00:03Connor. Yes. We hear you love languages and accents. Other than Russian, what's your favorite?
00:10Ooh, I'm kind of always switching between languages. Right now, I really want to learn
00:16Spanish. I'm from West Texas, so I've always heard Spanish. And living in LA, there's Spanish
00:21everywhere. So it doesn't feel very, like, exotic to me because I've heard it my whole life. But
00:28I think it's sexy. Spanish is muy sexy. Yes, I think Colombian Spanish, I think, is the
00:36sexiest language there is. I like the traditional Spain-Spanish. Spain-Spanish.
00:40Vamos a la playa de Barcelona. Barcelona. Con Javier Baidén. Yeah. And Vanela Bicruz.
00:47Ana de Armas. Ana de Armas. She's Cuban, right? She's Cuban. Okay. Pretty girl. Okay.
00:53This year marks 20 years since Brokeback Mountain. Are there any MM romance movies,
00:58shows, or books that have really stuck with you, either growing up or recently?
01:02Well, I love Brokeback Mountain. It was one of the first things that you told me.
01:06Yeah. Yeah. I love Keith Ledger plays Ennis. I still think it's his best work. I think that
01:11was one of the first pivotal ones when you have two leading men take on, you know, gay cowboys.
01:18It's pretty bold. But then, you know, you have Call Me By Your Name, Moonlight, I think with
01:23Barry Jenkins saying, bringing the art house to the hood is what he said. That was already just
01:29a beautiful juxtaposition. And then having, you know, he said he wanted to redefine masculinity
01:34with that movie, which I thought was so cool. Yeah. Call Me By Your Name, I think, was like
01:38pretty revolutionary. Yeah. Yeah. I was in high school at that time. And I remember that being the
01:42first thing that felt like it was really a part of the cultural zeitgeist. And also handled like,
01:51it also handled queer stories in a really cool way where it was so under the surface and it made
01:56it so human, you know, which I think also was kind of like a moonlight scenario where we're taking
02:03these people in such a specific time and place and like letting them explore love.
02:08Right. What does smut mean to you?
02:14I'm going to try to make an acronym. Sexy. This is going to be in relation to, um,
02:20to Ember and Ice.
02:23Ember and Ice. Sexy. Magic. Um, Universe.
02:31T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T I have no
02:40idea. What did I say? Sexy. Magic.
02:43Universe. Universe. Um, titillating.
02:48Yeah.
02:49Yeah, we'll do that.
02:50Titillating.
02:51Oh, you very publicly shot your shot for Nightwing,
02:55which was extremely fun to watch.
02:57Have you been a DC fan?
02:59And what is it like to see fans instantly rally behind you,
03:02especially the ones that say you have the face,
03:04the talent, and the butt?
03:05I will be completely honest.
03:08When I saw some fan art of you as Nightwing,
03:11I was, like, blown away.
03:13Whoa.
03:14Like, I...
03:15Wow.
03:15I mean, you never know if that's going to come to fruition or not,
03:18but when I see, like, someone did you in the comic book style,
03:22I was like, I see it right away.
03:24Wow.
03:24Yeah, I would love to play him.
03:26I love DC.
03:28I loved all, like, comic books that were true to the source material.
03:37And I think, you know, there are a lot of good filmmakers
03:41who, like, bring their own style to these, you know,
03:46beloved comics that I think it would be really great to work with them.
03:49You know, I'm not fully set on Nightwing.
03:52You know, I'm open to other things.
03:54Did you always want to be in, like, did...
03:58Superheroes?
03:58Superheroes?
03:59No.
03:59Is that always something that's been, like, I need to do that?
04:01Absolutely not.
04:02It's just kind of come on.
04:02It's when really good filmmaker...
04:05It's filmmaker-driven.
04:06So when, like, a guy like James Gunn or Matt Reeves, you know,
04:10comes to comics, I think that's what draws me.
04:15And I heard James Gunn is doing the Teen Titans.
04:18I know there's...
04:19Yeah, but...
04:20Yeah.
04:21James Gunn, he's in love with you.
04:23True or false.
04:24Hudson is more like Ilya in real life,
04:26and Connor is more like Shane.
04:28I think me and you are both like Rose.
04:31And I'm like Svetlana.
04:33I just said me and you are both like Rose.
04:36But I'm just parting ways.
04:38That's so Svetlana for you to say.
04:41I don't know.
04:42I mean, maybe I do feel like Ilya.
04:45I don't know.
04:46I think that I'm too sensitive or outwardly sensitive
04:51or don't have a lot of shame around emotion to be Ilya.
04:54I could be a little cocky like Ilya.
