Starting point is 00:00:00 It's time to go one-on-one with D.P. Coming at you live from the heart of Lincoln America, a 93-7-a-ticket and the Ticketfm.com. Here is your host, Derek Pearson. Hour number two. Dance in the car. Let the kids dance. Go ahead and dance, Mom.
Starting point is 00:00:35 Dag and dance. It's okay. Say what? It's a car party in Lincoln. Buddy, buddy, buddy, buddy. We appreciate it. That's so good. Some sauce for the ride. Appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:01:04 Harrison, we have special guests coming up at 5.30. Who we got coming in? Yeah, we got some cast members from the Nebraska. Let me get this correct here. We got the wolves coming in here from the Nebraska Repertory Theater. And we got, I believe, four total guests. And they're members of the wolves, which is a fast-based drama. All's high school girls soccer team is navigate competition, identity,
Starting point is 00:01:25 and challenges through their high school. And that is September 30th through October 11th, are the performances down there in the studio theater. You can go to Nebraska rep.org to find some ticket options available for you. So let's some cast members will get their thoughts on the play and what they have coming up and all the excitement around it. Yeah, let's tell us some of the stories. Let's get down there and get out and support.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Man, you're looking for something to do for the next three days. Get up there. Let's go watch. Let's go be a part of it. I could use that. I need some more culture of my life. Yeah, you do. Don't say it like that. Come on now. I'm glad you said it. I'm glad you said it.
Starting point is 00:02:03 I'm okay. You confirm. I'm just wanting for you better for you. That's what I want. Thanks. That's what I want for you. Once again, I do want to shout out, send prayers to our boy chubs up from Soul for Casina's got a procedure tomorrow morning. We are with you, bro.

Appreciate you for what you're doing and how you do it. And again, shout out to the folks from men's tennis. You know, the tournament here. You got a chance. So you got plenty to do. You can go see play.
Starting point is 00:02:39 You can go watch tennis. And pretty good, pretty good, pretty good week worth setting up for Indiana. It's a great week. Yeah. Setting up for Indiana, Wisconsin. Wisconsin's in town. Dennis? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:53 I think here's, okay. So I'll give the football folks their sauce for Indian. And a big part of what we were watching. I have to remember to cleanse my palate when we get into the film study version portion of the week. Because if you're watching film, one, you're comparing. apples to oranges because you're comparing this year's Nebraska team to this year's Indiana team as they currently exist. You're not comparing.
Starting point is 00:03:36 You're not looking at the 52-7 from two years ago. Right. You're not looking at that different, different. One, it gives you philosophy. And there's evidence in the 52-7. Yeah. But that's a different group of players, a different system, and then different players on the Nebraska side as well.
Starting point is 00:03:51 So it looks different. It looks different than it a year ago. They are different than the national. championship team in some aspects, but they brought some things forward and they brought some tendencies. Tendencies is the thing that when you watch the broadcast groups go in, they'll bring a quarterback in the room and a coordinator in a room to ask questions about what they see. Here's what we see on tape, Coach. What do we have? And they want to do that to have information before of the broadcast so that you know what you see and you have confirmation or reaffirmation
Starting point is 00:04:23 for what you see. So I go from that perspective that self-scouting is important, so I can look at Nebraska and look at the things that happened a week ago in the most recent evidence, and then look at Indiana a week ago against Rutgers. I have to be honest in saying that I have to watch Nebraska first half, cleanse the palate, watch Nebraska second half, half, cleanse the palate, watch Indiana, first half, cleanse the palette, watch Indiana
Starting point is 00:05:04 second half in order to get a real good feel. And then in that space, then I have to, what I like to do is look at Nebraska offensively, first half, Nebraska offensively, second half. Tendencies show up, common attack points show up. Then you cleanse the palette and you look at Nebraska defensively. And again, remember that when you watched Nebraska defensively against Maryland, it's not the same as against Indiana. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:34 So you're looking at concepts. What are you doing down in distance in this situation? Third and six against Maryland in the first half or third and six against Maryland and second half, two totally different situations and scenarios. You also have to look at game situation. Yeah, that makes your point. We gave up 300 yards to Maryland in the first half and then what, 70, 60 something? But you also have to look at down-and-distance situation in the game,
Starting point is 00:05:59 what personnel is on the field because people get hurt, so you have to replace and you have to fill in. Nebraska did that, and it affected them. So when Tree Babolati gets in the game, it is a different group up front than previously. You're doing different things, specializing in different things, and capitalizing on different matchups. But those matchups may not be in play for India.
