00:03:31,130 --> 00:03:31,845

00:03:45,465 --> 00:03:45,467

Annalise Basso: Oh God.

 

111

00:03:45,525 --> 00:03:49,095

I thought we were just, you know,

in doing the intro and then, and

 

112

00:03:49,095 --> 00:03:52,305

then we were, you were gonna start

asking me the, the real questions.

 

113

00:03:52,670 --> 00:03:53,475

Oh, no.

 

114

00:03:53,475 --> 00:03:55,395

Now I gotta get my podcaster voice going.

 

115

00:03:56,895 --> 00:03:58,635

Marc Preston: No, I was just, I was

just speaking with somebody the other

 

116

00:03:58,635 --> 00:04:02,595

day, um, fellow named re diamond and,

uh, I, and I was leaning in, I was

 

117

00:04:02,595 --> 00:04:03,885

adjusting some knobs on my thing.

 

118

00:04:03,885 --> 00:04:05,025

I was like, can you hear me okay?

 

119

00:04:05,025 --> 00:04:06,045

He's like, yes.

 

120

00:04:06,045 --> 00:04:09,075

So I was like, wait, let's go and

do this whole thing, like NPR style,

 

121

00:04:09,075 --> 00:04:13,875

like Sarah and Elise, uh, tell me, um,

I'm not gonna do that for you though.

 

122

00:04:13,875 --> 00:04:16,394

I'm not, I'm not gonna

creep you out like that.

 

123

00:04:17,060 --> 00:04:19,729

Um, but no, actually I was

watching, uh, last time.

 

124

00:04:19,729 --> 00:04:22,099

My daughter is in town

from, uh, from school.

 

125

00:04:22,099 --> 00:04:25,010

She's, uh, now home for

the summer and she's 19.

 

126

00:04:25,010 --> 00:04:27,830

And I said, you know, I was like,

let me, let me find some movies.

 

127

00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:29,030

I've always wanted to see.

 

128

00:04:29,630 --> 00:04:30,289

Uh, captain.

 

129

00:04:30,289 --> 00:04:30,979

Fantastic.

 

130

00:04:30,979 --> 00:04:34,609

It is on my like, top 10 list of

movies I haven't seen yet, but

 

131

00:04:34,609 --> 00:04:36,200

I, I wanna see, I wanna see that.

 

132

00:04:36,349 --> 00:04:38,990

I didn't think she would be that into

it, so I'll watch it on my own time.

 

133

00:04:38,990 --> 00:04:41,000

But we watched, uh, camp.

 

134

00:04:41,030 --> 00:04:41,900

I think that's what it was.

 

135

00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:42,650

We were watching camp.

 

136

00:04:42,765 --> 00:04:43,505

Oh, camp.

 

137

00:04:44,570 --> 00:04:44,659

Yes.

 

138

00:04:44,690 --> 00:04:47,539

Something seemed a little bit off

because I'm a big fan of Joey King.

 

139

00:04:47,570 --> 00:04:48,770

Loved the stuff she does.

 

140

00:04:48,770 --> 00:04:52,940

And that was shot in like 2016, but

they just released it like last year.

 

141

00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:53,240

Right.

 

142

00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,289

It was, am I right on that?

 

143

00:04:54,289 --> 00:04:56,270

'cause I was like, wait, did I

miss this when it came to older?

 

144

00:04:56,270 --> 00:04:56,659

Yes.

 

145

00:04:56,810 --> 00:04:58,190

Annalise Basso: You're

no, you didn't miss it.

 

146

00:04:58,190 --> 00:05:01,760

We, we went back for re-shoots

over the course of several years.

 

147

00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,380

So I mean,

 

148

00:05:03,469 --> 00:05:03,950

Marc Preston: really?

 

149

00:05:04,250 --> 00:05:04,700

Annalise Basso: Yes.

 

150

00:05:04,849 --> 00:05:04,909

Marc Preston: Oh, okay.

 

151

00:05:04,969 --> 00:05:07,940

Annalise Basso: Yeah, we started

shooting that I think back

 

152

00:05:07,940 --> 00:05:12,125

in 20, I. Maybe 20 16, 20 17.

 

153

00:05:12,130 --> 00:05:12,540

Okay.

 

154

00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,670

Marc Preston: I, I wanna make

sure it's not on my end, but is

 

155

00:05:14,670 --> 00:05:16,590

your camera off by any chance or?

 

156

00:05:16,665 --> 00:05:16,885

Yes,

 

157

00:05:17,130 --> 00:05:17,580

Annalise Basso: yes, it's,

 

158

00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:18,725

Marc Preston: oh, okay.

 

159

00:05:18,730 --> 00:05:19,020

Okay.

 

160

00:05:19,020 --> 00:05:20,850

I just wanna make sure I didn't

have an error right here.

 

161

00:05:20,850 --> 00:05:21,990

We don't, we don't put video

 

162

00:05:22,050 --> 00:05:22,590

Annalise Basso: in my, oh,

 

163

00:05:22,590 --> 00:05:23,220

Marc Preston: no, no, no, no, no.

 

164

00:05:23,430 --> 00:05:24,480

This is just audio only.

 

165

00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,760

I'm kind of old school, you know,

and actually as funny as listening

 

166

00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,480

to Marc Marin, who I think does a

wonderful job of doing podcasting

 

167

00:05:30,485 --> 00:05:33,600

and, and just kind of, you know, I

came from radio many moons ago, but.

 

168

00:05:34,275 --> 00:05:35,025

He, uh, you have

 

169

00:05:35,025 --> 00:05:37,635

Annalise Basso: the, you have the voice

for it, but you have the face for tv.

 

170

00:05:38,325 --> 00:05:38,385

Marc Preston: Oh.

 

171

00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:38,821

Oh, look.

 

172

00:05:39,285 --> 00:05:40,305

You sweet talker.

 

173

00:05:40,305 --> 00:05:40,785

Look at you.

 

174

00:05:41,355 --> 00:05:42,225

No, I was listening to him.

 

175

00:05:42,225 --> 00:05:45,825

He had this wonderful, I think his, his,

uh, interview with David Harbor recently

 

176

00:05:46,155 --> 00:05:51,405

and he talked about the zen of like long

form chats and, and, and audio only.

 

177

00:05:51,405 --> 00:05:53,415

And some people's like, no, you

have to have little clips of video.

 

178

00:05:53,415 --> 00:05:53,775

I'm like, no.

 

179

00:05:53,775 --> 00:05:55,815

I kinda like the, you

know, theater of the mind.

 

180

00:05:55,815 --> 00:05:57,255

You could do it on a road trip or

 

181

00:05:57,735 --> 00:05:58,485

Annalise Basso: it's an art.

 

182

00:05:58,815 --> 00:06:02,835

I remember when we first started coming

out to LA we would get really, my

 

183

00:06:02,835 --> 00:06:07,185

family would get really excited when

we'd get a, a car that had Sirius XM

 

184

00:06:07,395 --> 00:06:11,060

and we'd go to the old radio channel

that they have play these Oh, okay.

 

185

00:06:11,230 --> 00:06:15,765

Radio shows from, I don't

know, way back when and.

 

186

00:06:16,229 --> 00:06:16,530

I don't know.

 

187

00:06:16,530 --> 00:06:20,070

There's definitely an art to it, to create

a whole world and transport someone.

 

188

00:06:20,070 --> 00:06:22,260

We're so heavily reliant on like, visuals

 

189

00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:22,620

Marc Preston: stuff.

 

190

00:06:22,650 --> 00:06:22,739

Yeah.

 

191

00:06:22,739 --> 00:06:24,390

It's, it's a, something

a little more organic.

 

192

00:06:24,390 --> 00:06:24,630

I don't know.

 

193

00:06:24,630 --> 00:06:27,570

I kinda like the audio thing, but

the video also, I'm a little lazy,

 

194

00:06:27,570 --> 00:06:29,039

the whole editing process on that.

 

195

00:06:29,039 --> 00:06:32,340

It would be just, you know, I'm, I mean,

I'm pretending like I'm philosophical, but

 

196

00:06:32,340 --> 00:06:33,690

I'm probably just more lazy than anything.

 

197

00:06:33,780 --> 00:06:36,090

Um, but, uh, but no.

 

198

00:06:36,090 --> 00:06:37,265

So how long have you been in la?

 

199

00:06:37,864 --> 00:06:39,570

Annalise Basso: I have been in la so yes.

 

200

00:06:39,630 --> 00:06:41,669

Although I do hail from Missouri.

 

201

00:06:41,669 --> 00:06:45,450

I came out here, I started coming

out here when I was eight or nine,

 

202

00:06:45,780 --> 00:06:47,729

and then was here from nine to 18.

 

203

00:06:48,090 --> 00:06:53,789

And then, yeah, I, I did high school

and all that, finished that, and then

 

204

00:06:54,330 --> 00:06:56,130

I just went wherever work took me.

 

205

00:06:56,130 --> 00:06:59,190

And I lived and worked part-time

in Vancouver while I was on snow

 

206

00:06:59,190 --> 00:07:04,679

Piercer, uh, Colorado over COVID

New York over the last couple years.

 

207

00:07:04,679 --> 00:07:09,479

And I just moved back to LA about a year

and a half, almost two years ago actually.

 

208

00:07:10,049 --> 00:07:10,080

Marc Preston: Okay.

 

209

00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:10,784

This month it'll be here.

 

210

00:07:10,784 --> 00:07:12,059

So where, where were you in Colorado?

 

211

00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:14,909

Annalise Basso: Carbondale,

a small mountain town.

 

212

00:07:14,940 --> 00:07:15,120

Okay.

 

213

00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:15,121

Okay.

 

214

00:07:15,165 --> 00:07:15,225

Yeah.

 

215

00:07:16,065 --> 00:07:16,665

Marc Preston: Yeah, I did.

 

216

00:07:16,665 --> 00:07:17,295

I love Colorado.

 

217

00:07:17,295 --> 00:07:21,675

My, a lot of my family is, uh, in

the Denver, or was it Aurora area?

 

218

00:07:22,005 --> 00:07:22,510

Um, I love that.

 

219

00:07:22,605 --> 00:07:23,175

I loved it out there.

 

220

00:07:23,175 --> 00:07:23,535

Annalise Basso: Aurora

 

221

00:07:23,655 --> 00:07:24,225

Marc Preston: Snow Pierce.

 

222

00:07:24,225 --> 00:07:25,725

There's another one I wanna watch.

 

223

00:07:25,785 --> 00:07:28,935

Uh, I kind of figure I gotta watch

the movie first and then I'll start

 

224

00:07:28,935 --> 00:07:31,725

watching this series, but I have

this long, I don't know about you.

 

225

00:07:31,725 --> 00:07:34,425

I got a long list of things I

haven't seen yet that I'm like,

 

226

00:07:34,785 --> 00:07:35,205

Annalise Basso: oh, same.

 

227

00:07:35,205 --> 00:07:35,235

I

 

228

00:07:35,415 --> 00:07:36,675

Marc Preston: really wanna see, you know?

 

229

00:07:37,065 --> 00:07:40,395

Uh, but did you do the whole Disney

Channel thing, or, or Nickelodeon,

 

230

00:07:40,395 --> 00:07:43,455

or did you do the, uh, young kid

actor thing, or were you doing more

 

231

00:07:43,455 --> 00:07:44,805

commercial work when you were younger?

 

232

00:07:45,430 --> 00:07:46,150

Annalise Basso: I did not.

 

233

00:07:47,270 --> 00:07:50,415

I don't, I mean, my brother

was on an episode of iCarly.

 

234

00:07:50,415 --> 00:07:52,455

My sister was on an episode of iCarly.

 

235

00:07:52,845 --> 00:07:56,505

And I, I just never, I never had my shot.

 

236

00:07:58,455 --> 00:08:00,735

Marc Preston: Well, no, you know

something though, you know, although

 

237

00:08:00,735 --> 00:08:03,465

if you've been doing, if you did

commercials, that's actually where

 

238

00:08:03,465 --> 00:08:04,785

the money's at when you're younger.

 

239

00:08:04,785 --> 00:08:05,265

I think.

 

240

00:08:05,265 --> 00:08:06,015

You know, like True.

 

241

00:08:06,285 --> 00:08:07,605

Annalise Basso: That's what

got my brother started.

 

242

00:08:07,605 --> 00:08:10,335

I did a, I think a KFC commercial

or something, and he was like, Hey,

 

243

00:08:10,340 --> 00:08:11,595

how, how much did you make on that?

 

244

00:08:11,595 --> 00:08:14,745

And he was 13 at the time

and that's when he started.

 

245

00:08:14,745 --> 00:08:18,795

He was like, alright, throw

my hat out in the ring.

 

246

00:08:19,455 --> 00:08:21,855

Marc Preston: Yeah, I, I kinda like

your retro headphones you got on there.

 

247

00:08:21,855 --> 00:08:24,825

That's kinda like, kind of reminds,

it kind of reminds me of the old, you

 

248

00:08:24,825 --> 00:08:29,355

know, Sony Walkman, sorry, I'm showing

my age here with little foam, like,

 

249

00:08:29,355 --> 00:08:32,170

you know, thing that was like the jam

back then, you know, it was the jam.

 

250

00:08:32,170 --> 00:08:33,525

It's got a little retro ish look.

 

251

00:08:33,525 --> 00:08:34,065

I dig that.

 

252

00:08:35,174 --> 00:08:35,775

Annalise Basso: Um, these

are, these are cool.

 

253

00:08:35,775 --> 00:08:37,005

They're from a company.

 

254

00:08:37,005 --> 00:08:40,784

They did a, uh, a company that I like

called Brain Dead, did a collaboration

 

255

00:08:40,784 --> 00:08:43,155

with a, I don't know, a tech.

 

256

00:08:44,385 --> 00:08:48,405

Tech, tech technical, I don't

know, just like an audio brand.

 

257

00:08:48,405 --> 00:08:48,464

Yeah.

 

258

00:08:49,064 --> 00:08:52,694

And um, I'm not gonna try to pronounce

it 'cause it's like ai, ai, ai.

 

259

00:08:52,694 --> 00:08:54,135

I don't dunno if it's all one word.

 

260

00:08:54,135 --> 00:08:56,925

I know I, I'm not as cool

as I present myself to be as

 

261

00:08:56,925 --> 00:08:58,155

these headphones make me seem.

 

262

00:08:58,155 --> 00:08:58,515

It's,

 

263

00:08:58,694 --> 00:08:59,290

Marc Preston: oh, I'm

not cool, cool enough.

 

264

00:08:59,655 --> 00:08:59,775

All the

 

265

00:08:59,775 --> 00:09:00,314

Annalise Basso: illusion

 

266

00:09:01,244 --> 00:09:03,464

Marc Preston: if Ikea made

headphones, that's kind of what

 

267

00:09:03,464 --> 00:09:04,484

I think they would look like.

 

268

00:09:04,755 --> 00:09:07,334

You know, it's kind of,

got's got a cool vibe to it.

 

269

00:09:07,905 --> 00:09:08,175

Um,

 

270

00:09:08,175 --> 00:09:08,625

Annalise Basso: thank you.

 

271

00:09:08,895 --> 00:09:11,324

Marc Preston: Yeah, I, I'd use these

little in ear things 'cause it's

 

272

00:09:11,324 --> 00:09:14,444

just working in voiceover for so

long, having headphones on for a long

 

273

00:09:14,444 --> 00:09:15,675

time, it gets kind of hot and I get

 

274

00:09:15,765 --> 00:09:16,125

Annalise Basso: fair,

 

275

00:09:16,214 --> 00:09:16,545

Marc Preston: you know,

 

276

00:09:16,694 --> 00:09:18,314

Annalise Basso: that's why I like

these because they're lighter.

 

277

00:09:18,375 --> 00:09:21,104

I, and yeah, I guess if they were

Ikea we could call them something

 

278

00:09:21,104 --> 00:09:25,275

like, hi, hi bo Clown Club.

 

279

00:09:27,614 --> 00:09:28,305

Marc Preston: Well, it's right off the

 

280

00:09:28,305 --> 00:09:28,665

Annalise Basso: tongue.

 

281

00:09:29,714 --> 00:09:30,974

Marc Preston: Where's your,

where are your people?

 

282

00:09:30,974 --> 00:09:31,364

Where are they?

 

283

00:09:31,364 --> 00:09:33,314

Where do they originate from originally?

 

284

00:09:33,555 --> 00:09:34,724

Annalise Basso: I have no idea.

 

285

00:09:34,964 --> 00:09:39,645

I mean, my mom did one of those, an

ancestral tests, but I don't know.

 

286

00:09:39,704 --> 00:09:41,354

I, my dad.

 

287

00:09:42,030 --> 00:09:45,900

His side is Italian, Northern Italian,

you know, the paler part of Italy.

