  Speaker 1: fifteen if we're we're really we're really compounding all the times,

  Speaker 1: all the times that we haven't talked to each other.
• 2:32

  Speaker 4: Of course, my name is William Scray. I of course
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: played Connor on Month to Month.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Hey, what's up. It's me Trinton Deaf and I played

• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Hey, I'm Sarah Barra, and I played Goldie, and of
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: course I'm Rebecca Play and I did play Sandy on
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Month to Month.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: And what a time it was.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Oh truly some of the best years of my life.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: I would say, it's so crazy.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: I mean, when we all got that job, we of course,
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: that was our first job in the industry, right, none
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: of us had ever been on a sitcom before. None
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: of us were ever the leads of a sitcom.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Right, right, that's a super fun thing to talk about. Actually,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: what was everybody doing when they got the call? The
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: infamous call?
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: Well, I had zero credits zero. I think we all did,
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: and we just booked it big almost.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: I don't know, well, I had that one credit. I
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: was on the X File. I played that one guy
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: that fell off of a porch and then bust into
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: three thousand cockroaches. That's actually what got me seen four
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: Month to Month because they liked the way that I
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: was freaking out in the specific scene, because I said,
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: I'm exploding, I'm exploding, and as you got, no Connor
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: was kind of a neurotic guy, and so they said,
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: what if this cockroach man actually didn't have cockroaches inside
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: of him and he was just living in an apartment
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: trying to make it month a month while working in
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: a bagel shop with his friends.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: That's crazy. That's I actually didn't know that.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was really awesome. But what were you guys doing?
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Well? I was doing I was actually in Baltimore at
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: the time, doing just mostly improv and and a little
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: bit of clowning. And they, you know, just by chance,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: the creators Sasha and Elkin came to my show and
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: they loved me. And during my audition, you know, I'm
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: a clown. So I was breaking the fourth ball left
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: and right, Actually, I was going, like, what is this line,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: what's the point of this line? This is a dumb line.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: You're dumb for writing this, and they were just needless
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: to say eating it up.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: They well, I mean we had to respect your process,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: you know, because you're a stand up. You're like, I mean,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: you do Improvy Cup for the comedy world, Like, we
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: have to respect your expertise on that. And if that
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: involves calling us out, stopping the scene, storming off set,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: you know, it's all part of the process.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: It's the comedy world for sure.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: That's comedy world. You know. It's just like comedy training
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: teaches you to walk off if you're not satisfied, if
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: you're not having a good set, if you don't feel good,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: you get off that stage immediately. So yeah, you know
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: that's how I kind of got discovered for the show,
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: and it changed my life immediately when I found.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: It, you know, right right, I mean personally, I was
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: sitting in a pool when I got the call and Elkin.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Elkin was on the phone and he said, Rebecca, you
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: got it, And I said, got what what are you
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: talking about? Because I had forgotten that I sent in
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: this tape because I get so many tapes. I send
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: in so many tapes, and I've been up for so
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: many pilots at this point that I just couldn't even remember.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Like I was grinding so hard in New York City
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: for about eighteen months or so, and just like really
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: putting in my time. And I eventually did get this
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: meeting with Elkin after some time of grinding. I should
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: disclose my father was the president of NBC for about
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: two decades.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: But you were grinding for eighteen months. I mean, give
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: yourself some credit.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Right, I mean there were so many times around month
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: two months six that I almost quit, right, I almost
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I almost hung up my hat. I mean I was
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: sweating my ass off in coffee shops, not working them,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: but getting coffee at them. You know, it really gets
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: you down, Rebecca.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: Don't think I didn't notice you say, hang up your hat,
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: maybe slyly mentioning your hat line. By the way, those
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: bucket hats are the hottest thing. They are the hottest
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: thing in this town. Right now. I feel like I've
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: seen every single fourteen year old is wearing a Flay
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: hat right on their hand.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: No, the teens love the play hats. They love the
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Flay hats.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: They're fun. I love the language that you use on them.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: I love like the fun little tropes that you put right.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I kind of make my own language on them.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, what was that my favorite one? It says gongy pong.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So that is a combination of a German word,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: a French word, a Japanese word, and a Canadian French
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: word that they don't use in France, that they only
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: use in you know, Montreal. And so I like to
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: kind of play with words and sounds and letters and
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: make my own words.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: Does it mean anything to you?