Starting point is 00:06:20 They may be better at those positions. All the things in play. We know that Indiana, tendency-wise, run the ball and throw it with equal balance. Yep. And success. Yep, a good screen game. That they'll utilize a bit. So then you have to start to ask questions.
Starting point is 00:06:39 What does Indiana want to do more than anything else offensive? And the answer may intrigue you. The answer may be different. You would think that you want to establish to one game. But is that the state in the truth? do they want the option to throw the ball whenever they want first down second down third down short yardage long distance medium distance does it matter and it all depends how Nebraska comes out for those first three plays too well it also matters what they see in film study and what matchups they like they see their matchups differently than Nebraska does if you're Nebraska defensively do you want
Starting point is 00:07:25 to take something away. We don't know that answer, but we would imagine that they would want to take away points. Ah, see, some people go, take away the run game. If you take away the run game and you focus
Starting point is 00:07:43 on taking away the run game and you concede all the things you have to concede to take away the run game for Indiana, you open up the passing game. And when you miss in the run game, you have corrective space. You have wiggle room. If you miss in the passing game, it's seven points.
Starting point is 00:08:00 And Hoover's 16 touchdowns, zero picks on the year. So one, but then you have to ask yourself the question about what that means about Hoover. Is he that good? Is the play calling that good? Are the playmakers around him that good? Is he taking big throws and turning them in the point? Or is his receivers taking short throws and making a play and running down the field and banging their head on the goal post.
Starting point is 00:08:28 All of those answers would be yes. All of those answers would be true. But then what will you take away against who? You've got to take away something. Because if you let him just stand back there and play catch, which is what Rutgers did, good heavens, man. You allowed this guy to stand back there and play catch. There was no pressure.
Starting point is 00:08:48 They said, listen, we're going to hold to run fit. We're going to take away the deep pass, but we're going to give you everything else. Well, I mean, you know, it seems ridiculous, but like that's the Iowa approach. And Iowa's been one of Indiana's. But I was good at it. I was better at it than Rutgers.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Yes, they are. They have longer history, greater evidence in Rutgers. 100%. So if you're Nebraska, what do you do? The answer is that we don't know. We don't know what the preference is going to be,
Starting point is 00:09:22 but the priority would be when you watch Indiana, let's go to drive number one. And I'll do this throughout the course of the week. But if you go to drive one with Indiana, you notice some things were true, that they weren't bound by down and distance in their play call. Because they have two plays called. And the read for me would have been numbers in the box.
Starting point is 00:09:49 How many defensive players were in the box for Rutgers would dictate what they would do? Now here's something else that would also point out to me. And again, depending on your secondary and what talent you have out there, Rutgers gave Spacey out on the perimeter. First series, they were six, seven, eight in the box with man coverage, but they had a cushion. So what did Indiana do?
Starting point is 00:10:13 They looked at film and said, well, if they come up eight in the box and give us man out here and a cushion, death by 1,000 paper cuts to Rutgers, we're going to hit you with the sixes and sevens, and then make your defensive act make plays. Well, did they make plays? No. Because they were better,
Starting point is 00:10:31 Indiana was better at the receiver position than Rutgers were at the quarterback position. They'd run the hedge, catch, outside pivot to the sideline, up the sideline for 30 yards. Oh boy, what have we done? Then they line up again. Run heavy set.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Rutgers adjust. It looks like there's seven in the box. It looks like there's seven in the box. So what would you do? Well, you're still giving them. me in coverage. I'm going to throw the ball to open space. Now, there were some real panic amongst Rutker defenders and doing their job. The adage is don't look for business. Business is coming. Right. Very long. Don't look for it. Well, their linebackers constantly look for work.
