00:00Let me tell you a story about Chris Pratt and his process.
00:04I was thinking of the Kurt Russell story.
00:11Tell me about his process.
00:12When Chris was laying back after work, after a hard day of working maybe an hour and a
00:18half doing some lines and hanging out in his trailer, you know, doing whatever he does
00:22in there.
00:23And then he's...
00:24Actually, he doesn't hang out.
00:25He hangs out on set all the time.
00:26I do give you props for that.
00:27You're hanging out.
00:28You get the pickles over your eyes.
00:29Pickles?
00:30Why would a person put pickles on their eyes?
00:31Cucumbers.
00:32They are cucumbers.
00:33Cucumbers.
00:34You're getting your head massaged.
00:35No, I wasn't even...
00:36My head was...
00:37I was getting my hair frosted.
00:38So I had foils in my hair.
00:39You had foils in your hair.
00:40You're sitting back there.
00:41So a PA comes in and goes, Chris, we have Coronas.
00:42Do you want a Corona?
00:43I was like, do you have any tequila?
00:44And he goes, yeah, I'll bring you one.
00:45So he brings me a tequila.
00:46Okay.
00:47I have tequila and lime.
00:59Frosted tips.
01:00Feet up.
01:01Nails being done.
01:02No, I think they were tanning my hands.
01:05Okay.
01:06Tanning your hands?
01:07That is what does.
01:08So much worse.
01:09I thought the nails was bad.
01:12Okay, tanning your hands.
01:13And then Kurt Russell came in, and you said...
01:16No, no, no. Kurt Russell came in. He's down at the end of the trailer. We didn't share
01:21the trailer at the time. And the PA came in, and there's this thing called a forced call.
01:25A forced call means they're going to bring you in less than 12 hours after you leave.
01:32So you drive an hour home, stay home for 10 hours, drive an hour back, and you're there
01:3712 hours later. That's called a turnaround time. But a forced call means they're going
01:41to bring you in a little earlier. They're allowed to do that once a week, they have
01:44to ask. And if they do it a second time, you get a little bit of a bonus in your paycheck.
01:49But they always have to ask. And so the guy said, Chris, we're thinking of maybe forcing
01:53your call tomorrow. We want to make sure that's OK. And I was a little annoyed, because I
01:57knew that it was a long, the set was like an hour away. If I leave now, it's an hour,
02:02I'm only going to get like eight hours at home and come back, because technically I'm
02:06still working right now. Because I'd looked at the on the sign up, they'd had me leaving
02:10an hour earlier, but I was getting my handstand. And I go, I'm still working right now. And
02:15I hear, oh, yeah, real hard at work down there, kid.
02:19Working!
02:20Oh, yeah, look at you.
02:21I'm working!
02:22I'm working here. My feet kicked up getting my handstand.
02:25Oh, look at me working!
02:28With a tequila. Real tough gig, kid.
02:31You're right.
02:34You're right, Mr. Russell. Certainly, I'll be here. I'll be here early.
02:38Because I'm tough like Kurt Russell.
02:40You ate an oatmeal in the middle of the interview.
02:41No, I'm not.
02:43I'm watching you do it.
02:45I did not eat any oatmeal in the middle of the interview.
02:47How did you see that?
02:49I did it incredibly slowly.
02:52I'm sure I'm invisible.
02:54Hi, Drax.
02:57Damn.