04:56Yeah.
04:56But beyond that, it's like I think Shane and Ilya
05:00sort of share a soulfulness
05:03that's kind of buried under all these walls
05:06and kind of masks.
05:09But I think underneath that,
05:11what we both relate with both of them
05:13is the heart and their soul.
05:17After wrapping Heated Rivalry,
05:19you two got matching tattoos that say sex sales.
05:22And if true, how did that happen?
05:25Did I have a reason for coming up to Vancouver?
05:27I just wanted to come see you.
05:29Yeah, come hang out.
05:29Am I not good enough?
05:31Come on.
05:31Yeah, I just, I don't know why for a second I was like,
05:33I have something to do up there.
05:35I have nothing to do in Vancouver.
05:37I was there.
05:38So, yeah, I just went up to see,
05:41I just came up to see you.
05:43We knew we wanted to get matching tattoos.
05:44I hadn't gotten a tattoo in forever.
05:47And we were just shuffling through ideas.
05:49And yeah, we did it.
05:51I think you came up with sex sales.
05:52But like we were both pitching ideas.
05:54And then one person would like them.
05:56The other person wouldn't.
05:57And then when you said sex sales,
05:58I was like, oh.
05:59We were sold.
06:00That's the first idea you've had.
06:01That's good.
06:01I think it's honestly my most well done tattoo as well.
06:04So that feels good.
06:06The front of my shin.
06:07Pull in here.
06:08Zoom in.
06:10True or false.
06:12You ate a pound of beef,
06:13of ground beef a day while filming Heated Rivalry.
06:17True.
06:18Connor told me what his routine was.
06:20And after I saw him in person,
06:22I asked him how he got to that size.
06:25I thought he was taking illicit substances.
06:27He wasn't.
06:28He does it super clean.
06:29Sorry I mentioned illicit substances.
06:32But he was...
06:33I have nothing to hide.
06:34Bring it on.
06:34But he was so...
06:38Just like...
06:39So I was like,
06:41what are you eating, freak?
06:43And I was like,
06:43I'm eating...
06:46And he just couldn't speak.
06:47And he just kept doing that.
06:48And I was like,
06:48I think that means ground beef.
06:51You're like,
06:51that level of capability is what I need.
06:54And then Connor was actually the person
06:55who put me onto fiber.
06:57Because if you need to eat the protein,
06:59you want to get, you know,
07:00iliac cheeks and chests.
07:03You need so much fiber
07:05just so your stomach doesn't shut down
07:07and you go into cardiac arrest
07:09and you get carried out
07:10from your little workout on a stretcher
07:13with some, you know,
07:14pumped up pecs
07:15and a shut down fucking digestive system.
07:16You look good.
07:18It's really unfortunate
07:19if it ends that way.
07:20Yeah.
07:20Yeah, I actually...
07:22I'm going to one-up this true or false.
07:24I actually think that
07:25we ate more than a pound of beef.
07:27Yeah.
07:27Because a pound of beef only has,
07:28I think, 84 grams of protein.
07:31And you need a solid 200
07:32for our size and shape.
07:35If you were going through...
07:35So sometimes I can eat
07:36two pounds of ground beef a day.
07:38Plus like 10 eggs.
07:40Yeah.
07:40And so many salads.
07:41I was having so much salad.
07:42Because by the end,
07:43I got like, gained 10 pounds.
07:45So like when I started shooting,
07:46I was like...
07:47And by the end,
07:48I was like 10 pounds heavier.
07:49And it was because of...
07:50Yeah, you...
07:50Yeah, you...
07:51I mean, you're very inspiring.
07:52I'm glad that we had each other
07:53because it would have been
07:55really hard to be motivated
07:56if, you know,
07:57we were going back to our...
07:5812-hour days and then the gym.
08:00And then like going back
08:00to a residence like alone.
08:02It's really...
08:03It's nice that I got to be like,
08:05hi, son.
08:05Let's go to gym.
08:07Mm-hmm.
08:07And we would go
08:08from a fucking 11-hour day
08:10skating lesson
08:11and Connor would go,
08:11let's do legs.
08:13And I looked at him.
08:14He's a madman.
08:15That's how he has a butt.
08:16He'll finish a skating lesson
08:18that takes four hours
08:19and then go,
08:20legs now?
08:21And I was like,
08:22what are you saying?
08:23Okay.
08:24I knew I had a responsibility
08:27to the people.
08:28He's America's ass.
08:30And I take that very seriously.
08:33Romance readers are famously passionate
08:35about book adaptations.
08:36Did you feel any pressure
08:38bringing a beloved story to life
08:39and how did you approach
08:41making the characters your own?
