00:28Je vous...
00:29Charlotte Guidi.
00:31Oh, full name.
00:32Full government name.
00:33What made you want to become an actress?
00:36Ooh.
00:38God, that's a good one.
00:39Thank you.
00:40I didn't come up with it.
00:41That's a good one.
00:43I was a ballet dancer, actually, primarily.
00:46I started dancing, I think you know this, when I was two and kept doing it.
00:50Except I really hated the fact that you weren't allowed to talk and you weren't really allowed
00:53to, like, express yourself creatively in a very structured ballet setting.
00:57God forbid someone put a lid on.
00:58God forbid a girl not be allowed to speak her mind.
01:02Oh, goodness.
01:02Um, also the undiagnosed, at the time, ADHD was probably, like, pushing on the edge there.
01:08Yeah, but we knew.
01:08Yeah, we knew.
01:09One of my dance teachers actually pulled my mom aside during, like, no cracker season
01:12and was like, hey, she's really good, but I think she needs an outlet, and this is not
01:17that outlet.
01:18Maybe try theater.
01:19And so my mom was like, that's a great idea.
01:20So at the age of eight, I did my first theater show, actually, through my church.
01:24Someone who watched that was developing a pilot for a TV show and asked me if I would want
01:30to be in it.
01:31And I said, absolutely, I would.
01:34Please, mom, let me do this.
01:36And she's like, okay, I guess.
01:37And they, my mom always says, like, we saw the look on your face your first day on set.
01:41And we just knew, like, we lost her.
01:42She's going to be an actor.
01:43And she was right.
01:45Here I am.
01:45Imagine if your ballet teacher had been like, your outlet should be engineering.
01:50Oh, God.
01:51You should be a mathematical.
01:53And if no one would have looked at me and been like, that kid.
01:55She should be a neurosurgeon.
01:56That kid will be a great brain surgeon.
01:58She should absolutely just give her a scalpel.
02:02You can give me brain surgery.
02:03Oh.
02:03I trust you for that.
02:04Stop it.
02:05We'd probably end up more like a lobotomy, but, like, thank you for trusting you with
02:07your life.
02:08Maybe I trust you with that, too.
02:10Can you, reciprocal lobotomy.
02:13I think that's the only way to go.
02:15Oh, goodness gracious.
02:16Do you have any irrational fears?
02:18Oh, like, space stuff freaks me out.
02:20I still can't watch the movie Alien.
02:22I saw it when I was too young and the, like, alien popping out of the chest.
02:25I, like, saw that.
02:27And I was like, nope, I'm out.
02:28I had bad dreams for three months.
02:31Cannot watch it now.
02:32I haven't seen anything in the Alien series.
02:34I've heard it's good.
02:35I cannot watch it.
02:37Space kind of freaks me out, as does the deep ocean.
02:40Do you believe in the moon landing?
02:42I have to ask.
02:48It's not that I don't believe in the moon landing.
02:51Oh, my gosh.
02:52It is you.
02:53It's not that I don't believe in the moon.
02:55Really?
02:56Because that sounds...
02:56And I do believe that Artemis...
02:58I believe in the Artemis...
02:59The one that's just...
03:01Yes.
03:01With the girl in the cool...
03:02Space station.
03:03I love astronauts.
03:04They're so cool.
03:05Now...
03:07Why haven't we been to the moon since?
03:10There's no wind on the moon.
03:12There's no way to check if we...
03:14There would still be footprints.
03:15If we had landed on the moon...
03:18If we had landed on the moon, there would still be footprints because there's no wind on the moon.
03:22Why is the flag billowing?
03:24There's no wind on the moon.
03:26There shouldn't be shadows like that on the moon.
03:28I'm just saying...
03:29I'm not saying I don't believe in it.
03:30I'm just saying there is some reason for there to be skepticism.
03:34And no other country has gone to the moon since.
03:36It was in the middle of the Cold War and the space race where everyone was trying to get to
03:41the moon at the same time.
03:42And why was America the only one who could do it?
03:44Have you seen Hidden Figures?
03:46Yes, I've seen them.
03:46Those women were the reason why America was the only one who could do it.
03:50Again, I'm not saying...
03:53I'm saying I am only 85% sure it happened.
04:01Okay.
04:02Yes.
04:02People are going to get on me for this.
04:04No, it's okay.
04:05You're not like you're out here saying the earth is flat.
04:07Well, that's true.
04:10All right, everyone.
04:12No, but my whole family over the holidays found out that I was only 85% to 90% sure
04:19that the moon landing was fake.
04:20And somehow they skewed it to say that I thought the moon was fake.
04:25I think the moon is real.
04:27I know the moon is real.
04:29I'll go as far as to say that.
04:32Why haven't we been to the moon since?
04:35And also, there was a lot of stuff that the CIA and the government was hiding at that point.
04:41There's always a lot of stuff that the government and the CIA is hiding.
04:44Like the aliens.
04:46Yeah.
04:47That are coming for you.
04:48And I know we all liked John F. Kennedy because he was handsome.
04:52Handsome people can get away with a lot.
04:54I know they can.
04:56Was Kennedy even the president during that?
04:58I don't know.
05:00Yeah.
05:01Lyndon B. Johnson.
05:02I look, I'm really good at ancient history.
05:05You ask me about anything post the fall of Rome and I'm confused.
05:09Was that even the question?
05:11What are we talking about?
05:12The question?
05:13Any irrationality.
05:17What are you terrible at?
05:19Oh, God.
05:20So many things.
05:22Math.
05:22Nothing.
05:23She's not terrible at anything.
05:24Stop.
05:25That's a lie.
05:27Spelling.
05:27I'm dyslexic.
05:28Ooh, true.
05:28Fun fact, I cannot spell.
05:30Sometimes I like accidentally.
05:33Nope, we're not.
05:34It's going to be fine.
05:35We're not going to embarrass myself.
05:36You make a really great audition reader.
05:38I thank you.
05:39For someone who can't read.
05:41Thank you so much.
05:42There are definitely moments where like I have to read the sides twice before I speak them out loud a
05:46little bit.
05:46Because I'm like, let's just make sure I'm.
05:48I was trying to read my own lines for myself the other day and I was just.
05:52I had to retake it like four times because I was like.
05:54And that's accidentally not the.
05:57That's.
05:59Accident.
05:59No, that's not.
06:00Okay.
06:01We're moving on.
06:02Bad at calculating my mileage and doing my taxes.
06:04We did our taxes together this year because it's the only way we were going to lock in.
06:08And it took us.
06:09We did it on St. Patrick's Day.
06:11Why did we do St.
06:13Everyone else is like drinking and partying.
06:15And Tessa and I were like.
06:16What were we going to do?
06:17Taxes.
06:19Drink and party?
06:19No.
06:20No, no, no.
06:20We're responsible mature adults.
06:22We did our taxes.
06:24Adults.
06:24And it took us six hours.
06:27The longest I think Tessa and I have ever sat in silence.
06:29Mm-hmm.
06:30Mm-hmm.
06:31We locked in.
06:32We locked in.
06:33I'm sorry.
06:33That was the lock in of the century.
06:35Mm-hmm.
06:35But yeah, I'm bad at taxes.
06:37What would you say you're really good at?
06:38Oh, wow.
06:40Wow.
06:41Okay.
06:45Well, this feels like the stacking of that really feels like.
06:50Intentional.
06:51Intentional.
06:53What am I good at?
06:55Acting.
06:56Yeah.
06:57Yeah, we can say that.
06:58It's subjective.
06:59I'm good at coming up with ideas.
07:01I come up with lots of ideas every day.
07:03All different types of ideas.
07:04Because I feel like in another life, I'm like a consultant for like a big time firm.
07:11Yes, she is.
07:12She, oh, yeah.
07:14I don't know what the firm does, but I do consult them.
07:16Mm-hmm.
07:17And I don't need to know.
07:18All I need to do is.
07:20Right.
07:21So I consult for them.
07:22Yes.
07:22There we go.
07:23There we go.
07:23I'd say I'm pretty good at singing.
07:25I can sing.
07:26You, yes.
07:27Karaoke nights.
07:28Yeah.
07:29Yeah.
07:30But I did have to get a degree for that.
