Speaker 1 (00:05):
Still the Place with Laura Layton, Courtney Thorne Smith.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
And Daphne's Aniga and iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hey everybody, welcome back to Still the Place. You're back
with the parts of the Amazing Heather lack cler Well,
she's got silly because the storylines got so crazy and
silly that to argue Minutia, it's like, that's your problem, right, like,
and you have your phone and I go where it's
my phone?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
It's in your boot, yeah, as I normally keep it there.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
My thing was Amanda Woodlake like, can you walk from
here to hear? Do you need motivation? I feel like,
does it get me home sooner?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
It's like Josie said she if she had her last
her close up, She's in her sweats to get out.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
She wore her clothes home. She literally ran to her
car just in the back of the door.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
My version of that was never sign out, I go
sign out for me by because it was late.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
I just remember that sign out for me.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Yeah I did that too. Ye.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
So Heather Avo has she ever seen.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Does she do it? Their kids say, we know you
were big in the nineties.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Oh no, she never says that. She's so cute when
she's going to go for her interviews for schools for
a doctorate. She says, oh, I'm just like, go are
you okay? She's well, I've got a little anxiety, so
this is what I do. And so she crochetes and
stuff for toys. That's so sweet. She's so sweet, And
I go, well, remember I said, you know, pick an
actress you like and just act like them, like Lively.
(01:33):
And she's not getting the best. So she goes, I'm
just going to pretend i'm you.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Oh to labor.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
That's nice. My kid doesn't like to watch it because
it's not me, so it's confusing. Like I remember watching
Two and a half Men, So he's like, well, oh,
I want to see an episode. So we're watching. He
starts looking comfortable and I was like, do not like
seeing mommy as a drunken horse. Not watch this? But
it's it's confusing, right right, So she probably would watch
(02:08):
you on Melrose this bitchy horror. I was a drunken horror.
You were a bitchy horse. Very nice? Uh and not
like it? Well, she likes you're her lovely mom.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Normally, she likes that she's different. Apparently calms her down guys.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
She know an, that's my mom, so proud. Who are
you going out with? No, she's she's I don't think
she's interested, No interesting archite. She loves her, that's you. Yeah,
she loves every episode that I should say, like her
(02:46):
be a little too serious.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
But it's consistent with all of our experience, Like none
of our kids are interested in watching it just feels.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Weird, it's dated. But what's interesting about rewatching it is
the fashion is back, like it would have been weird,
but now it's some of it's really back in style.
Like I'm wearing these ridiculous pleated pants. I want to say,
let me tell you from my experience, those pictures aren't
going to age well. But you wore, Amanda, wore really
tailored stuff. I think you had a better sense because
(03:12):
you've been working longer. What was flattering on you? Like
your first episode and I've got on pleated pants and
a big sweater. I think they were trying to make
me look west and virginal and we were in this
power suit.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
That's what I meant in West and virginal.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I don't think like I would never let anyone put
me in that now because it's kind of top heavy.
You don't put bottom heavy and top bavy, Like I
would never let that happen now, But I think at
the time I was like, is it good?
Speaker 6 (03:35):
Okay, me too, like this, this is the story, Okay,
do it whatever, Heather, When the show was really huge,
do you have any memories of like fan interactions, some
crazy stuff or anything.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
People were really nice and they called me head of Lockwood.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I always in the airports of Wood. No, people were
really nice. I remember not really being in the moment.
I think we worked so much and I wasn't really
taking it in and so like if now, if anything
happened like that, I think I really enjoy it more. Yeah,
I think we worked too much. I think when we'd
(04:14):
all go to the upfronts and stuff like that, that
was fun. We'd be together that that was fun. Then
you get to see how many people like loved the show.
That was crazy. It was crazy and fun.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You have a memory of when you first noticed it
was a hit, because to that point we were working
so much out in Santa Clarita.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Yeah, we didn't far away. Yeah, no, I don't.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Until I didn't we do like Planet Hollywood, or hard Rick.
We didn't do stuff like that, like we did a
big appearance things that was fun that to me was out.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Just yeah that was I.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Mean it was before cell phone, so we didn't have
that sort of regular exposure. But when we were together
and we had those appearances like whatever.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
That that felt like huge.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
Did it feel a huge I mean it felt huge
to me because I was like it was all new
to me.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Yea, yeah, did it?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
It felt huge too?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Did I did something like that with Dynasty where I wasn't.
It was Joan Collins and then Evans and John Forstyth
got all the acknowledgments and we were just like on
the outskirts. So I wasn't really a part of it,
but I watched it and that it was like Melose's place,
but I wasn't really in it.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
But was that your first show or first acting ever?
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Riot? Little things, little things like eight is enough and
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Enough kind of remember that.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, yeah, so no, I mean to be a part
of and this was the first thing. Kay, you can't
have perspective when you're in it that We talk about
that a lot, especially now that we're all friends and
it's like we were so overworked. We were so tired
that you can't step back and say this is a
special time. You're like, well, this is what I'm doing now.
Like I look back and I wish i'd known that,
(05:54):
how specially it was to fly on a private jet
to the super Bowl, because I guess this is what
I do now, And it's like, no, it was like
this crazy moment in time I wish. But it all
happens at once. You don't get to sort of parse
it out, like I like something like that once a month,
but we were so once a month, I like to
go everything right, and we were so tired, and we
were together fourteen hours today like you the friends guys
(06:14):
go got together and watch the show. It's like we
were working one Rice was working at all times right
right like we were. There was never a time we
all develops. It was even crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yeah, oh it is crazy that meanwhile everyone's having the
Melrose parties and you know remember those.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
It was huge everyone.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
I went to some I think it was I don't
even know, someplace in like Hemrosa Beach or something like that,
and they had a thing that had Melrose place this
and on each table and I'm like what it was.
