3:29

3:34
land with nuts for the truck they're literally nuts for your truck where do you put them he's like "Put them on
3:40
where the license." Right am I right you put them on
3:46
on the trailer hitch exactly why are Why does everybody know about them and not have them
3:52
you don't want them you drive a truck and you don't want any trucks what about
3:57
truck lab
4:03
listen we should do this that would be startling
4:10
i truly like wait I was picturing a bag of like chalk nuts oh no just look it up
4:18
man i can't wait i was like you think I could get it from IKEA do you The IKEA
4:23
was would be smooth i don't know if you want that for my car do you think it would be okay
4:29
for my little Kia soul yes your soul has [Applause]
4:34
just tiny ones that I don't think is a big ball kind of car
4:40
welcome to the panel welcome to the panel on Friday
4:46
this is the joke of every panel you know when you were saying earlier you you'd be looking at the window for I
4:53
would be across the street looking at you from the other window really were you homeschooled no or just locked in
4:59
the house different i was just a sad uh boyfriendless nerd uh that liked to play
5:07
guitar and write songs about boys that's hot kind of no it was not hot in the '9s
5:12
no just kidding well that was very Winona Rider was she your hero cuz she was my hero too no I was kind of
5:18
slightly [ __ ] and I wore all corduroy by choice or because your mom made it is
5:24
that homemade corduroy i don't know about that one this is my choice oh well you know listen I'm never going to judge
5:30
anybody i can see the sadness in your eyes just it's just corduroy is a
5:35
disgusting fabric i mean I just cannot the idea of wearing corduroy or being
5:41
around corduroy is literally repulsive to me so sensorally I wouldn't want to like touch you at that age which is
5:47
probably good and then I was across the street yeah so we would have been like this so I'm like
5:53
"Don't come over don't do this." Holding up nose like do not
5:59
leave me alone i mean I for me my heart goes out to any awkward teenager because
6:05
I feel like you are at the prime of your life and when you're when people are adults they will write about this time
6:11
that you're experiencing in your life as the heyday and yet you right now are not enjoying every single moment of being
6:17
you and that makes me sad uh if I could only go back I'd be like "Girl girl you
6:23
don't know what big guys are just love what you have please." And I
6:30
get it it's probably something you know it's all societal especially with girls and um that's why my daughter will never
6:35
have a phone i'm not kidding i wanted to ask that about your your
6:42
little one but your daughter how old is your daughter she's eight years old so do you from certain things is she also
6:49
homeschooled or she's not she goes to a very hippie school where they do in fact have roller skinny lessons as curriculum
6:56
so yeah that's the kind of mom I am um you know I definitely shelter her from I
7:02
don't show her like violent things when people come up to me and they're like "Here's my three-year-old he loves
7:07
Supernatural." I'm like "What are you saying?" I am not going to tell you how to parent
7:12
but I am concerned um it feels a little ambitious for uh a kid but yeah she she
7:18
definitely stays within her rating group um for her consumption which I appreciate that the world does that for
7:25
us um I let her game probably too much but I never let her watch YouTube
7:30
unsupervised because I've started there i know it's there um she doesn't do any social media but
7:38
you know again I think as parents we just need to educate ourselves and be like what are we comfortable with and
7:43
make sure that creepy strangers aren't playing games with them and I think they'll be fine you know um so yeah but
7:49
I am I'm pretty particular i don't share pictures of her online anymore you know I did early on just to funnel money to
7:55
her um and I run i'm just kidding um and so then you know she's all done
8:02
like she didn't choose to be publicly known so she shouldn't be right and so that's just my choice again other
8:08
parents might choose differently but we are all just doing our best right and if we if we have it in our mind I'm trying
8:14
to do our my best i'm probably better than like three three other people out there right so um the fact that I'm
8:20
conscious of it and I understand you know having been you know in the public eye and been on social media for so long
8:27
I'm like this is very destructive and I'm an adult so let's not do this until you're older so the one thing I do
8:33
actually is I do put like you know what is it like $30 or $40 into a bank
8:39
account automatically goes into a bank account that I have set up it's a savings account that I will give her
8:44
when she's 16 if she doesn't use social media until then and so by the time she's 16 there should be like I don't
8:50
know $5,000 in there which to me is like that is a fortune for especially a 16-year-old so this is incentive for her
8:57
to just not you know even $10 a month would do it like you just add up the month so that's the one thing I will
9:03
drive my daughter to be a better person and that's my parent advice for today
