This is he said, aav HO with Eric Winter and Rosalind Fantaz. Hello, Hello, welcome to another episode, he said. Ad Oh, well it's he said again, because my wife is still out of town, so there's no aav ho and this one yet again another host chat solo. But you know what, this has been a great time for me to be able to answer a lot of listener questions directed towards me. And I know we've been getting hundreds of questions coming in from all you listeners, and we truly appreciate it. We always love your support. You know, It's been very interesting because the kids are gone now too. Now. The good thing is I've been working like crazy on the Rookie. We can say that Bradford is very heavy. In the first three episodes. There's a lot of Bradford content, but it's weird now because the kids are gone and I got this whole house to myself two weekends in a row now. Although I was supposed to go this last weekend to visit Roslin and the kids in Puerto Rico, and then this whole Microsoft outage happened and it affected my flight. Thankfully, before I eve been headed to the airport, but I left from work. I was gonna catch a red eye. My flight got delayed. I was going to miss my connection. Then I would have who knows when I would have landed in Puerto Rico. And then we have a friend in Puerto Rico right now that was trying to get out around the time I would be getting out, and her flight got pushed, so she's now stuck in Puerto Rico another week. So thankfully I didn't take that flight, because had I had taken that flight, I would have probably in a lot of trouble with the rookie. So that all worked out. But now I'm board at home, and it's really weird, you know. In one way, it's kind of relaxing. I have this, you know, house to myself. I'm in the pool, i'm chilling, I'm doing a lot of Palm Republic work. But it's also very strange having a completely quiet household, and I don't know the last time that we've had that, where the kids are with Roz and I'm just solo for two weeks, which is so bizarre. And then the kids fly back and then I go to where to Reco to do a part in Rosland's movie which is gonna be fun. So hopefully we'll get to do an episode out there while I'm in town filming, which would be nice. But Palm Republic occupied my entire weekend. One of my favorite cocktails. Let me tell you. On these, I've been a lot of hot summer days here in California and Los Angeles. But you know, we are making We're having this mission of bringing back the classic Cuban dacrie. Now, I know most people think of a dacri and they think, oh, sugar and super sweet, and that's what we all are familiar with, these strawberry dacries that are like blended and crushed ice and very very sweet and sugary. But I don't know if a lot of people know the classic Cuban doctrie. We're gonna have this little history blog on the website on the Palm Republic page. But it's three ingredients. It's just fresh lime, add Palm Republic rum, put in a little simple syrup, and then you put it over ice, shake it until the shaker's cold, and you have the pull one of the best, most refreshing, simple drinks with way less sugar than all this added blended stuff that we're like I said, we're so used to when you think of traditional rum drinks, so that's something very fun that we're trying to bring back. Is the classic Cuban docri and also my all time favorite with the age drum is in old fashion. I love our Palmer Public old fashion. It is so good. But it's been great. A lot of customers have been receiving their bottles and I've been posting on social media. It's been so awesome to see the feedback and the reviews. And now we have some bunch of gifting boxes going out. We might do some special giveaways with customers getting their own gifting boxes that have some merch inside. And then we have our merch launching on the website here very soon. Grab a hat, grab a shirt. So it's been a lot of fun, a lot of fun, very time consuming. Building a brand or a company, I should say, is a lot of work, but very rewarding at the same time. Anybody out there who's doing it, I feel you. I understand it now. Being an entrepreneur is no joke, but it is very rewarding as you start to see customers happy. So that's where I'm at with palb Republic. I know Roz's first day of filming is today. She's having a blast on the movie. It's finally going well. They've had a lot of ups and downs with cast and just locations and getting things locked up. But now that they are in production, I know today is going super smooth. So she is over the moon and I'm very happy for her because it's been hard. It's not easy when your wife has gone for so long, and we've done this before. Fantasy Island was very tough. She was gone for four and a half months. That was brutal. The kids barely saw her. I saw her less than the kids. It's hard. This is going to be almost two months. And when things don't go right, you know who's your sounding board, your sounding board or your partner, your spouse, and sometimes it gets challenging, especially with long distance. So I feel for her. I know it's been a lot, but I'm so proud of her and I'm so happy it's all coming together. Now, let me get to some listener questions at Lily May Todd. I have a bucket list, you know, I do have a bucket list, and there are quite a few things I would like to do. Two of them that really stand out, and I'm trying to hit one of them from my fiftieth. I want to go to Japan. I really want to go to Japan. I want to go on a safari in South Africa. And I want to go cage diving with great white sharks. I really want to do that in South Africa. Like I don't know why, but I am obsessed with trying to get into a cage and see what it's like underwater with great whites coming at you. I yeah, I know, call it crazy, but it's something I really want to do, so we'll see. Those are the two bucket list things that come off dump my head right away. But that's uh yeah, one seems realistic and the other one seems crazy at it's a ya fair brother. What is your favorite song genre of music now? And what was it growing up? So growing up? I mean I've always I listened to everything I always do, but given where I grew up, I was big and hip hop and R and B. I loved it. I went through like that eighties metal stage as well. Like my first concert ever was bon Jovi Slipper when Wet when I was in fifth grade. That was my first concert. Then I saw Guns and Roses, I saw you know, Cinderella, skid Row, all of them, Pantera. I was big into that metal phase for a while, but I also love hip hop and uh just classic rap from back then, eighties, nineties all that. Now it's still pretty much a lot of the same. Although what's weird in my older age now is I'm listening to more country. And I'm not saying I'm a country music fan, because I'm not sure that I am. But I like the direction of where country has been going lately. Maybe it's a little bit more pop. Maybe that's why I like it. But like Morgan Wallen, I like him. I like his music, Shaboozi that song, you know, Tipsy bar song, great song. And there's some other country artists I do like as well, But I think that crossover, like Morgan wall is doing a lot with hip hop in the country, it's it's making me like that genre a bit more. At me, how does your routine change when Roz is away? So I'd say I'm a bit more. You know, Roz is very I'm a neat freak as well, but Roz is like super neat freak, especially when it comes to the house. So I'm a little more lax at putting things away right away, but I'm not messy. I just do it my way when she's gone, and I mean now with the kid's gone, I've