• 5:21
  Speaker 2: lock it up, and we were like, so, basically, lock

  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you were at the Chick California Chicken Cafe
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: when the President went into the Potomac, right.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: But that's how long of it.
• 6:14
  Speaker 7: It was as a mission to get him back, because
• 6:17
  Speaker 7: I was there when he technically fell in, yeah, and
• 6:20
  Speaker 7: come back.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: You were, Yeah.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: And as soon as he came too, because he was unconscious.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: As soon as he came too, we said what do
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: you need? He said, salad, And you were there with
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: a salad.
• 6:32
  Speaker 7: And you know how those Postmates has those like those
• 6:37
  Speaker 7: big boxes that you put a lot of food into,
• 6:39
  Speaker 7: say to make it warm big. Yeah, that's what we
• 6:42
  Speaker 7: use as a flotation device.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: Because I was.
• 6:44
  Speaker 7: Walking up with a bunch of them and you guys
• 6:46
  Speaker 7: were like were drowning.
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: Your arm was broken.
• 6:51
  Speaker 7: And that's when I threw in these life vests, which
• 6:55
  Speaker 7: were these Postmate salad boxes.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: And you got your purple heart. Because as we're feeding
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Biden's salady vision.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: The listeners in here, Sorry, it would get pretty emotional,
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: but I.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Remember, I remember you yelling went viral.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and that might be why we're here. I don't know.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: There's a lot of reasons. But I was giving him
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: a cheery tomato because those are rich in nutrients, and
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: my god, is those guys Joe Biden's got some chompers.
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah for sure, and he locks in like a pit bull.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Well, it's hard to tell, you know, if you're Joe Biden,
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: you've just fell into the potomac, you're eighty thousand years old.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: You can't really tell if someone's finger is a carrot,
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: like a yummy carrot from a cop salad, or if
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: it's the hand of someone trying to help you.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: It's like, what's my day job as the president?
• 7:47
  Speaker 7: Why am I consulting on a movie? You know, It's
• 7:49
  Speaker 7: like there's a lot of questions there.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: So yeah, but you know, let's get back into it.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: You know, I don't think we're called in here to
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: talk about us rescuing Joe Biden.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: About just to kind of like book and what I
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, last man means when you're calling for lunch,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: you don't actually go to lunch until the last person
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: who has been working on the set is at lunch.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: So last man, you know, if you say lunch is
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: at one thirty, there's one guy that's working on the
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: cords or whatever. And then if he's done at one forty,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that's last man for lunch, and then that means lunch
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: is an hour after that. So I'm always usually the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: last man because I'm always having some shit to do
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: in the back or some shit and yeah, well it's well.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: I remember the day that Joe fell. We didn't call
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: last man out of respect. It was like a flat.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: Half mask because Joe was the last man because he was,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: you know, in the.
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: He did go to lunch last that day for sure.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Well, and there was no need to call last man
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: because production halted right like, no one was working because all.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: The salads were in the river.
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: This is an industry secret.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: When the president falls in the river, you do have
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: to halt production at least for a little while.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: That's an industry secret.
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: That's an industry secret.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: I have a question for you guys. I mean, so
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: I I'm in the office all day. A lot of
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: people like, there's this common misconception that I don't really
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: do anything.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: Oh my god, and I just think that don't say
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: that to you.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: I just think that's so fake because I'm constantly doing
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: things up there.
• 9:27
  Speaker 7: You're kidding every night at like eleven PM when that
• 9:30
  Speaker 7: call she comes out and it's a freaking essay long.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: I'm like, that's Cynthia right there. She did that the
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: whole thing.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: And you personalize Do you personalize those call sheets? You
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: you always write your own kind of fun sassy weather report.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, And I learned details about each person and
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: so I you know, I do write them individually. This
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: is not a CC or a BCC. This is everybody
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: gets hey, hope your kids soccer practice went okay.
• 9:59
  Speaker 6: By the way, your call is six a m.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: And you handwrite him too, and you take pictures of
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: him and you send him as I think it's much more.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: I think it's much nicer that way. I used to
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: mail the call sheets.
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: But disaster because nobody could get there on time.
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: Nobody got there in time. But but I don't think
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: it could work.
• 10:17
  Speaker 7: When production came back up from being halted, the first
• 10:21
  Speaker 7: call sheet we had back. The quote you put in
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: there was when one man falls down, we all do yeah.

