of my It's like one of my all time favorite movies.
I didn't know that ever ever, Like I loved it,
and so I will never forget. There was like a
(01:50):
day that you were listening to KISFM the Morning Show
and you posted something on Instagram and I was like,
oh my gosh. I was like, Jennifer love Hewitt knows
my name. And then after that, yeah, somehow we became
like Instagram besties.
Speaker 5 (02:03):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
And I remember when my now fiance and I broke up,
you sent me like a Valentine's Day like balloon bouquet
and like she was just like so sweet, and so
I really truly felt like we were like this internet besties.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Well, I felt really close to you because they did
listen to the Morning Show, and so I was always
like following along with what was happening with all of
you guys, right, and so I knew about the relationship
and like I think it was listening like the first
time they said his name and like, you know whatever.
So so then when I saw that you had your
heart broke, and I was like, oh no, this cannot happen.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
Like she gets me through my mornings, I have to
get her through this. So that's why I sent you
the stuff. And then it was it.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Like meant so much to me that you reached back
out and yeah, I think the world of view and
you know that. And I'm really excited that you're you're
getting married soon and all of that.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
She posted the like the Valentine's Day thing and she
said Jennifer Love Hewett and I'm like the Jennifer.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Love humans say Valentype's Day.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Okay, Like what.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
But you really you kind of are like I feel
like when I think about the holidays, like every holiday,
I think of you, like I feel like you're like
the fairy godmothers a lot.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Thank you so much. That is how it should be.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Do you celebrate every Are you like one of those
people who every holiday there's a celebration around it.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
In my in my book, I actually have like the
holiday Junkie calendar and it shows that for me, there's
like thirty five different holidays, whereas normal people just celebrate
like five a year.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
I'm like, it's Thursday, and today it's National Donut Day.
We should have a party. Today's actually National Christmas Cookie Day.
I don't know if you guys know that.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Yeah, so celebrate, do something, Go to Susie's Cakes and
get a cookie or something on me.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
It'll be really fun. But but yeah, no, I love
celebrating all things.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
I mean, we're only here once, and we're here for
you know, nobody knows how long, so we might as
well be having the best time while doing it.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Well, I mean you just let us write into talking
about your book what was the inspiration because it's basically
like you talking about celebrating holidays and moments of life,
and what was the inspiration behind it.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
So I lost my mom almost thirteen, Well, I'll be
thirteen years ago in June, and it was she was sick,
but it was not expected that she would go that quickly.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
We lived across the street from each other.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
We had breakfast together every morning, dinner together every night
when I wasn't working or doing things, and she was.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
My absolute world.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
But she was also the most magical person I knew
on the planet. And when she passed, I remember, oddly,
in like the first forty eight hours, my very first
thought was, well, that's it. I will never know anything
magical ever again, like it's gone. And so quickly after
she passed and sort of like putting my life back
(05:00):
together and all of that, I found out that I
was pregnant with our daughter, and my husband and I
got married, and I realized that I couldn't sit our
first Christmas in the grief that I was feeling when
I had to do something for my new family. And
so it struck me that I was left that magic
from her and that I could be magical. I just
had to find it, you know, within myself. And so
(05:22):
that's why the book is called Inheriting Magic. And so
I kind of started really embracing the holidays in like
an all new way, and it was really to help
me in those first few years of grief. But from
it became, I like found who I really am and
I just was so happy and it sort of kind
(05:44):
of reached out to people around us and friends, and
so I became the holiday junkie and that's sort of
you know how it all happened, So it was it
was a blessing in disguise.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I love the name inheriting magic. That is just it's
so like whimsical and yeah, thank you. Can you tell,
I mean, if you feel comfortable talking about it, because
I feel like grief is such a complicated, beautiful, devastating
thing that we go through, and like every everyone will
eventually go through a grief grieving over someone it's been
(06:16):
how so you said in twenty twelve is when it happened.
So what is that feeling now, like after this time
has passed and you have your own family, Like, what,
how did would you describe that?
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Well?
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I cried at least six times in the last four
days because it's Christmas and I wish she was here.
And I dropped an ornament of hers a couple of
days ago when I was decorated and was like somebody had,
you know, shattered my heart on the floor. My kids
were like, a Mommy, are you good? Like I finally
back in a minute. So you know, it ebbs and
it flows and it comes and you know in waves,
(06:48):
I like to say, but uh, doing the book and
doing the movie and sort of all the stuff that
I've done this year that kind of is in her
honor has oddly been really helpful and sort of like
letting go of new grief that has, you know, kind
of come up later. And I've felt really close to
(07:09):
her in this process. It's been really weird to talk
about her every day while doing press and stuff for
all of this, and at the end end of the day.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I'm like, oh, yeah, that's my mom, Like she's just
not here. This is so wet.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
So it's been like very emotional, but it's also been
really beautiful to kind of honor her. And when I
started writing the book, I originally started writing it just
because I realized after she passed I never said anything
about her, and I think it's just because I didn't
have the words necessarily yet, and so these, you know,
that's kind of this is it. This is These are
(07:43):
my thoughts and feelings on it.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
It's so special. It is really such a.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Special way to honor your mom and her memory and
the person that she was, but also the person that
she created in you. And like the memories and traditions.
Did you find that, like while you were doing the
book that you lean towards doing her traditions like with
your kids or have you Has it been a process
of finding your own traditions and creating them for your
(08:08):
kids and your family.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Yeah, we do some, We do little.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I mean, it's funny my mom and I were like
very much alike and then not alike in so many
other ways, so I think it's Yeah, I do little.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Things to honor her.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
The book and and sort of the things that I
talk about it in it, those were all to sort of,
you know, the little things that I do about her
are to really keep her alive for my kids, because
they never got to meet her, and so I want
her to I want them to feel like she's still
an active part of their life.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
And they do, which is beautiful.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
They'll bring her up to me all the time or
be like, oh, we saw it helping birds today. We
know Mimi was with us on the you know, playground
or whatever, and so that means a lot to me.
But yeah, I've also left space to sort of find
my own with my husband or you know things his
family does that kind of thing.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
So it's sort of a mixture I lend. Yeah, which
is important.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Yeah, speaking of your husband, you he stars in your
so you have.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
First of all, you have this.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Book, you have a movie, you have music. I mean,
you have an full other show. Like, you have so
much going on. So I would like to talk about
the timetable of like when you get all this stuff done,
because it just seems like a lot is on your
plate right now.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
But the movie, so you're starring in it, you're directing it.
