while it's on my mind, I want to give a
huge shout out to dual Fan on Instagram. Dual Fan
on Instagram, who helped pull all of the first appearances

(03:37):
of our dual cast members. I sent them a message
and I was just like, hey, would you happen to
have pictures of the first day that the current cast
appeared on the show. He was like, got it, and
I was like, thank you, sir, I appreciate it. He

(03:58):
is here in the chat. Thank you du Fans so
much for helping us out. We really appreciate it. It
was a hit, so thank you everybody. I also want
to continue giving a huge shout out to Justin Lee,
Harold and rsel Yadoles, who yesterday went live for two

(04:19):
hours on the Red Carpet for the sixtieth anniversary, just
going along with an idea that I had and I
said to do and they said all right, And for
two hours we were we were bringing you live on
the red carpet. So thank you, thank you, thank you,
thank you, thank you been.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Get together and for having the idea for the photos
that I told you before. That was a brilliant, brilliant
idea that the cast like really enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
They love it.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
That they really really did love it and enjoyed it.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
Thanks so appreciate it. Shout out to my mom, thank you. Yes,
so that I mean that idea was told to Justin
and rsel in line as we were at the Emmys,
and I was like, what if we do this? And
it was actually supposed to be a separate content thing,

(05:16):
and then I was like, well, we should just do
it here because why not. But anyway, we'll talk more
about the six years later on in the show coming up.
Also later on in the show, we will have finally
Lewis Tomio Aaron Green joining us live. Yes, he will
be here live to talk all things Aaron Green, So

(05:37):
you guys make sure you stick around for that. He
is very excited to join the show. He has been
wanting to come on the show for a very long time.
It almost seems like we were like, no, huh.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
I told him in February. I told him way back
at our party in Sabary, just let me know when
the storyline's gonna blow up. And then he's like, it's
gonna be a while. It's like, okay, okay, okay, I
promised him. I promised him. Look when happens, we would

(06:14):
love to have you on.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
It's like, well, we'll see you in a while there,
you know. So he's coming on today, so I'm really
excited to have him to really give some more insight.
All right, So what did we think of this week's
episodes of Days?

Speaker 3 (06:33):
This was a good week.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
I thought, Yeah, a lot of really really kids centric
this week, and then the first half of the week
was kitch centric, and then the second half of the
week is building up to this week the sixtieth anniversary
with the on screen gala. So I think it was
it was a good balance.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
Yeah, what do you think? Okay, oh god, even this week? Okay, okay, Well,
we guys will move on.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
I watched it, okay, all right, Well we'll talk about it.
I feel like this is like the first time that like,
it's like, what did you think, Tony? And I'm just like,
I watched it. I enjoyed it. So let's take a

(07:31):
deeper dive into it, shall we. I feel like that
sounded shady, but it wasn't meant to be. Let's do
this together, shall we. It is now time to start well,
you know close, all right, let's kick things off with

(07:54):
our top storylines. We'll start with the brand new Paul
Demera aka Tray aka tro aka fire Station Baby. Uh y'all.
This was the first time I looked up how long

(08:14):
does it take to adopt a kid? How long? Yeah?
The adoption process is not a day.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
No, it's not.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
I don't know. I don't know how in the morning
they can be like, we want a baby, and by
the afternoon they have one. Well.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Well, also, their mother is the mayor, so that helps.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah, my mom is the mayor and your aunt is
the district attorney. Things tend to move along quicker. I
suppose at least one.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
Of the bioparents endorses you.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Yeah, yeah, that see. That seemed to be the the
real push that the storyline needed, because I'm not even
sure if Amy Troy was apprized of what was going on,
but she in this situation, Aaron had more rights than

(09:18):
she did, so his vote was the one that counted
the DNA test. His opinion, that was what ultimately counted
the most.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
I feel like they didn't really give Aaron a chance
to grasp the fact that he became a dad, yeah,
and that he was a dad.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
It was very like he found out the same day
and then I think it was the same day he
gave up his rights.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
Later that day.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Yes, And that's the only sticking point. The thing is
that you know, we have not necessarily been on board
with the direction that this storyline has been going for
a while. But all of the emotions, I think, especially Wednesday,
seeing the interaction between the handoff between in the Hernandez's

(10:05):
and Johnny and Chanel and everyone's excitement and heartbreak, the
bittersweetness of it, it almost seemed to be so beautifully
tied up in a bow that I'm just like I was,
I was almost there, i was almost on board with it,
and then I'm like, I'm waiting for the other shoe

(10:26):
to drop.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Yeah, something else that's going to.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Happen there's like, yeah, like it's it's they had me
the emotions of the moment, the way that everybody was
so mature about it and honest, and like if like
if I were to put this in real life, this
is the perfect scenario that I would have wanted for
this child to be loved by by all of these

(10:54):
people at once. You you can't imagine anything better for
a kid. And yes, and it's like that one percent
of me that's like I'm waiting for the other shoot drop.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
I like you was thinking that too, until they made
it a point to say, like Aaron gave up his
rights and he endorsed Johnny and Channel and then I
was like, Okay, it seems to be like they're really
just tying up the storyline in a bow. I'm not
one hundred percent sure. I don't want to say what
the point was, but I'm not sure what the direction was.

(11:32):
Maybe like when we when we talked to Lewis later,
maybe he may give us some insight into this. So
like at the end of the day, what's different, you
know what I mean, Like, what what did we go
through all.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
Of that for?

Speaker 3 (11:45):
Like I understand the Sophia stuff. I get that maybe
the tape stuff is like, I mean, that was a
lot of that was a lot of mess for him
not to be the father, but okay, yeahah, and then
Aaron's the father and then now he's not the father
because he gave up his rights, and Johnny Ashanav is like, okay,
what kind of what was the point of that? So

(12:05):
I don't know if there was a different direction. I
don't know if this was just to throw a little
bit of a curve ball into the end of the
storyline before they wrapped it up. But I think once
I heard that, he he officially said to himself like
it seemed to me like he the decision was there
to give him up or place him, and that it

(12:25):
wasn't even a thought that Aaron would, you know, want
to be a single dad or want to raise it
with the Raised Baby team with his family. So I
was like, okay, like if if he already knows that
going in, then you know, kind of moving this story along,
moving this sort of part along doesn't bother me. But
I will say I found the the trade off to
be incredibly emotional, and I think we, you know, we

(12:48):
get on the writer sometimes lately about the pacing of
the show. But I think the one thing that they
have always consistently come through since they've taken over is
these sort of family scenes and these scenes connecting different people.
And I just thought that this is probably one of
the best we've seen in the last few months of
all these people coming together, all of their relationships fully

(13:09):
explored and realized and like stated out loud, like to
have all these people there, to have Johnny give Raethe
the title of honorary godfather honorary grand queuse was perfect,
Like it totally fit into what he would do. It
totally fit into their past. It was a little slight
against e j drone in there, you know, like it's

(13:31):
all wrapped up into one. It makes sense that Leo
and have the other godparents. It makes sense of Ari
saying I'm gonna miss baby Tea. But he now actually,
in a weird way, is a fit officially my family
now because Johnny is my uncle, so now this baby
is now my cousin officially. So I actually was really
impressed by it.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Yeah, it was impressive. I think emotionally it was. It
hit all the.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Marks, seeing like the handoff and how the first of
all beautiful shot of the Hernandez family all surrounded by baby.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
I saw that though it was it was almost like
a four person that sideways iconic shot. That was good.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
That was that was really good. But I was, I mean,
it was it was. It was so emotional and also
just I was also just like wow, this is happening
so quick, but it's also so awkward, like the whole thing,
Like it wasn't like like meeting the meeting an office
with like you know, like bell or like you know,

(14:33):
an adoption like coordinator or someone, and it's like handing
the baby off. It's like, uh, so you got the text, okay,
so just meet me in the Times Square and uh
and Horton Times Square I meant Horton Square and like
and we'll just we'll just hand the baby off. Yeah,
And it was like okay, but yeah, I don't know.

(14:57):
I was a someone was like, Tony looks so amused
by this, uh this storyline. I was like, no, I'm
actually just you know me. I was putting up a
poll on our instagram of who should have baby Tea

(15:18):
Johnny and Chanel or Hovey and Leo, and let's see
what people think. What do y'all think, do you do
y'all think that Leo and Hobvey should have kept baby
Tea or do you think that it because because I
was also thinking, like this is so classic Salem too.

(15:40):
There's one of everything. There's only one baby to adopt,
one therapist, one doctor. You know, there's just like one
of it. I was like, out of all the babies
that need to be adopted, there's just a fight over
this one. And and I was just kind of like,
is this Chanel and Johnny's baby? Like, of course it's
you know, for the drama of it all and everything
like that. But I think I started getting just used

(16:01):
to seeing Hovey and Leo with Tosotoh and and just
and I feel like it, even though it seems a
little quick, especially in the gay world, to like, you know,
be dating and boyfriends and living together and now you
got a baby, I don't know, for some reason, it
felt right and it felt natural. And it was also

(16:25):
a progression with Leo's character to suddenly be a father
figure to someone and and and seeing how he was
in in the in the Brady Pub talking with with Chad,
I was just like he really had an emotional connection
to the baby. So it's like like like you want

(16:51):
Chanelle and Johnny to have a kid, but like, is
it this kid?

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Greg Riccart, hear me when I say this, This was
your this was your material for next week's, next year's Emmy's,
this week's material. It was the rawest I have ever
seen that man, And you could feel everything that he

(17:17):
was feeling.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
Like it should go on the it should go on
the real one.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
The interactions with Chad that he had where just Chad
just just held him. He didn't even need to say
a word, he just held him, was like, I I know,
I know you're going through it, man. And even even
the scenes with Gwen later on, like he like Gwen
was trying really, really really hard not to sympathize with him,

(17:47):
and even she you could see the moment that it
turned in her eyes that she was like, oh damn,
he's really really heartbroken.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Yeah, I don't know, it was just a yeah, there
was a there, There were there were a lot of feelings.
I see a lot of of Javey and Leo. Yeah,
it's this story, but I also feel like I feel

(18:17):
like there was such a great build up with this
storyline and then they kind of just because I feel
like it actually could have It would have been interesting
to really see more of Aaron's reaction. Yeah, and maybe
spend just a little time him debating on whether or

(18:41):
not he wants to keep the baby and how does
that affect and how does that affect you know, the
Green family, you know Kat Like, even though Kat right
off the bat like gave amazing advice to him and
the shoulder and everything like that, but it's like, you know, again,
I don't know it just.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Well, well, the whole great thing is going right now
with on multiple fronts as we saw, and it seemed
like again, I'm interested in talking to Lewis about this
later and seeing his take on this, because that's I
agree with you, Tony, that's where my where my like
one two percent of me is kind of like I

(19:26):
want to like because everybody turned out such great material
this week, I want I actually want to be on
board with this. This is the first time I actually
like think that this is probably the best scenario for
all involved. Everyone has grown, everyone stays connected. But but
but but I'm it's like I'm I'm waiting and I

(19:49):
don't know if it's going to be Aaron, and I
don't know if it's going to be Sophia or Amy Troy,
but it's like that one two percent of me is
just like where's he had a shoe?

Speaker 1 (19:59):
But so, how is it gonna be? Like, you know,
Salem is small town USA, So now you don't give
up your baby. You know who they who who the
baby went to. So now essentially you're still gonna be
seeing this baby around and seeing this baby grow up.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
I'm I'm hopefully, I'm I'm hoping there isn't any other
parts of this, like not as far as this is concerned.
I'm actually kind of I'm I'm done with the storyline,
not in that way, you know what I mean, Like
I think we've I think they probably there probably were
a few different with and turns that maybe the writers

(20:36):
had to come in and take it seems well asked later,
but what seems there's there's probably more to this regarding
Sophia that we'll see, But I'm I'm I'm not interested
in like another custody battle, you know what I mean.
Like I don't want Sophia to get out of Bayview,
and it's like her and Amy choy Wage war against
Seanny and channel for for Trey, Like, I'm not interested

(20:59):
in that. I think he's adopted now, it's not her
choice where the baby goes to. The one parental figure
who still had some rights, gave their choice and that
was taken into consideration, and now the baby's adopted. I
feel like, like leave it at that. I still, of course,
we have to figure out Sophia, you know, her coming

(21:21):
out of you know, her trials and tribulations, and I'm
interested in that, but I'm not interested in any I'm
not interested in, you know, custody battle number three now
or something with this child.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
Yeah. The one thing I'm actually eternally grateful for that
they really seem to put a put a period on
at the end of this week was that Tay and
Holly are completely out of this now. Yes, yes, period.
You know, this is not their kid, this is not
their business. They can move on with their lives. They

(21:54):
seem to have come to a new understanding, had a
good talk about, you know, how they've been through it
this year and how they need to they need to
slow down and just be their age again. And that
that part I loved. I loved, they loved they loved
for them.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Yeah, can we talk about the name.

Speaker 3 (22:21):
Yeah, people are having real trouble with this name.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
I'm not sure that John John Paul Demara mm hm.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
I'm waiting for somebody to mention that that's the name,
but that John Paul is the name of a pope.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
John Paul is also the name of Philip.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
Yes, So it's like, I really.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
Like tree John trade John Demara.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
I actually what, I actually thought that that was what
it was going to be.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
At first I thought so too, and then they were
like John Paul Demira and I was.

Speaker 3 (23:01):
Like, I mean, again, we'll probably never hear him call
that unless he's in trouble by Johnny or Chanelle. It'll
probably just be Traded Demira for the rest of his life.
So yeah, I'm find that.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
But then I was like, I also just thought this
how how I just was saying it could be an
extra layer with with Aaron and like, you know, him
making his decision and everything like that. I mean, it's
another extra layer of like there's a whole lot of
stuff that could probably happen later on with with with

(23:41):
the kid. There's a probably a number of different storylines
that that they can probably do.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Yeah, I mean, look at Johnny's up bringing.

Speaker 3 (23:52):
Yeah, I mean, it's funny to think of that. But
I was like, this is one of my big sort
of complaints when it was, uh, it was Tate's baby,
or we thought it was Tate's baby. How you know,
inter inter family adoptions are not easy sometimes, so at
least at least like, yes, Aaron, Aaron is a friend

(24:13):
of the family, so to speak, so he's connected and
they all live in the same town. But at least
it's he's actually not in this he's I think this
adoption is gotten a little bit more space now that
it's not Tate's baby, Like at least it's not in
the same family at least mm hmm.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Yeah, yeah, that's a good point. That's a good point,
you know, friend of the family. Other than you know,
someone's cousin, someone's uncle, it's very different.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
Yeah. I also just posted on our Instagram, John Paul
Tamara do you like the name? Well, he's always going
to be referred to as baby Tea. But someone someone
pointed out, someone pointed out in the chat John Paul
isn't even the third anyway.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
Hmm.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
I'm like, I'm.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
Yeah, I mean Johnny's not the second either, but it's
you know, it's it's the John part that's.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
Yeah, but it was I'm not gonna take away that.
It was an emotional moment and like, oh, like the
second Johnny said the name, and then they cut to
Marlena and she was like and she was trying to
like hold it in. I was like, yeah, I was like,
DJ Hall, you better be the soap queen you are.

