Well, hello, ladies and gentlemen and all of our friends at home. We are back for another special Q&A episode. Thank you all so much for sending in your questions. These are so fun to open. Yeah. I mean, honestly, it feels like getting past notes in class. Remember we would have to, what was that little thing that you would fold and then, you know, flip back and forth? Yeah, the little square thingy.

You had to answer all the questions. Passing notes. Yeah. You'd depict your house, your house, your pet. Oh, MASH. Yep. MASH. That's what it was.

MASH. God, that was fun. I like these questions. It's kind of like... It feels like that. Yeah, it's like we're playing mash with all you guys. You guys, I actually really love this question because we talked about this today. Loma asks, as you've rewatched, as you've reached season three in your rewatch,

have you guys started to skip the opening credits or do you still watch and sing along each time? I don't watch the opening credits of any show. y'all we skip we skip we skip we skip when we watched the first episode of season three we actually missed the skip intro button and we had to watch the intro we did sing a little but we did we I think for for posterity's sake we did yeah we made we made so lemonade okay hold on a second I do love our intro song but have you guys heard this thing on TikTok this girl singing our song but with different lyrics? No?

Oh my gosh. I'm going to have to play this. It is so immature and I fucking love it. And I've had people send it to me so many times. Hold on. I got to just bear with me for a moment. Saw this and thought it was pretty funny.

Okay, hold on. I got to make sure my phone volume is up now. God, I can feel like a grandma. Okay. I don't want to be crying and pukeen and pissing and bad it and shit. I don't want to be crying and puke and pissing and bad it and shit. I can't hear what they're saying. She's saying I don't want to be crying and puking and pissing and shit.

And I lost it. Okay. I'm sending this to you right now. It's great. To the both of you right now. But I just love that people know. they know they're like Hillary's going to love this

so now whenever I hear a theme song this is what I think of that's what you think of I love that okay fine from Michaela if you could choose one character from One Tree Hill to do a spinoff who would it be and why a spin

there's a lot of god we had so many great characters who would have had a fun spin off I have my answer oh go tell me Prequel, Ellie Harp, Mick Wolf, on tour. Yes. Sexy time, mid-80s. Yep, that's it, done.

There's just no other answer. That's it. Yep. That's what I want to see. That would be so fun, actually. I love prequels. And also, like, a great era, like them, like, out on the road, playing music, being sexy, she gets pregnant. He's a...

Yeah. He's just... just a degenerate and he doesn't help her and she's like, I'm on drugs, you know, it's moody, man. I would love it. I'd love to see all the parents in that era. Kevin Kielner. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. All right.

Okay. Yeah, I would also just love a good 80s drama. I want more of that. Like that episode of Black Mirror, San Juan Apparo, which was like 80s but also futuristic and time jumpy and crazy. I want a whole series of that. Yeah. That was a really good episode. It's really good.

We have a question from Jess. Jess wants to know what cast members had the best dinners after work and what were their go-to dishes. We weren't old enough to cook yet. No. We could order. Yeah, I don't know that we were a dinner party age, but we, I mean, we haunted Deluxe and Circa. Those two places, man, the Beef Wellington at Circa, I was obsessed with. I would get the fillet with crab.

That was, remember they would like, that was so fancy. They put crab on it. It probably came out of a jar. No, I'm sure it didn't. Deluxe had a good steak. They had a good fish. I loved going there. That was what we did, though.

We didn't really like throw. I mean, I would attempt to cook sometimes. Girl, we worked 18 hours a day. Yeah, that was tough. It wasn't, we didn't, that's kind of the last thing you want to do after you work a long day is go home and cook something. As much as I would love to be Audrey Hepburn who makes, you know, 50 pounds of spaghetti for an entire crew full of people. I just, I was exhausted. I couldn't do it. You know what I would do. When I lived above firebelly, when we first started Joy, I would just stock my fridge with liquor.

And I was not a drinker, so I didn't know like what you're supposed to drink at different hours. And so I was drinking Bloody Mary's at like 11 o'clock at night and like, who wants a Bloody Mary? So cute. And everyone was like, a Bloody Mary is like a meal, sort of. Bloody Mary is like an air, that is just an airplane airport drink. I don't know what else you use that for. I love them. On a brunch day, I guess.

Yeah, I can drink them at 11 o'clock at night. No, I feel like Sophia threw a couple parties that were great and she always had like charcutory. Like soup's real good at like Oh yeah cheese plate Putting a board together Yeah that takes time and talent You got to learn how to find the right things And yeah she's definitely one of those people

Knows how to just whip it right out Got to mix the colors up All that kind of stuff You know what I love is that quince paste I discovered that in Wilmington It's a little You'll see it in cheese shops It comes in a usually in a square jar

Or square thing And it's like a pink It looks like pink gelatin, but it's quince jam, basically, but it's thicker than jam. It's between a gelatin and a jam, but it's not like jello. It's harder. I don't know. It's quince paste, but it's made out of quince paste. And it's yummy on crackers and cheese.