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: It means peace and prosperity.
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: Gonky pong to both of you, then all three of you.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly exactly.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: I have a dukudango fingy fango in my car actually
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: that I wear a lot.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: But you guys are so supportive, And hey, I got
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: another shipment of Wanky Panky's. They're coming in. They're coming in.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: You guys are gonna be the first.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: I probably shouldn't even be saying this on air, but
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: you guys are going to be the first to get them.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Wanky Pangy is coming out summer two thousand and twenty three, and.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: Wanky Panky that's the one that means relax.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Yes, it means relax. It comes from the Chinese word
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: as well as the British word as well as the
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Dutch word. We're combining the ball and it means relax.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: I mean none of the words that I took it
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: from actually mean relax. It's sort of my own spin
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: on a bunch of different letters and sounds.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: You're only summer twenty twenty three, that's what that feels
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: like a long time to Really? Is that fifteen years
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: from now?
• 8:21

  Speaker 1: So it's a fifteen year rollout plan.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Where wait, yeah, my assistant Gordon is telling me it's
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: two years.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: I'm counting backwards.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: Ask Gordon if thinking about twenty three twenty three feels
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: like fifteen years.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Anyway, I'm I'm blab I could blabber on about my
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: hats all day long. You know I love the hot Sara.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: How do you get started here?
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: Well, you guys know that this was my first acting job,
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: right right? I was and still I'm a model, you know,
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: like I just grew up from a model family.
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: It's just our family business is modeling.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: So I was in.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: Santa Pez when I got the call.
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: I was doing a heavy on ad campaign back i'd
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: say fourteen fifteen years ago, and my phone rang.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: It was Elkin and Sasha. Actually I got both of
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: them on the.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: Phone and they were like, are you sitting down? And
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: I went, yeah, I'm sitting down in santra Pez.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: What's up? And they said, you got it, kid, and
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: I said, oh my god, I'm gonna need a coach.
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, Roz, Ozzie, Ozzie Well, Ozzie Roz, Ozzie
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: ro Ozzie Roz.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Ozzie Roz.
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: Well, it's because for a while Roz took a vacation
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: and I did have a sub that was named Nausy
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: because Roz goes by Ouzzie.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: And eventually we just sort of all called each of
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: them both of the names for sure.
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: But Rozzie was my on set coach. I wish he
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: was here today. He feels like a fifth member of
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: the cast.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: I love him so much. Yeah, I see, I was confused.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: I was calling him Ozzie Roz because I thought he
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: was from Australia, like Ozzie Roz or Rozzie, Ozzie, Rozzie.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: But I guess I was mistaken. He would have probably
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: had an Australian accent if he was from Australia.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Maybe later we can call him.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: William's assistant is actually whispering in my ear right now.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: He says his name was Kyle.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: No, that doesn't sound.
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: Right, Gordon. If you could maybe not talk to the
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: other cast members, that would be really great. By the way, Sorry,
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: off to talk to him, but you're you're my assistant.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I don't want to overstep.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: No, no, and I'm sorry that my assistant is whispering
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: in your ear. That it's inappropriate and he will be
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: dealt with appropriate. No, no, no, no, no, I'm sorry.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry for Gordon. I'm sorry for Gordon. Okay, I
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: want to apologize for Gordon.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Gordon. It's okay, Gordon, it's okay. William wasn't listening and
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: so you went to me, and that's that's fine. You know,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Gordon is a headstrong. He wants to get his message
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: across and he's going to do really well in this industry.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he wishes.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about our pilot. Can we talk about the pilot.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: I would love to talk about what I would love
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: to I also wanted to bring up it's so incredible
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: that they recreated the set for us to record.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: No, look at this, I feel like I'm just right
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: and flipping bagels.
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: It's so crazy that bagel shop we all ran together.
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: I mean, they recreated the shop with painstaking detail.
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: There's Goldie's big lazy boy chair right insist on sleeping
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: in every day.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: She loves we have Sandy's big cuckoo clock over up
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: up top because she's kookie. You know, she was a
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: kookie girl.
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: She was the artist about What about Dougie's chicken coop over?
