The following program is a podcast.1.com presentation.
She's a lifestyle blogger extraordinaire.
Fantastic.
And he's a serial entrepreneur.
A very smart cookie.
And now Lauren Everts and Michael Bostic are bringing you alone for the ride.
Get ready for some major realness.
Welcome to the skinny confidential, him and her.
Aha.
Can you get clean tea before we go to the next evening?
No.
Got to move.
Got to keep it moving.
Hi, guys.
It's Lauren Everett's from The Skinny Confidential with my lovely charming husband, Michael Bostic.
Michael Bostic here, coming in live, back again, ready to roll.
Oh, my God.
Kevin's laughing.
If you guys don't know who Kevin is, he's our producer, and he is laughing his ass off at Michael.
I've got my mojo.
I'm in a rhythm on these podcasts now.
I am found the voice.
It took me about a year, but I'm here.
and I'm ready to roll.
Sometimes I catch him in the mirror practicing his voice in his blue hair brush.
Yeah, so take that people who study voiceover in radio because I have nailed it.
Okay, you're cut off.
So I just got a really exciting purchase on Amazon.
Some of you may have seen it on my Snapchat.
It is a camo dog stroller.
Yeah. And I had to put it together.
You loved every second of it.
Well, you know, when you and I first got together, she did a bunch of useless dead beats before me.
And none of them knew how to put anything together. I could barely call themselves men.
Wow. Shout out to my exes.
Yeah. I came into your life and I started putting together cabinets and shelves and now dog strollers, apparently.
But the point is, I am handy and I'm a man.
You know what? That is true.
ex-boyfriends could never put together my IKEA furniture, so I always ended up doing it,
or I would call my friend Erica, and now you can do everything. So I just thought to helpless.
Yeah, you're pretty good at it. Yeah, I'm good. Big mistake, though, because what happens is that
when I go to the airport now, I don't know what to do, so I make you do everything and prep everything
for me like I did the other day. No, I know. It's weird. It's weird being in relationship with you because
sometimes I feel, and this might be a little controversial, but sometimes I feel like I'm dating a
paraplegic.
It's almost like sometimes your arms and legs don't work at all.
But then apparently when you're not with me, you turn into Superwoman and you can do
everything.
So I think it's like, you know, when you spoil a kid for a really long time and all
a sudden, and they like act like they can't do anything.
And then you leave the room and turn on a camera.
And they're like Whiz Kid 101, like building skyscraper Legos and like gymnastics and
swing around.
So that's like, I feel like that happens.
Like there's a whole other life you lead without me in it.
I act extremely helpless around you.
I make you prep everything for me.
So it's ready to go.
It's actually extremely strategic.
Yeah, apparently.
Okay, so anyways, so we got this camo dog stroller.
And the reason that I got it is because we live, a high rise?
What would you call it?
We live in like, yeah, a high rise, a condo building.
A condo building.
So when Michael leaves me with the dogs and my computer and my purse upstairs and my coffee and my iced tea,
it's very, very hard to carry two dogs with all that stuff down to the car. So I was like, how can I fix this?
So I found this stroller on Amazon where you can put your purse and your computer and everything kind of underneath it.
You put the dogs in the stroller. You zip it up. You put a little blanket in there for them.
And then it has a coffee holder, a green tea holder, and a water bottle and phone holder. So it's so efficient. I just feel like I put everything in my stroller. I go downstairs. I close it up. I put the stroller in the back seat.
the dogs are happy.
And you don't look like an asshole at all when you're doing it.
I might look like an asshole, but you know what?
I'm being a smart asshole.
This is strategic as well.
So just to let everyone know, though, Michael has just discovered that he likes the stroller as well.
Well, I like it when I don't, you know, it's, I'm not going to lie.
Like, when I don't have to carry, like, you say you have to bring all that stuff down, but it's me.
And so I am liking the efficiency of it.
But I'm not going to lie, I don't get embarrassed by a lot.
It is a little embarrassing when people run over to check out your baby.
and they look under the stroller,
and it's two screaming, barking, biting chihuahuas.
It's not the best look that men give other men, you know?
I think they look cute in it, though, don't you?
Yeah, but, you know, this is, it is absurd.
I mean, listen, if you would have asked me five, ten years ago,
if I would be running around with two chihuahuas in a stroller,
I would have punched you in the mouth.
And now, here I am.
Married life is treating me well.
I love to manipulate you into walking the dogs in a camo stroller.
All right, on that note, thank you guys for subscribing, listening and rating the skinny
confidential him and her podcast on iTunes and Podcasts. We really appreciate all your reviews.
You guys are all amazing. I think we're going to do another giveaway soon here for all of you
that have rated and subscribed. So if you guys haven't rated or subscribed, go over.
Give us five stars, not one star, Michael Bostick. And we're going to continue to grow this
awesome community. Yeah. So if you guys listened last week,
week. I thought it was a really good show. We had Mark Manson on. And I feel like the reason I like
podcasting so much is you kind of, I don't want to say you get access to like different things,
but you get, you get access and you get to have conversations with people that you may not get
to have if you didn't have a podcast. So I was thinking like the main reason I really like doing this
outside of, you know, hoping to bring some value in entertainment to people's lives is you get
to meet really interesting people.
have really interesting conversations. So I think no matter what, I would continue to keep doing it
just for that. Yeah, I think podcasting is similar to blogging in a way. I have got to interview some
people that I really admire and some authors and some famous people. But I think podcasting is a whole
different element. It really is because you get to talk to them and you get to really pick their brain
and sometimes there's awkward silences. And it's like, it's just kind of a different dynamic.
Yeah. So anybody out there listening, now that we're going to start doing more guests,
maybe we should create something where people can request guests and help. And we can have
the listeners help us get to people. Yeah. Yeah. Well, definitely, maybe for the next giveaway,
we'll do something where you guys like at who you want interviewed on one of our Instagrams or something.
And also on that note, doing the Collins two weeks ago was really fun. It's fun to talk to you guys
on the phone as opposed to just talking to you guys over Snapchat or email. It's really interesting
to get you guys on the phone and hear your voice and hear your energy. So we will definitely do
another call-in podcast. Okay. So we are about to get into our interview this week with
Sabina Goddeky. But before that, I want to tell you about RXBar. No joke. I think that this is
definitely one of my favorite sponsors. I am obsessed with RXBarr. So,
I just put like eight boxes in my office and my whole staff is devouring them.
