going on. Yeah, it's my sad life being rejected again. Okay.
This is my lovely wife, Robin Lively. You would know
her from Gosh, so many things I've she's done, like
a TV series nomine for an Emmy, a matter of fact,
did you have all the fun facts? But I'll tell
(02:30):
you my favorites. Well, Twin Peaks is probably my favorite
all time because it's the greatest. Well that and Karate
Kid three, Growing Bondzi treat in the Rope and on
the Cliff and the whole thing. I just do part
of my childhood. I love it so much. But what
Robin gets known for and what she gets stopped most
for walking down the street is the beloved eighties show
(02:52):
Team which where she the title the title role.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
What is a movie?
Speaker 1 (02:57):
What I say?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Show everything you know?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
You go to the show.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, Louise Miller.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Iconic classic teen Witch, and Robin plays, of course the
title role of teen Witch. And she was amazing This
team which the beautiful, charming Louise Miller from teen which
so here oh wait, Coach Bolton is married to Louise Miller.
What so that's kind of fun too. But many many shows.
(03:27):
A matter of fact, Robin currently recurring on some of
the big shows on television. Nine one one Lowest Star.
We're talking about land Man with Billy Bob Thornton and
John hamp We're talking about Shoot Special Ops Lion. This
when Nicole kidman and he's I mean, we're talking about the.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Picture of people don't even know that you and I
are in land Man together.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Well they don't.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
We'll just.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Say it. So well, we may or may not be
recurring currently on Taylor Sheridan's new TV here East Landman

Speaker 1 (04:03):
Yeah about Thory John, get me more. I mean, I'll
start Macon show. Incredible, okay, glad, Okay, So well, that's it.
That's who we are.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
That's I think you know way more than you bargained for.
I'm sure who's.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
The bigger who's the bigger movie buff? And who picks
better movies for date night?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
That's a good question, you know. Honestly, I think that
you know you can interject here too, but I think
you and I are pretty equal in Well, you might
be a little bit more of a movie buff than me,
that's fair to say. I would say that's fair because
you watch movies over and over and you know lines
like I watch movies, I love them, but I'm not
the type that watches them over and over and I
(04:40):
memorize all the lines, right, you do that? And then
and then who picks the movies for We're pretty equal
in that, Like we I feel like this is our
favorite thing to do, by the way, is go to
the movies, sit in our home, watch movies. Either we're
gonna either tear are it apart? Or we're gonna rave
(05:02):
about it? Did you we are tough critics?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Are we talking about? We were tough critics? But we
love so much that we love the same stuff. It's
so fun because like, well, like what was that one scene?
Like I know that one scene one line that acted
there's such a fake book. Or like when totally parents
start like talking about their kids, like the little they
don't have kids, man, those actors.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Don't no way. We'll be like that line, I didn't
buy that line? Did you want they say that? Why
would they do that? But or then we'll be like
that was an acting clinic and we'll break it down
and we'll we have fun. It's our favorite movies. Popcorn Milk,
Dud's Junior Mints.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
You know what I think when I hear about this question,
I think of like the one of like when I
was recording Miss Robin here and I was like I
was trying so hard to like you know, I almost
wanted to like make things magical. And then I saw
a movie and I was like, oh my gosh, she's
gonna love this movie so much. And this is the
very first movie recommendation.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Slang Blade and I was I was like, who's this guy.
He's got the greatest taste. And now we're and then
we're working with Billy Bob. Anyway, we digress. So I
(06:31):
have a question for you. This might be tough. Okay, okay,
do our kids know that you are the iconic coach
Fulton from High School Musical? Do they know that? And
and if they do, what if they think about that?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
They it's so cool man, this guy man awesome. Uh
they hate it. They hear so much. They day one
it's been They're like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Met.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
In fact, I always remember this one day when we
were shooting I'll never forget this rest of my life.
We're shooting stick the status quote on High School Musical one,
and Keny Ortega's like, dear friend of mine. He put
bail our oldest boy and our oldest girl write in
video village and sack at Fronds on one side and
Vanessa is on the other side, And I'm like cool
dad moment. This is like, this is the greatest moment
I'll ever have as a dad. Like there you go,
(07:24):
kids and they're like this is so boring. Can we
please go home? And I'm like, oh my god, man,
I'll never it's just been downhill ever since then. No,
they don't appreciate it, I think.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
But you know what, Honestly, I heard that this is
pretty common for actors that because our kids don't, they're
not like, oh, let's it down and watch things that
mom and dad are in. No, they don't, but I
do hear. I've read that this is very common that
the kids of actors are just like completely uninterested in
their parents'.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Films and they've never seen the movie. So, I mean,
they've never seen any three high school musical movies.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
They have seen high school musical because we did the
Q and A, we did that outdoor movie they have.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
They weren't watching that movie. They were every time they
were running around the grass.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
And yeah, I know they did watch it, but I'm like,
you guys, you're gonna love these songs. We were hoping
they were gonna like get it and like, oh.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
My god, so good. Everybody loves these songs. Every other
kid in the world loves this movie, just not markets.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, it's kind of true. It's true for me as well.
They don't. They don't care about teen Witch Louise Miller.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Did they care about any movie we've done ever?
Speaker 2 (08:40):
No, Kardi Kid, Kate. They think Kardi Kid is pretty
cool because of Cobra Kai. Yeah, I don't think why
it has.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
That leads me right into one of the questions I
have for you.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I can't wait.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
How was it for you to read this Karate Kid
world in Cobra Kai bring it back? Your character, same
character name and everything from three? What was that experience like?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Oh my gosh, it was like it was like a
family reunion. Well, you know, I've known Billy since I
was a teenager, so we're really good friends. And Ralph, Well,
when I when I did Karatega three, I was fangirling
the whole time because I was such a huge fan
of Karate Kid, I mean massive fan. I could not
(09:26):
believe that here I was even today. I was watching
the movie The Key months ago and I saw my
name up there, Robin Lively, you know, Ralph Maccio Pat
Marie to Robin Lively. I can't believe that's my name
up there with such legends.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
So did you go by the wait by the way,
just on that note, like, yeah, how amazing to enter
a franchise as a lead, like because Karate Kid was
one of the biggest movies in my life.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Yeah, it was like.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
That movie, the original Kreate Kid was such an incredible movie.
