You're so used to watching yourself on screen.
I didn't even think about that.
A few questions about the movie now. Please. How did her parents die?
Okay, because I was like, am I missing something?
Okay, second question.
Were you so fucking shook when you found out that your character's sister died because she was kidnapped?
No, you guys. We were watching this movie, and his character talks about his sister passing, and he doesn't have a sister. You imagine a car crash or something in a teen movie, and he's like, yeah, we turned around, and she was never to be seen again.
I'm so sorry. It was obviously beautiful. So well done. Incredible. I was with my friend who went to Princeton. And he it was well and he was able to like kind of give me the notes for how to run down. Then two days later, I saw a complete unknown, which was amazing. So I'm like listening to Bob Dylan and feeling so fucking intellectual, like beyond words.
Would you say that was the most exhausting day?
Wait. No. Because I'm watching this movie and I'm like, is that James Van Der Beek? It was. And it was. What's he in again?
Dawson's Creek. Yeah.
And... And he's in all the – South Park parodies him a lot. No, not South Park. Sorry, Family Guy parodies him all the time. Or at least they used to. That's how I knew who James Van Der Beek was.
Would you ever do Dancing with the Stars?
I think you'd be great.
If you did it, I would do it.
Wait, so, but any of your friends that have done Dancing with the Stars, they say they like it?
I mean... Do you watch?
Yeah, neither do I. Peyton and Julia watch it a lot.
But it took them two weeks to watch the finale. It was the weirdest thing. Like one episode? Dude, yes. I would walk into the TV room and the finale was on. I was like, oh my God, I'm so happy you guys are finally watching this finale because they were so excited about it. And then two days later, like somehow the finale was still on and paused just like 10 minutes later.
Then two days later, the finale was still on. And then yesterday I walked in and I was like, how the fuck are you guys still watching this finale?
Did you guys know who won? So what's the fun?
Oh, consolation. How many times did you hear that song on set?
And that was such I I'm realizing that I'm really enjoying movies again. I also started shrinking, which I really like. I love Jason Segel. So it's super enjoyable for me. The biggest deal of all. I read a fucking book, you guys. I read a fucking book. Thank you. Thank you. This week, we have a dear friend, Noah Beckon. He just started his first movie, Sideline, the QB and Me.
If you need time to think, I have an answer for myself.
I walked to in the backyard today and the other week I noticed, oh my God, I'm literally going to throw up thinking about it. I noticed that a mushroom was growing from the ground. Okay. And it just really bugged me out for some reason because it reminds me of my friend Trudy in college. She had a mushroom grow out of her wall in her apartment. Yeah, it was despicable. Out of a wall is nuts.
So that's what every time I think about mushrooms, it's just like- We're moving. Like fungi, like it's gross. Gross. Noah, I walked in the backyard today. It is mushroom land. Like it is mushroom land. There are five feet long mushrooms in our backyard. They are disgusting.
My southern friend Will told me that it means our grass is healthy. You still hate him. It gives me goosebumps in a gross way. You know how you have different types of goosebumps? It gives me goosebumps. I'm like, ooh, don't touch me. And then Will went to the backyard and started picking up all the mushrooms. And I said, not near me. What are you angry about? You're a pretty happy person.
You love your material things, but you're, like, very grounded.
No, they're just, like, not, like, the best people.
Yes, my mom's a Taurus.
So you really have nothing you're angry about?
Because it can be the slightest thing.
Like I forgot my headphones in my Uber the other day.
There was a part of me that was... Every time I lose something, there's always a part of me that's like, do I just fucking... Let go and let God. Right. If it's gone, it's gone. It's gone. It's gone. But in this case, I was like, no, I can't do that anymore.
You know what I mean?
The worst time it ever happened to me was one time I left my entire backpack with my computer and iPad and everything. Oof.
Did you? At the airport. So I went through security and there's videos of me prancing. I was so blacked out drunk. I was prancing around the airport with my bag and like not my backpack on and like I just didn't notice. And then my friend Cassidy showed me a video and was like, look how funny this is. And I was like, where's my backpack?