How did this all come about? And when did it
come about? And then why did you choose your husband
to start it with you?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So the movie, well, the movie in the book, first
of all, weren't supposed to happen together.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
The book sort of.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Happened, and then I went and pitched the movie. They
bought the movie, and I didn't know when the movie
was going to be made. So I do feel like
the fact that the book comes out on the tenth
and the movie airs the fourteenth is my mother, Like
she was very much a timing person, and I do
feel like somehow she has also a great business person,
and I feel like she's sort of come together and gone, no, no, no,
(10:03):
if we're gonna honor me, let's honor me all in
the same week, and like, let's get this done.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
People.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
So I really feel like everyone around me has been like,
how did this happen? I'm like, it wasn't me, Like
it's you know, someone else, So I love that's that
sort of happened. I pitched the movie not knowing if
they would want to do a grief Christmas movie because
there aren't a lot of those. But I do know
that there are a lot of people at Christmas that
don't always feel joy. Sometimes they feel you know, broken hearted.
(10:31):
It can be grief in all the different ways. Like
my husband's character in the movie has grief because he
was left at the altar around Christmas.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
So there's lots of different parts of grief.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
But I kind of wanted to do a movie that
felt like we were representing all the feelings of the holidays,
not just you know, the super happy ones. And they
loved it and so they were like, great, let's do it.
So we we rush really because we were like, let's
just do it now.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
I was filming nine one one. I had fifteen days
to shoot the movie.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
I was in prep for the movie while I was
finishing last season of nine one one.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
I originally wasn't supposed.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
To direct it, but we got into it and it
was really my story, and I knew so much about
it and had sort of co written it, like not
pen to paper written that that was written by somebody else,
but just the idea I put together myself. And they
were like, you know, so who do you want to
direct it? And I was I just threw it out like.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Hoping that it would stick.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And I was like, well, I could do it, and
they were like, great, that sounds awesome.
Speaker 5 (11:29):
We were hoping you'd say that, and I was like,
oh crash. I had now to direct this movie really quickly.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
And Brian and I, my husband, had met on a
lifetime show called The Client.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
List, which first of all was soffy. It was such
a good job, Honey, seasons was it?
Speaker 5 (11:47):
It was only one tragic I couldn't be make it anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
It was tragic that I was only one season. If
there was any like that show, I watched it.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
I don't remember what year that was.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
I'm so glad it was. Yeah, it was really fun.
It was a lot that show was. I was.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I could never eat anything for months while it was
on that. She was just like meat and Laingerie just
walking around the crew like.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
The most desensitized crew ever.
Speaker 6 (12:13):
There.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I was like, you know, I'm eating a sandwich and
broad panties with you right now, and they're like, nope,
didn't even notice.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Maybe it was wild, But so my husband and I
had met there. So someone at Lifetimes.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Said why are we not why are we not using
Brian in this movie? And I was like, well, I
don't know. I was like, he doesn't really watch Christmas
movies that much. I was like, he likes Christmas, loves Christmas, but.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Like he's not like he doesn't watch forty you know,
Christmas movies a year like I do, and cry and
eat the chocolate.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
And do all the things. And they're like, well, we
think he'd be really great for this. So I went
in the kitchen and I was like, do you want
to be.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
In the movie?
Speaker 5 (12:47):
And he was like, I would love to be in
the movie.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
And I said, really, this is great, and I just
don't know why it like never before that.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Moment was like the thing that we were going to do.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
But again, it's like the directing and that's sort of
came together at the very last minute.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
And then I mean, of course I wanted him to
be in it, but again I just he kind of plays.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
More serious characters normally, So I didn't know if you'd
like want to be in the Holiday junkie movie, you know,
with me, But he did and it was great, and
because it honors my mom, it was obviously it's so
nice to.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Have him and my kids are in it. She had
the whole family affair.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Wow, was this the first time you directed your husband?
Speaker 5 (13:44):
I directed him on the client list?
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Oh you did?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, yeah, but it was nice. You know, it's nice
when you can like be bossy and they can't get
maddie because it's your job.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
But is that like your dynamic when you're at home too,
or is it like pretty equal partnership at home?
Speaker 5 (14:00):
It depends on the day.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Sometimes sometimes I'm bossier than maybe I should be. But
I will say the thing that impressed me about him
the most when we were dating is I was like this,
you know, like, if we're gonna kids, weren't get married,
Like it has to be equal. I don't want to
be like the one person doing all the things or
you feel like we have to do and he is.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
He is like the most.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Fifty to fifty guy ever, Like he is in parenting,
in life and work and like all things and it's
really it's really nice.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
But I always feel that way too, Like I feel
like so many people are like, oh, I want to
have kids, I want to have a family, and it's like,
if you don't have a partner who's like on board
to do that, split that with you.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
It's tough.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Yeah, but it's just like a lot of people, like
I know people who like don't because like they don't
want their husband to wake up and the baby wakes up,
so they like sleep in a separate room and they're
doing all that. It's like, yeah, so it's not it's
not everybody does this equal that's right.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Thing.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
It's nice. It's nice to hear these happy stories. Did
y'all start dating?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Like, did y'all get romantically involved while you were filming
the Client List?
Speaker 5 (15:09):
We did?
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I mean, great way to meet a guy in your
broad panty.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
It's like exposure therapy. You're just like, there it is.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
You want some of this?
