So there's certain things that you 238 00:08:56.049 --> 00:08:56.529 might expect. 239 00:08:56.620 --> 00:08:59.360 I thought, there's a lot of people that live in 240 00:08:59.399 --> 00:08:59.840 a bubble. 241 00:09:00.220 --> 00:09:00.720 You know what I mean? 242 00:09:00.740 --> 00:09:05.100 They live in a bubble, and I've experienced it firsthand. 243 00:09:05.500 --> 00:09:08.179 And they don't have much life experience. And I started 244 00:09:08.220 --> 00:09:10.629 talking to you, and you had the wisdom to, Of 245 00:09:10.710 --> 00:09:14.230 like an old Ukrainian fisherman, you know? I just was 246 00:09:14.269 --> 00:09:18.750 like blown away by how street smart you were, how 247 00:09:18.929 --> 00:09:22.570 frugal you were. You told me that your parents got 248 00:09:22.629 --> 00:09:24.870 mad at you about something and they took your right 249 00:09:24.889 --> 00:09:26.700 to drive your car away. So you were taking the 250 00:09:26.820 --> 00:09:29.379 bus to tapings of that 70s show. 251 00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:29.470 Yep. 252 00:09:30.620 --> 00:09:33.580 And I thought, this is, first of all, God bless 253 00:09:33.620 --> 00:09:36.679 your parents. But second of all, this is great. 254 00:09:37.059 --> 00:09:37.240 Yeah. 255 00:09:37.259 --> 00:09:38.000 This is fantastic. 256 00:09:38.059 --> 00:09:41.679 I have really cool parents. I mean, hindsight 2020, they're awesome. 257 00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:46.000 But when you're, you know, 16, 17, well, maybe let's 258 00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:47.899 say 15, 16. And I was on 70 Show and 259 00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:50.389 I didn't have a license at the time. My mom 260 00:09:50.409 --> 00:09:52.629 had to pick me up from work. And I was 261 00:09:52.649 --> 00:09:55.450 still going to public school. And she worked at Rite 262 00:09:55.490 --> 00:09:57.909 Aid on Laurel Canyon and Victory. And so she would 263 00:09:57.929 --> 00:09:59.970 drive down to CBS and pick me up after rehearsal. 264 00:10:00.580 --> 00:10:03.080 at like 3 and then take me back to work 265 00:10:03.100 --> 00:10:05.549 with her until she closed the store at 10 p.m., 266 00:10:06.049 --> 00:10:10.149 and I had to do ice cream and do your photos. 267 00:10:10.600 --> 00:10:12.600 I had, like, a whole other job because I had 268 00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:16.220 no choice, and I was like, this is bullshit. Like, 269 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:16.980 I work. 270 00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:18.340 What am I doing? 271 00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:21.610 So, like, I literally, like, I had no choice. But 272 00:10:21.620 --> 00:10:24.309 it's a different world. I bet today my parents would 273 00:10:24.330 --> 00:10:26.509 have been like, well, just Uber home. But that didn't exist. 274 00:10:26.529 --> 00:10:27.830 But that's not even the point. 275 00:10:27.870 --> 00:10:32.190 The point to me is more– Most kids your age, 276 00:10:32.289 --> 00:10:35.750 when they land at a major sitcom job, you know 277 00:10:35.769 --> 00:10:39.480 what I mean, role, it's a matter of weeks before 278 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:43.159 they're online ordering like a Bentley, you know, or something 279 00:10:43.179 --> 00:10:43.919 they can't afford. 280 00:10:44.379 --> 00:10:45.139 No, you know what I mean. 281 00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:46.539 I mean, if you're an immigrant, you have a very 282 00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.909 different mentality. I really do attest to the fact that, like, 283 00:10:50.090 --> 00:10:52.929 I'm not first generation. My kids are first generation. Right. 284 00:10:52.950 --> 00:10:56.740 So because I am an immigrant, I think that that– 285 00:10:57.490 --> 00:11:00.169 creates a different perspective on what the value of a 286 00:11:00.190 --> 00:11:02.570 dollar is and what hard work is. I really do, from, like, 287 00:11:02.690 --> 00:11:03.330 you know, ground up. 288 00:11:03.850 --> 00:11:08.269 I think– I mean, you've talked about that, Sona. You've 289 00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:10.720 talked about how– Yes, yeah. I'm always convincing people that 290 00:11:10.740 --> 00:11:11.480 you are an immigrant. 291 00:11:12.580 --> 00:11:12.899 I'm not. 292 00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:14.779 My parents are, and I know exactly– So you're first generation. 293 00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:15.580 I am first generation. 294 00:11:15.620 --> 00:11:16.080 So I'm your parents. 295 00:11:16.259 --> 00:11:18.159 Yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about. 296 00:11:18.179 --> 00:11:18.840 I totally get that. 297 00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:22.490 And you always had jobs, and you're extremely practical, and 298 00:11:22.509 --> 00:11:24.909 you're always– Your brother's always giving you a hard time 299 00:11:24.970 --> 00:11:26.190 if you spend like an– Sure. 300 00:11:26.210 --> 00:11:27.370 To a fault almost. 301

00:11:27.389 --> 00:11:30.309 Like there's a happy medium. And it took me– like 302 00:11:30.409 --> 00:11:33.250 I say this. Yes, there's extremes to both situations. But 303 00:11:33.269 --> 00:11:35.370 I was such an extreme like I'm going to be 304 00:11:35.409 --> 00:11:38.710 broke tomorrow. I'm not going to have a job. I 305 00:11:38.750 --> 00:11:44.210 was always living my life so much so cautiously. That 306 00:11:44.250 --> 00:11:46.470 it took me the longest time. And it didn't happen 307 00:11:46.490 --> 00:11:48.190 until I married my husband that he was like, we're 308 00:11:48.230 --> 00:11:50.990 going to be okay. And I was like, but we 309 00:11:51.009 --> 00:11:53.070 can't buy this house. And he was like, what are 310 00:11:53.090 --> 00:11:55.750 you talking about? He's like, I promise you we can 311 00:11:55.789 --> 00:11:57.919 do this. And I, to this day, have this weird 312 00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:01.620 sense of like. Well, you don't need to buy that 313 00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:03.970 plastic bottle. We have plenty of water in the sink, 314 00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:06.490 and we paid very good money to have it clean. 315 00:12:06.529 --> 00:12:09.529 So get a glass bottle, and you're fine. It's just 316 00:12:09.549 --> 00:12:11.870 the way that– and it's not necessarily healthy. So I 317 00:12:11.889 --> 00:12:14.549 think there's a balance to it that I'm finding. 318 00:12:14.649 --> 00:12:17.230 There's a kind of neuroses that comes with– Possibly. You know, 319 00:12:17.250 --> 00:12:19.379 it's interesting because– Of wastefulness. 320 00:12:19.409 --> 00:12:21.379 It has to do with being not wasteful. I think 321 00:12:21.419 --> 00:12:24.340 if you pinpoint it, I've had a very hard time 322 00:12:24.899 --> 00:12:31.659 being wasteful, whether it's with food or– not to get woo, 323 00:12:31.720 --> 00:12:34.740 but like, you know, earth. Like I'm like, why, what. 324 00:12:34.700 --> 00:12:35.179 Are we doing? 325 00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:37.779 We're such wasteful humans. Like we don't need to do 326 00:12:37.820 --> 00:12:38.500 this to ourselves. 327 00:12:38.559 --> 00:12:41.240 But that's admirable. I, I do, I really do think, 328 00:12:41.259 --> 00:12:42.720 I know you're saying there's a happy medium. I do 329 00:12:42.779 --> 00:12:46.340 think there's definitely something that comes from not being a 330 00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:49.620 citizen of the United States when you're born coming here 331 00:12:50.460 --> 00:12:54.970 and you have, you have a different perspective, famously Bob Hope, 332 00:12:55.350 --> 00:12:58.929 you know, like the, sort of master of ceremonies comedian 333 00:12:58.950 --> 00:13:03.730 of the 20th century, he was incredibly frugal and he 334 00:13:03.750 --> 00:13:08.009 was the richest landowner in California. But when he was 335 00:13:08.049 --> 00:13:11.950 in his late 80s, I know from people firsthand who 336 00:13:12.149 --> 00:13:14.169 were in his life would say, oh, I was with 337 00:13:14.210 --> 00:13:16.720 him at a Carl's Jr. today and he had his, 338 00:13:16.740 --> 00:13:19.769 I took him there and he had his certificates to 339 00:13:19.820 --> 00:13:21.740 get 20% off his Carl's Jr. 340 00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:22.019 Burger. 341 00:13:22.740 --> 00:13:24.820 He's one of the richest men in the history of 342 00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:25.500 American entertainment. 343 00:13:25.519 --> 00:13:28.320 Yeah. And he's got his coupon, and he's 88 years old, 344 00:13:29.379 --> 00:13:32.600 and you want to say, Bob Hope, what's the issue? 345 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:34.299 Well, anyone who's done– you. 346 00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:37.659 Know, when I started reading up about Bob Hope, he 347 00:13:37.700 --> 00:13:42.009 was born to a very poor stonecutter's family in Wales. 348 00:13:42.409 --> 00:13:42.590 Yeah. 349 00:13:42.730 --> 00:13:45.009 He didn't come from the United States. They moved here, 350 00:13:45.049 --> 00:13:46.730 and he was desperately poor when he was a kid. 351 00:13:46.769 --> 00:13:49.929 He never forgot that. It was always, yeah, okay, I 352 00:13:49.950 --> 00:13:53.240 have a billion dollars, and I own most of California, 353 00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:54.690 but– I've got this. 354 00:13:54.929 --> 00:13:55.169 Yes. 355 00:13:55.429 --> 00:13:57.799 I can get 20% off my Carl's Jr. burger, and 356 00:13:57.840 --> 00:13:59.000 I'm not going to screw with that. 357 00:13:59.179 --> 00:14:02.659 I'm a big supporter of Groupon. I have walked into 358 00:14:02.700 --> 00:14:03.700 restaurants with a Groupon. 359 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:04.120 Right. 360 00:14:06.019 --> 00:14:06.820 I use it all the time. 361 00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:10.080 Do you ever get any attitude? Because obviously they know you. 362 00:14:10.100 --> 00:14:12.789 All the time. Why is Mila Kunis using it? 363 00:14:12.789 --> 00:14:14.809 They're like, really? And I was like, yes. So if 364 00:14:14.850 --> 00:14:16.840 I check in, do I still get my 10% off 365 00:14:16.889 --> 00:14:22.720 on this bikini wax? Absolutely. I love shopping online because 366 00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:24.860 I don't get out very much. So I love, I'm 367 00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:29.120 a very good online shopper. I'm also a really great 368 00:14:29.179 --> 00:14:34.590 promo coder. I will find promo codes for everything. We're 369 00:14:34.610 --> 00:14:35.490 building a house right now. 370 00:14:35.509 --> 00:14:35.889 Right. 371 00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:40.419 But I will sometimes, like, our designer will send me, like, 372 00:14:41.019 --> 00:14:42.299 these are the chairs that we need. And I was like, 373 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:44.820 but do we really? Because these seem a little overpriced. 374 00:14:45.179 --> 00:14:46.740 And I will then go online at, like, 2 in 375 00:14:46.779 --> 00:14:50.500 the morning and find, like, coupon codes for similar-looking chairs 376 00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:52.350 and send it back and be like, but what about these?