And then I realized it wasn't on me and I had left it and I was about to board my flight and I had to go upstairs back through security, have him drive back, which is so lovely for him to do, get my backpack, re-go through security again on a different flight. It was the worst night of my life.
What an inconvenience.
No, it makes for a funny story, but it was horrible.
Are you a good traveler?
She's a great traveler. How so? Like you, she has her routines. Like you have your things. Like, okay. I'm a very bad traveler.
Like, no, no, no. Like that was, I actually handled that well.
You can stream it on Tubi now. It's fantastic. He's fantastic. He's so funny, so kind, so talented. I'm sure most of you already know him very well, but I can't wait for you to know him more. a little more. We talk about his experience making the film, what he wants to do in the future, and we also talk about our favorite movies and such, which is my favorite topic, and TV shows and all that.
10 plus hour flight what are you doing one time when I went to Singapore I had a layover in San Francisco and I didn't and we missed our flight which is the worst night of my life by the way and we're gonna stay at the hotel in San Francisco like I got us pizza I'm like okay well I hate San Francisco and I hate pizza even more so I called an Uber from San Francisco to LA
Six and a half hours. We peed next to each other. He told me about his family business.
Yeah, I know everything about him. He was awesome.
Well, I think everyone. Do you like Oreos?
You know what I don't like about them? How rigid. I hate like the crema in the middle. Really? Yeah. Crema? The filling. The filling.
well I I hate the cream in the middle like the filling is like despicable to me okay and I hate the cookie honestly I hate everything about it so that's like a that's a perfect therapist moment yes but you know what I like fried Oreos how does that make sense what's your favorite candy Okay. Anything sour. So like a sour strip or a sour straw.
I don't think it's a problem.
My cheat meal? Like, if... See, I hate... When people ask me that, it, like, makes me feel so bad about myself because my cheat meal is every day. Like, every day, like, I cheat.
Um, like, a pound of white rice and, like, saucy chicken.
Seriously, anything. The thing is, you're like, wait, no, that's good for you. No, it's not.
No, I'm having pounds of rice. You don't understand how much rice I'm ingesting. I'll order my side of rice. I'll have
julia side of rice and then like i'll order a third side of rice that i'll have half of that's not right that's not normal what is it about rice it's it can it's like painting like you paint it like you know like start with it's with sauce like yeah it like becomes the food i love that i feel like i have those foods for me that are like
Do I ever whip out a minute rice, first of all?
First of all. First of all. You can't just do one minute rice. You have to do three. Is it like a soy sauce thing? Is it just the white rice? Do you want to hear my whole rice feel? Kind of. Okay, so I have a few different options of how I do my rice. Okay. Sometimes I'll do soy sauce and truffle oil. That sounds good. It's amazing. Okay.
I love you, pussies. Happy New Year. I'm so excited for this year. It's winter. We got this. I love you, pussies. Enjoy the episode. Hi, pussies. Welcome back to Therapus. Today we have one of my dear, dear friends. We've known each other for a while, I would say. We have. Actor. What the fuck is so funny? What the fuck is so funny?
Um, back when, uh, we, I used to live in West Hollywood, this, uh, restaurant, uh, called it's a Kyle was open. It burned down, which happens with a lot of the restaurants I enjoy. Which is weird. Yeah. It's an interesting pattern. So I used to get white rice, soy sauce, spicy mayo, and then a side of tempura crunch, and I'd pour it all together.
And then sometimes if I was feeling frisky, I would do, like, crispy onions on top.
Julia, you remember that? Yeah. So good.
Well, you know, before I made a puss account, it was going to be one bite rice. Really? Yeah, like how Dave Portnoy has like one bite pizza. Wow. Mine was going to be rice. I actually have a video of me doing it.
Octopus? My favorite octopus in the world is at this place in Boston. No, sorry, not Boston. It was at this place in... Where the fuck were we? Atlanta.