It was like during the day, I went with my
friend and I was, really, you guys have these I
had no idea, and.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Then they looked at you, and they look at the
coaster and they look at you and they're like, wait,
is right.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Fresh fry.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
Everyone who's in here we've all said the same thing,
like we wish we had sort of better perspective and
stuff at the time, Like it was just it was
so hard.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
To I wonder if I could have handled it though,
you know.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
Yeah, you can't really process what's happening. There was a
Halloween and we were leaving work, and it was we
were shooting in October and it was Halloween. Somebody from work,
I think their costume was going to be Sydney for Halloween.
Costume from work from art, I think like somebody from
the crew or something like, they were going to Halloween
and they were going to be Sidney. I just remembered
feeling like that was so I didn't understand understand.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
It felt really strange. They went in the wardrobe tailer.
You're saying, right, something they.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
Or just like I don't know, just it was just
not being able to grasp that that.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Was big, big, enough to be a costume.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
You know, it just felt like that's not even enough
to be a costume, Like people wouldn't know what you
are or who.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
You are whatever, but you had no idea.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yeah, like not having that we really.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Were in a bubble bubble really in Santa Clara. Yeah,
And I think that kept us, like, for how big
a hit it was, we stayed really sane. I think
the combination that what I said about you coming in
is like the star of the show and being so
down to earth. You set such a good tone because
that was as at the start of the show, I
walked in as a guest star. But honestly, I think
(08:17):
if you hadn't come in, I'm thinking what a lucky
break that was that it was you all of uspt
for all of us, but that it was you because
your attitude, You're so grounded and so lovely, And I
think maybe that was a time when egos were starting
to sort of tip over, and if we'd become a
hit and hadn't had that example of how to be
(08:37):
I think there were a couple of people who really
would have spun off the rails, but you look like
an idiot spinning off the rail of the showroom. But
I'm thinking there were some people who probably would have
spun off. But you just look ridiculous. Like they say
(08:59):
that about NYPD Blue, that Dennis France was so lovely
and grounded like you, but he was so amazing that
he sort of kept a lid on everybody. And it's
true I didn't. But he's another person people talk about
like they talk about you, which is just this grounded, lovely,
generous person. He really I got to work with him,
that's exact did well.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
The two of you must have been like a total balance.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Nice, just little hearts rainbows. Well, and I worked with
Peter Strauss, it was oh yeah in this movie. It
was a what did they call him at that time?
It was a movie the Week, but it was a
mini series mini series. Yeah, yeah, Priscilla, I don't have
(09:43):
the name just thrown out there. Era she was she
was lived in Dallas and she Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Any storylines that were like crazy out of this, like
this is ridiculous kind of thing, or you just went with.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
It a lot of them. Okay, this is what this
is so funny. I mean to me, when Michael was
looking to hire me for Spin City, this is what
he says. He says, you know what we were talking about?
I go and he said, how about Heather Locklear? And
they go, oh, can she do comedy?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Yeah, and the answer is yes, Michael D.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Fox. Yeah, it's like the blowing up of the building
and we're all surviving. I thought it was outrageous. Yeah,
I love the phone in the boot.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
That's where's in your boot?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Of course, how much might am I coming out with
my phone when something's going on? Yeah, because I go,
I didn't come out of the door because then the
next thing, but also, how would your phone work? Do
we have cell phones?
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Then cordless phone and it wasn't even a cell phone
or was it a self.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Cordless phone was connected to the phone that blew up.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
It's all rair.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
We have to reshoot the scene.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
To rewatch the scene, do it a castaic For some reason,
I think I was going around trying to warn people
because Kimberly had tied me up in the laundry room
or something like all this stuff so whatever can. But
then and then she comes out and she pushes the
button and we're all in various states of y. I
just remember when they had to go around and shoot
close ups like you're on the stairs and we're on
(11:06):
the ground and whatever. And they had crew members like
throwing rubble at us, so it looked like.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
It was like kind of like cardboard rubble. It was,
you know, it wasn't like but it was like followers.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
My god, I think. But I got the shoe, the
phone in the shoe, I think because it was maybe
the next season. So they ended with it blowing up ah,
and I go, I didn't have a phone in my hand,
it's in your boots.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
When we started to right convenient, maybe that's.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
When the phones came out, I got.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Do you guys remember that purses were annoyings.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Were an issue of where we're going to set it. Yeah,
they give you anything. Didn't weigh.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
This one or this one.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
You know, you know you won't be carrying sunglasses because
we don't own some glasses place.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Super Blinding came on as Sydney a few a couple
of weeks ago. She comes on chewing them, smoking a cigarette,
chain smoking a cigarette, hats what else?
Speaker 4 (12:13):
You broke all the rules.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
And we were in sunglasses.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
No one else smoked in the damn show.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
And when we had our photo shoot for the podcast
and we're out at a pool and dap peoples sunglasses
are like no sunglasses, Like even now, people are wearing
sunglasses throughout the whole.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
I mean we're here in La. This is like sunglass city.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You know. I do see a lot of shows with sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
They were through I think more now you know they
were just plus there were Aaron spelling rules.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
Did you ever come up against that word?