And here it is, like your starring is the lead girl.
That's like an amazing job.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
I couldn't believe it. I was pinching myself. I couldn't
believe it. I still can't believe it. I've in scenes.
I'm like having these outer out of body experiences where
I'm in a scene with and I'm like, I'm I'm
ben't seen with Daniel LaRusso right now, I haven't seen
with Daniel LaRusso and mister Miyagi. You know, as a
seventeen year old, it was unbelievable. So to get to
(10:25):
go back and reprise that role on Cobra Kai and
be reunited with Ralph and with Billy and so many
and I worked with Yugi, I worked with Ugi on
Johnny Cappa Halla, so it was just a huge reunion.
And Billy showed me all around the set. That's just
(10:45):
by the way, Johnny Kapohala back on board. Yes, so
it was great. And the creators were so wonderful and
warm and welcoming and thrilled to have me. Huh yeah,
yes they were. So they are so great, John, It
just they're just terrific people. So they were just as
(11:07):
excited to have me there and then to be able
to play such a badass, you know, getting there and
beat up some chicks in a bar.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
What do I get?
Speaker 2 (11:14):
How louch? Did I get to do that? Never? That's
pretty So it was amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I got the phone calls from home like You're not
gonna believe what I'm doing right now. I'm in a
bar and I'm pushing like the stunt choreographers like really cool,
like tough.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Let's go. That's awesome not only in Cobra Kai, but
you get to fight in Cobra Kat space.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Yes, it was incredible.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Yeah. You going back on Cobra Kai and kind of
reliving your important film that you've been in. I was
like kind of felt really like when I went back
to High School Musical the TV series and did season
number four and I got to Reavis my character. I
got to play Coach Bolton again and got to be
in East High and put on the uniform and being
back in the basketball uh on the basketball court. It
(11:54):
was like, it's like the nostalgia. Man, it's so amazing.
And when we UH did season four of Musical, the Musical,
the TV series UH, the creator Tim Feeder Line, he
brought all the OG cast in with the old cast
and we were in actual East High where we shot
(12:15):
all three of the movies, where we had all our
championship games, and we did We're all in this together
and like all these great iconic moments, and he brought
us all together the first time, like we're all back together,
and it says East Time in the Wow amazing, Oh
my gosh, after eighteen years, Like we're back. And I
look over and it's Lucas Gabriel, I see Corbyn Blue,
and I see Monique Coleman Case Show, and I see
(12:36):
all my wok, all my friends, all my OG friends
are like all back together, and we go around in
a circle and we just kind of like shared a
moment together with a with the new cast old cast
and like started crying. Man like Coach don't cry Keep
this on below. And it was so beautiful and so
such a like an amazing, uh feeling of nostalgia was
(12:58):
pretty It's pretty awesome.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Love it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Yeah, it was cool.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
When was the last time you saw all three of
the high School musical films?
Speaker 1 (13:09):
I don't think I've ever watched all three of them together,
but every once in a while we get invited to
screenings or outdoor movie theaters, and the both of us,
anytime we're invited to those, we always jump on. We
always try really hard to get to these screenings so
we could be there with the fans, because if people
are coming out to these outdoor, big outdoor theater screening deals,
(13:31):
they're real fans and it means so much to them
if you show up and then yeah, you and a
and kind of talk about some of the behind the
scenes stuff and uh, you take pictures with everybody, and
it's just it's so much fun. So it is we
do our best to always go to all of the
ones we could possibly go to. Uh. So that's really
the only time I ever watched those movies.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Yeah, it's been a while. I mean I remember the
last one we went to and I was like, trying
to wrangle the kids to watch them. Guys, you would
really love the music in this it's the tunes are
so catchy.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Well, if it means anything, I love the movies and
I love the songs.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Well, I'm so glad that you enjoy those.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
I appreciate it. I appreciate you. Next question I have
for you. You on TikTok. You do lots of cool dances.
I've always said you're a great dancer. In fact, used
to go to the derby and you'd swing dance all
the time, and you're very, very very good dancer. Okay,
I always say that, would you ever consider going on
(14:38):
dancing with the.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Still you're going to say that, because you know, I
get hammered with that question all the time, and I'm
in I'm like one hundred percent. I want to go
on so bad. Yeah, that's as as you know. That
was like a little bit of a frustrating thing, like
being in those movies, because I like, yeah, I'm a
(15:00):
singer and I'm a dancer, like I actually came from
musical theater. I did that when I was younger, and
when I got my start, this was the only opportunity
to act and I loved it. It's great, did tons
of singing and dancing, and then I get high school musical.
I'm like, oh, sweet, amazing and dances. It could be
amazing and they're like, hey, coach, you stand over there,
we're going to do all the singing dance ourselves.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
And yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Well, and I was supposed to have a song at
a dance in number one and Disney cut it and
it hurt me. It wounded me, and I have not
been able to be whole since then. So I hope
that I can make up for that and dance to
the stars, like come on, come on, guys, I'm ready,
I'm ready, Thank you, thank you very much. Maybe we
(15:45):
start a petition. I don't know how to, I don't know.
Somebody let me.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Please, I'll be the first signature that's a support of
wife that helps.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Thank you very much. I got a question for you.
It happens to be one of my very favorite topics
as your body of work goests, and that's twin Peaks.
So now, obviously when you did KREDI kid, you knew
you were entering like a massive franchise. I beloved franchise,
but yes, also had the experience of joining Twin Peaks.
(16:14):
You joined the cast of Twin Peaks. Was it already
something really special when you joined? Did you know it
was this unbelievable like success and like beloved series.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Oh gosh, yes, it was one of the shows. Now
you remember then when it was like a show comes
on at eight o'clock, you all gather around the television
and you watch, and then everyone's talking about it the
next day. You don't record it, you know, you don't
stream it. You all watched it at the same time.
