00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:19,350
Um well, first I want to say uh I want
to see you soon on Hot Ones. Yeah,

19
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,319
we've been trying for years. I I met him

20
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:24,719
in the green room of a UFC fight in

21
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,798
Vegas and I was like, "Dude, I'm a big

22
00:01:26,799 --> 00:01:29,118
fan." He's like, "I'm a big fan, too." I

23
00:01:29,119 --> 00:01:31,039
was like, "Well, then what the fuck?"

24
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,078
Like, "Let's let's do it." Uh, yeah. Oh,

25
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:36,719
I'm I'm done. Would you do it?

26
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,910
[Music]

27
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,879
My question though was uh alltime

28
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,999
favorite director and why?

29
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:58,879
Wow. Uh Jensen would love to answer this first first
time. Uh

30
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,798
I don't know. That's a tough one.

31
00:02:00,799 --> 00:02:06,199
There's like there's probably

32
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,478
probably
there's there's a good three, four or

33
00:02:09,479 --> 00:02:12,799
five that I I it would be hard to kind

34
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,439
of rank those above or below.

35
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,719
Um, I'll say I'll pick

36
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,279
one because I think that

37
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,159
uh I I think I had the most time working

38
00:02:29,239 --> 00:02:32,399
with him as as him as a director, he's an

39
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,039
him as as him as a director, he's an
actor and also um he was also

40
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,839
responsible for the other guys coming up

41
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,999
in the industry. So the other directors

42
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,559
that are in that top five, he was their

43
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,799
mentor. And so he's been kind he's kind

44
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,799
of the the the patriarch of of a lot of

45
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,639
supernatural. And that would be Bob

46
00:02:54,730 --> 00:02:58,430
Singer. [Applause]

47
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,079
Um you know, he was uh he was he was the

48
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,719
parent on set. He was the he was the big

49
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:09,119
papa and Elfe as some people called him.

50
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,999
and um and he was a he really was a

51
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,639
mentor to uh almost that entire

52
00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:20,238
production. Um from from us to the crew

53
00:03:20,239 --> 00:03:21,679
to other directors that would come

54
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,039
through um and everyone just held him in

55
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,719
the highest regard and had the utmost

56
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,639
respect for him and I learned so much

57
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:32,238
from him. Um he wasn't he wasn't a

58
00:03:32,239 --> 00:03:34,559
teacher in the in the traditional sense.

59
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,958
He wouldn't sit you down and say this is

60
00:03:36,959 --> 00:03:38,079
these are things you need to look out

61
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,759
for. These are these are these are

62
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,279
things this is wisdom that I've learned

63
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,679
that I want to pass on. It was just his

64
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,399
way of being that you just learned from.

65
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,958
And and so I think that uh as as a

66
00:03:50,959 --> 00:03:52,639
director because that was his role, but

67
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,199
more as just somebody that that I

68
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,839
learned from for 15 years. Um it would

69
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,238
it would be uh it'd be hard not to say

70
00:04:02,239 --> 00:04:06,518
I'm a singer. Uh I agree totally. And

71
00:04:06,519 --> 00:04:11,438
uh but and to his point

72
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:13,438
uh that's the easy way out. Yeah. What

73
00:04:13,439 --> 00:04:15,119
he said.

74
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,719
Thank you. Uh no I I think I had time to

75
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,358
think about what he was answering and

76
00:04:21,359 --> 00:04:23,359
totally true. Like there are probably

77
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,239
five or six directors that if I were to

78
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,719
get like he has 35 jobs currently and 48

79
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,839
shows that he's the leader of. Um, but

80
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:35,599
I'm not really working right now. I

81
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:41,390
mean, other than Toronto, the

82
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,119
boys like Phil Sichia and I love Nina

83
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,839
Lopez Curado and I love rest in peace

84
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:51,959
Kim Manners and rest in peace Charles.

85
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,198
Yes, John. Each director brings out something

86
00:04:57,199 --> 00:04:59,999
John. Each director brings out something
different. And so I will say with with a

87
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,559
TV show like Supernatural that goes for

88
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,959
9 months, like somebody like Phil

89
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,159
Sigrea, he started out as an editor and

90
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,119
so he wants as much as possible. And to

91
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,799
his credit, like when you're shooting

92
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,038
with Phil, you can just try out whatever

93
00:05:15,039 --> 00:05:17,999
you want. And Phil is famous, well

94
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,879
infamous for Eye of the Tiger. You know,

95
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,399
he's just like, "Let the cameras roll.

96
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:23,679
Let's see what happens." And then he

97
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,159
gets on the freaking Paula and starts

98
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,839
playing the light guitar.

99
00:05:28,840 --> 00:05:32,719
Um, you know, not Yeah. Not a lot of

100
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,319
directors would have kept the cameras

101
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,399
rolling. So, he may have still done the

102
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,918
same thing, but we wouldn't have been

103
00:05:37,919 --> 00:05:40,719
able to share it with the world. Um, and

104
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,079
then there are some directors that I

105
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,799
work with him Steve Robin on Walker and

106
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,239
he's have my blood. Um, but he's like a

107
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,758
family first guy. like if someone's

108
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:52,239
having a something happening at home,

109
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,758
he's like, "Get we'll figure it out."

