It's my point of you. You're listening to Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum. Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum was not recorded in front of a live studio audience. You know, people that come on the podcast, they think the room is a lot smaller than it looks on TV. Oh, yeah? Or on the screen than the computers. Oh, that's funny. It's a small room, but it's quaint.

It's intimate enough. I love it. You love it? Yeah, there's a lot to look at. It's very interesting. I'm sitting across from Lex Luther. And I'm sitting across from the new lowest Lana Lang. It's Lana Lang.

It's Lano Lang. Wow. That's pretty cool, huh? That's very cool. You look fantastic. Oh, you're so sweet. I couldn't believe it because, you know, your age is on, you know, online. Like, of course, mine is.

I'm 50. But when I saw your age, I go, oh, my God. Whoa, that's crazy. What? You're 50? Oh, yeah. I'm 50. Don't, don't.

No, no. Because you honestly, I'm really, but look at her. For real? Yeah, yeah. You have great genetics, right? Do your parents like, young? Um, not, not, no. Uh, I mean.

It's hard to maybe. It's hard to say. I mean, my dad's 70. My mom's 75. I mean, they're starting to like, you know, I mean, I guess I have some good genes. I mean, you have good genes. You have good genes. You have that Moroccan Jew jean.

Well, yeah. I mean, seriously, like you, like, you really, like, you could easily be 30. Thank you. Right? 28. Nah, come on. Hey, stash, mustache, what do you think over there? No, I agree.

We all look young for our ages. I'm so surprised seeing you in person how, like, you know, because you see the photos. I'm like, oh, of course, every photo looks great. And then you see you in person, but you still, you look very young. Oh, I think. That's really lovely. Things. It cracks me up because, you know, on the show, my daughter in real life is 21.

And though. Superman and Lois. Yeah. Right. Though that's totally feasible, it still trips me up. I'm like, we'll be talking about something. And she's like, oh, my mom always says the same. thing and I'm like right you're playing a mom of two does it feel weird did you think do you think

while you're acting you're like no one's going to buy this did you feel that in the beginning in the beginning 100% I did in the beginning I was like seriously guys I'm a mom this is the first time I was playing because I played a mom of like a baby but never of like a teenage daughter I was like guys this is ridiculous but then when you watch our show um Dylan Walsh is the grandfather which is also comical. And how old is he? I mean, he's what? Like his late 50s?

He looks amazing. Wow. And I'm like, what's gay, hot grandpola? What do you do to look good? Like, what do you? I mean, I know you, I see your Instagrams and you're, uh, your, uh, exercising in your Instagram. My Pilates.

You're doing Pilates. Just, uh, for someone who has, deals with a lot of pain and stuff, I, you know, a lot of surgeries, put ice hockey growing up, a lot of sports. Oh, yeah. Does Pilates is really something that can. can help? Does it help you? What does it do? What does it do for you? What does it do? Yo, it changed my life. I mean, I also have loads of injuries. I would say... From what? Do you know, I don't know if it's a combination of also just genetics. Like, I have loosey-goosey

tendons. Like, I have a torn labrum in my hip. I've dislocated both my shoulders total five times. Like, I feel really like I'm tough, but I'm fragile. Do you know what I mean? Like, and... I'm tough, but I'm fragile. I know, but I'm chicken shit. Baby! Sorry. Sometimes I just have to do that. Sorry, folks.

That was perfect. That was perfect. I've been so accurate. So anyway, long story short, it changed my life. Like, I had a lot of injuries. I was in chronic pain. And it made me really, really unhappy. And I've always been a very active person.

But Pilates really changed my life. I don't have, I had a really gnarly car accident and I was all jacked in here and I'm not anymore. So there is really something to the whole, you know, it helps elongate you and your spine and your core strength and it has saved me. Do you teach? No. You couldn't teach. No. But do you have a teacher? I do. She's the best of the best. How much is she an hour? Come on celebrity talk. No. She's, I mean. Is she like 150 an hour? No. Well, I don't know what her rate. I've been working with her for so many years so she doesn't charge me that but i think that's her right right if we're in a would you recommend her to me a million person where does she live she's here she's so close

she's on sunset really and it's her own studio let me tell you this she used to be an alvin aly dancer a what alvin aly what's an alvin aly you don't know that alvin aly dance company in new york no it's one of the google it when we live alvin ailey alvinelie it's an unbelievable dance company she would is a professional dancer for 20 plus years, she's incredible, and her knowledge of the body is other level. And she's cool. So you don't have as much pain anymore? I have no pain anymore. Do you do your own stunts on Superman and Lois? I used to. I don't anymore. Isn't that something you get older and you decide? Because the last time, when I dislocated it, which was a few months ago. On Superman and Lois. You dislocated your shoulder. Again. Superman and Lois, what were you

doing when you're on wires? No. It was freezing cold. We were in Vancouver. I'm doing this dope fight sequence with Superman. Right. And it was freezing. I wasn't warm enough. I'd been training for weeks. I blocked a punch. He kind of blocked it hard.

And it just went like... You felt it? Immense pain. I had to go to an emergency. That day on the set, you had to go to the emergency room. Yeah. Because they wouldn't put it back in. Did they try to put it back in?