actually slept in a little bit, which isn't much for me, but like sleeping in a little longer and now just taking care of myself, Jim and trying to you know, when I'm not working, because I've been working like crazy, but finding a way to decompress. And also, like I said, keep busy on Palm Republic. But it's I'm still telling you it's weird. It is weird not having the noise of the kids. Stay Dad, Dad dah, come play with me. Let's do this, Let's do like constantly. It's such a trip. Let's see at K and E cheek boutique, chic boutique. I should say, any plans to do another Hallmark movie? You know, Roz and I haven't done a movie together in a long time, although we're gonna do her movie Diaudio here when I go, but she's not acting in it. I don't think we have any plans to do another Hallmark movie at the moment. But I would like to do a movie together. Again. I got to figure out what that's going to be. If it's going to be on you know, a TV movie, or it's gonna be an actual movie. I got a movie on you know, not on TV. I should say not like an that there are also movies too, but you know what I mean, like when they we're trying to sell in theaters. But no, no plans at the moment. We'll see if one comes up anytime, you know, in the near future, we might think about it. If we're doing it together, let's see at SJ Exclusive. How do you maintain your principles and morals in your marriage when society seems to be changing in that area. Do you think when it comes to dating the right person, you'll find you will find someone you or you should make a strong move to make that connection. Okay, great question. How do we maintain our morals? I think that is something that's part of who you are, you know, in general, whether you're in entertainment business or you're not the entertainment business. I have very strong morals when it comes to my marriage, and I know Roslin does as well. And that's the partner I found. I have very strong morals. I know Rosin does as well. That's how we were sort of raised and what we want in our lives even before we met. So for us, it's not that difficult to maintain those morals even though we're in the business that we are in. Our marriage is a top priority to each of us and our family is number one, and so for us, those morals became, you know, become just normal part of life. Like we respect each other immensely. We treat each other, you know, as we each would like to be treated, and we have a ton of love for each other. And it's just important that our marriage is intact and put first above everything else, even as we're navigating work and other challenges. So it is some thing that I think, regardless of what society might be doing, it's for us. It just comes back to our roots and our home base of how we think. But when it comes to dating, finding the person that's right for you, or going out there and pursuing to make that connection, that's a tough one because in today's society, people aren't really out dating as much as like when I was. It's so easy now with all these apps to meet people. However, I would say finding that real connection still takes that, you know, one on one interaction and in person. So I think you know, you have all these tools to connect with somebody at least to break the ice not being face to face. However, I think that's it as service, because I think it really comes to putting in that work face to face. Should you go out there and chase it? I think it's I think love is something that's going to come to you and find. It's you know, find you on its own. I don't know that's something you can force or make a strong move to find. I think if you're single and you're you're looking to meet a person, have to be kind of active with going out, whether you're actively searching on your dating apps and then going out, or you're just going out with friends and trying to do it the old fashioned way and just meet someone. I think you have to be actively putting yourself in the space to meet someone. But I don't think you should be pushing yourself on anybody. It's going to happen naturally. Anything forced to me just seems to fall apart or not turn out to be genuine or the intentions of what the other person wants might not line up with yours. So you know, everybody's got their own reason of why they want to hook up, so you got to make sure you do it the smart way. Make sure it's not about the physical hookup and make sure that there's a personal connection and somebody you can really get to know. Unless you're looking just to have fun, then do whatever you want at being I decided how to say this one. Do you have a favorite topic we've spoken about on the podcast. I don't know if I have a favorite topic. I mean, we've covered so many great things on the podcast. I would say whenever we've talked to out things where we learned something together as a couple. Those are some of my favorites. Financial things that we've gone over on the podcast, even as it relates to marriage or intimacy, I think that stuff has been great. We've learned a lot. Even the life coaches and the nutritional things that we've had featured on our podcast have been great. So I think a lot of it. I'm all about constantly trying to I love self help. I love trying to improve myself. So any of those things where I gain knowledge from have been a lot of fun. For me personally as topics that we can cover at Kristin Kiggs. Is there a co star early in your career that you're still friends with? So I have quite a few co stars I'm still friends with, but one in particular, Matt Sadaniel, who is on Days of our Lives with me in the very beginning, but we knew each other even before Days. He was the best man at my wedding. I mean, Matt and I are still very close friends today. I'm not super tight with a lot of people from Days anymore, but if I see them, we catch up. Everything's great eight And that's the same way with with what you know. I spoke to a friend just by text recently. dB Woodside, a great actor, was on Lucifer. We're good buddies. We haven't caught up in a while, but we just texted today. Funny enough, I've known him since my first pilot ever, Viva Laughlin, which I have to admit I was so funny. We became good friends. But I was so starstruck when I saw him because I was a huge fan of twenty four and he was the president after Dennis Haysburg. He was Dennis's brother and he became president, and so I was so obsessed with working with him and calling him mister President because I love that show so much. Anyways, Yeah, you know, I do have a handful of friends, and it's super important to me keeping those relationships intact. But as the years go on, it's tough. You know, it's tough to maintain those connections. You know, everybody's busy with so many things kids nowadays, like most of my friends all have children, and it takes up a lot of time. Let's see, I any jealousy with Jane. Roz and I. With filming, we've been pretty good, you know. Overall, I think Roz and I have had a very clear understanding of what this business is and what it brings out in a person, because it's challenging. We have love scenes and you know, love interests and various shows or movies. I would see in the beginning of our relationship, I was probably a bit more of the one that could get jealous at times or get a little bit I just didn't like it. I didn't like watching the love scenes. I don't like watching I still don't like watching it. I mean, if she's got if she has to kiss somebody or she has a love scene. I don't really care if I see it. I don't need to watch that scene. I don't