Marc Preston: not good for New Orleans.

140

00:04:15,501 --> 00:04:17,444

Marc Preston: Now there's a little bit of backstory here.

141

00:04:17,485 --> 00:04:19,388

Marc Preston: So you're you're acting now, but am I

142

00:04:19,428 --> 00:04:21,251

Marc Preston: correct in thinking you did some modeling

143

00:04:21,812 --> 00:04:22,514

Marc Preston: as well, correct?

144

00:04:23,100 --> 00:04:25,085

Logan Macrae: Yeah, that's kind of kind of how I fell

145

00:04:25,145 --> 00:04:26,088

Logan Macrae: into the acting.

146

00:04:27,150 --> 00:04:28,454

Logan Macrae: I was going to school I actually went to

147

00:04:28,494 --> 00:04:31,000

Logan Macrae: school in in Boulder University of Colorado

148

00:04:32,122 --> 00:04:36,791

Logan Macrae: and one summer I was like you know what,

149

00:04:37,031 --> 00:04:38,474

Logan Macrae: I'm going to go out to New York City, try

150

00:04:38,514 --> 00:04:39,756

Logan Macrae: this whole modeling thing.

151

00:04:40,597 --> 00:04:42,000

Logan Macrae: And I never left.

152

00:04:42,462 --> 00:04:44,849

Logan Macrae: I ended up staying in New York City for 12

153

00:04:44,910 --> 00:04:45,632

Logan Macrae: plus years.

154

00:04:45,692 --> 00:04:47,418

Logan Macrae: I have some family on the East Coast so I

155

00:04:47,458 --> 00:04:48,000

Logan Macrae: had them close by.

156

00:04:48,682 --> 00:04:52,676

Logan Macrae: But that's how I ended up in New York and

157

00:04:52,736 --> 00:04:54,583

Logan Macrae: ended up staying there for a while and

158

00:04:54,623 --> 00:04:57,859

Logan Macrae: while modeling slowly fell into all of the

159

00:04:57,879 --> 00:04:58,000

Logan Macrae: acting.

160

00:04:59,367 --> 00:05:00,332

Marc Preston: Now the modeling.

161

00:05:00,754 --> 00:05:02,000

Marc Preston: Was it mostly like runway print?

162

00:05:03,061 --> 00:05:03,762

Logan Macrae: It was mostly.

163

00:05:04,003 --> 00:05:06,025

Logan Macrae: It was mostly print stuff.

164

00:05:06,466 --> 00:05:09,410

Logan Macrae: I mean, the runway stuff is completely

165

00:05:09,490 --> 00:05:09,911

Logan Macrae: different.

166

00:05:10,051 --> 00:05:10,191

Logan Macrae: It's.

167

00:05:10,712 --> 00:05:14,216

Logan Macrae: You know, I'm more of a athletic build,

168

00:05:14,276 --> 00:05:16,639

Logan Macrae: whereas the runway was a little bit thinner

169

00:05:16,659 --> 00:05:16,980

Logan Macrae: than what I was.

170

00:05:17,902 --> 00:05:20,347

Logan Macrae: I grew up playing sports and whatnot, so

171

00:05:21,129 --> 00:05:23,682

Logan Macrae: the runway stuff wasn't quite for me, yeah

172

00:05:23,802 --> 00:05:25,245

Logan Macrae: that's yeah.

173

00:05:25,265 --> 00:05:26,688

Marc Preston: The closest I came to a runway was I

174

00:05:26,728 --> 00:05:28,432

Marc Preston: learned how to fly back in the 90s.

175

00:05:28,472 --> 00:05:29,895

Marc Preston: You know it's the only runway they let me

176

00:05:30,056 --> 00:05:30,156

Marc Preston: on.

177

00:05:30,196 --> 00:05:31,499

Marc Preston: Anything else is just going to be dangerous,

178

00:05:31,619 --> 00:05:31,980

Marc Preston: you know.

179

00:05:33,042 --> 00:05:33,884

Marc Preston: So what did you do?

180

00:05:34,385 --> 00:05:37,671

Marc Preston: Any kind of training is like did you do the

181

00:05:37,912 --> 00:05:39,836

Marc Preston: any kind of acting coaches, classes, stuff

182

00:05:39,876 --> 00:05:41,980

Marc Preston: like that, or you just kind of jump into it.

183

00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,964

Logan Macrae: Yeah, so it started.

184

00:05:46,746 --> 00:05:49,589

Logan Macrae: It started with just a very basic like

185

00:05:49,770 --> 00:05:51,712

Logan Macrae: commercial class and I was taking a

186

00:05:51,772 --> 00:05:55,116

Logan Macrae: commercial commercial, I guess acting class

187

00:05:55,156 --> 00:05:57,660

Logan Macrae: just to kind of get your angles and whatnot

188

00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,166

Logan Macrae: down, and from there I was like, okay, well,

189

00:06:01,186 --> 00:06:01,767

Logan Macrae: what's next?

190

00:06:01,827 --> 00:06:03,189

Logan Macrae: I was always kind of the type of person

191

00:06:03,209 --> 00:06:04,812

Logan Macrae: where I'm like, okay, I mastered that skill,

192

00:06:04,852 --> 00:06:05,974

Logan Macrae: so what do we do next?

193

00:06:06,140 --> 00:06:07,703

Logan Macrae: And somebody said, well, go to a real

194

00:06:07,804 --> 00:06:09,567

Logan Macrae: acting class, go to a sensory class.

195

00:06:10,569 --> 00:06:12,733

Logan Macrae: And I ended up going to a sensory class

196

00:06:12,753 --> 00:06:14,196

Logan Macrae: with this phenomenal teacher on the Upper

197

00:06:14,236 --> 00:06:14,637

Logan Macrae: West Side.

198

00:06:14,677 --> 00:06:19,405

Logan Macrae: Her name is Sheila Gray and she taught this

199

00:06:19,445 --> 00:06:21,548

Logan Macrae: sensory class and I just I fell in love

200

00:06:21,568 --> 00:06:21,848

Logan Macrae: with it.

201

00:06:22,089 --> 00:06:23,951

Logan Macrae: It just brought emotions and whatnot out of

202

00:06:24,011 --> 00:06:26,635

Logan Macrae: me that I didn't necessarily know were

203

00:06:26,655 --> 00:06:29,403

Logan Macrae: there and I did some sensory and some

204

00:06:29,543 --> 00:06:33,848

Logan Macrae: improv through her and because of her I

205

00:06:33,928 --> 00:06:36,290

Logan Macrae: actually was able to start auditioning with

206

00:06:36,370 --> 00:06:38,613

Logan Macrae: it, because she actually reached out to a

207

00:06:38,673 --> 00:06:41,196

Logan Macrae: representative at my commercial agency and

208

00:06:41,236 --> 00:06:42,858

Logan Macrae: was like, hey, you should really be doing

209

00:06:42,938 --> 00:06:44,880

Logan Macrae: some auditions because he knows what he's

210

00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:45,000

Logan Macrae: doing.

211

00:06:45,521 --> 00:06:48,670

Logan Macrae: So through the work it kind of fell into

212

00:06:48,711 --> 00:06:48,951

Logan Macrae: that.

213

00:06:49,541 --> 00:06:50,041

Marc Preston: Yeah, and that's.

214

00:06:51,023 --> 00:06:52,705

Marc Preston: This is all happening up in New York now.

215

00:06:53,706 --> 00:06:55,449

Marc Preston: I know with New Orleans for a period of

216

00:06:55,509 --> 00:06:56,971

Marc Preston: time was doing really, really well, getting

217

00:06:57,011 --> 00:06:58,433

Marc Preston: a lot of work, and then they killed the tax

218

00:06:58,473 --> 00:06:59,975

Marc Preston: credit and then all that work went up to.

219

00:07:00,015 --> 00:07:00,936

Marc Preston: Atlanta or Georgia?

220

00:07:01,822 --> 00:07:04,168

Marc Preston: Are you bouncing back and forth to New York

221

00:07:04,248 --> 00:07:05,291

Marc Preston: or out out of town?

222

00:07:05,411 --> 00:07:07,516

Marc Preston: Are you just hanging out and just kind of

223

00:07:07,556 --> 00:07:08,980

Marc Preston: going whatever, wherever the projects are?

224

00:07:10,161 --> 00:07:12,164

Logan Macrae: Yeah, I'm following projects at this point

225

00:07:12,224 --> 00:07:12,704

Logan Macrae: in time.

226

00:07:12,744 --> 00:07:16,669

Logan Macrae: You know, I think COVID shifted the acting

227

00:07:16,749 --> 00:07:19,312

Logan Macrae: landscape and what I see is a very positive

228

00:07:19,392 --> 00:07:22,776

Logan Macrae: way, in the sense that everything self tape.

229

00:07:22,796 --> 00:07:24,298

Logan Macrae: You know, they're no longer asking people

230

00:07:24,338 --> 00:07:25,980

Logan Macrae: to come in for those auditions.

231

00:07:26,220 --> 00:07:27,402

Marc Preston: Isn't that a time saver?

232

00:07:27,422 --> 00:07:28,745

Marc Preston: Everybody I'm talking to is talking about

233

00:07:28,785 --> 00:07:31,269

Marc Preston: how, like that, just finally kind of

234

00:07:31,309 --> 00:07:32,591

Marc Preston: shifted that gear and just said you know

235

00:07:32,611 --> 00:07:34,474

Marc Preston: what, if you can do it at home, just do it.

236

00:07:34,654 --> 00:07:36,497

Marc Preston: You know, and it seems like it's not really

237

00:07:36,538 --> 00:07:37,960

Marc Preston: going back to in person as much.

238

00:07:38,741 --> 00:07:40,342

Logan Macrae: Yeah, and I look at it as it's.

239

00:07:40,402 --> 00:07:43,625

Logan Macrae: I think it's actually more conducive to the

240

00:07:43,745 --> 00:07:46,287

Logan Macrae: craft because when you actually do make it

241

00:07:46,407 --> 00:07:49,950

Logan Macrae: on set you don't just get one opportunity

242

00:07:50,090 --> 00:07:50,791

Logan Macrae: most of the time.

243

00:07:50,851 --> 00:07:52,152

Logan Macrae: Of course there are some directors out

244

00:07:52,172 --> 00:07:54,073

Logan Macrae: there that maybe you'll go one time through,

245

00:07:54,193 --> 00:07:55,715

Logan Macrae: but you know they're only going to do that

246

00:07:55,815 --> 00:07:57,376

Logan Macrae: once they've gotten what they need out of

247

00:07:58,257 --> 00:07:58,937

Logan Macrae: the scene.

248

00:07:59,140 --> 00:08:00,743

Marc Preston: That's a really that's a really great way

249

00:08:00,783 --> 00:08:03,367

Marc Preston: of putting it that on set you are doing the

250

00:08:03,407 --> 00:08:05,451

Marc Preston: takes that until they feel like they've

251

00:08:05,491 --> 00:08:07,374

Marc Preston: locked in, and if you're doing it at home

252

00:08:07,394 --> 00:08:08,476

Marc Preston: you're doing kind of the same thing.

253

00:08:08,916 --> 00:08:10,219

Marc Preston: We all know you're going for an audition is

254

00:08:10,239 --> 00:08:12,731

Marc Preston: like hey, that was great, we'll be in touch

255

00:08:13,336 --> 00:08:13,980

Marc Preston: when you're out the door.

256

00:08:14,500 --> 00:08:16,922

Logan Macrae: Totally, totally, and I think, you know, I

257

00:08:17,263 --> 00:08:19,585

Logan Macrae: think it gives everyone the opportunity to

258

00:08:20,606 --> 00:08:22,467

Logan Macrae: kind of show them best, their best selves,

259

00:08:22,527 --> 00:08:24,709

Logan Macrae: to casting and directors and whatnot.

260

00:08:25,249 --> 00:08:27,311

Logan Macrae: That it's just kind of changed the

261

00:08:27,351 --> 00:08:29,012

Logan Macrae: landscape and I think it's allowed everyone

262

00:08:29,053 --> 00:08:31,915

Logan Macrae: to really show their talents and allowed me

263

00:08:31,995 --> 00:08:34,137

Logan Macrae: to, you know, post up in New Orleans, which

264

00:08:34,197 --> 00:08:34,817

Logan Macrae: I'm okay with.

265

00:08:35,502 --> 00:08:38,913

Marc Preston: I know you, the where the crawdad sing is

266

00:08:38,973 --> 00:08:39,214

Marc Preston: latest.

267

00:08:39,455 --> 00:08:40,980

Marc Preston: So that project, where did y'all shoot?

268

00:08:41,381 --> 00:08:43,545

Logan Macrae: So that project shot in the greater New

269

00:08:43,605 --> 00:08:45,990

Logan Macrae: Orleans area, which was extremely

270

00:08:46,050 --> 00:08:47,353

Logan Macrae: convenient for me Nice yeah.

