00:00White Lotus, the reaction to it that people are reacting to your character so
00:07much. Why do you think it's resonating with people? Why is he resonating?
00:10People really enjoy Saxon because he's so outlandish and zero filter and he is
00:17I mean they haven't even seen it there's two episodes they've seen. Tonight's
00:21three. But that's pretty amazing. A lot more is to come but he's also really
00:25enjoyable to hate you know he's he's he's also the worst so it makes it fun
00:31to hate and you know that's that's Mike's writing he's he's brilliant he
00:36knows what he's doing with each and every one of his characters and I'm
00:40excited to see for the audience to see the rest of Saxon's story. I know your dad
00:45said the apple didn't fall far from the tree you being so naked on the show. What
00:50did you tell your mom before she watched the show? I didn't tell them anything. And you just
00:54let them watch it? Yeah I mean they're fans of White Lotus they know what's
00:58they know what's to come to a degree they didn't know that but yeah I mean it
01:04was I don't know why my dad said that it was I saw that tell me he was doing that.
01:08Did he walk around naked a lot? No I think he's referencing his movies like with
01:12Terminator when he was naked but I don't know. Your brother-in-law? We just got to
01:19talk about that. Were you shocked when he said he was looking at your D? He's a
01:24comedian he's funny he's smart. So he wasn't serious? I don't know you have to
01:28ask him ask him someone has footage of him probably watching it someone you know.
01:36What did you tell Abby before she watched it? Did she know what was gonna
01:42be? She knew because her family is from Alabama they're from the South and they
01:49do viewing parties themselves for to support me to watch other shows that
01:54I've done. So I did tell her so that she could warn her family back in Alabama
02:00with their big watch group that yes there was some stuff that they should
02:05maybe close their eyes. So she knew something was coming but she didn't know
02:09to the extent. Did they close their eyes and what is their reaction been? Her mom
02:13sent me a text with the emojis with the eyes the hands over the eyes so.
