The following podcast is a Dear Media production. 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 along for the ride. Get ready for some major realness. Welcome to the skinny confidential, him and her.

Aha. I came out here as an adult. You know, 30s, full grown, out here. And a lot of people say, oh, I'm going to give myself a time limit. A lot of people do that. I'm going to give myself five years. And if it doesn't happen then. And I was like, well, it's not a time thing, but I will do this.

If I'm giving 100% and I'm not cracking this nut, then I better find something else. And every time I would reevaluate myself, like, I was there two or three years, whatever. And I'm like, I'm giving 100%. The answer was always no. There's the beach. Let's go play volleyball. Ball, three days have gone by, and I'm having so much fun in Southern Cal, I haven't done anything for my career, I'm just hanging out. When I started to get close to giving 100%, or every

day at least doing something for your career, then stuff started to happen. Hello, everybody, welcome back to the Skinny Confidential, him and her show. This episode was a fun one with none other than Oscar Nunez. Many of you may be familiar, especially Office fans with Oscar's work on the office where he played Oscar Martinez. He's also won an Emmy, two Saturdays. He's also won an Emmy, two awards and an Alma Award, a TV Land Award and an Impact Award. So he's done a lot in the space. We had a ton of fun talking about the ins and outs of becoming an actor, what it's like to break through in any career, tenacity, all the things. For office fans out there, we also talk about The Office. Lauren and I are huge Office fans. We actually watched all of the Office seasons

when we first got together. When we were first dating, we binge watching them. So having Oscar in the office was a little bit surreal. We also filmed some fun parodies around the office. So again, And for people that are fans of the office, which I know is probably many of you out there, or just fans of Oscar in general. This episode was a fun one. Again, there's a lot in here. And we had a blast. Oscar Nunez, welcome with the Skinny Confidential, him and her show. This is the skinny confidential, him and her.

Oscar is in our office. The girls put him to work already. Isn't that kind of like a trip? It's a trip to me because when Michael first tried to start dating me, Told you this in the... I was like, I don't know about this guy. We'll see.

He put on the office for me. And I was like, wait, this guy's funny. I fell in love with my husband while watching that show. Like, I correlate that show.

And I'm sure you've like heard what people are big fans of through the office. It's so funny you say that because he was out there and I did not tell, we didn't even talk about this. And I said we,

when I was courting you, we would watch, we would binge the office. You guys, you're welcome. You, Welcome. That's free.

That one's free. That one's free. We go to conventions, some times, and people come up to us, and they'll have a baby in a carriage, and they say, you know, when we were in labor, we had the office on the loop. So the baby was born to the office TV, and it's happened more than once. People proposing front of us, people have tattoos. It's intense. It's the show. You were going to say the baby was born while they were watching the office.

They were having sex to the office. Oh, I'm sure that's happened too. Yeah. I'm sure that's happened. People, some people watch and they love it, whatever, whatever, whatever, whatever. Some people have it on as a comfort background thing all the time. Like a sleep thing. It's bananas, yeah.

It is sort of like a comfort. That's a great word for it. That and then in previous generations, maybe it was Seinfeld. Like there's certain shows that are light enough, funny enough, but also relatable enough. Yeah. It's also the kind of show that Usher, you into adulthood, like you're 12 or 13, and you're like, this is cool. I get the show. Some jokes I'm getting, some I'm not, doesn't matter. You know, it's the show. Like, for me,

it was Monty Python that you're not a little kid anymore. You're not watching cartoons. You're like, I'm going to watch something funny. And you're like, oh, this show's a little risque, but my parents are letting me watch it. And, you know, it's cool. Did you always know you wanted to be an actor? Was Monty Python something that directed you to acting? I always knew I wanted to do something in comedy. Whatever it was doesn't matter. But then you wanted to do something like that. And what's the first big break? Like even like something that like maybe we wouldn't even know like something way back when you were yet really young. That that I said oh that's really cool. I like that. No, something that like can't like sort of like was your first sort of rub with fame. Oh with fame.

Yeah. Gee, I don't, you know, I we, you know, you go to movies of course. And I remember, My dad taking my sister and me, myself and I, all three of us, to the ballet. And that was a big deal. I'm like, well, I'm like, but I liked it. I'm like, this is in Broadway. This is like ballet. He liked ballet, took us to ballet. I was like, oh, this is cool.

But as far as like fame, it must have been New York City, but I was, I wasn't working with, when I started, we were doing improv in New York City. And no special guest would come in. it was just a bunch of people doing theater in the village. No one famous was with us. We were just doing it for the fun of it. That didn't happen until I came out here. So what was your first maybe show or your first break that you had?

It happens slowly. There's never like, but to answer your question, now I, when I was in the groundlings, Carol Burnett did come out to see a show. And Fay Dunaway came out to see a show. And I was like, oh, and Carol Burnett's very cool because when I was little, her show was an inspiration, Harvey Corman in particular. This guy on her show, his name was Harvey Corman. And he was a comedic actor. And I'm like, oh, that guy, whatever that guy is doing, I want to do that.

How much groundwork did you have to put in to even star on television? Like what are, you mentioned the growlings. How do you say it? Groundlings. Groundlings. Yeah. Here in L.A. I don't know.

I was just talking about. Yeah, what's all the background? Down Melrose. It's right down the block. Well, you know, down there. Tell us the nitty gritty of what happens before you even catch a break. It's just life. It happens different for different people.

You know, but my particular path is years and years. So you better enjoy the ride because there's no, there's no. I came out here as an adult. I wasn't like, I'm 16. I'm tap dancing. And someone's going to see him. No, I was in my 30s, full grown out here. And a lot of people say, oh, I'm going to give myself a time limit.