110
00:05:53,759 --> 00:05:55,359
Like family first, like we're playing

111
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,079
pretend. Um, so there's so many. It'd be

112
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,478
difficult, but I've learned a lot from,

113
00:06:00,479 --> 00:06:04,359
you know, Bob and Kim and Steve and

114
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,478
Phil. There there's so many. That's a

115
00:06:06,479 --> 00:06:09,239
great question. You wrote that one.

116
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,478
I'm so welcome to Sweden at any point.

117
00:06:12,479 --> 00:06:14,638
I've been to Sweden. I went to Scotland.

118
00:06:14,639 --> 00:06:17,399
When? I went uh

119
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,839
last summer. I was the museum. So

120
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:26,230
they're like, "Yes, you

121
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,599
I have it here in my journal."

122
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,189

won't come out. My

130
00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:01,119
question more an advice request for

131
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,679
everyone that can relate with that s

132
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,399
such as myself. um focusing on the

133
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,399
development of your work along the

134
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,719
years, not just as SE and Dean, but your

135
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:15,038
careers um is how to thrive um through

136
00:07:15,039 --> 00:07:17,598
the difficulties and the problems that

137
00:07:17,599 --> 00:07:19,519
we can find along the way, not just in

138
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,719
the cinematic graphic industry, but in

139
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,839
the development of all jobs. Uh not

140
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,799
allowing it to become like the biggest

141
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,159
part of our lives.

142
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:37,070
Just a easy one for you. We want you

143
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:43,038
to clarify how to sorry to to rephrase

144
00:07:43,039 --> 00:07:45,439
to make sure I understand correctly. You

145
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:50,239
mean how to focus on like a work life

146
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:55,598
balance or Yeah. Oh gosh. Um, thank you

147
00:07:55,599 --> 00:07:58,318
for that question. I certainly don't

148
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,878
know. Uh, I think something I

149
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:07,198
Uh, I think something I
realized early on, it's funny cuz now,

150
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:09,918
and I keep saying this, I'm 42. Uh, I've

151
00:08:09,919 --> 00:08:11,918
been doing this since I was 17. And for

152
00:08:11,919 --> 00:08:14,239
a long time, I was always the youngest

153
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,878
person in the room. My friends were all

154
00:08:16,879 --> 00:08:19,119
older. Uh, I was the youngest guy on

155
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,878
set. I was the little brother. I was

156
00:08:20,879 --> 00:08:24,878
this, I was that. And it feels like uh

157
00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:27,519
or it felt like still at times feels

158
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,318
like it felt like, okay, I'm going to do

159
00:08:30,319 --> 00:08:33,439
this so that I can live my life someday.

160
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,518
Um you know, I'm going to save up some

161
00:08:35,519 --> 00:08:38,398
money and build a career so that I can

162
00:08:38,399 --> 00:08:41,038
sit on a porch and have a glass of wine,

163
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:43,918
a cigar, and whatever. Um and then at

164
00:08:43,919 --> 00:08:45,759
some point in time, somebody said this

165
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,919
to me. They were like, "Don't don't wait

166
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,879
for life. Life is right now." Like it's

167
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,759
the As I woke up this morning and my

168
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,759
buddy sent me a clip of Rocky uh of

169
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,079
Apollo Creed going there ain't no

170
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,239
tomorrow. There ain't no tomorrow. And

171
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,479
it was like a motivational scene, but

172
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,999
it's kind of true, right? Like just

173
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,799
don't don't wait for life to happen.

174
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,679
This is life, you know? So whether it's

175
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:16,719
your career and so I don't have a a big

176
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,799
quantity of time I can spend with my

177
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,479
kids, with my wife, with my friends,

178
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,479
with whatever. So I just try and

179
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,799
increase the quality as much as I can of

180
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,679
everything I do. Uh it's tiring for

181
00:09:27,680 --> 00:09:31,518
sure, but it's rewarding uh beyond uh

182
00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:34,159
measure. So just remember that you're

183
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:35,919
you like don't wait for life. Live it

184
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:50,119
now. Tomorrow's my promise. Yeah, Yeah,
[Music]

185
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:55,230
similar. What do you

186
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,039
say? Um, no. I It is an important

187
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,559
question because a lot of people can get

188
00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:02,879
lost with with either or, you know, they

189
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,879
can get so involved in their personal

190
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,398
life where their work suffers or they

191
00:10:06,399 --> 00:10:07,759
get so involved with work that their

192
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,599
personal life suffers. And it is a it is

193
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,919
a delicate balance. Um, you know, I've I

194
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,479
have found that I'm fortunate enough to

195
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,278
my work as something that I truly love.

196
00:10:19,279 --> 00:10:21,518
And so I don't I don't necessarily view

197
00:10:21,519 --> 00:10:23,999
it as work all the time. I, you know, if

198
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,958
I step back and look at it from a from a

199
00:10:26,959 --> 00:10:32,518
a macro lens, it is it is

200
00:10:32,519 --> 00:10:35,518
uh it it it is an artistic kind of

201
00:10:35,519 --> 00:10:37,439
expression. And so I get to go and I get

202
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,119
to do this thing that that allows me to

203
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,679
uh flex my, you know, my personal those

204
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:47,119
personal muscles and that artistic

205
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,559
muscles and the stuff that really means

206
00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:50,879
something to me. And I I I derive a lot

207
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,999
of joy out of being on set and

208
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,999
collaborating with talented people and

209
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,398
and other artists. And so,

210
00:10:59,399 --> 00:11:02,319
um, the only downside to that is that I

211
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,879
can't be in two places at once because I

212
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,159
also love being at home with with my my

213
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,879
family and and with my friends and and

214
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,359
and that fills me with a lot of joy as

215
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,838
well. So, like Jared said, I think it's

216
00:11:15,839 --> 00:11:18,559
really just being present and whenever

217
00:11:18,560 --> 00:11:20,159
you're doing what you're doing, making

218
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,398
sure that you you do it because you want

219
00:11:22,399 --> 00:11:24,559
to do it. You're there because it means

220
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:25,759
something to you and you're getting

221
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,319
something out of it.