07:33I didn't have to get a degree for that.
07:34But you did.
07:35But I did.
07:35I did.
07:36She's got her degree.
07:38And I am good at yapping.
07:41Oh, yeah.
07:42I can burn time like nobody's business.
07:45Hell yeah.
07:46I can, you know.
07:47You're a conversationalist.
07:49Yes, I am.
07:50Yeah.
07:50Yes, I am.
07:51A dead horse.
07:52I'll beat it.
07:53And you know what?
07:54I'll hand you the whip.
07:55Beat that dead horse, girl.
07:56I'll beat it.
07:57The horse has been dead for years.
07:59Oh, yeah.
07:59But you know what we're going to do?
08:00Beat it.
08:01How did you get into verticals?
08:05You.
08:06You got me into verticals.
08:09Let me tell you a story.
08:12Barney's Beanery.
08:12Exactly.
08:13Barney's Beanery.
08:14Barney's Beanery in West Hollywood.
08:18Over a plate of carne asana fries.
08:20Yes.
08:21And I think I was drinking a vodka Red Bull.
08:24What were you drinking?
08:25Not a vodka Red Bull.
08:26Not a vodka Red Bull.
08:28Not a vodka Red Bull.
08:29Something with tequila.
08:30Yeah, I think it was, I was going to say vodka soda, but it was.
08:32Definitely was not a tequila Red Bull because that's gross.
08:36That's terrifying.
08:39That's scary.
08:40But yeah, so we had Barney's Beanery.
08:42And I was still in school at the time.
08:45And you were telling me about how you were acting and all the amazing shows that you were
08:50on and all the fun you were having acting out here in these things called verticals.
08:53And you're like, yeah, they're like, kind of like soap operas.
08:56And you were kind of explaining it to me.
08:57And I was like, this is crazy.
09:00And you were like, yeah, but I think you should get into them.
09:02And I thought about it and started auditioning.
09:06And next thing I know, I'm doing verticals.
09:09And it's all, we owe it all to Test Intersteam because I would never have, well, not maybe
09:15never, but I would never have known about them at that time or gotten in so early or
09:19discovered how much fun they were quite so, quite so quickly.
09:24And I know that when I booked my first one, I didn't tell you because I didn't, you were
09:28on set too.
09:29And I wanted to tell you in person.
09:30And I'd just gotten back from like Christmas or something.
09:34And I was like, and then you stopped my location.
09:36You found it anyway.
09:37You're like, hey, what are you doing out in the middle of nowhere?
09:39Are you on set?
09:41And I was like, I am.
09:42But I wanted to tell her in person.
09:43I'm such a, I'm such a heinous location stalker.
09:46No, I loved it.
09:47Because I was on set and I was like, we had plans to see each other on like my day,
09:51like
09:51in two days or something like that.
09:53And I was like, I'm just going to tell her in person.
09:54Like she's going to be so excited.
09:56And then I get the text.
09:58Why are you in Woodland Hills?
10:00Are you on set?
10:01I was like, she was right.
10:03So I had to confess.
10:04But yeah, that's how I got into verticals.
10:06Okay.
10:06Big question.
10:07Are you ready?
10:09Big question.
10:09Serious.
10:10Super serious.
10:12If it's about the moon landing, I swear.
10:15How did you know?
10:16No.
10:17Um, she, EO, Alpha Queen or Reborn Revenge and why?
10:21Um.
10:23Okay.
10:23I have to confess.
10:24I've only done one werewolf one.
10:27So if we're playing Kiss, Marry, Kill it.
10:30Yeah.
10:31Kiss, Marry, Kill it.
10:31Kiss, Marry, Kill it.
10:32I'm Kiss, Marry, Killing it.
10:33I'm killing Alpha Queen.
10:34I'm sorry, Alpha Queen.
10:35But I've only done one werewolf one.
10:37And I, I.
10:38This is the one with Cayman.
10:40Yeah.
10:40The one that I did with Cayman.
10:41The really atrocious beard.
10:43Yes.
10:44That's all I remember about it.
10:45Looking, looking into someone's eyes and saying, I'm just a wolfless Omega.
10:54Even if she is the, the Lycan Queen, she probably doesn't know it at the beginning.
10:58Did you have to howl in this one?
11:00No.
11:00Oh God.
11:01I had to growl once though.
11:03Oh, give us, give us your best growl right here.
11:06And that's why I can't do it because I, I just, I'll bark at you, do it.
11:11I feel like that you want to do.
11:14I always like to bark at you, baby girl.
11:17Um, so yeah, we're killing that one.
11:20Okay.
11:21Which one are you kissing and which one are you marrying?
11:23Uh, I guess I'm kissing, I'll kiss Reborn, Revenge, and then I'm marrying She-E-O.
11:28Dude, I love a She-E-O.
11:30Girl boss, Gaslight, Gate Key.
11:33Girl boss, Gaslight.
11:35Gate Key, girl boss, Gaslight, Gate Key, girl.
11:38Okay.
11:39Continue.
11:39Um, I love a She-E-O.
11:41I, I love, um, a woman in charge.
11:44I love when, I love the woman being the breadwinner.
11:47Yeah.
11:47I love the ones that I've gotten to do where it's like a sad little man and the woman comes
11:51in and she's like, I'll take care of you.
11:53And I get a lot of DMs that are, that are men, men, like being like, that's my dream woman.
11:59And I'm like, I'll bet she is.
12:01Yeah.
12:01I too would like a baddie with a paycheck to come give me a billion dollars and marry
12:05me.
12:06That's actually all my list of like what I want in a relationship.
12:09That's number one.
12:10It's literally just a baddie with a paycheck to come in and marry me.
12:12It's word for word.
12:15So, but like at the same time, I'm like, dream life too.
12:19Um, what is your favorite thing about each other?
12:22It's a double.
12:23We both get to answer the question.
12:26Favorite thing about Tess.
12:28Oh, it's hard to just narrow it down to just one.
12:31I think, I think it's the way you show up for the people you love.
12:37You love so very deeply and you are so very loyal and hilarious and fine, kind and funny.
12:44But like, I really appreciate our friendship because you're not afraid to like gently correct
12:50me or not so gently at times and just be like, no, that's dumb.
12:54That's stupid.
12:55Why would you think that?
12:55And I'm like, you're right.
12:56That was dumb.
12:57And that was stupid.
12:57And I'm sorry.
12:58And you're like, you don't be sorry.
12:59Just don't do it again.
13:00But it's like, everyone needs a friend that feels more like a sister and someone who you
13:06can just show up as authentically as yourself as you possibly can be.
13:09And you allow me to do that.
13:11And I feel like whenever we're together, we just have the absolute best time.
13:17We're like creating the type of memories that I call dad lore.
13:20Like we're out here creating dad lore.
13:22And one day we'll get to tell our kids all these fun stories.
13:24And I'm like, oh yeah, you're aunt Tess.
13:26If we have kids.
13:27Yeah.
13:27We may end up getting, we have this plan that if we don't get married in a certain
13:30number of years, we marry each other and we move to Italy and get a villa, but also New
13:35York, Italy, villa, also New York, also London, also London.
13:39Those are our plans.
13:39Yeah.
13:39We're going to be, we're going to be super rich.
13:41We're going to be really rich and have a lot of homes and all of our favorite places.
13:44And we're going to have like a, is it called like a, what kind of marriage would it
13:49be?
13:49Just platonic, but a life partnership.
13:52Yes.
13:52Perhaps like roommate for forever.
13:54That's our plan.
13:56Anyway.
13:56Yeah.
13:56My favorite things about Lottie Gwini, there's so many, I do appreciate how I can be my just
14:05like blood self.
14:06When you're not ever someone to like get offended, you always know that it's out of love.
14:11You're so easy to be friends with.
14:14Like, I just can't imagine not wanting to be friends with you.
14:18Don't make me cry.
14:20Like, it's true.
14:21It's every time I'm like, there's no, there's no part of me that's ever second guessing our
14:26friendship or, or wondering if it's going to last.
14:31It just feels kind of like second nature.
14:34Don't make me cry right now with the hat, bro.
14:37Um, and I feel like you're, you're just so similarly to what you said about me.
