. So what would you tell them?
Speaker 3 (18:11):
No, my advice would not be the same.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I would not say take all the photos, go on
all the trips, do all the things. No, no, no, no, no. Now,
I would tell young actors.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
To take a breath.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I would say, now things are everywhere and everything is
in your face, and instead of doing all of the
things that I would have told myself, I would tell
this generation take a breath, definitely, breathe it all in,
feel it all, and take some time away from all
of the things, right because now social media is everywhere.
(18:49):
Media is everywhere. If you do something wrong, everyone will
see it. So I would say, that's okay, that's part
for the course. Give yourself a break, break and learn
from everything that you do. Enjoy it all and learn
from it.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Well, with that being said, did you for a while
after all that and everything with you? Did you keep
up on the product and what was going on or
did you just distance from it?
Speaker 3 (19:17):
No? I was.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I was in college, so I finished the show at
like fifteen sixteen, and I went straight into college. So
I just kept myself busy with that and I felt very,
very far removed from it. So eventually, after the show
found some success in Florida, they moved us to film
(19:42):
in La So we moved all of our family everybody
back from Florida back for me, which was home to La.
We filmed at Paramount and then we filmed at Sunset Studios.
They built us our own studio on Sunset at the time. Yeah,
so that's up in La. I from San Diego. I
was going to college in Orange County, so you know,
(20:05):
LA's at peer.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
I'm from down here.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
I'm sort of in the middle now, so I'm maybe
an hour and a half, maybe two hours away from
Hall Hollywood from all of that.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
So even though it's.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Not that far, I felt very far removed. I didn't
feel I didn't really keep up with it that much. Right,
it would be much easier to keep up with it now.
I can just see what's everybody doing on Instagram or
what are they doing on TikTok, Like it's so easy now.
I would have had to have made a much, much
bigger effort to stay sort of in the loop. And
I was kind of just loving my new life, which
(20:39):
was being normal for once going to college. I looked young.
I looked kind of like Doogie Howser. I looked like
a little kid in there. So it was a little silly.
It was a little funny, but it was my first
time being normal, right. It was the first time being
in a regular classroom. I hadn't been in one since
I was.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Ten. Yeah, I missed all of that.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
So this was my first chance to be kind of
normal and be with peers or people my own age,
doing normal, regular things that people do. And I really
really was I was just loving it, and I look
back at it as some of the best times in
my life because it was so easy.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
I was free.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I didn't have a job, I didn't have bills, I
didn't have anything to worry about. This was like the
first time in my life that I had nothing to
worry about. So I was really, really, really soaking that
all up and kind of living my best life.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Wow, that's incredible. And now did you see a change
or anything like that in your life with the resurgence
of all that, because obviously it started hitting like Paramount
Plus and Netflix and things like that. So did that
start coming back around or did that kind of fly
under the radar two as well?
Speaker 1 (21:54):
No, because I got my first residual checks ever noticed,
So everyone, you just go ahead and download.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Thank you. I'm fair fair so because oh sorry, oh
go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Go ahead.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I was just gonna say, nobody really knows this, but
back in the day, we never got residuals, so we
would have these shows aired for thirty years. And when
it first started, there was just one channel, just regular Nickelodeon,
and it was on Saturday night and that's it. But
then over the years, with all these cable and satellite
networks and all of these things, then there's more and
(22:31):
more and more channels. There's like five different Nickelodeons. They
had a Nick Nineties Nick channel for a while, they
had the Nineties or all that as a channel for
a while. So they are showing these shows for many,
many years all the time, and we don't see anything
from that, right, Nobody gets a dime from that. And
then streaming happens, and that changes the game because when
(22:55):
we signed these original contracts thirty years ago, streaming didn't exist,
so there was no way to even negotiate to get
residuals or not. So when streaming happened, the union had
contracts with all of these things, and so I started
getting random checks in the mail and it was really amazing.
(23:15):
So I would say, you know, they brought back all
that for the newer seasons. I would say, that's sort
of awoken. The people who liked it back in the day,
who watched my episodes and then they started streaming them,
downloading them, watching them at home, showing them to their
kids nowadays. And it was wonderful for two reasons. One
(23:38):
it was very nostalgic, and two it was financially beneficial.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Well, I mean, staying on that topic of financially beneficial,
did you start also getting asked to do like comic
con appearances and things like that.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Afterwards A little bit. Yes, I do like those, but
I don't do very many. I'll do one every couple
of years. It's kind of like I didn't go to
high school, right, I didn't have a regular school life,
So I would say it's the closest thing that I
(24:12):
could think of from what I've seen to like high
school reunion.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
So like every.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Every five years, I'll go and I'll do what I
consider to be my high school reunion, hang out with
all the homies.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Ketchup, how you doing? Wow? You all had kids?
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Dang, you guys have been busy, bunny rabbits.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
That's great, But.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I enjoy the events, but I don't do them that often.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Okay, okay, that's fair. So this next thing, I just
have to make quick mention of it so that my
listeners don't yell at me for not bringing it up.
But when the documentary hit quiet on the set, was
that like shocking stuff to you because you had such
a positive experience where you're just like completely like blindsided
by those things.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Yes, actually.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
That whole thing was very, very much. I was blindsided.
I had no idea what that was going to be about.
I was misled. I was told that it is a
documentary about growing up on Nickelodeon, and one of my
co stars warned me and said, I don't think it's
what you think. I think it's like a kill piece
(25:23):
about Nickelodeon. So at one point I pulled out and
I said, listen, I'm not gonna talk ill of Nickelodeon.
I'm not going to say ill of anyone that I
worked with because I had a good experience, and I'm
not going to say anything bad because nothing bad happened
to me. They said, oh no, no, it's a documentary.
We're just telling the truth. We're just telling your experience.