My favorite octopus in the world is at this place in Italy. I forget what it's called. And my favorite octopus in America is at the Optimist in Atlanta.
How did that become a thing? Like, how did you get...
Me and my friend would call Octopus Puss. And, like, we would always get it when we were out. And we would send each other photos and be like, Puss, Puss. And then.
I was like, I should make an Instagram account called Pass the Puss.
I have one more question before we get into the tell me what's wrong.
Do you have any future acting roles on the horizon? Anything you're excited about that you can talk about?
And if you can't talk about it, is there something?
I think you definitely can and will.
Are you a manifester?
Like for me, like my idea of manifestation is like different than like, Like, Peyton likes to write things down. Like, Peyton likes to write things down a lot.
So, like, if she wants to hook up with a guy, like, she will write it down. That's, like, her idea of manifestation. But also. That's crazy. But I also believe manifestation is just, like, putting your ideas and, like, believing that they can become real. And, like, just be, like.
Like, you don't have to say it out loud. You don't have to write it anywhere. But, like, you just know it. Like, and for me, when I write it, like, it doesn't actually work. Like, there was this guy I was hooking up with. And hooking up with, I use that term loosely because we actually hooked up once. And he hates me. But I really wanted to see him again. And I didn't see him.
So sometimes manifestation doesn't work. So it just really depends how you do it.
I knew that makes sense.
Well, yes, this is the first time. Sorry. I forgot that I dropped an episode on New Year's Day, but this is the first time in this new year that I'm actually sitting in this chair. I swear I have a deviated septum and I'm not just saying that to lay up a nose job. I really think I do because I whistle through my nose. And sometimes when I'm like talking to whoever's in this chair, like.
You have a really good head on your shoulders. I'm very superstitious. I actually have really bad OCD with it. Like I used to have these like SpongeBob sheets when I was a kid.
And one side had SpongeBob on it and then the other side had like Patrick on it. And I could only sleep with the side of SpongeBob facing up because one time I slept with the Patrick side facing up and I had a really bad luck that day. So like it does overtake my life. So you are right. I get that.
Why is it so funny? They never watch me record.
You know, the Ariana Grande, I mean, where it's like, I want to see what you just said written down on paper.
No, if you keep laughing, I'm going to say something you're not going to like.
Kind of a jinx thing.
You ready? You know what it is, too. They showered before you got here. Yeah.
Yeah. Well, I get it now.
Do you have any like friends that are actors and actresses that have given you advice along the way?
Wait, he's in red, white, royal blue.
They showered. They did a light beat.
I think you're also so nice and welcoming yourself that it invites that energy in from other people.
Is a sequel in the works?
And the film's doing well.
So you feel like other people are repetitive, but I'm not, is what you're saying.
This should be a thing. Well, congratulations on the film. Thank you.
Okay. Let me do this again. Are you having fun? I'm like, do you want to kill yourself?
I just acted in my first thing.
I'm realizing, sorry, you ever, like, realize something that you do and you're like, ew, I hate that I do that?
When I say something and I look for someone's reaction. I go, like.
It's just, like, I, like. Nevertheless. You know when you, like, view yourself from outside of your body? Of course. Of course.
I mean, either way, I know about the thing or not. Like, that's so cool. No, like, I'll say something. And, like, this is what I used to get made fun of in school a lot. But I would say something. And then, like, I'd go, like, waiting for the response.
Wait. That got her. You know how this goes, right? Oh, that's so awkward. You don't.
I don't. I see the clips. I do. Okay, so the pussy's right in. They give us advice and, you know. They give us advice. Or, sorry, they ask us for advice and we tell them, you know. Great. Okay, I like this. Just found out my stepmom fucked my boyfriend of four years.
He asked to grab his hoodie from my house while I was at class, and when I got home, there was freshly used dirty condom in her trash. She's very much single. I know it wasn't anyone else. Also, two days ago, she asked if we were sexually active and if I'm taking birth control. Weird. Help. Do I fuck his dad because he's a DILF status, or do I take the high road? I have, like, a thing for dad.