Starting point is 00:11:18 And they would leave the responsibility and lead the lane and give a clean throwing space to crossing routes across the middle, which is the easiest throw for any big to quarterback. back to me. Yeah. So the first. They weren't as comfortable doing that kind of style of defense. Guys got a little bit antsy going against one of the top offenses in the country. Link to the field. You're letting him play
Starting point is 00:11:40 pitch and catch. Touched. Touched up. Right? Because you didn't get any pressure on him. So you allowed him to get to primary receiver, if he was identified, secondary receiver, but sometimes the secondary receiver was the primary focus. Because you needed your second, you needed your first receiver to occupy two.
Starting point is 00:11:58 defenders. Secondary receiver runs a corner route, gets to the sideline, there's nobody there. It's an easy pitch and catch. Then they get into the run sequence where you changed because you just got pummeled on the ground, on the air. So what do you do? You put fewer people in the box and you're covering some of these routes. Well, Hoover sees it and he goes, okay, well, run game, activated. And here's the thing. Rutgers did a really good job. and their run fit. They didn't finish the play. They didn't get them to the term.
Starting point is 00:12:34 It was poor tackling. There was twice where they had Indiana in a run situation where literally the play should have been stopped for no game. But a defender got engaged. Let me say this about Indiana and I'll say it now. If I'm Nebraska, I'm calling the Big Ten and I'm sending them a reel of the first two drives. Because you know what Indiana is really good at?
Starting point is 00:12:57 Holding. Yeah. holding. The Hoosers hold. The Indiana holders is what I was called. The Indiana grab, grab, grab. All they do is grab. And they one arm grab,
Starting point is 00:13:11 and they grabbed to the impact to the ball side of the play, which made it difficult for a defender to get his second arm up to get leverage. So you had missed tackles, broken tackles up front, and then you had man coverage or secondary behind them with their back
Starting point is 00:13:28 to turn to the runners, and you had long, big plays. And they only got charged for zero penalties that game. Branding matters. Branding matters. Branding matters. Branding matters. What's the brand? What's the Nebraska brand to the Big Ten coming into this game? 16 penalties accepted. Right. Somebody will do the math and tell us how many were actually called. Some weren't, weren't accepted. Those don't show up miraculously. It wasn't a good day for the refs either.
Starting point is 00:14:03 They had a PAT. Whoopsies. Sorry, here's a big 10 statement about it. I think it didn't matter, but we messed up. If you were a betting man, do you think Nebraska gets the majority of the 50-50 calls this week? Or does Indiana, the national reigning defender national champion on national TV? My teams live with attacks.
Starting point is 00:14:22 The Bears tax and the Huskers tax. I don't like to make these things real, but sometimes I'm like, really? Feel it. Yeah. Feel it. Mm-hmm. I think it's subconsciously.
Starting point is 00:14:31 It just happens with rats. when they think if that team's better even if they're not intentionally doing it i just think well he's just a better play that's why he got ran over okay 48 50 says this yeah already blaming the rest before the game are you not listening did you not listen pay attention that's that boy just tuned in man look at the film we're given evidence man what are you talking about Look at it. Here's the thing. Inside Zone Re, stop to the line of scrimmage, left guard blocks downhill, gets inside hand, outside hand, leverage hand,
Starting point is 00:15:19 on the shoulder pad of the defender from Rutgers. Running back cuts off his tail as he's coached to do. That defender now, because he is restricted with that second arm, the leverage arm. he cannot tackle a 210-pound moving missile. So holding had in play. It was actually in pay. Outside leverage was the running back in motion coming downhill, a magic, imagine for the Huskers,
Starting point is 00:15:49 it's Luke Lindenmeier. Leverage. Inside leverage, hand to the shoulder pad. The defender sees it, tries to shoot the hand up to get leverage back, but by the time he gets the leverage back, the running backs behind him. Now, if you tell me that holding doesn't matter, then okay, fine. What I'm telling you as a coach, that is taught, that is coached,
Starting point is 00:16:16 and it is exceptionally done by the Indiana Hoosier. Yes, it is. Now, if you could go and watch film for six hours and then tell me the Indiana doesn't hold up front, I'll wait for your report. Feel free. Feel free. we're talking about evidence from last week.