222
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,919
Um, but it's there's there's never an

223
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,919
easy answer for that because there's

224
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,719
always going to be um a struggle with

225
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,599
with needing more time. Um, and I just

226
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,518
try to make sure that the time that I am

227
00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:44,599
spending doing whatever I'm doing, then

228
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,479
I'm present and I am getting joy out of

229
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:53,599
it. Um, and and that's that's I mean

230
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,679
that works for me at least I think it

231
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:02,470
does. Thank you. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you.

232
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,479
I I I think to this point to what we

233
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,359
were talking about um part of it also

234
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,359
and I I'll I'll carry on. Part of it

235
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,719
also is like reward yourself. I mean, I

236
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:17,199
we are aware and wildly appreciative

237
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,518
that y'all have gone to work for a year

238
00:12:21,519 --> 00:12:24,638
to save money and dedicate time to do

239
00:12:24,639 --> 00:12:26,719
something fun. Like, [h__h] do it.

240
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,719
Like, we're here. Like, you know, you

241
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:29,999
not like, "Oh, I'll do it next year.

242
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,078
I'll do whatever." Like, do it. Be here.

243
00:12:32,079 --> 00:12:33,919
[h__h] around. Have fun. Like, have a good

244
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:41,670
time. Smile.

245
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:44,398
Um, I would like to know, we all know

246
00:12:44,399 --> 00:12:47,398
what Sam and Dean think of the

247
00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:52,078
convention season five. What uh do you

248
00:12:52,079 --> 00:12:54,078
think the Sam and Dean versions from the

249
00:12:54,079 --> 00:12:57,398
other de dimension in season 15 would

250
00:12:57,399 --> 00:12:59,638
think they would

251
00:12:59,639 --> 00:13:02,879
be here tonight? Feel free to act it

252
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:10,629
out. [Applause]

253
00:13:10,639 --> 00:13:17,949
Come on, you can do it.

254
00:13:17,959 --> 00:13:21,518
Uh, the salmonine and 15 were the the

255
00:13:21,519 --> 00:13:23,518
purple suit and the private jets.

256
00:13:23,519 --> 00:13:27,999
Private jet and the bun. And the bun. No

257
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,638
beer. Lots of buns. No beer. No. No.

258
00:13:30,639 --> 00:13:32,078
They don't like the beer at first. Oh

259
00:13:32,079 --> 00:13:36,310
[h__h] But then

260
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,949
what's your problem with that? Yeah.

261
00:13:40,959 --> 00:13:44,078
Um, that's a good question. Uh, I want

262
00:13:44,079 --> 00:13:45,518
to surround myself with a lot of people

263
00:13:45,519 --> 00:13:49,359
like Sam and Dean in Bizaro World season

264
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,119
15. Uh, for a reason probably. Uh, but,

265
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,398
uh, they they probably be they wouldn't

266
00:13:56,399 --> 00:13:58,958
Bizarro Sam wouldn't like my outfit. He

267
00:13:58,959 --> 00:14:02,439
likes the high. I have that suit by the

268
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,439
way. I think when Supernatural ended,

269
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:06,559
uh, they were like, "Hey, do you want

270
00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:08,799
any, you know, like props from show or

271
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,319
wardrobe?" Like, "We're never going to

272
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,278
use this again." A weird sized guy

273
00:14:13,279 --> 00:14:14,879
anyways. And they made it from being

274
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,439
like high, what do you call it? Highers,

275
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,319
like pants, the pants that don't

276
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,518
high. And now they're like back in

277
00:14:23,519 --> 00:14:25,999
style. If you have pants that don't go

278
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,078
your ankle, so maybe I should pull it

279
00:14:28,079 --> 00:14:30,559
out and wear it.

280
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,629
What are you talking about?

281
00:14:34,639 --> 00:14:38,319
I think we also talk about fashion. So,

282
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,518
he's already there. Yeah. I think I

283
00:14:41,519 --> 00:14:44,958
Here's what I think. I think that uh uh

284
00:14:44,959 --> 00:14:47,119
Bizarro Sam, can we call him that?

285
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,078
Bizaro Sam. Alter universe Sam. Um he's

286
00:14:50,079 --> 00:14:51,919
probably a hypochondric, so this would

287
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,479
scare the [h__h] out.

288
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,239
He wouldn't like it at all. I think the

289
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,119
bizarro de would probably say, "Wait a

290
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,198
second. There's hundreds of beautiful

291
00:15:01,199 --> 00:15:04,979
women that want to hug me.

292
00:15:04,980 --> 00:15:24,398
[Applause] Thank you.

293
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:27,999
Thank you.
Sorry everybody.

294
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,599
Hi. How are you? Hi. I'm really good. Uh

295
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,359
I'm asking the same question to

296
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,919
everybody here. Uh and the question is

297
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,638
should I pass the mic around?

