TATIANA MASLANY Rode a Burley In Saskatchewan

There is so much NFL on ESPN right now. Monday Night Football, plus pregame and postgame. NFL Live, NFL Primetime. Everything you need to stay on top of every game, every week. Unbelievable. And now, NFL Network is on the ESPN app. More football, more coverage, more ways to watch. Football's on, all season long, on ESPN and streaming on the ESPN app. Hi, Bajie. Hi, Sufi. How are you? I'm good. I haven't seen you in a minute. I know. I've been doing some real traveling as well. I'm very excited to tell you about it. I went to Madrid. Yeah. I've never been to Madrid. Or I was in Madrid once between Morocco and coming back to New York. And I got food poisoning and basically spent 24 hours in my hotel room. Oh, yeah, because you ate something ill-advised, correct? I had a pigeon pie. Genuinely. It was on a menu. Sufi, that is ill-advised. I know. It was on a menu, and I'm like, look, you know, went and roamed. And then I also ate some street food, looking back on, which I think, you know, the locals, I think, had no trouble with. I think maybe with a few more reps, I would have been fine. But my very sensitive stomach could not heal. There were a lot of suspects. It was like a game of Clue, trying to figure out which one did we have. It's hard to not finger the pigeon pie, but the street food. The pigeon pie. Yeah. Yeah. That's actually how you eat it. It's called fingering the pigeon pie. You put it, it's like a crust, and you pop it in, and you kind of stir it away to make sure there's no bones or feathers, and then eat up that pigeon. Anyway, for those listeners who haven't thrown up yet, here is my report on Madrid. So I went to Madrid, best possible reason, Alexi and I went. It's a wonderful city. A great 48-hour city, because I will say Spanish food is to die for, but I think on day three, it's to die from. Why? Because it's so, it's heavy? It's a lot of yamón, Pashi. Okay, yeah. It's a lot of salty hams. Yeah. A lot of people said, and based on the menus I saw, not a lot of salads in Spain. And even when you got a salad, it's. It's mostly tomatoes and a little bit of bacon. They're kind of like, hey, we maybe have more jamón than we can sell, so we might put it in your salad. I know that speaking to a vegan, these are not going to sound as delicious, but had this very thin breaded steak. That was one of the best things I've ever eaten. And the other super fun thing about Madrid, great museums. And everything is just so late. And if you're on the East Coast time, which is what we decided to stay on, like, we went to the premiere for this, you know, show. Started at 8 o'clock at night. It didn't even, they didn't even show it till like 10.30, like nobody minded. Yeah. And then there was like a party afterwards. It was great. So, had just a wonderful time. And it was, I can't remember the last time I was on a trip where I. A, wasn't working. And B, didn't have my kids. Oh, yeah. That's kind of a double bonus. Yeah. So, and you know what you can do when that's the case? Take a motherfucking nap. You can nap, man. Oh, I can nap. There was a, we were with a friend who had hooked up a private tour at the Prado Museum. And that was. That was day two. And it was a lot of, it's at 9 a.m. And so, we have to leave the hotel at 8.15 a.m. Let's meet downstairs. And I, every time somebody talked about it, in my head, Pasha, it was like, I ain't gonna be there. Well, that's a, so that's a nap first thing in the morning? Well, it was, I was gonna do a sleep in too. I was gonna do a sleep in and then I was gonna grab a nap. But I also didn't want to say I'm definitely not going because I think there was a real argument to this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. You gotta go. Fair enough. And I, you know, I didn't want to put pressure on my friends to try to convince me to go because I was 100% not going. And then Alexi slept in. She was definitely gonna go and she forgot to set an alarm and I certainly didn't. And we missed it by like three hours. Wow. Yeah, it was great. So, the private tour, who ended up going on it? Just Zach and Ariel? And some other people. We had a group of people. So, I think. The people who went still had a nice time. But it was just great. And then I went to New Orleans for a night this week. To do stand-up? No. I went to New Orleans with my book club. Wow. We're reading Sound and the Fury and eight gentlemen decided to go to New Orleans because there's a William Faulkner bookstore there. But mostly we decided to go just. To do a night of really fun eating and drinking and music in New Orleans. Where did you eat? We ate at three different restaurants. One of my friends was in charge. Was it three dinners? It was three dinners. Was it really? It was three, but he said. He arranged ahead of time. He had a friend in the restaurant business in New Orleans and he basically said, We're gonna show up. We're gonna be there for an hour. Will you please bring us your two best appetizers? Oh, how well coordinated. It was amazing. And then the only downside that was also a giant upside is every place kind of brought like five different appetizers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. By the last place, I was definitely maybe a little not ready for a full pork dish, but. It sounds like the pork's coming to get you, Sufi. The pork was coming to get me. On this side of the Atlantic. On this side of the Atlantic and the other. But yeah, the seafood part of the New Orleans was, I think, from my personal experience, was incredible. But I haven't really done like a proper New Orleans day like that. Yeah. And it was great. Did you have any crawfish etouffee? I didn't. I didn't. Did Souffé have etouffee? Is that what you're asking? That's what I'm asking. Did Souffé ate etouffee? I think that's a palindrome. No, but I had fried oysters. Fried oysters was, I think, my favorite thing. Also, this you'll appreciate. There was like this really good like crab dip that came with just saltines. Oh, yeah. Let me just say, I know I was at three different restaurants with incredible staffs and like the highest level chefs. Does anything beat a saltine, Poshy? I can eat a sleeve of saltines at the drop of a hat. Yeah. I mean, we used to have them around for like. And we weren't feeling well, but like, I don't know. If you start, it's hard to stop. Oh, a saltine. Give me a saltine. Also, I don't