A lot of people do that. I'm going to give myself five years. And if it doesn't happen then. And I was like, well, it's not a time thing, but I will do this. If I'm giving 100% and I'm not cracking this nut, then I better find something else. And every time I would reevaluate myself, like I was here two or three years, whatever. And I'm like, are you giving 100%? The answer was always no.

There's the beach. Let's go play volleyball. Three days have gone by. And I'm having so much fun in Southern Cal. I haven't done anything for my career. I'm just hanging out. I haven't a good time. It's like when I started to get close to giving 100%,

or every day at least doing something for your career, then stuff started to happen. So what were you doing before then to make a living? Like when you first came out here and you were an adult and you needed to get by because LA is not the cheapest place to live obviously. No. Teachers aid. I painted for a while.

Painted homes. Waiting tables, babysitting. You were just doing odd jobs to make ends meet to live in this city while you were kind of... While you're doing the same thing. While you're going to auditions and yeah, and trying to get the quote-unquote big break or whatever. When I landed the office, I was babysitting.

and catering. Wow. Talk to us about that. That's cool. Yeah, it was cool. It was very cool. How did someone even find you that? Did you know it was going to be

the success that it's become? No, but as soon as we started, I was like, oh, this is really good. Yeah. The day that I auditioned for the show was a really good actor's day because I had four auditions that day. And that's a good day.

You're like, oh my God, I'm really a lot of auditions today. That's cool. And I think it was the fourth audition of the day, So by then I didn't care. So I had I got auditioning because I, you know, just was very relaxed. I'm like, I'll just get this over with. And, yeah, and I got a callback.

And then I got two or three callbacks. And then we shot the pilot. And then I met Kate Flannery, who was also waiting tables. And we kept checking in on each other like, are you quitting your job yet? And the show was weird. It was like they picked up not a full season. They just picked up like four or five episodes. And I'm like, are you quitting yet?

She's like, no, not yet. We don't know. And then finally they ordered the whole season. I'm like, are you, she's like, I'm leaving my job. And I'm like, me too. And we quit our jobs at the same time. It was really cool. When you were starting that show, was there someone on there that had not broken out that

that you knew was like going to break out? None of us had broken out. Only Steve was. It was still early for him too a little bit, yeah? Yeah, but he was already on the daily. show and he had done Anchorman and I'm like oh this guy's hilarious.

And everyone else I didn't know. But I remember seeing rain on six feet under and I'm like oh that's that guy from six feet under. And then once we started performing and I got to, I'm like oh there's a lot of talent here. I'm like everyone's going to do

fine after the office. I think that's why also the show is so good is it such an ensemble and it feels and I'm I'm sure you've heard this a hundred times, but it feels like it's an actual office with people actually working together. Yeah, it looked that way, it felt that way. It was ridiculous.

Wasn't it filmed in an actual office building? Was that, is that true, or is it a set? The pilot was. We were in an office. And then when we got picked up, they took pictures of that office and they built the same exact replica in a studio. So that was fun. Where is the actual building?

In Van Nuys. Oh, it's in Van Nuys. Yeah, we weren't at NBC Universal, we were in Van Aries. Okay. Yeah. Because you filmed a lot around the building, too, so I was always wondering where the location was.

What's something that would shock office fans? Like, give us some behind the scenes. It was fun. I was, it was fun when the ladies got pregnant. What a strange statement, but it is. Because they're like, do we hide their belly?

And then we had to find creative ways of, you know, hiding their baby bumps. I guess. And, but it was, it was, it was very cool, the people that wanted to go on the show and all the directors who were on the show that we got to meet and some of them came back more than once, John Favreau, oh God, a bunch of others. That was really cool. Who are some of the people that guest starred that were major?

A lot of people. I know, but who's, I want to know Oscar's favorites. Well, towards the end, everybody wanted to be on the show. But at the beginning, it was just. it was just regular no one was famous you know who we had on we had on Amy Ryan and Amy Adams

that's cool yeah I remember that I remember Amy Ryan was selling purses and she wasn't known yet and that was cool and she was on for a couple of episodes is it the success of the office do you attribute a lot of it to just rinse and repeat you guys showing up day after day doing the same

thing with the same layout like it seems like you guys did a really good job of creating this routine of a show. Is that how it was behind the scenes Monday through Friday? Same time, same space, same off. Like work.

But I was in Toronto shooting people of Earth, beautiful town, by the way. I kept walking around. I'm like, whatever. And there's like three universities there and it's cool. Toronto has a lot of like Pakistani and Indian people

and all these Indian and Pakistani bros kept seeing me in the street. They're like, yo, it's an Oscar, whoa, and I kept getting ganged up. Yo, yo, everyone's like so. I'm like, you know, I've got a little time in my hands. Let me go back and watch. Because I only watched it when it aired.

I don't go back. None of us did. So I went back and watched the whole thing over again, like a regular person. I watched the whole season. And out of the nine seasons we did, there were two shows that were like okay, like mediocre.

And the rest were really funny. I'm like, oh my God, it was a funny show. So the writing was really funny. And I think that just people are like blown away by it. It's like flea bag or like it's a really well-written show. And then we just, we didn't have to fumble. We just had to show up and do our jobs. Good people, funny, but it starts with the writing.

Is there ever any ad-libbing? Do you guys ever just like? Yeah, yeah. So sometimes you just go off. A little bit, yeah. How close to, yeah, I was going to, That's along the line of question. How close is the character you play on the office to you personally?

Like how much of that do you have to act and how much of it is improv and how much you have to stretch versus just being yourself? I think it's pretty close. They started having me saying actually a lot. I'm like, that's funny. Who thought of that? And the writers are like, oh, you say that. I'm like, oh, all right.

And then they named you Oscar. That was already. He came to look at your face. You know there's a bunch of us named our real names, right? No. Angela? Yeah. I didn't know that.