No. Because, you know, if a nerve gets... gets caught. Were you crying? I was bawling my, wait, oh, this is the best story ever. Have you told this story? I don't think so. All right.

We'll move the mic up so I could hear you a little. It was out of socket for two hours because we're in the middle of, you shot in Vancouver, right? Smallville was in Vancouver? Okay. So we're in Delta, a farm in Delta. Bum fuck. In, yes. Sorry for that.

And it would take more time for the ambulance to get there than for them to drive. me to the hospital. So I'm going across like bumpy farm terrain, completely out of socket, like can barely breathe. Every step is like excruciating. I'm in my super suit and I get to the hospital. Super suit. Yeah, because it was the alternate universe. Oh, Bizarro. Lois Roe. At Lana Roe. Lana Roe. God, did it again. Lana Roe. Go ahead. Go ahead. So go ahead. You're in your suit. So we have in my suit. They didn't even take you out of your suit. They couldn't. Like, Are you kidding? I couldn't move. So I get to emergency and I'm like, I'm hysterical at this point.

I'm begging them for drugs. The doctor comes. I'm like, please just put it back and sock it. And they give me some morphine. They gave me like a relaxant. They had to cut the costume. The costumer was with me. They had to cut the costume off.

And the nurse, you know, she sees it. I've been this like full on super suit. And I'm like so high at this point. She's like, so who are you fighting, dear? and I was looking at her and I was like, Superman. Oh, effed up on drugs, morphine at this time.

And she says who you fight. And you're just, you just look at it and say Superman. She was like, okay. Oh, my gosh. I mean, the whole thing was so awful. Anyways, that's the long-winded answer. So no, I do not do my stunts anymore. That's it.

I'm done. I have this most amazing stunt double. Let her do what she does. How long before you were fixed again? Did they put it in socket, back in the socket right while you were drugged up? Yeah. And you didn't feel it. No, it was instant relief.

And then I was back at work the next day. Are you serious? I'm not doing sense. Did you stay the night in the hospital? No, it was out. Like as soon as I popped it back in, did all the paperwork, I was out. Did Tyler, who plays Superman, was he just like, oh, I'm so sorry? No, he was like, I mean, he had nothing to apologize for, but he just knew he.

he when it happened he was like oh fuck and he just knew and he was like being very protective because you know what's the what's is there anything worse than getting hurt on set nothing i think there is something worse getting hurt during sex that i've done that one like my knee my knee hang on hang on oh god oh god that's what happens when you're 50 i'm not kidding i've had i've had injuries well i'm just like oh god oh god i can't i can my back I just threw my back out. That's the funniest thing I've ever heard. Yeah.

Brian, have you ever been injured during sex? Not like that, no. I have. I don't even like hardcore or anything. Slow down, Tiger. Maybe take it easier. I don't think I was going that fast.

It was just like, I don't know what happened. It was embarrassing, though. That's hysterical. Yeah, you've got to be someone that really like, you know. Okay, maybe that wins. Maybe, okay, that talks it. That would win. But, you know, I mean, having like 300 people be like, are you okay?

It's just like, oh, God, please, I'm good. I don't want to make a big deal about this. I just want it back in. But you were just like, you were in so much pain. You were crying on set. You were like, I don't care what anybody thinks. I am a mess. Oh, I'm a mess.

And you want to... Whoa. My Lex Luther had just fell off the shelf. Oh, that's so creepy. Creepy. That's a weird guy. Do you want to hear something really wild though? No, I want me hear it.

And our, R-A-D, you know, I changed every other episode. I'd worked with him at the beginning of my career on a film called Wrong Turn in Toronto. Who was that with? Wrong turn? Yeah. It was with Jeremy Sisto and Desmond Harrington.

Oh, nice. Eliza Dushchev. Yeah. And so on this movie, I dislocated my shoulder in a stunt. And Bob was the AD. I know Bob. Bob. What's his last name?

No one never knows the last names. Bob, he's kind of like a middle-aged guy. He's probably my age. He's the best, right? He's really calm and mellow. Yes. He was on Smallville. Bob.

Oh, I think so. I think he was, yeah. I love Bob. I'm terrible on names in general. I'm horrible with him. But Bob's the best. And Bob. Crippin?

Yes. Is Bob Crippin? Yes. Is it Bob Crippin? That is. Holy shit. Bob. What up, Bob.

Bob is the best. Tom, I said hi. And so I absolutely will. And so Bob, he's the AD on this episode, and he comes up to me. He's like, not again. And I was like, and I look at him, I go, oh, you were there the first time. It happened with him the first time.

Yes, because he was the AD on wrong turn. Years before. Like, almost 20. And now he sees you do it again. And so he's like, and I look at him and I'm just like, I'm out of sorts and I'm like, maybe it's because you're here. Yeah. You dick.

Maybe you made a wrong turn. Inside of you is brought to you by Quince. I love Quince, Ryan. I've told you this before. I got this awesome $60 cashmere sweater. I wear it religiously. You can get all sorts of amazing, amazing clothing for such reasonable prices. Look, cooler temps are rolling in.