know if you watch Digman, the Andy Samberg cartoon where he basically talks like Nicolas Cage. It's fantastic. Yeah, I've seen the trailer. I've not watched the show. His sidekick's name is Saltine. And so now every time I see a saltine, I hear basically Andy's Nicolas Cage going, saltine. Anyway. How are you? Have you been on the road at all? I don't think so. Yeah. I've just been here. I've been hanging out. But I did my first movie in the cemetery, Cinespia, out here in Hollywood at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Their 25th season just kicked off this last year. So I went and I saw E.T., which I hadn't seen, I feel like, since I was 10. Yeah. I only have seen it recently because of the kids. Yeah. So good. Drew Barrymore is so cute and so funny. Yep. Star. So many scenes I had sort of forgotten about, like E.T. drinking a Coors and a bathrobe, like sort of tottering around. Yeah. Really, really made me laugh. And it's just, it's one of my favorite things. One of my favorite happenings in Los Angeles through the summer. It sort of ends around Halloween. They always do some scary movies then. So I was almost not going to go. And then I had four other friends who were like, we're going. And I was like, man, I'm going. And it was great. The, it does, in the rewatch of E.T., feels like it was maybe a little easy to sneak E.T. out of the lab in the end. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Seems like, like looking back, I kind of remember them being, had them having a better plan than just like, let's just like throw a sheet over them. Yeah. Then there's like, there's people like right. on their tail. And then there's a huge gap of time where the sort of E.T.'s ship is coming to get them. And it's like, those people were right there. They were right there, yeah. But again, who am I to criticize E.T.? Yeah. So that was really fun. And then, yeah, it was Memorial Day, so barbecue over at Robbie Benedict's. That was fun. Yeah, we had a good Memorial Day as well. Well, this is fantastic. Tatiana Maslany is our guest today. She's with The Light. She's got a new show, Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, over on Apple. You can check out. I will say, in the song, there is an obvious rhyme that I intentionally don't visit. Interesting. So you'll hear, I'm setting up to something, and it would involve Tatiana Maslany. Tatiana Maslany. Tatiana Maslany. Lonnie's mother, and I didn't feel like going there. So you'll hear it in the song, but I, yeah. I knew, I know it's there, and I intentionally backed off. Because where is she from? Well, you'll have to listen to the episode. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But now I'm starting to sniff out what might have happened here. Yeah, yeah. All right. Love you, Pashi. It's been too long. Love you too, Sufi. I know. Enjoy the episode, everybody. The Myers Brothers, family trips with the Myers Brothers, here we go. Hi. Hello. Hello. How are you? I'm good. How are both of you guys doing? We're very, very good. We're very well. Okay. I feel like probably because I was introduced, you in Orphan Black, it's very exciting to see what you're going to look like every time I see you. Right. Who is she? Yeah. What's her hair going to be? From the minute I first met you, I knew you were capable of being like 10 different people. That's only the wigs. That's all wigs. I know. I know. You're the one person. If not the wigs, same guy underneath. It's really, it's like Orphan Black and the Americans are shows that are so wiggy. So wiggy. Yeah. So wig forward. I love, honestly, I love Orphan Black. I love the wig forward. I love the wig show. Yeah. What I liked about the, I don't know if you ever watched the Americans. What I liked is like, I feel like they also tried really hard to make sure the wigs looked like wigs looked in the 80s. Like the wigs weren't too good. Yeah. Like they're like, he's undercover. It was weird too. It just meant that people in the 80s were like, I got a new, I just met a new guy. Weird hair. Anyway, he wants the, he wants the microfilm. Hair made of straw. Yeah. But I don't know. I trust him. I trust him. Yeah, something about him and his slippery little accent. Tell me how you pronounce your hometown. Regina. Okay, gotcha. It's what you, what you wish it were. I didn't want to take a big swing. That was my instinct, but I didn't want to take a big, so you're from Regina, which is, seems like the middle of nowhere. Yeah. It's, I describe it lovingly as the place that people pass through to go elsewhere. Yeah. So you kind of like. Blast through, if you're driving across country, you're going to, you, you're probably going to blast through. And you'll stop in Regina, maybe. Yeah. What are the, what are the big towns on either side that might, you might actually stop at? I mean, it could be hundreds of miles away. Oh yeah. Yeah. It's like six hours. It's like seven hours. You're going to stop probably Calgary, Edmonton or Banff if you're nasty. Yeah. And then keep going across to probably Winnipeg. Which is like a bigger, a bigger Regina. Winnipeg has been, based on our, some listener feedback, Winnipeg has gotten treated a little dirty on our podcast. You know, a lot of actors, well, a lot of actors are shooting up in Winnipeg and they've kind of given some feedback, but this might be helpful to know that there is a place where less is going on. Oh, for sure. Are you guys collecting this feedback and bringing it somewhere to someone who needs Well, no, when people, I feel like when, when people from Winnipeg heard that, they're like, heard that like, maybe they didn't have great restaurants. They were like, we do. They were mad. They said there's actually a thriving restaurant scene. I'm going to fight for them only because it's the big city in my, in my opinion. Yeah. Gotcha. I mean, big Regina is what they're called. Big Regina. Put that on the t-shirt. There, I have so many things to tell you about that, about that town, but Winnipeg has great food. Great. In my experience, laser. Tag. Cause I was 15 and I spent a lot of time there and great improv, really good improv. Oh, interesting. Like very good improv, very good long form. You, uh, I know you have a deep improv roots. Did you first discover it in Winnipeg? Like where were you when you got the bug that you were like, oh, cause I think Josh and I had never, uh, saw it until we went to