You're good. You're good at it. Hi pussies, welcome back to Therapist. Today we have a dear, dear friend on, actor and creative Noah Beck.
That's crazy. I have a thing for dad, so I would fuck the dad, like, regardless of the situation. Of course. What would you do? Naturally.
Like, what do you recommend she does?
I don't know what I would prescribe to that. Maybe Cinderella, a Cinderella story because the stepmom sucks. And she takes the high road and she becomes Cinderella.
I went out last weekend and got super drunk and did a lot of embarrassing things. I confessing to the guy I'm talking to that I don't want to date him because of his girl best friend. The anxiety has been eating me alive. What do I do to stop overthinking all the stupid shit I've done and move on? I'll tell you. You stream the hangover song featuring Snooki by Jake Shane off Piss and Pumps.
But it's so bad and so embarrassing that you're scared to ask.
Yeah, anyone. I'm, like, freaking out. I've been freaking out about it all day. Do you have a reoccurring one? No, it happened last night. I'm convinced it was a memory, though. No, it was a nightmare. Because, like, if... There's no way.
I'm so excited that you're here.
It was the moon. I swear to God it was the moon. I'm not even kidding because that week I was having a nightmare every single day. So I stopped smoking weed. It was like two, three weeks ago. Right.
Yeah, but not really. I guess I had a really bad nightmare last night. Nightmares suck. Do you ever have a dream and it's not a nightmare, but it's just not enjoyable?
Yeah, you're like, wait, I don't like this. It's not a nightmare, but this isn't fun for me.
Okay, so my friends never sit and watch the episodes, but they're outside right now because we all watched your movie the other night, The QB and Me, Sidelined.
Sometimes, like, Nolan really comes through with, like, the question to guest. Yeah. Like, you remember the hard-boiled egg situation? Yeah. In the last few years, I've really found an interest in on-screen acting, although I don't have time for it. I've been really considering doing high school theater, but I don't have any friends who are doing it, and I don't want to be labeled as a weird kid.
What should I do? See, that was me in high school, and I regret it every day of my life. Like, you don't want to live with regret. Like, I was too, like, insecure in myself because acting, especially in theater, requires, like, a lot of vulnerability. Of course. And, like, I was so insecure in myself. Aren't we all? We all are, but, like, I regret it so much.
And, like, just... And I ended up doing it my senior year. And just, like, ripping off the Band-Aid and doing it is, like, the best thing to ever happen to you. Like, if you have a passion, like, go for it.
What? Yeah. Theater, acting, it's my number one regret in my life. Yeah.
Yeah. Other things, but... Yeah.
Piggyback. We deserve each other.
Is it Sidelined, colon, The QB and Me, or The Q... Bingo, first one.
What's your biggest... Oh, sorry.
Sorry. No. What's your biggest regret?
Was it hard for you to give up soccer or were you just so excited about everything happening?
How long did it take you to make it?
Well, we all watched Sidelined, colon, The QB and Me, and everyone is clinically addicted, so they are now sitting and watching. Okay.
And learn about it. You did. I did. I'm a high school seat. Why? That was like a Debbie moment for me, for sure. You know, Debbie Ryan. Yeah. I love Debbie Ryan. Same, but like, you know, like a Debbie moment.
Just like sometimes I say things and it's Debbie. Okay. I feel like my entire like life gives the energy of that one Madison Beer clip where she's like, I was supposed to be in the video. Like that's like my entire life. Like that's like the energy I give off. Like, especially when I was talking to you about, and I've been thinking about this ever since.
How long did that movie take you to film?
Sorry, I also spilled Celsius on the chair and it's so fucking sticky. But I was talking to you about it and I was like, I remember when you were going to the upfronts for, like, I remember, I remember, like, that's giving I was supposed to be in the video. You know what I mean? But I did talk to you about that. So don't feel like. No, I know. Madison was supposed to be in the video.
