00:00What about Soulja Boy?
00:01Soulja Boy who?
00:02Yeah, like that's who I wanted to be, the war.
00:06You're a dick around my neck.
00:08So to the fans, you will get a final, you know, meeting of the, we'll call it meeting of the
00:16minds.
00:16Guys, great to see you, although kind of sad, bittersweet at the same time that it's kind of coming to
00:21an end.
00:22How are you feeling?
00:24It's starting to feel real.
00:26Yeah.
00:26You know, up until now, it felt just like a normal hiatus period between, you know, when we wrap and
00:33when we start the next one.
00:34Right.
00:35Now, every dinner, Kripke gives a speech and they're feeling more and more like goodbyes.
00:43So, yeah, it's starting to feel like we're nearing the end.
00:47Yeah.
00:47I mean, I'm in a bit of a different situation.
00:50You know, these guys graciously invited me into their home and let me kind of make camp in the guest
00:56room.
00:56So, uh, and tear the house up and then just tore the house up.
01:01But, but what, you know, what these guys have built, uh, I now get to kind of use that as,
01:06as a launching point for the prequel, which is, which we just finished filming.
01:11And so, um, even though the, the boys' story is coming to an end, uh, it's, you know, with, with
01:18great honor, I, I, I feel that I kind of get to carry the torch a bit and, and keep
01:22the, uh, keep the world alive.
01:24So, yeah, it's a bit of a different feeling for me than these guys, but, um, I gotta be honest,
01:30I'm just such a fan of, of the show and what these guys do.
01:33And, uh, thrilled to just be a, uh, even the small part of it that I am.
01:37I feel like today's just gonna be a whole big love-in.
01:39I love it.
01:40Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:41Listen, we're just as appreciative because I get so many Supernatural fans in my comments and in person, like, it's
01:51just crazy about, you know, his involvement in the show, your other co-stars.
01:56Yep.
01:56So, it's, it's symbiotic.
01:58Yeah.
01:58You know, they definitely helped us and hopefully, now you have your original fans and the boys' fans to, like.
02:05Oh, yeah, that Supernatural fan base is there forever.
02:09Oh, for sure.
02:10And it's there forever.
02:12Tell me how, actually, what is the craziest thing that you had to film for season five?
02:19Did you get on set one day and you were like, oh, my God, like, this is mental?
02:22There's several.
02:23If I sit and think about it, I could probably give you a laundry list of them, but I'll give
02:27you one.
02:27And it wasn't just what I was doing on set.
02:30It was, it was kind of the lead up to it.
02:31I had to, I was doing another show in LA at the same time these guys were filming five.
02:37And so, they were trying to work the schedule to where I could, I could skip out and, and, and
02:41go shoot a few days.
02:44And I went home one, one of these times and I was on the East Coast.
02:49All the flights got canceled to get to Toronto.
02:52And so, it was a snowstorm, horrible snowstorm.
02:56And I was like, I was like, what?
02:57Okay, I'm driving.
02:58And so, I drew, drove through the Catskills in a blizzard at night to get to Toronto.
03:02I did not know you did that.
03:03Oh, dude.
03:04I was sideways.
03:05Wow.
03:06I was looking around going like, okay, is there any, like, life that I could, like, in case I get,
03:11I was dropping pens to my wife to make sure that I got there.
03:14I get to, I make it, everything's okay.
03:17And the next day, I sit in several hours of prosthetics.
03:21And then they didn't even see me.
03:23Oh, no.
03:25No.
03:26So, it's just, without giving away too much, I won't tell you what the prosthetics were.
03:30But I, I, I was, uh, yeah, I, I was like, well, that was pointless.
03:36But I did send a picture to Kripke of, of how I looked.
03:40And I was like, the s*** did I do for you, man.
03:42Right?
03:43Yep.
03:43Post it online when this comes out.
03:45So, at least, then the world's seen it.
03:47There you go.
03:47Do that.
03:48So, you can see it.
03:49I will.
03:49How about for you, Daz?
03:50For me, it was, uh, very, very, it starts, uh, in episode one.
03:56Yeah.
03:57Um, you know, in, in season three, uh, I was introduced to the next three seasons of my
04:05arch nemesis.
04:07Yeah.
04:07Who, I was very proud that Jensen was like, what I thought was going to be my arch nemesis.
04:14I was like, yes, you know, Jensen Ackles, Soulja Boy versus Mother's Milk.
04:18Like, this big feud I had in my head, and then all of a sudden, I get choked out by
04:25this 12 foot long penis.
04:28Eric Kripke laughs, and now that becomes my next, my arch nemesis versus season.
04:33I'm like, well, what about Soulja Boy?
04:34Soulja Boy who?
04:35Yeah.
04:36Like, that's who I wanted to be, the war with.
04:39You're a dick around my neck.
04:41So, to the fans, uh, you will get a final, you know, meeting of the, we'll call it meeting
04:49of the minds, uh, between M.M. and Love Sauce.
04:53Listen, doesn't everyone want that to be their arch nemesis?
04:57Uh, no, no, no, no.
04:58No, I'm going to just say no.
05:01Thank you so much.
05:01On the record, I'm saying no thank you.
05:02Not many people in their careers get to say that they've had that, though, so that makes
05:06you very unique.
05:07You know, it's funny.
05:08And you'll never get it again.
05:09It's funny.
05:09It wasn't on your bucket list, though, was it?
05:11I thought that I was going to get memed to death.
05:13Oh.
05:14And it was, they haven't, though.
05:15They haven't.
05:15It was Ant.
05:16Ant's faces took over the meme wars.
05:19So, he saved me.
05:20Yeah.
05:20Yeah, I owe Ant a lot.
05:22Yeah, well, good.
05:22Ant, who plays Homelander.
05:24Well, we've enjoyed seeing it.
05:26All of it.
05:27Everything.
05:28I'm glad you did.
05:29I've enjoyed this show so much, though.
05:30I'm so glad that it continues, at least, with Wot, Wot, Wot, Wot, Wot, Wot, Wot,
05:35and, jeez, I can't get my pronunciation out.
05:37They're going to change that name.
05:38Yeah.
05:39They're going to have to change it now.
05:41Right, because I can't say it.
05:42If I can't say it, jeez.
05:44No, I'm looking forward to that.
05:45But thank you for the boys.
05:47Because it's just been wonderful.
05:49Thanks, guys.
05:49Thank you so much.
05:50It was a pleasure.
05:51Enjoy the rest of your time.