298
00:15:38,639 --> 00:15:40,638
Uh the question is what's the most

299
00:15:40,639 --> 00:15:43,759
memorable or fun uh gift that you got

300
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,679
from the fan?

301
00:15:48,079 --> 00:15:50,078
Oh, and I hope you don't go like Misha did

302
00:15:50,079 --> 00:15:53,559
and I hope you don't go like Misha did
and creepy pictures of your houses and

303
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,819
friends. I hope it's not that

304
00:15:59,340 --> 00:16:00,799
[Music] [Applause] [Applause]
[Music]

305
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,919
the you said the best. Well, I'm hoping

306
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,398
for the best, but if you have She also

307
00:16:06,399 --> 00:16:08,879
said you said best or most memorable.

308
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,439
And to that I have an answer.

309
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,198
That's there was a picture we received one time

310
00:16:16,199 --> 00:16:20,159
there was a picture we received one time
um it was pre chat GBT pre AI or

311
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,799
whatever but it was well photoshopped

312
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,078
um of me and Jensen and Misha and Brock

313
00:16:26,079 --> 00:16:28,479
Kelly as a matter of fact uh engaged in

314
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:34,030
a certain

315
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,559
act may have been the inspiration for

316
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,790
Rob's character.

317
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,638
So I don't know the most special but

318
00:16:42,639 --> 00:16:47,790
that was the most

319
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,679
memorable. So if you have anything like

320
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:55,670
that give it to him.

321
00:16:55,680 --> 00:17:00,310
It'll be so memorable.

322
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,999
Um, I'll say uh there isn't one

323
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,918
specifically cuz there's been a few of

324
00:17:05,919 --> 00:17:07,759
them, but the ones that I've been the

325
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:13,999
most uh um interested in, I would say,

326
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,438
has been photo albums that I have gotten

327
00:17:17,439 --> 00:17:20,558
from from some of you that have have

328
00:17:20,559 --> 00:17:23,519
really been like a walk through time.

329
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,599
Uh, and there's really been some

330
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,838
thoughtful ones put together of, you

331
00:17:27,839 --> 00:17:31,519
know, every convention or or every job

332
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,319
that I've had or, you know, anything

333
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,519
that I've any any kind of personal

334
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,038
photos that were put out there or

335
00:17:39,039 --> 00:17:40,719
something. There's just been some

336
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,879
there's some very talented people and

337
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:44,798
artists and stuff amongst this fandom

338
00:17:44,799 --> 00:17:47,119
that have created some really brilliant

339
00:17:47,120 --> 00:17:49,918
things and and we've been fortunate

340
00:17:49,919 --> 00:17:52,079
enough to to be on the receiving end of

341
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,759
that artistry many many times. And to

342
00:17:55,760 --> 00:18:00,319
not only to not only uh appreciate the

343
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,918
time and the effort and the skill that

344
00:18:01,919 --> 00:18:03,519
it took to put something together like

345
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,359
that, but also it kind of takes us down

346
00:18:05,360 --> 00:18:07,918
memory lane in a beautiful way. And so

347
00:18:07,919 --> 00:18:10,558
um I I've been fortunate enough to

348
00:18:10,559 --> 00:18:12,558
receive a few of those in the past and

349
00:18:12,559 --> 00:18:14,639
and they're really they're just a lot of

350
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,038
fun to kind of flip through and and look

351
00:18:17,039 --> 00:18:18,959
at all the the things that that we've

352
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,899
done and how far we've

353
00:18:20,900 --> 00:18:26,430
[Music]

354
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,879
come. And just in case uh this is like

355
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,599
Tik Tok or Snapchat or whatever and

356
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,839
makes it to the worldwide web, I'd like

357
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,558
to answer on behalf of both of us. Um,

358
00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:40,639
the most special things we've ever

359
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:45,909
received were like our Rolexes, our

360
00:18:45,919 --> 00:18:48,798
um, just fiat currency, you know,

361
00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:54,950
Bitcoin. Uh,

362
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,918
uh, I saw you saying that the moment you

363
00:18:57,919 --> 00:19:00,639
open your mouth, I was like, I know

364
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,279
where this is going.

365
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,678
Free cars, houses, jets. Well, you said

366
00:19:05,679 --> 00:19:10,159
Fiats, so Yeah. Carpenter, how are you?

367
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,399
Good morning. How are you? Good morning.

368
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,038
Afternoon. Afternoon. And hi, my name is

369
00:19:15,039 --> 00:19:16,719
Sh. I was here 2 years ago. I took a

370
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,399
picture with you as a mermaid and I got

371
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,079
a wonderful confession from you, Jensen,

372
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,918
that you were actually a mermaid before

373
00:19:21,919 --> 00:19:23,359
and that was wonderful. So, thank you

374
00:19:23,360 --> 00:19:31,990
for that movie.

375
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:43,430
And now I have Sorry. [Applause]

376
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,999
And now I have a game for you to play. I

377
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,999
know that you've watched the episodes a

378
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,918
bunch of times and now I would like No,

379
00:19:49,919 --> 00:19:51,999
we haven't.

380
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,678
We have not. I have not. Have you

381
00:19:53,679 --> 00:19:55,279
watched Have you watched every episode

382
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,519
of Supernatural?

383
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,639
Every single one.