I went to the other day to get my chocolate sea salt.
Is that the one I like?
Yeah, you like the chocolate sea salt.
And if the whole box is gone and I was pissed off legitimately.
They are so good, you guys.
They're all normal ingredients, nothing crazy.
No BS.
They have like dates and nuts and there's 12 grams of protein in each bar, which is amazing.
So when you're in a pinch, I just carry them in my handbag.
They're gluten-free, they're soy-free, they're dairy-free, and they contain no added sugar or
artificial ingredients.
So it's kind of like my ideal bar in every way.
No BS.
No BS.
Literally.
My favorite one is 100% the peanut butter.
What's yours?
You said chocolate?
I like the chocolate sauce, but I'm also, I'm liking the chocolate coconut.
I think that one's a close second.
I like them all, though.
This is hands down.
I completely stand behind this bar.
My favorite bar, if you're ever, like, looking at 20 million different bars at the
grocery store, go for the RX bar.
They're kind of the love of my life, and they're in every handbag I own.
New customers can get 15% off today with free shipping and free returns, which is
amazing, by going to RXbar.com slash the skinny.

All right.
So we are here with Sabina Godecki, actress, model, social media, star.
Traveler.
Traveler.
Hi, guys.
Yeah, we're so excited to have you here.
Thank you for having me.
I'm excited to be here.
And we can't wait to get all the deets.
So first, introduce yourself.
Tell us about you.
Tell us about travel.
You're acting.
Everything.
Give us slowdown.
Okay.
My name is Sabina.
I'm from a little town in Massachusetts called
Chikopee. My parents are from Poland. Then I moved to New York, lived there for eight years,
and now I've been here for six. I act and model. Let me see. Last year, I was in the entourage
movie. A few movies coming out this year, which I'm very, very excited about. Let me see what else.
I guess that's a good intro. That's a great intro. So you lived in New York. First,
let's start with that. Michael and I love New York. Oh, I miss it. It's my favorite place.
I would do anything to move back there.
it like living there?
It's a little chaotic, but I feel like it's, you go, you go for lunch, and then you run
into friends, and then you go run around and have auditions, and you run into friends on the
street, and then you end up at dinner.
And, I mean, it's the only city in the world.
You can leave at nine in the morning and come back 12 hours later, and I've seen like 15
of your closest friends somehow, all in one day.
So you were acting and modeling there, or just modeling?
I was.
Well, I actually went to Fordham for international business.
So let's just hope I never have.
to use that degree. So I did go to school for that. And then I took a four-year break and I studied
acting at William S. Burr in New York. I just felt my heart wasn't in business. But, you know,
my parents are from Poland to hardworking family and only fallback plan I've got is myself.
So I'm like, you know what, if acting ever doesn't work out, I better have a degree in that back pocket.
I love that you said the only fallback plan that you have is yourself. That's amazing. That's like
what the skinny confidential stands for is like,
doing your own thing and being in your own lane. Gosh, yeah. Yeah, I think that's really,
really important to just kind of really have your own thing. Yeah, totally. So when you,
you're modeling first and you transition to acting or you're acting and then you
transitioned to modeling. I was acting first. Um, and I kind of fell into modeling. I just had
some opportunities come along. I was actually hosting this show called the World Poker Tour on the
travel channel when I was like 21 years old. I used to watch that all the time. You did? I probably,
maybe I saw you.
Probably. I did it like 10 years ago I was doing that. And I just had a bunch of opportunities
keep coming along to do print work. And I just didn't have anybody properly managing me for that.
So I fell into modeling. So I was with Ford in New York for years. I'm with Willamina now here.
And they've been great. But yeah, I fell into it. I wasn't really seeking that out. And I feel
lucky to have that. Thank goodness. Is modeling as gnarly in New York as they say it is? Like,
is it as strict? I feel like Ford is known for being so strict.
I mean, thankfully, who I was working with there had a lot of fitness clients.
So I used to shoot with Shape Magazine.
I still do here, Shape Magazine, Women's Health.
So a lot of the things I was doing weren't necessarily focused on being as skinny as possible.
It was really fitness and lifestyle related.
So thankfully, that's what I was working with.
Okay, so tell us about your movies.
First, I want to hear about Entourage.
Tell us all there is to know about that.
And then I want to hear about your movies that are coming out.
entourage was interesting
It was funny
It was an opportunity that came along
And obviously I was like
Oh God I want to be in the entourage movie
And my first audition
The breakdown
My character everything
And then it says possible nudity
I'm like all right possible
I mean maybe I'm not going to have to do it
Get a call back
Still says possible nudity
I'm like here we go
Still got some wiggle room
Third callback
Nudity required
I was like oh shit
But you were in at that point.
I mean, at this point, I'm like, my heart's in it.
I'm invested.
They got me.
I mean, they knew what they were doing with saying the possible nudity,
because I think everyone in their head was like, oh, we can negotiate this.
And at that point, it was like absolutely non-negotiable.
And then I had a chemistry read with Kevin Connolly, and that was, you know, my fourth time back.
And then they still didn't even have the offer.
They brought me into Warner Brothers for the table read with the entire cast at Warner Brothers,
videotaped for the DVD lighting everything.
I still don't even have the offer.
I'm essentially auditioning for a fifth time in a row at this point.
And I'm at this table reading.
I'm like, gosh, I hope this isn't awkward.
But in the movie, how my characters introduced is that nude scene.
And I'm like, at least let me be sitting close to Kevin.
That my scene was with him.
I'm like, at least let me be sitting close to him so I can have like, you know,
a conversation with him up close and not feel uncomfortable.
but we literally were sitting 50 feet from each other in this audition or our table read.
I'm like, God, this is going to be so awkward.
I'm supposed to be having this intimate moment.
I'm essentially auditioning again.
He couldn't be any further from me.
And thank God I got the role.
But yeah, I had to talk with my family.
I'm like, guys, what do I do?
I'm up for this role.
Nudity is required.
This is not at all how I imagined my biggest, my biggest.
my biggest role.
And thank God there were other scenes other than that.
I'm probably five scenes in that movie.
And my parents are from Poland.
So they're like, what's entourage?
We're going to Google it.
My mom, my mom Googled it.
And she's like, I looked it up.
Seems like it's a big deal.
And I thought about it.
I'm like, you know what?
Like, I work my ass off.
This is an opportunity that's come my way.
I feel very grateful for it.