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Yeah, okay, Well I was leading into another question with that.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
I wasn't just trying to put you on the spot.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I was just wondering if it was like y'all developed
a relationship and then dated after if it was like
while y'all were filming it happened. Because I'm curious because
you've been in so You've played so many roles and
been in shows and movies with so many different actors, Like,
what was it about him where it felt like it
developed a romantic Like was it just you met the
right person at the right time.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Well, so here here's the thing that I don't think
I've ever actually told the story publicly.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
So this little Brian's gonna love us. We were actually set.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Up on a date a year and a half prior
to him getting cast on the show.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
I was there because.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
It was a premiere party for something that I had done,
and he did not show up.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
That night, and I always thought, oh that guy stood
me up.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Well now having known my husband and we just celebrated
eleven years of marriage, he literally doesn't get in traffic,
like if he doesn't have to. And so the reason
he didn't show up that night is because the event
was like really far away from where he lived and
he was not.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
About to get in traffic.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
He also did not know that it was me he
was meeting, but I knew that it was him, and
so when we were on the set, one day during
the client list, I was like, there's like I, yes,
he's an actor, but I was like, something about him
is so familiar.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
And so I went through my phone and I had.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
A picture of him like a creeper that the person
who was going to set us up had sent me.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
And I walked right over to him.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
I did, right, So I walked right over to him
and I was like, excuse me, sir.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
I was like, you owe me a date because a
year and a half. And he was like, what are
you talking about? Lion tunes? He was like, what is
going on?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
So I explained the whole story to so it like
gave me this like opening flirt moment, which was awesome
because I'm a terrible flirter, and so I know, like
the universe was like conspiring in my favor.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
That day, and I was like, boom, I've got the thing.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
But it never dawned on me that like he might
think I was psycho with a picture of him on
my phone, and so it just kind of like started
the conversation. But then he was like very hesitant to
date an actress or to doing that stuff.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
So I really courted.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Him in the beginning and pulled out all my best moves,
and I.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Like that he was skeptical. I like that he was
a skeptical of that though. I like that, and I
say it, yeah, the.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
Actresses are weird. I told you, well, you don't have
a good rap.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
People like yeah, yeah, Also.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
The whole thing should never have happened or worked.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
But did.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
But do you here we are?
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Do you feel like it makes it easier going into
your job when you have roles where you have? I mean,
I feel like you've you've been in the industry for
so long that you going and like having romantic scenes
with a partner is probably You're probably just like another
day of work at this point.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
But having a.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Partner who like understands it, do you feel like that's
been helpful or do you are you just kind of
like I don't even know that we.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Even talk about it or that he even thinks about it.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Really, I'm more the one that would think about it,
like if like if he is a kissing scene, I'm like,
you know, pacing at home, like are we good?
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Oh my gosh, I feel are we married happening?
Speaker 5 (18:40):
You know what I mean? I'm like, I'm like, oh,
I didn't do anything today. Everything fine? Bye, Like vodka
in the cop.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
You're like, so reminding him what was your scene that
you felt today?
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Oh, that's so weird. I've got.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
So validated.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
I know, makeup in a gown. I'm like, oh, I go,
you know the worst.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Well, I feel better.
Speaker 5 (19:11):
But he's like, whatever, go have fun. It's fine. So wow,
he's so normal and so good. Poor guy is stuck
with me.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
No, that's very nice because Becca was.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
I feel like less less this time around. But Becca's
girlfriend isn't in the industry too, and she's like, no.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
I'm a big fan. I'm a big fan.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
She'll freak out because today she was like, you.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Guys together could make me so happy. Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
I told her, I told her you were on the
podcast and she was like what, And I was like, yeah,
she'll be stunned to.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Hear tell her. Now, I'm that's very cool for me.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Think, Yeah, I have a really like I I do
have a hard time like with you know, just her
in the industry, and I've had to address and I've
always felt like, man, maybe if I was an actress
or I just got it. If I was in the industry,
I feel a little more calmbat. I feel validated that you.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
I'm not very sird.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
It's another lip on a lip lip and you're.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Like, why are you doing that? I know it's weird.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
I would have the hardest time with it too. I
like beca gave yourself grace because if I was watching that,
I would be doing the same thing.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, I feel like it's weird when there's two people
who are like, it's no big deal.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Yeah, Like it actually is a big Like it's a
mouth on a mouth, and then I'm kissing that mouth.
Later I've kissed that person too, and it's all weird.
Why are we doing this?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
You know?
Speaker 4 (20:32):
I'm speaking. So your family's in the movie. Their whole family,
your kids and everything are in the movie.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Yes, are they wanting I'm just curious, are they interested
in pursuing this career?
Speaker 4 (20:42):
And how do you feel about that?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
My middle one not at all. He's all sports.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
He had fun being in the movie, but he's like
a sports guy, doesn't.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Get it at all.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
But I think he would love to do like stunts
in movies or something.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
He's constantly throwing himself around. He's crazy and I love him.
My really wants to do it.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
But she's like very unrealistic and that she's like, I
don't want to audition for anything.
Speaker 5 (21:07):
You just want to like start a Disney show.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
And I'm like, shame the same girl, same like I
get at it. So I think I don't know that
she understands like what really goes into it, which I
sort of love about her.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
She's a whole vibe and I.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Just love her, so you know, we'll see what she
kind of just but she did get her sad card
on this movie at the same age that I got
my sag.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Card, so it was like very sweet and really cute.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
And then our baby, our three year old, is like
he's gonna be He's gonna take over the whole universe.
I think he's I think he's the one honestly that
will like he's the most like I was when I
was a kid. Oh there is no oh yeah, he
just wants he'll perform in front of like fifty people
Tomorrow's three all yeah, and he can like dance and
(21:57):
he can he can like hold a tune and he
is like dynamic, and.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Yeah, I think he's I'm gonna watch out for that one.
We'll see what happens.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
But My daughter is also like, she's a really good actress,
So if she wants to do it, great, but I
just can't tell yet if she knows that, like there's
work involved.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
And rejection and all, but now there's other stuff.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Yeah, But I feel like it's so crazy to me
to think that you've been doing this for as long
as you've been doing it, because like, I mean, it's
pretty rare to get into the industry at that age,
and she just like, I mean, it's just been like
project after project after project. What do you feel like
has been the biggest change in the industry. I'd say
over the last like ten years for you.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
I mean social media for sure, in the good and
the bad, because I do think that there's both. I
mean I think a lot about like young actors now
and if I would have like even made it in
this time, if I was a young actor with like
social media and pop parazzi and all the things.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
It's it's weird.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
I mean, it's hard as an aging person who's been
in it forever who normally people like that's hard, let
alone a new person coming up who's like, wait, who
thinks what of me?
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Today?
Speaker 1 (23:13):
So it's it's a lot, and I think that it's different.
On the other side, I think that it's really cool
because like people who watch your projects feel like they
know you a little bit. You get to share more
about yourself. There isn't a lot of, like, you know,
people writing about who they think you are, like people
actually get to know who you are. But I think
(23:34):
that that's kind of cool. But I would say that's
a that's a really big difference for sure. And I
do love that everything like from the nineties is coming
back because the nineties was awesome, So I'm psyched about that.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
I forget what it was, but there was something that
you did on social media a while ago. It was like,
oh no, was it like refrigerator talk or something?