(25:44):
And they're like, we're not going to say anything that
isn't ever court documented. We're not going to accuse any
one of anything that hasn't been proven in court. We're
not going to do anything like that. You're like, man,
we have your stage manager, Virgil. Virgil was like a
father to me because he was my dad on set
who took care of me for, you know, my whole childhood. Right,
(26:08):
So when they said that I trusted it, I was like, Okay,
it's good enough for Virgil. I'm sure it's fine. So
I made sure that we filmed on the same day.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
I got to see him.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
It was like catching up with my uncle that I
hadn't seen in years. And then I saw the first
preview and I filled all of the blood drain out
of my face. Oh that I was shocked. So they
didn't even tell me the name of this show until
(26:42):
the day it came out. They didn't tell me who
was in it, they didn't tell me what was mentioned.
They didn't tell me anything. So it was a complete surprise,
and I was shocked just like everybody else. And I
can't say a little bit of my childhood was ruined.
People tell me, oh, that document kind of you know,
(27:02):
it hurt and it ruined a little bit of my childhood.
I'm like, I understand that, but also I'm glad I
did it because I had a good experience, and people
needed to hear about that. I mean, there are a
few things that you know weren't ideal, but it's the
entertainment industry. They're going to critique you, and they're going
(27:23):
to talk about how you look, and they're going to
talk about what size you are, and they're going to
talk about what role you fit in. But I feel
like that's just the nature of the game.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
I totally understand that, and I again, I didn't want
to like get too deep into it, but I just
felt like we had to at least make mention that
it came out and that you were involved in it.
So when you did finally like watch the whole thing back,
were you satisfied with your role so to speak?
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Role?
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Yeah, I mean it was fine. I said a lot
of good things that never made it, but oh wow, okay,
you know that I guess.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Didn't fit they were you know, I wasn't in it
that much. I'm kind of just in the beginning explaining
the history of the show, the history of the.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Time period, and then a little bit about my experience.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
But you know, I didn't really have any of those
bad experiences, so they could only use me so much.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, right right. Well, so this next thing that we're
going to do here is a quick little thing and
it's more lighthearted than this seriousness that I just brought
to the table here. So this is our lightning round
where I'm just going to ask you just a bunch
of random questions that have nothing to do with anything,
and it's just for our viewers to get to know
you a little bit better. All right, all right, So
first question is do you prefer dessert or dinner?
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Dessert?
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Rock and roll or pop pop? That one hurt me
a little, I know.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I'm so sorry, Bretteysters forever.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
All right? All right? How about New York or Chicago
style pizza?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Gotta go New York.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
You redeemed with me on that one. How about do
we prefer a cabin in the woods or a beach house?
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Oh? I guess it depends on what time of year.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I will take the cabin in the winter, and I'll
take the beach house in the summer. Right if there's snow,
i gotta go cabin.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
All right, that's fair. I'll take that answer. You're the
first one that ever actually took both.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
I'm greedy like that.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
So what is your favorite snack.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Oh my gosh, I like all of them.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So the answer is, yes, give.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
It to me. Well, is in and out considered a snack?
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I mean I would say for some people.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Absolutely, an I guess I'm cheating these child stars not
to be trused.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Oh my god, that was a good answer. How about
back then and now your your favorite TV shows?
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Oh man? Okay, Well.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Let's remember I was like a young girl, like a
teenage girl.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
For part of it.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
I was obsessed with sequest and they filmed next door,
Oh well, at the sound stage next door, and so
I went and snuck in there and I used to
watch the man who was on the posters in my wall.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
And maybe that's where they came up with a little pansy, right,
I was a little stalker.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Then they're like, aha, we can use it.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Based on true events.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Well.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Oh, also, I was obsessed with oh shoot, the show
tim the Toolman, Taylor, Oh home Improvement, Yeah, home improvement.
And I had this huge crush on Jonathan Taylor Thomas
and that's my favorite show because I thought we were
gonna get married. And then I found out that he
(31:17):
watched all that and he invited me to go see
his show.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Oh wow, this is it. It's happening. I was like,
I manifested this. It is happening. It is meant to be.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
We are going to have little midget babies because we
were both very small.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
I'm like, it's gonna.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Be amazing, Hollywood royalties about to happen. Let me tell you,
it's very disappointing. Babies did not happen. Okay, did not happen?
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Well, I mean we got to know what happened when
you got to the set. Now did you propose?
Speaker 1 (31:56):
You know what I thought I was laying on the charm,
did not get it.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
It just went he It was a freaking disaster. Okay.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
So I get there and he's doing some skit and
he's dressed up like Shakespeare.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Uh huh.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
He's like like he's got this collared, ruffled thing and
he looks like he's from the I don't know, early
nineteen hundreds. I said to him, Oh, I have always
considered myself to be a bit of a thespian, a
theater goer. Right, you're performing, you're in your outfit. I'm
(32:33):
coming to see your performance. He thought, I said I
was a lesbian.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Oh my good you can't write this.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
He did not theme to like my charms at that point.
He was like, oh, Dade, okay, well I threw a
party for you.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Actually we're having an after party. Please come to the
green room, blah blah blah blah blah. And I was like,
I blew it. I had one chance and I blew it.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
And I'm like, but but that's not what I said.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Ah, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah, so that was a nightmare.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
So is he at this point dating Danielle Fisher from
Boy Meets World and you're you're trying to like squeeze
in between here, you know.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
I don't think so. I think I got in there
before that. We were pretty young. But uh, I would
have you know, you know, I know how to weasel
up in there.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
You know, I would have, Well, again, the skit the Stalker.
So I love it. That's a great story, that is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Talk favorite shows nowadays, I would say anything involving espionage.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
So nothing's changed, basically, What about growing up? Did you
have a favorite cartoon?
Speaker 1 (34:04):
I was pretty loyal to the Nickelodeon cartoons. Okay, I
liked Rocco's Modern Life. I liked rug Rats.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
I liked the classics, and then watching them now you
realize how geared towards adult humor they really were.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Right, You're like, wait a minute, really, Oh, I see you?
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Well, okay, so what about a current favorite movie?
Speaker 3 (34:31):
Hmmm, the tough one.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Well, I would probably say, and this isn't a current
current one. But my favorite movie I have two of them.