college. Right? No, I, I was doing it at age eight in French. Oh my God. And was that in Regina? It was in Regina, which is like, okay, so there's such great things about this city. If like children are being taught French improv, which is like a very different kind of improv. It's like within the, you have to, it's like kind of like theater sports. Okay. Yeah. So there's a lot of like rules. And are there a lot of French speakers in Regina? Um, I don't know if it's like markedly more than anywhere else in the country, but, but, but there's definitely like, we have like French immersion where you guys don't have any immersion other than English. Yeah. Well, our mother was a French teacher. So that's really, yeah. Yeah. Junior high French. Oh, wow. Not an immersion, not immersion. And we can't speak French. Yeah. She's not the greatest. I was like, Josh is down the road to a very disappointing outcome. I like that. It was, she's not the greatest. Even though you guys. Even though you guys didn't learn French. It's like, mom sucked. Proof's in the pudding, Tatiana. Right. If she'd been a more compelling teacher, maybe you would have learned. My son just took his first French class. And this like speaks to like the era we're living in, which is like, so, I mean, it was very much French or Spanish for us. And his, he has nine weeks of each. It's like Mandarin, Arabic, and now French. So he had his first French class and he wanted to call mom last night, Josh. He really wanted to like talk to her. And he was most excited because his name is Ash. A S H E. And he told, uh, he told her mom that, uh, his French name is H and we're like, what? And then it was, the reason is that you say H is Ash. Right. And he's like, so my French name is H. I'm like, I don't think that's how it works. This whole thing's giving me a headache. Just pick a name. Just be Serge. It's so kid logic. Yeah. I love that. Um, so you were, you were immersed in French and you, you spoke a lot of languages growing up, correct? I did. I learned German when I was a teeny weeny baby. I think I knew it before I knew English is, is my mom's, uh, take on that story. Um, French, French through elementary school, quit it in high school because I was like, that someone told me I couldn't do drama if I was in French, which was a lie. And then I gave up my chance at doing, having a French like certificate. Yeah. I really screwed the pooch on that. Who? Looking back. Do you feel like a little bit of blame is on yourself for whoever you listened to? Like who told you this obviously fake thing? I'm not gonna throw her under the bus, but we're not friends anymore. I'll say that much. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's because it's because she screwed me over willingly. It was a teenage girl. Yeah. It was a teenage girl who I know who had no right to give advice and I had no right to take it. To take it. Right. You had no, yeah, you had no obligation to take it. No. And I wasn't even like, right. I wasn't even like reverent of her. I don't know what, I was like, oh, you told me one thing once, so it must be true, which I feel like is, is again, kid logic. So what was your, how did your family end up? How did your parents end up in Regina? Were they from there? They, they were born there, but my grandparents immigrated from Germany, Ukraine and Romania. Gotcha. Yeah. To, I always. Even though I've heard the story a thousand times, I'm just like, why there? But it's always just like, they knew one guy who had a job. And so they were like, well, there's, there's the, there's like the solidity that I need to travel across the world. What was the job? Do you know? My OPA, I think it was building, I think it was house building, which is what he ended up doing for a living for till, till the very end of his life. Um, and then my grandfather. My grandfather was a carpenter who, or a woodworker who, I don't know if that was the job that he initially like moved there for. Um, but yeah, I know a little less about his history, but yeah, it's like, that's. It is fascinating to make that move and then end up. And then what is like, what is the landscape of Regina? Is it like, I'm picturing, and this might be how I picture everything, not mountainous in Canada. It's just like massive fields. where you can just see like the flattest land you can see forever. A hundred percent. It's that. And it's like, apparently in Regina, every tree was planted and every lake was dug. So it's a very like, it's like a town built because probably, I think there was like one guy who settled there and then they were like, well, now we have to build around, around this very special person, whoever it was. But, but yeah, it's a, it's a very strange flat place. Lots of like marshland, lots of field. As soon as you like get out of town, it's like, and when you're landing in, in Saskatchewan, it's like landing on the moon. It really, especially in the winter when it's, which is like 90% of the time, it's like a lunar, it looks lunar. Do you have like, is there a warm nostalgia that you have for like, you know, emerging from the clouds or whatever and seeing it below? Or is it like, oh, here we go again? No, it's, I have a lot of nostalgia for it and this sort of familiarity of it. And like the images I have from my childhood that now I look at and I'm like, oh, I thought that little, that hill was like massive. And now it's like this little, you know what I mean? It's yeah. It's like some of the, the, the sky is beautiful. The, the sort of expansive landscape. The openness of those fields is very almost like looking at this, like looking at space or like the ocean, like kind of overwhelming. I always had this thought like, oh, if they, if someone dropped me in the middle of one of those fields, I'd be, I would die. I had that thought a lot. So that's a, that's a fun nostalgia. It's a warm, it's a warm feeling. Oh, the dying field. Oh, I remember the dying field. Dying field. Did, uh, what would you guys do? It's two siblings, correct? Yeah. Daniel and Michael. And they're older or younger than you? Younger. Gotcha. I'm the one. How was that? How was having, did they show up pretty, pretty close to you? Uh, Daniel showed up three years into my life, which was annoying for me because I was, I was the only guy and I was very special and I absolutely, uh, bit him and, beat him up to show him who his boss. As, as you should. Yeah. As