- 0:33Speaker 1: director for the upcoming play at the theater. Oh yeah,
- 0:37Speaker 1: that's great. Um, it's nice to hear from you. Thank
- 0:41Speaker 1: you for calling me. Well, it's nice to speak with you.
- 0:43Speaker 1: One of my associates said that I should call you
- 0:46Speaker 1: because you had an impressive tryout during the casting call. Gosh,
- 0:50Speaker 1: I didn't know I was that good. I've been kind
- 0:52Speaker 1: of waiting on pins and needles, you know. Oh well,
- 0:54Speaker 1: and she's humble too. Well, you know, I don't want
- 0:59Speaker 1: to take anything for granted, right right, Well, listen, I
- 1:02Speaker 1: wasn't there, and since I am the final judge, I
- 1:05Speaker 1: get to make all the decisions. Of course, of course, yes,
- 1:10Speaker 1: I need to hear it, hear what your British accent?
- 1:14Speaker 1: Of course they said that you did an amazing British accent.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Oh okay, my British accent. Is that what you wanted
- 1:21Speaker 1: to hear? Yes? Anytime now where I've started, I'm sorry
- 1:27Speaker 1: you did what I've started speaking in a British accent?
- 1:32Speaker 1: Can you not hear me? Oh? Oh oh dear? You
- 1:37Speaker 1: call that a British accent? Well yeah, well, well what
- 1:40Speaker 1: would you call it? Well, I wouldn't call it a
- 1:42Speaker 1: British accent. Perhaps you should take some notes here. I'll
- 1:44Speaker 1: do an accent for you. I'm very good at these
- 1:47Speaker 1: British British British. Here we go, Hello, Governor, how's you
- 1:54Speaker 1: and my day? I'm doing today with your curios? Oh
- 2:00Speaker 1: that's your British accent. That is the British accent. I
- 2:05Speaker 1: can tell you're impressed. I've been doing this quite a while,
- 2:07Speaker 1: so don't feel bad. Oh I don't. But it's certainly
- 2:11Speaker 1: a lot different than I was expecting. I don't think
- 2:14Speaker 1: British is going to work for you. Do you do
- 2:16Speaker 1: any others? Yeah? That's you like me to say? Is
- 2:21Speaker 1: it's an Intelhue's parton to play I think book. Yeah,
- 2:28Speaker 1: oh that was you doing a German accent? Well, yes,
- 2:33Speaker 1: of course it was. What would you call that one? Oh?
- 2:36Speaker 1: Well that's not very good, is it? I think it's
- 2:39Speaker 1: quite good. I've had training and I performed in this
- 2:43Speaker 1: accent many times as a professional actor. Here let me
- 2:47Speaker 1: throw you a real German accent and so you can
- 2:49Speaker 1: hear the difference. Here we go, I've got a pull
- 2:51Speaker 1: from German. German, German. Here we go, Gutontogen, goose norfan.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Perhaps we could go see if pretzels have been tuned
- 3:01Speaker 1: up nicely today. Seriously, are you really the director? Yes,
- 3:07Speaker 1: I'm the director. Are you really an actor? Of course
- 3:11Speaker 1: I'm an actor. What kind of a director you? Is
- 3:13Speaker 1: this some kind of a joke or what? Well? I
- 3:16Speaker 1: would act like it and show a little bit of
- 3:19Speaker 1: respect if you want to part in this play. Well,
- 3:21Speaker 1: I don't know who hire you, but it doesn't sound
- 3:23Speaker 1: like you've done much directing before. Well, the theater hired me,
- 3:28Speaker 1: and I've done a lot of directing, a lot of directing,
- 3:30Speaker 1: a lot of acting, a lot of dancing, a lot
- 3:32Speaker 1: of yoga. I do a lot of things. Yoga. What's
- 3:36Speaker 1: yoga got to do with it doesn't mean anything. We're
- 3:38Speaker 1: talking about professional theatrical production. Okay, you're obviously new to
- 3:43Speaker 1: the theater, then if you don't know how yoga works
- 3:44Speaker 1: into the whole thing, So that's fine. I just need
- 3:47Speaker 1: to hear another accent. Well, you know what, any accent
- 3:50Speaker 1: I've given you, I think it's been pretty damned good.
- 3:53Speaker 1: So why would I even pry. You're not going to
- 3:55Speaker 1: give me a part. I am a harsh critic, yes,
- 3:58Speaker 1: but just try me do a Southern accent, something super
- 4:01Speaker 1: easy like that. Well, this is my Southern accent, for
- 4:06Speaker 1: which I have also been professionally coached. Is this good enough? Gun?
- 4:12Speaker 1: Oh boy? Well, you know it might be good for
- 4:15Speaker 1: some people, but not for me. Here's what a real
- 4:17Speaker 1: Southern accent would sound like. Okay, hey you all, we're
- 4:22Speaker 1: gonna get in Morodato. Oh my god, down like a
- 4:26Speaker 1: Southern runk. Well, thank you, that's what I was going for,
- 4:29Speaker 1: a Southern drunk. So it proves my point that I
- 4:32Speaker 1: know a thing or two about doing accents. Well, you
- 4:35Speaker 1: may think you know a thing or two, but I
- 4:37Speaker 1: think you know absolutely nothing. So I don't think I
- 4:41Speaker 1: could work with you. I've got a better idea reckoning
- 4:45Speaker 1: in my head, y'all that I tell you it's a
- 4:48Speaker 1: prank phone call. Mark, Yeah, I should just tell you.
- 4:53Speaker 1: How What do you mean a prank phone call? Oh?
- 4:55Speaker 1: I mean this is actually Jewel from Brook and Jewel
- 4:57Speaker 1: in the morning doing a phone tap on you. Your
- 4:59Speaker 1: husband Terry set you up. Oh my god. He said
- 5:03Speaker 1: that you tried out for a plan, haven't heard back yet,
- 5:06Speaker 1: and wanted me to audition you over the phone. I
- 5:08Speaker 1: really thought you were the director and I'm thinking, who
- 5:11Speaker 1: is this idiots that they hire? Oh no, you were thinking,
- 5:14Speaker 1: how did that guy get those amazing professionally trained accents? Yeah, okay, well,
- 5:20Speaker 1: thank you for your time. And oh, chitio, Darling, I
- 5:26Speaker 1: don't know what that is. Week up every morning with
- 5:31Speaker 1: dual phones, weekday mornings on the twenties outs eighty six
