I don't even want to talk about anything else. - I was thinking that we were probably one of the earliest podcasters that Jake Shane has done. - We were. - I remember. - It's not his search. - We were saying that, like I think it's still titled unless we changed it, like we didn't even write his name on the episode. - Yeah, that's hilarious. - But also, I remember C&J Shane at the Lemons Foundation party that the lotners, the party that they had in LA. And he told me, you know, I'm very nervous. I'm starting a podcast. Like I'm launching a podcast. It's called Therapist. I don't know how. And I'm like, oh, you're gonna crush it. We're gonna, like, it's just crazy. - And he obviously has. - It's just crazy to look at everything. And wow, I mean, gosh, though, I've been through some looks. I mean, we didn't have many. - We all have. - We all have many clips of my black hair with blonde stripes. But man, there was a time. - There was a time. And you know what? I kind of forgot what Chris Briny wore when he came on this show. I'm really like, I'm like remembering that again. - Yeah. - When he popped up, I was like, whoa. - Yeah. - Kind of forgot about that outfit. - Yeah, it was something. It's just so funny looking. I mean, like, we were literal babies. - Yeah, yeah. - And my hair was falling out of my head at one point. Like, not good, not good at all, you know, been through some times. - It bleached in your hair so much. - Yeah.
You know, miserable, but now, but just so different factors. Yeah, so many different like behind the scene stories too that are so funny. And we were actually talking about before this episode. I was like, should we try to think of some stories that we've never told on the podcast, but it's so hard to kind of go back in your brain and be like, this story we should tell or that story we should tell every year, I think about. And I know like you had them and you lost them. But every year, I'm like, God, I really should be journaling because my memory is so bad. It's so annoying. And then I'm like, and I, and I have to watch things to be reminded of things. I'm like, oh my God. Yeah. But I need to, like I wish I wrote everything down, like how I was feeling in that time. I guess there's no time like the present to start. Right. Exactly. I had a journal when I first started at bar school. And oh my gosh, the stories in there were probably even before we started the podcast. And then I kept it for a while. And then when we moved offices, we moved offices in 2019, I lost it or the journal. I then started a new journal in 2023 that I still have. Yeah. And I wrote some feelings down about some things, which are so funny looking back on. I'm like, I wrote about some guests, like, oh, you're thirsty. Yeah. Yeah, just go ahead. I wrote about some guests in the journal, like, yeah, I was nervous for this guest to come on today and rightfully so, because they sucked, like that's like something I wrote in my journal in 2023 and it's like not that long ago, not long ago at all. Like it was literally like, uh, yeah, I was nervous and, you know what, I had every reason to be because they weren't great. So, but I honestly stopped shortly after that. But we have so many. Yeah. What a fun video. I for a second, I really got, I was like, I'm James Morrison about to pop up. I thought so too. I really thought James Morrison was about to pop up and I, you know, I'm not going to harp on the Jonas Bellers, but whatever. Yeah. Yeah. The thing that hurt with the Jonas Brothers most if we're just talking about it is that it was a look at how much he left them. Nothing. Oh, thanks. Noah for leaving Sarah. We got two bottles. We got another bottle. Don't worry. Uh, no, but that the Jonas Brothers, like, for a while, it was like, they're sending it. Like, it was like, yes. And then it was just, oh, I see, I didn't need, I didn't need to know that. You know, I would. Okay. Okay. Knowing that. I prefer that, you know, yeah, but what's worse, it's like, oh, they said yes and they just never got around to it or like they were like, nah, you know, they have been on vacation for quite some time. So yeah. But it's like one of those times they sat down to record, hey, Jonas, they've been recording a lot lately. It doesn't matter. I'm going to put it up there. You know how you guys can make it up to us? A little shatter in the pot. Yeah. Hey, Jonas, you can say, hey, you know what? Tricks in the office just celebrate their 1,000 episodes, proud of them, proud of them. And then I'll be good, but it doesn't matter because no, no, no. The whole video one who did make a video was incredible. That was amazing. Truly. And I'm going to say it again. Thank you so much, everybody that sent one in because you like, we are on the other side of that sometimes too, when someone's like, hey, can you send this video and you do forget often. You do, yeah. So, and it's no, like, it's not anything on the person. It's just sometimes you do forget. So it means extra to us to see the people who did take the time to do it. Yes. You know, it really, really does. It's very meaningful. And once again, thank you to our listeners who are the reason we were able to do a thousand episodes. Seriously. Because if you don't listen to the show, then the show ends. And that is not the case. We're going to keep going. Yeah. Like everyone said, a thousand more. Thanks to everyone that's listened to 3 episodes, 100 episodes, 500 episodes, the ones that have listened to a thousand. It's with every single episode we love you and also after I said, I guess I thought Josh Jimelle was popping up for sure. Yeah. And honestly, I'm a little, I really would have turned red. And I'm really off. That would have been awesome. Imagine he was like, congrats on this very special number. Yeah. I would have done that. I would have ran out of room. I would have literally scurryed out of here. Uh, but so. One thousand episodes is so special. It's so special to me. I can't. Ah. God. Too many good times. But even off, like not even with the guest or the show itself, we've had so many funny stories like off camera that we just haven't told. But not even really purposely, it's just like, you're like, I will tell a story another time. And then you just never really got to it. And then it's like, all right, should we tell this random story? There are stories we've told at live shows that we haven't told on the podcast. Yeah. So by tickets. Yeah. So by tickets is a live show. I don't know who you're going to hear. You really though. See, we really do tell some secret stories at that show, which is always funny, like some Singapore stuff. But, you know, if you were at the live show, you saw, it's an elite group. It is. And you can come join us this fall. I imagine we were like, and there is our, we literally are the Jonas Brothers. And here's our next tour announcement. Yeah. And we're releasing a book. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We're actually to include stories that people don't know. Oh, man. Yeah. Oh, man. I'd write a bestseller. I fucking would. Oh, my God. Sometimes I dream about it. I literally toss and turn and dream about telling stories that people get to that point. I could maybe where I just tell stories that I fucking wish people knew they, and they don't. And then I just expose every, no, that's not, that's not it. I sometimes I think, wow, if only people knew this story, the only people knew that story. I'd be good in a book. Yeah. But, you know, we're not like that. Well, what are your favorite three moments from the show as a whole? Yeah, just as a whole. God, I can't. I'm so hard. I remember. But that is, like, I would say Fiji is like in my top three, but that's obviously not just there are obvious ones, right, like Fiji and Jonas Khan and, you know, the humongous guests that we've had, it's so hard to, yeah, differentiate people's choice. Some of my favorite moments are the ones that's pre-posh out, you know? Yeah. Yeah. I think you know the show. Age video. The age video. Never gets old. Yeah. Kate Hudson. Kate Hudson. Holy. I'm trying to think, I, it's hard to pinpoint three. You're very much school. And I will also say, even more, just not even like guests around it, you know, I will also say each year, I say to myself, how will we top the last year? I do this every single year. I get nervous for the year. And then it somehow tops the year before. Yeah. And it's amazing. And I hope that we continue on that path because that's the only thing you could wish and hope for when you are doing this job is to always be better than the year prior. But like we ended the year on an amazing note. We come back the first thing we do or one of the first things we do is Dylan O'Brien and Rachel McGatkins. Yeah. And then I go, oh my god, this is going to be a great year. Yeah. And yeah, you know what I mean? It's just those moments where you never know what you're going to get and you get worried. Like, oh no, what if people don't want to come on our show anymore and look at all these amazing shows that people do that are, you know, blasting off and becoming huge. But every year, it only gets better in my opinion. So I'm happy to keep on that path. We love our beautiful community that we have. We do. We really do. We have the best. Always when we meet you guys, we're always like we have the best listeners, always so supportive. Still blue coffees. New can lattes are here, crafted with 100% Colombian coffee.

