2:00

2:02
Speaker 1: have dinner plans, we do two. And I really really
2:04
Speaker 1: appreciate this because you're giving us the time and we're
2:07
Speaker 1: not going to take up a lot of your time.
2:09
Speaker 1: I want to get into like thank you for saying that,
2:11
Speaker 1: and thank you. I really do appreciate it because I'm
2:13
Speaker 1: I'm dragging myself. I'm so tired. It's like, you know,
2:17
Speaker 1: the traveling and the whole thing, and it's just like
2:19
Speaker 1: but I want to dig in to who you are,
2:23
Speaker 1: why you're so good at what you do? Why do
2:26
Speaker 1: you think? Why do you think people respond to you
2:30
Speaker 1: the way that they do, Because it's very very very positive.
2:34
Speaker 1: You must know this at this point. You know they
2:36
Speaker 1: talk about you know, it's beyond looks and all that stuff.
2:40
Speaker 1: It's it's it's this depth of talent. So tell me
2:44
Speaker 1: how was this something you always had where you studied
2:49
Speaker 1: your love of the craft. Talk about that a little bit.
2:52
Speaker 1: But thank you for saying that, Um that that means
2:55
Speaker 1: a lot to me. You know, I whatever I do,
2:58
Speaker 1: I try to give every thing to it, and um,
3:02
Speaker 1: whether it be here today with the questions that everybody
3:05
Speaker 1: has had, or whether it be my work on any show.
3:08
Speaker 1: It it really is something where I'm trying to constantly learn,
3:12
Speaker 1: trying to constantly get better, trying to um study the
3:16
Speaker 1: craft and keep on working and just keep on working.
3:18
Speaker 1: I think it's about putting in that time and trying
3:22
Speaker 1: to tap into these characters, UM, into their thoughts, into
3:26
Speaker 1: their motions, into their experiences, and and really digging into
3:30
Speaker 1: that in on a constant basis. The more that you
3:34
Speaker 1: invest in it, then the more I think you can
3:38
Speaker 1: get an authenticity to the character, and I hope that, um,
3:42
Speaker 1: what fans connect to is to the authenticity that hopefully
3:46
Speaker 1: I'm trying to bring to the characters. What are some
3:49
Speaker 1: of your favorite movies. What are some of the things
3:51
Speaker 1: that left indelible impressions on you? What were the performances,
3:55
Speaker 1: Who are the actors who do you love? You know,
3:58
Speaker 1: those authentic performances and those raw and deep performances like
4:01
Speaker 1: Philip Seymour Hoffman was one of my favorites. Uh. Ryan
4:05
Speaker 1: Gosling is is one of my favorites. So I you know,
4:10
Speaker 1: I'm I'm more about those those kind of performances where
4:14
Speaker 1: I feel like you're actually that person and that character
4:17
Speaker 1: is going through an experience and I can connect to that,
4:21
Speaker 1: and and I tried to do that in my own work. Um,
4:25
Speaker 1: some of the TV shows I love, uh like Luther, Um,
4:29
Speaker 1: The Dark Knight is actually one of my all time
4:31
Speaker 1: favorite movies. Heath Ledger and The Joker and that, and
4:35
Speaker 1: you look at that in a way where that performance,
4:39
Speaker 1: uh is so raw and incredible, and he was following
4:43
Speaker 1: in people's footsteps and I think in a lot of
4:46
Speaker 1: ways he he gave his life to that performance, you know,
4:50
Speaker 1: And it's just an incredible thing for an actor to
4:54
Speaker 1: go so deep and so into the character u um.
5:00
Speaker 1: And then you see that I think on screen with
5:03
Speaker 1: who he was as the Joker, and it's just it's
5:07
Speaker 1: this this beautiful and painful thing to watch him do
5:11
Speaker 1: that as an actor, because it's so just again that
5:14
Speaker 1: word authentic, raw, unique, powerful, honest, truthful, and he had
5:21
Speaker 1: to go to some lengths to get to that place.