14:43I'm not copying you.
14:44It's just true.
14:44Um, you are so there for, for the people you love and for me.
14:49And I just feel like at the drop of a hat, you would do anything.
14:55I could, I would not have to ask you to hide a body because I could probably ask you to
15:00do the murder.
15:01You would.
15:02I think that is a nice thing.
15:04Like, yeah, of course, of course I'm going to your door if I have to hide a body.
15:09But honestly, I feel like I'm calling you beforehand and I'm mentioning how maybe I'm
15:14thinking about killing this person and you're like, I'll do it.
15:18Um, where, when and where?
15:19Yeah.
15:20So you, you are just.
15:21We should split up the purchases of the items on different credit cards so you can't track
15:23them all back to the same time or place.
15:25Anyway, what?
15:26Yeah.
15:27Like you already got it planned out.
15:28Honestly, I get home and the person's already dead.
15:31And I'm like, so where do we want them?
15:32Who?
15:33Like, how did you know?
15:34Cause yeah, you've got this.
15:36You're just, you're, you're such a good friend.
15:40I don't even know how to put it any other way.
15:43I like want to hug you.
15:44We can hug.
15:46We hug.
15:47Sorry.
15:47Thank you.
15:50Oh, I love you.
15:52I love you so much.
15:53Oh, that was a good one.
15:54That was a good question.
15:56I teared up a little bit.
15:57Then I was like, I'm not wearing waterproof mascara and I can't, I can't do this.
16:00You're doing his last looks.
16:02Last looks.
16:02That was.
16:03What sorority was I a member of back in college?
16:11I'm ready.
16:12Ready?
16:12Three, two, one.
16:14Yes.
16:15I was about to write anchor down too, but I didn't have time.
16:17DG.
16:17She got it right.
16:19Delta gamma.
16:20Anchor down.
16:21I was not a DG.
16:22Anchor down.
16:23That's what I'm saying.
16:24No one.
16:25No one.
16:25You were in theta.
16:26For a year.
16:27For a year.
16:28I was in DG for two.
16:30I rushed late.
16:31I didn't drop.
16:32I didn't drop.
16:33I went inactive.
16:34The sorority police are going to come after me now.
16:37What is my zodiac sign?
16:40I can't spell it.
16:41I'm dyslexic.
16:44I hope something crazy comes out.
16:47Three, two, one.
16:49You spelled it right.
16:50Well, see, I didn't know that.
16:54Got it.
16:55Those are warmups.
16:56Those are warmups.
16:57Those are too easy.
16:57It's about to get harder.
16:58You ready?
16:58What is my go-to dance move?
17:04My handwriting is nutritious.
17:06My mom is going to yell at me so much.
17:07What did you write?
17:08Okay, wait.
17:09Three, two, one.
17:10She'd just be dancing however I wrote all of them.
17:13Or a kick.
17:15I feel like you'd just be moving your body.
17:17I do.
17:17What can I say?
17:18I just love to do a little.
17:18Sometimes there's a little roll in there.
17:20A little jig.
17:21Yeah.
17:21Oh, yeah.
17:21I do love a roll.
17:22I love a jig.
17:23I do a lot of kicking.
17:24A lot of ballet.
17:25Like, high kicks.
17:27God forbid she gets an elevated surface.
17:29Oh, no.
17:29And all of a sudden, like, she should be a paid go-go dancer.
17:32You can't trust me with an elevated surface.
17:34I would give you a kick right here and right now, but I'm worried it would just get too
17:38big for all of us.
17:39Kick someone in the face.
17:39No, literally.
17:40What's my favorite bagel?
17:43Oh, this is a hard one, actually.
17:45Crab.
17:46Hmm.
17:46It's really the only one I order, so somebody doesn't watch my vlogs.
17:50I've been with you for so many of the bagel stops, too, and I just...
17:55When I...
17:55In London, like, what did I order?
17:58It always had locks on it.
18:00Yeah, but what was...
18:01And cream cheese.
18:02Yeah.
18:05That's not the title.
18:07Well, I...
18:09Jewish?
18:14It's made out of bread.
18:16It's got, like, a...
18:17A hole in it.
18:18Yes.
18:18Okay.
18:18Three, two, one.
18:20Yeah.
18:20I got it.
18:21Okay, I got it.
18:21I did get it.
18:22It's an everything bagel.
18:25I was like, this would be really embarrassing if I didn't know, like, the bagel queen's bagel
18:28order, and I claimed it to be her best friend.
18:30Like, goodness gracious.
18:31We're really making each other sweat.
18:32Okay, ready?
18:33This is a real good one.
18:34What jobs did I work before becoming a vertical star?
18:37Hold on.
18:38It's a list.
18:39I forgot I got to write it, too.
18:40How many am I supposed to get?
18:42Do I have to get all of them?
18:43No, just give me, like, a solid three.
18:45Yeah.
18:46Okay, ready?
18:48Bonus.
18:49Three, two, one.
18:50Dance Teacher, Server, Cafe, Bakery, That Water Company.
18:53Yeah.
18:54Oh, my God.
18:55I got the water filter.
18:56Yeah.
18:57She got the water filter girl.
18:59You got with Server.
19:00Yeah.
19:01I think the only one I missed was Pure Bar.
19:03I couldn't remember.
19:03I was like, I...
19:05That was a throwaway.
19:07That was a throwaway.
19:07I worked at Pure Bar one day a week.
19:09Yeah.
19:09On Tuesday nights.
19:11Company Redacted.
19:12Yeah.
19:12Oh, yeah.
19:13Nothing against the company.
19:14It's just, it was one day a week, and you checked people in.
19:17Yeah.
19:17No.
19:18It was not.
19:20But the other one, you got it.
19:21Yay.
19:22Yeah, I did.
19:23That was good.
19:25Yeah, we complain about our jobs.
19:28But what is the craziest cameo request I've ever received?
19:32Oh, you've gotten so many.
19:34I've gotten a lot of weird ones.
19:36I usually don't, I don't complete the, like, weirdest ones, but...
19:40Huh.
19:42I'm truly puzzled.
19:46Like...
19:47No cheating.
19:48Okay.
19:49I don't even know if I told you about this one, because it came on when I was, like,
19:52I think on my last set, and I read it, and I was like, guys, is this, like, fetish content
19:57low-key?
19:58I feel like you, I feel like I heard, ugh.
20:01No, I don't know.
20:01I don't know what it is.
20:02Okay.
20:03Well, she pulled a blank, but someone asked me, oh, birthday wrap.
20:09No, that one's not weird.
20:10No, that one's not weird.
20:10That's for my friends.
20:11Jeez.
20:12I thought it was funny.
20:13I didn't think it was weird.
20:14I thought it was funny, though.
20:15Um, someone asked me for a cameo where I pretended I was on the phone with them, and I was
20:20telling
20:21them I was pregnant, but they wanted me to do it in, like, a, in, they said, a funny, sarcastic
20:27way.
20:29Which, I'm like, okay, so unfortunate, so my cameos are $22.
20:34Right.
20:35And that's not enough money to write a skit.
20:39So, uh.
20:40That's not enough money if I'm writing you a whole scene.
20:45Oh, baby.
20:46Okay, your turn.
20:46That's when I just, like, eat gluten, so then I get, like, coffee, and I'm like, I'm pregnant.
20:51Wow.
20:51I poison myself for a cameo.
20:53Yeah.
20:55Who did I play in the London Academy rendition of Romeo and Juliet?
21:00Easy.
21:03Okay.
21:04I'm locked in.
21:05Ready?
21:06Three, two, one.
21:10You were Juliet in one scene, right?
21:11I forgot about that.
21:12Yeah, I was.
21:13Yeah.
21:13Yeah, I was Tybalt.
21:14Yeah.
21:15You were Benvolio, though.
21:17I was Benvolio, yeah.
21:18Secretly, Benvolio and Tybalt were lovers.
21:20Yeah, so that was the canon that we played.
21:22Spirit might not have told you that.
21:24She didn't tell you, but Tess and Lottie definitely did.
21:28We had so much tension in our fight scene.
21:31Okay, favorite memory with each other from the London Academy of musical and dramatic arts.
21:36Oh.