08:42It's good, I think,
08:43to go into a project
08:45accepting that, you know,
08:48people might be disappointed,
08:49especially with something
08:50like a book
08:50where everyone already
08:51has preconceived notions.
08:52They've envisioned
08:54these characters.
08:54They've drawn these characters.
08:56They've gotten tattoos
08:57of these characters.
08:58Like, the love is already there
09:00so much that ultimately
09:01someone is going
09:02to be disappointed.
09:03All you can do
09:05is read the material
09:07as much as you possibly can
09:12and respect it,
09:13show the respect,
09:14show the dedication,
09:15and just hope that people,
09:16you know,
09:17connect with it
09:17and love it
09:18and see that enthusiasm.
09:19I think we both
09:20had that level of,
09:21whether you want to call it
09:23nihilism or not,
09:23like,
09:24people might just hate this.
09:26People might hate your casting
09:27or they might hate my casting.
09:28I'm not going to expect
09:29anything more.
09:31And I'm just going
09:32to do the best I can.
09:33But you have really
09:35no metric of
09:36if people are going
09:37to be warm
09:38to your take.
09:39I really think
09:39at the end of the day,
09:40all you can do
09:41is be really intentional,
09:43give it 150%.
09:45Yeah.
09:46Just go for it.
09:47And luckily for us,
09:49this worked out
09:50really freaking well.
09:52Woo!
09:53Woo!
09:54Woo!
09:55Woo!
09:55Woo!
09:55Hudson,
09:56we have heard rumors
09:56about a very serious
09:58multi-step Korean
09:59skincare routine.
10:00Can you break it down
10:01for us?
10:01It's not that lengthy.
10:03I always made fun
10:03of you for it too
10:04because I,
10:05like,
10:05honestly,
10:06I'm just kind of jealous
10:07because you have
10:07really good skin.
10:09But I'm always like,
10:10yeah,
10:10your skin routine.
10:11And then it's actually
10:12not that long.
10:13It's not that long.
10:14It's okay.
10:15I'm going to tell you.
10:16In the morning,
10:17I use water
10:18to cleanse my face.
10:19Warm water.
10:20And then I put on
10:21a glow toner,
10:23but it's pretty dry.
10:25It's not like,
10:25I don't like when people
10:26have like dewy,
10:27like if I see someone
10:28that looks like
10:28they just wore a face
10:29mask,
10:29I'm like,
10:30why are you out
10:30right now?
10:31Like,
10:31go wipe that off
10:33and then come talk
10:33to me because I won't
10:34right now.
10:35And then,
10:36so my toner,
10:36and then I'll put on
10:38a serum
10:40and then sunscreen.
10:41And then sometimes
10:42instead of a serum,
10:43I put on a moisturizer.
10:44And then my PM routine
10:46is an oil cleanser,
10:48you know,
10:48to get out these blackheads
10:49to get the gunk out.
10:52And then I'll either use
10:54like a CeraVe
10:55normal-ass cleanser
10:56or I'll use
10:57like a pore shrinking
10:58cleanser.
10:59That's their new,
10:59that's their new slogan.
11:02CeraVe normal-ass cleanser.
11:05I think that is.
11:06I, yeah,
11:07I also like CeraVe.
11:07And then like a pore shrink,
11:09or a pore shrinking cleanser
11:10if that's my goal.
11:11And then the same thing.
11:12Toner, serum,
11:14and then either a retinol
11:15or a salicylic acid.
11:16And then I go to
11:16fucking sleep.
11:19So I think everyone
11:21in the studio agrees
11:22that was a lot.
11:23Well, I will also say,
11:24I mean, it makes sense.
11:25You have flawless skin.
11:28So.
11:28And then when I take it off,
11:29it just falls apart.
11:31Yeah.
11:31He unhooks the,
11:32he unhooks the clip back here.
11:34The clip in the back.
11:35Keeps it all up.
11:36Connor.
11:37Yes.
11:38Story.
11:39Yes.
11:39Do you have a favorite
11:40spicy scene from
11:41Heated Rivalry
11:41and a favorite from
11:42Ember and Ice?
11:43What makes those
11:43stand out for you?
11:44My favorite spicy scene
11:45from Ember and Ice
11:47is actually a scene
11:48where Dane is with
11:50two former lovers,
11:52Cassandra and Elijah.
11:53Yep.
11:58I need you to,
11:59I need you to be here
12:00with me.
12:01Okay.
12:02Dane has an interaction
12:04with two of his
12:06former lovers
12:07after having been
12:08with Finn for some time.
