is tuned In with Jim Cummings.
Today we have Otis Rushka that Jack Brazier.

6
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:27.920
But thanks for coming out to play
this morning. All right, you're

7
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:30.879
having thank you, thank you,
thank you. We're here a beautiful Salt

8
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:36.479
Lake city for another yet another conventional
con yep, and uh we're just here

9
00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:41.280
being unconventional. That's what we do
best. It is formula. Obviously you've

10
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:44.520
got this to do today. Well, I just turned twenty, so there's

11
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:48.359
probably a few in my lifetime that
I got ahead my next hills. I've

12
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:54.600
been writing a lot of screenplays and
working on a few right now that I'm

13
00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:57.439
very passionate about. I'm not gonna
get into too much detail. Once I

14
00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:59.520
started on the restor you don't want
to jinx it. I don't want to

15
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:02.039
drink anything. Oh gosh, yeah, that would be that would be a

16
00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:07.159
terrible thing. Thank you, fake
bamboo something just in case that's real.

17
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:14.719
Yeah, but lots of writing,
lots are just mental exercise, trying to

18
00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:21.120
be as creative as possible and productive
despite this strike and all that. But

19
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:23.640
I'm also I'm living in Nashville and
I'm playing lots of music and that's been

20
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:29.799
a great creative vice and super inspired. Well, you can just walk down

21
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:36.040
the street in Nashville and it's music's
coming up, the music sei Yeah,

22
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:40.680
yeah, yeah, man, that's
the old wazoo joke. I used to

23
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:44.640
play wazoo in high school anyway.
But uh yeah, well that's got to

24
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:48.439
be a great place for you,
man, very fertile, totally fertile,

25
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:52.439
yeah, supple land, you know, you know well that too, but

26
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:57.079
mentally and spiritually without yes, yeah, Oh my goodness, it's amazing.

27
00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:00.920
It's it's such a it's it's so
strange the difference that waking up in the

28
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:06.120
trees and waking up in nature can
do to somebody. I've like, I

29
00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:08.199
wake up and I feel I don't
really like using the word kid, I

30
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:10.560
wake up and I feel so peaceful, all right, I saw a peace.

31
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:19.599
I feel so unaffected, like uh
not like contrived. But where I'm

32
00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:22.319
at you know what I mean,
And that's a really nice thing. It

33
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:25.159
kind of just feels like a great
foundation. And maybe it is something about

34
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:29.199
the land or the neutrality or something. I don't know. I just really

35
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:31.159
dig that place. Yeah. Good
for you, man, Yeah I like

36
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:37.159
it too. We're thinking of moving
somewhere like that or maybe there. Do

37
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:39.759
you have any houses for rent in
your neighborhood? I got four? I

38
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:43.800
think. Okay, well, yeah, to check his watch, it's not

39
00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:49.599
wearing and that is from our party
last night. I see you're still there.

40
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:53.759
You get it off? I nodded
off. Oh, like a like

41
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:59.879
a rabbit dog, feral beast.
Yes, that's exactly well. I feel

42
00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:02.199
like a feral beast this morning.
Hi. Everybody would just Sayaz is a

43
00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:08.960
feral beast? Oh, I would
tas very feral definitely, Like God,

44
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:13.479
you're good, Oh man, I
could I can easily do Taz at this

45
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:15.599
time of day. That's a new
one for you. Yeah, that's a

46
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:17.759
new one for me. Yeah.
He's the anti pool. Yeah you know.

47
00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:23.360
But but I'm just glad you're here. Man, This is great,

48
00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:28.360
This is great. Did you grow
up watching Disney Big Time? Yeah?

49
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:34.439
What was your favorite show? Third
show. I don't know, I've heard

50
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:37.960
show. I mean watching We Need
the Pooh, the Huffle Up Halloween just

51
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:39.199
because of your hero and brain.
And that was one of my favorite movies

52
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:42.479
that I watched that back to back
to back to back to back. The

53
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.360
candy looks so good in that movie. And I'm my mom used to read

54
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:49.400
me all these Winny of the Pooh
books and that's saint and stuff, and

55
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.840
I loved I love that stuff.
I also watched a lot for some reason.

56
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:58.520
My dad used to put on a
lot of mash and happy Days and

57
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.199
cheers and uh oh yeah sure,
Family Ties. I was. I talked

58
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:05.120
to briefly, super duper briefly Michael
J. Fox, and I said,

59
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:09.520
uh, I think all I said
was I loved you and Family Ties Alex

60
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:13.439
P. Keaton And then he was
like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah

61
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:17.639
that was a pretty good. That
was a really good Michael. Yeah,

62
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:26.639
yeah, very sincere, yeah yeah, sincerity, yes, yes, his

63
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:30.240
lack of contact and so, how
many of the conventions are you doing these

64
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:36.480
days speak of him? I don't
know, maybe do you four or four

65
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:42.600
a year? I don't know,
it differs. Yeah, I've been doing

66
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:45.680
more of them recently, as well
might as well, right, I got

67
00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:47.360
nother Yeah, but I have fun
at these things. I noticed that that

68
00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:51.639
although after like the weekend, I'm
kind of drained and went out, I

69
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.600
also feel super duper fulfilled. Like
m hm, it's such a meaningful it's

70
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.800
such meaningful work. And I don't
want to sound like a a privileged dude.

71
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:05.560
No, no, go ahead,
but I love acting. I love

72
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:10.480
any self expression, whether it's music
or playing dress up and putting on a

73
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.439
voice or doing whatever it is.
That's so, that's like, that's why

74
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:15.839
I think I'm here on this planet
for a big part of it. But

75
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:23.079
then to get to meet these people
and here there their opinions and their how

76
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:26.199
they were moved in their aspects and
their stories and and and and then you

77
00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:29.600
understand, like wow, so so
much individuality in each of these people are

78
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.680
such a valuable asset to this world. And there's just so there's so much

79
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:39.360
sweetness and so much honesty here.
And I walk away and I'm like,

80
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:41.720
man, this is that's like the
cherry on how that's the icing on the

81
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.399
cake, because I mean it's kind
of like it's kind of like an applause,

82
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.560
like you if you've done theater.
It's like we're we're doing this because

83
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:48.879
I mean, at least for me, like I'm doing this almost selfishly because

84
00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:51.600
I need It's like a compulsion.
I need to. I love to play

85
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:55.199
pretend. And if I'm not playing
pretend on a stage, which is like

86
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:59.920
the appropriate format for it, then
I'll probably be doing something and freaking people

87
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:09.720
out and getting in trouble. But
exactly, I would never. But no,

88
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:13.839
it's great. The validation is nice. It's nice. How old,

89
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:16.000
I agree? How old were you
when you realize like this was your passion?

90
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:20.199
Being creative was your passion? I
don't know when. I still don't

91
00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:23.319
know if i've packed you well,
I know for a fact, I don't

92
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:27.920
know when that age was, when
that actual moment was that, like you

93
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:30.839
didn't have a light bulb moment,
so to speak. Oh you know what,

94
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:32.920
No, I think I I think
it was probably when I was like

95
00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:38.040
ten years old and I played Gavroche
and lay miss or. There was a

96
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:40.600
time when I played reped Heavy and
Fiddler on the Roof when I was a

97
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:43.839
kid, and I had to memorize
all those and like it's not easy.

