00:00The last time I saw you was upstairs. I know I know it's almost like we live here
00:05Do you feel like you just you need to deliver Bernie? I mean who lives here?
00:09I was gonna say Bernie Telsey lives here. We just got off a plane from the Olympics. Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:13Tell me about it because I saw you were there so tell me everything. It was so exciting. It was
00:17fabulous
00:17It was just like a dream come true who gets to go to the Olympics in Milan
00:22I know it was wonderful. And how did you use Warner Brothers Discovery? Yeah, Warner Brothers took us. Yeah, it
00:28was great
00:28What was your favorite event? Ice skating. Yeah, yeah, that the team the team ice skating event where it was
00:35like singles and pairs and they all
00:37When we won, yeah
00:40By the way, I was at home the other night
00:43Like I do to unwind at the end of a long day just like scrolling tick-tock and I came
00:47across the
00:48Colbert clips of you and I had forgotten that it was on that night
00:51So then I immediately turned my phone off turned on the TV and watched the whole episode
00:56Did not expect to be crying by the end of it that moment was so special and I'm just curious
01:00by the way you I
01:02You could hear a pin drop when you were retelling that story
01:04Did you have a nice moment with Steven after that to share like what that meant to you?
01:09Yes, yes
01:09Well, you know, I had tried to speak to he came up to me at the Emmys, you know, like
01:13I shared and I
01:15Had tried to talk to him that night and I was so tongue-tied but somehow we made some connection
01:19and and it was he was just so wonderful
01:21He's just I don't know. We have some connection. Yeah, I just said, you know, I think that it was
01:26true
01:27I mean, I just think he's such a treasure because he's able to deliver
01:31Messaging that people really need to hear in a format. That's kind of usually glib and topical and he's just
01:38Able to deliver it with humor and grace and ease and I can't wait to see what he does next
01:44What was so special about watching that was just thinking about you saying that to him at not only at
01:48this moment in your career
01:49What it meant to you, but also to for him to hear that at this moment in his career as
01:53he prepares to say goodbye
01:54Yes, I think it's really important to tell your story and I wanted him to know that him telling his
02:00story
02:00Really changed me and really mattered to me. Yeah, Catherine. What's been the most unexpected moment of your career so
02:07far? Wow
02:08I'm getting an Emmy nomination. Yeah. Yeah, I thought that it all passed me by and I was okay with
02:13it
02:13So it was just a bonus and you've had so many wonderful moments over these past few months of like
02:18Finding out how much your work has meant to people interacting with other actors
02:21Is there one that has like really stood out to you beyond the Stephen Cooley of it all but just
02:25another moment like with a fellow actor or performer?
02:28Jackie Weaver reached out and she was kind of my guiding light because she came on the scene and like
02:35her 60s and got an Oscar nomination and
02:37I don't think anyone in America had ever heard of her and I thought well god if she can do
02:42it
02:42Maybe there's hope for me and then for her to reach out not knowing that was really amazing
02:47Really amazing so then I'll ask you one last question upstairs
02:51I saw you and I was talking to Ray C Horn who was like Catherine's coming she's coming from the
02:54pit wrap party and then you got here
02:56What's a pit wrap party like a pit wrap party this year?
03:00It was kind of sedate because we had just had our premiere party like three days before so it was
03:04pretty sedate
03:05It's I don't know. It's fun about the whole cruise fun. They turn it up