You know, I've talked to other actors about this. When you don't audition, it feels like, oh, look at me. I got an offer only. But here's the problem. You never know if, like, they know what they're getting. They're like, okay, this is what we want. And you go on set and you start doing it. And they're like, oh, no, no, no, we want something.

Yeah, that's not what we wanted. You know, that could be a little scary when you're not sure. If you audition, like, oh, that's what they want. Good. I got it. I know what I'm doing now. Absolutely. No questions asked.

No. Absolutely. Were you nervous first day? Yes. Terrified. Really? Oh, my God. But also, too, you know, I also, the whole thing was so strange to me.

Like, you know, to your point is that I didn't audition for this. This came along. And, you know, I was thinking about this in the car on the way of. I thought if this is going to come up or not. And I was like, I should start saying, I'll never, blah, blah, blah for the things that I really wanted to. Because I literally was like, I don't, I've never, I've, I don't think I've ever read a comic book. I've never watched, I don't watch superhero things. I don't, like I know.

It's crazy. It's a little bit outrageous, right? And so, when this came along and my, you know, my team called me, like, I started laughing. Like, I was like, gosh, that's hilarious. Okay. Like, as if. And they're like, no, no, no, really. Like, they, you know, the creator of the show would love to have a meeting with you.

And I was like, kind of fucked up over it. Like, I was like, what? How? I don't even understand. Like, I've never. ever worked on the CW before. So what would make them have interest in it? So 100%.

And like, why me? Like, I just, nothing made sense. I sat with Todd Halbing. Best decision I ever made in my life. And, yeah, the rest is history. But the funny part was that the last time I said, it's not like I'd ever do blah, blah, blah, was what I said about working with Adam Sandler.

Like, I literally was like, It's not like I'd ever do an Adam Sandler movie, and then I didn't Adam's out. So maybe I should start doing that now. Now, you audition for Sandler's movie, right? I did. 100%. How many times?

Twice. With Adam the second time? Never with Adam. Never with Adam. Was Adam in the room? Nope. He wasn't even in the room. No.

I met Adam. Are you his love interest? Yeah. It was a really weird situation because originally Selma Hyatt. was cast and then she got pregnant so she had to fall out and I um at the time randomly had a general with Heather Perry I know Heather you know Heather yeah Sony yeah she's not there anymore is she I don't know sure actually she ran Sandler's company happy Madison yes so I had a you know I had a great meeting with her and in the meeting she was like come with me

And we're like in the golf cart And she's like, introduces me to Adam Sandler He's playing basketball How you doing? Good to see you. All right. It's so good. That's exactly what he sounds like.

You look like Lopez. That's so good. And then I met Dennis Dugan, the director. Yeah. And then Dennis, like, this is all happening. And Dennis is like, yeah, great. Yeah, you're perfect. I would love for you to read.

And then he's like, so when can you? audition. Like the whole thing was so weird. And what did you say? I was like, things are so hilarious. I was like, well, I'm doing a movie in Vancouver. Like, I'm actually flying to go finish a movie in Vancouver. So like when I rap maybe in like 10 days, I can come back and audition. And he was like, okay, great. So I audition. And I have to work on this accent. It's not like, you know, like I wasn't going to half ass this. What accent? It wasn't a Palestinian. That's not easy.

I know. So then I audition. It went really well. Apparently, I guess the tapes were seen. But I know that there was a little behind the scenes. Like I had heard later on that before they actually offered the part to me, Adam had sort of called around to be like, tell me about Shrieky. Like, we're thinking about her for this.

Is this a good thing? Is this a bad thing? Really? So they want to know if you were easy to work with. Easy to work with. Would I be able to hold my own opposite him? She know her lines. It's a big deal, right?

Because Sandler is Sandler. And all his co-stars have always been, you know, you know, amazing. Was he like on set? Was he like, oh, do it again. But like, say the line like this and then turn your head. Like always throwing shit at you? He was definitely, you know, him and Dugan, directed, even though Dennis Dugan was the director.

Adam obviously was very involved. But he was just so fun. He created such a relaxed atmosphere. And it just felt like super organic. So even if there was like something that we were working out, it just felt it was like fun. It never felt like there was this enormous pressure. It was playful. Yeah.

He's a wonderful guy. He's a wonderful human. I love that guy. He's been so kind to me. Oh, I love that. I mean, working with Sandler, it had to be like just like, you're sitting there and say action, you're like looking at Adam Sandler. It's just like legendary comedian.

Legendary. Guy we all grew up watching. Legendary. And now you're working with him. It's got to be kind of like shell shocked. Like, oh, my, you had to get that out of your system. How do you get it out of your system? I don't think you do.

I am an actor. I'm acting now. your shit and forget about Adam Sandler. Well, I mean, I think that I don't know that you honestly do because every day of that movie I just remember being like wow, I can't believe this.