And this show was revolutionary. This was my experience. It
(16:50):
just came and everyone was talking about it. It was
a massive hit. So when season two came along, I
was already a huge fan of the show. So I
got the audition. I was super intimidated. Not no, no, not,
I shouldn't say I was intimidated. I was excited the opportunity,
and I thought, I'm desperate to be on this show.
(17:13):
I love the show so much. Could you imagine if
I got on the show and I remember reading it
and it was like the character was supposed to be
so beautiful that all of the men were just falling
over and I thought, oh, give me a break. I'm
not going to go in there and just knock everybody
over with how gorgeous I am. I've got to do
something to stand out. I have to do something different.
Because the women were they are stunning. They were on
(17:36):
the cover of every magazine, Sherilyn Finn, Laura, Flenn Boyle,
just beautiful women. So I read it, you know, being
from the South, it just jumped off the page for
me as Southern, and I was like, that's what I'm
going to do. I'm going to play her Southern. This
makes perfect sense. This is why all the men love
her because she's got the syrupy Southern accent. And you know,
(17:59):
I had it's either it's gonna work or it won't,
but at least I'm going to try it. And what
do you know, it worked well.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
And that's as an actor. If the actor is watching
the show, that they know that when you get a script,
like there's a thousand different ways you can play a
character exactly like, oh, you have to play it like
like you make a choice, and sometimes that choice is wrong.
And if you play it safe all the time, that
might not ever get you a job, but might they
never get you competitive on a job. A lot of
(18:28):
people want like this one. Everybody wanted that job. Everybody
wanted that part that you were auditioning for. So you
have a big risk and say I'm going to do
something that's not on the page. This is not how
it's written. No one else, but no one else is
going to do it this way. And you you took
that risk in uh.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
And it paid off and paid off. Could not believe it,
couldn't believe another just pinched me a moment like, am
I really on a David Lynch series right now? Is
this trill?
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Indible?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
You killed not only to listen, I would have been enough,
Like I'm on it, Like, just let me exist here.
This is ma but you like absolutely crush that. I
was so funny, charming and row on two Peaks is amazing, favorite,
my favorite thing you've ever done.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
So really, see I'm learning something new. I didn't actually
know that.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Yeah, that's so good, so good. Okay, here's okay. So
here's an interesting question the people asking if you could
cast me in one of the old an old show
or movie you've been on. Who who would I beat?
What role would I play?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
I think you know what I'm gonna say. I would
cast you as my love interest in Savannah? Why why
is that? Why is that? The folks out there, why
would I do that? Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:57):
Man, there is a story here, there's a there's a
script that I can't but how do you do it?
All I can say is this, I Robin was on
Savannah and I had been pursuing her with the help
of her suster Blake, for so many years to try
to get her interested in me. But she already known
(20:17):
to me.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
By the way, I didn't know this whole thing, you know.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
I had to be clever about this one. And then
I knew that she had only dated people that she
had worked with because she never goes out. She don't
go to clubs and go to bar so this is
the only she works. We've been working since since she
was a kid. So the only person that she ended
up dating or love interests on shows that you end
up spending a lot of time with, it just kind
of naturally happens. So, Uh, this audition came, I'm.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Already to replace. We did the pilot and then we
go to series and they're like, we're going to recast
the boyfriend Lane Mackenzie that.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I get a call. I get a call. This is
like kind of ruining the story. So forget this when
the big story comes out, uh, because we're gonna write
this script. But basically, my agent called me and said, hey,
you have an audition for Savannah. And I was like,
oh my gosh, Robin's down in Atlanta right now shooting Savannah.
I got I an audition down there. I'll get down
there and I said, okay, what's the part and they said, oh,
so play Lane, the Kinzie's boyfriend. And I was like,
(21:19):
say what, dude, no way, this is this is it,
this is my moment, this is it. It's all gonna
happen like all the good I did in my life,
Like the heavens have parted. I'm being blessed with this opportunity.
Let's go. So I go in and I give I
have the audition and it goes great. And then I
come back and I go to I go to producers,
and I meet Duke Vincent, I miss meet Aaron Spelling,
(21:39):
I mean, like all the people. And then I passed that.
I go to studio and I meet everybody, everybody in
the room, and I thought like, okay, uh, there's like
thirty five people in there. I thought, oh my gosh,
I'm gonna give this roll, and I didn't get it,
so I.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Would cast you in that it was so that all happened,
and then you you're gonna get the role and you didn't.
And then I ended up dating the guy who, yeah,
who got the role right like it actually ended up
happening exactly the way he was going to play out.
It just wasn't him, not that though it worked out.
Though it worked.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Out, it was just a lot of years, a lot
more years of paid.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Okay, that's a good one.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
That's a good one.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
So we went to the Deadpool Wolverine premiere and we
were so sad that you weren't with us. It was
like a missing appendage. We had to go that.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I've been looking forward to that premiere for two years.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
We even came back early from our trip to Japan
so that we could go to the premiere. And then
as fate.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Saw them shoot Deadpool in London, like we were on
set watching, like.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We we were excited about this. You're really excited about
this one. Then you you were a no show. What happened?
Why did you do?
Speaker 1 (23:20):
That's a great question, Robin, Thank you for asking, because
it does seem very interesting. So we're in Japan and
we get a call. I get a call from our agent,
Rachel Sheety, and she says, Hey, they want you on
Yellowstone and you have to be available today. And I
was like Mike in Japan, we were literally like Kyoto,
like we weren't in Tokyo. Yeah, yes, first of all, yes,
(23:45):
I'm available, absolutely, And so almost had to just I
think that was before you arrived too, because you Robin
was shooting. What were you shooting? You're shooting something, You're
shooting special loves lines.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yes it was, yes, line of Special Ops. Oh yes,
it's a Liona's Special Ops special. No Lion of Specials.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
So so we have this like every summer. This is
a whole nother story, but can.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
We say how much we love Taylor Sheridan.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
By the way, Taylor, he is the best and we've
known him which is kind of really fun him so much.