have to watch the episode. I don't care. I'd rather just not know about it. Let her do her thing, and she's working and it is what it is. I trust her, and I'd say it's reciprocated. You know, she feels very comfortable with who I am, and she doesn't really like to watch that stuff either, and she knows us part of the job, so we balance the jealousy part of it pretty well. But you know, look, it's not comfortable. It's not easy for people in this business. That's why you see so many people go through breakups and people struggle in this business because when you're off doing a movie, you're doing a TV show, and you're gone for months at a time, and then you have a love interest, a romantic partner that you're you know, even though everything's totally neutralized when you're on set and it's not it's not like anybody's really having fun. It's not that kind of environment. But it's easy for your partner to be uncomfortable with that setting because they're not there, they're not part of it, and I'm not not that they want to be part of it like in a group, but I mean they're not. They're not witnessing or on set. They're not. They're not They're available in order for you to feel for them to feel safe and comfortable in the situation. And so I think that distance adds a big factor. If it's you know, if you're having love scenes or you have romantic partners and there's distance involved as well with your with your spouse, that makes it more challenging. If they're obviously in town and you come home to that person, it's a little bit easier, but we balance it out, I think pretty well, you know overall with the jealousy factor. Have I ever worked with a co star that is different in real life than they are on set? One time, and I won't say who that, I worked with a co star who decided and I don't think she is generally a method actress, but she decided I was doing the show, and she decided she was going to be a method for this this new season. I don't think she was even on the first season. But it's funny because for people who don't know what method acting is, it's like when an actor really tries to be the character all the time, not just when they're on set, when they're in the makeup trailer, when they're walking around on set, when they're at their chair waiting to go on set, when you see them coming into work, they are that character. That's method acting. I don't operate that way. You know. I get very focused and serious if I have a heavy scene or certain thing going on, or a character I'm trying to master. But I don't walk around trying to be Tim Bradford. I don't walk around as my character all the time. So one time on this show, this one actress definitely walked in and I thought it was kind of ironic because she walked in and letting us all know that she was going to be staying in character. Which is weird because when you're a method actor, you don't really care about what people think. You just walk in and you just are and people just have to accept it. They're gonna work with you, and that's what they say. Jim Carrey did on A Man on the Moon. You know, he or Val Kilmer and plain Jim Morrison, he walked around as that person. So you just have to deal with the actor knowing that they are going to be the character, and you don't talk to them as you don't refer to them as their name, you don't interact with them as you would themselves. You just talk. You don't even talk to them, really, So it was weird when this actress did this. It's kind of set a weird tone because she wasn't like that originally. Then she decided she was gonna be like that and told everybody she was going to do it. So we kind of got a laugh out of it at first, and then we all had to manage it and just understand that she's going to go through her process and we're going to respect it, and you know, I just sort of steer clear of people like that. I try not to really invest much time or energy in it because it gets too confusing. Like I can't be calling you, you know, your character's name, and then all of a sudden, your name, and I'd just rather be told what to do and act in the scene and treat them leave them alone. You know, if I'm not hanging out with their character in real life, then I don't really hang out with them off set, so they can be who they are and we come on set and we shoot, So that's kind of how I would deal with it. But it is a weird thing to have to manage when you're on set and he's kind of kind of figured out. Give them their space and respect it. You know, it's a good question. Does the Chenford fandom ever become overwhelming? You know? I you know, I love our rookie fandom. I love or I say it all the time. We would not be having the success we're having in what we're going into seven seasons now if it wasn't for this rookie fandom. And there's no question that the relationship between Tim and Lucy has become a major focal point on the show, There's no question, and that's all fan driven. I think the fans that support that relationship are incredible. The fandom is massive, The fandom has what is driving that storyline so strongly. The fandom is driving that storyline so strongly and really bringing it to life and bringing all these colors to it because the writers pay attention. The only time I'd say it ever gets a little overwhelming is if you know there are fans on social media that really can't separate the acting from my personal life, and when I think that bleeds into my personal life, then it's a little weird. You know, Like if my wife posts a picture and it's our anniversary and it's like a picture of us and they the fans, basically say you should be with Lucy, Well, no, I shouldn't be with Lucy. I'm married. This is my wife. Like you're breaking that that reality you know from what is TV, and that that is very That can be difficult at times when people don't respect that boundary. But at the same time, you know, they might not even know I'm married, they might not even know the truth of what's behind it. But at the end of the day, I ask fans to sort of take a step back and think about it, Like, look, if it's all if it's regarding the show, you're all in. But if it's regarding personal life of an actor, you know, just respect and understand the personal relationship the actor might be in and put yourself in that position so you know, you wouldn't want to say something that would offend your spouse if you were in a relationship, or you wouldn't want somebody to say it about you or your partner. So at the same time, that's the only part that's probably challenging. But the fandom is incredible. Their support is incredible, and honestly, I'm so grateful for this show and to have the diehard support that we do have, because I think it's better than any other show on TV as far as our fandom goes. Have you ever had an out of body experience or a dream that felt so lucid that you thought it was real. I've never had an out of body experience, although I'm all for watching documentaries and shows about stuff like that. I find it fascinating and I fully believe that all that happens. I've had dreams, though, where I thought I was fully like dying, falling, floating, flying, any of these things. I've had dreams where I thought Roz did something that wronged me, like in a dream, and I've woke up so angry at her and so mad that I thought it was real, and it struggled. I struggled with it all day long till I get over the fact that it was just a dream, Like she didn't have an affair or she didn't do X Y and Z, and I was pissed at her all day long. So it's weird how it can mess with your mind