384
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:01,719
I don't think

385
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,759
everyone I don't think I've sat and

386
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,999
watched everyone from from beginning to

387
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,999
end, but I probably like 98% I have.

388
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,918
Okay, so I'll make it easier for you. I

389
00:20:11,919 --> 00:20:14,639
have a list of episodes really. I have a

390
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,798
I'm going to name five episodes and it's

391
00:20:16,799 --> 00:20:18,239
going to be a competition between you

392
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:19,918
guys. Whoever knows what happened in

393
00:20:19,919 --> 00:20:28,470
that episode first wins. [Applause]

394
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,279
I just want to just say that um my

395
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,678
long-term memory is not what it used to

396
00:20:33,679 --> 00:20:37,678
be largely because it has been removed

397
00:20:37,679 --> 00:20:40,158
to make room for my short-term memory

398
00:20:40,159 --> 00:20:43,038
which serves me in my job much greater

399
00:20:43,039 --> 00:20:45,839
than remembering something I did 15

400
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:50,678
years ago. He however is a freak of

401
00:20:50,679 --> 00:20:53,319
nature and has a bigger

402
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,759
head. As a matter of fact, he doesn't

403
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,639
even know what his name is right now.

404
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,639
Do it. Do it. Let's do it. Okay.

405
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,239
Question number one, which is very

406
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,319
important to all of us. What happened in

407
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:12,990
the episode Jess Bell? No.

408
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,479

416
00:21:33,120 --> 00:21:35,119
episode because he was trying to explain

417
00:21:35,120 --> 00:21:36,599

418
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:48,279

00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:17,590
Is that the Reaper?
Oh, was that the hospital? No.

443
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,519
She doesn't know why. She can't see him.

444
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,959
So he's I remember I I remember from

445
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,959
Gabriel moving her hand when it was when

446
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,149

the cup [Applause] review.

449
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,918
Okay, two more two more episodes. Okay,

450
00:23:55,919 --> 00:24:05,830
let's go. Dark Side of the Moon. [h__h] boy.

451
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,119
The Wizard of Oz.

452
00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:15,599
No, just kidding. I don't know. Dark S.

453
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,999
Dark S.
What season?

454
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:27,510
11.

455
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,918
Dean goes to heaven.

456
00:24:29,919 --> 00:24:32,158
We both go to heaven. We both go to

457
00:24:32,159 --> 00:24:35,199
heaven. Yes.

458
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,719
And there's a moon.

459
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:39,719
But it's

460
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,038
dark. Close your eyes.

461
00:24:43,039 --> 00:24:46,719
We all die. Go to heaven.

462
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,038
Memories. It was right. Yeah. I was

463
00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:51,439
going to say that. But I think the

464
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,070
audience gets a point.

465
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,479
So, okay. One more. One more. I think I

466
00:24:58,480 --> 00:24:59,839
think we're all tied up. We have two

467
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:01,918
ties. I have one win. He has one win.

468
00:25:01,919 --> 00:25:03,439
And the audience has tied tiebreaker.

469
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,359
Here we go. All right. Last one. What

470
00:25:05,360 --> 00:25:08,158
are we going to choose? Uh, okay. So,

471
00:25:08,159 --> 00:25:18,029
free to be you and me.

472
00:25:18,039 --> 00:25:22,319
Ah, it was you and me.

473
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,199
We were free

474
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:26,999
to

475
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:32,199
me. Am I close? Season 8.

476
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:39,710
Six. 5 3 2 1 15

477
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,918
13. That wasn't my third. No, not until

478
00:25:43,919 --> 00:25:52,710
before the end. I got nothing. Kane.

479
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,599
Oh my god.

480
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,479
All right. So Sam and Dean break up and

481
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,439
Sam Rosen have his own fictional own

482
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,199
adventure and then Oh Sam has a

483
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,959
fictional subject. No

484
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,999
fictional English is not my first

485
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,038
language. You had an adventure with

486
00:26:11,039 --> 00:26:12,798
hunters that got you and tried to feed

487
00:26:12,799 --> 00:26:14,879
you demon blood and Dean went with cats

488
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,639
and you met everyone. We went to this

489
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,870
sounds like 80

490
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:40,750
episodes also remember it was story [Applause]

491
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,038
time. How are you? I don't like that

492
00:26:43,039 --> 00:26:49,909
game.

493
00:26:49,919 --> 00:26:51,479
By the way, we are

494
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,479
officially over five

495
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,639
essentially at the end. Anyways, hi.

496
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,879
Hi. Hi. It's lovely to see you here

497
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,999
again. I'm Anna. Um, the last time I

498
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,879
asked a question about iconic lines, um,

499
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,879
and I'm going to save that for later,

500
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,038
but um, I wanted to ask about executive

501
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,399
producing. you've both been executive producers

502
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,839
you've both been executive producers
now. Um, and I wanted to hear maybe one

503
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,678
one instance where you were pleasantly

504
00:27:19,679 --> 00:27:22,319
surprised about the role even though

505
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,119
after doing 15 years on Supernatural

506
00:27:25,120 --> 00:27:27,278
um, and one instance where you were

507
00:27:27,279 --> 00:27:29,119
quite challenged and you didn't actually

508
00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:31,599
expect that to be so challenging. You

509
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,999
mean as far as cuz we we did an EP

510
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,839
Supernatural. No, no. As executive

511
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,519
producers in the world. Oh, I see what

512
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,918
you mean. Okay. Got it. Got it. since

513
00:27:41,159 --> 00:27:45,678
God. Um, okay. So, having seen the industry

514
00:27:45,679 --> 00:27:49,199
Um, okay. So, having seen the industry
as EPs, what we think about some of the

515
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,798
things that happened in Supernatural,

516
00:27:50,799 --> 00:27:52,558
what's what was one thing that kind of

517
00:27:52,559 --> 00:27:54,479
surprised you positively and what was

518
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,759
one thing that kind of surprised you

519
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,719
negatively as as an EP? Yeah. Okay.