(25:29):
You better be the soap queen, honey. You was giving
us drama in that little.

Speaker 3 (25:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
Hm. I did have my own chuckle though when they
when he said Paul, and I was like, Paul, and
then I think Paul the character Paul is like. And
then he said after you and I was like, after you.
Mom was like, oh okay, that makes sense. I was like,
why is the name of in Paul after Paul? Like
they barely interact.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
They could have just named him John Paulina mhm.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
I would to prefer Trey John to be honest. M
It's just I think it just flips off the tongue
easier and it doesn't make me think of a pope.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
Well there's that, Paul Robin says, only I just read
just a little bit of it. I connected with this
because I gave up my son in an open adoption.
We chose the adopting parents and met them. I held
my son for an hour before taking him to their
room and handed him over. Oh, Robin, See, this is

(26:42):
what happens with soaps, is that like people do really
like resonate with them, like while while we're while we're
you know, dissecting it and everything like this. I mean this,
it's happened to people, you know, Shonda, that name's taken.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
Yeah, like I said, like I said, the way the
way that this was written this week and the way
it played out, it couldn't have been a more beautiful ending.
If this is how it ends. Yeah, No, I'm not convinced.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
Yeah I was.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
I gotta say last week I mentioned how I I
was waiting to see if EJ would like boost his
own his own part in this, and.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
I was screwing that.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
I was worried he was gonna do that. But actually
the way it came out, I actually wasn't mad at it.
I felt like before early this week, I was like,
oh God, he better not say anything. He's going to
use it as a ploy. But the way he sort
of released the information this week. I was like, Okay,
it doesn't It didn't. It didn't offend me or annoying
me as as I thought it would.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Well, you know why, because he said it. He said
it in a way that it was kind of matter
of fact. He's like, oh, like I had the discussion
with so surely that was it and not realizing that no, bo,

(28:21):
that's not it. We have found the baby daddy and
him said you can have it. So what did help? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Yeah, I mean again, we don't necessarily know what amy
Choy's role in this was at this point, if she
even got the chance to talk to Social services. But
I do agree that for Eja at least his posturing
was tempered.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:49):
Yeah, And this I want to say, I think Chanelle
should be very careful.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
I think she.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
I think Johnny is he's on the fence there, and
I think a lot of sometimes her boistering comes across
a little harsh sometimes. Again, we have reason to believe
why she dislikes EJ, but I think she sometimes goes
a little bit too hard. That's like, I feel like
EJ opens his mouth to say God bless you, and
she's like ready to like attack him again. I get it,

(29:19):
but I think because I don't think Johnny is as
angry as he it used to be, or as he
purports to be. So I'm like Chanelle, like he's up
a little bit because you don't want this to now
be another issue when your husband most likely will forgive
his father most likely pretty soon, and you know what
I mean, I just don't want that to be. Oh,

(29:41):
I think so. I think if it gave him the
first time, I think now that he's a he's in
a state of bliss. He's got his career, he's got
his wife, now he's got a baby. I think a
lot of that anger is probably going to fall to
the wayside and probably finding out that EJ went too
bad for him and tried to correct his kind of
original mistake. I think that away with Johnny. I think

(30:03):
he's sort of on the fence. I don't think he
wants to admit that.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
But.

Speaker 2 (30:08):
I think it's more that Johnny is not allowing his
anger to control his decision making anymore. So he's not angry.
He's more resigned that his father is always going to
be his father, but his father's never going to change,
and he cannot live his life in reaction to anything

(30:29):
that EJ does. He has to live his life for himself,
for his wife, which is what he's supposed to be doing.
But by that same token, I agree with you justin
that that doesn't necessarily mean that Johnny is always going
to keep that door shut on EJ. The door's not
necessarily shut completely.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
The door is.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
The door is not. The door is not locked unless
like they would move to move, like to another state
and never see him again. That's it. That's a whole
different thing, like actually putting distance. But they live in
the same town. You know they, you know they It's
just it's it is what it is. And I agree
she's now going so hard like EJ will never be

(31:12):
a part of this baby's life.

Speaker 1 (31:13):
I'm like, you don't know.

Speaker 2 (31:17):
Look, I'm sure Roman and Marlena had the exact same
thoughts about e J being in Johnny and Sidney's life.
Sammy had the same thoughts. But you know, but we
we know what happened there. What happened there A lot
of back and forth, a lot of fights, But yes,
Eja eventually was in both of his children's lives.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
MH.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
So she's just gonna have to you know, she's just
gonna have to watch her. Okay, Well, if she well,
then good good luck to you when you find out
what comes when you what happens when you cross the Demerara.
I'm not saying that she should I'm saying I'm saying

(32:04):
she should be prepared.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Now, she gotta be scar She gotta be prepared.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
She doesn't need to be scared. She's she's a bad
now was a capable person. She's gonna be the fiercest
Mama Bear. I have no doubt. But forewarned is forearmed.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
What was that?

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Forewarned is forearmed? You know the Deman, You know what
the DeMars are like. You know that EJ is the
worst of them. I'm not saying you have to be
on your guard, but you don't have to poke the
bear either.

Speaker 5 (32:39):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
I mean she knows just to be the classic. Like
every time he walks into a room, she'll be like,
I gotta go and say it just like that too,
Like e J comes in, Johnny.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
I'm gonna go, Hey, that's how a lot of people
get through Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna go, oh, you know how I said
to get through Thanksgiving, I always always or the holidays,
I always post this, uh this video that I said,
I always say when people like start talking about politics
or or or well, for that video, I was like,
if you're you know, if you're one of the letters

(33:28):
lgbt Q, I A plus in the family and they
always got something to say about you, you just grab
their hands like this and look them in the eye
and say, stay blast and just walk away. So when
anyone's like, you know this miracle or like you know,

(33:50):
darn tooting, they're doing it right, you just stay blast
in the conversation and go grab another help in a
macaroni and cheek. Because that stay blessed. It's very much
like bless your heart. It could mean a lot of things,
but depending on how you say it, it ain't a blessing.
Mm hmmm. Anyway, that is uh my side ran anything

(34:18):
else regarding Jean Oh, let me tell you where we
are with the poll. So far, so so far. Uh.
People think that it's it's very close. People think that
John uh Hovey and Leo should have U the baby tea.

(34:39):
But it's a it's very close, raised only by a
couple of votes. But everybody seems to like John Paul Demia.
Somebody gon't have to explain that one.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
There will always be a pope to me. Sorry, say what,
It's always going to be the pope to me. Sorry.
I know we have John Plasier, but that's it's it's
always the pope to me. It's a kind of.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Mhmm. All right, well that's it right, Okay, Well let's
move on to uh Smokey's these little demon seeds.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (35:22):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
When Rachel looked at Thomas and was like, what are
you scared? Like she's the one that pretended to be
your mother, I was like, who little adult is this? Well?
I mean she is. There is the spawn of Christen Damia.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
The more it before she even actually did anything on
Friday's episode, just the words that were coming out of
her mouth. I oh my god, shoo, shoot Lucky, I'm
not her mama.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
I mean we're getting when children old Rachel back. You know,
this was the previous characterization.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
Old Rachel back. She never left.

Speaker 3 (36:17):
This with the new This was a new actress. I
felt like they were trying to soften her a bit,
and this is her getting back to being just a
straight up brad.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
Evil, Rachel has been a brat for quite some time.
This is the same one, like Brady said, started stuff
with Chloe, got ave a, kidnapped, shot EJ.

Speaker 3 (36:39):
I mean, yeah, that was all the old one. That's
what I'm saying. This is all that was all the
previous one, and.

Speaker 2 (36:48):
You could spend oh gosh. I mean, look, I know
that there's only like three people who know that Rachel
shot EJ. But the way last week when Rachel like
put her hands up to stab that pumpkin and mar
Lena's reaction, I'm like, yeah, Marlena, you should be concerned

(37:11):
that even though she doesn't remember having violent tendencies, she
has violent tendencies.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Yeah, she's definitely got some.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
She has no remorse for her actions. She has remorse.
She she's sorry that she got caught and she's facing
the consequences.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
She said, I'm gonna be happy by any means necessary.

Speaker 3 (37:31):
Yeah, Okay, Thomas is won a follower into a snitch,
so someone beat his ass too, because.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
It's not me, it's her.

Speaker 2 (37:46):
You had actual remorse, though, which is that is like
that's as a kid, what you hope to have that.
He's like, yeah, he yeah, Look he's mad right now,
right now, He's angry. But this is not Thomas's instinctual nature.

(38:06):
This is Rachel's instinctual nature. Punishment, retribution, complete lack of remorse,
just like Amama.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
Yes, I I know I shouldn't laugh at this, but
I did when they when they cut to Chad and
Cat hugging and Jennifer and Thomas were upset. Thomas's face

(38:40):
looked like he looked like he like caught his dad
with his hand in the cookie jar. Yeah, I mean
he was just like.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
I was like, they're hugging, not not each other.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
I mean, I mean, look, Thomas's stricken face is one thing.
Jennifer's is like earlier when she said she's out of
our lives forever, I'm like.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
Stop these declarate.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
It's almost like she's rewarding Thomas for like being on
her side, especially like going and be like, oh, I
know you're on punishment, but let's go have some ice cream.
I'm like, I don't think punishment equals ice cream. Yeah, yeah,
I will. Side note. Side note, speaking of ice cream,
I cannot find the Blue Bunny anywhere, and not find

(39:34):
the Vanilla Chocolate Swirl anywhere. I'm so mad. You know
what else I'm mad about is the fact that Hamburger
Helper no longer sells Chili Mac. Like, why do we
have fourteen different cheeseburger flavors and not one Chili Mac?

(39:54):
I cannot find blue Bunny and I cannot find Chili Mac,
and I'm very upset. Now Jennifer wears my eyes cream.

Speaker 3 (40:06):
No, Thomas totally feeds off of Jennifer, and she subconsciously
feeds into it herself. I will say I was proud
of Chad for actually like stepping up and stop because
I felt like the past couple of weeks he's been
groveling a little bit to Thomas, a little bit too much.
So I was glad he stepped up and like checked
him and set him straight. And or so we thought, like,

(40:30):
I also think he needs to explain to him that
that is still gonna be, you know, around them somehow, you.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
Know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (40:39):
I felt like that was the part that was missing.
So where if he sees them together and he doesn't
need to jump to conclusions.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
Here's the problem with Jennifer harton of which there are many.
She's not my favorite character. But here's the problem with Jenny.
Here's the problem, Jenniferarton and I noticed it, and I
and I noticed it also in her her like visible
just discussed and it was discussed at Gwen and look,

(41:13):
I get it. She killed her mom and then and
then Jennifer ran her over with her car. So the
disgust is mutual. It's never gonna go away. It's never
gonna go away. That it's there's there's too much, there's
too much there. But here is where I side with
Gwen over Jennifer at least when's not a.

Speaker 5 (41:35):
Hypocrite what you mean?

Speaker 2 (41:41):
Because Jennifer walks around all high and mighty, pretending that
her hate is more justifiable than Gwen's hate, And I'm like, look,
you both have stuff to be angry at. And I'm
not saying that what she did to you was worse
than what you did to her, or I'm not here

(42:04):
to argue that point. You'll never be friends, you'll never
really be family, you'll never agree, you will never get along.
But it's that you think that your hate is better
than her hate. If you want to be angry and
never be friends, fine, but stop walking around and pretending

(42:25):
that because you're a horton, that you're.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
Sainted that everyone who wrongs.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
You and your family is in the wrong. Let's be
clear about this. Tom and Alice, the patriarch and the
patriarch of the Horton family, were the people in the
family that were beyond reproach. They were pillars of the community.
They were good sault of the earth, people who worked hard,
who gave back, who who took in a lot of people,

(42:58):
who were advocates for a lot of people that other
people said, oh, he's not good enough. You remember Alice Horton,
very big advocate for Boe and Hope. She rode that
train hard when when even Doug was like, he's not
coming near my daughter and blah blah blah. So those two,
in my opinion, are the only Cortons that are beyond reproach.

(43:20):
Everybody else slow your roll. I just better everyone else
because that is anti Christian. Thank you.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
I will go on record saying this over and over
and over and over and over and over and over again.
I don't understand how they don't see Cat's side. I
don't understand how it's just so devastating that she pretended
to be I mean, I see that, but it's like
when you know why it wasn't to be a gold digger,

(43:49):
wasn't to get like the family fortunate, wasn't wasn't any
of that. She was put in a position where she
had to do this in order to protect her family.
So at what point is there going to be grace
giving it? Muhum, and it's it's I'm so and and
and then for Jennifer, let me tell you what kind

(44:10):
of meaning man. When Thomas was very nice to Gwen
because they don't have any reason to like not like
each other, and he was like, you want to come
in and join us by ice cream, and Gwenn looked
like she wanted some ice cream, and she looked over
at Jennifer, and Jennifer said, I would have said, yes, Thomas,

(44:35):
I love tashy out. I would have walked in and
everything like I got a phone call and got.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
The irony, of course, is that Gwen has probably done
Gwen has done more to that family right or wrong,
than than Kat has. So Thomas doesn't know that when
and again Gwen is his aunt, so there's you know,
there's a familiar thing there. You know, I'm actually I
as much as Jennifer's been annoying me. I totally saying no,

(45:08):
I don't agree with her, but I think she's totally
fine to hate Cat.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (45:13):
My issue is not that she dislikes Cat. My issue
is that she gets mad at other people for forgiving her.
Like you can be magage her all you want, but
keep it to yourself. You have no right to tell
Chad he can't be friends with her, or he can't
forgive her, or he can't hate her, like it's up
to you to decide your own feelings, not to tell
somebody else or project them onto somebody else.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
That part, So.

Speaker 3 (45:36):
That's my problem, Like I mentioned this before, like I
always love, actually secretly love the fact that someone like
Lucas always hated Daniel, like you know, he messed up
his marriage. And I hate you. I don't care if
you're Maggie's son. And then as much as I love
Maggie and you're kind of in my family, I still
hate you. And even though you die, and I still
hate you. So I like, I'm okay with that. I'm

(45:57):
okay with people not liking each other. It's it's other
people what they should do where think or feel like Yeah,
so I'm okay with I'm okay with Jennifer Hayden cat.
I just don't think my problem is don't talk to
chat about it, don't influence your grandchildren about it, don't
run around screaming she's a terrible and horrible like keep

(46:19):
it to yourself and you're allowed to do that.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
And then, of course all of that leads to I.
I watched that scene where you know, Thomas is like, oh,
you get about his heart and then he leaves and
it's like Thomas, wait, skirt Thomas. So obviously he got

(46:48):
hit by a car.

Speaker 3 (46:51):
Their reactions were great.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
Oh it was great. But let me ask you this,
Why were they looking at as he walked away as
if he was like a grown man walking away, like
if a little kid, whitch, don't you know you? Like,
like it would have been a like a little snatch

(47:16):
like where are you going?