Phyllis? Didn't know that. Creed, it's his first and last name. That's how nuts that is. And myself. So there's four of us. You know what I think, too, about it is, is, and I just realize this, is that everyone, at least the jobs I've had, has the dynamics that you guys had.

Like, Creed reminds me of our producer. of Taylor? Oh yeah. Taylor? I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Taylor's a young man. Yeah. Maybe not from a physical standpoint.

I hate to rig it to you, Oscar. Taylor is creed. Okay, Taylor's type of guy he'll tell you like. Jade's dying, laughing. Jade is crying. She knows the truth. Jade is, Jade is, what's the girl's name that sits to the front desk? Pam?

Yeah, you're Pam. That's good. Yeah. It's a good one. Yeah. Who's Michael? Uh-oh. I think I'm Michael.

Yeah, you might be. I think I'm Michael. That's wonderful. It's, you know, I worked in an office where the boss is there and you're like, just let us work. Please leave us alone. What are you doing here? Why are you even here? And they're creating chaos?

Yeah, they're like meeting. Let's have a meeting. For what? Why? Nothing good comes from the meeting. We're working already. Just leave us alone. It's the best.

It's the best setup. Yeah. Yeah. Boss manager. That's why I think, though, it was so funny is that the dynamics were so relatable. Just like Seinfeld, just like friends. You can find everyone in the character. And then you also with the rank, you always have, there's like somebody that's like,

they're taking it way too seriously. You know, you're like, we're just at work, man. Like we can do a good job. Everyone has to fill it. Dwight. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, Taylor's a little Dwighty, though. No, Taylor, the reason I think he's like creed is because he's one of those guys where he will tell you something happened, but it's not the full story. And over time, more and more comes out. You're like, what is going on here? Yeah, you left a lot out, Taylor. You left a lot. You left a lot out.

Taylor, you walked into the store and everybody was weird to you and I'd, but you weren't wearing pants. And you didn't tell us that when you told the story the first time, Taylor. There's different degrees of truth. Or like when you ended up in a tent encampment in Las Vegas. Yeah, and he's like, I don't know what happened. I'm just like laying in the streets in Vegas. And I don't know.

There's like, well, there's a lot that happened before you got there. Yes. Before he's laying in the streets in Vegas. He woke up in someone's tent. Taylor's got a... Was it Burning Man? Where was he? No, it wasn't Burning Man.

It was not burning man. It was in a parking lot. He woke up in someone's tent in the parking lot. It happens. Her stories evolved. My stories. My stories evolved? I never was ever in tents.

You were laying on the Bear Street. Oh, sorry, the Bear Street. Yeah. That's the Bears. Anyways. Did you take penicillin? Are you okay? He's not okay.

Okay. That part of the story will come eventually. Yeah, so he is like Creed. But I think that's why the office was so iconic is because you could see yourself or your friends or your coworkers in each of the characters. That's right. And that was really special.

That kind of show doesn't come along. What's that book Ryan Holiday wrote? I always say it wrong. Perennial. Perennial seller. It's a perennial seller. Perennial. How do you say it?

Perennial. It's something that is just, it will sell and be watched or be viewed for long after. point that it's It never feels out of like sorts to watch it. Kids are watching it now. So people come up all the time and they're like, I've watched, you know, Tina, people start watching it like,

I don't know, 11, 12, 13. And so there's always a new batch of people because it's on all the time, you guys. It's on all the time. Well, think about it like how many shows people like, yeah, to your point. Like there's a lot of shows and a lot of them like they're like, you watch them for a couple seasons or series and then you're done. When you, when you can'tapult to fame from that because you've got to be recognized. I did catapult.

How did you know? I didn't take an escalator. I have a... I catapulted. Well, with that, I mean, to go from waiting tables, you said catering, and then you're like famous. It feels like overnight. I'm sure it didn't feel like that to you.

What was that like? You go out to eat. Is it annoying? Did you love it? What was the vibe there? It happened over time. And I, very rarely do I find it annoying. It's fine.

I like it. Just not when I'm eating. Yeah. But people come up. It's all good. Bearing mind, it's not overwhelming. People don't come to me like, I'm not Tom Cruise. That's a whole other level.

I'm okay. I don't need protection. I don't need bodyguards. But so far, yeah, it's pretty easy. Because we've had other actors on the show, and some of them don't have the perspective. You know, like some that have maybe done a show. And people come up to them for that show for years and years and years. Like some of them don't have the same reaction that you have.

Someone get a little irritated. Like, do you ever get annoyed? Like, I'm talking about the office and people are such huge fans. You are you more grateful for these things? You know, everyone has a bad day, but generally, I mean, I was, I mean, it's just, it's who you are. You know, everyone's different. But I remember listening to, I think it was Mark Marin had a podcast, right, WTF. And are you taking pictures of me?

Just a little video. He had Henry Winkler on. Oh, the Fonds. The Fonds. And Henry Winkle was talking, whatever, blah, blah, blah. And Mark Manners was like, is there a thing, a philosophy or something that you live by or whatever? And he said, tenacity and gratitude. And I was like, oh, that struck a nerve with me.

He verbalized the way, like, kind of like my philosophy, be great or try to be grateful. Even if you're not, try. And then that'll get the gratitude thing going. some days you're you know whatever but try to be grateful but be tenacious no one's going to owes you anything or is going to give you any you have to go out therein and if it takes being a little annoying that's okay too you know another celebrity that I heard um on something say that is Kim Kardashian she said that she does she does not get mad when people come up to her she's grateful for it she loves it she's so appreciative of it Kim Kardashian who is this Kim Kardashian who is this

Who is this? She's an author? She's not a U-L-L-Gro. She's an astronaut. She's everywhere. She's whatever she wants to be. But she did say it's annoying when she wants to just get a churro and be with no makeup. Is she recognized a lot?