And it was basically either do that scene or the offer's not on the table.
So I did it.
it. Okay, so tell me about when you actually did the scene, though. Like, how did you have to have,
like, a drink? I would need a glass of wine. I'll be honest. It might have had a little brief cocktail
hour. Well, here's a thing. First, I was supposed to have, like, three weeks leading up to shooting it.
I hate working out. So I was like, three weeks, I can get in shape in three weeks. Friday,
all of a sudden, Kevin texts me. He was like, hey, are you looking forward to shooting the scene on
Monday? I was like, yeah, Monday in three weeks? He's like, no, Monday. As in like, three days.
I'm like, shit.
I'm not in shape at all.
Like, haven't been working out.
I'm like, oh, God.
So I basically, for three days, ran like 10 miles a day, worked out for like five hours a day.
I was, like, sitting in saunas and these weird sweat.
They have these weird sweat beds in L.A.
I don't even know what they are.
Your head sticks out and you're wrapped up and you're just sweating.
What are those called again?
Our friend Steve does those.
Infrared.
It was awful.
I was eating, like, broccoli, and that's it.
By the time it came time to shoot, I had one drink, and I was like, actually half a drink.
And I was like, oh, boy, that half a drink was a little aggressive.
But, yeah, it's a little awkward.
But thankfully, everyone was really professional, and it was a closed set.
And Doug Allen and everybody else involved was super professional and made an uncomfortable situation as comfortable as possible.
That's amazing.
It's so fun to hear like behind the stuff.
scenes of the nudity. Okay. Speaking of the entourage movie and nudity, what did mom and dad have to say about
that when you sat down to have family movie night? Boy, well, my family's very excited and proud of me,
and so they were all in attendance with me in New York. And when I say all, I mean my mom, my dad,
my brother, my sister-in-law, my godmother, and my uncle. And we're all in the car heading
over together and I'm like, guys, I've got to warn you. I've got a lot of scenes in the movie. You
don't need to watch the first one. So don't think you're going to miss me. But here's what you're
going to hear leading up to my scene. And I, you know, gave them the dialogue. And then I said,
so look down. You hear this dialogue. Look down. About 30 seconds. Then you hear this dialogue.
That's when I give you permission to look up. So I'm watching the scene come up. And my God,
This is the first time I'm seeing it on this level of a screen because I went in for ADR and, you know, to do some sound looping and stuff.
And I saw it, you know, saw it in this little TV.
And I'm seeing it on this giant screen.
I'm like, oh, my Lord, I don't even know how uncomfortable this is going to be for me.
So the moment's coming.
I look over at them.
I give them the thumbs up.
I'm like, this is when you got to look down.
Everyone's like, yeah, yeah, we got it.
We got it.
The scene comes on.
I turn around because I don't want to see it.
I turn on and look.
My entire family's watching.
it. They're all watching it. I don't know what the hell. No one looked down. And after the thing,
it was just this really awkward thing because my dad's like, good job, my uncle, good job, my brother.
They're also proud of me, but I think they're, it was like the elephant in the room for the,
for a little bit. But, you know, I think that they just got pumped because, and now that came out
wrong. It might not be the best. Or better getting pumped.
I used the wrong words.
I think they were just really proud of me.
And knowing that that moment was coming up,
I feel like they were like just really didn't get the cue there.
And they were just all watching, you know.
And then I'm like, look, look away.
Stop it.
Stop looking.
So what was the conversation like afterwards?
They're just like probably congratulatory.
Literally never mentioned ever.
It was like super focused on the acting.
They're like, my God, you blew me away with your acting.
I was like.
It's like if you're in a.
older brother and you ever walk in on your sister with a guy or something. It's just like, you just
never talk about it again. You just run away and pretend it never happened. It was so awkward.
Scrub your brain with like a sponge or something. It was awkward. But, you know, they're just,
they're just really supportive and they just know how hard I've worked to get to this place. So it was,
they were watching with, you know, pride to see, you know, how far I've come. That still sounds weird.
Nothing I say sounds right talking about this moment. It all comes out wrong. But, uh, but yeah, I
warn them.
Fair warning.
So I want to jump around a little bit then after that.
So we were talking before when you first came in here and you were mentioning that you
actually ended up dating Kevin.
And did this come about after or how much longer after?
Yeah, about six months after.
You know, I was recently single at that time.
We worked together and everybody was just really, you know, professional.
There was nothing at all.
And we worked together.
And that day, that was my last day shooting.
that day we saved that scene for last.
So thankfully we'd worked together for a few days and got to know each other.
And then by the time that scene came along, or that scene came along, that day he texts me
and he's like, really nice working with you.
I'm sure I loved it.
He's like, I hope that wasn't uncomfortable for you.
I mean, he had these like panties on that he had to wear that like basically tuck everything.
I mean, it was, it's the furthest thing from being a sexy scene in the world.
Let me tell you.
I had like weird taped up parts.
I mean, it's just not, it's not sexy.
I think people are like, oh, it must have been hot.
It's like not even a tiny little bit.
I've heard that.
I've heard people that do nude scenes.
Like, you think it's, like, guys think it's going to be this sexy thing and you get there and it's just everyone's wearing tape.
Do the guys have boners, though?
Does everyone have a boner?
I didn't see the situation.
We weren't dating at the time, so I never saw it.
So I think I hear from his explanation there was some thing that's really snug and tucks things away.
They make you, like, wear a thing.
Yeah, there's a thing that tux things.
I'm going to do this, like, for fun.
I'm going to order one off Amazon.
I'll be honest.
It's from what I did see.
I tried not to look, but from what I did see, it's like a nude panty.
It packs it in there real tight.
Do you have a pair?
You sound like you're a professional.
No, maybe I'll get one on Amazon.
I'll be honest.
You seem to be educated about it.
I was listening to, I was listening to Howard Stern a while back and somebody was
talking about it and he was being really funny about it.
I guess in his movie, private parts, he didn't wear it.
And he was super excited.
But everyone else that's professional wears it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So he said he was, like, fully hard during the bathtub scene.
Wait, wait, it makes you so you're not hard?
Yeah.
Can't, you like can't.
It like mashes you in.
Yeah, I've heard about them.
Wait, so if you have a boner, it actually takes the boner away.
Honestly, I was like doing everything.
I was like, I can't look down.
I'm a professional.
I'm not going to look there.
But yeah, apparently, that's what I was told.
It just basically just really cuts off all circulation.