9:09
[Applause]
9:14
were there I mean when I was like eight or nine I accidentally watched Robocop
9:20
oh my mom told me to aliens yes i remember being traumatized and then she
9:26
was like "Just go sit outside honey." And she So I just sat on the bench i remember
9:32
just sitting on the bench while alien was like "My younger brother was fine with it but I was so But I was traumatized by seeing Bambi and you know
9:40
I was like just I mean that poor I don't know i don't want to think about it her mom's mom died why why are we showing
9:47
this to children?" Um yeah i mean listen I I was Every kid is different and
9:52
that's the hard part and the good part so you just have to kind of like the one thing that I do think is really
9:58
important is just listen to your kid you know like there's no there's no spoiling them there's no being too easy on them
10:05
in my opinion because you're the safe thing you're the thing in their life that they would hopefully come back to
10:10
if they're in a bad place and if you're not safe then they're not going to do that and so I've always that's my
10:15
rationale to you know being a little more probably lenient and a little too paying attention to their feelings
10:22
before but you know she's going to be need therapy at some point anyway so
10:27
like let's just have fun i think at a certain point when you are a certain age you get to like uh therapy
10:34
is just like you know eating breakfast in the morning yeah he did yeah he did everybody get a little get little touch
10:39
of it okay i remember um as well watching I was very very young when I saw that the scene in Bambi but I felt
10:47
something like [Applause] I am Scottish i mean the way there are
10:54
Scottish people like prone dear death like confused I feel nothing but mobile
11:00
cop I was like oh god it's like I really like that's that's an intense that was intense that scene's intense but I was
11:07
like oh okay I remember seeing splash too young and I was like titty you know like
11:13
you know you remember these things you're like oh that's interesting as a kid you don't quite understand what you're doing but you're being exposed to
11:19
something you're like I don't understand it but I guess that's cool Like I don't know i don't know in Scotland of the 80s
11:25
and we ate a lot of microwave food and it's true a lot of I've had so many swans at dinners oh we're not
11:31
decomposing forever when we're gone no those apple those apple pies they don't go away y'all it's like gum they're
11:38
stuck in there that's it forever this is how we're going to look until the end of time let's hand it to fan questions
11:45
shall we sure let's do some You guys are Would you rather listen to me talk about ball sex
11:51
okay ask some ball sex oriented questions and maybe I'll get to you i'm
11:58
all about that that ball life or not right now as it seems um there's a mic here you guys yeah you guys there's
12:04
there seems to be one individual mic on this oh there's one over here if you want to go to the outfield
12:13
the shame mic i don't know it's like the shame whoever's brave enough to get up
12:18
to the shame you will yes look at this okay you can cut in line there it's like
12:23
when you go to a counter and there's like seven people in line at one register there's none and then you're just like "Is this Can I go is it going
12:30
to look over there?" And then you cut and you're like "Hey this is okay." Although I feel like in Trader Joe's
12:35
they act to play they're like "Come." I know trader Joe's they just want you to hang out there all day i don't know what
12:40
these people are on but I'm not selling it's very strict yeah when I first got to LA I was like why are you smiling at
12:46
me i know it's the Joe special
12:51
sorry my friend hello my love what is your name hi I'm Peter hi
12:56
love your work what was your inspiration for The Guild it was a really cool show i liked it oh thank you i am currently
13:03
working on a reunion movie that will release the 20th anniversary in two years so I
13:11
I will probably start Hollywood um but uh that'll be happening
13:18
probably early next year um I was inspired because I was an actor and I
13:24
had a couple of really good successes early in my career and then core kids and I was so upset about that and
13:31
suppressed and I felt rejected for who I was in a very acute way cuz I listen I'm
13:37
a very specific flavor of person and Hollywood who generally doesn't love the flavor I am because it's like there's I
13:42
don't recognize this flavor of lady what names her so I basically got addicted to
13:49
World of Warcraft my brother got me into it and I would play like 8 nine hours a day and I interacted with tons of people
13:55
i had also been addicted to other online games before that like Puzzle Pirates and a couple of others so this was a
14:01
long running thing because again I was homeschooled and lonely and continued to be lonely deep inside
14:08
so I then because I was kind of bored and sad and obviously depressed I started doing a writing class because I
14:15
had never been before but I was too afraid to ever start and I did a sketch writing class cuz I'm like well I can do little sketches and and out of that um
14:23