 

288

00:09:46,290 --> 00:09:50,459

And then mom, the only thing

that I remember her telling me

 

289

00:09:50,459 --> 00:09:54,360

about her ancestral test was 72%

Scandinavian on her mother's side.

 

290

00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,990

So, I don't know, I'm thinking

Scottish, British, Irish.

 

291

00:09:58,530 --> 00:09:59,655

But who's to say

 

292

00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,170

Marc Preston: I did that also?

 

293

00:10:01,170 --> 00:10:02,370

And I, it was very interesting.

 

294

00:10:02,370 --> 00:10:06,390

'cause I'm, I, I am Jewish, but

most of half of my family is

 

295

00:10:06,435 --> 00:10:08,400

uh, uh, Ukrainian and Israeli.

 

296

00:10:08,459 --> 00:10:12,150

The other half, and I found this

out, I'm like, one quarter Scottish.

 

297

00:10:12,180 --> 00:10:13,710

So it's like, oh wow.

 

298

00:10:13,710 --> 00:10:14,339

Jewish, Scottish.

 

299

00:10:14,339 --> 00:10:14,490

Yeah.

 

300

00:10:14,490 --> 00:10:18,569

So I thought, and I really dug deep

into it and I found it that on one

 

301

00:10:18,569 --> 00:10:23,189

side of my family got here in 1907, the

other side, uh, financed the Mayflower.

 

302

00:10:23,189 --> 00:10:24,150

I'm like, woo, wait a minute.

 

303

00:10:24,150 --> 00:10:24,390

I'm og

 

304

00:10:24,780 --> 00:10:25,170

Annalise Basso: what?

 

305

00:10:26,415 --> 00:10:27,975

Marc Preston: They even had

a castle and the whole deal.

 

306

00:10:27,975 --> 00:10:31,965

There was a handful of people who

financed, uh, the Mayflower to come

 

307

00:10:31,965 --> 00:10:33,015

over here, and they were one of them.

 

308

00:10:33,135 --> 00:10:33,525

That's well, okay.

 

309

00:10:33,740 --> 00:10:35,745

Annalise Basso: Now, now that

you've brought ancestors into

 

310

00:10:35,745 --> 00:10:37,185

it, I'm related to Jesse James.

 

311

00:10:37,185 --> 00:10:38,025

I know that much.

 

312

00:10:38,835 --> 00:10:39,045

Really?

 

313

00:10:39,045 --> 00:10:40,815

Jesse James and Patrick Henry.

 

314

00:10:40,815 --> 00:10:42,830

1. Or gimme death,

 

315

00:10:43,580 --> 00:10:44,690

Marc Preston: how relevant right now.

 

316

00:10:44,690 --> 00:10:45,525

So, uh, right.

 

317

00:10:45,825 --> 00:10:48,320

And I, and I discovered I had

a sister I didn't know, so

 

318

00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:49,160

that's a whole other thing.

 

319

00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:49,760

Ancestors, Marc.

 

320

00:10:50,150 --> 00:10:50,600

No joke.

 

321

00:10:50,690 --> 00:10:51,170

Yeah.

 

322

00:10:51,230 --> 00:10:57,200

And it was really funny because I, I

know it was, she was born, uh, about

 

323

00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,200

nine months after I went to summer camp

when I was like eight or nine years old.

 

324

00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,480

So I think I know what

happened, uh, during that.

 

325

00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,520

Uh, it's, it's a whole thing.

 

326

00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:04,521

How

 

327

00:11:04,526 --> 00:11:05,445

Annalise Basso: long

were you at summer camp?

 

328

00:11:06,835 --> 00:11:08,060

Marc Preston: Long enough, apparently.

 

329

00:11:09,110 --> 00:11:09,710

Let's be honest.

 

330

00:11:09,710 --> 00:11:10,490

It doesn't take that long.

 

331

00:11:10,850 --> 00:11:14,720

Um, but keeping it PG 13, but

no, it was really interesting.

 

332

00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,230

So we actually met her and stuff, so

I grew up as an only kid and then my

 

333

00:11:18,230 --> 00:11:23,480

father remarried somebody much younger

when I was 30 and I had a little sister,

 

334

00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,030

so I got like, you know, I grew up

as an only kid wishing I had family,

 

335

00:11:26,030 --> 00:11:27,525

but I had went, or I guess I got.

 

336

00:11:27,950 --> 00:11:30,350

Like siblings in the most

roundabout way possible.

 

337

00:11:30,410 --> 00:11:31,040

But, uh mm-hmm.

 

338

00:11:31,460 --> 00:11:34,100

Outside of the dog, the dog is my

closest sibling, I guess, when I was a

 

339

00:11:34,100 --> 00:11:34,190

Annalise Basso: kid.

 

340

00:11:34,460 --> 00:11:34,490

Oh.

 

341

00:11:34,790 --> 00:11:37,220

Marc Preston: Uh, so do you have

any pets, uh, at, at home with you?

 

342

00:11:37,340 --> 00:11:39,170

Annalise Basso: I do, I have two cats.

 

343

00:11:39,260 --> 00:11:40,880

And where are they?

 

344

00:11:40,885 --> 00:11:43,820

They're, they usually harass me

whenever I'm doing anything important.

 

345

00:11:43,820 --> 00:11:47,090

Whenever I'm taping an audition, you

know, they sit at my feet or like,

 

346

00:11:47,090 --> 00:11:54,710

they, they have a very acute awareness

of when to meow and, you know, crawl

 

347

00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:55,970

all over my computer and all that.

 

348

00:11:55,970 --> 00:11:57,980

So, but they, they, they

seem to be at peace.

 

349

00:11:57,980 --> 00:11:59,055

I don't know where.

 

350

00:11:59,055 --> 00:11:59,710

They're very, very nice.

 

351

00:12:00,165 --> 00:12:01,515

Marc Preston: I'm, I'm,

you know, I'm fascinated.

 

352

00:12:01,515 --> 00:12:02,805

What is that bar thing behind you?

 

353

00:12:02,805 --> 00:12:05,775

Is that like a ballet thing

or a Yes, it's a ballet bar.

 

354

00:12:05,985 --> 00:12:07,335

Oh, that's how I thought it was.

 

355

00:12:07,335 --> 00:12:08,265

You're, I'm sorry.

 

356

00:12:08,265 --> 00:12:09,645

It's like, maybe it's a DH, adhd.

 

357

00:12:09,645 --> 00:12:12,795

I don't know, but I'm sitting there

going so that I'm studying this going.

 

358

00:12:12,795 --> 00:12:14,715

That seems like one of

those ballet things.

 

359

00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,875

Annalise Basso: Yes, it is just cat.

 

360

00:12:17,445 --> 00:12:18,430

There's like a cardboard.

 

361

00:12:18,580 --> 00:12:19,070

Exactly.

 

362

00:12:19,070 --> 00:12:19,750

Is that a cat house?

 

363

00:12:20,165 --> 00:12:22,465

Yes, it's, it's Marc.

 

364

00:12:24,255 --> 00:12:25,065

Marc Preston: What is that again?

 

365

00:12:25,565 --> 00:12:27,760

Annalise Basso: An it's a

KAA sushi house for the cats.

 

366

00:12:27,910 --> 00:12:29,050

Marc Preston: Ooh, how cool is su?

 

367

00:12:29,050 --> 00:12:32,440

So you got some, you got some, uh, you,

you got some high-end cats going on there.

 

368

00:12:32,890 --> 00:12:35,410

Yeah, they makes me feel bad.

 

369

00:12:35,410 --> 00:12:37,960

I gave a dog pizza crust

a couple days ago, so, no,

 

370

00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,210

Annalise Basso: it's su no, it's,

no, that's, they, they eat, they

 

371

00:12:40,210 --> 00:12:42,100

eat pretty boring, healthy food.

 

372

00:12:42,100 --> 00:12:42,790

A pizza crust.

 

373

00:12:42,790 --> 00:12:44,500

I'm sure they'd enjoy a pizza crust.

 

374

00:12:44,530 --> 00:12:45,220

My cats, but,

 

375

00:12:45,700 --> 00:12:47,440

Marc Preston: well, I was, I

was curious, does your brother

 

376

00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,480

live in the LA area as well?

 

377

00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:49,690

Uh, no.

 

378

00:12:49,690 --> 00:12:52,360

Did your family migrate there or

do they stay in the St. Louis area?

 

379

00:12:52,450 --> 00:12:55,030

Annalise Basso: So we're all

spread out all over the country.

 

380

00:12:55,030 --> 00:12:57,280

And he's currently moving all around.

 

381

00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:58,420

I mean, he's working so much.

 

382

00:12:58,420 --> 00:13:01,450

I think they're, I don't know how

much I'm allowed to say about what

 

383

00:13:01,540 --> 00:13:02,860

he's doing, what he is working on.

 

384

00:13:02,980 --> 00:13:03,160

Marc Preston: Oh, that's okay.

 

385

00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:06,760

Annalise Basso: But, um,

yeah, he is everywhere.

 

386

00:13:06,850 --> 00:13:11,260

And my sister, she's in Florida

with her husband and then mom is in

 

387

00:13:11,260 --> 00:13:13,690

Tennessee and dad is in the woods.

 

388

00:13:15,295 --> 00:13:16,020

Marc Preston: Dad's Wait.

 

389

00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,270

Dad's is, is he, is he like

 

390

00:13:18,275 --> 00:13:18,605

Annalise Basso: cabin?

 

391

00:13:18,810 --> 00:13:19,680

Cabin in the woods.

 

392

00:13:19,685 --> 00:13:19,965

Marc Preston: Okay.

 

393

00:13:19,970 --> 00:13:20,250

Okay.

 

394

00:13:20,250 --> 00:13:23,100

So I didn't know if he was just sort

of like, you know, uh, going like

 

395

00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,340

Grizzly Adams into the woods, or if

he's just kinda like he set up a place.

 

396

00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:27,210

Oh, that's very cool.

 

397

00:13:27,870 --> 00:13:29,220

I've always, I was thinking about that.

 

398

00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:31,020

I was speaking to somebody the

other day, it's like, what would

 

399

00:13:31,020 --> 00:13:32,700

be the optimal situation for me?

 

400

00:13:33,090 --> 00:13:35,940

I said I'd be having some land or

maybe living in the woods, and that's

 

401

00:13:35,940 --> 00:13:39,000

cool, but I'm like, I'm a beach guy

and I like to be near the beach, so.

 

402

00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:39,090

Oh, yeah.

 

403

00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,270

Now are you the, I gotta say, are

you the only redhead in your family?

 

404

00:13:42,630 --> 00:13:45,360

Annalise Basso: No, my

mom's a redhead dad.

 

405

00:13:45,690 --> 00:13:47,070

I mean, he was strawberry blonde.

 

406

00:13:47,070 --> 00:13:47,805

It's mostly gray now.

 

407

00:13:48,115 --> 00:13:48,405

Okay.

 

408

00:13:48,405 --> 00:13:53,670

But sister, she has hair, like

sleeping beauty, but with a hint of

 

409

00:13:53,670 --> 00:13:55,380

strawberry, like strawberry gold.

 

410

00:13:55,830 --> 00:13:58,560

And then brother is more auburn.

 

411

00:13:58,890 --> 00:14:00,480

But I, I would say I have the.

 

412

00:14:00,885 --> 00:14:02,055

The most flaming red.

 

413

00:14:02,055 --> 00:14:02,355

I think you're,

 

414

00:14:02,355 --> 00:14:06,465

Marc Preston: I think the Italian, uh,

line, the Italian DNA kind of came in.

 

415

00:14:06,645 --> 00:14:08,750

Your brother seems to have that, you know?

 

416

00:14:08,750 --> 00:14:08,895

Uh, yeah.

 

417

00:14:09,795 --> 00:14:11,985

'cause he, he's got that,

he's got that, uh, look.

 

418

00:14:12,375 --> 00:14:14,895

Did, uh, uh, night agent,

did that get picked up again?

 

419

00:14:14,895 --> 00:14:15,435

I know.

 

420

00:14:15,555 --> 00:14:20,445

Was it I always could conflate night agent

and, um, oh, there was another one where,

 

421

00:14:20,625 --> 00:14:23,115

uh, there was another Netflix show is, um.

 

422

00:14:23,510 --> 00:14:23,600

God.

 

423

00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:23,660

You

 

424

00:14:24,350 --> 00:14:25,485

Annalise Basso: talking

about with Eddie Redman?

 

425

00:14:25,665 --> 00:14:27,200

Marc Preston: That's, that,

that, oh, the peacock thing?

 

426

00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:32,300

No, the, uh, no, this is, uh,

where he is the, the recruit.

 

427

00:14:32,330 --> 00:14:32,990

The recruit.

 

428

00:14:32,990 --> 00:14:36,530

That's what it ed where the guy is

recruited, uh, into the ccia A to be

 

429

00:14:36,530 --> 00:14:38,780

a, uh, uh, an attorney or something.

 

430

00:14:38,780 --> 00:14:42,140

I think one of them didn't get picked up

for the next season and one of them did.

 

431

00:14:42,140 --> 00:14:43,700

Do you know if night

agent's coming back or I,

 

432

00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,180

Annalise Basso: maybe you should

call the night agent line.

 

433

00:14:47,180 --> 00:14:47,900

Ask my brother.

 

434

00:14:48,290 --> 00:14:48,740

Oh.

 

435

00:14:48,740 --> 00:14:48,741

Oh,

 

436

00:14:49,310 --> 00:14:51,080

Marc Preston: that was

great promotion right there.

 

437

00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:51,350

Thank you.

 

438

00:14:51,350 --> 00:14:51,710

I like that.

 

439

00:14:51,710 --> 00:14:53,925

That was a, that was a nice

segue because I actually

 

440

00:14:54,135 --> 00:14:55,580

Annalise Basso: dunno, I dunno,

 

441

00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,460

Marc Preston: was this something

growing up you were, like, with your

 

442

00:14:58,460 --> 00:15:02,810

brother, like, you know, was the

theater part of your life when you

 

443

00:15:02,810 --> 00:15:06,800

were a kid or, or acting, or was this

something that y all just kind of

 

444

00:15:06,830 --> 00:15:08,450

independently found your way into?

 

445

00:15:09,260 --> 00:15:11,569

Annalise Basso: Well, my sister.

 

446

00:15:12,255 --> 00:15:14,775

She, she was, you know, a model.

 

447

00:15:14,775 --> 00:15:20,895

She's the beauty of the family and she was

doing her thing back in St. Louis, and I

 

448

00:15:20,895 --> 00:15:24,704

would tag along with older sister to these

little local St. Louis fashion shows.

 

449

00:15:25,275 --> 00:15:30,645

And at one of those, an agent

approached my mom and she asked if

 

450

00:15:30,645 --> 00:15:32,834

her girls would be interested in

trying this out for a little bit.

 

451

00:15:32,834 --> 00:15:34,755

And so she talked it over with my dad.

 

452

00:15:35,025 --> 00:15:37,125

My dad, who's a very pragmatic lawyer.

 

453

00:15:37,425 --> 00:15:40,155

Just said, you know, as long as

it doesn't inter interfere with

 

454

00:15:40,155 --> 00:15:41,775

their schooling and all that.

 

455

00:15:41,775 --> 00:15:46,875

So then we started booking locally and

we just started this and started making

 

456

00:15:46,905 --> 00:15:54,675

money and, uh, it was more of a lucrative

career choice to pursue this full-time.

 

457

00:15:54,675 --> 00:15:57,105

It wasn't, oh, we're all enjoying this.

 

458

00:15:57,105 --> 00:16:00,255

It was, oh, this, they could

actually have a future in this.

 

459

00:16:00,255 --> 00:16:04,125

And so my mom and my dad were

very strategic about the way they.

 

460

00:16:04,719 --> 00:16:08,140

Supported our career because it

wasn't about, oh, well they booked

 

461

00:16:08,140 --> 00:16:10,930

a couple jobs, let's, you know, pick

up our lives, move out to la mm-hmm.

 

462

00:16:11,199 --> 00:16:14,560

It was all very dependent

upon, we took baby steps.

 

463

00:16:14,859 --> 00:16:19,030

And I think if you, I don't know for

any parents out there who have children

 

464

00:16:19,030 --> 00:16:23,650

who wanna be actors, it's, and who are

talented, I don't know, just baby steps.

 

465

00:16:24,099 --> 00:16:24,594

Um mm-hmm.

 

466

00:16:24,675 --> 00:16:27,219

Because this has become my whole life.

 

467

00:16:27,219 --> 00:16:30,160

And there was a time where it felt

like, oh, how did this even happen?

 

468

00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,300

How did I even get here?