Speaker 3 (47:18):
But again it's that well, probably Jennifer is probably secretly
loving it, and then because she she she probably wants
to scream at Chad like that, and Thomas is doing it,
so she's loving it. Chad is feeling this ridiculous guilt
for some reason and needs to snatch Thomas up and
really ground him.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
Uh. Yeah, it just makes their relationship just like, oh,
what what have we been doing all these months? What
have we been doing? Finally y'all get to a point
where you tell each other you like each other and
then now, yeah, I got a problem, shut up. Mm hmmm.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
Anyway, I do want to imagine. I thought it was
interesting they had again just going back to Rachel quick
her kind of trying to like manipulate Sarah to like
help her out, and then before that how she ran
to Xander for protection. That little like innate is like
I'm safe with this person. I don't know why, but

(48:25):
I'm you know, I have a connection to this guy.
And yeah, yeah, bread So.

Speaker 2 (48:33):
This is this is one of many little moments that
they're dropping breadcrumbs about Rachel having been with Sarah and
Xander for the first year of her life and so
it's not it's not accidental anymore. I think that they're
they're leading up to actually Rachel finding out that Sarah

(48:59):
and Xander out one point, were her parents.

Speaker 3 (49:03):
H that I'm okay with, Yeah, so hopefully that's not.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (49:09):
Well, look, look the way I see it, shielding these
children has not done any good. You know, you try
You do your best to try to talk to kids
and not not tell them about adult things and complicated
things before they're ready. But at some point you have

(49:32):
to find a way to explain to kids why things
are the way that they are. You don't have to
go into over detail. But how does Sarah know that
she's ticklish? You know, this is just one and a many, many, many,
many incidents that have happened where Sarah is just overly
familiar with Rachel's habits.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
She explained it will I'm your doctor and your favorite patient.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Yeah, but it's it's it's it's getting to the point
where it's just like Sarah is not some stranger in
her life. She's not just her doctor. She's her friend.
She's very good friends with Brady. She sees, she seems
to see Rachel on the regular. She's seeing her much
more than her own mother is right now, and you

(50:16):
know she's also This is where I also could get tricky,
where you know, Sarah and Brady don't have the information
that kristin her own mother has that Rachel does have
violent tendencies and almost literally did almost kill someone, not
just with the punkin this week, but EJ so it's

(50:39):
it's too many people assuming they know things that they
don't know.

Speaker 1 (50:45):
Yeah hmm. But I wonder what they're gonna do with that,
Like if they made that a storyline, Like what are
they gonna do? Is Rachel just gonna be like okay, yeah,
because it's not it's not enough.

Speaker 3 (51:02):
Well, I think it's probably aiding the Brady Sarah stuff.
Maybe in terms of their budding relationship. I feel like
it might play a part in.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
That, like they can be like if they could be
a family.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
Kind of or like she's like, you know, ready made
family now that if if if they get together and
that's a that's a thing, or it could even I
mean I don't see it going this way, but they
could bring it back to her conception which was not
uh consensual if we remember so, like that could be

(51:38):
a thing too. I don't I don't think they're gonna
go there with that. They usually don't do it when
it's usually unfortunately, when it's a woman to a man,
they usually don't explore that.

Speaker 1 (51:50):
But they call because she got pregnant when she when because.

Speaker 3 (51:57):
M h and yeah, Brady not voluntarily decide to have
a child with with Kristen. Yeah, that was not a choice.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
Yeah, I forgot that messy, messy mess.

Speaker 3 (52:11):
I don't think they're gonna go there because I feel
like that that's another layer onto it that doesn't have
an exact connection to the Sarah stuff, but it does
explain the Kristen Brady animosity, you.

Speaker 1 (52:25):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (52:25):
Like it it could it could add to that conversation.
So I don't think they're gonna go there, but they could,
I guess.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
I mean, but she's too young for that, Like I
feel like that could this could be something really good
for later. Yeah, probably, which when she's a bit older.

Speaker 3 (52:39):
I mean, you know, she she's pretending, well not pretending,
but she you know, Rachel's into some stuff.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
She's she a bit she's a little too grown so
or maybe or maybe she'll she'll find the mask and
become Thomas.

Speaker 2 (52:56):
And then quickly the other side of this. Alex, thank God,
has a thickhead. That pumpkin seemed to do minimal damage,
but he did. He did blame Jeremy, and I do actually,
I do think he was in the right. I know
he had like preconceived anger towards Jeremy, rightfully so, but also, dude,

(53:20):
you suck as a teacher. You do one because you
left a viable weapon in front of children.

Speaker 1 (53:29):
And no time out time out leaving a BB gun
or or something like that, like easily figured out a cannibal.

Speaker 3 (53:49):
Yes, I think there's a he has a point.

Speaker 1 (53:51):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
I don't think it's Jeremy's fault. But I think Alex
had a angry at him about the stiffany stuff. That
is a valid point.

Speaker 2 (53:59):
You don't think he's gonna be he could be criminally negligible.
That's not where I'm going with this argument.

Speaker 1 (54:04):
I'm just a canap like like he like, he did
everything he could. He turned it around them little them,
little demon seeds, turned it the right.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Way the demon seeds. As a teacher anticipating the demon seeds.

Speaker 1 (54:21):
But also would go operate a canna pault.

Speaker 2 (54:31):
That doesn't make any seeds the Yes, yes, you have you.
That's that's why being a parent and being a teacher
are the toughest jobs in the world. Well, then guess
what anticipating the things that you can never prepare for.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
Well he did. He turned the thing around. He left
it all the way in the corner he thought nobody
was going. He was watching it. He walked away for
a second to apparently, I guess, allegedly try to stab ALX,
And then he came back, and the little rodents were
over there, like messing with it. Where's your daddy? Where's
your mama? Why are y'all over here? Y'all shouldn't even

(55:08):
be over here this alone, having a full on adult
conversation about some stuff that you shouldn't even be doing.
Your mom and your daddy should be over here. Why
y'all over here messing with people's stuff. You're not supposed
to be messing with no one stuff. You can tell
that they did not get to talk before they got
out of the car. Brady should have looked at Rachel
and said, don't touch thathing, don't ask for nothing, don't
act up in this Horton town square.

Speaker 2 (55:30):
Well, he's also a sucky teacher because he clearly is
not explaining the experiment correctly to them. Look, you don't
have to go into the math. We're not talking about
middle school science where you got to explain the equations
to these little kids. But yo, as far as explaining
the fact that heavy object, high speed big boom that

(55:57):
should have been bare bones, the bare bones explanation of
that experiment, and he failed miserably. So you, sir, suck
as a teacher.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
Y'all really want Jeremy to be so bad.

Speaker 3 (56:15):
No, he's not bad. It was just negligent. I don't
even think. I wouldn't even say it's his fault, but
it was negligent.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
Yeah, I'm not. I'm not necessarily convinced that he is.
He's a totally bad person. I'm I'm still I'm still
willing to let this play out and see if he's
really changed. I'm I would just not let my my
kids be in his classroom.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
This was This was my question, Are we sure Jeremy
tried to stab Alleys because doctor Rolf is in town? Like,
do we do? Do we think it was Jeremy.

Speaker 3 (56:54):
It's confusing because we just assumed it was somebody else,
But then this week they made it seem like Jeremy.
Like Alex saw Jeremy. So that's what I was confused about.
I didn't get that he.

Speaker 2 (57:08):
Didn't see him. No, So the way that the scenario
played out, Alex saw in the split second when the
pumpkin went flying over to cat, he pushed her out
of the way and took the hit instead. What he did,
he he and he was so distracted by of course
he'd be distracted by a flying pumpkin too. He was

(57:29):
so distracted by that that he didn't see someone coming
up behind him. And then we got the explanation at
the end of the week that that when he was
examining the shirt, that that was actually a giant slit
in the back of his costume that couldn't have been
made by the pumpkin.

Speaker 1 (57:48):
Yeah, okay, maybe.

Speaker 3 (57:52):
A comment that they saw someone or or pointed to Jeremy.
That's why I thought that's what it was. Okay, now, okay,
so then, no, I don't think it was Jeremy. I
think it was someone probably dressed like him. I don't
know who though, or maybe it's maybe it's a misdirect
and it was Jeremy.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
I don't know. Background extra number five, who was also
instructed to dress like Jeremy.

Speaker 3 (58:19):
Didn't we Okay, what shot was it? Because I know
I definitely saw this this. I definitely saw there was
someone either it was Jeremy or someone who was dressed
as Jeremy, and they didn't show the face, had the
knife in no standing in the corner with the knife,
not not the up and down. Was that Jeremy we

(58:41):
saw with the knife?

Speaker 2 (58:43):
They never they never showed us. So we're we're led
to believe that it's either Jeremy or it's a misdirect
that somebody.

Speaker 5 (58:50):
Else is not for Alex got it.

Speaker 3 (58:51):
So we're still at the same place we were a
week ago before this happened. Yes, nothing, nothing concrete. Okay,
nothing concrete we've given okay, yeah, okay, well, well last
thing before a yeah for Susan forgetting Rachel's little last
together in the bookstore.

Speaker 2 (59:12):
Somebody had to do it, okay, Susan.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
Yeah, Susan ain't having that little brat because she probably
she probably, you little vampire. You little vampire.

Speaker 2 (59:26):
Also gave a warning. Susan also gave a warning to
Stephanie that the events of her book were going to
come true. So now I'm interested in what's actually in
the book.

Speaker 1 (59:37):
Remember that she gave the synopsis of the book. Is uh,
the writer of a non fiction detective thing gets kidnapped?
M right off? Right off?

Speaker 2 (59:56):
Is that the name?

Speaker 1 (59:58):
Yeah? Yes, no, listen. Now, I can admit that I
don't pay attention a lot, but.

Speaker 3 (01:00:05):
Last week we were completely like, what does it mean?

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
We don't understand that I was that, but you don't
remember right off? All right, Well anyway, well that was
that storyline. Let's move on to our last top storyline,

(01:00:29):
which are some missing demeras? Do we think because I
knew they they started that and and and and oh
is it? Is it right out or right off?

Speaker 2 (01:00:46):
I thought it was white out?

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
No, it's right like you know now, I don't know,
don't like you know now, don't try to sit down
that that whole time I was saying right off and
you was just in there like huh and never right
you do it? Okay, maybe it's it's something write something,
it's right out, ye, right out, right out? Yeah, okay, whatever,

(01:01:12):
right out? Show up hands. Who thinks e J has
something to do with Tony's disappearance? Okay, this Tony disappearing
storyline is interesting, but also.

Speaker 2 (01:01:34):
Huh, yeah, I think had something to do with Tony's disappearance.

Speaker 1 (01:01:40):
But he gonna leave Anna on the boat. Yeah that's
a little sloppy, Like surely Tony would have said grab
your things and they both gone Tony, where are we going?
What's happening? Where are we going? Or just to himself.

Speaker 2 (01:02:01):
Well, they dropped a major piece of news this week,
which is that I suspect may have something to do
with where Tony is, which is that Gwen and e
J were responsible for Dimitri's disappearance.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
Oh yeah, so yeah, I think that was pretty telegraphed
when they were working together.

Speaker 2 (01:02:27):
I mean, we knew that Dimitri didn't dump Leo of
his own accord, that that was Yeah, it was just
a matter of who. And all this time I thought
it was Megan.

Speaker 3 (01:02:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
Yeah, it turns out it was going in e J
and I guess they're there, which means that their their
tag team actually goes way back further than we thought.
It goes all the way back to when she first
left two years ago, do.

Speaker 3 (01:03:02):
You think though, I don't know. I thought I thought no,
I thought it went back to when he was released
from jail, because remember he was in jail for a while,
so it wouldn't have mattered. I'm assuming it happened after
he got.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
Out of jail.

Speaker 2 (01:03:17):
Oh yeah, after he gotta Yai. Yeah that was he
didn't serve his full sentence, so it was But I
mean it goes back, yeah, yeah, it predates her her
coming back to Salem a while.

Speaker 3 (01:03:29):
While yeah, doesn't make sense. If he's out of the picture,
she can work on the vomisers to get the money
without him interrupting or so yeah, I mean it makes
sense why if anyone was going to kidnap him, it
would be yeah, when in leo, in order, when in excuse,
when in e J.

Speaker 1 (01:03:46):
Yeah put the money if.

Speaker 2 (01:03:49):
You follow point A two point B I I have
a strong suspicion that that is because yeah, well, either
they're in cahoots or Dimitriy von Lusher is not as
unreachable as we think.

Speaker 3 (01:04:17):
Say what so yeah, I'm confused.

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
So I suspect because so, say, Tony did not disappear
of his own accord, somebody had to disappear him. Yeah,
who would have greater motivation than Dmitri Right now, Well.

Speaker 1 (01:04:35):
We don't know that. Wait what Wait say it again.

Speaker 3 (01:04:41):
I'm not gonna from dmitriy to Tony.

Speaker 2 (01:04:46):
Yeah, look, yes, but.

Speaker 3 (01:04:51):
He's isn't he kidnapped himself? I'm confused with what you said.

Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
We don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
As far as we know, guys, there's a lot we
don't know. We don't know there and there's a lot
about Tony situation that we don't know. I'm just I'm
just falling breadcrumbs right now. There's been a lot of that.
There's been a lot of Dmitri mentions. There's been a lot.
There's a lot that we don't know about where Demetri is.
There's a lot that we don't know about where Tony is.

(01:05:17):
And I'm just thinking that maybe they have some connections
tissue there.

Speaker 3 (01:05:22):
So for me, I'm assuming Dimitri is being held against
his will, not that you know, put him on a
boat something.

Speaker 2 (01:05:31):
But who didn't escape? That's my point. Who's to say
he didn't.

Speaker 3 (01:05:34):
Escape and kidn Tony for revenge against Gwen.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
It's all an agent, it's all possible. I'm just, I'm
just I'm just.

Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
That break from is stale, honey. I mean maybe yeah,
I mean, if if that okay, well.

Speaker 3 (01:05:57):
I mean if it's Dmitri. I hate all the Demeurs
now for everything, for how my life turned out, and
I'm gonna get each one of them one by one,
then I mean maybe yeah, it's not they over there.

Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
A mel Us Win m hm, Melus Wynn is thriving
over there with with with them.

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
I mean, it's a nice compound of compounds. Somebody's got
to live there.

Speaker 3 (01:06:20):
Mm hmm. Yeah, we don't know what's happened with Tony.
I assumed it was something because it's like, why would
they do this whole he's kit he's missing, then he's
not missing. Then I mean it makes sense now that
he actually is missing, or at least we think, or
at least he wants people to think he is.

Speaker 1 (01:06:41):
Maybe he's not, and don't. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:06:44):
We still we haven't got really any more information than
we did before.

Speaker 1 (01:06:48):
But there's there's a lot happening between Gwyn and e j.
It is not just this hospital oh yeah, m hm
hm h les, but not Lee's aid came over and.

Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
Was just like, oh, don't don't do literally the exact
same thing you're accusing.

Speaker 3 (01:07:14):
You're accusing your son of not wanting to do like.

Speaker 1 (01:07:19):
A please.