520
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,398
Positively. Thank you, J. Yeah.

521
00:28:03,399 --> 00:28:06,558
Um, I'll I'll start. I think one of the

522
00:28:06,559 --> 00:28:09,558
things that surprised me

523
00:28:09,559 --> 00:28:12,319
positively was reassuring was that there

524
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,119
were so many things by the time the

525
00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:17,319
script got to us in Vancouver

526
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,398
Supernatural. Um there were fires that

527
00:28:20,399 --> 00:28:23,199
we could put out on set and for a long

528
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,398
time we didn't have an EP full-time in

529
00:28:26,399 --> 00:28:29,199
Vancouver. We kind of were you we like a

530
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,999
rose by the name Smell Sweet. We were on

531
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:36,798
set putting out fires. Um so the

532
00:28:36,799 --> 00:28:39,759
knowledge that if you get involved early

533
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:41,798
enough you can

534
00:28:41,799 --> 00:28:46,798
not you know burden set with it um what

535
00:28:48,279 --> 00:28:51,199
surprised me negatively and I mean this and I say

536
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,719
me negatively and I mean this and I say
this to young actors and actresses um is

537
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,278
finding out how silly the casting

538
00:28:57,279 --> 00:29:01,038
process can be. It's like, "Oh, person

539
00:29:01,039 --> 00:29:04,239
number one is [h__h] perfect for the

540
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:05,798
character. Oh my god, what a

541
00:29:05,799 --> 00:29:07,839
performance." Um, and then you get a

542
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,839
phone call from the studio or network

543
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,038
like, "Uh, no, they have brown hair."

544
00:29:13,039 --> 00:29:15,278
Like, so you really And so maybe it's

545
00:29:15,279 --> 00:29:17,199
like justification for myself. Honestly,

546
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:18,639
like we've been through the same thing.

547
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,479
Too tall, too short, too black, too

548
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,519
white, too big, too small. Uh, green

549
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,199
eyes, blue eyes, whatever.

550
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,918
Um, sorry. I'm sorry. It is, but it's

551
00:29:29,919 --> 00:29:32,239
frustrating. But also, you know, as an

552
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:33,999
actor who I've been on a thousand

553
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,158
auditions and I'm considered successful

554
00:29:36,159 --> 00:29:39,678
cuz I booked 20 of them. Um, going like,

555
00:29:39,679 --> 00:29:42,239
"Oh, maybe it's not." And I met we both

556
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,519
and he directed many episodes of

557
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,158
Supernatural. And then we'd work with

558
00:29:47,159 --> 00:29:49,359
somebody couple seasons later who was

559
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,119
like, "Oh, yeah, Jensen, I direct I

560
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,038
auditioned for whatever." And he'd say

561
00:29:53,039 --> 00:29:54,798
to me like, "God, I remember that." and

562
00:29:54,799 --> 00:29:57,359
she was the best or he was the best, but

563
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,678
they weren't available for the second

564
00:29:59,679 --> 00:30:01,278
Friday or something. And so you lose a

565
00:30:01,279 --> 00:30:03,038
role. You don't find that out as an

566
00:30:03,039 --> 00:30:05,278
actor. You just find you lost the role.

567
00:30:05,279 --> 00:30:06,719
And so it's hard to say to somebody

568
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,398
like, "Hey, you were my choice, but

569
00:30:10,399 --> 00:30:12,558
you're the same height as this person or

570
00:30:12,559 --> 00:30:14,798
you're Jared's a giant." You wanted to

571
00:30:14,799 --> 00:30:16,479
get back to the person that did get the

572
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,199
role that they weren't the choice,

573
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,639
you know? So it's you kind of have to

574
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,479
cover your your Yeah. The politics

575
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:23,839
tracks, you know. I think we were

576
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,558
fortunate for many years uh especially

577
00:30:26,559 --> 00:30:29,439
on screen that we just got it and we got

578
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,678
to pretend and make art. We didn't have

579
00:30:31,679 --> 00:30:33,119
to deal with the politics and so the

580
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,599
politics of it are unfortunately real.