271

00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:48,621

Logan Macrae: They.

272

00:08:49,402 --> 00:08:51,266

Logan Macrae: Oh yeah, I mean anytime you can sleep in

273

00:08:51,286 --> 00:08:52,848

Logan Macrae: your own bed, you always have to take that.

274

00:08:52,868 --> 00:08:53,089

Logan Macrae: It was.

275

00:08:56,935 --> 00:08:58,598

Logan Macrae: You know the way that they shot it and

276

00:08:58,638 --> 00:09:01,023

Logan Macrae: everything here, and I think the landscape

277

00:09:01,544 --> 00:09:03,928

Logan Macrae: of areas just outside of New Orleans was

278

00:09:04,108 --> 00:09:08,342

Logan Macrae: very conducive and appropriate for what the

279

00:09:08,382 --> 00:09:10,347

Logan Macrae: storyline was of, where the crowd had sing

280

00:09:10,367 --> 00:09:13,541

Logan Macrae: because, um, the care my character and the

281

00:09:13,581 --> 00:09:16,917

Logan Macrae: main character, kaya, grew up on the marsh

282

00:09:16,997 --> 00:09:18,681

Logan Macrae: is what they call it in the book, which you

283

00:09:18,722 --> 00:09:22,357

Logan Macrae: know is basically swamp land, so it's very

284

00:09:22,418 --> 00:09:23,981

Logan Macrae: easy to find in the greater New Orleans

285

00:09:24,081 --> 00:09:26,526

Logan Macrae: area when were y'all shooting roughly Like

286

00:09:26,807 --> 00:09:27,649

Logan Macrae: in the New Orleans area?

287

00:09:28,036 --> 00:09:28,377

Logan Macrae: Yeah.

288

00:09:28,397 --> 00:09:29,861

Logan Macrae: So it was just outside of New Orleans, it

289

00:09:29,901 --> 00:09:31,665

Logan Macrae: was actually a little bit on the North

290

00:09:31,705 --> 00:09:35,661

Logan Macrae: Shore and, um, they found a state park that

291

00:09:35,822 --> 00:09:39,579

Logan Macrae: actually allowed them to build a replica of

292

00:09:39,659 --> 00:09:42,006

Logan Macrae: the home in the state park right on the

293

00:09:42,066 --> 00:09:42,427

Logan Macrae: water.

294

00:09:43,256 --> 00:09:46,359

Logan Macrae: So it was amazing because you show up and

295

00:09:46,419 --> 00:09:47,962

Logan Macrae: it's like, oh, there's the family home and

296

00:09:48,243 --> 00:09:50,968

Logan Macrae: everything was real and it left very little

297

00:09:51,029 --> 00:09:54,119

Logan Macrae: to the imagination that you saw the family

298

00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,880

Logan Macrae: home and it was 20 feet right from the

299

00:09:56,940 --> 00:09:57,261

Logan Macrae: river.

300

00:09:57,442 --> 00:10:01,062

Logan Macrae: So everything was exactly what you pictured

301

00:10:01,102 --> 00:10:02,670

Logan Macrae: in your mind when you read the book in the

302

00:10:02,710 --> 00:10:04,136

Logan Macrae: description of the home it was.

303

00:10:04,276 --> 00:10:06,162

Logan Macrae: It was really cool and I think it just made

304

00:10:06,202 --> 00:10:07,766

Logan Macrae: the experience that much more real.

305

00:10:08,356 --> 00:10:10,323

Marc Preston: So, uh, uh, when did y'all shoot this?

306

00:10:11,536 --> 00:10:15,902

Logan Macrae: It was shot um May of last year, so May of

307

00:10:15,962 --> 00:10:16,925

Logan Macrae: 2021.

308

00:10:17,486 --> 00:10:19,498

Logan Macrae: Um, there was a little bit of delay.

309

00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,363

Logan Macrae: They, you know, they made it so accurate

310

00:10:21,403 --> 00:10:23,327

Logan Macrae: that it was 20 feet away from the water,

311

00:10:23,347 --> 00:10:25,238

Logan Macrae: and I don't know if you remember last year,

312

00:10:25,678 --> 00:10:28,283

Logan Macrae: last year we got a lot of rain, last year

313

00:10:28,364 --> 00:10:30,287

Logan Macrae: in May and they had to shut down production

314

00:10:30,327 --> 00:10:32,978

Logan Macrae: a little while because They'd actually took

315

00:10:33,059 --> 00:10:34,384

Logan Macrae: on so much water that there was water.

316

00:10:34,655 --> 00:10:36,322

Logan Macrae: You know, if you're 20 feet away from the

317

00:10:36,483 --> 00:10:38,129

Logan Macrae: river, the water was suddenly up to the

318

00:10:38,170 --> 00:10:39,435

Logan Macrae: house when we got so much rain.

319

00:10:39,716 --> 00:10:43,725

Logan Macrae: So it was very, very true to living in the

320

00:10:43,785 --> 00:10:47,239

Logan Macrae: marsh swamp that Everybody dealt with it.

321

00:10:47,319 --> 00:10:48,404

Logan Macrae: It was funny yeah that was.

322

00:10:48,584 --> 00:10:50,573

Marc Preston: Uh, it's so funny that whenever I've shot

323

00:10:50,653 --> 00:10:52,058

Marc Preston: things here and I took a little bit of

324

00:10:52,118 --> 00:10:54,296

Marc Preston: hiatus from doing anything on camera, but

325

00:10:54,998 --> 00:10:56,703

Marc Preston: it was wild, because it's like they give

326

00:10:56,723 --> 00:10:58,236

Marc Preston: you a location to go to, it's like, wow, I

327

00:10:58,297 --> 00:10:59,685

353

00:11:44,845 --> 00:11:46,268

00:11:46,315 --> 00:11:47,759

Marc Preston: up in boulder.

360

00:11:54,549 --> 00:11:55,715

361

00:11:55,896 --> 00:11:57,244

Marc Preston: We're like watching movies going.

362

00:11:57,265 --> 00:11:58,573

Marc Preston: one day.

364

00:11:59,496 --> 00:12:00,398

Logan Macrae: Yeah, I think it was.

365

00:12:00,458 --> 00:12:01,180

Logan Macrae: You know totally.

366

00:12:01,220 --> 00:12:02,603

Logan Macrae: I mean, I don't know if you'd consider

367

00:12:02,843 --> 00:12:04,787

Logan Macrae: colorado like midwestern, but it was just

368

00:12:04,847 --> 00:12:08,619

Logan Macrae: kind of that very Traditional upbringing.

369

00:12:08,659 --> 00:12:11,816

Logan Macrae: I mean I have two brothers and it was

370

00:12:12,318 --> 00:12:14,443

Logan Macrae: sports all day, every day is what our lives

371

00:12:14,463 --> 00:12:17,920

Logan Macrae: were growing up kind of, so it really

372

00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:18,944

Logan Macrae: wasn't on the radar.

373

00:12:19,005 --> 00:12:21,033

Logan Macrae: You know, when we got to, when I got to

374

00:12:21,073 --> 00:12:25,085

Logan Macrae: college, films started to kind of creep in

375

00:12:25,105 --> 00:12:27,131

Logan Macrae: there, just and just in general interest

376

00:12:27,171 --> 00:12:27,532

Logan Macrae: and stuff.

377

00:12:27,552 --> 00:12:29,419

Logan Macrae: You start to take your own Mikey, and when

378

00:12:29,460 --> 00:12:30,950

Logan Macrae: you will finally have your own choice of

379

00:12:30,990 --> 00:12:31,655

Logan Macrae: what you're watching.

380

00:12:31,975 --> 00:12:34,240

Logan Macrae: So friends and I would start viewing films,

381

00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,344

Logan Macrae: but the the interest wasn't necessarily

382

00:12:36,444 --> 00:12:38,649

Logan Macrae: there for me to partake in it.

383

00:12:39,276 --> 00:12:40,741

Logan Macrae: It was kind of in new york with the

384

00:12:40,801 --> 00:12:44,321

Logan Macrae: modeling, where I was doing this modeling

385

00:12:44,783 --> 00:12:46,489

Logan Macrae: and I finally got to the point is I was

386

00:12:46,509 --> 00:12:48,275

Logan Macrae: like I really would love to do something

387

00:12:49,378 --> 00:12:50,140

Logan Macrae: With more depth.

388

00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:51,945

Logan Macrae: You know, I think the modeling taught me a

389

00:12:52,005 --> 00:12:54,317

Logan Macrae: lot and I love it With the camera.

390

00:12:54,357 --> 00:12:55,761

Logan Macrae: Sense is with modeling.

391

00:12:55,801 --> 00:12:57,847

Logan Macrae: It teaches you angles very well.

392

00:12:58,035 --> 00:13:00,141

Logan Macrae: So I think Marcs and angles and those types

393

00:13:00,182 --> 00:13:04,040

Logan Macrae: of things came very easy to me and I just

394

00:13:04,101 --> 00:13:05,688

Logan Macrae: wanted to pursue something with some more

395

00:13:05,768 --> 00:13:06,049

Logan Macrae: depth.

396

00:13:06,130 --> 00:13:07,556

Logan Macrae: And I started taking these classes and I

397

00:13:07,576 --> 00:13:08,659

Logan Macrae: was like, wow, there's a whole another

398

00:13:08,740 --> 00:13:10,787

Logan Macrae: level to this when you add the actual

399

00:13:10,967 --> 00:13:13,275

Logan Macrae: talking, moving speaking side to it.

400

00:13:13,475 --> 00:13:14,778

Marc Preston: Well, now is this something that was kind

401

00:13:14,798 --> 00:13:16,722

Marc Preston: of wired into your DNA, like, uh, were your

402

00:13:16,743 --> 00:13:19,208

Marc Preston: parents any one of them anything creatively?

403

00:13:19,388 --> 00:13:21,902

Marc Preston: Or or were they, were they far from the

404

00:13:21,942 --> 00:13:23,106

Marc Preston: creative ecosystem?

405

00:13:23,755 --> 00:13:27,164

Logan Macrae: So my parents not, but my grandmother on my

406

00:13:27,285 --> 00:13:28,127

Logan Macrae: father's side.

407

00:13:28,955 --> 00:13:32,996

Logan Macrae: theater and musical theater in new jersey

409

00:13:35,884 --> 00:13:38,762

Logan Macrae: and she's in her 90s, so it she still is

410

00:13:38,822 --> 00:13:39,827

Logan Macrae: going and she does this.

411

00:13:40,469 --> 00:13:44,736

Logan Macrae: It's her, it's her one love um and Used to

412

00:13:44,776 --> 00:13:47,124

Logan Macrae: sing a lot back in the day, and she was

413

00:13:47,204 --> 00:13:50,563

Logan Macrae: actually in In some type of beauty pageant

414

00:13:50,603 --> 00:13:51,346

Logan Macrae: as well back in the day.

415

00:13:51,386 --> 00:13:54,078

Logan Macrae: I can't remember what it was, but so on her

416

00:13:54,138 --> 00:13:56,545

Logan Macrae: side of it she had that creativity stuff

417

00:13:56,625 --> 00:13:57,267

Logan Macrae: going on.

418

00:13:57,775 --> 00:14:00,483

Logan Macrae: So it's in there somewhere for me, but it

419

00:14:00,523 --> 00:14:03,740

Logan Macrae: wasn't really anything that Either one of

420

00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,671

Logan Macrae: my parents pursued or kind of pushed us

421

00:14:05,712 --> 00:14:06,275

Logan Macrae: towards either.

422

00:14:07,038 --> 00:14:08,684

Marc Preston: My grandmother was the same thing that my

423

00:14:08,864 --> 00:14:09,286

Marc Preston: family's from.

424

00:14:09,727 --> 00:14:10,911

Marc Preston: We'll have them from Denver.

425

00:14:11,152 --> 00:14:12,658

Marc Preston: So she went to LA and that's where my

426

00:14:12,698 --> 00:14:13,561

Marc Preston: grandparents met.

427

00:14:13,722 --> 00:14:15,368

Marc Preston: But she was out there and she'd done some

428

00:14:15,409 --> 00:14:17,437

Marc Preston: singing and some other stuff and I was

429

00:14:17,617 --> 00:14:20,220

Marc Preston: thinking, well, you know, maybe that's

430

00:14:20,261 --> 00:14:21,406

Marc Preston: where I got it from, I don't know.

431

00:14:21,687 --> 00:14:23,414

Marc Preston: You know, but it's kind of funny that you

432

00:14:23,434 --> 00:14:25,721

Marc Preston: know, I did the very opposite of pretty

433

00:14:25,761 --> 00:14:27,024

Marc Preston: much everybody in my family.