5:24
Speaker 1: And that when that movie came out, it made me
5:28
Speaker 1: so sad in the in the idea that he didn't
5:31
Speaker 1: get a chance to feel all that success. And I
5:34
Speaker 1: met him one time, um when yeah, I met him
5:38
Speaker 1: one time, and he made an impression on me that
5:41
Speaker 1: one time when I met him as a person, um,
5:43
Speaker 1: and that performance has made an impression on me. And
5:46
Speaker 1: and uh so I try to find a way to
5:51
Speaker 1: be raw and authentic and honest in in the work
5:53
Speaker 1: that I'm that I'm doing. So do you feel that
5:56
Speaker 1: you have That was gonna be my next question. Do
5:58
Speaker 1: you feel that you begin given the upper tunity to
6:00
Speaker 1: show the world what you're capable of doing, how deep
6:04
Speaker 1: you can go. I think I think each of the
6:07
Speaker 1: characters that I've played have been at the right time
6:10
Speaker 1: for me personally in professionally in terms of you know,
6:14
Speaker 1: Amy and Dan um Palladino with Gilmore Girls. They they
6:19
Speaker 1: took a shot on me. You know, I hadn't done
6:21
Speaker 1: that much, and so personally and professionally, that was really
6:24
Speaker 1: my first big job. And like we talked about earlier,
6:27
Speaker 1: you know, hitting a mark and finding your light like
6:29
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't know many of those things at
6:32
Speaker 1: that period of time, and so that was the right
6:35
Speaker 1: character for me personally and professionally at that time. Then
6:39
Speaker 1: The Good Wife, when I did that show, UM, the
6:42
Speaker 1: first couple of days, I realized, I don't know how
6:45
Speaker 1: long this show is gonna go, but I know that
6:48
Speaker 1: I'm surrounded by all these great actors, and UM, I
6:54
Speaker 1: need to learn every single second that I have from
6:57
Speaker 1: each of these actors. UM. In season two two, actually
7:01
Speaker 1: season two, in season three, I watched virtually all the dailies.
7:06
Speaker 1: They gave me access to the dailies, and uh, my
7:09
Speaker 1: friend Archie Pinjabi was on the show. She recommended that,
7:13
Speaker 1: and production was so kind to allow me to watch
7:16
Speaker 1: the dailies, and so I would comb through the dailies
7:19
Speaker 1: and my own performance, other actors performances and see what
7:23
Speaker 1: was working in certain takes and what was not. So
7:26
Speaker 1: to your original question, just trying to work as much
7:30
Speaker 1: as I can on the craft in different ways, to
7:33
Speaker 1: learn different things, whether it be watching um TV and film,
7:37
Speaker 1: or whether it be breaking down the dailies, or whether
7:39
Speaker 1: it be seeing that Archie Panjabi on The Good Wife
7:44
Speaker 1: what she did with the subtext. We were kind of
7:46
Speaker 1: each other's acting coaches actually on that job, and she
7:50
Speaker 1: could take these, uh, the lines, the words I think
7:54
Speaker 1: my character is thinking this. I'm like, okay, you can
7:56
Speaker 1: play that whatever, it's not gonna show up in the show,
7:59
Speaker 1: and it show it up and I was like, oh
8:01
Speaker 1: my gosh, like that just blew my mind. And then
8:04
Speaker 1: Josh Charles was great with the rehearsal process and how
8:08
Speaker 1: he would break down the rehearsal process. So I tried
8:11
Speaker 1: to take things from each of the actors that I
8:14
Speaker 1: learned to try to, like kind of Frankenstein the whole
8:17
Speaker 1: thing for myself in a lot of ways. And then
8:20
Speaker 1: I feel, more to your question, UM with with Conrad Hawkins,
8:25
Speaker 1: it's there, It's there's so much material there and we've
8:29
Speaker 1: been doing it for six seasons, that this is a
8:32
Speaker 1: fully realized character in terms of the journey he's taken.
8:37
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't have been able to do this job. Um,
8:42
Speaker 1: back when I was doing Gilmore Girls, I just I
8:44
Speaker 1: couldn't handle it. I didn't have the the knowledge and
8:47
Speaker 1: the understanding to do it. So to answer your question,
8:49
Speaker 1: I feel like personally and professionally is lined up for
8:53
Speaker 1: me in terms of the right characters and the right
8:57
Speaker 1: projects at the right time. And just to kind of conly,
9:00
Speaker 1: just keep trying to learn what do you think about next?
9:03
Speaker 1: I know the Resident is in six Okay, so this
9:08
Speaker 1: is a nice long run. How long do you think
9:11
Speaker 1: it can go? How long do you want it to
9:13
Speaker 1: go and do? What's what's beyond? What are you thinking?