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, there it is there. It is my chicken
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: coop that was.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: It looks the exact same. That must be the exact
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: one or a replica.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: It's probably either the exact same or a replica.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I think the same chickens.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: It's either the exact same chickens or replicas. I don't know,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: but I think it's got to be one of those
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: two for sure.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: And it's so funny that they brought back the chickens
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: because that was something for the pilot and they never had.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: It again going into the pipe. It was so fun
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: because you know, it was like this idea of for
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: people from different parts of America come together in New
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: York and just try to struggle through it.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: You know, Dougie, of course, the great American South, right,
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: bringing his chickens to New York City, this.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Confused little boy going ooh, well, I'm I supposed to pull.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: My chickens exactly, And I would say, those are the
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: exact chickens we've probably used in the in the show.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, either the exact ones or a replica.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: It's one of the two. It's got to be one
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: of the two. God.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: And then so we got great American South Dougie over here,
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: and then Sandy coming over from the West Coast Callie
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: girls Rascos.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: It's so funny about the part actually, because they had
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: originally written Sandy as this like very serious goth character,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: and then when I read it in the audition, they said,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: you're not doing this right at all, and so they
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: rewrote it for my voice.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: I can't remember. I can't forget that first line you had,
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: where do I put my surfboard? And remember you knocked
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: over my coffee. I had a big coffee on the table,
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: A really really big coffee on the table, and you
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: knocked that.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: That coffee was huge.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: It was one hundred and twenty eight ounces. My character
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: was really high strung, right, Connor.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah from Yeah you were in New York.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're the only one from the East Coast.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you were New York. And so you were always
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: carrying around that coffee because you have placed this to.
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: Be I have to go. I was busy, I was
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: moving right, I was making.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Change, and I for one love that. Within the first
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: two minutes of the pilot, we each brought a big
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: object that represented where we came from.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: Well, and that brings up Goldiees object.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, by the way, you brought that big replica of
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: the Great Lakes because you're from the north.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: I brought a huge lake. It was like a replica
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: of a big lake.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: It was like one of those like one of those
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: like mini train stations that boys have, except it was
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: just a lake water.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was the simplicity of the pilot. Right. We
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: all had these four objects we needed to make room
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: for in this small fucking shithole of an apartment, and.
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: Here we are making room for our objects. When actually
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: we're making room for each other in each other's lives.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: Right exactly. And so it was a really great way.
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: And I've heard they actually teach this pilot in a
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: lot of pilot classes.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: I believe it. I believe it.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: They show it as a great way because you meet
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: all of the characters, and then of course you see
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: their great weaknesses and act too. Somebody from their past
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: calls and calls them and talks to them about their
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: short companies.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Yes, right, and they kind of go one by one
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: and each one like they go. It's two minutes of
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: the objects, and then it's two minutes of consecutive phone
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: calls by each of our backstory. And then from then
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: we just launchraed in and you can't even tell what's happening.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, the exposition happens so fast.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: It happens so fast it goes, it goes where we
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: come from objects straight to phone.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: Chicken, coop, surfboard, a cup of coffee, Great Lakes.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: And then of course I get a call from my
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: mom saying I'll never make it as an actor in
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: New York. Yeah, come back to the South when you're ready,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: come back to making Missouri. She was like, how day
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: I missed my son and the audience ate it up
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: and I go, you stupid mom, you know, and the
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: audience just loved it.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: It was like it loved it.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: It was just like one of those moments when you
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: first get on that sound stage and you realize kind
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: of what you're playing with. I mean, granted, we'd never
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: had a live audience. It was always canned laughter, but
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: being on this downstage and experiencing what it would be
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: like potentially to have an audience, yeah.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Feeling the energy of the canned laughter every time they
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: pressed the button.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: Feeling the director and a couple of the people on
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: set and crew laughing for where there would be laughs,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: electric electric, Well who else got caused.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: Because the mom calls and then of course.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah we get you know, Sandy is from the West Coast,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: and so she gets a call from a marijuana shop
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: and they say, Sandy, your marijuana is ready to pick up.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: And I say, I'm not doing that life anymore.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: It's like she has to leave that life behind, she
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: has to leave that chill life behind for the fast
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: paced nature of New York City, which is.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: So fun because in two thousand and three, marijuana was
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: not illegal in California at all.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: I actually heard about this. I read about this. This
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: was the first show that you maanly portrayed a marijuana
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: shop and that's his anywhere on a smoker, you know.