434

00:14:27,766 --> 00:14:30,082

Marc Preston: Um, we folks were they kind of down with it,

435

00:14:30,122 --> 00:14:32,322

Marc Preston: like okay, this, yeah, go to go to new york,

436

00:14:32,342 --> 00:14:33,389

Marc Preston: do your thing, or where they can.

437

00:14:33,409 --> 00:14:34,977

Marc Preston: Like, uh, you know, I'll have something to

438

00:14:34,997 --> 00:14:35,719

Marc Preston: fall back on.

439

00:14:35,779 --> 00:14:36,200

Marc Preston: What were they?

440

00:14:36,361 --> 00:14:37,705

Marc Preston: What were they guiding you towards?

441

00:14:38,066 --> 00:14:41,981

Logan Macrae: you know it's one thing in almost to a

442

00:14:42,082 --> 00:14:45,436

Logan Macrae: fault, but I think them so much for it is I

443

00:14:45,476 --> 00:14:48,360

Logan Macrae: have had the most supportive parents of

444

00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,345

Logan Macrae: anything that I've ever pursued and it's

445

00:14:50,506 --> 00:14:52,999

Logan Macrae: it's been Amazing because they've always

446

00:14:53,059 --> 00:14:54,925

Logan Macrae: allowed me to kind of go after those things

447

00:14:54,945 --> 00:14:58,100

Logan Macrae: that I wanted to and they've always cared

448

00:14:58,441 --> 00:15:00,969

Logan Macrae: and they've almost had this blind faith

449

00:15:01,029 --> 00:15:03,095

Logan Macrae: that I've that I would do well in whatever

450

00:15:03,315 --> 00:15:05,781

Logan Macrae: I chose to pursue, which is great.

451

00:15:05,961 --> 00:15:07,705

Logan Macrae: But you know, there's the other side of it

452

00:15:07,765 --> 00:15:12,350

Logan Macrae: as well, where you kind of you, you have to

453

00:15:12,397 --> 00:15:13,930

Logan Macrae: be a little more realistic because I think

454

00:15:13,977 --> 00:15:15,609

Logan Macrae: my parents just you know they were, they

455

00:15:15,629 --> 00:15:17,953

Logan Macrae: are so, so loving and supportive that

456

00:15:18,013 --> 00:15:19,678

Logan Macrae: sometimes I'm like, okay, but am I making

457

00:15:19,698 --> 00:15:20,944

Logan Macrae: the right choice, even though they're

458

00:15:20,964 --> 00:15:23,655

Logan Macrae: saying I am, so I was lucky in that sense.

459

00:15:23,875 --> 00:15:25,461

Logan Macrae: But they, they have been extremely

460

00:15:25,501 --> 00:15:27,027

Logan Macrae: supportive in anything that I pursued.

461

00:15:27,107 --> 00:15:28,070

Marc Preston: Yeah, you kind of want to feel those

462

00:15:28,131 --> 00:15:29,556

Marc Preston: guardrails a little bit going Am.

463

00:15:29,616 --> 00:15:30,720

Logan Macrae: I doing the right thing here.

464

00:15:30,741 --> 00:15:31,263

Marc Preston: You know I don't want to.

465

00:15:32,761 --> 00:15:33,544

Logan Macrae: I don't want to go.

466

00:15:34,075 --> 00:15:36,237

Marc Preston: I think that's a big Part of being in your

467

00:15:36,278 --> 00:15:37,962

Marc Preston: 20s is getting out there, making some,

468

00:15:38,263 --> 00:15:39,647

Marc Preston: making some mistakes, you know.

469

00:15:39,755 --> 00:15:41,519

Marc Preston: Then that way you kind of kind of you get a

470

00:15:41,579 --> 00:15:43,463

Marc Preston: feel for your ad, you know, and I think

471

00:15:44,044 --> 00:15:45,968

Marc Preston: it's, it's a natural transition to do the

472

00:15:46,008 --> 00:15:47,858

Marc Preston: thing from, like I know, like Ian

473

00:15:47,898 --> 00:15:49,704

Marc Preston: summerhalder he actually family lives on

474

00:15:49,724 --> 00:15:52,421

Marc Preston: the north shore Uh, he, you know he went

475

00:15:52,461 --> 00:15:55,197

Marc Preston: from the modeling thing into Into acting.

476

00:15:55,398 --> 00:15:56,020

Marc Preston: You know it's funny.

477

00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,565

Marc Preston: No, I never even thought about the whole

478

00:15:57,625 --> 00:16:00,294

Marc Preston: idea of hitting Marcs and angles and stuff

479

00:16:00,314 --> 00:16:00,535

Marc Preston: like that.

480

00:16:00,555 --> 00:16:02,640

Marc Preston: It's like, yeah, that's, that's, that's a

481

00:16:02,681 --> 00:16:04,666

Marc Preston: big part of the modeling thing and that

482

00:16:04,706 --> 00:16:05,367

Marc Preston: transitions.

483

00:16:05,555 --> 00:16:06,679

Logan Macrae: You really do learn all of it.

484

00:16:06,779 --> 00:16:08,384

Logan Macrae: I think you know the modeling side in, just

485

00:16:08,445 --> 00:16:11,615

Logan Macrae: in terms of what my experience was from all

486

00:16:11,635 --> 00:16:12,177

Logan Macrae: of it and stuff.

487

00:16:12,217 --> 00:16:16,183

Logan Macrae: I think that the travel and just the

488

00:16:16,303 --> 00:16:18,430

Logan Macrae: independence that the modeling stuff taught

489

00:16:18,450 --> 00:16:20,416

Logan Macrae: me was a different type of education and I

490

00:16:20,476 --> 00:16:22,401

Logan Macrae: think that's kind of what my parents saw

491

00:16:22,441 --> 00:16:23,645

Logan Macrae: that they were okay with.

492

00:16:23,905 --> 00:16:25,871

Logan Macrae: I, you know, I had the opportunities

493

00:16:25,911 --> 00:16:29,442

Logan Macrae: through modeling to travel Truly to places

494

00:16:29,502 --> 00:16:31,408

Logan Macrae: I never would have ever gone to.

495

00:16:31,489 --> 00:16:33,194

Logan Macrae: I mean, the first, the first international

496

00:16:33,234 --> 00:16:36,866

Logan Macrae: job I ever booked was to Bali and you know

497

00:16:36,986 --> 00:16:38,692

Logan Macrae: I never would have been in Bali in my life

498

00:16:38,772 --> 00:16:39,635

Logan Macrae: had it not happened.

499

00:16:39,755 --> 00:16:41,901

Logan Macrae: Yeah, so and I think when you're, you know,

500

00:16:41,941 --> 00:16:43,385

Logan Macrae: when you're going across the world by

501

00:16:43,425 --> 00:16:46,378

Logan Macrae: yourself and having to Just get yourself to

502

00:16:46,419 --> 00:16:48,445

Logan Macrae: places and experience different cultures, I

503

00:16:48,485 --> 00:16:51,565

Logan Macrae: think there's A level of education in that

504

00:16:51,606 --> 00:16:53,736

Logan Macrae: that's so different than you know what a

505

00:16:53,816 --> 00:16:56,281

Logan Macrae: traditional education is, but it it means

506

00:16:56,341 --> 00:16:57,984

Logan Macrae: something and I think that was a big thing

507

00:16:58,004 --> 00:16:59,567

Logan Macrae: that my parents were like okay, you know

508

00:16:59,607 --> 00:17:02,238

Logan Macrae: this, there is, there is something

509

00:17:02,378 --> 00:17:04,464

Logan Macrae: substantial in what he's doing on that side.

510

00:17:04,524 --> 00:17:07,639

Marc Preston: I think, traveling, talking to the chef,

511

00:17:07,659 --> 00:17:09,164

Marc Preston: robert Irvine, a little bit, a little while

512

00:17:09,184 --> 00:17:11,321

Marc Preston: ago, and, and we were talking about Anthony

513

00:17:11,361 --> 00:17:13,754

Marc Preston: Bourdain, I'm going, that's the life I want.

514

00:17:13,774 --> 00:17:15,075

Marc Preston: You know, he was my spirit animal.

515

00:17:15,296 --> 00:17:16,926

Marc Preston: I was like that to be able to travel, to

516

00:17:16,947 --> 00:17:18,235

Marc Preston: sit down and eat with different people, and,

517

00:17:19,137 --> 00:17:20,820

Marc Preston: and then we the conversation drifted a

518

00:17:20,860 --> 00:17:22,243

Marc Preston: moment and to, like you know, if we all,

519

00:17:22,624 --> 00:17:26,076

Marc Preston: collectively, is a culture as a Species,

520

00:17:26,116 --> 00:17:28,322

Marc Preston: sat down and had meals together, you

521

00:17:28,342 --> 00:17:29,926

Marc Preston: realize, oh, we're more alike than we are

522

00:17:30,307 --> 00:17:31,819

Marc Preston: different, 100%.

523

00:17:32,576 --> 00:17:34,469

Marc Preston: One of the greatest educations, and I wish

524

00:17:34,509 --> 00:17:35,375

Marc Preston: I could have done more of that.

525

00:17:36,236 --> 00:17:38,459

Marc Preston: You know, as I mentioned once my youngest

526

00:17:38,479 --> 00:17:39,781

Marc Preston: graduates from high school, I think that's

527

00:17:39,842 --> 00:17:40,402

Marc Preston: on the radar.

528

00:17:40,683 --> 00:17:40,943

Logan Macrae: Yeah.

529

00:17:48,056 --> 00:17:49,841

Marc Preston: What kind of projects are you looking to

530

00:17:49,961 --> 00:17:50,182

Marc Preston: start?

531

00:17:50,371 --> 00:17:52,619

Marc Preston: You know, if I say here's a bucket list of

532

00:17:52,659 --> 00:17:55,208

Marc Preston: the kind of projects, or maybe even the

533

00:17:55,309 --> 00:17:57,474

Marc Preston: actors or directors, what kind of things

534

00:17:57,514 --> 00:18:00,160

Marc Preston: would you like to find on your resume?

535

00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,790

Logan Macrae: as they say, as time progresses, you know,

536

00:18:04,810 --> 00:18:09,838

Logan Macrae: I lean back into the idea that I would love

537

00:18:09,918 --> 00:18:13,965

Logan Macrae: to give a true character arc, even just in

538

00:18:14,025 --> 00:18:14,245

Logan Macrae: song.

539

00:18:14,590 --> 00:18:16,198

Logan Macrae: I don't know if I could sit there and give

540

00:18:16,318 --> 00:18:18,770

Logan Macrae: nine seasons to something, but I mean, of

541

00:18:18,850 --> 00:18:21,014

Logan Macrae: course anyone would take it as an actor,

542

00:18:21,194 --> 00:18:27,111

Logan Macrae: but I just would love to have the time it

543

00:18:27,151 --> 00:18:27,552

Logan Macrae: just even.

544

00:18:27,572 --> 00:18:29,016

Logan Macrae: I mean, ideal would be something along the

545

00:18:29,036 --> 00:18:32,191

Logan Macrae: lines of like a limited series where you

546

00:18:32,211 --> 00:18:34,398

Logan Macrae: can somewhat see a character through.

547

00:18:34,670 --> 00:18:36,077

Logan Macrae: And I think that's the biggest thing that

548

00:18:36,097 --> 00:18:38,769

Logan Macrae: I'm looking for is, you know, we create all

549

00:18:39,111 --> 00:18:41,301

Logan Macrae: of these backstories and these ideas and

550

00:18:41,361 --> 00:18:42,808

Logan Macrae: try to understand where each one of these

551

00:18:42,848 --> 00:18:45,696

Logan Macrae: characters is coming from and you only get

552

00:18:46,578 --> 00:18:47,902

Logan Macrae: X amount of time to do it.

553

00:18:48,230 --> 00:18:50,517

Logan Macrae: But I think if you really were given full

554

00:18:50,598 --> 00:18:54,289

Logan Macrae: play to really break down each piece of

555

00:18:54,330 --> 00:18:55,996

Logan Macrae: where somebody starts and where somebody

556

00:18:56,297 --> 00:18:59,388

Logan Macrae: ends on a larger scale like I said, limited

557

00:18:59,449 --> 00:19:01,934

Logan Macrae: series or even a full movie as a lead or

558

00:19:01,975 --> 00:19:03,758

Logan Macrae: whatever just something that gives me the

559

00:19:03,798 --> 00:19:07,615

Logan Macrae: chance to see more of the character.

560

00:19:08,790 --> 00:19:11,017

Logan Macrae: And then the other side is I've always

561

00:19:11,057 --> 00:19:11,940

Logan Macrae: wanted to do comedy.