98
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:47.319
How old were you when you were? Yeah, I was really young,

99
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:51.040
like shot like a jokingly young.
Okay, yeah, like sardonically young.

100
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:57.319
And I was like maybe nine or
something. And I remember I walked to

101
00:06:57.360 --> 00:06:59.879
the audience and it was amazing.
And then it goes into tradition. That's

102
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:02.560
it starts tradition, and that was
awesome. And I remember I heard my

103
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:06.319
mom laugh in the spotlight wentunk like
right then when it goes on tradition,

104
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:09.680
and then I was like, oh
my god, I heard my mom laugh.

105
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:13.240
I heard the director of the theater
the play laugh. If I can

106
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:15.839
do this for the rest of my
life and I can make people happy,

107
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:18.800
that's what I've been trying to do. And maybe I've been doing it and

108
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:23.519
sort of let like not the hell's
theest ways like, uh, you know,

109
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:27.560
maybe I'll lie to make somebody feel
better about something. But it's just

110
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:30.199
so much I don't know, I
don't know. I found it very valid,

111
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:33.079
valuable. And I also this I
got in elementary school. I got

112
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:36.480
in trouble a lot. It was
always in the principal's office, you too,

113
00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:41.480
huh A big time? Oh yeah, I was just going around.

114
00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:46.079
I guess, jeez, thanks for
a long time. The same the same

115
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:47.759
thing, you know, something of
the water. I got to know system

116
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.360
Mary Agnes very well, did you? And I didn't want to. Yeah,

117
00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:55.480
I didn't want to. I knew
it way too well. Well,

118
00:07:55.480 --> 00:07:58.560
my problem was that all the nuns, like when I was coming up,

119
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:01.959
also taught my mom God Rest her
soul. And she was like Saint Sally.

120
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:07.639
She was, Yeah I cut and
I remember mother Brendan. She was

121
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.639
from Ireland, and uh, and
I was just a horrible kid. I

122
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:15.839
was just a terrible kid. And
she said, I can't believe you're Sally

123
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:18.879
while it's his boy, won't it
be me who's making a novena for your

124
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:22.399
poor mother who has to put up
with the likes of you? And so

125
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:26.040
I like, that's pretty good,
pretty good. Yeah, Okay, I

126
00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:33.440
must be on something, doing something
right here getting Jesus' attention through this fiendish

127
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:37.320
nun. Anyway, but memories,
wow, good old memory. It is

128
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:45.440
beautiful. But it worked out for
us both, Yeah, Bunky are paid

129
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:50.480
off. Yeah, which I mean
it's some of the most impressionable and I

130
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:56.919
mean obviously maybe this isn't obvious,
but like the most like what what do

131
00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:03.320
you call it, like fundamental developmental
use. I think they shape your adulthood

132
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:07.480
big time. Oh yeah, yeah
and absolutely yeah. And the cool thing

133
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:09.840
about it was that I found that
all the stuff I was getting in trouble

134
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:15.279
for at school, I was getting
praised almost like applauded for uh in theater

135
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:18.600
And that was like what WHOA if
I can so? If I can do

136
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:24.519
are amen? Amen? And yes, okay, I know. That was

137
00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:26.240
like, wow, I think that
breakthrough. I was like, if I

138
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:31.559
can do this and not harm people
and I make my mom made and upset

139
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.799
and worry that I'm gonna get kicked
out of school, Oh my god,

140
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:35.159
it's horrible to see her cry and
all this stuff. Yeah, if I

141
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:37.559
can do it and I can see
her cartiers of joy because I'm standing in

142
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:43.559
and living in trying to access my
big greatest potential and be the best whatever

143
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.720
it was, be my authentic self, Yeah, then I can make her

144
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:50.120
proud of them. Yeah. I
always said that I learned more in the

145
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.679
hallway being punished and told to stand
out there than I did on the other

146
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:56.799
side of the thing, sitting in
the classroom because I made this stupid mistake

147
00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:01.000
of God. What was that movie, Oh, Peggy Sue got married?

148
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:05.799
It was and there was a point
where I was actually stupid enough to tell

149
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:09.440
sister Ellen Rose speak, well,
we're really having a lot of nuns today.

150
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:13.720
But I told you know, I
was in algebra and I said,

151
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:16.320
uh, and I got an F
or whatever. And she says, what

152
00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:20.120
are you doing here? What the
hell? You're not the dumbest kid.

153
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:24.519
Uh. I was close, but
but she said, you can do better

154
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:26.840
than an F. And I go, you know, you're right. I

155
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:30.240
was shooting for a D minus.
She goes, what what do you mean

156
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:33.200
you were shooting for a D.
No, you can't shoot for a D

157
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:35.679
minus. You shoot for an A. And I go, no, no,

158
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:41.000
no, I know for a fact
that I will ever use algebra in

159
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:45.559
this universe, no matter I could
live to be five hundred years old,

160
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:48.399
never do one more algebra problem.
I'm shooting for the lowest grade you got.

161
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:52.720
She goes, oh, really,
you know, And then I could

162
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:56.200
see the horns coming, so I
just got f's. You know. I

163
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:58.360
should never have told her that,
but it reminded me that I think when

164
00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:01.840
Kathleen turned and was Peggy who got
married, but she went back and she

165
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.639
had a flashback or something, and
she was She goes, I happen to

166
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:07.320
know for a fact I'm never going
to use algebra, and I was thinking,

167
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:13.720
yes, me too, and oddly
enough I don't still. In fact,

168
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:16.879
I yesterday I spent the whole day
not doing algebra. Me too.

169
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:20.679
Wow, what are the odds you
had another thing we have in common?

170
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:28.720
Too painful about you still do algebra
in your day to day? No,

171
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.480
no, not so much. Yet, not so much. I try and

172
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:33.480
find the opportunity where I can.
What school subject do you think you apply

173
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:39.159
most in your day to day adult
Life's probably math, really, I would

174
00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:41.399
say math bro math. I don't
know if I learned it. Oh of

175
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:43.559
course I learned it, it's right, right, But it's also the math

176
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:46.639
I used. Kind of we're common. No, somebody asked me, hey,

177
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.240
Jack, where's the square sixty four
last night? And I said eight?

178
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:52.960
And they're like, whoa, he's
not, he's not actually that messed

179
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:56.240
up? Like that's I think an
easy one though, right, Yeah,

180
00:11:56.279 --> 00:12:01.600
that's an easy one. Yeah,
I actually knew that one classic party track

181
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:09.559
algebra. Yeah yeah, yeah.
Well we were talking about skateboarding last night,

182
00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:13.519
right, you skateboard? I love
it? Yeah? Yeah, that's

183
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:16.240
what are your passions? Right?
Big time, big time, big type

184
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:20.440
I do skaters, I don't even
know. Yeah, as well as I

185
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:22.360
used to. I used to just
be I went through a phase where I

186
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:24.159
was like, it doesn't what does
it matter if I get hurt, Like

187
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:28.120
what, Yeah, I just get
hurt, like I break my arm or

188
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:30.840
whatever. That's kind of funny as
long as I get it on camera,

189
00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:35.320
which is kind of not a great
way. As long as I get it

190
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.080
tape, then he's an actor.
I don't know if we mentioned that that's

191
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:41.600
kind of a burden. And then
I was like, Okay, you know

192
00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:43.919
what, I'm gonna start just skating
for me. And then I was like,

193
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:46.399
I'm gonna put them for that case. I'm just gonna do less impressive

194
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.720
stuff because I'm just gonna because you're
already impressed with yourself. Yeah, oh

195
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:54.960
my god, be un belief.
No, I don't know, but I

196
00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:56.000
guess I do love skatering. I
love the culture. I think it's a

197
00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:01.879
brilliant thing. And that's surfing as
well. And I love the board stuff.