you must. You're obviously the oldest. Yeah, I'm the oldest. Obviously. Knowing. Kind of hurt. Obviously it's because you knew that you had to, that beating up a child was the thing to do. Obviously. Um, uh, I do, yes, I have working eyes. Uh, obviously. And then Michael came like 12 years, 12 years later. So I was, I'd already established myself. Wow. Yeah. I'd already established myself as a person, but yeah, he was a bonus. So you were, you were 15 when he was born. I was no. Oh, 12 years later than, than my birth. Everything's about me. Okay. I see. So, so I was 12. Yeah. Gotcha. Wow. Big old gap. Big old gap. Yeah. Uh, a great, uh, cause my brother Daniel and I were very into like making movies as kids and had like access to a, a fairly good, you know, a little camcorder and so Michael was like the subject of everything that we did. Oh, amazing. Yeah. That's great. Yeah. It was like, perfect. Hey, we're going to take a quick break and hear from some of our sponsors. Support comes from HIMS.

So what kind of vacations would you guys take when you have Regina as a base of your life? What do you do? Where do you go? Well, if you're, if you're going short, you go to Regina Beach for like a day trip, but you also go to, um, Banff was a big one for us. We also took trips all the way to Germany quite a few times because I had my, my great-grandma lived to be 101. Wow. And so we would go visit her. Yeah. And stay with her and stay with her. Where in Germany? A whole bunch of relatives. She was in Wiesbaden, which I think is, I don't know where it is. I think it's near, uh, Dürr-Körnerberg. You're right. No, I think that's true. I think it shares a train station. Yeah. Um, no, it was great. It was like a, it was such an amazing trip. I think the first time I went there, I was two and then seven. And then multiple times after that, um, we would go across with my Oma. We would take her and go see my Oma. Was that a trip that you would be excited to take? Was it like, Oh my God, we're going to go see, uh, the oldest woman I've ever met. The oldest woman on the planet. Yeah. Uh, yeah, it was like, it w I think at that time, like travel for me was like kind of super abstract. I know that there was like, um, like, like it was just the, the feeling of being in a different place. I just remember like Germany feeling like very, uh, forested and like lush and sort of, and the chocolate was amazing. And there was just like, and there were sticker stores and there were just like these little things that I like lodged in my brain and everyone, um, was trying to speak English and they were much better than we were at speaking German. And it was just like, yeah, it was a, it was, I love travel. At some point I got afraid of flying, but, but at that time I was super brave. A European sticker store. That's kind of the dream. Oh my God. Wooden stickers, stickers made of cork. Really? Guys, now how, as a child and buying a sticker when you were buying it, how much of it were you like, Oh my God, I'm so excited. I'm so excited to get a wooden sticker. And how much of you were like, Oh my God, I cannot wait to show my friends back home. Yes. I went somewhere, they sell wooden stickers. It was, it was definitely like the, the like, yeah, the status of getting a sticker that no one else is going to have. And then like the potential for trading it back home. Yeah. I'm like very happy, uh, that the sticker trade was still so robust when you were, uh, when you were there. It was huge. The market was, yeah, it had, it crashed in 2008. I thought I was. I thought I was at the end of the sticker bubble. No, no. I think, I feel like there's, there's some currency there again. I think we should bring them back since nothing, nothing means anything. We have a grown ass man friend who buys stickers every year for like a get together that we have. And it's, uh. Yeah. It's so frustrating. Yeah. But he spends like, he spends for real money. He was like, this sticker was $8. And you're like, what? Yeah. What are we doing? What are the stickers? Are they just. Disney stickers at this point? Or like, like, is it that? Or are they like. No, it's like, it's like very meme-y, I want to say. He has meme stickers, but there's still, my boy's got like a, a Marvel sticker book and just like put it. And it's like the first stickers we ever gave him and the last, cause they're still on their bunk bed. Like they just took them and like, and like just terrible layout. No, no rhyme or reason to it. You hate your children's aesthetic. You're just like. Yeah. I'm so glad you finished. I'm so glad you didn't finish. I really thought you were like, boy, you hate your children. I was like, oh boy, you really, you got eyes and ears. And then we, I want to, uh, all right. So you, uh, how many of you would, would the whole, uh, family go to Germany or was your youngest brother, uh, was that too, too early for him? No, when he, I mean, when he was, when he popped out, he came with us too. And he was very, uh. Uh, young. So I remember him like learning German very quickly as a sweet little guy, like read and learning to read. Um, and it was so fun having like, yeah, it was just like a little crew. It was like our little, little true. And you're speaking German the whole time. Yeah, kind of in a way that I'm like, wow, like kids brains are so adaptable. Um, I went to Germany recently and shot a film and I was like, oof, I thought I was good at this. Oh, right. And no one is speaking back to me in German. They're all like, yes, why do you want to? The film was in English, right? Like you weren't finding out, oof. Yeah. Like you weren't finding out on camera, like, oh, I overpromised. I did do one film in German, but I had like 12 lines, so I got to work them real hard. Oh, that's great. But yeah, no, this one was full. This was like American girl who can't speak other languages. Oh, perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Decidedly not. Um, what's a day? A day at Regina Beach, you go to, I'm going to make up the name. I think it was Butler's. I think that's false, but it was like an, uh, fish and chip shop, like classic style. I feel like so many things that like got outdated in other bigger cities kind of like stuck in, in Saskatchewan. So there was this great fish and chip shop that had like a really good, like soft serve ice cream as well. Um, and you go and you stand up. Uh, on the edge of the water