12:11And, yeah,
12:13not to spoil,
12:14but he ends up realizing
12:15that what really works
12:18for him
12:18isn't working
12:18for him anymore.
12:20And it's kind of
12:21this moment
12:21of identity loss
12:23and, you know,
12:24what pleases me
12:25isn't pleasing me
12:26the same.
12:26I think that's really cool.
12:28Because it's also,
12:28it's, because it's cool
12:29because it's like
12:30sexy and spicy,
12:31but it also is
12:32really revealing
12:33of the character
12:34and the connection
12:34and where he's at,
12:36you know.
12:36And I think it's funny,
12:38I think I remember
12:39Dane saying something
12:40about, he's like,
12:41he's like,
12:42and then the next thing
12:43I did was I just had
12:44to come up with
12:45an excuse.
12:46And then he's like,
12:47he's like,
12:47my friends,
12:48I have bad news.
12:50I have a lot
12:51from Ember and Ice,
12:51but one is the lake scene
12:54where we kind of
12:55go in together
12:56and you kind of
12:57coax it out of me
12:57without spoiling too much.
13:00I think that one's just,
13:01you know,
13:02a lot of times,
13:02like the intimacy
13:03before intimacy,
13:04I think it has
13:05more of a charge
13:06in a way.
13:07That one really got me
13:10frothing at the mouth.
13:11And Heated Rivalry,
13:13favorite intimate scene.
13:15There was one
13:16that was really fun to film.
13:17Do you remember
13:17filming the stair-step scene?
13:19When we're like
13:19kissing against the glass
13:21and our lips
13:22never come apart,
13:23me and you were like,
13:24do people do this?
13:25Do people like...
13:26I know,
13:26it's always a fun balance,
13:28right,
13:28of like when you're filming,
13:30separate from like
13:31the audio space
13:32when you're filming,
13:34it's like
13:34how much of it
13:35is fun TV
13:38and then how much of it
13:39is like true sex?
13:41Because at the end of the day,
13:42you know,
13:42you do have,
13:43in real life,
13:44people do have those
13:45movie moments
13:46where you're like,
13:47you know,
13:47and you're like,
13:48yeah, yeah.
13:49And then everyone on set
13:50was like,
13:50oh yeah,
13:50no,
13:50I've done that.
13:52And then Connor
13:52and I were like,
13:53oh,
13:54we usually fold our clothes,
13:56place them down,
13:57then go upstairs.
13:58We're both chained,
13:58naked and go,
14:00sex now?
14:01Sex now?
14:02I'm robot.
14:03Plug me in.
14:05True or false,
14:06Hudson's roommates
14:07once kept a mooning tally
14:09of how many times
14:10he flashed them.
14:11Do you know?
14:13How many times?
14:14I know that you,
14:15I've, yeah,
14:15I remember this.
14:16Yeah.
14:16It's true.
14:17It was one roommate.
14:19And I mooned him 31 times.
14:23What was his reaction
14:24when you mooned him?
14:25Was he like,
14:26Hudson?
14:28Her poor name was Chelsea.
14:30I have talked with her
14:31and Chelsea has been like,
14:32you can say my name.
14:33And I was like,
14:34so I've since talked
14:35about this since.
14:36Double consent.
14:37Double consent.
14:38And poor Chelsea would just go,
14:40I think her main reaction
14:41was like,
14:42oh, Hudson,
14:46and it made me so happy.
14:50Where is Chelsea now?
14:52And I developed
14:53different techniques
14:53over the years.
14:56She's chilling.
14:57She's got a cat
14:57that's like hanging
14:58off her walls.
14:59But I would go
15:00and I would do like a drive-by.
15:01I had all these
15:02different techniques.
15:03And then she would bring
15:04like other, you know,
15:06romantic interests home.
15:07And then they're like,
15:08what's this tally up on the board?
15:10And they're like,
15:10oh, that's how many times
15:12Hudson, my roommate,
15:13has mooned me.
15:14And they were like,
15:15would you just like
15:16kind of butt crack it
15:17or would you full cheek?
15:18So I had one
15:18where I would get pants low,
15:21like I would de-pants
15:22and she would be unassuming,
15:24like maybe on her phone,
15:25on the couch.
15:26And I would run by
15:27and jump in the air.
15:28So I was like a,
15:30like a,
15:31like a literal moon.
15:32A literal moon,
15:33but in fast motion.
15:34Sometimes I would just do the like,
15:36oh, drop something
15:37before we leave,
15:37bend and I'm right there.
15:39Gotcha.
15:40Oh, God.
15:41The airborne moon is crazy.
15:43Yes.
15:44No, they,
15:44they got very athletic.