377 00:14:52.500 --> 00:14:55.230 And she was like, no, no, we're not. So I'm 378 00:14:55.309 --> 00:14:56.929 still doing this. 379 00:14:57.149 --> 00:14:57.809 It's like a. 380 00:14:58.669 --> 00:15:01.610 Those are made of tinfoil. We don't know who made 381 00:15:01.629 --> 00:15:04.490 them in Taiwan. They won't support your weight. You know, 382 00:15:04.529 --> 00:15:08.559 you told me this story once about how when... You 383 00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:13.250 had all these money-making schemes when you were a kid. 384 00:15:13.649 --> 00:15:16.690 And while you were on The 70s Show, you were 385 00:15:16.769 --> 00:15:18.850 still up to some of your money-making schemes. 386 00:15:18.870 --> 00:15:19.009 Yes. 387 00:15:19.289 --> 00:15:23.539 One of them involved T-shirts, and it was hilarious. I 388 00:15:23.820 --> 00:15:26.139 remember it to this day. Yeah, tell me about that. 389 00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:26.919 Okay. 390 00:15:27.889 --> 00:15:29.250 Well, there's an end to that story because I think 391 00:15:29.309 --> 00:15:30.909 I talked about it on your show. 392 00:15:30.929 --> 00:15:31.129 Yeah. 393 00:15:31.169 --> 00:15:33.450 And then I got a video message from the Backstreet 394 00:15:33.470 --> 00:15:37.330 Boys of wanting their 10% off of the t-shirts. 395 00:15:37.450 --> 00:15:39.509 Let's take it back from the beginning because let's just 396 00:15:39.570 --> 00:15:41.570 assume that no one saw that episode. 397 00:15:41.649 --> 00:15:43.129 Okay. Take it from the beginning. 398 00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:46.659 Okay. So I grew up in L.A. So there's a 399 00:15:46.669 --> 00:15:48.559 reason for this. I'm not a transplant, right? I came 400 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.080 here when I was like 7, 8, and I've lived 401 00:15:50.100 --> 00:15:52.120 here my whole life. So my girlfriends, who are still 402 00:15:52.139 --> 00:15:54.519 my friends to this day, I met when I was 403 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:58.799 in second grade and so forth. Um, I have a friend, 404 00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:01.220 her name is Julie. She's still my girlfriend and we're 405 00:16:01.259 --> 00:16:03.960 super close. And we've been friends since we were like 406 00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:07.200 eight or nine. And she's like, she's, if there's Lucy 407 00:16:07.220 --> 00:16:10.240 and Ethel, she's, she's Lucy and I'm Ethel. Like she 408 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:12.539 gets me into trouble all the time. Like she has 409 00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:14.679 these schemes where I'm like, all right, I guess I'm 410 00:16:14.700 --> 00:16:18.019 along for the ride. So when we were in, um, 411 00:16:18.659 --> 00:16:19.980 you know, I mean, there were so many things, I 412 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:21.220 guess I can talk about it now. It doesn't matter. 413 00:16:21.299 --> 00:16:22.879 But okay. So there used to be a mall called 414 00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:23.500 Beverly Center. 415 00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:23.820 Mm-hmm. 416 00:16:24.409 --> 00:16:25.970 And she used to be the manager at a store 417 00:16:25.990 --> 00:16:27.950 called Natural Wonder. It's out of business is the only 418 00:16:27.970 --> 00:16:31.559 reason I can talk about it. And it's a real store. 419 00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:33.980 And she would make me come in because she didn't 420 00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:36.059 want to be there by herself on like Christmas, like 421 00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:38.980 that three weeks of like Christmas shoppers. and make me, quote, 422 00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:41.179 work there so that she would have a friend. So 423 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:42.919 I would put on, like, a brown apron and stand 424 00:16:42.940 --> 00:16:43.899 in the front of the store and be like, would 425 00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:45.000 you guys like the moon rocks? 426 00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:46.039 Totally. 427 00:16:46.259 --> 00:16:47.460 Everything's illegal about this. 428 00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:49.740 Yeah, you're not an employee. 429 00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:51.139 Nope, nope, nope. 430 00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:53.340 And I would, like, ring the register and, like, bum 431 00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:56.470 around the store. That's my friend. So prior to her 432 00:16:56.519 --> 00:16:58.590 having the job in Actual Wonder, or it might have 433 00:16:58.610 --> 00:17:03.129 been during, is when eBay popped up. Like, eBay became 434 00:17:03.190 --> 00:17:05.329 kind of what it just started out becoming. Like, wait, 435 00:17:05.369 --> 00:17:06.609 you can sell items on eBay? 436 00:17:06.630 --> 00:17:06.730 Yeah. 437 00:17:09.049 --> 00:17:11.529 And so we would go to downtown LA and buy, 438 00:17:12.089 --> 00:17:16.039 you know, whatever, for $ 2, like stacks of white t-shirts, 439 00:17:16.059 --> 00:17:20.680 white beaters, and print out on iron paper what was 440 00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:22.799 popular back then, which was Backstreet Boys, which was the 441 00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:25.559 number one selling t-shirt. Or like if it was Christmas, 442 00:17:25.579 --> 00:17:28.559 we'll do any logo for you or NSYNC or whatever 443 00:17:28.599 --> 00:17:31.140 was pop culture relevant or anything that you wanted for 444 00:17:31.180 --> 00:17:33.450 us to print out on Iron-ons. 445 00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:33.839 Right. 446 00:17:33.940 --> 00:17:36.039 And we would iron that on and send it off 447 00:17:36.059 --> 00:17:38.400 through eBay. And we became really popular. 448 00:17:38.420 --> 00:17:42.759 So wait, you had no approval. Zero. And you had 449 00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:44.759 no legal right. 450 00:17:45.140 --> 00:17:46.609 All of this is illegal. Yes. 451 00:17:46.700 --> 00:17:47.670 All of this was illegal. 452 00:17:47.670 --> 00:17:47.809 100%. 453 00:17:47.809 --> 00:17:51.430 Like this, nothing about this was okay. And mind you, 454 00:17:51.450 --> 00:17:54.750 we didn't do drugs. So we were just sober, having fun, 455 00:17:54.789 --> 00:17:56.759 little girls giggling, like iron things on. 456 00:17:56.769 --> 00:17:56.990 What? 457

And we 485 00:19:08.789 --> 00:19:11.970 were so safely bored. Like, we were those kids that were... 486 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:14.200 We weren't self-destructive. Do you know what I mean? Like, 487 00:19:14.220 --> 00:19:17.299 we were 16, but we were still, like, Like nice, 488 00:19:17.339 --> 00:19:21.279 happy-go-lucky girls. At one point, Julie had a car.

