00:00I'm a gym rat.
00:02CrossFit or specifically?
00:05Name it.
00:06If I'm not at Equinox, I'm at Crunch.
00:12Where's the party?
00:13The party tonight, the after party tonight is...
00:16What is your room number?
00:17There's a place called Umlauts.
00:19That we're all going to.
00:21Umlauts.
00:22Yeah.
00:23Lots of people will be there.
00:24Yes, absolutely.
00:25Is that a sweet alley, Park City?
00:27I can't tell where it is.
00:29Right.
00:30The location.
00:31I just know that's the name of the party.
00:32Well, Umlauts probably.
00:33Yeah.
00:34They ask how many people are going to show up and they just go, hmm, lots.
00:36The password is Nicky Haley.
00:38That's so good.
00:41I'm sitting up here and I feel like I'm observing the whole scene.
00:44I'm just like...
00:45What's the angle on the story of reality that you're telling?
00:50Well, funny person in a serious situation is my favorite genre of thing to read and consume
00:55and make.
00:56And this is the story of an incredibly funny, witty person who was in a horrifically intense
01:03situation.
01:04And so, you know, all of these projects about her show a different kind of a different star
01:09in the constellation of her life.
01:11And our movie sort of shows the coming of age story that came before that, the context
01:16that led to that, which involved her being really like a funny irreverent, like quintessentially
01:20millennial person with lots of contradictions who loved, you know, guns and dogs and her
01:24family.
01:25But she was always kind of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.
01:27So it's really taking that person and like tracking her, her life story up until she did this
01:32thing that everyone knows her for.
01:34And then the aftermath of that to a lesser degree.
01:37But it's kind of, it's a coming of age dramedy about her family and her love life and all the
01:41other things that make her who she is.
01:43I'm curious if any of you guys have overlapping interests or quirks with any of realities.
01:50I'm a gym rat.
01:52CrossFit or specifically?
01:55Name it.
01:56If I'm not at Equinox, I'm at Crunch.
01:59What about New York sports club or that's, that's, no.
02:02That's, those were the comparisons that I could talk about.
02:06It's a hard question.
02:09Yeah.
02:10Like realities of comedy nerd, you know, so in a way like her references like culturally
02:16are like really have a lot of overlap with things that she thinks are funny are usually
02:20things that, you know, the shows she watches or the shows we all watch.
02:23And she's kind of like more plugged into the, the culture that you wouldn't necessarily
02:28like associate her with given how like intensely like political and she is, you know.
02:33Yeah.
02:34She's also kind of British in her sense of humor.
02:36She's like very, very sarcastic.
02:38So yeah, I definitely share that with reality.
02:41Do you guys have any interests or things like that, that we might be surprised to learn
02:46about you that people might not know?
02:48Brittany is a scientist and a chemist.
02:51And I took a physics class at UCLA recently.
02:54So we're kind of nerds.
02:56I did.
02:57How'd you do?
02:58I got an A obviously got an A.
03:00Woo!
03:01I was a nerd in school.
03:02Okay.
03:03I was pretty good in school.
03:04I wasn't going to be a scientist.
03:06Maybe, maybe in another version of my life.
03:09But I think, I think just that I, I like science.
03:13I liked, I heard she has a great podcast and I listened to it every day and I learned
03:16a lot.
03:17So I nerded out a little bit.
03:18Zach, if you were to bring reality onto Between Two Ferns, what would you want to ask?
03:28Why are you here?
03:30Um, I wouldn't want to do that to her.
03:34That's so sweet.
03:35No, she's, I would, no, I wouldn't want to put her in that situation.
03:39She's very funny though.
03:40I mean, I taught, I got to meet her yesterday.
03:43You can tell that she has a very sharp wit.
03:46She would be a good, a good guest on that.
03:49Uh, but, uh, yeah, I don't want to be mean to her.
03:53I hear that.
03:54It only like, like Barack Obama, he can.
03:56Well, he's powerful.
03:57It's okay to be mean to the powerful.
03:59That's the whole point.
04:01Yeah.
04:02Um, we'll get her a part and then she can.
04:04Oh yeah.
04:05Yes.
04:06Yes.
04:07That's right.
04:08There's a couple other things like on the to-do list.
04:09Yeah.
04:10Yeah.
04:11Totally.
04:12Check those out.
04:13Where are you hoping that your journey in 2024 takes you?
04:16I guess a lot of Philly accent.
04:18I have a TV show and I got a lot of Philly accents.
04:21That's my goal right now.
04:22Are you, are you watching anyone for inspiration?
04:25I'm watching Mare of Easttown.
04:27I'm just kidding.
04:28Okay.
04:29Yeah.
04:30And I'm, yeah, I don't know.
04:31You have any other suggestions?
04:32Well, you know what you should do?
04:33You should Google, um, Philly cheesesteak, critical local commercials.
04:37Cause they used to have them in Philadelphia.
04:40And if you, the, you will hear the most authentic, if you just look up local Philadelphia commercials,
04:45that's where you'll hear it.
04:46That's good.
04:47Okay.
04:48If you need me after this, that's what I'll be doing.
04:49Okay.
04:50About less.
04:51Yeah.
04:52That's what she says.
04:53I take it.
04:54I teach an acting class at the learning annex.
04:56If anyone's interested.
04:57What is a classic movie that you have pretended to have seen?
05:03I can promise you if anyone here answers, I will not make you watch that movie with me.
05:07Okay.
05:08Great.
05:09Titanic.
05:10Never seen it.
05:11Whoa.
05:12And now you guys are going to be like, let's come to my house.
05:13We're going to watch.
05:14That's what happens next.
05:15Whoa.
05:16That's kind of crazy.
05:17Never seen it.
05:18Is there a specific reason?
05:19And now I know all the references.
05:20The Star Wars.
05:21Wow.
05:22The Simons?
05:23Yeah.
05:24No one's upset about that the way they were.
05:26Any of the Star Wars's?
05:27No, none.
05:28None of them.
05:29Apart from the clip that we played in Capos.
05:32Right.
05:33Yes.
05:34That's true.
05:35Other than that.
05:36You played a person who was bored by a movie that you've actually never seen.
05:37Zach, anything?
05:38He's seen it all.
05:39You've seen everything.
05:40He's an acting teacher.
05:41I've never seen The Animal House.
05:43I mean, I think you're supposed to see that movie if you're a comedian, but I've never seen
05:48it.
05:49Or The Hangover movies.
05:52You didn't watch it?
05:53What are those?
05:54They're really funny.
05:55I love those movies.
05:56I'll be the judge of that.