Starting point is 00:16:34 Not talking about. I asked you if, in fact, a team has zero penalties on the week prior. And another team has 16 penalties called accepted. Who is more likely to be called for penalties in the game? So you're blaming the refs already? I'm just kidding. Obviously. I'm telling you what the referees did.
Starting point is 00:17:00 What is wrong with people? Are we, are we that, are we that averse to fact and evidence? No, I think it's just quick, quick info generation. That was all the fun. Man, oh man. We're blanking. I ain't doing today. Good to hear from you.
Starting point is 00:17:19 Good to see you. So to heard an amazing stat during the Big Ten preview of Indiana. This is the ninth straight season that Kurt Signetti has had a first year starter for his pro league of a quarterback. The previous eight renamed first team all conference. And here's the thing, then you have to ask the next question. Why? Why?
Starting point is 00:17:38 He knows what he's doing over there. Why? They had the maple rifle, Curtis Rourke, your one, look like an absolute dude. Where did you get them from? You chose them. Yeah. And you were specific in what you wanted. I read on the text on earlier day, he said, well, Signetti brought players from James Madison.
Starting point is 00:17:58 No, he brought his play. He bought Signetti guys from James Madison. And as coordinators who are still there. And your coordinators and your coaches and your quarterback, when you identify who my next team leader is going to be, that my next team leader has to fit, he has to check certain boxes. And when you find him, you're finding people that, one, you don't make mistakes with the ball. How many interceptions did the Heisman Trophy winner have last year? Not many, right?
Starting point is 00:18:27 Now. Hoover has zero. If you're not turning the ball over, if you have a coach and it all, offensive system that says, listen, quite frankly, above everything else, I'm going to find out the throws that you can make the most often without making mistakes. And I'm going to call those plays. Now, some interceptions are just happenstance. You know what? Bounces off a receiver, pops up straight in the air.
Starting point is 00:18:50 Okay, somebody picks it off. They haven't even had those. And you're not talking about fully contested throws. Go back and watch Indiana's first four, the last four games, not the first one. The last four games, you're not making high-risk throws. You're making highly effective throws in open space. Quite frankly, now I'll tell you, that back-shadow to throw was a work of art. And he has three of them in the last four games where amazingly those receivers set the table.
Starting point is 00:19:26 They set balance. They said they had the proper leverage because they knew the out-the-back throw. Listen, if somebody's going to run with me as a defensive back, knowing that my quarterback will make the decision that we've talked about, listen, if Harris and I are even, if I'm even throw above me, if I can't get the win, and we know this because we practiced it, if I can't get the win from there, back shoulder is the win. And to make the same decision at the same time is coaching,
Starting point is 00:19:58 and it's drilled, and it's on purpose. purpose, veteran quarterback, even if you're first year quarterback, doesn't mean you're not a veteran. Your veteran at that program on that team that year, but it doesn't mean that you're new to the game. Now, give Kalanji credit because the same thing applies. He's a veteran quarterback. He's a bit of a gunslinger, so there's some risk to some of the decisions he made. But so far, I mean, really only the one interception that made you scratch your head. It's the other one where you go.