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: And at the time, I remember, no other shows were
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: doing it. But it didn't feel weird when you did it.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: And then Connor got the call.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's when I get the call, right. I
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: love this because they did show, you know, a recovering alcoholic,
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: you know exactly.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: I got a call from my sponsor saying, we know
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: that you are still drinking and and you're gonna lose
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: custody of your kids because he had a young son.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: You guys, remember that's what we But just for the pilot,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I think that, Yeah, I've never meet the Sun, which
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: I think is so interesting.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: Because I lose. So you're seeing the point of view
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: of somebody who has lost full custody of their kid
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: and then he goes on to live his own life,
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: which I thought was incredible.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: That to Bagel, and it was funny. You know, you're
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: like you. We always referenced your son Jacob, who's like
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: somewhere else, but you're totally fine with it. You don't
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: feel an ounce of regret because this show is funny.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Let's not forget this is a comedy.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: This show is so bold. You never get to see
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: what happens to the person who loses custody in a
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: movie or TV show. I want to shout out Elkin
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: for living this life. It was so brave of him
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: to put this in the show that he created. I
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: remember reading this and he said, you're playing me. And
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: I remember he was drinking, and I'm not joking, the
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: biggest cup of coffee I've ever seen. And I would say,
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: how much of this is real? How much of this
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: is fake? And I used to He was hard on me.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: He was really, it was really hard on me. He
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: would come after me all the time. You would say, hey,
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: you're not doing me right, and I would say, oh,
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: I'm playing a character, and he said, you are me.
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: And we had we came to blows a couple of times.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Remember that that was in tense days on set. For sure,
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: those which you would like straight, You'd like, this is
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: a character, this is me, this is a character, this
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: is me. Punch punch knives are out, coffee's flying, and I.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Want to give props to you, because, as we all know, Elk,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: you know, uh, we had a bit of a habit
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: of cocaine and a little bit a little bit, and
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: he would often make you do lines right before a
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: scene because you know, he's like, I'm in that headspace.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: You have to be in that headspace too.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: I certainly felt like I was doing a different show
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: than you guys were sometimes because.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: You know, you were doing this very dark character.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: It was light and fun for me most of the time, but.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: It was really light and bud for me a lot
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: of the time, as well as a blasphemy.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: Well, then I get my call, Yeah, what about your call?
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: And so I get a call from my hot, toxic
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: ex boyfriend, right, And this is when we start to
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: learn that my character's really hot.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Right, because on first glance we see Goldie's this very
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: pretty girl, and then within the three minute mark we
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: learned that she's also hot.
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: Yes, Because then I think the costumes did a great job.
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: You were wearing a lot of flowy kind of robes
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: and clothes kind of drapy, and then of course it
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: all gets caught in an event and it rips off
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: in your head.
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: And right at the moment of exposition. It's like a
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: physical and the dialogue came together. There goes my moon
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: move into the air vent and then we know who
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: this character is, right, and I mean, yeah, the ex
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: boyfriend calls her and he's like, you can't do this.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: The moon move goes out.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: And there's that running gag where Goldie always runs off
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: at the end of the night to call her ex boyfriend.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: We always would make jokes that you guys had a
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: twelve hour day and I had an eleven hour day
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: because I was always off having a phone call with
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: the X.
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and that became the big catchphrase of the show, right,
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: I gotta call my ex. Yep, I gotta go call
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: my ex. I mean that was on shirts. I remember
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: I remember seeing I think they used it in six
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Flags Merch. I mean I remember seeing I Gotta call
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: my ex with tweetybird next to bugs Bunny.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we did a six flag steal.
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: I love this roller coaster they have and I tweet
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: about it all the time.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: And finally they say.
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: And then the the month to month coaster that they.
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: Made month to month coaster.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, all we were supposed to all be together.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I was supposed to be, but we.
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: Legally couldn't be together on camera, all four of us
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: because of our contract.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: We couldn't all work together in the same prodcast.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: That was a tough contract to sign. Here's the question
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: I've been wondering, you know, like, what were those first days?
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Two questions, What were those first days of immense fame like?
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: And then the second question is what was it like
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: finishing and walking out of that door?