I bet she is, right? I mean, as an astronaut, I think she is. People who know her, know her. And she's got a billion followers on the Instagram thing. Yeah. Yeah. I think so. Yeah, she has a billion fans.

She's got to be recognized everywhere. Yes. She can't get a churro. By her people. She can't get a churro in peace. But you can't get a churro in peace. There's no way that you can get a churro in peace. After being on the office and being the character that you wore, there's no way.

You've got to get, people have got to say things to you every single day. I have a churro guy. A delivery post names? They come over, yeah. Okay. I get what she's saying. I haven't had a churring a long time. But yes, sometimes you need, you know, when we go to Disneyland, I just can't go.

we have to get a person. Like a plaid. A what now? A plaid? A plaid. One of the guys, the Disney characters. Yes, a plaid. That's right. Yeah. And they'll take you around. Oh, they call them a plaid. Yeah, we get one of those people.

Is that what it's called? It's wonderful. It's wonderful. Yeah, I love it. And how is it when you're with your daughter? She's 11. Yeah. You're at Disneyland. Yeah. People are screaming your name. No, we have a plaid. No, no one's screaming. No one's screaming. Okay. If I saw you, I'd say Oscar.

People, a lady came over and the, and the. And the plaid was like, it's family time. And she's like, oh, but she looked at her group down there. It's him. I am someone who is obsessed with honey. I put honey on everything. I get it from the farmer's market. It's raw.

And one thing that I never gave up ever. Every single day I have a piece is bread. I love bread. There is this brand. It's called hero bread. They also have buns, but I'm just a bread fan. It's fluffy. It's delicious. And it has no net carbs, zero grams of sugar, and fewer calories. Plus, it also has protein and fiber. And that is like a dream. Something that has protein and fiber and no net carbs, sign me up. So how I used their bread is I made a delicious BLT sandwich. Okay, I did avocado mayo, a little bit of mustard,

pepperosini, lots of pepperosini, I hope I'm pronouncing that right. Lettuce, tomato, bacon from the farmer's market. I even drizzle a little honey on top. I toasted the bread and I made this for me and Michael. It was so good on this bread. And what I noticed is it's got the perfect crunch. It tastes so delicious. It's like melt in your mouth, guilt-free. It's fluffy, delicious. And I just think that if you can do bread this way, this is a great way to do it, especially if you're on the same journey as me,

which is tightening up. I'm still in the process of losing a couple more pounds. And I think this is a great way to do it. Keep the carbs out of summer without compromising flavor with Hero Bread.

What is your favorite memory from filming with the office team?

What's something that just is a really special moment? There's a couple. At the beginning, we didn't know each other, so it was cool. Well, first of all, seeing Angela on the set, I didn't know she was hired. I don't know if it was the third episode or whatever. I don't know. But I'm there in my stupid office thing.

And she walks saying, and I'm like, you're, she's like, I'm on the show Oscar. I'm like, what? So, Angela and I have known each other for years before the office. Yeah. So, how did you guys know each other? From the groundlings, I think, from doing improv around town. So to see someone that you know when you're broke-ass poor and we're both, she was working for 1-800 dental, whatever, and I was doing whatever I was doing.

And to meet on the set on the same show when you're like, you're cast together. And it's, it's not a guest. It's like a regular show. We're both regular. That's like a dream. So that was cool And then the two of us are there And then there's this guy playing Kevin Bryan

Who I only knew from a commercial That where he played a deli guy And I knew he's funny I'm like this guy's funny And Brian and I made friends And then I think it was the third episode And Brian and I are talking

We're like blah blah blah Where are you from And it's that honeymoon period It's so cool, it's the best And he's like Oscar This is a good show I'm like yeah it is

is and then we're like we're like you know what we're not crazy like in four seasons we can be getting emmys right am i crazy and he's like no no no you're not crazy because the quality was that good and it happened sooner than that how many emies did the show get in total i don't know but we got sag awards we got sag awards we got emmy awards and also when you start going to the golden globes and stuff it's funny because you become a little jaded eventually but at the beginning when it's happening the first one and you're like you're wearing a tux but you have brown shoes because you don't

have the proper attire world we're a little mismatched but we're going to these things that's the best time and you're like oh my god when the show started to be successful and it had a ton of success and the cast basically stayed pretty much the same almost all the way through

I know Steve left and everything but most of the cast was there the whole time how do you guys manage did you guys get along the whole time how do you manage egos How do you kind of stay? Or is it just one big happy family? It's fine.

There's no, we weren't teenagers. We weren't in our 20s. And if we were, maybe it'd be different. Because people are young, you know, your brain. How old are you, Jade? Jade's brain is still developing. Taylor? 37.

Taylor's creed, though. So his is still. It's devolving. Taylor's brain reached its peak at 35 and now it's devolving. Which brain? Oh, poor Taylor. But you guys, what I'm trying to say is we were all adults and we're like, we're getting professional.

Yes. And we're getting, you know, you're paying all your bills and your mortgage only on acting. So everyone's behaving. No one's crazy. People sound like they're just so grateful to be there and to be a part of such a great cast. Also, when your boss is Greg Daniels and the number one on the call sheet is Steve Carell, then you can't act up because they're normal people. They're normal, empathetic, nice men.

And so if Steve was crazy, if Steve was doing cocaine and misbehaving and just being crazy, then anyone could be crazy because our lead is crazy, so there's lots of drama and who knows what's happening on the set. But they're normal men, so you have to, if you were inclined to do that, you have to behave. Well, I think even for him, to your point, he was known, but obviously become much more about it.

But he was also older when he kind of started to have that. I imagine that that, that was hell. He wasn't some child actor that kind of came. No, Steve Correll, I believe when we started filming was 62. Uh-oh, I should have not said that. Oh, you guys. 85?