I would have had a magnifying glass out.
I'm so curious about stuff.
I'm going to go Google it after the second.
I want to know.
If they're wearing it, you might need a magnifying glass.
That's amazing.
So, I'm going to jump around a little bit more.
So that was not your first role.
That was not your first movie.
No.
So in New York, I had worked on white collar, law and order.
I'd been on House of Lies here with Don Cheadle.
I did, but that was my most exciting thing.
I think the biggest stage of anything that I've ever really worked on.
I did a movie shortly after that with Tony Goldwyn,
called Outlaw Prophet with Tony Goldwyn and Molly Parker.
That was just a really amazing, incredible experience.
It was funny because one month I was playing in Entourage,
and then literally the next month I'm playing a polygamous cult wife in, you know,
very different.
I enjoyed that experience a bit more.
Just get to act a little more,
and it was just more fulfilling as an actor for sure.
That sounds amazing.
It sounds like you've been on a lot of different shows.
So if someone, I know you come from a small town, if someone is out there that wants to be an actress or a model and they come from a small town, what would you recommend?
What can they do?
Is there any tip or trick or a shortcut maybe or something?
Or is it just hard work?
Yeah, I guess what we're looking for is like, how much hustle did it take to put you in a position to get these rules?
Yeah.
Because I know it's not easy.
No.
To be completely honest, no.
It's been, you know, I come from the small town that, I mean, not a small town, but just small town.
comparison to, you know, this world of acting and modeling and everything. And I had zero connections,
zero resources, nobody to help me. And a lot of people who discouraged me, you know, when I talk about,
I'm like, I really want to do this. And people would be like, oh, well, maybe get that college degree,
which don't get me wrong. I'm so glad that I did. But it's hard to pursue something when sort of
everyone is essentially knocking it. So I think that was challenging. But I think, you know, I've been doing it
for about 10 years now and to start, you know, now I'm like having some success in it.
Like, it's, it's tough.
I mean, can you imagine essentially going to a job every single day and not getting a paycheck,
not getting a, you know, it's a tough job to sort of stay positive in, but.
Yep, we get it.
Big time.
No, I really relate to because I was at Sandio State and I was bored, bored, bored,
and I decided that I wanted to be a blogger, and this is six years ago.
So people didn't, like a blogger, what?
How are you going to make money?
What do you mean? And I was like, no, I have this like idea. And it's the same way. It's every single day, seven days a week, not getting paid a dime for three years. And then you start to kind of gain traction. And people are like, oh, it happened over or not. And you're like, no. Yeah, that's what I think. I have a lot of people. And it's, it's flattering. But they'll send me a message and say, hey, my son wants to do this. What's your advice? And it's just really hard to give. I mean, I've been working really hard for so long. And I feel so lucky. I have the best team around me.
between my agents and my managers and everybody in my life, I feel so lucky to have.
But it definitely was a hustle to get here.
I just had no resources and I just had to sort of start taking those workshops and that
kind of led to another workshop.
And I mean, some people move to L.A.
And it does happen in that one day.
There's some people who've been here for 40 years and it's never happened.
And, you know, I don't think there's any right way to do it.
But I feel so grateful to be in this place.
But I've worked my butt off.
No, it sounds like the common denominator with everyone we interview that it,
is gained any kind of success is that it is a hustle. It's every day. You have to ride it every day.
You have to want it and it's discipline. And no one can do it for you. And I think the thing that's
hardest is you go for an audition and you work your butt off. I mean, just studying for, getting coached
for, going in there. And you could kill it. It could be the best audition you've ever had.
But the reason you don't get it is maybe you're too tall. Maybe you're too short. Maybe they need
some diversity in the show. That's really important these days. So I mean, whatever reason you
you don't get the job, a lot of the time has nothing to do with your talent. So I think that
that's just something that's like hard to, you know, to not beat yourself up over every day.
To be like, you know, I am good enough for this, but I can't take it personal because the reason
I got the job could have absolutely nothing to do with what I actually did in that audition.
No, we talk about a lot of time, like one of the biggest themes of this show is patience and
persistence. And I think a lot of people, I get messages all the time, like, hey, I started this
business three months ago, six months ago, and it's not working. What should I do?
As they keep going, I mean, it's been three to six months.
You're not going to have success that quickly, and you don't deserve success that quickly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
You've got to put in the time.
So it's refreshing to hear.
Like, everyone we interview, they say time, time, a lot of work, like beating through
discouragement and going, going, persistence, patients.
Not listening to Neysairs.
Not listening to what people say.
So, yeah, that's what I was curious to figure out how you got that start and how long it's
been, but it's been a long time.
Yeah, it's been about 10 years.
And I think also for me, I think I'd,
I fall, you know, although I'm, you know, excited and very proud of entourage and having done that movie, but I've worked very, very hard as an actress and I've trained and studied and I just know work-wise, I can't wait to finally have the opportunities come my way that aren't that stereotypical blonde.
But, like, it is what it is for now.
Like, I'm so grateful to be getting called in the room for these particular roles to even be, you know, in the running for it.
But I can't wait till I, people start taking a chance on me for the challenging roles that I know I can.
do you know what I mean? Totally. You seem very authentic and down to earth.
Kind of the opposite of the stereotypical Hollywood actress. So how do you deal with, you know,
catiness and maybe stuff that you're just like, no thank you? Um, I think it's hard not to. I'm
really sensitive. I think it's hard not to like just take all that in. And I think I just,
you know, sometimes you get wrapped up in it and caught up in it and your feelings get hurt. And
then I just need to take a step back and, you know, take a visit home with my family and feel
grounded again and just hang out with, you know, the people that love you the most for all the
right reasons.
And, but yeah, it's definitely hard not to get wrapped up in it and care what people think.
It's definitely a challenge.
It seems cut throat a little bit.
And sometimes the blogging industry can be like that too.
And it kind of like makes me push back on networking.
I'm not the biggest networker and that is kind of part of my industry, but I've kind of like
pushed away from it because it feels cast.
No, it's same. And people will always be like, Sabina, you should go to this party. You should go to this event. And I said, why? There's never going to be a day that I'm going to leave a party after having drinks with some director or producer. And they're going to be like, you know what? I want her in my movie. That's just never going to happen. We're on the same page. The only way it's going to happen is working hard and being good. That's how doors are going to open for me, not at a party or an event. And I think that that's the thing that I've had to really learn and
balance out in my life because when I first moved here, you kind of get that in your head
coming from a town without that opportunity really readily around. Everyone's like,
you got to go and network and go to Sundance and do this. I mean, I never want to go to Sundance
unless I have a real reason to be there. Unless I have a movie there or any of these things.
