1:24
Speaker 1: of our lives, like everybody.
1:25
Speaker 5: Was like, oh, Chad Michael Murray, Chad Michael Murray.
1:28
Speaker 1: Girly.
1:28
Speaker 4: I don't know. I think it was pretty even more.
1:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, I felt like I was an outlier that I
1:34
Speaker 1: like Nathan Scott.
1:36
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I think it's a pretty fifty Yeah.
1:39
Speaker 1: Yeah, dang, okay, okay, well please do the honors.
1:43

1:47

1:50
Speaker 6: Yeah.
1:55
Speaker 4: Wow, Yeah.
1:56
Speaker 2: Tanya is just she can't even believe that y'all are here,
1:59
Speaker 2: to the point where she thinks someone.
2:01
Speaker 4: Set up a fan of our podcast at this up
2:04
Speaker 4: because she just can't believe it. How else could it happen?
2:07
Speaker 5: I mean truly, I was like, somebody in their lives
2:12
Speaker 5: listens to this podcast, we heard about you.
2:15
Speaker 6: We are currently shooting season three.
2:17
Speaker 3: If everyone's doing great, and this is a bit and
2:20
Speaker 3: maybe you guys are getting the wool pulled over your eyes.
2:25
Speaker 7: Are you actually shooting?
2:26
Speaker 1: Are you actually shooting season three right now, not yet,
2:29
Speaker 1: we'll get there the can Yes, season two and coming
2:33
Speaker 1: out on Male eleventh.
2:34
Speaker 6: If this hasn't aired already, No, this will air.
2:36
Speaker 5: This is going to air before.
2:37
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, so momentarily, can we let's just jump right
2:41
Speaker 2: into that because we will dive back into the past.
2:44
Speaker 2: But since we're on the topic of current days and
2:47
Speaker 2: what y'all are working on, can we jump into that?
2:49
Speaker 2: Because first of all, y'all are best friends in real life?
2:52
Speaker 4: Is that right?
2:53
Speaker 7: We try to tell people that you know, you put
2:56
Speaker 7: the best pressure. We like to keep it CASU one
3:02
Speaker 7: years and for best and we know each other for
3:04
Speaker 7: nineteen we get there. Yeah, true, true, Yeah.
3:07
Speaker 4: Good friends.
3:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, how did the concept for the show come about?
3:14
Speaker 2: And then I want to talk about how y'all were
3:15
Speaker 2: able to get it made and raise the money for
3:18
Speaker 2: it because my fiance is and she just directed her
3:21
Speaker 2: first feature film and watching her do the process of
3:25
Speaker 2: getting it made and the money and all the things
3:27
Speaker 2: that went along with it, it's a miracle that anything
3:30
Speaker 2: gets made basically.
3:31
Speaker 3: So, oh, I'm gonna let James take this, but I
3:34
Speaker 3: will say that the very beginning he came over to
3:37
Speaker 3: my house with a piece of paper that was folded
3:39
Speaker 3: up in his pocket, and we had to catch up
3:41
Speaker 3: chat because you know, we're best friends.
3:43
Speaker 6: We need to make sure everyone's okay. And then he brought.
3:45
Speaker 3: Out the piece of paper and said, Hey, this is
3:47
Speaker 3: what I'm thinking for the show, and I love him
3:49
Speaker 3: to take it from there.
3:51
Speaker 7: Wow. Thanks man. So everybody's just relaxed for the next
3:55
Speaker 7: forty minutes. No, I'm just kidding. Yeah, look, we yeah,
4:01
Speaker 7: you know, like you just said, like, you know what
4:02
Speaker 7: it's like. You've seen what it's like when somebody's trying
4:05
Speaker 7: to pull their project together. I think equally as sort
4:08
Speaker 7: of difficult and time consuming can be the process of
4:11
Speaker 7: just like sort of writing a script or a pitch
4:13
Speaker 7: and then taking it out to pitch it to people,
4:16
Speaker 7: to ask for permission to make it, right, to ask
4:18
Speaker 7: people for you know, studios or production companies to make it.
4:22
Speaker 7: And we had an idea that was very very we
4:27
Speaker 7: could shoot a pilot for it. We knew we could
4:28
Speaker 7: shoot a pilot for it, a pilot episode for it
4:30
Speaker 7: in like four days, right, and we only needed like
4:34
Speaker 7: actors and our locations that we literally live in. And
4:38
Speaker 7: we just kind of realized that we had the resources
4:41
Speaker 7: to do this. We just needed to pull it together
4:43
Speaker 7: as a production. We could shoot it for very very
4:46
Speaker 7: cheap and we would have at least a pilot to
4:48
Speaker 7: shop instead of a script, right, And so that's what
4:51
Speaker 7: we did, and we ended up taking it out and
4:55
Speaker 7: we weren't getting sort of the looks that we wanted.
4:58
Speaker 7: We weren't getting the opportunities to make the show that
5:00
Speaker 7: we wanted to make the entire season. So we decided
5:05
Speaker 7: that we were going to crowdfund, and so we spent
5:07
Speaker 7: a few months crowdfunding the thing, which was a whole
5:11
Speaker 7: journey in its I mean, that was a whole production
5:13
Speaker 7: in itself. And then it's thankfully, like the fans of
5:17
Speaker 7: One Tree Hill, fans of Luna Beach, fans of like
5:19
Speaker 7: Alex's show, the Royals and Caribas show H two O like,
5:23
Speaker 7: they really showed up for us in a huge way
5:25
Speaker 7: and got us that budget and we went straight into
5:28
Speaker 7: shooting season one from there and from there it was,
5:33
Speaker 7: you know, another year until we had i think licensed
5:37
Speaker 7: the first season to Hulu. After that, it took us
5:40
Speaker 7: about a year just to grow our souls and our
5:42
Speaker 7: brain cells back. After that whole world journey we went on,
5:46
Speaker 7: and then it was like, all right, let's do season two.
5:48
Speaker 7: So we took it upon ourselves to make season two
5:51
Speaker 7: because again, we wanted to make it how we wanted
5:54
Speaker 7: to make it. We had a very specific vision for it,
5:56
Speaker 7: and we felt like we had pulled that vision off
5:58
Speaker 7: with season one. So we just didn't want any more
6:01
Speaker 7: intervention from anyone, or any intervention from anyone. Yeah, so
6:05
Speaker 7: we went ahead with season two, and then there was
6:10
Speaker 7: this was like the whole the whole journey was like
6:13
Speaker 7: sort of difficult, and there was hitches and bumps in
6:15
Speaker 7: the road along the way. But I think the from
6:19
Speaker 7: the from the time we finished season two editing it
6:22
Speaker 7: and everything and locking the episodes to when we actually
6:26
Speaker 7: we are now able to announce that it's coming out
6:28
Speaker 7: on Netflix May eleventh, has been probably the most taxing
6:33
Speaker 7: of it all, just because of the amount of time
6:35
Speaker 7: it took and the industry contraction that was going on
6:37
Speaker 7: right when we were going to market and all kinds
6:40
Speaker 7: of stuff. But yeah, I mean this everything that I
6:43
Speaker 7: just described to you, there has been seven year odyssey.