and you see a little dead goldfish in the water, or you get on water skis and you get ripped around, uh, ripped around the lake. Yeah. Um, on water skis. My, my mom was a huge water skier. I think my dad did too, but we did as well. It sounds like, I will say like, it sounds like a line from like a Canadian teen drama. Like we're going to Regina Beach, meet us at Butler's. Like I feel like you asked Chad. Chad GPT to write a Canadian teen drama. Yeah. That's where the cool teens go. They're real tough teens. Make it all the way out there. Yeah. So that, it seems like everywhere. So that again, how long is the drive for you guys to get to Regina Beach? And is Regina Beach a beach on a man dug lake? I think it's a real lake. I think that is like, that's like one of the draws and people had like cottages and blah, blah, blah, blah. Like we never did, but. Do you think the first time someone saw that lake, they were like, the fuck did we dig all those holes? We just had to come. Into this like gorgeous valley too. Like it's like so beautiful. Trees everywhere. I'm like, what the hell are we doing over in that like marshland? That's when they realized the first guy who came here was like, finally, somewhere without trees or water. And his name was Butler. And he deep fried goldfish. Yeah. Yeah. The dead goldfish were just not, not taken care of. I think somebody just, I just, that was one of my memories. Like walking barefoot and being like, there's a dead goldfish. I think someone had just dumped them in there. Yeah. And that's just been, that's been implanted in memory. Now that's your selling. You're like, have you ever been to Butler's? You're like, oh yeah, that fish graveyard. And they're like, what are you talking about? She saw one dead fish. One dead fish is the name of that teen drama. And then Banff. I've like wanted to go to Banff. I know there's a film festival at Banff. I feel like it's a. Yes. And so is Banff skiing? Banff is skiing. Banff is. Hiking Banff is like moose walking down the street. Banff is. Yeah. It's like very, very magical. I think it's like. Like ski town vibe. Like classic. Oh yeah. Like, like chalet type vibe. Mm-hmm. Like almost disgustingly so. Is it a train from Vancouver to Banff? I feel like everybody's like, take that train. Oh, probably. Is this the one that's like clear? And you can see out. Yeah. I think you can take that one across the whole country. Yeah. There's definitely train stuff going on. In Banff. Yeah. For sure. Trains, miniature and otherwise. Yeah. And gondolas. And I remember I was once. We were walking with my family in Banff. We were like big walkers. Big hikers, big walkers, big bike cyclists. That was like always what we did. And I was like really dragging. I was 16 and I was like complaining the whole time. My parents were like, this is not like you. Like, just keep walking. That night I got. An insane fever and I had walking pneumonia. Oh, wow. Oh, you actually were doing the walking part. I was doing the walking part of the. Not a lot of people do the whole walking with the walking. No, you got to do it. You got to do it to really draw the fever out. Yeah. So would you go on like full day hikes? Were you guys like packed up and would you camp or would you get a cabin? What was your sort of accommodations? Oh, no, we never camped. I think the first time I camped, I was like 25 and it was like, oh, I'm going to camp. I was at like a music festival and it was very, very, there was like a coffee bar, right? Right, right, right. Like, it was very nice. No, we never camped. We would, we would, it was very like, I think food was more important to us than anything. So like, yes, a beautiful walk, but you got to finish it with an insane meal somewhere. And you got to be in civilization. You got to, we were also very allergic to everything, so you can't stay out. The whole, the whole family? All the kids. Really? You guys were all allergic? Oh, yeah. What was the, for your parents, what was the nightmare allergy where they were like, oh, no, we went somewhere with X? You mean that, that it like happened? That something bad happened? Or like, what were you guys most allergic to that? Oh, Michael's most allergic to peanuts. And at one point we were in Budapest. He was, they came out to visit me in Budapest when I was filming. And he ate something in a market and he had to, he had to throw that up. Yeah. Well, that, I mean, it's better that it's like, hey, throw this up versus we got to race him to the hospital and this is EpiPen stuff. Correct. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. But we were very sickly children. That's not, again, this is not the stereotype of Iowa too. I was a sickly kid. But like, not the stereotype. Like Canadians, we get a, you know, you're supposed to be robust stock. Yeah, for sure. Sure. No, I know. No, I wear long underwear like most of the times of the year because I'm cold all the time in L.A., in L.A. Did when you were going on hikes and things, your significantly younger brother, Michael, was he sort of in a pack on someone's back or was he is it just like keep up, pal? I was like, keep up, buddy, or like drag the stroller into like ridiculous situations. Like, yeah, at all costs, the walk must happen. But yeah, he was pretty he was like pretty quick to to take on, you know, the the the family thing. But we also had this great burly for bike rides. Burly. Do you know what a burly is? No. What's a burly? It's the back. It's like the little back compartment thing that like has wheels and it's attached to a bike. Yeah. And that so Daniel and I would be in that when we were two when we were little. And then Mikey, that became Mikey's spot when we could all go on bike rides. Were your parents like kind of physical, active people? Unreal. Unreal. They still constantly were like wondering, like, what went wrong with their three kids? Why did we produce three artists? And you guys are like, is there a burly for cross-country skiing? Oh, yeah. They would. My dad would drag us in on the sled behind him when he was cross-country skiing. Wow. Hard to do. I mean, like, I mean, look, I I'm of the mind that if you're already cross-country skiing, something's gone terribly wrong. If you're also have been like pulling somebody. I know. I know. I've tried cross-country skiing for the first time maybe six years ago and was like, oh, this is not what it looked like when I was a