198
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:05.320
Yeah. No, yeah, And
I didn't know that we had Sonny

199
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:11.279
Souljak on the podcast. Awesome.
Oh yeah, I mean it was great.

200
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:13.919
Yeah, it was crazy. I
love that you know, we've been

201
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.840
doing these and it's fun to learn
all these things about people that you know,

202
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:20.679
you know them, but you don't
know them. Yeah, and here

203
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.559
we are. Yeah, but it
was cool stuff. Yeah. Yeah.

204
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:28.879
I think that's one of the coolest
things about podcasting is like it's such a

205
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:33.799
collision of worlds. Like you'll see
people from such different walks of life,

206
00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:37.279
you know, come together and find
commonality, and you know, it's just

207
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:39.639
it's a conversation. You know,
it's like it's so casual and like you

208
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:43.559
can get to know somebody on a
podcast and like, you know, what

209
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:46.639
do William Shatner and Steve O have
in common? You know, Oh,

210
00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:50.279
that would be a really wack up
conversation. Yeah, Shatner was on Steve

211
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:56.200
O's Wild Ride. Yeah, you
talked to Pauli Shore. How do you

212
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:03.240
think that conversation would I don't know. I have the gymzoughs. Yeah.

213
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.879
But we actually did a movie together, uh, which is really a Hollywood

214
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:11.200
thing to say. And boy in
mind, never know a Hollywood guy.

215
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:13.679
No, he was in a Goofy
movie. Goofy movie. I love that

216
00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:15.720
movie. I love that movie too. Okay, that's another one I love

217
00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:18.799
and me so sad. God.
Yeah, if anybody makes me sad in

218
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:24.919
the Disney, uh, make him
as universe universe. Uh it's Goofy.

219
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:31.320
I'm always feeling real bad for Goofy
always, and like even in yeah Mickey's

220
00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:35.240
Christmas Carol. Oh yeah that one. Yeah, yeah, you run that

221
00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:37.960
one, I think, I think
so I love that. Not the old,

222
00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:39.840
old old one from that but the
one from like the eighties. Yes,

223
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:43.440
that's the one. Yeah, that's
one. Yeah, I was peed

224
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:45.799
on that one. Oh my god, it's a big one. Yeah,

225
00:14:45.840 --> 00:14:46.960
that's the one when you go in
his room and he's like get in the

226
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:50.600
grapes and oh no, no that's
not true. He's one of his cigar

227
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:52.679
and all that stuff. Yeah,
yeah that's him. I understand now.

228
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:56.639
Yeah, I'm making it. Don't
try that at home, kids, So

229
00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:01.240
that's bad for you. Yeah,
I would know. It's so is skateboarding.

230
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:05.639
But yep, you're going to do
it anyway, so how can you

231
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:07.919
do? Yeah? Yeah, those
are cool, cool times. Yeah,

232
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:09.559
and you know what, it's cool
Like you said, we were talking about

233
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.120
this last night. Actually a little
bit I think is like we're talking about

234
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:18.799
music, and then there's so many
like subliminal subversive like forms of language or

235
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:24.440
communication within even like instrumental music,
or if it's anything like fashion like self

236
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:31.879
expression or or is it skateboarding or
surf or whatever it is or uh I

237
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:33.799
think feels a little bit obvious,
like that's a communication tool. Sure,

238
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:37.919
yes, but it's really cool.
I don't know. And a lot of

239
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:41.679
a lot of it is sort of
kind of acting under the broad scope,

240
00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:46.440
like telling stories. Yeah, yeah, we're all doing whatever it is,

241
00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:50.360
any creative pursuit. Well that's what
that's where it all came from. I

242
00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:54.799
think, right back when we're all
sitting around campfires. Ah yeah. And

243
00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:58.759
then and then that's kind of where
where Shavez was born. Yes, right,

244
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:03.919
that's the silver screen wasn't quite there
yet, but it was on its

245
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:06.679
way. Oh yeah yeah. And
I like to say myself, you know,

246
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:10.399
I love acting because like storytelling is
like literally in our DNA, Like

247
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:14.000
yeah, I's saying, yes,
you know, storytelling is older than language.

248
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:17.320
You know, you go into a
caveman's cave and they had cave drawings.

249
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:21.039
They were telling stories before they had
written language, you know, and

250
00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:25.559
it's like it's fascinating and I think
it's so important and so many lessons and

251
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:29.960
cultures were passed down through stories.
Oh yeah, you know, like a

252
00:16:29.960 --> 00:16:32.399
lot of the times, you know, people bock at Hollywood these days and

253
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:34.679
blah blah blah. But I think
it's really like not to sound too like,

254
00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:37.919
well, but I really do think
it's like an important thing to have.

255
00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:41.759
God, I agree. Well,
you know, I read somewhere or

256
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:47.159
maybe I heard him say it,
but I think Steven Spielberg doesn't call himself

257
00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:52.320
a director, a producer, author, but he's a storyteller, you know.

258
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:56.399
That's and that's what he's really good
at. Yeah. So yeah,

259
00:16:56.519 --> 00:17:03.240
so here we are. Yeah,
stories please please. You're STEVENS. Bilberg.

260
00:17:03.839 --> 00:17:07.400
Have I ever met him? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, it was

261
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:14.799
a couple of times because of animaniacs. But I did this movie. I

262
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:18.799
was I was the bad guy in
Ah. That's why I'm a one in

263
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:22.480
the Kevin Bacon game. By the
way, Kevin Bacon was Balto in the

264
00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:25.960
six Kevin Bacon Yeah, yeah or
whatever is it sick? Yeah? Six

265
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:29.440
degrees that's right. Wow. Yeah, I'm one. Now you're a two.

266
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:34.119
You probably were one anyway, but
yeah, but I ended up being

267
00:17:34.160 --> 00:17:38.440
the bad guy in Balto and they
had they had cast it like three times,

268
00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:42.440
and Steven Spielberg it was his movie, and uh, he was just

269
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:48.799
tired of having to, you know, go through this actor or that actor

270
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:52.599
this. I won't name the other
guys who were before me, but they're

271
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:56.359
famous, they were on camera famous
and uh, and so they finally he

272
00:17:56.440 --> 00:18:00.720
called up ic M, where I
was at the time, and he said,

273
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:03.359
can you get me somebody who can
act wet in the shower for God's

274
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:04.839
sake or something like that. So
they sent me over there and I got

275
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:10.519
the gig and then I spent the
day with him, and he said,

276
00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:12.960
Okay, I'm gonna do this right, I'm going to direct this new bad

277
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:17.559
guy. And so I spent the
day with Steven Spilberg. So that was

278
00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:21.480
pretty cool. That's really cool.
Yeah, you get a phone call I

279
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:25.000
was just about to say, and
he's sitting there and he's like, oh,

280
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:26.880
okay, excuse me. Oh yeah, my agent Jeff Danus a cool

281
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.599
guy. He said it was the
only time he ever went to work with

282
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:33.359
me. He goes, wait,
Steven's gonna be there all day, and

283
00:18:33.359 --> 00:18:37.400
I go, you know what,
I'm gonna go with you. And so

284
00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:41.559
he went and hung out, well, hung out with Steven Spielberg and all

285
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:45.319
day long, and and he's going, oh, you know, I got

286
00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:48.960
to take a phone call. Yeah, yeah, hey Bill, Yeah,

287
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:52.519
oh god, yeah yeah, Schindler's
List. Yeah, I'm doing it right

288
00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:56.519
now. I'm not doing it right
now. I'm actually doing an animated feature.