6:47
Speaker 5: Yeah. The first one came out in twenty twenty one, yeah,
6:49
Speaker 5: now twenty six.
6:50
Speaker 7: Yeah, so well, basically basically pacing with euphoria.
6:54
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, that's.
6:59
Speaker 4: Time, you know.
7:00
Speaker 7: Yeah, So so that's the journey. I mean, where was
7:05
Speaker 7: that taking me, Sar, I got lost myself.
7:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's there's a lot we go over here. It's
7:09
Speaker 3: it's as you were saying earlier, like the chance of
7:11
Speaker 3: anything getting made in this industry doesn't matter who you are.
7:14
Speaker 3: I mean, you could be Brad Pitt, or you can
7:16
Speaker 3: be somebody just starting out. Like anything getting made is
7:19
Speaker 3: its own little miracle. And James like to say sometimes
7:21
Speaker 3: it's almost like if you stare at the mountain, say
7:23
Speaker 3: all right, this is what you need to do to
7:25
Speaker 3: actually get your show on air. A lot of folks
7:27
Speaker 3: might not do it because it can't there's just a
7:30
Speaker 3: lot of unknowns and it's a long long time. But
7:33
Speaker 3: when you've got a community of folks and good friends
7:35
Speaker 3: to work with, like thankfully we all kind of push
7:37
Speaker 3: each other through it so you get.
7:39
Speaker 1: It's very beautifully shot. Like it looks expensive if we well, I.
7:45
Speaker 6: Mean, premium content is what we're trying to create.
7:48
Speaker 7: And I think that was like what we set out
7:50
Speaker 7: to do. We realized that, like you can do this
7:52
Speaker 7: now and in the same way that I think probably
7:54
Speaker 7: in like the seventies and the eighties, people realized, hey,
7:56
Speaker 7: you can make like a feature film without a studio
7:58
Speaker 7: and it can still go to theaters. People will go
8:01
Speaker 7: watch it like it's a feature film that you know,
8:03
Speaker 7: MGM made or something I've Back in twenty seventeen, we
8:06
Speaker 7: felt like TV was like the technology and the access
8:11
Speaker 7: to resources had reached the point to where you could
8:13
Speaker 7: do that with television, right, you could do that with
8:16
Speaker 7: a long season, and you know, we thought that's what
8:20
Speaker 7: we pulled off with with season one. It just turns
8:23
Speaker 7: out that like the model of independent television is so
8:27
Speaker 7: new that it doesn't really it's it's had a difficult
8:31
Speaker 7: time finding its place, like in the marketplace of TV
8:35
Speaker 7: shows that are produced for studios by studios. But I
8:39
Speaker 7: think now it's sort of the concept of sort of
8:41
Speaker 7: catching up to the times a little bit, and we
8:45
Speaker 7: might see it happening more like you might see more
8:48
Speaker 7: people coming together to create a TV show that way
8:51
Speaker 7: that they would have an indie movie.
8:53
Speaker 4: Yeah.
8:53
Speaker 2: Well, I also feel like there's this, I mean, especially
8:57
Speaker 2: with AI and stuff, there's this thing where everything kind
8:59
Speaker 2: of feel like you've lost the creativity. So I feel
9:02
Speaker 2: like y'all even though it's probably just a nightmare trying
9:06
Speaker 2: to get it done and like having to figure out
9:09
Speaker 2: how are we going to get the funds, how are
9:10
Speaker 2: we gonna distribute it? It essentially was your idea and
9:15
Speaker 2: your vision, right that came to life because y'all were
9:18
Speaker 2: in control of it.
9:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, at the end of the day, I mean, yeah, how.
9:22
Speaker 1: How I know it's loose it's loosely based on your lives,
9:25
Speaker 1: which I understand now having seen it.
9:28
Speaker 5: How like, how much of it is based on your lives?
9:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's we obviously are are in a
9:35
Speaker 3: world where we know very well, and we wanted to
9:37
Speaker 3: on purpose. It's it's you know, talk about being on
9:40
Speaker 3: a teen drama or having a lot of success when
9:42
Speaker 3: you're younger and finding these guys years later and see
9:45
Speaker 3: what they're going through. You know, we really wanted to
9:49
Speaker 3: be able to, you know, come from a place of all, right,
9:50
Speaker 3: we know this world well, and we've had a unique perspective.
9:54
Speaker 3: We have a lot of stories that we've shared with
9:56
Speaker 3: each other and had laughs up. You know, horror stories
9:58
Speaker 3: of auditioning or being on set and just whatever. Being
10:00
Speaker 3: in this crazy business, so we knew we wanted to
10:03
Speaker 3: set there, but as far as like where our place
10:05
Speaker 3: is in it, we like to say, if there was
10:09
Speaker 3: a point where we just stopped maturing, you know, the
10:11
Speaker 3: version of ourselves being being very young and they say,
10:14
Speaker 3: you know, for folks that are very famous young, they
10:16
Speaker 3: sometimes they stop maturing and you know they can struggle
10:20
Speaker 3: a little bit as they get into their midlife. So
10:22
Speaker 3: we were kind of playing with that a little bit. Thankfully,
10:25
Speaker 3: you know, we're not these guys. You know, we would
10:27
Speaker 3: they would not be able to make a TV show
10:29
Speaker 3: and they have a lot that they need to figure
10:31
Speaker 3: out and making a lot of poor decisions, and that's
10:33
Speaker 3: what we wanted to do to it. I think Koree Behind,
10:36
Speaker 3: one of our actresses, she put it best. She said,
10:38
Speaker 3: it's almost like if you listen to the little devil
10:40
Speaker 3: on your shoulder at all times, you know, and just
10:43
Speaker 3: said yes to him, this is the result of your
10:46
Speaker 3: life would be life.
10:48
Speaker 6: Because this is the show.
10:49
Speaker 3: It's got a lot of absurd comedy, but it's still
10:51
Speaker 3: there's some heart in there. You know, Like these guys,
10:53
Speaker 3: it goes they're trying to you know, do their best
10:56
Speaker 3: and trying to make their way, but they're really struggling
10:58
Speaker 3: along the way, and it's because they've just having a
11:00
Speaker 3: very late coming of age.
11:01
Speaker 7: So yeah, yeah, one hundred percent. I feel like, to
11:04
Speaker 7: what Kariba was saying, it's that's how I've always thought
11:07
Speaker 7: about these characters. They're like the versions of ourselves that
11:10
Speaker 7: we are the most terrified of, that we might have
11:13
Speaker 7: seen like glimpses of in the past. And uh and
11:16
Speaker 7: had to take a moment and look in the mirror
11:18
Speaker 7: and be like, you know, okay, it's time to put
11:21
Speaker 7: some pants on and put Red Dead Redemption on pause
11:26
Speaker 7: and go outside.
11:27
Speaker 5: Yeah, and actually I can't even imagine.
11:30
Speaker 1: Well, we can get into that later, but I feel
11:31
Speaker 1: like coming off of what you you guys came off
11:34
Speaker 1: of in your past is probably like I don't feel
11:37
Speaker 1: like anybody can really relate to that, Like that's just like,
11:40
Speaker 1: well so crazy.