• 20:49
  Speaker 2: Those close sets. That's crazy because somehow did always gets
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: in there.

  Speaker 1: Something you don't know about a celebrity. Uh, Jason, Oh,
• 21:00

  Speaker 5: just say, I.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Need a urinal. It's my writer, I need I need
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: a star wagon with a urinal, which is difficult because
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: a lot of those star wagons are the same and
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: we have to find we'd have to rent a specific
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: one and you'd take big old dumps in it.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: And it was you find that out though, because you're
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: usually not let into you.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Know, I'm usually not in base camp. No, I'm usually
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: not by the by the star wagons. I was the
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: last one. Nobody else would do it because everybody else
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: on that set. That was a little indie picture.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: What was it called?
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: It was called Nuts for saleh and it was I
• 21:46

• 21:56
  Speaker 1: then the nut farm catches on fire at.
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: The end and he has to fight the guy who

  Speaker 1: small set. It was. It was a one point five
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: mil movie. And I don't know if you guys like

  Speaker 1: to work indie films versus a big budget We've done
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: it all, and I've done it all with you guys. Yes,
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: it's it's scrappier, scrappier on the lower level. You know,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: everyone's pitching in and so for me, I'm taking a
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: shovel and I'm taking that ship out of the urinals.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: That's fantastic. Kisses to me.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: I hope to get one, but I imagine they're like butterflies.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: And I guess John Krasinski did pull a knife on
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: me one time. Really, Yes, that was insane. We're you