9:18
Speaker 1: What do you want to do beyond that? Yeah, I
9:21
Speaker 1: mean it's with its season six now and coming up
9:23
Speaker 1: on that hundred episodes, if we it could be closer
9:28
Speaker 1: to the end than it is the beginning, because now
9:30
Speaker 1: you're getting to that symbolic number there in a hundred episodes. Um,
9:36
Speaker 1: So of course I'm not quite sure how long it
9:38
Speaker 1: will go. And for me, I I you know, kind
9:42
Speaker 1: of is those questions you asked me I'm fully invested
9:46
Speaker 1: in those characters and in the time in those characters,
9:50
Speaker 1: so my head is really consumed by this guy's thoughts
9:53
Speaker 1: in the show and trying to do the best that
9:55
Speaker 1: I can. I'm thinking in my head right now about
9:57
Speaker 1: certain scenes I'm gonna go back and work on this week.
10:00
Speaker 1: So to say it's it's it's tricky to think about
10:04
Speaker 1: the next thing. And as I mentioned before, I try
10:07
Speaker 1: tolign things up personally and professionally where I'm at with
10:11
Speaker 1: that next job. So it's hard to clear my head
10:15
Speaker 1: in this moment beyond Conrad Hawkins, beyond the resident, to
10:19
Speaker 1: know what that next thing is going to be, right,
10:22
Speaker 1: that lines up, whatever it may be. I'd like to
10:25
Speaker 1: think that the choices I've made there's some sort of
10:30
Speaker 1: universal theme that I think can connect to people. You know,
10:33
Speaker 1: we've talked about Gilmore Girls of course a lot today,
10:36
Speaker 1: but those universal themes of the mother and the daughter,
10:39
Speaker 1: and I mentioned with um Logan in terms of him,
10:43
Speaker 1: I felt he was pushing Rory to think outside the box,
10:47
Speaker 1: to um live her best life, to push herself. I
10:51
Speaker 1: felt like that was a theme that that people can
10:54
Speaker 1: connect to universally. With Conrad on the resident of the
10:59
Speaker 1: questions of life and death with the health care system.
11:03
Speaker 1: These are universal themes that I think will make an
11:06
Speaker 1: impact on audiences. So I try to look for those
11:09
Speaker 1: those themes that I feel are gonna be a connection
11:13
Speaker 1: that I can make. And that's really the again talking
11:17
Speaker 1: about the personal and professional lining up. You know, when
11:20
Speaker 1: I got the pilot for the Residents and read that,
11:23
Speaker 1: you know, I had a close friend in ten who
11:27
Speaker 1: passed away and I was there with him on his
11:29
Speaker 1: last day. Um My mom was a nurse. Um a
11:35
Speaker 1: close friend of mine. Her mother had passed away in
11:38
Speaker 1: and I got the pilot in twenty seventeen, and so
11:41
Speaker 1: I was in that headspace of of experiencing those heavy
11:46
Speaker 1: losses that I thought that, Okay, this is something that
11:50
Speaker 1: I can bring in authentic voice too, because I've actually
11:53
Speaker 1: experienced some of these losses and these questions of of
11:56
Speaker 1: life and death are universal to people. So uh, that's
12:00
Speaker 1: why personally and profession at that time, the resident was
12:03
Speaker 1: the right choice in So talk to me a little
12:07
Speaker 1: bit about the kinds of meetings. Are you getting the
12:11
Speaker 1: kinds of meetings that you want? An independent film and
12:14
Speaker 1: feature film is the feature side? Um? Um, uh calling out?
12:21
Speaker 1: Are they offering opportunities? Are you meeting directors? Are what's
12:25
Speaker 1: going on over there? Because I personally want to see
12:28
Speaker 1: you in some really classy, gritty indie projects because you
12:33
Speaker 1: have such you know, I don't know you that well.
12:36
Speaker 1: I spent some time with you and we did some
12:39
Speaker 1: work together. I didn't think we did some really good
12:41
Speaker 1: work together. I watched you do phenomenal work with with
12:46
Speaker 1: with with Greg, with with with your dad in the
12:48
Speaker 1: show Mr Huntsberger. I mean it was just extraordinary work.