Speaker 2 (01:07:22):
Yeah, that's just meddling at this point. Is just is
the opposite of what what he needs. And look, look
it's true THEO maybe Owner's head and Roman made some
very good points about how seeing it and actually being

(01:07:45):
the victim in the way that Roman and Abe were
for decades is a whole different thing, and I'm glad
actually he explained it that way because there's that decades
old PTSD of like Roman's life was literally stolen out
from under him. So he understands in a way that

(01:08:07):
Paulina can't. So I'm glad that he was the one
to explain it to her and that way. However, that
does not mean that this is the way that Abe
needs to go.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
Can we just can we just not let THEO decide
what he wants to do, which obviously he decided to
be the CEO of de Mara period.

Speaker 3 (01:08:30):
Also, they're operating like I would feel. I think I'm
harder on Aide too, because I think this is this
is not the same situation as twenty years ago. It's
not even the same situation as what seven years ago
when THEO was shot. Originally, Stephano was not around, He's
not under Stefano's influence. Andre is not around. He's not

(01:08:52):
under Andre's influence for the most part. Ej is the
troublesome Demeira at the moment, and he's we see he's
kind of slowly trying to like dip his you know,
finger toes sort of into the corporate stuff with THEO,
like he you know, we'll wait you see if he
has an agenda there or not. I'm sure he does.

(01:09:13):
But other than that, what you know, say we want
about Tony, But Tony is a pretty even killed guy.
He's not you know, he'll kill, he'll plot if he
needs to, but not out of pure enjoyment or just
trying to ruin people or get people. That's really not Tony.
So I feel like it's his anger is really misguided.

(01:09:35):
I think it has a lot of anger over the
Lexi stuff that happened twenty years ago, because, as we said,
before Lexi died, she really came to a good balance
of keeping her Demera side of the family and putting
up boundaries with them and also still having her relationship
with Abe in her family. With Theo. Also, like I said, THEO,

(01:09:55):
like Theo is a Demira. I know A doesn't want
to admit that really, but he pretends like they're strangers
trying to like take him or.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
Something like lure him in the family. Yeah, and he.

Speaker 3 (01:10:08):
Has a relationship with these people. It's not you know,
it's not like the like came to town and he's like, oh,
I'm a Demira and I'm trying to figure them out.

Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
Like exactly he grew he grew up playing chess with
his No. No, he you know, he continues. He can,
he can. He's one of the few people that I
think actually can hold his own with EJ. And e
J is you know he he loves that kid. He's
not gonna pull. He's not gonna pull. I mean, he's
still He'll still be EJ with him. But he would
never do anything to purposely put him in harms. Way.

(01:10:38):
He loved Lexi and he loves THEO. You know, he
would absolutely pull his punches. And but except maybe in
a game of chess. So I don't I think that
abes letting a lot of past issues influence present day.
And I again, even if the worst happens, say the

(01:11:02):
worst happens, THEO is in over his head. He can't
handle either the pressure or the shenanigans or all the
behind the scenes stuff that the demares get into. That
still doesn't mean that you turn on your son. You
still have to be that constant that you always work,
because that's what Lexi really wanted m.

Speaker 3 (01:11:25):
And also like if he, like you said, if he
is going to like come up against some hardship there,
like you want him to be able to pick up
the phone and call you as an advisor or as
a confidant, to be like, hey, dad, can you help
me out of this? I don't know where to turn here.
I'm I'm struggling with this. Like Abe is like he's
not declaring war, but he's very much making this a

(01:11:48):
bigger issue between him and his son than THEO is.

Speaker 2 (01:11:52):
I said it, Anthi says last week, I will say
it again. Live here. Don't be the person that your
kids can't confide.

Speaker 1 (01:12:01):
Hm. But also look who THEO is gravitating towards. It's
not like he's like because we saw when when Lexi
embraced the Demera aside, right, But like THEO is like Chad, Yeah,
you know he's a Demera, but he's not a Demera,
you know what I mean? If he was like hugged

(01:12:22):
up on EJ, be worried Abe, but like he's not. Yeah,
let that boy run that office. Somebody got to y'allam
ran through everybody, like just let just just let him
be let Lee malone.

Speaker 3 (01:12:41):
So it's like the logic is crazy. So now Abe's
gonna work with EJ, who he wants to keep away
from his son, to plot against his son now and
ruin basically ruin his shot at and again, Abe is
completely discounting the fact that THEO wants to do good,
you know what I mean. He's like, so, now you're
gonna plot against your son possibly doing good with this company,

(01:13:03):
and what you're gonna hand it over essentially probably hand
it right back over to EJ then or Tony or
you know. It's like, I don't know, the logic just
doesn't really make sense.

Speaker 2 (01:13:13):
I really hope EJ has one of those rare moments
of clarity and tells Abe, don't do what I did. Yeah,
don't go behind your son's back. It will not end
well for you.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
M Yeah, let that boy run that company. Period. That's it.
All right, Well, speaking of that's it. Those were your
top storylines, and now we are heading over into our tidbits.
But before we do, just a little reminder, y'all make

the chat. And also keep in mind that coming up
we're going to have making his Distion Day's debut, Lewis
Tomeo Aaron Green will be joining us live, so make
sure you stay for that because we got a lot
of questions for him. I feel like I said that

(01:14:53):
in a way like we're about to start interrogating.

Speaker 2 (01:14:57):
Maybe just a little bet.

Speaker 3 (01:15:00):
Can you imagine if he signed off and was like no, thanks, okay.

Speaker 1 (01:15:08):
Like he's signing he was like you know what, Nope,
and just like like Hella, all right, let's get into
these tidbits really quick. Uh still keeping secrets.

Speaker 3 (01:15:23):
Uh, I get it, but it's like here we go
again with this, with this storyline.

Speaker 2 (01:15:32):
I think it's smart to keep Kate in the dark. Yeah,
still annoyed. I'm still annoyed with Sarah. I'm still annoyed
with Maggie. Even though we didn't see her, I felt
her presence. I'm sorry. I have a bug up my
butt about the horns right now. There, I've said it.
They're not on my Christmas list this year?

Speaker 1 (01:15:55):
Who are you putting on your Christmas list?

Speaker 2 (01:15:59):
Look? I give a lot of presents, and I give
very thoughtful gifts. I got one cards. I K Yes
you did, Yes, you did, Liar, liar, I did last year.
Day of days?

Speaker 1 (01:16:14):
Are you talking about that? That was not Christmas?

Speaker 2 (01:16:18):
No, but it was a very thoughtful gift hand picked.

Speaker 1 (01:16:21):
I was like, we're talking specifically about Christmas. I have
not received a Hallmark card addressed from R. Sally Avalanze.
I have not been given a thoughtful gift from you.
And you sitting here talking about how you give people
gifts and stuff and the words of Mauri that is
a lie.

Speaker 2 (01:16:40):
Okay, they're not always for Christmas, but sometimes they are
for other occasions or just a just because gifts. The
point is, whenever I give one something, even a card
is very thoughtful and I'm sorry, and you're not even
guaranting a generic one this year.

Speaker 1 (01:16:58):
You could have used print Master and print it out
for or canvas or something.

Speaker 5 (01:17:03):
Nope, that's cool.

Speaker 1 (01:17:06):
I mean, listen, I feel like if they tell Kate,
that's just gonna open up a whole other can of worms,
because you know Kate is I mean, especially the fact
that Philip was almost died. Yeah, Kate gonna have Xander's
head definitely.

Speaker 2 (01:17:24):
I don't know. Philip seems to be okay with it now,
seems to have gotten over the eye almost died part.

Speaker 1 (01:17:31):
Well, yeah, you know what I feel like, Philip, we
should just move on. It happened, he survived, he's healed nicely,
just still has a fake leg. It's okay, what are
you going to do? Do y'all think he should tell Kate?

Speaker 3 (01:17:50):
No, no, not now, just leave it.

Speaker 1 (01:17:53):
Do you think Sarah would tell Kate just to be like.

Speaker 3 (01:17:56):
Hmm, maybe an anger, No because she because it'll it'll
mess up their whole like plan they got going on
with and stuff for tighten and they don't want to
do that already. No, but the the business side of
it with remember like their their personal money is tied

(01:18:18):
into tighten now and the fact that he is the
only one making the money, so it's like, yeah, we
don't want to let's not piss off the person who's
who's who's keeping our company afloat.

Speaker 2 (01:18:30):
It's actually turning a profit.

Speaker 1 (01:18:31):
Yeah, you know what I just realized. Lindsay Sarah definitely
gave Xander the I gotta go. She did, She really did.
Did I really feel like in any sticky situation that

(01:18:55):
you don't want to be in, and especially if you
hate someone, you just gotta be like, I'm gonna go.
Would you say it? Just like that, I'm gonna start
using that. I'm gonna use that on y'all. That's my
Christmas gift to you. Let's talk about the next tidbit,
a new job from Mark Green do y'all. Let me

(01:19:20):
tell you this the way I was screaming at the TV,
very much like, bitch, you just got out of jail.
How you gonna end up working for something that's like
all secretive and you know, no, you need to go
find you a respectable job, if that's even being a

(01:19:41):
backer at CBS, because that's the only people who hire.
Don't be doing no research that you don't know fully
what's going on, and you just got out of jail.

Speaker 3 (01:19:51):
I actually like how they tied they did it. Actually,
I agree, it was like, oh god, here, you know.
It seemed like he was very adamant about what he
would do. But then EJ tied it to versa vix,
which I was like, Okay, that's smart.

Speaker 1 (01:20:05):
He needed to ask more questions with his.

Speaker 3 (01:20:07):
Mom, so that tied into it too. It's like, Okay,
I'm working on a drug that could potentially also now
help my mother. Who's who's dealing with this setback? I
thought it was waiting there.

Speaker 1 (01:20:19):
Well, remember the last time he tried to help his
mom he ended up in jail, y'all remember that. Remember
when he was instructed to shoot to kill Chad and
where did he end up?

Speaker 2 (01:20:33):
There are some people jail who do you know, side
business and do sneaky well. I would argue his sister
did it a little too well, and she actually felt
worse about it, but she's still doing a pretty good job.
So you are, you have no business in that field.

Speaker 1 (01:20:49):
Just do your work, listen? Is it the second? The second?
EJ was like, you know whatever? You know? In his accent,
he described like how the job was, and it seemed
something that like you can't tell anybody, I gotta go
ouh see.

Speaker 3 (01:21:09):
I think it's gonna be more of a like what
he's doing is legal, but how they take the information
will be the illegality.

Speaker 1 (01:21:18):
So I thinks something there, something don't seem right. It
like I can just.

Speaker 3 (01:21:22):
Imagine any researcher though.

Speaker 1 (01:21:25):
Uhh, I can justine. And then he brought in doctor Rolf.
I can just I can just imagine Mark sitting there
like late at night with you know, the the little
test tubes and things of bubbling, you know, the goggles
and the gloves and all this kind of stuff. And
next thing, you know, Salem PD and guess where he's

(01:21:45):
going back jail.

Speaker 3 (01:21:48):
I don't know. I think he's gonna be protected here. Actually,
I think he's gonna help do the stuff, but he's not.
I think they're gonna keep him part of the legitimate
side of it, and then Ralph is gonna take the
information and do the illegalities whatever. They We just still
don't even know what's going on here. But I think
that's the way around it, because I don't feel like

(01:22:08):
also ej is I don't feel like he wants to
put Mark in that situation either. I kind of feel
like he was tiptoeing around it, like have.

Speaker 6 (01:22:17):
You No, No, I think he cares enough not to
expose what he's doing either, you know what I'm saying,
So like he'll have him do the grunt work of it,
and then doctor Rolf will take that and do whatever
they're doing.

Speaker 1 (01:22:33):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:22:33):
I don't think Mark is gonna actually know what he's doing,
or he's gonna well, no, he doesn't know what they're doing.
I'll say no.

Speaker 1 (01:22:40):
I mean clearly he doesn't because he's not asking enough questions.
He's just all excited about the hot tech research lab
that he can be in even though his his license
is suspended. It's like you listen, you like you you
fresh out of jail, like fresh, like you probably still
slowly got the jail smell on you. Like that's how

(01:23:03):
fresh you are out of jail, and you need to
ask all kinds of questions before you. Especially with the
demera you went from you went from one sly person
to the another. You went from from what's his name
there we go almost called him Craig. You went from

(01:23:23):
Clyde to EJ. But you just kat can get you
a nice little job, like I don't know, mopping the
floors of the FBI headquarters.

Speaker 2 (01:23:37):
That would require her disclosing what she's actually doing.

Speaker 1 (01:23:40):
Yeah, well, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:23:42):
Maybe it's my my female intuition, but.

Speaker 1 (01:23:47):
Also forgetting my female intuition, can ca I finish?

Speaker 2 (01:23:51):
Please? Maybe it's just my female intuition. But I would
have been out the door at the words non disclosure agreement.

Speaker 1 (01:24:00):
I wouldn't have walked into the door of the of
the research lab.

Speaker 2 (01:24:04):
Good ever comes after non disclosure.

Speaker 3 (01:24:09):
No, that's any research job though, you can't you have
any research assigns that you don't disclose what you're researching,
whether it's I mean, most most things are legitimate, even
that you know, you know, people work on drugs, don't
sign a non disclosure.

Speaker 5 (01:24:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:24:23):
So the way the way I would have wiped my
fingerprints off of that lab, like I would like this
is nice, walked away. Well, he needs a job, and
we'll see you don't need a job that bad, but
we'll see what happens. I think it's also just hoping
that they keep mark on the canvas, because I like

(01:24:47):
the fact that we have another family in Salem. That
they can do stuff with. And it was always weird
that like Kat got off, but which now we kind
of know maybe why she did because she had a
link to the FBI. But Mark was sitting in jail forever.

(01:25:10):
Now that he's out, now you're about to put him
in more trouble. We not gonna see that man until
he about sixty years old and he pop up and
be like, I'm out of jail now. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:25:21):
I kind of feel like he's safe now that he
already went to jail for like something bogus or.

Speaker 1 (01:25:26):
Like it's a double Jeopardy kind of a thing.

Speaker 3 (01:25:28):
Yeah, or like they they're not They're going to keep
him around now for a little while. Maybe even if
you get in trouble, he'll get out of it. Listen,
if everyone else can get a pardoned or an excuse,
like he's already been screwed over by going to jail
for you know.

Speaker 1 (01:25:44):
The second they they bust up in that lab, I
would be like, listen, my name is Ben, and I
ain't in it, like I just needed a job. I will,
I'll collect my last paycheck. I'll just I'll I'm gone bye.
M anyway, all right, Well, that was this week's episodes

(01:26:04):
of Days and oh my gosh, wait am I in
charge of this? I am matire And now we are
going to our favorite part of the show, which are
our segments, and we're gonna start with mine, which is

Speaker 5 (01:26:28):
That's a lot there, we go.

Speaker 1 (01:26:31):

a lot of buttons. Well, this week, my three Snaps
Award goes to the entire cast and crew of Days
of Our Lives as they celebrate sixty years of kidnappings,
fake deaths, coming back from deaths, buried alives, new people,

(01:26:54):
old people, super couples. Well, people don't realize is that
people put in a lot of work over the past
six years to make this show what it is, as
legendary and as iconic as it is, and it's still
on the air today. So every cast and crew member, current, present, future,

(01:27:18):
and whenever you get Tony's Official Please Snaps Award, there
we go. Oh that's still mean. We don't have caption
that this week because Michael Madis isn't here. But let's

(01:27:39):
travel back to.