  Speaker 1: I just texted him back. Yeah.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: So yeah, John Kristincy pulled a knife on me. We
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: were playing craps. Usually we've have a little bit of
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: a dice gamer or a craps game going on in
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: the back, and he kind of stumbled upon me and
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: the other pas because I'm in camera. So we you know,
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: we have our own group a little boys.
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: And girls running around there.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: You guys don't take a break for nothing.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: No, no, we don't. I mean, camera is non stop
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: because what's always moving the camera.
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: You know, it's always moving as well. California and Chicken Cafe.
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they move like locations all the time.
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: They're a food truck.
• 23:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean yeah, Sometimes I'm like, do I belong
• 23:51
  Speaker 7: to production or California Chicken Cafe?
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Wait, you gotta tell that story where you had to
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: get the food truck to pull over on the side
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: of the road to finish or Yes, that was the
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: crazy shit I.
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: Ever saw, the craziest story I've ever heard.
• 24:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so I think this was during the house we built. Yeah,
• 24:09
  Speaker 7: every single day I was at CCC, And it makes.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Sense because like, why would there be a California Chicken
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: cafe in the middle of Washington, d C.
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: It's about like a local chain, you.
• 24:17
  Speaker 7: Know, it's it's an LA based salad place. So we
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: we were doing our normal thing where we were driving
• 24:28
  Speaker 7: to drop everything off, and I had realized we were
• 24:33
  Speaker 7: two Caesar wraps down. No, And what people don't realize
• 24:38
  Speaker 7: is when you get to set and it's lunch, I
• 24:40
  Speaker 7: gotta get that ship there the fastest I can and
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: nothing's gonna get in my way. It's like my one time.
• 24:47
  Speaker 7: I mean, after once we get into lunch, I like,
• 24:49
  Speaker 7: I'm pretty much I just like smoke.
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: Blunt and I'm done.
• 24:52
  Speaker 7: Even though I'm on set, I'm doing shit and I'll
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: never stop. But I'm just like, it's my frickin' moment.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: And if we can always count on you beca because
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: you know, some of the other girls in the office
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: like start fainting. There are a couple of days you
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: weren't there and lunch wasn't totally on time, and you know,
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: the girls just start, they start fanning themselves, and that's
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: when you know that things are.
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: About to go south.
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: I could, but.
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: You're always on it.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: I remember that time when all those girls started fainting.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: It was like feathers hitting the ground.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: The problem when the office PA's faint is you can't
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: really hear them when they hit the ground.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: It sounded like it was drizzling very lightly.
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but it was. It was girls going down.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: It was girls going down, but they kind of make
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: this this sort of sound, and you know they're about
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: to go because they go, oh.
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's the trigger. I can't even hear that.
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: Because then you like go scoop them up.
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, these girls have two low blood sugar.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: You should have seen. You should have seen when the
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: grips fainted though, Oh gosh, that was crazy.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: They couldn't have seen it because your ears bursted and
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: your eyes blacked out.
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: Is that what that earthquake was? Yeah?
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: I remember, Uh. Stumpy was like, I'm hungry. Next thing
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: I know, I'm slammed against a wall. I wake up.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: It's been four hours later.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: And that was when the set dominode, right the one
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: you the Stumpy hit you, which hit another Grip who
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: passed out, hitting a wall of the set, tearing down
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: what we had established as Washington, and our.
• 26:16
  Speaker 7: Set medic Carmen was on top of you trying to
• 26:20
  Speaker 7: bring you back.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: That's what she says she was trying to flirt with
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: me always, and I hate it. And I was like, Carmen, please,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: I'm working like it's like Carmen was so hot for me,
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: and it's so hard when someone's hot for me because
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: this is never going to happen the other way.
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: You just hate it anyway. But the thing about lunch is.
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: Production and the ad can like if they want to
• 26:41
  Speaker 7: finish something before lunch, they can ask for grace and
• 26:43
  Speaker 7: call grace. But every once in a while, if lunch
• 26:47
  Speaker 7: isn't there on time, we have to call grace because
• 26:50
  Speaker 7: of me.
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: And that is heavy.
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: The worst feeling in the world because you have grips
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: that like throw PA's at the wall like it is
• 26:59
  Speaker 7: not a good thing when it's my fault. So I
• 27:03
  Speaker 7: made this woman who was driving the CCC truck, I
• 27:06
  Speaker 7: said pull the.
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: Fuck over, and I said we gotta finish these wraps now,
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: get in the back.
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: And then we did them all and we wrapped them
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: and we were pulled over on the side of the street.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I heard you stopped her by doing that thing
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: cops do, or they swerved through all the lakes traffic.
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, I always wanted to do that, and because
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: those cops they go so slow and it's so graceful.