We love you guys. You guys are amazing. The best. We couldn't do everything that we do without you guys and all of your hard work. And even Noah. Noah. Noah really. No, no. He fished together. Noah. This shows literally nothing without Noah. Yes. He has been here from the beginning. He's worked his ass off. He has been available 24/7. 24/7. And as always, it look like I said for his dating profile, dare I say very reliable. Extremely reliable. He's always been there, always willing to get you done, always willing to work late, always willing to make sure he's putting out the best possible products he can. And the show's only excelled because of how much work he puts into it. Absolutely. Thanks guys. And I mean that. Wow. You guys have been pretty good too. Thanks. Thanks. I appreciate it. I mean, for those who don't know, Noah was the first, we've been together since the beginning. Yeah. First video for them. For those videos of us like sitting in the merch closet, like Noah was behind the camera. Yeah. He was the one filming and editing and he is a perfectionist in the best way. He is the best of the best. He's the best producer in this place by far. And I don't care if anybody else gets mad at me for saying that. There is nobody at Barcelona as a producer like Noah. Everyone's fantastic, but he is the best and we're happy that we have him. We have that cream. Yes. And our whole team is.
I would put our team up against anybody and say we have the best team in the business because the amount of times we've been to meetings and they got to show people the ropes. Yeah. Or outside people are so shocked like I've done other podcasts where they're like your team is just a monster. Absolutely. Like how do you turn, you get your episodes out so quick, you do things so quickly, you're so on top of your social. I'm like I'm like literally there's a matty runs arts like there's one person like it is there. And it's always so impressed and like in shock of how they do that. So I think it's always nice to hear that and you all work so well together as well. Like yeah. That's why I'm excited for this trip we're going on tomorrow because we can the Palm Springs brings it. Just a way. What's funny is Fran is arriving a little bit later than the rest of the team. And well not to not to completely change the subject, but I got I got dumped by my dog one. Yeah, it's bullshit. I'm not quite sure what to do about it. Summer's tough. I haven't been in the city that much. That's fair. Olive's been out on Long Island and you know, my schedule hasn't been very consistent. I understand you know, you need consistency dog walker. But we either there's been hasn't been a couple of weeks in noncommunication. Normally they would check in and be like what's your schedule like this week and we would give it to them. The whole thing. It's been a couple of weeks. We haven't heard anything. No, Texas them a few days ago traveling. We're back in the city. I know we haven't been around for a while and it's just like all booked up. Sorry. Is a damn. I've been dumped and it sucks because they were so great and so reliable. And I trusted them. And it's you know, it's your it's your dog that you love so much and you want them to be with someone you trust and like they're also in your home in and out of your home, you know. And now I got how I got to like I got a stranger got a fucking star from square one again. Yeah. That's what we feel bad for you. And that is what led me to move my that led me to move my fly back to get to the Airbnb. We're going to be. I don't know. I probably that's just going to be happening. Yeah. Well, I'm cooking dinner. My dream Wednesday night and Fran was like save me some I said obviously if no one doesn't fucking eat at all. Remember when you drink me and the Georgia shorts and you ate all the pasta salad. And I said, wow. Okay. Oh, that pasta. It was good. All right, baby. I'll make it this week. I don't know. But we will be there and we're going to have so much fun. Yep. I, yesterday, I have to talk about this very quickly. My license expired on Sunday my birthday and I haven't gone around to legally changing my last name yet because I realized like our travel is pretty much booked until the end of the year with like shows and work travel that we have. And I'm like, okay, well, now I can't change. Right. Well, there's no way to like change the name is there is like those flights that are already booked. Would you just have to cancel them? To me, it seems just like a whole process. So I would not have a trip booked when you go to change. I know it's very hard. So that's why I'm like, oh my god, I have to do this, but it's like just taking me a while but it's fine. Like, no, like, now what it, like, it's fine. I don't think anyone's like, give me your fucking driver's license to see that it's your last name. No. You have a new password too. Yeah, I have to change everything. I literally have to change everything. And I haven't done it. But that's fine. Because personally, I go by my husband's last name professionally. Yeah. But I do plan on changing it legally, but I just haven't done it yet. But besides the point, I was like, okay, I'll just renew my license online. And then when I actually change my last name, like, I'll go through the whole process. I'll go through the whole process. But I don't want to go to the DM base. I'll just renew it online for now. But I needed a vision test. And really, yeah, because it's, I don't know, I just needed a vision test to like renew it online. So I was like, oh, okay, I'll like go do whatever to get a vision test. Yeah. And I was like, no, you can do a vision test online. And they just like upload it to the DM base. Renews your license. And I was like, okay. Why cheat on that? So he sent, it was not cheating thing. It's like a website that you get on zoom with like a whatever. So let me tell you. It was like, we do it on the zoom as a stranger. You make a fake shit of all time. I got on a zoom. Are you looking at the eye chart? Yes. Yeah. What if he was like a little blur? No. Through zoom. - Optimilogist. - Optimilogist. - Optimilogist. - Optimilogist. - Optimilogist and Optimilogist. I don't know, it literally was like, boom, boom, read two things. - Optimilogist. - And Optimilogist. - Optimilogist. - It's an Optimilogist also, I think. - Yeah, I think there's multiple types of ops, right? - Yeah, Optimilogist. - Opta, eyes. - Got on, read like two things. They were like, you passed. Congratulations. - I said perfect. - Wow, that's amazing. I do think there's a certain amount of time for, and I don't know if it's like every state where it's like, you do have to go redo it. 