  Speaker 1: feel like this is perfect to explain real quick since
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: we have a couple on the podcast day one who's
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: an actress, one who's a director. And one of the
• 1:57

• 2:00
  Speaker 1: love to this podcast, so let's give a shout out
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: to everyone who's sharing beautiful, amazing kind messages. This one
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: message was not about It was not hateful in any way.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: It just said, I feel like Randall shows Lala so
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: much love on the podcast, but it is not reciprocated
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: on Lalla's end. So let me take a moment.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: I want to say something too. I'm gonna let you
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: take a book, take your moment. Then I'm gonna say.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Thank you, baby.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, Randal, you are my best friend. And I
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: love that we can like bust balls together. But let
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: me say this, you, my love, are like my ride
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: or die. I'm going to reciprocate the love more so
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: that the listeners know what because when I'm with you
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: doing this, it's like the banter. It's like fun. Like
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: no one wants to sit here and listen to me
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: be like, I'm so madly in love with Randall.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: I like, who, I didn't even know. I didn't even
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: know they made those comments. I saw one, like one comment.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: It was one.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Okay. The bottom line is what your fans are trying
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: to tell you is kiss my hand. That's what you're
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: supposed to do, kiss and worship my ass. So going forward,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: I would like you to come in, give me a
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: back massage. Following the back massage, give me lots of kisses, okay,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: and then we'll start our podcast. Could you now? I
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: know I'm dreaming right now, but I yeah, I was.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I wanted to say you got the wrong bit, but
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: but I'm just gonna smile and nod and say okay now.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: But baby, let me say something. First of all, I
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: think that the podcast, first of all for somebody to
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: judge our relationship, meaning solely through a podcast. They're not
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: going to see our personal moments, because that's when we're
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: at home, when we're together, when we're driving here, when
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: we're when we're you know, doing what we do. I
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: think the podcast we're trying to really entertain people and
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: give them a slice of who we are.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: However, I also when Randall's.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Show, are you kissing my ass?
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: I'll kiss your ass? When Randall shows me love, it
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: does not come off as corny or cheesy, like you're
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: really good at wait him. Producer Tim is over there,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: going Tim, well, I don't know about that.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: You're going to question my bike? Oh Tim? Tim says
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: it's not legitimate. No, no, he says it's not. He
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: says it's not that it's not legitimate. He says it
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: might be borderline corny is what he's trying to say.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: So that's what I said. I said, you have a
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: way of making your love shown for me not cheesy.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: On the podcast, Tim's face was like, I don't know
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: about that.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Tim. Let me tell you something. I am more romantic
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: than you will ever fucking.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Be hey, this is not We're not like shooting fucking

  Speaker 1: Big Sir. Right, that's like where you started. So was
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: that before ninety minutes in Heaven? Like you guys were
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: like hitting it off big that was like the first film. Dude,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: can you please tell me about that?
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, tell us about how it hooked up. I should
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: have started there. So I get so fucking excited when
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Kate and michaelaw together.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: Random, Yeah, I'm excited too. Let's just throw all all together.
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: Michael and I met on a film called Big sur
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: in twenty eleven, and it's you know, Big Sir, the
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: Jack Carrowac adaptation. So it was an intense movie for
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: Michael to make because it was like very cerebral and
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: the adaptation of a great, you know, literary hero. And
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: and for me, the dialogue was quite tricky because it
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: was like just like Kero Whac. Michael adapted it with
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: like no punctuation. It was all run on sentences, so
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: he had the actor sort of decide where they would
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: take their beats, how they wanted to set the pace
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: for each care So it was it was a little
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: bit like Shakespearean like that. So I was quite I
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: was pretty nervous. I was twenty eight years old, and like, literally,
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: this is the absolute truth. Like the first day we
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: were filming was quite an intense scene, and I was
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: probably very horrible the first day.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: You've never been as.
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: I'm serious, I was really nervous. So Michael lovingly calls
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: it my fireworks, which means I was like and then
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: he came in and adjusted me. In law, you've worked
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: with them, so you know that like quiet actor whisper adjustment.
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: You know, of course he does. And so he gave
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: me that adjustment, and I, you know, I think I
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: gave him what he wanted.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: And it was Kate.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: Was literally but seriously, you guys, like it was. After
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: that take, Michael looked at his first A D and said,
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: she doesn't know it yet, but I'm going to marry
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: that girl.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I have chills all over my body.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Time out, time out? Hold on, is that really, Michael?