You know what we had in Wilmington that was a first-time experience that I loved is that our crew members would have oyster roasts. And I had never been to one of those. and I always felt like a big dummy because I was like, I don't know what to do. But they would have like big fire pits with a big grate, and they would put all the oysters on there, and then they, you know, pop open when they're ready to go. That was cool. That was a cool cultural thing to get into.

So fun. There's so many things about living in the South that I just adored. Okay. Let's see. What was the best lesson? Were we about to ask the same question? Yeah. You and I are both drawn to the same question.

They asked, what was the best lesson you learned from your experience on the set of One Tree Hill? Oh, so many things. Oh, my gosh. I think a lot, I mean, a lot of the lessons that we learned were just set behavior and, you know, hanging up your wardrobe when you're done at the end of the day in your trailer so they don't have to follow you around and look for your socks and, you know, where'd she throw the shirt and we're, and, you know, being on, being there on time, being. you know how to behave even the little things like don't um stand behind the camera don't if you if you are behind the camera don't move around don't watch the person who's performing there's so many technical things that are such an it's an invaluable lesson to be able to be on a show for that long and learn all these little things so that when you move on to other jobs um they know that you're a pro

they know you can just pick right up where everybody else is yeah it's a metaphor all that stuff that you said, Joy, is a metaphor for understanding that there's always someone there earlier than you and there's always someone there later than you. And if you move through the world understanding that other people are working harder than you, it makes you respect everyone around you, regardless of like what profession you work in. Absolutely. Yeah. I think it really boils down to courtesy and respect and professionalism set a bar. You know, one of the things I love about all of us is the best of our experiences on this show taught us to be good producers and good team players. And we set a standard of excellence. And that is meant to, you know,

motivate and challenge us and those around us. It lets everybody know they're going to be respected in a space. And I love that. Like I want to set a high bar and then I want to learn stuff I don't know every day when I strive to hit it. Yeah. Showing up curious and humble, I think, is a really big deal as a professional in this industry. Yeah, agree. What a question. native culture is very alive. My name is Nicole Garcia, and on Burn Sage, Burn Bridges, we aim to explore that culture. It was a huge honor to become a television writer because it does feel oddly, like, very traditional. It feels like Bob Dylan going electric, that this is something we've been doing for hundreds of years. You carry with you a sense of purpose and

confidence. That's Sierra Teller Ornelis, who with Rutherford Falls became the first native showrunner in television history. On the podcast, Burn Sage, Burn Bridges, we explore her story, along with other Native stories, such as the creation of the first Native Comic-Con or the importance of reservation basketball. Every day, Native people are striving to keep traditions alive while navigating the modern world, influencing and bringing our culture into the mainstream. Listen to Burn Sage, Burn Bridges, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Caitlin asks, do you have any outfits from the show that you kept? Do what? I've, yeah, I've got some shirts. Oh, you know what I have? What are you got? Do you know what I sleep in? That, remember when we went to Honeygrove and we were on the bus? There's a long sleeve t-shirt.

What the hell is the band? Is it like a lead Zeppelin shirt or something? I don't know. I sleep in it like once a week. Really? I forget that it was on the show. But it's got like holes and shit in it now. But, yeah, it was really, it was like super soft.

I wanted it. Oh, I love that. I kept a lot of stuff, but not like, I don't know if I still have any. Oh, I do. You do, yeah. Sophia has a whole closet. She's a storage unit somewhere. I've got two bins.

I have two bins. Yeah, I've got two bins of one tree hill stuff in the valley. I have my cute little vintage piet dress, also from Honey Grove. I have. Oh, you kept that? I don't remember. Oh, yeah. I took stuff like at the very end.

Cool. I've got like when Brooke had that crazy storyline, I guess it would have been like season six with creepy Xavier. Yeah, when you got beat up, I know, dude. Yeah, I was wearing this like cool sort of metallic striped sweater in the parking garage. But because I had to get thrown on the ground so many times, they bought a bunch of them. So I have like three of them because I think I intended on like doing a giveaway at one of our first convention. but then I couldn't come because I was stuck in Chicago, so I just, like, have these sweaters I've never given anyone.

It's funny. And I have Brooks, like, photo album that she goes through on her birthday. I have just, like, a bunch of little cute things. I have the white shirt that I wore in the last episode on the beach. You know, that great outfit of Haley on the best outfit ever? Yeah, the best outfit ever. I wish you had that whole outfit. I know.