15:45But we need to clarify,
15:46if you were going to moon someone,
15:48make it a close friend.
15:49Chelsea is still my close friend.
15:51Make it known
15:51that this is okay.
15:53Yep.
15:53She got a hoot out of it.
15:55Do not moon people
15:56you don't know
15:57in places it's not okay.
16:00Hudson,
16:01as an Asian actor
16:01leading such a hugely popular
16:03queer romance,
16:04what kind of stories
16:04or roles are you excited
16:05for more people
16:07to see you in going forward?
16:08Mmm.
16:10Yeah,
16:11I,
16:12I want to,
16:12I want to represent
16:13my,
16:14my Wajians out there.
16:15You know,
16:16um,
16:17I have been declared,
16:18do you know about this?
16:20Mm-mm.
16:21I'm declared the,
16:22I think princess
16:22or prince of Wajia.
16:25Me.
16:26I mean,
16:27I,
16:27I sign off on it.
16:28Okay.
16:28I think you,
16:29he's the final stamp off guy
16:30for this.
16:32So,
16:32yeah,
16:33I'm the,
16:33I'm the ambassador
16:35of Wajia
16:35as a fully,
16:36as a completely Caucasian.
16:38Yes.
16:39But,
16:39uh,
16:40as,
16:40as,
16:41uh,
16:41this,
16:41um,
16:42little Wajian I am,
16:44and I hope
16:45to just do roles
16:47that aren't always charged
16:49with,
16:50you know,
16:50I'm happy to do roles
16:51that are,
16:52you know,
16:52race has something
16:53to,
16:53to play in there.
16:55But also,
16:55I just want to be an actor
16:56and a lot of the times
16:57I just want to play parts
16:58where it's like,
17:00I'm,
17:00I'm just there
17:01and we don't need to go
17:02in my backstory
17:03or whatever.
17:04It's just,
17:05you know,
17:05I'm playing what any other,
17:07uh,
17:08non-person of color
17:10would play as well.
17:11You know?
17:12You're a person,
17:13you want to be treated?
17:13I'm a person.
17:14Love it, baby.
17:16On both
17:16Heated Rivalry
17:17and Ember and Ice,
17:19you worked with
17:19an intimacy coordinator.
17:20Um,
17:21why do you think
17:21that role matters
17:22on projects like this?
17:23Was there anything
17:24about the process
17:24that you think
17:25would surprise people?
17:27Wow.
17:27I mean,
17:28I think it's so,
17:29um,
17:30yeah,
17:30that's a,
17:31yeah,
17:31that question is,
17:32I mean,
17:33it's so important.
17:34I mean,
17:35you,
17:36you literally can't
17:37do things
17:39without that role.
17:40Um,
17:41the thing that I think
17:41would shock people
17:42about the role
17:43of intimacy coordinating
17:44is it's not just about,
17:47and this is what I learned
17:48from Shayla originally
17:49and then also Jamie
17:50doing this,
17:51it's not just about
17:52the actual safety,
17:54the boundaries,
17:55monitoring,
17:56what's going on,
17:57what that looks like,
17:58making sure everyone's okay.
17:59there's also actually
18:01a conjunction
18:02of an artistic edge
18:04where you are,
18:06like Jamie with this,
18:07you know,
18:07was also the voice
18:09that was reminding us,
18:10this is how long
18:11it's been since this happened,
18:12you know,
18:13you need to,
18:13I need to hear that shiver
18:15or that I need to hear those,
18:18um,
18:18I need to hear that feeling
18:20through your wings,
18:21I need to see that come about,
18:23I need to feel that pleasure
18:24in this way.
18:25So it's not always technical,
18:26even though that's what I feel
18:27like is brought up a lot,
18:28there is also an artistic
18:30sensibility to that job
18:31and that really promotes
18:33that conversation.
18:34Absolutely.
18:35Bring in the first ginger ale.
18:38This is so fun.
18:40We have Canada Dry,
18:41we have Schweppes,
18:42we have,
18:44can someone give me
18:44a rundown of the brands?
18:46Nope, you're good.
18:46And we're gonna go.
18:48I've only named two from memory.
18:50Well, how about this,
18:50I'll hold it so we don't,
18:51we don't give away anything.
18:53Yeah, so we don't have flavors,
18:53so you describe the flavor
18:55and the texture for it.
18:58Yep, that's my Hudson.
19:00That's my Hudson.
19:03That's not Canada Dry,
19:05this is some shitty
19:05American ginger ale.
19:07This is like Schweppes
19:09or like,
19:11yeah, that's my guess.
19:13You said it's not Canada Dry,
19:15why is it not Canada Dry?