562

00:19:12,311 --> 00:19:14,763

Logan Macrae: I you know comedy stuff I look at and I'm

563

00:19:14,783 --> 00:19:16,070

Logan Macrae: like you know, I would just love to go on

564

00:19:16,210 --> 00:19:18,075

Logan Macrae: that set where you could just play and play

565

00:19:18,115 --> 00:19:19,278

Logan Macrae: and play all day long.

566

00:19:20,630 --> 00:19:23,459

Logan Macrae: It just looks fun and I like the challenge

567

00:19:23,479 --> 00:19:23,980

Logan Macrae: of comedy.

568

00:19:24,050 --> 00:19:27,979

Logan Macrae: I think so many people they look at comedy

569

00:19:27,999 --> 00:19:29,563

Logan Macrae: and they're like, oh, that must be so easy.

570

00:19:29,710 --> 00:19:31,657

Logan Macrae: But comedy is probably one of the hardest

571

00:19:31,697 --> 00:19:32,339

Logan Macrae: things out there.

572

00:19:32,530 --> 00:19:34,354

Logan Macrae: But once you kind of pick up on little

573

00:19:34,415 --> 00:19:36,760

Logan Macrae: things you're like, oh, this is cool and

574

00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:37,542

Logan Macrae: this is crazy.

575

00:19:37,770 --> 00:19:40,274

Logan Macrae: What gets a laugh, what doesn't get a laugh?

576

00:19:40,830 --> 00:19:43,356

Logan Macrae: And I think the feedback in comedy is so

577

00:19:43,457 --> 00:19:47,166

Logan Macrae: instantaneous that that side of it's it's

578

00:19:47,387 --> 00:19:48,429

Logan Macrae: kind of what you're looking for as a

579

00:19:48,469 --> 00:19:48,690

Logan Macrae: performer.

580

00:19:48,951 --> 00:19:50,577

Marc Preston: And you mentioned the limited series thing

581

00:19:51,130 --> 00:19:53,015

Marc Preston: and we're kind of moving into that realm of

582

00:19:53,536 --> 00:19:56,022

Marc Preston: most things and streaming and whatnot.

583

00:19:56,570 --> 00:19:58,858

Marc Preston: I mean three seasons, that's pretty much it,

584

00:19:59,230 --> 00:20:00,975

Marc Preston: and now they're on, you know, be it Netflix

585

00:20:01,076 --> 00:20:01,938

Marc Preston: or Hulu or whatever.

586

00:20:02,790 --> 00:20:06,659

Marc Preston: So you no longer, I said not locked into,

587

00:20:06,739 --> 00:20:08,343

Marc Preston: but you know you no longer looking at, hey,

588

00:20:08,430 --> 00:20:09,754

Marc Preston: as long as we get this thing to run.

589

00:20:09,874 --> 00:20:11,820

Marc Preston: You know, I was just talking to my kids.

590

00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,076

Marc Preston: I said, man, like reruns used to be a big

591

00:20:14,156 --> 00:20:15,119

Marc Preston: thing back in the day.

592

00:20:15,310 --> 00:20:17,015

Marc Preston: You know you work on a series long enough.

593

00:20:17,456 --> 00:20:18,680

Marc Preston: That thing goes into syndication.

594

00:20:19,071 --> 00:20:20,336

Marc Preston: That's great money on the back end.

595

00:20:20,731 --> 00:20:21,715

Marc Preston: But they mentioned comedy.

596

00:20:21,890 --> 00:20:22,935

Marc Preston: What were you watching growing up?

597

00:20:23,450 --> 00:20:25,576

Marc Preston: What kind of things were you, be it movies

598

00:20:25,636 --> 00:20:26,458

Marc Preston: or TV shows.

599

00:20:26,498 --> 00:20:27,902

Marc Preston: What was, what was your jam?

600

00:20:28,110 --> 00:20:28,231

Logan Macrae: It's.

601

00:20:28,311 --> 00:20:30,516

Logan Macrae: You know the stuff that was always running

602

00:20:30,636 --> 00:20:33,672

Logan Macrae: in the background for comedy and I guess

603

00:20:33,692 --> 00:20:36,004

Logan Macrae: you don't realize as a kid how much it

604

00:20:36,184 --> 00:20:37,952

Logan Macrae: influenced you and stuff that you saw was

605

00:20:38,494 --> 00:20:39,939

Logan Macrae: the reruns of, like Seinfeld.

606

00:20:40,150 --> 00:20:42,194

Logan Macrae: You know, I remember, you know Seinfeld had

607

00:20:42,275 --> 00:20:46,363

Logan Macrae: that 435 o'clock slot and it was like on TV

608

00:20:46,550 --> 00:20:48,154

Logan Macrae: while mom and dad were cooking dinner, you

609

00:20:48,194 --> 00:20:48,395

Logan Macrae: know.

610

00:20:48,675 --> 00:20:51,021

Logan Macrae: So Seinfeld was there.

611

00:20:51,830 --> 00:20:53,735

Logan Macrae: And then I've actually revisited some of

612

00:20:53,775 --> 00:20:56,161

Logan Macrae: those comedies from that era that I was

613

00:20:56,222 --> 00:20:58,078

Logan Macrae: like, like Frasier I thought was the driest,

614

00:20:58,159 --> 00:20:59,827

Logan Macrae: most boring show in the world when I was a

615

00:20:59,888 --> 00:21:01,555

Logan Macrae: kid and I've gone back and rewatched

616

00:21:01,615 --> 00:21:02,016

Logan Macrae: Frasier.

617

00:21:02,550 --> 00:21:05,334

Logan Macrae: The show is hilarious, it's such a great

618

00:21:05,374 --> 00:21:05,535

Logan Macrae: show.

619

00:21:06,430 --> 00:21:08,337

Logan Macrae: My wife and I kind of cycle through

620

00:21:09,601 --> 00:21:11,849

Logan Macrae: different comedies and she likes to watch

621

00:21:11,869 --> 00:21:14,158

Logan Macrae: something nice, nice and like light before

622

00:21:14,218 --> 00:21:14,418

Logan Macrae: bed.

623

00:21:14,590 --> 00:21:16,115

Logan Macrae: So we cycle through comedies that are, you

624

00:21:16,135 --> 00:21:18,312

Logan Macrae: know, 20 minutes long, so that's something

625

00:21:18,353 --> 00:21:18,854

Logan Macrae: like that.

626

00:21:20,130 --> 00:21:22,376

Logan Macrae: So the ones growing up were probably

627

00:21:23,239 --> 00:21:27,877

Logan Macrae: Seinfeld and then, as I got older, one that

628

00:21:27,917 --> 00:21:29,601

Logan Macrae: I always circle back to.

629

00:21:29,641 --> 00:21:31,751

Logan Macrae: That I find hilarious, but I think it has a

630

00:21:31,791 --> 00:21:33,396

Logan Macrae: very specific time period.

631

00:21:33,476 --> 00:21:35,802

Logan Macrae: Was a new girl on Fox.

632

00:21:36,552 --> 00:21:38,216

Logan Macrae: I found that show hilarious, just because I

633

00:21:38,257 --> 00:21:38,838

Logan Macrae: looked at those.

634

00:21:38,939 --> 00:21:40,953

Marc Preston: I never saw that, and that's that's another

635

00:21:40,993 --> 00:21:42,718

Marc Preston: reason why I love like Netflix and all that

636

00:21:42,738 --> 00:21:43,881

Marc Preston: because these shows show up there.

637

00:21:44,952 --> 00:21:46,416

Marc Preston: I'm like, oh, like there's so much stuff

638

00:21:46,477 --> 00:21:48,853

Marc Preston: out there now it's almost impossible to

639

00:21:48,893 --> 00:21:51,452

Marc Preston: watch everything, and I kind of like that

640

00:21:51,472 --> 00:21:53,699

Marc Preston: because I saw them watched Game of Thrones.

641

00:21:54,150 --> 00:21:55,654

Marc Preston: So I'm like, oh, that could still be new to

642

00:21:55,695 --> 00:21:55,735

Marc Preston: me.

643

00:21:55,755 --> 00:21:57,139

Logan Macrae: Yeah, I haven't watched any of it, really.

644

00:21:57,870 --> 00:21:59,580

Logan Macrae: Like something's just life or whatever else,

645

00:21:59,620 --> 00:22:01,390

Logan Macrae: and having kids, you know you have to be

646

00:22:01,511 --> 00:22:03,942

Logan Macrae: diplomatic and you know something we'd well,

647

00:22:03,962 --> 00:22:05,770

Logan Macrae: it's a commitment to for some of them

648

00:22:05,810 --> 00:22:06,514

Logan Macrae: that's just like.

649

00:22:06,574 --> 00:22:08,524

Logan Macrae: I mean Game of Thrones, my goodness it's,

650

00:22:08,665 --> 00:22:10,612

Logan Macrae: you know to commit yourself to that entire,

651

00:22:10,773 --> 00:22:12,917

Logan Macrae: you know that entire show is just.

652

00:22:13,599 --> 00:22:15,443

Logan Macrae: That is a task in and of itself.

653

00:22:15,950 --> 00:22:16,030

Logan Macrae: What?

654

00:22:16,050 --> 00:22:19,040

Marc Preston: kind of movies were you watching growing up,

655

00:22:19,150 --> 00:22:20,334

Marc Preston: or what kind of, I mean even now?

656

00:22:20,354 --> 00:22:21,498

Marc Preston: What are you liking to check out?

657

00:22:22,350 --> 00:22:24,259

Logan Macrae: So one person I was talking about this the

658

00:22:24,299 --> 00:22:26,229

Logan Macrae: Christian Bale.

665

00:22:42,190 --> 00:22:44,196

Logan Macrae: If you look at everything that he's been in,

666

00:22:44,317 --> 00:22:48,029

Logan Macrae: it's just they're so wide ranging in, the

667

00:22:48,069 --> 00:22:50,174

Logan Macrae: characters that he plays are so all over.

674

00:22:59,089 --> 00:22:59,792

Marc Preston: years later.

Logan Macrae: comedies.

695

00:23:30,936 --> 00:23:32,841

Logan Macrae: You know, I think comedies are tough in the

696

00:23:32,901 --> 00:23:34,172

Logan Macrae: sense when you look back on them,

697

00:23:34,253 --> 00:23:36,258

Logan Macrae: especially movies, because they're very

698

00:23:36,599 --> 00:23:37,822

Logan Macrae: period set.

699

00:23:38,070 --> 00:23:39,436

Logan Macrae: You know, I mean I was in college at a

700

00:23:39,497 --> 00:23:42,008

Logan Macrae: certain time where, you know, will Ferrell

701

00:23:42,049 --> 00:23:44,077

Logan Macrae: So you know, you have your, you know, and

703

00:23:46,596 --> 00:23:48,300

705

00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:51,908

Logan Macrae: they're like, okay, this is the funniest

706

00:23:51,928 --> 00:23:52,491

Logan Macrae: thing we've ever seen.

707

00:23:52,552 --> 00:23:55,722

Logan Macrae: Probably not, but at the time in college

708

00:23:55,742 --> 00:23:56,850

Logan Macrae: you thought it was hilarious.

709

00:23:56,970 --> 00:23:59,658

Logan Macrae: Oh man, anything Judd Apatow is doing with

710

00:23:59,758 --> 00:24:00,219

Logan Macrae: Will Ferrell.

711

00:24:00,239 --> 00:24:02,303

Marc Preston: I mean absolutely Anchorman, and it's just

712

00:24:02,323 --> 00:24:02,870

Marc Preston: so ridiculous.

713

00:24:03,131 --> 00:24:05,517

Marc Preston: And when I'm teaching voiceover to students

00:24:05,577 --> 00:24:06,901

Marc Preston: I'm like listen, you got to buy him.

715

00:24:07,070 --> 00:24:09,256

00:24:11,750 --> 00:24:13,591

718

00:24:13,631 --> 00:24:15,878

719

00:24:15,918 --> 00:24:16,640

Marc Preston: works all the time.

720

00:24:16,660 --> 00:24:19,136

Announcer: You know, sorry, one of my, I could look at

721

00:24:19,196 --> 00:24:21,715

724

00:24:24,833 --> 00:24:27,101

Marc Preston: How did and what you're doing now?

725

00:24:27,181 --> 00:24:27,422

Marc Preston: How did?

726

00:24:27,703 --> 00:24:30,031

Marc Preston: How did where the crawdad sing land in your

727

00:24:30,051 --> 00:24:30,252

Marc Preston: lap?

728

00:24:30,292 --> 00:24:32,103

Marc Preston: There Just happened to be.

729

00:24:32,140 --> 00:24:32,773

Marc Preston: You're in New Orleans.

730

00:24:32,810 --> 00:24:33,795

Marc Preston: They were shooting here, or was that

731

00:24:33,833 --> 00:24:35,057

Marc Preston: something that you were pursuing?