 

469

00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:37,119

And, uh, you know, in, in high school

I was balancing, balancing a full-time

 

470

00:16:37,119 --> 00:16:41,140

professional career as an actress

and then a full-time academic career.

 

471

00:16:41,650 --> 00:16:44,229

Marc Preston: But did you finish up high

school, like regular high school, or did

 

472

00:16:44,229 --> 00:16:45,880

you just kind of segue out into graduat?

 

473

00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:46,359

You did finish high school.

 

474

00:16:46,714 --> 00:16:46,915

Graduated

 

475

00:16:46,915 --> 00:16:47,194

Annalise Basso: distinction.

 

476

00:16:47,305 --> 00:16:47,594

Yeah.

 

477

00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:52,839

I got my, what is it, GEDI got my GED

and then I, I wanted to get my diploma,

 

478

00:16:52,839 --> 00:16:54,280

so I just continued going to school.

 

479

00:16:54,609 --> 00:16:59,500

And I have, I loved my teachers

and so I had continued going to

 

480

00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:02,469

school and got my diploma and then.

 

481

00:17:03,195 --> 00:17:09,135

It was really only until recently that

I have decided that this is my destiny,

 

482

00:17:09,194 --> 00:17:15,135

not just my career or a hobby or just

something that I am, that I like to do.

 

483

00:17:15,135 --> 00:17:17,715

It is, it's something that

I've become passionate about

 

484

00:17:17,715 --> 00:17:19,694

and fearless about pursuing.

 

485

00:17:19,694 --> 00:17:23,595

And that's, that's just, that's very new

all within the last couple years, I'd say.

 

486

00:17:23,925 --> 00:17:26,655

Marc Preston: Could you imagine

yourself doing anything else or

 

487

00:17:26,655 --> 00:17:29,715

what, what, was there anything

growing up or even recently where

 

488

00:17:29,715 --> 00:17:31,335

you said, you know, this turns me on.

 

489

00:17:31,335 --> 00:17:35,505

I could, I could do that thing also,

or was the acting thing just kind of,

 

490

00:17:35,685 --> 00:17:37,515

were you funneling right into this?

 

491

00:17:37,515 --> 00:17:37,725

Okay.

 

492

00:17:37,725 --> 00:17:39,255

The acting thing is the thing for me,

 

493

00:17:39,735 --> 00:17:43,425

Annalise Basso: I wanna do it all,

which is why acting is such a great

 

494

00:17:44,535 --> 00:17:48,915

career for me because with each

role you get to explore different

 

495

00:17:48,915 --> 00:17:51,375

parts of yourself and with Captain.

 

496

00:17:51,375 --> 00:17:52,095

Fantastic.

 

497

00:17:52,755 --> 00:17:56,535

For example, I had, I mean, the

director put us through a nature

 

498

00:17:56,535 --> 00:18:00,735

survivalist bootcamp in the foothills

of the Cascade Mountain Range, really?

 

499

00:18:00,735 --> 00:18:02,715

And I got to do, uh.

 

500

00:18:03,765 --> 00:18:05,625

Archery lessons and yoga lessons.

 

501

00:18:05,625 --> 00:18:06,765

I hadn't done yoga before.

 

502

00:18:06,765 --> 00:18:12,075

I mean, I was 14 years old and I

was just like encouraged to just

 

503

00:18:12,135 --> 00:18:15,855

read all these books that I wasn't

even reading at school at the time.

 

504

00:18:16,305 --> 00:18:23,415

And I don't know, it just acting, I

think is a practice of what or is a

 

505

00:18:23,415 --> 00:18:25,065

study on like the human experience.

 

506

00:18:25,065 --> 00:18:30,285

And by pursuing that as a full-time job,

my job as an artist is to try to gather

 

507

00:18:30,285 --> 00:18:32,295

as many of those experiences as I can.

 

508

00:18:32,535 --> 00:18:37,935

So when I'm not working, I mean, I, I

teach ballet, uh, to, you know, these

 

509

00:18:37,935 --> 00:18:42,015

little girls at the figure skating rink

where I first started, uh, I was figure

 

510

00:18:42,015 --> 00:18:46,425

skating competitively at the time and then

I chose to focus more on ballet 'cause I

 

511

00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:48,765

fell in love with my, my ballet teacher.

 

512

00:18:48,765 --> 00:18:51,285

Not in that way, but I

just loved her teaching.

 

513

00:18:52,755 --> 00:18:54,945

And we still dance to this day.

 

514

00:18:54,945 --> 00:18:57,915

I mean, in her, in the laundry

room with her apartment building

 

515

00:18:58,485 --> 00:19:00,735

because I knew I wasn't gonna

be professional, but I loved it.

 

516

00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:07,320

And, um, I mean, I do Muay Thai because

I think it's important to learn, know

 

517

00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,800

how to defend yourself, but also I

wanna be a fighter in a movie one day.

 

518

00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,920

I wanna know what it is to train

and put in the hours, and I'm,

 

519

00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,790

I'm just trying to gather as many

experiences as I can and exploit life.

 

520

00:19:17,790 --> 00:19:21,270

Marc Preston: It, it sounds like, kinda

like, you want the authentic experience

 

521

00:19:21,270 --> 00:19:24,389

as opposed to playing, like, you kind of

wanna put the shoes on and you wanna do

 

522

00:19:24,389 --> 00:19:26,700

the thing before you play it on camera.

 

523

00:19:26,774 --> 00:19:27,595

Annalise Basso: You're, you're right.

 

524

00:19:27,899 --> 00:19:28,920

You're exactly right.

 

525

00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:33,540

And I, I mean, I just wanna

experience as much as I can.

 

526

00:19:35,010 --> 00:19:37,170

Marc Preston: So, is there, well,

going back, captain Fantas, I'm a big

 

527

00:19:37,170 --> 00:19:40,830

fan of Vigo Mortenson and, uh, uh,

Steve Za was in that also, wasn't he?

 

528

00:19:40,875 --> 00:19:41,095

Annalise Basso: Yes.

 

529

00:19:41,370 --> 00:19:41,760

Yes.

 

530

00:19:41,879 --> 00:19:42,060

Marc Preston: Okay.

 

531

00:19:42,060 --> 00:19:43,860

Yeah, he's that love that guy.

 

532

00:19:44,010 --> 00:19:47,129

Was that your first film that

you had done, you know, something

 

533

00:19:47,129 --> 00:19:50,070

where, you know, you'd had a

more substantial part, let's say?

 

534

00:19:50,460 --> 00:19:54,180

Annalise Basso: I would say it

was my first role that, 'cause

 

535

00:19:54,180 --> 00:19:56,520

I mean, I had worked on Oculus.

 

536

00:19:57,405 --> 00:19:59,745

Several years prior to to Captain.

 

537

00:19:59,745 --> 00:20:00,435

Fantastic.

 

538

00:20:00,465 --> 00:20:03,735

And that was really one of those jobs.

 

539

00:20:04,005 --> 00:20:05,655

Oculus, and then I'll talk about Captain.

 

540

00:20:05,655 --> 00:20:06,165

Fantastic.

 

541

00:20:06,165 --> 00:20:10,545

But Oculus, I remember with working well,

working with Mike Flanagan and he treated

 

542

00:20:10,545 --> 00:20:16,995

me like an adult where usually on set

when you're in your teenage years, I think

 

543

00:20:16,995 --> 00:20:21,135

I was 13 at the time, and people don't

really know how to interact with you.

 

544

00:20:21,225 --> 00:20:26,025

And by that time I had already been

working on sets, um, since, yeah,

 

545

00:20:26,055 --> 00:20:28,815

for like five years and working with

adults, but people still, they don't

 

546

00:20:28,815 --> 00:20:31,695

know how to, they either treat you like

a toddler or treat you like you're 40.

 

547

00:20:32,265 --> 00:20:37,245

And here's, and here's this, this

incredible director Mike, he comes along

 

548

00:20:37,245 --> 00:20:41,175

and he's just like talking to me the same

way he was speaking with Karen Gillen.

 

549

00:20:41,175 --> 00:20:43,305

And there wasn't any hesitation or fear.

 

550

00:20:43,305 --> 00:20:48,255

There was just trust and respect

and, uh, to have that at such

 

551

00:20:48,255 --> 00:20:50,835

a young age was a huge gift.

 

552

00:20:51,450 --> 00:20:54,480

Especially on that set because

it was, I mean, it was a lot of

 

553

00:20:54,540 --> 00:20:56,580

heavy, heavy material, heavy stuff.

 

554

00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:03,420

And then Captain Fantastic came

along a few years later and that was

 

555

00:21:03,420 --> 00:21:08,580

honestly one of the first roles where

I actually had to do some research.

 

556

00:21:08,940 --> 00:21:10,230

You know, I, I mean,

 

557

00:21:10,625 --> 00:21:12,750

Marc Preston: how, how old were

you when you did, uh, captain?

 

558

00:21:12,750 --> 00:21:13,290

Fantastic.

 

559

00:21:13,290 --> 00:21:14,190

You were 14, I think.

 

560

00:21:14,190 --> 00:21:14,850

Is that what you said?

 

561

00:21:14,850 --> 00:21:14,940

I, so

 

562

00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,640

Annalise Basso: I must have

been younger when I did Oculus.

 

563

00:21:17,670 --> 00:21:18,000

I don't know.

 

564

00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,080

It's all kind of blurring together.

 

565

00:21:19,110 --> 00:21:20,490

'cause I, yeah, I was 14.

 

566

00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,830

I was 14 when I did Captain.

 

567

00:21:22,830 --> 00:21:23,460

Fantastic.

 

568

00:21:23,460 --> 00:21:26,760

And I probably 12 or 11 or 12 when I did

 

569

00:21:27,390 --> 00:21:27,420

Marc Preston: Oculus.

 

570

00:21:27,420 --> 00:21:30,150

And, and you played the younger

version of Karen Gillen, if

 

571

00:21:30,150 --> 00:21:31,230

I'm not mistaken, correct?

 

572

00:21:31,235 --> 00:21:31,830

Annalise Basso: Yes, yes.

 

573

00:21:31,860 --> 00:21:33,780

Marc Preston: Which is what

she's in the life of Chuck.

 

574

00:21:33,780 --> 00:21:35,520

So it's kind of a odd full circle.

 

575

00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,500

Thing for there with her.

 

576

00:21:37,500 --> 00:21:37,770

Yeah.

 

577

00:21:39,030 --> 00:21:40,080

Annalise Basso: Oc a mini Oculus reunion.

 

578

00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:40,800

That was so fun.

 

579

00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:40,860

Yeah.

 

580

00:21:41,730 --> 00:21:44,160

Marc Preston: Um, but yeah, I

think that, I remember being a

 

581

00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,800

kid and I, I always seemed to get

along pretty well with adults.

 

582

00:21:47,070 --> 00:21:49,889

It was always nice, the one just

sort of just talk to you like you're

 

583

00:21:49,889 --> 00:21:53,341

just one of them as opposed to,

well, bless your heart, you know?

 

584

00:21:53,346 --> 00:21:53,715

Mm-hmm.

 

585

00:21:53,795 --> 00:21:54,690

Like talking down to you.

 

586

00:21:54,690 --> 00:21:58,020

Um, I grew up in the south where bless

your heart can mean many different things.

 

587

00:21:58,020 --> 00:21:58,080

Yeah.

 

588

00:21:59,460 --> 00:22:00,840

Annalise Basso: It often

means the opposite.

 

589

00:22:01,075 --> 00:22:01,355

Bless

 

590

00:22:01,355 --> 00:22:02,160

Marc Preston: your, yeah.

 

591

00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,740

So as you're doing this, was it,

uh, was it embraced by your parents?

 

592

00:22:13,740 --> 00:22:16,350

Were they kinda like, okay, this

is cool, we're, we're all right

 

593

00:22:16,350 --> 00:22:18,750

with you Missing some school or

doing some traveling or kind of

 

594

00:22:18,750 --> 00:22:21,600

putting yourself in some situations

maybe you wouldn't normally be in?

 

595

00:22:21,900 --> 00:22:24,690

Were they cool with it

or were they cautious?

 

596

00:22:25,020 --> 00:22:25,620

Annalise Basso: Cautious.

 

597

00:22:25,620 --> 00:22:26,490

Very cautious.

 

598

00:22:26,850 --> 00:22:30,750

And yeah, again, yeah, cautious

and, and very strategic.

 

599

00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:36,150

Because my education was really

important to my dad and just, not

 

600

00:22:36,150 --> 00:22:39,600

even just education, like, oh, you

know, they have to go to college.

 

601

00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,220

They have to follow a traditional path.

 

602

00:22:41,490 --> 00:22:46,890

He just wanted to make sure that we had

all the tools, that this wasn't just a,

 

603

00:22:48,900 --> 00:22:50,400

I don't know, something secondary.

 

604

00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:57,180

He's, he's, he always, even his kids made

us organize our priorities and especially

 

605

00:22:57,180 --> 00:23:05,430

with something that demands so much of

your time and your life acting, he just

 

606

00:23:05,430 --> 00:23:11,130

wanted to make sure that we were, we were

pursuing it and they, uh, in a wise way.

 

607

00:23:11,910 --> 00:23:12,150

Marc Preston: I gotcha.

 

608

00:23:12,155 --> 00:23:14,070

Well, well, you said he was

an attorney or is an attorney.

 

609

00:23:14,070 --> 00:23:18,360

What, what kinda law, what, what, what

vocation within law does he practice?

 

610

00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:18,990

Annalise Basso: Civil litigation.

 

611

00:23:19,544 --> 00:23:20,715

Marc Preston: Civil litigation.

 

612

00:23:20,715 --> 00:23:20,835

Mm-hmm.

 

613

00:23:21,075 --> 00:23:22,575

So he's good at arguing basically.

 

614

00:23:23,145 --> 00:23:24,705

Annalise Basso: He is,

he's very good at arguing.

 

615

00:23:24,885 --> 00:23:25,155

Yeah.

 

616

00:23:25,649 --> 00:23:27,230

And he taught me to be good at it too.

 

617

00:23:28,544 --> 00:23:28,815

Marc Preston: No.

 

618

00:23:28,815 --> 00:23:32,355

Was your, was your mother, uh, or is your

mother, uh, does she work as well or did

 

619

00:23:32,355 --> 00:23:35,294

she, was she, did she have a career or was

she kind of focused on the kids at home?

 

620

00:23:35,685 --> 00:23:39,375

Annalise Basso: She was a computer

engineer and then she put her career

 

621

00:23:39,375 --> 00:23:41,145

in hold to become a full-time mother.

 

622

00:23:41,145 --> 00:23:48,524

And I mean, she's, she's really

smart as well, and she is

 

623

00:23:49,935 --> 00:23:54,284

where my dad was supporting us

logistically and financially.

 

624

00:23:54,315 --> 00:23:58,665

My mom was the boots on the

ground here in, uh, here in la.

 

625

00:23:58,905 --> 00:24:02,655

So while my dad stayed in St. Louis,

he continued working and he would

 

626

00:24:02,655 --> 00:24:04,784

come out and visit while he could.

 

627

00:24:05,534 --> 00:24:11,745

My mom was out here driving all of

us kids to auditions and I mean,

 

628

00:24:11,895 --> 00:24:14,685

three kids in the industry there.

 

629

00:24:14,685 --> 00:24:15,200

I mean, we didn't have.

 

630

00:24:16,125 --> 00:24:19,875

I remember she still had paper maps in

the car and we didn't have the garment.

 

631

00:24:19,965 --> 00:24:23,085

Like I remember when we would get a

Garmin, 'cause she's like, I just can't

 

632

00:24:23,085 --> 00:24:24,915

do it anymore because we were all going to

 

633

00:24:24,915 --> 00:24:25,245

Marc Preston: school.

 

634

00:24:25,275 --> 00:24:25,635

What was that?

 

635

00:24:25,635 --> 00:24:25,815

What was that thing?

 

636

00:24:25,815 --> 00:24:28,755

They had in la, in Dallas where I grew

up, they had something called Mapsco.

 

637

00:24:28,755 --> 00:24:31,935

In LA they had this thing,

it was a S spiral bound like.

 

638

00:24:32,465 --> 00:24:35,855

Book and it was laid out on a grid,

and then you could look up an address

 

639

00:24:35,855 --> 00:24:38,345

and you had to go to a certain

page and find the corresponding.

 

640

00:24:38,495 --> 00:24:39,425

There was a name for it.

 

641

00:24:39,425 --> 00:24:42,485

I know every, everybody seemed to

use that, you know, when they went

 

642

00:24:42,485 --> 00:24:44,915

for their au remember having to

drive around for your auditions.

 

643

00:24:45,274 --> 00:24:47,254

Now, did you live, did you have an

opportunity to live at, what was it

 

644

00:24:47,254 --> 00:24:49,325

called that the Oakwood whatever that uh,

 

645

00:24:49,325 --> 00:24:49,865

Annalise Basso: yes.