It was my first car. 490 00:19:24.700 --> 00:19:27.970 And Julie had a, oh my God, it was like 491 00:19:27.970 --> 00:19:30.369 100 years old. It was like a Toyota CRV, but 492 00:19:30.390 --> 00:19:32.289 I swear it wasn't. It was some version of that, 493 00:19:32.349 --> 00:19:34.750 but also had like 250,000 miles on it. 494 00:19:34.769 --> 00:19:35.549 It was really beat up. 495 00:19:35.890 --> 00:19:40.869 Like so bad. And so we decided we were, this 496 00:19:40.890 --> 00:19:42.390 is not even that funny to

Let's move on to better 703 00:27:47.769 --> 00:27:50.779 areas because I want better for you, for your children. 704 00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:52.160 Okay. 705 00:27:52.559 --> 00:27:56.130 You worked with Ashton for... A long time. And you 706 00:27:56.150 --> 00:27:57.190 were platonic friends. 707 00:27:57.329 --> 00:27:58.289 Super platonic friends. 708 00:27:58.349 --> 00:27:59.529 Like super platonic. 709 00:27:59.569 --> 00:27:59.750 Yeah. 710 00:27:59.869 --> 00:28:01.470 It never occurred to you, oh, this will be the 711 00:28:01.490 --> 00:28:02.269 person I marry. 712 00:28:02.609 --> 00:28:08.039 No. The opposite. I love biology, but I hated chemistry. 713 00:28:09.140 --> 00:28:12.019 Ashton was a chemistry major. So he did my chemistry 714 00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:13.000 homework for me half the time. 715 00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:13.680 Really? 716 00:28:13.700 --> 00:28:16.809 So that's literally our relationship was so brother and sister. 717 00:28:17.289 --> 00:28:17.470 Yeah. 718 00:28:17.890 --> 00:28:22.859 Because when you're 14 and 19, it's such a large 719 00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:25.859 age gap. It really is. 14, 19, you're like, that's 720 00:28:25.900 --> 00:28:29.480 a grown-up. Like, that's gross on both levels. It was 721 00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:31.720 not even a plausible thought. 722 00:28:31.940 --> 00:28:32.140 Right. 723 00:28:32.339 --> 00:28:36.769 So when we reconnected when I was, you know, 27, 26, 27. 724 00:28:36.769 --> 00:28:38.759 Was he 26, 27? 725 00:28:38.730 --> 00:28:39.049 Right. 726 00:28:40.630 --> 00:28:43.730 And 34 at the time, it was totally fine. 727 00:28:43.809 --> 00:28:44.230 Right, right. 728 00:28:44.250 --> 00:28:45.910 Very different reconnection. So you see each other in a 729 00:28:45.910 --> 00:28:47.490 different light. But going back to when I was younger, no. 730 00:28:47.529 --> 00:28:47.869 Not at all. 731 00:28:48.190 --> 00:28:48.450 Yeah. 732 00:28:48.750 --> 00:28:49.430 Not in the slightest. 733 00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:52.559 You know, I've noticed we were talking about what people 734 00:28:52.579 --> 00:28:54.660 are like as parents. What I've observed is that you 735 00:28:54.680 --> 00:28:57.880 guys are– like he's a real physical dad. 736 00:28:58.000 --> 00:28:58.519 Yeah. 737 00:28:58.619 --> 00:29:00.180 And, you know, a lot of people– we now have 738 00:29:00.460 --> 00:29:06.170 science will allow people to have children. The male– and 739 00:29:06.190 --> 00:29:07.829 that's not even so much science, but women can have 740 00:29:07.950 --> 00:29:12.049 children later. But there's a lot of men that will 741 00:29:12.069 --> 00:29:15.200 become a new dad at like 65, and that's part 742 00:29:15.220 --> 00:29:15.660 of the culture. 743 00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:18.180 And I think, you know what? We're kind of meant– 744 00:29:18.440 --> 00:29:19.779 The one thing they don't take into account is we're 745 00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:22.599 meant to throw our kids around, especially the guys. We 746 00:29:22.640 --> 00:29:25.200 are meant to pick up our kids and toss them 747 00:29:25.240 --> 00:29:27.839 in the air and catch them. And one of the 748 00:29:27.880 --> 00:29:30.769 times I was hanging out with you guys, Ashton was 749 00:29:30.809 --> 00:29:34.450 in the background just throwing your children up into the 750 00:29:34.650 --> 00:29:36.630 air and then they'd go up like 10 feet and 751 00:29:36.650 --> 00:29:38.589 then he would catch them. There was a lot of 752 00:29:38.690 --> 00:29:40.660 rough and tumble and I'm that way. way. I like 753 00:29:40.680 --> 00:29:41.119 to do that. 754 00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:45.400 And it's like the one reason that I motivate myself 755 00:29:46.079 --> 00:29:48.400 to try and work

out every day is I want 756 00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:51.369 to be able to tackle my children, even. 757 00:29:51.230 --> 00:29:53.779 When they're 100%. Even when they're grown adults. 758 00:29:53.859 --> 00:29:54.660 Yes, of course you do. 759 00:29:54.720 --> 00:29:56.680 And writers on the show. Like, I'm not even kidding. 760 00:29:56.720 --> 00:29:58.900 I want to be able to tackle people and be 761 00:29:58.920 --> 00:30:00.140 a physical, goofy guy. 762 00:30:00.180 --> 00:30:00.369 Yes. 763 00:30:00.829 --> 00:30:03.130 He's the same. I mean, not to take away from 764 00:30:03.190 --> 00:30:04.829 if you do have children at a later age, I 765 00:30:04.869 --> 00:30:07.309 think all great. But I do think that the greatest 766 00:30:07.369 --> 00:30:11.069 benefit of having a kid at an age where you're 767 00:30:11.130 --> 00:30:15.279 able to be physical is important. it's, I'm not, like, 768 00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:17.700 I'm the same size as my children. Like, you know, 769 00:30:17.799 --> 00:30:18.259 it's not like. 770 00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:20.059 Yeah, I saw him tossing you around a little too. 771 00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:21.619 I think he got confused. 772 00:30:21.660 --> 00:30:25.069 He was like, child, no, wife. I love, I mean, 773 00:30:25.750 --> 00:30:28.210 I play with my kids. We just play differently. Like, 774 00:30:28.289 --> 00:30:29.890 I play pretend with my kids. Not to say that 775 00:30:29.910 --> 00:30:31.430 my husband doesn't, but I play pretend and we're on 776 00:30:31.450 --> 00:30:33.109 the floor and we're playing with trucks and we, you know, 777 00:30:33.470 --> 00:30:35.190 hide and go seek and do all these things. And then, 778 00:30:35.829 --> 00:30:38.309 you know, he comes home and it's a, it's a 779 00:30:38.630 --> 00:30:41.170 fucking jungle gym. Like, it's the greatest thing that can happen. Also, 780 00:30:41.190 --> 00:30:43.230 you get like your piss and vinegar out, like go 781 00:30:43.250 --> 00:30:45.950 play with dad. And you go outside and they, you know, just, 782 00:30:46.210 --> 00:30:48.769 they're crazy. And it's the best thing that could ever happen. 783 00:30:49.069 --> 00:30:50.950 Here's where I get in trouble. I get in trouble, 784 00:30:51.309 --> 00:30:52.450 and I used to get in trouble a lot more 785 00:30:52.470 --> 00:30:55.480 when they were younger, but it would be getting close 786 00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:56.180 to bedtime. 787 00:30:56.259 --> 00:30:57.740 Oh, yes, this happens all the time. 788 00:30:57.819 --> 00:31:01.039 I would come home from doing my late night show, 789 00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:03.059 whichever late night show I was doing at the time, 790 00:31:03.099 --> 00:31:05.619 and I would come home and it was, I'm all 791 00:31:05.720 --> 00:31:07.579 amped up from doing the show and I'm amped up 792 00:31:07.619 --> 00:31:10.250 all the time anyway. And I would come home and 793 00:31:10.329 --> 00:31:11.910 I would chase my kids around. 794 00:31:11.930 -->