'Cause I remember when I did my license, when I renewed my license, but I guess I was getting my New York license and saying bye-bye to my New Jersey license. And then I had to go, I did the test in the DMV. - I'm gonna have to go to the DMV at one point, but this one I was able to just renew. - No, well, you have this one for as long as you need a test. - That's crazy. - It loaded right to the DMV, boom, renewed my license immediately. It was the fakeest shit ever. I mean, I guess it's real. - And that's maybe why we have so many bad drivers on the road. - That was my thought. I said, oh, well, no wonder everyone's getting approved. Because they told me to take the amount of steps back from the screen and they watched me take the steps back and then they were like, all right, you're good right there. How do you know? How do you know how far I really am from the screen? - Yeah, and then boom, I passed. And Doris was like, I think you could have had someone off to the side, like being, telling you, I don't know. - It was like too, it was so fast and that was it. - What's your vision these days? Good? - Perfect, yeah. - Was that basic? - 20, 20. - So I don't know. - Basic congratulations, you passed. I didn't really get a score. - Yeah, yeah, but good stuff. - Good stuff, yeah, so that was. - I was almost just like, I know I would like his smirk. - I keep looking up and just seeing him and being like, oh my God, there he is. - Yeah, it was a nice smirk. Wow, you know what, it's like hard to talk about anything else with this being our thousandth episode, you know? - Glend. - Leave it on Glend. - Friend, leave it on Glend. - Soon enough, we'll be able to talk about our time with Glend. - Yeah. - Soon. - Ideas. - Yeah. - All right, well, beautiful, green eyes. Notice that, he's going, he's going to fucking powell, man. - Yeah. - Someone's Trent. - Yes. - Trent does have beautiful eyes. - He's got beautiful eyes, too. - Should we go through that today? - Should we think about everybody's eyes? - Yeah, everybody's looking good. - Greg. - Greg. (laughing) - This is Dave, obviously, pre haircut. - Yeah, it's like he got a haircut recently. - He did, he did, yeah, yeah. Greg also always cracks me up. He's keep funny, keep funny. - Yeah, it's like, all right. - Well, thanks. He's always being. - He's always a jokester. - I couldn't believe, I said, you know what? - I got to end it on Jake Shane. - I loved it, 'cause I love this show. - He really is everywhere. - I loved it, and we love it. - And I love him, and I like to think that he likes us, too. - No, I like to think that he loves us as well, but he has so many friends. - It's so true. - He has so many friends, and it's like, I don't know if we crack, crack it, you know? Enough to make the video, though. So I think that's-- - Yeah, he went away to make the video, and that's big. - Yeah. - More than the Jonas Brothers can say. - Well, no shit, okay, you know? Stop bringing it up. It is what it is at this point, okay? Stop bringing it up. I'm gonna continue to listen. Oh, you know what? I'm gonna make a sign. Should I make a sign? - A sign? - I got floor seats for MSG. - Oh, fine. - For burning up tour all over again. Yeah, make a sign. - Giant sign? - You did wish the office. - A happy day. - Yes, absolutely, you should. - Absolutely, you should. You should have to make a sign. - All right, I think that's it for the episode. I mean, we just wanted to celebrate a thousand, and we have this amazing video that we did not know was happening truly. I kinda had a feeling. - Which, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yesterday, Fran was like, oh, it's something, I'm like nothing's happening. - Well, well, we were talking some logistics about the, about our next few episodes, and I could just read it on Noah's face. 'Cause he, like, he was just, we were on Zoom or whatever when we were recording. He's like, yeah, I don't think we should do that. - But didn't knock on it. - And I'm like, okay. I just, I was picking up on the sentence a little bit. - Did it, were you ever like, oh, I wonder if they're, I feel like you had said it once, being like, are you making another video? Like the five of you? - No, I genuinely didn't think anything of it. I'm not the lie. - I think we only said it one time as a joke, and it was like months ago. Like, when we were, when we were in like the 900s, I think we were like, oh, what are we gonna have another video? And, but I don't think we, I didn't think anything of it. So it was a genuine, nice surprise. - Yeah, and it's like 1,000 is like, there's not many milestones I've heard that. - I was like, even 2,000 doesn't sound that big. - No, no, 1,000 is the big one. - And because after 1,000, it's like. - Maybe 5,000, 5,000 is insane. - Not many podcasts, I feel like I've reached that yet. - No. - No, so, isn't big. - Hey Jonas, if they ever reach the thousand. - Good luck. - We will not be fucking sending you over the rest. - Don't even ask. - Oh man. - All right, well, see what MSJ, I'll be there. Don't worry guys, yeah, with a sign and everything. Well, thank you guys so much and we'll talk to you on Friday. We'll be live from Palm Springs, so maybe we'll have topics, we'll have stories. - I'm getting my dance on this weekend. - Yeah, we're gonna be dancing. It's gonna be great. - We do have a great interview on today's episode. - And it does. - And it does feel reminiscent of We're Engaged Plus out of Vine. - Out of Vine. - It is the 1,000th episode plus Monica Barbara. - Yes, and you know what? We had so much fun with her and she is so fantastic that it does feel. like a fantastic matchup. - It does, you know? - She was so fun and I really loved the interview. - Yeah. - So yeah, I walked out of here gushing about her. So I feel like we're in such a happy mood right now. Everything's been so great, celebrating a big thing. And I feel like it's a good way to end the episode. - Absolutely, so let's get into it. - Nair is the award-winning number one hair removal brand. You can discover sensational fragrances and feel silky smooth skin for days longer than shaving. That's the best part about Nair. You're shaving less and you're glowing more. You're not getting any nicks or bumps or cuts from shaving. You are only getting glowing skin. It's fast and it's smooth skin and as little as three minutes. It's blade-free hair removal for all skin types and it's dermatologist tested. So get ready for pool time, get ready for beach, get ready for laying out, and shave less glow more and find Nair at all major retailers. - All right, everyone. We are here with a very special guest. We have Monica Barbaro in studio. We are so excited to have you here. We love you. We are such big fans and we watched one night only and we loved it. It is so fun. - Thank you so much. - And I just, how excited are you for people to see this movie because it's a little different from the last few things that you've done. - Yeah, it's a little more absurd. - Yeah, I'm so excited for people to see it. This is one where yes, of course it's best for everyone if a movie does well in the box office. But this is one where I really feel like a lot of people would just have such a fun time seeing it that I really, I want people to have that experience. I know that sounds, that may sound crazy, but that may sound like it's so much sense. It's summer, we want fun movies. We love fun romcoms, I think that makes total sense to want people to just have a good time while watching a movie. - Yeah, there's something like cathartic about the movie too, the way it talks about dating and that kind of, again, absurdity. And then also just like, it's in this world where the government feels out of control but everyone's just trying to find love and do their thing. And like live their lives, you know? Like, yeah, 'cause you kind of have to get pat, like at first you're gonna, like, we not, I'm sorry, the government, and then you're like, oh my God, they all have