like that. For sure, Do I feel fulfilled as an actor? One hundred percent. I am so happy with where I'm at in my career right now, the journey I've been on. You know, it's not easy. It is not easy being an actor, being a working actor for that matter, supporting my family and supporting the lifestyle I want being an actor. It's not It's very very difficult. I mean, if you look at our union, I think most of our union ninety probably ninety eight percent of our union's unemployed right now. So very thankful where I'm out of my career. And it also kind of leads into another question here, which is about the advice I would give myself in my twenties and my thirties and my twenties. When I got into this business, I was very impatient. I wanted everything to happen right now. I wanted to be a working actor right away. I wanted to make money right away. I wanted to have my own show right away. I never understood patients and how difficult it can be and how this business works. You know, I always understood the mind of an athlete. If I work hard, I'll succeed. If I train, I'll get better. If I'm better, I'll get hired. And that is not this business. That is not how this business works. It is totally subjective to who's going to work and who's going to get a job, and it is not it is not. This business is not truly based on talent. I mean, talent is obviously very important. If you don't have an ounce of talent, you'll definitely be called out and you won't work again. But there are plenty of great actors that are unemployed, and there are plenty of big actors out there that a lot of people would argue are not very good, they're just okay. So a lot of it's timing, Loko, who you know, and if it's meant for you, it's meant for you. So I would tell myself in my twenties to be patient and trust the journey, trust the process of everything I'm going through, and just continue to learn and absorb and be open to what might come your way instead of getting being frustrated. That's how I was in my twenties. I quit acting at one point because I was so frustrated with getting close and closer to jobs, and then not getting them, so I stopped acting. And I always wonder where I would have been in my career if I would have broken sooner had I not quit for like two years. Because it's two years off, you know, you're off the radar, you're not involved in auditions, you're not being talked about anymore. And I always wonder what would have happened had I stuck it out and been patient. And in my thirties, I would say my best advice would have been to myself is just take care of your body. Take care of your body, don't abuse it so much. I was still in my thirties abusing my body at the gym, trying to be doing stupid things, trying to be extra strong and extra thing like just breaking my body down. And here I am my forties, and I'm dealing with the aftermath of a lot of that, you know, where I'm dealing with pain in my back or issues that I have to I have to resolve or I have to live with because I was too abusive to my body early on, whether it was a sports or training, And that's super important. I think people just realize you need to take care of yourself. You have to your mental state, your physical state. You have to take care of yourself at Becky one two three five three three. Do I have any advice for someone who has been cheated on? Woo, If you've been cheated on, hmm, that's tough. I always, I always have been of the mindset and I'm not saying this is the right advice, but for me, if someone cheated on me, I always like that they're not for me. This is not my person, it was not meant to be. Yeah, it stings, it's it sucks, for sure, But I have this ability of compartmentalizing and trying to move on quick and recognizing that like strike you strike three, you're out right away, and you're just not my partner. You're not the person I was meant to be with. So I move on. I move on. I get myself back out there, and I try and find someone who true is going to respect me and who's going to see me for who I am, and not someone who has the urge to go cheat on. Now. I don't know if I'm not of for me. I've never been in that position where I've taken somebody back and I've tried to make it work and all that everybody's got a different reality when it comes to those you know, those situations if someone has an affair and they're married and they have kids, and you know, I don't know what caused the affair, but maybe there is reason or a potential to try to work it out. We've had experts on the show talk about that. But if it's just like a dating relationship and someone cheats to me, they're out, move on buying somebody new. And this going talking again about prioritizing mental health. This is something I just touched on a second ago. I think you have to prioritize your mental health and daily like for me, I try to remind myself of the things I'm thankful for, prayer, we have these different little like meditation things I'll listen to sometimes, try to unwind, call my mind and just try to take care of myself, bringing the stress down. You know, for me, it's about bringing stress down. If I'm too stressed out, everything goes wrong. So I try really hard to work on those things. At EBW Films, I want to know who this film company is. Is there a moment in your life that you draw motion from or when it comes to acting, you know, there's a couple of things. I Uh, I do draw a lot from my dad's passing. It was a heavy moment in my life for sure. Uh. And also the birth of my kids. Those two of the best moments in my life without it, without a doubt, So I draw a lot on those, uh, those moments that I can think of. My wedding day was also an incredible uh time in my life. And uh, I've had some big victories in my life as many as well as many failures. So I try to whatever it is I'm trying to get into for a scene or for a moment, I work on it and I bring those those things all together. Uh. This is a great question. Do I think that Bradford and Roz would ever be successful as a couple. Hell no, There's not a chance in hell that Roslyn would ever date Tim Bradford. Roslyn would kill Tim Bradford. She's way too type A, way too type A, and Bradford's too type A. They'd be fighting constantly. She would never tolerate his tone. She'd she would have she would have been out in immediately. I can tell you that for sure, she does not have the patience for a Tim Bradford now the newer Tim Bradford she might be fine with. But Tim Bradford season one, two and three, No, she had have been done. She would have been done. All right. Well, let's see last question. Favorite thing to do between scenes, and I bet you all my co stars would agree is I'm probably on my phone way too much. I do love talking to my co stars, we love hanging out, we love joking and playing pranks on each other, but we are all probably on our phones way too much looking at social media or nonsense. I'm also working a lot when I'm on set, so between scenes, I'm working constantly on Palm Republic or things that we're trying to produce, or just everything else I have going on in life outside of the Rookies. So a lot of work, a lot of being on the phone, and that pretty much wraps it up. Listen, everybody, thank you for checking out another episode of He Said, He Ado, for listening to me answer all of your questions. I enjoyed doing it and I'm hoping to have another episode with the Rookies at lunch, so let's stay tuned for that. And if you have any other questions things you want to talk about sending the dms at, he said a d O or email us at Ericanroz at iHeartRadio dot com. Until next time, peace out, Thanks for listening, don't forget to write us a review and tell us what you think.