So we we have this, like every summer, we take
our family on a three week road trip and not
always a road trip, but almost always a road trip,
and they're like epic. So we had this three week
trip planned Japan and then Robbie gets road.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Trip like from in the States, like we'll fly to
Europe and we'll go travel.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
The last one was like Portugal to Morocco.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Yeah, complicated, amazing.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Like we do, like these really epic road trips are
and we had this one planned in Japan. It was amazing.
Had it detailed out. Man, how the whole thing planned out?
And then Robin gets Lion a special.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Isn't that how it always works out? You plan a trip,
If you plan a trip, you will You're definitely you're
destined to get work, which is a champagne problem of course.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Yeah, that's the expression in Hollywood is like if you
want a job by a non refundable.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Non refundable, Yes, it's.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Got to hurt a little bit. So yeah, so we
were so you missed the first week of the trip
in Japan, and then we ended up having to cut
the trip early because Deadpool premieres dates came out whatever,
and then I was gonna have leave early for Yellowstone
and so you guys literally I'm shooting in Montana. Yeah,
while you guys were sending me pictures from the Red Party.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
I know you came the next day.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Missed it by one.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Day, one day day. Such a bummer.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah, but I got to be there in the after
glow of it all and we celebrate and yeah, success
that weekend. It was just like, oh, I'm going to
sit back and enjoy all the aftermath. So it was
pretty Yes, we were very proud of our uncle Ryan.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
So remember when I was in Dallas and I was
filming and it was like four nights four days before
school started in Utah, literally four days. Yeah, We're on
the phone talking about it and we're like, what do
we do? Do we do this? Do we We've been
(26:24):
talking about it for months, but like now it was
crunch time Monday school registration. We haven't planned even a
little bit for this potential move. So what did we
decide four nights before.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
That? We we really got to figure it out.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Yeah, so we got to figure this out.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I think that's as far as we got. The backstory
is we own a property in Midway, Utah. It's right
at Park City, and we ran it as a bend
breakfast for like twelve years Johnson Mill. If you've been
with Johnson Mill, you know this place is so special.
It's so spectacular, and we ended up sing it out
and we're about to get it back like in real life,
we're about to get this place back, and the company
(27:05):
that's had it, it's going to come back as a shell.
But this place is it's so magical, it's so beautiful.
It's it's on a pond, it sits on a river,
blue ribbon fly fishing. There's a forty foot waterfall, there's
eight little waterfalls through English Garden in the back. I mean,
it's like, it is special. It's ten minutes from the
Deer Valley Gondola. I mean, it is an unbelievable, very
(27:28):
special place.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
And you you actually kind of grew I mean you
didn't grow up there, but you and your family moved
there and turned it into this. It was like an
old flower mill, an.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Old flour mill. Yeah. So it's really special place.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
A lot of memories and history and.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Oh my gosh, yeah totally. So. I was born in Hollywood,
raised in Los Angeles, and when I was a freshman
in high school, we moved to the Johnson Mill. This's
whole flower mill and it was just a shell. It's big, huge,
five story square flower mill. And like I didn't have walls.
We had curtains for walls, and we converted it by
hand into a house that we lived in, and as
(28:05):
the kids started moving out, we turned into a bed
and breakfast, and then it became this really beautiful place,
like red Book magazine said it is one of the
most romantic inns in the United States, and Money magazine
said one of the ten best places to stay in
the in the country. So all sorts of like accolades
and like people loving in just having the great there's
a big water wheel. It's beautiful, it's incredible, and we've
always wanted to move back, but as actors, you kind
(28:29):
of have to live in LA and New York. That's
kind of because we have all our meetings at the
studios or callbacks in the room with the producers and everything.
So it's a lot of times very short notice, so
we don't we're kind of like you're kind of tethered
to these cities, especially like like if you're a big
movie star, okay, you can live anywhere you want, but
like for us, like we have to be in the
room for these meetings. So now that COVID kind of
(28:50):
changed everything and we could do our auditions on tape
and send them in and all that kind of stuff,
we thought, man, maybe this is a maybe this is it,
Maybe this is the time we could do this, But
can we do it? So we debate, go back and forth.
Can we do it? Can we try to? Should we
do it? Our kid want like I don't know. We
raised our kids in Los Angeles. We got one left
in school. He really wants to get out of the
city and I want to live in the country. I
want to be the new kid in school. We thought
(29:10):
that was really cool, so we thought should we should
we do this? And then we had two days left
to decide, and we're like, I think we should do it.
I think we should do it. Try it. And then
Sunday morning we woke up and we said, let's do it.
School starts tomorrow. So I packed a duffel bag, the
motorcycles and the mountain bikes. Because you're forging do Utah.
(29:30):
You gotta do Utah, you know what I'm saying, and
drove up to Utah. And then you were doing a job.
You had a job for a few more days. And
then we drove all the way to Utah. We got
there a three o'clock in the morning and Wyatt, our youngest,
was a school at seven fifty in the morning. The
new kid in school walked in that building twenty one
hundred kids and didn't know a single student, didn't know
a single teacher. And he's like, I'm a new kid.
(29:52):
Here we go and then you joined us a few
days later and we're still.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Just living are we?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
I don't know what we just did it.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
And then people say like, did you did you guys
just move to you taught.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
We're like, well, yeah, that's how that's how we respond.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
We have a home in La. We don't have a
home in Utah, but we love which By.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
The way, I'm in La right now and you're in Utah,
so we're kind of.

all these signs.
Speaker 2 (30:35):

a show in Utah, fell in love with it and
moved there.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
And if it's good enough for Postalon and then it's.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Good enough for us.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, So we don't know, we don't know what we're
doing We don't know from here. There's some people that
want to do a reality TV series about us moving
up here and converting our building back into whatever. We're
going to do a boutik hotel or yeah and breakfast.

so that'soul be h to be continued to follow along
there on our journey through uh moving, I guess are

Speaker 2 (31:42):
We're dividing our time between Utah and LA while we
figure it out, and so far, we're having an amazing time.

Nine one one lone Star until you left me for well,
no spoilers, I can't say anything.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yeah, no, anyway, there might be someone on.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
That There might be a good looking guy on that
show that is hard to compete with. That's all I'm saying. Okay,
so watch the watch the season, and you'll see what's
going on. Yeah, it's my sad life being rejected again. Okay.