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Oh yeah, fridgerl like confessions because it's the best light
really light.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Yeah, as I first like saw your personality and I
was like, she's so funny.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
I love going to my refrigerator and doing stories. It's
great because you don't have to like light the thing.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
No selfie light needed, Like you're already.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Eggs, get that light. Why don't you get.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
That, Like you're already paying for the electricity? Why not?
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Your preid apostle is very cold in there.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I do wonder when you were so growing up in
the industry, all you heard about was like if you magazines,
writing articles or whatever. Were there any misconceptions about you
that you like, now you're like, I wish I could
clear that up, or something that people thought about you
or said about you, or like how you were a
set or anything like that.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Oh my gosh, you know what. Honestly, I think the
biggest thing for me looking back.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Now that was so crazy is that I was like
this sexy person and.
Speaker 5 (25:12):
I was always like to my mom, like have they
met me?
Speaker 7 (25:15):
Like there was nothing like this is a nerd? Like
I was a nerd, you know. And I was like
unsure of myself and very insecure and firing it all
out and like you know all this and like, I mean,
I remember being on the cover of Maxim magazine at seventeen,
and I was so excited. I thought it was really cool.
(25:38):
I was their most clothed cover ever and I was
in like leather pants and a little like two top
thing or whatever.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
And I remember going out and people being like like
this word sexy was always around, And then all my
interviews became about my boobs and like all this stuff,
and I remember thinking like, what is this? How did
this happen? And what is going on here? Because I'm
like feeding my cat and like eating pizza Hut and
you know, getting dumped by boys and like, I don't know,
(26:07):
like this.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Is these two things do not go together. So that
was the weirdest thing for me.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
It's like I just became this sexy person to people
before I even really knew what sexy was.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
So it was kind of odd.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
I was thinking about that because I there's all the
always those interviews that pop up from like the early
two thousands and nineties where these interviewers were asking like
the craziest questions about the people's rawties and like the relationships.
Did you have any of those experience where you went
on a talk show and you were like, I can't
believe they're asking me this.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
No, but like the amount of grown men who like
would just ask me in interviews on Nashtional television or whatever,
like about my boobs or like back at that now,
you would think, oh my god, that's so inappropriate, and
I would be seventeen, yeah, sixteen eighteen, like.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Yeah, there they all are.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
Woo boo woop, know and like joking about it and
we would laugh and the whole audience would like laugh
about it, and no one would ever think that's a
teenage girl, like why is she having to talk about
this right now?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
And I didn't think that at the time. It wasn't
until I got in my thirties that I was like,
hashtag in appropriate, All right, we should go back and
maybe look at that and you know, think of some things.
And really, when I watched the Britney Spears documentary, that
was like a huge light bulb for me because which
is very recent, right, it's not that long ago. And
(27:32):
I remember watching it and my husband announced hers and
he was like, you look freaked out, and I was like, honestly,
I was that, Like I had.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Those same moments and like, I guess.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
I blacked it out, like I just never thought about
it until now. And again, no fault of their own,
like that was the time and people were allowed to
ask those things, and so I don't fault them at
all for it, but it was definitely different for sure.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
Yeah, it's jarring.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
It is.
Speaker 4 (27:59):
It is so darring.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
And you see like the just the little social clips
on TikTok and stuff.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
It's like crazy.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Yeah, it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Did you do you have any actor or actress that
you're like, if I could create my dream role around
this person that you think about, or do you have
anyone off the top of your head?
Speaker 5 (28:18):
Oh my gosh. I mean I just watched The Holiday yesterday.
I said, probably say Kate Winslet.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Or I just watched it to Kate Winslet is.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
I'm obsessed with her, everything about her.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Let's not forget about Jack Black and Jude Law.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
I mean the four of them together.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
I'm co I know the ladies were the star. Yeah, they.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
Really were. Yes, Yeah, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
I showed my daughter that movie for the first time
and now she's obsessed. We've watched it like twice in
the last three days. It's so good. But I feel
like Kate Winslet is just somebody that I just I
just love. I also feel like she has done such
a beautiful job of going from a younger actress too,
you know, an older not older, but like my age.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Old road I'm like older, Like she's younger than you.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
But I feel like she's done a beautiful job of that, right,
and like, is aging in such a powerful, like beautiful
place with the things that she says in social media
and the way that she kind of handles herself and
she's just like she's just always.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
Good and classy, and I don't know, I just I'm
obsessed with her.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
I agree, I've been obsessed with her since Titanic, like
I have never not just been obsessed with her.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
And you mentioned that the nineties are coming back and
everybody it's all of those things are have you ever
been approached to bring back anything from the past that
you were part of, Like, I know what you did
last summer, they're doing that reboot, Like have you been
approached to do any of these things? And would you say, yes.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I have been approached to do the new I know
what you did last summer, and I will be I'm
very close to having an answer on that. It is, Uh,
it's just been tricky with nine will one because the scheduling.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
Of when they're shooting the movie and the scheduling of
when I have to.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Do it booked and busy.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
Yeah, it's sort of it's sort of a tricky one.
So we're waiting to see about that. I'm trying to say.
People talk all the time about doing like a Party
of five reunion, which would be really cool.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
And people have asked to have Ghost Whisper comeback, which
I would do in a heartbeat.
Speaker 5 (30:29):
I love doing that show. And people have talked about
the client list because no one wants to see me
in lacheride. I know I got three kids, Ladies, have
that done.
Speaker 4 (30:38):
We're done there.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
That show was gone too soon, Like, honestly, I agree,
I will stand on that hill forever, forever and ever.
But I did not hear you mentioned Can Hardly Wait.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
So here's the thing I really want to do, the
Can Hardly Wait high school reunion movie.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (30:56):
I think it would be so fun.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
And it's basically like the same party but a hotel
with all.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Of those people. I think it would be so fun.
I haven't heard back on it, oh Man, apparently the
only one of the things that you're not.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I would love it, so, oh my god, who's your
Who's your favorite cast?
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Like, because you you've done things where you had like
long term either movies with sequels or TV.
Speaker 3 (31:21):

of course their first Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yeah, aside from your favorite cast, you've been on a
set with who is your favorite cast you've been on
a set with.