19:16Canada Dry's got more ginger in it
19:18and more bubble in it.
19:20It's just subtle ginger.
19:22Yeah.
19:22Go ahead and,
19:23should we de-blindflip?
19:24Go ahead and take a little peek.
19:27You got,
19:29we got you.
19:31Where is this imported from?
19:33This, this is,
19:35this is,
19:35no,
19:36no way.
19:37it says from Frisco, Texas.
19:40Nope.
19:40Frisco, Texas, baby.
19:41I don't,
19:41I don't,
19:42this is,
19:43it changed,
19:44it changed.
19:45Bring in ginger ale number two.
19:47That is so embarrassing.
19:50Thank you so much.
19:52This one was,
19:53that one was Canada Dry.
19:55What is this one?
19:57I'm gonna,
19:58I'm nom nom.
19:59I'm nom nom.
20:01You're my baby.
20:03Drink more.
20:04Okay.
20:06This is cough syrup.
20:07This is,
20:09this is yellow snow.
20:11What is this?
20:12A pissy pineapple.
20:15But,
20:15that's the brand,
20:16Hudson.
20:18I have to guess the brand?
20:20Davai,
20:21yeah.
20:21This is Schweppes.
20:23Okay,
20:23this one is Schweppes.
20:25Schweppes.
20:25That's what I'm taking it to dry out.
20:30I am so happy that I'm not the one tasting these,
20:33because if I was getting them wrong,
20:34I'd feel like an idiot.
20:36No,
20:36I'm kidding.
20:37I'm kidding.
20:39It's stupid.
20:40It's stupid.
20:41No,
20:41you're not.
20:42I mean,
20:42they,
20:43they really set you up.
20:44Give me another one.
20:45Do you have more?
20:46Bring me,
20:47bring in,
20:48how many more?
20:49Bring in the last one.
20:50Bring it to me.
20:53Ooh,
20:54this one's a hard one.
20:59Oh,
21:00no.
21:04Uh-huh.
21:06Add them.
21:09That's,
21:10um,
21:11that's
21:11fever tree,
21:12fever tree,
21:13ginger,
21:13um,
21:14um,
21:15beer.
21:17Hudson?
21:18Oh,
21:18but,
21:19what?
21:19What flavor?
21:20What,
21:20there's a,
21:21there's a secondary flavor.
21:24Hmm.
21:26Do you want to smell test too?
21:28You want to do like a,
21:28no,
21:29it's just ginger.
21:29No,
21:30but do like an aromatics test.
21:34Go,
21:35full Somme vibes.
21:37Do you smell that?
21:39Oh,
21:39it's hard to,
21:40it's hard to smell.
21:41It's fucking ginger,
21:42pear?
21:43Fucking,
21:44it's ginger.
21:44Yeah,
21:45I'm going to be honest,
21:46he would never be able to,
21:47you can't taste that flavor at all.
21:50Woo!
21:51What?
21:52Blood orange?
21:53Good job.
21:53You can't taste that at all.
21:54You put food coloring in.
21:56You didn't put no blood orange in there.
21:58I will say,
21:58I kind of like this one though.
22:00That one's,
22:00that one's nice.
22:01I like all of them.
22:02But I guess the brand,
22:03did I not?
22:04You killed it.
22:05When did you first realize you clicked?
22:07And what are some of your favorite memories
22:09from working together?
22:11Hmm.
22:12I would say our first FaceTime
22:14outside of a chemistry read,
22:15because at that point,
22:16I was always Shane,
22:17he was always Ilya.
22:18But then when we first met over FaceTime
22:21before we went to Toronto,
22:24we had so many,
22:26like so much overlap of movies we liked,
22:28actors we liked,
22:30art we liked,
22:31and similar approaches to how we,
22:33you know,
22:34like to perform.
22:35That I immediately knew.
22:37I think we clicked there.
22:38And I think that's saying a lot,
22:39because I think some of our,
22:40our interests can be pretty niche.
22:43The fact that there is overlap is amazing.
22:46And favorite memories,
22:47I would say all our laughs on set.
22:51Being in Muskoka was really beautiful.
22:54There was a lot of like lounging around.
22:58You know,
22:59it was just great.
22:59My favorite memories of working with you
23:01are also the laughs.
23:03What's,
23:04what's like an inside joke
23:04that we just died over the whole time?
23:09We had a storm the set.
23:11That was also with,
23:11Oh yeah.
23:12I would always be like,
23:13Storm the set!
23:15If we couldn't afford extras,
23:16our idea was we would just like,
23:18do like a cattle call.