 

646

00:24:49,895 --> 00:24:50,764

Yes, I was there.

 

647

00:24:50,945 --> 00:24:52,055

Marc Preston: You did awesome.

 

648

00:24:52,235 --> 00:24:54,845

See, I envy I've, I've asked

a few folks, they're like, no,

 

649

00:24:54,845 --> 00:24:56,225

I had some friends over there.

 

650

00:24:56,615 --> 00:25:00,635

To me, it would be so much fun as a kid

to be living in a place with a bunch

 

651

00:25:00,635 --> 00:25:02,435

of other kids doing this odd thing.

 

652

00:25:02,629 --> 00:25:04,805

You, you got a tribe around you, you know?

 

653

00:25:04,805 --> 00:25:04,806

Mm-hmm.

 

654

00:25:04,870 --> 00:25:09,004

And so what was it like living there

that this, for those who, you know,

 

655

00:25:09,004 --> 00:25:09,815

if you're listening, don't know.

 

656

00:25:09,815 --> 00:25:13,955

It's basically an apartment complex,

which is populated, which is mostly

 

657

00:25:13,955 --> 00:25:15,305

furnished, if I'm not mistaken.

 

658

00:25:15,305 --> 00:25:18,875

And it's just kind of populated by

people in the industry coming out for.

 

659

00:25:19,140 --> 00:25:21,540

Pilot season or whatever, you know, or

 

660

00:25:21,900 --> 00:25:22,140

Annalise Basso: mm-hmm.

 

661

00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,390

Marc Preston: But I gotta, I

gotta know, what is it like living

 

662

00:25:24,390 --> 00:25:25,590

there with a bunch of other kids?

 

663

00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,650

Annalise Basso: Well, you said

tribe, and if it is a tribe,

 

664

00:25:28,650 --> 00:25:30,000

it's more like Lord of applies.

 

665

00:25:30,990 --> 00:25:31,860

Like, oh, really?

 

666

00:25:31,860 --> 00:25:31,920

Yeah.

 

667

00:25:32,790 --> 00:25:34,590

Marc Preston: I thought it'd be a

little bit more chill than that, but,

 

668

00:25:34,590 --> 00:25:36,270

so y'all are like, okay, I gotcha.

 

669

00:25:36,300 --> 00:25:37,230

Yeah, I mean, it's,

 

670

00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,640

Annalise Basso: it's very competitive

and it was, everybody has their,

 

671

00:25:41,790 --> 00:25:47,490

you know, cliques and I, I mean,

it's, the Oakwood was a wild place.

 

672

00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:48,300

It was a wild place,

 

673

00:25:48,300 --> 00:25:48,540

Marc Preston: really.

 

674

00:25:48,570 --> 00:25:48,840

Okay.

 

675

00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,360

I didn't envision it being a

wild place, so it was a bunch of

 

676

00:25:51,360 --> 00:25:54,900

like, you know, prepubescent kids

talking and the street stuff.

 

677

00:25:54,930 --> 00:25:57,870

See, that to me would be odd being at

the pool and having a bunch of little

 

678

00:25:57,870 --> 00:25:59,640

kids talking industry talk, you know?

 

679

00:25:59,645 --> 00:25:59,755

Mm-hmm.

 

680

00:25:59,855 --> 00:26:01,740

But what made it wild for you?

 

681

00:26:02,340 --> 00:26:02,550

Annalise Basso: Wild?

 

682

00:26:03,300 --> 00:26:03,900

Because were there like

 

683

00:26:03,900 --> 00:26:06,120

Marc Preston: parties, were

there things going into the pool?

 

684

00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:10,230

I mean, what was, or was it

just, uh, a lot of gossiping, a

 

685

00:26:10,230 --> 00:26:11,910

lot of, uh, drama kind of stuff.

 

686

00:26:12,375 --> 00:26:15,254

Annalise Basso: It was mostly, yeah.

 

687

00:26:15,285 --> 00:26:19,965

I mean, I remember these epic

games of, uh, what was it, sardines

 

688

00:26:20,145 --> 00:26:23,325

where we would play, I mean,

this is a huge apartment complex.

 

689

00:26:23,655 --> 00:26:29,475

And these kids, we would get

together and, uh, we would play

 

690

00:26:29,504 --> 00:26:31,155

s do you know the game sardines?

 

691

00:26:31,340 --> 00:26:31,940

I I was gonna

 

692

00:26:32,100 --> 00:26:34,275

Marc Preston: ask you what

sardines was or is, what is that?

 

693

00:26:34,514 --> 00:26:40,455

Annalise Basso: So you go, one person's

it, and you go and you try to find, uh,

 

694

00:26:40,514 --> 00:26:42,465

you, it's basically like hide and go seek.

 

695

00:26:42,975 --> 00:26:48,855

Only, uh, if you find someone,

I think you hide with them.

 

696

00:26:48,855 --> 00:26:54,315

I, it's been so long since I've played it,

so I, I mean, they were just epic games.

 

697

00:26:54,315 --> 00:26:56,025

And so there was comradery.

 

698

00:26:56,115 --> 00:26:57,465

At some points it's like.

 

699

00:26:58,215 --> 00:26:58,725

I don't know.

 

700

00:26:58,725 --> 00:27:03,615

I, when I say wild, I just mean we

would have these karaoke nights too.

 

701

00:27:03,675 --> 00:27:08,715

The, it was just filled with like stage

kids, stage parents, ah, and all the drama

 

702

00:27:08,715 --> 00:27:11,415

that that entails and karaoke nights.

 

703

00:27:11,745 --> 00:27:12,165

So wasn't like

 

704

00:27:12,165 --> 00:27:13,305

Marc Preston: any, like

bloodshed or anything.

 

705

00:27:13,305 --> 00:27:14,145

There was no bloodshed.

 

706

00:27:14,145 --> 00:27:15,495

It was just, you know, I gotcha.

 

707

00:27:15,510 --> 00:27:15,889

No, no, no.

 

708

00:27:16,245 --> 00:27:17,895

So the parents, of course, it definitely a

 

709

00:27:17,895 --> 00:27:18,105

Annalise Basso: hierarchy.

 

710

00:27:19,695 --> 00:27:23,504

Marc Preston: Well, here's the thing,

I, I, I, in coaching voiceover,

 

711

00:27:23,655 --> 00:27:26,445

uh, which I do, and I work with

some kids, you know, Disney channel

 

712

00:27:26,445 --> 00:27:27,705

kids occasionally, but mm-hmm.

 

713

00:27:27,945 --> 00:27:31,425

Um, you know, when you look at the young

kids whose parents are a little more,

 

714

00:27:31,425 --> 00:27:32,774

okay, this is their thing, it's cool.

 

715

00:27:32,895 --> 00:27:35,745

And then you have the parents that are

like living vicariously for their kids,

 

716

00:27:35,745 --> 00:27:38,024

the stage moms, you know, they kind of.

 

717

00:27:38,409 --> 00:27:40,090

They kind of scare me a little

bit, you know, 'cause they're

 

718

00:27:40,300 --> 00:27:41,590

living vicariously through the kid.

 

719

00:27:41,590 --> 00:27:41,770

Oh, scared.

 

720

00:27:42,264 --> 00:27:42,554

Yeah.

 

721

00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:48,129

You know, I was, uh, there was a show

on, on Netflix, uh, called, um, love.

 

722

00:27:48,129 --> 00:27:50,679

It was produced by a a, a Jet Appan.

 

723

00:27:51,159 --> 00:27:55,120

It was, um, actually, I think they

shot it at the Oakwood, uh, jet App's

 

724

00:27:55,389 --> 00:27:59,620

daughter played, um, a, a young actor

in a TV show, and the lead character,

 

725

00:27:59,620 --> 00:28:02,860

and I'm so sorry, I'm forgetting his

name, but he played an onset, uh, tutor.

 

726

00:28:03,220 --> 00:28:08,620

Mm. And it was like, you know, David Spade

played her father and her and an, I forgot

 

727

00:28:08,620 --> 00:28:11,230

who played her mother, but there was

this, this whole like, you know, 'cause

 

728

00:28:11,230 --> 00:28:12,699

there's a lot of money involved also.

 

729

00:28:12,699 --> 00:28:15,189

So it gets to be kind of weird

with like the parents, but the

 

730

00:28:15,189 --> 00:28:16,600

kids like, you know, I don't know.

 

731

00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,275

It's, you know, I'm kinda

glad I didn't have that money.

 

732

00:28:18,281 --> 00:28:19,990

Annalise Basso: Identity control.

 

733

00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:20,530

Identity.

 

734

00:28:20,530 --> 00:28:21,100

Marc Preston: Yeah.

 

735

00:28:21,159 --> 00:28:21,310

Yeah.

 

736

00:28:21,310 --> 00:28:21,639

Yeah.

 

737

00:28:21,645 --> 00:28:21,794

Mm-hmm.

 

738

00:28:22,270 --> 00:28:25,210

It sounds like you kind of escaped a lot

of that though, so that's, that's good.

 

739

00:28:25,554 --> 00:28:25,875

Annalise Basso: I did.

 

740

00:28:25,975 --> 00:28:31,060

And you know, I mean, my mother was

a, a stage mother in the best way.

 

741

00:28:31,179 --> 00:28:32,470

I, I mean, she.

 

742

00:28:33,315 --> 00:28:41,385

She was relentless when it came to

paving the path for my, my brother and

 

743

00:28:41,385 --> 00:28:45,705

my sister and I, and it's not easy.

 

744

00:28:45,855 --> 00:28:49,155

I, it's not easy being a kid out

here, but it's also not easy being

 

745

00:28:49,155 --> 00:28:53,925

a parent because ultimately, I mean,

you're the one when your child is

 

746

00:28:53,925 --> 00:28:57,975

underage to make the decision, who

is your child going to work with?

 

747

00:28:57,975 --> 00:29:00,195

What sets are they going to be on?

 

748

00:29:00,195 --> 00:29:04,515

And, um, what projects are good

for them, not only as an artist,

 

749

00:29:04,515 --> 00:29:05,955

but as just like a person.

 

750

00:29:06,675 --> 00:29:06,765

Mm-hmm.

 

751

00:29:07,065 --> 00:29:13,575

I, I mean, that's why I love, I I had to

have a couple years that just expanded

 

752

00:29:13,575 --> 00:29:19,245

my, my gratitude for the career that

I've had this far because it's easy to

 

753

00:29:19,245 --> 00:29:22,365

look back and be like, a lot of, a lot

of the times people ask me, well, don't

 

754

00:29:22,365 --> 00:29:23,895

you wish you had a normal childhood?

 

755

00:29:24,525 --> 00:29:30,255

And sometimes I look at how much time I

was actually able to spend at school and

 

756

00:29:30,255 --> 00:29:32,175

how I was killing myself on set trying to.

 

757

00:29:32,550 --> 00:29:38,100

Get all of my work done because once you

take the GED as well, I mean the set,

 

758

00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,550

the production no longer recognizes you

as a minor and they don't have mm-hmm.

 

759

00:29:41,550 --> 00:29:43,860

Provide a set tutor.

 

760

00:29:43,860 --> 00:29:47,100

They don't have to build in

time for your schooling on set.

 

761

00:29:47,100 --> 00:29:48,495

So Really, I mean, even if you're under

 

762

00:29:48,735 --> 00:29:51,030

Marc Preston: 18, they, they,

they like, they don't have to

 

763

00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,735

really, I didn't even, yeah.

 

764

00:29:52,740 --> 00:29:53,430

I never knew that.

 

765

00:29:53,460 --> 00:29:56,670

Now are you still, are the rules

still like they're limited in

 

766

00:29:56,670 --> 00:29:57,840

how much they can work you?

 

767

00:29:58,140 --> 00:29:58,410

No.

 

768

00:29:58,410 --> 00:30:01,295

Or once you have your GED, it's

open season to really open season

 

769

00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,160

Annalise Basso: legal adult.

 

770

00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:06,690

So I was, I was working adult hours,

I was taking also advanced course

 

771

00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:12,660

like APS and stuff in, in high school

and I didn't have a tutor and it was

 

772

00:30:12,660 --> 00:30:16,650

just, it was really difficult and

it pushed me to my, to my limits.

 

773

00:30:16,650 --> 00:30:21,780

But I'm also, I don't know, I think

suffering and those moments where

 

774

00:30:21,780 --> 00:30:23,520

you get to push yourself past.

 

775

00:30:24,510 --> 00:30:27,150

Push yourself beyond what you

think you're capable of and somehow

 

776

00:30:27,150 --> 00:30:32,550

stretch a 24 hour day to feel like,

I don't know, just break, break.

 

777

00:30:32,550 --> 00:30:36,720

The, the, the binds of time,

time is relative, right?

 

778

00:30:36,780 --> 00:30:36,870

Mm-hmm.

 

779

00:30:37,110 --> 00:30:39,925

I mean, I, we just blur,

believe me, I know that feeling.

 

780

00:30:40,875 --> 00:30:43,440

Marc Preston: It's just sort of like,

okay, how long till we just get this done?

 

781

00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:44,280

Are we in overtime?

 

782

00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:44,820

Fine.

 

783

00:30:44,850 --> 00:30:45,000

Okay.

 

784

00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,139

We just need to get this done.

 

785

00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,590

You know, the, the life of Chuck

though, I, I gotta, I gotta.

 

786

00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,110

Admit a little bit of, uh, casting envy.

 

787

00:30:52,530 --> 00:30:52,620

Mm-hmm.

 

788

00:30:52,860 --> 00:30:54,540

You know, you got to look,

work with Luke Skywalker.

 

789

00:30:54,540 --> 00:30:57,044

I think that's kind of

cool, you know, pretty cool.

 

790

00:30:57,050 --> 00:31:00,510

Um, the, uh, but also Nick

Offman, I, I gotta note, like,

 

791

00:31:00,510 --> 00:31:02,040

without giving anything away

 

792

00:31:02,340 --> 00:31:02,429

Annalise Basso: mm-hmm.

 

793

00:31:02,820 --> 00:31:06,360

Marc Preston: Generally, what's kind

of the premise and how did you plug

 

794

00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,649

in, uh, within the cast and, you know,

it's, it's, it's like even Matthew

 

795

00:31:10,649 --> 00:31:14,250

Lillard, you know, one of my exes

was, uh, she was like, is my ex-wife?

 

796

00:31:14,250 --> 00:31:15,479

She was like, you know, um.

 

797

00:31:15,775 --> 00:31:20,305

Only got one of them, but, uh, but

she was like, she was like, she, she's

 

798

00:31:20,305 --> 00:31:21,415

like, you remind me of Matthew Li.

 

799

00:31:21,415 --> 00:31:24,025

She had a crush on Matthew Lillard,

and she thought I looked sort of like

 

800

00:31:24,025 --> 00:31:27,445

him, which I don't see it, but I'm

like, every time I see Matthew Lillard,

 

801

00:31:27,450 --> 00:31:28,090

I'm going, I see it a little bit.

 

802

00:31:28,190 --> 00:31:28,610

Really?

 

803

00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:28,930

Yeah.

 

804

00:31:28,930 --> 00:31:29,130

Mm-hmm.

 

805

00:31:29,215 --> 00:31:29,275

Okay.

 

806

00:31:29,275 --> 00:31:33,775

Well she was al she was always just

like, she had a thing for him and, uh,

 

807

00:31:33,775 --> 00:31:37,045

she's like, oh, if you're gonna be acting

act in a movie with Matthew Lillard,

 

808

00:31:37,045 --> 00:31:38,245

you know, I was like, well, I'll try.

 

809

00:31:38,485 --> 00:31:38,755

You know?

 

810

00:31:39,295 --> 00:31:42,745

Um, but, but he's always been such

a cool, I mean, such a cool dude.

 

811

00:31:42,745 --> 00:31:43,045

I don't know.

 

812

00:31:43,105 --> 00:31:46,885

I just, it's a very intriguing cast,

like folks you wouldn't normally

 

813

00:31:46,885 --> 00:31:48,205

see showing up in a film together.

 

814

00:31:48,205 --> 00:31:50,365

But I'm really wanna know a little

bit more about it and kind of how

 

815

00:31:50,365 --> 00:31:52,135

you kinda, how you plugged into it.

 

816

00:31:52,945 --> 00:31:57,835

Annalise Basso: Well, it's about

this guy, Chuck and his wife.

 

817

00:31:57,835 --> 00:31:58,195

I'm kidding.

 

818

00:31:58,855 --> 00:32:00,295

No, it's, uh, there you go.

 

819

00:32:00,505 --> 00:32:01,135

Exactly.