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: It's confirm?
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: Or I saw her on set and I have only
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: known her for probably a minute. At that point, she
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: sat down at the table and she I'm sitting behind
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: the camera as I I am not a real monitored person.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: So I'm behind the camera and I go in there
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: and she does this take, and I go in there
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: and I put my hand on the shoulder. I said,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: don't say anything until you feel like saying it. This
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: is video, this isn't film. Don't We're not burning through anything.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: So if it takes you ten minutes, five minutes, eat dinner,
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: eat dinner, and then when when it comes out of
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: your mouth, it comes out of your mouth. And she
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: sat there and I said to this's go and re action,
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: and she gave a take, and then he said, to
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: my idea, I said, I'm going to marry that girl.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, oh my goodness.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: What an amazing I love that.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Sorry, now it's different than ours, where you like to say,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: well went to bang Town. Do you see the romance
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: of how they sell that story. Can you please try
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: to sell the story like that in the.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Future, most definitely. Now that I just I'm kid you not,
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: I just got chills on the bod. I will do that.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: I will do that for sure, because we did have
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: a romantic moment before you like the black about the
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: bang Town park.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: I know I've heard your story. It's so romantic.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I have to say this. So Kate and I met
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: when we were flying to Puerto Rico on what on acxis.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Sally and on a PG. He's so bougie and.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: We were and I was so nervous because I knew
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: I was playing opposite al Pacino. Michael, you were directing.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: By the way, there's nobody that has made me feel
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: more confident on a set than Michael fucking Polish.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: Ah yeah, so serious.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: And I remember my first name right, totally.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: I love it.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: And we were on the plane ride there and Kate,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: you and I just completely hit it off, like you
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: are my rider, die bitch. I love you so much.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: I love you.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: And you said to me, Michael has a way with actors.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: You're gonna be just fine. So you telling that story
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: minus the part of you know him saying he gonna
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: marry you. I didn't have that experience, but just the way, yeah, right,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: So just the way he deals with actors, he babies
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: them in their cracks.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Well, let me say this as a producer who's now
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: produced three movies as Michael's producer. There is a magic
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: that Michael has. And Kate said this, You did say
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: this to me, Kate, how he like when Lala is
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: freaking out. Oh my god, it's gonna be Butchina, I'm nervous.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: You said, Michael will handle you. And every set I've
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: been on with Michael, he there's never a problem. There's
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: never been an actor. And I've been on a lot
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: of movies where actors come to me and say, this
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: fucking director and is clue. So this director doesn't get
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: it or he doesn't understand. And every actor has the
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: same kind of response, like they feel safe and they
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: feel protected, and and and besides, Michael has an epic vision.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: But Michael, you do have that thing. It's even, by
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: the way, I'll take it one step further, even with producers.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: You handle me with grace and style, because you know me,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: I flip the fuck out when shit's you know, going south,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: and I'm ready to assassinate. And then Michael gets on
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: the pole head No man, no wait, Michael, you get
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: on the phone and you do this always thing with
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: that voice. You go, it's going to be fine, Everything's
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: going to be fine. Okay, good, I'll hang up and I'm.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: Fine, I go, I go. The thing that I have
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: my greatest relationship with Randal is that that is not advertised,
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: is that he's in the mirror. He's in the miracle business.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: And and people who make movies and try and make
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: movies and have a really hard time don't realize the
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: difficulty it is to make a movie. So when I'm
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: granted one of me and Randall decide to do one together,
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: it's a miracle. So you have to treat our relationship is. Yes,
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: there's going to be ups and down. It's going to
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: feel like a Disneyland riot every once in a while.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: It is going to be weird.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: You know, I appreciate that. I agree with you. It's
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: like you and I pushing a boulder that's four hundred
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: times the size of us up this hill, and every
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: time we get it up to a section, it drops
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: down five feet and we have to like get back
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: and do it again. And I do. I do. Michael,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: you handle your crew and your cas with such grace,
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: and Kate, I do agree. He's got this thing, even
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: as a producer, that you just know how to handle
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: when the pressure just starts and you don't fall apart,
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: you don't play into it. You're just like, what do
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: we got to do to move forward? And we do it.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: And that's why we've done three and we're going to
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: do another one because I told you I got another
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: script for you.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: It's like I say to actors, you know, because everyone's
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: always a little nervous the first day, regardless of how
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: many movies you've done or who you're playing opposite. But
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: I always say, Michael will not let you fail, like period.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: That's so true coming from somebody like you, Kate. I
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: want people to listen on this podcast. There are actors
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: like a mil Hirsch, like Kate Bosworth that are very
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: high level, respected actors in our industry. So when somebody
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: says something like that, it's it comes from a place
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: of like, I've been through the ringer on fifty movies,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: so for me to see that it is you know
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: what I mean? And I've been through the ringer as
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: a producer with directors, so it's it is a miracle
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: when you get that relationship that really works.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: So I have a question for you. How many movies
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: have you guys done together?