00:31:12.549 Right before bedtime. 795 00:31:12.569 --> 00:31:16.519 They'd be shrieking. They'd be punching me. I'd be pretending 796 00:31:16.539 --> 00:31:19.619 to fall down. I'd be getting up, becoming a zombie, 797 00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:21.529 throwing pillows at them. They're throwing pillows at me. And 798 00:31:21.549 --> 00:31:22.750 my wife would be like, what? 799 00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:24.160 Knock it off. 800 00:31:24.400 --> 00:31:25.920 This is me a lot of times. 801 00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:27.839 And they're supposed to be in bed 10 minutes ago 802 00:31:27.880 --> 00:31:30.529 and their heart rates are both at 180, you know? 803 00:31:30.829 --> 00:31:32.180 And, and it was true. 804 00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:34.470 I was being a total, I just couldn't help it. 805 00:31:34.509 --> 00:31:36.170 It was like my crack cocaine. 806 00:31:36.569 --> 00:31:38.970 I learned to be okay with it. The first kid, 807 00:31:39.009 --> 00:31:41.029 I was like, but I, but, but I set the 808 00:31:41.089 --> 00:31:43.049 lights and the tone and the thing and everybody's ready 809 00:31:43.069 --> 00:31:45.109 for a second kid. I really very much. So it 810 00:31:45.130 --> 00:31:47.390 was like, what am I, whatever. Enjoy your kids. Like 811 00:31:47.430 --> 00:31:49.690 it is what it is. And you have 20 minutes go, 812 00:31:49.809 --> 00:31:50.029 you know? 813 00:31:50.170 --> 00:31:50.349 Right. 814 00:31:50.579 --> 00:31:52.440 Because when he was doing his show, he would come 815 00:31:52.480 --> 00:31:55.769 home from pre-shoots at like, if our bedtime was 6.37, 816 00:31:55.769 --> 00:31:57.529 he would come home at 6.15. And I was like, 817 00:31:57.619 --> 00:31:59.650 oh my God. It was either you come home at 818 00:31:59.730 --> 00:32:01.549 five or come home at eight, but do not come 819 00:32:01.609 --> 00:32:02.349 home in between. 820 00:32:02.369 --> 00:32:07.029 In this special hour when children are being put. 821 00:32:06.230 --> 00:32:07.130 Down to sleep. 822 00:32:07.250 --> 00:32:09.650 I know, but now I don't care. Now I genuinely 823 00:32:09.910 --> 00:32:12.549 do not care. I think it's great. I really think 824 00:32:12.569 --> 00:32:15.430 it's so important. It's so important for them to have that. 825 00:32:15.450 --> 00:32:17.619 Because as much as I can do that, It's not 826 00:32:17.660 --> 00:32:20.460 the same. It's just I have different energy. I just do. 827 00:32:20.500 --> 00:32:22.500 Like if they get a– if they hurt themselves, they 828 00:32:22.660 --> 00:32:25.240 naturally run to me. And if they want to go 829 00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:28.190 and play and go ape shit and pretend to be 830 00:32:28.210 --> 00:32:30.569 a zombie or a fish or a dinosaur or whatever, 831 00:32:31.029 --> 00:32:32.769 they definitely go towards him. You know what I mean? 832 00:32:32.809 --> 00:32:33.950 And it's just different play. 833 00:32:34.730 --> 00:32:37.099 Now, there's this thing I want to talk about that– 834 00:32:37.269 --> 00:32:39.390 it's a little bit of a thread I'm finding out 835 00:32:39.430 --> 00:32:42.140 that's running through this podcast, which started as a lark. 836 00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:44.119 And it's turned into this thing that I really love 837 00:32:44.140 --> 00:32:48.930 to do. And that is– this business that we're in, 838 00:32:49.509 --> 00:32:52.869 which fascinates me. And I'm pretty sure you're gonna know 839 00:32:52.890 --> 00:32:56.450 what I'm talking about, but it's a business that attracts 840 00:32:56.490 --> 00:33:00.220 a certain kind of person who very much wants validation 841 00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:04.160 in this very public way. And they want their happiness 842 00:33:04.200 --> 00:33:07.180 to come in this very public forum and they want 843 00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:09.359 it to come, you know, they want the awards, the 844 00:33:09.400 --> 00:33:11.119 things that all of us can get sucked into. 845 00:33:12.079 --> 00:33:13.900 And it's very. 846 00:33:13.740 --> 00:33:17.359 Interesting to me when I'm talking to someone, you in particular, 847 00:33:18.000 --> 00:33:23.019 who's had an incredible amount of success, but I sense, 848 00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:26.059 and I know I'm right, that that's not where you 849 00:33:26.099 --> 00:33:27.119 get your validation from. 850 00:33:27.720 --> 00:33:28.269 Is that correct? 851 00:33:28.349 --> 00:33:28.490 Yeah. 852 00:33:28.509 --> 00:33:34.069 Like that's not what makes you happy or fulfilled. You're proud, 853 00:33:34.089 --> 00:33:36.809 I'm sure, of the stuff that you've accomplished. 854 00:33:36.450 --> 00:33:37.029 And what you've done. 855 00:33:37.029 --> 00:33:39.269 100%, yes. And I work hard at it. 856 00:33:39.349 --> 00:33:39.589 Yes. 857 00:33:39.730 --> 00:33:42.660 So I'm definitely proud and I have, I think, a 858 00:33:42.700 --> 00:33:43.990 healthy amount of ownership over it. 859 00:33:44.259 --> 00:33:44.440 Right. 860 00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:44.779 Yeah. 861 00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:45.579 But then what you. 862 00:33:47.319 --> 00:33:50.160 You seem to be someone who's figured out the thing 863 00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:52.400 that I'm going to say eludes a lot. 864 00:33:52.180 --> 00:33:54.480 Of people in entertainment. 865 00:33:54.740 --> 00:33:57.920 I don't even think people who consume entertainment don't know 866 00:33:57.940 --> 00:34:02.519 how truly unhappy some people are that work in this business. 867 00:34:03.529 --> 00:34:07.119 Because we have such– we have a culture that worships 868 00:34:07.950 --> 00:34:11.030 anyone who's in People magazine and is smiling and wearing 869 00:34:11.349 --> 00:34:12.650 leggings that are selling. 870 00:34:14.750 --> 00:34:15.210 No, you know what I mean? 871 00:34:15.230 --> 00:34:17.510 They're always walking down the street, like holding a coffee, 872 00:34:17.550 --> 00:34:20.449 and it's like rocking these new silver leggings that are 873 00:34:20.469 --> 00:34:22.590 from the JoJo

Jajaba collection. 874 00:34:23.250 --> 00:34:27.530 And, you know, we're talking about, and. 875 00:34:27.090 --> 00:34:29.409 We live in this culture where, well, that person is 876 00:34:29.449 --> 00:34:32.679 to be idolized, whereas you and I have known plenty 877 00:34:32.699 --> 00:34:34.260 of these people. We know a lot of them personally, 878 00:34:34.280 --> 00:34:37.820 and we've worked with them, who are absolutely fucking miserable. 879 00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:39.500 Correct. Depressed. 880 00:34:40.300 --> 00:34:40.760 Depressed. 881 00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:41.039 Yes. 882 00:34:41.579 --> 00:34:45.429 And I almost wanted to, I don't know, like sort 883 00:34:45.449 --> 00:34:47.719 of just shed a light on how– I can't tell 884 00:34:47.739 --> 00:34:50.340 you how many times I drive around this town, Los Angeles, 885 00:34:50.820 --> 00:34:57.599 and see billboards of people beaming happiness. And it says like, 886 00:34:57.679 --> 00:35:01.940 check out blank in their new show or their sitcom 887 00:35:01.960 --> 00:35:03.880 or whatever. And they're giving you that big smile. And 888 00:35:03.900 --> 00:35:06.860 I think, I know that person. And that's not that person. 889 00:35:07.280 --> 00:35:11.119 They're selling you something that's completely wrong about themselves. Yes. 890 00:35:11.530 --> 00:35:11.849 I don't know. 891 00:35:12.449 --> 00:35:14.590 I know. It's a weird thing that I've always talked 892 00:35:14.630 --> 00:35:16.610 about because I think it's always been fascinating for other 893 00:35:16.650 --> 00:35:19.050 people as to why I'm not fucked up. And I 894 00:35:19.150 --> 00:35:24.010 don't know where, what, when. Like, I don't know where 895 00:35:24.030 --> 00:35:26.150 the trajectory went this way. And I clearly went in 896 00:35:26.190 --> 00:35:28.349 this one route and not this route because my friends 897 00:35:28.409 --> 00:35:29.230 did go in this route. 898 00:35:29.469 --> 00:35:31.800 You had friends that got into it. 899 00:35:31.789 --> 00:35:32.050 100%. 900 00:35:32.050 --> 00:35:35.150 Yeah, I've been doing this since I was nine. So 901 00:35:35.190 --> 00:35:37.250 I've had so many of my friends that, especially that 902 00:35:37.289 --> 00:35:39.449 were doing this at a younger age where you're a 903 00:35:39.449 --> 00:35:40.449 little bit more susceptible. 904 00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:43.559 Well, yeah, you know, it's interesting, but there are other 905 00:35:43.619 --> 00:35:47.659 people like you. I've had the privilege of chatting a 906 00:35:47.699 --> 00:35:52.260 couple of times with Jodie Foster, and she is one 907 00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:56.150 of the smartest people I've ever talked to and completely 908 00:35:57.170 --> 00:36:00.909 seemingly unaffected by being Jodie Foster. And she started as 909 00:36:00.949 --> 00:36:04.130 a kid. And you think, how did you get through 910 00:36:04.190 --> 00:36:07.460 that maze? Because so many, you know, to go through 911 00:36:07.480 -->