Starting point is 00:20:28 There are a couple of throws that went short and you just went, oh boy, let's get. Right. Hit turf. I'm good. But coaching, coaching plays, the things that are practiced show up on Saturday, the drill is in play, and just give Signetti credit for having a system in which one, he identifies the talent he needs a position, the plays that he's going to ask them to make. Can you make them in high repetition and high efficiency on a regular basis against top level talent? That's what that is. Now, I don't know that we would line up and say Indiana is the best receivers of the Big Ten or in the country.
Starting point is 00:21:03 But we will say we will probably take them on our team, whatever team that is. Right. Because they don't make mistakes. They're where they're supposed to. They win on the clock that's assigned. And what they do with Hoover is get the ball out of his hand into open space quickly. It's on time and on purpose. And then the receivers know, Hoover throws us to green.
Starting point is 00:21:26 He throws us open. He doesn't throw us to traffic. He doesn't throw us in the hits. He throws us into traffic. He throws it into open space that listen, if Harrison run down O Street and I'm throwing him where the cars are, he's not going to run as fast. But if he knows. If I know that through practice and drills that you have the confidence in me throwing you open, that I'm never going to throw you into a truck coming the other direction, you can run free. That's Indiana football offensively in the past game.
Starting point is 00:21:57 That's what's happened. Back to one-on-one with D.P. sponsored by the downtown Lincoln Foundation on 93 7 the ticket. All right, welcome back in one-on-one. I'm going to set and then I'm going to hand it to you because I want to do it this way. 533 to the city. Lincoln America. We appreciate you guys hanging out with us.
Starting point is 00:22:24 We've got a special segment here for you. For you old curmudgins, it'll be okay because football will happen no matter what. But we're going to go in a different direction here. if you would please. Yeah, absolutely. Again, we've got an interesting full studio. If you guys are watching the streams on Facebook X, but we got the Nebraska Rip Thor's Theater group in here
Starting point is 00:22:45 and they're a cast members from the wolves coming up here. So I think the best thing to do there, we'll start all the way on the end there, introduce who you are, and then your role in this upcoming theater that we got coming on with the wolves. Awesome. Well, my name is Hattie Chavanaugh. I am currently a senior BFA acting major
Starting point is 00:23:00 at the University of Nebraska Lincoln, and I play number 25 in the wolves. What's BFA? A BFA is a BFA. bachelor in fine arts. Oh, good heavens. How do I don't know that? Wonderful. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:23:16 Next. Hi, I'm Brooke DeZarmo. I'm a sophomore BFA acting major at the Johnny Carson School of Theater and Film, and I play 13 in The Wolves. My name's Jill Premack. I am a landscape architect here in town and an actor,
Starting point is 00:23:31 and I play the soccer mom. My name is Jordan Gabrielson. I'm a junior BFA acting major at the Johnny Carson School of Theater and Film and I play number 14. Number 14. So in the casting of all of this, personality types, do you get to see the work before you audition for it?
Starting point is 00:23:51 Or does the teacher and leader kind of have an idea about who they want to use for what? I mean, it just kind of depends. As an actor, it's your job to read the script, get an idea of what the characters call for, what the script calls for. So you have a pretty good idea, going into an audition but once auditions happen it is the director's job to see where you are
Starting point is 00:24:16 best fit and what they want to do with the show and what direction they want to go is there some ego attitude about leads and other how does that play i think there always is this show though is very very ensemble based there's not really clear leads in the show We all play a very, very big part and the show couldn't happen without any one of us. So this is a really good team-building show, I think, and we all work really, really well together as a team. And I think that was a big, big part of the success that we've had with this show. Everyone pretty much has very equal playing time. For the most part.
Starting point is 00:24:58 Yeah. There's a surprise at the end of the show. You'll have to come see it. We're not giving away, CECATTS. I know. We're not going to tell anyone. We don't need that along the way, but there's some renown to being at the University of Nebraska-Linking in this department and putting on these plays. So I would ask you, in this space, how important is it to work at the level where you feel like you're getting benefit from it and you're proud of the work that's being done?