like, they're bioscanned and you're like, wow. But then there's also funny commentary because you're kind of like, oh, this is absurd, but like crazy shit happens in this world. And like, but these people just want to find love. - Yeah, and when like Molly Ringwald and Lavar Burton have this band, like they go back and forth about like why this happened, it's just like, it just feels like so real. It feels like everyone's holding COVID. Just like, right, exactly. How did you join the film? Like when you received the premise, the script, how did you feel about it? - I feel like absurd as the name of the game. I was pitched this and I was like, I just, it was that kind of like, what? That sounds crazy, but also made me laugh and I just felt kind of immediately intrigued. And they were like, will wants to meet with you before you read the script. So I was like, for us sometimes that's like a red flag like as if the script is not gonna be great. And then we had this meeting. He was like, super funny, super great. We have friends in common and he had a really interesting take on this movie where he was like, okay, I want you to watch Uncut Gems. I want you to watch Midnight Run and. - Oh, I was the other one. - After hours. - Okay. And so I was like, you, that's not, you haven't mentioned a single rom-com. But like, tonally, it's such a specific take on this film. And then he sent the script and I was like laughing out loud, reading the whole thing. And so, and everyone that I trust who also read it was like, texting me live, like, I keep laughing. It's really great. So it just kind of felt like a no-brainer. And it's a concept that's crazy, but it also makes you go like, what would I do? What does the rest of the world look like in that alterment universe? - That's the best kind of conversations after you leave a movie when you leave the movie theater and you're talking to whoever you went with. You're like, what would you do? Also, we love so many of Will's movies. I feel like, like you said, like watching just a fun movie is exactly what we get. Wilglow the director writer. So fun. I mean, we were just talking about fired up. Because we were like, we can't believe you did that movie. One of our favorites. - Not one that talks about enough in our opinion. - No, truly, no one has mentioned fired up. I need to like, re-watch that. - That is what it's worth of re-watch is. It is also so absurd, but you laugh at every single part and has done so many amazing rom-coms. Easy A, friends, it's better. It's like all these great movies. - And you know when you have those movies with your friends that you quote really often that maybe some people don't like, that's fired up for you? - Yeah, I don't know what it is, it's just like really hit. Bro, I'd be done though. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - No, no, no, no, don't say it. What does he say? - Ted and Crocs. - I mean, we can go back and forth. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Again, nocturne. - Yeah, the whole movie is amazing. - Wilglow's gonna enjoy watching you guys do this. So much, we're like, get her off the script. - I've seen too much of Monica. I just want to watch them quote my movie. - Carly Davidson, yeah. It's just one of those back and forth. So you have to re-watch it. - I really need to re-watch it. - 'Cause you're kind of like missing the inside joke here. - Yeah, I miss you. - I miss you. - Yeah, everything. - So good. But he also has some amazing pairings. You know, we watched anyone, but you was so great. - Yeah. - And Gladys and Yusumi were so great in that movie. And you and Callum Turner are so good in this movie. What was your first interactions like with Callum? Had you met him before? - No, we'd never met before. We met. Our first day that we met was at the beginning of like a short rehearsal period with Wil. And he's just a great, nice, easy-going guy who also takes the work really seriously. So it's like that great combination of having high standards but also really wonderful to work with. Oh God. - This is moving. (laughing) It's fighting back. My body's like, you're eating? Thank you. - Yeah, yeah. Yeah, he's great. He's, and it was just, yeah, like silly and fun and easy and will, like famously with his rom-coms, he loves that bite banter kind of like ribbing comedy. And so that just felt very easy to do. I think my dog was there and he was really great with my dog and I was like, oh, you're a good person, you know? - Yeah, that's like a telltale sign. - It just kind of, yeah, is. - I feel like your press that you have been doing together has been so fun. Was that kind of the vibe on set? - Yeah, it was just, like, I wouldn't say making the movie was easy because making a movie is always challenging and hard and it was like 20 degrees in the middle of the night pretending it's the dead heat of summer. But it was easy in terms of the relationship with Calum and Will and just like, we were like a familial trio and just sort of like giving each other shit all the time. And also we had a lot of safety, which I think you need comedically to be able to try things and fall on your face and then try again. And yeah, Will really fostered that kind of like freedom environment. - What's that feeling like when you sort of take a risk, maybe you go off script and you want to try something funny? And then it works or it doesn't work? - I feel like you must, well, never mind. No, you're funny all the time. - Yeah, I was just like, excuse me. - I'm so sorry, Monica. - Like what's it like to fail at being funny? - I don't relate. - I'm so sorry, I've never had that before. - So can you tell us more about it? - Well, she made us do a whole bit for the podcast yesterday that she said we weren't being funny enough and we cut the whole thing. - So that feel like for them, not good. - For me, I was doing great. - Just kidding. - You just got the will and us dynamic of scrap that. It's not funny. - Cut. - Cut. - Yeah, that's the, doing it like, I think the worst is trying to do something maybe five times and then him coming forward and being like, yeah, that's not working. - Yeah, we got that. - Yeah, I'm clear. - Picked up from your reaction. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And the lack of crew smiling every day. - Right. - Yeah. - I feel like there's been more discussion lately about the way directors or the crew react to actors on set. What's a good reaction from Will? - From Will, he gets this cheeky smile. His shoulders are up and he'll walk in like this and be like, that's really funny. That's funny. He's like kind, he's like very cool, but he's also kind of an absolute nerd. I don't know how to explain it. He's like, he's like young and with it, but then also there's something, I'm so sorry, Will. There's something like deeply kind of do we be about him? - In a really adorable, wonderful way. - Kind of like the Owen character in this movie where you're like, I think I love him even more when he's embarrassing himself in some capacity. - In a more endearing way. You're sort of like, oh, you're kind of a nerd. - Yeah. - And I feel like comedians talk about this all the time when they're in a room and they want a laugh, but maybe the audience can't laugh for some reason. So they're like, I don't know what, I don't know if this is funny.