 

820

00:32:01,525 --> 00:32:03,595

Uh, Chuck has.

 

821

00:32:04,740 --> 00:32:06,000

I think I'm allowed to say this.

 

822

00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:06,389

I don't know.

 

823

00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:06,870

We'll see.

 

824

00:32:06,870 --> 00:32:09,209

Ask, ask for forgiveness,

not for permission, right?

 

825

00:32:09,245 --> 00:32:09,659

I, I dunno.

 

826

00:32:10,260 --> 00:32:18,209

Um, so Chuck has cancer and it's

basically what his life looks like.

 

827

00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,620

What that, what those moments look like

right before you know, the end or is

 

828

00:32:22,620 --> 00:32:28,860

it the beginning or just what is it To

be human and experience the suffering

 

829

00:32:28,860 --> 00:32:30,540

and the joy and the hope of life.

 

830

00:32:30,540 --> 00:32:35,490

And it's really a movie about

hope and why, why we keep on, why

 

831

00:32:35,490 --> 00:32:39,149

we keep living despite suffering

and chaos and all of that.

 

832

00:32:39,389 --> 00:32:40,889

Just a reason to keep moving forward.

 

833

00:32:41,730 --> 00:32:41,939

Marc Preston: Yeah.

 

834

00:32:41,939 --> 00:32:43,199

That's, that's kinda life right there.

 

835

00:32:43,199 --> 00:32:46,560

You know, certain things happen, positive,

negative, you start seeing things

 

836

00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,480

through a different prism, you know?

 

837

00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:48,570

Mm-hmm.

 

838

00:32:48,810 --> 00:32:51,659

Like just, and that's the,

to me of acting movies, uh.

 

839

00:32:52,034 --> 00:32:55,905

Uh, our films and, and TV is you get

to live vicariously through other

 

840

00:32:55,905 --> 00:32:58,485

people's situations or at least

contemplate something and mm-hmm.

 

841

00:32:58,725 --> 00:33:02,685

I think, you know, aspirationally maybe

would make us more empathetic as humans,

 

842

00:33:02,685 --> 00:33:05,955

but, you know, according to Elon Musk,

that's a weakness, which it's not.

 

843

00:33:06,345 --> 00:33:07,905

You know the heck with that guy.

 

844

00:33:08,445 --> 00:33:11,564

You know, he knocks the pictures

off my wife, he, they, they

 

845

00:33:11,564 --> 00:33:13,335

shoot off his, uh, SpaceX rock.

 

846

00:33:13,335 --> 00:33:14,895

It's about six miles south of me here.

 

847

00:33:14,895 --> 00:33:17,804

So whenever, oh boy, Sonic boom,

the thing comes down, like the

 

848

00:33:17,804 --> 00:33:18,855

picture are rattling on the.

 

849

00:33:20,490 --> 00:33:21,420

Fucking Ilan.

 

850

00:33:21,930 --> 00:33:28,020

Um, so, you know, when have a dog at Pees

on the floor, 'cause it, it was so loud.

 

851

00:33:28,020 --> 00:33:30,870

It's kinda like, I'm like,

clean up pee going, damn Ilan.

 

852

00:33:31,230 --> 00:33:33,990

Um, it's a little sidetrack there.

 

853

00:33:34,555 --> 00:33:34,935

Oh no.

 

854

00:33:35,035 --> 00:33:35,495

So no.

 

855

00:33:36,155 --> 00:33:36,495

Oh no.

 

856

00:33:36,540 --> 00:33:37,200

True story.

 

857

00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:37,440

Yeah.

 

858

00:33:37,470 --> 00:33:40,080

Um, well the only other time

is one time they set it off.

 

859

00:33:40,230 --> 00:33:42,570

They were shooting him off at

like, later on during the day.

 

860

00:33:42,570 --> 00:33:45,480

Now they used to be like at 7:00

AM and there's nothing like a 60

 

861

00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:46,980

pound dog landing on top of you.

 

862

00:33:47,010 --> 00:33:48,600

'cause he got scared

when he jumps up in bed.

 

863

00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,250

I'm like, oh God, you're a boom.

 

864

00:33:50,250 --> 00:33:50,970

And then a dog.

 

865

00:33:50,970 --> 00:33:54,150

It's like, fucking Elon

or, or the first episode

 

866

00:33:54,150 --> 00:33:55,380

Annalise Basso: of Last of Us, you know?

 

867

00:33:55,380 --> 00:33:57,510

Is it the end of the world

or is it just a rock?

 

868

00:33:57,565 --> 00:33:58,135

Marc Preston: Yeah, yeah.

 

869

00:33:58,140 --> 00:33:58,410

Yeah.

 

870

00:33:58,710 --> 00:33:59,580

Oh, that's a great show.

 

871

00:33:59,580 --> 00:33:59,820

That's great.

 

872

00:33:59,820 --> 00:34:02,970

What are you watching right now, by

the way, as far as, uh, films, tv?

 

873

00:34:02,970 --> 00:34:04,590

What, what's kind of

grabbing your attention?

 

874

00:34:05,010 --> 00:34:07,410

Annalise Basso: Well,

okay, I keep saying that.

 

875

00:34:07,410 --> 00:34:07,470

Whoa.

 

876

00:34:09,060 --> 00:34:12,960

I, I'm not good at watching things.

 

877

00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:16,530

I'm really not good at staying

plugged in, but I realize.

 

878

00:34:17,445 --> 00:34:22,275

I, I, I'm getting, it's, I have to make

a conscious effort to, you know, watch,

 

879

00:34:22,395 --> 00:34:26,415

watch what everybody's watching, and it's

a problem because there's so much content.

 

880

00:34:26,590 --> 00:34:26,880

Yeah.

 

881

00:34:26,885 --> 00:34:26,925

Yeah.

 

882

00:34:26,955 --> 00:34:31,575

And I, I don't know, I, whenever I

wanna watch something, I text my friend

 

883

00:34:31,575 --> 00:34:36,554

Nicholas Goldstein, who we're writing

together right now, and, uh, I just ask

 

884

00:34:36,554 --> 00:34:39,014

him what, what to, what I should watch.

 

885

00:34:39,315 --> 00:34:41,145

And he's made some really good

recommendations, but they're

 

886

00:34:41,145 --> 00:34:42,315

not, they're not current.

 

887

00:34:42,825 --> 00:34:43,635

Uh, yeah.

 

888

00:34:43,665 --> 00:34:45,135

Like, I, I, I don't know.

 

889

00:34:45,135 --> 00:34:48,045

He recommended, uh, what

was it, what was it?

 

890

00:34:48,045 --> 00:34:54,435

Was it, it was this Austrian

movie called Rev, and it's, I

 

891

00:34:54,465 --> 00:34:56,025

think, a directorial masterpiece.

 

892

00:34:56,025 --> 00:35:00,285

And I was never one of those

to be like, oh, film cinema.

 

893

00:35:00,285 --> 00:35:02,055

I mean, I, I love Jurassic Park.

 

894

00:35:02,085 --> 00:35:03,195

I love The Matrix.

 

895

00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:03,920

I love mm-hmm.

 

896

00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,135

I, I don't know, I, I love lots of movies.

 

897

00:35:06,135 --> 00:35:09,495

I'm not, I'm not a snob, but I am picky.

 

898

00:35:10,605 --> 00:35:14,115

Marc Preston: Uh, so am I. So am I,

and I, I, I, I really, my favorite

 

899

00:35:14,115 --> 00:35:17,865

thing to do is to happen across an

independent film, which is just.

 

900

00:35:18,465 --> 00:35:19,455

You know, just kind of cool.

 

901

00:35:19,455 --> 00:35:21,045

He is like, I'm, how did I miss this?

 

902

00:35:21,450 --> 00:35:23,775

I, I I, my drives my daughter Emma nuts.

 

903

00:35:23,775 --> 00:35:25,305

I got all the streamers.

 

904

00:35:25,485 --> 00:35:25,605

Annalise Basso: Mm-hmm.

 

905

00:35:26,055 --> 00:35:28,545

Marc Preston: Besides the stuff I need

to watch for, you know, doing this.

 

906

00:35:28,845 --> 00:35:32,385

I, I'm going through 'em going, part of

me is like, I got all these damn channels.

 

907

00:35:32,385 --> 00:35:34,875

I mean, all these things,

I can't find anything.

 

908

00:35:35,265 --> 00:35:38,025

And the one thing I think we're

missing is great comedies.

 

909

00:35:38,055 --> 00:35:40,785

You know, like we don't have

nearly as many as we used to.

 

910

00:35:41,145 --> 00:35:42,735

Like I mentioned Judd AAL before.

 

911

00:35:42,735 --> 00:35:46,275

I like those goofy, just absurd,

like anchor manish kind of stuff.

 

912

00:35:46,275 --> 00:35:49,005

See, you know, when the world

gets a little too serious,

 

913

00:35:49,005 --> 00:35:49,995

I just wanna watch comedies.

 

914

00:35:49,995 --> 00:35:53,445

But a kinda like you, I have a

hard time staying kind of zoned in

 

915

00:35:53,985 --> 00:35:56,535

because I'm always kinda like working

on my laptop or doing something.

 

916

00:35:56,540 --> 00:35:56,610

Mm-hmm.

 

917

00:35:56,730 --> 00:35:59,625

So I'm kind of like halfway

paying attention and if I really

 

918

00:35:59,625 --> 00:36:01,890

wanna see something, I gotta

go to the theater, you know?

 

919

00:36:01,890 --> 00:36:02,210

Yeah, yeah.

 

920

00:36:02,215 --> 00:36:03,675

Like, because I can't go anywhere else.

 

921

00:36:04,035 --> 00:36:05,565

Uh, like what did you grow up watching?

 

922

00:36:05,565 --> 00:36:08,415

Like what were, I don't wanna say

inspiration necessarily, but what were

 

923

00:36:08,415 --> 00:36:11,385

you watching where you're like, just

kind of grabbed your attention and kind

 

924

00:36:11,385 --> 00:36:14,595

of like became a spot on the timeline?

 

925

00:36:14,595 --> 00:36:17,295

If you remember back like, oh yeah,

I watched that movie when I was.

 

926

00:36:17,370 --> 00:36:18,930

This age or whatever.

 

927

00:36:19,380 --> 00:36:22,950

Annalise Basso: I mean, I, all

the Disney classics, like the, the

 

928

00:36:22,950 --> 00:36:25,710

classics, Cinderella, sleeping Beauty.

 

929

00:36:25,710 --> 00:36:28,950

I mean, I, I like the Princess movies

and Cinderella's one of my favorite

 

930

00:36:29,430 --> 00:36:36,810

princesses because I mean, just despite

enduring a whole lifetime of just abuse,

 

931

00:36:37,410 --> 00:36:41,430

she remains sweet and kind and hopeful.

 

932

00:36:41,430 --> 00:36:44,490

And, you know, I, I don't know.

 

933

00:36:44,490 --> 00:36:49,740

I think there's, it takes a great amount

of strength to be able to, to do that.

 

934

00:36:50,250 --> 00:36:52,380

Um, so I like her.

 

935

00:36:52,380 --> 00:36:53,279

I liked Cinderella.

 

936

00:36:53,279 --> 00:36:57,630

I liked, I, I remember watching

The Matrix with my family.

 

937

00:36:57,630 --> 00:37:04,170

I remember watching Gladiator and

the Patriot and just sweeping epic,

 

938

00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:10,455

hopeful movies that I. Going back

to how we, how we started in this.

 

939

00:37:10,455 --> 00:37:13,755

My sister was always directing

and creating the worlds that my

 

940

00:37:13,755 --> 00:37:16,425

brother and I would, would play in.

 

941

00:37:16,425 --> 00:37:16,515

Mm-hmm.

 

942

00:37:17,475 --> 00:37:19,905

I mean, I was younger than them.

 

943

00:37:19,905 --> 00:37:24,045

My, my sister's 32 and my

brother's 30 right now.

 

944

00:37:24,045 --> 00:37:28,635

So I, I'm, I was too young to really

play in their game, so most of the

 

945

00:37:28,635 --> 00:37:30,075

time I'd just be watching them.

 

946

00:37:30,250 --> 00:37:30,410

Marc Preston: Yeah.

 

947

00:37:30,630 --> 00:37:33,410

You didn't have any voting rights

you were justt participating in?

 

948

00:37:33,450 --> 00:37:38,085

Annalise Basso: I didn't voting rights,

but, um, you know, I learned a lot from

 

949

00:37:38,085 --> 00:37:43,215

the way that my siblings told stories

and my dad was there with a video camera.

 

950

00:37:43,215 --> 00:37:44,055

He documented.

 

951

00:37:44,609 --> 00:37:45,279

Everything.

 

952

00:37:45,285 --> 00:37:45,524

Everything.

 

953

00:37:46,004 --> 00:37:46,395

That's

 

954

00:37:46,395 --> 00:37:46,875

Marc Preston: awesome.

 

955

00:37:46,875 --> 00:37:47,895

That's, yeah.

 

956

00:37:47,895 --> 00:37:51,075

'cause back when you were, uh, younger,

before we all had cameras on our phones.

 

957

00:37:51,075 --> 00:37:53,564

I mean, the kids don't realize,

you know, it's actually kind cool.

 

958

00:37:53,564 --> 00:37:56,774

You watch an old movie from like

the eighties or maybe early nineties

 

959

00:37:56,805 --> 00:37:57,975

maybe, and they're always walking.

 

960

00:37:57,975 --> 00:38:00,825

There's somebody walking around

with a video camera that's like the

 

961

00:38:00,825 --> 00:38:02,384

size of a suitcase, it seems like.

 

962

00:38:02,384 --> 00:38:02,386

Mm-hmm.

 

963

00:38:02,392 --> 00:38:03,794

You know, so it's cool.

 

964

00:38:03,794 --> 00:38:08,084

You got, I, I just, I'm glad I grew up

without a phone to document everything.

 

965

00:38:08,205 --> 00:38:08,294

Mm-hmm.

 

966

00:38:08,564 --> 00:38:11,205

Uh, but I also wish I

had a phone to document.

 

967

00:38:11,205 --> 00:38:12,285

There's certain things I'd love.

 

968

00:38:12,314 --> 00:38:16,035

Like, it's more like family

stuff or like, you know, what

 

969

00:38:16,035 --> 00:38:17,115

was I up to with my friends?

 

970

00:38:17,115 --> 00:38:18,645

What kind of a knucklehead

was I when I was younger?

 

971

00:38:18,651 --> 00:38:18,799

Yeah.

 

972

00:38:18,799 --> 00:38:19,845

You know, that kind of a thing.

 

973

00:38:19,995 --> 00:38:20,774

No, my mom always

 

974

00:38:20,774 --> 00:38:24,555

Annalise Basso: had a a, a camera and

my dad always had the video camera.

 

975

00:38:25,154 --> 00:38:28,424

It's, it was, it was inter like

they, my mom created these incredible

 

976

00:38:28,455 --> 00:38:31,035

scrapbooks of just our entire childhoods.

 

977

00:38:31,035 --> 00:38:34,935

And then my dad would be there actually

capturing it and I don't know, just the

 

978

00:38:34,935 --> 00:38:39,615

actual home videos, putting in the VHS

or the tape and then watching that back.

 

979

00:38:39,615 --> 00:38:41,625

It's, I don't know, having something.

 

980

00:38:42,285 --> 00:38:44,654

Tactile instead of digital.

 

981

00:38:45,285 --> 00:38:45,375

Mm-hmm.

 

982

00:38:45,615 --> 00:38:48,524

I mean, sometimes I look at the

10,000 pictures I have on my phone

 

983

00:38:48,674 --> 00:38:52,665

and it's like, yeah, I have all these

memories, but I don't know, if the

 

984

00:38:52,665 --> 00:38:56,805

cloud were to disappear tomorrow, then

all of these memories would be gone.

 

985

00:38:56,805 --> 00:38:58,185

And I think there's a lot Yeah.

 

986

00:38:58,185 --> 00:38:58,725

Of value.

 

987

00:38:58,725 --> 00:38:59,145

And I, I

 

988

00:38:59,145 --> 00:39:00,975

Marc Preston: was watching an

episode of, I mean, way back

 

989

00:39:00,975 --> 00:39:02,535

when I watched Walking Dead.

 

990

00:39:02,595 --> 00:39:03,944

I kind stopped watching after a few years.

 

991

00:39:03,944 --> 00:39:05,529

It, it, sorry.

 

992

00:39:06,029 --> 00:39:10,125

I'm well, well, you, I remember

one of the characters said, I

 

993

00:39:10,125 --> 00:39:12,254

don't, they had a child who died.

 

994

00:39:12,435 --> 00:39:15,015

Uh, they said, I don't, I can't

remember what they looked like, you

 

995

00:39:15,015 --> 00:39:18,044

know, 'cause you know, you'd have

pictures, but everything was digital.