23:20We used to joke that like we,
23:22because we would have like airport scenes and stuff
23:24where there would be like,
23:26you know,
23:26five people.
23:26For an airport,
23:27you need like,
23:27you need a bunch of people
23:28and we'd have like five people.
23:30And I just imagined,
23:31I imagined Jacob being like,
23:34being like,
23:35Costo,
23:35get up there!
23:36And everyone's like,
23:37taking off their mics
23:38and he's like,
23:39Storm the set!
23:40Opening the garage
23:42and just like opening it up
23:43to the public.
23:44How does it feel
23:45to accidentally launch
23:46a workout movement?
23:49I can't,
23:50I honestly still cannot believe
23:51that that was someone's takeaway
23:54from this,
23:55you know?
23:55I,
23:56like,
23:56I think I look a little too shabby.
23:58I'm,
23:58I'm in the process of gaining weight
24:00right now.
24:01Yeah,
24:01I was,
24:01when you look,
24:02you look freaking fantastic.
24:04Well,
24:04bring it back to my Spanish.
24:05Muchas gracias.
24:06De nada,
24:06corazón de melón.
24:08Ah,
24:08mi hermoso.
24:10No,
24:10esposo,
24:11mi amor.
24:11Todo mi corazón.
24:13Um,
24:14yeah,
24:15I,
24:15people,
24:16people like our bodies.
24:17Let's just be honest about it.
24:19People,
24:19you know,
24:20I care about my health,
24:21I care about my fitness,
24:22as do you.
24:25honestly,
24:25watching the show
24:26is making us
24:27work out even more.
24:28Yeah.
24:28So what drew you
24:30to doing a Faye Romanticist story
24:32and what was it about
24:32the script that hooked you?
24:34For me,
24:34it was exploring sensuality
24:37with,
24:37with your voice.
24:38You know,
24:39that's the only tool you have
24:41and it kind of scared me
24:43a little bit
24:43and,
24:44you know,
24:44there,
24:44there,
24:45it was a really fun way
24:47to explore yourself.
24:48It was fun.
24:48It was actually fun.
24:49And,
24:50you know,
24:50it's very demanding
24:51and it's,
24:51it's well written.
24:52I think in the booth,
24:54I,
24:54the term
24:57winged Hemingway
24:58came up,
24:59you know,
25:00fantastical Hemingway
25:01because there was like war,
25:03there's like this romance
25:04that's forbidden
25:06and it seems doomed
25:08in a lot of ways
25:10and that was
25:11way heavier
25:13than I thought,
25:14you know,
25:14this would look like
25:15and it was really rewarding.
25:17The story just moves
25:19really well too.
25:20It was just written
25:21really well
25:23as someone who,
25:25you know,
25:26is not a big reader.
25:27I think something like this
25:28would be really appealing
25:29to me.
25:30Just the way it,
25:31it cycles through
25:32the feelings,
25:33it cycles through
25:34the years.
25:35Different point of views.
25:35Yeah,
25:36I just think it's really
25:37like almost physically
25:38well done.
25:39Why do you think
25:40MM romance resonates
25:41so strongly with women
25:42right now?
25:44Hmm.
25:46Yeah,
25:46we've,
25:47we've both talked about this
25:48and kind of been intrigued
25:49by it.
25:50There's so many reasons.
25:51There's so many reasons
25:52and then even just women,
25:53you know,
25:54there are straight women,
25:56there are trans women,
25:57there are gay women,
25:59like queer women.
26:00It's,
26:00it's,
26:01well that feels like
26:02a giant term
26:03to be like,
26:04I know exactly why.
26:07You know,
26:07there's like the element
26:08of you can live vicariously
26:09and you can feel safe.
26:11Like with women,
26:12this is just one opinion
26:14that I had never even
26:15considered or thought of
26:17that I saw that
26:18I think you're alluding to,
26:19which is,
26:19if you are female
26:21and you are,
26:25you are taken
26:26out of the equation,
26:28there's,
26:29and you're,
26:29there's a spectatorship
26:31to that.
26:32There's like,
26:33there's a certain amount
26:34of separation
26:34that allows for safety,
26:37you know,
26:37like especially women
26:39historically being
26:40put into a box
26:41in a certain way,
26:41especially when it comes
26:42to sex and pleasure.
26:44It feels like a nice
26:44separation to see
26:46sexuality and romance
26:48be lived out
26:49without
26:50the female dynamic
26:51being involved.
