On today's episode of That Was Us, we'll be discussing season two, episode 15, The Car. On the day of Jack's funeral, we see the history of the Pearson family as seen through their family car, the Wagoneer. Plus, Rebecca finds solace with an old friend who reminds her how strong she is in the toughest of circumstances. Mandy Moore, Chris Sullivan.
Sterling K. Brown. It is so good to see you guys.
So let's go with full disclosure here. We're going slightly out of order for our listeners, but they'll hear this after the fact, right? Because we're doing episode 215. We're skipping over 214 because we wanted to find some time for Dan Fogelman to come and join us because we think it's a very special episode, right? Correct. But life has been lifing for everyone.
It's been a couple of months since last we've been together in the same space.
March. Golly. March. March. Jiminy Christmas. I know.
Heaven to Murgatroyd. Heaven to Murgatroyd. Heaven to Murgatroyd. So life's been life. Because I was hoping we were going to do 2.14 first, but life has happened in the way that it is. I want to check in with everybody. Chris, you've been out shooting in Toronto, new show. How you feeling? How's it been going?
Listen, just putting it out there, we know that you've gone through so much, Amanda Lee Moore, like so frigging much. And I just want to know, you and your family,
Is it one of those things for the fellas, because they're young, what's the resiliency like for youth versus adults?
The pause button should be hit for a second, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Okay.
Let's talk about 215. So one of the things that I recognize from listening to the podcast and actually getting feedback, and I agree with it, is that Sterling talks too much.
Sterling talks too damn much.
I got it. From who? A person.
Who listens astutely. Okay, was it someone under your roof? No. It wasn't anybody. But people were always saying, and I think this is an apropos time to do it. They're like, Mandy Moore always has such salient things to say.
I wish we got a chance to hear more of her voice.
We have them on the... Okay, but in all sincerity, when we talked about this a little bit with Isaac and Elizabeth, I believe, who pop in, right? But this was a real turning point for Rebecca's character. And there's a couple of things that I'll highlight and then I'll pass over because there is... We first, we start off with her in the car by herself, and it's the first image after 2-14.
The fire, yeah. After the fire, right? And just sort of like, okay, how is this family going to move forward right now? Sure, sure, sure. A foursome that was a fivesome. And there's two things that I clock in my head pretty immediately. One was the bridge, right? And how she has to close her eyes when she crosses the bridge. And there was something else, too, that was...
like her sort of admitting a certain sort of like frailty or weakness, et cetera. Obviously the conversation with Dr. Kim, we'll all get to it soon, right? Because it's a real turning point for the character.
I just wanted to hear you talk about that.
Yeah.