This is he said, aav HO with Eric Winter and Rosalind Fantaz. Hello, Hello, welcome to another episode, he said. Ad Oh, well it's he said again, because my wife is still out of town, so there's no aav ho and this one yet again another host chat solo. But you know what, this has been a great time for me to be able to answer a lot of listener questions directed towards me. And I know we've been getting hundreds of questions coming in from all you listeners, and we truly appreciate it. We always love your support. You know, It's been very interesting because the kids are gone now too. Now. The good thing is I've been working like crazy on the Rookie. We can say that Bradford is very heavy. In the first three episodes. There's a lot of Bradford content, but it's weird now because the kids are gone and I got this whole house to myself two weekends in a row now. Although I was supposed to go this last weekend to visit Roslin and the kids in Puerto Rico, and then this whole Microsoft outage happened and it affected my flight. Thankfully, before I eve been headed to the airport, but I left from work. I was gonna catch a red eye. My flight got delayed. I was going to miss my connection. Then I would have who knows when I would have landed in Puerto Rico. And then we have a friend in Puerto Rico right now that was trying to get out around the time I would be getting out, and her flight got pushed, so she's now stuck in Puerto Rico another week. So thankfully I didn't take that flight, because had I had taken that flight, I would have probably in a lot of trouble with the rookie. So that all worked out. But now I'm board at home, and it's really weird, you know. In one way, it's kind of relaxing. I have this, you know, house to myself. I'm in the pool, i'm chilling, I'm doing a lot of Palm Republic work. But it's also very strange having a completely quiet household, and I don't know the last time that we've had that, where the kids are with Roz and I'm just solo for two weeks, which is so bizarre. And then the kids fly back and then I go to where to Reco to do a part in Rosland's movie which is gonna be fun. So hopefully we'll get to do an episode out there while I'm in town filming, which would be nice. But Palm Republic occupied my entire weekend. One of my favorite cocktails. Let me tell you. On these, I've been a lot of hot summer days here in California and Los Angeles. But you know, we are making We're having this mission of bringing back the classic Cuban dacrie. Now, I know most people think of a dacri and they think, oh, sugar and super sweet, and that's what we all are familiar with, these strawberry dacries that are like blended and crushed ice and very very sweet and sugary. But I don't know if a lot of people know the classic Cuban doctrie. We're gonna have this little history blog on the website on the Palm Republic page. But it's three ingredients. It's just fresh lime, add Palm Republic rum, put in a little simple syrup, and then you put it over ice, shake it until the shaker's cold, and you have the pull one of the best, most refreshing, simple drinks with way less sugar than all this added blended stuff that we're like I said, we're so used to when you think of traditional rum drinks, so that's something very fun that we're trying to bring back. Is the classic Cuban docri and also my all time favorite with the age drum is in old fashion. I love our Palmer Public old fashion. It is so good. But it's been great. A lot of customers have been receiving their bottles and I've been posting on social media. It's been so awesome to see the feedback and the reviews. And now we have some bunch of gifting boxes going out. We might do some special giveaways with customers getting their own gifting boxes that have some merch inside. And then we have our merch launching on the website here very soon. Grab a hat, grab a shirt. So it's been a lot of fun, a lot of fun, very time consuming. Building a brand or a company, I should say, is a lot of work, but very rewarding at the same time. Anybody out there who's doing it, I feel you. I understand it now. Being an entrepreneur is no joke, but it is very rewarding as you start to see customers happy. So that's where I'm at with palb Republic. I know Roz's first day of filming is today. She's having a blast on the movie. It's finally going well. They've had a lot of ups and downs with cast and just locations and getting things locked up. But now that they are in production, I know today is going super smooth. So she is over the moon and I'm very happy for her because it's been hard. It's not easy when your wife has gone for so long, and we've done this before. Fantasy Island was very tough. She was gone for four and a half months. That was brutal. The kids barely saw her. I saw her less than the kids. It's hard. This is going to be almost two months. And when things don't go right, you know who's your sounding board, your sounding board or your partner, your spouse, and sometimes it gets challenging, especially with long distance. So I feel for her. I know it's been a lot, but I'm so proud of her and I'm so happy it's all coming together. Now, let me get to some listener questions at Lily May Todd. I have a bucket list, you know, I do have a bucket list, and there are quite a few things I would like to do. Two of them that really stand out, and I'm trying to hit one of them from my fiftieth. I want to go to Japan. I really want to go to Japan. I want to go on a safari in South Africa. And I want to go cage diving with great white sharks. I really want to do that in South Africa. Like I don't know why, but I am obsessed with trying to get into a cage and see what it's like underwater with great whites coming at you. I yeah, I know, call it crazy, but it's something I really want to do, so we'll see. Those are the two bucket list things that come off dump my head right away. But that's uh yeah, one seems realistic and the other one seems crazy at it's a ya fair brother. What is your favorite song genre of music now? And what was it growing up? So growing up? I mean I've always I listened to everything I always do, but given where I grew up, I was big and hip hop and R and B. I loved it. I went through like that eighties metal stage as well. Like my first concert ever was bon Jovi Slipper when Wet when I was in fifth grade. That was my first concert. Then I saw Guns and Roses, I saw you know, Cinderella, skid Row, all of them, Pantera. I was big into that metal phase for a while, but I also love hip hop and uh just classic rap from back then, eighties, nineties all that. Now it's still pretty much a lot of the same. Although what's weird in my older age now is I'm listening to more country. And I'm not saying I'm a country music fan, because I'm not sure that I am. But I like the direction of where country has been going lately. Maybe it's a little bit more pop. Maybe that's why I like it. But like Morgan Wallen, I like him. I like his music, Shaboozi that song, you know, Tipsy bar song, great song. And there's some other country artists I do like as well, But I think that crossover, like Morgan wall is doing a lot with hip hop in the country, it's it's making me like that genre a bit more. At me, how does your routine change when Roz is away? So I'd say I'm a bit more. You know, Roz is very I'm a neat freak as well, but Roz is like super neat freak, especially when it comes to the house. So I'm a little more