One of them is The Devil Wars Prada, Okay, because
I read the book and I loved it, and they
just turned it into a musical and I can't wait
to go see it. I guess they made they put
(34:59):
in some music.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Elton john should be amazing. Vanessa Williams is starring on
it in London right now. I got to figure out
a way to get myself to London so I could
go see it. But my favorite movie of all times
is not a new one. It's not a current one.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
It is this is a little embarrassing, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie
Lee Curtis. A favorite movie of all times is the
movie True Lies.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Wow. I did not see that coming.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
I know it's so funny, but there's a reason behind it.
I was a naughty girl.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
We'll say.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Maybe I don't know how that one maybe twelve, I
was misbehaving. My parents grounded me for a month. They
took away my stereo. I wasn't allowed to do anything,
like I could do chores and that's it. Like I
couldn't watch TV, I couldn't go anywhere. I couldn't do anything,
like I didn't have a cell phone back then.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
I have videos like what could they take away? Oh
my stereo? Okay, do you know how old that sounds?
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Yes, yes, I hear myself, but that's what happened.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
They took away my stereo.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Oh my god, my multi disc chart changer with speakers.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Anyway, they took that away.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
And I'm just suffering because now weeks have gone by
and they're like, Okay, she's kind of a good kid.
She's not that bad. Maybe we were a little over
zealous with a month of this grounding, right, So my
dad takes me to the movies and he's like, we're
gonna go see something rated R. Don't tell your mom,
(36:39):
and you're still in trouble, so really, don't tell your mom. Okay,
let's go, let's go get and we went and we
went to see True Lies and it was rated R.
And I loved it. It was funny, it was action.
I was loving all of the things. And then a
week later, my mom takes pity on me and she goes,
(37:02):
you know, you're a good kid. I'm gonna take you
to the movies. And I said, really, thanks mom, and
she goes, you know, I really like that armold short snaker.
Speaker 3 (37:15):
Let's go see his show. And I go, oh, really, yeah,
let's go see his show and she goes, don't tell
your dad.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
So mom, parents took me to see this movie and
they said, don't tell your mom, don't tell your dad,
and nobody knew. They both snuck me in to see
this rateed arm movie and said don't tell the other one.
And then ten years later, I'm doing an interview with
Radio Disney and I tell them that story, and my
(37:46):
parents are both there and they look at each other
and then they look.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
At me like, I didn't tell mom. I didn't tell them.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
That's great, that is, and that's why.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
That is my favorite movie.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
I love that. Oh my god, I love that. All right.
So here is your last lightning round question. And I
think I know the answer, but I'm gonna ask it anyway.
Do you prefer horror movies or romantic comedies.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yeah, these my answers are kind of embarrassing. Okay, I
gotta go romantic comedy. I'm a simp. It's like, listen,
this is who I am. I'm not proud of it. Okay,
it is what it is. I'm scared of horror films.
I'm a screamer. I jump, I scream, I freak out.
I'm one of those people that I like to watch
videos of people getting scared, Like I like to watch
(38:41):
a video where someone's hanking the horn and the old
lady throws the gallon of milk, And that's me. I'm
that old lady throwing the milk. Okay, So no, I
can't watch horror films. I will ruin it for everybody.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
All right, that's fair. I mean again that that hurt
me a little, just like the rock and roll question.
But so before I get you out of here, it
just got two final things for you. First one is
going to be so what's next for you? I hear,
I don't know if it's true, so you can confirm
this or not. Are you making movies again? Are you
(39:16):
back on TV? What's going on with that.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Back?
Speaker 3 (39:19):
Baby?
Speaker 2 (39:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
I did a movie. It is sort of like a
Western with a lot of action. I play a saloon girl,
which is.
Speaker 3 (39:36):
It's a lady who makes a lot of money doing
a lot of things she shouldn't be doing.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Okay, you know, there.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Weren't that many options for these ladies back in the day.
It's in the eighteen nineties, and I'm a wise, cracking,
funny chick, but super hot.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
The movie is called Black Creek.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
It is out this year, and I I have a
role in Seth Rogan's new show for Apple TV called
The Studio.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
Is that out already?
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Not yet?
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
I play the hot flight attendant on the private jet.
It's like art imitating life because I love to.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Fly private jets. That's what I do.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
So you know, typecasting, if you will keep an eye
out for that, it's awesome.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
It's funny show ever, all right.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
Very cool. And now with those two things being said,
let's get everybody to who doesn't already plug your social
media so they can follow you see what's going on
with that movie, that show. I'm glad to hear that
you're back in acting. And also, if you happen to
do one of your reunion comic cons, we want them
(40:51):
to be able to follow you and know where they
could meet you. So if you want to just plug all.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
That, yes, plug all that. I see what you did there.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
Yeah that was clever.
Speaker 3 (41:02):
Well you can see the name right there, Katrina A. Johnson.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
That is my handle for all of the socials at
Katrina A.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
Johnson.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
I'm mostly Instagram because I'm old, so like that's my jam,
but also have the Tiki Taki.
Speaker 3 (41:20):
I have all the things. I kind of I'm old,
so you can catch me on instead the most.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
I kind of like, I like tiki talkis.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
Right because it's for like young cool people. I'm not
that young and I'm not that cool. I have one.
I try, I dabble, but you know, you know I'm
going to be honest my lane.
Speaker 2 (41:42):
I'm with you. I have one as well. I have
no idea how it works. I don't know what I'm
doing with it. I was the last person on earth
to get one. And now like, I literally just take
clips of me either wrestling or performing music and just
put them on there, and people are like, you know,
you could do this, that and the other. In my
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (41:57):
You're like, well, you could do it for me and.
Speaker 2 (41:59):
That'd be cool, right right, don't explain it to me,
just do it right, please, Well, thank you so much
for being here. This was a lot of fun, and
I hope that things work out with you and Jonathan
Taylor Thomas eventually.

