Starting point is 00:02:58 Reveory. No, no. Sibling reverie. Don't do that with your mouth. Sibling Revelry. That's good. Oliver Relage Hudson here
Starting point is 00:03:18 reporting live from my own mind. I'm on a solo mission. It's just me. You're only going to be hearing my voice for as long as I choose to stay on this podcast episode. I'm sitting in my living room. I'm looking at my chandelier, which is not in line with the table underneath. And it hasn't been for 10 years yet. I refuse to move the table. Outside my window is the inside of the fence.
Starting point is 00:03:58 that when the kids were into graffeting and doing pieces, as they call them, they used the back of this fence to create their artwork, and I like it. And that's where I am right now. I'm alone in my house. My family is in Colorado. I just finished a job. I can't say what it is. Well, it's not like that big of a deal, but I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm hosting a baking competition. I'll just say that. First time being a host of something, and I really like it. I think it suits me because I get to talk like I am right now
Starting point is 00:04:45 and dive into people's lives and make attempts at being funny, hamming it up for the camera, just being authentically Oliver Rutledge. Hudson. So it was fun though. It was very, very fun. I had a great time. And then of course, I was in Happy Gilmore 2. I guess this is just a podcast of me just ripping off my credits and what I've been up to lately. But no, I was in Gilmore 2 and it was so much fun. I spent a month there. I haven't talked about it yet just because I haven't. I got to work with Scotty Shuffler and Roy McElroy and Brooks Kepka and Bryson DeCambeau. You know, it's the top golfers in the world.
Starting point is 00:05:33 And I'm a golfer myself. So it was just a treat. I was there for a month. It was so much fun. You know, Sandler's one of the greats. I've known him for a long time. Drop, name drop. You know, relationship drop.
Starting point is 00:05:49 And I got to play a character that, well, not even a character. I got to do something as an act. that I've never gotten to do before, which is play a weird-ass character. His name is Harley, if you haven't seen the movie, and he's a golfer that is basically genetically modified and can hit the ball a thousand yards. I had no idea what I was getting into. When Sandler says, you know, I want you to be in a movie, you just say, yeah, you know, do you want to read the script? Whatever. Sure, I can, but I don't care. If you say that you want me to be in something, them i'm in and i got lucky enough that it was happy gilmore too which of course is an iconic
Starting point is 00:06:30 you know the first one is iconic so much of my childhood and and lines from that movie you know and uh so yeah it was i didn't know what the hell i was doing i get to i get to work the first day you know looking through costumes i'm like holy shit okay this is real leather skull cap with like a cut off biker vest and like chains leather pants and I shaved a goatee and then they when I got to the makeup chair they just started putting makeup on me this this stainer it's like a tan to make you tan but it's like it stains your skin and they kept going darker and darker until I started to turn orange and I'm like oh shit is this how far we're going and then I turned it turned like an orange bite Harley my name was
Starting point is 00:07:19 Harley in the show an orange biker which turned out to be perfect for it because it was just so over the top so crazy but it made such a splash that movie it's just so crazy it's unbelievable the amount of people that streamed it and watched it um but yeah i had i had an awesome time lucky i'm a lucky man to have been in that piece of history i say that's what i say who needs scorsese who needs David Fincher. Who needs Spielberg? Come on. You know what I mean? Like, who needs awards? Who needs Emmys Academy Awards? Golden Globes? I have happy Gilmore too. You know, that's worth all. That's worth all of it. Wouldn't trade it. Would not trade it. Um, so that was nice. And then the other thing is summer's just coming to an end.
Starting point is 00:08:21 it's time to get back into school mode even though we're no longer in school i always treat summer as i did when i was a kid and going to school you know as an adult i'm like it's summertime like why are we working it's summer yeah so what i'm almost 50 years old i'm 48 49 i'm 40 i'll be 49 in september yeah so what like it's summer we're not supposed to be working i'm not supposed to call anyone back during the summer. I've got a rest of development when it comes to the summer. And now it's coming to an end.
Starting point is 00:08:59 It all starts up again. It all starts up again. And then Wilder, my oldest, he's going to be a senior. And so we're in the whole college mode. And that's hell for me. Because I feel like now I'm going back and doing the applications again.
Starting point is 00:09:20 You know, I'm like, oh, fuck man like what this prompts we got to do well i have like anxiety that i'm having to do it again and it's much more difficult than it was now or at least there's more pressure on it you know before you do your applications i don't even remember being helped uh for my parents or anyone i maybe they did you know but it was all right in of course was 1994 so i i feel like i just wrote I started my essays and fill out the applications and I sent them in and it was very simple. You know, now I guess it's so competitive, but these, you know, it's like, oh, you need, you need someone to, you know, you need a counselor.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Oh, cool, no, no, the school has one. No, no, no, you need an outside counselor, you know, that really knows the ropes and it's going to do this and that and it's going to help you. And then you have an essay writer, a guy who's going to, someone who's going to help you with your essay, you know, and help craft it and this, this and that. And I'm like, damn. Really? Can't we just, can't you just write the essay? But I will say that it does take some pressure off.