This is my lovely wife, Robin Lively. You would know
her from Gosh, so many things I've she's done, like
a TV series nomine for an Emmy, a matter of fact,
did you have all the fun facts? But I'll tell
(02:30):
you my favorites. Well, Twin Peaks is probably my favorite
all time because it's the greatest. Well that and Karate
Kid three, Growing Bondzi treat in the Rope and on
the Cliff and the whole thing. I just do part
of my childhood. I love it so much. But what
Robin gets known for and what she gets stopped most
for walking down the street is the beloved eighties show
(02:52):
Team which where she the title the title role.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
What is a movie?
Speaker 1 (02:57):
What I say?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Show everything you know?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
You go to the show.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah, Louise Miller.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Iconic classic teen Witch, and Robin plays, of course the
title role of teen Witch. And she was amazing This
team which the beautiful, charming Louise Miller from teen which
so here oh wait, Coach Bolton is married to Louise Miller.
What so that's kind of fun too. But many many shows.
(03:27):
A matter of fact, Robin currently recurring on some of
the big shows on television. Nine one one Lowest Star.
We're talking about land Man with Billy Bob Thornton and
John hamp We're talking about Shoot Special Ops Lion. This
when Nicole kidman and he's I mean, we're talking about the.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Picture of people don't even know that you and I
are in land Man together.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Well they don't.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
We'll just.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Say it. So well, we may or may not be
recurring currently on Taylor Sheridan's new TV here East Landman
shooting in Texas.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
You just can't go watch and find out?
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Yeah about Thory John, get me more. I mean, I'll
start Macon show. Incredible, okay, glad, Okay, So well, that's it.
That's who we are.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
That's I think you know way more than you bargained for.
I'm sure who's.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
The bigger who's the bigger movie buff? And who picks
better movies for date night?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
That's a good question, you know. Honestly, I think that
you know you can interject here too, but I think
you and I are pretty equal in Well, you might
be a little bit more of a movie buff than me,
that's fair to say. I would say that's fair because
you watch movies over and over and you know lines
like I watch movies, I love them, but I'm not
the type that watches them over and over and I
(04:40):
memorize all the lines, right, you do that? And then
and then who picks the movies for We're pretty equal
in that, Like we I feel like this is our
favorite thing to do, by the way, is go to
the movies, sit in our home, watch movies. Either we're
gonna either tear are it apart? Or we're gonna rave
(05:02):
about it? Did you we are tough critics?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Are we talking about? We were tough critics? But we
love so much that we love the same stuff. It's
so fun because like, well, like what was that one scene?
Like I know that one scene one line that acted
there's such a fake book. Or like when totally parents
start like talking about their kids, like the little they
don't have kids, man, those actors.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Don't no way. We'll be like that line, I didn't
buy that line? Did you want they say that? Why
would they do that? But or then we'll be like
that was an acting clinic and we'll break it down
and we'll we have fun. It's our favorite movies. Popcorn Milk,
Dud's Junior Mints.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
You know what I think when I hear about this question,
I think of like the one of like when I
was recording Miss Robin here and I was like I
was trying so hard to like you know, I almost
wanted to like make things magical. And then I saw
a movie and I was like, oh my gosh, she's
gonna love this movie so much. And this is the
very first movie recommendation.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Slang Blade and I was I was like, who's this guy.
He's got the greatest taste. And now we're and then
we're working with Billy Bob. Anyway, we digress. So I
(06:31):
have a question for you. This might be tough. Okay, okay,
do our kids know that you are the iconic coach
Fulton from High School Musical? Do they know that? And
and if they do, what if they think about that?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
They it's so cool man, this guy man awesome. Uh
they hate it. They hear so much. They day one
it's been They're like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Met.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
In fact, I always remember this one day when we
were shooting I'll never forget this rest of my life.
We're shooting stick the status quote on High School Musical one,
and Keny Ortega's like, dear friend of mine. He put
bail our oldest boy and our oldest girl write in
video village and sack at Fronds on one side and
Vanessa is on the other side, And I'm like cool
dad moment. This is like, this is the greatest moment
I'll ever have as a dad. Like there you go,
(07:24):
kids and they're like this is so boring. Can we
please go home? And I'm like, oh my god, man,
I'll never it's just been downhill ever since then. No,
they don't appreciate it, I think.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
But you know what, Honestly, I heard that this is
pretty common for actors that because our kids don't, they're
not like, oh, let's it down and watch things that
mom and dad are in. No, they don't, but I
do hear. I've read that this is very common that
the kids of actors are just like completely uninterested in
their parents'.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Films and they've never seen the movie. So, I mean,
they've never seen any three high school musical movies.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
They have seen high school musical because we did the
Q and A, we did that outdoor movie they have.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
They weren't watching that movie. They were every time they
were running around the grass.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
And yeah, I know they did watch it, but I'm like,
you guys, you're gonna love these songs. We were hoping
they were gonna like get it and like, oh.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
My god, so good. Everybody loves these songs. Every other
kid in the world loves this movie, just not markets.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, it's kind of true. It's true for me as well.
They don't. They don't care about teen Witch Louise Miller.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Did they care about any movie we've done ever?
Speaker 2 (08:40):
No, Kardi Kid, Kate. They think Kardi Kid is pretty
cool because of Cobra Kai. Yeah, I don't think why
it has.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
That leads me right into one of the questions I
have for you.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
I can't wait.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
How was it for you to read this Karate Kid
world in Cobra Kai bring it back? Your character, same
character name and everything from three? What was that experience like?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Oh my gosh, it was like it was like a
family reunion. Well, you know, I've known Billy since I
was a teenager, so we're really good friends. And Ralph, Well,
when I when I did Karatega three, I was fangirling
the whole time because I was such a huge fan
of Karate Kid, I mean massive fan. I could not
(09:26):
believe that here I was even today. I was watching
the movie The Key months ago and I saw my
name up there, Robin Lively, you know, Ralph Maccio Pat
Marie to Robin Lively. I can't believe that's my name
up there with such legends.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
So did you go by the wait by the way,
just on that note, like, yeah, how amazing to enter
a franchise as a lead, like because Karate Kid was
one of the biggest movies in my life.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Yeah, it was like.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
That movie, the original Kreate Kid was such an incredible movie.