Starting point is 00:25:26 I think that the Nebraska Repertory Theater, it's a very professional atmosphere. I have, this is my first show with the rep. And I grew up going to the rep with my mom when I was a teenager. And so it's very full circle to now be on that stage in a show about being a teenager, among other things. But I have been so impressed with the professionalism of the show when you come into a college space. You don't really know what to expect, right? and it's been it's been amazing experience.
Starting point is 00:26:04 Is it this, is this, where would you put Nebraska amongst its peers when it comes to art department, repertory work, having the vehicles to actually be a part of? Yeah, I think Nebraska has an excellent program. I think the students can definitely speak to it more than I can, but I think it's, I mean, you guys are there and you're awesome. It's kind of a diamond in the rough. This program is very, very, it has very, very high expectations and high standards. And the way that it's run is very, very much to get us into the industry.
Starting point is 00:26:43 And like when I was auditioning for colleges, I had no idea. Nebraska existed. And it's really starting to make a name for itself. I was very, very surprised with how good of a program it was coming in. Yeah. It's a very, very new program. When I auditioned, this is now my fourth year here, my class is basically one of the first classes to officially go through the program without significant drastic changes to the curriculum. So you're the pioneers for this thing.
Starting point is 00:27:16 That doors open, right, in the space. Okay, then that explains some of it. Yeah. How do each of you end up here? Where's home? And how do you make the choice? I am originally from York, Nebraska. So I'm just 45 minutes west, but these two are a little farther.
Starting point is 00:27:34 I'm from Lafayette, Louisiana. I auditioned for about over like 15 programs, and I was mainly auditioning for musical theater programs when I was auditioning. But I decided, like, last minute that I really wanted to give film and, like, acting just to try. And Nebraska came up, and honestly, I'm so grateful I'm here. So that's, it was a long, long journey, but I'm very thankful to be. here? I go ahead. Oh, I'm a local girl born and raised in Lincoln. Lincoln East 97.
Starting point is 00:28:05 You got to get the direction. I don't come get you. I am from McGowan, Texas. I also auditioned for about 30 plus different schools. And in the end, the Johnny Carson School was very, very generous with the help that they were giving me and like financially and what they had to say to me to get me to come here was very thought out and they had everything I was looking for
Starting point is 00:28:36 like Brooke I was also auditioning for musical theater programs and here they do significantly more film work than they do in other acting in musical theater programs and also they let you minor in musical theater which is something that a lot of programs don't do so I was kind of getting the best of all of my worlds and that really really really drew me
Starting point is 00:28:55 Having spent time in McAllen, Texas, I'll ask, how did they feel about you not ending up in Austin? So the Austin thing is tricky. When I was auditioning, they didn't actually have a BFA. Okay. They had mainly a BA and they had a program. It's very, very good for theater education. They do like film stuff, but they don't have a BFA in acting. That might have changed because I know that they were trying to get that in the works,
Starting point is 00:29:29 but that was just not something that I was looking for at the time. Same thing with like A&M. I probably would have gone there if they had a BFA. But yeah, it just wasn't what I was looking for. And in the end, Nebraska ended up being the perfect fit for me. I'll ask the veteran, what number, what number show is this for you? This is my fourth show with Nebraska repertoire. theater. But during my time at UNL, I've been in seven shows. Where are the other shows?
Starting point is 00:30:03 I was in crimes of the heart through theatrics. Theatrics is a student-run program that we do. Through the Johnny Carson School, it's incredible. It's awesome. And then I also did Tick-Tick-Bomb this past, or last year. That was also through Theatrix. Actually, it was six. Those are the shows that I've done. But yeah. So in that space, I mean, we're really talking about five years from now. Students will come to University of Nebraska, enter to this program, and you're going to be a North Star. You're going to be the path that they follow. Yeah. And the person that they talk about because you were a part of these things that make the way. Yeah, for sure. And there are some incredible, I have had some incredible leaders that were before me that really had to pay.
