No. Or Big Sisters? No, no.
And were you already in the field in acting? I was living in New York doing like off-Broadway theater.
I never met him. I never had one. So the entire foundation, you know the movie Role Models? Oh, yeah, yeah, with Adam Sandler. No, with Sean William Scott.
Yes.
Who?
And it's basically the whole foundation is for a child who grows up without a mother or a father. They would get a big brother or a big sister. And the people are like really vetted. Obviously, background check put through like six months of training. And I just think it's such a unique foundation because these people are giving the greatest commodity, which is time.
Young. It's even crazier now that I think about it. I was eight. He was 24, 25. Like, could you imagine, like, being that selfless at that age?
Did you ever ask him, like, what possessed him to do that? He grew up in a great family. I think, like...
the spirit of giving and charity was big in his family growing up and he was like you know he was uh he works in finance and he was like i was like a young stockbroker working uh in the financial district like all the typical pitfalls of like chasing money and fast life and and he said you know it just occurred to me that this could be really meaningful to do wow and
And so, yeah, he's been in my life and he's been an incredible model. And then honestly, my wife's dad, my father-in-law, Ken, who's just, I mean, four kids and just, he's the guy that picks you up from the airport. Any time of day, any time of night, he's just there. And so I feel very, it's also about being aware of like,
if you weren't as, uh, if you didn't get things in the typical way, like how did life, how did the universe put things out? Can you be aware of like, Oh, I can get this. It's just from not the typical source.
So I have those models and I try to model it with my kids. And it's just about what I think being a man is, which is like showing up for people. Like your word is your bond. I say that to my kid, even at five years old, I'm like, like Max, like we keep our word, you know, things like this. And just, I'm like, that's what's really important.
And then when he needs literally practice, he goes to talk to his grandpa. Yeah. Plays the throw ball. Yeah, he used to be a professional football player. I'm like, go talk to Papa. Oh, wow, that's so sweet. But if you want this, you come to me.
I've spent a lot of time there. Really? For work, yeah.
Wow. But do you speak like a Quebecian?
Oh, because you're from France originally? Yeah.
But it's a thick French Canadian accent, right? Yes. Yes.
You know All Dressed? Yeah, I do. They're really good.
I think whatever those big, big wounds were from just growing up, just being alive and as a result of my circumstance, I... For today, as best I can tell, I think they're pretty healed. But it's maintenance, you know? And there are just moments where I just can be doing better, and my wife has no problem telling me. And there's work to be done.
And then, you know, there's just sort of the theme of this conversation to a point like we're in a crazy business. And sometimes I can't believe that it still hurts.