or not, I really think of, 'cause I always think of people-- - I feel like that's what people tell themselves. - Yes, they couldn't laugh. - You're like famously the SNL auditions is like, no, they're all in the room, no one laughs. - Yes, I've heard that. - So it's like you don't know, like, you could have bombed or been really good, but no one really has a reaction. With a massive crew around you and you're telling jokes, they can't audibly be laughing. - Yes, they can't make noise. But, oh, Luke on the handy can, so we had, there was a lot of like hand-held, like I said, like the uncut gems kind of energy of like that frenetic, kind of chaotic New York City energy was a part of how they filmed this. So, poor thing, especially when you're going through loads of comedic attempts and in these long scenes, like a hand-held camera is heavy, so he's just like, living that way. But, we knew we were onto something good when like, you try to not know that the camera's there, but you kind of do, and you could always just see like, from behind his, all you could see was this part of him, and you could just see when something was funny, he'd just get this really big grin. And so, that was like our little tip off. - Yeah, a little tip off. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - But then, but if we were in a giggle state and like, couldn't control it, and then he was doing that, it was, that was really hard. But yeah, I think maybe that's the, maybe that's the blessing of not waiting to hear laughter, like because they can't, we can tell ourselves like, "Oh, well, they would be laughing if they could." - Yeah, right, we crushed that. - Yeah, absolutely. - Kalam has famously British, although people may not realize that. Because I think he does an amazing, like, New York. - Yeah, incredible. - Accent. - And it feels fairly authentic where it's like, but I do find that his American accent, just in general, feels like a New York accent. And he's done it multiple times now. - Yeah, Masters of the Air, he's an American poet. Yeah, I think, I thought it was flawless. Will would sometimes, like, catch a sound and I'd be like, "Will, I disagree." - Yeah, yeah. - I think it's perfect. - Yeah, I thought he was, like, I thought he does a great, like, good New York, where it's not like, like a character of a New York accent. - Yeah, it's not like-- - No, I'm from that one. - Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Like, it was good, it was good. - I think if anything, that was maybe more of the thing. Like, Will would be like, that sounded like really New York, right? - Right, right, right. - Like, you could turn it down to a little bit. - Yeah, we don't sound like that. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I know you own a pizza shop, but just bring it down a little bit. And I guess also, we're talking about the movie, like everybody knows we're talking about. The premise of this movie is that there's only one night a year that pre-marital sex is allowed. - Yes. - There's a ban on pre-marital sex. Government mandated, and there's one night. So it's a hilarious watch, 'cause when you see that clock hit, chaos in the streets. - Yes. - How, what were those moments like filming in the streets of New York? Because everything is in New York City. - That was, I mean, that was a test of my own ability to not try and not laugh at very hilarious things that were happening all around me. - It's hard to shoot in New York City because there's a lot of paparazzi, but also just like people walking by and staring. And also, we were shooting for summer, but it was the fall and winter. So we couldn't, you couldn't just blend the background into the shot, like we had to clear, we had to wait and clear all of the people on the street a lot. And I just, I have ADHD. So like, I need someone like stops. I was like, is that Callum Turner? I'm like, I'm sorry, I can't wait. I don't know how to stay in the scene. Which he was much better at. But yeah, I mean, we had incredible background. Actually, most of them are actual couples. There was this one duo where I was like, you're a couple, right? And they're like, we're just friends. I was like, oh, okay, well, maybe not after today. - Yeah, eight hours later. Are you guys still just friends? - Yeah, you guys about to make it a lot. To the heck of the scene, is it doing anything for you? - Yeah. And that was the thing too. You'd start the day and people were like, let's do it. And then like the eighth hour, they were like, (laughing) I was like, you guys don't need to kiss for like two years. - Here we go again. - What was it like, you know, you mentioned paparazzi. Maybe you go online, you see a shot from what you're filming. What's that reaction like? Are you upset about it? Or you're like, this is just the name of the game now? - For this movie, it didn't bother me nearly as much as like, like for a completely unknown, it was sort of like, I had to just like shut down. Like, not look at any internet, anything. 'Cause I know the number one comment is gonna be how wrong we are for the part or how inaccurate it is. Or so, and I was like so terrified, so concerned with like getting everything right in that film. And it's really distracting. 'Cause it doesn't feel like 1960s New York. - Yeah, and it shot near me in Jersey. - Oh yeah. - I was actually stalking you. - Do you live in Jersey? (laughing) - Yeah, I live in New York. - Right, no, I live in Jersey City, and you guys were a lot of the filming took place. - Yes. - 'Cause it looks more like my business. - I didn't, you know what I mean? Like, I was like, let them shoot. - Just wanna clarify, I was like, I was telling everyone on the street to let you guys be. - I would love for like footage to leave of you, just like, it's me. She's not right for this. - Yeah, I'm nominated for an Academy Award, really? (laughing) - Oh my gosh. - I disagree. - But you're right, it's playing a real, having to play a real person, and then having the feedback from that. - Yeah. - Hot Roddy Pictures from this is like, they don't know who I am. They don't know my character. They don't know really the details. - And the main thing with this, I mean, again, it was just sort of the distracting element, but I found that in this kind of a situation, if you do talk to them directly, rather than like have someone throw them off your set, and not treat them like a human being, it helps 'cause, actually a lot of them are, they understand, the ones who come to sets, they seem to understand eyeline. So if I was like, I have to look in that direction and act like something else is happening in front of me, can you please get out of the eyeline? They would understand that. Or if our AD went to them and we were like, "Hey, can you guys just move over here?" Like, often they were willing, not always. - Yeah. - But yeah, more often than not, the ones who were really dedicated and are always on sets seem to kind of, I don't know, understand that, which is weird 'cause then you're like, I don't know. It feels like there's a machine around it that I just never knew about before. - Right, this is like, we'll leave you with your job about, this is your whole job, like to do, showing up at sets, kind of, kind of, kind of. - Well, and then you're like, "Oh, I really don't want this element to leak." Or like, you know, you don't want the end of the movie to be out in the press before it gets to happen in the. - But luckily, the fun thing about this is that Ali fantasizes a lot. So like, whatever has been seen on the internet as you're watching the movie, that may or may not be - Right. - really what happens in the story. - I do, that is a smart way to do it too, 'cause I actually do really remember seeing all the paparazzi shots of Pete Davidson. And, oh yeah, Bobby? - Yeah. - Who's that Bobby kind of Ali? - I remember seeing those shots of them filming and everyone was like, "Oh, they're in this movie "is the whole thing," and then watching it, I'm like, "There they are, there they are." That's their moment, right? And, 'cause it's really just like a kind of a quick cameo type thing. So you don't know until you watch the movie, like you're looking at all these pictures, you don't really know what's going on, right? And as consumers, we don't want to be spoiled either. So it is a weird line of being excited. People love you guys, seeing you guys film a movie together, but then being like, wait, we don't want it to be spoiled. We want to be surprised as well. - Yeah. - Which