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Couldn't say yes nothing. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
And then you notice your skirts getting shorter because you
got some pretty short skirts.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah. I can almost feel my crack while you're sitting
down because it goes exposed. Yeah, I got you're exposed.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
So did they see your old granny underwear?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I don't know. There's a reason hose then, No, I
don't think you wore panty hose, did you? We didn't
wear panty I don't remember. I was trying to remember
for that actolutely not. No, you didn't. I'm just telling
you you did not dynasty.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Pantyhose.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Nylons, But you were nylons.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
You were nominated like for a Golden Globe a couple
of times for.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Time Place, and that's how high the standards were, right,
really got times place.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Really, yeah, she did it, and then you got to
for Spin City.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
Yeah, and also for Spin City. I'm like, You've had
so many wonderful things happen, and.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Like noamis I think we got a People's Choice Award
as something, Yeah, like a server for the people.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
There was a surfboard for that.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Is that a surfboard is in the People's Choice of surfboard.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I don't know. We didn't.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Relate to us for some bizarre reason because there was
a young show.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Remember when they had thirty something, Yeah, so differently written, yes,
but this was a twenty something yeah, so nice.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
What about Darren? Did he ever talk to you, come
to set, talk to you about story things?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I'll tell you. Darren and Grant and I we're in
New York. I'm wonder if someone else is with this.
I think it was just felt like it was just
the three of us, and somehow I heard about the Vault,
which is like a sex place, and so I'm like, we.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
Got it where I was going, and so you went there.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
The three of you got to go, and so we
go and that's I mean, there's it's like bankers and
stuff like that, who get paddled. They go on a
stage like where a model would walk, and the guy
walks and a dominatrix spank him on the ass as
they bend over, deep deep, and there's one guy who's
(15:11):
like no pants on but a jacket, and he's you
know when dogs scrape their butt because there's poopy on him.
The guy's doing that, like scraping. That's stage. I was
just across the room. Yeah, and then Grant and I
are walking around, not sure where Darren is at this time,
maybe he's got but so Grand and I are looking
(15:35):
because there's this people having sex behind this window and
we're like this, and then people are coming up around
Grant and I staring at us and we're looking. We're like,
we're not We're not doing that. Start taking off our
clothes and this is so bid. Yeah, this is New York,
(15:56):
but now it's in a different place. When I moved there,
when you looked at up, you're like, I want to
go back. No, my friends always pretty cellphone camera right,
Like we're lucky because we were I mean, I feel
very lucky that I was famous in a time when
you weren't watched all the time, right, Like Andrew and
I when we were dating, We could go, we could
(16:16):
put on a baseball cap and go out. It wasn't
the sense of being on camera all the time. That's
really crazy. Yeah, but it was a pretty mild time
there to have something like this compared to today. There
was no social media, Like we were really private out there.
We didn't really like you said, we didn't really know.
You'd kind of come into town. People would recognize me, like, oh,
I guess this little thing I'm doing out in Santa Clarita,
(16:38):
something's happening with it.
Speaker 5 (16:39):
Yeah, that trip to the Vault would have definitely made that.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
Would have been all over.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Yeah, that would have gotten some pressed.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
I remember to that not at all. I'm not comparing
this to at all the Vault story.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Because, like.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Told you what the next week, Okay, I just remember during.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Milros I was an acting class, or maybe just after just.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Before anyway, I was doing this scene and so I
went into do you remember that circus circus bookstore in Hollywood.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
West Hollywood, Yes, and in the back and it.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Was like this wasn't like sex books or something, or
a sex shop or some anyway.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
There's an Unsanta Monica boulevard.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Yeah, I was doing research for a scene in a
very sure just acting class is what I'm trying to
get to do.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
But I was recognized at like twelve, right after my class.
I got over twelve.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I go in there and I was so excited to
do some research and I'm like in there and someone
like recognizes me, Oh, aren't you Daphning.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
I'm like, oh, it's one in the morning and.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
I'm here at the sex store thing.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
It was just a it was you guys, don't remember
circus Circus, I remember the.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Marquis, I don't. I never knew what it was.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
I never went in No right, Laura.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Very observant.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
They were interesting anyway, sex toy, sex show people are
over there, so it was it was like a.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Videos or something.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Yeah, that's a sex store, but you're noticed. But the
videos did the most awkward time.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
And I was trying in this class.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
You got the video that I'm doing a sing from
playing Marilyn.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
I have to whatever it was getting recognized.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
It's a very Daphne's my twin sister.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
There's one of our fan questions. I love this question.
Did you feel pressure to rescue the show from cancelation?
Can you imagine if they said that to you show.
It's all on you. Yeah, yeah, I have nothing to
do with I.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Thought you were there before.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
That's what That's what I was there for. Did you
even know that the show was kind of limping along
or you thought they didn't even nobody they didn't tell
you except for audience, I wouldn't have done it. Yeah,
I did not know you totally.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Now we know right now, we know very well.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Go down. It's because you brought her on and we
cands well, I'm the way it's moving so fast in
your first two episodes. I can't imagine how quickly you
turn from But it's probably something about you and Billy,
because I keep telling Billy I don't want you guys
to date, and you keep asking me if I'm telling you,
oh yeah, it's fine, and then I go home and
yell at him for doing it. It's very very confused
(19:18):
there a little, it was a little it was a
little confused manipulation. But you're still Amanda is still so lovely.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
I thought you were very Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
I don't think I ever watched the show that much
or obvious clearly because we didn't have time. Yeah, yeah,
we're studying.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
So you don't remember kind of going these like the
scripts that you started to get to, like we're wow,
and now I'm causing a fight.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Now I'm being.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Really and did you ever like go Jesus, I have
to say this, like some of your one liners are
you know?