21:40Oh, this is so bad.
21:42Okay.
21:43Wait.
21:44Wait.
21:45Wait.
21:46Are you ready?
21:47I'm going to get your hands on the floor.
21:48Three, two, one.
21:52Giving class to happy hour daydreams.
21:57I said, give me class due to your concussion plus anything at O'Neal's.
22:01O'Neal's mentioned.
22:02O'Neal's mentioned.
22:03O'Neal's on Soho Street.
22:04O'Neal's mentioned by...
22:05O'Neal's Soho, yeah.
22:06We went back as adults.
22:08Oh, gosh.
22:08Like, because when we were there, we were, like, college age.
22:11Yeah.
22:12When we went back this past year and looking around at all of the 20-year-olds.
22:17Not even...
22:18No, those were 18-year-olds.
22:19Those were, like, 18-year-olds.
22:21Yeah, maybe 20.
22:22Yeah, they were all study abroad, and we were, like, oh.
22:24I suddenly felt...
22:26Ancient.
22:27Yeah.
22:27Ancient.
22:27Well, I think anyone would feel old when you're, like, the only other people in the room
22:31are either 18...
22:32Who are able to legally drink in the USA.
22:35Yeah.
22:35Like, we were the only people...
22:37Yeah.
22:38I faked a concussion.
22:39Not at O'Neal's.
22:41But I faked a concussion at Lambda.
22:43To get out of classes for the day.
22:45And then I had to go fake check on her at lunch.
22:48So.
22:52You skipped a lot of my classes.
22:54I mean, you talk about something very serious.
22:56And we still showed up off-book.
22:58Yeah.
22:59We were probably the only ones.
23:00Yeah.
23:01We were off-book fast.
23:02We were, like, okay, work here is done.
23:05Done and dusted.
23:06What book am I reading right now?
23:08I don't know if you know this, because I finished that book, and then I read...
23:11Started another book, and then I finished that one, and then I won.
23:14I read two books last week, so you probably don't know this one.
23:16I don't...
23:17I don't know.
23:19I'll give you a hint.
23:20It's...
23:21You personally believe that none of the film or movie adaptations of it have ever been accurate?
23:29Yeah.
23:29Ready?
23:30There we go.
23:33I personally don't think there's ever been...
23:37This is a re-read for you, right?
23:39Yes.
23:39I'm trying to re-read all the books I read in high school that are, like, classes.
23:43How are you feeling so far?
23:44I really like it.
23:44I really love that book.
23:45I love an epistolary novel.
23:46I forgot...
23:48I don't know.
23:49I forgot how...
23:49Jonathan Harker is a lover boy, for real, for real.
23:52It's a great book.
23:53And they always do him dirty in the adaptations.
23:54They make him such, like, a pathetic little baby.
23:56But he's...
23:57He will do anything for his wife.
24:00And don't...
24:00We want that?
24:01That's, like, vertical.
24:02I was about to say, it's vertical-coded.
24:05Anyway.
24:05It's great.
24:06Dracula...
24:07Dracula...
24:08Vertical.
24:09True adaptation.
24:10No.
24:10It would be too...
24:11Make it the most...
24:12The only actor that ever exists is a vertical.
24:14It'd be a little too slow-paced, I feel like.
24:16No, we could pick it up.
24:17Yeah, we could, like, take out a lot of the stuff.
24:19We could take out all the long-winded descriptions of scenery, and it would be, like, a hundred
24:23less pages.
24:24Yeah, true.
24:24True.
24:25And, like, the psycho guy, we could definitely shorten those.
24:28The guy in the mental institution.
24:30Like, he's important, but, like, not for as much page time as they can.
24:33He could be important for, like, two vertical episodes.
24:35Does that make sense?
24:36What's my favorite musical?
24:37Oh.
24:39Wait.
24:42I will accept two answers for this.
24:45Huh.
24:48And it also changes.
24:49That's, like...
24:50It changes on a day-to-day basis.
24:52Okay.
24:54I'm just going blind here.
24:57Oh, I forgot about company.
24:59Yeah, but we both got cabaret.
25:01Okay.
25:02I love my, um, post-golden age.
25:04What can I say?
25:05Yes, you really do.
25:06And I have to have a Sondheim in there at all times.
25:09Of course.
25:10Company is great.
25:12Okay, well, is that all your questions?
25:14That was all my questions.
25:15We did it.
25:16We did it.
25:16We did pretty good.
25:17We did do pretty good.
25:18We did pretty good.
25:19Do you miss the rogue who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?
25:23I'm saying Taylor.
25:25Taylor?
25:25Rogue?
25:26The word rogue?
25:27You think she has...
25:27It's not an iambic pentameter.
25:29Sorry, I'm going to get killed.
25:31It's not an iambic pentameter.
25:34Do you miss the...
25:35Yeah, no.
25:36Do you miss the rogue...
25:37We'll say it one more time.
25:37Do you miss the rogue who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?
25:41You're saying Taylor?
25:42I guess I'll go Taylor as well.
25:43You don't have to say the same thing as me.
25:45Well, okay.
25:48Fine, I'm going Shakespeare.
25:50Because I don't know if she can say the word rogue.
25:54It's Taylor Swift.
25:56Dang it.
25:57On the island.
25:58Dang it.
25:59How can it be said I am alone when all the world is here to look at me?
26:03I feel like it could be Shakespeare.
26:04I'm going Shakespeare.
26:06But yeah, so it's Shakespeare.
26:08It is a Midsummer Night's Day.
26:10Yeah.
26:11I did do that show.
26:12And it could easily have also been Taylor Swift.
26:15It could have.
26:16Yeah.
26:16You're like, wow, she knows that?
26:18Yeah, I'm like, really?
26:19It's not like, oh, she...
26:20What happened to feminism?
26:22Well, hey.
26:23It's not that I'm shocked that she...
26:24Is it because she's blonde?
26:26What do you have against blondes?
26:28Nothing.
26:29I love blondes.
26:31Hayley, if you're out there watching this, you know I love you.
26:33Even though you're blonde.
26:36In spite of the fact.
26:38In spite of your...
26:39No, I love blondes.
26:40My best friend's blonde.
26:41My roommate's blonde.
26:43You were blonde when we met.
26:45That's true, I was.
26:46Did I hold it out against you?
26:48Maybe.
26:50Yeah, there was a few days there where I was like, best friend, blonde.
26:53Best friend, blonde.
26:54So we've learned that Lottie hates blondes.
26:57I'm getting cancelled.
26:58I knew it was coming.
27:00My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break.
27:05I think it could be Shakespeare.
27:06I'm going to go with Shakespeare too, but if that's Taylor Swift, pure poetry.
27:09I don't give her enough credit.
27:10I like that.
27:12It's Shakespeare.
27:13Yes!
27:13The end of the script.
27:15Another good one.
27:16That's a good one.
27:17And I sound like an infant, feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen.
27:23Taylor Swift.
27:23I'm going Taylor Swift as well.
27:24Definitely Taylor Swift.
27:25Ink pens weren't invented yet.
27:28But it's awesome.
27:30Historical accuracy.
27:31He would have said a quill.
27:33Now my eyes leak acid rain on the pillow where you used to lay your head.
27:36Definitely Taylor Swift.
27:37I'm just, yeah.
27:38Again, they didn't know what acid rain was in the 1600s.
27:44Or maybe they did.
27:45But they probably didn't, like, well, no, because they feel like...
27:47No, they didn't know.
27:48No.
27:48They didn't know.
27:49No.
27:50The course of true love never did run smooth.
27:52Shakespeare.
27:52Shakespeare.
27:53Shakespeare.
27:54We're so good at this.
27:55We know our Shakespeare.
27:57Can I say we're dorks?
27:59I'd meet you where the spirit meets the bone in a faith forgotten land.
28:03I like that.
28:04It might be Hamlet.
28:06But it might be Taylor Swift.
28:10It couldn't die.
28:11It might be Hamlet.
28:12I'm narrowed it down to two options.
28:13It might be Taylor Swift.
28:15I'm going to say Taylor Swift.
28:17It could also be King.
28:18I'm going to go Taylor Swift as well.
28:19There's something Swifty about it.
28:21Taylor Swift?