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Oh, there's that's two huge things.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: We started and we ended in two different places right,
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: completely different people.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: To and I feel like I felt personally, I felt
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: the fame. Once we had that the second episode of
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: season two, that's when I knew this is not just famous,
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: this is earth shatteringly famous, you know, because I was
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: walking down I was in Los Angeles, just walking down
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: the street, and somebody threw a water bottle at me.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: It's filled with piss, It gets all over me, and
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: they say, I love you, I fucking love you. Can
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: I have your baby? And that's when I knew, like,
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: this is a whole nother level of fame. Somebody's throwing
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: their pe at me but also wants to have sex
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: with me. You gotta be fair.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fame. And let me tell you something. That's
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Hollywood Boulevard.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I can't believe.
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: For the whole run of the show, you lived on
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: Hollywood and Highland. Yeah right, you live right there next
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: to the your Deeli factory.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I just did not never moved out of my apartment.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: Well, you were very and you were very adamant that
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: you were living this Hollywood lifestyle. You wanted to maintain
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: the Hollywood lifestyle. You didn't want to lose that.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, you know, like I did not want
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: to lose that feeling of being in Hollywood. Like even
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: though we shot our show in New York, even though
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: we shot on a you know, in sound stage, it
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: was all based in New York. I wanted to make
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: sure I kept, you know, my Hollywood grounding. So I
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: lived Hollywood and Highland right right basically right next to
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: the Ripleys.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: It's where all the stars live, so like you have
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: to be where they all are.
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: I remember the first time I felt like my life
• 22:02
  Speaker 5: wasn't the same was I called a taxi to come
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: pick me up because you didn't have ubers back then,
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: and I go outside, I'm tired, I just get in
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: this car I see outside my house.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: It's one of those cars. Here, I am thinking it's
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: the taxi. I get inside.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: We start driving, and all these people are looking at me,
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: and I realized I'm in one of those vans that
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: brings you to the stars homes.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: Oh you're on a star tour.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: And they were camped outside my house and here I
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: am just getting in the car.
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: You were in your own Star tour.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: I went on my.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Ohone start space. I thought it was just a taxi
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: and you got to use it as like a bus,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: because you know, you'd you'd get off your appearance at
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: the Jimmy Kivel show and you'd hop on one of
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: the Star tours and they'd drive you straight home because
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: that's where you lived.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: And it was crazy because I realized I had this
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: weird taxi system all to myself.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: I hate to say it, but fame sometimes you hit
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: a level of ultra fame and things get easy.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they stopped being hard, definitely right.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: I mean for a while, I personally like before this show,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: I would sort of fly in these private planes that
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: were they were quite dingy. And then once I hit
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: the show, once I got that first big paycheck. I
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: mean I got a bigger plane.
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I remember. One of the moments that I realized
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: that my life was changed forever and I had more
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: money than I ever dreamed of having was when Gordon
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: crashed my Miata off Mulholland. He said, there was some
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: sort of You've.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Been with Gordon for a long time. I have.
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: Gordon has been with me since. I mean god, I
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: think I got Gordon in I think I got Gordon
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: in two thousand and.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Four.
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: I think it was season two. I mean, Gordon has
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: been with me for uh what and the twenty years going.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: To be twenty years?
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I mean two two?
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a couple of Christmases.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: It's and this story of where you found Gordon is
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: something that I'll never forget.
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: Please tell me when I got Gordon. I remember I
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: was looking to get an assistant, and I was looking
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: around and I and I couldn't figure out which one
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: to get. I was looking around and I remember going
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: to this, uh tender Greens. You guys remember tender Greens
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: used to We used to go there when we report.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: They had those sixteen dollars salads.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: As a artist. It was tough to It was tough
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: to convince myself to get that I.
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: Was and he was there, and I remember asking, I said,
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: can I get the falaffel salad? But can the falaffel
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: be steamed instead of fried? And can which salad? Right? Right?
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: And and and the thing is, I was gonna throw
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: this salad away. I just like to see if they
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: follow my orders before I order my real meal, and
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: so I I just want to see if they know
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: what I'm doing. And so I asked, and I saw
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: him in the back.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, as a.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Struggling artist is tough, you know, because you have to
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: establish yourself as these in these restaurants, as someone to respect.