Starting point is 00:10:33 But the real issue is, is honestly, the expense of some of this? I'm like, no way, it's not happening. Sorry. You know, I did it this way. You can do it this way too. You know what I mean? Like, you can write your own essay. I'll help you.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Oliver Hudson is one of the great American novelists in case you listening to this podcast didn't know that I am I have not written a book yet but if I were to write a book everyone is already saying that you will be the next great American novelist so that might come later in my life but anyway that whole college experience we'll get through it it'll be great you know the kid is deciding on to whether he wants a college experience or if you wants like a city experience. But aside from all that, here's the sad part. One, well, not one.
Starting point is 00:11:27 My firstborn is not going to be in this house anymore. And that's crazy to me. I'm very family connected. It is my number one priority in my life. I have molded my entire life and career around my family. Yes, you have to make sacrifices as we all do in our work. You know, and I'm lucky because I get to be home for extended periods of time and be very present, but then I'm gone for extended periods of time.
Starting point is 00:11:55 So there were certain jobs that I wouldn't even consider doing because it would just take me too far away for too long from my family. And now this boy is not going to be here in a year, and that is crazy. Just the idea of walking past his room and it being empty. You know, the nostalgia. that has been built up for 17, 18 years. It just lingers. You can smell it literally, there's a scent.
Starting point is 00:12:28 And when they leave, and some of you listening, I'm sure I've already experienced this, that's heart wrenching. It's gonna take some time to get used to, I think. Because it's just another piece of energy of life force that is no longer, you know, in this house that makes it all run. And he's going to be off doing his own thing as he should. He's an amazing child.
Starting point is 00:12:58 And it's going to hurt, though. It's crazy. You know, definitely going to be shedding a thousand tears. I'm an emotional person, so every time I walk by that room, I'm probably just going to be like, oh, God. Aaron's going to have to get me straight. He's like, hey, Oliver, okay, look, just FaceTime him. He's right there.
Starting point is 00:13:23 Everything's going to be okay. But no, it's crazy, man. It's crazy. And then, of course, it shows your own age. You know what I mean? You're like, holy shit. This guy was a little butterball just a second ago. And now he's gone.
Starting point is 00:13:39 He's an adult. He's in the world making a life for himself without us. which of course we'll get a thousand phone calls and you know that umbilical cord stretches stretches across the globe really so that's what we're preparing for this year counting the days but at least i still have my other two babies they'll be here to console me and take care of me September always feels like the start of something new, whether it's back to school, new projects, or just a fresh season. It's the perfect time to start dreaming about your next adventure. I love that feeling of possibility, thinking about where to go next, what kind of
Starting point is 00:14:30 place we'll stay in, and how to make it feel like home. I'm already imagining the kind of Airbnb that would make the trip unforgettable, somewhere with charm character and a little local flavor. If you're planning to be away this September, why not consider hosting your home on Airbnb while you're gone? Your home could be the highlight of someone else's trip, a cozy place to land, a space that helps them feel like a local.

I would be the first immigrant mayor in generations, but 40% of New Yorkers were born outside of this country. Artists and activists, I mean, do you ever feel demoralized?

I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that really was my reality nine years ago. I just normally do straight stand-up, but this is a bit different. On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. Well, 22nd of July 2015. A 23-year-old man had killed his family.
Starting point is 00:16:44 And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club?

Starting point is 00:18:19 It's a freaking war zone. These people are animals. There's no integrity. There's no loyalty. That's all gone. In the 1980s, modeling wasn't just a dream. It was a battlefield. Book, book, book, make deals.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Let's get models in. Get them out. And the models themselves? They carried scars that never fully healed. Until this day, honestly, if I see a measuring tape, I freak out. The Model Wars podcast peels back the glossy cover and reveals a high-stakes game where survival meant more than beauty. Hosted by me, Vanessa Grigoriatis,
Starting point is 00:18:54 this is the untold story of an industry built on ruthless ambition. Listen to Model Wars on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or Rickorias. ever you get your podcast. So another thing that I wanted to talk about, and I haven't tried it yet. I had a brain scan. And it was with this guy,
Starting point is 00:19:30 his name's Dr. Amen, my sister and I did and so we got to have our brains scanned and then we got to go on his podcast and sort of a fun little thing and it was really interesting the process was really interesting it was over three days and there was injections and there was imaging and it was a whole thing and a questionnaire and an intake form and so after all of this you look at your brain and it's really beautiful and incredible the images are amazing amazing. And through trauma, well, because of trauma, you can see certain parts of your brain
Starting point is 00:20:14 that have been affected. I mean, if you were a drug addict or if you were an alcohol abuser or something like that, you can see that. And it really is, it can detect ADD or ADHD, whatever you want to say very well. Anyway, it turns out like, I have it. I mean, I kind of suspected that I did. You know what I mean? Never paid any mind to it. I just kind of went about my life, but knew that there were certain things holding me back. So talking with my psychiatrist, I have a patch, a new patch, and I don't know what the hell it is. I've yet to try it yet, but this is going to be something new. Maybe it's going to turn me into just an on-fire superstar who can't stop working.