And here it is, like your starring is the lead girl.
That's like an amazing job.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
I couldn't believe it. I was pinching myself. I couldn't
believe it. I still can't believe it. I've in scenes.
I'm like having these outer out of body experiences where
I'm in a scene with and I'm like, I'm I'm
ben't seen with Daniel LaRusso right now, I haven't seen
with Daniel LaRusso and mister Miyagi. You know, as a
seventeen year old, it was unbelievable. So to get to
(10:25):
go back and reprise that role on Cobra Kai and
be reunited with Ralph and with Billy and so many
and I worked with Yugi, I worked with Ugi on
Johnny Cappa Halla, so it was just a huge reunion.
And Billy showed me all around the set. That's just
(10:45):
by the way, Johnny Kapohala back on board. Yes, so
it was great. And the creators were so wonderful and
warm and welcoming and thrilled to have me. Huh yeah,
yes they were. So they are so great, John, It
just they're just terrific people. So they were just as
(11:07):
excited to have me there and then to be able
to play such a badass, you know, getting there and
beat up some chicks in a bar.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
What do I get?
Speaker 2 (11:14):
How louch? Did I get to do that? Never? That's
pretty So it was amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I got the phone calls from home like You're not
gonna believe what I'm doing right now. I'm in a
bar and I'm pushing like the stunt choreographers like really cool,
like tough.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Let's go. That's awesome not only in Cobra Kai, but
you get to fight in Cobra Kat space.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Yes, it was incredible.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Yeah. You going back on Cobra Kai and kind of
reliving your important film that you've been in. I was
like kind of felt really like when I went back
to High School Musical the TV series and did season
number four and I got to Reavis my character. I
got to play Coach Bolton again and got to be
in East High and put on the uniform and being
back in the basketball uh on the basketball court. It
(11:54):
was like, it's like the nostalgia. Man, it's so amazing.
And when we UH did season four of Musical, the Musical,
the TV series UH, the creator Tim Feeder Line, he
brought all the OG cast in with the old cast
and we were in actual East High where we shot
(12:15):
all three of the movies, where we had all our
championship games, and we did We're all in this together
and like all these great iconic moments, and he brought
us all together the first time, like we're all back together,
and it says East Time in the Wow amazing, Oh
my gosh, after eighteen years, Like we're back. And I
look over and it's Lucas Gabriel, I see Corbyn Blue,
and I see Monique Coleman Case Show, and I see
(12:36):
all my wok, all my friends, all my OG friends
are like all back together, and we go around in
a circle and we just kind of like shared a
moment together with a with the new cast old cast
and like started crying. Man like Coach don't cry Keep
this on below. And it was so beautiful and so
such a like an amazing, uh feeling of nostalgia was
(12:58):
pretty It's pretty awesome.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Love it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Yeah, it was cool.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
When was the last time you saw all three of
the high School musical films?
Speaker 1 (13:09):
I don't think I've ever watched all three of them together,
but every once in a while we get invited to
screenings or outdoor movie theaters, and the both of us,
anytime we're invited to those, we always jump on. We
always try really hard to get to these screenings so
we could be there with the fans, because if people
are coming out to these outdoor, big outdoor theater screening deals,
(13:31):
they're real fans and it means so much to them
if you show up and then yeah, you and a
and kind of talk about some of the behind the
scenes stuff and uh, you take pictures with everybody, and
it's just it's so much fun. So it is we
do our best to always go to all of the
ones we could possibly go to. Uh. So that's really
the only time I ever watched those movies.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Yeah, it's been a while. I mean I remember the
last one we went to and I was like, trying
to wrangle the kids to watch them. Guys, you would
really love the music in this it's the tunes are
so catchy.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Well, if it means anything, I love the movies and
I love the songs.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Well, I'm so glad that you enjoy those.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
I appreciate it. I appreciate you. Next question I have
for you. You on TikTok. You do lots of cool dances.
I've always said you're a great dancer. In fact, used
to go to the derby and you'd swing dance all
the time, and you're very, very very good dancer. Okay,
I always say that, would you ever consider going on
(14:38):
dancing with the.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Still you're going to say that, because you know, I
get hammered with that question all the time, and I'm
in I'm like one hundred percent. I want to go
on so bad. Yeah, that's as as you know. That
was like a little bit of a frustrating thing, like
being in those movies, because I like, yeah, I'm a
(15:00):
singer and I'm a dancer, like I actually came from
musical theater. I did that when I was younger, and
when I got my start, this was the only opportunity
to act and I loved it. It's great, did tons
of singing and dancing, and then I get high school musical.
I'm like, oh, sweet, amazing and dances. It could be
amazing and they're like, hey, coach, you stand over there,
we're going to do all the singing dance ourselves.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
And yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Well, and I was supposed to have a song at
a dance in number one and Disney cut it and
it hurt me. It wounded me, and I have not
been able to be whole since then. So I hope
that I can make up for that and dance to
the stars, like come on, come on, guys, I'm ready,
I'm ready, Thank you, thank you very much. Maybe we
(15:45):
start a petition. I don't know how to, I don't know.
Somebody let me.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Please, I'll be the first signature that's a support of
wife that helps.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Thank you very much. I got a question for you.
It happens to be one of my very favorite topics
as your body of work goests, and that's twin Peaks.
So now, obviously when you did KREDI kid, you knew
you were entering like a massive franchise. I beloved franchise,
but yes, also had the experience of joining Twin Peaks.
(16:14):
You joined the cast of Twin Peaks. Was it already
something really special when you joined? Did you know it
was this unbelievable like success and like beloved series.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Oh gosh, yes, it was one of the shows. Now
you remember then when it was like a show comes
on at eight o'clock, you all gather around the television
and you watch, and then everyone's talking about it the
next day. You don't record it, you know, you don't
stream it. You all watched it at the same time.