Starting point is 00:30:55 pave the way. And it's just amazing to see where they're at. And I know a lot of my good friends are in L.A. now or New York. And so it's just amazing to see where I can go now that I am going to spread my wings. And now I have these four years under my belt. What does that look like? When I graduate, I'll graduate this spring. I'm looking at L.A. or New York.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I spent time in London this summer with the sophomore class, now junior class. We spent time at Shakespeare's Globe. We worked with Frantic Assembly, and we saw show after show after show at the National Theater at Shakespeare's Globe and just all around London. So London is also a thought, but what's amazing about Nebraska and our curriculum is that they prep you for that and they have classes for that. So they set you up with a senior showcase that you'll send off to agents in L.A., New York, wherever you want to go, Chicago, even too. And you have all of the tools that you need.
Starting point is 00:32:01 So when you graduate, you're ready because it's not easy. Being an actor is not easy. And I think some people think that sometimes it is just memorizing and knowing you're blocking. But, yeah, it is a whole different ballpark. And those influencers are getting in the world. Oh, yeah. Don't get you started. Those influences were getting in the way.
Starting point is 00:32:24 I know actors really don't like it, which is why I bring it up. What's the North Star for you? What does it look like? Kind of similar. I have a long way to go before that's my like before then. I am only a sophomore right now. But I mean, I've always wanted to live in New York, but I do think that LA has become a lot more prominent for me. Those are definitely the same too.
Starting point is 00:32:44 It just kind of depends on whether I want to do more MT-focused work or if I finally like full send it onto film, but just a little bit of both. But the singing aspect certainly plays in, right? That is a big part of my life. I've been taking vocal lessons since I was 10, and that's like a big part of who I am. So I don't think that I could give it up ever fully. The repertoire is important. It's a real thing.
Starting point is 00:33:06 What's the North Star? Well, I'm hoping to do more stuff at the Lincoln Community Playhouse. They have a lot of great shows this season and next. Hickman also has a great community. theater, so I'm hoping to do more work there, too. It's going to be interesting. You have an interesting, we're going to, I'm going to invite you all back to have different conversations because I think it's important over the course of what we do here is telling the story of Lincoln and the student experience and after.
Starting point is 00:33:36 And it's a big part of it. What's the North Star look like for you in the dream world? I will probably end up in L.A. I am very big into film. That's what I want to do. I want to be on camera and that's kind of the biggest market right now. But the industry is ever changing. There's many places growing. Dallas, if I end up back in Texas, is becoming a big film hub. Atlanta, Georgia is becoming a big film hub. Chicago, New York, L.A. I think it's definitely in this next year that I have before I graduate. I think I really want to go and see these places first and see which one that I really click with a little bit and I think that's just something that I have to reflect on for a little bit so I'm not 100% sure yet but probably probably L.A. I'll shout out that Fortis
Starting point is 00:34:25 Films is in both is in Atlanta, Austin, and Los Angeles. It's in all three spaces and it's multi-tiered in what it makes and what in a lot of room for writers and creators but that's in the space. So let's go through and have everybody give a little bit of folks who are looking for a reason to come and watch this and experience it, what they should do. What can they expect? When you come see the wolves, I think you should expect to relive some of your really uncomfortable and embarrassing and exciting stories from your childhood. This show, it follows a high school soccer team, and there are a lot of topics that are
Starting point is 00:35:10 covered that are sensitive and um and just relatable to really everyone and there's a beautiful quote in the beginning of the script actually and um it goes something like um inside we're all the same age and so so yeah so i would i would just say be ready to have an open heart and to um yeah be ready to have an open heart yeah i don't know to relive a big like i think for us even the characters are only a couple years younger than most of us are. So it feels very close to home, but also kind of far away in a certain way. But there's something so beautiful about reliving that part of your childhood and that part of adolescence. And it's raw, it's vulnerable, it's vulgar. Like it takes you through every single stage. And it's just so beautiful. And I think
Starting point is 00:36:03 that there is relatability in it. And I hope that every single audience member will find something in it that they relate to. And I play the only adult character in the play. And I come in at the last scene and really just shift the vibe after you're living in this world with these young women. And I definitely people can relate to when you're a teenager, you are trying to find yourself and figure out who you are. But that doesn't stop. When you're an adult, things still shift beneath your feet. And you need to figure out who you are amongst that.
