dramatically he's he used to be terrible but he's he lives service now and his
life reflects it he's the
nicest most yeah mindful open yeah and his life changed so positively crazy
like miraculous miraculous
everything went up yeah man yeah great to watch it really does work yeah when
you see that you go it
works yeah he's that example for me yeah you know when i when i was i was doing
this play i was still
low i would drag him to meetings with me he would show up to me well he's loved
stories so our room's
got stories for days so he would just go in there to listen to these stories
with me yeah because i
wouldn't want to go by myself i said dave come with me you know yeah that's the
kind of cat he is so
it saved my life i was going through a real real difficult but really difficult
yeah we met at
a good time you saved my life and i would go to the meetings and the guy one
guy would say you know
my wife left me and she took all my money and then i realized that that she'd
she'd given me um
very bad disease and i couldn't even go dating anymore and i bought a gun and
but and there were
people in the room laughing laughing yeah get the tears yeah it's a tear am i
lying no it's the only
way yeah it's the only way because we were late yeah yeah i mean it's that you
know i mean i've been
in and out since i was 17. yeah i had 17 years one at one point like yeah i
know you you were in the
rooms when i first came in yeah at moore park more i remember seeing them
before radford yeah yeah
so it's like um but at at 17 what a gift as a kid yeah to get that you know i
wouldn't be here without
it how did you how did you even get in like because your dad wasn't it wasn't
family no my dad was a
violent um alcoholic sure among other things thanks for bringing that up well
you sure yeah you're welcome
uh but but he didn't bring you into rooms no i went to i mean when i was in
high school i went to um
a bunch of rehabs yeah and then the um i think the third one it clicked yeah
and i met this old
korean man by you know kid dan yeah dan yeah yeah and um when i was a kid and
he had 17 years at that
point he was at this long white hair tattoos full korean he was adopted long
ago and he was my sponsor
it was my junior year in high school when i met him and i just gave him a what
50 60 year cake or
whatever yeah i mean he's still like a part of my life yeah i mean but um yeah
without that i'd be
dead i think like lies is like that for me i got a bunch of these like jay
there's like 40 guys i
would tap and say oh man if not for them yeah that's the beauty i mean that's
really why you're here is
lies yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah while you guys were shooting the movie or
the play is when you were
going to these meetings well no when we no when we were filming we were filming
when we were filming
we always grind mode and then i would catch my meetings when i can get him at
night usually he's
way overwhelmed trying to mount especially the way we did it it was just there
was no uh like uh extra
time yeah but before all that you know there because he is who he is and and
maybe it's just my thing
there's a getting over dave mamet process you know i mean you got to get over
it you just got to get
over it it'd be like being asked to play batman like you just got to get over
and get to the work
it's like you can you can scare yourself to complete uh mute you can terrify
yourself first day he walks
in and you know you're about to be in a play that he wrote it's one of the
scariest moments of my life
for like the first table read so like i showed up to the table read i don't
know really what i'm
doing i never did a play i know it's a david mamet play what i know is like
that's the pinnacle
punctuation so i show up at the table read i'm off book that's not normal
normally you know you're
reading yeah but i'm scared yeah yeah yeah so so that fear helped me but the
fear had to wear off
at a certain point and i don't know if it it ever wore off during the play but
we became friends in
the midst of that like close close like closer than i'd been with most any
director i'd ever work with
you were the only one off book no no well he was so nervous he was so nervous
so like evan has done
plays before plus evan and him are already have a relationship i didn't have
with dave
i met dave through fan letter you know i've been trying to get to dave for
10 years you know and wow there'll be a project that pops up and i'll yeah i'll
do anything what
do you want me to do and and then it'll come it'll go you know or somebody will
take it from him like
we were gonna do this jfk movie and they just took it play oswald and that and
i was psyched because
that's gonna be so great yeah oswald that's that's one of the great roles and
you know you could ever
have so and in the midst of grinding on that they took it from him and then he
fell into a dark spell
because it's like somebody taking your baby from you and uh and then and then
it was and our play
was still up as all this was going on so it was a matter like me and evan like
oh we got it because
he's captain we got to get captain back up you know we got to get his spirits
back up so we almost
threw it out like like no way maybe he'll bite because usually we throw ideas
to him he doesn't
has no he's no interest right he'll say something like yeah no i hear you
unless it's unless it's to the
work if it's about the work this was such a great idea because we did the play
it was a great and
and um we could have run it forever except you can't ask the actors to come in
and work for 1995 a
week we would have though we were loving it but anyway and so cheyenne evan
come and say let's do a
movie so i say no we can't do a what are you talking about takes forever and we
have to go and talk to
the assholes in the valley and i said no no no no dude we're gonna we're gonna
do it ourselves we're
gonna great raise the money ourselves we're gonna do it ourselves how so i say
how are we gonna do it
i say it i don't know we're just going to do it and so like a lot of the great
things in my life i
got dragged into it kicking and screaming yeah yeah he wasn't interested to be
the best the best thing
that i've done in in decades the most changed my life we were prepping this
behind his back actually
oh wow yeah we were prepping the thing trying to get it mounted obviously we
couldn't hire nobody but
we're trying to get everything me and evan trying to get more mostly evan
trying to get everything
sorted so he could come in and sort of you know uh turnkey go