11:42
Speaker 7: I think in a way, that's what like kind of
11:46
Speaker 7: drew us to the show was that we realized that.
11:49
Speaker 7: And I think a lot of people on you know,
11:53
Speaker 7: television shows that have been successful feel this way about
11:57
Speaker 7: their experience. It's like an experience that like only you had,
12:01
Speaker 7: And so even if you know you don't get along
12:05
Speaker 7: now or you didn't get along in the past, there's
12:07
Speaker 7: always like a familiarity there. You know each other on
12:11
Speaker 7: a level that no one else will be able to understand.
12:14
Speaker 7: So there is like this natural camaraderie that comes out
12:18
Speaker 7: of that, and I feel like people recognize that, and
12:23
Speaker 7: I feel like that's why the first question that people
12:27
Speaker 7: ask us a lot of the times about our respective
12:30
Speaker 7: shows or you know, One Tree Hill is is everybody
12:33
Speaker 7: friends in real life? That's what everybody wants to know.
12:36
Speaker 7: The first thing they want to know as everyone friends
12:38
Speaker 7: in real life. And I think that's because they want
12:41
Speaker 7: us to be friends in real life because the characters
12:44
Speaker 7: were friends and they feel like, you know, they feel
12:48
Speaker 7: like our friends as well, So it's like, you know,
12:51
Speaker 7: I mean, that's That's one of the things that drew
12:53
Speaker 7: us to this concept was was exploring that, Okay, what's
12:56
Speaker 7: the actual answer to that question? Right? And for this
12:59
Speaker 7: particular world, they absolutely are still friends, but they probably
13:06
Speaker 7: have no business being friends, right, Like they probably shouldn't
13:08
Speaker 7: be friends, they probably shouldn't be married to each other,
13:10
Speaker 7: they probably shouldn't have relationships, but they are the only
13:14
Speaker 7: ones that understand like where they're coming from, and how
13:18
Speaker 7: confused they are about where they're going, and so they
13:21
Speaker 7: lean on each other, you know, and it just creates
13:24
Speaker 7: conflict and chaos, and that's where the humor comes from.
13:27
Speaker 7: But I mean what you just said right there, really,
13:28
Speaker 7: I think like speaks to the heart of the show,
13:30
Speaker 7: and I think people can sort of they're interested in it,
13:32
Speaker 7: but can also relate to it with other things they've
13:34
Speaker 7: been through in their lives.
13:36
Speaker 1: I was watching it with my husband and I've never
13:38
Speaker 1: seen Entourage, so I couldn't I can't speak to this,
13:40
Speaker 1: but he was like, the show gives me Entourage vibes,
13:43
Speaker 1: and I was like, Oh, that's I'm gonna tell them that.
13:45
Speaker 5: That's a really good compliment.
13:46
Speaker 7: That's awesome. Yeah, that's perfect. I mean, yeah, we feel
13:48
Speaker 7: like we feel like we kind of set out to
13:51
Speaker 7: be like the anti Entourage and that we're Entourage is
13:54
Speaker 7: like aspirational, you know, like it's about like them succeeding
13:57
Speaker 7: ours is about like how many times can you up
14:00
Speaker 7: and fall before you like don't get up again, or
14:03
Speaker 7: thinking about not getting up, or for a friend has
14:05
Speaker 7: to help you out, you know. But you know, the
14:08
Speaker 7: the yeah, I mean, like the camaraderie aspect of that show.
14:11
Speaker 7: We can all agree it was like what it's so
14:14
Speaker 7: famous for, Like it just captured friendship, and so that's
14:17
Speaker 7: a huge compliment.
14:34
Speaker 2: I want to throw it back to how both of
14:38
Speaker 2: your lives in this world got started, because we know
14:43
Speaker 2: y'all from a very a similar era and obviously y'all
14:46
Speaker 2: were on the show together. But Steven, I want to
14:48
Speaker 2: go back to Laguna Beach for you because I was
14:51
Speaker 2: listening to your podcast with Tish Cyrus and I was
14:54
Speaker 2: always wondering this reality. It was kind of in its
14:58
Speaker 2: own world of reality TV. There wasn't the the casting
15:06
Speaker 2: I guess, like you didn't go to a casting call,
15:07
Speaker 2: is that right?
15:08
Speaker 4: Like they just kind of just showed.
15:09
Speaker 3: Up at our high school for breaking lunch with a
15:11
Speaker 3: table and some packets to fill out. It was purely random.
15:14
Speaker 3: We are victims of circumstances, like yeah.
15:18
Speaker 4: So how how many people signed up?
15:21
Speaker 3: There are a lot of people, and it was mostly
15:24
Speaker 3: a lot of the girls did and a lot of
15:25
Speaker 3: guys were like playing it cool and doing the whole like,
15:28
Speaker 3: you know, screw MTV.
15:29
Speaker 6: Whatever happened music television? That's so lame. And I was like, yeah,
15:32
Speaker 6: that's so late.
15:32
Speaker 3: When never and then sneaking in like I'm totally gonna
15:36
Speaker 3: do this because I wanted to work in entertainment and
15:38
Speaker 3: I wanted to host.
15:39
Speaker 6: I had you know, that was middle school.
15:42
Speaker 3: They had those superlatives where it's like most likely, and
15:44
Speaker 3: one of them was most likely to be a VJ.
15:46
Speaker 3: And I was like, even though there's no one was
15:48
Speaker 3: going to vote for me, I just thought I was
15:49
Speaker 3: sitting at home like that would be so cool if
15:51
Speaker 3: they voted for me. And of course they did not,
15:53
Speaker 3: but it's just where my mind was at. And so yeah,
15:56
Speaker 3: that's why. And your senior year, so I happened to
15:58
Speaker 3: And that's the other thing. If it was sophomore junior year,
16:01
Speaker 3: I probably wouldn't have done it. I wouldn't have had
16:02
Speaker 3: the balls to do it. But uh, second semester senior year,
16:05
Speaker 3: you're you're ready to get out of there. Yeah, so
16:07
Speaker 3: I was like, let's let's go for it, let's do it.
16:09
Speaker 1: But nobody knew that it was going to be like
16:11
Speaker 1: it was. It was like a phenomenon.
16:14
Speaker 3: It was honestly, we just expected to be like a
16:16
Speaker 3: little documentary one hour, you know. It was to me,
16:20
Speaker 3: it was all about just you know, meeting it was
16:21
Speaker 3: connecting and networking and and maybe MTV was going to
16:25
Speaker 3: pay for a couple of events like a dinner or a.
16:27
Speaker 6: Trip, and that was going to be it, you know.
16:30
Speaker 6: So yeah, we really.
16:31
Speaker 3: Had no idea about how far it was going to
16:33
Speaker 3: actually go. And they do multiple seasons.
16:34
Speaker 2: So you knew you wanted to be in the industry
16:36
Speaker 2: in some capacity, and you were like, this could be
16:40
Speaker 2: my way in at a dinner.
16:43
Speaker 4: Yeah.
16:44
Speaker 3: I remember when I was walking up to pick up
16:45
Speaker 3: a packet from the producer. You know, I was like,
16:48
Speaker 3: all right, let's find out if this guy works for
16:49
Speaker 3: an MTV or if he just somebody's hired for the day.