I still felt we got with them. - Yeah. - It was unspoiled? - You didn't feel spoiled? - No, no, no. - Amazing. Also, when you've got like boob tape or like a harness or like something, you're like, "Can you please, "can you please just not share the one where my. " - Right, right. - Actual tits are out. - Yeah. - That would be kind. - That would be so appreciated. - I really appreciate that. Asria did just joke, and all seriousness, the Academy Award nominee, which is so incredible. That movie was-- - I thought you were gonna talk about my-- - Your tits? - Yeah. - I thought about it, but as we decided to spin it to a very classy nominee, they used to take the next 20 minutes to talk. - We got to have that, so we don't have to just talk about my tits. - Yeah, instead of being an Academy nominee. - The Oscars? - No! - Come on, come on, come on. But that is gotta be just one of the most fulfilling feelings getting that nomination. Where were you when you were told about it? Or watched it? - I was in London, so I was like middle of the day, and I was in a fitting with an incredible costume designer who is friends with our costume designer, and we were actually kind of looking more to see if the costume designer got it, and like who of the group got it, but I did not have any expectation that I would be on that list. That was like a nuts, that was crazy. I mean, I had to kind of like process it the night before a little bit 'cause people told me it could happen, but there was no like, oh for sure this is happening. I don't know that anyone feels that way, but some people like through the process of an award season are constantly getting nominations. - Yeah. - So it may be.
maybe is a little bit more like still exciting, but kind of like, okay, we thought this would happen. I was definitely more of like a late kind of surprise. So it was truly nuts. - How did this is the timing of like when that movie was released, was definitely on the later side of the year. - Yeah, yeah, for sure. - So it was like, I remember trying to kind of rush to make sure I saw it before all the nominations and things started to come out. And Timmy and Ed had gotten Golden Globe recognition and BAFTA recognition and so maybe critics choice too. And so I just, I didn't, there was no assumption that I'd be a part of that. And so that was kind of mind blowing. And like just the coolest thing. - So amazing, ever. - How did you prepare for that? 'Cause you go in, and like you said, you weren't even expecting a nomination, but then you do get the nomination. Now you have to sit there and be like, am I gonna win this? What's gonna happen? How do I react? When I win, how do I react if I don't win? Like what is the thought process going into that night? - This sounds kind of crazy, but like you do get a sense. I mean, there are a lot of online bets going on about these, like people like to study it. And that doesn't mean you can predict it. - There's a lot of stats involved. - And the stats about me said she's not gonna win it. So I actually felt so certain that I wasn't going to get it. But I also felt like, you know, maybe this is the only time in my entire life that this will have ever happened. And everything I've done up until this point has gotten me here. And you know, like you don't wanna do a disservice to it just because, like you wanna just embrace it and be present and really enjoy it. I had my dad with me because he's just like the least star-struck person in the world. And so it was really just like a very calming energy. Like he's just there to be, I mean, and yet when we walked into the theater right before it started, he kind of held his breath and was like, whoa, 'cause it's just this huge. I mean, it's larger than life. And I was like, oh yeah, 'cause I'd been two years prior and because I'd just been in this sort of publicity poll, I forgot to like take that moment and look and he was really receiving it. And I was like, oh yeah, I'm so glad you're here. Someone who is not used to this or not jaded by it or overly experienced, it was just like really, when he's impressed, it's like genuine and, you know, and really grounding because it can really take you to that moment, which is hard to do. Especially I feel like with the recent years that you had, because starting with Top Gun, I feel like, you know, when people talk about your career, they go back to Top Gun and they're like, this breakthrough moment. And then from there, did it kind of feel just like, oh my gosh, I'm so booked and busy. Now my whole world is changing. - Yeah, yes and no. I mean, we also filmed Top Gun in 2018, 2019. So we sat on it for a really long time and that felt like the slowest, longest period of time in my whole life. And then, yeah, I mean, I don't know, it's funny. It's like all, I guess it's all perspective 'cause I think to some other people, it feels like it's rapid fire like building so quickly. And to me, maybe because I've been doing this for so long, it feels less like that. And yet, I haven't been home for more than like five days. I feel like in three years, right? So, yeah, I don't know. I don't know that I like have perspective about that. - Well, you have been working in this industry for so long as well, like you said. How did you initially get into it? Like, is acting something you did when you were younger? Is it something you always had love for? Like, what is more of your earlier story? - I was in ballet. I was put in ballet like very, very young. And, but then when I was 12, in my school, like everyone was required, it was like required Shakespeare. And we did "Amid Summer Night's Dream" and I just felt, it was that thing where I was like, oh, this is like what? I love this so much. This is the hardest I've ever worked on anything. And I like memorized everyone's lines. And it was like time didn't cease to exist when I had that play open and was just like reading through it. And I still didn't do it for a really long time 'cause I was kind of afraid of quitting ballet and also like embracing what I felt like would seem kind of like a pipe dream. Or like, I don't know. I think I felt like it was like, if you say you wanna be an actor, you're saying that you want to be famous. Or you want to, like the associations with it, I felt like we're not as positive as it was, certainly in my family to be, to excel at like a classical art form like ballet. Like that to my parents, I think was very special. And yeah, it's also like hard to leave something. Like all my friends were in ballet. And you were at NYU for dance. Yeah. And the acting was kind of like, I held out for a really long time of dance. A few acting classes but like really held on to dance. I mean, ballet has gotta be one of the strictest disciplines to participate in. What was that like for you growing up? 'Cause I know it can be very tough on a lot of young girls being in ballet. Oh, completely, yeah. Yeah, it took me years to get, you know, whiplash. Yeah, it took me years to get the artistic director of my ballet school to get her voice out of my head. And it was one that for me in my experience was similar to that dynamic, maybe not J.K. Simmons. White, but yeah, a little bit. I was like, oh, yep. And Miles' character also wants more of it and becomes, it is a little bit chicken or the egg. Like I know I was a friend's, other friends of mine quit well before I got to that stage. So like the friends of mine I have who stayed in it with me, we sometimes are like, but also was I kind of built for it. Did I like that kind of feedback? So yeah, that is an interesting conversation to have though, right? Because although very hard, you're like, is there a part of me that was thriving off that? Yeah, 'cause I'm like other kids quit. I remember there was a girl we were about to have one new teacher who was super strict and I remember she was like, she was like, I'm so scared of that teacher I'm quitting. And I was like, that's wild. But also makes a lot of sense and good for her. And my friends and I were like, nope. Yeah, I'm gonna stay in it. Yeah. It's like proving something to yourself and to other people weirdly, you know? I think that maybe is a part of also why it felt hard to walk away from, why I didn't just pivot into like, I mean, I had, there were great drama programs in my hometown and at my high school. And felt there was a, my school had like a public school in California and it had this amazing film program, which I also wanted to be a part of. But I just kept, I stayed in ballet.