Speaker 5 (31:32):

literally the kindest, funniest, just like sweetest people.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
They feel like family to me, like they really they
really do. And yeah, I just love them to pieces.
Speaker 2 (31:50):

But nine one one is also up there on just
worst case scenarios.

the podcast, I I have loved you forever, like and
I don't even know how. I don't even know if
I told you this, but count hardly. Wait was one
of my It's like one of my all time favorite movies.
I didn't know that ever ever, Like I loved it,
and so I will never forget. There was like a
(01:50):
day that you were listening to KISFM the Morning Show
and you posted something on Instagram and I was like,
oh my gosh. I was like, Jennifer love Hewitt knows
my name. And then after that, yeah, somehow we became
like Instagram besties.
Speaker 5 (02:03):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
And I remember when my now fiance and I broke up,
you sent me like a Valentine's Day like balloon bouquet
and like she was just like so sweet, and so
I really truly felt like we were like this internet besties.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Well, I felt really close to you because they did
listen to the Morning Show, and so I was always
like following along with what was happening with all of
you guys, right, and so I knew about the relationship
and like I think it was listening like the first
time they said his name and like, you know whatever.
So so then when I saw that you had your
heart broke, and I was like, oh no, this cannot happen.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
Like she gets me through my mornings, I have to
get her through this. So that's why I sent you
the stuff. And then it was it.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Like meant so much to me that you reached back
out and yeah, I think the world of view and
you know that. And I'm really excited that you're you're
getting married soon and all of that.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
She posted the like the Valentine's Day thing and she
said Jennifer Love Hewett and I'm like the Jennifer.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Love humans say Valentype's Day.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Okay, Like what.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
But you really you kind of are like I feel
like when I think about the holidays, like every holiday,
I think of you, like I feel like you're like
the fairy godmothers a lot.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Thank you so much. That is how it should be.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Do you celebrate every Are you like one of those
people who every holiday there's a celebration around it.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
In my in my book, I actually have like the
holiday Junkie calendar and it shows that for me, there's
like thirty five different holidays, whereas normal people just celebrate
like five a year.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
I'm like, it's Thursday, and today it's National Donut Day.
We should have a party. Today's actually National Christmas Cookie Day.
I don't know if you guys know that.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Yeah, so celebrate, do something, Go to Susie's Cakes and
get a cookie or something on me.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
It'll be really fun. But but yeah, no, I love
celebrating all things.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
I mean, we're only here once, and we're here for
you know, nobody knows how long, so we might as
well be having the best time while doing it.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Well, I mean you just let us write into talking
about your book what was the inspiration because it's basically
like you talking about celebrating holidays and moments of life,
and what was the inspiration behind it.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
So I lost my mom almost thirteen, Well, I'll be
thirteen years ago in June, and it was she was sick,
but it was not expected that she would go that quickly.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
We lived across the street from each other.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
We had breakfast together every morning, dinner together every night
when I wasn't working or doing things, and she was.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
My absolute world.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
But she was also the most magical person I knew
on the planet. And when she passed, I remember, oddly,
in like the first forty eight hours, my very first
thought was, well, that's it. I will never know anything
magical ever again, like it's gone. And so quickly after
she passed and sort of like putting my life back
(05:00):
together and all of that, I found out that I
was pregnant with our daughter, and my husband and I
got married, and I realized that I couldn't sit our
first Christmas in the grief that I was feeling when
I had to do something for my new family. And
so it struck me that I was left that magic
from her and that I could be magical. I just
had to find it, you know, within myself. And so
(05:22):
that's why the book is called Inheriting Magic. And so
I kind of started really embracing the holidays in like
an all new way, and it was really to help
me in those first few years of grief. But from
it became, I like found who I really am and
I just was so happy and it sort of kind
(05:44):
of reached out to people around us and friends, and
so I became the holiday junkie and that's sort of
you know how it all happened, So it was it
was a blessing in disguise.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I love the name inheriting magic. That is just it's
so like whimsical and yeah, thank you. Can you tell,
I mean, if you feel comfortable talking about it, because
I feel like grief is such a complicated, beautiful, devastating
thing that we go through, and like every everyone will
eventually go through a grief grieving over someone it's been
(06:16):
how so you said in twenty twelve is when it happened.
So what is that feeling now, like after this time
has passed and you have your own family, Like, what,
how did would you describe that?
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Well?
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I cried at least six times in the last four
days because it's Christmas and I wish she was here.
And I dropped an ornament of hers a couple of
days ago when I was decorated and was like somebody had,
you know, shattered my heart on the floor. My kids
were like, a Mommy, are you good? Like I finally
back in a minute. So you know, it ebbs and
it flows and it comes and you know in waves,
(06:48):
I like to say, but uh, doing the book and
doing the movie and sort of all the stuff that
I've done this year that kind of is in her
honor has oddly been really helpful and sort of like
letting go of new grief that has, you know, kind
of come up later. And I've felt really close to
(07:09):
her in this process. It's been really weird to talk
about her every day while doing press and stuff for
all of this, and at the end end of the day.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I'm like, oh, yeah, that's my mom, Like she's just
not here. This is so wet.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
So it's been like very emotional, but it's also been
really beautiful to kind of honor her. And when I
started writing the book, I originally started writing it just
because I realized after she passed I never said anything
about her, and I think it's just because I didn't
have the words necessarily yet, and so these, you know,
that's kind of this is it. This is These are
(07:43):
my thoughts and feelings on it.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
It's so special. It is really such a.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Special way to honor your mom and her memory and
the person that she was, but also the person that
she created in you. And like the memories and traditions.
Did you find that, like while you were doing the
book that you lean towards doing her traditions like with
your kids or have you Has it been a process
of finding your own traditions and creating them for your
(08:08):
kids and your family.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
Yeah, we do some, We do little.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I mean, it's funny my mom and I were like
very much alike and then not alike in so many
other ways, so I think it's Yeah, I do little.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Things to honor her.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
The book and and sort of the things that I
talk about it in it, those were all to sort of,
you know, the little things that I do about her
are to really keep her alive for my kids, because
they never got to meet her, and so I want
her to I want them to feel like she's still
an active part of their life.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
And they do, which is beautiful.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
They'll bring her up to me all the time or
be like, oh, we saw it helping birds today. We
know Mimi was with us on the you know, playground
or whatever, and so that means a lot to me.
But yeah, I've also left space to sort of find
my own with my husband or you know things his
family does that kind of thing.