Like, I don't want to go unless I have a reason to be there. Not that we'd have a movie there,
but that's like, that's like, I just think that we're the same way. Like we're like very like, we're
almost home bodies. We just want to spend time with.
people that we really love and I'd rather put my head down and really work. And if I'm going to be
spending time with anyone, it's going to be the people that are reading my blog or like the audience
and the engagement. That's more important to me than like kind of climbing your way up to the top
through other people. Well, talent's the variable, right? You mean hard work and hard work, but
talents the variable. So like you said, I mean, you're not going to get a role if you don't
have the talent anyway. So if you're just going to these things in networking, a lot of people
try to take that approach in every industry, business, blogging, acting.
But if you don't have the talent, you don't put in the hard work, it's not going to work out that way.
Someone's not just going to put you in a movie because they like the way your personality is.
I mean, don't get me wrong.
If, say, I was at an event and I met somebody who I had some director that I really, you know, we just chatted it up and had, you know, someone is a really nice person.
And then I audition for the movie.
And then I have a call back.
And then I have, you know, and then I'm at a screen test or whatever.
That relationship at that point could possibly help me.
I don't know.
but it's not going to get me in the door.
Like, I've got to get myself to that point.
And I think that's what people, like, fail to notice so often.
I love it.
Sabina is going to tell us all about what it's like dating in Hollywood.
But before that, let's talk about Blue Apron.
So I am basically Mario Battelli in the kitchen now.
I am sprinkling salt.
I am seasoning meats.
I'm whipping up pastas.
I am making sauces.
And it's all thanks to my friends at Blue
apron. They have fresh ingredients and they deliver a beautiful box right to your door, which is

He does do that too.

And you have it on the table.
You're ready to go.
I'm like brownie points like crazy.

Tell us about dating in Hollywood.
Like what is that like?
I can't even imagine.
We live up here a couple times a month.
And it seems like it would be very hard to date in this town.
I have never been single.
I don't know what it's like.
I was single, you know, very recently.
And I was just met the most incredible man.
I mean, I just met this guy and I was like, gosh, I'm not ready to date.
Just got out of a relationship.
And how do you meet him?
Do you meet him through a dating app or do you meet him walking down the street?
How do you meet him?
Sounds so corny.
So I go to church every week.
And I was at stage coach last May, and my boyfriend is in country music.
And a bunch of my friends from church were there, and they are friends with him.
He lives in Nashville.
And everyone was just sitting there, you know, chatting it up.
And he's like, looks at me, and he's like, do I know you from somewhere?
And I really, he did look familiar to me, but I just don't know how to flirt.
And I just felt, that's the classic line.
I don't know how to flirt.
I was uncomfortable.
So I just kind of set it back.
I was like, you look familiar too.
even though I don't really know if you did.
I just was so uncomfortable.
I'm honestly, just never been single.
And he was talking to me, and he just had the most beautiful eyes and the most beautiful smile.
And I was like, I'd get the hell out of here.
And I ran away.
I was like, nice meeting you.
He's like, what's your name?
I'm like, Sabina.
He's like, I'm going to look you up on Instagram.
I was like, okay, bye.
And I literally, like, ran away from him.
And this is who I've been with for about nine months now.
And he's incredible and kind and lovely and just like the most gentle soul in the world.
So opposite of Holly.
one. Yeah. Yeah. He actually hates, he hates the scene. He hates like any of the trendy places. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's kind of a breath of fresh air. That must be good. Speaking of fresh air in social media and Instagram, you took a little break. I did. And we were talking a little bit about it. Why did you take your break? Um, you know, it just, just for a couple weeks, which seems silly, but we get so consumed in it. I noticed I was sitting there. I'd come home and I'd sit. And I'd sit.
on my phone for five or six hours and just go through Instagram and Snapchat and Facebook.
And I was responding to people that aren't a part of my daily life. And I realized me sitting here
on my phone responding to strangers and getting caught up in other people's stories. I wasn't being
present with the people in my life. I wasn't, you know, I was so wrapped up in posting pictures and
capturing moments that I'm, you know, especially became evident over Christmas with my family.
I was just like with the Instagram video and the Instagram pictures and then Snapchat and all this stuff, I just was so consumed in it.
And I realized once the holidays were over, I'm like, wow, I really didn't spend as much time with my family and I didn't value that time with them.
So I said, you know, I'm going to take a little break.
And I'm going to get back on it.
It's kind of unfortunately the business that we're in and I realize how important it is.
Well, it's interesting to talk about because you have like the one side of it where it takes you out of the present moment.
right and it's distracting but then you have the other side of it with the career you're pursuing
you kind of need it and it's now a variable of success which in my life I think it's a good thing
just because I come from that industry but I can understand for some people it's difficult so
how do you balance that now um you know I'm going to be getting back into it I think this
weekend I was like this will be my cutoff I think it's hard because it is so important I mean so
often I'll go to things and people will just straight up ask how many
followers do you have? And I'm definitely not, I mean, I probably post, you know, like twice a month,
but I've really got to step that up because it is important for our industry. It gives people an
inside look of getting to know you in a personal relationship of like, what are you like? What's
your personality like? And I think it's really crucial. I kind of hate it sometimes, but I mean,
it is what it is. And I have to just, you know, play the game, I guess. We were saying before earlier,
the podcast that it feels narcissistic to have to like post pictures of yourself. Yeah. Trust
me, I feel the same way sometimes I'm like, I have to post another picture. But it almost
propels you forward within social media. So it's a double edge sword. That's exactly what it is
because I sit there and I'm like, I look at my page. I'm like, I want to post pictures of like my
niece and my family. But the reality is like no one really wants to see those things. Maybe
once in a while. But I think you'd be surprised. I think it depends on the type of audience you're
trying to cultivate. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, and I'm actually.
She doesn't do, like, you, I feel like don't do, like, you don't try to show your assets to get followers.
Like, you totally could do that.
I mean, sometimes I'm like, I want to put a butt shot up.
Sometimes I want to do it.
But you don't, no, she, you use, the reason that I wanted to interview you is because when I saw you, you, I seem like you have a lot of substance.
And I recognize that through social media.