12:51
Speaker 1: As I mentioned before, absolutely the highest level work that
12:54
Speaker 1: you can do, and you did it thin ease. I watched.
12:58
Speaker 1: I don't want to beat a dead horse, you're but
13:00
Speaker 1: I watched that scene twenty times and marveled at the skill.
13:05
Speaker 1: Just was like, man, I never realized. So I want
13:10
Speaker 1: people to discover you and what you're capable of doing.
13:13
Speaker 1: And I think independent film is a good because you have.
13:17
Speaker 1: And now that I'm getting to know spending a little
13:19
Speaker 1: time with you and really talking to you and see
13:21
Speaker 1: how you interact with people, UM, I've gained such a
13:26
Speaker 1: new respect for you. Thank you, and I just you're
13:29
Speaker 1: such a solid grounded guy. You treat everybody with respect.
13:33
Speaker 1: You have this depth of talent and now I and
13:36
Speaker 1: but there is a sadness there, you know, and I
13:40
Speaker 1: have that too. I feel it too. I've had a
13:42
Speaker 1: lot of loss since two thousand and eight and and
13:45
Speaker 1: it and it changes a person. And I want to
13:51
Speaker 1: see that. And you'll put those in the performance. And
13:53
Speaker 1: you are putting and you can't help but put those
13:56
Speaker 1: in the performance. So our our independent film to Rector's
14:00
Speaker 1: producers reaching out, are you getting these meetings because if
14:03
Speaker 1: you're not, you should be well, thank you and thank
14:05
Speaker 1: you for those words. I mean that that one it's
14:09
Speaker 1: it's just beautiful to hear that. But also that does
14:11
Speaker 1: it will be something that um truly will push me
14:15
Speaker 1: and inspire me to keep to keep going. You know,
14:18
Speaker 1: in terms of being an actor, we all support each
14:22
Speaker 1: other in that way so that when you're going through
14:24
Speaker 1: a tough time or on set, you know, I'm gonna
14:26
Speaker 1: think of this moment with you, or or when I'm
14:29
Speaker 1: done with the resident, I'm gonna think of this moment
14:31
Speaker 1: with you in the words that you said, because we
14:33
Speaker 1: all need that that confidence in that push like I'll
14:36
Speaker 1: you know, I'll take pictures of when I'm on hiatus
14:39
Speaker 1: with my god daughter, for example, and I'll just look
14:42
Speaker 1: at it and our video or she'll send me a
14:44
Speaker 1: voice message. You know, we all need those uplifting things.
14:47
Speaker 1: So thank you so much for saying that. That's that,
14:50
Speaker 1: That's very kind of you to say. And yeah, I
14:58
Speaker 1: want to see more Matt Sucre and classy independence. I
15:03
Speaker 1: want to see in feature films. I mean, what a package, right,
15:08
Speaker 1: I mean you want to comment on this from like,
15:11
Speaker 1: I don't want to put you on the spot or
15:12
Speaker 1: embarrass you. I'm not trying to know. No, I don't
15:14
Speaker 1: feel thank you, but Tara from your perspective. I want
15:18
Speaker 1: to get Tara's perspective because I want to hear what
15:22
Speaker 1: you and your friends uh talk about when you mentioned
15:26
Speaker 1: in Matt Sucre, because Amy, like Amy's just over the
15:30
Speaker 1: moon about you, She's crazy about you. Please give her
15:32
Speaker 1: my life. We have we have here we well, first off,
15:39
Speaker 1: thank you for doing this my pleasure. I have been
15:42
Speaker 1: a Gilmore Girls fan from the very beginning and watch
15:44
Speaker 1: with my mom growing up. So this is like working
15:47
Speaker 1: with you guys is just very surreal. Um, it really is.
15:52
Speaker 1: It really is, like I I never thought like however
15:55
Speaker 1: old I was when when the show came out that
15:57
Speaker 1: I'd be sitting across from you talking to you. Um,
15:59
Speaker 1: I will say, though I I started. Yeah, the female perspective,
16:03
Speaker 1: I think you bring something that you're just so likable.
16:07
Speaker 1: Like you know, there's some characters even I watched The
16:09
Speaker 1: Resident as well, and I've I've binged it through the pandemic,
16:13
Speaker 1: and there are times where we kind of or even
16:15
Speaker 1: as logan like we want to hate you, but we
16:17
Speaker 1: can't do you know what I mean? And I think
16:20
Speaker 1: that just you as a character and talking to you
16:22
Speaker 1: like you know earlier, I just camp to you and
16:24
Speaker 1: I will say you are one of the kindest people
16:26
Speaker 1: I've I've met today, um, and and things like that.