kid. And like kind of dragging my body. Like, I remember like sort of hanging off just to like. Yeah. You know, have have a little laugh dragging my little weighted body, you know, and Daniel, too, like just making it horrible. Did you did you downhill ski growing up? Do you like it still? I love it. I love it so much. I only once snowboarded and I ended up spraining both of my wrists fell back on them. Yeah. Oh, with the same the same fall. Wow. There's something impressive about that. From Tatyana. No. Hitting both of them at the same time with enough force to sprain him is really seems like almost a statistical improbability. It was horrible. And I laid on the hill. My teacher had abandoned me. I laid on the hill because also when you're learning to ski in Saskatchewan or snowboard, it's it's valleys that are icy and that are because the wind is so intense. So everything ices over. It's very intense skiing. It's not like. Beautiful sort of like powdery movement. You're like. So I like really biffed it. I fell on both wrists. I was like weeping on the ground. I remember a kid being like and like snow plowing me. And I was just like, ah. And then my brother Daniel Tatyana made a hand gesture for what it looked like when this kid came over. And if you had seen it, it would not have been helpful. Well, I literally he came. He did the monster mash like the hand gesture. He did the mash. He did the monster mash. It was a graveyard smash. No, he he was like very he was a cool like five year old kid who like totally humiliated me. It's very I mean, I will say skiing now. Nothing's worse than when like I mean, again, so pretty much everybody in the slopes is younger than me now. Like when they like zip by you. Or when you fall and they come over and ask what's wrong. You're like, don't look at me. Like nothing. Nothing. I live here. I live here. Did you? How long was the drive to Banff? The Banff drive was like seven hours, I think. And oh, wow. That's a drive. How were your parents as like we're all in the car together? Oh, the best. I just remember tunes. We would listen to tunes. Listen to CBT radio. Were you where you had did you have a collective agreement on tunes like as a family where you like these are this is what we'll all listen to. I think like later in life, we started like using the aux cable and like enforcing our tunes. But no, it was like kind of it was background. It wasn't. It's like more. I have associations of certain songs with my parents than I do. Like, oh, we knew what that song was. It's more. Oh, that was Hotel California. Or like, you know, but I do have this. The one thing I do remember about road trips was if it was raining, was watching. This is gonna be such such an interesting story. You guys watching raindrops go on their little journey and. Oh, I did that all the time. And yeah. And you watch them form new paths. Yeah. You know what? I kind of can't believe that you're the first person who said this based on how many road trip guests we've had. Because I think that I think almost everybody we've ever talked to has done that. And you're the first one who had the courage to admit. Honestly, thank you. Yeah. Thanks for the platform to talk about. But we have had guests talk about like I would look out and imagine myself like just running over like the landscape. Yeah. Like that kind of stuff. And there were so many. We grew up in New Hampshire and there were so many like streams that would run alongside. And you just like follow those streams and imagine you were out there on a boat. And like how far could you go? And totally the sort of the the close up nature, almost video game nature of a raindrop against the window. Trying to make its its journey is a great, great activity. Yeah. It had like a personality. It like you could feel the stress of the drop or like because they were always kind of shaking. Yeah. I also. Oh, go ahead. Well, I was just going to say like to Josh's point about like. I will do that now, too. Right. Like I'll watch a stream like a New England stream if we're driving a car around. And I have to constantly remind myself. Remember, if you were in a boat in that stream right now, you would not be as comfortable as you are in this car. So like don't like your mind thinks you're in a boat, but you feel as nice as you feel now. But you would actually be like a little bit wet and a little bit cold. Yes. Just let it be a dream. Let it be. Just let the fantasy stay that. Yeah. If you were in the stream that was alongside sort of, you know, the Kankamongus Highway, let's say, then you'd look at those cars and be like, gosh, we could just be in one of those cars right now. Yeah. That's right. And totally flip it. Support comes from Mint Mobile. Hey, Bajie. Hey, Sufi. When people hear that Mint Mobile plans are only $15 a month, a lot of people wonder what's the catch.

I like to feel like I'm traveling, and I don't know, and I'm amongst the locals. Oh, the Marais. And if you haven't been to the Marais, yeah, I don't even know how to describe it to you. What's that? La Marais. Ah. Or Le Marais. One of those. You've been. You've been. You're a me. It's friend, Pashi. Oh, you're a me. Laissez-moi. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Laissez-moi. A group of a me. Tout laissez-moi. Did you, you mentioned your family going to Budapest. Did, have they taken advantage of your sort of world travelers and, and come and seen you? Do your parents like to come visit? Yeah. They really, they really do. They love, like if I'm filming in Vancouver or Toronto or whatever, they'll come. They came to Budapest. They came to, when I was filming, I was like 17. At one point, you know, they had to be there because I was a kid still. So filming in Edmonton or whatever. But yeah, they'll, they came to Iqaluit when I filmed up in Iqaluit. They came for the screening up there. Pardon me. Where is it? Where is Iqaluit? Iqaluit. Iqaluit is in Nunavut, which is like the northernmost province in Canada. And it's totally Arctic. It's unbelievable. Very lunar, very light. What did you shoot in Iqaluit? I shot a film called Two Lovers and a Bear. Okay. Guess who I played? Bear, bear, bear, bear. Bear, bear, bear. Two Lovers in a Bear. Oh, okay. Gotcha. Yeah. So I also played the lovers. It was like a really strange film, very dark and surreal and got to film out there for like a month and a half. Wow. And my parents did come visit. Yeah. And