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: It's like a ballet dance on the four or five
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: exactly what I did.
• 27:34
  Speaker 7: And she got we got all those wraps and we
• 27:37
  Speaker 7: didn't have to call grace.
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: So thank god. It's so great.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: What a great moment, What a great moment. I guess
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: here's my question, because like as PA's, you know, we
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: get bullied a lot, We get like trampled on a lot,
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: Like at least my experience is like trampled on. But
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: I kind of want to talk about the future, like
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: there's a reason why we're all here, and it's not
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: just because all of their dads are very like successful people.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Oh lucky in some way your dad is that is
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: it might be the richest one out of all of us.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: You know, you are literal royalty, Uh huh royalty.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, yeah, I want to be the king
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: of Shit Mountain. Yeah. Right.
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: Do you know what it's like to have Billy Crystal
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: as your dad?
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: What's it like? I don't want to talk about it, okay.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: I just think it's very nice that our dads are
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: very successful and we're humble enough to not promote.
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: Us up from here.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: They really did put us all at the bottom level,
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: and we've been here for a while.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, this is actually incredibly great parenting
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: moves on all of their parts.
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that they're raising very well balanced children.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: Because I keep.
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: Saying, you know, it's been ten years. Can you kind
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: of help me out?
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: Well, what's your goal? Where do you want to end up?
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: Get a petite blonde in the trailer for ten years.
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: And I'm getting shorter and blonder by the day.
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: I noticed that. I didn't want to bring it up
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: because it's sounded so mean.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: Because I'm working really hard and I really care about
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: my job. But as I'm going and as I'm doing this,
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: like I I could you know. I like movies, I
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: like going to them, but I think I really just
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: want to make popcorn.
• 29:08
  Speaker 6: I think I want to be like a popcorn chef.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: Wait, do you love Popcornopolis?
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: I love Popcornopolis. That's like my movies. That's like my
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: Disneyland that store. Yeah, Popcornopolis is like, Okay, I'm going
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: to Universal Studios.
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: Okay, I'm getting on the big ride.
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: Every time I open up one of those big tubes
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: of popcornopolis.
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: I'm like, yummy, heaven.
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: So you just love making popcorn? Is that that's great? Yeah?
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: I think I've never really tried, but I think there's
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: a way to make like a new kind of popcorn.
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: That's why the trailer always smells like popcorn.
• 29:46
  Speaker 6: Because I'm doing it. On the side, I'm practicing.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: New kind of popcorn. Are you thinking flavors or type
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: of thing?
• 29:52
  Speaker 6: I'm talking about the fundamental corn itself.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: What does that mean?
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: You're trying to find it? You're trying to find an alternate.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: I find an alternate corn. I'm trying to find I'm
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: trying to find a bigger one. Okay, primarily, like, because
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: popcorn is very small and pretty much you can change
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: the flavor whenever you want.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Are you Are you finding different things and trying to
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: pop them?
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so you're not. You're doing popcorn that isn't corn,
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: So you're just popping things.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: So okay, So I've tried onions, I've tried bell peppers.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, those they'll they'll blow up, they won't pop like,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: they won't flip Like.
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: That's what I'm discovering. But I don't think i'm dial
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: close what's the test.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: What's the test in the microwave?
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: Yes, but well, no, I have a popcorn maker because
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: I'm a professional.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: So I have one of those like popcorn makers that
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: go on the stove and they spin around, and so
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: I would put the onion in there. Sometimes I chop
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: it up a little finer. I've I've experimented with different size.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: You're trying to chop up an onion and then hopefully
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: make those pieces of the onion pop.
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: Yes, then hopefully it becomes popcorn.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: And you know, Nicholas Fleming discovered penicillin by accident.
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: Don't don't compare this, And so I'm.
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: Thinking if I just kind of keep accidentally on purpose
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: putting things in the popcorn maker, eventually I'll find any
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: kind of popcorn.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: What's the closest you've got you think?
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: Oh, I got really close with a jerky.
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: I know exactly what fucking day you're talking about, because I.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: Had to clean a huge jerky tornado under your trailer.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I feel bad because none of the other
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: office pas are strong enough to hold a paper towel,