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, that's a good question, Hibe. I thank yeah.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: And what is that? What is that like? So you
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: guys are married, Like, what is that relationship like when
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: you are on set.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: That's a great question, because you know, it's not like
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: we're two teachers at MIT or some things, you know,
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: but you know we come home saying that. But what's
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: nice is that there's no competition, and I don't do
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: what she does and she doesn't do it I do.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: So we lean on each other. And I'm amazed when
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: I'm watching her work, because it's the same with any actors,
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: same with my love. When I watched Lata, I don't
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: do what you guys are doing. The gift that you
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: have been given is to present work and interpret stories
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: and interpret dialogue that has been written. And it's magic
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: for me to watch. So I watch it as a fan,
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: and so I'm watching it and respecting it, and so
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: I look at Kate. I'm watching it basically as as
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: a fan. You know, you know it's directing and brand.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: But you're now approaching this a lot. You're more of
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: a coach than you are a dictator. You don't have
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: to point your fingers in just you have to coach
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: and tell everybody in the system I work and is
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: you have two hundred people, one hundred and fifty people
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: from different backgrounds to do exactly what they don't want
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: to do. Your job is to get them to do it.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: And how are you going to get people to do
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: what you wanted to do and they don't really want
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: to do it? You know, not everybody wants to be there.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: I agree with you, and honestly, you know, I've you know,
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: I've produced one hundred Plust films, but directing, I've only
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: got five days under my belt, so I don't have
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: the experience you have, but I do. We've had this
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: conversation because you helped me and were a mentor to
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: me when I was going through the pre productions. It
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: is a coaching it is. I found myself looking at
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: the monitor in scenes not even calling action because I
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: was so in the moment of watching the performances. Yeah,
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: they'd be like background ready, and then it's looking at me.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: And then Megan Fox was like, Randall action, are you
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: gonna call it? I was like, you do your job,
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: I'll do my.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: You have you guys ever gotten into it on set?
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Oh that's a good one. I'd love to hear this
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: one time.
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: Remember, but actually, you know, I'll you know, I'll bounce
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: off of what Michael said, which is like truly like
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: The reason why it works so well is that we
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: have so much admiration and respect for one another, like
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: and I think a lot of that had to do
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: with the fact that we started our relationships started as professionals,
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: you know, regardless of you know, I'm going to marry
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: her within five minutes. It was like we both truly
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: on that movie, like appreciated each other's work and the
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: way we work so much that that has never changed,
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: regardless of sleeping in the same bet or not. But
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: the only time we got into it that I recall
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: was actually it was it was recently.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: It was.
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: It was unfortnate nature.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: It was not our Okay, wait before we even go
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: in there, hold on, this is a movie, by the way,
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: I want everybody listening, guys. This is a movie that
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: we have coming out June thirtieth. I produced it with
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: a Meal, hirsh Mel Gibson, Kate and Michael directing. This
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: movie is fucking awesome. Everybody good. Everybody must go see
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: this movie. I am so proud to have done this.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: We had we had a mil hersh a couple of
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: weeks ago, and he was he's so proud of this film.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: You guys.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, you.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Know what we had. So here's the thing. We had
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: so much fun doing this thing. I mean, like, you guys,
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: we were together, you know, in Puerto Rico. It was
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: it was crazy, you know, and it was it was
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: it was so fun. And like I love the movie
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: so much because it does just feel like one big,
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: action packed fun ride with like great character, awesome humor,
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: just like NonStop action, you know, and like it doesn't stop.
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: But you're on a ride with this one.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: And by the way, by the way, you guys, the
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: crazy thing that people don't know until they see the
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: movie is it takes place in a storm and you
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: guys are soaked like with rain machines all day, fifteen
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: hours a day. Yeah, it was brutal.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a perfect intro to the fight.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, tell us.