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: Of course. And so Gordon, I see him in the
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: back behind all the other riff raff, and I see
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: him steaming chickpeas. I see him there's a boiling pot
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: of chickpeas. And I see him trying his hardest, He's
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: sweating his freaking ass off, and I say to him,
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: this guy is willing to go for it. It's been
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: a really incredible experience. And that's when I realized, when
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: you have somebody to help you out with your life.
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: That's when my life has changed because my life got
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: so much easier to a point, and then Gordon started
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: getting sloppy, really wonderful.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: It's great that you guys have that sort of relationship.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's I'm curious about your guys's teams because
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: I never keep it talk. Yeah, I never keep an
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: assistant on.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think people would love to hear about the show.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: But let's talk about teams. I think I think we
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: were brought here originally just to talk about the show, but.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: I want to see. Look, I want to put feelers out.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: I want to make sure that I'm getting the best deal.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: And is that such a crime. Is that such a crime.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: This is what I want to talk about.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Let's talk teams.

• 29:20
  Speaker 2: talk about Yeah, let's get let's talk about you know,
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: kind of off offset antics. I mean, like I think
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: the fans really know. And it's been you know what
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: how many years? Ten?
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: I think we settled on four years.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: I think we probably talked about, you know, what were
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: those offset hookups? We were when the camera wasn't rolling,
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: what was happening?
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: I think a lot going on behind the scenes. I
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: mean us four we were thickest thieves. Yeah.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: We were spending so much time together, so much and
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: to the point where we sort of developed this like
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: four way enemy ship where I hated Goldie, Goldie hated you, Trent,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: Trent hated William, and then William and Turn hated me.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: And that was just for a season, you know, but
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: you can really see it.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: But then it was fun because that's like this is
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: gonna maybe be Tami. But I know the fans love
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: it because then it switched and it was all about
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: fucking you know, and it was all about.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: It was it was in the early day we.
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: Had a Fleetwood Mac situation going on.
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: Really sure, and what cast hasn't to be honest, now,
• 30:19
  Speaker 5: what casts hasn't Just like all hooked up with each
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: other at different times.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: And I thought that the writers sort of kept that.
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought that was I love when they started
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: writing that. I mean, I think what was really difficult
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: and I and I think about that a lot was
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: you know, Sarah and I were married in season we
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: were behind the scenes married to each other season three,
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: got divorced season five, and then they started writing love
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: interest kind of story between.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: Us almost right after we signed the divorce paper, right.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, Elkin was a dog and he really wanted
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: you guys to get together. He really thought that you
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: guys were perfect match.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: Well, him and Sasha were married, so we thought it
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: didn't make sense that, you know, I wasn't with Sarah.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: But I'm gonna speak frankly, Sarah, our house was toxic, right.
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: We lived a really really unhealthy lifestyle, and we were
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: on each other in a really.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: Nasty way, a nasty nasty.
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: It was a nasty, nasty experience.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: And I just want to say, now, like I have
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: permission to, I'm sorry for getting in the middle of
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: it a couple of times.
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: No, it's fine, and I don't even want to get there.
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: I'll say, like, I'll just say nasty nasty.
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: That's all we can say.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Nasty.
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'll agree with you. It was nasty, nasty
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: and nasty nasty.
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: And that led us into the season that all four
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: of us never spoke.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was really interesting. I don't know if the
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: audience noticed this, but we never actually ever had scenes together.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: We all it was kind of monologued. It would be monologue, laugh.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: And then they cut to a single of somebody else.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: Of guest stars that season tons.
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: Somebody just made a YouTube video. I think three weeks
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: ago my assistant showed me this. Uh, somebody has finally
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: put it together. They said, have you noted a season
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: eight none of the characters in the same room.
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: That was when our characters were all getting more really
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: just like fleshed out, I'd get my I have, I
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: have my nipple covers to make my nipples larger, right, right,
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: because they needed Goldie to have extraordinarily big and large nipples.
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I don't want to speak to you, but sure,
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: I remember your nipples didn't show up on camera. My
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: natural naiple, god given nipples, my god.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: Given nippleson didn't show up on camera. And it was
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: season four.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, wasn't that a demand? They were between you know,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: they were between you and Sarah Paulson, and they were like,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Sarah Paulson has like larger nipples than you, and so
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: that was like a big point of contention, like in
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: the early days.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: And it was huge for my team.