Is dance with me, like is that what made you want to leave California and come to New York for college? I actually kind of thought I was like, well, once I met NYU, maybe I can like start auditioning. Right. While I'm in class for like 12 hours a day with the dance conservatory, it was just nuts. I don't know, somehow in my fantasy, I was like, I'll become an actor once I get there. Right, that's your step one to get to New York. It will figure it out from there. It's like an old-timey musical. I'm like, once I'm in New York, I can do it. Maybe not exactly in that way, but you did do it. Yes, you know? Yes, yes. Yeah, I then had to like, after college had no money, had to like leave New York and move back home, but it was San Francisco, which was a smaller market to kind of like start out in the commercial.
thing. So it's kind of the opposite. I was like, oh, New York's big. You can get out of here. And then, yeah. So do you remember those early auditions? Yeah. Some of them were so rough. I think the worst one I ever had was one where it was like the group all comes in. There's a group of people watching. Like, like, we all come in, we introduce ourselves. And then, like, six people were told to wait, like, off to the side. Like, they would be over there. While one person is pretending they're in a water fight. And I was first. I was the guinea pig. And it was like, pretend you're in a water fight. And just like improvise, like, you're talking to someone. But they weren't going to improvise with me. I just had to respond to nobody in a corner while six people stood there and watched me. And I remember that being like, can I, can I keep doing this? Can I? I do have just enough shame to feel like this is so embarrassing. Like, did you, what did you have to pretend the water was being like thrown on you? Yeah. It was like, stop it. Like, literally, that's, that's what it is. And then I also found out, then they let me go after. So like, the last person got to do that with no one in the room. I had to do it with everyone in the room. Yeah. And it was kind of that thing where it was like, um, okay, let's try something else, like, they weren't organized. So they were just trying things. And I was like, okay, try something else now. And okay, so really you are a triple threat because, um, the dancing can act in a water fight. Yeah. And yeah, quadruple. Actually, I didn't get the job. Yeah, water fight down. And you have an amazing voice. You're an amazing singer. Um, I loved seeing that be a part of one night only because, you know, we, we saw obviously in a, in a completely unknown, very different kind of singing for, for one night only. And I was like really laughing because these are some funny jingles that, that you're doing. But did you want to sing again in this movie or was it something that maybe you were worried about because now now people, well, she's a singer. I mean, I thought I would, I would be more prepared for it this time around. And I found out that I am just as terrified as I always was. It was less pressure because I didn't have to emulate someone who is so beloved. And also, I kind of tailored the character to be anxious about it in a way that I could, I could just be my anxious self about it. And then some and like have that be a part of the character more so. So that, so that was nice to get to like, kind of be honest about it and to have slightly less pressure. Um, but at the same time, I still, I'm just like, I mean, ballet, I can be like really hard on myself and wanted to sound really, really good and do my absolute best. And if it's not sounding like the best thing I've ever heard, I'll just keep like going back over it. But I, I got to work with the same vocal coach I did on a complete unknown. So he, he knew the game right away. Yeah. We're back. And we actually like, that was another thing we would, we would, we would rehearse the song and we would just like bust up, laugh, particularly the psoriasis song. Yes. We would just laugh so hard. It was like hard to get through it, which that felt cathartic too to kind of put music in that space and just have it be a little bit more free. Um, and just silly. Yeah. And it was so funny because we all see the commercial song all the time. It's so relatable now. So it was funny to think like, I was like, wow, who does which makes you laugh? Just like a working singer. Yeah. And, and when it kind of, when the movie introduces your character, I was like, Oh, that's so nice. Like she's a singer in New York. And then you, then psoriasis comes out and I was like, Oh, this is different. She's not like recording her new album. It is something we joke about on our podcast too, are these jingles. So it did feel very relatable. Really? They don't have so many funny ones. They don't have them in Australia or England. They're like illegal there. I could see. I can see that. I mean, because they are catchy. Yeah, but it's dangerous. Yeah, but it is really just a complete rip off of an original song. Yeah, it's so much. Well, and maybe it's like the promotion of pharmaceutical. I don't know. I really wrote scene music. Just get you going. Yeah. I was like, are they going to get it in those yeah, but they'll be like, what? No, no, but I think they will. Yeah, because you talked about how, you know, you're a perfectionist when it comes to these things and how singing in a movie can make you anxious. Is it something you want to keep doing is, you know, doing films where you are singing? Or is it something you kind of just like, if it feels right? I think if it, I think if it feels right, I'm not seeking that out. And I wasn't for this, but I was like, okay, I actually think, yeah, it's nice to take some time off of it. But yeah, if another one came up that I felt really excited about and had to do that, it'd be like, okay, yeah, I make so much sense in this movie and I think Will has done like his, there's so many iconic musical moments in his movies that it makes actually like, well, this fits this movie and working with him to do it this way because there are so many moments like, you know, you think about that big friends with benefits. See, like, there's just so many big musical moments and like pocket full of suns. I was just going to say that. Yeah, like, there's really so many things that it make and now when you hear the song, it makes you think of the movie. Yeah. And, and they're catchy for a reason. And also, I got to work with SDheim and she did, because she's like our composer on it. And not only am I just obsessed with her now, but she, she was just so great with understanding the comedy and also like getting my confidence up and like just playing. So our recording sessions were some of the most fun that I had, even like Andrew Burnap who like plays the song on the piano with me. We were with Will like trying to find the best possible song for that. And then once we found