 

996

00:39:18,044 --> 00:39:19,065

So that was all gone.

 

997

00:39:19,065 --> 00:39:19,484

I was like, wow.

 

998

00:39:19,484 --> 00:39:22,154

That's kinda what, it's funny, I've

got a photo album sitting right

 

999

00:39:22,154 --> 00:39:26,294

next to me here of all the pictures

I'm needing to scan, uh, in color.

 

1000

00:39:26,294 --> 00:39:26,685

Correct.

 

1001

00:39:26,685 --> 00:39:28,665

'cause some of 'em gotten that

little yellowness going on.

 

1002

00:39:28,815 --> 00:39:28,904

Annalise Basso: Mm-hmm.

 

1003

00:39:29,145 --> 00:39:29,147

Marc Preston: But yeah.

 

1004

00:39:29,265 --> 00:39:31,154

Have y'all scanned all these old pictures?

 

1005

00:39:31,154 --> 00:39:32,865

You know, have y'all, have you done that?

 

1006

00:39:34,035 --> 00:39:37,004

Annalise Basso: My mom digitized

all of our home videos.

 

1007

00:39:37,500 --> 00:39:39,300

So those are, those are safe.

 

1008

00:39:39,630 --> 00:39:42,870

I mean, 'cause over time the

film deteriorates and all that.

 

1009

00:39:42,870 --> 00:39:42,960

Mm-hmm.

 

1010

00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:48,210

So my mom digitized all the home

videos and then the pictures.

 

1011

00:39:49,470 --> 00:39:51,060

She still has the photo albums.

 

1012

00:39:51,060 --> 00:39:53,850

I don't think those have been,

I think she's printing photos,

 

1013

00:39:53,850 --> 00:39:55,259

not scanning them, which,

 

1014

00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,210

you know, she wants to have

the actual, the actual thing.

 

1015

00:40:00,630 --> 00:40:03,900

Marc Preston: Because that's, that's

my new thing is I have all this tape.

 

1016

00:40:03,900 --> 00:40:07,560

I'm like, I need, I need to digitize this

before this stuff gets wonky, you know?

 

1017

00:40:07,620 --> 00:40:07,950

Yeah.

 

1018

00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,375

You know, one of the things I like to do

is something I'd call my seven questions.

 

1019

00:40:18,525 --> 00:40:21,255

Just my little random bit of

fun to kind of find out little,

 

1020

00:40:21,645 --> 00:40:23,025

little, little extra nuggets.

 

1021

00:40:23,025 --> 00:40:26,055

And I always say this, I always

talk food at least once in my show.

 

1022

00:40:26,055 --> 00:40:27,165

I'm a big food nerd, you know.

 

1023

00:40:27,285 --> 00:40:27,315

Oh,

 

1024

00:40:27,315 --> 00:40:27,615

Annalise Basso: great.

 

1025

00:40:27,705 --> 00:40:28,605

I'll talk food any day.

 

1026

00:40:29,535 --> 00:40:30,075

Marc Preston: Awesome.

 

1027

00:40:30,105 --> 00:40:30,615

Well, here we go.

 

1028

00:40:30,615 --> 00:40:34,335

Well, the first question I got is,

what is your favorite comfort food?

 

1029

00:40:34,755 --> 00:40:35,235

Bad day.

 

1030

00:40:35,235 --> 00:40:36,465

Good day doesn't make a difference.

 

1031

00:40:36,465 --> 00:40:38,115

It lands every time for you.

 

1032

00:40:39,735 --> 00:40:41,115

Annalise Basso: I have

to be honest, right?

 

1033

00:40:41,565 --> 00:40:42,225

Absolutely.

 

1034

00:40:42,375 --> 00:40:42,645

Marc Preston: Yeah.

 

1035

00:40:44,025 --> 00:40:44,235

Annalise Basso: Okay.

 

1036

00:40:44,235 --> 00:40:47,715

So ever since moving back to la,

there is an air wand that's two,

 

1037

00:40:48,015 --> 00:40:51,435

like two blocks away from me and I

 

1038

00:40:52,005 --> 00:40:53,205

Marc Preston: That's that fan,

that's that fancy grocery where

 

1039

00:40:53,205 --> 00:40:54,615

everything, it's absurd, pricey.

 

1040

00:40:54,825 --> 00:40:55,995

Annalise Basso: It's absurd.

 

1041

00:40:56,475 --> 00:41:02,865

But they have this buffalo cauliflower

that is just, I'm, I'm addicted to it.

 

1042

00:41:02,865 --> 00:41:04,935

And now I've built in.

 

1043

00:41:05,670 --> 00:41:10,530

A part of my budget where I'm

sacrificing other things in life so

 

1044

00:41:10,530 --> 00:41:12,510

that I can accommodate this cravings.

 

1045

00:41:12,810 --> 00:41:16,500

Marc Preston: Really, I gotta be honest

with you, you know, and people busted

 

1046

00:41:16,500 --> 00:41:19,980

on me for going Whole Foods, you know,

well, whole Foods got a little weird after

 

1047

00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,390

what's its name, bought it from Amazon.

 

1048

00:41:21,630 --> 00:41:24,750

But, uh, or it's not really the

same, but I, I'm like, I like

 

1049

00:41:24,750 --> 00:41:25,830

stuff that's relatively healthy.

 

1050

00:41:25,830 --> 00:41:27,270

I like good selection,

you know, that kind thing.

 

1051

00:41:27,275 --> 00:41:27,385

Yeah.

 

1052

00:41:27,385 --> 00:41:27,425

But

 

1053

00:41:27,425 --> 00:41:29,585

Annalise Basso: I remember stuff that

makes me feel good as well as tastes good.

 

1054

00:41:29,935 --> 00:41:30,425

Exactly.

 

1055

00:41:30,630 --> 00:41:30,780

Marc Preston: Yeah.

 

1056

00:41:30,780 --> 00:41:35,010

I was, we, I was at a, uh, uh, an awards

show in LA and a good friend of mine, she

 

1057

00:41:35,010 --> 00:41:37,350

and I were, uh, I love going to Canter.

 

1058

00:41:37,350 --> 00:41:39,060

Cantor Deli is my jam.

 

1059

00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:43,200

It's, I talk about it regularly on the

show, but, uh, I always love going there.

 

1060

00:41:43,650 --> 00:41:46,230

But, uh, but she was like, ah, you

know, let's just run back over to

 

1061

00:41:46,230 --> 00:41:47,220

my place and just kinda hang out.

 

1062

00:41:47,220 --> 00:41:48,570

Let's go get some stuff from the grocery.

 

1063

00:41:48,570 --> 00:41:49,290

I'm like, all right, cool.

 

1064

00:41:49,290 --> 00:41:50,010

That's, that's fine.

 

1065

00:41:50,010 --> 00:41:51,120

You know, my heart's a little broken.

 

1066

00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,010

I really want a Matza

ball soup, but I digress.

 

1067

00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,880

So we went to this Air one and all

I remember, I'm, I'm walking around.

 

1068

00:41:57,825 --> 00:42:00,075

And, you know, stolen my suit and

everything, you know, from the thing

 

1069

00:42:00,075 --> 00:42:02,805

and just kinda walking around and

had to put my reading glasses on.

 

1070

00:42:02,805 --> 00:42:04,395

'cause I was like, is it

really that expensive?

 

1071

00:42:04,425 --> 00:42:05,205

Are you kidding me?

 

1072

00:42:05,205 --> 00:42:05,265

Yeah.

 

1073

00:42:05,265 --> 00:42:06,900

It was like, what is it?

 

1074

00:42:06,905 --> 00:42:09,795

It, and the thing is we got like a

little, uh uh, I remember getting

 

1075

00:42:09,795 --> 00:42:12,435

like a sandwich, like a little wrap.

 

1076

00:42:12,855 --> 00:42:14,715

It was like 12, 13 bucks or something.

 

1077

00:42:14,715 --> 00:42:15,106

It was like, yep.

 

1078

00:42:15,300 --> 00:42:16,065

I had, sorry.

 

1079

00:42:16,365 --> 00:42:18,045

But anyway, but yeah, I know

what you're talking about.

 

1080

00:42:18,045 --> 00:42:21,585

But yeah, if you have something

that's your jam, make no excuses.

 

1081

00:42:21,585 --> 00:42:22,605

If it brings you joy,

 

1082

00:42:23,085 --> 00:42:25,785

Annalise Basso: if that's not

around though, but just loaf of

 

1083

00:42:25,785 --> 00:42:28,335

sourdough and, and bread, or sorry.

 

1084

00:42:28,335 --> 00:42:28,905

And butter.

 

1085

00:42:29,505 --> 00:42:30,300

Sourdough and butter.

 

1086

00:42:30,300 --> 00:42:30,555

You know what?

 

1087

00:42:31,154 --> 00:42:32,384

Marc Preston: You know

what's really good sourdough?

 

1088

00:42:32,384 --> 00:42:33,585

If you get like a really good one.

 

1089

00:42:33,735 --> 00:42:37,095

Uh, do, uh, I like to get like

olive oil and kinda crush up a

 

1090

00:42:37,095 --> 00:42:39,975

little bit of garlic and like spit

some, uh, well, you're Italian.

 

1091

00:42:39,975 --> 00:42:42,884

Yeah, you got his Italian roots, you know,

and dip the bread in there, you know.

 

1092

00:42:43,305 --> 00:42:44,025

Oh, that's good.

 

1093

00:42:44,085 --> 00:42:44,625

You can tell.

 

1094

00:42:44,805 --> 00:42:45,375

I always do.

 

1095

00:42:45,465 --> 00:42:48,525

I always typically do this before

I've had lunch, so I just go

 

1096

00:42:48,525 --> 00:42:50,145

and go off on a tangent on food.

 

1097

00:42:50,955 --> 00:42:54,045

My next question, if you're gonna sit

down and talk story, you got three

 

1098

00:42:54,045 --> 00:42:58,035

people, uh, you and three people,

and oh, you're gonna have coffee

 

1099

00:42:58,035 --> 00:43:01,185

and just talk for an hour, living or

not, who would those three people be?

 

1100

00:43:01,185 --> 00:43:03,194

You would like to have

sitting down with you?

 

1101

00:43:03,585 --> 00:43:05,625

Annalise Basso: Rod Sterling, uh, rod,

 

1102

00:43:05,775 --> 00:43:07,185

Marc Preston: er, you're

the first Rod Sterling.

 

1103

00:43:07,335 --> 00:43:09,345

I could ask you though, why Rod Sterling?

 

1104

00:43:09,674 --> 00:43:10,785

Annalise Basso: Twilight Zone.

 

1105

00:43:11,115 --> 00:43:11,775

Twilight Zone.

 

1106

00:43:11,835 --> 00:43:20,235

Just how he was able to tell

so many stories and just he

 

1107

00:43:20,235 --> 00:43:21,404

created a whole universe.

 

1108

00:43:22,170 --> 00:43:25,140

And he was fearless in his storytelling.

 

1109

00:43:25,140 --> 00:43:28,890

He broke so many rules

and he didn't preach ever.

 

1110

00:43:29,220 --> 00:43:30,210

He did it in a, but

 

1111

00:43:30,210 --> 00:43:32,190

Marc Preston: there was a

lot of social commentary.

 

1112

00:43:32,670 --> 00:43:35,940

And his daughter is, uh, posting a

lot of, like, his old quotes, and

 

1113

00:43:35,940 --> 00:43:40,470

I've really kind of gotten into,

he was really dialed into the human

 

1114

00:43:40,500 --> 00:43:41,820

condition, or whatever you wanna call it.

 

1115

00:43:41,825 --> 00:43:41,855

Yes.

 

1116

00:43:41,875 --> 00:43:46,020

But like some of her shortcomings, he, he

understood and, and could tell stories in

 

1117

00:43:46,020 --> 00:43:50,460

a very, in a digestible way where people

are like, oh, I didn't see it like that.

 

1118

00:43:50,550 --> 00:43:51,630

Annalise Basso: You know,

that's, that's great.

 

1119

00:43:51,630 --> 00:43:53,070

He told stories, but he,

but he never preached.

 

1120

00:43:53,070 --> 00:43:55,860

And that's something that I really

respect and that's something that I

 

1121

00:43:55,860 --> 00:43:57,240

have to be aware of as a storyteller.

 

1122

00:43:57,240 --> 00:44:00,390

It's like, oh, as much as I

wanna put what I wanna say, he,

 

1123

00:44:00,450 --> 00:44:04,710

he served story and the truth.

 

1124

00:44:04,710 --> 00:44:12,150

He served the truth and he was able

to, to, uh, pursue the truth of what

 

1125

00:44:12,150 --> 00:44:16,710

the story needed as opposed to what

he wanted to say, if that makes sense.

 

1126

00:44:16,710 --> 00:44:16,711

Mm-hmm.

 

1127

00:44:16,995 --> 00:44:20,610

Um, and there was, he had like,

just an incredible amount of.

 

1128

00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,160

Creative integrity, and

I see that in his work.

 

1129

00:44:23,310 --> 00:44:25,290

Marc Preston: It felt like that

he was on a mission to tell some

 

1130

00:44:25,290 --> 00:44:26,640

stories that made a difference.

 

1131

00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:26,730

Mm-hmm.

 

1132

00:44:26,790 --> 00:44:27,600

You know, I don't know.

 

1133

00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,450

But he's, you know, I didn't

have an appreciation for him

 

1134

00:44:30,450 --> 00:44:31,770

until I was very much an adult.

 

1135

00:44:31,770 --> 00:44:33,779

I mean, the full appreciation

till I was an adult.

 

1136

00:44:33,779 --> 00:44:37,230

But yeah, I'm, I've never had anybody

say Rod Sterling and that he, he's

 

1137

00:44:37,230 --> 00:44:38,759

gotta go on my shortlist now as well.

 

1138

00:44:38,759 --> 00:44:40,799

I never even thought about

having Rod Sterling, but

 

1139

00:44:41,069 --> 00:44:41,339

Annalise Basso: yeah.

 

1140

00:44:41,430 --> 00:44:41,939

Yay.

 

1141

00:44:42,299 --> 00:44:42,839

Marc Preston: Very cool.

 

1142

00:44:42,839 --> 00:44:43,020

Very.

 

1143

00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,870

But for, for your age though,

I mean, I'm assuming, were your

 

1144

00:44:45,870 --> 00:44:47,339

parents watching the Twilight Zone?

 

1145

00:44:47,490 --> 00:44:49,919

Annalise Basso: We would watch

the Twilight Zone because there's

 

1146

00:44:49,919 --> 00:44:53,939

a Twilight Zone marathon that

happens every, uh, new Year's Eve.

 

1147

00:44:54,419 --> 00:44:56,430

They just play all the episodes, I think.

 

1148

00:44:56,430 --> 00:45:00,210

I mean, they start at, I mean, they're,

I don't know, five, six seasons.

 

1149

00:45:00,210 --> 00:45:00,629

I forget.

 

1150

00:45:01,515 --> 00:45:03,405

But they play all the episodes.

 

1151

00:45:03,795 --> 00:45:07,665

I think starting like a week before New

Year's Day or two weeks, I don't know,

 

1152

00:45:07,845 --> 00:45:12,225

but it's just, it's a marathon and we

would turn it on New Year's Day, have

 

1153

00:45:12,225 --> 00:45:16,635

it, or New Year's Eve, have it on all day

and then have it on all New Year's Day

 

1154

00:45:18,315 --> 00:45:20,115

Marc Preston: Now you got

like, I can itch to go.

 

1155

00:45:20,415 --> 00:45:23,265

My son, I don't think has ever seen, he

would be the one that would be into it.

 

1156

00:45:23,265 --> 00:45:24,225

My, uh, 20-year-old.

 

1157

00:45:24,945 --> 00:45:26,355

Annalise Basso: Have

you ever read his plays?

 

1158

00:45:26,475 --> 00:45:28,125

'cause he was a playwright as well.

 

1159

00:45:29,265 --> 00:45:29,325

Marc Preston: No.

 

1160

00:45:29,325 --> 00:45:29,535

Yeah.

 

1161

00:45:29,685 --> 00:45:30,495

How did I not know that?

 

1162

00:45:30,495 --> 00:45:32,115

I didn't, I didn't know that Reem.

 

1163

00:45:32,240 --> 00:45:33,315

I did not know Heavyweight.

 

1164

00:45:33,705 --> 00:45:36,435

Annalise Basso: He has a play called

Requiem for a heavyweight, and I mean

 

1165

00:45:36,435 --> 00:45:40,725

it, he did, it was made into a movie,

but it started out as a play first.