Speaker 5 (08:56):
So it's sort of a mixture I lend. Yeah, which
is important.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Yeah, speaking of your husband, you he stars in your
so you have.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
First of all, you have this.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Book, you have a movie, you have music. I mean,
you have an full other show. Like, you have so
much going on. So I would like to talk about
the timetable of like when you get all this stuff done,
because it just seems like a lot is on your
plate right now.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
But the movie, so you're starring in it, you're directing it.
How did this all come about? And when did it
come about? And then why did you choose your husband
to start it with you?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So the movie, well, the movie in the book, first
of all, weren't supposed to happen together.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
The book sort of.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Happened, and then I went and pitched the movie. They
bought the movie, and I didn't know when the movie
was going to be made. So I do feel like
the fact that the book comes out on the tenth
and the movie airs the fourteenth is my mother, Like
she was very much a timing person, and I do
feel like somehow she has also a great business person,
and I feel like she's sort of come together and gone, no, no, no,
(10:03):
if we're gonna honor me, let's honor me all in
the same week, and like, let's get this done.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
People.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
So I really feel like everyone around me has been like,
how did this happen? I'm like, it wasn't me, Like
it's you know, someone else, So I love that's that
sort of happened. I pitched the movie not knowing if
they would want to do a grief Christmas movie because
there aren't a lot of those. But I do know
that there are a lot of people at Christmas that
don't always feel joy. Sometimes they feel you know, broken hearted.
(10:31):
It can be grief in all the different ways. Like
my husband's character in the movie has grief because he
was left at the altar around Christmas.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
So there's lots of different parts of grief.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
But I kind of wanted to do a movie that
felt like we were representing all the feelings of the holidays,
not just you know, the super happy ones. And they
loved it and so they were like, great, let's do it.
So we we rush really because we were like, let's
just do it now.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
I was filming nine one one. I had fifteen days
to shoot the movie.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
I was in prep for the movie while I was
finishing last season of nine one one.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
I originally wasn't supposed.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
To direct it, but we got into it and it
was really my story, and I knew so much about
it and had sort of co written it, like not
pen to paper written that that was written by somebody else,
but just the idea I put together myself. And they
were like, you know, so who do you want to
direct it? And I was I just threw it out like.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Hoping that it would stick.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And I was like, well, I could do it, and
they were like, great, that sounds awesome.
Speaker 5 (11:29):
We were hoping you'd say that, and I was like,
oh crash. I had now to direct this movie really quickly.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
And Brian and I, my husband, had met on a
lifetime show called The Client.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
List, which first of all was soffy. It was such
a good job, Honey, seasons was it?
Speaker 5 (11:47):
It was only one tragic I couldn't be make it anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
It was tragic that I was only one season. If
there was any like that show, I watched it.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
I don't remember what year that was.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
I'm so glad it was. Yeah, it was really fun.
It was a lot that show was. I was.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I could never eat anything for months while it was
on that. She was just like meat and Laingerie just
walking around the crew like.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
The most desensitized crew ever.
Speaker 6 (12:13):
There.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I was like, you know, I'm eating a sandwich and
broad panties with you right now, and they're like, nope,
didn't even notice.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Maybe it was wild, But so my husband and I
had met there. So someone at Lifetimes.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Said why are we not why are we not using
Brian in this movie? And I was like, well, I
don't know. I was like, he doesn't really watch Christmas
movies that much. I was like, he likes Christmas, loves Christmas, but.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Like he's not like he doesn't watch forty you know,
Christmas movies a year like I do, and cry and
eat the chocolate.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
And do all the things. And they're like, well, we
think he'd be really great for this. So I went
in the kitchen and I was like, do you want
to be.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
In the movie?
Speaker 5 (12:47):
And he was like, I would love to be in
the movie.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
And I said, really, this is great, and I just
don't know why it like never before that.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Moment was like the thing that we were going to do.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
But again, it's like the directing and that's sort of
came together at the very last minute.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
And then I mean, of course I wanted him to
be in it, but again I just he kind of plays.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
More serious characters normally, So I didn't know if you'd
like want to be in the Holiday junkie movie, you know,
with me, But he did and it was great, and
because it honors my mom, it was obviously it's so
nice to.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Have him and my kids are in it. She had
the whole family affair.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Wow, was this the first time you directed your husband?
Speaker 5 (13:44):
I directed him on the client list?
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Oh you did?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, yeah, but it was nice. You know, it's nice
when you can like be bossy and they can't get
maddie because it's your job.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
But is that like your dynamic when you're at home too,
or is it like pretty equal partnership at home?
Speaker 5 (14:00):
It depends on the day.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Sometimes sometimes I'm bossier than maybe I should be. But
I will say the thing that impressed me about him
the most when we were dating is I was like this,
you know, like, if we're gonna kids, weren't get married,
Like it has to be equal. I don't want to
be like the one person doing all the things or
you feel like we have to do and he is.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
He is like the most.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Fifty to fifty guy ever, Like he is in parenting,
in life and work and like all things and it's
really it's really nice.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
But I always feel that way too, Like I feel
like so many people are like, oh, I want to
have kids, I want to have a family, and it's like,
if you don't have a partner who's like on board
to do that, split that with you.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
It's tough.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Yeah, but it's just like a lot of people, like
I know people who like don't because like they don't
want their husband to wake up and the baby wakes up,
so they like sleep in a separate room and they're
doing all that. It's like, yeah, so it's not it's
not everybody does this equal that's right.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Thing.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
It's nice. It's nice to hear these happy stories. Did
y'all start dating?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Like, did y'all get romantically involved while you were filming
the Client List?
Speaker 5 (15:09):
We did?
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I mean, great way to meet a guy in your
broad panty.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
It's like exposure therapy. You're just like, there it is.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
You want some of this?