You're right. We were all he had a family, yes. And is he like how he is from your perspective on the it seems like he doesn't, he doesn't, he's an amazing actor, but it seems like he doesn't actually have to stretch that far out of who he is. Like he's kind of just that funny

down to earth guy. He's funny. He's funny. He's nothing like Michael Scott, but he's very funny. And we knew what a good actor he was. We knew from working with him on the office. He's one of the most chaotic characters I've ever seen on TV. I'm obsessed with it. Him and I together, if we dated as his character, would have a fucking field day with chaos. You would date Michael Scott? I like, well, I don't think I would date. Jade's laughing. Look at Jade over there laughing. I don't know that I would date him. I'm just saying like if he took me on a date, it would be like really chaotic. It would have fun. It would have fun.

You have a good time? Yeah, I'd have a good time. Gun to your head. Switch gears. What's that? Don't hit it. Someone hit her gun. Gun to your head, Oscar.

This is a question you have to answer. There's a gun to your head. Who is the funniest you can include yourself on the whole cast? Can only pick one. You mean as a character? Well, either. Let's do a character and in real life. Oh, that's a just for fun, I'll answer because

I would have loved if not if I didn't have to play myself I would have loved to play either Michael or or Dwight those characters are so fun true yeah Dwight Dwight's character is just as fun to play as Michael's God yeah no it's bananas what about in real life what about in real life who do you think's the funniest real life off the most funniest off the most funniest offset you know we're funny we're a funny group but everyone's pretty normal and, you know, it's so tacky. I'm not going to pick myself. I'm not going to do that.

No, that's wrong. It's wrong. And it's wrong. And it shouldn't be said. I don't even want to think it. I don't even want to think it. So you're the funniest. Dwight is the funniest character.

Steve Carell is pretty funny, I guess. He has coaches and he has a guy who comes in and just helps him do pratfalls. And that's not fair. We all can't afford a person. Pratt fall coach. No, you can't afford a pratfall coach. Brian's pretty funny. Angela's hilarious.

Kate's funny. It's just a great cast. They're all funny. Is Creed really funny in real life? He's nuts. Yeah. And don't tell him he's not funny because then he'll be depressed and we have to help. Creed would be fun to go on a date with too.

If you say so. Listen, Creed was in a rock band since he's like 19 years old. Was it called Creed? No, it was called the grassroots. Oh, I know that. Do you know this? No, I didn't know this. When we're done here

You want to play a song Please download the grassroots He was like 19 or 20 He's a real rock star From back then He can play electric guitar Like no one's business Wow

So created another life before this Anyway That's pretty cool Did the costumes get exponentially More expensive as you went on Or were they Did you guys stay like Very like down to earth?

They tried to stay down to earth Naturally things are going to happen People are going to look a little better That stuff is just par for the course. But we try to stay, you know, close to the vest. Everyone always gets a little hotter as the seasons go on. It's just inevitable. Like I have to say, you're looking hotter now than you ever looked.

You look a little hotter as you go on. You don't have to say that, but you're honest, and you see what's in front of you and you speak it. And good for you. You look a little, everyone looks a lot. That's part of dear media. Honesty. For anyone who's listening, who's aspiring young actor,

actress. What advice would you tell them? It sounds like one of your pieces is that you want to give yourself a timeline and give 100%, but even more than that from a more micro level. What are the tips? We, I, all of us don't know how to end this sentence. Words are coming out, one in front of the other. Listen, do you know who Jack Nicholson is? Yeah. Jack Nicholson was on the Johnny Carson's show a long time ago, a long time ago, and Johnny asked them the same question, but I will get to an answer because I'm not, but Jack Nicholson said, if they need advice, they're not going to. And Johnny's like, really, he's like, yeah, they'll find, you basically will find a way if you're desperate enough and crazy enough to do this. If not, there's a billion

other things, but let's say you want to do this. You know, get training, of course, and all that stuff. Surround yourself with like-minded people, and you don't have to wait for the phone. called you don't have to wait for uh for stuff here i'll tell you this Steve Martin said this and this is for real be be be good enough that they can't ignore you so don't worry about what's on the outside find whatever you want to do here's another one dolly parton says also and this is for life find out who you are and double down on it that's from dolly parton that's good stuff she doubled down she whatever you are find out who you are and double down she she might have tripled down Yeah. And try, yeah, you know, it's all platitudes. Of course, enjoy the journey. Don't be so focused on, on results or on I want to become famous. Just find out what you like doing and what you're passionate about and concentrate on that. And, and yeah.

I think that Jack Nicholson advice, it wasn't advice, but I think I think what he said is so true. There's so many people that are using, I need to get advice. I need to get a college education. I need to go to the. actor's school as an excuse not to execute. You know what Jack Nicholson also said. That's right. Well, you'll tell us. He said, never give anybody your best advice. They won't take it anyway. He said that.

Never give anyone your best advice, Johnny. They won't take it anyway. He said that. That's true too. Yeah, he said it. Jack Nicholson would be a good person to interview. He's got some great quotes. He's not going to.

He wouldn't. He's not coming on. He wouldn't. He's, he, no, I don't think so. If you guys go up to where he is, he might. There's some people like that. that say if we come up and make the trek. We do make some treks sometime.

Well, now you tell me. What am I doing here? You should have requested. Then we wouldn't have put you in the chair. We wouldn't have frisd you when we got here. God, I had to meet Jade and Taylor. The whole team, how did you go? My God.