uh out of that came um my teacher and I made friends and she was like well let's have an accountability team you know and
14:30
I think it was the secret which just turned out to be like didn't the the secret creator turn out to be a fraud
14:36
and stole millions of dollars they were yeah it was a great philosophy will not recommend the book but because of that
14:42
book going around Hollywood everyone like we're going to take our guests to the entire I just showed up every week for pancakes and I was the only one who
14:49
said instead of like I met a director here or I'm getting my script rewritten i played eight hours and I rated
14:56
multiple core and that was made me ashamed so I finally was like well let me just write something I know and I
15:01
knew gamers so that's the only reason it got written and I wrote it as a TV show and when I showed it to Hollywood again
15:07
they were like and at that time it was so early people didn't even understand they could talk
15:12
to each other on a computer i'm not even kidding they're like so how does this work
15:18
yeah I'm not kidding i'm that old um so and and then my friend was like "Let's
15:23
just do this new YouTube thing." And that's how it happened so um I love the characters i did six seasons and a bunch
15:30
of comics and then I burnt out so bad but I haven't touched it since like 2013
15:35
and then just um recently I was doing The Guild musical we did a reading and hopefully we're going to do more with
15:41
that and I got inspired by the characters again so I have an idea for a movie i'm going to write it we'll see if I can get it made and that'll be it but
15:47
thank you for watching it no matter what
15:54
shame oh shame shame let's go over to shame
16:02
shame shame shame shame shame shame shame hello what's your name so I'm
16:07
Heidi hi and uh this year is celebrated in my 40th birthday happy birthday thank
16:13
you and Yeah so I wanted to well I was going to ask you who is the person you
16:19
would say is the geekiest you've ever met in entertainment industry but I also
16:24
just wanted to say thank you my dad couldn't come to this panel because he's beating John Rice Davies and don't blame
16:30
him for you know prioritizing no no no no judgment at all but yeah we he loves
16:35
we love geeking out together he loves that we are who we are and you're a household name and he I was coming up to
16:40
this panel and he was like "Okay get your geek out bitch." Yes your dad called me a [ __ ] that's right okay
16:47
[ __ ] let's go listen I see where I I did that on Supernatural i did peace out [ __ ] and I have
16:55
It's a good show i'm sure none of you all question that but because I said that I tend to say
17:01
the word I sle around a lot especially when I'm streaming on Twitch and I'm like "Stop it you know you're better than this." And I'm like "Wow weird
17:10
it's better than a c word for sure i don't sle around the sea road that would be interesting for Americans so the
17:17
geekiest person I've ever met wow that's really hard you know i mean I know my friend Mo Weaten is very geeky and he's
17:24
and I think probably he's probably one of them you know but you'd be surprised about a lot of people play board games
17:30
that you wouldn't expect a lot of people play video games especially younger i mean like it's funny being part of a
17:37
generation where even video games weren't like completely ubiquitous and now my daughter's growing up and she'd
17:42
rather game any time of the day than play you know watch any TV or do any
17:48
literally anything else which is not a great thing um but yeah it's it's so funny that gaming has become part of
17:54
culture in a way that isn't niche isn't like strange at all it's literally just
17:59
culture and I think it's exciting and but it also is weird for people like us and probably people who like the
18:06
generation or generation before where it's like well look at these whippers snappers coming in and making what I
18:11
think is cool like my stuff's popular well now we've got 8-year-olds who are just like immersed in Fortnite and
18:17
Minecraft and all that stuff and there's big movies and I don't know i I I would I look at it as a positive thing but um
18:24
I think it's so cool that you can share that with your dad yeah yeah it's been a lot of fun yeah well thank you thank you
18:30
for asking yeah welcome to your 40s three decades good shape question over here in the popular tent
18:37
what's your name hi my name is Patrick first I want to say I was addicted to World War I when the guild came out and
18:43
all my buddies and I we waited for it to drop everything oh man that means so much it was so funny and so thankful
18:52
come out cuz [Applause]
18:58
[Music] you know I'm not in charge of Dr horble i was smart enough not to sell the guild
19:03
with the rights to the guild and so I can make a movie and a play and all that stuff now 10 years later you know and
19:08
that's pretty cool um Dr horble happened because I emailed Cole emailed Joss Weeden because I knew him from Buffy and
19:16
thank you it's a good show that was my first job um and because of my
19:22
relationship with him from Buffy I just cold emailed everybody in the world about the guild because I was like "This is clearly the best thing I ever made."