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: It was no, it was literally, like I think it
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: was like the second to last day.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: It was.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: It was a second to last day of my of
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: my of my schedule, and I I I was getting
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: it was the weirdest thing.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: I was.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: You don't think about hypothermia in somewhere like Puerto Rico
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: with the temperatures, but because we were wet all the time,
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: and you know we're similar with like tiny, tiny girls,
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: you know, like I just don't have a lot of
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: body fat. So like even though it's warm weather, if
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: my body temperature lowers slightly throughout the day, I was
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: getting this like crazy low grade hypothermia. And I think
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: it was just like my physical you know, capabilities were
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: just depleted. And I just like looked at Michael and
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: I can't think it was just that right, it was physical.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: I took him over the parking lot, I took him
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: out in the parking lot. I hit the wall. I
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: was like, I can't do this anymore.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Oh my goodness.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: It's not a fight. It's not a fight.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: It was just it was like.
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: I can't even say by Yeah.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: It was a moment of Kate hitting her breaking point
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: and Michael had to toughen her up a bit, you know,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: like you got this.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: He looked at me and he was like okay, and
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: you know, Rander, you know this, He's like, okay, what
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: do you need?
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: You know, right, That's that's the gift he has, Kate.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: It's like he just knows what to say when you
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: want to go to war. Like you're looking at him
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: and you're ready to scrap, and he goes, all right,
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: what are we gonna do?
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: You know, I mean it takes it takes so much
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: for me to get to that level. But it's like
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: and I for me to admit that I was physically breaking,
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: like that's actually what pissed me off war like, you know,
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: like it was that that I was like, I have
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: to say, how like, you know, weak I'm feeling And
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: that was the thing that I like made me like
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: so mad. And he just looked at me and he
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: was like, Okay, let's figure it out.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: That's Michael. That is like, if anybody's listening, that is
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: the greatest summer of who Michael is. He just he
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: has this thing. Not it takes a lot for people
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: to have it, not everybody has it, but he has it.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Like he can just look at you you want to scrap,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden you're putting your sword
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: down because he just says the right thing, like, Okay,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: I'm going to be more rational. Of course it's true.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, I want to dig into literally everything about
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: you guys. Let's take a quick break and we will
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: be right back with Kate Bosworth and Michael Polish. We
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: are back with Kate Bosworth, and this is Michael's idea
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: for me to reintroduce him as Michael motherfucking Polish.
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so now it has to be given the motherfucking love.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we love that.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: My sponsors would be like, perfect, we love the new name.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: So let's really quickly back to Force of Nature that
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: is said to be released this year in June thirtieth.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: But you guys also have things that are going on,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: which not that all of your films are not important,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: but I remember, Kate, you sent me this trailer for
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: a film that you and Michael did called No No, which, yeah,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: correct me if I'm wrong, is short for no Name,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: and it's about human trafficking, correct, And what tell me?
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Tell me about how you guys made this film. You
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: having a passion for getting human trafficking out there.
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah so, and thank you so much for supporting supporting us,
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: by the way, because it really is like this is
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: the the most independent film can possibly be made. So
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: Michael had been at work one day in Los Angeles
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: and he drove home and he walked into the door
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: and he said to me, you know, I just heard
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: this story on on the radio that was talking about
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: a sex house that had just been busted with a
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: bunch of young girls, you know, as the sex trafficking victims.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: And he said, you know, where where where was this
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: house that got this sex trafficking house that got busted
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: on Western It was in Los Angeles.
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and well and that your reaction was exactly
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: his reaction, which was, you know, we had no idea
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: that this was happening so frequently, you know, right, you know,
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: in our neighborhood, you know. And so he, you know,
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: he said, I'd like to dig into this a little more,
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: and I think there might be you know, a story
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: to be told here. And he did, he really, you know,
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: he went into the research quite deeply and came came
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: back to me and said, I'd like to write a
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: screenplay that's a narrative story about one girl starting in Honduras, Okay.