today I'm excited to say that my guest is Katrina
Johnson from the mega hit TV show All That. Everybody
loved that show in the nineties, Am I right? So
we're actually going to get into her career, the auditioning
(00:47):
process for All That, how she got started doing stand
up comedy at such a young age, working with Bob Hope,
which is absolutely astounding again for somebody at such a
young age, and some new projects that she's got coming out.
So I'm not going to waste any time and spoil
anything for you, but I do want to do this
because I've always wanted to do this, So bear with me.
(01:07):
Ready fresh out the box, stop look and watch, ready
yet get set. It's all that.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Love your minds, with all of the y you do,
with all of this, Sorry to all the day. I
just don't know where they.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
There all right, Katrina, thank you so much for being
here on the All Bets Are Off Podcast. I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Oh it's my pleasure.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I feel like we've been trying to work this out
for so long, so it's really cool that we get
to sit down and actually have a conversation.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
So, yeah, you've got some tenacity, I'll give you that.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
So I guess I want to start way back at
the beginning. So how old were you when you first
showed any interest in any kind of acting or comedy
or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Oh well, I don't remember this, but my parents tell
me that my first sentence was Daddy, I want to
be on TV.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
So I'd say it was always in there, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I'd say so. Now, so how does that even start?
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Like?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
What even were you just like naturally funny and everybody
was just kind of like did you ever think about
or did you like actually just want to audition for things?
How does that even start?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Well, I'm from San Diego, so I would do a
lot of local shows, any kind of performance. I could
do singing, dancing, any kind of entertaining. And we have
a big military presence in San Diego, and so I
would perform in USO shows like for all of the
service men and women. So I went around the world
(02:52):
touring with Bob Hope when I was a little kid.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Wow back in the day.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
And then a desert storm happened, and so I went
all over the world entertaining big, big audiences of our troops.
And I guess that's when my parents were kind of like, Okay,
we guess she's serious. We guess she really likes this
whole entertaining thing. I guess we'll kind of let her audition.
So they made me a deal that if I kept
(03:17):
up really good grades that they would help me go
to auditions and we'll first get an agent then go
on auditions. Because you know, I was a little kid.
I was like seven. I couldn't drive myself to LA.
So luckily, with their support, I was able to kind
(03:37):
of get started in the business.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I mean, Bob Hope, that's huge to be doing that
at such a young age. You must have learned a
lot or did you not even really care or know
who he was at that point?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Well, I mean.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I kind of knew, but not really right, I didn't
really appreciate who he was. And what a legend, what
a legend it was to have, you know, right, they're
mentoring me.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
It was kind of amazing.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I didn't really appreciate it as much as I do now,
but I did see that he was something special.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Now, were you always just kind of like a natural comedian?
I think so, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Would say it was.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I'll say that I was definitely a prankster, a jokester.
I definitely always loved it to get a laugh. I
love the element of surprise. But I would say that
it was very much nurtured on all that.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, okay, so that's a good segue, because I want
to know what the audition process was like to get
onto all that. So you got to kind of run
us through that one.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Okay, Well, I went on.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I would say maybe seven auditions, quite a few. The
first call said they want some kids who can do comedy,
and the audition is going to be comedy based, and
you're going to be expected to do some ad libs,
do some characters, do some voices, do some impressions if
(05:07):
you can, and bring a short comedic monologue. So luckily
I had been in an acting class that was doing
all sorts of characters and ad libs, so it was
like perfect timing. I was in the right place, right time,
and it just so happened that one of my classmates
(05:30):
was their auditioning and we were in the same group,
and we had already rehearsed together, like we had already
practiced together.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
It was like.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Right place, right time. It was like the heavens were
kind of like shining down on me. It was the
most good fortune ever that you could ask for at
an audition. So I did really well. He did very well.
We both made it a few more rounds after doing
all of these sketches, well they weren't written yet, but
(06:01):
they were sort of like sketches that they threw us
into and then we had to just sort of act
our way out. And then after maybe five auditions, I
didn't hear anything, and I was so devastated.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
And then three months goes by and they're like, oh,
we want you to come back.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I'm like, what, You're not done with this yet, okay, okay.
So then I went back for auditions six and seven,
and I remember it was down by Universal Studios Hollywood
in the Texico building is all like what looked like
a hundred story building, and then apparently they had gone
(06:48):
all over the country scouting for other kids, but they
started in La so I was one of the first chosen,
and after they went and saw everybody else, they wanted
to then call me back in and say it always
still like her, Is it going to work? Or did
we find better out there?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Right?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Luckily I was a go and they did take hits
from all over the country, all ages, all shapes, sizes, colors,
all different backgrounds, and all different locations.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
So you mentioned that you were in acting class at
the time, So is that where you realized that you
were really good at impressions? Was acting class?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
I think? So that had to be it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
It was sort of like there's this comedy troop called
the Groundlings, yep, and they do a bunch of ad
lib comedy situations.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
That's sort of what my class was like.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
And I mean I just sort of stumbled upon it
and then I really liked it. So imagine my surprise
when they're actually auditioning some kids to do comedies and
impressions and all of these kinds of sketches.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I had no idea that was even in alle.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Now, when you do get that final call saying that
you made it for all that, how old are you
ten ten years old? Wow, So you probably had no
idea even as it was happening how big this was
actually going to be.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Oh, we didn't have any idea until like the second year.
First we did all of this. They cast people from
all over the country, and it takes maybe I don't know,
maybe six months from the time I have the first
audition to the time we're actually finished filming the first episode.
So we just did one pilot episode. We all go
(08:35):
to Florida, we all hang out at Universal Studios in Orlando,
and we only filmed for a week because we wanted
to do one episode because this was kind of like
an experiment. No show had ever been made like this
at the time. There's no show with kids doing different characters,
(08:56):
doing sketch comedy, and there was no show that had
musical guests for kids.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
So this was sort of the first of its kind
and experiment, if you will.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So then they made the pilot episode and they had
a bunch of test audiences and they didn't quite know
where to put it because some of the humor was younger,
some of the humor was older. Is it for younger kids?