19:30
And he um when we were doing like a straight line for his company Muti I I
19:35
he was like I actually watched it and I was like "What?" And he said "Yeah I want to do something like this too
19:40
because now we're unemployed and all these producers are treating us like crap and I want to do something." And that's he then he paired up with his
19:46
brother and sister and sister-in-law and other brother and that's how Dr marvel happened and I all I had two emails in
19:54
my whole career that I that were like so short and so succinct and changed my
19:59
life it was Joss can you sing Jay that was one email and then the other one was
20:04
from Joel Hodson from MST3K um Mr science Theater hey would you like to be
20:10
an MST3K and I I wanted to be a forester and I was like you know just like
20:16
throwing up on my keyboard in excitement which I should not do it's a medical issue
20:22
um yeah and that's how it came to be and it was just a wonderful experiment and like you guys are not in Hollywood right
20:28
now but I promise you it's a terrible place right now after the strikes after the fires after all the production
20:34
leaving Los Angeles it is like the saddest wasteland of talented people who aren't doing what they love people are
20:41
having to change jobs people you probably really admire a lot haven't worked in multiple years and it is just
20:48
a really bad time in the industry all the streaming stuff kind of ruined the
20:54
way that people make money ai is knocking at the door it's very very complicated and very challenging time to
21:00
be in the industry and what I think is going to happen is what happened with me and Dr horble and the guild people have
21:08
to create if you're there for the art which I am i'm not a business person i proved it over and over again but I love
21:14
making art i love making things that delight people and I never want to just go through the gatekeepers cuz the
21:20
gatekeepers of Hollywood especially tend to make things that are not that not the things that I think I know that people
21:26
will love they don't like to make niche content they don't believe in like the appeal of doing thing things differently
21:31
they want to do things that are proven to make money and I get it but I think artists are getting together and they're
21:37
making stuff outside the box and we're going to have some amazing content coming out in the next several years
21:42
because people are just going to pick up a camera and make a story just like I did and so you know when I read an
21:48
article now about this guy who's he covers the business of Hollywood he's like "YouTubers are making multicams
21:53
just as good as uh TV and more popular than NBC." And I'm like "I did that
21:59
i did that i already did it great okay great i'm glad you're covering them." Awesome
22:05
i'm not bitter anyway thank you thank you hey Outcast what's your name hi I'm Will hey
22:13
Will do you think there could ever be a Charlie Blood supernatural spin-off oh my gosh
22:21
any message for Rainy Hollywood yes ask me
22:26
now here's the thing i mean uh Supernatural ended 5 years ago I think
22:32
and it's been so sad um to have such a vibrant community growing literally
22:37
growing over the years and not have a piece of that out there and they're rebooting literally everything i can't
22:43
imagine there would be some iteration um what I would love is the Hollywood to acknowledge that you don't need to make
22:51
the lead a 19-year-old girl to have a reboot do you know what I'm saying i think that's where they think we need to
22:57
get young people in there today but I think everybody just wants to see the show and wants to see the wonderful
23:02
actors who you know and whatever iteration yes bring new cast in bring new people but it doesn't have to center
23:09
on new people to get people i I will say that the new Buffy reboot seems like
23:14
it's going to be incredible and that actor stays amazing but for Supernatural it's a different vibe like it's about
23:20
that family and the Winchesterers and outside of them all the other actors and
23:26
so I'm hoping that you know they smartly look and say a franchise that continues
23:31
to grow and people love it and they do it i don't I wouldn't want to be the lead to be honest with you i don't want
23:36
to work that hard it's too much i will say that Jared and Jess are the hardest working people and
23:43
they broke themselves with that show they would work until like 3:00 a.m on Friday and then be there at 6:00 a.m on Monday and they would do conventions on
23:49
the weekends and they would go and see their family that didn't even live in Vancouver and so like God bless just
23:55