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: And essentially, you know, his his idea was that, look,
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of great documentaries on human trafficking and
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: sex trafficking, but it's a tough subject, right because you know,
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: you kind of you bring it up and people are like, oh,
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: I kind of know what it is, but like it
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: it's so heavy.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: It is, and people feel uncomfortable, and people are very
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: unaware that this is happening in our neighborhoods. They think
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: it's something that's happening, you know, in other countries.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: Right, No, exactly, And and you know, it happens behind
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: closed doors for a reason. It's sort of like when
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: you kind of, you know, crack that door open, people
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: are like, oh, that's such a monstrous thing that it's
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: difficult to look at. But you know, I do think
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: that part of our responsibility as storytellers is to you know,
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: it is to shine a light on things that are
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: difficult to discuss sometimes. So he though he was aware
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: that it was going to be a kind of a
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: tough subject matter to, you know, to approach. So he
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: he came up with the idea of starting with one
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: girl and allowing the audience to get to know her
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: in her you know, hometown of San Paedri Solo, which
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: is you know, known as the murder capital of the
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: world in Honduras, and you you just meet her in
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: her circumstances and can understand start understanding the how and
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: the why something like this can happen. And that when
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: a young cute guy who meets her in her town, says,
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: you know, you don't you have your dreams ahead of
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: you shouldn't be living here. If I have an aunt
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: in America, I can get you to her and you'll
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: have a life. You can live your dreams. You know,
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: you can see how something like this happens with coyotes
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: praying on the most vulnerable you know, of humanity. So
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: it was really about I always say that Michael approached
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: it with the sort of trojan horse approach, and that
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: you fall in love with her, and you actually fall
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: in love with the coyote because you don't know he's
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: a coyote until about seventy percent of the movie Wow.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: You when you start kind of you start realizing that
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: something's a bit weird, and he then ultimately sells her.
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: So for about seventy percent of the movie, it's like
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: this beautiful coming of age road trip movie and you're
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: kind of like you're just on this ride. And of
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: course the way Michael, you know, he shot at himself.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: You know, he picked up a camera and you know,
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: literally photographs the whole movie while directing Wow. And and basically,
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: you know, your heart breaks with hers as you realize
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: that she's being sold into human trafficking. So it was
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: a deliberate approach to the subject matter so that people
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: could most of the time they see the result. You
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: hear the sex house that's been.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Busted or you right, you don't know the journey of
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: how it all.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: Do the journey, And I think that like, once you
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: understand the why and the how of something, you can
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: start understanding the human being and that ultimately create more
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: empathy for the situation rather than just turning your back
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: on something that's difficult to discuss, you.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Know, right, And you and Michael funded this film on
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: your own. Y, yeah, I know that. And where can
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: people watch? Nonah?
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I think it's on it's been to
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: be honest, it's been a little bit, but it's it's on. Yeah,
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: it's on iTunes and I think it was on stars
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: ro Well, sorry, ul, I should have had that.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: No, that's okay. This can I tell you? This podcast
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: is so like informal, Like it's not like I'm sitting
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: up here like I'm working on CNN interviewing the dog.
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: I would say the best place to try and find
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: it on iTunes right now. It's it's such a I have.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: A question was was was that one of the most
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: fun movies you've ever had? Because you guys fund it yourself.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: It was your baby, you know, no films about or
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: and the message was it was it like one of
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: those moments or you know what was the experience like,
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: you know, being everything on the film?
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, honestly, I had to stay in Los
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: Angeles because I was I was a producer. I was
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: producing producing the film, and I was allocating the funds
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: and green lighting the funds while Michael was obviously directing
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: and shooting the pictures, so he was really focused on
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: the creative of it.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: Oh wow.
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: And because he was shooting in Honduras, all through Guatemala
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: and then across Mexico, so truly the most dangerous places
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: in the world. And he had a crew of like
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: he had a crew of like four people. It was
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: the actors and him. Yeah.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Wow, I'm very impressed. And I can't go on without
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: acknowledging the fact that in twenty eighteen people included you
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: on the list of twenty five women Changing the World
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: for your activism in the area of human That is amazing.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: I want to get one, you know it?
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: Oh Man started doing something, Randall, Michael can write you
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: a letter that Michael Michael, I need a reference letter
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: for people to thanks buddy.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: We've kind of put your money where your mouth is
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: moment and Randall, you know that feeling. But when you're
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: really throwing down for something you care about and you
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: know matters in the world, it's it's that that's the
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: feeling that's incredible. It's like understanding that you know with
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: with this piece of art, that there's the opportunity to
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: affect lives.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: But how and how empowering is that that you stood up,
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: didn't ask anybody else, just did it yourself. I mean,
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: there's there's something you're freeing about that I love very Yeah.