You had to see our office. But, you know, it's a rare. I mean, we like to, we like to kind of just sit here and not move much. How, I have to ask you this question. How do you manage to stay so down to earth in Hollywood? It's like what is what is the unlock you're around all different kinds of people you've been

exposed to a lot how do you stay down to earth because you're very easy going you're very from what I've seen you're very easy to talk to how do you do that I don't know I think um I you know I don't know how people allow themselves to become weirdos and crazy don't believe what people say about you have your friends that you you know what you know what happens. sometimes, and I'm not going to name any names, but some people become really huge, and then they surround themselves with yes people, and they have, but these are people who are huge. But you know what I'm saying? People who, like, if you criticize me, you can't hang out with me or whatever. Yeah, I mean, doing what we do, we get to meet all sorts of really interesting people and not just

celebrities, but just, you know, all walks of life. And sometimes those kind of people that you're eluded who will come in, and there'll be a team of 10 people. And I, sometimes I actually feel so I'm like there's all these people around. I'm like what are all these people what are they doing? Also the most famous people come in with like one or no one just themselves the most which is interesting. The most famous people that I've ever interviewed come in with one person like maybe like a PR person yeah or by themselves. You know a lot of that a lot of staying normal and all that all that's all that is in you when you're little with your parents give you self-esteem and you you like being liked but

your life doesn't depend on how many people like you or how your friends feel about you and you know you could have friends who, who, you know, I'm thinking about this now because I have a daughter, 11-year-old daughter and it's like, you know, yeah, she's your friend, August, but she also says, sometimes she says mean things about you and that's okay and that's life

and sometimes friends are tricky. There's really nice friends and there's people who are your friends who are like, why am I their friend? They're nice to me sometimes, but sometimes they're not. And you have to learn how to, how to, you know, maneuver that and always know that, you know, I always tell, let's see, there's 20 people. They're not all going to like you no matter what you do.

Whatever you do, there's five people may not. So don't worry about that. Don't worry about, be true to yourself. You know, you know, mommy and daddy love you. You're loved here. And just be aware of that when you go out. Don't put so much of yourself worth in the eyes of other people. Especially girls when it comes to men's eyes.

and what they think of you. Go screw yourself what you think of me. What do I think of you, fella? Yeah. Right? I say you're lucky

to be in my presence. Thank you. Tell her that. She said, they're lucky to be in her presence. I know, but they have to, a lot of things

they have to figure out themselves. I know. They're like, oh, dad. Listen, for both of you guys, it's going to be hard. Michael has a daughter,

too. We have a daughter and it's going to be hard. We're going to become Amish when we're about 1213. Okay. Let's go. We'll go to the same camp

and bring the micro. you'll have the podcast there. Until Rum's Springett comes. We're going to go high in the hills. They don't watch TV? Our kids? The community we're going to live in. No, no, there's no, there's no connection to the out.

We're just going to be in one disconnected community. We have to act out the office for them. Why don't you guys do an act-out play? Why don't you guys do like an office Broadway, please? Why don't you gift me a giraffe? It would never happen. I don't know. I don't know.

Did you guys walk away? Like, I feel like you walked away at the right time. Seinfeld did this too. He walked away at the right time before it jumped the shark. Yeah. And was that strategic or was it just on accident? How did that happen? Both.

Our contracts were up. Steve did seven seasons. Okay. Right. Steve's contract was for seven years and it was up. So his contract's done after seven years. Now, everyone else for some reason, we had two more years on all our contracts. So Greg Daniels was like,

Let's do two seasons and we're out, you guys. If they say, oh, let's do, let's renew Steve's, this hypothetical now. So let's renew Steve's concert. Oh, contract. Oh, whoever the lead is, doesn't matter if it's Correll, whoever the lead is. Let's renew their contract for another seven years. Now they got to renegotiate. Now that person's way more famous.

So his people are going to say, now you're worth a lot more. So now we start going into and now our contracts are up. So now we're more famous. So now you're renegotiating with people who have a lot more power. So the budget automatically is going to go, cool, which is cool. But no one wanted to do that. And Greg Daniels like,

you guys are we done and we're like, we're done and he's like, I'm done too. So we're done. It seems like peaceful. Yeah. I think so too. How many,

it was fine. Yeah, I mean, not to throw shade at any shows, but some of these shows are like, all right, like enough. Like, enough.

And I just want to be like, I'm so invested, but like I need an end. here. And it's in reruns. Go watch it again. It's fine. The day that the office ends, what do you wake up on Monday morning? Like what do you do? Do you go read a book? Do you go jump in the ocean? Do you meditate? Do you start to look for work right away? Like what's the, what do you do the day, the Monday after the office ends? I think we chilled. But I'll tell you this. When Steve and for for for me the office ended when Steve left, then we did two seasons without him.

and it was still the office, but something else. But when Steve left, it was a big deal. It was that week, Will Ferrell was there. Oh, my God. So he was there to kind of... Big Bridge. Buffer it, yeah. So we were laughing a lot and crying a lot.

And there was a lot of crying, and it was banana. It was so emotional when Steve left. And then we did two seasons without him, and we got to work with Kathy Bates and James Bader, and it was amazing. And after that, I think we probably went on a little vacation. I don't remember, but we chilled out for a while. Yeah.

And what are the things that you're passionate that you're working on now? There's a, what is it? I'm going to go do improv in San Francisco on Friday. And then I'm coming back and doing something for a friend, which he's doing a pilot to present. And I've got work coming up that's happening like in September and stuff that I'm shooting. And I'm excited about all that.

I can't go into too many details, but it's very exciting. If you guys don't know, I'm a huge tennis player. I have been playing since I was little, but recently kicked it off again about a year and a half ago. And Michael and I play all the time. I seriously think it's strength in our marriage. And it's been fun to not only play, but to dress up for the moment. I love dressing for the occasion.

So one of the dresses that I wear for tennis that I've worn throughout the whole summer is by this brand called Roebuck. The dress that I like comes in four different colors and I actually like it so much I got it in all four colors. So it's the demiactive dress. My favorite color is midnight black just because it's simple, but they also have like a purple and a navy and the willow green. If I were actually to get one of those colors, though, I would get the Navy because I'm just having like a Navy moment. And a Navy with a white shoe is so good. This tennis dress, though, not only have I played tennis in it, I've also worked out in it. So you might have seen it on my Instagram stories. I wear it a lot when I'm in the gym. It's so cute. It's tight. It's flattering. It holds you in all the right places.