And then, and then imagine that I'm on the set and there's a night where it's Adam Sandler, John Totoro, Kevin Neillan, Rob Schneider, and myself doing a scene and I was like

okay for real what the fuck is going on right now did you say that like to anybody who would listen like I was like this is so surreal

and like John Totoro oh he's amazing I mean he's so amazing and again like one of the nicest humans I remember he was he would get such a kick out of it because I don't know if you know this

but he was very good friends with Madonna like back Titouro was Yeah. Back in the day in New York. And somehow or other we got talking and I was telling him of like my obsession with Madonna when I was a kid. So literally we would be sitting on me like, okay, so tell me some more stories. Really? Give me some more like Madonna tidbits. Just like fun stuff, not, you know. But it was really cute. And he got such like a kick out of it. Like he loved how much I loved her. I know a great story where John Duteron and John Goodman were working together. on a Cohn Brothers movie.

Yeah, Big Lubowski. No, it was a different one. It was like not Miller's Crossing or not. It was something with those two. And they were wrestling in the scene and Titoro or a Goodman didn't know his lines or supposedly or something. And they were wrestling around. And finally, Titori goes, come on, Goodman, fuck learn your line. He goes, fuck you, Titoro.

More people see me in one week on TV than they see you in your career. I think they just were laying it on each other. Oh, my God. Oh, yeah, I just remember somebody telling me that story. I wonder if it's true. I'm sure there's some truth to it. But did Sandler give you his phone number and say, yeah, keep in touch, whatever, after? No.

Did you want his number? I wish that we could have been, like, friends, do you know? But I don't think he needs more friends. You know, and I love his wife, Jackie, so much. And we had such an exceptional time on this film. like really exceptional. Yeah. But, you know, like, it's definitely one of those, like,

where if I ever saw him somewhere, it would make my year. He would remember you, wouldn't they? Oh, a thousand. I mean, you worked with him for months. Yes. Oh, no, no, no. I always feel like no one will remember me, no matter what.

What is that? Hey, hey, we did a movie. I know, do we did a movie together. I know. I feel like I just, like, I don't know what it is, but I feel like they're not going to remember me. But, but, like, is that? think that that's because that some like some part of you just doesn't feel like enough of course yeah

i've always felt like that you know there was a speech that someone gave at a wedding recently i won't say the wedding but the speech floored me it was so emotional that this person said i love people i love i love my mother i love this i love that and logically i know that people love me logically Like, I know that this person loves me, but I've never felt it. I've never felt that feeling that someone really loves me. I know it logically, but I don't feel it. It broke me down. It broke me down.

Was it that, but was the thing that he'd never felt it until now with this person? Until now with this woman. Right. That's beautiful. It was beautiful, man. Wow. It was beautiful. There was a lot of, yeah.

It was a lot of emotions at this wedding. I just kind of sat there with all these couples around me and going, I'll find someone, I'll find someone. It will happen one day. You'll be at a wedding. You will. You'll get married. Hey, when you were young, when you were growing up, when you were born in Montreal,

but you moved when you were two years old to Toronto, were you, when, first of all, did you have a pretty good childhood? You did, were your parents always there for you? They were, were they always like, I'll love you, do whatever, you're talented, you're smart, that they always kind of... Yeah, they were very, very supportive. Isn't that amazing? When I hear that, I'm so amazed by it. Yeah. I mean, listen, there was a whole shit ton of problems, but that was not one of them. We had, uh, yeah, it was a...

Who were the problems? Well, you know, I, my mom, it was, my, it was very sad. My mom was very sick. My growing up. So by the time I was 11, you know, she was diagnosed with colon cancer. And then, you know, she passed away like five years later. And, you know, so my whole sort of 11 to 16 was taking care of a dying woman. So it was a very like split identity, like sort of me at home and then, you know, me at school. and my dad and I together would take care of her and my brother and my sister were older

and they had tried to get married before she passed away so they got married like three months a month between the wedding just the mom would be their mom would see that so mom would see that so you know that just had a lot of its own sort of stuff and you know sadnesses and what have you

but my yes like my parents were so supportive and very they loved the arts they love the arts I you know I grew up in a French speaking household but so my still speak French let me hear it say I love this podcast it's amazing I adore some podcast they're incredible um so you know the radio was always on like you know radio Canada like always a French radio you know as a family we were always watching movies, the, you know, mom would always garden and have, like, you know, classical music blaring as she's like in her white caftan with all the windows open.

She was like a character out of a novel, my mom. Wow. So, and, you know, and my dad, when I was little, little, he would, like, take me to the, to the symphony. Like, so it was always, they just loved it. So I think. They were classy, it sounds like. My parents were really classy.

Yeah, see, my parents were not classy. Really? Oh, no. Tell what do you mean? Like, what do you mean? I mean, my parents were so classy, but let me just say, like, also, I'm painting this picture, but it was like super humble, super middle class, you know, immigrants that came with nothing and made something.

Daddy spoke seven languages because he was, he just had a knack for languages. Is he still with us? No. When did he pass? Nine years ago. Nine years ago. Yeah. Is it tough still to this day being without him, being without your mom?

Oh, yeah. Do you still think about them constantly? All day. A thousand percent. Especially my dad. My mom, I was so, so young, but my dad, oh, not a day goes by. Is it easy for you to tap into emotions when you're doing the scene? If you need to, do you automatically go to that?