Speaker 1 (19:49):
I was so scared to be in front of people,
like when I have to give speeches for about a
D and D or whatever? A D and D? What
about D and D? And there's people there at that
and it's like weird speak. It's not normal, like normal
people talking.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
And you have to be such an authority. Yes, yeah,
that was made me crazy. So not in your like
regular or no.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Who you want to keep all all do it again?
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Yeah, don't get that and do that.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
I want to keep keep keep keep by one take one,
take twenty times.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Yeah, yeah, it seems was it hard to be mean
constantly to everyone to say these sharp things like to
Alice that wasn't hard.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
That was fun?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Yeah, that was fun.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
And then we've talked about like wishing that while we
were on the show we all had sort of better
perspective or whatever. But was is there any that you
might say to your younger self? Does it bring you
back to how old you were and what your mindset
was than at thirty.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
I should have known better. I don't know, Like what's
wrong with me?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Well, you look like a young twenty something beautiful, you know,
we're all just so youthful and whatever, just like it
feels like another version of ourselves right right.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
But to her point, is there anything that you would
say to your younger self, regardless of how old you were,
knowing what you know now and being the age that
you are, and.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Like this stuff of just being so nervous or I'd
go back to my room and study the lines, like
I couldn't make a mistake or something like that, like having.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
That Oh, that's a question I want to ask you.
Was it hard to have not only that kind of pressure,
but just the pressure of being Amanda, of being Heather
of none of that was too much for you or uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
I just wanted to be good, and I just wanted
to be good the next day and the next day,
I just and I was grateful. I was really grateful.
I just wish I had paid attention to what was
going on around and like you know, with like caring
about what you're going through, you're going through, you're you know,
not just being so I hope it's okay, or I
hope I'm good or whatever like that, hope I know
(21:44):
my lines. I just like to be more personable with
everybody and know their lives rather than just to give
memorize your lives, go home and do this and then
rather than just thinking about my lilf. So there was
so much to do, thirty three episodes a year, like,
it was long, very intense, and we noticed, like as
we watch it. So I was on the first episodes
and I was beating myself up, and they're like, be
(22:05):
kinder to yourself. I like, I can't wait till you're
on camera. Then Daphne beats herself up and Laura beats
herself up. Really did you see? Because I look at everyone,
everyone else is doing such a good job, and then
I'm so hard on myself. Even thirty years later, I'm
beating myself up for choices I made in the scene.
Thirty years later, I'm like, wait, find some layers in this, right,
And it's fascinating to see that I've still got that
(22:25):
inner critic for that very young woman. It was a
really big job, right, Yeah, that felt like my first
big job. You know, because I wasn't ever like, did
it feel different?
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Did Melroe's place feel different from your other shows?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Absolutely it did. Yeah, there wasn't as much pressure, you know,
that's their job up there. Oh yeah, because it was
really on you, yeah this one. Yeah, I mean on
all of us. Yeah, but you were on the poster.
It was a lot of pressure on you.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Don't make her anxious now because.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
It's next questions relaxed. Yeah, I guess we all felt
that way, but just I guess there was no time
to really form friendships.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Yes, there was no time.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Well, and that's what's so sweet about there was honestly
like that that we've gotten so close to we get
to bring people in and have these moments and really
spend the time. It's been the sweetest, biggest surprise about
this podcast. Yeah, they're reconnecting. Yeah, it's so sweet and
soorry to see it.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Florida, Florida.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Yeah, that was like so nice talk. Everyone's just so
normal now, Yeah, exactly, Like we're not rushing, like this
is the thing we're doing, Like this is what I'm
doing on Wednesday. This is it And if I had
time before, I have time after your friend's parents do,
what does daddy do now? And like if we don't
have a regular job, well, daddy he kind of does
(23:54):
the same thing as you, like eats, exercises and watches
to be sched Like all my friend's parents do that.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
An interesting life, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Yeah, well, we adore you so much. We were so
excited for you to be coming in, and we know
our listeners on the podcast could not wait for this
episode to have you. We would love to have you
come back. Would you like to come and do a
recap with us? Would you like to recap? We were
(24:27):
like when we go watch an episode, we watch an
episode and then we talked about the episode, like going
through we go And that's what's been so fun for
us to revisit the episodes.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
We pick an episode or something crazy happens, it'll be
fun if it was among us, something crazy and fighting fun. Yeah,
it's super fun.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
You know.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
So it's got to be in between the nap, right,
your very busy scheduled. Doesn't we work around your busy schedule?
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Yes, I would love to, but we realized, you know,
we used to be referred to as the Bod Squad
and we're just the pod squad.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Yeah, it doesn't bother me at all.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
It's a lot less pressure, less pressure. Often we're at
home on zoom with our dogs. It's a lot less pressure. Father,
Thank you so much, Thank you so good to see you.
What are we going to do that? When's the pod
squad going to do a Daytona squad?
Speaker 3 (25:21):
We should do that again for a girls weekend. Yeah, yeah,
let's do that. Let's go to the place in Castaic.
We'll put Courtney in the water. Yeah, that'll just burns.