I'm a high school senior, and I've been dating my girlfriend for three months. She's convinced we're going to college together, but I definitely want to break up before. When and how should I tell her?
Well, let me tell you something. Don't do what he did in Sideline and make believe that you're going somewhere else because Dallas had a good response, but many people wouldn't.
But I definitely want to break up before. That's awkward.
They might go to college together, but they want to break up still.
My roommate is so annoying. All she does is talk 24-7 and never gives me any time in silence. She will even sit and talk to herself if I don't respond.
Look. It sounds like she just doesn't like her roommate because, like, I have a friend that behaves that way.
And I play a game with him where it's, like, I see how long I can be quiet for until they notice.
Yeah, it's really funny.
He talks to himself. He responds to himself. He, like, I don't know. Like, it's really crazy. It's Will. Actually, it's Will who's sitting out there. Going sober from drinking and smoking weed. I haven't told my friend, but she is pretty much an alcoholic. She smokes and drinks to excess every day like I used to do. Should I tell her I'm going sober or just drop her?
We've only been friends for, like, six months. Only been friends for six months. Monks? Sorry. Only been friends for six months. Like, to me, that sounds like you became friends through the substance.
If you're contemplating dropping... I mean, I don't think I'm never straight to the drop. I hate... I don't like that.
I would say... tell her you're going sober and see her reaction. Especially six months in.
I also just went sober from weed and it is very hard.
Well, because they say it's not addictive.
But it definitely feels that way because I shouldn't be as having as this hard of a time with it as I am. Right. But like, I – you don't drink or smoke.
So what did you do on the days that you didn't shoot? Because that's only two and a half weeks.
It's just – it's like everything about it. It's like I get bored. Ooh, I want to smoke. Ooh, I'm in bed to relax. Ooh, I want to smoke. Ooh, I'm stressed out. Ooh, I want to smoke. Yeah. Ooh, I wake up. Uh, I want to smoke. Like, do you know what I mean?
That's not proper. So I just quit as well. And I can imagine how I know how hard it is. So if it makes your journey easier to cut this person off and like, you got to do what you got to do.
And also I was having, I was realizing, I was realizing like I have a very fragile brain and, Like, I have a very sensitive brain and, like, I don't, like, I realize, like, it's just, like, I don't need to be fucking with it as much as I am. Right. You know what I mean? Like, there's no point. Like, if I don't need to do it, like, why would I? Right. Like, I'm on meds for anxiety.
Speaking of anxiety, Nolan, how do you deal with anxiety in public? I feel like I can never control it. What are some of your coping skills?
Yeah, I think, to put it simply, no one is thinking about you as much as you are thinking about you.
I have never taken that advice to heart personally. It's easier said than done.
It really, really is. I mean, but it is hard in situations like with you when people are looking at you and watching you. Yeah. Do you have any coping mechanisms for whenever you do get anxious? Yeah. Is that, that's just, that's your coping mechanism?
Yeah. Yeah. My roommate smells so bad. Like, even if she's standing near me while I'm cooking, I lose my appetite because it's so bad. I normally tell someone they smell, but it's like her biggest insecurity. Well, rightfully so. And she does so much to try to smell good, but at this point I think it must be medical. How the fuck do I tell her without hurting her feelings?
I'm so lucky that, like, none of my friends smell bad.
So I've never had to face that. Like, if anyone ever smells bad, like, it's probably me. Like, you know, I don't know. Like, it probably is. But I did. I don't know. It definitely is medical. Like, when you lived with people, you live alone now.
Did you ever live with someone that smelled so bad?
Oh. What'd they smell like?
You never brought it up.
Like there's like, you kind of just have to move out.
Yeah. They all smell bad. It's crazy.
They don't. I don't know why. I mean, look, I'm sure deodorant isn't great for the environment and I'm, totally understanding of that. But at the same time, like a lot of things aren't good for the environment.
Like, you know what I mean?
It's just crazy that her biggest insecurity is indeed warranted. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like I feel like normally like what someone's insecure about, you're like, oh, that's not true. But like in her case, like it's true.