And I think, but it's rare. 920 00:36:21.260 --> 00:36:21.340 Yeah. 921 00:36:21.780 --> 00:36:25.000 It's really rare. And so it's- It's more. 922 00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:27.820 Rare now that I've allowed, like I don't make friends easily. 923 00:36:27.840 --> 00:36:30.760 I have like my group of friends. I'm perfectly happy 924 00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:33.269 with my little group of friends and- I've had what 925 00:36:33.309 --> 00:36:34.630 I used to coin as like the flavor of the 926 00:36:34.670 --> 00:36:36.230 month where like a new friend would come in for 927 00:36:36.269 --> 00:36:38.010 like a minute and I was like, that's my new friend. 928 00:36:38.050 --> 00:36:39.730 But it really wasn't. Right. 929 00:36:39.750 --> 00:36:42.429 Who tells them it's over? Does someone come in the 930 00:36:42.449 --> 00:36:43.349 room and go, it's over? 931 00:36:43.449 --> 00:36:43.809 It's done. 932 00:36:44.139 --> 00:36:48.239 Your next flavor. I stop like responding. 933 00:36:48.400 --> 00:36:50.300 You leave the room on a happy note and then 934 00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:52.679 someone else comes in the room and says it's over. 935 00:36:52.699 --> 00:36:54.380 Wait, no, she said she was going to get us 936 00:36:54.500 --> 00:36:57.139 ice cream. No, no, no. Just sign this and you're done. 937 00:36:58.340 --> 00:36:59.800 But recently I've been like, you know what? I'm going 938 00:36:59.820 --> 00:37:02.139 to venture out. We're going to like make new friends, whatever. 939 00:37:02.159 --> 00:37:02.320 Cool. 940 00:37:03.110 --> 00:37:05.360 And I've learned that people in this industry and I 941 00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:06.780 have very little in common. 942 00:37:07.340 --> 00:37:07.559 Yeah. 943 00:37:08.719 --> 00:37:11.219 And I don't mean this in a negative way or 944 00:37:12.019 --> 00:37:14.559 in a judgmental way, but just things that I want 945 00:37:14.579 --> 00:37:17.989 to talk about versus things that are of interest to 946 00:37:18.590 --> 00:37:22.409 most people in this industry are very different. But that's 947 00:37:22.429 --> 00:37:24.030 not bad or good. It's just something that I've just 948 00:37:24.070 --> 00:37:24.809 recently realized. 949 00:37:25.070 --> 00:37:29.309 What I realized a long time ago is that– If 950 00:37:29.329 --> 00:37:31.489 you're in this business, and it just doesn't have to 951 00:37:31.530 --> 00:37:34.409 be show business because there's other businesses where this happens too, 952 00:37:34.909 --> 00:37:38.440 but if you tie your self-worth to something that oscillates, 953 00:37:38.460 --> 00:37:43.039 that goes up and down naturally, you're going to be 954 00:37:43.099 --> 00:37:44.360 miserable your entire life. 955 00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:45.139 100%. 956 00:37:45.139 --> 00:37:48.000 So if you're a stockbroker, same thing. 957 00:37:48.420 --> 00:37:52.400 If you're in this business and you make a deal 958 00:37:52.460 --> 00:37:57.780 that I'm going to be totally thrilled– With myself and 959 00:37:57.820 --> 00:38:02.349 my life and my reality, as long as I'm on 960 00:38:02.369 --> 00:38:05.489 the cover of the magazine, but the minute someone else 961 00:38:05.530 --> 00:38:08.809 is on the cover and I'm on page seven, I'm 962 00:38:08.849 --> 00:38:10.590 going to be in the depths of despair. 963 00:38:11.050 --> 00:38:11.530 You're fucked. 964 00:38:11.809 --> 00:38:12.050 Totally. 965 00:38:12.070 --> 00:38:12.949 There's no way out of that. 966 00:38:12.969 --> 00:38:13.190 Nope. 967 00:38:13.550 --> 00:38:15.869 And the whole industry is opinion based. So it's not 968 00:38:15.909 --> 00:38:17.510 even how good your work is. It's just what the 969 00:38:17.530 --> 00:38:18.510 guy next door thinks of it. 970 00:38:18.889 --> 00:38:19.090 Right. 971 00:38:19.550 --> 00:38:22.909 So why make yourself be worth upon some douchebag? Like, 972 00:38:23.090 --> 00:38:25.409 I don't need people I don't know telling me right 973 00:38:25.429 --> 00:38:25.769 from wrong. 974 00:38:26.210 --> 00:38:26.409 Right. 975 00:38:26.880 --> 00:38:27.880 I get enough of it at home. 976 00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:28.579 Yeah. 977 00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:30.840 You know what I mean? Like, I'm cool in that regard. 978 00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:33.139 But I think that that also helps, that I'm not 979 00:38:33.219 --> 00:38:35.739 on social media. So I don't have a constant reminder 980 00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:37.199 of how many likes I have in my life. 981 00:38:37.380 --> 00:38:37.599 Yeah. 982 00:38:38.199 --> 00:38:39.090 Which is very healthy. 983 00:38:39.159 --> 00:38:41.760 Which is really healthy. Now, okay, here's the situation. Now 984 00:38:41.780 --> 00:38:44.030 you're raising these children. Yep. 985 00:38:44.110 --> 00:38:48.349 And their parents are these two, you know, successful, really 986 00:38:48.389 --> 00:38:53.130 successful actors and people in the business. How do you– 987 00:38:53.510 --> 00:38:55.550 convince them to like, no, you're going to churn butter 988 00:38:55.590 --> 00:38:57.599 for a living or you're going to, what are the, 989 00:38:57.909 --> 00:39:00.010 what are the, we probably already started to think about it. 990 00:39:00.030 --> 00:39:01.719 Like you're going to have a job when you're 11. 991 00:39:01.699 --> 00:39:03.320 You're going to, we're going to get, you're going to 992 00:39:03.360 --> 00:39:04.480 work in a stone mill. 993 00:39:04.519 --> 00:39:06.500 She knows exactly what our job's

going to be. We 994 00:39:06.539 --> 00:39:09.599 go to this little deli in LA on Sunday mornings. 995 00:39:09.820 --> 00:39:12.900 There's like diner deli on Sunday mornings for breakfast. And 996 00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:14.579 she's gone there since both the kids have gone to 997 00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:16.639 their little And so she wants to work there with 998 00:39:16.659 --> 00:39:18.360 the waitress. Her name's Gloria. And she was like, I'm 999 00:39:18.380 --> 00:39:19.760 going to come in and work with you here. And 1000 00:39:20.179 --> 00:39:21.719 Gloria's like, great. When you're like nine years old. And 1001 00:39:21.739 --> 00:39:22.929 she's like, okay, I'm going to come here on the weekends. 1002 00:39:22.969 --> 00:39:27.929 We have it all planned out. But, you know, there's 1003 00:39:27.969 --> 00:39:30.199 a funny situation that happened at school. We haven't told 1004 00:39:30.409 --> 00:39:32.719 my kids or we haven't told our kids what we do, 1005 00:39:33.320 --> 00:39:36.179 how it relates to life. I was driving them to 1006 00:39:36.219 --> 00:39:38.239 school one day and there was a billboard with my 1007 00:39:38.300 --> 00:39:42.380 face on it for a movie. And my daughter went, oh, mom. 1008 00:39:43.340 --> 00:39:44.960 And I went, yep. 1009 00:39:45.889 --> 00:39:48.280 Had no, didn't comment, didn't elaborate. And I drove home 1010 00:39:48.300 --> 00:39:49.599 and I was like, I think that at one point 1011 00:39:49.619 --> 00:39:51.219 we're going to have to figure out how to talk 1012 00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:53.380 about this. Because she knows we play pretend for a 1013 00:39:53.420 --> 00:39:55.119 living and that's kind of how we've explained it all 1014 00:39:55.199 --> 00:39:57.989 on like sets and whatnot. So the other day she 1015 00:39:58.010 --> 00:40:00.570 was at preschool and one of the little boys, her 1016 00:40:00.610 --> 00:40:02.590 little friend, walked up to her and goes, I saw 1017 00:40:02.650 --> 00:40:04.750 your mommy and daddy on the cover of the magazine 1018 00:40:04.769 --> 00:40:07.179 when I was at the doctor's office. And I was like, no, 1019 00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:10.550 you didn't. Our daughter. And the little boy was like, yes, 1020 00:40:10.610 --> 00:40:11.929 I did. I saw your mom and dad on the 1021 00:40:11.949 --> 00:40:14.110 cover of the magazine. And so she pushed him and 1022 00:40:14.150 --> 00:40:17.559 was like, no, you didn't. And got very upset about it. 1023 00:40:19.260 --> 00:40:21.659 And so we haven't quite, this is what happened last week. 1024 00:40:21.719 --> 00:40:26.219 We haven't quite addressed that situation of explaining that aspect 1025 00:40:26.239 --> 00:40:28.019 to her. Because he didn't say it in a negative way. 1026 00:40:28.039 --> 00:40:30.440 It wasn't done in like, this kid can't read. It 1027 00:40:30.480 --> 00:40:33.119 was just more like, your mom and dad are everywhere 1028 00:40:33.199 --> 00:40:34.469 type of thing. And my kid's like,