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: and so we always have to call in someone from set.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you always call me first because I'm the biggest,
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: strongest PA. Yeah, but then I always defer it because
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I'm like, no, I am literally holding a jib up
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: that has broken. Like, I'm like, I'm literally doing you.
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: Trying to be a building?
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: You are such a foundation of the set itself, you
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: have noticed.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: I feel good about that. You know. It almost feels
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: like the kind of thing where you know, a shipwreck,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: you know, a ship wrecks in the and then barnacles
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: kind of build on top of it. I feel like
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: I've been on that set so long, I'm just become it,
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: and the set has absorbed me, and I'm just part
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: of the set.
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: Well, did know?
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: What do you are?
• 32:09
  Speaker 7: I know you love cinematography, Yeah, yeah, and you also
• 32:14
  Speaker 7: love directing.
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, where do you see?
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: I also love acting. I've seen a lot of you.
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: I feel like you can in any department.
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: Films blow my mind. They're so avant garde.
• 32:24
  Speaker 7: That short film about you learning what it's like to
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: write with your left hand.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a true story. That was completely true.
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: You're telling me that was based on real life.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: So I'm not shitting you at one ounce. I'm I'm
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: telling you for real. I thought it would be interesting
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: if I wrote with my other hand and I said,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: I need to start filming this, and I found a
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: narrative in the middle of it. You know, a guy
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: who's who's trying to change his life. Okay, I'll do
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: one small thing. I'll start righty with my left hand,
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: and then what happens, you know, he he learned and
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: then he's kind of better at it.
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: It's so satisfying at the end of the film.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Where I write that letter and you see the the
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: cursive right, and that's my real cursive. Like, thank you
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: guys for watching that. I mean, yeah, I want to
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: do that kind of stuff. I want to do creator,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: I want to direct, I want to write, you know,
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: I want to be I want to be the next
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, Martin Scorsese. I want to
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: work there. I want to get there. I've been here
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: this long. Like I do feel like I'm losing the
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: path a little bit because I'm so committed to set
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: and sometimes.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: They don't opposite.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Dude, Yeah, we could help you make your next film.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, all of us are really good pas I'll
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: be sick different.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: It just gets fucking crazy because I feel like we're
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: so close to what we want to do, but it's
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: not what we're doing. Yeah, you guys know what I mean.
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: Physically there, Yeah, we're physically there.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: I'm in the room, but I'm the chair, you know
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: what I mean for sure? And have been the chair,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: and I've been the chair. I was a chair on
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: knives Out.
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: Because the knights are falling out, you have to kind
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: of stand in the back. I was.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: I was the Christopher Plumber big main chair. You guys
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: remember that chair so too.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: But I was at CPK the whole time.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they were CPK production. Yeah. I also want
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: to bring up you work so many productions that don't
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: get catering. They just make you go get lunch.
• 34:24
  Speaker 5: And these are really really expensive places.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: These are huge movies, and I think it's so fucking rude.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: I think it's so fucking rude for you to get
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: lunch for that many people.
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: Let's address the elephant in the room.
• 34:36
  Speaker 7: You're like, hey, Mirando, why you had all these restaurants,
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: these lunch restaurants when usual productions get catering. It's a
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: new fat that's happening in Hollywood right now.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: And it needs to stop.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: It's like it's like a farm to table, but it's
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: a restaurant to set and because they think it's local
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: or fresher or supporting people, you're kind.
• 35:00
  Speaker 6: Of just supporting, you know, a national pizza chain.
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: And it's just like we could support these caterers, like
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: I don't, you're just sending me out. I know every
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: single lunch spot in La what their menu has, and
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: I know it by heart. So it's it's it's stupid,
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: but it has made me realize.
• 35:19
  Speaker 7: I I.
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: Want to open my own restaurant one day.
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: Wow, do you.
• 35:26
  Speaker 6: Feel like you are more of a restaurant worker or a.
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: PA No, I would say, I would say, I'm right
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: in the middle. And that's what I want to do.
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: I want to. I want to I want to build
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: the first restaurant.
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: Movie.
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: Okay, And what's that it's I think, yeah, right, it's
• 35:43