Yeah. Awesome. Yeah. That will get you. What's the trigger? What do you think? of how much i miss him really because i i i desperately miss him were you closest to him out of all your siblings i think so yeah i'd hate to say that you know if you ever heard this

they'd be like well fuck you maybe we did we did we had a bond it was an undeniable bond that i think everybody knew um and also too you know we took care of my mom together it was me and him We were like this united front. And, you know, yeah, it's my dad and I. Yeah, it's amazing how things that happened to you as a child, things that just, you know, growing up, as an actor, you can tap into that if you do, it's magical. It's hard sometimes, but I definitely have a few things that I'd go-toes

that I could feel that I felt for different roles, and I just tap into it. Yeah. And people are like, where did that come from? I'm like, well, you don't want to kind of say. I know, you don't want to say. As, as, you know, tragic or triggering or whatever, they end up being gifts, right? Yeah.

Like that saying of life. They're with you. They're in the way, you know? They're with you. And also, too, that just that thing of, like, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Like, these things, like, if we all have a story, right? We all have a story. We all have shit.

But it becomes a gift when you can, like, tap into it and use it for your art. Yeah. Like, it really does. But wait. sorry I cut you off what do you mean when you say you your parents were not that wow you went back eight minutes well just find that they weren't I mean they weren't classless right I mean we were you know he's like rednecks like we were not even middle class when we lived in New York and then then in Connecticut living in a duplex and then got a kind of like a small house and we moved to

Indiana and we were working our way into middle class and then eventually my dad started doing really well by the time I was out of high school okay college or out of college but um you know i always it's so funny there's got to be some psychology to this but my mom if you went in the house she had to take off your shoes you have to see the vacuum lines and all the carpets yeah she was like a monster like that but if you opened up any closet the whole thing would collapse or you opened up any drawer it was packed with shit awful every drawer every cabinet And it pills, this. But on the outside, it was almost like looking at my parents.

On the outside, you're like, oh, these people are fun. They're, they seem together. They're, oh, you know. And then all of a sudden, on the inside, you don't realize what's really going on. So there was chaos behind that. Like hidden chaos. Hidden chaos. I never really talked about that, but the closets were just atrocious.

Wow. I mean, you opened it up. You could. I mean, it was packed like a hoarder. But like if you didn't open anything Or you didn't open the drawer The house looked immaculate Wow, that's so interesting

I gotta talk to my therapist about that What is that? That's so interesting I think my mom always wanted everyone To think she was normal That she was she had it all She had you know She had class and she was an intellect

And this And you know It was one of those Wizard of Oz You know you look behind the curtain It's like oh She was afraid of that I think we all have that. And there's also, I think so, you know, it's so interesting.

It's, it's so interesting. I, um, I had an oddly similar experience. So when my dad passed away, I kind of was very numb for probably like about a year. Like I actually couldn't shed a tear. It was wild. Did you go on any antidepressants or anything? I did. Well, I mean, not antidepressants, but I was.

Taking too many pills for sure. And I was very, very anxious. And, you know, just like all of the things, just trying to just, you know, constantly placate, just like, right? Just this. Just tempering anything because anything that I felt, this felt like too big. And so it was like, there's a year. And then maybe like five years after my dad passed away.

This is so wild. my cupboards, the way you're describing what your house was, that was like my house. And my best friend, Emily, she had encouraged me to do Marie Kondo, the life-changing magic of tidying up. Do you know that book? No. Oh, my God, it's so amazing. Is it one of those things where it says, if you haven't touched it, get rid of it? Yes. Yeah.

Does it spark joy? Yes or no. There's no maybes. Have you read that? No, it was a Netflix. show, right? It was a Netflix show. Sparks Joy. Yeah, Sparks Joy. But there's an actual book and they take you through because she anticipates like you, there's no, you know, people have such a deep emotional attachment where it comes to like pictures or cards, right? Or like whatever, whatever, whatever. Or like

instruction manuals for whatever. I know. You don't need them. There's tutorials on YouTube. That's what she said. She was like, throw them away. You Google the model number and boom, there it is. So there's like an answer for everything. So initially, M brings this up to me. And I have such a visceral reaction, which at first was like, no way could I do that. And then it became like this obsession, like, I have to do this. And I realized that, you know, when you open my cupboard, it's the same thing. Like, like stuff was crammed in there.

And I realized I hadn't touched anything since before my father died. And I understood that I was holding on to what was. And I like literally wasn't ready to let go. And it was this deep purge of an experience that kind of like no shit. It changed my life when I actually. actually did it it's organization it's it's almost like my doctor said my that one of my therapists a while ago I changed therapists I have changed therapists because sometimes you grow out of them like I need a different perspective but they said something where you you need to be

organized you need your office to be everything to where you could find things yeah you have to have that or if it's in chaos you will be in chaos yeah and it's true I can pretty much find everything for the most part. I have a system, but I do hold on to things I don't hoard. I definitely get rid of shit. And you look, there's a lot of stuff here, but I also have two podcasts. Yeah, but this is like, yeah, and also, too, this is your office. This is your office.

This is the podcast. Oh, I'm sorry, the podcast. It's a creative room. Yes, indeed. Do you feel, this is a weird question, but it's weird. But when you're younger, I'm not talking as a child, but when you're younger, I'm not talking as a child, But when you get older and you go, oh, my God, if someone so died, I couldn't handle it. I couldn't handle it.