One thing that I have done every single day of my life for the last three years is I have eaten a bowl of meat. I actually went on TikTok the other day and saw thousands of renditions of your guys's take on my bowl of meat, which was really cool. And the other day I did one that was absolutely delicious. I actually started it with Taylor Farms chopped salad kit. So I didn't have to pre-wash it because the salads are pre-washed, pre-cut, and ready to enjoy. I put it on the plate. I then laid a bunch of meat. I did some venison on top.

So good. Had a bunch of organs in it. And then I did raw cheese on that. Choped tomato, a little bit of pepperosini's, a little bit of jalapeno, and some ketchup. And it was like a burger bowl. It was so good. Taylor Farm salads make healthy eating easy and delicious. I find it to be very efficient when I'm quickly whipping up my bowl of meat.

I can't be bothered with too many things. I need stuff that's quick, and I like how this is all pre-cut. The one that I used is the Southwest chopped. This was bright, it was fresh, it was perfect for the bowl of meat. Taylor Farms chopped salad kits deliver the freshest best-tasting salads to eat at home or on the go. I love anything on the go. If you want something fresh and delicious, check them out. Taylor Farms' chopped salad kits are available at all major grocery stores.

There's a list of all these other things that you've done and done, Ben on. Are these before office or after office? Well, curb had to be after. Curb your enthusiasm. Before. Before. Before. It's always sunny in Philadelphia. Before. During? I don't know. During. Reno 9-1-1. Before. The Baywatch movie. During. Shamedless. During. Okay. Is Larry David as funny? Yes, he's not. It's very funny. Is he that funny? Yeah. Larry David, to me, this is a hot take. It's hot. Lauren's got all the red flags.

A lot of people say that. I think Larry David is hot. What about him? I don't. I think he's so self-aware that that's hot. That what he's doing is hot? Yeah. He's like really self-aware.

Jade, what do you think? No, Jade says no. Oh, Ariel agrees. Ariel agrees. Okay. Is he as funny, though, as he is on the show? No, he's not as funny as that, but he's very funny. Okay.

I mean, the show is things that he would like to say, but he doesn't act like that walking around, but he's probably thinking it. How do you even think of it if he's not thinking it? Well, I think the best thing about that show is it's what everyone's thinking. It's like we're all thinking. Like the thing, one of the episodes that stands out is when he goes to the city and he's like, hey, Larry, like, we're both in New York at the same time.

Why do we hang out? We live in L.A. together. We never hang out in L.A. Like, why are you going to hang out now? We're both on vacation. That's like stuff. That's happened to all of us. And but the funny, he's very, there's a, keeps thinking of fleeback.

Fleabag was really funny. And Larry's, the things he thinks of, like, I was, my cousin was visiting from out of town where we were talking about the Larry David and the scenario he, the scenarios he thinks of. And, you know, I said, remember the episode where he's like, he's late for a baseball game? You know what I'm talking about? And he's in traffic and there's the diamond lane. And he's like, I can't go in the diamond. He brings the lady of the night.

Yeah. He looks at the side and there's a prostitute. Who thinks of that? Hey, did you see what? He puts her in the car. That's hilarious. Wait, hold on. Did you see what happened?

because of that? What? What? They solved a murder where someone was on death row. Oh, yeah. Somebody was... What? His alibi.

The alibi, someone was accused of murder and he was going to go to jail for murder. And they found Curb Your Enthusiasm footage where the guy's alibi line up and he was in the audience at the curb show. Is that crazy? And so he got off because they thought he was... Of course that happens to Larry Day. Now, of course, now that makes him even more sexier in your crazy eyes. I'm just saying... He's a date.

The hero. I'm going to date Larry David. Who else you're going to date? Tony Sopran. Tony Sopran. Oh, Jesus Christ. Oh. She likes that balding. I get it.

I like a certain energy. It's a certain energy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The Brooklyn thing. Hey. Yeah.

Look out over here. You're from, oh, you're from, no, you guys are from San Diego. No, we don't know. We have the San Diego accent. Yeah. I have the San Diego. Yeah. I like your accent, too.

You'll do. If you could pick one or two of your favorite episodes looking back, what would they be? Of what of the office? Well, I. I thought, I wasn't in this one, but the dinner party was so crazy. What about one you were in? Give us one you were in. The gay witch hunt is very funny.

Remind me of the gay witch hunt. When he kisses me on the mouth and I have to sue him and I leave the, I left to go do a show on Comedy Central. How was kissing? I didn't expect that. You know, people know this. It was improvised and it wasn't in the script and he did it because the scene was flat. And now he made it an iconic scene. And that's Steve Carell putting on his executive producer hat.

We need to pull that scene. I need to see you guys kissing. No, but the dinner party scene with the flat screen TV when it's the tiny little TV is so funny. In the bed, in the bedroom, he's like, I sleep here on top of the trunk at the foot of the bed. It's bananas. I need to, I think I need to rewatch the office. Remember the tiny flat screen? I kind of remember what you're talking about, but I feel like I need to rewatch it.

I'm down. I rewatch Sopranos. I think all. I'll re-watch the office. Great show. It is a great, I mean, I got to re-watch it. I feel like it'll bring back all the warm, fuzzy memories. Yeah.

If you were going to give your daughter advice, you mentioned self-worth, what are some other sort of like pillars that you would give her? Well, that's the most important one, I think, because then everything else branches off of that. I agree with you. And I think a father to instill self-worth and a daughter is the most important. Yeah, that's it. When it comes to creativity and stuff,

and she's little now and figuring out what she likes and stuff, to surround yourself with like-minded people. I think that's very important. Friends are important who your friends are and stuff. So, you know, yeah. Michael's going to be puppeteering that I can already see in his eyes. Well, you're a little further along. Maybe I have to give you a call as you go into the teenagers.