  Speaker 8: where a movie meets a restaurant, and I think it's
• 35:48
  Speaker 8: combining two things that we interact with every So.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: Is it like you're at a restaurant and you're watching
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: a movie or you're out.
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: Of you're in the movie where a movie is it?
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: Exactly?
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Is it a planet Hollywood?
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: Exactly?
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: Okay? So you want to you want to restart playing
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: at Hollywood exactly.
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: That's awesome.
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: I just I want to.
• 36:13
  Speaker 7: I don't know, it's just I'm interested in it. I'm
• 36:16
  Speaker 7: interested to see where the rock means the road.
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's beautiful.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: What about you, Trick?
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: I always, always, always have wanted to be a dancer,
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: and I just kind of.
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: Lost my path along. You don't want to be a dancer,
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: I really do you need?
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: Have you ever asked to pick Ditto's dad's brain.
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: I've tried, and they don't speak to each other.
• 36:39
  Speaker 7: Okay, but dude, it's actually crazy, and this is what
• 36:42
  Speaker 7: happens in Hollywood.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: It starts with this stuff.
• 36:44
  Speaker 7: There is a reason why you're on set with Diddo
• 36:47
  Speaker 7: the Sun of the River Dance Gods.
• 36:50
  Speaker 6: Exactly.
• 36:50
  Speaker 7: You need to ask your dad and ask him if
• 36:55
  Speaker 7: Trick can pick his brain.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because I feel like there's a lot in comment
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: but between breakdancing and river dancing, and I'm trying to
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: be become a breakdancer like a professional, like I love
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: the jabawakeis.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: You don't want that life? Man? I'm telling you that
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: shit is fucked. What how how all day people just
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: use you for your body? All day? People just want
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: your body. People are just your body is your tool. No,
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: our body is our prison.
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: Were you like really good at dancing? Were you like
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: really good?
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: Is that why you always want to be an animate
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: objects like a chair on set and don't want to move?
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Is that all the clicking that we hear in the background?
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: What do you almost like you're river tap dancing?
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: That's why I'm last man sometimes, Okay, because when everyone
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: else is out, I said, I'm gonna go fix these
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: wires and I'm freaking tap tap tapping up into catwalk.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: Oh but I don't want that. No, guys, I can't
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: do it. I can't do that because my body sucks
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: and it's disgusting and I don't want to put it
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: on stage and like other people watch it, that is
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: a disservice.
• 37:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I guess you're right. I shouldn't do that either.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: Thanks. So what's your new goal?
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: I think my new goal is to become an art
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: art deck person, like do do the art fir scenes.
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: Wow, I really feel like I deflated you.
• 38:10
  Speaker 7: That you know what I'm watching you change your goal
• 38:13
  Speaker 7: makes me want to change mine.
• 38:15
  Speaker 5: Go ahead.
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: To be honest, I never really understood my goal. I
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: didn't really understood what that meant. I just was in
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: inspired by it. I want to be a gang boss
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: one day.
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: WHOA, that's pretty easy.
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: Okay, Can I change my goal?
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 38:26
  Speaker 6: I want to do pickles.
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: How there's more things to pickle.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: Pickle.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: This is actually like a career path that can happen.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: But I want to pickle like hamburgers. I want to
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: pickle like hot dogs. I want to pickle like full meals.
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: Because normally you pickle one object and then you put
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: it in the meal. But what if you pickled the
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: entire thing? What if you pickled a big turkey dinner.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't I wouldn't do that.
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: It sounds awful.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: No, no, I pickled turkey sounds awful, especially if it's
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: with all the mashed potato and the gravy. It just
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: sounds it just sounds like, don't pickle meat.
• 39:14
  Speaker 5: You don't pickle.
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: Meat, but anything.
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: I mean, sure, I don't eat meat because I only
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: eat iceberg, lettuce, So all these foods I'm just guessing at.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: But can't I just I would honestly want to make
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: a short film of watching you popcorn and onion, which
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I can't stop thinking about. It.
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm thinking about it.
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: You should follow that.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's do it.
• 39:34
  Speaker 6: Let's do it.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: If you're okay with doing popcorn, absolutely okay with that,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: let's talk about it.

• 39:42
  Speaker 5: Oh okay, Wow, that's okay.

  Speaker 1: Look, I don't want to shut down anyone's goals. I
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: feel like I came hot. I'm coming in with my
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: own ship. I'm this bag of garbage.
• 39:50

  Speaker 4: I know, but I love you to fucking death.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: No, man, you're.
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: Awful on set though.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: To talk to you, it's like talking to a freak
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: and mop, you know, always wet and down. You know.
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: But I know you so.
• 40:05