289
00:18:56.240 --> 00:19:00.519
But oh yeah, oh yeah,
say hi to Hillary. Yeah,

290
00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:03.880
tell her. I said, hello, Okay, yeah, oh the kid

291
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:07.680

gotta go, I gotta go. I

292
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:11.160
got this guy staring at me and
we're trying to get this cartoon movie made.

293
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:12.799
So uh. And then then he
goes and then he gets off the

294
00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:18.440
phone with President Clinton, and I
go, okay, this is you know,

295
00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:22.000
excuse me, the president's calling.
How many times have you said that?

296
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:26.960
A few? But yeah, yeah, but it was the president of

297
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:33.240
the local supermarket. Yeah, so
that was my one brush. That's amazing,

298
00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:40.079
pretty cool. That's we should get
him on the pick. Yeah,

299
00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:44.000
well him too. You know what, Let's do them both, and surely

300
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:47.200
you have their number. Give him
a jingle, we'll take a break,

301
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:51.240
we'll be right back. Okay,
maybe not, but yeah, that that

302
00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:56.440
wouldn't suck. Man. Have you
done any voice acting or cartoons? I

303
00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:00.079
love it? Yes, I know
a few I didn't. There's one of

304
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:04.240
this picture movie I did call Luca
that that's that was good. That was

305
00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:11.319
a good one for me. And
I love doing that. That's just amazing.

306
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:15.000
It's I kind of love doing voice
work. It's I don't want to

307
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:18.880
make the comparison between doing live action
and for stuff. It's a whole different

308
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:22.920
beast for sure. Yeah, but
I like that you don't have to memorize

309
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:26.160
your lines. That's a very good
thing. Do you like that? Ding

310
00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:30.000
ding ding ding ding. That's the
best part? Oh, that is absolutely

311
00:20:30.119 --> 00:20:30.839
And how do you find it?
How many times you ask this question in

312
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:33.680
your life? How many times?
I mean, do you find it difficult

313
00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:37.079
when you're acting to do dialogue with
somebody like a fifty to fifty or whatever

314
00:20:37.559 --> 00:20:41.359
and the person's not there? And
it's oh yeah, I do that all

315
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:45.319
the time. I know, So
do you care the time? Well?

316
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:48.119
I always like the privilege of being
able to talk to another actor in the

317
00:20:48.200 --> 00:20:51.599
room. Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, plenty, that's nice.

318
00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:55.279
Yeah. We did all the Star
Wars Clone Wars, oh yeah, and

319
00:20:55.359 --> 00:20:59.039
uh and Rebels, they were all
everybody was there. I like that.

320
00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:03.359
I like it better now since COVID, they really don't do it, no,

321
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:07.839
you know, so, yeah,
I'm not crazy about it, but

322
00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:10.799
I think before COVID was a real
total, I mean, totally different.

323
00:21:10.799 --> 00:21:14.920
Maybe I can't remember how different it
was. Yeah, but I really prefer

324
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:19.480
it because if you add lib which
I do, it either screws up or

325
00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:23.200
enhances the line after you yeah,
you know, and they and if that

326
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:27.240
person's not there, you know,
what are you gonna do? I love

327
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:30.160
to see how involved you are in
that in the creative process, since you're

328
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:34.680
such like you know, you're a
seasoned veteran in this that's code for olds

329
00:21:34.839 --> 00:21:40.240
for old antiquated. Yes, yeah, yeah, it's a lot of fun.

330
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:42.839
Well, you know, I like
throwing curveballs. Yeah, you know.

331
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:48.480
The best example was Don Carnage from
Tailspin Old Show, and it was

332
00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:52.640
everybody when they think of a pirate, they always think of a crusty old

333
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:57.400
booger which out the sea like that
and so, but instead I made him

334
00:21:57.400 --> 00:22:03.200
from Gula or more crazy like in
the Cyan, and uh, they thought,

335
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:07.519
Okay, that's weird. Let's do
that weird guy. Yeah, so

336
00:22:07.680 --> 00:22:10.200
I got the gig. That's awesome. So you know, you throw them

337
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:12.960
a curveball. That's so great,
you know. I love that. It's

338
00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:17.240
so much fun to take risks and
calculated risks. That's what thing makes a

339
00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:19.559
lot of the greatest. I mean, one of my favorite actress of all

340
00:22:19.559 --> 00:22:25.319
time is Jack Lemon, and I
always I can always tells I like them.

341
00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:26.640
Yeah, I love I mean,
man, but there's I mean,

342
00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:30.119
there's not actors who can like Richard
Burden is another my favorite actress. They're

343
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:34.200
very different that, you know,
Gary Cooper is also, I don't know,

344
00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:37.160
there's a thing about like when when
they take these like calculated risks that

345
00:22:37.160 --> 00:22:41.839
are like it feels very theater derived. That's something that's so impressive and I've

346
00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:45.400
always wanted to implement that in my
work. But sometimes I'm like, am

347
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:48.480
I being a dick? Like I
want to jump up I'm doing a scene

348
00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:51.079
in the high school thing I want
I want to jump up and smack the

349
00:22:51.079 --> 00:22:53.440
ceiling fan just because I'm I'm an
actor and like, yeah, I want

350
00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:56.359
to do the cool. I'm gonna
do the weird thing that's not maybe not

351
00:22:56.400 --> 00:23:00.200
worth it, I don't know,
Yeah, but you gotta find that sweet

352
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:02.680
and I do sometimes and it feels
just like, you know, the dip

353
00:23:02.680 --> 00:23:06.400
in a beautiful roller coasters like good
belly laugh or something. It feels Oh

354
00:23:06.440 --> 00:23:07.960
that's cool. Yeah, yeah,
what do you think the biggest risk you've

355
00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:14.160
taken is? I mean, besides
being I do like sometimes I'll do actually

356
00:23:14.200 --> 00:23:17.240
like physical comedy gags. There's a
bit when I'm supposed to I did this

357
00:23:17.279 --> 00:23:23.160
show, this HBO show, uh, and I jump over a fence and

358
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:27.519
I love doing. I'm like so
good at falling because there's a skateboarding I've

359
00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:32.279
gotten some better at falling than than
actual skating. And so I did like

360
00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:33.759
a thing where I tripped on the
thing and smacked my face in the sand

361
00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:37.519
and I was like, oh oh. And then I had one thing where

362
00:23:37.599 --> 00:23:40.640
I had a sugar glass bottle,
but but the dresser didn't know that it

363
00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:42.480
was sugar glass. Oh come on, he because that the prop guy.