28:21Yes!
28:22That one was a challenge, though.
28:23Taylor, you almost had me fooled.
28:25Taylor, you almost got her.
28:26If you're watching this, Taylor.
28:28What do you mean if?
28:29Clearly she's watching this.
28:30Yeah, clearly Taylor Swift is a huge fan of Good Short.
28:33She should be.
28:34Confirm or deny.
28:35Taylor, you have to.
28:36You don't have to.
28:37You can do it under one of your secret accounts.
28:38No, Taylor, you have 24 hours.
28:40Respond.
28:41Request for comment.
28:42She's going to delete her entire Instagram.
28:44She's going to go black and it's just going to be Good Short's logo.
28:46And she comes back.
28:47The new era.
28:48New era's tour.
28:49Era of Good Short.
28:50Yeah.
28:51I bet they'd put you in a show.
28:52Yes, with Gleb!
28:55Yes!
28:56Gleb and Taylor!
28:57She's obsessed with Gleb.
28:58I am obsessed with Gleb.
29:00I am so it, guys.
29:02Oh, man.
29:04No, no, no.
29:05Stop.
29:06She's going to be blushing.
29:06Oh, my God.
29:07I'm like, am I blushing?
29:09Okay, okay.
29:12It's fine.
29:13I'm fine.
29:14She's fine.
29:15It's your turn.
29:17She's blushing.
29:17Not, like, thinking, like, what if she sees this?
29:21Guys, I swear I can be chill about this.
29:23I, like, don't care about celebrities, but Dancing with the Stars, I love that show.
29:27I am a dancer.
29:28I care about celebrities if their names are...
29:30Gleb.
29:31Body greedy.
29:32I care about celebrities if they're you.
29:34Hee hee.
29:34Okay, wait.
29:35Is it my turn or is it your turn?
29:36And would AI be obsessed with Gleb?
29:38AI might be obsessed with Gleb.
29:40Who's not obsessed with Gleb?
29:42When Shane Davis, you know him.
29:44Your co-star.
29:45I am familiar.
29:46Our co-star.
29:47It's Shane Davis.
29:48The one I did with him for Good Short, he was like, yeah, I'm talking to my good friend
29:51Gleb.
29:52And I was like, that's an interesting name.
29:56You, what's it, you know a Gleb?
29:58Does he dance perchance?
29:59And he's like, yeah.
30:00My buddy Gleb.
30:01And I was like, your buddy Gleb.
30:04Your buddy.
30:06Your friends.
30:07That's great.
30:07That's cool.
30:08Yeah.
30:08He should come to set one day.
30:09He should visit.
30:10Yeah, for fun.
30:11For fun.
30:12Like, if he felt like, what's he doing tomorrow?
30:13Does he want to come to our 5 a.m. call?
30:16You want to show up?
30:17Bring him, you know, hang out with his good friend Shane and his new friend Lottie Goody
30:20on set?
30:21Nope.
30:21Some Cupid kills with arrows, some with traps.
30:25Shakespeare.
30:26Really?
30:26Walking it in.
30:27Your buzzer.
30:31I'm gonna go, yeah.
30:33No.
30:33Yeah.
30:34No, I'm gonna go Taylor.
30:38Shakespeare.
30:38Taylor!
30:39It's iambic pentameter.
30:40You spelled the syllables.
30:42I should have.
30:43In black ink, my love may still shine bright.
30:49That is ten syllables, so that's a challenge.
30:52But I'm gonna say Taylor Swift.
30:56Taylor Swift.
30:57Taylor Swift.
30:59William Swift.
31:01My good friend William Swift.
31:03I'll say Taylor Swift.
31:08Taylor Swift.
31:10I don't think that's an answer.
31:12Um, yeah, I'm gonna say that too.
31:14Taylor Swift?
31:14Yeah.
31:15Shakespeare.
31:16Wow.
31:18You know, I went against my rule, and lo and behold.
31:21Yeah, sure did you.
31:23And if you've never come for me, I might have drowned in the melancholy.
31:26Definitely Taylor Swift.
31:27There's no way that's Shakespeare.
31:28Taylor Swift.
31:29They have a feeling.
31:30We did it.
31:32They have a feeling.
31:33So, I mean, technically, it's a song inspired by Shakespeare.
31:38So, it could have, but we both guessed Taylor Swift, so.
31:41Right, we did.
31:41It's not like we're trying to.
31:42Yeah.
31:42All that glisters is not gold.
31:46Glisters?
31:47Yeah.
31:47I think it's supposed to say glisters.
31:49Okay, I thought it was the dyslexia.
31:52It could actually.
31:55I, well, I was, the dyslexia was me thinking that maybe it was a word that I just didn't
31:58know because I can't read.
32:01Um, all that glistens is not gold.
32:04It's not gold.
32:04I'm going to go, I feel like it's both.
32:07All that glimmers is gold.
32:11Shrek's on track.
32:12Smash Mouth.
32:13Shrek's on track.
32:14Shrek's on track.
32:14Neither is from Shrek.
32:16Um, no, but all that glistens.
32:18All that glistens is not gold.
32:21I'm going to say Taylor.
32:22I'll say Shakespeare.
32:24Shakespeare.
32:26I'm bad looking.
32:26But Taylor Swift would have put that in a song.
32:28I'm throwing my note cards in the air, figuratively.
32:31Both of you have played Mothers in good short shows.
32:33Mommy.
32:34Where did you pull inspiration from?
32:36Obviously my own mom.
32:38I feel like that goes for both of us.
32:40Um, I was also a nanny for a long time.
32:44And so I feel like I have some of that motherly instinct.
32:48And I have a cat.
32:49And I love him so much.
32:51Beef.
32:51Beef.
32:52Beef stick.
32:53Um, so I feel that, that maternal love.
32:57But I feel like just like an amalgamation of all my friends.
33:01Yeah.
33:02Moms.
33:03And like all of the good maternal figures that I've had in my life.
33:07Yeah.
33:08I think any mother I know personally has ever been in a scenario where her child was kidnapped.
33:15So I don't really have a point of reference for that.
33:18Thank God for that.
33:20What about you?
33:21I'm also a mom friend.
33:23My child also got kidnapped.
33:25Um, we both had plots where our child, they didn't know that they kind of existed.
33:29And then they get kidnapped.
33:32So I knew she existed.
33:33But you didn't remember for like six years.
33:35No, no, no.
33:35I knew.
33:36But, right.
33:38I didn't know.
33:39I was injured in the brain.
33:42And staying in the brain?
33:44I was injured in the brain.
33:46Um, my own mom, obviously.
33:48I pulled inspiration from that.
33:49I had a great mom growing up.
33:51She actually homeschooled me and my sisters.
33:52You know this.
33:53Um, so spent a lot, a lot of time with us.
33:55Great mom.
33:56Um, I'm also a dance teacher to little kids.
33:59That I was.
34:00Um, and so I feel like that being around kids all the time.
34:04And I have a little sister.
34:05You just develop a little bit of like a protective instinct.
34:08Yeah.
34:09And so, yeah, I think it was just really pulling from that instinct just to like, keep the baby's babies,
34:17you know?
34:17Like, keep them innocent.
34:19It's like when you, one time Lottie, Lottie fell asleep on my shoulder in, on a night bus in London.
34:24I did do that.
34:25And I remember like holding her head and I was like,
34:27Any crazy people come and try to knife us right now?
34:30I was out cold.
34:31I have a knife in my purse.
34:32I have a knife in my purse.
34:34Yeah.
34:35Motherly instincts.
34:36Knifeing is a problem in the UK.
34:38They, they card you if you want to buy scissors.
34:41They carded me for buying a Red Bull.
34:43Do you remember that?
34:43They, fun fact, thought I was under 16 when I was, I have a youthful look.
34:48But they thought I was under 16 because the legal age to buy energy drinks in the UK is 16.
34:53And I went to buy it.
34:54And they're like, we have to see some ID.
34:56And I was like, is there alcohol in this?
34:58And they're like, no.
34:59No.
34:59What are your goals slash dreams in your career?
35:03Oh, I would say I want to win an Oscar.
35:06That's the goal.
35:07Oh yeah.
35:07Obviously I'm an actor.