But that white shirt was. actually mine and I remember bringing it in. No way. Because I did a fitting and nothing that they had. I just didn't like any of it. And I was like, I was trying to explain what I wanted and I think they had brought in a bunch of like white tanks, but they were kind of that thick ribbed material. And I was like, hang on a second. Either it was in my car or I went home and got it or something, but I brought that in and we were like, I was like, let's just throw a bra under this and do this. And so we kind of put it all together. But I mean, that was my personal. Best outfit. ever. I love this. You were the one that was like, this is how we're going to orchestrate

this. I love that. Jenny wants to know, out of all the Tree Hill parents, who offered the best advice. Everybody gave great advice, honestly. Yeah. I mean, Moira, for me, I've already talked about how she was like, run when she got really bad for me. That's right. And I liked that she was giving advice to me not to it wasn't Karen giving advice to Peyton Sawyer it was like hey I care about you I don't care about the job like yeah you know we were lucky that we had those people Paul was that way too Paul was always looking out for us always you know looking to help out and I do love that about him that he's you know he's he's rough around the edges and that's kind of part of the charm to is that he just will say what he's thinking he'll say it and sometimes it you know it's a little

like oh god your bedside manner could use a little you know that's that was like ow but it doesn't make it untrue it just you know and and you know you got to earn a tougher skin sometimes but i could always count on him to say the truth of what the situation was and um and there are many times when he knows exactly how to catch things and you know wait and kind of pull you aside or whatever um so that was really great barbara was also a wonderful person to talk to i mean barbara was there when i had to put my cat down i called her because i didn't have a mom presence there in wilmington at all and yeah so she was i was like i called her and she came over and sat with me when the vet came over and she was always somebody that i could just go and just snuggle with and i don't know i just felt

Like, she was looking out for all of us big time. You know, Barbara is one of the first people that knew I was pregnant. She is. With Gus. Because when she was pregnant with Olivia, she had to go get her amnio done. And she asked me to drive her and to go with her to that appointment. And so I felt so honored. I was like, oh, my God.

Like, okay, yeah. And that was in my last season on the show. And so I went with her to this baby doctor. And I knew it was like super high. high-tech and, like, fancy, but I didn't know anything else outside of that. It was just like, Barbara's going to the best doctor in Wilmington. So when I got pregnant, I sent her an email, and I was like, hey, remember that doctor that we went to when you were having a baby?

Like, if I had a friend who was having a baby, what was that doctor's name? And she's like, well, you can tell your friend that was, you know, and they gave me the information and was so cool and kind of coy about it. You're right. Like, Barb, to me, Barb was always more like big sister energy than parent energy. Majorly. Yeah, she was a cool girl. Yeah, she's got a lot on her plate all the time, but she's one of those people that I could,

I feel like I could always call her no matter what. If I haven't talked to her in two, three years, I could still just pick up the phone and be like, Babs, I need you, and she's right there. Do you remember when we announced to the cast that we were doing this podcast, and she was the first person that wrote back and was like, Hooray! I can't wait! Flooded our text box, our Instagrams, everything. I'm so, so excited for you, girls.

Way to go. So proud of you. Yeah. I'm going to call her right now. I love her. Thank you, Jenny, for reminding me how much I love Barbara Allen Woods. Clara wants to know what's the shooting locations. If the shooting locations are real locations are on the stage.

I mean, so many. Oh, yeah. Like Peyton's Room, Haley and Nathan's apartment, Karen's Cafe. Well, it's a good question. So Karen's Cafe is a real location. It is a storefront on the corner of Front and Grace streets in Wilmington. And, I mean, God, we rented that for nine years. We just, I guess we leased it.

Wild. How crazy. Yeah. But then Peyton's room and Haley and Nathan's apartment, we built those on stages. But Peyton's room was tied into a very real house. Yes. Peyton's house and Haley's house, the exteriors are right across the street from. from each other.

And everything in Peyton's house had to match what was on the stage. So like the stairs had to be the same. The hallway had to be the same. Yeah. Especially when we got into later seasons where I was like, you know, where we were fighting psychoderic. Yeah. You had to be able to go from doing a scene in the house to three days later

shooting the same exact sequence, but the second half. half of it on the stage, on the bedroom, which could get super confusing. But what I will say is that the guy who lives in Peyton's house, we just watched an episode where Peyton is like screaming at her dad and they're like flying out of the back the back door. They had just had a baby. And we like this baby needed to nap. And we're like slamming doors and stuff.

And I'm so apologetic. And his in-laws were over. So every time I would have to be like, God, Dad. you're like the worst and slam the doors and run in the house. His whole family was sitting in the kitchen because they were all there to see the new baby. Oh my God. And I'd have to be like, hi guys, hi guys. So the duality of like playing house with people and screaming.

That's the best part about shooting on a real location. It's real life. Yeah. Yeah. It feels real. It actually helps. I love the feeling of being in a real space because it helps me connect because it's real. You know, a set is always going to feel like a set.

And you can find your way into the reality of the moment, but it does help to have a very actual real space around you. For me, it does. Yeah, me too. It really helps you suspend your disbelief. Yeah. Thank you guys so much for sending these in. Keep them coming because I like doing these.

Yeah, what a blast. Bye, guys. Yeah. Hey, thanks for listening. Don't forget to leave us a review. You can also follow us on Instagram at Drama Queen's O-T-8. Or email us at Dramaqueans at iHeartRadio.com. See you next time.