364
00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:45.920
They had the bottles, and they
had sugar glass bottles because the thing the

365
00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:48.680
bottle is supposed to break earlier in
the scene. But then I did a

366
00:23:48.720 --> 00:23:51.599
thing that was really funny. I
had like this this intense conversation with this

367
00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:55.079
guy. Then the show there's this
guy who's been trying to get with my

368
00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:56.240
mom or whatever. But he doesn't
know that my mom is a lesbian and

369
00:23:56.240 --> 00:24:00.319
all these things. And I take
that. But he walks without a song,

370
00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:02.559
walks away, and then I'm like
and then I bring the bottle up.

371
00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:03.720
This it felt really cool to me. I put the bottle to my

372
00:24:03.720 --> 00:24:04.759
face and I was like, well, no, no, no no,

373
00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:07.599
And I was like talking to him
as if I was talking to the bottle,

374
00:24:07.599 --> 00:24:11.240
as if it was the guy.
If you keep turning like mumbling,

375
00:24:11.279 --> 00:24:14.759
and then I punched the bottle and
in my hand and I was ah,

376
00:24:14.799 --> 00:24:18.200
and I thought that was kind of
ouch. Yeah, but it didn't hurt

377
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:22.039
that bad. It was like whatever
was italy this water? It makes me

378
00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:29.400
realized it was a bullying pin yow. Yeah. Ouch. Well you have

379
00:24:29.519 --> 00:24:33.640
you have stunt people for that,
right, for bottle punching? Yeah,

380
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:37.720
this separate person. Yeah, I
have a different stunt. That's good stuff.

381
00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:44.440
Ye ouch excuse me. Well another
connection between you guys, Jim,

382
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:48.400
you play Winnie the Pooh of course, yes, who carries a red balloon

383
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:51.920
a lot? You know, right, and that's true. You were in

384
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:56.519
something with a red balloon. I'm
not yes, you know, I'm not

385
00:24:56.559 --> 00:25:00.680
gonna go too deep into that,
but you know, there's a little red

386
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:06.440
blue connection there, right, that
could be red. Yeah, you like,

387
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:10.559
what do you what do you think
about red balloons? I say,

388
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:15.400
the more red balloons, please,
That's what I say. And then every

389
00:25:15.480 --> 00:25:18.039
now and then the blue just to
break it up, just bring it up.

390
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:22.279
Oh man, did you go to
the State Fair as a kid?

391
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:26.599
Yes? Yeah, well I went
to the where'd you grow up, by

392
00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:30.279
the way, Youngstown, Ohio.
It's a great place to be from.

393
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:33.119
Yeah, I mean, but in
order to be from there, you have

394
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:40.039
to leave. Sorry, anyway,
You're great place to bring it up,

395
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:47.079
how about you. I'm from Los
Angeles. I'm from San Monica area.

396
00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:52.759
And that explains the skateboard thing.
That explains the pretend and the guitar and

397
00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.480
the guitar. I want the guitar
to be more of a Nashville extension of

398
00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:00.519
me. But I started, you
know, where I started playing director was

399
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:03.400
in Atlanta. But there's something that
I mean, I don't know, man,

400
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:06.359
I never there was something about the
South before I moved there that I

401
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:07.319
was like, I don't know,
I really don't know if I could do

402
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:11.640
it. I love the we I
love the water and the and the the

403
00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:18.279
ocean and the mountains and all that
stuff very much in California. Geographically,

404
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:22.160
it's an incredible place. But then
I was in Atlanta and I felt like,

405
00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:25.559
oh my goodness. I was working
there and I felt so I don't

406
00:26:25.559 --> 00:26:29.000
know, I just like it's something
soulful or something about the people and the

407
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:33.160
kindness and there's I don't know,
And yeah, yeah, I felt that

408
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:36.079
way about New Orleans. Yes,
I moved there, right. I got

409
00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:38.119
out of high school and I moved
to New Orleans. Great, and it

410
00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:41.880
was I just loved it. I
told my parents I was going to go

411
00:26:41.920 --> 00:26:47.440
down and I went to Marty Grass
with the buddy of mine from he'd gotten

412
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:49.680
out of the army and he was
a little older than me. And I

413
00:26:49.720 --> 00:26:52.920
said, well, I'm just going
to go to Marty Grass. And then

414
00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.000
Marty Graus was over, and I
called my parents, so, okay,

415
00:26:56.039 --> 00:26:57.640
Marty Gras is over, and I
go, you know, I'm just gonna

416
00:26:57.640 --> 00:27:00.640
stick around. Anyway. I lived
there for like ten years, and then,

417
00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:04.720
you know, I just never went
back, you know, to Youngstown.

418
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:07.880
And I moved from there New Orleans
to California. And here we are.

419
00:27:08.200 --> 00:27:15.920
How's your Creole Cajun accent? He's
not too bad. Well, I

420
00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:18.480
had a few though, Yeah,
what's that, it's a few different Yeah,

421
00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:22.240
oh god, yeah, Well I
don't want to bore anybody with the

422
00:27:22.279 --> 00:27:26.319
story he's heard. But uh,
you know, I was one of the

423
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:30.599
first cartoons I ever did was Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles, and I was a

424
00:27:30.599 --> 00:27:34.839
bad guy named Leatherhead. I was
a leather alligator who got mutated the way

425
00:27:36.160 --> 00:27:40.559
the turtles did yank and uh.
And he was a Cajun alligator. And

426
00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:47.599
so I just used the the tugboat
captain from my very first river run,

427
00:27:47.680 --> 00:27:49.599
you know, I was on the
old Dutch was the name of the boat.

428
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:55.119
And his name was Leon's le Blon
and he goes from my day then

429
00:27:55.240 --> 00:28:00.480
Napoleonville, Louisiana, and that's how
he talked, and so and I said,

430
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:03.599
jeezus, okay, dude, your
leatherhead. Yeah, and I could

431
00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:07.559
I always I wondered, if you
know, because it was like a couple

432
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:11.960
of years later. It wasn't that
long that, you know, I was

433
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:15.880
from being a deckhand to being a
cartoon guy. Uh. And I wondered

434
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:19.279
if his grandkids are sitting around going, hey, Grandpa, come on in

435
00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:22.400
here. You know this this alligator
right here. You know that because it

436
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:26.960
will just Hi, I stole his
voice, and so I think, and

437
00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:30.480
that's one of my philosophies. I
don't know if you care about it.

438
00:28:32.119 --> 00:28:36.119
Use this in your angle, but
if you do a perfect compression of somebody

439
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:38.440
that nobody knows, it's a new
character, definitely, so you steal it.

440
00:28:38.559 --> 00:28:42.480
How don't you recycle voices for brother? You know, you have to

441
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:45.920
have a certain amount of credits in
between those two projects where you can do

442
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:48.359
that for years or something. Oh
oh, you mean like recycle the character

443
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:52.519
the voice. Yes, well,
I've never used him for anybody else.

444
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:56.279
I mean, thank god he does
not do books on tape. It was

445
00:28:56.359 --> 00:28:59.640
the best of times. It wasn't
the worst of time. You don't want

446
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:02.039
to hear, don't want to know, you don't want to hear that guy.