35:08I want to win an Oscar.
35:09I would like to be in a show with Lottie Guidi.
35:12That is a dream of a goal of mine as well.
35:14Big, heavy on that.
35:15Heavy on that.
35:16Yeah.
35:16Hopefully that'll happen soon.
35:18I'd like to be, I'd like to be in something with you.
35:19Yes.
35:20I think that's a goal slash dream.
35:22That's a big goal slash dream of mine.
35:23It's actually been a goal slash dream of mine for a long time.
35:25I actually, I have always had the goal though, on the Oscars front to be at the 100th, which
35:31I think is in 2028.
35:33We got to, let's grind.
35:35Yeah.
35:35So I have to like, I have to start grinding now.
35:37We'll get there.
35:37Well, we can start.
35:38You've been grinding.
35:39You, I feel like work more than anyone I know.
35:41I have to, I have, I'm going to get there.
35:43I have, I really would like to be at the 100th Academy Awards because that feels big.
35:50Yeah.
35:51That would be nice.
35:51That'd be fun.
35:52That'd be cool.
35:53Let's go.
35:53Let's do it.
35:54Let's go.
35:54We should go.
35:55Why don't we just go?
35:55Let's call Taylor up.
35:57Our good friend Taylor.
35:58Our good friend Taylor Swift.
35:59And our good friend Gleb and be like, hey guys, you know the Oscars.
36:04Where do you see yourself in one year and also five years?
36:07I feel like regardless of whether or not we enter into a civic union, we should get a villa.
36:15Yes.
36:16We should have a villa in Tuscany by that point in time together.
36:19And we can have like a self-tape studio in it and we can fly back to work.
36:24But yeah.
36:25We're based in our villa.
36:27The way that this industry works, it's always so hard to say.
36:31Like I don't know where I'm going to be next month.
36:33Mm-hmm.
36:34Because things always happen so fast.
36:36And like opportunities will come all at once and then suddenly you'll go six months without
36:42hearing anything.
36:43And so it's always like you kind of have to be ready to go whichever way the wind blows.
36:48But I think that like that's awesome and really beautiful.
36:53But it's hard to have a five-year plan in those regards.
36:56Like I don't know what city I'm going to be living in.
36:58But like I love traveling.
37:00Yeah.
37:01With my best friends.
37:02With my best friends.
37:04What does it mean to be a woman in the entertainment industry, in society as a whole?
37:11That's a really good question.
37:13Well, the pay gap.
37:15Oh, we're getting into it.
37:17I just jumped right in.
37:19You know what actually increased like last week?
37:21The wage gap increased?
37:22The wage gap, yeah.
37:23That's great.
37:24Like on average.
37:27Oh, wow.
37:28It's because it's no longer women's history month.
37:29Right, right, right, right, right, right, right.
37:31That's why a man today stopped me on my run to ask me how many miles I was going.
37:35He stopped me to make me take out an air pump and say, how many miles are you going to
37:38do?
37:38Well, less now because I'm talking to you, sir.
37:42Have a good one.
37:44It's what I get.
37:44Wasted breath.
37:45It's what I get for running outside in a month that's not women's history month.
37:50In a skirt nonetheless.
37:52Yeah.
37:52I mean, I think, okay.
37:53Got it.
37:54There's so much about womanhood that is like beautiful.
37:58There's been this video circulating on TikTok.
37:59I think I sent it to you that it's like girls help strangers out.
38:03Like girls help other girls out on the street.
38:05You did send it to me.
38:06I teared up.
38:06It was really cute.
38:07Yeah, it made me cry.
38:08And I think there's like a beauty in female friendship that like men are jealous of and they can't have.
38:14No, it's for the girls.
38:16And there's this just like amazing, wonderful intimacy that exists between female friends.
38:23God, when we're like on the ground getting liquid dumped on us and crying about it and in every single
38:30scene.
38:31And then my co-star has the audacity to be like, I had to wait around for like four scenes
38:37today.
38:38God, I was bored.
38:39I'm sorry.
38:40I was sobbing.
38:41Oh, you were bored, were you?
38:42You couldn't find some way to make yourself useful?
38:44I don't know.
38:45Give me a back massage.
38:46Go get me a coffee.
38:48Make me a sandwich.
38:49Get back in the kitchen.
38:54That's what we're getting canceled for.
38:55Yeah, no, we're getting this podcast.
38:57I mean, I think there are definitely, there are things that are hard about being a woman.
39:00As you said, I think that there's a lot of expectations for us and not a lot of credit.
39:04But I think that we're given a lot to carry emotionally.
39:10I like to pick up my co-stars.
39:11So sometimes physically, we're given a lot to carry.
39:15And in this industry and in this world, I feel like women are supposed to wear a million hats.
39:20We're supposed to be a sister and a wife and a mother and a daughter.
39:23And we're supposed to be, you and I talk about like the Madonna whore complex all the time.
39:29We're supposed to be everything and nothing all at once.
39:31And those are a lot of shoes to fill and a lot of boxes to fit into.
39:34It also makes us stronger people.
39:37I agree.
39:37And I think that the beautiful thing about the women in this industry and in the vertical space specifically is
39:42you really do find other women who are kindred spirits.
39:45They've been through what you've been through.
39:47They understand it.
39:48And instead of letting it get us down, we all like rise past it and we become these really strong,
39:53passionate women.
39:54Yeah, bring like such a strength to like if you write a script, you might not see a character as
39:59strong and then it's played by you
40:00or it's played by Haley.
40:02And like you both bring like such wonderful strength to your roles.
40:08That's just an undercurrent.
40:09And I think that like all of those abilities and all of the expectations also make it so like, oh
40:15my God,
40:16the women in the vertical industry are like some of the most capable women I've ever met.
40:20Yeah.
40:20I would trust them to like get anything done.
40:24Yeah.
40:24I would trust them to save my daughter from a kidnapping.
40:26You know what I mean?
40:27Yeah.
40:27Yeah, let's do it.
40:28It takes a certain type of like super human to work nine, 12 hour days in a row running
40:38on seven hours of sleep if you're lucky, look beautiful the whole time while doing it.
40:45I got it from my eye bags.
40:46I got to get like a lower blep for whatever it's called.
40:49Yeah.
40:49Sorry, I continue.
40:51You don't need anything.
40:52You're perfect.
40:54I got to get like cry, access these really like intense emotions because verticals aren't verticals
41:00without that.
41:01Like the women are the gateway into the audience being able to be a part of the story.
41:08Yeah.
41:09And I think so many of our viewers are women.
41:11So when they get to see the strength of these mothers or these daughters or these sisters or
41:17all adjectives to describe women aside, they get to see the strength of the woman and they
41:21get to see her making her own decisions and standing up for herself and fighting for what
41:24she believes in.
41:25I think it gives women everywhere who watch these a little bit of hope that maybe they
41:29can infuse some of that in their own lives.
41:30Yeah.
41:31And I won't sugarcoat it.
41:32It's hard fucking work.
41:34Like being on set is hard work and it's not, I wouldn't trade it for anything.
41:38No.
41:41Because I think that like it, it really is like, I get to feel proud of myself for doing
41:46that.
41:47It's not easy.
41:48And I, and I, I feel so proud of my work, whether or not I'm like proud of my performance
41:52or not.
41:53I'm proud of my work.
41:55Yeah.
41:55And, and like you have such an incredible work ethic.
41:58So do you.
41:59And all of the, all of the women in this industry, I know.
42:01Yeah.
42:02Are incredible, like hard workers and are going to rule the world someday.
42:06I agree.
42:07I'm blessed to be here, but excited about everything that that entails.
42:13Yeah.
42:13Heck yeah.
42:15Strong women.
42:16Woo.
42:16Woo.
42:17Okay.
42:18Last question of mine.
42:19What would you like to see more of in the vertical entertainment industry and the entertainment
42:23industry as a whole?
42:25I mean, that is just a can of worms.
42:28Yeah.
42:29No, it really is.
42:29I would love to see more female friendship.
42:32I agree.
42:33In the vertical industry.
42:33I think so often women are pitted against each other, like on the topic of that last
42:38question.