Starting point is 00:36:40 Harrison will vouch. Let the folks know where to find information and how to get tickets and what show should they show up. Brasca repertorytheater.com. There'll be a big bright button that says get tickets underneath the walls. That is where you want to be. It is very easy to navigate. It's laid out by show. It tells you what time, what date, and if tickets are still available.
Starting point is 00:37:08 family friend dear or no? I'd say more on the PG-13 level. Definitely don't bring your children. The girls in the player are 16. So conversations that you would hear from like 16-year-old girls. So high school young ladies, moms would be a great conversation. Some pot and mouths. Yes.
Starting point is 00:37:29 I think they're also Husker fans. So they've probably experienced. Yeah. For sure. Ladies, once again, let the folks know who you are and how to find you otherwise. My name is Hattie Chavanaugh. I'm a senior. I play 25 and come see the show.
Starting point is 00:37:46 My name's Brooke DeZarmo. I'm a sophomore and I play number 13. Come see the show, please. My name's Jill Premack and I play soccer mom and I'd love to see you there. My name is Jordan Gabrielson. I'm a junior and I play number 14. We would love to see everyone there and I promise you'll have a blast. Harrison, if you would, give the website and take us out of here.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Yeah, absolutely good. You guys check them out, Nebraska rep.org. And as Brooke pointed out, it has gets the tickets right there for it. It's got the showtimes for the wolves as well and really easy to find on there. With that being said, this is one-on-one with D.P. Harrison. We'll join you guys on the other side for one final segment, 93-7, the ticket. Back to one-on-one with D.P. Sponsored by the Downtown Lincoln Foundation on 93-7, the ticket.
Starting point is 00:38:36 It's the wolves. And I think some folks who are looking for things to do, that would fall perfectly in line. Don't you think? Yeah, I mean, you got time. This is a show tonight, 7.30. Right? Yeah, today's the 6th. So 730, they're all 730 times except for the last show.
Starting point is 00:38:55 So you got tonight, you got Wednesday, tomorrow, you got Thursday this week, you got Friday this week. And if you can't catch that one, you got an opportunity on Sunday, 2 p.m. You still got show tickets available. I think it'll be good. And those are the kind of conversations that explaining the Husker student experience, not all of them are the same. And the dreams and to have these wonderful facilities and resources to go through it, again, being pioneers, they're out front.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Those sort of degrees aren't available everywhere. So if you know what you want and then the university figures out, yes, this is what we want, this is what we need. It's wonderful to know. it's wonderful to know that Nebraska is doing it. They're ahead of their games, man. They're ahead of the game. I mean,
Starting point is 00:39:40 it's cool to really see that stuff. I mean, because the way they were talking, like it is cool. I mean, I went Brooke who she was talking about Austin. Well, they don't offer certain things X,
Starting point is 00:39:47 Y, and Z. So it is unique to hear it's like, okay, so you came to Nebraska, then actually he's able to serve all those purposes. Through all the things we talk about, the Nebraska,
Starting point is 00:39:56 when it, when it does, when it wants, it's a pioneer. Yeah, when it wants. all that in play. Who's up next, Harrison,
Starting point is 00:40:07 all right? We got Ridge Levin, take down Tuesdays coming up next. I heard it's going to be two hours of the wrestlers joining us. And that's great timing because those guys would be facing Wyoming before you know it.
Starting point is 00:40:17 And that's a good looking roster. We'll see how it turns out once the season actually starts there. But don't go anywhere. Takeaway weeknight's up next. Kicking things off. But take down Tuesdays, Ridge, love it.
Starting point is 00:40:27 Don't go anywhere. 937 the ticket.