Is it for older kids? And then they kind of realized, well,
actually it did well with a bunch of age ranges,
so they said the target age was seven to eighteen,
(09:31):
and then actually, the younger kids can watch it, the
older kids can watch it, the parents can watch it.
There's a few jokes in there, like I played Ross Perout.
Kids don't know who Ross Perot is, right, but the
parents sure did.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
So they kind of did a.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Good job of making this comedy available for all ages.
And after they did all of these test showings and
it did very well, they're like, Okay, we think we
will take you guys back and then film the first season.
So it took a very long time for all of that,
from day one, all those auditions, filming the first episode,
(10:09):
testing it, getting it approved, and then actually filming the
first season. So we filmed the first season in Orlando
at Universal Studios Florida.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
They moved us out.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
There and it was amazing because as a kid, I'm
working every single day at a theme park, so for
my lunch break, like I'm going on rides. It was amazing.
It's like a kid's dream. Plus I'm at Nickelodeon Studios,
like the epicenter of everything fun and cool, so It
(10:40):
was an incredible experience, but it didn't air until we
were finished filming the first season.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
It took a very long time to hit the air.
So we've already gone.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Home, and I'm back in school doing normal things, living
my life, not thinking really anything of this, not thinking
it's gonna, you know, turn into anything. It was just
this amazing experience I had, not really realizing that anyone's
really going to see it at some cable show. And
then after the first season it sort of kind of
(11:12):
blew up and became this thing, and then everyone everywhere
is recognizing me can't go to the spaghetti factory now
like a girl Scout Troop saying, oh my god, I
like your scenes, and I was like, oh, this is
very surreal.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
So yeah, it went from like having this amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Sort of hobby situation to turning into something big, and
I don't think any of us could have expected that.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
No, did anybody ever make the comparison before where you
guys were kind of like in Living Color, But for
kids it was like, yes, yes, and I think that's that.
I mean, when I was younger, that kind of appealed
to me because I also watched in Living Color, so
it was. It was cool to see that, like almost
like a crossover, you know what I mean. Now, was
(12:00):
it like fast friends with everybody on set because you
guys were kids in a theme park or was it
kind of like a weird awkward situation at first?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Well, I would say that everyone was very friendly, but
I was the baby, So I would say they had
a lot more fun than I did because you know,
a lot of them were old enough to drive.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah, and you know, like the boys were.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Old enough to drive, right, like Josh I Believe was sixteen,
and then kel was probably sixteen seventeen, Keenan was probably
like seventeen eighteen, Lori Beth was eighteen, So they were,
you know, much older than I was. Right, I'm a baby,
I'm a kid, so they don't really want to hang
out with me. They were nice and all, but like
(12:49):
you know, they kind of want to do their own thing.
The girls were a little more my age. Angelique and
Alisa they were like, you know, two three years older
than me, so I saw them a little more.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
But I would say everyone got along very well.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
We were kind of like one big awkward family that
likes to clown each other. But I would say that
the older kids had more opportunity to hang out and
be a little closer. They were, you know, they had
a little more freedom, They were a little able, they
were able to just do more than I was. You know,
I was the baby. So everyone was close. But I
(13:28):
would say some of the older kids probably had more fun.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
So what would you say as far as that time period,
what were some of your favorite your personal favorite skits
that you were involved in.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
There was one that I only did a couple times,
but I really love this character.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
She was called the Little Pansy m h.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
And she was like this, like a girl Scout in
this pink outfit, the hat, the shirt with the little patches,
and she would sell Girl Scout cookies basically, but she
called them like, you know, the Little Pansy cookies. She
was crazy and she would not take no for an answer.
(14:09):
I mean, that's kind of a theme and a few
of my characters. But the Little Pansy was basically like
a stalker. Right if you didn't buy my cookies, I
would pop out of your oven. I'm breaking in your house,
like I'm popping out of your shower, like I am
in there and I'm in your face.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Till you buy these cookies. So I don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I thought that was really clever and cute and funny
and fun and I really loved that one.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Now, when you were on all that, is it true
that you were also doing on the side, you were
doing stand up comedy? Yes, So that's mind blowing to
me because you were so young. So is this at
the laugh Factory that this is happening.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
Yes, it is.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
And how old are you?
Speaker 1 (14:53):
I want to say the first time, I was probably
about ten, Oh my god. So it was after I
filmed the well, about the time we filmed the first season.
After the first season, I came back and they do
a comedy camp for kids every summer, and I mean,
(15:14):
can't just get in. You have to like audition, They
have to approve you, and then they sort of nurture
your talent and teach you how to grow with some
of the industry best and some of my co stars
were actually also in it, not at the same time
as me, but different times throughout the years.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Angelique I know for sure did it.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
But I was performing there after the first season, and
I called the producers from all that from Nickelodeon to
come watch me and I'm performing, doing my act, and
I go and, by the way, check out this girl.
She's really talented. And it was this young, cute little
thing doing a routine about having a pimple that she
couldn't pop inside her nose, and.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Oh, she's really funny. You should check her out.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
And it was a Manda Oh wow. And they're like,
oh my god, she is amazing.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
She's great. And then they hired her and she replaced me.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Oh my god. Really, hey basically.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Hired my own replacement. So that was dumb.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
So if you could go back, no, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
No, you know, she was so talented. I mean, they'd
have probably found her anyway.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Oh that's that's wild. Now how long did you continue
to do just stand up comedy?
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I did it until I was in college, probably late teens,
and then once I had gone through puberty and became
a little older, I felt like it was a little
more difficult. I felt like, once you were kind of
like a hot young girl, nobody wanted to laugh at you.
I feel like they don't want to laugh at you anymore.
(16:53):
It's not the same.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So how many how long did you did you stay
with all that?
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Like?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
How old were you when you wrapped up?