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: It was huge for every one of us, where we
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: can't change this. And then by season four they had
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: finally figured out the science to.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: Make my nipples bigger.
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: Right, Each breakthrough for huge.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Breakthrough for science for I mean, they're using that technology
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: on the moon now.
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: And I hate to be like because I'm a member
• 33:07
  Speaker 5: of a small team and I'm just a small part
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: of that, but it has changed the way we look
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: at things.
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: It's changed the way.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: Changed the way we look at Nipples for sure, for sure,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: for sure.
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: I wanted to ask you guys what your favorite episodes were.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: You guys, when you sit down and think about that
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: was month to month, right, what was your favorite app?
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: I'll go first. My favorite app of all time was
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: Pistachio Season.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: Pistachio Season, I Love.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: We had that one episode about having Pistachio Season in
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: New York because my character we, you know, and make
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: a Missouri. We have big pistachio farms, and I wanted
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: to introduce this kind of life. It's like, you guys
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: don't know what Pistachio Season is, and you guys said,
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: uh no, and then the audience laught right.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: We all said it in Unison. It was the three
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: of us.
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: Going, uh no, no.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: I'm hot.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: I'm laughing just thinking about it. Yeah, honestly, I think
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: about the one that everyone talks about, which is, of
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: course the Love Triangle episode.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: Love Triangle Season, Love Triangle Season.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: I was Love Triangle Season. That was where I would
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: bring I brought up, oh, it's Love Triangle Season back
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, and you guys were like, wait, we
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: went no, No, it was a it was a real
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: thing because I think that was all of us except
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: for Trent. We're in the love triangle for that first
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: half of the episode and then it switched completely.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: That episode, I was dealing with my brother's death in
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: the show.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Right, they wrote you out almost completely, I.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Mean just for that episode because in the show, you know,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: my brother you know, gets hit by that train a
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: couple of times and dies.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: And it was really pivoting back and forth between romp
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: sort of sex comedy and then deep sitcom, you know,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: the teachable moment and the teachable moment. The lesson that
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I learned was that sometimes people get hit by trains.
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I've never seen that on TV before. I never
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: had amazing.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: I've also never seen some of the sex stuff that
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: they did that episode on TV. Yeah, like when when
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: you were in the kite and then you were down
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: on the ground, and then you were in the middle
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: of the kite, right.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: And a lot of that had to be you know,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: it was kind of euphemism because they couldn't actually show it.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: It was just all sort of implied. But we did
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: do like a full ten minute implied sex scene, which
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: I thought was crazy.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: And you're revolutionary.
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: Offset you guys were hooking up too, we were at
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: that time. Offset Yeah, also it was a bit nasty.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I mean I think I caught you too at a
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: wonderful period in your divorce where you were sort of reuniting,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: trying to make it work, but you were thinking, what
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: if we brought in a third and what if that
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: third was someone? What if our coworkers that we see
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: each and every day those.
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: Were good days. That was the good days.
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: That was good days, and we really thought it would
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: be the glue that puts it back.
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: You know. This brings me to my favorite episode Funeral
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: season where I remember it was that that episode where
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: my character needed to go to uh, I think fifteen
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: funerals in one day because his entire AA group died
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: at once the AA group was bombed or something like that.
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: And you brought bagels, I remember, or we made the
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: bag You.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: Had to bring the bagels to every funeral because you
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: made a lot of promises, and.
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we had to close early and then we had Yeah,
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: I had to bring a play to bagels to fifteen
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: different funerals, and I had you guys dressing up as me,
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: and I remember it was there was one scene where
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: I was standing in an elevator surrounded by you guys
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: in your dressed exactly like me. And I remember they
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: played the can laughter for three four minutes after we
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: you know, somebody came in and then they said, hey,
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: table for Connor and then we all said, uh, that's me,
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: that's me, that's me. Yeah, that's me. Yeah, we all
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: said that at the scene.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: That was another thing on all the T shirts that.
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: My favorite episode, I'd have to say was Slippery Locks season.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: Slippery Locks Season.
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: I mean, it was just so silly at a nasty
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: time in my life.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: We had so many slippery lots.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: I mean it was paying homage to that I Love
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: Lucy episode of the Chocolate Factory.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't keep up, but it's just a bunch
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: of salmon los.