no, they're not. 1029 00:40:34.480 --> 00:40:37.679 They're mine. And you're like, well. One day we're going 1030 00:40:37.699 --> 00:40:38.780 to have to explain this. And so Ash and I 1031 00:40:38.920 --> 00:40:41.559 just literally, so if you have any advice, we literally 1032 00:40:41.599 --> 00:40:45.139 just started discussing how are we going to talk about 1033 00:40:45.659 --> 00:40:48.760 how play pretend affects the rest of our lives. 1034 00:40:48.920 --> 00:40:49.300 Yeah. 1035 00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:56.820 I obviously, I mean, my experience with my kids is 1036 00:40:57.380 --> 00:41:00.519 that they, you know, for a long time I didn't 1037 00:41:00.539 --> 00:41:02.440 want them to know what I did. I really didn't 1038 00:41:02.480 --> 00:41:03.659 want them to know what I did. And I wanted 1039 00:41:03.699 --> 00:41:07.920 just to be the dad that comes home. and takes 1040 00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:11.710 his jacket off and puts his briefcase down from work 1041 00:41:12.530 --> 00:41:14.750 and plays around with them. And for a long time, 1042 00:41:14.769 --> 00:41:16.150 when they're really young, you can get away with that. 1043 00:41:16.349 --> 00:41:19.750 And then I find they notice something's different when they 1044 00:41:19.789 --> 00:41:21.929 realize people coming up to you on the street. 1045 00:41:21.949 --> 00:41:25.210 Well, my kid knows my name. My kids know my 1046 00:41:25.250 --> 00:41:28.530 name is Mila Kunis. No one has ever called me 1047 00:41:28.550 --> 00:41:31.280 Mila Kunis. And so when you go, hey, Bear, what's 1048 00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:34.820 mommy's name? And he goes, Mila Kunis. It breaks my heart. 1049 00:41:35.130 --> 00:41:37.809 Because the only reason he knows my name is because 1050 00:41:37.829 --> 00:41:39.969 somebody at the grocery store said it. Someone at the 1051 00:41:39.989 --> 00:41:41.719 gas station said it. Like it's the only reason that 1052 00:41:41.739 --> 00:41:43.440 they know what my real name is. 1053 00:41:43.739 --> 00:41:43.960 Right. 1054 00:41:44.239 --> 00:41:46.500 It's a really bizarre realization that I had that both 1055 00:41:46.519 --> 00:41:49.219 my kids know my husband and my real full names. 1056 00:41:49.340 --> 00:41:49.519 Right. 1057 00:41:49.539 --> 00:41:50.880 My kids know their parents' names. 1058 00:41:51.360 --> 00:41:51.699 Yeah. 1059 00:41:52.099 --> 00:41:53.579 Well, it's interesting because. 1060 00:41:55.079 --> 00:41:59.809 I've– both my kids, especially my son– are very comfortable 1061 00:41:59.849 --> 00:42:00.510 putting me down. 1062 00:42:00.530 --> 00:42:02.329 I hope that that happens. 1063 00:42:02.349 --> 00:42:03.969 No, no, and it's really good because I. 1064 00:42:03.949 --> 00:42:06.409 Was in a restaurant last night with my son and 1065 00:42:07.090 --> 00:42:09.929 he's 13 and we're having kind of like a guy's 1066 00:42:09.989 --> 00:42:14.539 night out because my wife and daughter were at a show. 1067 00:42:14.880 --> 00:42:17.940 So we're, I'm just talking about it, the two of 1068 00:42:17.980 --> 00:42:19.960 us were getting some, we just got a steak and 1069 00:42:19.980 --> 00:42:23.119 we're talking about stuff and a guy came over to 1070 00:42:23.139 --> 00:42:25.500 the table and he was saying all these, you know, 1071 00:42:26.239 --> 00:42:28.230 nice things to me about my. 1072 00:42:28.190 --> 00:42:29.230 Career and my work. 1073 00:42:29.909 --> 00:42:31.829 And my son was just sort of like smelling and 1074 00:42:31.869 --> 00:42:35.489 shaking his head, sort of like, and he said, the 1075 00:42:35.510 --> 00:42:37.329 guy said something really nice. Like I really, you know, 1076 00:42:37.469 --> 00:42:39.050 I am uncomfortable talking about it, but just. 1077 00:42:39.329 --> 00:42:40.050 He said like a nice thing. 1078 00:42:40.070 --> 00:42:40.739 Very complimentary towards you. 1079 00:42:40.750 --> 00:42:43.489 He was very complimentary towards me. And then my son 1080 00:42:43.530 --> 00:42:45.550 sort of was shaking his head and the guy left 1081 00:42:45.570 --> 00:42:48.409 the table. My son was like, yeah, a lot he 1082 00:42:48.449 --> 00:42:53.059 doesn't know, you know? And it was just really good, like... 1083 00:42:54.059 --> 00:42:58.119 You know, I know the real story, buddy. And I 1084 00:42:58.179 --> 00:43:01.539 love that. I love that he is, I mean, I 1085 00:43:01.579 --> 00:43:04.579 can tell he's, yeah, I can tell he's on some 1086 00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:07.239 level proud of what I'm doing, but he also knows. 1087 00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:09.650 But that's okay. It's healthy to be proud of your parents, right? 1088 00:43:09.690 --> 00:43:11.530 Like that's a good thing to do is to be proud. 1089 00:43:11.550 --> 00:43:13.070 Like I was proud of my dad was a cab driver. 1090 00:43:13.090 --> 00:43:14.889 I never looked at him and was like, so it's 1091 00:43:14.949 --> 00:43:16.090 okay that you were, you know. 1092 00:43:16.329 --> 00:43:16.550 Yeah, yeah. 1093 00:43:16.920 --> 00:43:19.079 But I hope that my kids have their idea, like, oh, 1094 00:43:19.099 --> 00:43:22.059 you think that they're hot shit? Like, I hope that 1095 00:43:22.099 --> 00:43:24.420 my kids are like, no, they're not. That's healthy. That's 1096 00:43:24.480 --> 00:43:29.159 a healthy parent-child relationship. Right. You know? 1097 00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:36.219 Well, I'm just watching, knowing you all these years and 1098 00:43:36.840 --> 00:43:38.420 seeing the way you guys are with your kids, I 1099 00:43:38.460 --> 00:43:40.300 have no doubt that they're going to be fine. 1100 00:43:40.380 --> 00:43:44.000 It's my biggest, like, how do you raise kids in L.A.? 1101 00:43:44.510 --> 00:43:49.070 Doing what we do and not have them turn out miserable. 1102 00:43:50.289 --> 00:43:54.250 I do think there's something to them having to get 1103 00:43:54.349 --> 00:43:56.309 jobs pretty early. 1104 00:43:56.510 --> 00:43:58.190 You know my husband. You

don't think my kids are 1105 00:43:58.210 --> 00:44:01.360 going to– they have jobs now. They literally have– they 1106 00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:03.760 have chores starting at age two in our house. 1107 00:44:03.780 --> 00:44:04.239 Right. 1108 00:44:04.260 --> 00:44:05.619 They're responsible for our dogs. 1109 00:44:06.059 --> 00:44:06.300 Right. 1110 00:44:06.340 --> 00:44:08.079 So they have to feed the dogs. They have to 1111 00:44:08.139 --> 00:44:12.119 walk the dogs. They're literally– they have to make their bed. 1112 00:44:12.539 --> 00:44:14.159 They have to wash their dishes. 1113 00:44:14.179 --> 00:44:14.280 Right. 1114 00:44:14.719 --> 00:44:18.500 They have jobs starting at two. It's a little bit extreme, but. 1115 00:44:18.429 --> 00:44:20.610 I think that- Yeah, I saw your son building a 1116 00:44:20.650 --> 00:44:22.690 stone wall. 1117 00:44:22.769 --> 00:44:23.929 And it was for the city. It was for the 1118 00:44:23.989 --> 00:44:25.809 city of Los Angeles. 1119 00:44:26.090 --> 00:44:27.079 Did he have sunblock on it? 1120 00:44:27.190 --> 00:44:27.630 No, he didn't. 1121 00:44:27.730 --> 00:44:28.489 Oh, okay. 1122 00:44:28.510 --> 00:44:31.019 He didn't.

I want them bringing 1133 00:44:49.610 --> 00:44:50.090 me drinks. 1134 00:44:50.630 --> 00:44:52.570 My daughter can bring you a drink no problem today. 1135 00:44:52.869 --> 00:44:54.989 We have a little fridge that she knows how to open, 1136 00:44:55.130 --> 00:44:56.530 and she'll bring you a beer. 1137 00:44:56.550 --> 00:44:57.530 That's fantastic. 1138 00:44:57.550 --> 00:44:59.179 Ashton goes, can you get Daddy a beer?

like, I do not think they have. No, 1150 00:45:14.219 --> 00:45:16.849 I don't think they aspire. I don't think they aspire 1151 00:45:16.869 --> 00:45:19.349 to that. I think they're in a good way. I 1152 00:45:19.849 --> 00:45:21.550 think they're growing up slowly. And I know there are 1153 00:45:21.570 --> 00:45:23.989 people listening right now that are saying, oh, man, you're 1154 00:45:24.010 --> 00:45:25.070 so you don't get it. 1155 00:45:25.110 --> 00:45:26.079 Of course, they've had a drink. 1156 00:45:26.119 --> 00:45:27.940 And I'm thinking, oh, no, I believe I don't think 1157 00:45:27.960 --> 00:45:30.099 they I don't think they I don't think they have. 1158 00:45:30.880 --> 00:45:32.619 They smoke a ton of weed. 1159 00:45:34.039 --> 00:45:35.699 I've seen your daughter on vacation studying. 1160 00:45:36.219 --> 00:45:38.019 Yes, she does.