16:52
Speaker 3: You know, It's like do I need to know this
16:53
Speaker 3: person or not. I was just kind of thinking that
16:55
Speaker 3: way from the jump.
16:56
Speaker 2: So when when it blew up, how did your friends
16:59
Speaker 2: that thought it was the lame from the get go?
17:01
Speaker 4: How did everyone respond?
17:02
Speaker 2: Oh?
17:03
Speaker 3: I mean I got a lot of grief because they
17:05
Speaker 3: focused a lot which we also didn't necessarily know on.
17:09
Speaker 3: You know, Yeah, this these like love traying love was
17:13
Speaker 3: very much you know, played up for the show, and
17:15
Speaker 3: so it was you know, it was a shock and
17:17
Speaker 3: and yeah, it was definitely a lot of ribbing from
17:20
Speaker 3: my friends, like rightfully, so I deserved it, but yeah,
17:24
Speaker 3: I just took it all and stride and just was
17:26
Speaker 3: in denial for a while.
17:27
Speaker 7: I think was was anybody? Yeah?
17:29
Speaker 6: I was like, no one's really watched this is James's chance?
17:33
Speaker 7: Did anyone that was giving it grief to begin with
17:36
Speaker 7: end up coming around and being like, hey, get me
17:38
Speaker 7: on the show.
17:39
Speaker 6: The amount of dudes who were like it's so lame.
17:41
Speaker 3: And then we were shooting season two and it was like, hey,
17:43
Speaker 3: the cameras are going to be there, and they're like,
17:45
Speaker 3: I don't care, Yeah, I'll be The amount of people
17:48
Speaker 3: we went back after that my first semester of college
17:51
Speaker 3: and we were starting to shoot season two and there
17:53
Speaker 3: was a little like coming home parties, and suddenly a
17:56
Speaker 3: lot of friends were down yeah there, like I want
17:59
Speaker 3: to go show up on camera and they're doing little
18:01
Speaker 3: stunts trying to like get a moment.
18:03
Speaker 6: It was funny to see that.
18:04
Speaker 1: How much time between Laguna Beach and then when you
18:07
Speaker 1: came on a one tree hill.
18:10
Speaker 6: So let's see here.
18:11
Speaker 3: I stopped shooting my part in Lagoon and probably the
18:15
Speaker 3: end of two thousand and four.
18:17
Speaker 5: Oh wow, I love I love timestamps like this.
18:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, actually sorry ended two thousand and five because it
18:21
Speaker 3: was after my first year of college.
18:23
Speaker 6: I finished in the spring.
18:24
Speaker 3: I was done shooting lagun and by the end of
18:26
Speaker 3: two thousand and five, and then yeah, I just I
18:30
Speaker 3: was hosting, of course for MTV, doing TRL, and I
18:34
Speaker 3: kind of noticed then I was like, look, I've been
18:36
Speaker 3: taking some acting classes. That was more interesting to me
18:39
Speaker 3: and I wanted to pursue that. It was about a
18:42
Speaker 3: year and a half later that about two thousand and
18:45
Speaker 3: seven is when I got on one trail. Yeah, it took.
18:49
Speaker 6: It took a little while there.
18:50
Speaker 3: There was an audition and went well, but then like
18:53
Speaker 3: this isn't the role for you, but maybe maybe we'll
18:55
Speaker 3: have you back. And I remember, you know, seeing James
18:57
Speaker 3: and everyone else on the show and going like it's
18:59
Speaker 3: actually somebody came on to TRL when I was hosting,
19:01
Speaker 3: and I was like.
19:02
Speaker 6: That would be a really cool show to work on.
19:04
Speaker 6: I'd love to work on that show.
19:05
Speaker 3: Actually, I did a movie with Hillary Burton too, and
19:08
Speaker 3: she was talking about being in Wilmington where they shot
19:11
Speaker 3: the show.
19:11
Speaker 6: I was like, man, they got a good life down there.
19:13
Speaker 6: That'd be cool.
19:14
Speaker 7: Do you remember what the first role you auditioned for
19:17
Speaker 7: was I don't think.
19:18
Speaker 3: I don't and I don't know if it was dummy
19:20
Speaker 3: sides like it was just something that they had, yeah,
19:23
Speaker 3: just to see if I can actually act.
19:24
Speaker 7: Or what that would be interesting to find that out on.
19:27
Speaker 1: I feel like TV then is so different than TV
19:32
Speaker 1: is now. Like I guess there are still some of
19:35
Speaker 1: those shows and movies that have that like cult like following,
19:38
Speaker 1: but I feel like not like they did back then.
19:41
Speaker 2: Well, also without social media, Like I think that's the
19:44
Speaker 2: testament of that time, was that it was just successful
19:48
Speaker 2: because it was successful and people loved it. It didn't
19:50
Speaker 2: really have the push of TikTok and Instagram. It was
19:53
Speaker 2: just because people were fans of the show and they
19:56
Speaker 2: got their weekly episode and went crazy trying to get more,
20:01
Speaker 2: and so everything I'm sure felt even bigger for y'all
20:04
Speaker 2: because I watched you know, you watch social media now
20:06
Speaker 2: and there's not really that element of mystery around it
20:11
Speaker 2: because we know everything. And then there's spoilers everywhere whereas
20:14
Speaker 2: you used to go. I remember hunting for spoilers for
20:17
Speaker 2: One Tree Hill, like what's gonna happen next?
20:19
Speaker 6: Like the scenes from the net for the next episode that.
20:22
Speaker 5: Was such all those you can't miss those.
20:25
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, that's true, that's wild. I mean I feel
20:29
Speaker 7: like that's one thing that we were talking about when
20:32
Speaker 7: we were formulating the idea for everyone who's doing great,
20:35
Speaker 7: it was like what show were they going to be on?
20:37
Speaker 7: Because when in twenty seventeen, when we first were thinking
20:42
Speaker 7: this up, we were like, we need a show that's
20:44
Speaker 7: like really big, like like we know, One Tree Hill
20:47
Speaker 7: was like kind of you know, it is what it is,
20:49
Speaker 7: but like it's got to be like Vampire Diaries or something.
20:51
Speaker 7: It's got to be like huge.
20:53
Speaker 5: I was getting like Twilight vibes, Yeah.
20:54
Speaker 7: Something like that. There was also like the physical comedy
20:57
Speaker 7: of like being able to do flashbacks of the I'm
21:00
Speaker 7: like in their vampire makeup, like talking about what their
21:02
Speaker 7: launch order is, you know. But also it was just like,
21:05
Speaker 7: you know, it's got to be something that was like
21:06
Speaker 7: this cultural sort of sensation that they really can't get
21:10
Speaker 7: away from.
21:10
Speaker 4: Right.