26:52Yeah,
26:53I heard,
26:53I heard someone online
26:54say,
26:54a woman say that like
26:55when you see like
26:56a hetero
26:58couple,
26:59you know,
27:00you default
27:00to like relating
27:02with or forced
27:03to sort of relate
27:04with the woman character
27:05and then that comes
27:06with a lot of restriction
27:07and too
27:07and like imagination
27:08and a lot of writers,
27:10you know,
27:10are writing very conventionally
27:12which means a lot
27:13of outdated tropes,
27:15old archetypes
27:16and I think,
27:17you know,
27:18with getting to watch
27:19two men,
27:20it's like they can kind
27:20of relate with this person
27:21and one moment
27:22they're empathetic
27:22to this person,
27:23they're not forced
27:24into a box of here,
27:25this is your person
27:26to relate with.
27:27At the end of the day
27:28though,
27:28we're both men,
27:30I have no idea
27:31what it's like
27:31to be a woman.
27:33Yeah.
27:34And so,
27:34y'all let us know.
27:35Yeah.
27:36Y'all tell us.
27:37I think me,
27:39because I would just be,
27:40I'd be drinking,
27:42I'd be somewhere,
27:44I'd be like under a table,
27:45Yeah.
27:46Asleep,
27:47naked,
27:47But I will say,
27:49you're really freaking athletic
27:51and you're really strong
27:52and you know how to fight
27:54so if it came down
27:55to like a wrestling match
27:56between you
27:57and freaking Freddy Krueger,
27:59I think you're taking
28:00the cake,
28:01my boy.

30:05Don't make me nervous
30:06on Twitter.
30:06We're going to react
30:07to some tweets.
30:08You don't scare me.
30:09Connor's story.
30:10You need to stop.
30:11Your face too smiley.
30:12Your ass too fat.
30:14Juicy.
30:14Your line delivery too good.
30:16They'll kill you.
30:16You really,
30:17I mean, you ended up on a...
30:18Line delivery too good?
30:19Yeah, you,
30:20I'm cool with that.
30:21I feel good.
30:23I, I,
30:24whenever we read tweets,
30:25I don't know if I'm supposed
30:26to like thank you
30:27or if I'm supposed to like
30:30genuinely be like,
30:31whoa.
30:32I guess all of it,
30:33kind of.
30:34Hudson Williams'
30:35back dimples.
30:37That's it.
30:38That's the tweet.
30:39Oh.
30:40I didn't realize I had
30:41these little back dimples,
30:43but then I,
30:43I saw the receipts
30:45and I saw my
30:47dimpled cheek
30:48back thing
30:49and, uh...
30:50We were all singing it.
30:51Yeah.
30:52I was,
30:52I was singing it.
30:53Damn.
30:54For real.
30:55I love whatever is wrong
30:56with y'all.
30:59My Cynthia and Ariana.
31:04Fine.
31:05I'm invested in heated rivalry.
31:06Not because of their giant,
31:08bouncy blub blub blubs,
31:09but because it's a true yearner.
31:12I'm a sucker for a good romance.
31:14The yearning is,
31:15is the thing.
31:16I think that's,
31:17that's probably the sexiest part
31:18for people, honestly.
31:19You want to know how we got
31:20these bodies?
31:20If you yearn enough,
31:22your ass gets fat.
31:23Despite all the memes,
31:25I have enjoyed people seeing
31:26that physical intimacy
31:28isn't just spice
31:29on top of the romance,
31:30but a vehicle to explore
31:31relationship dynamics
31:32and character
31:33and also physical
31:35and emotional intimacy
31:36are different
31:36but connected things.
31:38Jacob talks about this
31:39and that was one
31:39of the first things
31:40I think he brought to us
31:44to try and explain his vision,
31:46which was, you know,
31:47when you read the scripts,
31:48when you read the pages,
31:49it can sound very sexy
31:50but to know that the sex
31:53really is just the foundation
31:55of their relationship
31:56and how they connect.
31:58Yeah, I think that is,
31:59I think that,
32:00I think that's kind of,
32:01you know.
32:02For the first years
32:03of their life,
32:03that's how they communicate.
32:05That's where their
32:05relationship builds
32:06and, you know.
32:07That's not usually
32:07how sex is used
32:09in media.
32:10Yeah.
32:11Meteor.
32:12I need Hudson Williams
32:14to know that so many people
32:15imagine, draw, write,
32:16and read about him
32:17getting pregnant,
32:19including me.
32:21Is that crazy?
32:22Oh, he knows
32:22and even comments on it.

32:28I was like,
32:29whatever floats your boat,
32:31you know.
32:32Yeah, I mean,
32:33I think that's like,
32:34I think that's in the
32:35deep fanfic side.
32:36Yeah.
32:37I don't understand it,
32:39but I'm like,
32:40you know what,