16:29
Speaker 1: I think, um, people remember that, like I'm gonna leave
16:33
Speaker 1: and say, like, you know, you're one of the kindest
16:34
Speaker 1: people I've met, those little moments. But I will say,
16:37
Speaker 1: as a female perspective, Um, if we go back to
16:41
Speaker 1: Gilmore Girls, there was that moment where you really pushed Rory,
16:46
Speaker 1: and I think Rory needed that in her life. And
16:48
Speaker 1: I think that people, um, like myself look at that
16:51
Speaker 1: as like, oh I wish I had like a logan
16:53
Speaker 1: to my life. I wish I had a boyfriend, like
16:54
Speaker 1: like logan, Um. Yeah, so I think is that what
16:58
Speaker 1: you wanted? Sky? Is that what you want to That's
17:01
Speaker 1: I mean, perfectly said, right, perfectly said. Because these these
17:05
Speaker 1: these much beloved characters, the the Laurelai and the Rory.
17:09
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if there are two more
17:12
Speaker 1: iconic characters. And and I mean they're up there in
17:16
Speaker 1: the top ten of television history mother daughter or you know,
17:19
Speaker 1: maybe in the top five. But to be it, but
17:23
Speaker 1: to be a part, to facilitate into aid and to
17:25
Speaker 1: help and to try to guide. I am looking forward
17:29
Speaker 1: to seeing these episodes. I'm not we're not there yet.

Speaker 1: is great. Thank you. We're having fun. We're having fun
17:52
Speaker 1: and people are gonna be very excited that that you're
17:56
Speaker 1: on UM. Talk a little bit more about what formed
18:00
Speaker 1: um your desire to get into the business and to
18:04
Speaker 1: to become an actor. Because I know you went to
18:06
Speaker 1: college around here. Uh, in College of Charles, Charleston. You
18:11
Speaker 1: you played tennis. I did so a naturally competitive person. Um,
18:17
Speaker 1: So tell us a little bit about how the acting
18:19
Speaker 1: button hit you. I didn't grow up around it. It
18:23
Speaker 1: was one of those things where I thought that was
18:26
Speaker 1: not something that I could do that other people did that. Um,
18:32
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's it's I didn't know it
18:36
Speaker 1: was a job. I I any of that. Um. But
18:40
Speaker 1: what I always did is I created characters a lot
18:43
Speaker 1: of times. And and my my brothers and my sister, Um,
18:47
Speaker 1: they all inspired me to keep pushing to make these
18:51
Speaker 1: characters when I was at home. But again, never thought
18:54
Speaker 1: about acting at all. A major in history and political science.
18:57
Speaker 1: I was planning on being a lawyer. My sister when
19:01
Speaker 1: I was a sophomore in college, had no plans to
19:04
Speaker 1: act at all. And we're walking on the beach here
19:07
Speaker 1: and not too far from here in Charleston, and she says,
19:10
Speaker 1: you're going to be an actor. And I'm like, what
19:12
Speaker 1: are you talking about? And she's like, you're going to
19:14
Speaker 1: be an actor. I just I just know it. And
19:17
Speaker 1: this was then years after I was a working actor.
19:20
Speaker 1: I asked her. I came back and I said, why
19:23
Speaker 1: did you think I was going to be an actor?
19:24
Speaker 1: And she said, because when you created those characters, you
19:28
Speaker 1: made me believe that you were that character. And then
19:31
Speaker 1: she said, more importantly, you believe that you were that character.
19:35
Speaker 1: So uh, and I hadn't asked that was like five
19:38
Speaker 1: or six, you mean was probably around Gilmour Girls time,
19:41
Speaker 1: So um, I think you know. I I loved telling stories.