21:12
Speaker 7: But something's happened in the last like between twenty seventeen
21:15
Speaker 7: and even now where like the popularity of One Tree
21:18
Speaker 7: Hill has I think grown probably exponentially, and it's been
21:23
Speaker 7: doing this since we finished shooting the show. Like around
21:27
Speaker 7: the time we finished shooting the show, I think Netflix
21:29
Speaker 7: was just starting as like a streamer and One Tree
21:33
Speaker 7: Hill was on it, and so we filmed One Tree
21:37
Speaker 7: Hill and it was always like okay, yeah, it was
21:39
Speaker 7: obviously enough people like it to keep us coming back, right,
21:43
Speaker 7: But then we finished shooting, the show comes out on Netflix,
21:47
Speaker 7: and we see each other again like a year later,
21:50
Speaker 7: and it's like, are you getting recognized all the time everywhere?
21:54
Speaker 7: It's like, yeah, what's going on? We just had no idea,
21:57
Speaker 7: you know. Obviously it comes into focus over then few
22:00
Speaker 7: years that it's because of streaming, and it's just I mean,
22:03
Speaker 7: it is far more popular now than it was back then.
22:06
Speaker 7: I mean, like I'm telling you, I mean I don't
22:09
Speaker 7: know if you disagree, but like I there was not
22:13
Speaker 7: any sort of i think broad recognition of it. I
22:16
Speaker 7: think for like every one of our fans, there was
22:19
Speaker 7: probably like five or six fans of you know, any
22:23
Speaker 7: other show, any other team drama you can name that
22:26
Speaker 7: was that was out there, that went for multiple seasons.
22:28
Speaker 7: It was just a very very like passionate crowd. It
22:31
Speaker 7: was a very passionate audience and and they like they
22:35
Speaker 7: really showed up for us, So I think they had
22:37
Speaker 7: like an outsized like impact in terms of like voice
22:40
Speaker 7: on forums and things like that, and they showed up
22:43
Speaker 7: to events that we went to. But in terms of
22:46
Speaker 7: like its broad appeal, yeah, one hundred percent is IS
22:50
Speaker 7: is far more successful than it was when we were
22:52
Speaker 7: actually shooting the show.
22:53
Speaker 4: That's amazing. Do y'all get residuals from that?
22:57
Speaker 6: Uh supposed to? Well, we pay our sag dues for that.
23:02
Speaker 7: Yeah, the streaming residuals look different than oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
23:07
Speaker 7: but I mean the show. The show is definitely old
23:09
Speaker 7: enough to where we had like a traditional syndication deal
23:12
Speaker 7: on soap network after like we were in our fourth season,
23:16
Speaker 7: so you know that was cool. But yeah, that that's
23:19
Speaker 7: that doesn't happen really anymore.
23:20
Speaker 2: So, Yeah, did you ever have moments because you your
23:24
Speaker 2: Nathan and Haley had such a have such an extreme
23:27
Speaker 2: fan base of people who shipped them, did you ever
23:32
Speaker 2: have as an actor, did you ever wish there was
23:35
Speaker 2: more conflict there and that you got to explore other
23:38
Speaker 2: things or did you like the consistency of them always
23:41
Speaker 2: being an ending up together?
23:43
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, no, that's actually a really good question and
23:46
Speaker 7: I don't think anybody's ever asked me that question, but
23:49
Speaker 7: one hundred percent I would read the scripts, and I'm
23:51
Speaker 7: sure Joy feels the same way we probably talked about it.
23:54
Speaker 7: Like I remember reading the scripts and being like, oh, man,
23:58
Speaker 7: really like disagree about anything anymore? You know, like after
24:02
Speaker 7: a while it really became and look, it's great, Like
24:06
Speaker 7: I love that they were like rock solid.
24:08
Speaker 5: Yeah, you were steady Eddie for all of us watching.
24:11
Speaker 7: I think that's really really cool. I but yeah, I
24:15
Speaker 7: think that there was a bit of like fatigue in
24:18
Speaker 7: terms of like seeing sort of the same scene play
24:20
Speaker 7: out over and over again, because there's only so many
24:23
Speaker 7: different versions of like that I think you can do.
24:26
Speaker 7: But obviously, storytelling television it's all about conflict, right, It's
24:30
Speaker 7: like the most interesting when there's some friction y and uh.
24:33
Speaker 7: And it just felt extremely like friction lists for a
24:38
Speaker 7: while towards the end. But you know, obviously that was
24:43
Speaker 7: not like a huge issue or anything like that. I
24:45
Speaker 7: just I remember the feeling of reading the script and
24:47
Speaker 7: being like.
24:48
Speaker 4: Oh, here we go again.
24:49
Speaker 7: We could have disagreed.
24:50
Speaker 1: That's so funny that it's so funny that you say that, though,
24:52
Speaker 1: because so I like you when I was watching, like
24:55
Speaker 1: you were like my boyfriend.
24:57
Speaker 5: Like I was, like, I always thought it was controversial.
24:59
Speaker 4: But it is a big deal for her, a big deal.
25:01
Speaker 5: I got ready. My husband's like, are you ready for
25:03
Speaker 5: your boyfriend?
25:06
Speaker 1: But but because I think, like maybe subconsciously, I didn't
25:09
Speaker 1: like Lucas. I was like a Nathan Scott person. And
25:12
Speaker 1: I feel like I married a steady Eddie. I feel
25:15
Speaker 1: like you subconsciously, like I wanted that from like seeing that,
25:20
Speaker 1: I mean you shap.
25:25
Speaker 4: No, yeah, shifting in his seat.
25:30
Speaker 7: I'm wearing so much makeup. No, you can't see. No,
25:34
Speaker 7: I get it though, you know, like I watched The Office,
25:37
Speaker 7: like I love the Office, and and you know, Jim
25:40
Speaker 7: and Pam. You know, I think it's it's it's it's
25:43
Speaker 7: an amazing I know that feeling and and and I
25:47
Speaker 7: know that that's why we love TV and we love
25:49
Speaker 7: these characters. And so yeah, I mean, obviously I'm I
25:54
Speaker 7: wasn't the writer on the show. I had no say
25:56
Speaker 7: in any of that, and I didn't want any say
25:58
Speaker 7: in any of that. They obviously knew what they were
26:00
Speaker 7: doing because look what it did, you know. So it's
26:04
Speaker 7: like my preference there as like an actor. There's a
26:08
Speaker 7: reason they don't let actors write scripts most of the time.
26:10
Speaker 5: I think, now you're doing both.
26:14
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, honestly, you know, that's like a line
26:17
Speaker 7: that we have to walk, you know, and we want
26:20
Speaker 7: to go for multiple seasons. We want to be doing
26:22
Speaker 7: this for a while. Like we want the show to
26:23
Speaker 7: evolve with like life and the things that we learn
26:27
Speaker 7: personally in life, and it's designed to do that. And
26:31
Speaker 7: so I think that like a question like that is
26:33
Speaker 7: something that we are going to have to and we are,
26:36
Speaker 7: we are already facing. It's like, all right, how much
26:39
Speaker 7: getting along is too much getting along? Right? And like
26:41
Speaker 7: and also how much disagreeting is too much disagreeing?
26:44
Speaker 5: So yeah, how much chaos is too much chaos?
26:46
Speaker 7: Yeah?