it, we're like, okay, how do we harmonize it? How do we do? And we had this, we had a little rehearsal thing moment in the recording studio set because there was a piano there where we were just trying stuff. And I was like, this is, like, I think this is literal heaven. This is so fun to get to just play with SD, try things. And like, design a song. I was like, I would love to work on music in some capacity if it can be the way SD does it, where it's just like fun and trying things and energy and, um, you know, free, yeah way. And she's so talented. I don't know if this is a weird thing to say, but you can tell by your speaking voice that you're a phenomenal singer. You know, like you just can, right? I, you're right. It's just, I think you guys also would be great singers. Really? Some of the worst you'll ever hear. No. No. Trust me. Our listeners are really tired of us. You know, I'm really loving it. I'm really loving this interview and we don't need to drop, we don't need people to drop. We don't need you to think of us differently. We don't need other people to think of us differently. Like, it's okay. I do find, I think you guys both have incredible speaking voices. Well, thank god we speak for our love. Thank you very much. But unfortunately for us, it does not translate. I've always wanted it to translate. It's like my dream, but it's actually so bad that it's not, it can't even be worked on. I don't think that's true. No, it is true because when I was younger and my acting teacher said, hey, can I hear you sing Happy Birthday? But see, no, can I hear you just like, well, I want to see a tune and I sang Happy Birthday. She said, it's not going to be for you. We're just going to stick to the acting. You're not going to be able to do the singing part, you know? Yeah, but I don't, I thought I don't believe Monica, maybe it's true. How have we finished going to hear a song? But when did you find, like, who was the first person to tell you, wait, I think you can sing? Were you singing at a young age? No, I did. I did a singular like season with a choir make like extra curricular. Should I try this? It was not really. And then I would sing at home to myself, but not much. So was it really like a complete unknown where you were like, I'm going to sing for this? Yeah. Yeah. And like the occasional thing, maybe in an acting class, capacity, it'd be like, you should maybe do. Have you ever thought about that? It was that kind of thing. But yeah, I think it was a complete unknown where it was like, okay, just natural. Yeah. No. Truly though, Eric Vichert, like I could not sing the songs that she sang in the register that she did. And Eric is a magician. Yeah. I had strep at the beginning of, at the end of this play run that I was just doing in London. And I had to do some ADR for this movie, including like sing a note or two to like clean up some stuff from set. And he, I don't know how he did it. I was like, I came in like a toad. And then I was singing. And then suddenly I was like, I have to have like an equal animal to like a songbird. I don't know. How do I come in like a toad and was a beautiful hummingbird? How did you like working on, how do you, yeah, seriously? How'd you like working on the on the west end? Oh.
London Theatre is like the best. It's the coolest. The community is just really gorgeous and funny and wild and I had a really great time with that. Was theatre something you were interested in like when you first, because I feel like there's people who want to be an actor and they're like, I want to be in movies and then I want to do theatre and sometimes they don't really overlap. Yeah, I've wanted to do anything and everything since I've started and I missed being on stage. That was my first play, like official play and I really loved dancing on stage so I was really excited about that and it was amazing and the national kind of is like it sort of feels like going to college in a way or like drama school or something. It feels almost like you're in dorms and they have all the resources available to you that you might need and there's a subscriber base so the audiences are always really strong and it just, yeah, it was just the best way to launch into it. That's amazing. We have to wrap up. We could probably talk for another hour. I'm having so much fun but my last question for you is you got to pick somebody out of you've had some amazing co-stars. Stellar Blue coffee, ready to drink can lattes are officially available nationwide at Target.

Grab a Stellar Blue target, taste the difference and make a difference. Stellar Blue coffee. If you were to be on a stranded, you had to be on a stranded, deserted island with one co-star. I'll give you three to pick from. Glen Powell, Timothy Xiaomey, count turner. Who would you like to be stranded on a desert island with? They're all great pets. It's also like a fuck married kill. We won't do that. We can talk about that on a different show. Which also should be like a fuck married kid. It should be like a fuck married be my friend. Right, right. Sometimes you're just like, I don't want to kill it totally. Right, right. Um, stranded island. Who's that? Who's getting you off the island? Glen can't fly a plane. The trouble it is there. A plane there. He could maybe build one. But I know he. He's like sort of like a friend of ours now. So it feels like kind of. You know, sure, but because he and I are like friends. Yeah. If he sees, like, yeah, he sees us. He could, he could possibly see it. And you don't even know that guy as well as me. Yeah, I feel like. Yeah. Okay, so we'll just whisper that. It's gotta be going. It's gotta be going. I don't know. I don't know like how is, like when actors have been doing this for a long time, like their survival skills, I feel like fall away because me included, like I earlier today locked my entire team out of my hotel room because like I didn't even think to bring the hotel key. Right. So like we lose our sense of, um, self. Yeah, this officially. Yeah. So I feel like, I feel like Glen, when I knew him top gun, like would would would maybe be able to get us off the island nowadays, like, I don't know big, big movie star, Glenn Powell. I don't know how has he lost the ability to. So fair. But I also think that Texas. And I also think Glenn would be pumped to be chosen. You know what I mean? Like I don't know. I don't want the guy who's going to be excited that I show him. I don't know the other two. So I can't speak to that. But Glen, I know would be like, yeah, you know, yeah. And, and that's like why we're friends because he's just very, he's just such a fun enthusiastic. Okay. I think for the record, I think Calma do a great job getting off the island. But like, yeah, I'd love to hang out with him. He doesn't say a chance. That's what we, that's what we also got. I don't know. Yeah. I don't know. I just don't like it. Thank you so, so much.