 

1166

00:45:40,725 --> 00:45:44,715

And I think he also has

one called Patterns and.

 

1167

00:45:45,310 --> 00:45:48,495

I'm, I'm working my way through

them, but I really, yeah, rec

 

1168

00:45:48,495 --> 00:45:49,485

wing for a heavyweight is fun.

 

1169

00:45:49,815 --> 00:45:51,855

Marc Preston: I think it's wonderful

when you can kind of discover a thing

 

1170

00:45:51,855 --> 00:45:54,735

like, oh, this is something like,

with, with him and like, I'm kind

 

1171

00:45:54,735 --> 00:45:57,645

of getting into, it's one of those

things I was too young to appreciate,

 

1172

00:45:57,915 --> 00:45:59,025

you know, when I was much younger.

 

1173

00:45:59,025 --> 00:45:59,115

Mm-hmm.

 

1174

00:45:59,115 --> 00:46:01,395

But now I'm like, I'm enjoying

getting into his stuff.

 

1175

00:46:01,395 --> 00:46:04,605

So we got Rod Sterling sitting

down for a cup of coffee.

 

1176

00:46:04,605 --> 00:46:06,885

Who would be the other two

folks who you would enjoy?

 

1177

00:46:07,185 --> 00:46:09,170

Annalise Basso: CS Lewis and,

 

1178

00:46:11,430 --> 00:46:13,370

uh, ies?

 

1179

00:46:15,950 --> 00:46:18,255

Marc Preston: You like

a thinker over there?

 

1180

00:46:18,255 --> 00:46:18,975

You're like, wow.

 

1181

00:46:18,975 --> 00:46:19,216

That's no,

 

1182

00:46:19,221 --> 00:46:20,235

Annalise Basso: wait, no, no.

 

1183

00:46:20,235 --> 00:46:20,595

Sorry.

 

1184

00:46:20,595 --> 00:46:21,435

I, sorry.

 

1185

00:46:21,465 --> 00:46:22,185

Sorry, buddy.

 

1186

00:46:22,395 --> 00:46:23,865

You ripd, I gotta kick you out.

 

1187

00:46:24,015 --> 00:46:24,495

Shakespeare.

 

1188

00:46:25,305 --> 00:46:25,785

Shakespeare.

 

1189

00:46:26,205 --> 00:46:27,015

Shakespeare, Shakespeare.

 

1190

00:46:27,645 --> 00:46:30,075

Sterling Shakespeare and CS Lewis.

 

1191

00:46:30,255 --> 00:46:30,465

Marc Preston: Yeah.

 

1192

00:46:30,465 --> 00:46:31,455

Shakespeare would be interesting.

 

1193

00:46:31,455 --> 00:46:31,605

Go.

 

1194

00:46:31,605 --> 00:46:31,725

Okay.

 

1195

00:46:31,725 --> 00:46:34,995

Do you really talk like you write,

you know, or It is like, it'd be

 

1196

00:46:34,995 --> 00:46:38,175

really funny if Shakespeare like this

chill, relaxed guy is like, you know,

 

1197

00:46:38,175 --> 00:46:39,945

using like really common language.

 

1198

00:46:39,945 --> 00:46:42,495

And only his writings

are like Shakespeare.

 

1199

00:46:42,495 --> 00:46:46,095

That's he, he's one of the reasons

why he got scared of stage, you know?

 

1200

00:46:46,155 --> 00:46:46,635

But Oh,

 

1201

00:46:46,635 --> 00:46:46,875

Annalise Basso: really?

 

1202

00:46:47,205 --> 00:46:47,985

Marc Preston: Memorizing me.

 

1203

00:46:48,165 --> 00:46:49,395

Memorizing a whole script.

 

1204

00:46:49,755 --> 00:46:50,445

Anybody listen to the show?

 

1205

00:46:50,445 --> 00:46:50,715

No.

 

1206

00:46:50,715 --> 00:46:54,045

Always says I can memorize

a few pages of a screenplay.

 

1207

00:46:54,555 --> 00:46:54,585

Annalise Basso: Mm.

 

1208

00:46:54,765 --> 00:46:55,545

Marc Preston: I can do that.

 

1209

00:46:55,785 --> 00:46:58,035

But a whole, I'm like, oh God no.

 

1210

00:46:58,035 --> 00:46:59,775

I don't know if I could, I

don't know if I could do that.

 

1211

00:46:59,775 --> 00:46:59,955

I'm

 

1212

00:47:00,975 --> 00:47:02,205

Annalise Basso: you, I think

I could, I could imagine you

 

1213

00:47:02,205 --> 00:47:03,825

on the stage with that voice.

 

1214

00:47:03,825 --> 00:47:06,340

Just be or not to be.

 

1215

00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:06,980

Marc Preston: No.

 

1216

00:47:06,985 --> 00:47:10,575

There, there are certain people that,

that I think that, that I, down here

 

1217

00:47:10,575 --> 00:47:12,135

we don't have a lot of stage stuff.

 

1218

00:47:12,135 --> 00:47:14,205

Like there, there are people

I would like to see like, uh,

 

1219

00:47:14,865 --> 00:47:16,065

like last night I saw him on tv.

 

1220

00:47:16,095 --> 00:47:17,205

Uh uh, Sam Rockwell.

 

1221

00:47:17,235 --> 00:47:18,075

I would love to see.

 

1222

00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:18,340

Oh wow.

 

1223

00:47:18,340 --> 00:47:18,460

Yeah.

 

1224

00:47:18,460 --> 00:47:19,275

Him on stage.

 

1225

00:47:19,275 --> 00:47:21,975

Or there are certain people who I

want to see them on stage doing their

 

1226

00:47:21,975 --> 00:47:23,985

thing, you know, but me performing.

 

1227

00:47:24,375 --> 00:47:25,215

Nobody needs that.

 

1228

00:47:25,785 --> 00:47:26,565

Uh, maybe one day.

 

1229

00:47:26,625 --> 00:47:27,225

Maybe one day.

 

1230

00:47:27,525 --> 00:47:29,715

Now let next question, let's go

back to when you were younger.

 

1231

00:47:29,745 --> 00:47:32,355

Uh, very first celebrity crush.

 

1232

00:47:32,355 --> 00:47:33,345

Who was that for you?

 

1233

00:47:33,345 --> 00:47:34,005

Annalise Basso: Oh, no.

 

1234

00:47:34,635 --> 00:47:34,725

Oh no.

 

1235

00:47:35,655 --> 00:47:37,305

Toby McGuire and Spiderman.

 

1236

00:47:38,235 --> 00:47:39,135

Marc Preston: I can see that.

 

1237

00:47:39,195 --> 00:47:42,495

Um, now let's say you're gonna

be on an island for a year.

 

1238

00:47:42,555 --> 00:47:45,705

Uh, the next question, it's

an island you wanna be on.

 

1239

00:47:45,705 --> 00:47:46,965

It's great, it's exotic.

 

1240

00:47:46,965 --> 00:47:50,235

It's al pretty much like a resort,

but you gotta be there a whole year.

 

1241

00:47:50,355 --> 00:47:54,675

There's no streaming, so if you wanna

listen to music, you gotta bring one CD

 

1242

00:47:55,005 --> 00:47:59,295

and to watch a movie, you gotta bring

1D VD, something you can listen to and

 

1243

00:47:59,295 --> 00:48:00,855

watch over and over and over again.

 

1244

00:48:01,365 --> 00:48:02,085

What would that be?

 

1245

00:48:02,655 --> 00:48:03,075

Annalise Basso: Oh, no.

 

1246

00:48:04,395 --> 00:48:07,095

I should have had, I, maybe

I need to consult my list.

 

1247

00:48:07,095 --> 00:48:10,035

I, I, the thing, the

movie that comes to mind,

 

1248

00:48:13,035 --> 00:48:15,465

maybe The Secret Garden 1993, though

 

1249

00:48:15,885 --> 00:48:16,455

Marc Preston: I'm trying to remember.

 

1250

00:48:16,455 --> 00:48:18,855

I know my kids watched

one, uh, the Secret Garden.

 

1251

00:48:18,855 --> 00:48:20,180

I just recently, two recently.

 

1252

00:48:21,044 --> 00:48:21,930

Annalise Basso: I, I just read was did

 

1253

00:48:21,930 --> 00:48:24,705

Marc Preston: they come out with

another one after 93 or was 93?

 

1254

00:48:24,705 --> 00:48:24,855

It did.

 

1255

00:48:25,154 --> 00:48:25,544

Okay.

 

1256

00:48:25,725 --> 00:48:25,964

Annalise Basso: Yeah.

 

1257

00:48:25,964 --> 00:48:29,024

No, they came out with one, I

think, I don't know, within the last

 

1258

00:48:29,145 --> 00:48:31,754

probably 10 years, 10, 15 years.

 

1259

00:48:32,145 --> 00:48:33,765

But I know my kids, we watched it,

 

1260

00:48:34,634 --> 00:48:38,625

Marc Preston: I'm trying to

think, 2009 I think is when we

 

1261

00:48:38,685 --> 00:48:39,404

watched it when they were young.

 

1262

00:48:39,404 --> 00:48:39,495

Mm-hmm.

 

1263

00:48:39,944 --> 00:48:41,569

Um, that was, that was a great move.

 

1264

00:48:41,595 --> 00:48:41,805

Okay.

 

1265

00:48:41,805 --> 00:48:42,825

So Secret Garden.

 

1266

00:48:43,064 --> 00:48:43,125

Yeah.

 

1267

00:48:43,125 --> 00:48:45,464

And what, what Now I will say a box set.

 

1268

00:48:45,464 --> 00:48:46,035

You can do that.

 

1269

00:48:46,035 --> 00:48:47,535

You can do a box set

when it comes to music

 

1270

00:48:47,790 --> 00:48:48,290

Annalise Basso: if you'd like.

 

1271

00:48:48,310 --> 00:48:48,529

Ooh.

 

1272

00:48:50,430 --> 00:48:50,720

Okay.

 

1273

00:48:53,259 --> 00:48:58,395

Uh, this is, I don't know if this is

cheating, so let me know if I need to.

 

1274

00:48:59,950 --> 00:49:03,944

I change my answer, but I would do the

Chronicles of running a audio books.

 

1275

00:49:04,305 --> 00:49:06,435

Marc Preston: You found

a loophole just then.

 

1276

00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:06,509

Mm-hmm.

 

1277

00:49:06,589 --> 00:49:09,045

You the an audiobook

music You said Boxset, you

 

1278

00:49:09,045 --> 00:49:11,895

Annalise Basso: said I could do, you

said I could do boxset, but Okay.

 

1279

00:49:11,895 --> 00:49:12,254

Music.

 

1280

00:49:12,254 --> 00:49:13,125

You're right, you're right, you're right.

 

1281

00:49:13,125 --> 00:49:13,305

Right.

 

1282

00:49:13,785 --> 00:49:14,145

Marc Preston: No, no, no.

 

1283

00:49:14,145 --> 00:49:14,835

That, that's good though.

 

1284

00:49:14,835 --> 00:49:17,685

That's you did find, so you know

what, I'll, I'll, I'll allow that

 

1285

00:49:17,685 --> 00:49:20,625

for all of my guests, but I'm

curious, musically, what grabs you.

 

1286

00:49:22,725 --> 00:49:24,165

Annalise Basso: I listen to everything.

 

1287

00:49:24,795 --> 00:49:25,634

I really do.

 

1288

00:49:25,694 --> 00:49:33,825

I, I, I'm trying to think of my

favorite album or what, but it

 

1289

00:49:33,825 --> 00:49:35,745

really just depends on the day.

 

1290

00:49:35,805 --> 00:49:37,995

And I, I don't discriminate.

 

1291

00:49:37,995 --> 00:49:39,375

I li I do listen to everything.

 

1292

00:49:39,795 --> 00:49:41,504

There's even country sometimes.

 

1293

00:49:42,464 --> 00:49:42,495

Marc Preston: Oh.

 

1294

00:49:42,495 --> 00:49:45,615

That, that would make my, my youngest

is the country fan, and they, uh, like

 

1295

00:49:45,615 --> 00:49:48,585

her boyfriend, I think they're one

of their main connecting principles

 

1296

00:49:48,585 --> 00:49:49,815

is they both like country music.

 

1297

00:49:50,234 --> 00:49:53,444

Mm. So it's kind of a, you

know, so she's, she has a cup.

 

1298

00:49:53,819 --> 00:49:54,180

Annalise Basso: It's just

 

1299

00:49:54,180 --> 00:49:54,779

Marc Preston: simple.

 

1300

00:49:55,350 --> 00:49:58,080

Annalise Basso: And Willie Nelson, um, oh

 

1301

00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:58,410

Marc Preston: yeah,

 

1302

00:49:58,734 --> 00:50:01,200

Annalise Basso: I, I would listen

to the blues with my dad a lot.

 

1303

00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:05,279

Like, you know, Stevie

Ray Vaughn, and, um,

 

1304

00:50:05,580 --> 00:50:06,629

Marc Preston: okay, now you,

now you're sit in home runs.

 

1305

00:50:06,629 --> 00:50:07,620

He's a Dallas boy.

 

1306

00:50:07,620 --> 00:50:10,529

A big, you know, and it was funny

because, uh, down here on the

 

1307

00:50:10,529 --> 00:50:13,290

island, uh, my daughter bartended

this big bar, a Clayton's Beach

 

1308

00:50:13,290 --> 00:50:14,459

bar free promotion for them.

 

1309

00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,080

Just real big, enormous deck thing.

 

1310

00:50:16,350 --> 00:50:19,770

And, um, but they have like rap

acts and some accent, like, I'm

 

1311

00:50:19,770 --> 00:50:23,580

like, and here on the island, I, I'm

going to spring break, I'm sorry.

 

1312

00:50:23,584 --> 00:50:23,975

Mm-hmm.

 

1313

00:50:24,055 --> 00:50:27,000

So the spring break circa when I was.

 

1314

00:50:27,525 --> 00:50:28,215

Spring breaking.

 

1315

00:50:28,215 --> 00:50:32,025

I didn't have a chance to come here,

but Stevie Ray Vaughn was playing on

 

1316

00:50:32,025 --> 00:50:34,185

the beach and the crowd was insane.

 

1317

00:50:34,185 --> 00:50:36,675

Like, that would be a cool spring break.

 

1318

00:50:36,675 --> 00:50:37,035

Yeah.

 

1319

00:50:37,035 --> 00:50:39,675

I mean, he, he had to, they had

put a stage on the beach and it

 

1320

00:50:39,675 --> 00:50:42,735

was like, this was the spring break

destination for many, many years.

 

1321

00:50:42,735 --> 00:50:46,275

And then I go down there and I'm like,

uh, to see, you know, my daughter.

 

1322

00:50:46,305 --> 00:50:49,860

And like, it's like, you know, oh,

you know, I, I'm feeling like old now.

 

1323

00:50:49,860 --> 00:50:49,901

Spring now.

 

1324

00:50:49,901 --> 00:50:49,995

Spring break.

 

1325

00:50:49,995 --> 00:50:50,115

Oh

 

1326

00:50:50,115 --> 00:50:50,535

Annalise Basso: boy.

 

1327

00:50:50,595 --> 00:50:50,955

Yeah.

 

1328

00:50:50,955 --> 00:50:51,780

And then Stevie Ray.

 

1329

00:50:51,945 --> 00:50:53,385

Oh my, that's so cool.

 

1330

00:50:53,595 --> 00:50:54,140

That's so cool.

 

1331

00:50:54,315 --> 00:50:55,905

Marc Preston: Um, now,

now the next question.

 

1332

00:50:55,905 --> 00:50:58,875

If you were to go from STEM to stern

to, from the time you wake up to

 

1333

00:50:58,875 --> 00:51:00,465

the time you go to sleep mm-hmm.

 

1334

00:51:00,705 --> 00:51:03,435

Um, what are the component

parts for you of a perfect day?

 

1335

00:51:03,615 --> 00:51:07,005

You know, those things that they all

happen, it's just a glorious day for you.

 

1336

00:51:07,695 --> 00:51:08,085

Annalise Basso: Wow.

 

1337

00:51:08,595 --> 00:51:13,425

I mean, I have to think about that

because it's really just one thing.

 

1338

00:51:13,425 --> 00:51:19,815

I have a daily practice that I do,

and if that happens, then I don't

 

1339

00:51:19,815 --> 00:51:22,425

know, everything else is just a bonus.

 

1340

00:51:22,485 --> 00:51:23,175

I mean, is it kinda like a

 

1341

00:51:23,175 --> 00:51:25,935

Marc Preston: meditative

or, uh, exercise thing or.

 

1342

00:51:26,580 --> 00:51:30,570

Annalise Basso: I mean, it's a, it's

like a, a spiritual practice and mm-hmm.