I love how, I love how you're giving me such a sweet compliment.
And I just shot, like, like, out of the barrel of this interview being like, I was naked in the entourage movie.
Hi, guys.
Nice to meet you.
No, I feel like that's your craft.
Thank you.
You seem like you have a lot of substances as an actress,
and I think that's rare.
I saw that.
You can see that through your social media.
Thank you.
You guys got a follow on Instagram.
What's your handle?
It's just my name, Sabina Goddecki, that complicated.
You have to spell it.
G-A-D-E-C-K-I and like Sabrina, but no R.
Okay, love it.
You guys will see, too, that she traveled to a bunch of places.
Tell us about where you've traveled.
Is it for movies?
Is it for fun?
Is it for both?
This summer was just the best.
I was actually shooting a movie in Vancouver.
for a month with Jesse Metcalf.
So that'll be coming out this year.
His wife's a blogger, right?
I don't know.
I don't know much, but I just know he absolutely loves and adores her beyond belief
and just hearing him talk about her was just like a really special thing to see.
So we were there for the whole month of January shooting up there.
And so that was incredible.
And it's called the Ninth Passenger.
It's going to be coming out this year.
And after that, it was Doug Allen actually who directed entourage.
He had a little party, so to speak.
in Italy and him and his fiance out there.
So we just flew out there, me and a bunch of my friends and spent the summer there or a week
there.
And then I was like, well, I'm already in Italy.
I might as well, I might as well keep it going.
So then I went from the Amalfi Coast to Rome, then Barcelona, and then Ireland.
And then I was like, I probably should get back to L.A. and work sometimes soon.
Those are all places you want to go.
Yeah.
Did you like Ireland?
I loved it.
I want to go to Rome.
I loved Rome.
I went last year for the Entourage movie, so we had a premiere in London, and then we went to Rome right after.
I loved it.
I went twice in one year.
I feel like one time is solid.
Yeah.
Twice in one year was like a lot, but both experiences were so different, but you definitely
should go.
Like once in a lifetime, I think everyone should go for sure.
Okay, so if you read the skinny confidential, you know that I just did a whole wall in our
house dedicated to our wedding photos. And I was feeling like I kind of didn't know what I wanted to do
with them because I didn't want them in the bedroom. Like I didn't want to have like a Sheena Marie
Vanderpump Rules moment. I wanted them to have their own wall in a pretty space in the hallway.
And I wasn't quite sure how to go about it. So I was introduced to Framebridge. And it was
kind of amazing because it was so efficient. Basically, you send your photos in and they just send them
back to you and they're framed and they look perfect. And you. And you're,
You know how when you frame something there's like a hair or a crumb or a piece of sourdough toast like in the frame?
That doesn't happen with Frame Bridge.
It's just a clean.
It looks beautiful.
And they supply these little hooks that you can just hang the frame on the wall.
So we put our wedding photos in our hallway and frame them all different heights.
And doesn't it look cute?
You know what?
It's funny.
I didn't even know it was being done.
You walked in and loved it.
I walked in and loved it.
I saw a giant picture of myself right there.
I was like, well, that looks pretty good.
Oh, my God.
Then I saw some other photos.
I was like, those are okay.
But I highly recommend Framebridge if you're looking to do like a studio wall in your house.
It's easy to use.
It's efficient.
It's affordable.
It's quality.
And they have an expert team there that will custom frame your items in a couple days.
I even got our invite framed.

I feel like for some brownie points, that's a good Valentine's Day gift.
Before we go, I want to hear about your entire story of your whole transition.
So you said that you were a model.
You're in New York.
How do you get from New York to L.A.?
Like tell me how that happens, just for people out there that are listening that maybe want to get into this world.
And how much different is it between the two places?
Because obviously they're both the media capitals of the United States.
States. You got New York, which is a lot of media and
PR over there. And then you have here, which is Hollywood
and movies and actresses. So
what's the big differentiator?
Let's see. Well, when I was living in New York, I really
didn't want to move to L.A. I was like, I just
love the city so much. But
an opportunity came for me to move
and I said, but mine is well take this.
And there's just, there is a lot more opportunity
here for acting for sure. I mean, all the
studios are out here.
I love it. I really, really do love
it out here. It was funny. One of
my first auditions here and just sat there. I felt like I stood out more in New York, just,
you know, my type. So I just, when I first moved here, I was sitting in an audition and I just
looked around the room and I'm like, my God, I look like every single girl in this room. How do
I stand out? And I just started my head sort of spinning and started feeling insecure. I go,
I got to get out of here. I went and sat on the stairs outside of the casting office. And I was like,
you know, I had to remind myself like, I've worked my ass off. I deserve to be.
be here. I'm not like every other girl. And it's funny, I just took that minute to ground myself. And I
walked in the room and I booked my first movie being here. It was a movie I did with Christian Slater.
And it was my first audition here. And it just was like, you know what? I just think having confidence
at yourself and just reminding yourself that even though we might all look very similar being out here,
that everyone brings a little something different to the table. Yeah, I think your personality,
too, is huge. Like, I mean, you can tell like your personality. You're very confident. You have a lot of
strength and warmth, as Michael would say, a compelling person.
A compelling person.
Awesome.
Aww.
I also am dying to know about, like, your wellness tips.
You have a great figure.
Thank you.
If you don't know who this is, you have to Google her.
She's beautiful.
Tell us, like, what do you eat?
What's the day to day?
Are you super healthy?
Are you not so healthy?
I am probably the biggest yo-yo dieter ever.
Like, there'll be, like, six months where I just rage and just eat.
whatever I want and don't work out.
And then there's that day where I wake up and I'm like, shit.
It's all caught up to me, which is basically happened about two weeks ago.
And so these last two weeks I've just been back and just, I love, it's weird.
I just crave shitty food.
I crave pizza, French fries and Doritos.
I would eat McDonald's French fries for every, it's truly my favorite food in the entire world.
And it's all I would eat all day long if I didn't end up getting a fat ass from it.
but I do have to work hard.
It's weird.
My whole family's very, very thin, but I do have to work.
I do have to work at it.
You look great.
The other day, Lauren was dieting.
I don't know what you were doing.
You were like doing some regiment.
But I really wanted in and out.
And I got it.
And then I came home.
But I was like, shit, if I go up with this in and out, she's going to like.
Well, he could have got it for me protein style.
You dick.
So I had it.
I ate it pathetically in my car down in the garage.