And this show was revolutionary. This was my experience. It
(16:50):
just came and everyone was talking about it. It was
a massive hit. So when season two came along, I
was already a huge fan of the show. So I
got the audition. I was super intimidated. Not no, no, not,
I shouldn't say I was intimidated. I was excited the opportunity,
and I thought, I'm desperate to be on this show.
(17:13):
I love the show so much. Could you imagine if
I got on the show and I remember reading it
and it was like the character was supposed to be
so beautiful that all of the men were just falling
over and I thought, oh, give me a break. I'm
not going to go in there and just knock everybody
over with how gorgeous I am. I've got to do
something to stand out. I have to do something different.
Because the women were they are stunning. They were on
(17:36):
the cover of every magazine, Sherilyn Finn, Laura, Flenn Boyle,
just beautiful women. So I read it, you know, being
from the South, it just jumped off the page for
me as Southern, and I was like, that's what I'm
going to do. I'm going to play her Southern. This
makes perfect sense. This is why all the men love
her because she's got the syrupy Southern accent. And you know,
(17:59):
I had it's either it's gonna work or it won't,
but at least I'm going to try it. And what
do you know, it worked well.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
And that's as an actor. If the actor is watching
the show, that they know that when you get a script,
like there's a thousand different ways you can play a
character exactly like, oh, you have to play it like
like you make a choice, and sometimes that choice is wrong.
And if you play it safe all the time, that
might not ever get you a job, but might they
never get you competitive on a job. A lot of
(18:28):
people want like this one. Everybody wanted that job. Everybody
wanted that part that you were auditioning for. So you
have a big risk and say I'm going to do
something that's not on the page. This is not how
it's written. No one else, but no one else is
going to do it this way. And you you took
that risk in uh.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
And it paid off and paid off. Could not believe it,
couldn't believe another just pinched me a moment like, am
I really on a David Lynch series right now? Is
this trill?
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Indible?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
You killed not only to listen, I would have been enough,
Like I'm on it, Like, just let me exist here.
This is ma but you like absolutely crush that. I
was so funny, charming and row on two Peaks is amazing, favorite,
my favorite thing you've ever done.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
So really, see I'm learning something new. I didn't actually
know that.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Yeah, that's so good, so good. Okay, here's okay. So
here's an interesting question the people asking if you could
cast me in one of the old an old show
or movie you've been on. Who who would I beat?
What role would I play?
Speaker 2 (19:38):
I think you know what I'm gonna say. I would
cast you as my love interest in Savannah? Why why
is that? Why is that? The folks out there, why
would I do that? Oh?
Speaker 1 (19:57):
Man, there is a story here, there's a there's a
script that I can't but how do you do it?
All I can say is this, I Robin was on
Savannah and I had been pursuing her with the help
of her suster Blake, for so many years to try
to get her interested in me. But she already known
(20:17):
to me.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
By the way, I didn't know this whole thing, you know.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
I had to be clever about this one. And then
I knew that she had only dated people that she
had worked with because she never goes out. She don't
go to clubs and go to bar so this is
the only she works. We've been working since since she
was a kid. So the only person that she ended
up dating or love interests on shows that you end
up spending a lot of time with, it just kind
of naturally happens. So, Uh, this audition came, I'm.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Already to replace. We did the pilot and then we
go to series and they're like, we're going to recast
the boyfriend Lane Mackenzie that.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I get a call. I get a call. This is
like kind of ruining the story. So forget this when
the big story comes out, uh, because we're gonna write
this script. But basically, my agent called me and said, hey,
you have an audition for Savannah. And I was like,
oh my gosh, Robin's down in Atlanta right now shooting Savannah.
I got I an audition down there. I'll get down
there and I said, okay, what's the part and they said, oh,
so play Lane, the Kinzie's boyfriend. And I was like,
(21:19):
say what, dude, no way, this is this is it,
this is my moment, this is it. It's all gonna
happen like all the good I did in my life,
Like the heavens have parted. I'm being blessed with this opportunity.
Let's go. So I go in and I give I
have the audition and it goes great. And then I
come back and I go to I go to producers,
and I meet Duke Vincent, I miss meet Aaron Spelling,
(21:39):
I mean, like all the people. And then I passed that.
I go to studio and I meet everybody, everybody in
the room, and I thought like, okay, uh, there's like
thirty five people in there. I thought, oh my gosh,
I'm gonna give this roll, and I didn't get it,
so I.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Would cast you in that it was so that all happened,
and then you you're gonna get the role and you didn't.
And then I ended up dating the guy who, yeah,
who got the role right like it actually ended up
happening exactly the way he was going to play out.
It just wasn't him, not that though it worked out.
Though it worked.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Out, it was just a lot of years, a lot
more years of paid.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Okay, that's a good one.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
That's a good one.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
So we went to the Deadpool Wolverine premiere and we
were so sad that you weren't with us. It was
like a missing appendage. We had to go that.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I've been looking forward to that premiere for two years.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
We even came back early from our trip to Japan
so that we could go to the premiere. And then
as fate.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Saw them shoot Deadpool in London, like we were on
set watching, like.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We we were excited about this. You're really excited about
this one. Then you you were a no show. What happened?
Why did you do?
Speaker 1 (23:20):
That's a great question, Robin, Thank you for asking, because
it does seem very interesting. So we're in Japan and
we get a call. I get a call from our agent,
Rachel Sheety, and she says, Hey, they want you on
Yellowstone and you have to be available today. And I
was like Mike in Japan, we were literally like Kyoto,
like we weren't in Tokyo. Yeah, yes, first of all, yes,
(23:45):
I'm available, absolutely, And so almost had to just I
think that was before you arrived too, because you Robin
was shooting. What were you shooting? You're shooting something, You're
shooting special loves lines.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yes it was, yes, line of Special Ops. Oh yes,
it's a Liona's Special Ops special. No Lion of Specials.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
So so we have this like every summer. This is
a whole nother story, but can.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
We say how much we love Taylor Sheridan.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
By the way, Taylor, he is the best and we've
known him which is kind of really fun him so much.