26:46
Speaker 1: I can ask you a silly like in the Weeds
26:49
Speaker 1: thing about so you guys, you direct, you act, you're
26:53
Speaker 1: like kind of everything for this show. Since you're not
26:56
Speaker 1: on Netflix, does that change anything? Do they have a
26:59
Speaker 1: say or is it still you guys?
27:01
Speaker 6: It's still it's still us.
27:02
Speaker 3: So we're still an independent show because we licensed the
27:04
Speaker 3: show to them, so they are not taking ownership. We're
27:06
Speaker 3: not like a Netflix original.
27:08
Speaker 5: Got It? Got It? So you still get to have
27:11
Speaker 5: your voice, your vision.
27:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we'd love to partner with Netflix and
27:14
Speaker 3: Sony who actually is the one that got us into
27:17
Speaker 3: Netflix there, they've been a great partner for us. We
27:21
Speaker 3: want to have a partner where we can get a
27:22
Speaker 3: little bit of a stronger budget so we could have
27:25
Speaker 3: a little less stress and and and take off some
27:28
Speaker 3: of the hats and spread the love around. But that's why,
27:31
Speaker 3: and we're happy to do it, like we we enjoy
27:33
Speaker 3: doing this because we get to make the show we want.
27:34
Speaker 3: But a part of doing a lot of these roles
27:38
Speaker 3: is so that we can keep our budget down and
27:41
Speaker 3: spend more money on what's going on screen. So yeah,
27:45
Speaker 3: but we're hoping, you know, season two goes well and
27:48
Speaker 3: and and more people can talk about the show and
27:51
Speaker 3: say that they enjoy it and tag those those big
27:53
Speaker 3: partners like Netflix gives us a good chance to do that.
27:56
Speaker 5: I could do that, appreciate it.
28:00
Speaker 2: When you started Wontree Hill, were you one of the
28:03
Speaker 2: I don't have memories of people someone going from reality
28:06
Speaker 2: TV to a networks like one of the first.
28:10
Speaker 6: I think there's there's been some folks that have done it.
28:13
Speaker 3: I think maybe because Laguna was kind of a first
28:16
Speaker 3: of its kind type reality show, the fact that we
28:19
Speaker 3: were complete randoms and and.
28:22
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's and so we kind of got to start there.
28:24
Speaker 3: But there are people that have you know, the lines
28:26
Speaker 3: have been blurred from from hosting into acting of course,
28:29
Speaker 3: and that's similar.
28:31
Speaker 6: So yeah, I don't think I was the first.
28:34
Speaker 1: Can we shift a gear really fast? Just because I'm
28:37
Speaker 1: also a huge Traders fan? Yeah, and you were on
28:40
Speaker 1: this last season. I need to know how did you
28:45
Speaker 1: not know Rob was a trader? Like I need to
28:49
Speaker 1: know from somebody on the inside, how did you not
28:52
Speaker 1: see it?
28:53
Speaker 7: You know?
28:53
Speaker 3: Well, I didn't know Rob going into it, so I
28:55
Speaker 3: knew nothing about him. And from the jump he played
28:58
Speaker 3: very quiet, and it was almost like he was like
29:01
Speaker 3: somebody signed this, signed me up to be here, and
29:03
Speaker 3: I was just like, I'm down.
29:04
Speaker 6: I just didn't know anything.
29:05
Speaker 3: So we kind of all came to our own conclusions
29:07
Speaker 3: about you know, Rob was He's like, I'm a little
29:10
Speaker 3: socially awkward to get, yeah, you know, quiet in groups,
29:13
Speaker 3: and so from there it was like, all right, it
29:17
Speaker 3: would be tough to see this guy wanting to be
29:18
Speaker 3: a trader if he was already stepping outside of his
29:21
Speaker 3: comfort zone to be on the show, because I could
29:22
Speaker 3: relate to that coming into the show, I was stepping
29:24
Speaker 3: outside my comfort zone. I wanted to play it safe
29:27
Speaker 3: and be a faithful I pushed, I put that forward
29:29
Speaker 3: from the jump.
29:30
Speaker 6: So yeah, and he was.
29:32
Speaker 5: We're an excellent faithful.
29:33
Speaker 3: I feel Rob was also a really good faith He
29:37
Speaker 3: was Yeah, and he had a lot of folks wrapped
29:40
Speaker 3: around his finger and no one was looking. And it
29:42
Speaker 3: wasn't until tera Actually Lipinski was telling me that. She
29:45
Speaker 3: was like, it wasn't until we got you out and
29:47
Speaker 3: we messed that up that Johnny and I really put
29:49
Speaker 3: our heads together and said, oh wait a minute, it's
29:52
Speaker 3: been right under our.
29:52
Speaker 6: Nose this whole time.
29:53
Speaker 3: Because also the way that Candice sold her throwaway vote
29:57
Speaker 3: to Rob, it was she really It just looked like
30:01
Speaker 3: she was trying to save Lisa and protect her traders,
30:03
Speaker 3: so it's not like she was deflecting to another trader.
30:06
Speaker 5: That that was when I lost it. I was like,
30:08
Speaker 5: how is no?
30:09
Speaker 3: We didn't know the behind the scenes fighting that was
30:11
Speaker 3: going on there, and so it's it was, Yeah, nobody
30:14
Speaker 3: was was onto him at at all. And you know
30:17
Speaker 3: what I will say, because he put forth, it's like
30:20
Speaker 3: very you know, socially awkward, kind of casual front. When
30:24
Speaker 3: he was getting on the show and I got off it,
30:26
Speaker 3: and I took like one look at his Instagram and
30:28
Speaker 3: there's a lot of like the snakes, there's a lot
30:30
Speaker 3: more personality. He's shirtless, he's very comfortable, and I'm like,
30:33
Speaker 3: wait a minute, that's a different dude. Yeah, So give
30:37
Speaker 3: him a lot of credit. He played that character very
30:39
Speaker 3: well and he absolutely crushed it. So and as a viewer,
30:44
Speaker 3: I mean the end, the ending moment between him and
30:47
Speaker 3: Maura is devastating. That is, and that's the thing where
30:50
Speaker 3: you know everyone has feelings for that very specific moment,
30:53
Speaker 3: and and you know what you feel for Maura and
30:56
Speaker 3: you feel for Rob. It's yeah, they do an incredible
30:58
Speaker 3: job on that show and those two killed it. So
31:00
Speaker 3: credit to them.
31:01
Speaker 2: Yeah.
31:01
Speaker 6: One, she got a burken back. I know she.
31:06
Speaker 3: Was a victor and all of it. I told her
31:08
Speaker 3: right away. She was so embarrassed. After we were doing
31:09
Speaker 3: the reunion, we just watched the episode. She's like, oh
31:12
Speaker 3: my god, I'm an idiot. I was like, we are
31:14
Speaker 3: all idiots. Yeah, and you're not. You've You've come out
31:18
Speaker 3: just fine.
31:18
Speaker 1: That was a saving grace. Is I feel like everyone
31:21
Speaker 1: that this season like we're idiots. So like I'm like,
31:23
Speaker 1: I can't blame her.
31:25
Speaker 3: I mean, I think I said it was like we
31:27
Speaker 3: I said on the way out, as I said, you
31:29
Speaker 3: blew it, I should have said, I blew it, you're
31:31
Speaker 3: blowing it. But we deserved nothing as faithfuls.