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know you're right because you're like, well, if
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: I want this, then you know you don't have to
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: ask anybody, right, you don't have to.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Go teach or can I get that extra light that
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: I want on Friday night? Exactly?
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, totally. And actually, because because I had that experience,
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: I sort of like quote unquote the bank, I I
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: honestly felt as as I started to produce more like
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: I had a better relationship with studios and producers because
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: you understand certain.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: I mean I was like, listen, I've done it. I
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: know how it feels. I know how it feels to
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: have someone ask you for this and you not wanting
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: to do it, but sometimes having to.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: You know, would you do it again?
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: I would?
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's really neat.
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: I love when actors are just people in front of
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: the camera switch and produce, because, like you said, there
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: is an understanding. But also you come from being on
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: a movie set since you were who knows five years old,
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: and like, you know your way around. It's not a
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: foreign thing for you to produce. It's just now you
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: have all the control and integrity and all that stuff,
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: so especially on something that you believe, you know so fondly,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: and so I think that's awesome.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: Thanks guys, so thanks so much again for supporting it. Well,
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: I really appreciate that, dude.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Of course. I think it's a topic where I think
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: most people were kind of introduced to it when they
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: saw the film with Liam Neeson. It was like an
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: action pact movie and you're like, oh my god, okay,
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: we need to be careful. And again, like you don't
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: really see the nitty gritty of it. You just see
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: like it was an action packed movie, and for me,
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: when I saw that as a young kid, I was like,
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: oh my god, human trafficking, Like I had no idea
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: that existed. So the fact that you're taking us through
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: like how this really goes down is just amazing. Like
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: I really, I really appreciate you bringing light to something.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: You know, You've done amazing films you started. Your breakout
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: role was It's still one of my most favorite movies,
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: Blue Crush, And you know, like I just love.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: That movie too.
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: It's so funny lo lot because people ask me sometimes
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: they get nervous, like embarrassed to say that, and I'm like, no,
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: that like that movie is like I always call it
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: like one of my like artistic organs.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Okay, I love it.
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: It's like my heart, you know, because it's like I
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: cared so much about that movie, and I I mean
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: it was it was an absolutely crazy, beautiful experience. But
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: I'm that was you know, I'm so glad people continued
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: to be inspired by it.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: You know, that was your like breakout role if I'm correct, Yeah, yeah,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: it was. And then I'm kind of a dummy. Was
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: was Blue Crush? Before Tim weigh in on this, if
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: you know, was that before remember the Titans?
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: No, remember the Titans before? It was before I was
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: like fifteen or sixteen when I did remember the Titans,
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: and then I was I was a fine.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: I'm a creative, I'm a cinematic genius.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: I know I should have looked at you instead of
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: I am. I am an efficient to watch like people
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: like Kate who they have all of these amazing moments.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: I just find it very inspiring when they take their
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: platform to start doing things that really make a difference
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: in this world.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: Oh thank you, Junnie.
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: I appreciate that.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: You're so welcome, and let's let's just pivot, pivot onto
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: even more incredible things that you're doing. You recently launched
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: a new website called Kindest Tell me about this?
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, First of all, before you say it,
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: hold on, sorry I ruined that introduction. But I am
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: such a dummy. I was like, what is kind dot st?
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: How fucking idiot is That's amazing?
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: I swear to god, kid, I was trying to figure
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: this out, like kind dot established kind kind this because
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: you're smart and creative and I'm an idiot.
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: Well, she did get accepted to Princeton let's just like
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: not freak out.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: She's smart. And I went to film school keep going okay.
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: No, actually, Randall, you're you're you are, You're picking up
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: on like what I was playing on, which is so
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: I was really fortunate to have parents that raised me
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: to handwrite thank you letters. And at the time, I
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: was like, oh, I just found it so painful to
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: do when I was like thirteen fourteen, But as I
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: got older, you know, one of the I think one
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: of the reasons why I started to make a little
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: bit of a mark with people because I moved out
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: to LA when I was eighteen years old, and like,
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: knew no one, you know, so I would I would
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: write thank you letters to like casting directors and you know,
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: if a producer happened to meet me, I would write
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: a thank you letter, and it just wow, you know.