581
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:36,959
Uh and you just hope that whoever you

582
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,558
hire has the the wherewithal to to deal

583
00:30:40,559 --> 00:30:43,119
with it like he I would never want him

584
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,319
to know that he was the second choice to

585
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,999
to play on the fourth and and turn it to

586
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,719
me. uh they just let me

587
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,239
choose and Barry Watson wasn't

588
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,038
available. Yeah, that's that's kind of

589
00:30:59,039 --> 00:31:00,879
where I said it's it's the negative is

590
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,278
it's a lot more political beforehand

591
00:31:03,279 --> 00:31:05,759
than you realize. The positive is that

592
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,199
you can make a difference. At least you

593
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:11,439
can be proactive before Yeah. Yeah. Um

594
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,639
I'd say the positive uh is is the

595
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,999
collaborative aspect of it from a from a

596
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,158
an early standpoint. So like Jared said,

597
00:31:20,159 --> 00:31:21,678
when we would get the script and we

598
00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:23,678
would be on set, he and I would be

599
00:31:23,679 --> 00:31:26,158
collaborative about how to get how to

600
00:31:26,159 --> 00:31:28,719
get done what it is what what in the

601
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,278
script says that we need to get done. So

602
00:31:31,279 --> 00:31:34,239
we have a you know we we we have a

603
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,158
mission and that is the script and it is

604
00:31:36,159 --> 00:31:37,839
up to us and the directors and crew to

605
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,278
figure out how to accomplish that

606
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,439
mission. The collaborative aspect as an EP is

607
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,599
The collaborative aspect as an EP is
collaborating on coming up with the

608
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,879
mission. And so that has always been

609
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,759
what I've enjoyed most about film making

610
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,959
and and when I'm on set and stuff is

611
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,079
collaborating with other uh artists and

612
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,879
and thoughtful minds and coming up with

613
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,319
best case scenarios and um and that's

614
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,079
just really fun. uh it it kind of gets

615
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:07,839
it it gets that kind of team building

616
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,798
sense uh that I really enjoy. The the

617
00:32:10,799 --> 00:32:12,959
downside of of executive producing is

618
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,079
that you are dealing with people within

619
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,639
your camp which is the the other writer,

620
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,239
the other producers, but you're also

621
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,479
dealing with the studio and they have a

622
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:23,999
lot of opinions. You're dealing with the

623
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,999
network, they have a lot of opinions. So

624
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,038
you have so many cooks in the kitchen

625
00:32:29,039 --> 00:32:31,439
and navigating that and making sure

626
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,759
everybody is heard and feeling like

627
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,119
their their opinions are validated and

628
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:41,278
reflected in the script is really can be

629
00:32:41,279 --> 00:32:45,359
difficult to do. Um and and when people

630
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,199
have opinions on certain things like

631
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,558
whether it's a story line or whether

632
00:32:48,559 --> 00:32:49,918
it's a character or whether it's a

633
00:32:49,919 --> 00:32:52,398
casting. I I will say that in the

634
00:32:52,399 --> 00:32:54,038
process of doing the

635
00:32:54,039 --> 00:32:57,518
Winchesterers, the most frustrated I got

636
00:32:57,519 --> 00:33:00,278
and the most kind of

637
00:33:00,279 --> 00:33:04,798
um vocal I got in my frustration was

638
00:33:04,799 --> 00:33:08,398
about the casting process. And I had to

639
00:33:08,399 --> 00:33:11,918
really I mean I I thankfully he ended up

640
00:33:11,919 --> 00:33:15,038
getting the role, but uh they they

641
00:33:15,039 --> 00:33:17,319
drugged Drake along for quite a while

642
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,999
without signing off on him. And it got

643
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,918
to a point where he was doing chemistry

644
00:33:21,919 --> 00:33:25,439
reads like twice a week with a variety

645
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,278
of different actresses. And thankfully

646
00:33:27,279 --> 00:33:29,599
Meg was our choice and she ended up

647
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,678
getting it. But they wanted to see more.

648
00:33:31,679 --> 00:33:32,959
They were like, "Okay, that's great, but

649
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,599
we want to see more options." And they

650
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,759
kept they kept asking for more options

651
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,879
for for a lot of the roles. And it was

652
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,359
like we had already kind of made our

653
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,359
choice. Like we knew who we wanted and

654
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:46,798
they just kind of kept wanting to see

655
00:33:46,799 --> 00:33:48,398
options and options and options and

656
00:33:48,399 --> 00:33:50,558
options. And finally I was like this is

657
00:33:50,559 --> 00:33:52,558
ridiculous and this has got to stop. Why

658
00:33:52,559 --> 00:33:54,079
do you think that was? Because when we

659
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:56,959
look at Dre like it's just perfect.

660
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,359
Yeah. Well I you know because a lot of

661
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,119
times there's people that there's maybe

662
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:05,599
one person that's like I don't see it or

663
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,519
you know he's Yeah. He's I I wanted a

664
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,439
blonde hair. I had in my mind that the

665
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,519
guy was blonde or I had in my mind that

666
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,398
that he, you know, was this or it was

667
00:34:16,399 --> 00:34:20,878
that or so, so that's, you know, and

668
00:34:20,879 --> 00:34:22,959
when they're the studio execs or when

669
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,158
they're the people that are head of

670
00:34:24,159 --> 00:34:25,678
production or head of this or that, you

671
00:34:25,679 --> 00:34:27,358
know, they do have a voice and they and

672
00:34:27,359 --> 00:34:29,519
it should be it should be heard and you

673
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,078
have to listen to them. Um, and you

674
00:34:32,079 --> 00:34:33,439
don't have to agree with them, but you

675
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,519
do have to listen. And so it's sometimes

676
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,559
it was very frustrating for me to

677
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,239
navigate those situations and I I did

678
00:34:40,240 --> 00:34:42,959
get a little uh I finally kind of blew

679
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,358
my top and I've got a long fuse as Jared

680
00:34:45,359 --> 00:34:47,838
will tell you and they found the end of

681
00:34:47,839 --> 00:34:49,999
it when it was in the casting process

682
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,878
and um I don't know whether it was well