By the way. Maybe we'll go somewhere
Still the Place with Laura Layton, Courtney Thorne Smith.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
And Daphne's Aniga and iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hey everybody, welcome back to Still the Place. You're back
with the parts of the Amazing Heather lack cler Well,
she's got silly because the storylines got so crazy and
silly that to argue Minutia, it's like, that's your problem, right, like,
and you have your phone and I go where it's
my phone?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
It's in your boot, yeah, as I normally keep it there.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
My thing was Amanda Woodlake like, can you walk from
here to hear? Do you need motivation? I feel like,
does it get me home sooner?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
It's like Josie said she if she had her last
her close up, She's in her sweats to get out.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
She wore her clothes home. She literally ran to her
car just in the back of the door.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
My version of that was never sign out, I go
sign out for me by because it was late.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
I just remember that sign out for me.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Yeah I did that too. Ye.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
So Heather Avo has she ever seen.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Does she do it? Their kids say, we know you
were big in the nineties.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Oh no, she never says that. She's so cute when
she's going to go for her interviews for schools for
a doctorate. She says, oh, I'm just like, go are
you okay? She's well, I've got a little anxiety, so
this is what I do. And so she crochetes and
stuff for toys. That's so sweet. She's so sweet, And
I go, well, remember I said, you know, pick an
actress you like and just act like them, like Lively.
(01:33):
And she's not getting the best. So she goes, I'm
just going to pretend i'm you.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Oh to labor.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
That's nice. My kid doesn't like to watch it because
it's not me, so it's confusing. Like I remember watching
Two and a half Men, So he's like, well, oh,
I want to see an episode. So we're watching. He
starts looking comfortable and I was like, do not like
seeing mommy as a drunken horse. Not watch this? But
it's it's confusing, right right, So she probably would watch
(02:08):
you on Melrose this bitchy horror. I was a drunken horror.
You were a bitchy horse. Very nice? Uh and not
like it? Well, she likes you're her lovely mom.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Normally, she likes that she's different. Apparently calms her down guys.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
She know an, that's my mom, so proud. Who are
you going out with? No, she's she's I don't think
she's interested, No interesting archite. She loves her, that's you. Yeah,
she loves every episode that I should say, like her
(02:46):
be a little too serious.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
But it's consistent with all of our experience, Like none
of our kids are interested in watching it just feels.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Weird, it's dated. But what's interesting about rewatching it is
the fashion is back, like it would have been weird,
but now it's some of it's really back in style.
Like I'm wearing these ridiculous pleated pants. I want to say,
let me tell you from my experience, those pictures aren't
going to age well. But you wore, Amanda, wore really
tailored stuff. I think you had a better sense because
(03:12):
you've been working longer. What was flattering on you? Like
your first episode and I've got on pleated pants and
a big sweater. I think they were trying to make
me look west and virginal and we were in this
power suit.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
That's what I meant in West and virginal.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I don't think like I would never let anyone put
me in that now because it's kind of top heavy.
You don't put bottom heavy and top bavy, Like I
would never let that happen now, But I think at
the time I was like, is it good?
Speaker 6 (03:35):
Okay, me too, like this, this is the story, Okay,
do it whatever, Heather, When the show was really huge,
do you have any memories of like fan interactions, some
crazy stuff or anything.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
People were really nice and they called me head of Lockwood.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I always in the airports of Wood. No, people were
really nice. I remember not really being in the moment.
I think we worked so much and I wasn't really
taking it in and so like if now, if anything
happened like that, I think I really enjoy it more. Yeah,
I think we worked too much. I think when we'd
(04:14):
all go to the upfronts and stuff like that, that
was fun. We'd be together that that was fun. Then
you get to see how many people like loved the show.
That was crazy. It was crazy and fun.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You have a memory of when you first noticed it
was a hit, because to that point we were working
so much out in Santa Clarita.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Yeah, we didn't far away. Yeah, no, I don't.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Until I didn't we do like Planet Hollywood, or hard Rick.
We didn't do stuff like that, like we did a
big appearance things that was fun that to me was out.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Just yeah that was I.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Mean it was before cell phone, so we didn't have
that sort of regular exposure. But when we were together
and we had those appearances like whatever.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
That that felt like huge.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
Did it feel a huge I mean it felt huge
to me because I was like it was all new
to me.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Yea, yeah, did it?
Speaker 3 (05:03):
It felt huge too?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Did I did something like that with Dynasty where I wasn't.
It was Joan Collins and then Evans and John Forstyth
got all the acknowledgments and we were just like on
the outskirts. So I wasn't really a part of it,
but I watched it and that it was like Melose's place,
but I wasn't really in it.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
But was that your first show or first acting ever?
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Riot? Little things, little things like eight is enough and
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Enough kind of remember that.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, yeah, so no, I mean to be a part
of and this was the first thing. Kay, you can't
have perspective when you're in it that We talk about
that a lot, especially now that we're all friends and
it's like we were so overworked. We were so tired
that you can't step back and say this is a
special time. You're like, well, this is what I'm doing now.
Like I look back and I wish i'd known that,
(05:54):
how specially it was to fly on a private jet
to the super Bowl, because I guess this is what
I do now, And it's like, no, it was like
this crazy moment in time I wish. But it all
happens at once. You don't get to sort of parse
it out, like I like something like that once a month,
but we were so once a month, I like to
go everything right, and we were so tired, and we
were together fourteen hours today like you the friends guys
(06:14):
go got together and watch the show. It's like we
were working one Rice was working at all times right
right like we were. There was never a time we
all develops. It was even crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yeah, oh it is crazy that meanwhile everyone's having the
Melrose parties and you know remember those.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
It was huge everyone.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
I went to some I think it was I don't
even know, someplace in like Hemrosa Beach or something like that,
and they had a thing that had Melrose place this
and on each table and I'm like what it was.
