  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I hadn't watched it religiously. I had

  Speaker 1: It really is.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, it is why. I mean, I haven't

  Speaker 2: so many texts. I'm like, yeah, it's my favorite show.

  Speaker 2: But it was great. And I mean, gotta mention shooting
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: in LA the best the best.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: You're right, You're absolutely right. You know. Ironically, my son,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: one of my sons, Dominic, is also in The Lincoln
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Lawyer at the moment, he's doing a little recurring characters.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: So I know when I told people, I didn't realize
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: it was such a bit. It was like the number
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: one show yet globally and globally that's crazy. I know,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: that's crazy.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: Are you are you?
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Did you already do your your your stint?
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: All done it, Airdy. It was really a great experience.

  Speaker 2: It's really fun.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he might have scenes with you
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: and stuff because he's doing it right now.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, too bad.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah. One of your first roles, of course, was on
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the iconic Nick show Are You Afraid of the Dark,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: which featured all kinds of stars, yourself, Ryan Goslin, Nev Campbell,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Melissa Joan Hart, my old buddy. What do you remember
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: about that time?
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Oh? Oh my god, I was like, are You Afraid
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: of the Dark? I was seventeen. It was literally like
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: one of my first lead roles, Like it was my
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: episode and it was a thrill. We were shooting in Montreal,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: it was in the summer. It was so hot and
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: it was great. It's so funny how that show keeps
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: popping up. Yeah, I think because you know, there's this
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: like a revival of all things somewhat, and that keeps
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: coming up.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, something else that keeps coming up. I'm sure
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: people approach you all the time still is entourage, and
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: that seems to always find like a new audience and
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: our next generation. So I'm sure people have mentioned that
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: to you all the time as well. Huh.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of wild, Like it's wild that you
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: know now, like a whatever, nineteen eighteen, nineteen twenty year
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: old we'll watch it and they're obsessed, like they identify
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: with one of the characters the way that you know
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: they did back.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: When it was it's the best, It's the best, and
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: it correct me if I'm wrong, But it came out prior.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: To social media, right, yeah, prior, So that's all. That's
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I think what's captivating too to see that, just that
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: that little time capsule and where you can really go
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: out with your boys and enjoy yourself and you have
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: to talk and you have to go up to a
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: girl if you like her and you want to.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Talk to her. Why am I just swiping? And all that?
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: That's like that's feeling.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: After and it's so interesting because if you watch the
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: episodes now, I mean like phones on the show were
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: literally to communicate. There was no social media what you're saying,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: which translated to set too. Like we weren't instagramming, we
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: weren't like we were able to be more present in
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: a way.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly not.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: That's the good old days.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's right, they were the good old day. And
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: last thing I just want to point out too, because
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: you're big with philanthropy and things like hope for a congo,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: colon cancer, anti semitism. Is there any projects you're involved
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: in right now you want to mention right now?
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: You know, it's still sort of all the same things
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: I would say probably, you know, being very vocal about
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: anti semitism is taken front and center these days, as
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: you could imagine. But you know, I feel like that's
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: just an ongo ongoing, lifelong thing and yeah, just doing
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: what I can.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Well, good for you, Good for you. Nice catching up
• 6:01