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Yeah, okay, Well I was leading into another question with that.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
I wasn't just trying to put you on the spot.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
I was just wondering if it was like y'all developed
a relationship and then dated after if it was like
while y'all were filming it happened. Because I'm curious because
you've been in so You've played so many roles and
been in shows and movies with so many different actors, Like,
what was it about him where it felt like it
developed a romantic Like was it just you met the
right person at the right time.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Well, so here here's the thing that I don't think
I've ever actually told the story publicly.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
So this little Brian's gonna love us. We were actually set.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Up on a date a year and a half prior
to him getting cast on the show.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
I was there because.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
It was a premiere party for something that I had done,
and he did not show up.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
That night, and I always thought, oh that guy stood
me up.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Well now having known my husband and we just celebrated
eleven years of marriage, he literally doesn't get in traffic,
like if he doesn't have to. And so the reason
he didn't show up that night is because the event
was like really far away from where he lived and
he was not.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
About to get in traffic.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
He also did not know that it was me he
was meeting, but I knew that it was him, and
so when we were on the set, one day during
the client list, I was like, there's like I, yes,
he's an actor, but I was like, something about him
is so familiar.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
And so I went through my phone and I had.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
A picture of him like a creeper that the person
who was going to set us up had sent me.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
And I walked right over to him.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
I did, right, So I walked right over to him
and I was like, excuse me, sir.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
I was like, you owe me a date because a
year and a half. And he was like, what are
you talking about? Lion tunes? He was like, what is
going on?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
So I explained the whole story to so it like
gave me this like opening flirt moment, which was awesome
because I'm a terrible flirter, and so I know, like
the universe was like conspiring in my favor.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
That day, and I was like, boom, I've got the thing.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
But it never dawned on me that like he might
think I was psycho with a picture of him on
my phone, and so it just kind of like started
the conversation. But then he was like very hesitant to
date an actress or to doing that stuff.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
So I really courted.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Him in the beginning and pulled out all my best moves,
and I.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Like that he was skeptical. I like that he was
a skeptical of that though. I like that, and I
say it, yeah, the.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
Actresses are weird. I told you, well, you don't have
a good rap.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
People like yeah, yeah, Also.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
The whole thing should never have happened or worked.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
But did.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
But do you here we are?
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Do you feel like it makes it easier going into
your job when you have roles where you have? I mean,
I feel like you've you've been in the industry for
so long that you going and like having romantic scenes
with a partner is probably You're probably just like another
day of work at this point.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
But having a.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Partner who like understands it, do you feel like that's
been helpful or do you are you just kind of
like I don't even know that we.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Even talk about it or that he even thinks about it.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Really, I'm more the one that would think about it,
like if like if he is a kissing scene, I'm like,
you know, pacing at home, like are we good?
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Oh my gosh, I feel are we married happening?
Speaker 5 (18:40):
You know what I mean? I'm like, I'm like, oh,
I didn't do anything today. Everything fine? Bye, Like vodka
in the cop.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
You're like, so reminding him what was your scene that
you felt today?
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Oh, that's so weird. I've got.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
So validated.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
I know, makeup in a gown. I'm like, oh, I go,
you know the worst.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Well, I feel better.
Speaker 5 (19:11):
But he's like, whatever, go have fun. It's fine. So wow,
he's so normal and so good. Poor guy is stuck
with me.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
No, that's very nice because Becca was.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
I feel like less less this time around. But Becca's
girlfriend isn't in the industry too, and she's like, no.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
I'm a big fan. I'm a big fan.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
She'll freak out because today she was like, you.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Guys together could make me so happy. Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
I told her, I told her you were on the
podcast and she was like what, And I was like, yeah,
she'll be stunned to.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Hear tell her. Now, I'm that's very cool for me.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Think, Yeah, I have a really like I I do
have a hard time like with you know, just her
in the industry, and I've had to address and I've
always felt like, man, maybe if I was an actress
or I just got it. If I was in the industry,
I feel a little more calmbat. I feel validated that you.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
I'm not very sird.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
It's another lip on a lip lip and you're.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Like, why are you doing that? I know it's weird.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
I would have the hardest time with it too. I
like beca gave yourself grace because if I was watching that,
I would be doing the same thing.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, I feel like it's weird when there's two people
who are like, it's no big deal.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Yeah, Like it actually is a big Like it's a
mouth on a mouth, and then I'm kissing that mouth.
Later I've kissed that person too, and it's all weird.
Why are we doing this?
Speaker 2 (20:30):
You know?
Speaker 4 (20:32):
I'm speaking. So your family's in the movie. Their whole family,
your kids and everything are in the movie.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Yes, are they wanting I'm just curious, are they interested
in pursuing this career?
Speaker 4 (20:42):
And how do you feel about that?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
My middle one not at all. He's all sports.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
He had fun being in the movie, but he's like
a sports guy, doesn't.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Get it at all.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
But I think he would love to do like stunts
in movies or something.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
He's constantly throwing himself around. He's crazy and I love him.
My really wants to do it.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
But she's like very unrealistic and that she's like, I
don't want to audition for anything.
Speaker 5 (21:07):
You just want to like start a Disney show.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
And I'm like, shame the same girl, same like I
get at it. So I think I don't know that
she understands like what really goes into it, which I
sort of love about her.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
She's a whole vibe and I.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Just love her, so you know, we'll see what she
kind of just but she did get her sad card
on this movie at the same age that I got
my sag.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Card, so it was like very sweet and really cute.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
And then our baby, our three year old, is like
he's gonna be He's gonna take over the whole universe.
I think he's I think he's the one honestly that
will like he's the most like I was when I
was a kid. Oh there is no oh yeah, he
just wants he'll perform in front of like fifty people
Tomorrow's three all yeah, and he can like dance and
(21:57):
he can he can like hold a tune and he
is like dynamic, and.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Yeah, I think he's I'm gonna watch out for that one.
We'll see what happens.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
But My daughter is also like, she's a really good actress,
So if she wants to do it, great, but I
just can't tell yet if she knows that, like there's
work involved.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
And rejection and all, but now there's other stuff.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Yeah, But I feel like it's so crazy to me
to think that you've been doing this for as long
as you've been doing it, because like, I mean, it's
pretty rare to get into the industry at that age,
and she just like, I mean, it's just been like
project after project after project. What do you feel like
has been the biggest change in the industry. I'd say
over the last like ten years for you.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
I mean social media for sure, in the good and
the bad, because I do think that there's both. I
mean I think a lot about like young actors now
and if I would have like even made it in
this time, if I was a young actor with like
social media and pop parazzi and all the things.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
It's it's weird.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
I mean, it's hard as an aging person who's been
in it forever who normally people like that's hard, let
alone a new person coming up who's like, wait, who
thinks what of me?
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Today?
Speaker 1 (23:13):
So it's it's a lot, and I think that it's different.