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I was about sixteen.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Sixteen. Wow, that's a long time to be and to
have that kind of success so young. So what advice
would you now go back and give to your younger
self about that time period, if you could.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I want to tell my young self self, do all
of it, Go to all the parties, go to all
the events, do all the interviews, take all the photos,
go on all the trips, and thank god that social
media isn't invented yet.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Would you also say, don't hire your own replacement?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
You know, No, I feel like that was just sort
of meant to be. I'll just let it happen.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Now, as far as you know, child actors now and
you know, same category Nickelodeon and all that stuff, what
advice would you give to the child actors now? Would
it be the same as the advice that you just
said you would give to your younger self, Because, like
you mentioned, things have changed cell phones and social media
and stuff. So what would you tell them?
Speaker 3 (18:11):
No, my advice would not be the same.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
I would not say take all the photos, go on
all the trips, do all the things. No, no, no, no, no. Now,
I would tell young actors.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
To take a breath.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I would say, now things are everywhere and everything is
in your face, and instead of doing all of the
things that I would have told myself, I would tell
this generation take a breath, definitely, breathe it all in,
feel it all, and take some time away from all
of the things, right because now social media is everywhere.
(18:49):
Media is everywhere. If you do something wrong, everyone will
see it. So I would say, that's okay, that's part
for the course. Give yourself a break, break and learn
from everything that you do. Enjoy it all and learn
from it.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Well, with that being said, did you for a while
after all that and everything with you? Did you keep
up on the product and what was going on or
did you just distance from it?
Speaker 3 (19:17):
No? I was.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I was in college, so I finished the show at
like fifteen sixteen, and I went straight into college. So
I just kept myself busy with that and I felt very,
very far removed from it. So eventually, after the show
found some success in Florida, they moved us to film
(19:42):
in La So we moved all of our family everybody
back from Florida back for me, which was home to La.
We filmed at Paramount and then we filmed at Sunset Studios.
They built us our own studio on Sunset at the time. Yeah,
so that's up in La. I from San Diego. I
was going to college in Orange County, so you know,
(20:05):
LA's at peer.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
I'm from down here.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
I'm sort of in the middle now, so I'm maybe
an hour and a half, maybe two hours away from
Hall Hollywood from all of that.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
So even though it's.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Not that far, I felt very far removed. I didn't
feel I didn't really keep up with it that much. Right,
it would be much easier to keep up with it now.
I can just see what's everybody doing on Instagram or
what are they doing on TikTok, Like it's so easy now.
I would have had to have made a much, much
bigger effort to stay sort of in the loop. And
I was kind of just loving my new life, which
(20:39):
was being normal for once going to college. I looked young.
I looked kind of like Doogie Howser. I looked like
a little kid in there. So it was a little silly.
It was a little funny, but it was my first
time being normal, right. It was the first time being
in a regular classroom. I hadn't been in one since
I was.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Ten. Yeah, I missed all of that.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
So this was my first chance to be kind of
normal and be with peers or people my own age,
doing normal, regular things that people do. And I really
really was I was just loving it, and I look
back at it as some of the best times in
my life because it was so easy.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
I was free.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I didn't have a job, I didn't have bills, I
didn't have anything to worry about. This was like the
first time in my life that I had nothing to
worry about. So I was really, really, really soaking that
all up and kind of living my best life.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Wow, that's incredible. And now did you see a change
or anything like that in your life with the resurgence
of all that, because obviously it started hitting like Paramount
Plus and Netflix and things like that. So did that
start coming back around or did that kind of fly
under the radar two as well?
Speaker 1 (21:54):
No, because I got my first residual checks ever noticed,
So everyone, you just go ahead and download.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Thank you. I'm fair fair so because oh sorry, oh
go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Go ahead.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I was just gonna say, nobody really knows this, but
back in the day, we never got residuals, so we
would have these shows aired for thirty years. And when
it first started, there was just one channel, just regular Nickelodeon,
and it was on Saturday night and that's it. But
then over the years, with all these cable and satellite
networks and all of these things, then there's more and
(22:31):
more and more channels. There's like five different Nickelodeons. They
had a Nick Nineties Nick channel for a while, they
had the Nineties or all that as a channel for
a while. So they are showing these shows for many,
many years all the time, and we don't see anything
from that, right, Nobody gets a dime from that. And
then streaming happens, and that changes the game because when
(22:55):
we signed these original contracts thirty years ago, streaming didn't exist,
so there was no way to even negotiate to get
residuals or not. So when streaming happened, the union had
contracts with all of these things, and so I started
getting random checks in the mail and it was really amazing.
(23:15):
So I would say, you know, they brought back all
that for the newer seasons. I would say, that's sort
of awoken. The people who liked it back in the day,
who watched my episodes and then they started streaming them,
downloading them, watching them at home, showing them to their
kids nowadays. And it was wonderful for two reasons. One
(23:38):
it was very nostalgic, and two it was financially beneficial.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Well, I mean, staying on that topic of financially beneficial,
did you start also getting asked to do like comic
con appearances and things like that.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Afterwards A little bit. Yes, I do like those, but
I don't do very many. I'll do one every couple
of years. It's kind of like I didn't go to
high school, right, I didn't have a regular school life,
So I would say it's the closest thing that I
(24:12):
could think of from what I've seen to like high
school reunion.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
So like every.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Every five years, I'll go and I'll do what I
consider to be my high school reunion, hang out with
all the homies.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Ketchup, how you doing? Wow? You all had kids?
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Dang, you guys have been busy, bunny rabbits.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
That's great, But.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I enjoy the events, but I don't do them that often.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Okay, okay, that's fair. So this next thing, I just
have to make quick mention of it so that my
listeners don't yell at me for not bringing it up.
But when the documentary hit quiet on the set, was
that like shocking stuff to you because you had such
a positive experience where you're just like completely like blindsided
by those things.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Yes, actually.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
That whole thing was very, very much. I was blindsided.
I had no idea what that was going to be about.