Speaker 3 (01:27:45):
I read everyone taking it back to November second, twenty seventeen,
when a drunk Lucas saw the real Will for the
first time after his presumed death. This kind of got me.
We were down a little bit of a rabbit hole here,
so after the show check out, I those were the
days extended where I go take a bit of a
deep dive into like the Lucas Will father son relationship

(01:28:08):
by split it up into kind of like three parts.
But yeah, I just kind of want to show Brian
Totillo some love who we love here and hope we
don't will see him soon, I think next week, but
we'd love to see him as a more permanent character
moving forward. But yeah, that was November second, twenty seventeen,
when a drunk Lucas saw the real Will for the
first time.

Speaker 1 (01:28:29):
That looks like is that you well, thank you and well,
and that it's time for it's a.

Speaker 2 (01:28:47):
Gift and this week's It's a gift, but goes to
Marsa rees As Marianna Horton in her response to her mama, No,
and this is my reaction whenever someone wants to comment
on my business, like for your opinion, No, huh, not

(01:29:19):
you guys. This is literally an opinion show. Not you guys.

Speaker 1 (01:29:24):
Oh no, people, Oh I know it had nothing to
do with me.

Speaker 2 (01:29:28):
No, no, no, I promise it was not you. This
is literally an opinion show. I like our opinion and banter.
But other people, I'm like, no, I didn't ask for it.

Speaker 1 (01:29:41):
Hmm, and that was it's again. Can you imagine if
I would? And that was no, and that it's time
for news and gossip. Every time we played these little thing,
I'm like, this show is so ridiculous. All right.

Speaker 3 (01:30:05):
So starting off, we have some casting news. Ddre Hall
has a role in the upcoming Star Trek series. An
interview with Eric Monsov to promote Day six day anniversary.
She sort of let it slip. She just filmed a
small little guest starring part in the franchise, and we
believe this one is the Star Trek Strange New Worlds,

(01:30:25):
where she will be playing a surprise surprise as psychiatrist.
And we will keep you we'll keep you posted on
when that will air. But yeah, kind of exciting. You'll
find something different for Deirdre.

Speaker 1 (01:30:37):
I like when she did Hacks. So yeah, yeah, that
was good. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:30:42):
Next up, we have generally actually new Harmark Christmas movie
Chris Chris Mystery. It is available in how to stream.
She also released her new self help book, Wake Up
Your Faith, which can be purchased through Amazon. So go
check out Jen Lily's book and also go stream her
new movie movie Christmastery. What is it called Christmastery Christmas Tree?

(01:31:07):
Because I think it's that, Yeah, Christmas Christmastery.

Speaker 1 (01:31:09):
Yeah, it's almost like saying Christmas Tree the Christmas Street.

Speaker 2 (01:31:14):
I've heard it both ways, Okay. Next up, in honor
of the sixtieth anniversary of Days of Our Lives, People
magazine got an exclusive cast photo which is pretty much
everyone in the current cast, although could be current, could

(01:31:39):
be recurring. Basically there's a lot of people. There's some
people who might be missing, might be future. We'll let
you know. Go check out People to see what Deirdre
and Susan Hayes, two of the longest running cast members,
had to say about this epic milestone. And go to
that Day's Peacock on Instagra for the broken down version

(01:32:02):
of this photo where they have it piece by piece.
It was a very beautifully shot.

Speaker 1 (01:32:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
Next up, we have some Days Online stuff. Eric Martov
stopped by the social media studio to sort of reminisce
about the two thousand and five to twenty fifteen decade
era of Days. This is where they've gotten someone to
sit down every single year. Susan has done it, Dja's
done it, James Reynolds has done it. So Eric's down
to talk about the dynamic personalities that were on the

(01:32:30):
show at the time, and actually the amount of time
they were afforded to sort of shoot scenes back then
and kind of the crazy fun they had. One of
his favorite storylines was the very Vivian a live storyline,
So we go to the detailed talking about that, so
you can go check that out at on Instagram at
days Peacock and then Maggie Sajack took a quick trip

(01:32:52):
to right, okay, Maggie sa Maggie Sajack took a quick
trip to the set to join the cast as they
led us in on a New Salem sweepstakes. This is
a trip to La a special VIP tour autographing Memobilia
and a meeting Greek with some of Salem's heroes and villains.

(01:33:12):
You can actually head to Wheel of Fortune dot com
to enter the sweep stakes. So yeah, go check that
out after the show and last week, if you were
tuning into Jeopardy, you would have seen Days as a
full category. We had Dedra, Lindsay, Lauren, Greg and John Paul,
so that got in on the fun introducing questions, all
of which had a little bit of a tie in

(01:33:33):
to Salem or Day's law in history, so that was
kind of fun of you. We're able to check it out.
A few of the cast has been promoting the clips
if you didn't get to watch the show, so yeah,
really cute.

Speaker 2 (01:33:48):
And then we of course had the Days sixtieth anniversary
celebration party that we were a part of last night.
We were alive for two hours straight. Do we have a
tally an updated tally Tony of the number of views

(01:34:08):
that our live stream has? I think I checked it
just around thirteen.

Speaker 1 (01:34:13):
Thousand m we are at fourteen Wow. Cool, yep, we
are now at fourteen thousand, six hundred and sixty four views. Nice.
And I got a text that said that a lot
of people were leaving comments about it and saying what

(01:34:35):
a great job that we did. And again, I'm just
super happy and over the moon that it worked, that
our internet didn't break and that we were we were
able to We really wanted to do it because there
was no day of days and so this was like
the only way that we could think of to really
bring fans in on the celebration. I know that we

(01:34:58):
weren't able to you weren't able to physically be there,
but it was just a way to like bring everyone
in and it it went. It went over really well.
There were a lot of compliments and shout out to
There is a Facebook group that I think it's the
NBC Peacock Official Days Facebook group that in the midst

(01:35:21):
of it happening and people are like, where can we
watch it? Someone posted the link for our live feed
and so everyone started tuning in then, So thank you
guys for doing that. And again once again, thank you
Dual Fan for giving me the first day appearances of
everybody so that we could show them. Everyone enjoyed that
segment as well, So thanks everybody. Now we can just

(01:35:41):
get like, you know, seven hundred people to always watch
this every week. We will be great.

Speaker 3 (01:35:46):
Yes, thank you to the over seven hundred who joined
us live and watched in and out and commented, and
it was a lot of fun. There was a lot
of energy and not only in the room but also
on the screen for us that yeah, it.

Speaker 1 (01:36:00):
Was really dumb.

Speaker 2 (01:36:01):
I think the live was a great idea because it
got people to understand kind of how they really were
in the midst of the red carpet or the golden
carpet as it was. And you usually, you know, we
turn take these we edit these segments so that you
only see like the pretty pictures are the you know,
the you know, square shots of just you know, the

(01:36:22):
interviewer and the person being interviewed. And this was really
like the wide shot. You got to see people pass by,
you got to see you got to kind of got
to hear behind, you know, who was interacting, if you
were paying attention.

Speaker 1 (01:36:35):
Were trying to get Yeah, yeah, you get. It was
a lot of fun. My favorite moment will always be
when I held up a sign to RSLI and I said,
talk about the carpet and she said, well, this year
the carpet is a gold color, not like last year,
which I think it was blue. And I said, no, no, no, no, no,

(01:36:58):
Like who was your face, favorite person to talk to
on the carpet, like talk about the carpet?

Speaker 2 (01:37:09):
You have to be specific.

Speaker 3 (01:37:16):
I don't know that we were we were writing on
the back of the call sheets that we had. Okay, Like,
first of all, I couldn't see anything. So when you
see my segment and you see me look up, just
know that I'm just nodding my head because I can't
read a damn thing. Either one of them wrote or said.

Speaker 1 (01:37:33):
I can't hear them. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:37:36):
It was always okay, yep, okay, got it.

Speaker 1 (01:37:39):
But we did it, Joe, we did it. Oh wait,
hold on, And that was news and gossip.

Speaker 2 (01:37:52):
Next your will and best in a white board.

Speaker 1 (01:37:54):
I promise I had him.

Speaker 2 (01:37:57):
I just couldn't find him, and I was we have
one when we were doing the who Yeah, we had
like the bubble map and everything.

Speaker 1 (01:38:06):
Yes, I don't know where they are and I was
too stressed about everything else. So there's that, all right.
We've had him waiting long enough, and not just not
just backstage as we rant and rave about days of
our lives, but this bright shining star has been wanting

(01:38:28):
to be on our podcast for quite some time, and
while he felt like he had been denied, we were
just waiting for the best moment to bring him on.
And now is the moment that we get to sit
and chat with you know him as Aaron Green ladies

(01:38:49):
and gentlemen, making his audition Day's long awaited debut. Louis
Tomio everybody, Yeah, guys, did I say it right? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:39:08):
TOMMYO is usually I knew it.

Speaker 2 (01:39:11):
I knew I always ask and yes, yeah we should.
We always ask because it took us. It took us
forever to get Dad Beerygle down.

Speaker 3 (01:39:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:39:23):
I still am very bad with everybody's name.

Speaker 1 (01:39:25):
So so bad. Okay, wait, say it one more time
so that I can get it. Louis TOMMYO, TOMMYO, Lewis,
Lewis Tomio.

Speaker 2 (01:39:35):
He's going to find a way to make because he
he never he is always saying Elia's name, very specifically,
very persist.

Speaker 1 (01:39:44):
So you are now Lewis Tomuele. That's good.

Speaker 5 (01:39:48):
Respect my heritage.

Speaker 1 (01:39:49):
We appreciate that. Look at that, look at that. Well
finally you're here. Welcome.

Speaker 5 (01:39:55):
Thank you guys so much.

Speaker 7 (01:39:57):
I know we were waiting on the right moment and
it just it never was right. But I think I
think we can hit the nail on the head.

Speaker 1 (01:40:03):
Well, I mean, listen, I think what what we initially
started liking about Aaron was that it started reminding us
of because you know, we're old. So we've been watching
Days for quite some time, and you're old too, and
so there was a time where no, you're so old.
And so there was a time where like there was

(01:40:25):
like a teen scene on Days, and so we were
starting to see that again, especially with the addition of Aaron,
and so, you know, we were just like, Aaron is
the cool guy that will pretend to be take and
go off to lacrosse, you know school, while you know,
while he like rendezvous in a cabin with his girlfriend.

(01:40:47):
Why not you know, yeah, yeah, I mean that's a
that's a strong friend. But before we get into all that,
we always like to find out how you're Day's journey started.
Was this the first time that you auditioned for Days
or had you auditioned for Days before landing the role

(01:41:08):
of Aaron Green?

Speaker 7 (01:41:09):
This was my first audition for Days and this is
actually it's a particularly good momentuscation for me.

Speaker 5 (01:41:15):
I'm about to pass well. I was originally only promised
eight episodes.

Speaker 7 (01:41:20):
Yes, in the beginning, you know, you audition and they
book you to say come in and you get a
run to see how you fit and you know how
everything might go and are you comfortable, you know, I
was only promised eight episodes and next week that'll be
two years ago.

Speaker 1 (01:41:36):
Wow. That's I mean, I think that's the great thing
about soaps is that they can say, uh, we're gonna
just have you down because this is what we have.
But then someone thankfully goes, you know what, that Aaron
Green character, we can kind of put them in this

(01:41:56):
and you know, you just kind of keep getting you
so absolutely.

Speaker 7 (01:42:03):
Thank you, thank you so much. I you know, unlike
other shows, you really do have an opportunity to carve
your way ahead with so if you really care about
it and you really get in there. I remember my
first few interviews, I was like really, I was like,
I really care about this, Like I really want to
stick around and want to know what happens. And you

(01:42:23):
can use that paracaustally shoot your way into more storylines
and that's what they want, you know, And so it's
a it.

Speaker 5 (01:42:30):
Was a great come up.

Speaker 7 (01:42:31):
It's for me to finally have my own way from
the very beginning and then being able to flush the
rollout is it's been very very very gratifying.

Speaker 1 (01:42:39):
Yeah, because I mean, I and kudos to Today's and
the writers for finding use of Aaron because there are
a lot of situations where it would make sense for
Tate to call on Aaron or for Aaron to step in.
And then when the family started being built obviously around
around you, because you were you were the first to

(01:43:02):
come on.

Speaker 5 (01:43:03):
I was the progenitor of the Green family.

Speaker 1 (01:43:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:43:07):
Flex, Not everybody can say that they started. I think
that's a big flex.

Speaker 1 (01:43:12):
I mean that's a yeah. I mean that's a huge
flights because then you know then who came next. It
was Mark, Mark, ye Mark, then Felicity and then later Yeah. Yeah,
so it so. I mean you are the catalyst, mister.
I'm only promised eight episodes, and now you didn't know
the whole family.

Speaker 5 (01:43:30):
I do what I can and the people needed me,
and I was there.

Speaker 3 (01:43:35):
I'm curious when when when you sort of went away
and the sort of say retire the character put him
on a break for a minute. Did you was that
a plan?

Speaker 1 (01:43:45):
Did you know that?

Speaker 3 (01:43:46):
Did you know that you were going to go away
and eventually come back? Was it a surprise? Were you worried?

Speaker 5 (01:43:51):
What was I did know I was returning?

Speaker 7 (01:43:54):
You know, and we have these often you see a
lot of a character for a little bit and then
they have you know some sundown the winter arc right
where they go away and they come back.

Speaker 5 (01:44:02):
And for me, uh, it was a bit daunting, right
because I didn't I'm on this set.

Speaker 7 (01:44:08):
It was in my last episode from my chunk, and uh,
when our directors, Janey came went to me, she was like,
we are going to have you back. You're gonna be
off for a while, but we are gonna have you
back it and so it's me. You know, that's good
for any actor here.

Speaker 3 (01:44:20):
Thank you.

Speaker 7 (01:44:21):
You beg for breadcrumbs. But it was it was really
that was very nice here. So I did know I
was returning for.

Speaker 5 (01:44:27):
The second little bit and then things went up from there.

Speaker 1 (01:44:29):
Yeah. Now, well I also want to because you've been
you've been involved in the entertainment industry for quite some time,
I want to say, since you were young, but you're
also still young, like younger, younger child, what what got
you interested in the industry? Like what what made you

(01:44:52):
want to dive into all of this?

Speaker 7 (01:44:55):
Oh dude, I just wouldn't stop talking. I mean when
I was a kid, I just wouldn't out talking. Yeah,
I mean, and that is I remember, Like what actually
happened was my family were in the Carlway McDonald's and
you know, this ad came up and it was like.

Speaker 1 (01:45:10):
You want to be a Disney channel and.

Speaker 5 (01:45:12):
It was all that and oh I remember that.

Speaker 7 (01:45:14):
Yeah, And they were having an open call in Orlando
at Florida, where I'm from, and so we went and
I auditioned and they kept picking me and they you know,
you go through this twelve week course and at the
end they had a bunch of agents in a line
that you did you know at senior monologue with Yeah,
and I from there got a commercial agent and just

(01:45:35):
kept them up from there. And I think about two
years after that, Nickelodeon came.

Speaker 1 (01:45:40):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (01:45:42):
Yeah, and that was a long long time ago.