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: I even suggest that to up and coming actors, like
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: they ask like what could they do, and I I
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: always say, you know, you can easily different and shehat
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: yourself with with something as simple as that, you know
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: what I mean, and like to say thank you for
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: your time. I really appreciate your meeting. And it's true,
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: it's like everyone's busy and you know, to to just
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: stop and say thank you will make a difference. But
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: I always signed my letters kind as Kate, and so
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: the website itself came from my actual like you know, signature.
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: But to play on the actual name of it, it's
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: a place established kind So to put the dot after
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: the D is sort of a play on all of that.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: Oh, I love that. I love that, and so so
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: and very no.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: I just I want to know, like why why you
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: decided to start this and launch this website? Like what
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: what was the meaning behind all of it?
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: You know, I've been conceptualizing the space for a little
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: over a year. My grandmother passed away a little over
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: a year ago, and you know, she's, you know, the
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: most important person in my life. And it was just
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: a really heavy loss and when I certainly the biggest
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: loss I had as an adult. And I just found
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: it really difficult to process it in today's world, right,
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean, which is you have this
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: this heartbreak or this gaping loss, and yet you know
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: you have emails answer and you know someone wants you
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: to look at something on Instagram or whatever.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Life doesn't stop.
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: Life doesn't stop. And yet so it was It was
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: a real kind of disconnect for me, and I thought,
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: if I could create a space that I can communicate
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: a little deeper, lean into the vulnerability, expose myself a
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: little more, talk about things that are interesting, talk about
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: things that are a little difficult to talk about, but
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: all through the lens of kindness and love, and you know,
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: not not in a big at some cheesy way, but
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: really just saying hey, like let's look at let's look
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: at this side of the coin. It helped me, like really,
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: it helped me move through that time of my life
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: understanding that I was going to create something from it
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: and I and I was really nervous to do it,
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: to be honest, I was nervous. Yeah, I was nervous
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: to do it because people might know me is you know,
• 41:04
  Speaker 4: I mean, you guys know me really well. But I
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: think you know, you're exposed. I'm exposed as an actress.
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: I'm exposed as as someone of notoriety.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: But oh, but you like putting yourself out there, yeah, really, like.
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: Hey, you know, this is this is me, this is
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: Kate the human and you know, these are these are
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: things that are tough things to talk about or you know,
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: to talk like great.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Agam But you're right it because you know what you're
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: known as, Kate, glamorous movie star fashions, right like.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: Going to the met Gallas, starring in epic films.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: But it is brave of you to put something out
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: like that because I think today, with what's going on
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: in the world, it's more relevant than ever right now.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: And I think it's very cool when people like yourself
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: who don't have to do this, like you literally could
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: sit home, take the phone call, show up on the movies.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: You know, do do your thing, do what you do.
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: You know people know you as. But when you pivot
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: and do something completely out of the wheelhouse and for people,
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: you're doing it to send a message and bring people together,
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: it is brave and I think that's very commendable. It's
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: a big deal because you're you're doing that out of
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: your passion. You're not doing it because somebody, yeah told
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: you this is what you're supposed to do. And I
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: think that's that's very brave.
• 42:14
  Speaker 4: Thank you so much, And you're right, Randall, it is.
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: It's it's a real passion project, you know, labor of love.
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: It's literally myself. I write every word. The design is
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: everything is is you know, wow decided. I mean there
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: there's no big like production team. It's myself and like
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: two girlfriends who are so amazing to help me with this,
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: you know. But but it really is. It's when I
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: said in my founder's leto, this is a handmade destination.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: I really mean it.
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Wow. I love that. I love that. I love that.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: It's like you're not fucking busy enough already, and then
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: you throw this new company and it's like you really
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: are how to common causing it. But I think it's
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: amazing because I think that, you know, you're always creating.
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: I know you for that. I know you're always trying
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: to be you know, in the front lines and groundbreaking
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: and roles you choose and things you do. And I've
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: always been mad respect from from eighteen years ago and
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: even when we just worked together recently on this movie.

  Speaker 2: It's always You're always evolving. I've never hung out with
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: you or you and Mike Michael where it's like kind
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: of the same. It's always different, it's always unique. And

• 43:29
  Speaker 3: If there's not laughter between us, I don't know what

  Speaker 3: I mean. If we're not. If we can go months
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: and I can walk into your office and we just
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: start that.