I was misled. I was told that it is a
documentary about growing up on Nickelodeon, and one of my
co stars warned me and said, I don't think it's
what you think. I think it's like a kill piece
(25:23):
about Nickelodeon. So at one point I pulled out and
I said, listen, I'm not gonna talk ill of Nickelodeon.
I'm not going to say ill of anyone that I
worked with because I had a good experience, and I'm
not going to say anything bad because nothing bad happened
to me. They said, oh no, no, it's a documentary.
We're just telling the truth. We're just telling your experience.
(25:44):
And they're like, we're not going to say anything that
isn't ever court documented. We're not going to accuse any
one of anything that hasn't been proven in court. We're
not going to do anything like that. You're like, man,
we have your stage manager, Virgil. Virgil was like a
father to me because he was my dad on set
who took care of me for, you know, my whole childhood. Right,
(26:08):
So when they said that I trusted it, I was like, Okay,
it's good enough for Virgil. I'm sure it's fine. So
I made sure that we filmed on the same day.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
I got to see him.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
It was like catching up with my uncle that I
hadn't seen in years. And then I saw the first
preview and I filled all of the blood drain out
of my face. Oh that I was shocked. So they
didn't even tell me the name of this show until
(26:42):
the day it came out. They didn't tell me who
was in it, they didn't tell me what was mentioned.
They didn't tell me anything. So it was a complete surprise,
and I was shocked just like everybody else. And I
can't say a little bit of my childhood was ruined.
People tell me, oh, that document kind of you know,
(27:02):
it hurt and it ruined a little bit of my childhood.
I'm like, I understand that, but also I'm glad I
did it because I had a good experience, and people
needed to hear about that. I mean, there are a
few things that you know weren't ideal, but it's the
entertainment industry. They're going to critique you, and they're going
(27:23):
to talk about how you look, and they're going to
talk about what size you are, and they're going to
talk about what role you fit in. But I feel
like that's just the nature of the game.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
I totally understand that, and I again, I didn't want
to like get too deep into it, but I just
felt like we had to at least make mention that
it came out and that you were involved in it.
So when you did finally like watch the whole thing back,
were you satisfied with your role so to speak?
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Role?
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Yeah, I mean it was fine. I said a lot
of good things that never made it, but oh wow, okay,
you know that I guess.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Didn't fit they were you know, I wasn't in it
that much. I'm kind of just in the beginning explaining
the history of the show, the history of the.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Time period, and then a little bit about my experience.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
But you know, I didn't really have any of those
bad experiences, so they could only use me so much.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, right right. Well, so this next thing that we're
going to do here is a quick little thing and
it's more lighthearted than this seriousness that I just brought
to the table here. So this is our lightning round
where I'm just going to ask you just a bunch
of random questions that have nothing to do with anything,
and it's just for our viewers to get to know
you a little bit better. All right, all right, So
first question is do you prefer dessert or dinner?
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Dessert?
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Rock and roll or pop pop? That one hurt me
a little, I know.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I'm so sorry, Bretteysters forever.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
All right? All right? How about New York or Chicago
style pizza?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Gotta go New York.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
You redeemed with me on that one. How about do
we prefer a cabin in the woods or a beach house?
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Oh? I guess it depends on what time of year.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I will take the cabin in the winter, and I'll
take the beach house in the summer. Right if there's snow,
i gotta go cabin.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
All right, that's fair. I'll take that answer. You're the
first one that ever actually took both.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
I'm greedy like that.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
So what is your favorite snack.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Oh my gosh, I like all of them.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So the answer is, yes, give.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
It to me. Well, is in and out considered a snack?
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I mean I would say for some people.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Absolutely, an I guess I'm cheating these child stars not
to be trused.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Oh my god, that was a good answer. How about
back then and now your your favorite TV shows?
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Oh man? Okay, Well.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Let's remember I was like a young girl, like a
teenage girl.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
For part of it.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
I was obsessed with sequest and they filmed next door,
Oh well, at the sound stage next door, and so
I went and snuck in there and I used to
watch the man who was on the posters in my wall.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
And maybe that's where they came up with a little pansy, right,
I was a little stalker.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Then they're like, aha, we can use it.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Based on true events.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Well.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Oh, also, I was obsessed with oh shoot, the show
tim the Toolman, Taylor, Oh home Improvement, Yeah, home improvement.
And I had this huge crush on Jonathan Taylor Thomas
and that's my favorite show because I thought we were
gonna get married. And then I found out that he
(31:17):
watched all that and he invited me to go see
his show.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Oh wow, this is it. It's happening. I was like,
I manifested this. It is happening. It is meant to be.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
We are going to have little midget babies because we
were both very small.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
I'm like, it's gonna.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Be amazing, Hollywood royalties about to happen. Let me tell you,
it's very disappointing. Babies did not happen. Okay, did not happen?
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Well, I mean we got to know what happened when
you got to the set. Now did you propose?
Speaker 1 (31:56):
You know what I thought I was laying on the charm,
did not get it.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
It just went he It was a freaking disaster. Okay.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
So I get there and he's doing some skit and
he's dressed up like Shakespeare.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Uh huh.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
He's like like he's got this collared, ruffled thing and
he looks like he's from the I don't know, early
nineteen hundreds. I said to him, Oh, I have always
considered myself to be a bit of a thespian, a
theater goer. Right, you're performing, you're in your outfit. I'm
(32:33):
coming to see your performance. He thought, I said I
was a lesbian.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Oh my good you can't write this.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
He did not theme to like my charms at that point.
He was like, oh, Dade, okay, well I threw a
party for you.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Actually we're having an after party. Please come to the
green room, blah blah blah blah blah. And I was like,
I blew it. I had one chance and I blew it.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
And I'm like, but but that's not what I said.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Ah, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah, so that was a nightmare.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
So is he at this point dating Danielle Fisher from
Boy Meets World and you're you're trying to like squeeze
in between here, you know.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
I don't think so. I think I got in there
before that. We were pretty young. But uh, I would
have you know, you know, I know how to weasel
up in there.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
You know, I would have, Well, again, the skit the Stalker.