31:35
Speaker 2: How long because obviously I'm so competitive, so I when
31:38
Speaker 2: you were like so upset and angry like you blew it.
31:42
Speaker 4: I've related so much that because even though I know
31:45
Speaker 4: it's a game and a.
31:46
Speaker 2: TV show, I feel so betrayed in that moment. It
31:50
Speaker 2: would take me a second to face those people again.
31:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, because you're so in the game when
31:55
Speaker 3: you're there and the phones are taken away from you,
31:57
Speaker 3: so that's your life while you're there, Right, You're really
31:59
Speaker 3: locked into this game, and even though it is a game,
32:01
Speaker 3: you know, you you don't have to take it too seriously.
32:03
Speaker 6: At the end of the day, we're all here just
32:04
Speaker 6: to have some fun.
32:05
Speaker 3: But I'm a competitive person, so you know, in that moment,
32:08
Speaker 3: you're you're you know, that competitive spirit's coming out, and
32:11
Speaker 3: I'm I'm taking the l on the forehead and I'm like,
32:14
Speaker 3: you know what, I can I honestly have myself to
32:16
Speaker 3: blame through it as well. I I made some decisions
32:19
Speaker 3: that ultimately cost me. So yeah, and I never knew
32:22
Speaker 3: it was Rob.
32:23
Speaker 4: Wow.
32:24
Speaker 1: I know, like you said, everybody asked if one tree,
32:26
Speaker 1: he'll people are friends, But I feel like you probably
32:28
Speaker 1: made some actual friends on Traders, right, because that's like
32:31
Speaker 1: you're you're like living life with them.
32:33
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean it's just this like very short
32:35
Speaker 3: amount of time. It's like three weeks.
32:37
Speaker 6: But yeah, I.
32:38
Speaker 1: Would you ever ask any of them to be on
32:39
Speaker 1: Everyone is doing great, like as like I do like
32:41
Speaker 1: a little cameo.
32:42
Speaker 3: Of course, I'd love to one hundred percent. You know,
32:46
Speaker 3: seeing Michael Rappaport, he's an actor. It's in in a
32:49
Speaker 3: couple of movies I've seen growing up that big fans
32:52
Speaker 3: of so him as an actor of Ron Functious. I
32:55
Speaker 3: think Ron is absolutely hilarious and he's done some great
32:58
Speaker 3: acting as well. But there's there's such good personalities and
33:01
Speaker 3: in that show that really you could pull a lot
33:03
Speaker 3: of folks I think, and play a part version of themselves.
33:06
Speaker 3: I mean, think about what you could do with Rob
33:08
Speaker 3: and with Maura. Yeah, I mean Eric, now he's great. Yeah,
33:12
Speaker 3: so uh, of course there'd be a lot of potential
33:15
Speaker 3: there with all the personalities.
33:17
Speaker 2: James, are you trying to dabble in reality?
33:24
Speaker 7: I honestly like, I will watch the show. Of course,
33:27
Speaker 7: I didn't watch. After you got voted off. I was like,
33:29
Speaker 7: I'm not watching.
33:31
Speaker 2: A loyal friend but not best friend.
33:33
Speaker 7: I was angry.
33:34
Speaker 6: A lot of people have told me that.
33:35
Speaker 3: I was like, thank you, you didn't have to do that.
33:37
Speaker 3: But it's funny that it shows the effect of the show.
33:40
Speaker 7: Just what happened. It was the way it happened.
33:42
Speaker 5: I understand go into.
33:44
Speaker 7: It, but but I found myself like, like, you know,
33:49
Speaker 7: walking around the house, like doing dishes or like in
33:51
Speaker 7: the shower, just like thinking about how I would play
33:53
Speaker 7: the game, you know, Like that's that's the effect that
33:56
Speaker 7: it has on you, like you know, and and every
33:59
Speaker 7: single time I caught myself doing it, I came to
34:01
Speaker 7: the conclusion that I would be terrible at that game
34:05
Speaker 7: and I should never go anywhere near it.
34:07
Speaker 2: I think you could be a good Actually you're unassuming,
34:10
Speaker 2: yeah you.
34:11
Speaker 3: Might, and you're super smart, so you'd be able to
34:14
Speaker 3: play a couple of steps.
34:15
Speaker 7: Ahead incredibly off putting group social situations like and no
34:20
Speaker 7: one would trust me from again?
34:21
Speaker 6: You got you got the playbook from Rob?
34:23
Speaker 3: You know, you're just like I'm sorry, guys, I'm just butting.
34:27
Speaker 7: Like I'm like southern good boy, you know, like kicking
34:30
Speaker 7: back like I don't. I don't have that charm.
34:32
Speaker 1: I do feel like you guys are like you said,
34:34
Speaker 1: good boy but like your men.
34:36
Speaker 5: But like I feel like I was gonna say, you
34:38
Speaker 5: guys are good boys.
34:40
Speaker 1: You guys are good boys, but I feel like you
34:42
Speaker 1: both are like really quality, solid men and like this
34:46
Speaker 1: is gonna sound so like bad to say, but I
34:49
Speaker 1: feel like coming from where you came from, and like
34:51
Speaker 1: I imagine just having being on shows like that, like
34:55
Speaker 1: your ego was probably like so big, but you don't,
34:59
Speaker 1: you don't. You guys are so not like that in
35:01
Speaker 1: real life. And I feel like you just seem like
35:04
Speaker 1: good men that are married, like family men like you
35:08
Speaker 1: No seriously and I saw.
35:11
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean yeah, look, I thank you, thank you
35:14
Speaker 7: for saying that. And I think, you know, we definitely
35:19
Speaker 7: like I had to learn a lot growing up, you know,
35:21
Speaker 7: and I think we definitely tested defenses in different ways
35:25
Speaker 7: as like as as like basically adolescents like growing up
35:31
Speaker 7: on TV shows. It's just a weird place to grow up.
35:35
Speaker 7: And like Steven said earlier, you know, there is this
35:37
Speaker 7: saying that it's like the moment that you become famous
35:39
Speaker 7: is the moment that you stop maturing. And so that's
35:42
Speaker 7: not a good situation for people that are sixteen eighteen, right,
35:48
Speaker 7: And so yeah, I think we had to learn some lessons,
35:51
Speaker 7: and we had to learn some hard lessons and and
35:54
Speaker 7: you know, ultimately like yeah, I mean we just we've
35:59
Speaker 7: we've I think we've really tried to tell that story
36:02
Speaker 7: as well through like everyone is doing greatness of like
36:04
Speaker 7: you know, how to how to sort of graduate, like
36:09
Speaker 7: how to graduate from a version of yourself that you're
36:11
Speaker 7: not that you you understand is not the version that
36:15
Speaker 7: you want to be.
36:15
Speaker 6: Boy or real life.
36:17
Speaker 3: I mean working on a show, having the privilege to
36:19
Speaker 3: work on Wantree Hill for years and be out there
36:21
Speaker 3: in Wilmington, great community took good care of us. It's
36:25
Speaker 3: not real life ultimately for us, where you know, we are.