42:39It is so sad to me that we are still at a point that most of the stories have, you
42:45know,
42:45you have your female lead and then you have your villain who's usually her sole motivation
42:51is a man.
42:52And I'm sorry, but I don't know any women whose sole motivation is a man who would go
42:58to such great lengths, who would kidnap someone.
43:00For a man?
43:01For a man who said he didn't like her.
43:03Yeah.
43:04And yes, there's the Delulu, but like still, I don't think anyone who's been delusional
43:10about a man would go as far as to kidnap his new girlfriend's child.
43:15Well, back in the days when I played villains, the motivation I always gave myself as a villain
43:19was to just be like, well, she's deeply in the closet and in love with the female lead
43:22and that's the only way I can actually justify her behavior is because she is so obsessed
43:27with this woman.
43:27Very heated rivalries.
43:29Thank you.
43:29Maybe, maybe heated rivalries, the friends came along the way.
43:33Maybe everything.
43:34What would you like to see more of?
43:36Heavy on the female friendships.
43:38I want to see more slow burn.
43:40I feel like we give too much away.
43:42I want more rom-coms.
43:44I love a rom-com.
43:45I love a slow burn.
43:46I do love an enemies to lovers.
43:48I want to see less drug drinks.
43:50Yeah, that would be nice.
43:51I don't mind the slaps, actually.
43:52I know everybody's always like, too many slaps.
43:54I want more action.
43:56Ooh, yeah.
43:56Because I want to do more.
43:58I want a sword.
43:59I want, give me back my sword.
44:01I had so much fun that one time.
44:03Jeez, more swords.
44:04I don't know.
44:05I want more historical.
44:07I feel like a Bridgerton vertical would do real well.
44:09I think so, too.
44:10Maybe I just want to wear one of those dresses.
44:12I don't know.
44:12Yeah.
44:12I mean, I did just wear a wedding dress for two weeks.
44:15I would love, and on that, I would love more cinematic universes.
44:19Like, how Bridgerton doesn't.
44:21I want more seasons of shows.
44:23I want to see, like.
44:24Well, it doesn't, like, bring back the same main couple, so you don't have to, like, cause
44:28more conflict for the main couple.
44:29But, like.
44:30Their best friend in it.
44:31Right.
44:32Maybe the villain gets a redemption arc.
44:35Have we thought about that?
44:36I would love to see more villains with redemption arcs.
44:38What if we, guys.
44:39I would love more nuanced characters.
44:41You know how the prison ones are really big right now?
44:43Like, the, my prison, whatever, whatever.
44:45The villain, who just went to prison from one of them, shows up in prison.
44:48Her whole redemption arc is, like, in the prison.
44:50And then she and, like, I don't know.
44:52She's got, like, a long lost daughter or something.
44:54I don't know.
44:55Who knows?
44:55They escape prison, live happily.
44:56I don't know.
44:57I'm going.
44:57I'm not the writer here.
44:58She's just spitballing.
44:59I'm just, I'm just thinking.
45:01I'm thinking, I do love the idea of, like you said.
45:03You come up with something.
45:04I'll, I'll.
45:05Okay, I will.
45:05I'll, let me.
45:06I'll get it on paper.
45:07Yeah.
45:08We'll work.
45:08We'll, we'll tag team it.
45:09Any advice for any upcoming actresses who would like to follow in your footsteps?
45:14It's going to feel really scary.
45:15At times, there are definitely going to be moments where you doubt yourself and you doubt
45:19your ability to do it.
45:21There's going to be moments where you feel like you've submitted 80 million auditions in
45:24one week and you have heard absolutely nothing.
45:26And that's going to suck.
45:28There will, there are always going to be parts out there for you.
45:30And if you are passionate and if you work and you are talented and you work.
45:33The opportunities that are meant for you will not pass you by.
45:36And you sometimes have to just keep repeating that to yourself.
45:38Yeah, exactly.
45:40I like to have the saying, like my saying that my mom and I always say, I've said a lot,
45:45is you're not big enough to ruin your own life.
45:48So stop believing that you are.
45:49Because I do truly believe that.
45:51I think that good things come to people who work really hard for them.
45:55And if you work really hard for them, the good things will come.
45:58Yeah.
45:58And this industry is a lot of rejection.
46:01Oh, it's so much.
46:02It's not about you personally.
46:03It's not about you.
46:03It's really not about you.
46:04It could be about the fact that they've already cast a male lead and he's way taller than you.
46:07Or way shorter than you.
46:08Real weird if y'all were together.
46:10Yeah.
46:10No, there's, there's so many reasons that you don't get, you don't book something.
46:14You don't get a job.
46:15You don't, um, and it's almost, I would, I would 99.9% of the time, it is not about
46:22you personally.
46:23Yeah.
46:24A lot of times, um, the people who get opportunities and the people who get things are the people
46:29who ask for those opportunities to ask for things.
46:33So if you're like, oh, they never bring me coffee and they always bring this person coffee.
46:38It's not because they like that person more.
46:40It's because that person probably asked for coffee.
46:43And so, um, you can say no, if it's something that you're not comfortable with, I would argue
46:49that it's better to say no, because you don't want to be, you don't ever want to become someone
46:55who can be taken advantage of because you give someone an inch and they'll take a mile.
47:02This is, this can be a very exploitative industry, like not sugarcoating it.
47:07It can be.
47:08And that, that has been the truth for the last 50 years that people will see you and
47:14see someone who is easy to manipulate.
47:16So just making yourself not easy to manipulate and knowing your boundaries and standing your
47:20ground.
47:21I'm, I am a very, very vocal proponent of that.
47:25Have people in your corner who can give you really sound advice on to, as to, and not just
47:30reps, not just people.
47:30Who you pay, friends, not just people who you pay people who have your best interest
47:36at heart because they love you.
47:37Not because they have a horse in the race or a dog or trust your gut.
47:42The amount of times that I have gone against my, my gut and regretted it.
47:49It like, it happens all the time that I'm like, I don't have a great feeling about this situation.
47:53And then it ends up not being a great situation, but yeah, I'm like, it, it, having those boundaries
48:00also gives you clarity in terms of your path and what you actually want.
48:06And that makes it easier to be successful.
48:10Yeah, I agree.
48:11Okay.
48:12Last question.
48:12Oh, what does happiness mean to you?
48:16Are you happy?
48:17I think so.
48:19I think I'm a very optimistic person.
48:20I think it takes a lot to make me unhappy.
48:22I can't remember.
48:23I mean, I've cried.
48:24We all cry.
48:26I mean, I cry a lot.
48:27If you want to see me cry, I know a great show for you.
48:32My sister strikes back with her mafia dynasty out now on good short.
48:35Great show.
48:39Yes.
48:39I think I'm always, I think I'm a very happy person overall.
48:42I don't believe in like toxic positivity.
48:44I just believe that like bad things happen and sometimes you can't control that.
48:48And you just gotta let the emotion pass through you and go back to looking for
48:52the next best thing.
48:53And I think positivity is one of the most powerful tools that we have.
48:56And I think mindset is everything.
48:58My dad always used to say, there's a lot in life that you can't control, but you can
49:01control your attitude.
49:02The only thing in life you can actually control is your attitude.
49:05And I fully believe that.
49:06So why not choose to have a positive attitude?
49:08I sound like such a touch grass person when I talk about this, but I'm always like, wake
49:13up in the morning and instead of thinking about all the ways your life is bad, like
49:16just, just for a experiment, think about what you're grateful for and what's good.
49:21Because when I tell you it changed, practice gratitude, changed my life.
49:26Like it is so much harder to get me down now because I'm like, and I still complain and
49:31I still am like, oh, this is really tough and this sucks.
49:33But like my general attitude and outlook on life has improved exponentially.
49:38And it's really easy to look at us and be like, well, they're living their dreams.
49:41They're doing their dream job.
49:42And we are.
49:42I am.
49:43A hundred and ten percent.
49:44I'm so grateful for it.
49:45I, every single day wake up and I'm just like, I'm so blessed that this is my life.
49:50But this is my mindset when I had five day jobs.
49:52This is my mindset when I was waking up every day and opening Actors Access and praying
49:56for an email that I was not getting.