19:46
Speaker 1: I loved for example, as a kid, I loved, uh
19:49
Speaker 1: The Incredible Hulk a TV show, and after that, after
19:52
Speaker 1: I watched an episode, I would go and smash things
19:55
Speaker 1: up and punch pillowcases. My mom would uh die my
19:59
Speaker 1: underwear purple before there was under rus. So I would
20:02
Speaker 1: really watch that and be affected by it and then
20:06
Speaker 1: want to become those those characters. And then when I
20:10
Speaker 1: was thinking about it as a career, I felt like, Okay, well,
20:13
Speaker 1: if I do have an opportunity to do it, then
20:15
Speaker 1: maybe I can impact other people. And you know this,
20:18
Speaker 1: this convention is a perfect example of We've experienced so
20:22
Speaker 1: many people who have been so impacted by the work
20:25
Speaker 1: that we've done, and that is the ultimate thing, is
20:29
Speaker 1: to to make an impact on individuals that I may
20:33
Speaker 1: never meet. Of course, here we've met some, but there's
20:36
Speaker 1: gonna be some people I never meet, and you and
20:38
Speaker 1: I have had an impact on them. So that's kind
20:42
Speaker 1: of the impetus for why I became an actor was
20:46
Speaker 1: creating those characters. I had the support of my family
20:49
Speaker 1: to go and try it, and the feeling like I
20:52
Speaker 1: had it was purposeful for me to make an impact
20:57
Speaker 1: on others like other shows had made and care Richer's
21:00
Speaker 1: had made on me. Tell us about can you tell
21:03
Speaker 1: me one character that what's the most memorable character you
21:08
Speaker 1: created when you were getting a little older that your
21:10
Speaker 1: sister may be referring to that just was so memorable
21:14
Speaker 1: for her. Man Um. You know, my brother and I
21:21
Speaker 1: we were on a bunk beds together and we would
21:23
Speaker 1: always say at the end of each night, we'd say,
21:25
Speaker 1: tell me a story you want to hear, and that
21:28
Speaker 1: was our thing. You want to hear the one about
21:29
Speaker 1: the motorcycle game, you want to hear the one about
21:31
Speaker 1: the gun. You want to hear one about this, And
21:32
Speaker 1: we would do that. But oftentimes I went to um Um.
21:36
Speaker 1: I went to church a lot when I was a kid,
21:39
Speaker 1: and so I would usually come home after church and
21:44
Speaker 1: give a whole another sermon, so in the living room,
21:48
Speaker 1: and I would, you know, I would, But and I
21:50
Speaker 1: wanted everything as much as it could possibly be believable
21:55
Speaker 1: from what we just saw, in terms of little pieces
21:59
Speaker 1: of head, in terms of the cloth, in terms of
22:03
Speaker 1: um my mannerisms, in terms of what I was, what
22:07
Speaker 1: what I was wearing in the wardrobe, even at that
22:10
Speaker 1: young age. And I'm very much like that now again
22:13
Speaker 1: going back to your original a question of just trying
22:17
Speaker 1: to capture everything in order to make it as authentic
22:21
Speaker 1: as possible. So the one that jumps to my head
22:24
Speaker 1: is I would would come home after church and I
22:26
Speaker 1: would basically do my own my own ceremony, and and
22:31
Speaker 1: uh and and and be a priest, there be a pastor.
22:35
Speaker 1: So that that's the one that I remember. Yeah, interesting, listen, Uh,
22:40
Speaker 1: you've given us enough time. If there if there's anything
22:43
Speaker 1: you want to talk about that we haven't mentioned, or
22:46
Speaker 1: you want you want to talk about something, we can
22:48
Speaker 1: talk about it. No. No, I'm just uh, you know,
22:51
Speaker 1: I'm I you know, when they asked to do this,
22:55
Speaker 1: I wanted, I've wanted to do it, and I'm I'm
22:58
Speaker 1: excited to see you and be here here, and I'm
23:00

Speaker 1: You know, we obviously we worked together UM a long
23:26
Speaker 1: time ago, and and to be able to be here
23:29

23:33
Speaker 1: journey we've had since then as people and as actors
23:38
Speaker 1: is important. You know, it's special, and it's important. And
23:44
Speaker 1: what we did on the show and where we are now,
23:48
Speaker 1: there's a certain instant connection there that you have with
23:51
Speaker 1: the experiences that we went through. So it's really I mean,
23:55
Speaker 1: this is a gift to me in terms of being
23:58
Speaker 1: able to mark this as UH an actor and as
24:02
Speaker 1: a person, and to be here in Charleston to reflect
24:04
Speaker 1: on these things. Here's the lesson that Matt Zukri is