On the other side, I think that it's really cool
because like people who watch your projects feel like they
know you a little bit. You get to share more
about yourself. There isn't a lot of, like, you know,
people writing about who they think you are, like people
actually get to know who you are. But I think
(23:34):
that that's kind of cool. But I would say that's
a that's a really big difference for sure. And I
do love that everything like from the nineties is coming
back because the nineties was awesome, So I'm psyched about that.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
I forget what it was, but there was something that
you did on social media a while ago. It was like,
oh no, was it like refrigerator talk or something?
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Oh yeah, fridgerl like confessions because it's the best light
really light.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Yeah, as I first like saw your personality and I
was like, she's so funny.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
I love going to my refrigerator and doing stories. It's
great because you don't have to like light the thing.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
No selfie light needed, Like you're already.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Eggs, get that light. Why don't you get.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
That, Like you're already paying for the electricity? Why not?
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Your preid apostle is very cold in there.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I do wonder when you were so growing up in
the industry, all you heard about was like if you magazines,
writing articles or whatever. Were there any misconceptions about you
that you like, now you're like, I wish I could
clear that up, or something that people thought about you
or said about you, or like how you were a
set or anything like that.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Oh my gosh, you know what. Honestly, I think the
biggest thing for me looking back.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Now that was so crazy is that I was like
this sexy person and.
Speaker 5 (25:12):
I was always like to my mom, like have they
met me?
Speaker 7 (25:15):
Like there was nothing like this is a nerd? Like
I was a nerd, you know. And I was like
unsure of myself and very insecure and firing it all
out and like you know all this and like, I mean,
I remember being on the cover of Maxim magazine at seventeen,
and I was so excited. I thought it was really cool.
(25:38):
I was their most clothed cover ever and I was
in like leather pants and a little like two top
thing or whatever.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
And I remember going out and people being like like
this word sexy was always around, And then all my
interviews became about my boobs and like all this stuff,
and I remember thinking like, what is this? How did
this happen? And what is going on here? Because I'm
like feeding my cat and like eating pizza Hut and
you know, getting dumped by boys and like, I don't know,
(26:07):
like this.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Is these two things do not go together. So that
was the weirdest thing for me.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
It's like I just became this sexy person to people
before I even really knew what sexy was.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
So it was kind of odd.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
I was thinking about that because I there's all the
always those interviews that pop up from like the early
two thousands and nineties where these interviewers were asking like
the craziest questions about the people's rawties and like the relationships.
Did you have any of those experience where you went
on a talk show and you were like, I can't
believe they're asking me this.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
No, but like the amount of grown men who like
would just ask me in interviews on Nashtional television or whatever,
like about my boobs or like back at that now,
you would think, oh my god, that's so inappropriate, and
I would be seventeen, yeah, sixteen eighteen, like.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Yeah, there they all are.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
Woo boo woop, know and like joking about it and
we would laugh and the whole audience would like laugh
about it, and no one would ever think that's a
teenage girl, like why is she having to talk about
this right now?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
And I didn't think that at the time. It wasn't
until I got in my thirties that I was like,
hashtag in appropriate, All right, we should go back and
maybe look at that and you know, think of some things.
And really, when I watched the Britney Spears documentary, that
was like a huge light bulb for me because which
is very recent, right, it's not that long ago. And
(27:32):
I remember watching it and my husband announced hers and
he was like, you look freaked out, and I was like, honestly,
I was that, Like I had.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Those same moments and like, I guess.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
I blacked it out, like I just never thought about
it until now. And again, no fault of their own,
like that was the time and people were allowed to
ask those things, and so I don't fault them at
all for it, but it was definitely different for sure.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
Yeah, it's jarring.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
It is.
Speaker 4 (27:59):
It is so darring.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
And you see like the just the little social clips
on TikTok and stuff.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
It's like crazy.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Yeah, it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Did you do you have any actor or actress that
you're like, if I could create my dream role around
this person that you think about, or do you have
anyone off the top of your head?
Speaker 5 (28:18):
Oh my gosh. I mean I just watched The Holiday yesterday.
I said, probably say Kate Winslet.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Or I just watched it to Kate Winslet is.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
I'm obsessed with her, everything about her.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Let's not forget about Jack Black and Jude Law.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
I mean the four of them together.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
I'm co I know the ladies were the star. Yeah, they.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
Really were. Yes, Yeah, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
I showed my daughter that movie for the first time
and now she's obsessed. We've watched it like twice in
the last three days. It's so good. But I feel
like Kate Winslet is just somebody that I just I
just love. I also feel like she has done such
a beautiful job of going from a younger actress too,
you know, an older not older, but like my age.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Old road I'm like older, Like she's younger than you.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
But I feel like she's done a beautiful job of that, right,
and like, is aging in such a powerful, like beautiful
place with the things that she says in social media
and the way that she kind of handles herself and
she's just like she's just always.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
Good and classy, and I don't know, I just I'm
obsessed with her.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
I agree, I've been obsessed with her since Titanic, like
I have never not just been obsessed with her.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
And you mentioned that the nineties are coming back and
everybody it's all of those things are have you ever
been approached to bring back anything from the past that
you were part of, Like, I know what you did
last summer, they're doing that reboot, Like have you been
approached to do any of these things? And would you say, yes.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I have been approached to do the new I know
what you did last summer, and I will be I'm
very close to having an answer on that. It is, Uh,
it's just been tricky with nine will one because the scheduling.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
Of when they're shooting the movie and the scheduling of
when I have to.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Do it booked and busy.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
Yeah, it's sort of it's sort of a tricky one.
So we're waiting to see about that. I'm trying to say.
People talk all the time about doing like a Party
of five reunion, which would be really cool.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
And people have asked to have Ghost Whisper comeback, which
I would do in a heartbeat.
Speaker 5 (30:29):
I love doing that show. And people have talked about
the client list because no one wants to see me
in lacheride. I know I got three kids, Ladies, have
that done.
Speaker 4 (30:38):
We're done there.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
That show was gone too soon, Like, honestly, I agree,
I will stand on that hill forever, forever and ever.
But I did not hear you mentioned Can Hardly Wait.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
So here's the thing I really want to do, the
Can Hardly Wait high school reunion movie.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (30:56):
I think it would be so fun.
Speaker 1 (30:57):

with all.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Of those people. I think it would be so fun.
I haven't heard back on it, oh Man, apparently the
only one of the things that you're not.