49:58I was, uh, when I would show up to the, I used to be a birthday party princess, for those
50:02of you who don't know.
50:03And I would go, I would show up to the little four-year-old's birthday party dressed in my
50:08little Elsa outfit and I'd sing, let it go.
50:10And I'm like, it's so cool that I get to perform live in front of an audience of four-year
50:15-olds.
50:15Who cares?
50:16But they loved me.
50:17Exactly.
50:18It's like Beyonce to them.
50:20Yeah.
50:21Yeah, you were.
50:21Super cool.
50:22You were like, did I say even Elsa to them?
50:25Yeah.
50:27I was like, you're that and you did.
50:31And you did.
50:32Yeah.
50:33Positivity can change lives.
50:34So just like as an experiment, like I always tell people, I'm like just as an experiment
50:39every day, either at the beginning of the day or the end of the day, write down one thing
50:44that you're grateful for.
50:46It didn't have to happen that day.
50:47It didn't, it can be something that's just kind of running around in your mind, but you
50:51have to find one thing per day that you're, even if it's like, I,
50:56I really enjoy this snack.
51:01I had ice cream today and it was good.
51:03I'm really happy that I got to spend time talking with my best friend Tess with all of
51:07you lovely people here.
51:08Yeah.
51:09I have a concert coming up.
51:10Like anything, literally anything.
51:11Yeah.
51:12Yeah.
51:13My name is Lottie Guidi from Villains Beware.
51:17My mommy punches hard and my big sister strikes with her mafia dynasty.
51:21And my name is Tess Amelia Dennerstein.
51:24And you can find me and assemble my avenging billionaires and your twin cupids reporting for
51:30duty on good short.
51:31And thank you for watching good chat.
51:40And now sing your, sing your play out song for him.
51:43No, I don't have, I don't have a walkout song.
51:47Should we sing the magic mic song?
51:49The, the pony?
51:51Yeah.
51:52I think he's a man, right?
51:54Yeah, yeah, yeah.
51:54So we have a, we have a special guest.
51:57Very special.
52:10I feel like they can't get us for copyright.
52:12No, no, that's not.
52:13You didn't say any words.
52:14That was great.
52:15Welcome to the show.
52:16Welcome to the show.
52:18This is good.
52:19This is good.
52:19Good.
52:19Good.
52:20Welcome to good.
52:21This is good.
52:23We film good.
52:24And Lottie, Lottie and Tess.
52:26Oh, she remembered.
52:28Our theme song.
52:28Of course I remember our theme song.
52:30Solid theme song.
52:31Um, what's your name?
52:32My name is Luke.
52:33It's so nice to see you guys.
52:35Although special guest is a great name.
52:37I'll go by Mr. Special.
52:38Yeah.
52:39Luke, why is that your name?
52:41Why is it?
52:41Yeah.
52:42Like why did they pick you Luke?
52:43Oh gosh.
52:43Well, my mom really was hoping that I'd be a girl.
52:47Huh.
52:47I wasn't.
52:48Luke is a great girl.
52:49So yeah, they're back.
52:51Uh, Abigail was going to be my name.
52:53Oh, Abby.
52:54Abby.
52:54And so my brother's name is Mitchell.
52:57Abby and Mitchell.
52:58Right.
52:59So Mitchell became Mitch when he got older.
53:01So he's Mitch now.
53:03And Lucas is my full name.
53:04So then they figured that as I got older, Luke would happen.
53:07And it did.
53:07They were right.
53:08Where did Abigail?
53:09What happened to Abigail?
53:10Where is she?
53:11She was our dog.
53:12She became our dog.
53:13Oh, wow.
53:14Abby, my childhood yellow Labrador retriever, which by the way, you know those reels where
53:19like you get to heaven and like you hope to see your dog there.
53:23The rainbow bridge one.
53:24Do what?
53:25The rainbow bridge one.
53:26Yeah, yeah, yeah.
53:27I just see Abby.
53:29I'll cry.
53:29Let's not do this.
53:30Yeah.
53:31I'm already tearing.
53:32Anyway, yeah.
53:32Because Abby was.
53:33There's tears in my eyes.
53:34It was meant to be that Abigail never happened because Abby was the best dog of all time.
53:39But like, anyway, I didn't expect to talk about Abby in this moment.
53:42But Abby, shout out to Abby.
53:44My parents still have her ashes.
53:45In fact, seriously, my parents literally have Abby's ashes right now.
53:49Okay.
53:50That's really sad.
53:51What got you into verticals?
53:52How long have you been doing these?
53:54I've been doing verticals for two years.
53:56That's a great question.
53:58I know nothing about Lucas.
53:59Let me ask questions.
54:00That's a great starting question.
54:02You know, social security numbers next.
54:03I got into verticals because two years ago, an audition that I got a job offer for, I didn't
54:10know it was a vertical.
54:11And I remember, you know, the first time you do a job for anything, you know, it's like,
54:14just want to be kind of easy, out of the way, act very well, but like not have an ego
54:19about you.
54:19You just want to do the job, be kind, treat people well, and that's it.
54:24Especially the first one out.
54:25No, you can be an asshole.
54:26No, I'm kidding.
54:26I noticed the monitors were vertical.
54:28And I could tell everyone was professional, right?
54:30So it's like, hmm, I feel like, should I ask or say something, you know?
54:35And so about like halfway through the first day, I finally go, hey, so question, you know,
54:43crazy, but your monitors, they're up and down.
54:46Like, is that like a strategy for something?
54:48I thought it was maybe some unique strategy and everyone in the room like roared with laughter
54:53and they were like, welcome to vertical.
54:55So that was my introduction.
54:56Wow.
54:57I thought it was just.
54:58Like a group bullying experience.
55:00Yes.
55:00Yeah, love that.
55:01And that's how I got introduced.
55:02Next question.
55:02When was the time that your heart was really broken and you felt?
55:05Holy crap.
55:06I'm kidding.
55:08I think that's how we have time for.
55:102017.
55:11Oh, wow.
55:12No, he's going to do it.
55:12I'll give her the year.
55:132017.
55:142017.
55:14She's doing well and I hope she's doing well.
55:16I'm actually very happy for her.
55:17Amazing.
55:19I think it's much more gentlemanly to wish best for your exes.
55:22And I think we need more good men these days.
55:25I think we should be cursing them with Etsy witches.
55:28To each their own.
55:30I will never get on your bad sides ever.
55:32Okay.
55:33Someone in this room may or may not have cursed someone with an Etsy witch.
55:37If you ever need an Etsy witch.
55:40I've got to recognize.
55:41I know where to go.
55:42She knows a one that works really quickly too.
55:46The results are astounding.
55:48Why are you here?
55:50Why am I here?
55:50Well, I was walking by.
55:53I was in the neighborhood and I was looking for a bathroom and I figured, no.
55:57Classic.
55:58I'm getting ready to do my first good short project.
56:01Your first good short?
56:04That's really exciting.
56:06Woo.
56:06Congratulations.
56:07Oh, that's so exciting.
56:09So this one I'm really excited about because he starts off a little bit cold and distant,
56:14but then over time, you know, he switches and the way that he becomes towards the leading
56:18female and the way that he just becomes, you know, this benevolent man.
56:22I just, that, I really am excited about that.
56:24Is it enemies to lovers?
56:26What's the trope?
56:27Who's the trope?
56:28I can't.
56:29Give me the trope.
56:30Wow, he can't.
56:31He can't?
56:31Okay, well then you're off the podcast.
56:33Get out.
56:33Bye.
56:34Tell us, tell us, tell us the trope or get out.
56:36Uh, it's not enemies to lovers.
56:39Um.
56:39Well, I love enemies to lovers.
56:41Is it hidden identity?
56:42Something like that.
56:43Okay.
56:44Okay.
56:44That's a good one.
56:45That's a good one.
56:46You got a good one.
56:46Yep.
56:47Yep.
56:47Yep.
56:47Very like.
56:48Are there werewolves?
56:49No, not in this one.
56:50Can you believe it?
56:51I can't believe it.
56:52I can't believe it either.
56:53I just wanted to know.
56:53Alpha.
56:55Alpha 4.
56:56Well, Luke, it's been so great to have you on our segment.
57:00Thank you for having me.