The sad 1169 00:45:52.690 --> 00:45:54.210 thing is it's a little familiar to me because I 1170 00:45:54.250 --> 00:45:54.909 was kind of like that. 1171 00:45:54.929 --> 00:45:55.449 Were you like that? 1172 00:45:55.510 --> 00:45:55.730 Yeah. 1173 00:45:55.989 --> 00:45:58.050 I was a bit of a freak as a child. 1174 00:45:58.829 --> 00:46:02.320 But that's the curse. That's why I have absolutely no 1175 00:46:02.360 --> 00:46:03.179 exposure to the sun. 1176 00:46:03.559 --> 00:46:04.440 And I'm in my 50s.

Oh, Jesus. Oh, my husband's here. 1183 00:46:18.630 --> 00:46:21.610 Your husband's here peering in the window. Is he going 1184 00:46:21.630 --> 00:46:22.909 to come in and say hello or is he just 1185 00:46:22.929 --> 00:46:23.739 going to be back there? 1186 00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:24.070 I don't know. 1187 00:46:24.090 --> 00:46:25.300 Are you going to come in?

Let's just 1313 00:51:03.219 --> 00:51:05.579 let that sink in for our listeners. 1314 00:51:05.940 --> 00:51:06.800 Her name is Welford. 1315 00:51:07.380 --> 00:51:10.760 Her name is Welford. She's lovely. 1316 00:51:11.360 --> 00:51:15.940 Listen, I'm not disparaging your mother, but some

people probably 1317 00:51:15.980 --> 00:51:17.800 accuse me of being hard on you, Gorley. 1318 00:51:17.880 --> 00:51:18.980 I think most people, yeah. 1319 00:51:19.019 --> 00:51:19.119 Oh. 1320 00:51:19.820 --> 00:51:20.400 Maybe half. 1321 00:51:20.739 --> 00:51:23.059 Maybe sometimes think that I'm overly tough on Gourley and 1322 00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:26.860 that I portray him as this kind of slackerish fop. 1323 00:51:27.739 --> 00:51:28.079 And then. 1324 00:51:28.099 --> 00:51:30.449 Well, you can't be a fop and a slacker. 1325 00:51:30.869 --> 00:51:35.329 Okay, let's change that. Again, fresh off the plane from Ghana. 1326 00:51:35.750 --> 00:51:36.070 Tired. 1327 00:51:36.190 --> 00:51:37.210 Came back on Monday. 1328 00:51:37.510 --> 00:51:37.849 Silence. 1329 00:51:39.889 --> 00:51:42.280 You can't just say silence. It's so wrong. 1330 00:51:42.320 --> 00:51:42.719 Silence! 1331 00:51:43.679 --> 00:51:45.000 I got that in an old sci-fi movie. 1332 00:51:45.019 --> 00:51:45.159 Silence! 1333 00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:45.599 Silence! 1334 00:51:46.199 --> 00:51:49.619 No, many people have accused me of maybe being a 1335 00:51:49.619 --> 00:51:52.650 little tough on you because I portray you, you've always 1336 00:51:52.690 --> 00:51:57.570 felt unfairly, as sort of a twee, fussy fop with 1337 00:51:57.909 --> 00:52:03.289 his little mannerisms, his collection of eBay presidential memorabilia. And 1338 00:52:03.329 --> 00:52:05.179 I thought, okay, maybe I'm being too tough on him. 1339 00:52:05.639 --> 00:52:09.360 And then last week, you reveal that you got to 1340 00:52:09.420 --> 00:52:14.360 run because... you have to go sketch in the park 1341 00:52:14.579 --> 00:52:17.619 with your mother, whose name is Welford. I happen to know, 1342 00:52:17.639 --> 00:52:19.260 because I have friends that listen to the podcast. One 1343 00:52:19.280 --> 00:52:21.059 of them called me up this morning and said that 1344 00:52:21.099 --> 00:52:24.860 his jaw dropped off. His jaw dropped off when he 1345 00:52:24.900 --> 00:52:27.760 heard that. He said he was walking down the west 1346 00:52:27.820 --> 00:52:30.800 side of Manhattan and his jaw fell off and clattered 1347 00:52:30.949 --> 00:52:33.489 on the sidewalk, then fell down into a grate. 1348 00:52:33.829 --> 00:52:36.269 So now his jaw is gone. So anyway, that really happened. 1349 00:52:36.289 --> 00:52:37.889 You really do that. And that's something you do regularly. 1350 00:52:37.989 --> 00:52:39.809 Well, we do it a few times a year, whenever 1351 00:52:39.849 --> 00:52:40.130 we can. 1352 00:52:40.550 --> 00:52:40.750 Yeah. 1353 00:52:40.929 --> 00:52:41.210 Yeah. 1354 00:52:41.289 --> 00:52:43.340 So you mentioned that you wanted to talk to her, 1355 00:52:43.550 --> 00:52:45.280 and I thought maybe we could get her on the line, 1356 00:52:45.320 --> 00:52:47.639 and you can maybe get to the bottom of the 1357 00:52:47.679 --> 00:52:49.280 truth of this all, if you really want to

know 1358 00:52:49.380 --> 00:52:50.579 where this is all coming from. 1359 00:52:50.599 --> 00:52:53.000 I am definitely my mother's son. I'm a mama's boy, 1360 00:52:53.059 --> 00:52:54.019 so this would be it. 1361 00:52:54.159 --> 00:52:55.099 Oh, you a mama's boy? 1362 00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:55.659 I know. 1363 00:52:55.719 --> 00:52:56.360 It's a surprise. 1364 00:52:56.380 --> 00:52:57.260 Oh, okay. 1365 00:52:57.500 --> 00:52:59.570 No, it's all right.

Oh my God. 1385 00:53:41.480 --> 00:53:43.760 I thought you were, I thought this was like a 1386 00:53:43.820 --> 00:53:48.960 character actress playing the part of Matt Gourley's mom, but 1387 00:53:49.000 --> 00:53:50.199 you really are his mom. 1388 00:53:50.659 --> 00:53:51.800 I am his mom, yes. 1389 00:53:52.429 --> 00:53:55.869 Well, let me, may I call you Welford?