Speaker 1 (01:45:44):
Well see that that worked out for you. So for
people who don't know, like I feel like this is
very much like an East Coast thing, those little like
model searches, and people would come and they would like
find like the nearest hotel and the can mentioned little
conference room and and you would go in and like audition,
and then you would go to the big one in

(01:46:06):
like a bigger city and that's where all the agents
would be. Oh yeah, I've been to a couple of ones.
Uh like that. It feels like such an East Coast
thing though, because we talked about the people are like, what.

Speaker 5 (01:46:17):
That's funny you say that I haven't actually seen anything
outside of the East Coast, but I mean I'm from
from I'm from Checking Town, Florida. Like, oh, you know,
you've never heard it. So it's like, you know when
that comes to your town, you gotta go.

Speaker 1 (01:46:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:46:29):
You know me, I was nine and my teachers were like,
you gotta you gotta do something, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:46:33):
So we were like, well there we go up.

Speaker 1 (01:46:37):
Yeah, Well so it worked out for somebody. I'm glad
it did.

Speaker 5 (01:46:41):
Yes, yes, we do.

Speaker 3 (01:46:44):
What was it like for your sort of team scene
to come together. Do you remember that first day that
you sort of met everyone? Ashley and then I think
at the time it was Jamie originally and then yeah,
and now Madeline as Sophie. I think back then was Maddie.

Speaker 7 (01:47:00):
Yet we had Madnie and Sophia, Ashley and and Leo.

Speaker 3 (01:47:06):
Leo is actually the first okay got it.

Speaker 7 (01:47:08):
Yeah, first of all, we got it. Bro when I
met Leo, that was so crazy.

Speaker 5 (01:47:13):
I used to be on the playground and.

Speaker 7 (01:47:15):
I'd be like, I'm Jack from kicking it and then
I meet from Kicking It. I had to say, we're
good friends now, but like before, you know, it's when
you're meeting Jack from Kicking It, you're like, bro, he
could kick my leg off.

Speaker 5 (01:47:29):
Now he can literally dragon kick. And it was just
like he's so cool and he's still so cool.

Speaker 7 (01:47:35):
Out of anybody I've met at all in my career,
I think Leo is is probably number one.

Speaker 5 (01:47:41):
Spot for just the coolest person ever.

Speaker 7 (01:47:43):
Yeah, it was a really really great mentoring me in
the beginning. You know, it's daunting to go into a
new universe, especially one that's like established and your new
part in it and it's got a lot of legacy,
and that's it's daunting.

Speaker 5 (01:47:56):
And you have to prepare yourself.

Speaker 7 (01:47:58):
And of course Leo, who was stepping into role, was like, uh,
we had been around. We started around the same time.
I think he maybe hit three weeks before me. Okay,
and he was really good. I give me the rundown
and I remember the teen scene. The first thing we
all had together was I think we were throwing the
football and we hit Matty in the face.

Speaker 1 (01:48:17):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:48:20):
And that I remember seeing even some of the directors,
we're just like we just looked so like a good
teen group and we're like, yeah, this is it. So
I feel it come together as like, all right, this
is probably going to be the squad for a little bit. Yeah,
And of course now with the addition of Ari, things
are even more sewn together. So I do remember my

(01:48:41):
first day it was it was very wholesome and I
felt very relaxed as soon as it happened.

Speaker 1 (01:48:45):
Yeah, oh cool.

Speaker 3 (01:48:46):
It definitely came across because we were saying, we've been
a little leery because some of the past teen scenes
have not been so great, and they've sort of started
and then been cut off because I guess the chemistry
has not been so great. But I think for a
while it was like the Tate and Holly Show, and
we were like, okay, like can we introduce some more
people here, like give them some more friends we need, Like,
let's lighten them up a bit, because that that initial

(01:49:09):
storyline was so heavy with them, and so like I
remember you coming in and we're just being like, oh god,
we like this kid. We like Aaron. He's he's a
good he's what the show needs, and he's a good
amount of it. And diversity here in the groups. So yeah,
I think it came across just as as you felt it.
It came across that way.

Speaker 7 (01:49:27):
Yeah, I did try and intentionally, uh, really hammer home
the relationship between Tit and Aaron, because that is something
I think that is a big cornerstone of when both
of them are having trouble. You know, they have each other,
they live in the dorms, it's the whole thing. It's
so it's like it's everything is everything is is goes
back to the friendship. And we really tried to hammer

(01:49:49):
that home, and I think it definitely paid off with
the rest of it having the glue, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:49:52):
But I think what really cemented it was giving your
character a whole family dynamic to connect because then it's like, Okay,
this is now an established family, this is an established
character that we can expand the universe now. And really
now the teen scene is like, it's not a risk

(01:50:13):
that they're going to go away. We know these people.
They have connective tissue to each other.

Speaker 5 (01:50:19):
Yes, yes, that's a very very good point.

Speaker 7 (01:50:21):
It was a bit hard to not have your family
in Salem, I will say, because I was the only
Green for a while and they're like, okay, so who's
this guy? Am I going to get murdered next week?

Speaker 2 (01:50:31):
Like?

Speaker 7 (01:50:32):
No, If you don't have a lot of your family,
you're like, okay, now I'm on the old shopping block.
But having steadily, one by one my siblings come into
the picture was really good, just to give the role
more to do. And you can only watch Tait and
Holly makeout so many times, so I was really glad
to branch out and have some new emotional things to do,

(01:50:55):
and that was a very.

Speaker 5 (01:50:56):
Welcome gift for me.

Speaker 2 (01:51:00):
Oh well, I'm just gonna make the quick comparison, and
this is gonna this is gonna sound really left field,
but I just now thought of it. I'm gonna make
the comparison between that connective tissue and the original teen
scene to I don't know if you know her, uh,
Nadia Bjorlin, who played Chloe, and I remember when Chloe

(01:51:23):
was brought on. She was kind of also the outlier
in that teen scene group as well, and then they
made the connection to Nancy and Craig and all of
a sudden, the universe just expanded and she had just
this bona fide and then then decades past.

Speaker 3 (01:51:40):
Right right, yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:51:43):
We oh no, go ahead.

Speaker 5 (01:51:45):
I'm interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:51:46):
I was gonna say, we've got to know Adelin a
little bit since we interviewed her, but we definitely front
of the show. Kennedy Garcia is our our our little
our little buddy. Every time we go to things and
get to hang all over. What's it like a film
with her on set? I can imagine the two together
is so funny.

Speaker 7 (01:52:05):
She has a great sense of humor, and it's I
think sometimes we can get a little serious about shooting,
and so when we're all there, it's just fun. And
it's just the most fun thing about you with Kennedy
is that it is easy. It is just like okay,
here we are like. It's a good I would say
Jonah's like that too. It's very very unserious and it's

(01:52:26):
it's very fun. But sometimes you need that when you
especially for family scenes, right, you need that like connectivity.

Speaker 5 (01:52:32):
Anna Lyn, who is one of.

Speaker 7 (01:52:32):
My favorite scene partners ever, is also like that. She's
very very nurturing, supportive.

Speaker 5 (01:52:37):
So I think all of these there's also funny.

Speaker 7 (01:52:39):
So it's just like a great sense of humor and
then everybody has an easy day and we clock out.

Speaker 1 (01:52:45):
I feel like your your personality is so close to Aaron's.

Speaker 7 (01:52:52):
Is that no, it's I was like, you know, yesterday
was our party, yeah sixty uh and I was there,
you know, all black and chains and stuff, and I
made a joke to Ashley.

Speaker 5 (01:53:06):
I was like, this is not Eric, nothing like it.

Speaker 7 (01:53:09):
But in reality I show. I mean, I'm a turbo
nerd like everything. They gave me the Zeno Blade line,
which I love Zeno Blade. So like I like, I'm
I'm there's almost zero. Oh, like it's just me. It's
just I am.

Speaker 5 (01:53:24):
There's there was no I'm a method actor.

Speaker 1 (01:53:27):
So because like this whole time, like just just like
you know, being around you and just seeing you talk
and everything. I'm like, this is just like I feel
like I'm just sitting here talking to Aaron.

Speaker 7 (01:53:39):
Like it's like like I think too, I know, you
take the natural approach to acting, and it's like, well
this is what comes out yeah yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:53:50):
Well how would you like how when when you first
you know, got the role and started like you know,
doing the whole actor thing of like looking at the
script and really trying to dive into the character and
all this, you know, if that was your how you
did it? Like, how would you describe Aaron to us.

Speaker 5 (01:54:07):
Aaron Green, I always say, is probably the most wholesome
person in Salem.

Speaker 7 (01:54:12):
I mean truly, no bad intention, really, but he's boy
next door. He's he's he's very he's just kind. He's kind,
and he just genuines everybody to get along. I always
say he's probably one of the most the kindest.

Speaker 5 (01:54:25):
People in Salem.

Speaker 7 (01:54:27):
And usually they're like, oh wow, well, I'm like, well,
you know people, people are dead, murdered, murderers, zest. You know,
the the bar is actually very low, so it's easy
to be a good person right here. But I always
say he's just your best friend.

Speaker 1 (01:54:43):
Yeah yeah, but you and you know, with with Aaron
just kind of being this this very like energetic, like
go get her like type of person, you did have
some really like grounded, like like really hard core like scenes,
especially when Mark and Kat were in jail, Like how

(01:55:06):
how was that for you to like get that and
and kind of go from this very like kind of
free spirit character to this like very dramatic like all
the Fields, you know, kind of moments Like how how
was that for you? About that dynamic.

Speaker 5 (01:55:22):
Through Aaron's lens?

Speaker 7 (01:55:23):
I mean, I really he's happy all the time, like
I'm pretty much going on, but he does have a
big red button and the soft button that his family stuff.
And so when I'm there and my brother's in jail,
my sister that I know is in jail, you know,
it's just like having anybody talk about his family is
a real trigger point and that was important to hit there.

(01:55:46):
So there was, you know, on the acting Mumba duma side,
there's obviously the emotional steps you take to do a scene,
but what I wanted to it to look like it's flavor,
I was anything having to do with family is a
real brew point for him. And I think anytime anybody
brings up a mom or a parents, he's pretty much

(01:56:07):
the first person to be like, you should appreciate having
your mom or your dad because not some of us don't.
And so he gets very serious, very quickly about family stuff.
And that was what I want to hit for all
those scenes, which they turned out to be some of
my favorite chunks to do.

Speaker 1 (01:56:21):
Oh you really like, I think during that time we
felt for Aaron, like at the fact that like he
was just being hit with like, you know, his brother
is there but now in jail, the sister that he thought,
you know, wasn't alive. It's now alive with a new face.
It was just like all these things that suddenly he

(01:56:42):
was going through, and I think it definitely brought in
a different layer to Aaron, like he just wasn't like,
you know, like the guy that you just input, you know,
the friend of Tate here, or like the you know
Tate is needs this to happen, and he's like, I
got you brough, Like no, Like suddenly we were seeing

(01:57:03):
Aaron go through some like really trying times. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:57:07):
I mean having things given back and then taken away
from him is really I think everybody's like, oh, he's
very savo.

Speaker 5 (01:57:14):
That was more more anger.

Speaker 7 (01:57:16):
I mean he gets his brother back, his sister back,
and then they get taken away and go to jail,
and then, you know, how do you explain that to someone,
and all these potential prospects for him to be happy
and then having them taken away.

Speaker 5 (01:57:30):
Was the core of his like a little bad boy
arc for a little.

Speaker 7 (01:57:35):
Bit, because that was that was I mean, there was
some bloodthirsty lines thrown in there too, like he was
like I'm gonna go kill Clyde.

Speaker 5 (01:57:41):
Weston, like I'm gonna go kill him.

Speaker 1 (01:57:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:57:42):
Yeah, it's crazy because you've never seen Aaron talk like that.

Speaker 7 (01:57:45):
So yeah, there's a whole other side to him that
is very very sensitive when it comes to family stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:57:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:57:51):
But you know what I really like, and I think
the way that this this lends to, not just the
Green family, but the way that all of you play
together off of each other, is that the Green family
seems like no one burden, no one person is carrying
the burden alone. There's no we're not you know, we're
not keeping keeping secrets amongst each other anymore. We're not

(01:58:13):
you know, the type of family that goes off and
does something at least at least unless there's like maybe
like under pain of death the kind of a thing.
But like, especially like this this week's scenes, it was
it was all very like we're just going to talk
through it.

Speaker 7 (01:58:29):
Yeah, I mean what every other family, I mean, you know,
the de mirrors are they have what they're going on?

Speaker 1 (01:58:35):
I mean, they're as the mirrors always have something going on.

Speaker 5 (01:58:40):
Let me tell you.

Speaker 7 (01:58:40):
If you have a scene in that mansion circus, it
is like it is something you've never heard about. But
I think the Green family is consistently proving to be
each other's first priority. And you know, sometimes Cat and
Mark do bad things for that, but on the on
the whole, I think each of them are just looking

(01:59:01):
at for each other and that's that's refreshing to see.

Speaker 3 (01:59:03):
Yeah, speaking of having Aaron taking things away, we sort
of dropped you or got you back and then dropped
you in the midst of this sort of baby storyline.

Speaker 1 (01:59:14):
How much of you are the father?

Speaker 2 (01:59:23):
What did you know and when did you know it?

Speaker 1 (01:59:25):
Because I can because I feel like it's it's it's
for us as fans. It's more. It wasn't more of
a surprise because I feel like we were like.

Speaker 7 (01:59:37):
You knew you, we knew to tell me that you knew,
and trying to get it out of me, don't even
play this.

Speaker 1 (01:59:45):
You know we we we know we well because because
I'm okay, I will tell you the moment that I
went back to and knew, And it was when Sophia
and Aaron were they were like talking or whatever. It's like, oh,
do you want to go back to my room? And
I remember clutching my pros being like oh, But then

(02:00:08):
nothing else was talked about. It was just like a
moment and we didn't know what happened.

Speaker 7 (02:00:14):
There's a funny story about this. Okay, okay, all right,
First of all, nobody's folded. Everybody knew chat We all knew, right,
so we we look the day we shot that scene,
the alleged scene, the jail scene, that everybody was like,
what's happening right?

Speaker 5 (02:00:30):
That scene where I go meet Sophia in the square.
We filmed that scene.

Speaker 7 (02:00:36):
And I, as a joke, I left the set like,
you know, I got on the stage and I went
But that was fun.

Speaker 5 (02:00:43):
What an easy day, guys.

Speaker 7 (02:00:45):
Aaron's a dad, right, And I was like, wouldn't it
be crazy like Aaron's a dad, Like I probably would.
I gonna crash their wedding or something was gonna happen
like and I just walked around being like, hah, yeah,
Aaron's dad.

Speaker 5 (02:01:00):
Can you believe that? And I, you know, I I
saw one of our producers like mm.

Speaker 1 (02:01:05):
Hmmm, because here's we don't know, Like they don't tell you.

Speaker 7 (02:01:12):
But we know when we read the script and we're
so far ahead, so like it's hard to you know,
keep a secret.

Speaker 5 (02:01:16):
But there are things that we don't even know that
they know.

Speaker 1 (02:01:19):
And this us, so now.