683
00:34:52,879 --> 00:34:56,078
it was funny enough when I got we'll

684
00:34:56,079 --> 00:34:58,119
call it passionate

685
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,399
[Music] about about the casting process and and

686
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,199
about about the casting process and and
the actors that we

687
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,799
Um, I think that is what tipped the

688
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,719
scale. They said they were like, "Okay,

689
00:35:08,720 --> 00:35:10,319
the fact that you're this passionate

690
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,279
about these two people gives us the

691
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,118
confidence to go ahead and sign off on

692
00:35:15,119 --> 00:35:20,270
them." And I was like, "Thank

693
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,559
you." Um, so that was

694
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,759
frustrating. And but again, that's all

695
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,358
part of it. And it was, you know, my

696
00:35:27,359 --> 00:35:29,279
first time doing it. I probably should

697
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:30,799
have handled myself with a little more

698
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,598
grace. Uh, and now that I know that

699
00:35:33,599 --> 00:35:35,439
that's what that process can be like,

700
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,759
I'll probably attempt, you know, when I

701
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,519
when I get another chance to do that,

702
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,598
I'll have a maybe a little bit more.

703
00:35:41,599 --> 00:35:42,559
See, I've been telling you this for

704
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:49,109
years. Just lose your temper earlier.

705
00:35:49,119 --> 00:35:57,349
Uh, Anna, thank you so much.

706
00:35:57,359 --> 00:36:01,199
How are you? Hi. Hi. Um, so I was the

707
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,479
last question at JIC last year and I

708
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,159
asked all of you the question, what was

709
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:07,598
the dumbest way you ever injured

710
00:36:07,599 --> 00:36:09,759
yourself? And everyone answered except

711
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,199
for Jensen because he set it up

712
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,039
perfectly and then he got cut off by

713
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,879
music. So hopefully there was nothing

714
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,910
else.

715
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,838
So please tell us your

716
00:36:21,839 --> 00:36:25,679
It was It was so So the question is,

717
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,439
have I ever gotten injured? What's the

718
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,399
dumbest way you ever Oh, the dumbest way

719
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:31,919
I've gotten. You said something about

720
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,039
Vancouver and your chin and it was a

721
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,919
dark day. Oh, yeah. That was that

722
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:39,838
probably ranks up there as one of the

723
00:36:39,839 --> 00:36:43,118
dumbest, if not the dumbest. It was uh I

724
00:36:43,119 --> 00:36:47,279
was at a friend's house and it it it was

725
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,358
yeah time to go home. It was late and I

726
00:36:49,359 --> 00:36:50,239
was like, "All right, I'm going to go

727
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:52,239
downstairs and and I think at that time

728
00:36:52,240 --> 00:36:54,159
it was taxi. I don't even think Uber was

729
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,799
still like maybe just starting out. So,

730
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:58,399
I was like, I'm going to go I'll call a

731
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,799
cab. I went downstairs. He was in a like

732
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,078
an apartment building. And I went

733
00:37:02,079 --> 00:37:04,799
downstairs and was on the the street.

734
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,719
And I was like literally just kind of

735
00:37:06,720 --> 00:37:08,719
like, you know, on my phone like waiting

736
00:37:08,720 --> 00:37:10,959
for the cab to show up and it was

737
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,838
drizzling kind of wet. So, the sidewalks

738
00:37:13,839 --> 00:37:15,759
and everything were wet. And there was a

739
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,319
a a planter like a you know, just like a

740
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:22,159
a builtup kind of brick planter with

741
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,319
plants and stuff. It was maybe about

742
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,759
that high. And I was just, you know,

743
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:29,199
wasting time. And I thought I would just

744
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,670
kind of hop up on

745
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:35,358
it. I didn't notice that the top of it

746
00:37:36,839 --> 00:37:40,959
was curved and it was wet. And so when I

747
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:44,279
curved and it was wet. And so when I
when I jumped up on it, my foot

748
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,319
went and my face

749
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,759
went I don't even know where. Like I I

750
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,479
guess my arm went into the dirt and

751
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,639
didn't it didn't catch it didn't catch

752
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,078
my face. So my my chin hit the brick

753
00:37:59,839 --> 00:38:03,199
mortar from like a jump scar. Oh yeah. I got a

754
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,439
from like a jump scar. Oh yeah. I got a
scar scar right there in my chin. U

755
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,919
split me wide open. Blood all over my

756
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,199
shirt. And then the cab driver showed up

757
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,349
and he was

758
00:38:14,359 --> 00:38:18,719
like and he left. He left. So I then had

759
00:38:18,720 --> 00:38:21,679
to call an ambulance and an ambulance

760
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,118
picked me up and took me straight to the

761
00:38:23,119 --> 00:38:25,598
hospital and I got stitched up. So that

762
00:38:25,599 --> 00:38:27,598
was pretty stupid.

763
00:38:27,599 --> 00:38:30,959
Yeah. Thank you. Thank you.

764
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,838
That's it. That's all we have time for

765
00:38:32,839 --> 00:38:35,118
today. That's all we have time for for

766
00:38:35,119 --> 00:38:39,919
right now. We shall return.

767
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:44,719
What? Okay. I'm I'm signing off.

768
00:38:44,720 --> 00:38:48,239
Final words. Final words. All right.

769
00:38:48,240 --> 00:38:50,699
Thank you very much.

770
00:38:50,700 --> 00:38:54,219
[Applause]