lax at putting things away right away, but I'm not messy. I just do it my way when she's gone, and I mean now with the kid's gone, I've actually slept in a little bit, which isn't much for me, but like sleeping in a little longer and now just taking care of myself, Jim and trying to you know, when I'm not working, because I've been working like crazy, but finding a way to decompress. And also, like I said, keep busy on Palm Republic. But it's I'm still telling you it's weird. It is weird not having the noise of the kids. Stay Dad, Dad dah, come play with me. Let's do this, Let's do like constantly. It's such a trip. Let's see at K and E cheek boutique, chic boutique. I should say, any plans to do another Hallmark movie? You know, Roz and I haven't done a movie together in a long time, although we're gonna do her movie Diaudio here when I go, but she's not acting in it. I don't think we have any plans to do another Hallmark movie at the moment. But I would like to do a movie together. Again. I got to figure out what that's going to be. If it's going to be on you know, a TV movie, or it's gonna be an actual movie. I got a movie on you know, not on TV. I should say not like an that there are also movies too, but you know what I mean, like when they we're trying to sell in theaters. But no, no plans at the moment. We'll see if one comes up anytime, you know, in the near future, we might think about it. If we're doing it together, let's see at SJ Exclusive. How do you maintain your principles and morals in your marriage when society seems to be changing in that area. Do you think when it comes to dating the right person, you'll find you will find someone you or you should make a strong move to make that connection. Okay, great question. How do we maintain our morals? I think that is something that's part of who you are, you know, in general, whether you're in entertainment business or you're not the entertainment business. I have very strong morals when it comes to my marriage, and I know Roslin does as well. And that's the partner I found. I have very strong morals. I know Rosin does as well. That's how we were sort of raised and what we want in our lives even before we met. So for us, it's not that difficult to maintain those morals even though we're in the business that we are in. Our marriage is a top priority to each of us and our family is number one, and so for us, those morals became, you know, become just normal part of life. Like we respect each other immensely. We treat each other, you know, as we each would like to be treated, and we have a ton of love for each other. And it's just important that our marriage is intact and put first above everything else, even as we're navigating work and other challenges. So it is some thing that I think, regardless of what society might be doing, it's for us. It just comes back to our roots and our home base of how we think. But when it comes to dating, finding the person that's right for you, or going out there and pursuing to make that connection, that's a tough one because in today's society, people aren't really out dating as much as like when I was. It's so easy now with all these apps to meet people. However, I would say finding that real connection still takes that, you know, one on one interaction and in person. So I think you know, you have all these tools to connect with somebody at least to break the ice not being face to face. However, I think that's it as service, because I think it really comes to putting in that work face to face. Should you go out there and chase it? I think it's I think love is something that's going to come to you and find. It's you know, find you on its own. I don't know that's something you can force or make a strong move to find. I think if you're single and you're you're looking to meet a person, have to be kind of active with going out, whether you're actively searching on your dating apps and then going out, or you're just going out with friends and trying to do it the old fashioned way and just meet someone. I think you have to be actively putting yourself in the space to meet someone. But I don't think you should be pushing yourself on anybody. It's going to happen naturally. Anything forced to me just seems to fall apart or not turn out to be genuine or the intentions of what the other person wants might not line up with yours. So you know, everybody's got their own reason of why they want to hook up, so you got to make sure you do it the smart way. Make sure it's not about the physical hookup and make sure that there's a personal connection and somebody you can really get to know. Unless you're looking just to have fun, then do whatever you want at being I decided how to say this one. Do you have a favorite topic we've spoken about on the podcast. I don't know if I have a favorite topic. I mean, we've covered so many great things on the podcast. I would say whenever we've talked to out things where we learned something together as a couple. Those are some of my favorites. Financial things that we've gone over on the podcast, even as it relates to marriage or intimacy, I think that stuff has been great. We've learned a lot. Even the life coaches and the nutritional things that we've had featured on our podcast have been great. So I think a lot of it. I'm all about constantly trying to I love self help. I love trying to improve myself. So any of those things where I gain knowledge from have been a lot of fun. For me personally as topics that we can cover at Kristin Kiggs. Is there a co star early in your career that you're still friends with? So I have quite a few co stars I'm still friends with, but one in particular, Matt Sadaniel, who is on Days of our Lives with me in the very beginning, but we knew each other even before Days. He was the best man at my wedding. I mean, Matt and I are still very close friends today. I'm not super tight with a lot of people from Days anymore, but if I see them, we catch up. Everything's great eight And that's the same way with with what you know. I spoke to a friend just by text recently. dB Woodside, a great actor, was on Lucifer. We're good buddies. We haven't caught up in a while, but we just texted today. Funny enough, I've known him since my first pilot ever, Viva Laughlin, which I have to admit I was so funny. We became good friends. But I was so starstruck when I saw him because I was a huge fan of twenty four and he was the president after Dennis Haysburg. He was Dennis's brother and he became president, and so I was so obsessed with working with him and calling him mister President because I love that show so much. Anyways, Yeah, you know, I do have a handful of friends, and it's super important to me keeping those relationships intact. But as the years go on, it's tough. You know, it's tough to maintain those connections. You know, everybody's busy with so many things kids nowadays, like most of my friends all have children, and it takes up a lot of time. Let's see, I any jealousy with Jane. Roz and I. With filming, we've been pretty good, you know. Overall, I think Roz and I have had a very clear understanding of what this business is and what it brings out in a person, because it's challenging. We have love scenes and you know, love interests and various shows or movies. I would see in the beginning of our relationship, I was probably a bit more of the one that could get jealous at times or get a little bit I just didn't like it. I didn't like watching the love scenes. I don't like watching I still don't like watching it. I mean, if she's got