447
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:06.079
Yeah, well you like Xataca music
and Doctor John and whatnot. Yeah,

448
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:07.720
it was a lot of fun.
Oh yeah, well, you know,

449
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:15.559
I used to live a stone's throw
and I mean, like not not

450
00:29:15.640 --> 00:29:21.880
even a frisbee throw from the racetrack, which is where New Orleans Jazz Fest.

451
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:23.680
That was the first music, live
music I've ever seen in my life.

452
00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:26.519
Oh yeah, four years old.
Yeah, jazz Fest, jazz Fest.

453
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:30.720
Wow, And I like apparently had
this spastic attack, but I was

454
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:32.319
like four years old. I took
my shirt off and I was like,

455
00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:34.759
Mama, this is the most amazing
thing ever. And I just started shaking

456
00:29:34.759 --> 00:29:40.039
about and she's like, wow,
you were right, you were right.

457
00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:44.279
Yeah, oh god. Yeah.
Well New Orleans, you know there's music

458
00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:48.319
seeping up from the crack so much
soul. Yeah, and I would think

459
00:29:48.480 --> 00:29:52.720
Nashville's got that same groove. Definitely, Yeah, yes, definitely, definitely.

460
00:29:52.039 --> 00:29:56.599
So maybe it's a little different,
maybe it's a little more contained in

461
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:02.359
question. Yeah, but that's a
pretty hip I don't know, like it's

462
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:06.920
a it's a melting pot. I
think a lot of different cool idea uh

463
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:11.279
uh, creative things, I don't. I think a lot of people are

464
00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:15.359
doing lots of cool stuff, and
lots of people leaving Hollywood also and going

465
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:19.319
and making like building sound stages and
whatnot, and yeah, a lot of

466
00:30:19.319 --> 00:30:22.440
cool stuff like that. Yeah.
Yeah, Well it's a good place to

467
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:26.160
be from, yes, if you
leave. Yeah, I'm not from there.

468
00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:27.960
It'd be a lot cooler if I
was, though it would be a

469
00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:30.720
little more exotic. I don't know. Being from Los Angeles and then being

470
00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:37.400
an actor is so predictable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's the same

471
00:30:37.480 --> 00:30:41.400
with me in Youngstown's so predictable.
That's predictable. Yeah, that's working in

472
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:44.680
a steel mill. Wow. I
can't recommend it, but somebody's got to

473
00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:47.240
do it. I did. Wow. Oh yeah. Do you forget any

474
00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:49.400
injuries on your paws or anything?
Uh something like that? Yeah, I

475
00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:52.759
got to burn here. Once it's
gone. Now it's cleared up. Oh

476
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:57.160
no, there it is. Anyway, Well, this is riveting footage mutage.

477
00:30:57.240 --> 00:31:00.759
Yeah, I don't know. You
worked in the steel mill? Yeah

478
00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:03.920
for six months? Okay. It
was a pin of ass. But I'm

479
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:07.880
glad somebody does it. That's not
a job for a fpian. Yeah.

480
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:10.759
No, No, I was acting
like I knew what I was doing.

481
00:31:10.799 --> 00:31:14.519
That's cool though, Yeah, of
course, and I did. I was

482
00:31:14.559 --> 00:31:17.519
truly acting at that point, I'll
tell you. Yeah. Oh god.

483
00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:22.200
Anyway, we were talking about impressions, Jack, Do you do you do

484
00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:26.799
any impressions? Do you have a
favorite one? You do? I don't

485
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:30.200
know, know, I can't think
of a single one right now. Definitely

486
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.839
it'd be so I'm doing you really
well? I know. That's probably that's

487
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:37.559
one of the harder ones. But
whatever, I do it all the time,

488
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:41.240
so I have a lot of practice. That's a cool, actually cool

489
00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:44.519
idea. Actually, you know,
I read this book I used to there

490
00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:45.680
was a time in my life when
I felt not to change the subject,

491
00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:48.759
but I gave me an idea.
There's time in my life when I was

492
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:49.640
like, oh man, I think
I might have been fifteen or sixteen,

493
00:31:51.279 --> 00:31:57.079
and I was like, okay,
which one's the real me? Like I

494
00:31:57.200 --> 00:32:02.960
I know that I'm like a caredic, extroverted maybe dude sometimes but sometimes I'm

495
00:32:02.960 --> 00:32:07.119
not And sometimes I want to be
quiet and sometimes is that does that mean

496
00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:08.759
I'm sad? Does that mean I'm
lost? Is that? Does that mean

497
00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:13.000
that's okay? Because if you're lost
or more vulnerable to being found, what's

498
00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:16.240
going on? And then I read
this book called We or No Sorry,

499
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:22.960
called Us by Carl Jung, and
he talked about masks and what's it called?

500
00:32:23.279 --> 00:32:25.519
So we all have them, and
we all have we all wear masks,

501
00:32:25.640 --> 00:32:30.599
and they're all extensions of ourselves and
there or or like. But then

502
00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:32.599
there's also those people that you can
find in your life where you can be

503
00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:37.519
completely maskless around and you can feel
okay in that space and you're not being

504
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:42.319
fake or you're not being right to
yourself or any airs. Yeah. But

505
00:32:42.359 --> 00:32:44.480
even if you're wearing one of your
masks, like if you're going to,

506
00:32:44.680 --> 00:32:46.400
like say, the party that we
went to last night, I probably wouldn't

507
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:49.559
interact with a lot of the people
that were there the same way that I

508
00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:52.200
would interact with a buddy I've had
for ten or twelve years. You know

509
00:32:52.960 --> 00:33:00.480
that. Well, yeah, yeah, I amended that. No, that's

510
00:33:00.559 --> 00:33:05.559
so true. The trip, but
that's that's that's life. Yeah, yeah,

511
00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:08.559
I'm pretty sure. Yeah, I've
heard of it. Yeah, I'm

512
00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:15.880
getting into it. I'm really into
this life thing now. Yeah, so

513
00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:19.720
very cool man. Yeah, what
what is the very next thing? For

514
00:33:19.759 --> 00:33:22.880
you? Are you? Are you
conning every weekend? I think I asked

515
00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:25.519
you. I'm conspiring every weekend,
That's what Conning says, right, Conning,

516
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:34.799
Yeah, I'm conspiring. I'm going
to Manchester at some point. You

517
00:33:35.079 --> 00:33:37.839
Wow, No, I don't think
so. I'm going there for a con

518
00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:39.880
and then I got to go to
Paris for something else. But that doesn't

519
00:33:39.880 --> 00:33:47.759
that's that sounds terrible, I know
for you, I know, I never

520
00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:50.680
heard anything I want. I don't
want to go to Paris. I wanted

521
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:57.599
to go to Milan. No,
I guess I got a movie coming out

522
00:33:57.599 --> 00:33:59.960
which I kind of like this one. Actually, it's just a movie called

523
00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:06.519
Downtown Owls, based on a book
Owl Owl and it's cool. It's it's

524
00:34:06.519 --> 00:34:08.559
founded in Minnesota, from the Minneapolis
I don't know if you know who Hamish

525
00:34:08.559 --> 00:34:14.280
link Later is. He's an incredible, freaking genius actor. It was kind

526
00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:16.239
of under the radar. And he's
a comedian. He's just such a smart

527
00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:21.599
such a smart dude, and he
writes an incredible theater and we talked Shakespeare

528
00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:23.400
like total nerds all the time.
And he's just a really cool guy.