Starting point is 00:21:05 But I don't know. It's interesting. You know, we've had some really cool people on our show, experts who talk about it as a superpower and not really a deficiency. I think it's about how you look at it. So I'm excited to give it a shot. I'm excited to try that patch and see if it changes anything. I'm sure a lot of these listeners that I'm talking to have dealt with their own ADD, ADHD. And now that I discovered AI, which I know I'm crazy late to the game, which I just,
Starting point is 00:21:43 I've been resisted it, but, you know, that's where the ADD kind of can kick in pretty good because I'm like, oh my gosh, like, I can learn anything. And then I go down the rabbit hole of AI. But I'm so late to the game. I resisted it. It scares me. And it scared me, not meaning like a robot's going to infiltrate my brain and take over the world, which probably will happen at some point. But it was more of like, oh, God, it's just kind of railing against the technology. It's just, I feel like I like analog. I want to be in nature or my boat or in the ocean or in the woods. But I gave it a shot and I'm like, uh-oh. Like, I like this. This is pretty cool and I know I sound like an old man right now but you know my mom is way more AI than I am
Starting point is 00:22:39 she's like honey GPT said this I'm like oh you if you nicknamed him now or her you know sometimes she'll be like well chat said that I'm like oh now it's chat you know and then my sons and my kids come up to me and like yeah no I asked I asked chat and they said that you know blah blah blah x y z and i'm like imagine if you just replaced that with paul or some sort of a name you know i asked paul about you know this bruise on my leg and you know paul said that it was not a big deal i mean we're now speaking about chat gpt as if it is human and uh it's it's wild it's nutty and i know i sound like an old man and i know this is old news but anyway my point is, since it's just me solo, and I am an AI wizard now, let's ask chat G.P. Twas for podcast prompts.
Starting point is 00:23:45 What is a great conversational podcast prompt? Give me four of them. To start a great. A great conversation. Let's see what it says. Here are four strong podcast style conversational prompts designed to spark great discussion whether you're hosting a show or just kicking off a deep
Starting point is 00:24:09 talk. Okay, here we go. Number one, what's a belief you held 10 years ago that you no longer believe and what changed your mind? Ooh, gosh. No, pass. Number two, if someone
Starting point is 00:24:25 gave you a million dollars to create something that could help the world what would you build no number three what's something you've never told anyone publicly before but you wish more people knew about you well that is something that the public doesn't need to know if you could live one random day of your life again not to change anything just to re-experiencing it what day would you pick well it probably wouldn't be my birth because actually my birth was traumatic my mom's talked about it a bunch I think I've even talked about it a bunch but I was baking in mom's belly for three weeks after my due date back in 1976 I guess the idea was eh you know just the baby's not running. Just let it pop out when it pops out. Well, unfortunately, I basically ate shit and
Starting point is 00:25:30 almost died, meaning I'm maconium aspirated. For those of you who don't know what that is, we are fed through an umbilical cord as a, as when we're in your, you row. And you got to take a dump. And that's exactly what I did. But it's in the amniotic fluid. Of course, that's what we breathe and boom we're little and boom in it goes deep into my lungs and mcconium is a very tarry substance and i came out oh my god it's a boy because mom didn't know and boom i was rushed off into nick you and i was there for three weeks or a month and um i had a slim chance of living i don't know the percentage i think it was like not slim but maybe I got 30% chance of survival. You know, there's needles in my head and da-da-da-da-da.
Starting point is 00:26:26 But I made it. I made it. I did in case anyone's wondering, I did it. Like I pulled through. So that's a day that I do not want to relive. But when you're that little, you're newborn. the question is does something like that affect you your first breath and in my case smelled like shit is being whisked away your first moments of life needles put in your head
Starting point is 00:27:06 you're not near your mother you have no skin to skin there is no love there there is you know you can't be confused as a kid but there was it's just probably doesn't feel good so has this fucked me up from the beginning um i forget who i was talking to but someone in the field of psychology or was it this these astrologers maybe i can't remember but yes the answer was that yeah it does um so basically my birth could be the root of all my problems which is weird because my birth is what gave me life to even be here yet it's the root of all my problems this is a conundrum i'm a conundrum it's not really something you can work through you know you don't remember it you can't go to a psychologist and being like you know really
Starting point is 00:28:11 i'm gonna really dig i want to go back oh like your childhood you know when when you were having issues with your father? No, no, like way back, like my birth. Okay, well, how do you tap into that? Anyway, so I'm not going to, I'm not going to relive that day.