if she has to kiss somebody or she has a love scene. I don't really care if I see it. I don't need to watch that scene. I don't have to watch the episode. I don't care. I'd rather just not know about it. Let her do her thing, and she's working and it is what it is. I trust her, and I'd say it's reciprocated. You know, she feels very comfortable with who I am, and she doesn't really like to watch that stuff either, and she knows us part of the job, so we balance the jealousy part of it pretty well. But you know, look, it's not comfortable. It's not easy for people in this business. That's why you see so many people go through breakups and people struggle in this business because when you're off doing a movie, you're doing a TV show, and you're gone for months at a time, and then you have a love interest, a romantic partner that you're you know, even though everything's totally neutralized when you're on set and it's not it's not like anybody's really having fun. It's not that kind of environment. But it's easy for your partner to be uncomfortable with that setting because they're not there, they're not part of it, and I'm not not that they want to be part of it like in a group, but I mean they're not. They're not witnessing or on set. They're not. They're not They're available in order for you to feel for them to feel safe and comfortable in the situation. And so I think that distance adds a big factor. If it's you know, if you're having love scenes or you have romantic partners and there's distance involved as well with your with your spouse, that makes it more challenging. If they're obviously in town and you come home to that person, it's a little bit easier, but we balance it out, I think pretty well, you know overall with the jealousy factor. Have I ever worked with a co star that is different in real life than they are on set? One time, and I won't say who that, I worked with a co star who decided and I don't think she is generally a method actress, but she decided I was doing the show, and she decided she was going to be a method for this this new season. I don't think she was even on the first season. But it's funny because for people who don't know what method acting is, it's like when an actor really tries to be the character all the time, not just when they're on set, when they're in the makeup trailer, when they're walking around on set, when they're at their chair waiting to go on set, when you see them coming into work, they are that character. That's method acting. I don't operate that way. You know. I get very focused and serious if I have a heavy scene or certain thing going on, or a character I'm trying to master. But I don't walk around trying to be Tim Bradford. I don't walk around as my character all the time. So one time on this show, this one actress definitely walked in and I thought it was kind of ironic because she walked in and letting us all know that she was going to be staying in character. Which is weird because when you're a method actor, you don't really care about what people think. You just walk in and you just are and people just have to accept it. They're gonna work with you, and that's what they say. Jim Carrey did on A Man on the Moon. You know, he or Val Kilmer and plain Jim Morrison, he walked around as that person. So you just have to deal with the actor knowing that they are going to be the character, and you don't talk to them as you don't refer to them as their name, you don't interact with them as you would themselves. You just talk. You don't even talk to them, really, So it was weird when this actress did this. It's kind of set a weird tone because she wasn't like that originally. Then she decided she was gonna be like that and told everybody she was going to do it. So we kind of got a laugh out of it at first, and then we all had to manage it and just understand that she's going to go through her process and we're going to respect it, and you know, I just sort of steer clear of people like that. I try not to really invest much time or energy in it because it gets too confusing. Like I can't be calling you, you know, your character's name, and then all of a sudden, your name, and I'd just rather be told what to do and act in the scene and treat them leave them alone. You know, if I'm not hanging out with their character in real life, then I don't really hang out with them off set, so they can be who they are and we come on set and we shoot, So that's kind of how I would deal with it. But it is a weird thing to have to manage when you're on set and he's kind of kind of figured out. Give them their space and respect it. You know, it's a good question. Does the Chenford fandom ever become overwhelming? You know? I you know, I love our rookie fandom. I love or I say it all the time. We would not be having the success we're having in what we're going into seven seasons now if it wasn't for this rookie fandom. And there's no question that the relationship between Tim and Lucy has become a major focal point on the show, There's no question, and that's all fan driven. I think the fans that support that relationship are incredible. The fandom is massive, The fandom has what is driving that storyline so strongly. The fandom is driving that storyline so strongly and really bringing it to life and bringing all these colors to it because the writers pay attention. The only time I'd say it ever gets a little overwhelming is if you know there are fans on social media that really can't separate the acting from my personal life, and when I think that bleeds into my personal life, then it's a little weird. You know, Like if my wife posts a picture and it's our anniversary and it's like a picture of us and they the fans, basically say you should be with Lucy, Well, no, I shouldn't be with Lucy. I'm married. This is my wife. Like you're breaking that that reality you know from what is TV, and that that is very That can be difficult at times when people don't respect that boundary. But at the same time, you know, they might not even know I'm married, they might not even know the truth of what's behind it. But at the end of the day, I ask fans to sort of take a step back and think about it, Like, look, if it's all if it's regarding the show, you're all in. But if it's regarding personal life of an actor, you know, just respect and understand the personal relationship the actor might be in and put yourself in that position so you know, you wouldn't want to say something that would offend your spouse if you were in a relationship, or you wouldn't want somebody to say it about you or your partner. So at the same time, that's the only part that's probably challenging. But the fandom is incredible. Their support is incredible, and honestly, I'm so grateful for this show and to have the diehard support that we do have, because I think it's better than any other show on TV as far as our fandom goes. Have you ever had an out of body experience or a dream that felt so lucid that you thought it was real. I've never had an out of body experience, although I'm all for watching documentaries and shows about stuff like that. I find it fascinating and I fully believe that all that happens. I've had dreams, though, where I thought I was fully like dying, falling, floating, flying, any of these things. I've had dreams where I thought Roz did something that wronged me, like in a dream, and I've woke up so angry at her and so mad that I thought it was real, and it struggled. I struggled with it all day long till I get over the fact that it was just a dream, Like she