No, no, no, no. You don't understand. I couldn't handle it. I couldn't handle it. Have you ever been through that? And then you realize when you get older, somehow you're able to survive it. Somehow you're like when your dad passed, was it unexpected? Mm-mm.

It wasn't unexpected. Mm-mm. So were you anticipating it and thinking, I can't get through this. I can't deal with this. I can't deal. This is not going to. Was it something anticipatory? Yes.

I was definitely. I was moving through my absolute worst fear, which is also oddly liberating after the fact. But I, like I was, like, you know, watching my father die was. Yeah. She just thought about it and you got emotional. Well, it's just, if you knew him, you would be like, why should somebody with that much light and goodness, like, suffer the way he,

did. It wasn't like, why did he die? Because we all die. It was like, why did he suffer like that? And then on my 40th birthday, I did ayahuasca and I got the answer. You just went from emotional to ayahuasca. That was pretty good. I've been thinking about it, but I'm scared shitless of ayahuasca. Yeah. Because I feel like I just, I'll freak out. But does, Does it really work? Oh, it was so... Do you have a shaman? Yeah.

I mean, I did a one-on-one. I didn't do it in a group. And this person sat with you and stayed with you? For like eight hours. Yeah, it was unbelievable. It was unbelievable. And like, it was unbelievable. That came up.

That whole thing came up. That specifically that thing came up about just like, why did he have to suffer so much and everything? And we, you know, talked about it at length. And then she had said to me and, like, this is true. And I think about this a lot. I was shown or my father taught me the, like, the definition of grace. Because, like, he.

He never complained. He was so grateful for the life that he lived. He was to the end, like still so playful and just full of love. And he was like spiritual. And he was deep. And he just never once ever. complained or uttered why me and I think it's really remarkable because the extreme pain that he was in was like other level shit like he had a growth on his sciatica which if you deal with sciatica you know

that's just like you know and he had a pump of medication that was like I guess it's like fentanyl. It's like 10 times more powerful than morphine that he would press like every few minutes to help with the pain. And it was only after that I realized like, holy fuck. Like I don't even know what planet he was on when he was sitting around with us. And we would, you know, get it like coax him like a little. little child like daddy how are you feeling you're like you know daddy must have been high as shit trying to get through the day you know yeah it's wild so anyway you got through that with ialaska

in a lot of ways i did i did because like i just knew that to be true you know my dad was one of kind he really was yeah it sucks yeah it really sucks i mean that you had to go through that and how old was he he was a young 71 still young 71's really young what was his name Albert albert albert shrieky yeah yeah cute yeah man that's amazing inside of you is brought to you by rocket money if you want to save money then listen to me because i use this ryan uses as so many people use rocket money it's a personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions crazy right how cool is that monitors you're spending and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings and you know what's

How old was it when he's paying for your acting classes? 16. How much are acting classes back there? At the time, they're like a $900. It's a lot of money. $900 for like 10 weeks or something. Yeah. For like my first on camera, you know, TV commercial acting, whatever.

McDonald's. Now that was later. I worked at McDonald's. You did? Oh, yeah. I love it. I was a counterperson and a fry guy. I asked to have to mop I almost got fired for I did get fired but I you had to mop in the M like do an M with the with the mop and then yes and the guy yes that's how we were trained to do it the arc the arches whatever M for McDonald's and then put it in squeeze it dry put it back in water M M do it back and forth I swear on my life and I remember that's almost culty by the way it was weird I remember the guy

I was like, hey, you're not doing the arches. I'm like, are he serious? He's like, yeah, that's how he trained you. And then I got, I think I got, I think I got, I think I got fired because I was stealing Big Max or no, no, no, um. Filet of fish. No, I love those filet fish. It was a Mick, uh, Mick, uh, Mick Flurry?

No, what was those things that they have on occasion? Mick Ribs. Oh. I stole a whole bunch, well, it wasn't stealing, but, they were left over but you weren't allowed to take them after your shift but we were closing and i took like 10 in the bag and i brought it out to my dad and i go like this and the guy goes you got my dad points and i turn around it's the manager he's like what are you doing i go oh well these were going to be thrown away he's like and i went there and he i didn't get fired right then but yeah

anyway but um that's amazing that your brother paid for your acting classes so whenever you win an award and you've won an award before. You won some award I read. Did you get up on stage and go, I just want to thank my brother who paid for my acting classes? Oh, for sure, I must have said something. You must have.

Or like at least been like, I want to, you know, like from my family that just is like fucking awesome, you know, thanks for always supporting me. Did you, uh, did you always want to act from a young age? Did you, did you have those, I'm going to ask a real question.

You have to answer it real. Okay. If this is the way you thought, Did you think, I just love acting? I want to act. I don't care what I do as long as it's acting. Theater or whatever the fuck. Or was it like, I want to be famous actor.

I want to be, I want to do movies, and I want to be famous and make a lot of money. Oh, no, the first. Really? Yeah. Yeah. Because don't forget, I started in the theater, in like community theater in like Unionville, which is outside of Toronto. Right. So I'm like seven years old.