did they see that just as like one, we're never going to have a better opportunity to go check this place out? A hundred percent. Cause you have to take like three planes to get there. And, or you like, there's certain times of the year when the, uh, the water is so iced over. You can, they drive. It's like big, like, uh, what do they call it? Semis. Yeah. Semis with like stuff up, but then in the summer months you can't. And so you have to fly like a million. So there's like one tomato sometimes, or like, it's very. Are you the kind of person, like when you get offered a job like that, is the fact that it's in a Calloway, uh, make you more or less likely to take the part? Do you like the fact that it can afford you the chance to go someplace you never would have gone? Yeah, totally. I think more so when I was younger. I feel like now I'm getting so, uh, rigid in my dotage. It's the best, right? Like you just get old and you're like, or stay here. Well, that's kind of nice. I know this place already. I know what coffee shops I like. Yeah. I went to the store. They had two tomatoes. Right. So that's better. Yeah. That is better. Yeah. You don't have to fight someone. That's right. I do like traveling. I was just in New Orleans for the first time. I'd never been there. I'd never been there filming a show or a movie. And yeah, when I'm somewhere new, I like can't stop moving because I want to see everything. And I have, um, I've worked in New Orleans and I find that it's, uh, you have a tendency to go pretty hard in New Orleans just because that's what you've heard you should do. Um, does that, was that what happened? Yeah. I felt like I couldn't sleep just because there was like so many people awake all the time. Right. You kind of can't trust. You can't trust it. Yeah. You're like, but there's something cool happening. Yeah. Um, but, uh, I, I, I don't drink or anything, but I certainly do eat and I fully, like I fully gained eight pounds or something. Yeah. Just like, just like trying everything and wanting to be. Yeah. Yeah. It does seem like a place where everything they recommend is like heading you down the eight pound path. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Got to get those beignets. How many beignets have you had? How many beignets have you had today? Multi, multi beignets. Different. Got to try them all from all places. I, that's why I'm so excited to start. I introduced low boys, which are a low calorie po' boys. Oh, low boys. Low boys, like, uh, ad is just like. Everybody's sad. I get a sad face. Aw. Yeah. They wouldn't even, and by the way, the ad, they were supposed to be happy, but we couldn't get any actors who, they all just looked sad. It's not going great. It's not going great over at low boys. They were happy when they showed up, and then you gave them a low boy, and then they just couldn't wipe that frown off their face. I was like, can you tell the difference? And they all started to just cry. Low boy feels like it's like a bent, like a little soggy on the sides. Yeah. You hold it in the middle and it just both ends dive down. Yeah. Um, real quick on your, uh, on our research that we have on you, it said you went to the German, ancient Greek philosophy, psychology, and film, and then dropped out after half a semester. Do you think you tried to study too many complex things? I think, uh, I think I did, but also that was literally my curriculum. Like the way you say it, it sounds like, whoa, I, I tried all of these different like fields, but I was just taking, those are literally the classes I took. Like those are like the five classes. Right. It took you, you quit after one semester, but it took you a whole second semester to tell all your teachers you were leaving. Yeah. Cause I was so humiliated. There were so many of them. There were so many. So many teachers. No, I just remember I was doing like, yeah, I, I think everything I took, what was ancient Greek about guys? Why did I do that one? That's, that one is a real left fielder, but everything I did always ended up being like, how could I use this for a character? How could this be something I could draw on for understanding people better or whatever? It was all, it was all in that vein. Did you have a moment? Like, was the reason you left or I'm like, I don't think my future is in Regina or in this school. And I'm going to, it was that when you, did you know, know you're going to be an actor at that point? I had been acting since I was nine, but I got a job in Toronto and it was like, sorry guys. And it was in, I was in creative writing at university and I was failing it. And then I was like, oh, I have to quit this class. And the teacher was like, what are you doing? I'm like, I'm an actor. And he's like, oh yeah, what's the part? I'm like, she's a writer. And he was like, oh, he was really judgmental. And then I went off and he's like, can I talk to, can you set up a phone call with me? She's not right for it. I feel like it is very interesting. Like with that conversation, you have to give to somebody like at a job or at school when you're like, you actually got a professional acting job. Cause it definitely sounds like you're not telling the truth. It's like, you're failing and it's like, I know, but I got news. I got, I'm going to be in a TV show. I'm moving. I'm like, whatever. Sorry. Bye. Yeah. Yeah. It's only fake. It's only fake. And then was that, it was the first time, had you visited Toronto? Was that a place you guys would go for vacations or did you get there for the first time for work? I think the first time I went there was for like, um, uh, something to do. do with this movie I did when I was 17 called called ginger snaps on leash i don't know why we went to toronto maybe some premiere or something um but that was the first time i was in toronto and then other than that i hadn't we we never really went there it wasn't really like it was it's a jaunt from from saskatchewan did you ever come to the states oh boy yes for improv we we crossed the border from vancouver down to bellingham there was a huge issue with uh improv smugglers actually well because here's the thing when i did that trip i was going down um to bellingham with these two older improv guys who both had like beards and were just like like improv dudes and i was believable your story is believable so far yeah so far but i looked i looked 12 i looked 10 or 12 for most of my life