It was like during the day, I went with my
friend and I was, really, you guys have these I
had no idea, and.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Then they looked at you, and they look at the
coaster and they look at you and they're like, wait,
is right.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Fresh fry.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
Everyone who's in here we've all said the same thing,
like we wish we had sort of better perspective and
stuff at the time, Like it was just it was
so hard.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
To I wonder if I could have handled it though,
you know.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
Yeah, you can't really process what's happening. There was a
Halloween and we were leaving work, and it was we
were shooting in October and it was Halloween. Somebody from work,
I think their costume was going to be Sydney for Halloween.
Costume from work from art, I think like somebody from
the crew or something like, they were going to Halloween
and they were going to be Sidney. I just remembered
feeling like that was so I didn't understand understand.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
It felt really strange. They went in the wardrobe tailer.
You're saying, right, something they.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
Or just like I don't know, just it was just
not being able to grasp that that.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Was big, big, enough to be a costume.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
You know, it just felt like that's not even enough
to be a costume, Like people wouldn't know what you
are or who.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
You are whatever, but you had no idea.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yeah, like not having that we really.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Were in a bubble bubble really in Santa Clara. Yeah,
And I think that kept us, like, for how big
a hit it was, we stayed really sane. I think
the combination that what I said about you coming in
is like the star of the show and being so
down to earth. You set such a good tone because
that was as at the start of the show, I
walked in as a guest star. But honestly, I think
(08:17):
if you hadn't come in, I'm thinking what a lucky
break that was that it was you all of uspt
for all of us, but that it was you because
your attitude, You're so grounded and so lovely, And I
think maybe that was a time when egos were starting
to sort of tip over, and if we'd become a
hit and hadn't had that example of how to be
(08:37):
I think there were a couple of people who really
would have spun off the rails, but you look like
an idiot spinning off the rail of the showroom. But
I'm thinking there were some people who probably would have
spun off. But you just look ridiculous. Like they say
(08:59):
that about NYPD Blue, that Dennis France was so lovely
and grounded like you, but he was so amazing that
he sort of kept a lid on everybody. And it's
true I didn't. But he's another person people talk about
like they talk about you, which is just this grounded, lovely,
generous person. He really I got to work with him,
that's exact did well.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
The two of you must have been like a total balance.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Nice, just little hearts rainbows. Well, and I worked with
Peter Strauss, it was oh yeah in this movie. It
was a what did they call him at that time?
It was a movie the Week, but it was a
mini series mini series. Yeah, yeah, Priscilla, I don't have
(09:43):
the name just thrown out there. Era she was she
was lived in Dallas and she Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Any storylines that were like crazy out of this, like
this is ridiculous kind of thing, or you just went with.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
It a lot of them. Okay, this is what this
is so funny. I mean to me, when Michael was
looking to hire me for Spin City, this is what
he says. He says, you know what we were talking about?
I go and he said, how about Heather Locklear? And
they go, oh, can she do comedy?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Yeah, and the answer is yes, Michael D.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Fox. Yeah, it's like the blowing up of the building
and we're all surviving. I thought it was outrageous. Yeah,
I love the phone in the boot.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
That's where's in your boot?
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Of course, how much might am I coming out with
my phone when something's going on? Yeah, because I go,
I didn't come out of the door because then the
next thing, but also, how would your phone work? Do
we have cell phones?
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Then cordless phone and it wasn't even a cell phone
or was it a self.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Cordless phone was connected to the phone that blew up.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
It's all rair.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
We have to reshoot the scene.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
To rewatch the scene, do it a castaic For some reason,
I think I was going around trying to warn people
because Kimberly had tied me up in the laundry room
or something like all this stuff so whatever can. But
then and then she comes out and she pushes the
button and we're all in various states of y. I
just remember when they had to go around and shoot
close ups like you're on the stairs and we're on
(11:06):
the ground and whatever. And they had crew members like
throwing rubble at us, so it looked like.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
It was like kind of like cardboard rubble. It was,
you know, it wasn't like but it was like followers.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
My god, I think. But I got the shoe, the
phone in the shoe, I think because it was maybe
the next season. So they ended with it blowing up ah,
and I go, I didn't have a phone in my hand,
it's in your boots.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
When we started to right convenient, maybe that's.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
When the phones came out, I got.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Do you guys remember that purses were annoyings.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Were an issue of where we're going to set it. Yeah,
they give you anything. Didn't weigh.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
This one or this one.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
You know, you know you won't be carrying sunglasses because
we don't own some glasses place.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Super Blinding came on as Sydney a few a couple
of weeks ago. She comes on chewing them, smoking a cigarette,
chain smoking a cigarette, hats what else?
Speaker 4 (12:13):
You broke all the rules.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
And we were in sunglasses.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
No one else smoked in the damn show.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
And when we had our photo shoot for the podcast
and we're out at a pool and dap peoples sunglasses
are like no sunglasses, Like even now, people are wearing
sunglasses throughout the whole.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
I mean we're here in La. This is like sunglass city.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You know. I do see a lot of shows with sunglasses.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
They were through I think more now you know they
were just plus there were Aaron spelling rules.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
Did you ever come up against that word?