And the best time. Oh, sorry. No, you first.
Jake, dot, dot, dot. My ex-best friend had one of my exes in her dorm last night, and this is not the first time she's hung out with guys I've been with previously. Should I confront her or be the bigger person and leave it alone?
Her ex-best friend is hanging out with one of her exes.
I prescribe X for a reason. Who sings that song again? It's Summer Walker and who though? City Girls. Yes. City Girls. I prescribe X for a reason. Yeah. Summer Walker with the City Girls. I'm going to a party but have not had my first kiss yet and I'm scared. Literally, I'm 20 years old. Also, I want to get blackout drunk. Any advice? Definitely don't get blackout drunk.
Well, like, I didn't have my first kiss until I was 18, so, like, don't feel bad about it. Everyone's on their own path and their own journey. Yeah. And it was not well.
First of all, being blackout drunk is not fun. It's not enjoyable. It's not, like... I don't know. It's not... It's not something to be, like, envious of. Like, I feel like the first few times, like, you blackout, you laugh. And then, like, the third time, like, you're like, oh, this isn't funny. Like, it's not funny. It's not cool. Not remembering what you... It's not cute.
I don't know. It was... Well, the question was... The question I was going to ask that I so rudely interrupted you with was that did you guys... Did the cast get close? Like, were you all very close on set?
It's not... Not remembering what you did is not fun. It's actually quite traumatizing. Yeah. Especially if you end up in situations where you're blackout drunk alone. Like... And then like there is this certain point with drinking where if you black out so often, it does – I don't know if there's like a science behind it, but it does start to happen easier. Blacking out is just so miserable.
Like there was a point in time in college when I would just wake up. I'd be like, oh, last night happened.
And that was our last Tell Me What's Wrong. Now, before I ask you what we learned today, I always love to ask my guests, what are you listening to right now and what are you watching? Because you watch a lot.
I was on a date with this guy and I guessed his literal top five because it was my top five.
It was Taylor, Sabrina, Chapel, Ariana, and Charlie. Fair enough.
I love Gracie Abrams. I love... Laura plays her. I've read Pilates class.
What are some of your favorite podcasts?
um devil wears prada really like just like that you have answers to a lot of things that like thank you yeah thank you that's like a good it's my favorite movie of all time devil wears prada and also i guess it wouldn't be like my favorite movie but a movie i've seen so many times just because like i number one like it number two i feel like just been in situations where i've had to see it have you ever seen prisoners of course yeah prisoners is great yeah
Are you watching... Oh, my God. It's disturbing.
Are you watching any TV shows right now?
Do you know... Have you seen Dune with...
I thought you were saying Doom. No, Dune, Dune, Dune.
I've heard it's good, actually. I've heard that's good.
Oh, I've heard that's amazing as well.
Wait, so have you seen, sorry, off topic, I guess not really. Have you seen the first Dune part one and part two? I have. Is part two as amazing as people say?
There's a part three?
Timothee Chalamet is booked and fucking busy. Yeah.
Okay, I need to watch it. I'm watching Killing Eve right now. Have you ever seen Killing Eve? I haven't. It's really good. It's really good.
I'm a big TV guy as opposed to a movie guy. Really? I like falling into like worlds that like last. I don't like things that end.
Love Game of Thrones.
I didn't love the end day, but who did?
It clogs up right here, and I, like – and, like, it vibrates in my ears, and I'm, like – I know that's a deviated septum. And then I went to an ear – hello – an ear, nose, and throat doctor, and they told me – you know when you just don't want to continue talking? Yeah. It's not important. Honestly, it's not. It's 2025. This is my first time. Did I already fucking say that?
I've never seen greatest showman.
This is me. I am who I gotta be. This is me.
Well, I'm on Killing Eve thing right now. How many times have you rewatched Greatest Showman?
