 Have you been any of the Austin Powers commercials commercials? You know, when Mike will sign on to do like a Dorita, you know what I mean? Like an endorsement that we did one. We did one for GM race for the Super Bowl. We have to help the planet. Oh, please cheer for my son. So you probably made more money for the commercial than you did. If I know show business, yeah, you definitely made more money in the commercial you did on the first. Yeah, the first one was like SAG scale. Yeah. Yeah. I think I had a plus 10 scale, but it was still pretty great. An independent movie, so it's like SAG modified. Yeah, maybe less than that, buddy. I think I took maybe took home like 15 for the whole for the whole thing. I only worked like five days on the movie. Could have fooled us. Do you remember reading the Austin Powers script? Yeah, I remember reading it. I'm not even in. I'm like writing for all that. Nickelodeon and like, you know, whatever, I remember reading it and going, he fucking did it. And and Mike said it was like, Mike, who's going to come on here. He was like, I didn't think it was any good. I was like, I thought it was it was insane. It's like a parody of blow up. Yeah. We're like, OK, like, it's so cool. It felt to me, here's what's funny is I read that and the Carrot Top movie chairman of the board in the same afternoon. Well, I don't know if it was the same afternoon, but I had them in the same level of consideration because I had auditioned. You were going to play carrot. Well, I had auditioned for both and then been offered both. And so I was going to be either the best friend, number three in the Carrot Top movie, or I was going to be Scott Evo. At the time I was doing American Buffalo in the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego. And I had just gotten on a path of like being an actor. I'm an amazing. I might be Lawrence Olivier. No, it wasn't it wasn't like that, but it was really. You know, I'd already spent like 20 years acting at that point and was having a sort of revelatory experience in a very small play in a very small theater that is a three person play and we were just doing the fucking thing. So it felt different to me as a performer than it had. And I was loving it. I was loving that experience of being able to really spend time on a particular scene, on a particular moment and craft it so explicitly that you could put it on for the audience night after night and to work through what the what the point is of each of these scenes, what the music is end to end. And then to be able to do that over and over again. I was really in a fucking magical place as a performer. So when I auditioned for Scott Evo and we've talked about like Jay Rhodes and I, Mike and I, we always I've talked about this a lot. I took those scenes like I was in a drama and that I think is why it works so well, because Mike's so ridiculous. Yeah, you've never you were, you were especially the first one. You were very like legit angry. I hate you. Yeah. Well, then like in pain and I love just as a human that's always evolving. I love the the trauma that's left to us by our parents, by our surroundings. And there was something just so funny about human frailty, right? Like the the the relatable humanity of us all, like our inclination to be deeply affected by shit that we should be able to cast off just because it has some kind of familial or or like a deeply emotional time. And I love the idea of this dad because the way they'd set it up, it was it was like perfect where you've got this absurdist character that wants a very relatable thing, a relationship with his son. I'm your father. And you've got this son who gets the benefit. Even by all of this absurdist circumstance of being able to give a relatable response. Lazy I cycle. And so for me, there was nothing fucking funnier than when Scott Evil is like genuinely hurt or in the scene with Carrie Fisher. Yeah, what brings you here with us today? Well, I just really met my dad for the first time five days ago. I was partially frozen his whole life. That is beautiful that you can admit to that. She's kind of kidding. You're not. No, I'm dead. Mike's out of his mind. Yeah, we talked about that, too. He was like, the more straight you are. Yeah, this scene, the better this thing works. And the upside for that day was that's the first thing that Mike and I filmed together. And so the emphasis of me meeting him was lessened. We were both so excited. I know, yeah, agreed to do this. I was excited when she came on screen. I was like, fuck, yeah. So that was our whole day. And he I walked into the makeup trailer early and he was getting his head shaved to be Dr. Evil. And I thought, well, this motherfucker's committed. Like this is an actual. He's going to really go there because he's not sticking around. And then we talked about this scene. And then when we got on set, it was scary. That we would like sort of have conversations in the margins about like, OK, what are we going to do in this and that? But it was very collaborative right from the get. And a good first thing because you're not connecting. Yeah, yeah. The best. Petulant teen scene for my money is it's your scenes and in Austin Powers. Do you ever see six degrees of separation? Yeah, the like college kids that are yelling at the parents. One of them JJ Abrams. I'm so embarrassed to know you. Really? It's insane. Isn't that in summer? No, it's no. It's a kid named Osgood Perkins, who I went to school with at NYU. Oh, really? Who's Anthony Perkins's son. I don't know if he acts anymore, but he's great. JJ is not bad. Yeah, it's like I'll cut to it here. But it's he just his monologue is so fucking funny. He's like, that was my pink shirt and you gave it away. You gave a complete stranger. My pink shirt, that shirt was a Christmas present from you. I treasured that shirt. I love that shirt. My collar has grown a full size from weightlifting. You saw that my arms are grown. You saw that my neck had grown and you bought me that shirt for my new body. That was that represented growth to me from lifting in my neck. It got it's so fucking fun. But yeah, it just goes to show like your pain is your pain, no matter. Yeah, it's also he just like nails. It's like your pain is your pain, but all teenage pain is the same. Yeah. Hey, did you like that? Did you like that? Yeah. Did you like it, though? You want more? Don't want to work? Would rather watch videos of me grab acid with people? First of all, go up here to subscribe and then go up here to watch more clips. This is like when the weatherman says there's a high pressure system coming in. Although I'm not really used to the green screen.