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Couldn't say yes nothing. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
And then you notice your skirts getting shorter because you
got some pretty short skirts.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah. I can almost feel my crack while you're sitting
down because it goes exposed. Yeah, I got you're exposed.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
So did they see your old granny underwear?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I don't know. There's a reason hose then, No, I
don't think you wore panty hose, did you? We didn't
wear panty I don't remember. I was trying to remember
for that actolutely not. No, you didn't. I'm just telling
you you did not dynasty.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Pantyhose.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Nylons, But you were nylons.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
You were nominated like for a Golden Globe a couple
of times for.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Time Place, and that's how high the standards were, right,
really got times place.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Really, yeah, she did it, and then you got to
for Spin City.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
Yeah, and also for Spin City. I'm like, You've had
so many wonderful things happen, and.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Like noamis I think we got a People's Choice Award
as something, Yeah, like a server for the people.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
There was a surfboard for that.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Is that a surfboard is in the People's Choice of surfboard.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I don't know. We didn't.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Relate to us for some bizarre reason because there was
a young show.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Remember when they had thirty something, Yeah, so differently written, yes,
but this was a twenty something yeah, so nice.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
What about Darren? Did he ever talk to you, come
to set, talk to you about story things?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
I'll tell you. Darren and Grant and I we're in
New York. I'm wonder if someone else is with this.
I think it was just felt like it was just
the three of us, and somehow I heard about the Vault,
which is like a sex place, and so I'm like, we.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
Got it where I was going, and so you went there.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
The three of you got to go, and so we
go and that's I mean, there's it's like bankers and
stuff like that, who get paddled. They go on a
stage like where a model would walk, and the guy
walks and a dominatrix spank him on the ass as
they bend over, deep deep, and there's one guy who's
(15:11):
like no pants on but a jacket, and he's you
know when dogs scrape their butt because there's poopy on him.
The guy's doing that, like scraping. That's stage. I was
just across the room. Yeah, and then Grant and I
are walking around, not sure where Darren is at this time,
maybe he's got but so Grand and I are looking
(15:35):
because there's this people having sex behind this window and
we're like this, and then people are coming up around
Grant and I staring at us and we're looking. We're like,
we're not We're not doing that. Start taking off our
clothes and this is so bid. Yeah, this is New York,
(15:56):
but now it's in a different place. When I moved there,
when you looked at up, you're like, I want to
go back. No, my friends always pretty cellphone camera right,
Like we're lucky because we were I mean, I feel
very lucky that I was famous in a time when
you weren't watched all the time, right, Like Andrew and
I when we were dating, We could go, we could
(16:16):
put on a baseball cap and go out. It wasn't
the sense of being on camera all the time. That's
really crazy. Yeah, but it was a pretty mild time
there to have something like this compared to today. There
was no social media, Like we were really private out there.
We didn't really like you said, we didn't really know.
You'd kind of come into town. People would recognize me, like, oh,
I guess this little thing I'm doing out in Santa Clarita,
(16:38):
something's happening with it.
Speaker 5 (16:39):
Yeah, that trip to the Vault would have definitely made that.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
Would have been all over.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Yeah, that would have gotten some pressed.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
I remember to that not at all. I'm not comparing
this to at all the Vault story.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Because, like.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Told you what the next week, Okay, I just remember during.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Milros I was an acting class, or maybe just after just.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Before anyway, I was doing this scene and so I
went into do you remember that circus circus bookstore in Hollywood.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
West Hollywood, Yes, and in the back and it.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Was like this wasn't like sex books or something, or
a sex shop or some anyway.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
There's an Unsanta Monica boulevard.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Yeah, I was doing research for a scene in a
very sure just acting class is what I'm trying to
get to do.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
But I was recognized at like twelve, right after my class.
I got over twelve.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I go in there and I was so excited to
do some research and I'm like in there and someone
like recognizes me, Oh, aren't you Daphning.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
I'm like, oh, it's one in the morning and.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
I'm here at the sex store thing.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
It was just a it was you guys, don't remember
circus Circus, I remember the.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Marquis, I don't. I never knew what it was.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
I never went in No right, Laura.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Very observant.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
They were interesting anyway, sex toy, sex show people are
over there, so it was it was like a.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Videos or something.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Yeah, that's a sex store, but you're noticed. But the
videos did the most awkward time.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
And I was trying in this class.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
You got the video that I'm doing a sing from
playing Marilyn.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
I have to whatever it was getting recognized.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
It's a very Daphne's my twin sister.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
There's one of our fan questions. I love this question.
Did you feel pressure to rescue the show from cancelation?
Can you imagine if they said that to you show.
It's all on you. Yeah, yeah, I have nothing to
do with I.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Thought you were there before.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
That's what That's what I was there for. Did you
even know that the show was kind of limping along
or you thought they didn't even nobody they didn't tell
you except for audience, I wouldn't have done it. Yeah,
I did not know you totally.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Now we know right now, we know very well.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Go down. It's because you brought her on and we
cands well, I'm the way it's moving so fast in
your first two episodes. I can't imagine how quickly you
turn from But it's probably something about you and Billy,
because I keep telling Billy I don't want you guys
to date, and you keep asking me if I'm telling you,
oh yeah, it's fine, and then I go home and
yell at him for doing it. It's very very confused
(19:18):
there a little, it was a little it was a
little confused manipulation. But you're still Amanda is still so lovely.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
I thought you were very Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
I don't think I ever watched the show that much
or obvious clearly because we didn't have time. Yeah, yeah,
we're studying.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
So you don't remember kind of going these like the
scripts that you started to get to, like we're wow,
and now I'm causing a fight.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
Now I'm being.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Really and did you ever like go Jesus, I have
to say this, like some of your one liners are
you know?