And I'm like, I am, I've just discovered the greatest drug of all time. Really? Which was like that bond that you have when you meet, like when you've done a play with your family. I was like, this is it. This is it. This is it. And so then when I auditioned for high school, there was a high school being built in where I lived. There was a fine arts program.

I mean, I don't know what I would have done if I didn't get accepted. It would have been, like, terrifying. What would you have done if you didn't become an actress? I don't know. Oh, not if I had. Can you say actress anymore? Is it just actor? I say actress.

I know. I don't know anymore what to say and what not to say. You know, it's funny. I say that I am an actor, but when I'm talking, like, if I have to still differentiate, like if I'm in a conversation with somebody, I'll be like, like, oh, that actress is amazing. I'd say that actor, then be like, well, who are you?

It just helps differentiate. You know, when, what year did you get entourage? You started in the second season of Entourage, right? End of second, yeah. What did you, what was your, what was it like being on set, working with all those guys? It was a lot of testosterone.

A lot of things going on. There's not many girls. I mean, there are girls, but I guess there were a lot of women on that show, right? There were, but my world was very with the boys. Did you like being with the boys? I've always loved being with the boys. Apparently, I'm great with me with the boys.

I don't know why that is, but if you, like, look in my career, I'm oftentimes the only girl with boys. Why is that? I think because I had an amazing relationship with my dad and my brother, and I felt very comfortable around men. They could say anything. You don't get offended. No.

And also, too, you know, I always laugh. I kind of joke about this. My boyfriend always laughs at this. I think that, I mean, in some ways, this is funny. In other ways, this is really sad. But I've become super, I'm really good at flipping it. Really good at what? Flipping it.

Like, I can flip a situation. Like, I can flip an uncomfortable situation and not make anybody uncomfortable. It doesn't need to be weird for you. It won't be weird for me. You don't allow yourself to feel uncomfortable. Well, it's not worth it. I mean, unless someone really makes you uncomfortable, you're like, you went over the lines.

Have you had that? Rarely. Rarely. I mean, I've had it, yes. On the work. Yep, in the workplace. And I handled it. And there was very little backlash.

and, yeah, I flipped it. I mean, you ask any woman, I'm sure they're going to say I've worked with a few pigs in my life, right? Yeah. Have you worked with some horrific people before? No. No.

Most of them you can tolerate. And what was your experience on entourage? Did you really enjoy doing the show? The best. What was so fun about it? 10 out of 10. 10 out of 10? Like an 11 out of 10.

You remind me like almost East Coast. I mean, you do. You do. You're very East Coast. Yeah. You seem like you're from New York. Yeah. People told you that?

My whole life. Yeah, you just seem like you're from Long Island. Like, oh, yeah. Shrieky? She lived next to the Pellegrinos over on, uh, what the, in Oceanside? Or I don't have a fucking, what was it? Where do my grandparents live? That's a weird.

Yeah, but that's how. I love it next to the Pellegrinos. That's so good. Her name was Chicky Pellegrino. She lived across the street from my grandmother, Ruth. Ruth, Xstein, the Pellegrinos lived across the Cross the Street, Anthony. Yeah, they all...

Chicky Pellegrino. I walked old... Do you write? Yeah. You write? Yeah. So you write screenplays? Mm-hmm.

You need to use that name. Chicky Pellegrino? Yes. I remember walking over... You can play Chicky Pellegrino. I remember walking over to the Pellegrino's house to ask Anthony if you had a screwdriver or something. And I looked down in the basement through the window because they weren't answered the front door. And he was going to town on this really...

on this woman. And it was so uncomfortable. I saw it and I go, oh my God, and I think we locked eyes and then I ran across the street and I felt so uncomfortable. Wait,

I had no idea what you were about to say. At first I thought you were going to say and he was going to tell like working out. Oh no, he was having sex. I can't.

And, you know, it was just, it was really uncomfortable. I have a lot of memories. You can't look at sparkling water the same, can you? No, No, I can't.

Oh, my God. But Entourage was a great experience for you. Great experience. How many seasons did you do? Two through eight and the movie. And the movie. Yeah. Now, for the movie, did you get paid a lot more than you would have in a TV show?

No. Did you ever feel like you got compensated well for that show? Did I ever feel like I got... Not necessarily, no. Right. but at the time it seemed fine it's so weird like I've just never in my career until very recently been sort of driven by money isn't that crazy you know what I don't think I was either until I felt like some people were taking advantage of me right and when that happens it becomes

business you become business exactly this is business exactly I'm delivering you deliver Exactly. And then you're just like, yes. And like, I've worked my ass off for however many years. And now, yeah, it's time. It's been time. It's been time. You know, and they will do whatever they can to take advantage of you.

There's no, there are no studios out there or networks that want to pay you a premium price, that want to just make you feel good. like they you deserve this this show is a hit now we're going to give you a raise you shouldn't even have to ask if you're working at a company all right and all of a sudden you're working hard and you're an integral part of this company and the company stocks go up and the company's worth a lot more if that boss doesn't come in there and go you've got a raise he's not a good boss and they don't it's all about saving money it's for the producers to save money so they look good in the eyes of the studio it's horseshit it's just how it works. And sometimes you've got to stand up and go, Fah, you, I deserve more than that, and you have to fight for it. And sometimes you piss a lot of people off. And it's okay.