I hate to admit it, but it's true.
No, like, then he comes up with the, with the, the soda thing, by the
You know the soda thing that's why he walks up with it?
And I go, did you go to in and out?
Then he hurt right away.
You're like, uh, no.
It's actually funny because my boyfriend's eating very, very healthy right now.
And I'm like, he's like, Sabina, you are a bad influence on me.
I'm like, I'm eating healthy with you.
I'm right there with you.
And it was just one of those days.
I was running around and I just, I drive by McDonald's and I don't know what happens.
It just, I get weak.
And I just went through drive-thru and I got a large fry.
Listen, number one, number two, you're not going to, you know, once in a while,
you got to live.
Listen, let me live.
So I came home and I did the same thing.
I ate the fries in the car.
And do you know how he called me out?
He got in the car a few hours later.
He's like, it smells like fries.
Fries and tears.
Sounds like you.
That sounds like you.
I know it's like, uh, all I ask is that when you go to in and out, you bring me a
protein-style burger with a raw onion.
I know you were like working.
You were working hard, you know?
No, a protein style is fine.
And I ate too.
Okay.
That's great.
That's great.
I'm telling the truth.
I would feel like in Hollywood and in New York, I would feel a lot of pressure from the industry
to be a certain body type and be a certain way.
I mean, you are very thin and you look amazing, but like, do you ever feel like that?
Do you feel that pressure?
Yeah, for sure.
I'd like to say no, but it's definitely, I'd like to say no.
Yeah, I mean, like I said, it was a few weeks ago.
I mean, right after the holidays where I was like, it's pilot season.
It's the busiest time for acting right now.
just was like, this is not, I don't feel my best, I need to get back in shape. And I noticed you
asked me that question about how am I in shape? And I told you, I mean, eat McDonald's fries all day.
But to get back to what you asked me is I have to change it up every day. I get very bored.
So I take a different class every day, Pilates and yoga and spin. I just, I have to change it up.
I just, I just won't go. I try to have a big breakfast because what ends up happening is if I don't
eat breakfast or lunch, then I just crave shit all day long and just eat terribly at night.
But yeah, there's definitely those pressures because, gosh, appearance is basically everything,
unfortunately, in this industry.
A lot of pressure.
I can see even it's kind of trickling almost down to the blogger influencer profession, too.
Sometimes I see that like these influencers that I followed, they get thinner and thinner
and thinner.
I, by the way, there's some people that I've unfollowed for that reason.
Yeah, I actually got a.
an email from a reader that was like, yeah, I've been following like these influencers.
And it's triggering.
It is.
I don't know if it's necessarily anyone's fault.
I just think you have a lot of eyes on you, right?
And when you have that kind of pressure and you have the, you know, the way our society's set up
and people commenting on figures and everything.
Like it can be, you know, it can be tough.
So I feel for the women out there because guys, I mean, I guess guys get a little bit,
but not nearly what women are you.
It's pretty bad. What do you do when you, maybe you don't get this, but what
do you do when you get negative comments? Do you like fight back? Do you delete it? Do you just not talk?
I just realized pretty early on. I mean, back to like I said, when I was hosting that show years ago,
it was exciting at that point. I was like, oh my gosh, I'm all over the internet. This is cool.
And I started Googling my name and you would see literally 200 positive comments. And then that
one negative, it just like, it just cuts you to the core. And I just realized about myself, I can't look at it.
it just don't look.
I don't want to see what people are saying.
I just work hard every day and I just can't Google myself because it just,
it'll hurt my,
one negative thing will, like, really hurt me.
So I just don't look.
It's funny.
I think you and Lauren are similar in that way, but Lauren, there's a site, and I don't
want to give it too much credit, but Lauren showed it to me one time and she came to me
and she was like very, very nervous.
She's like, you know, I've been meaning to tell you this.
And I don't really know how to tell you this, but there's a site.
And it's saying, like, a lot of really mean things.
and I've been really upset about it and I don't know how to tell you.
And I took it as like, oh, good.
Like, finally someone's talking about me.
Like, I'm here.
He, like, loved it.
He was like, he was like, you wanted to, like, print it out and, like, frame it.
But I think, no, I think I had a buddy tell me a long time ago.
He's like, if they're not hating on you, then you're doing something wrong, right?
Because if you're, if nobody's talking about you and there's no buzz, then really who are you
performing for, right?
You got to have that certain demographic that's going to take things personally.
They're going to get angry.
And that's okay.
That's part of it.
But if nobody's talking, you're like, shit.
Yeah.
You know who actually said something to, you know, Mark Wahlberg actually had said something to one of the guys in the movie.
And, you know, it was when the show had just started taking off and they had been really upset.
They're like, God, there's this negative stuff about me.
And he was just sort of kind of venting to Mark about it.
And Mark said, congratulations, buddy, you made it.
Yeah.
I like Mark Wahlberg.
Yeah.
And I think that, like, at the end of the day, it hurts.
but then you realize, like, you've got to consider the source.
And at least it's, I guess, a form of flattery to be even talked about.
Yeah, I agree, though.
Just don't look at it.
You also, like, you've got to deploy empathy in that case.
And when I think about people talking and saying negative things, I actually feel worse for them than for myself.
Because you got to think like, what is it, like, what is it that they're projecting that they're feeling inside?
Exactly.
Why, what are you so upset about that you got to put that negativity out in the world?
And so that's why, you know, there's a, there's a guy.
listen to all the time named Jocko Willink, and he's an ex-Navy SEAL. He was like a steel commander.
He's a really intense guy. He's got a podcast that we like. And he basically said, you can't be
disrespected by somebody who doesn't respect themselves. And when you think about it, it's like,
that's a good one. Yeah, you start to think about the source and you're like, okay, there's an issue
going on where this person's upset and you feel, I don't want to say sorry because you're not feeling
sorry for them, but you're like, that person's hurting. And so when you think about it like that,
It's hard to get upset.
I also was just reading something where it said, and I'm obsessed with this right now for some reason.
I Snapchatted it.
That says that when you're criticizing other people, it's because you're not living your authentic truth.
And they maybe are.
And you're criticizing them for living their authentic truth.
And it's making you kind of deflect.
Couldn't agree more with that.