732

00:24:35,290 --> 00:24:35,451

Logan Macrae: It was.

733

00:24:35,551 --> 00:24:35,792

Logan Macrae: It was.

734

00:24:36,655 --> 00:24:38,763

Logan Macrae: It was somewhat of a combination of that

735

00:24:39,165 --> 00:24:43,056

Logan Macrae: and I didn't really realize this until

736

00:24:43,357 --> 00:24:46,671

Logan Macrae: everything had wrapped and whatnot, when I

737

00:24:46,811 --> 00:24:48,875

Logan Macrae: put together the things that were in my

738

00:24:48,955 --> 00:24:50,478

Logan Macrae: life and the things that were in my

739

00:24:50,518 --> 00:24:52,282

Logan Macrae: character, the character that I played,

740

00:24:52,382 --> 00:24:55,153

Logan Macrae: jody's life, and I think it was just kind

741

00:24:55,233 --> 00:24:58,239

Logan Macrae: of harmonious that the there were a lot of

742

00:24:58,299 --> 00:25:02,813

Logan Macrae: similarities in terms of our Overall you

743

00:25:02,853 --> 00:25:04,776

Logan Macrae: know, values, in the way we look at life,

744

00:25:05,597 --> 00:25:07,539

Logan Macrae: not necessarily things we experienced.

745

00:25:07,700 --> 00:25:10,323

Logan Macrae: Jody the character experience some very

746

00:25:10,383 --> 00:25:11,845

Logan Macrae: extreme things that he had to deal with.

747

00:25:11,945 --> 00:25:15,395

Logan Macrae: But I think our similarities were the way

748

00:25:15,495 --> 00:25:18,380

Logan Macrae: we deal with adversity and I think you know

749

00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:19,802

Logan Macrae: some people say that you know there's a

750

00:25:19,822 --> 00:25:21,224

Logan Macrae: certain characters that are perfect for

751

00:25:21,264 --> 00:25:21,545

Logan Macrae: people.

752

00:25:22,411 --> 00:25:24,754

Logan Macrae: And I look at that with jody, where you

753

00:25:24,774 --> 00:25:28,179

Logan Macrae: know he has this very stoic kind of go

754

00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,803

Logan Macrae: after an approach to life and you know he

755

00:25:30,843 --> 00:25:32,365

Logan Macrae: doesn't allow things to kind of get him

756

00:25:32,445 --> 00:25:35,075

Logan Macrae: down and I see that in myself.

757

00:25:35,135 --> 00:25:38,551

Logan Macrae: You know, I think adversity for me has kind

758

00:25:38,571 --> 00:25:40,634

Logan Macrae: of honestly been something that was very

759

00:25:40,974 --> 00:25:42,937

Logan Macrae: you do, something that I went after when I

760

00:25:43,077 --> 00:25:45,520

Logan Macrae: saw I ran into adversity.

761

00:25:45,580 --> 00:25:48,244

Logan Macrae: It just kind of made me try harder and jody

762

00:25:48,284 --> 00:25:49,385

Logan Macrae: was very much like that.

763

00:25:49,485 --> 00:25:52,858

Logan Macrae: So I don't know, I guess, just perfect

764

00:25:52,878 --> 00:25:54,102

Logan Macrae: timing with all of it really.

765

00:25:54,711 --> 00:25:55,633

Marc Preston: It's kind of like that quote.

766

00:25:56,254 --> 00:25:58,077

Marc Preston: I'm probably misquoting it, but it's like a

767

00:25:58,118 --> 00:25:59,400

Marc Preston: sailor doesn't become a cap.

768

00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,304

Marc Preston: Learn how to become a captain in column C's

769

00:26:01,424 --> 00:26:02,025

Marc Preston: or something, was it?

770

00:26:02,045 --> 00:26:03,087

Marc Preston: You know that kind of thing?

771

00:26:03,127 --> 00:26:04,590

Logan Macrae: yes yeah, absolutely.

772

00:26:05,391 --> 00:26:07,474

Marc Preston: What was the experience like shooting it?

773

00:26:07,534 --> 00:26:09,277

Marc Preston: Was it, like you're saying, that you kind

774

00:26:09,297 --> 00:26:11,260

Marc Preston: of really identified with your character?

775

00:26:11,460 --> 00:26:12,021

Logan Macrae: you know it was.

776

00:26:12,201 --> 00:26:14,385

Logan Macrae: It was, first of all, I think the nicest

777

00:26:14,445 --> 00:26:16,648

Logan Macrae: thing was, you know, touching on daisy is,

778

00:26:18,572 --> 00:26:20,153

Logan Macrae: I guess, walking on to a set and meeting

779

00:26:20,213 --> 00:26:20,714

Logan Macrae: someone.

780

00:26:20,914 --> 00:26:22,696

Logan Macrae: You have certain expectations, you're just

781

00:26:22,736 --> 00:26:26,480

Logan Macrae: not sure how that's gonna go, but daisy was

782

00:26:26,700 --> 00:26:30,184

Logan Macrae: the most welcoming person and the nicest

783

00:26:30,224 --> 00:26:33,027

Logan Macrae: person and almost went out of her way to

784

00:26:33,407 --> 00:26:35,289

Logan Macrae: just make everybody feel as though they

785

00:26:35,309 --> 00:26:35,650

Logan Macrae: were a part of it.

786

00:26:35,670 --> 00:26:39,017

Logan Macrae: And I think that I probably wouldn't have

787

00:26:39,197 --> 00:26:41,584

Logan Macrae: accomplished what I did in the film without

788

00:26:41,664 --> 00:26:43,569

Logan Macrae: her, because I felt so comfortable from

789

00:26:43,589 --> 00:26:44,110

Logan Macrae: with her from day one.

790

00:26:46,593 --> 00:26:48,915

Logan Macrae: But also in shooting it was, you know, it

791

00:26:48,975 --> 00:26:50,397

Logan Macrae: wasn't always easy either.

792

00:26:50,497 --> 00:26:52,800

Logan Macrae: Day one I showed up and I had to shoot my

793

00:26:52,860 --> 00:26:54,962

Logan Macrae: biggest scene, which just in and of that,

794

00:26:55,543 --> 00:26:57,805

Logan Macrae: you know, is intimidating having to do that.

795

00:26:57,945 --> 00:27:00,432

Marc Preston: But it was kind of a trial by fire where I

796

00:27:00,472 --> 00:27:02,556

Marc Preston: really was like, okay, you know we're doing

797

00:27:02,596 --> 00:27:05,140

Marc Preston: this and we're gonna work through this and

798

00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:06,462

Marc Preston: you just have to get comfortable, very

799

00:27:06,523 --> 00:27:10,154

Marc Preston: quick Stories from actors about how things

800

00:27:10,194 --> 00:27:12,238

Marc Preston: are shot out of sequences not in sequences,

801

00:27:12,618 --> 00:27:14,622

Marc Preston: you know, it's not a linear thing and they

802

00:27:14,682 --> 00:27:17,192

Marc Preston: show up first day they meet their you know

803

00:27:17,212 --> 00:27:17,894

Marc Preston: some of the act with.

804

00:27:17,914 --> 00:27:19,318

Marc Preston: There's gotta be some kind of romantic

805

00:27:19,398 --> 00:27:21,411

Marc Preston: scene, it's like it's like, you know,

806

00:27:21,431 --> 00:27:22,934

Marc Preston: you're thrown right into the fire, so I was

807

00:27:22,954 --> 00:27:23,736

Marc Preston: wondering what that's like.

808

00:27:23,776 --> 00:27:26,001

Marc Preston: So, right, right, so you have to ramp up

809

00:27:26,041 --> 00:27:26,662

Marc Preston: really fast.

810

00:27:26,762 --> 00:27:29,773

Marc Preston: So Do you still have any kind of aspiration

811

00:27:29,874 --> 00:27:32,337

Marc Preston: to do the modeling thing again, or is that

812

00:27:32,377 --> 00:27:34,881

Marc Preston: kind of it was just a step to be where you

813

00:27:34,941 --> 00:27:36,723

Marc Preston: are right now, or is there some things you

814

00:27:36,924 --> 00:27:37,284

Marc Preston: still like?

815

00:27:37,645 --> 00:27:40,412

Logan Macrae: You know, I think that there are some

816

00:27:40,452 --> 00:27:41,714

Logan Macrae: things that I still like about it.

817

00:27:41,774 --> 00:27:44,098

Logan Macrae: You know, I think the you know the actual

818

00:27:44,178 --> 00:27:45,901

Logan Macrae: true fashion side of modeling.

819

00:27:45,921 --> 00:27:47,102

Logan Macrae: I think that there is an interest.

820

00:27:47,122 --> 00:27:49,771

Logan Macrae: I think each person has their own

821

00:27:49,831 --> 00:27:53,998

Logan Macrae: individual tastes and you know a overall

822

00:27:54,058 --> 00:27:56,482

Logan Macrae: style that I do like that side of it and

823

00:27:56,522 --> 00:27:59,953

Logan Macrae: I'd like to be Part of it in some sense,

824

00:28:00,013 --> 00:28:03,920

Logan Macrae: like that where you can't really pick and

825

00:28:03,940 --> 00:28:04,761

Logan Macrae: choose a model.

826

00:28:04,881 --> 00:28:08,832

Logan Macrae: But I would like to be more Picky in terms

827

00:28:08,892 --> 00:28:10,495

Logan Macrae: of what I work, just because there are

828

00:28:10,535 --> 00:28:12,659

Logan Macrae: certain brands and what they're doing and

829

00:28:12,739 --> 00:28:14,142

Logan Macrae: images that they're putting out there that

830

00:28:14,502 --> 00:28:15,845

Logan Macrae: I really support that.

831

00:28:15,990 --> 00:28:18,055

Marc Preston: Now did your closet fill up with stuff when

832

00:28:18,075 --> 00:28:19,398

Marc Preston: you're doing this, so where you like,

833

00:28:19,458 --> 00:28:21,903

Marc Preston: coming home with the wardrobe and whatnot.

834

00:28:22,290 --> 00:28:24,894

Logan Macrae: You know, that is that is the biggest

835

00:28:24,974 --> 00:28:26,816

Logan Macrae: modeling misconception.

836

00:28:26,876 --> 00:28:30,340

Logan Macrae: Like we as models, you get nothing, not a

837

00:28:30,380 --> 00:28:31,262

Logan Macrae: single thing from set.

838

00:28:31,342 --> 00:28:33,224

Logan Macrae: I mean, the number of shoes that I came

839

00:28:33,284 --> 00:28:36,312

Logan Macrae: home with something was Maybe, you know,

840

00:28:36,793 --> 00:28:38,656

Logan Macrae: one and thirty or something like that.

841

00:28:38,957 --> 00:28:41,140

Logan Macrae: It really wasn't anything and I always

842

00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:42,403

Logan Macrae: thought it was funny, because I think about

843

00:28:42,443 --> 00:28:45,392

Logan Macrae: these brands and I'm like we think you want

844

00:28:45,412 --> 00:28:47,355

Logan Macrae: your clothing on these people, but then

845

00:28:47,375 --> 00:28:48,938

Logan Macrae: when you start to look at the actual

846

00:28:49,018 --> 00:28:55,952

Logan Macrae: business side of it this clothing to

847

00:28:56,012 --> 00:28:58,395

Logan Macrae: continue to continue working through

848

00:28:58,916 --> 00:29:00,798

Logan Macrae: ramping up the line, going into production

849

00:29:00,858 --> 00:29:03,000

Logan Macrae: and going into stores and everything but

850

00:29:03,341 --> 00:29:05,423

Logan Macrae: yeah, it's funny, I wish we got half the

851

00:29:05,463 --> 00:29:07,866

Logan Macrae: stuff, but not necessarily how it works.

852

00:29:08,611 --> 00:29:10,273

Marc Preston: Yeah, my grandfather worked in that, in

853

00:29:10,293 --> 00:29:11,394

Marc Preston: that industry to a degree.

854

00:29:11,554 --> 00:29:13,797

Marc Preston: He was a model, he worked in the sales side,

855

00:29:13,817 --> 00:29:15,199

Marc Preston: so they always have these intermittent

856

00:29:15,459 --> 00:29:17,622

Marc Preston: sample sales, like these guys at the, I

857

00:29:17,642 --> 00:29:19,284

Marc Preston: remember is the Dallas apparel Marc.

858

00:29:19,324 --> 00:29:21,847

Marc Preston: You get real essentially fashionable stuff

859

00:29:21,867 --> 00:29:23,028

Marc Preston: from was nothing and not.