Yeah. Because it's business. It's business. Forget about it. Show business, honey. Yeah, exactly. You said that the broculture of entourage still exists. You think that's, of course it still exists, right?

Yeah. To those guys every night in Hollywood. You mean like outside of the bro culture. Yeah. 100% that still exists. Yeah. Everywhere you look, it's still. Where you look.

Oh, are you referring to like how people always go on and on about how misogynistic the show was? Do they do that? Yes. Constantly. And you're upset by that. I think it's such horseshit. That's what the show was. It was about a bunch of these.

But, but. but that was it a different time a different time be not that different so what happens still now like let's be real you know yeah it was post me too before me too yeah like every week there's some new shithead that's you know has some is going going down for something and so you know i always just defended it. I was like, I think I just always got sensitive about it because I think people love to hate on things that are working. And so someone's always going to say something. And the truth is that, you know, Doug Allen was a genius. And Doug Allen simply wrote about the shit that went on. And he did it in an entertaining fashion. So it's like, you can shit on

the show or just like hate our business but he was writing about our business like Doug used to say oh my god this is tame compared to what the real story is right you know so yes so I roll my eyeballs because I just think it's ridiculous and I think like you know people are inherently fascinated with our business and I think you got to take the good with the bad there's a lot of bad This certainly is. All right, this is called shit talking with Emmanuel Shrieky. Did you get a lot of problems with your name? Good.

Say it again. Manuel Shrieky. Yes, very good. Did people give you shit about your last name? Were you like the shrieks? Oh. Trekkie. Shrinky, crequite.

Creaky. But nobody could ever, nobody ever. It was trequy. Nobody could understand. Because you know, I wish. But you know why, though? when you say it in French if you speak French the name

makes sense. You don't speak French then you're like baffled by the name because in French it's shrieky Schicchi. C-H is like shampignon So in French Q-U-I is key Right? So it's

Yeah. Is it long hours for you or are you kind of go in and out? In and out. I think the killer is the, being the first one up, like 6 a.m. called time. Tyler. He's there to the beginning to the end. Yeah. Was he exhausted?

No. No. How old is he? He's 35. That's why. Can I couldn't do it now. He's brilliant. He's brilliant.

He's a nice guy. He's an amazing Superman. He's got to do the podcast. I asked him, he said he would. He's got to, I know he works. Oh, I'll tell him. You say you have to go on. 100%.

See? She's got my back. Ryan? What do you think of Ryan's mustache? I love it. Do you? Yeah. I love all.

Does your boyfriend have a mustache? No, but I love when he has facial hair, but I'll tell you, I'm a sucker for anything that's like 70s. Like, I love your glasses. Oh, you do? I love that stash. I love 70s, too. Do you like horror movies?

Love. Me too. I love horror movies. Did you see X? No. Well, it takes place in the 70s, and it's kind of like these porn actors who end up at this house and all the horror begins. And it's really good.

Is it really good? Ty West directed it. X. Okay. X. Cool. It's really good. That girl is in it.

She's on the new Wednesday Adam show. It's called Wednesday. It's coming out, Tim Burton. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. What's her name? Wednesday. My friend Alan Miles, they created it with Tim Burton. It's called, the name's Jenna.

Ortega. She's adorable, isn't she? And she's great next. Oh, my God. Great. Okay. Favorite horror movie all the time. The Shining.

I knew it was going to say. Rosemary's baby. It's because it's impossible. Children of the corn. Jesus. Remember the legate? I eat Malachi. I don't like scary it.

By the way, just because we're talking about horror. Oh my God. Dommer. Is that what you're going to say? That's what I told him. My friend, Tom. It's incredible. It really is.

My friend, I'm only in episode five. But my friend text me because we watched it last night. He goes, not watching anymore. I had all kinds of crazy dreams about me and you picking up Dahmer from jail That was his text to me this morning Yeah, it is dark But wow, that guy

Is other level. I won't watch it. That plays Dommer. It's disturbing. He's just like him. If you watch the interviews with the real Jeffrey Dahmer, you're like, Oh, Lord. And the scenes are so intense. Oh, my God. It is... That first episode is an episode, spoiler alert,

where it just shows you how he got caught and then it starts the series. Which, by the way, I loved that they did that. Because I didn't actually know the background of Dolmer at all. So I was like, what? You're like, this guy's not going to live. What is happening? But I found it was so well done.

And that lead guy, Evan... Peters? So my favorite show of the past two years was mayor of East Town. I just thought it was Mayor of Easttown Yeah I didn't see that

Mayor of Easttown N-A-R-E mayor Oh it's what's your name Kate Wieslet I loved it He was in it He was in it He's the young cop

Who gets killed In the house Yes He was great I flipped out When I figured that out Because I was like Oh my God

This guy's unrecognizable He was so sweet in that show Such a nice guy And here he's a monster I can't I can't. That's just like, wow. Amazing. So weird. Oh, it's weird. This has been a real treat. What a treat. Thank you.