didn't have an affair or she didn't do X Y and Z, and I was pissed at her all day long. So it's weird how it can mess with your mind like that. For sure, Do I feel fulfilled as an actor? One hundred percent. I am so happy with where I'm at in my career right now, the journey I've been on. You know, it's not easy. It is not easy being an actor, being a working actor for that matter, supporting my family and supporting the lifestyle I want being an actor. It's not It's very very difficult. I mean, if you look at our union, I think most of our union ninety probably ninety eight percent of our union's unemployed right now. So very thankful where I'm out of my career. And it also kind of leads into another question here, which is about the advice I would give myself in my twenties and my thirties and my twenties. When I got into this business, I was very impatient. I wanted everything to happen right now. I wanted to be a working actor right away. I wanted to make money right away. I wanted to have my own show right away. I never understood patients and how difficult it can be and how this business works. You know, I always understood the mind of an athlete. If I work hard, I'll succeed. If I train, I'll get better. If I'm better, I'll get hired. And that is not this business. That is not how this business works. It is totally subjective to who's going to work and who's going to get a job, and it is not it is not. This business is not truly based on talent. I mean, talent is obviously very important. If you don't have an ounce of talent, you'll definitely be called out and you won't work again. But there are plenty of great actors that are unemployed, and there are plenty of big actors out there that a lot of people would argue are not very good, they're just okay. So a lot of it's timing, Loko, who you know, and if it's meant for you, it's meant for you. So I would tell myself in my twenties to be patient and trust the journey, trust the process of everything I'm going through, and just continue to learn and absorb and be open to what might come your way instead of getting being frustrated. That's how I was in my twenties. I quit acting at one point because I was so frustrated with getting close and closer to jobs, and then not getting them, so I stopped acting. And I always wonder where I would have been in my career if I would have broken sooner had I not quit for like two years. Because it's two years off, you know, you're off the radar, you're not involved in auditions, you're not being talked about anymore. And I always wonder what would have happened had I stuck it out and been patient. And in my thirties, I would say my best advice would have been to myself is just take care of your body. Take care of your body, don't abuse it so much. I was still in my thirties abusing my body at the gym, trying to be doing stupid things, trying to be extra strong and extra thing like just breaking my body down. And here I am my forties, and I'm dealing with the aftermath of a lot of that, you know, where I'm dealing with pain in my back or issues that I have to I have to resolve or I have to live with because I was too abusive to my body early on, whether it was a sports or training, And that's super important. I think people just realize you need to take care of yourself. You have to your mental state, your physical state. You have to take care of yourself at Becky one two three five three three. Do I have any advice for someone who has been cheated on? Woo, If you've been cheated on, hmm, that's tough. I always, I always have been of the mindset and I'm not saying this is the right advice, but for me, if someone cheated on me, I always like that they're not for me. This is not my person, it was not meant to be. Yeah, it stings, it's it sucks, for sure, But I have this ability of compartmentalizing and trying to move on quick and recognizing that like strike you strike three, you're out right away, and you're just not my partner. You're not the person I was meant to be with. So I move on. I move on. I get myself back out there, and I try and find someone who true is going to respect me and who's going to see me for who I am, and not someone who has the urge to go cheat on. Now. I don't know if I'm not of for me. I've never been in that position where I've taken somebody back and I've tried to make it work and all that everybody's got a different reality when it comes to those you know, those situations if someone has an affair and they're married and they have kids, and you know, I don't know what caused the affair, but maybe there is reason or a potential to try to work it out. We've had experts on the show talk about that. But if it's just like a dating relationship and someone cheats to me, they're out, move on buying somebody new. And this going talking again about prioritizing mental health. This is something I just touched on a second ago. I think you have to prioritize your mental health and daily like for me, I try to remind myself of the things I'm thankful for, prayer, we have these different little like meditation things I'll listen to sometimes, try to unwind, call my mind and just try to take care of myself, bringing the stress down. You know, for me, it's about bringing stress down. If I'm too stressed out, everything goes wrong. So I try really hard to work on those things. At EBW Films, I want to know who this film company is. Is there a moment in your life that you draw motion from or when it comes to acting, you know, there's a couple of things. I Uh, I do draw a lot from my dad's passing. It was a heavy moment in my life for sure. Uh. And also the birth of my kids. Those two of the best moments in my life without it, without a doubt, So I draw a lot on those, uh, those moments that I can think of. My wedding day was also an incredible uh time in my life. And uh, I've had some big victories in my life as many as well as many failures. So I try to whatever it is I'm trying to get into for a scene or for a moment, I work on it and I bring those those things all together. Uh. This is a great question. Do I think that Bradford and Roz would ever be successful as a couple. Hell no, There's not a chance in hell that Roslyn would ever date Tim Bradford. Roslyn would kill Tim Bradford. She's way too type A, way too type A, and Bradford's too type A. They'd be fighting constantly. She would never tolerate his tone. She'd she would have she would have been out in immediately. I can tell you that for sure, she does not have the patience for a Tim Bradford now the newer Tim Bradford she might be fine with. But Tim Bradford season one, two and three, No, she had have been done. She would have been done. All right. Well, let's see last question. Favorite thing to do between scenes, and I bet you all my co stars would agree is I'm probably on my phone way too much. I do love talking to my co stars, we love hanging out, we love joking and playing pranks on each other, but we are all probably on our phones way too much looking at social media or nonsense. I'm also working a lot when I'm on set, so between scenes, I'm working constantly on Palm Republic or things that we're trying to produce, or just everything else I have going on in life outside of the Rookies. So a lot of work, a lot of being on the phone, and that pretty much wraps it up. Listen, everybody, thank you for checking out another episode of He Said, He Ado, for listening to me answer all of your questions. I enjoyed doing it and I'm hoping to have another episode with the Rookies at lunch, so let's stay tuned for that.