860

00:29:23,710 --> 00:29:26,073

00:29:28,636 --> 00:29:31,600

Marc Preston: There is your home base, or you kinda kind

864

00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,482

Marc Preston: of digging being down in the new orleans

865

00:29:33,602 --> 00:29:33,822

Marc Preston: area?

866

00:29:34,043 --> 00:29:35,564

Logan Macrae: you know there are things about new york

867

00:29:35,604 --> 00:29:37,126

Logan Macrae: that I I do miss.

868

00:29:37,811 --> 00:29:39,975

Logan Macrae: I think new york is a very inspiring city.

869

00:29:40,195 --> 00:29:41,919

Logan Macrae: I kinda like the relationship that I have

870

00:29:41,959 --> 00:29:43,742

Logan Macrae: with it now in the sense that I can pop in

871

00:29:43,782 --> 00:29:47,733

Logan Macrae: and pop out, being in new york city and

872

00:29:47,813 --> 00:29:50,437

Logan Macrae: spurts can be, you know, like I said, very

873

00:29:50,777 --> 00:29:53,100

Logan Macrae: inspiring and you're just surrounded by

874

00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,182

Logan Macrae: this energy in new york that people talk

875

00:29:55,222 --> 00:29:57,205

Logan Macrae: about and I still feel it to this day

876

00:29:57,265 --> 00:29:58,466

Logan Macrae: whenever I go back.

877

00:29:59,190 --> 00:30:01,613

Logan Macrae: But that energy can also be very draining

878

00:30:01,653 --> 00:30:03,715

Logan Macrae: if you're there, you know, long term, as

879

00:30:03,755 --> 00:30:04,655

Logan Macrae: your base to.

880

00:30:04,836 --> 00:30:06,998

Logan Macrae: So I kind of like the relationship that I

881

00:30:07,038 --> 00:30:09,360

Logan Macrae: have now and, you know, I like the

882

00:30:09,420 --> 00:30:10,861

Logan Macrae: relationship that I have with new orleans

883

00:30:10,921 --> 00:30:11,302

Logan Macrae: as well.

884

00:30:11,382 --> 00:30:15,766

Logan Macrae: It's new orleans is a special city and it's

885

00:30:15,926 --> 00:30:16,907

Logan Macrae: cool, cool place.

886

00:30:17,410 --> 00:30:18,532

Logan Macrae: I was talking to somebody the other day

887

00:30:18,572 --> 00:30:19,734

Logan Macrae: about new orleans and I was like you know,

888

00:30:20,195 --> 00:30:21,417

Logan Macrae: the thing about new orleans, new orleans

889

00:30:21,437 --> 00:30:22,960

Logan Macrae: that I love is the same thing that I love

890

00:30:22,980 --> 00:30:25,504

Logan Macrae: about european cities, in the sense that

891

00:30:26,051 --> 00:30:28,395

Logan Macrae: you can walk around new orleans with

892

00:30:28,495 --> 00:30:31,381

Logan Macrae: nowhere to actually go and you just see all

893

00:30:31,421 --> 00:30:32,823

Logan Macrae: these homes and everything with all this

894

00:30:32,883 --> 00:30:34,531

Logan Macrae: history, and it's beautiful.

895

00:30:34,591 --> 00:30:36,374

Logan Macrae: It's the same sense is walking around paris

896

00:30:36,434 --> 00:30:36,514

Logan Macrae: is.

897

00:30:36,534 --> 00:30:38,056

Logan Macrae: You don't have to have somewhere you need

898

00:30:38,076 --> 00:30:38,357

Logan Macrae: to go.

899

00:30:38,417 --> 00:30:40,039

Logan Macrae: In paris you can just walk around looking

900

00:30:40,079 --> 00:30:41,622

Logan Macrae: at all the buildings, thinking it's amazing,

901

00:30:41,642 --> 00:30:43,384

Logan Macrae: and I think new orleans kind of has that

902

00:30:43,424 --> 00:30:44,205

Logan Macrae: vibe on a certain.

903

00:30:44,470 --> 00:30:46,192

Marc Preston: You know, your wife grow up in new orleans

904

00:30:46,252 --> 00:30:47,714

Marc Preston: proper no, she didn't.

905

00:30:47,754 --> 00:30:49,376

Marc Preston: She grew up on the north shore, so she was

906

00:30:49,476 --> 00:30:52,059

Marc Preston: outside of it I know at least one of my

907

00:30:52,079 --> 00:30:53,260

Marc Preston: youngest daughter is gonna ask like, did

908

00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:53,881

Marc Preston: she go to my school?

909

00:30:53,901 --> 00:30:55,302

Marc Preston: Because that's a big thing people don't

910

00:30:55,342 --> 00:30:56,203

Marc Preston: understand out.

911

00:30:56,223 --> 00:30:57,905

Marc Preston: You ask anybody anywhere in the country

912

00:30:58,045 --> 00:30:58,686

Marc Preston: where'd you go to school?

913

00:30:58,706 --> 00:31:00,212

Marc Preston: They always tell you what university of

914

00:31:00,272 --> 00:31:01,875

Marc Preston: texas or whatever have you know here?

915

00:31:01,895 --> 00:31:03,197

Logan Macrae: they tell you what high school they went to

916

00:31:04,199 --> 00:31:05,702

Logan Macrae: all the catholic schools here it's the

917

00:31:05,762 --> 00:31:08,732

Logan Macrae: craziest thing and you know every single

918

00:31:08,793 --> 00:31:10,915

Logan Macrae: person that my wife meets somewhere else,

919

00:31:10,976 --> 00:31:12,878

Logan Macrae: that they find out they're from new orleans.

920

00:31:13,559 --> 00:31:16,703

Logan Macrae: They will find a connection within two

921

00:31:16,764 --> 00:31:18,025

Logan Macrae: minutes of speaking to someone.

922

00:31:18,065 --> 00:31:20,374

Logan Macrae: It's like you know it is a big city but for

923

00:31:20,434 --> 00:31:22,880

Logan Macrae: some reason it's so tight knit on a certain

924

00:31:22,900 --> 00:31:23,962

Logan Macrae: level to and it is.

925

00:31:24,022 --> 00:31:25,586

Logan Macrae: It's all about the high schools and that's

926

00:31:25,606 --> 00:31:27,049

Logan Macrae: the easiest way to figure out if you know

927

00:31:27,069 --> 00:31:27,310

Logan Macrae: someone.

928

00:31:27,771 --> 00:31:29,357

Marc Preston: Yeah, you really like two degrees of

929

00:31:29,418 --> 00:31:30,422

Marc Preston: separation from anybody.

930

00:31:30,462 --> 00:31:31,907

Marc Preston: It seems like you know I've been here on

931

00:31:31,948 --> 00:31:35,374

Marc Preston: and off for like Three years and I've spent

932

00:31:35,414 --> 00:31:37,917

Marc Preston: time in southern california and back to

933

00:31:37,957 --> 00:31:40,320

Marc Preston: dallas and I still have to use gps to get

934

00:31:40,380 --> 00:31:42,302

Marc Preston: some parts new orleans because it follows

935

00:31:42,322 --> 00:31:44,245

Marc Preston: the curve of the river it's not laid out on

936

00:31:44,285 --> 00:31:46,592

Marc Preston: a grid and my modeling.

937

00:31:46,612 --> 00:31:56,047

Marc Preston: But so the so how are you spending your

938

00:31:56,067 --> 00:31:56,327

Marc Preston: days?

939

00:31:56,407 --> 00:31:59,852

Marc Preston: Mostly are you are doing traveling for work,

940

00:31:59,912 --> 00:32:02,256

Marc Preston: or you just take a little bit of a break.

941

00:32:02,601 --> 00:32:05,347

Logan Macrae: Yeah, you know, as of late we've been

942

00:32:05,407 --> 00:32:07,772

Logan Macrae: ramping up with press stuff for crotch.

943

00:32:07,872 --> 00:32:12,167

Logan Macrae: So I was up in the New York City area a

944

00:32:12,208 --> 00:32:14,633

Logan Macrae: couple weeks ago and then some local stuff

945

00:32:14,713 --> 00:32:15,013

Logan Macrae: here.

946

00:32:16,301 --> 00:32:17,663

Logan Macrae: So it's a mix.

947

00:32:17,723 --> 00:32:19,265

Logan Macrae: And then obviously there's all the audition

948

00:32:19,305 --> 00:32:20,767

Logan Macrae: work to that I'm going through.

949

00:32:20,927 --> 00:32:23,791

Logan Macrae: So it's really ramping up for the movie.

950

00:32:23,891 --> 00:32:25,994

Logan Macrae: And then you know my day to day and just

951

00:32:26,054 --> 00:32:27,356

Logan Macrae: kind of taking it easy.

952

00:32:27,660 --> 00:32:29,122

Logan Macrae: I just learned to kind of take my.

953

00:32:30,343 --> 00:32:31,384

Logan Macrae: I've learned to take my.

954

00:32:31,784 --> 00:32:34,307

Logan Macrae: You know, my roles and work have come

955

00:32:34,487 --> 00:32:34,887

Logan Macrae: easier.

956

00:32:34,947 --> 00:32:37,850

Logan Macrae: Before I would panic a lot whenever nothing

957

00:32:37,870 --> 00:32:39,932

Logan Macrae: was going on, but I finally got into a

958

00:32:39,972 --> 00:32:41,554

Logan Macrae: point where I'm like now this is just kind

959

00:32:41,594 --> 00:32:43,776

Logan Macrae: of part of the flow and I, if I have

960

00:32:43,816 --> 00:32:45,762

Logan Macrae: nothing going on, I just kind of do

961

00:32:45,802 --> 00:32:48,627

Logan Macrae: something that I enjoy get back to, you

962

00:32:48,647 --> 00:32:50,670

Logan Macrae: know, stay in shape or whatever I can.

963

00:32:50,730 --> 00:32:53,315

Logan Macrae: That just is kind of self maintenance.

964

00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,403

Marc Preston: Now I have to ask because I mean, you know

965

00:32:55,444 --> 00:32:57,027

Marc Preston: this, the whole New Orleans thing, where is

966

00:32:57,347 --> 00:32:58,810

Marc Preston: where you're, like, you have a top three

967

00:32:58,850 --> 00:33:00,454

Marc Preston: places, you like to hit the grab a bite to

968

00:33:00,514 --> 00:33:03,946

Marc Preston: eat, and you know because you're probably

969

00:33:03,986 --> 00:33:05,630

Marc Preston: within walking distance is some good places,

970

00:33:05,690 --> 00:33:06,011

Marc Preston: I'm sure.

971

00:33:06,340 --> 00:33:09,383

Logan Macrae: chargrilled oysters and go in there for

975

00:33:17,092 --> 00:33:17,592

Logan Macrae: French seventy five, that's a great way to

979

00:33:23,665 --> 00:33:24,208

Logan Macrae: start a night.

980

00:33:25,321 --> 00:33:26,832

Marc Preston: That seems to be the place where I take

981

00:33:26,872 --> 00:33:27,900

Marc Preston: most people to come to town.

982

00:33:28,020 --> 00:33:30,570

Marc Preston: I'm like you know, they say, if I see the

983

00:33:30,610 --> 00:33:32,417

Marc Preston: French Quarter once a year, that's, that's

984

00:33:32,658 --> 00:33:33,080

Marc Preston: a rarity.

985

00:33:33,180 --> 00:33:33,561

Marc Preston: I never.

986

00:33:34,242 --> 00:33:35,846

Marc Preston: People think, oh, you're, you're all.

987

00:33:35,866 --> 00:33:37,510

Marc Preston: It's like people New York saying, oh, do

988

00:33:37,550 --> 00:33:38,832

Marc Preston: you go to Times Square all the time?

989

00:33:39,013 --> 00:33:41,829

Logan Macrae: It's cool.

Speaker:

00:36:08,662 --> 00:36:11,391

00:36:11,552 --> 00:36:13,920

Logan Macrae: thriller that Apple TV is really seeing.

Speaker:

00:36:14,100 --> 00:36:15,807

Logan Macrae: he did.

Speaker:

00:36:19,180 --> 00:36:20,723

Marc Preston: He was one of the very first interviews I

Speaker:

00:36:20,763 --> 00:36:26,934

Marc Preston: ever did back in um, oh god, 93, 92, 93.

Speaker:

00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,228

Marc Preston: He was the nicest guy and I, uh but uh, but

Speaker:

00:36:30,248 --> 00:36:32,101

Marc Preston: that looks like a great film, greg Keneer I

Speaker:

00:36:32,141 --> 00:36:33,727

Marc Preston: mean, who doesn't love Greg Keneer?

Speaker:

00:36:33,867 --> 00:36:33,988

Logan Macrae: Yeah, it's yes.

Speaker:

00:36:36,405 --> 00:36:38,349

Logan Macrae: It should be a really cool storyline.