Starting point is 00:33:19 you get your podcasts. What part of your life? looks fine on the outside, but secretly feels broken. That's interesting. Because I'm somewhat of a public figure, you know, I guess. It's always weird when I say that because I don't feel like I'm like famous, really, and I'm not really. So, you know, I guess people look at a life, not just mine, but even celebrity life, and think, oh, man, that looks great. everything looks great but i don't think that's the case with most people
Starting point is 00:34:10 we're all bit broken we can't not be perfect doesn't exist that word should not even be in the dictionary what is perfect nothing life is definitely not perfect we're all a little damaged you know it's just the extremes of it but what part of your life looks fine on the outside but secretly feels broken. I'd say my security in myself. I think from the outside perspective, I look extremely confident, extremely secure, unafraid,
Starting point is 00:34:46 will say anything, don't care what people think. And that is not necessarily true. I am socially confident, I guess, you know, but I do care what people think. And I just pretend that I don't. I'll say outlandish things, but I know it's safe, you know? Strangely, I know the things that I can kind of get away with and say, and it be safe.
Starting point is 00:35:14 But I do care what people think, and I think it's to the detriment of my creativity, you know, because instead of just throwing it all out there, I'm so worried about how it's going to be perceived that you get smaller a little bit. You try to, you don't want to take a risk or push an off. envelope for fear of someone saying, what the hell is he doing? You know, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, so, oh, my God, I just want to make sure that, you know, I don't rock a boat and that people like me, you know, so I do care and I do have that problem that I want to be liked too much, I think. I think that's an issue, you know, that
Starting point is 00:35:58 I'll go out of my way so people don't dislike me you know yeah so that's something I don't know if I ever talked about that on this crazy podcast if you had to relive one moment of shame
Starting point is 00:36:16 every day for the rest of your life what moment would haunt you the most oh God can't even talk about that one not going to talk about that one there are things we say and then there are things we don't but shame shame is powerful shame is dangerous man shame is shame hurts even if you've caused the shame you have to give yourself grace you know
Starting point is 00:36:48 even if you are wrong you know even if you are complicit and you are the cause of your own shame at some point in order to sort of heal and get over that because shame can destroy you you have to forgive yourself you have to put things into a larger perspective and say we have one life here so yes did i fuck up um did i cause this did i cause that am i taking this on am I feeling shame that I shouldn't be feeling whatever it is you got to take that moment give yourself some grace look at look look from 30,000 feet and forgive yourself because you don't want to be walking around for your entire life feeling that shame free yourself of that shame that's that would be my advice because you know it's in all
Starting point is 00:37:53 of us, everyone else, we all have a little shame. If the version of you from 10 years ago could see your life now, what would disappoint them the most? Ooh, that's interesting. I'm 48. It'll be 49 in September, so 3839. My production company is called Slow Burn Productions for a reason. I've always been a slow burn you know kate burned hot bang you know she worked her ass off to get where she is but you know boom almost famous bang on the scene i've always been a slow burn you know it's like boom a little pop here and then kind of like what's going on and boom a little pop here and oh that's a good one and hey i'm kind of on my way and then oh wait no i'm not on my way um so that's that's That being said, to answer this question of the version of you from 10 years ago, could see your life now, what would disappoint them the most?
Starting point is 00:39:00 I'd probably say that I'm not further along than I could be. I haven't really reached the potential that I know I have, that I thought I would probably have reached by now. not to say you can't keep striving which you should but it's double edged i take my time you know luck plays a factor you have to work hard to get lucky and sometimes i don't work hard enough i enjoy my life i enjoy my family i enjoy the fun things and sometimes that takes precedent when maybe it shouldn't so that's what i would you know why aren't you further along you know why aren't you you know not don't scratch that but it's less about further along and why aren't you doing the things that you know you can do why aren't you focusing on the creativity that you have inside of you
Starting point is 00:40:01 that you know you can shine in being an actor is great i love being an actor but it wasn't the first thing that i wanted to do i wanted to make movies direct movies I have a vision in my head of just life. And I've always felt like I've had sort of an odd look at life. And I want to tell stories through my lens, you know. And I have yet to do that, you know, because I think I'm afraid. I think there's fear there somehow. And yeah, so there it is.
Starting point is 00:40:33 And to wrap it all up to bookend it all, maybe you want to get this ADD patch on. Maybe all that will change. and then in another 10 years when I can answer that question again things will be different anyway thanks for listening to me just bullshit and rant for however long 20 minutes or so