Because I notice that even with myself, when I'm feeling, I'm just, when you feel good about yourself and just in a great headspace, I feel positive thoughts for other people.
people. But then there's those moments where I feel, I don't know, we all have it when we're feeling
insecure at whatever, a party or whatever the case may be. And then I notice I start to like shit
talk and point out negative things about somebody else. And now I've become aware of that. I'm like,
no, this is me in this moment, just not feeling my best today for whatever the reason might be.
But yeah, I think that that's a hunt. It's always generally a projection of how someone's feeling
about themselves. My dad says a quote all the time. And it's probably from somebody a lot more
prophetic than him and me.
But it's basically along the lines of smile and the world smiles with you, cry and you cry alone.
I like that.
Kevin's shaking his head.
He loves that one.
I like it.
I'm into that one.
So what are the next movies?
Tell us all about what's to come.
Okay.
So the two I did this year, the one I did with Jesse Metcalfe's, it's going to be coming out, hopefully this summer.
It's a horror movie.
It's called The Ninth Passenger.
I can't wait to see it.
I've only seen the trailer so far.
And then I did another one called Welcome to Willits.
Okay.
And we filmed that in Shreveport, Louisiana, and that's got Rory Culkin, McCulley Culkin's brother, Bill Sage, Carucci Trann.
It's a great cast, and I did actually see that one.
I'm really excited about that one.
That was actually one of the most fun projects I've ever worked on.
I played a meth addict.
Oh, my gosh.
Wait, you played a meth addict?
Did you have to lose, like, more weight to play that?
I let my hair grow.
I mean, I just looked like an animal.
I mean, it was crazy.
I let my hair, my roots grew out for like, three.
three months and when I'd go in for hair and makeup, they'd give me acne, they'd give me
basically like sores around my mouth. I mean, I looked crazy and we're filming, this is actually
funny. I just got so used to looking that way and everybody just got so used to me looking
that way and I, you know, for the month that we were shooting. And one night I just left set
with the makeup on, you know, and we all were going to hang out in, you know, our hotel rooms.
And I'm like, let's stop at the gas station and get some drinks, get some wine and stuff.
and I walk into this gas station with this meth makeup on.
And again, the actors that I'm with,
they're just used to seeing me in this way,
and they knew I'm about to shower when I get back.
I walk into the gas station,
and the guy at the counter doesn't skip a beat,
looks at me sincerely, and he's like,
are you looking for the antifreeze?
And I didn't know.
I don't know what that is.
It's for making meth.
I didn't know that.
And I was like, uh, no, I'm looking for.
Wait, there's something you can buy to make meth?
Yeah, meth is made in, you'll mean to give you a whole run on how it's done?
Wait, okay.
Wait, so he asks you if you're looking for that?
So he doesn't even, I mean, I just run in there quickly because everyone's waiting on me.
And I was having the party that night.
And like, I'm going to get the wine and stuff from my hotel room.
So I run in kind of in a frenzy.
And I look at him, I'm like, do you have the?
And he just cuts me off.
He's like, Annie Freeze.
I'm like, uh.
Antifree, Sudafed.
No, I'm looking for the Pino Noir.
Oh my.
And then I go to the car.
I'm like, this guy asked me that.
And then one of the guys is like, yeah, he probably thought you were a real meth addict.
And I'm like, I do look crazy.
If you learn something new every day now, I know how to make math.
We have the bathtub at home.
We're going to start a whole new profession.
Breaking bad.
Okay, so when you're on set and it's not in L.A., it's in Louisiana, what is that like?
I can only imagine that there would be like a buzz.
I love it.
Yeah.
I love it.
I mean, it's just so fun.
You get so close with everybody.
And, I mean, you have these little families and you get to have these experiences.
When I filmed Outlaw Profit, we were in New Mexico.
when I filmed that movie with Christian Slater.
I was in Detroit.
When I did this one, we were in Shreveport, Louisiana.
Oh, this one's called Welcome to Willits.
I don't know if I mentioned that.
But it was, you know, I've never been there.
And we hang out in these small towns and explore karaoke bars.
And it's just so much fun.
Like being on location, shooting a movie is probably the best experience ever.
So now that that's done, are you jumping into something else right away?
Or do you have a little break now?
Well, it's pilot season now.
What does that mean?
I don't know what that.
Oh, okay.
So I know pilots.
but like to explain what that means.
So it's basically all the networks are like casting all their new shows.
So it is basically the busiest time of the year for actors.
And I have, until I know for sure, I can't mention it, but like I've got a couple of things sort of, um,
on hold at the moment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So it's like a lot of auditions and running around.
Yeah, a lot of audition.
I mean, I had seven on Thursday, which is like, it's tough.
Well, also I, you know, between it, because I do the modeling as well.
and then I have the acting, and then I do voiceovers as well.
So any day, some days I have absolutely nothing.
Some days I wake up and I can't make it to Santa Monica to my agency to do a voiceover.
So I've got my microphone.
And in between auditions, I mean, people think it's like this glamorous life and I like bust my ass.
So this was actually last Thursday.
I basically woke up.
I had one at 10 a.m.
Left there was changing fully in my car, just changing like, you know, pull over on the side of the road.
But then I had a voiceover recording that on my microphone, editing it in the car, sending it over.
I mean, it's such chaos this time of year, but I'm grateful for it.
I mean, thank God I could be sitting home doing nothing.
That's amazing.
That's a lot of work.
It's a hustle, it's for sure.
It sounds like my, chaotic.
It's always something new.
You have to be a jack of all trades.
Okay, so what is your dream role?
Like, what's, if you could pick any movie, what do you want to play?
I just, I think, not that I want to keep playing meth addicts, but I think,
think that was one of the most rewarding things, I think, for me, because something along those
lines where I could really transform if I had to lose, you know, 20 pounds or gain 50 pounds,
something that I could really...
Like, method acting?
Yeah, like, I just would love to be anything but myself, anything but what I'm generally
stereotype for being.
So for me, a role of that sort is just would make me so happy.
But, I mean, listen, I'm not going to complain that I'm going in for what I'm,
I am currently going in for, but that would be
kind of my dream role for sure.
You are so interesting. You're so adorable.
It's so nice to meet you. Thank you for having me.
I can guarantee you're going to be huge,
not that you already are, but you're going to crush it.
Thank you. Your work ethic is very inspiring.

All of my handles are all the same.
So it's Sabina, G-G-D-E-I-N-A.
And then that Polish last name, G-A-D-E-C-I.
And the movies coming out, the two one more time?
It's Welcome to Willits.
And the ninth passenger, both coming out this year.
I'm very excited.