Speaker:

00:36:39,972 --> 00:36:40,694

Logan Macrae: I'm excited for it.

Speaker:

00:36:40,981 --> 00:36:42,186

Logan Macrae: The period piece of it too.

Speaker:

00:36:42,841 --> 00:36:44,865

Logan Macrae: It was funny shooting in this house that it

Speaker:

00:36:44,905 --> 00:36:45,686

Logan Macrae: was just a.

Speaker:

00:36:46,268 --> 00:36:47,690

Logan Macrae: It was straight out of the 90s and it was

Speaker:

00:36:47,711 --> 00:36:48,833

Logan Macrae: just wild walking into.

Speaker:

00:36:49,581 --> 00:36:51,306

Marc Preston: Oh, so it's a period that was set in the

Speaker:

00:36:51,347 --> 00:36:51,648

Marc Preston: 90s.

Speaker:

00:36:51,688 --> 00:36:54,746

Logan Macrae: You say so part, yeah, part of it it was.

Speaker:

00:36:54,986 --> 00:36:57,091

Logan Macrae: Yeah, basically the storyline was through

Speaker:

00:36:57,111 --> 00:36:57,993

Logan Macrae: the 90s and I was.

Speaker:

00:36:58,180 --> 00:37:01,567

Logan Macrae: I was very much on the early portion of

Speaker:

00:37:02,229 --> 00:37:04,674

Logan Macrae: Taren Egerton's backstory a little bit.

Speaker:

00:37:05,541 --> 00:37:08,487

Logan Macrae: I played a high school friend of his, which

Speaker:

00:37:08,527 --> 00:37:10,050

Logan Macrae: was fun because you just have to.

Speaker:

00:37:10,131 --> 00:37:11,801

Logan Macrae: You know, I got to play this, this

Speaker:

00:37:11,861 --> 00:37:13,786

Logan Macrae: character that just never kind of grew up

Speaker:

00:37:13,866 --> 00:37:15,610

Logan Macrae: and was living in the glory days of high

Speaker:

00:37:15,650 --> 00:37:16,332

Logan Macrae: school football.

Speaker:

00:37:16,432 --> 00:37:19,587

Logan Macrae: So it's fun to kind of be that way for a

Speaker:

00:37:19,627 --> 00:37:20,008

Logan Macrae: little bit.

Speaker:

00:37:20,940 --> 00:37:23,387

Marc Preston: I did see you were doing a devotion.

Speaker:

00:37:23,828 --> 00:37:24,911

Marc Preston: Uh, what's, what's that about?

Speaker:

00:37:25,380 --> 00:37:30,931

Logan Macrae: So devotion follows the story of the first

Speaker:

00:37:31,272 --> 00:37:36,042

Logan Macrae: African American I'm not going to get the

Speaker:

00:37:36,082 --> 00:37:38,808

Logan Macrae: exact name right in terms of, but basically

Speaker:

00:37:38,848 --> 00:37:43,584

Logan Macrae: he was a pilot but a certain portion of the

Speaker:

00:37:43,964 --> 00:37:46,209

Logan Macrae: armed forces but he was the first African

Speaker:

00:37:46,249 --> 00:37:49,014

Logan Macrae: American in that part of the arms forces

Speaker:

00:37:49,901 --> 00:37:52,190

Logan Macrae: and it follows the story of him and

Speaker:

00:37:52,250 --> 00:37:53,916

Logan Macrae: everything that he experienced, kind of

Speaker:

00:37:53,956 --> 00:37:55,742

Logan Macrae: traveling the world and everything.

Speaker:

00:37:55,902 --> 00:37:58,709

Logan Macrae: So I had a little role in there for that,

Speaker:

00:37:58,949 --> 00:38:03,262

Logan Macrae: playing Nikki Hilton, which was which was

Speaker:

00:38:03,303 --> 00:38:06,129

Logan Macrae: cool just seeing the whole set because it

Speaker:

00:38:06,190 --> 00:38:10,745

Logan Macrae: again is a period piece that, yeah, that

Speaker:

00:38:10,846 --> 00:38:12,793

Logan Macrae: one should look great, I think they're.

Speaker:

00:38:12,933 --> 00:38:14,961

Logan Macrae: They're intentionally separating it from

Speaker:

00:38:15,021 --> 00:38:16,745

Logan Macrae: Top Gun because there's some really great

Speaker:

00:38:17,166 --> 00:38:19,392

Logan Macrae: flying sequences and stuff in that film as

Speaker:

00:38:19,432 --> 00:38:19,633

Logan Macrae: well.

Speaker:

00:38:20,803 --> 00:38:22,270

Marc Preston: Well, before we wrap up, one thing I always

Speaker:

00:38:22,310 --> 00:38:23,978

Marc Preston: love to do is have my seven questions.

Speaker:

00:38:23,998 --> 00:38:26,004

Marc Preston: I like to kind of throw out, but I kind of

Speaker:

00:38:26,064 --> 00:38:27,748

Marc Preston: get to know you just do it purely for fun,

Speaker:

00:38:27,949 --> 00:38:29,453

Marc Preston: and I start off with one that it is

Speaker:

00:38:30,260 --> 00:38:31,904

Marc Preston: fortuitously a food question.

Speaker:

00:38:32,005 --> 00:38:34,411

Marc Preston: But what's your favorite comfort food?

Speaker:

00:38:34,451 --> 00:38:37,103

Marc Preston: That thing that you always like to have

Speaker:

00:38:37,143 --> 00:38:38,647

Marc Preston: around, or you had a rough day, you just

Speaker:

00:38:38,667 --> 00:38:40,372

Marc Preston: sit down and go to town on it.

Speaker:

00:38:41,460 --> 00:38:42,382

Logan Macrae: Comfort food.

Speaker:

00:38:42,823 --> 00:38:46,329

Logan Macrae: You know, I in maybe this isn't something

Speaker:

00:38:46,389 --> 00:38:49,154

Logan Macrae: at home, but I love authentic Mexican food.

Logan Macrae: I will search out an authentic Mexican spot

Speaker:

00:38:51,807 --> 00:38:52,629

Logan Macrae: I don't know what it is, it just I love it.

Speaker:

00:38:54,340 --> 00:38:56,121

Logan Macrae: really good.

Speaker:

00:39:30,987 --> 00:39:33,437

Speaker:

00:39:35,248 --> 00:39:36,215

Marc Preston: going to be sitting down with three people,

Speaker:

00:39:36,235 --> 00:39:37,623

Marc Preston: you're going to have a cup of coffee, talk

Speaker:

00:39:37,683 --> 00:39:40,252

Marc Preston: story for a few hours, living or not.

Speaker:

00:39:40,614 --> 00:39:42,139

Marc Preston: Who would those three people be you'd like

Speaker:

00:39:42,159 --> 00:39:42,841

Marc Preston: to sit down with?

Speaker:

00:39:43,782 --> 00:39:44,924

Marc Preston: Wow?

Speaker:

00:39:47,949 --> 00:39:51,335

Logan Macrae: So, going back to my stoicism, I will say I

Speaker:

00:39:51,395 --> 00:39:54,280

Logan Macrae: think Marcus Aurelius would be very

Speaker:

00:39:54,340 --> 00:39:56,134

Logan Macrae: interesting just because of what he

Speaker:

00:39:56,252 --> 00:39:58,726

Logan Macrae: experienced in his stoic philosophy and

Speaker:

00:39:58,844 --> 00:39:59,325

Logan Macrae: whatnot.

Speaker:

00:39:59,443 --> 00:40:01,385

Logan Macrae: There's some like memoirs and stuff that I

Speaker:

00:40:01,505 --> 00:40:04,892

Logan Macrae: read that were literally just his diary, so

Speaker:

00:40:04,933 --> 00:40:06,683

Logan Macrae: he never really expected it to become

Speaker:

00:40:06,783 --> 00:40:08,828

Logan Macrae: public, but they're very, very interesting.

Speaker:

00:40:10,472 --> 00:40:14,242

Logan Macrae: And then, you know, I had a friend of mine

Speaker:

00:40:14,262 --> 00:40:15,388

Logan Macrae: believes this and I think too.

Speaker:

00:40:15,489 --> 00:40:16,675

Logan Macrae: I think somebody that would be very

Speaker:

00:40:16,716 --> 00:40:18,385

Logan Macrae: interesting from his life experiences would

Speaker:

00:40:18,425 --> 00:40:19,671

Logan Macrae: have to be Barack Obama.

Speaker:

00:40:19,711 --> 00:40:21,138

Logan Macrae: I would love to sit down with that man.

Speaker:

00:40:21,158 --> 00:40:23,549

Logan Macrae: I think everything that he accomplished and

Speaker:

00:40:23,609 --> 00:40:25,296

Logan Macrae: his upbringing would be very, very

Speaker:

00:40:25,376 --> 00:40:25,919

Logan Macrae: interesting.

Speaker:

00:40:25,939 --> 00:40:28,045

Marc Preston: Well, he gets mentioned regularly here,

Speaker:

00:40:28,125 --> 00:40:28,687

Marc Preston: without a doubt.

Speaker:

00:40:29,690 --> 00:40:31,776

Logan Macrae: Really, yeah, yeah, I think.

Speaker:

00:40:31,896 --> 00:40:34,403

Speaker:

00:40:34,423 --> 00:40:35,666

Logan Macrae: He still accomplishes this day.

Speaker:

00:40:35,686 --> 00:40:36,067

Logan Macrae: It would be.

Speaker:

00:40:36,168 --> 00:40:37,912

Logan Macrae: It would be a phenomenal person to sit down

Speaker:

00:40:37,952 --> 00:40:38,132

Logan Macrae: with.

Speaker:

00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,848

Logan Macrae: And then I'm trying to think you know, I I

Speaker:

00:40:41,888 --> 00:40:43,693

Logan Macrae: want to lean sports because I like sports.

Speaker:

00:40:46,020 --> 00:40:47,183

Logan Macrae: I'm going to throw out this one just

Speaker:

00:40:47,204 --> 00:40:48,306

Logan Macrae: because I'm such a big fan.

Speaker:

00:40:48,447 --> 00:40:51,404

Logan Macrae: I love Nikola Jokic from the Denver Nuggets.

Speaker:

00:40:51,524 --> 00:40:52,870

Logan Macrae: He's the Denver Nuggets center.

Speaker:

00:40:52,951 --> 00:40:54,678

Speaker:

00:40:54,698 --> 00:40:56,063

Logan Macrae: Just give it a shout out to Denver.

Speaker:

00:40:56,143 --> 00:40:58,831

Logan Macrae: But a Serbian basketball player that

Speaker:

00:40:58,872 --> 00:41:01,580

Logan Macrae: doesn't fit basketball standards and style,

Speaker:

00:41:01,620 --> 00:41:03,633

Logan Macrae: but I think he'd be a cool guy to talk

Speaker:

00:41:03,698 --> 00:41:03,998

Logan Macrae: about.

Speaker:

00:41:04,064 --> 00:41:05,271

Logan Macrae: Oh, wow, dvd.

Speaker:

00:42:02,428 --> 00:42:09,220

Logan Macrae: Wow, I really it would have to be something

Speaker:

00:42:09,241 --> 00:42:11,565

Logan Macrae: that I could watch over and over, just in

Speaker:

00:42:11,585 --> 00:42:13,410

Logan Macrae: the sense that it would be intriguing.

Speaker:

00:42:13,470 --> 00:42:15,556

Logan Macrae: So it's might be a weird one, but I'm going

Speaker:

00:42:15,576 --> 00:42:18,213

Logan Macrae: to say Inception, just because you could

Speaker:

00:42:18,253 --> 00:42:19,678

Logan Macrae: think about it a million different ways.

Speaker:

00:42:19,879 --> 00:42:22,048

Logan Macrae: So I'm going to say that one that's a great

Speaker:

00:42:22,068 --> 00:42:22,772

Logan Macrae: way of looking at it.

Speaker:

00:42:22,832 --> 00:42:24,743

Marc Preston: Yeah, anything Christopher Nolan does

Speaker:

00:42:24,783 --> 00:42:25,988

Marc Preston: you're going to be sitting there like it's

Speaker:

00:42:26,028 --> 00:42:27,392

Marc Preston: a different movie each time, depending on

Speaker:

00:42:27,412 --> 00:42:28,174

Marc Preston: your frame of mind?

Speaker:

00:42:28,234 --> 00:42:30,650

Logan Macrae: Yeah, I mean a tenant, I can't get my mind

Speaker:

00:42:30,670 --> 00:42:32,215

Speaker:

00:42:32,255 --> 00:42:32,716

Logan Macrae: four times.

Speaker:

00:42:33,066 --> 00:42:33,988

Marc Preston: I still haven't seen that.

Speaker:

00:42:34,028 --> 00:42:35,011

Marc Preston: I want to streaming.