Speaker 1 (19:49):
I was so scared to be in front of people,
like when I have to give speeches for about a
D and D or whatever? A D and D? What
about D and D? And there's people there at that
and it's like weird speak. It's not normal, like normal
people talking.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
And you have to be such an authority. Yes, yeah,
that was made me crazy. So not in your like
regular or no.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Who you want to keep all all do it again?
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Yeah, don't get that and do that.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
I want to keep keep keep keep by one take one,
take twenty times.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Yeah, yeah, it seems was it hard to be mean
constantly to everyone to say these sharp things like to
Alice that wasn't hard.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
That was fun?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Yeah, that was fun.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
And then we've talked about like wishing that while we
were on the show we all had sort of better
perspective or whatever. But was is there any that you
might say to your younger self? Does it bring you
back to how old you were and what your mindset
was than at thirty.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
I should have known better. I don't know, Like what's
wrong with me?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Well, you look like a young twenty something beautiful, you know,
we're all just so youthful and whatever, just like it
feels like another version of ourselves right right.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
But to her point, is there anything that you would
say to your younger self, regardless of how old you were,
knowing what you know now and being the age that
you are, and.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Like this stuff of just being so nervous or I'd
go back to my room and study the lines, like
I couldn't make a mistake or something like that, like having.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
That Oh, that's a question I want to ask you.
Was it hard to have not only that kind of pressure,
but just the pressure of being Amanda, of being Heather
of none of that was too much for you or uncomfortable.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
I just wanted to be good, and I just wanted
to be good the next day and the next day,
I just and I was grateful. I was really grateful.
I just wish I had paid attention to what was
going on around and like you know, with like caring
about what you're going through, you're going through, you're you know,
not just being so I hope it's okay, or I
hope I'm good or whatever like that, hope I know
(21:44):
my lines. I just like to be more personable with
everybody and know their lives rather than just to give
memorize your lives, go home and do this and then
rather than just thinking about my lilf. So there was
so much to do, thirty three episodes a year, like,
it was long, very intense, and we noticed, like as
we watch it. So I was on the first episodes
and I was beating myself up, and they're like, be
(22:05):
kinder to yourself. I like, I can't wait till you're
on camera. Then Daphne beats herself up and Laura beats
herself up. Really did you see? Because I look at everyone,
everyone else is doing such a good job, and then
I'm so hard on myself. Even thirty years later, I'm
beating myself up for choices I made in the scene.
Thirty years later, I'm like, wait, find some layers in this, right,
And it's fascinating to see that I've still got that
(22:25):
inner critic for that very young woman. It was a
really big job, right, Yeah, that felt like my first
big job. You know, because I wasn't ever like, did
it feel different?
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Did Melroe's place feel different from your other shows?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Absolutely it did. Yeah, there wasn't as much pressure, you know,
that's their job up there. Oh yeah, because it was
really on you, yeah this one. Yeah, I mean on
all of us. Yeah, but you were on the poster.
It was a lot of pressure on you.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Don't make her anxious now because.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
It's next questions relaxed. Yeah, I guess we all felt
that way, but just I guess there was no time
to really form friendships.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Yes, there was no time.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Well, and that's what's so sweet about there was honestly
like that that we've gotten so close to we get
to bring people in and have these moments and really
spend the time. It's been the sweetest, biggest surprise about
this podcast. Yeah, they're reconnecting. Yeah, it's so sweet and
soorry to see it.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Florida, Florida.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Yeah, that was like so nice talk. Everyone's just so
normal now, Yeah, exactly, Like we're not rushing, like this
is the thing we're doing, Like this is what I'm
doing on Wednesday. This is it And if I had
time before, I have time after your friend's parents do,
what does daddy do now? And like if we don't
have a regular job, well, daddy he kind of does
(23:54):
the same thing as you, like eats, exercises and watches
to be sched Like all my friend's parents do that.
Speaker 4 (24:04):
An interesting life, isn't it.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Yeah, well, we adore you so much. We were so
excited for you to be coming in, and we know
our listeners on the podcast could not wait for this
episode to have you. We would love to have you
come back. Would you like to come and do a
recap with us? Would you like to recap? We were
(24:27):
like when we go watch an episode, we watch an
episode and then we talked about the episode, like going
through we go And that's what's been so fun for
us to revisit the episodes.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
We pick an episode or something crazy happens, it'll be
fun if it was among us, something crazy and fighting fun. Yeah,
it's super fun.
Speaker 6 (24:44):
You know.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
So it's got to be in between the nap, right,
your very busy scheduled. Doesn't we work around your busy schedule?
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Yes, I would love to, but we realized, you know,
we used to be referred to as the Bod Squad
and we're just the pod squad.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Yeah, it doesn't bother me at all.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
It's a lot less pressure, less pressure. Often we're at
home on zoom with our dogs. It's a lot less pressure. Father,
Thank you so much, Thank you so good to see you.
What are we going to do that? When's the pod
squad going to do a Daytona squad?
Speaker 3 (25:21):
We should do that again for a girls weekend. Yeah, yeah,
let's do that. Let's go to the place in Castaic.