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: And it's like yesterday, it's like yesterday for all of
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: a sudden, That's what I love. Like even we got
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: on when we traveled to Puerto Rico, hanging out together
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: for the you know, it's like it's like it was
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: yesterday on Wonderland or ninety minutes and half.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: A true friendship where you can pick up where you
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: left off.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: Because everybody gets busy. Everybody's got family and this and
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: work and blah blah blah, and but you you know,
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: it's like when you could pick off a pick up
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: where we left off and it's the same. That's where
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: you know the friendship.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: And we're very comfortable with our job, we know our roles,
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: we stay in our lanes exactly when we laugh. It's
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: really about friendship. It's you know, I remember sitting in
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Albacino's living room with you, a big deal.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: That I was there. Hold on, I just want to
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: say we were in al Pacino's living room, yes, you
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: by the way, we we went on I want to
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: just set the tone and then Michael waiting to finish.
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: We walked in. There was no air conditioning on. You
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: know that, right, Michael, Remember it was one hundred degrees.
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: And we sat and I thought it was going to
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: be like a thirty minute little coffee meeting that we
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: had to catch up on some notes on the movie.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: How many hours were we there? Oh my god, we were.
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: We were We were into the We were into a
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: couple of digits easily.
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: We were there a long time.
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: What's amazing is how fun those moments to me are,
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: and they're not stressful moments that yeah we're it's you know,
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: it's it's a guy sitting at a table and sitting
• 45:03
  Speaker 3: in his couch and go, yeah, we're all with al Pacino.
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: But how easy we flatten that and make it between friends,
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: and you know, it's creative. And and we were talking
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: to Al about money and making money and because he's
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: had some financial things where he made a lot of
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: money one time, he did make around of me at
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: certain times and and Randa, you said, you know, living
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: on a budget and looking at budget and he go,
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: and you both think we he was like, don't want
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: a budget, just make more money.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's amazing. I want to have that.
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: Outlet you know. It's great. Great, then I'm fucked. Okay,
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: but I will say, you know, Michael, it is always
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: that way. And even sitting in a room with the
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: giant of al Pacino, it does feel like friends hanging
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: out trying to create and fix things, like when we're
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: working on the movie and trying to make edits better
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: and stuff. And I will say that that's why I
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: text you the days said of another script for you,
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: because I feel like if we're not doing a movie
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: every year together and Kate and all of us or
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: every year and a half, then we're then we're screwing

• 53:15
  Speaker 2: lies you have in this movie?
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't even I didn't even think I still
• 53:20
  Speaker 3: have it. But I filmed your mom talking about you
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: because I wanted to send it to you one day.
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: I said Randall was an actor and he could act,
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: and he was so good, and she's just went down
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: the list and I and this's the only time I
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: send it to you. This is the only time you
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: ever never responded.
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, you have to send it to me. I need
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: to see it.
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: No, No, it was great because I go, of course,
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: you're not gonna respond to me. That's your mom saying.
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: In that Wait, did his mom say he was a
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: bad actor?
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: You're gonna go there, he was a great actor. Lies, Lala, lala.
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: I was, okay, I'm gonna tell you right now, I
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: get it. Don't do this. We're not doing this today.
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now. I'm looking you in the eye,
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: right now, look at me. If we go about it's
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: a great actor. When I was a kid and I
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: was not the best actor, but I was good. I was,
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: but I didn't like it, and I decided that my
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: obsession was always movies, and I chose to pivot out
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: of acting okay, And I think it was for the
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: betterment of the world because people like you, Kate and
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: every other actor out there. I give Mad respect. Like Michael,
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: I'm very much like Michael. I could never do it
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: at the level you guys do it at. I give
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: you Mad props. It's a gift, it's a talent that
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: you have to work on and a skill. And as
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: a kid, I think it was just fun and I
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: was good at it as a kid, but it definitely
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: was not my calling. And when I walked on to
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: my first movie set at nineteen years old, I just knew.
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: I knew that that's the last thing I'm going to
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: do is be an actress. So I save the world.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: I save the world from it.
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I want, I really really want you to
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: be in front of the camera for one of my
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: I can see what you can do. It'd be awesome
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: for you just to go tucking off. I mean, like
• 55:00

• 55:14
  Speaker 2: least four shots of Johnny Walker blue. I will try

  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: Do you see how good he is? You know how
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: many people have asked me because you know, obviously I
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: have a larger than like personality. They think that translates
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: to acting, which it doesn't. But so I always say
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: no because I have respect for people that really can act.
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: But Michael just manipulated me into saying yes. That's how
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: good he fucking is.