Speaker:

00:42:35,051 --> 00:42:36,856

Marc Preston: I got to go watch it on HBO Max I think

Speaker:

00:42:36,936 --> 00:42:37,487

Marc Preston: it's good.

Speaker:

00:42:37,848 --> 00:42:40,238

Logan Macrae: It's good, but again you need a few views,

Speaker:

00:42:40,279 --> 00:42:41,162

Logan Macrae: which is even more.

Speaker:

00:42:41,182 --> 00:42:42,467

Logan Macrae: You know more of a task.

Speaker:

00:42:43,791 --> 00:42:51,488

Logan Macrae: And then album Jay-Z's blueprint Very good.

Speaker:

00:42:51,669 --> 00:42:52,794

Marc Preston: Very good, all right.

Speaker:

00:42:52,814 --> 00:42:53,920

Marc Preston: Now, if you're going to say, from the time

Speaker:

00:42:53,940 --> 00:42:55,687

Marc Preston: you wake up to the time you put your head

Speaker:

00:42:55,707 --> 00:42:57,532

Marc Preston: down with a pillow at night, definition of

Speaker:

00:42:57,573 --> 00:42:59,810

Marc Preston: a perfect day for you, what would be that

Speaker:

00:42:59,850 --> 00:43:01,818

Marc Preston: day, what would the component parts be of

Speaker:

00:43:01,838 --> 00:43:04,329

Marc Preston: that day, that is, waking up with a very

Speaker:

00:43:04,389 --> 00:43:06,318

Marc Preston: good cup of coffee because nothing starts

Speaker:

00:43:06,338 --> 00:43:08,667

Marc Preston: my day poorly is like a bad cup of coffee,

Speaker:

00:43:10,533 --> 00:43:11,457

Marc Preston: just with my books.

Speaker:

00:43:11,517 --> 00:43:13,604

Logan Macrae: I start every day with a coffee and some

Speaker:

00:43:13,664 --> 00:43:15,428

Logan Macrae: books that I just read a couple of chapters

Speaker:

00:43:15,588 --> 00:43:17,451

Logan Macrae: of, and I think that that puts me in the

Speaker:

00:43:17,532 --> 00:43:19,235

Logan Macrae: right mindset.

Speaker:

00:43:21,765 --> 00:43:23,572

Logan Macrae: You know, a long walk with my wife and the

Speaker:

00:43:23,632 --> 00:43:26,423

Logan Macrae: dogs, just because I think walking is

Speaker:

00:43:26,544 --> 00:43:27,971

Logan Macrae: probably one of the best things anybody can

Speaker:

00:43:28,011 --> 00:43:30,102

Logan Macrae: do, a on exercise and B mentally.

Speaker:

00:43:30,162 --> 00:43:31,567

Logan Macrae: It just kind of clears the head and puts

Speaker:

00:43:31,587 --> 00:43:32,389

Logan Macrae: you in the right place.

Speaker:

00:43:36,781 --> 00:43:38,726

Logan Macrae: And then, you know, I did probably just

Speaker:

00:43:38,746 --> 00:43:40,593

Logan Macrae: touch in base with my parents.

Speaker:

00:43:40,754 --> 00:43:43,043

Logan Macrae: You know I talked to my parents a lot.

Speaker:

00:43:43,123 --> 00:43:45,770

Logan Macrae: I talk to them almost every single day and

Speaker:

00:43:45,950 --> 00:43:46,832

Logan Macrae: you know they're far away.

Speaker:

00:43:46,912 --> 00:43:50,486

Logan Macrae: But I think just being able to do that

Speaker:

00:43:50,546 --> 00:43:51,548

Logan Macrae: means something to me.

Speaker:

00:43:52,992 --> 00:43:54,436

Logan Macrae: And then some level of accomplishment.

Speaker:

00:43:54,536 --> 00:43:56,308

Logan Macrae: I think that you know there's something in

Speaker:

00:43:56,348 --> 00:43:58,313

Logan Macrae: there that the days that I actually go

Speaker:

00:43:58,373 --> 00:44:01,913

Logan Macrae: about really setting goals and I can kind

Speaker:

00:44:01,953 --> 00:44:04,261

Logan Macrae: of cross those all off the list, I just go

Speaker:

00:44:04,281 --> 00:44:05,746

Logan Macrae: to bed and sleep a little bit better at

Speaker:

00:44:05,786 --> 00:44:06,007

Logan Macrae: night.

Speaker:

00:44:06,147 --> 00:44:09,815

Logan Macrae: So I think some level of you know just goal

Speaker:

00:44:09,855 --> 00:44:10,817

Logan Macrae: to accomplish that day.

Speaker:

00:44:11,685 --> 00:44:12,026

Marc Preston: Very good.

Speaker:

00:44:12,467 --> 00:44:13,491

Marc Preston: That comes up quite frequently.

Speaker:

00:44:13,511 --> 00:44:15,557

Marc Preston: That's a good thing to get accomplished.

Speaker:

00:44:15,858 --> 00:44:17,495

Marc Preston: I talked to Tommy Chong yesterday and he

Speaker:

00:44:17,515 --> 00:44:18,984

Marc Preston: said just to get my garage clean, that

Speaker:

00:44:19,024 --> 00:44:21,475

Speaker:

00:44:21,516 --> 00:44:22,982

Speaker:

00:44:23,002 --> 00:44:23,967

Logan Macrae: Yeah, it's truly.

Speaker:

00:44:26,436 --> 00:44:27,501

Logan Macrae: It's like my backyard.

Speaker:

00:44:27,561 --> 00:44:29,248

Logan Macrae: You know, everything grows like a jungle

Speaker:

00:44:29,308 --> 00:44:32,630

Logan Macrae: down here, yeah, and it's about to go into

Speaker:

00:44:32,670 --> 00:44:33,612

Marc Preston: Yeah, now if?

Speaker:

00:44:35,015 --> 00:44:35,957

Marc Preston: Last couple of questions.

Speaker:

00:44:36,325 --> 00:44:38,874

Marc Preston: If you weren't acting, if you had model, if

Speaker:

00:44:39,596 --> 00:44:42,085

Marc Preston: anything entertained, if another was really

Speaker:

00:44:42,426 --> 00:44:43,489

Marc Preston: well, let's just say, if acting and

Speaker:

00:44:43,529 --> 00:44:45,615

Marc Preston: modeling was not on the radar, what would

Speaker:

00:44:45,635 --> 00:44:46,686

Marc Preston: your vocation be?

Speaker:

00:44:46,766 --> 00:44:48,390

Marc Preston: What would you want to, what would you

Speaker:

00:44:48,410 --> 00:44:49,533

Marc Preston: think you would find joy doing?

Speaker:

00:44:50,925 --> 00:44:51,487

Logan Macrae: You know there was a.

Speaker:

00:44:51,527 --> 00:44:53,493

Logan Macrae: There was a point in time and I did almost

Speaker:

00:44:53,553 --> 00:44:55,566

Logan Macrae: head in that direction and I think if I was

Speaker:

00:44:55,647 --> 00:45:02,158

Logan Macrae: looking for just a really it's something

Speaker:

00:45:02,178 --> 00:45:04,189

Speaker:

00:45:04,230 --> 00:45:05,858

Logan Macrae: with what I'm doing with my life is I

Speaker:

00:45:05,918 --> 00:45:07,466

Logan Macrae: almost went into teaching for a little

Speaker:

00:45:07,486 --> 00:45:07,747

Logan Macrae: while.

Speaker:

00:45:07,807 --> 00:45:09,193

Logan Macrae: I'm not sure exactly what level.

Speaker:

00:45:09,233 --> 00:45:12,425

Logan Macrae: I would have wanted to do it, but I liked

Speaker:

00:45:12,525 --> 00:45:13,067

Logan Macrae: that idea.

Speaker:

00:45:13,127 --> 00:45:15,877

Logan Macrae: You know, I think helping youth and, you

Speaker:

00:45:15,897 --> 00:45:18,926

Logan Macrae: know, being around those type of minds and

Speaker:

00:45:18,966 --> 00:45:21,012

Logan Macrae: growing them is important, so I think

Speaker:

00:45:21,072 --> 00:45:22,295

Logan Macrae: teaching would have been nice if I could do

Speaker:

00:45:22,315 --> 00:45:22,656

Logan Macrae: anything.

Speaker:

00:45:23,125 --> 00:45:23,687

Marc Preston: I'm the same about with you.

Speaker:

00:45:23,707 --> 00:45:25,934

Marc Preston: I think teaching there's a, there's a zen

Speaker:

00:45:25,974 --> 00:45:26,194

Marc Preston: to it.

Speaker:

00:45:26,295 --> 00:45:27,812

Marc Preston: You know, it's kind of like we're all, to

Speaker:

00:45:27,852 --> 00:45:29,623

Marc Preston: some degree, encyclopedias of something

Speaker:

00:45:29,663 --> 00:45:31,090

Marc Preston: it's kind of nice to share with me.

Speaker:

00:45:31,130 --> 00:45:33,500

Marc Preston: It's just a bunch of BS but you know.

Speaker:

00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:34,926

Marc Preston: Now, last question if you could jump in a

Speaker:

00:45:34,966 --> 00:45:37,393

Marc Preston: DeLorean travel back, you're 16 years old,

Speaker:

00:45:37,433 --> 00:45:40,069

Speaker:

00:45:40,089 --> 00:45:41,194

Marc Preston: old Logan and you can.

Marc Preston: You got some knowledge.

Speaker:

00:45:43,684 --> 00:45:45,853

Marc Preston: You got a piece of advice that you really

Speaker:

00:45:45,934 --> 00:45:48,324

Marc Preston: think you should share with 16 year old you.

Speaker:

00:45:48,364 --> 00:45:48,846

Marc Preston: What would it be?

Speaker:

00:45:50,865 --> 00:45:56,581

Logan Macrae: I would just say keep your, you know, don't

Speaker:

00:45:56,621 --> 00:45:58,085

Logan Macrae: let your lows get too low, don't let your

Speaker:

00:45:58,185 --> 00:45:59,370

Logan Macrae: highs get too high.

Speaker:

00:45:59,450 --> 00:46:00,796

Logan Macrae: I think you know.

Speaker:

00:46:00,836 --> 00:46:02,884

Logan Macrae: I think especially in this type of industry

Speaker:

00:46:02,904 --> 00:46:04,650

Logan Macrae: there's things that give you a big head and

Speaker:

00:46:04,670 --> 00:46:06,595

Logan Macrae: then there's a lot of rejection that comes

Speaker:

00:46:06,655 --> 00:46:07,117

Logan Macrae: in there too.

Speaker:

00:46:07,345 --> 00:46:09,670

Logan Macrae: That I think if you can keep just that

Speaker:

00:46:09,851 --> 00:46:12,596

Logan Macrae: steady level and consistency through

Speaker:

00:46:12,657 --> 00:46:15,273

Logan Macrae: everything, it will go a very long way.

Speaker:

00:46:15,354 --> 00:46:16,922

Logan Macrae: There's some days that I'm like man, if I

Speaker:

00:46:16,942 --> 00:46:18,588

Logan Macrae: could just keep this mindset every single

Speaker:

00:46:18,628 --> 00:46:22,019

Logan Macrae: day, I'd just the overall vibe I'm getting

Speaker:

00:46:22,199 --> 00:46:25,067

Logan Macrae: off would do, would change things immensely.

Speaker:

00:46:25,168 --> 00:46:27,213

Logan Macrae: So I think it's just that consistency of

Speaker:

00:46:27,293 --> 00:46:29,438

Logan Macrae: being in a you know, just a good place.

Speaker:

00:46:29,746 --> 00:46:31,253

Marc Preston: You know it's funny when you look back on.

Speaker:

00:46:31,334 --> 00:46:33,685

Marc Preston: When I look back with perspective, I kind

Speaker:

00:46:33,745 --> 00:46:34,469

Marc Preston: of think the same thing.

Speaker:

00:46:34,952 --> 00:46:36,902

Marc Preston: You know, it's like no matter how bad you

Speaker:

00:46:36,922 --> 00:46:38,167

Marc Preston: thought something was, in hindsight it

Speaker:

00:46:38,187 --> 00:46:39,552

Marc Preston: wasn't really that bad, you know.

Speaker:

00:46:40,225 --> 00:46:41,067

Logan Macrae: like pulling back.

Speaker:

00:46:45,877 --> 00:46:48,308

Logan Macrae: You know, just think about it on a larger

Speaker:

00:46:48,415 --> 00:46:50,924

Logan Macrae: scale and does it matter to what's taking

Speaker:

00:46:51,031 --> 00:46:51,271

Logan Macrae: place?

Speaker:

00:46:51,378 --> 00:46:52,679