 

1343

00:51:30,870 --> 00:51:33,660

Um, yeah, it's definitely

a part of my daily routine.

 

1344

00:51:33,660 --> 00:51:34,320

Sometimes.

 

1345

00:51:35,100 --> 00:51:40,320

I mean, just the last couple, uh,

last month or the month before last,

 

1346

00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:46,410

actually back in March, I put up a play

that I wrote, directed and produced.

 

1347

00:51:46,770 --> 00:51:51,780

And it was just like the days would just

start to blend together and I forgot

 

1348

00:51:51,780 --> 00:51:56,370

to make time and this is how we know

what our true priorities are, and I do.

 

1349

00:51:56,370 --> 00:51:56,460

Mm-hmm.

 

1350

00:51:57,285 --> 00:51:58,860

I mean, I prioritize.

 

1351

00:51:59,595 --> 00:52:04,305

Uh, this, I, I thought I did at least

this like, piece of my life that I

 

1352

00:52:04,305 --> 00:52:09,555

cherish and hold sacred and, you know,

sometimes we just get so busy that the

 

1353

00:52:09,675 --> 00:52:14,115

things like when the days go by and

you're like, oh, something's missing.

 

1354

00:52:14,115 --> 00:52:16,755

And I'm like, oh my gosh, it's

been two days or three days.

 

1355

00:52:16,755 --> 00:52:18,046

I, it's such a part of my life.

 

1356

00:52:18,230 --> 00:52:18,450

We

 

1357

00:52:18,450 --> 00:52:20,985

Marc Preston: could, it's so

easy to develop new habits, but

 

1358

00:52:20,985 --> 00:52:23,505

also get out of certain habits.

 

1359

00:52:23,510 --> 00:52:23,610

Mm-hmm.

 

1360

00:52:23,690 --> 00:52:24,855

You gotta be mindful of that.

 

1361

00:52:24,855 --> 00:52:25,005

Yeah.

 

1362

00:52:25,005 --> 00:52:27,405

So I'm dealing with the

same thing myself here.

 

1363

00:52:27,405 --> 00:52:29,805

So without getting all into

it, 'cause it's not about me.

 

1364

00:52:31,215 --> 00:52:32,715

Uh, but, but, but no, I,

I know that very well.

 

1365

00:52:32,715 --> 00:52:35,055

So, but are you a coffee, a tea person?

 

1366

00:52:35,055 --> 00:52:36,090

Are you, do you get exercise?

 

1367

00:52:36,090 --> 00:52:36,690

I love in the day.

 

1368

00:52:36,690 --> 00:52:36,693

I love coffee.

 

1369

00:52:37,245 --> 00:52:38,115

Annalise Basso: I love coffee.

 

1370

00:52:38,115 --> 00:52:43,155

I dance, I do, I I do like to

do something active every day.

 

1371

00:52:43,665 --> 00:52:49,935

Um, I mean, I, I think I

mentioned I du Muay Thai, I surf.

 

1372

00:52:50,865 --> 00:52:51,705

Um, really?

 

1373

00:52:51,705 --> 00:52:51,735

Okay.

 

1374

00:52:52,245 --> 00:52:55,935

Any days where that happens in the

morning, like I have my Dawn Patrol group.

 

1375

00:52:55,935 --> 00:52:58,725

We go out at probably 5 36.

 

1376

00:52:59,415 --> 00:53:03,735

In the morning up to Malibu

and just, you know, that's,

 

1377

00:53:03,735 --> 00:53:05,145

that's a great day when happens.

 

1378

00:53:05,240 --> 00:53:05,360

I,

 

1379

00:53:05,565 --> 00:53:08,565

Marc Preston: I, I'm the biggest surf

nerd that has actually not surfed

 

1380

00:53:08,565 --> 00:53:11,865

and I got people who are on the

island trying to get me to do it.

 

1381

00:53:11,865 --> 00:53:15,375

I just haven't had an opportunity,

but, oh, we actually, I've got it.

 

1382

00:53:15,495 --> 00:53:16,755

I can't really see it on the wall.

 

1383

00:53:16,965 --> 00:53:18,975

Have you ever seen the movie,

the documentary, uh, writing

 

1384

00:53:18,975 --> 00:53:22,815

Giants about big wave surfing,

about Laird Hamilton and, uh,

 

1385

00:53:23,100 --> 00:53:24,735

Annalise Basso: uh, writing Giants?

 

1386

00:53:25,215 --> 00:53:25,935

Marc Preston: Oh, it's

a great documentary.

 

1387

00:53:26,205 --> 00:53:26,565

I haven't seen,

 

1388

00:53:27,015 --> 00:53:30,915

Annalise Basso: I, I've seen Tim b uh,

what's his, what's his, what's his name?

 

1389

00:53:31,125 --> 00:53:35,595

Tim Bo Bonnie I, I don't know how to

pronounce his last name, but he did

 

1390

00:53:35,595 --> 00:53:39,045

a documentary about big wave surfing

that when I saw it I was like, Ugh.

 

1391

00:53:39,495 --> 00:53:40,245

And I think it's just called, oh, well

 

1392

00:53:40,245 --> 00:53:42,000

Marc Preston: this, this,

this came out in 2004.

 

1393

00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:43,665

You just look it up Riding giants.

 

1394

00:53:43,665 --> 00:53:44,055

It's so great.

 

1395

00:53:44,055 --> 00:53:47,595

I got the movie poster and I've got

Greg Noll, who is a, uh, kind of the

 

1396

00:53:47,595 --> 00:53:50,475

og, uh, big wave surfer in lad Hamilton.

 

1397

00:53:50,475 --> 00:53:51,675

Do they all sign, have this.

 

1398

00:53:52,154 --> 00:53:54,134

It's called writing giants.

 

1399

00:53:54,134 --> 00:53:54,136

Mm-hmm.

 

1400

00:53:54,140 --> 00:53:56,625

Writing giants and, uh, but

yeah, I got the movie poster sign

 

1401

00:53:56,685 --> 00:53:58,755

hanging out the end of my stairway.

 

1402

00:53:59,384 --> 00:53:59,565

Yeah.

 

1403

00:53:59,565 --> 00:54:01,725

So it's like a odd prize possession.

 

1404

00:54:01,725 --> 00:54:04,245

Told my kids when I pass one day,

you're not allowed to sell it.

 

1405

00:54:04,245 --> 00:54:05,355

This is a special thing.

 

1406

00:54:06,285 --> 00:54:08,055

Um, now the weather's right man.

 

1407

00:54:08,055 --> 00:54:11,924

I'm ready to get out and, you know,

hit, you know, look like a, look what

 

1408

00:54:11,924 --> 00:54:13,545

they call it, a kook, you know, for

 

1409

00:54:14,205 --> 00:54:14,805

Annalise Basso: Oh yeah.

 

1410

00:54:14,805 --> 00:54:14,807

Oh yeah.

 

1411

00:54:15,525 --> 00:54:19,005

And it's so fun to go out there and just

clog up the lineup and just be a, be a,

 

1412

00:54:19,245 --> 00:54:21,645

like, I don't take myself very seriously.

 

1413

00:54:21,645 --> 00:54:25,634

Like I, I am not a. I'm very amateur.

 

1414

00:54:25,665 --> 00:54:28,694

Like, I mean, the biggest wave

I've probably, I've paddled into is

 

1415

00:54:28,694 --> 00:54:33,254

probably like six feet, seven feet,

um, which isn't too small, but still

 

1416

00:54:33,254 --> 00:54:35,234

I bomb more often than I shred.

 

1417

00:54:36,975 --> 00:54:38,654

Marc Preston: Well, well, as long

as you're out there doing it,

 

1418

00:54:38,654 --> 00:54:39,705

that's what makes a difference.

 

1419

00:54:39,734 --> 00:54:40,065

Annalise Basso: Mm-hmm.

 

1420

00:54:40,305 --> 00:54:42,076

Marc Preston: Um, now last

couple questions I got for you.

 

1421

00:54:42,254 --> 00:54:45,225

Uh, my, my youngest is out suntanning.

 

1422

00:54:45,225 --> 00:54:46,665

She's like, are you done

with your interview yet?

 

1423

00:54:47,355 --> 00:54:49,455

That's not what she sounds like,

but that's the way I'm interpreting.

 

1424

00:54:49,964 --> 00:54:54,555

Um, so if you weren't doing this for

a living, what would you be doing?

 

1425

00:54:54,645 --> 00:54:57,165

What would be the number

two thing to bring you joy?

 

1426

00:54:57,254 --> 00:55:00,915

You know, if somebody said, uh, TV and

film doesn't exist anymore, you know,

 

1427

00:55:00,915 --> 00:55:05,565

or theater or anything, acting creative,

you've gotta come up with something else.

 

1428

00:55:05,835 --> 00:55:06,915

What would fit for you?

 

1429

00:55:07,875 --> 00:55:08,444

Annalise Basso: So,

 

1430

00:55:10,605 --> 00:55:11,565

I'm sorry, lawyer's, daughter.

 

1431

00:55:11,565 --> 00:55:13,095

I'm seeing what the loopholes are.

 

1432

00:55:13,095 --> 00:55:15,290

I'm seeing hypothetical.

 

1433

00:55:15,509 --> 00:55:15,730

Um,

 

1434

00:55:16,035 --> 00:55:17,745

Marc Preston: you got the

disclaimers running in your mind.

 

1435

00:55:17,745 --> 00:55:17,924

Yeah.

 

1436

00:55:18,225 --> 00:55:19,569

Annalise Basso: So does, does.

 

1437

00:55:20,685 --> 00:55:22,335

Could I be a dance teacher?

 

1438

00:55:22,335 --> 00:55:23,775

Because I do that and I love it.

 

1439

00:55:23,780 --> 00:55:23,950

Yeah,

 

1440

00:55:24,105 --> 00:55:24,255

Marc Preston: yeah.

 

1441

00:55:24,255 --> 00:55:24,945

Absolutely.

 

1442

00:55:24,945 --> 00:55:25,575

Absolutely.

 

1443

00:55:25,635 --> 00:55:25,875

Annalise Basso: Yeah.

 

1444

00:55:26,205 --> 00:55:28,995

Marc Preston: Uh, I, I see outside

of what we mostly know you for.

 

1445

00:55:29,025 --> 00:55:29,115

Mm-hmm.

 

1446

00:55:29,115 --> 00:55:30,405

And that would be the dance teacher.

 

1447

00:55:30,555 --> 00:55:31,005

There you go.

 

1448

00:55:31,005 --> 00:55:31,395

See that.

 

1449

00:55:31,730 --> 00:55:33,285

And, and you could have

folks in your living room.

 

1450

00:55:33,290 --> 00:55:34,515

I, I, I gotta get one of the bar.

 

1451

00:55:34,515 --> 00:55:36,855

I'm looking at that going, man, I

could really stretch out my backs.

 

1452

00:55:36,915 --> 00:55:37,335

It's great.

 

1453

00:55:37,335 --> 00:55:37,845

And I'm like, it's

 

1454

00:55:37,845 --> 00:55:38,145

Annalise Basso: great.

 

1455

00:55:38,535 --> 00:55:39,735

I mean, I, I stretch on it.

 

1456

00:55:39,750 --> 00:55:41,265

I'm like, almost every day and use it.

 

1457

00:55:41,265 --> 00:55:43,485

Like, I go through the lesson

plans and there's something

 

1458

00:55:43,695 --> 00:55:46,245

that's so lovely about teaching.

 

1459

00:55:46,425 --> 00:55:50,385

'cause when I teach these girls, like

the youngest in the class is I think

 

1460

00:55:50,385 --> 00:55:53,295

seven or eight, and the oldest is

nine, nine and a half, about to be 10.

 

1461

00:55:53,715 --> 00:55:58,935

And just going through the basics, it's

not just about teaching them how to dance,

 

1462

00:55:58,935 --> 00:56:05,505

it's teaching them body awareness and how

to be strong and disciplined and poised.

 

1463

00:56:05,505 --> 00:56:08,625

Like one of the girls was like, why

are you pushing us so hard today?

 

1464

00:56:08,925 --> 00:56:10,635

And I was like, because

that's how you make progress.

 

1465

00:56:10,635 --> 00:56:11,445

That's how you grow.

 

1466

00:56:11,445 --> 00:56:13,455

And she had this moment,

I'm like, oh yeah.

 

1467

00:56:13,455 --> 00:56:18,075

And she, you know, worked through the rest

of the class and she got tired and I mean.

 

1468

00:56:19,170 --> 00:56:22,710

Teaching kids how to, I don't know.

 

1469

00:56:22,710 --> 00:56:27,330

Not only just push through discomfort,

but to be strong and give them

 

1470

00:56:27,330 --> 00:56:31,110

a, yeah, teach them, like sharing

the love of dance with them.

 

1471

00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:32,640

It's just, it's fun.

 

1472

00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:33,270

I love it.

 

1473

00:56:33,450 --> 00:56:35,310

Marc Preston: I think with that, a

discipline like that, they could stand

 

1474

00:56:35,310 --> 00:56:37,830

on their own two feet literally and

figuratively, you know, it's kind

 

1475

00:56:37,830 --> 00:56:41,760

of a know or one foot or, or yes.

 

1476

00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:42,480

Or one foot.

 

1477

00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:42,810

Yeah.

 

1478

00:56:42,815 --> 00:56:44,040

And, and, and spin.

 

1479

00:56:44,045 --> 00:56:45,270

Sorry, sorry.

 

1480

00:56:45,835 --> 00:56:46,650

No, no, no.

 

1481

00:56:46,650 --> 00:56:48,180

Believe me, I'm a, I'm a dad joke.

 

1482

00:56:48,420 --> 00:56:49,740

Like Jedi.

 

1483

00:56:50,220 --> 00:56:51,870

Um, now the last question I got for you.

 

1484

00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,720

If you were to jump into that DeLorean

and travel back to when you were

 

1485

00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:58,710

16 years old and you got a piece of

advice you wanna drop to yourself to

 

1486

00:56:58,710 --> 00:57:01,920

make that moment in your life somehow

better or put yourself on a little bit

 

1487

00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:05,670

different track, what would that piece

of advice be to 16-year-old, to you?

 

1488

00:57:07,185 --> 00:57:12,450

Annalise Basso: Um, probably

just trust yourself.

 

1489

00:57:13,230 --> 00:57:17,250

Trust yourself more people's

opinions really don't matter.

 

1490

00:57:17,340 --> 00:57:17,400

Yeah.

 

1491

00:57:17,970 --> 00:57:22,020

And don't let their opinions

of you or your art or your

 

1492

00:57:22,020 --> 00:57:24,180

life define what it means.

 

1493

00:57:24,180 --> 00:57:26,280

Like you Yeah.

 

1494

00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:26,880

Trust yourself.

 

1495

00:57:27,390 --> 00:57:28,470

Marc Preston: Very, very good.

 

1496

00:57:28,470 --> 00:57:29,100

I like that.

 

1497

00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:30,780

Well, to Annise, thank you so much.

 

1498

00:57:30,780 --> 00:57:34,320

I, I appreciate you sharing some

time and, uh, it was a lot of fun.

 

1499

00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:38,010

And, and I'm looking forward to,

uh, checking out the, uh, film like

 

1500

00:57:38,010 --> 00:57:42,210

again, you know, the cast of life at

Chuck just is just excited to see it.

 

1501

00:57:42,210 --> 00:57:44,340

That's actually, you know, I'm gonna

go to the theater to see this one.

 

1502

00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,100

Annalise Basso: I appreciate you going

to the theater because I think seeing

 

1503

00:57:47,100 --> 00:57:52,290

this is one of those movies where, yeah,

you could stream it, but seeing it in a

 

1504

00:57:52,290 --> 00:57:58,620

theater with people, hearing them laugh,

hearing them cry, hearing them being

 

1505

00:57:58,620 --> 00:58:00,635

a part of this experience, it's like.

 

1506

00:58:02,010 --> 00:58:05,010

Yeah, it, I would, I would

recommend going to the theater, so

 

1507

00:58:05,250 --> 00:58:05,640

Marc Preston: very good.

 

1508

00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:08,130

The life of Chuck, but I, I

enjoy the life of Annalise.

 

1509

00:58:08,130 --> 00:58:08,640

Just now.

 

1510

00:58:08,700 --> 00:58:08,940

So charming.

 

1521

00:58:18,900 --> 00:58:23,010

Really enjoy the sit down with, uh,

Annalise and, uh, really looking forward

Anything he's in, I'm gonna go see.

 

1531

00:58:46,900 --> 00:58:50,080

Uh, but the buzz on this

film is, uh, is pretty big.

 

1532

00:58:50,290 --> 00:58:52,150

A lot of people saying a lot

of great things about it.

 

1533