529
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:27.960
Oh that's great, Yeah, super
great. And that's a cool movie that

530
00:34:28.000 --> 00:34:30.880
should be that's coming out. I
guess when's that coming. I think December,

531
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:35.440
early December, December, coming to
a theater near you. Yeah,

532
00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:39.760
ladies and gentleman, were you that
guy? Do you know the guy?

533
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:43.360
You know that the in a world
guy? What's his name? Oh?

534
00:34:43.400 --> 00:34:47.400
Well, yeah, Don la Fontaine
in the World. Yeah, yeah,

535
00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:51.480
he was a good guy. My
mom used to like I slirt with him

536
00:34:51.559 --> 00:34:53.519
or something. Oh yeah, on
the rocks in Hollywood or whatever. There

537
00:34:53.559 --> 00:35:00.239
you go, wow, in the
world so great they never made Yeah,

538
00:35:00.440 --> 00:35:02.360
yeah, I was one of those
guys. But plus I think I have

539
00:35:02.400 --> 00:35:07.440
a sore throat from touretting at these
cons. You know, you just you're

540
00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:10.400
yelling, you're doing this and that, you know which, I have to

541
00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:15.159
stop doing that. I have to
preserve my instrument. Of course it is,

542
00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:19.880
yes, it is. It's your
livelihood. Yeah, why did you

543
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:22.880
develop that deep, that deep rugged
rasp. You don't smoke cigarettes? No,

544
00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:25.639
no, no, no, no, I never smoked cigarettes. I

545
00:35:25.679 --> 00:35:29.519
think my voice is just right smack
in the middle. It's not very high

546
00:35:29.639 --> 00:35:31.199
and it's not very low. So
to go a little higher, to go

547
00:35:31.239 --> 00:35:34.639
a little lower, isn't that big
of a trip. That's a blessing.

548
00:35:34.920 --> 00:35:37.639
Yeah, I think so that's a
great gift you guys. Yeah yeah,

549
00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:40.960
knock on wood. But it didn't
work out because I really wanted to be

550
00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:46.559
a mime. So I'm a huge
failure. So that show you might have

551
00:35:46.599 --> 00:35:52.239
made that up. I wanted to
be a rodeo clown. Oh oh downgraded

552
00:35:52.360 --> 00:35:54.800
Yeah yeah, for like ten minutes. Then you tried it once in the

553
00:35:54.800 --> 00:35:59.239
bull you said, no, Yeah, that's where I found it. That's

554
00:35:59.239 --> 00:36:00.199
where I was like, oh my
god, if I could do this for

555
00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:04.440
the rest of my life. Yeah, and that became an actor, which

556
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:12.079
when the rest of your life said, one of those damn things hits you.

557
00:36:14.800 --> 00:36:16.440
So you're after the con for the
for the day. I'm after the

558
00:36:16.440 --> 00:36:22.320
con for the day. I'm very
excited, very excited for these days.

559
00:36:22.840 --> 00:36:25.519
I have a lot of fun.
And we're here in beautiful Salt Lake City.

560
00:36:25.519 --> 00:36:29.320
You've been st City before? Yeah, I've never been my first time

561
00:36:29.320 --> 00:36:31.679
in Utah. Yeah. Oh yeah, Wow? Did you have us a

562
00:36:31.760 --> 00:36:37.800
Mormon? Uh? No, you
neither. I'm a Cathololic. Catholic.

563
00:36:37.840 --> 00:36:43.920
Sorry, yeah, I'm a I
don't know. I'm a man of the

564
00:36:43.920 --> 00:36:47.519
world. I'm a man of the
world, deeply spiritual past regression and the

565
00:36:47.760 --> 00:36:53.639
sensor deprivation tanks and healing crystals,
healing crystals, manifestations and yes, I

566
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:59.199
have me and Hubbard or good friends. You say your intentions every morning every

567
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:00.639
Yeah, no, I should start
doing that. I said prayers. I

568
00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:05.280
say like a morning prayer. I
said before I eat, before good bed.

569
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:08.079
That's funny because I prayed before you
eat too. Oh good? Yeah,

570
00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:13.039
why do I feel like praying real? He's obviously getting red eat.

571
00:37:15.039 --> 00:37:19.320
It just comes over. Is it
just making that special? No? No,

572
00:37:19.480 --> 00:37:23.039
just you. Wow, that's really
nice and Landy Kravitz. Oh good,

573
00:37:23.039 --> 00:37:27.159
I'm so glad to be involved in
that. I don't have any idea

574
00:37:27.159 --> 00:37:29.320
why I said that. That's a
good name though, to pull out of.

00:38:42.840 --> 00:38:45.880
familiar with Babylon, the kind of
anger book and that whole world. I'm

593
00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:50.320
obsessed with that stuff like that's oh
my gosh, I love it. Anyway,

594
00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:52.880
he was talking to me about He
told me some stories. He told

595
00:38:52.920 --> 00:39:00.639
me a story about what's his name, who's the DP for freaking anymore?

596
00:39:00.639 --> 00:39:06.079
Acona all the time? Come on, oh, Dante Spinote. Dante Spinote

597
00:39:06.519 --> 00:39:10.239
here from Italy and he tells me
these incredible stories, like he got this

598
00:39:10.519 --> 00:39:16.519
agent. That's some that's a big
thing. This is when the gramins of

599
00:39:16.519 --> 00:39:21.519
the TC Chinese Theater used to be, Uh, we have the big elephants,

600
00:39:21.559 --> 00:39:23.280
the big ivory elephants. Do you
know that they shipped them from freaking

601
00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:30.199
India. This was like Hollywood used. Yes, yes, freaking Hollywood Land.

602
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:35.599
I love that stuff too. Yeah, it was a whole something.

603
00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:39.840
Texture, the texture, Yeah,
the tambra. I love anyway, this

604
00:39:39.880 --> 00:39:44.480
is amazing story. So he gets
his agent, and the agent gives him

605
00:39:44.480 --> 00:39:46.599
a call across the seas or whatever, or sends him a letter or something

606
00:39:46.639 --> 00:39:50.920
and says, when you get here, you will arrive to find that the

607
00:39:51.400 --> 00:39:53.960
streets are paved with gold and and
your name will be written on all the

608
00:39:54.039 --> 00:39:58.719
big YadA yadas and whatever. And
so he's like, wow, my god,

609
00:39:58.760 --> 00:40:00.400
I guess I got a lot of
great and waiting for me in Sunday,

610
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:04.880
California, sunny Los Angeles, Hollywood. And he gets there, and

611
00:40:05.559 --> 00:40:08.079
not too long after arriving, he
realizes that he's the streets aren't paid with

612
00:40:08.119 --> 00:40:10.599
gold, but he's gonna have to
be the one to pave them. And

613
00:40:10.679 --> 00:40:14.519
John Leck can tell me this story
or that it was his job to be

614
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:17.519
the one to pave them with gold
and that and that just felt so delicious

615
00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:21.960
in it, and it added like
that they kind of that like I love,

616
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:23.920
I love there's so much about movies
and things that I love. But

617
00:40:24.079 --> 00:40:25.840
I mean, I love the acting
part. I love. I mean,

618
00:40:25.880 --> 00:40:30.800
I love self expressing and telling stories. But also there's this this thing about