Speaker 5 (02:01:22):
Sorry, So we shot that scene and I was like, lol,
Aaron's dad, Yeah, sure whatever.

Speaker 7 (02:01:28):
I was a couple of months later, I think not
even that long, maybe a month or two. I was
at the gym and I get a text from Ashley,
who plays Holly, and.

Speaker 3 (02:01:37):
She goes, did you be the script?

Speaker 1 (02:01:38):
Did you be the descript?

Speaker 5 (02:01:39):
And I went no, no, no, I'm at the gym.
I haven't ready yet.

Speaker 1 (02:01:42):
I'll go home.

Speaker 5 (02:01:43):
She goes, it's you, it's you, and I went, what
do you mean it to me?

Speaker 7 (02:01:48):
And I was like, so how awful that I could
have gone out anywhere, to the Starbucks, to McDonald's on
the corner and be like I'm the dad mom and
just spoil it.

Speaker 5 (02:01:58):
I didn't know to keep a secret.

Speaker 1 (02:02:00):
Yeah, it was like it was because then I mean
when they came back and it was all this hoopla
about you know, like Tates the dad and then like
Sophia didn't want to keep it and and everything, which
shout out to uh, to Rachel and and Leo, like
especially Rachel, because Rachel slayed this whole like storyline, and

(02:02:24):
we were just I feel like us as fans, we
were just like, so, when are they gonna say, like
Tates the dad, I mean that Aaron's the dad because
like like it and I mean Forest split second. I
fel like Forest split second. We were like, oh maybe
we got maybe maybe. But then but then we but
then we questioned so much because you know, Tate was

(02:02:46):
like what I wannt condom and and I was like yeah,
because they helped. They made it a whole point that
and I was like, well, and then it was like,
well maybe she poked holds it, and I was like,
I don't think she hold because it was like.

Speaker 2 (02:02:56):
His like were you know, year of life we have.

Speaker 1 (02:03:03):
We went through the whole gamut till we finally went
back to that scene and we were like, wait, y'all,
remember like Aaron and Sophia had like a moment as
did and so now we've just been sitting here like
uh and here we are, here we are. But then
we also talked about just how I mean, I'll say

(02:03:28):
this for me, I feel like Aaron could have had
even more of a moment with this reveal. And also
it just seemed like everything happened so fast to where
I would have liked a little bit more of like
would he have wanted to raise the bad It's almost

(02:03:48):
it almost seems like he didn't have enough time to
process it before. He was just like I'm just gonna
like give my rights away and like now that now
this baby who you gonna have to keep seeing anyway
because everyone's in small town.

Speaker 5 (02:04:04):
So they love to bring him to me and be like,
hey remember remember yeah, like oh.

Speaker 1 (02:04:08):
Like look, oh look nikkoa you and Danny over there
look at him.

Speaker 5 (02:04:12):
Right, yeah, yes, I I I completely see what you're saying.

Speaker 7 (02:04:17):
And we did have a conversation, you know, when this
is all happening, about taking the time to have it
land with with Aaron. But the the impending chaos was
Sophia's condition. So it did the way we wanted it
to unfold. Was that all right, the decisions on me

(02:04:37):
and I have to make it now because my set,
like my partner can't. So there the the rush really
was a little bit just out of fear to be like, okay,
I'm actually I can't make this decision.

Speaker 5 (02:04:49):
One of the adults should.

Speaker 7 (02:04:51):
And so it was a one of the lines that
I always bring back up when I talk about this
now that I can't talk about it is one of
my lines was it's not like I failed test or
I you know, made a bad decision that like you
can't bam me out of jail. Cat, Like I were
talking to the kitchen with her and be like, you
can't do anything about this. I messed up permanently, And

(02:05:13):
that's just a you know what, I can't I can't
do this myself. I'm going to pass it to the
people that I trust, that that that can benefit from it.
So I think it was really just a quick knee
jerk reaction to be like, okay, pass us off to
people that know what to do.

Speaker 5 (02:05:29):
And it's a very big shameful part of Aaron.

Speaker 7 (02:05:33):
But I anytime I talk about it in universe now,
it's always about like I wasn't ready to be a dad,
so I had to do something.

Speaker 1 (02:05:40):
Yeah, But.

Speaker 2 (02:05:43):
We talked about this earlier that I'm like, everybody just
pulled out the stops on the emotions this week, and
it seems like the resolution just ended up being so
beautiful and what was best for everyone. And I said
early in the show, I'm ninety eight percent there. There

(02:06:06):
is like one two percent of me that is like
where's the other shoe?

Speaker 1 (02:06:12):
Sure?

Speaker 5 (02:06:13):
Sure, yeah, where's the other shoes funny. Yeah, yeah, I
think we are. We all could have. Uh oh, this
is a track you guys put me in because.

Speaker 2 (02:06:32):
Okay, let me let me, let me get you out
of it. Let me rephrase this ahead, let mera This
are Aaron's emotions caught up to his actions?

Speaker 5 (02:06:47):
Yeah, yes, yes, there.

Speaker 4 (02:06:53):
We are.

Speaker 2 (02:06:56):
You can just talk about how Aaron is feeling. It's
okay if you could just talk about how air currently.

Speaker 5 (02:07:01):
As in this week, right we shot a year ago. Yes,
Aaron is we we we we are at a good
place with it.

Speaker 7 (02:07:13):
It's a little touchy like that, you know, it's it's uh,
I'm definitely not done interacting with my child, but I
it's something that you never really though.

Speaker 5 (02:07:26):
When you make a regret that young.

Speaker 7 (02:07:27):
It's not like you can just ah, I wish you
can go back and redo it, because it's just it'll
constantly be there. So I think now there are sprinkles
of Aaron trying to be a good father uh here
and there around. So I think that's his pendance way
of making up for it, and that is something that

(02:07:48):
is consistently brought back.

Speaker 5 (02:07:49):
So you'll see more of that as you go on.

Speaker 1 (02:07:53):
How I feel about it.

Speaker 2 (02:07:54):
Just great because we get to see more of you.

Speaker 1 (02:07:56):
Yeah, you.

Speaker 3 (02:08:00):
Scenes with Aneline, which we definitely praise you and her
for it. Those are so so, so so good.

Speaker 7 (02:08:05):
I I love my scenes to Anaeline is her and
Leo are pretty tired for my favorite scene partners. But
but Annalyin's all of the scenes with her are so easy,
and they're so emotionally full, they're in action. It is
very very easy to be vulnerable with Aneline. And even

(02:08:26):
yesterday at the party, it was like having my big
sister there. It was it was just really our relationship
on and off is it really helps it because she's
very nurturing by nature as a person, and so when
you get to as an actor, when you get to
opposite someone that is very emotionally open and willing to
receive you and then give it back and you you
build a trust and a rapport, and that actually isn't
as common as you would hope. It is so on

(02:08:48):
an acting level actor actors. She's very easy to work
with and all my scenes with her their favorite.

Speaker 1 (02:08:54):
Yeah. Cool. We do have some questions from the fans
in our chat, and so I'm like scrolling through really quick.

Speaker 2 (02:09:09):
Yeah, some of them already, which is good. I was
trying to sprinkle that man a little bit.

Speaker 1 (02:09:15):
Yeah. Well, here's here's one from from Dual Fan. Uh
he as when you first got cast as Aaron Green,
did you ever hear or saw Days of our Lives?

Speaker 7 (02:09:28):
So?

Speaker 1 (02:09:28):
Were you familiar with the show at all? Or did
you have family members that that were familiar with it?

Speaker 7 (02:09:33):
Like I did have family members, Yeah, I did have
that my my mom watched in college. I mean my
grandparents freaked like when I told him so, Like I,
I was not familiar with the universe. Maybe some of
the more iconic clips, like I said, of course the
wedding like I've seen you know, I'm like, I've seen

(02:09:54):
the big ones.

Speaker 1 (02:09:56):
But but you saw which witch clip somebody gets.

Speaker 5 (02:09:59):
Slapped at a wedding I mean carey yeah, yeah yeah,
and then meeting them with also funny, like so you slept.

Speaker 7 (02:10:10):
I had a few family members I watched it, but
I was not familiar with the universe at all, and
it was it took me a while to get the
family tree down.

Speaker 2 (02:10:18):
It's a lot. It's a lot of tree.

Speaker 1 (02:10:19):
Trust me. We've been watching for decades and we still
don't know how the family tree runs.

Speaker 5 (02:10:25):
I got to be in the universe and like I
pretend like I know what I'm talking about, Like.

Speaker 1 (02:10:30):
Be like you only got to be concerned with the
family brand, the Green family brand, Like that's it. When
you start getting into everybody else's branches, like it's too much.
So just know it started with Aaron Green, and then
it started with everyone else, and then it went back
to the mom and.

Speaker 4 (02:10:48):
Then yeah, yeah, I tell you.

Speaker 2 (02:10:50):
I felt I felt bad for Marissa when she if
she first came on because she her her tree has
been particularly complicated because she's got two dads and a
mom and they're all young, and so you forget who
is her grandparents and who are her great grandparents?

Speaker 1 (02:11:04):
Right?

Speaker 5 (02:11:05):
Risa twin love of my life? For real? We we
had a field day on this show.

Speaker 7 (02:11:13):
And yeah, she she was another one too, is like
I don't really know who's related, but you know, when
it's in our lines, you talk about it, like what
do you think you know?

Speaker 5 (02:11:20):
Let's let's go back. So we we had some fun
with that.

Speaker 1 (02:11:24):
Yeah, we have a Christian me. World wants to know
which actor do you wish you got to work with?

Speaker 7 (02:11:33):
I just fulfilled this answer, and I I feel like
I can tell you, guys, I could, I could say it,
Are you sure there's a sniper on the other side
of the screen, deirdrell is holding a gun to my head?

Speaker 5 (02:11:49):
I would say Julie was Susan. I really wanted to
work with.

Speaker 7 (02:11:55):
Aaron and uh and Julie do have a scene together
coming up. That was very fun. I I she is
such a such a smart lady. And we danced yesterday
at the party, uh, and it was it was great.
But I I had never gotten to work with her
until just recently, so that was.

Speaker 1 (02:12:13):
My Yeah, Yeah, we love it. She's she really is. Uh.
She's such a she's such an amazing woman and such
a strong woman and such a an advocate for for
days and a legacy, you know, not not just her,
but the late Bill Hayes. I mean, their story is

(02:12:35):
just incredible and amazing, and she's she's such an amazing woman.
We love Susan. Yeah, I'm looking for Oh. Christian Mewel
also wants to know who is better at karate, you
or Leo.

Speaker 7 (02:12:54):
Leo could could could literally kill me and I would
not know, Like, yeah, walking down the street and he
could headlock me. He's I don't think this is a
frustrating point sometimes because you know, there are some scenes
where like okay, maybe Leon and I have to take
our shirt.

Speaker 5 (02:13:09):
Off or whatever. He is literally sculpted like a like
a battle ready just now. Oh yeah, it's unreal.

Speaker 7 (02:13:17):
He's he still does his karate, he still does I
mean everything he's he's out like wrestling every other day.

Speaker 5 (02:13:25):
I mean, he's just he's great. It's like jiu jitsu
or some Brazilian It's some. I mean, it's like cheap walking.

Speaker 1 (02:13:29):
I don't even know.

Speaker 2 (02:13:30):
Yeah, his videos.

Speaker 1 (02:13:35):
Just beating him up. He's beating yeah, you know. So,
I mean we we have a we have a running
joke of the scene in the in the Horton cabin
when uh, when he was just in his underwear, like
no shirt or anything like that. That's the moment that
Sophia became Dick.

Speaker 5 (02:13:59):
I mean, look, it's Leo Howard.

Speaker 7 (02:14:01):
He's so cool and on top of that cool, Yeah,
he's got but he's a Leo is definitely a better
at karate than me.

Speaker 1 (02:14:09):
I would.

Speaker 3 (02:14:11):
Block my cheek. Are there any other like famous like
soap opera tropes that you'd love Aaron to get into,
Like we've already got a paternity He's already had like
the paternity storyline. What other without without giving away any
future plots, but any any went off the top of
your head. You're like, well, I wish Aaron could experience
this or.

Speaker 7 (02:14:32):
Right, And we know I'm particularly bad with giving away plots,
so I I really it's it's not quite there yet,
but I my, my, the trope that I really want
is some type of super romance in the rain stopping
a wedding.

Speaker 5 (02:14:49):
I mean something like that, Like I want a really big.

Speaker 7 (02:14:55):
And it's I would say I've I've gotten clo, but
it's I'm still waiting on the big one.

Speaker 2 (02:15:03):
Okay, Yeah, I was gonna I was gonna bring that
up because Meghan Bizarro was kind of set is asking
are you bummed that you didn't get an on screen
love scene?

Speaker 5 (02:15:19):
Am I bummed? Real real torn up about it?

Speaker 2 (02:15:24):
I mean, what, look, I know, like, yeah, I know
Aaron had a different opinion than because actors have very
different opinions on this than they're on screen characters.

Speaker 7 (02:15:39):
I actually would say it was a good thing that
that didn't happen. I think there's a lot more chemistry
and if we are gonna go that route, it is
probably better spend with other people. So I think that no,
Aaron and Sophia a big part of it.

Speaker 1 (02:16:00):
He does love Sothia or he was like super yeah yeah.

Speaker 7 (02:16:03):
Yeah, so, but it wasn't the type of it wasn't
the type of romance he was looking for, and I
think he can find that very close by it.

Speaker 1 (02:16:12):
Yeah, well, I think I think, you know, during that
the whole beginning thing, even when it was like, oh,
why don't you pretend to take so, you know Sophia's
or take you know, the whole prom thing that that happened,
but it was like, you know, Aaron's feelings were really
tied in that too. He handled it differently, but we

(02:16:33):
were just like we don't understand, like Teton, Holly, just
go be together, Like why everybody else.

Speaker 5 (02:16:40):
Into I end up with no date?

Speaker 7 (02:16:43):
Actually, yeah, you know what, Aaron takes a lot of
else throughout the I mean, I'm just getting hit left
and right, I think, and in that first.

Speaker 5 (02:16:53):
Beginning a little bit of the high school stuff.

Speaker 7 (02:16:57):
I think I did get slam oed, but come up
and just had ya get better in that in that
department again, it's it's very close.

Speaker 3 (02:17:05):
By, but you were the one we were most interested
in seeing. Like ironically, you know, sometimes that can happen
where they'll put someone front and center and you're like, okay,
I'm I'm I like this, but but what happened to
that character over there? Like bring that person back and
you know what I mean, Like, let's see that person
a little bit more.

Speaker 5 (02:17:22):
So.

Speaker 3 (02:17:23):
I know, again, you guys shoot so far in advance
that it's you have to wait a few while, a
little while to catch up. Usually, like around here, we
have a joke of if we see someone and then
eight months later we get the confirmation of whether or
not they're liked or not, because then we know they
come back or they disappear kind of a thing. So, yeah,
it's nice to see Aaron is is cemented for now, Yeah, seeing.

Speaker 1 (02:17:46):
Yeah, or you know, we we get, you know, announcements
that new characters are coming on and we don't see
them until nine months later.