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 37:33
  Speaker 5: And that was when the the tag was I woke
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: up as a big fish.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a big fish with huge.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: Nipples and stilettos.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: You were so hot ash Oh it got I think
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: it got me going.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: I think I got worried.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: I think it got me going.
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: I got worried when we got this scene and it
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: was like, oh, they all have so much locks that
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: Goldie turns into a locks, right, And I remember being
• 37:58
  Speaker 5: like will that fish hot?
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: I was worried, right.
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: I think what's crazy about working on a sitcom is
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: we all have our thing, right, and it's weird, especially
• 38:09
  Speaker 5: when you do.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: Other shows or other movies.
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: It's like you get really involved with playing characters with
• 38:15
  Speaker 5: that thing, you know what I mean, Like it's yeah.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: And I mean speaking to your career after this, I
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: mean just a stark departure from Goldie. You sort of
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: started playing these these matronly old characters like you were
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: I believe thirty five at the time or so, and
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: you'd switch to grandpa roles almost immediately.
• 38:36
  Speaker 5: Yes, I started doing nurses, older nurses, caregivers.
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: I love Mother Teresa's last year, that movie you.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: Did, and congratulations on your oscar by the way, by
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: the way, by the way.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: No, I mean I did my thing, which was our thing,
• 38:52
  Speaker 5: and I did my Goldie thing, which was a hot,
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: hot woman. And then at some point when the show ended,
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: it was just like everything just flow flew off of me,
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: and I was like, suddenly, she's gone.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: Right because they took your nipples away.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: Yes, because yeah they were.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: It was not rental.
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: They didn't let you keep them.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: No, No, And I didn't want them. I didn't want them.
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: Here's a question that I think is a great one
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: to wrap up on because I am getting the signal
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: from Gordon and Gordon, if you wave that fingerrabb me
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: one more time, I'll cut it off on the way home.
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: But one thing that I always get on Twitter, people
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: are messaging me all the time, what do you think
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: your characters for month to month are doing? Now?
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: That's great?
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: I think Connor. I think Connor works at a rehab center,
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: I think, and I hope you know, I guess I
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: could see what Elkin is doing, which is nothing because
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: he's fucking dead.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: But and rest in peace, by the way, right right.
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: Rest in peace to Elkin. You live such a struggle
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: of a life and we miss you every day.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Hey, I miss you too, Elkin.
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: Okay, we're all saying we miss it. You don't have
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: to single out that you specifically miss well. I'm just
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: saying that we can all say that we missed it. Man.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: Okay, one, two, three?
• 40:11

• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Oh? Sandy, you know, I think she took over the
• 40:18

• 40:21
  Speaker 3: That's a surfer girl at heart. Baby.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she she's I think she's you know, she's spreading
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: locks on bagels. She's spreading joy. That's what That's what
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: Sandy always did. And she because you know, the manager
• 40:32

• 41:08
  Speaker 1: stopped airing, and so I.
• 41:12

• 41:16
  Speaker 4: Do you guys remember that? You guys remember that our
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: director Jimmy gild cut and PLoP on the ground.
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: Right, It was so but we were just so we
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: were bowing. We just kept going on with it. None
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: of us even realized what it was.
• 41:31
  Speaker 5: Really because I remember the plot, we couldn't tell if
• 41:34
  Speaker 5: it was a body or one of my nipples that fell.
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because both fell basically PLoP PLoP, like what's going on.
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: We were so dense and the boards were so hollow
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: on that sound stage. Every time one of your nipples
• 41:46
  Speaker 4: fell off, it felt like a body was dropping to
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: the ground.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: Earthquake. I also, I have a little bit of a confession.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: I did notice that Mariah Carey was dead. But you know,
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: we were all having such a good time and the
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: show was such a special memory for everyone.
• 42:04
  Speaker 4: But I thought, you know.
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: Let's put a pin in this so light Russia.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: You know, yeah, what is pointing it out? Going to
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: make her come back to life? No, so I'm going
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: to honor her memory by continuing to bow.
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: You know something funny, I something funny. I walked by
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: Mariah Carey's grave the other day and and you know,
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: at Forest Lawn you can drive by on the street
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: and I saw a bunch of deer eating the flowers
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: off of her grave, and I thought that was a
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: beautiful moment.
• 42:34

• 42:53
  Speaker 3: that hot people live shorter lots.