619
00:40:30.880 --> 00:40:32.599
like when I was a kid,
I remember watching movies get honored at the

620
00:40:32.679 --> 00:40:36.480
Oscars in such a way that I
don't know if if it feels the same

621
00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:39.599
way anymore, to be honest with
you at all, but there was like

622
00:40:40.280 --> 00:40:45.400
such a steem in regard. It
was like so velvety and decadent and it's

623
00:40:45.800 --> 00:40:52.079
red satin, and I was just
like, that's a beautiful whirld, Like

624
00:40:52.960 --> 00:40:57.920
wow, yeah, and they're n'ting
something really meaningful, something that is like

625
00:40:58.119 --> 00:41:00.599
making movies. And then I watched
the movie Babylon and there was this bit

626
00:41:00.679 --> 00:41:04.639
in that movie when Brad Pitt's but
he's super drunk, remember that bit when

627
00:41:04.639 --> 00:41:06.800
he's about kiss the s girl and
they can't get him up the hill and

628
00:41:06.840 --> 00:41:13.599
spiked Joe just playing maxiwon Stronheim and
or Max uh what's his name? Yes,

629
00:41:13.639 --> 00:41:19.760
thank you, Austrian guy. And
there's this bit when everybody's panicking and

630
00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:22.320
then everybody's been and the freaking there's
filming out in the middle of the desert

631
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:23.840
and you know, it's nineteen twenty
seven or whatever, and they're filming three

632
00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:27.039
hundred movies at the same time on
the same day in the same place.

633
00:41:27.039 --> 00:41:30.280
Because there's no sound, they can
do it anyway. They're losing light and

634
00:41:30.480 --> 00:41:32.800
he says his line, and he
and he kisses the girl, and then

635
00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:37.480
a butterfly comes and lands on his
shoulder. Man, I mean, there's

636
00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:40.920
something that I think is super cosmic. I'm going on a tangent now,

637
00:41:40.920 --> 00:41:45.039
I guess, but there's something that
something that happens I think in the unifor

638
00:41:45.039 --> 00:41:47.360
I don't know. Maybe it's God. I've found it to be. I

639
00:41:47.440 --> 00:41:53.119
guess. We're like when there's all
these like minded individuals collaborating or creating together

640
00:41:53.199 --> 00:41:55.280
in the same place, it's almost
like when you have a deja vu and

641
00:41:55.320 --> 00:41:58.679
it's like, Okay, right place, right time, Wow, should be

642
00:41:58.719 --> 00:42:01.320
here, you know. Yeah,
something think like miracles happen, Like these

643
00:42:01.679 --> 00:42:09.519
these unbelievable, like extraordinary things happen
when all these people are doing what they're

644
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:13.079
meant to be doing in the same
place, trying to bring their dreams into

645
00:42:13.079 --> 00:42:16.280
the fabrica of reality and tell these
stories and bring color to the it's just

646
00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:22.679
even there's so much co light.
That's true. I know exactly what you're

647
00:42:22.679 --> 00:42:27.159
talking. Remarkable, remarkable thing.
What's that butterfly doing in here? Get

648
00:42:27.199 --> 00:42:32.159
out of anyway? Yeah, that's
great, Get out of here, scramki

649
00:42:32.280 --> 00:42:37.639
b oh, we got rid of
that. Yeah, when we were just

650
00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:40.440
talking about something similar to that just
the other day. You know, like

651
00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:45.440
when you bump into somebody that you
know and you're like across the world.

652
00:42:45.639 --> 00:42:47.559
You know. We were just in
Italy and we were walking down the street

653
00:42:47.760 --> 00:42:52.159
and I literally bumped into my scene
partner from Vancouver. Wow. You know,

654
00:42:52.239 --> 00:42:57.960
we're on complete opposite side of the
world and like literally into each other,

655
00:42:58.480 --> 00:43:00.199
and we were like, what what
do you do? Could that be?

656
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:04.280
Yeah? Exactly, you know,
like to your point, like I

657
00:43:04.400 --> 00:43:08.400
really do believe, like there's this
there's this energy, this frequency god yeah,

658
00:43:08.440 --> 00:43:13.719
wah, whatever it is, you
know that we don't really like fully

659
00:43:13.880 --> 00:43:15.880
understand, but it's like there,
it's the presence. We can feel it,

660
00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:19.280
you know. And like I love
seeing your passion. You know,

661
00:43:19.320 --> 00:43:22.599
you're so passionate about this, and
I think that's what really fuels this industry,

662
00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:24.800
you know, is passionate people like
both of you, and it's it's

663
00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:28.679
awesome to see and like, yeah, I really agree, like right place

664
00:43:28.719 --> 00:43:31.800
at the right times. Like yeah, it's really funny though, man,

665
00:43:32.119 --> 00:43:36.320
I've become so dulled. I don't
know adults the right word, but like

666
00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:43.920
used to serendipities and mind blowing synchronicities. For some reason, they just happen

667
00:43:43.960 --> 00:43:45.000
all the time, like that's life, you know something. It's like,

668
00:43:45.039 --> 00:43:47.480
oh my god, this is this
a coincidence? Or are they like God's

669
00:43:47.519 --> 00:43:50.639
plan? What is this? This
person called me. I was just talking

670
00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:52.320
about them. Then I saw them
driving in the car the red light.

671
00:43:52.440 --> 00:43:55.719
What the heck is going on?
Yeah? Well what's that? Luck is

672
00:43:55.800 --> 00:44:01.480
being prepared or good fortune is being
prepared when when opportunity knocks. Yeah,

673
00:44:01.519 --> 00:44:05.000
you know, you got you got
to answer that door, you know,

674
00:44:05.159 --> 00:44:07.800
accept it. Yeah. Always,
that's brilliant, That's exactly right. Yeah,

675
00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:13.719
tune in that frequency. Excuse me, because you know we've all had

676
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:17.239
those things, you know where if
like you know, when you're getting ready

677
00:44:17.280 --> 00:44:21.519
to go and you're getting ready to
board the Titanic and you'd missed the gang

678
00:44:21.599 --> 00:44:24.239
plank, missed it by that much, it's it's okay. You know,

679
00:44:25.119 --> 00:44:29.880
those little things happen and it's going
to be fine, especially if you were

680
00:44:29.880 --> 00:44:31.239
going to on the Titanic. Oh
yeah, that would have sucked. So

681
00:44:31.840 --> 00:44:35.400
I mean, not necessarily the movie, because I understand it did well.

682
00:44:36.199 --> 00:44:40.760
Actually anyway, Yeah, my favorite
good stuff I wish I got on No

683
00:44:40.920 --> 00:44:45.679
Zark. Yeah, no, uh
Zark, he's a good guy. Yeah,

684
00:44:45.760 --> 00:44:49.599
yes, And then then you you're
pulling out a port and you're looking

685
00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:54.039
and the unicorns are standing there going
oh yeah, yeah, yeah, they

686
00:44:54.079 --> 00:45:00.960
didn't make it on poor guys.
Well, should we show the guitar some

think, Jim? I'm gonna let you

pipes are rusty. Same and also,

690
00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:15.639
my brain feels really dumb today.
I can't even come up with a better

691
00:45:15.679 --> 00:45:24.199
word than dumb. You don't try
this at home. Actually, go ahead.