Speaker 6 (02:17:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:17:56):
Absolutely, the list of things that Tony will not let
go and I do actually have this list written down
on it. Also are were Paulina's shoes and the Blue
Bunny instead?

Speaker 1 (02:18:10):
Y'all do not understand I'm still wondering what happened to
that woman's shoes. That's a whole different thing, Louis. You
don't have to worry.

Speaker 6 (02:18:17):
About it.

Speaker 3 (02:18:20):
There, just know what happened to the demir house. So
when you said immediately fast to that.

Speaker 1 (02:18:27):
Thing, and it was like, oh god.

Speaker 7 (02:18:29):
Every time on that set, it's it's a little bad
luck to be real like it's and you're like, what
could possibly come out of this room right now?

Speaker 1 (02:18:36):
And is it is?

Speaker 5 (02:18:37):
That? It is a daunting, daunting feeling to be on as.

Speaker 1 (02:18:43):
So now you you've been in this role for over
two years now, right, Yeah, what have you learned, like
as Louis about yourself in this realm? Because soaps are
you know, people always make fun of soap operas and
they're like, uh, whatever, but we will, we always say,

(02:19:06):
and especially after talking with everyone, really this is like
the acting stomping ground. Like this is like the acting
boot camp because you got one take to like get
it together and you're you're you don't get to redo it.
You don't get to like, you know, do something different,
you know, or play with it a little. They ain't
got time for that. So for for you like stepping

(02:19:28):
into this and stepping into this this world. What have
you learned about yourself as as an actor and what
have you taken away from from being in soap so far?

Speaker 5 (02:19:38):
That is that's a great question. I think you know.

Speaker 7 (02:19:42):
Prior to being on Days, I just completed to your
Meisner program and that was like real hard and I
was really looking for a place to put it into
action right And Nickelodeon did trade me a little bit
to be you shoot really fast, so that was a curve,
but I was ready to handle it.

Speaker 5 (02:20:01):
I think the biggest thing that it taught me was
it's it's it's a type of locking in. We're like,
I need to be human now.

Speaker 7 (02:20:09):
I know people sometimes people do clown on soap operas
or being dramatic or whatever, but there are a great,
great lesson on the upper echeluent of emotions that people
don't get to feel very often, and portraying that can
be hard because we need it now and you don't
get to have time to build it up.

Speaker 5 (02:20:26):
You really don't get to.

Speaker 1 (02:20:27):
You have to.

Speaker 5 (02:20:27):
You have to be a professional right now.

Speaker 7 (02:20:29):
So I think all of us, even though we joke,
we laugh, whatever, there is an air of when all
of us have to lock you develop a locking in
mechanism for this show when you really have to show
out and trusting that was the biggest thing I learned
getting there and trusting your partner too. Leo Aneline actually

(02:20:49):
like all of them are are very like ready, let's go,
and especially when you have to have a romance anything
with anybody. Marissa was also a a light in my
life for our scenes and really trusting it.

Speaker 5 (02:21:05):
So you just learn trust you in, trust yourself. You
learn the trust process and that's that's earned.

Speaker 1 (02:21:10):
That's hard, hard, absolutely absolutely Now before uh we we
let you go, because I'm pretty sure we'll we'll have you.
We'll have you back for sure tomorrow and I know,
I know you'll be You'll be ready. You've been ready.

Speaker 5 (02:21:28):
I've been sitting in the spitting room for two years.

Speaker 1 (02:21:30):
Chat we we we always like to ask this question
in a way of giving fans what they want, because
everyone wants to know what's coming up, But we like
to do it in a way where you don't give
too much. You just give en up. And that's with
one word. You had one word to describe what is

(02:21:54):
coming up for Aaron, what would that word be? Jo's? Wisely,
because these people are better than the Salem PD and
can figure out a lot of things. Yeah, so so
what what word would you give for what we are
about to see with with the Aaron Love. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:22:23):
And you know what, though, I have to tell the chat.
I have to expose you real quick because it's sometimes
it's hard. We're like, what's coming up?

Speaker 7 (02:22:29):
Blah blah blah, acting like you three will not go
fracking for that answer at the pan can run And
it was when nobody was fooled and it's not like
you get oh no, I can't tell you like you
want to know, like what's coming up?

Speaker 5 (02:22:40):
Tony want we think you're the father? Are you sure
that's a wild theory?

Speaker 1 (02:22:50):
Did I do that? Really? Yes?

Speaker 5 (02:22:52):
And like, oh my god, what a crazy theory. That's wild?

Speaker 7 (02:22:57):
And then I have to like be an actor or
is gonna be like you you know that's I can
see where you might think that be like he knows,
he knows.

Speaker 5 (02:23:05):
So it's hard when you guys are like, you know what,
just give us the one word, give us something coming up?

Speaker 1 (02:23:11):
You already know.

Speaker 2 (02:23:13):
I think we did now I knew. I'll be honest,
I was ninety eight percent there when we met at
our anniversary party in February. Yes, I was like, oh okay,
but it's okay. It's okay because you didn't he didn't
say anything. Guys, don't fire him. He didn't say anything.
I was just like, oh okay. In defense of Tony,

(02:23:37):
that was a that was a very I think his
defenses were down because it was so cold and it
was so rainy that day where we were just.

Speaker 1 (02:23:44):
Like it was so funny.

Speaker 7 (02:23:47):
Ashley is like sweating next to me, being like don't
She's like, my, she has some you know, bodyguard me.
I'm literally the Tom Holland from from then talking about it,
and so they have to put me with someone. So
it was like I think she said, They're like, okay, look,
don't say anything, you know. Like, but I think it's
on set that all of the things I do for

(02:24:08):
social media, like our socialated coordinator Heather, we have a
jouke that my folder is bursting out the scenes because
there's just so many things that I can't talk about
bringing up.

Speaker 5 (02:24:19):
So I'm glad this is finally coming out. I have
like a weight off this.

Speaker 2 (02:24:24):
Yeah, I mean wanted to wait.

Speaker 1 (02:24:27):
Yeah, but also also like, you know, the biggest downfall
is that, yes, they shoot so far ahead that like
you know when when you when you first meet someone,
you're you're like you're like, oh, like I want to talk, Well,
we can only talk about what we're seeing now, not

(02:24:48):
what you shot today. So it's like it then just
becomes like a waiting Yeah, oh.

Speaker 5 (02:24:53):
This was a year ago, okay, right, you know that,
like you have to you have to play catch up
with yourself.

Speaker 1 (02:24:59):
Yeah yeah, but I just I love the number one.
I don't even remember doing that.

Speaker 2 (02:25:05):
But it also remember your defenses were down.

Speaker 1 (02:25:08):
But it also sounds very much like me to like
like come up to someone and be like like this
is just what we're thinking or like what we're talking about,
especially you know when people associate us with the show
and everything like that, and so we'll be like, oh, yeah,
like that's what we're talking about as a dad, and
then I'm like, oh my god, hi, how are you,
and just like we need to be like.

Speaker 5 (02:25:32):
It's really funny.

Speaker 7 (02:25:33):
Though, I was like I really had to lock in
for that speaking of I mean, like I want it
was like it was like getting shot in the face,
and I was like, no, like.

Speaker 1 (02:25:44):
It was really funny.

Speaker 7 (02:25:45):
But I I see all these chats and I want
to be like yes, yes, no, yes, yes, It's it's like,
you know, I want to but I think people are
catching on too.

Speaker 1 (02:25:54):
I think, yeah, yeah, you can.

Speaker 2 (02:25:57):
You can say yes or no to this. Your brother
is in the chat and he wants to know ask
him if he is better looking than his little brother.

Speaker 5 (02:26:04):
You know, it's question because I don't know why rats
in the chat? Okay, Well he's asked me if I
have a better looking little brother.

Speaker 7 (02:26:17):
Oh, I don't know, if I don't know if I
have an ugly little kidding Wow. Here he's a handsome
ladies man. He's got the same geens, so he's you know,
he's got the Italian He's fine, he's fine.

Speaker 2 (02:26:33):
But we.

Speaker 1 (02:26:40):
Like family drama.

Speaker 5 (02:26:44):
Rats in the chat.

Speaker 1 (02:26:48):
Well, lewis it finally happened? Is as good for you
as it was for Wait? You make it. You make
it sound like do we need a cigarette this? No,

(02:27:08):
but we we're glad to We We always love having
you know people on the show because we want you
to be able to like talk about some things that
like you know that like you know, we may not
know about certain scenes or certain storylines. We love to
hear like people's take and so with the reveal that
Aaron is the daddy, you know what you mean. But

(02:27:30):
you know, we wanted to like like hear your thoughts
on it because, I mean, again, it's it was one
of those things where it was like it's a possibility
because we had this one scene. But in true classic
Day's form, they could have just been like gotcha and
like when somewhere somewhere over here where we were like

(02:27:51):
what so so yeah, So no, it's it's great to
hear your your your thoughts about it, and a lot
of people wanted to hear a lot of things. I'm
gonna I'm gonna give a shout out to Jeff R
because Jeff R had had a question and I feel
like we kind of avoid questions that may be forth

(02:28:12):
telling of the future to not put you in any
sticky situations. So don't be hurt, Jeff R. We saw
your question. We're just trying to make sure that Lewis
keeps a job. So that's.

Speaker 7 (02:28:24):
I think it's we we we're at a good point
now where not a lot has happened that isn't foreseeable.

Speaker 5 (02:28:29):
There's not there hasn't really been like.

Speaker 7 (02:28:31):
A big I mean there's been big little twists and turns,
but nothing that I think anybody could guess. But everything
now I think is you're on the right track, Jeff,
Are you are on the You're on the right track.

Speaker 1 (02:28:44):
Have you have you met soap fans? They can they
can they figure out They figure out things before you
even get the script for it.

Speaker 3 (02:28:54):
That is very true.

Speaker 5 (02:28:56):
Happened one time recently, like we were like, wow, how
do we someone know that? I like, ignore it until
it comes out. It's true. I've not met a great
deal of them, but I do know. I do know
that it's the FBI.

Speaker 2 (02:29:12):
Really, just before we came on this show, Justin was
telling me a story just from last night, and I'm like,
I went home, what the heck happened?

Speaker 1 (02:29:24):
I mean a lot? Yeah, oh wait, oh you know what.
I'm sorry. We we skirted over this. I mean you've
mentioned and we keep mentioning that we were all at
the sixtieth yesterday and we asked a lot of people
this question, and now we get to ask you, especially

(02:29:44):
being one of the newer members, like yesterday for you,
like looking around the room and seeing Ken Corday and
his speech and and everything like that, and being a
part of a show that has been on the air
for the past sixty years, Like what does that mean
for you? And especially for someone who they said initially, well,

(02:30:07):
we got eight episodes for you, and then you know
that's it, and now you've been on way longer than
eight episodes. But like, what was when you went home
last night, Like, like what were your thoughts and feelings
about being a part of the history of this show now.

Speaker 7 (02:30:28):
The moment that it hit me was we were ken
Courdick came out to do a speech and it was
it was or a farming speech. It was really good,
Like it was like we were all like like we
were getting we were ready to go to war. And
before he started that though, he asked Deirdre, Suzanne and
Susan to stand up and we clapped because you know,
the Bigtriarch is the whole entire thing, and you can

(02:30:52):
see they've seen every party for the last sixty years.

Speaker 5 (02:30:56):
And they have been.

Speaker 7 (02:31:00):
It's like you can see their legacy standing behind them,
and it was it's given me chills now, but it's
in the moment it was like whoa, it's you are
being handed something and I think this is what makes
a difference between someone that stays on and is well
loved versus some of them maybe dips out early, is
you really have to understand this is taking of a
torch and to respect the hell out of that. Because

(02:31:23):
when we were there at this event, you've seen people
that have known each other for fifty years. I mean,
what was I doing fifty years ago? You know, like
it was it was like, wow, they've been They've been
doing this for half a century, some of them, and
it's it's just crazy. So to see that there and
to clap and recognize them as very old Hollywood and

(02:31:43):
very respectful and they've earned their glitz and glamour, and
so to us, I think the younger people we were like,
you know, we can't even fathom having done something for
fifty years, let alone.

Speaker 5 (02:31:53):
I mean like two years is a big mos so
for me.

Speaker 7 (02:31:55):
Yeah, but when you see them standing there and icons
and legends that they've clawed their own selves to be made,
that was when I was like, I am a part
of some old and big yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:32:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:32:08):
As we all went to Rob's after and take shots
and that was that was when I.

Speaker 1 (02:32:12):
Was and Happy Birthday Robert Scott Wilson.

Speaker 5 (02:32:21):
Which house. It was very fun. You had a good party.

Speaker 1 (02:32:26):
Good good. I mean I feel like, yeah. It's when
you start looking at just the many, many, many, many
actors who have been a part of the show, and
so many who have been on there for decades, it's
like wow, like you know, they have created and kept
going something that's so legendary and so generational because so

(02:32:50):
many families have grandparents that watched, that passed it down
to the next generation, who passed it down to the
next generation, and so it's like it's one of the
few genres where it is very generational and it is
very like within the family to be like, oh, yeah,
we watch, you know, days of our lives and we
have been watching for the I mean, I've met fans

(02:33:11):
who watched the first episode and I'm like.

Speaker 5 (02:33:14):
Yeah, it's insane. It's insane because it's like, Wow, you.

Speaker 1 (02:33:21):
Can't bing binge watch that.

Speaker 7 (02:33:23):
No, I.

Speaker 1 (02:33:29):
I want I want to see some of the older episodes.
I want to see when Marlene was possessed the first time,
Like I want to see that stuff, just relive it.

Speaker 7 (02:33:40):
Yeah, but you like you can see that all in
their eyes when they're there, and and we have our
heavy hitters. Right, we have Paul we ro We lindsay
like all these people are really really good right now
and there you know there are are are leading front line.
But when these three women uh stood up, it was
like they're carrying on off their shoulders.

Speaker 5 (02:33:59):
Is why we're here.

Speaker 7 (02:34:00):
And of course all of our crew was there, all
of that. I mean ken Cord was there obviously giving speech.
Everybody was there. Noel was there, I mean everybody that
They gave us a speech for the new season when
we because we.

Speaker 5 (02:34:11):
Got renewed by the way seasons.

Speaker 7 (02:34:13):
And uh no our director was like, we want He
told us a funny story about how a farmer made
really good bacon and we we we really want to
make all good bacon.

Speaker 5 (02:34:24):
And it was a really good inspirational speech and thing
to just hear.

Speaker 7 (02:34:29):
So in this period of time, Yeah, we're celebrating sixty years,
we're celebrating two new seasons, but really I think what
we're celebrating is we get to keep going.

Speaker 1 (02:34:38):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Yeah. I also just want to shout
out your cousins, who are I think the whole the
whole family, and they and everyone wants to know if

Speaker 1 (02:38:35):
This means you're engaged.

Speaker 8 (02:38:37):

returning faces.

Speaker 1 (02:39:14):
I love it. I love it when they bring people
back and I and I love that there. I like it.
I like when you because it I think it. It
also makes the show feel familiar again, not that it
doesn't now, but it's like when you get to reminisce
with like those characters, it's like, number one, they still exist,

(02:39:34):