36:29
Speaker 3: The way that things were on such a while taken
36:32
Speaker 3: care of and it was only show shooting out there
36:35
Speaker 3: at the time, so you know, folks around town really
36:38
Speaker 3: looked after us and and you felt like you, you know,
36:42
Speaker 3: had everything figured out at the day, like this could
36:44
Speaker 3: go on forever, right, Like we're good.
36:46
Speaker 6: This is a good life, but we got the job.
36:48
Speaker 3: We're in a beautiful community, we're outside of LA we're
36:50
Speaker 3: kind of living our own life. Then the show ends
36:52
Speaker 3: and you go back to LA and you're getting back
36:55
Speaker 3: into those auditions and your show up in rooms feeling
36:57
Speaker 3: a little bit of a pressure of the expectation, and yeah,
37:00
Speaker 3: those rooms can humble you pretty quickly. And that's that
37:03
Speaker 3: little moment. We talked about this early on we were writing
37:06
Speaker 3: the show, is some of those first auditions back when
37:08
Speaker 3: there's no more show to fall back on before you
37:11
Speaker 3: kind of you had a bad audition, whatever, We're going
37:13
Speaker 3: to go back and shoot another season of this show. Now,
37:15
Speaker 3: it's like, oh no, like that didn't go well today
37:18
Speaker 3: and I have nothing else.
37:20
Speaker 6: That's something we.
37:21
Speaker 1: Talked about, you know, the pilot of you having sex
37:23
Speaker 1: with a pillow while they're ordering Menosino farm salad.
37:28
Speaker 5: I was like, this is like this industry is so crazy.
37:31
Speaker 1: I could like see that happening in real life, you
37:34
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like you're like acting out your
37:36
Speaker 1: scene and these people are like, what do you want
37:37
Speaker 1: for lunch?
37:38
Speaker 5: And I'm like, it's just so ruthless and cutthroat.
37:42
Speaker 7: It's just like, truthfully, like that scene was the kernel
37:47
Speaker 7: of like the show you know of it was. I mean,
37:51
Speaker 7: it came from like a sort of amalgamation of or
37:55
Speaker 7: experiences that we had, but it was not something that
37:59
Speaker 7: was like out of like the realm of possibility. In fact,
38:02
Speaker 7: that has happened to people that we know, that exact thing.
38:05
Speaker 7: And there was, but there's also like an irreverence. It's
38:09
Speaker 7: like it's yeah, humiliating, but there's also an a reverence
38:12
Speaker 7: to it and the fact that you are willing to
38:14
Speaker 7: do that right right, and like where are you in
38:16
Speaker 7: your life that you're like I need this so and
38:21
Speaker 7: I am so committed that I'm going to do this
38:23
Speaker 7: right and and that's like just that push and pull
38:26
Speaker 7: right there. We were like, this is a comedy, Like
38:29
Speaker 7: this is this is not just a scene. This is
38:31
Speaker 7: a comedy, This is a this is a story.
38:32
Speaker 1: Season two Everyone is doing great premieres Monday, May eleventh
38:35
Speaker 1: on Netflix. Everybody can check it out. I do want
38:38
Speaker 1: to get to We have like so many fan questions

38:59
Speaker 4: Can I just ask about the reboot, the One Tree
39:01
Speaker 4: Hill reboot.
39:02
Speaker 6: Honestly, you probably know more than us.

39:10
Speaker 3: and Danil. I know they're leading the charge there. Yeah,
39:13
Speaker 3: And honestly, I haven't gotten an update. I don't know
39:16
Speaker 3: where it's at the in development development. As we talked
39:18
Speaker 3: about earlier, it takes time. I think they're a little
39:20
Speaker 3: disappointed that the news got out earlier than expected.
39:23
Speaker 6: So yeah, we'll see, Okay, we'll see.
39:27
Speaker 4: Kept that short and sweet.
39:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was I want to ask one quick one
39:30
Speaker 1: from one of our fans because she said, Marina for Steven,
39:34
Speaker 1: she wants to know what it was like Van Taylor's
39:36
Speaker 1: this music video for white Horse.
39:38
Speaker 3: All right, First of all, him, Marina, thank you for
39:39
Speaker 3: that question. I honestly loved being in that music video.
39:44
Speaker 3: It was such a flash in the pan moment. I
39:47
Speaker 3: was in Nashville for like seventy two hours. I remember
39:50
Speaker 3: it was raining, is very moody time, and we shot
39:53
Speaker 3: the video and that was that. And you could tell
39:56
Speaker 3: just the whole process of even getting involved with it.
40:00
Speaker 3: And after the fact that you know, Taylor was on
40:02
Speaker 3: a rocket ship, you know, to a different universe. You
40:04
Speaker 3: could just see. I really appreciated her story. I was
40:07
Speaker 3: learning that she was writing songs as like, you know,
40:09
Speaker 3: not only writing songs on her own, but like traveling
40:12
Speaker 3: into Nashville and being paid to be a writer. And
40:15
Speaker 3: I'm playing on all these shows around the country. It
40:17
Speaker 3: was really cool to see. And yeah, and you know,
40:20
Speaker 3: I'll tell you this story. I told her about my
40:22
Speaker 3: cousins that were big fans of hers, and when we
40:27
Speaker 3: were done with the music video, and and you know,
40:29
Speaker 3: time had gone on. It must have been like a
40:31
Speaker 3: year and a half later, and I got a call
40:33
Speaker 3: one day. I remember, I was I'll never forget. I
40:35
Speaker 3: was walking in New York City as a random number,
40:37
Speaker 3: and back then you didn't get quite as many robo calls.
40:39
Speaker 6: So I answered it. I was like, oh, who was
40:40
Speaker 6: this today?
40:41
Speaker 3: And it was Taylor and she's like, Hey, I'm playing
40:43
Speaker 3: a show in LA And I know, I remember you
40:45
Speaker 3: said your cousins would love to go to the show.
40:48
Speaker 3: Do you want to give me their names and see
40:49
Speaker 3: if they can make it? And I was like yes,
40:51
Speaker 3: Like that is incredibly sweet. And they did and they
40:54
Speaker 3: got backstage and everything, so that just speaks to the
40:56
Speaker 3: kind of person that show.
40:57
Speaker 4: Wow, that's amazing.
40:58
Speaker 5: I'd love to hear it.
40:59
Speaker 4: Wow. Well, I didn't know we were being.
41:04
Speaker 5: So much time.
41:05
Speaker 6: You got to get one for James question.
41:09
Speaker 4: I've never met Taylor, do you want to?
41:14
Speaker 2: Okay, if there was a plot on One Tree Hill
41:17
Speaker 2: that you could change in your storylines, what would it.
41:20
Speaker 7: Be a plot I could change? Oh, I mean would
41:24
Speaker 7: Chase for sure? I mean I mean, selfishly, I get
41:29
Speaker 7: why it was done. It went the other way because
41:32
Speaker 7: of the story and it makes sense, but like selfishly,
41:35
Speaker 7: I wanted Nathan to spend a little more time in
41:36
Speaker 7: the n b A. I thought that would have been
41:38
Speaker 7: really fun.