It used to be Mean Girls. I loved Mean Girls. That was my comfort movie. And then, yeah, Devil Wears Prada became it really quickly because I, similar to you in Greatest Showman, I remember exactly where I was and the feeling I had when I watched it and the feeling I had when I watched it. Have you seen Devil Wears Prada? Of course.
So the feeling I had when I watched it, it's like when you watch a movie and like you take that feeling for the rest of your life, that's kind of something I did with that movie.
The feeling I got was put your work above everything because I hated that she like dropped all her – that she like caved into her annoying friends and boyfriend that like wasn't happy for her success. And like you can argue that like she also didn't – wasn't happy.
but like that to me was a cool job and i would have been happy doing that yeah so when she left in paris at the end because of her boyfriend and her friends and whatever i was like oh my god that will never be me i will always put my career above everything yeah i don't know if that's the lesson i was supposed to take from the movie but it is what it's like the polar opposite of
Oh, well, you know what Lady Gaga says, right? What does she say? Your career will never wake up and leave you in the morning. No, sorry, sorry. She says your career will never wake up and tell you it doesn't love you anymore.
So you like movie musicals?
You are very open-minded.
Oh, my God, I thought you said did it.
I've never, wait, what's that one about? Have I seen that one?
Damn. I feel like I definitely haven't seen it and I really want to watch it now.
Oh, those are the best.
Have you seen My Old Ass yet? I haven't. You gotta watch it.
It's on my list. Noah, what did we learn today?
I would love to, Noah. I miss you.
Well, I would love to hang out more. That is the best What Did We Learn Today I've ever gotten.
Thank you for coming.
Pussies, thank you for being here. Noah, do you want to give a little bye, pussies? Bye, pussies. Bye, pussies. We love you.
And maybe, um, like, do you, did you feel like, you know how like social media, like sometimes doesn't feel like work.
Like you have a hard time being like, I worked today and it's like, you know what I mean? But like you, didn't you feel like, no, I, I worked today.
I'm so happy for you. I remember you were so excited about it.
What was the prep like for the movie? Like, when did you meet... Because I remember you said you were, like, going to meet your castmates. I remember that. But did you meet them, like, once and then just start filming? Or did you, like, get to know each other a little bit? How did that work?
How do you like chemistry test over Zoom?
So should we do it? Like I want to, can we like, I want to play.
I'm in the waiting room.
Okay. Oh my God. Okay. I saw, I'm so nervous. Like I'm so nervous.
I swear to God, you guys, I haven't smoked weed in almost 40 days. And my memory, thank you, Nolan. And my memory isn't any better. I do feel way more awake and I'm able to work out better. But I'm just as bitter, jealous, and anxious. As always, honestly, I'm just a little less lazy, which I guess is a plus and a win is a win. So, yeah. I'm trying to be an intellect in 2025.
No, please. I want this to be as realistic as possible.
Hi, I'm Jake. I'm Noah. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. I know who you are. Thank you.
I love everything you do. Really? Yeah, I love everything you do. Oh, this is going to go great then. Yeah, I know. I'm so excited. How long have you been attached to the project for?
I don't know why. I just, like, I don't know what that is.
I remember this. This is when you said you were going to go meet her.
Okay, so you know what I'm realizing that we haven't done yet? Yes. Should we crack open our Celsius?
I literally need one. Love Celsius. Cheers!
We have to open it first.
Okay, I got the peach vibe. Peach vibe. Eyes...
Oh, no, my question was, you filmed in June. When did you see a final cut of the movie?
Yeah, so I'm really trying to like appreciate art. So I've seen, I watched two movies on the plane. I watched The Prestige, which is an old one. And I watched Enora, which was actually the best movie I've seen in years. And then I, what did I watch? Oh, and then I saw Nosferatu. And like, I'm just too fucking stupid for that movie. Like, I did not understand a single thing that was going on.
They were. Were there any scenes that like you cut because your friends were like, cut that?
You did an incredible job. Seriously, you should be very proud of yourself.
Was it hard for you to watch yourself on screen?
Yeah.
Sounds really good.