Maybe they just had distaste for him. Well, anyway, 1409 00:54:46.719 --> 00:54:48.590 I won't go there. That seems cruel. Do you know 1410 00:54:48.619 --> 00:54:50.349 what my mother calls me, and I'm not kidding? 1411 00:54:51.070 --> 00:54:51.630 No, I don't. 1412 00:54:52.340 --> 00:54:52.920 Well, you shouldn't. 1413 00:54:53.780 --> 00:54:59.559 It was just, it was a rhetorical question. No, my 1414 00:54:59.590 --> 00:55:01.030 mother calls me pigeon pie. 1415 00:55:01.429 --> 00:55:01.789 What? 1416 00:55:02.150 --> 00:55:02.389 Yeah. 1417 00:55:02.710 --> 00:55:04.429 My mother will still to this day, I'll call up 1418 00:55:04.469 --> 00:55:05.809 and I'll go, hello, Ma, it's Conan. 1419 00:55:05.829 --> 00:55:07.829 And she'll say, well, hello there, pigeon pie. 1420 00:55:07.989 --> 00:55:09.989 Oh, that's all I'm ever going to call you now. 1421 00:55:10.389 --> 00:55:13.570 Hey, yes, you can do that right up until the 1422 00:55:13.590 --> 00:55:15.739 moment you're- You honestly know that's a term of endearment. 1423 00:55:17.010 --> 00:55:20.440 I think so, or else she's very hungry and will 1424 00:55:20.480 --> 00:55:24.860 eat anything. Well, I wanted to talk to you about 1425 00:55:24.900 --> 00:55:28.679 your son, Matt Gorley. You know him as Matt Gorley. 1426 00:55:29.260 --> 00:55:35.030 We just call him Monty. But let me ask you something, Welford. 1427 00:55:35.429 --> 00:55:38.789 Last week, Matt mentioned that it's a regular practice. Both 1428 00:55:38.829 --> 00:55:42.050 of you like to go to the park together at 1429 00:55:42.070 --> 00:55:44.210 an appointed time, and you like to sketch. 1430 00:55:44.750 --> 00:55:45.329 Is that correct? 1431 00:55:46.110 --> 00:55:46.590 Oh, yeah. 1432 00:55:48.050 --> 00:55:49.130 How long have you been doing this for? 1433 00:55:50.250 --> 00:55:52.519 I would say maybe about four times now. 1434 00:55:53.320 --> 00:55:55.119 Can I ask you some questions? Does Matt wear a 1435 00:55:55.139 --> 00:55:55.760 big sun hat? 1436 00:55:59.510 --> 00:56:00.389 No, he doesn't. Okay. 1437 00:56:00.750 --> 00:56:01.989 That's interesting to know. 1438 00:56:02.010 --> 00:56:03.190 He is a great artist, though. 1439 00:56:03.349 --> 00:56:04.170 Is he a good artist? 1440 00:56:04.289 --> 00:56:05.269 Oh, she's the best. 1441 00:56:05.389 --> 00:56:05.550 Oh. 1442 00:56:05.829 --> 00:56:06.389 She's amazing. 1443 00:56:06.409 --> 00:56:09.170 No, no, no. He is so much better. The last 1444 00:56:09.230 --> 00:56:11.739 time we went sketching, I didn't even want to look 1445 00:56:11.800 --> 00:56:14.800 at his drawing until I had finished mine because I 1446 00:56:14.840 --> 00:56:19.079 would have stopped doing mine. It's an architectural type of style, 1447 00:56:19.119 --> 00:56:23.500 but very light and airy, and mine is very detailed. 1448 00:56:23.519 --> 00:56:25.719 Can I just say that it seems like you both 1449 00:56:25.800 --> 00:56:29.639 have– A beautiful, special, and loving relationship, and it's making 1450 00:56:29.670 --> 00:56:34.449 me sick to my stomach. I've never gone sketching with 1451 00:56:34.510 --> 00:56:37.969 my mother. I've never gone sketching with my father. In fact, 1452 00:56:38.010 --> 00:56:40.429 my father and I have not made eye contact since 1453 00:56:40.489 --> 00:56:41.909 the Lyndon Johnson administration. 1454 00:56:43.219 --> 00:56:44.039 I want you to know that. 1455 00:56:44.179 --> 00:56:44.440 Yeah. 1456 00:56:44.659 --> 00:56:47.079 I don't know whether to laugh or to say that's sad. 1457 00:56:47.420 --> 00:56:50.960 No, it's just how we are as Irish Catholics. This 1458 00:56:51.059 --> 00:56:53.679 is clearly, I'm guessing, what is your denomination, if you 1459 00:56:53.699 --> 00:56:54.360 don't mind me asking? 1460 00:56:54.619 --> 00:56:56.280 Denomination? Yes. Religious? 1461 00:56:56.409 --> 00:56:57.849 Yes, yes. Your background. 1462 00:56:57.889 --> 00:56:58.750 Protestant. 1463 00:56:58.829 --> 00:56:59.570 Protestant, so. 1464 00:57:00.010 --> 00:57:01.469 And no, I am not for Trump. 1465 00:57:03.590 --> 00:57:05.869 Well, this is, I'm sorry. That's my mom. 1466 00:57:05.909 --> 00:57:08.789 Welford, this is not a robocall. Did you think this 1467 00:57:08.829 --> 00:57:11.880 was a robocall for Trump? I don't think many people 1468 00:57:11.900 --> 00:57:13.519 who go to the park to sketch are for Trump. 1469 00:57:13.760 --> 00:57:14.280 That's true. 1470 00:57:15.579 --> 00:57:18.500 So tell me, you say that, what kinds of things 1471 00:57:18.719 --> 00:57:21.559 are you guys drawing? What's Matt drawing, for example? What's 1472 00:57:21.579 --> 00:57:22.199 he sketching? 1473 00:57:22.440 --> 00:57:27.110 Well, we're sketching unique houses, buildings. We went to Pio 1474 00:57:27.150 --> 00:57:31.570 Pico Mansion in Pico Rivera and sketched one of the buildings. 1475 00:57:31.590 --> 00:57:33.550 I'm not sure if it was the mansion or not. 1476 00:57:33.670 --> 00:57:35.369 Let me ask you something. 1477 00:57:36.329 --> 00:57:40.269 Does Matt ever sketch people or is it always architectural shapes? 1478 00:57:41.139 --> 00:57:43.619 Um, I'm sure he's sketched people before. 1479 00:57:43.760 --> 00:57:45.289 But you haven't seen it. Let me tell you where 1480 00:57:45.309 --> 00:57:49.010 I'm going with this, Welford. It's a known fact that 1481 00:57:49.090 --> 00:57:53.260 people who only sketch architecture do so because they feel 1482 00:57:53.760 --> 00:57:59.579 removed and isolated from humanity. Adolf Hitler famously only painted 1483 00:57:59.739 --> 00:58:03.500 and sketched architecturally. And he was quite

competent at it. 1484 00:58:03.519 --> 00:58:08.170 When asked to portray humans, he had great difficulty. This 1485 00:58:08.230 --> 00:58:12.449 probably belied some kind of deep-felt frustration and alienation, which 1486 00:58:12.510 --> 00:58:14.130 led to him destroying half the world. 1487 00:58:14.369 --> 00:58:17.070 Anyway, what I'm trying to— Well, I know Matt has 1488 00:58:17.210 --> 00:58:18.250 sketched people. 1489 00:58:17.989 --> 00:58:20.250 Before he— Yes, but can I just say something, Welford? 1490 00:58:20.289 --> 00:58:24.300 He did so against their will. And— I looked up 1491 00:58:24.340 --> 00:58:29.570 the police records in Los Angeles, and seven times your 1492 00:58:29.670 --> 00:58:33.809 son has been arrested and detained for sketching women that 1493 00:58:33.829 --> 00:58:37.909 were sunbathing against their will. Were you not aware of this? 1494 00:58:38.289 --> 00:58:40.530 Well, I think I did see his poster in the 1495 00:58:40.590 --> 00:58:41.659 post office once. 1496 00:58:41.760 --> 00:58:45.059 Very nice. Oh, my God. You have the improv gene. 1497 00:58:45.139 --> 00:58:48.400 Yes, Ann. Thank you. Thank you very much. I see 1498 00:58:48.440 --> 00:58:49.360 now where Matt gets it. 1499 00:58:49.710 --> 00:58:53.269 Well, you know what? I make my jokes, and I. 1500 00:58:52.610 --> 00:58:55.639 Like to, as Sona calls it, she says, oh, you're 1501 00:58:55.679 --> 00:58:59.280 quite the josh-ter. You like your joshing and your jesting. 1502 00:58:59.300 --> 00:59:00.300 That's what Sona always says. 1503 00:59:00.340 --> 00:59:00.820 Yes, she does. 1504 00:59:02.199 --> 00:59:04.750 But I think it's very sweet that you have this 1505 00:59:04.789 --> 00:59:07.769 relationship with your son, and I'll admit to being a 1506 00:59:07.789 --> 00:59:09.590 little jealous, because. 1507 00:59:10.219 --> 00:59:12.300 Oh, Pigeon Pie, you should come along sometime. 1508 00:59:12.539 --> 00:59:13.059 Yeah. 1509 00:59:13.639 --> 00:59:15.980 I would love to, if you mentioned Pigeon Pie one 1510 00:59:16.000 --> 00:59:16.440 more time. 1511 00:59:16.460 --> 00:59:19.059 I think I heard on your podcast with Billy Eichner 1512 00:59:19.099 --> 00:59:21.480 that you wanted to come to the park one time 1513 00:59:21.519 --> 00:59:22.670 when we were sketching and. 1514 00:59:22.940 --> 00:59:24.739 I would like to come sometime, and I would like 1515 00:59:24.780 --> 00:59:26.480 to see Matt sitting there. 1516 00:59:26.719 --> 00:59:27.440 What kind of sunglasses? 1517 00:59:27.460 --> 00:59:31.309 Does he wear like a vintage sort of late 50s sunglasses, 1518 00:59:31.409 --> 00:59:35.230 those kind that have the flip-up lens, flip-up shade? 1519 00:59:35.610 --> 00:59:36.989 I really have no idea. 1520 00:59:37.110 --> 00:59:39.010 Oh, you don't look at your son ever, huh? 1521 00:59:39.349 --> 00:59:43.500 Maybe that's why you strictly sketch architectural forms rather than 1522 00:59:43.539 --> 00:59:46.380 a human being, Welford. You see, you and your son 1523 00:59:46.480 --> 00:59:50.760 suffer from the same malady, an inability to truly bond 1524 00:59:50.780 --> 00:59:51.659 with another human being. 1525 00:59:52.110 --> 00:59:53.719 Now, we're bonding with each other, right, Mom? 1526 00:59:54.010 --> 00:59:55.900 Yeah, I wouldn't give it up for the world. 1527 00:59:56.619 --> 00:59:58.679 What was Matty like when he was a little boy? 1528 00:59:58.719 --> 01:00:02.900 Was he always out there collecting butterflies? What kind of 1529 01:00:02.940 --> 01:00:03.590 fellow was he? 1530 01:00:03.889 --> 01:00:06.809 Well, he was very funny, funny all the time. 1531 01:00:06.969 --> 01:00:12.079 Oh, so what happened?

He had made his own films 1535 01:00:22.710 --> 01:00:25.849 with Star Wars characters and the like.