So we we have this, like every summer, we take
our family on a three week road trip and not
always a road trip, but almost always a road trip,
and they're like epic. So we had this three week
trip planned Japan and then Robbie gets road.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Trip like from in the States, like we'll fly to
Europe and we'll go travel.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
The last one was like Portugal to Morocco.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Yeah, complicated, amazing.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Like we do, like these really epic road trips are
and we had this one planned in Japan. It was amazing.
Had it detailed out. Man, how the whole thing planned out?
And then Robin gets Lion a special.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Isn't that how it always works out? You plan a trip,
If you plan a trip, you will You're definitely you're
destined to get work, which is a champagne problem of course.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Yeah, that's the expression in Hollywood is like if you
want a job by a non refundable.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Non refundable, Yes, it's.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Got to hurt a little bit. So yeah, so we
were so you missed the first week of the trip
in Japan, and then we ended up having to cut
the trip early because Deadpool premieres dates came out whatever,
and then I was gonna have leave early for Yellowstone
and so you guys literally I'm shooting in Montana. Yeah,
while you guys were sending me pictures from the Red Party.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
I know you came the next day.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Missed it by one.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Day, one day day. Such a bummer.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah, but I got to be there in the after
glow of it all and we celebrate and yeah, success
that weekend. It was just like, oh, I'm going to
sit back and enjoy all the aftermath. So it was
pretty Yes, we were very proud of our uncle Ryan.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
So remember when I was in Dallas and I was
filming and it was like four nights four days before
school started in Utah, literally four days. Yeah, We're on
the phone talking about it and we're like, what do
we do? Do we do this? Do we We've been
(26:24):
talking about it for months, but like now it was
crunch time Monday school registration. We haven't planned even a
little bit for this potential move. So what did we
decide four nights before.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
That? We we really got to figure it out.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Yeah, so we got to figure this out.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I think that's as far as we got. The backstory
is we own a property in Midway, Utah. It's right
at Park City, and we ran it as a bend
breakfast for like twelve years Johnson Mill. If you've been
with Johnson Mill, you know this place is so special.
It's so spectacular, and we ended up sing it out
and we're about to get it back like in real life,
we're about to get this place back, and the company
(27:05):
that's had it, it's going to come back as a shell.
But this place is it's so magical, it's so beautiful.
It's it's on a pond, it sits on a river,
blue ribbon fly fishing. There's a forty foot waterfall, there's
eight little waterfalls through English Garden in the back. I mean,
it's like, it is special. It's ten minutes from the
Deer Valley Gondola. I mean, it is an unbelievable, very
(27:28):
special place.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
And you you actually kind of grew I mean you
didn't grow up there, but you and your family moved
there and turned it into this. It was like an
old flower mill, an.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Old flour mill. Yeah. So it's really special place.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
A lot of memories and history and.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Oh my gosh, yeah totally. So. I was born in Hollywood,
raised in Los Angeles, and when I was a freshman
in high school, we moved to the Johnson Mill. This's
whole flower mill and it was just a shell. It's big, huge,
five story square flower mill. And like I didn't have walls.
We had curtains for walls, and we converted it by
hand into a house that we lived in, and as
(28:05):
the kids started moving out, we turned into a bed
and breakfast, and then it became this really beautiful place,
like red Book magazine said it is one of the
most romantic inns in the United States, and Money magazine
said one of the ten best places to stay in
the in the country. So all sorts of like accolades
and like people loving in just having the great there's
a big water wheel. It's beautiful, it's incredible, and we've
always wanted to move back, but as actors, you kind
(28:29):
of have to live in LA and New York. That's
kind of because we have all our meetings at the
studios or callbacks in the room with the producers and everything.
So it's a lot of times very short notice, so
we don't we're kind of like you're kind of tethered
to these cities, especially like like if you're a big
movie star, okay, you can live anywhere you want, but
like for us, like we have to be in the
room for these meetings. So now that COVID kind of
(28:50):
changed everything and we could do our auditions on tape
and send them in and all that kind of stuff,
we thought, man, maybe this is a maybe this is it,
Maybe this is the time we could do this, But
can we do it? So we debate, go back and forth.
Can we do it? Can we try to? Should we
do it? Our kid want like I don't know. We
raised our kids in Los Angeles. We got one left
in school. He really wants to get out of the
city and I want to live in the country. I
want to be the new kid in school. We thought
(29:10):
that was really cool, so we thought should we should
we do this? And then we had two days left
to decide, and we're like, I think we should do it.
I think we should do it. Try it. And then
Sunday morning we woke up and we said, let's do it.
School starts tomorrow. So I packed a duffel bag, the
motorcycles and the mountain bikes. Because you're forging do Utah.
(29:30):
You gotta do Utah, you know what I'm saying, and
drove up to Utah. And then you were doing a job.
You had a job for a few more days. And
then we drove all the way to Utah. We got
there a three o'clock in the morning and Wyatt, our youngest,
was a school at seven fifty in the morning. The
new kid in school walked in that building twenty one
hundred kids and didn't know a single student, didn't know
a single teacher. And he's like, I'm a new kid.
(29:52):
Here we go and then you joined us a few
days later and we're still.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Just living are we?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
I don't know what we just did it.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
And then people say like, did you did you guys
just move to you taught.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
We're like, well, yeah, that's how that's how we respond.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
We have a home in La. We don't have a
home in Utah, but we love which By.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
The way, I'm in La right now and you're in Utah,
so we're kind of.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Like, it's so great, it's you got there today.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Today, It's so easy.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Concert in Utah last night.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
That was self Faller, and he was talking about how
amazing Utah is that, how much he loved Utah, Utah,
all these signs.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Man, he was in La, he lived in La, did
a show in Utah, fell in love with it and
moved there.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
And if it's good enough for Postalon and then it's.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Good enough for us.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, So we don't know, we don't know what we're
doing We don't know from here. There's some people that
want to do a reality TV series about us moving
up here and converting our building back into whatever. We're
going to do a boutik hotel or yeah and breakfast.

We don't know what we're doing it because we we
