00:06Thank you guys so much for speaking with me.
00:08I was wondering, from each of your perspectives,
00:11who at this point deserves Piper?
00:13I don't know if any of them deserve any of them.
00:16I don't know if Piper deserves anyone.
00:18At this point, I think it's been pretty well established
00:20that all of these characters are going through some...
00:26They're flawed.
00:26They're complicated.
00:27And they have some shit to work out
00:30before I think they can settle down with anyone.
00:34Yeah, I think that's a diplomatic way of doing it.
00:36I was just going to say, that's very politically correct.
00:39So obviously, you know that this story has real biographical roots.
00:44And so we know that the real Piper and the real Larry are together.
00:48Do you see any reconciliation for them in the future?
00:51I love this show, and I love acting in this show.
00:54So for me, I have hope that Larry and Piper have some sort of future,
01:00because that means Jason might have some sort of future in the show.
01:04But the truth of the matter is, the show is its own thing.
01:08Liberties have already been taken for storyline reasons,
01:11and for the continuation of the show, you've got to fabricate some things.
01:14And so we'll see.
01:15I don't really know if that means that Larry and Piper necessarily have a future together.
01:20I mean, it's been a tricky thing thus far.
01:22The characters have all done really good jobs of shooting themselves in their own respective foot.
01:27That's very true.
01:28Yeah, that sounds like a through-line.
01:29Both of you guys have had a really long history in Hollywood.
01:32We came up together.
01:33Red Vigs?
01:34You know, preeps and I, preeps and I, when we were kids in this biz, when we were coming up.
01:39In the 90s.
01:39It's funny.
01:40Back in, remember those times?
01:42It was crazy.
01:42I mean, the 90s were fucking nutty.
01:45I mean, listen.
01:46Do you remember that time that we were doing cocaine?
01:49All that blow.
01:50All that blow.
01:51Off of, whose boobs were that?
01:54I thought it was her ass.
01:55Was it her ass?
01:56It was Dominique Swain.
01:58Dominique Swain.
02:00I can not believe you pulled that out.
02:02Right off of, I think I did it off of her tits and you were doing it off of her
02:06butt.
02:06Possibly.
02:07Anyway.
02:07I don't know.
02:07The 90s were fucking epic.
02:10Oh man, we had a blast.
02:11We were such hot shit back then.
02:13I just told Laura, and I guess you didn't know this, that I was up for that 70s show.
02:18Really?
02:19Yeah.
02:19Anyway, it's good to be back though, isn't it?
02:20Have you done anything to kind of like prepare the people who have not been around or been exposed
02:26to this as much?
02:28Because we have been doing this for a while and we know that there's always ebbs and flows,
02:33I always just try to really set a great example and you show up on time, you know your lines,
02:37you're respectful of your cast and crew.
02:39Weak by example.
02:40I try, yeah.
02:41She does.
02:42I mean, she's amazing.
02:43No, she's a pro.
02:44I mean, there's no question.
02:46Thanks, Big Z.
02:47Conversely, it's been fun for me to see these girls, a lot of whom are new to the business
02:53and this be their first sort of big project and it taking off in this amazing way.
02:57It's been really refreshing and awesome for me because let's be honest, you know, you
03:01do this long enough, you get a little like, you know, you get a little tainted by the
03:05whole thing.
03:06You get a little jaded and it's like, hey, you know what?
03:08This is really exciting.
03:09This is really, really awesome.
03:10You show up on set and Danielle and Uzo are sitting there and their energy is so incredible
03:15and they're just like, isn't this the greatest thing ever?
03:16And you go, oh yeah, this is the greatest thing ever.
03:19Awesome.
03:20Thank you guys so much.