How old is? She's four. Adorable. It's adorable. I was walking this morning with both of them. I have a two-year-old and a four-year-old downstairs. We're running around the hotel without shoes on. And this woman in the elevator was like, oh, I have a 16-year-old.

And I was like, yeah, like, this is like, you know, they're two and four. And she said, love that age, but it's a lot of work. It's a lot of work, but it's, it's, they're only two and four once and it goes quickly. So all that goes away when you're, it is a lot of work, but you look back. you're like, oh, maybe I should have enjoyed every single minute of that because they won't be back there again. Yeah, this older gentleman was walking by us again in the hotel and the kids were kind of, they were going crazy. And it's like, oh, sorry. And he looked back and he's like, don't worry.

He's like, one day you'll miss this. Yeah. And then, you know, she used to say Lelo instead of yelling. We're like, don't correct her. Just let her say it until she doesn't. Yeah, don't you dare correct, uh, work. What is Wook is look? Yeah.

Don't you dare correct that. No, no. It goes away. Or my son, he'll go, Mere, Daddy, Mere. come here. Yeah. It's very cute. Yeah.

It's all wonderful. What can we expect from you up and coming? Pimp yourself out. Tell us where... What's happening? Yeah, you get to pimp yourself out. Tell us where we can find you, see you, follow you, what we can look out for. Why do you assume I want to be looked at and found and scoped out?

What if I've turned a corner and I want seclusion and I want to be in a cabin and I want to whittle? I like to whittle. You can have seclusion if you want. You can say I'm not going to pimp myself out. Do you know what whittling? is? Yeah. I want to whittle some wood. Whittle some wood. You know what? After the iconicness of the office,

I think you can take a break in whittlesome wood. I'll take a break. We're going to open the show and say, we found Oscar. He was in a cabin, whittling some wood. We dragged him down to the studio. There's things happening. In the meantime... Catapulted him down to the studio. I'm okay. Yeah, we catapulted you down into the studio. You catapulted me. It's funny you said

catapult because when I pass away, I I was telling one of my nephews was visiting me, who was it, Johnny? And I told my wife and him, I'm like, you guys, when I pass away right before I pass away, not, I don't want to be dead, but right before I want to be catapulted into the Pacific. Like a past Malibor or something. Right before you. Yeah, because I want to enjoy the arc of the flying. That's beautiful sight.

And then you land and you're biodegradable. And you can be in the ocean. I can be in the ocean. Did you know? It's relaxing. Biodigratable underwear, the fish will eat my body. Are you a Hunter S. Thompson fan at all? Yeah, who, what?

You know what? Johnny Depp paid a few million dollars, I think. You can look this up to after he passed to shoot his ashes out of a cannon. Hunter's, he would have loved it. Did he want that? I'm sure if he pointed, like knowing a little bit about him, I'm sure he would be amenable to that outcome. But I think the great Gary Shandling has a joke. He says, when I pass away, I want my remains scattered on the beach.

I think I want my goal. I don't want to be cremated. To eat mine. Did you finish? You stepped on me a little bit. Sorry. I don't want to step on Oscar from the office. Did you hear the punch line?

Say the punchline again. He says, Gary Shalhanan says, I want my remains scattered on the beach. I don't want to be cremated. I don't get it. He's just his body parts all over the beach. God damn it, Lord. Can we keep up today? She's going to slow start.

Would I be good on the office? Yes. Where would I set? Um, oh gosh, maybe human resources like in the other part because it's so full in the first one. Okay. But a little of you goes a long way and that's good. They put you over there. Could I wear like, I feel like I'd want to come in in like a bikini and be like.

Why are you making it crazy now? How would that work? Okay. How would that work? Okay. Where would I sit? If you go over and sit with Toby and stuff, just you being there would make him crazy. And that's, that'll be fun to.

I forgot about Toby. Yeah, Toby's over there with you. We'd put you over there with... We have a Toby, too. Everyone has a Toby. Everyone has a Toby. Everyone has an Oscar. And you know, what do you want to be?

Yeah, what do I want to be? You could be in the warehouse. The warehouse is fun. Mm, Chris Pratt. A little goes a long way, man. The warehouse down there in the warehouse with those fellas. That's pretty crazy that Chris Pratt started on the office and now he's a superhero. No.

No. He didn't start on the office. Has she watched the office? He didn't start on the office? Do you know who I am? No, parks and recreation. No, he was a lot. on the office. I swear. I'm going to fact check right now.

I don't think so. Wait, are you right? Is she right, Taylor? No, I don't think so. She may be right because she's so unfaddy. I'm pretty sure. No, it's Parks and Rex. You're saying he was a guest. I'm pretty sure he was on the office. I don't think so. Taylor? No, I don't think so. Taylor? No, I don't think you're wrong. I don't think you're wrong. Then it's a guy that looks just like him. We love your enthusiasm. Yes. No, Chris Pat is not in the office. Yeah. It was a guy who looked like him. Let me tell you something about my wife. She does this to me in our marriage. She's very enthusiastic. No, not only is she enthusiastic.

She did this to me the other day. Who was in the opposite? And she came to and she's so sure. She's so sure. I question myself. I'm like, I'm wrong. It's called gaslighting. Welcome to being married. I do that all. I'm like, I don't know anymore. My wife says something like, yes, you're right. Like, you're gaslighting. I'm like, this is the very definition of gaslight. Like, she just did it.

Do you know that he needs to get a tattoo on his ass really small? He who? Michael. What do you want on his butt? Little tiny cursive. Yes, dear. If it's on my ass, I'll never see it. Okay.