until like maybe last year and now i've got little wrinkles but like i always look like a little kid and they had me in the back on this truck sitting in one of those side seats wearing a i was wearing a regina children's festival t-shirt and as we were passing the border they were like are you okay to me in the back the guy was like are you okay i was like yeah like i'm going to do improv with these guys so i will say like if you were watching like a really like like pitch black drama about two kidnappers you would not be able to recover if at one point he's like now remember if anybody asks we're improvisers you're like no i don't i'm not scared anymore it's the funniest cover story real feat though if you could do that if daniel day lewis could like play that role and make it make it actually like harrowing well the other fun thing would be if there's like then all right now obviously the three of us are going to make this show but uh right so it's like they and then there's a cop there's a border guard who he's taking some improv classes so the way he gets all three of them out of the car right and neither of the guys like they keep like turning down his initiations like none of them yes and he he goes like zip and they don't yeah i don't know what to do right they're like i wonder how long daniel day lewis would have to take improv classes before he'd be willing to shoot that movie yeah you guys think we should wait till he agrees to do it imagine how good he would be at improv uh after he had gone through his full training oh yeah his his like move over ben schwartz yeah it's ben and well i think you'd give him he'd walk into a scene and you would like you know uh you would endow him as somebody he'd be like oh uh professor stevens i'm so excited to take your history class and then he'd be like oh i'm so excited to take your history class and then he'd be like oh i'm like i'll be right back and then he'd like three months later he'd come back right because he'd like have to do the research he'd have to read five books about yeah and then somebody would like edit the scene and he'd be like is that him what happened there that was him being like realizing like oh no i put all that work in and this is just was like for like a four minute scene and we didn't get that many laughs and no one even filmed it did you when was the last time you were like actively improvising or are you still actively i mean i use it uh in work all the time but um but but actively i think i did i did like um ass cat back in la like less than a year ago fantastic do you still love it because i uh josh and i both improvisers i love it very much i don't know if i ever want to do it again due to how stressful i find something i said totally something changed and it became like like you i always had um stage fright and i still still do like my body really really reacts before i go on stage um and then the like high of doing the show and coming off is always so much fun but but it stopped it started costing more than it was yeah it was giving back but it's sort of like i imagine it's like you're german like there was time when your german was great and then you go back to germany and you're like oh it's not as sharp and it's the same with improv um there's a time when you wouldn't think about it at all you'd be like yeah i'll go you you got a slot in a show tonight good great i'm sharp and i'm ready and now if someone were to say that it'd be like okay like uh yeah no i'll i'll do it um but i watch my friends my friends who like have continued to do improv and are like such incredible improvisers like i watch them and i'm like oh there's no way in hell they're operating on like you know things that are going on and i'm like oh there's no way in hell they're operating on like you know 30 years of having done it consistently yeah and they're just so adept and so alive and present it's like i still like get that rush watching it though i remember uh years ago the famous swimmer mark spitz like tried to have a comeback and it was like eight years after his last olympics it wasn't like he was like you know he wasn't 60 years old he just like take and it was like so exciting and it was like oh my god mark spitz is going to be in the olympics and the first race you were like oh he's not going to be in the olympics you're like oh he still he still looks like a swimmer and he still swims really fast it's just like you never want to get in a pool with people who were like at like swimming today and that's how i feel about improv also every other swimmer at that point had shaved their mustaches off yeah and he had just slowed him down oh man yeah like spitsy you gotta shave the mustache he's like i can't do it baby this is me spitsy that is a good spits impression i don't want you to think i'm just doing that voice because is that actually what spits sounds like is like hey you want to see my five gold medals spitsy come on over to spitsy's house in his medal he's smoking a cigar inside of one of his medals um oh first of all you're working with a great jake johnson who's wonderful and david gordon green who's the best yeah oh man yeah yeah i worked with that dude he's so funny yeah have you worked like what's what's your relationship with him have you worked with him i did he directed a pilot that i was in and then he was an executive producer for the show red oaks and he's like he was just off camera yeah yeah yeah and it's esmer um yeah he was off camera just like throwing out lines and so funny like yeah he's an improviser but not in front of the camera he's a director who is like as fast and as sharp as the fastest improvisers but he's just giving other people great lines to say yeah um and he's so yeah so sharp and so funny yeah and like absurd like he'll i even when we were doing we were filming the first time i worked with him was on stronger which was like the the marathon boston marathon bombing movie like not not like a laugh riot by any means but because it was him he would like there'd be like an a nothing scene where i'm like sitting at a diner like ordering something and he would get the woman who was like waiting on me and he to say something like totally absurd like a nonsense sentence just to like get me to kind of wake up and be like curious about her you know what i mean like it's like he sort of does things that like elicit a strange human response from you that whether