So I love it. That's a great story, that is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Talk favorite shows nowadays, I would say anything involving espionage.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
So nothing's changed, basically, What about growing up? Did you
have a favorite cartoon?
Speaker 1 (34:04):
I was pretty loyal to the Nickelodeon cartoons. Okay, I
liked Rocco's Modern Life. I liked rug Rats.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
I liked the classics, and then watching them now you
realize how geared towards adult humor they really were.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Right, You're like, wait a minute, really, Oh, I see you?
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Well, okay, so what about a current favorite movie?
Speaker 3 (34:31):
Hmmm, the tough one.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Well, I would probably say, and this isn't a current
current one. But my favorite movie I have two of them.
One of them is The Devil Wars Prada, Okay, because
I read the book and I loved it, and they
just turned it into a musical and I can't wait
to go see it. I guess they made they put
(34:59):
in some music.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Elton john should be amazing. Vanessa Williams is starring on
it in London right now. I got to figure out
a way to get myself to London so I could
go see it. But my favorite movie of all times
is not a new one. It's not a current one.
Speaker 1 (35:14):
It is this is a little embarrassing, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie
Lee Curtis. A favorite movie of all times is the
movie True Lies.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Wow. I did not see that coming.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
I know it's so funny, but there's a reason behind it.
I was a naughty girl.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
We'll say.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Maybe I don't know how that one maybe twelve, I
was misbehaving. My parents grounded me for a month. They
took away my stereo. I wasn't allowed to do anything,
like I could do chores and that's it. Like I
couldn't watch TV, I couldn't go anywhere. I couldn't do anything,
like I didn't have a cell phone back then.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
I have videos like what could they take away? Oh
my stereo? Okay, do you know how old that sounds?
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Yes, yes, I hear myself, but that's what happened.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
They took away my stereo.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Oh my god, my multi disc chart changer with speakers.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Anyway, they took that away.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
And I'm just suffering because now weeks have gone by
and they're like, Okay, she's kind of a good kid.
She's not that bad. Maybe we were a little over
zealous with a month of this grounding, right, So my
dad takes me to the movies and he's like, we're
gonna go see something rated R. Don't tell your mom,
(36:39):
and you're still in trouble, so really, don't tell your mom. Okay,
let's go, let's go get and we went and we
went to see True Lies and it was rated R.
And I loved it. It was funny, it was action.
I was loving all of the things. And then a
week later, my mom takes pity on me and she goes,
(37:02):
you know, you're a good kid. I'm gonna take you
to the movies. And I said, really, thanks mom, and
she goes, you know, I really like that armold short snaker.
Speaker 3 (37:15):
Let's go see his show. And I go, oh, really, yeah,
let's go see his show and she goes, don't tell
your dad.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
So mom, parents took me to see this movie and
they said, don't tell your mom, don't tell your dad,
and nobody knew. They both snuck me in to see
this rateed arm movie and said don't tell the other one.
And then ten years later, I'm doing an interview with
Radio Disney and I tell them that story, and my
(37:46):
parents are both there and they look at each other
and then they look.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
At me like, I didn't tell mom. I didn't tell them.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
That's great, that is, and that's why.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
That is my favorite movie.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
I love that. Oh my god, I love that. All right.
So here is your last lightning round question. And I
think I know the answer, but I'm gonna ask it anyway.
Do you prefer horror movies or romantic comedies.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yeah, these my answers are kind of embarrassing. Okay, I
gotta go romantic comedy. I'm a simp. It's like, listen,
this is who I am. I'm not proud of it. Okay,
it is what it is. I'm scared of horror films.
I'm a screamer. I jump, I scream, I freak out.
I'm one of those people that I like to watch
videos of people getting scared, Like I like to watch
(38:41):
a video where someone's hanking the horn and the old
lady throws the gallon of milk, And that's me. I'm
that old lady throwing the milk. Okay, So no, I
can't watch horror films. I will ruin it for everybody.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
All right, that's fair. I mean again that that hurt
me a little, just like the rock and roll question.
But so before I get you out of here, it
just got two final things for you. First one is
going to be so what's next for you? I hear,
I don't know if it's true, so you can confirm
this or not. Are you making movies again? Are you
(39:16):
back on TV? What's going on with that.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
Back?
Speaker 3 (39:19):
Baby?
Speaker 2 (39:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
I did a movie. It is sort of like a
Western with a lot of action. I play a saloon girl,
which is.
Speaker 3 (39:36):
It's a lady who makes a lot of money doing
a lot of things she shouldn't be doing.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Okay, you know, there.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Weren't that many options for these ladies back in the day.
It's in the eighteen nineties, and I'm a wise, cracking,
funny chick, but super hot.
Speaker 3 (39:54):
The movie is called Black Creek.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
It is out this year, and I I have a
role in Seth Rogan's new show for Apple TV called
The Studio.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
Is that out already?
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Not yet?
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
I play the hot flight attendant on the private jet.
It's like art imitating life because I love to.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Fly private jets. That's what I do.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
So you know, typecasting, if you will keep an eye
out for that, it's awesome.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
It's funny show ever, all right.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
Very cool. And now with those two things being said,
let's get everybody to who doesn't already plug your social
media so they can follow you see what's going on
with that movie, that show. I'm glad to hear that
you're back in acting. And also, if you happen to
do one of your reunion comic cons, we want them
(40:51):
to be able to follow you and know where they
could meet you. So if you want to just plug all.
Speaker 3 (40:55):

so you can catch me on instead the most.

Speaker 1 (41:31):
Right because it's for like young cool people. I'm not
that young and I'm not that cool. I have one.
I try, I dabble, but you know, you know I'm
going to be honest my lane.
Speaker 2 (41:42):
I'm with you. I have one as well. I have
no idea how it works. I don't know what I'm
doing with it. I was the last person on earth
to get one. And now like, I literally just take
clips of me either wrestling or performing music and just
put them on there, and people are like, you know,
you could do this, that and the other. In my
I don't know.
