Transcript

00:00The thing that people mostly do when they want to come and talk about White Lotus is

00:03talk about what happened to them when they were watching me.

00:06So they want to talk about how they had watch parties or they dressed up as the characters

00:09or some of the themes, you know, some of the sayings became kind of memes in their office.

00:15And when they want to talk to me about me, I think what they mostly say is, I thought

00:19I was going to hate you.

00:20And they began to empathize and they began to feel for me.

00:24Devastatingly, I know a principle like that.

00:27Some people come up to me and they're like, oh, man, I wish I could party like you on

00:31the studio.

00:32And I was like, me too.

00:33And they'd be like, whoa, you don't party like that?

00:35And I was like, no, man, I'm pretty boring these days.

00:38You know, I've gone to some meetings around town since the show came out.

00:44And it's always kind of the person who's walking me to the meeting who's like, I just have

00:49to say the studio was a documentary and it was about me.

00:53It's three words.

00:54Thanks, Pam Ramek.

00:55That's all I want you to put in there.

00:57People within the industry seem to really appreciate how realistic the show is.

01:00And even though it is heightened in some ways, I think it is also kind of capturing like an

01:05essential truth about the industry that we all work in and people not in the industry

01:11think it's just like an insane, completely exaggerated look at what Hollywood is, which

01:16it isn't.

01:17It's kind of back up for me.

01:18I really like you and Severance.

01:20You're really good.

01:21Have you finished Cold Harbor?

01:23No.

01:24No.

01:25I guess there's a lot of like, why did Mark make that choice at the end of season two?

01:35Are you really farting or is it a sound effect?

01:48I've had a lot of people say, you really look like you're in real pain when you're playing

01:54Jimmy.

01:55And I think that that's a compliment.

01:57They ask me if Jean is so cool and I say, yeah, she is as cool as you hope.

02:02People have been very tickled by Dance Mom and when, and they always come up to me with

02:08sparkly eyes and a smile wondering.

02:11I think they're wondering if any part of Dance Mom actually lives in me, the person.

02:16I don't think she does.

02:20And I would say from Sinatra, they enjoy coming up to tell me how much they hate me or how scared

02:26they are of me.

02:27Also with a smile, but very different feedback.

02:29The most gratifying feedback has come from the medical community.

02:32They were kind of the first audience we were trying to win over and in our efforts to be

02:37the most authentic medical drama on TV, I feel like that validation was most appreciated.

02:46My mom loves you.

02:47My aunt loves you.

02:49My, you know, it's, I think a lot of tired old working women really love Dana.

02:54I am so grateful that there's a mixed reaction to her because I think she is so socially inept

03:00and I think that can be played for laughs in some shows or to be like, oh, she's so quirky.

03:05Characters don't like her, but the audience does.

03:07I think actually it's not the truth of what it is to be lonely and to be socially inept

03:11and to have been isolated for your childhood.

03:13And so I'm really grateful that people are going, why is she like that?

03:17Who does Tim listen to?

03:19Well, he's an alpha male when he gets there.

03:21He's what Tom Wolfe called the big swinging dick of Wall Street.

03:23He's the big swinging dick of Durham, North Carolina.

03:25So I think he listens to annoying guitar bands that kind of drive you because he's about

03:30crushing and beating other people.

03:32And when he leaves, I think he's listening to some of that plinky plunky massage music

03:36that you get when you pay too much money.

03:38I mean, probably Beyonce, probably maybe Doja.

03:44And who else would she like?

03:47I think she likes all the big pop stars, Lady Gaga, you know, whoever the big DJ is in Cabo,

03:55or Ibiza.

03:56You know what I mean?

03:57That type of thing.

04:02Death metal holds rock.

04:05You know?

04:06100%.

04:07Oldies, you know.

04:09Yeah.

04:10Like, I mean, old rock.

04:11Yeah.

04:12Yeah.

04:13Like, Enter the Sandman.

04:14Yeah.

04:15Sabbath.

04:16Yeah.

04:17Black Sabbath for sure.

04:18I think Innie Mark likes Defiant Jazz because that's the only music he's ever heard.

04:25Oh, and the marching band.

04:29He loves that song.

04:30And my song when I sing.

04:31Yes.

04:32And Ms. Gobelle's singing.

04:34Those three songs.

04:36Oh, I think Dana listens to, like, Neil Young.

04:39I think Dana listens to 70s rock for sure.

04:42Bob Dylan.

04:43I think he's more of a classic rock and a kind of indie rock appreciated than anything else.

04:50I have, like, playlists in playlists.

04:52I think she's really listening to, like, top 100 pop girlies.

04:57Well, we know who Dance Mom listens to.

04:59Katy Perry.

05:00She loves Charlie.

05:01I think she loves Addison and Sabrina Carpenter.

05:03I don't think Sinatra's actually, I think Sinatra needs to listen to more music.

05:06I don't think she's spending much time with music.

05:08And maybe that's one of the places she needs to go to sort of relax.