make me the mentor i'll take care of those young people like you know they can stay up late i'll just work three or
24:01
four days a week and I'll be the most amazing character in the world because there's no Charlie there really is
24:10
so appreciate it thank you give me honor i appreciate it thank you so much hello what's your name hello my name's Alexia
24:17
and speaking of Supernatural me and my family love Supernatural yay i honestly
24:22
cried when you died oh thank you oh my it wasn't great but listen I die a lot
24:31
very good at it very killable I've been told so my question is is there
24:37
um part when you're working on the show was there a particular moment or an episode that really stuck out with you
24:42
like after the show ended um wait wait what was the best part about the end show ending what was Could you just
24:49
repeat moment that stuck with you while working through Supernatural towards the end of the show oh toward the end of the
24:55
show oh yeah well cuz you know I got brought back as alternative Charlie Popland Charlie and I mean it was it was
25:03
so nice to walk back on that set i literally started crying it felt like I was coming home and you know I say I
25:09
love making my own content and I I love it i love doing things out of the box with no boss and that's really where my
25:15
heart lies but Supernatural is like a family to me a safe space for me during
25:20
a really stressful time when I was kind of driving myself on the ground with overwork and stress and so being on that
25:27
set during the initial run it was just literally a refuge for me and going back on the set it was just like so touching
25:33
and wonderful and as a testament to how awesome Jared and um Jensen are almost
25:39
all the crew was the same the whole time on that show and that's just an amazing testament to how well they treated
25:45
people a and what a wonderful family it was b and so when you see the same camera operator and the same guy at
25:52
craft service and all this it's just like it's a family and that's what the show was on screen and off and that's
25:58
what I loved about being on it so as far as like being on the show toward the end you know it was it was hard because my
26:06
character came back and was like very tormented and um my favorite part was I
26:11
did an episode with Jared in the car where we talked about my past and I kind of like created a bridge for him i
26:18
didn't ever get an episode to create a bridge to Dean like that as my new character but being in the car with
26:24
Jared regardless of his broccoli farts which were absolutely
26:29
horrendous he also showed me a lot of Instagram videos of people smashing their balls on
26:36
things like not deliberately but like falling off things and I'd be like "What keep it
26:42
please please." Ah no oh I don't want to see people falling and busting their balls but kind of do other than that it
26:50
was a really awesome It felt like getting back in the groove of my character and just being part of the family in a way where I didn't have to
26:56
be like closed up and hostile i wish I'd gotten that opportunity with Dean um in
27:01
an episode toward the end but you know it's not my show and I'm there to service the wonderful story that they
27:06
told so yeah thank you for that question thank you thank you guys
27:14
what's your name you're way too well dressed for being in the in the wasteland but okay hi my name is Brienne
27:20
um I was wondering if you had a favorite funny memory from behind the scenes
27:26
during your time on my show boy I have a lot i think the funniest one is
27:31
everybody's got always tries to ask "What did your engines prank you?" And like until a certain point almost toward
27:38
the end of the run of OG Charlie I was like "What are you talking about i've never seen them prank anyone they're so
27:44
sweet and so gentlemanly and Jared can you know he picked me up like with one arm like seven times like he is a tree
27:50
of a man like seriously he's so sweet and I was like I they are so respectful
27:56
and they're from Dallas they're from They're Texas boys you know so they are Texas they are They are very respectful
28:03
to ladies and then my last episode before I got killed off um I acted as
28:09
Misha and during his closeup doing something very heartfelt Jared was
28:16
literally giving him a wet willy and a wedgie at the same time
28:21
and I was like what is going on here and like I took at when we were sitting on
28:27
the sideline after shooting that I turned to Misha i was like how do you put up with that he's like
28:33
I don't know so like getting to see experience the
28:38
the the pranks not myself was very fun but I would not want to be Misha he's
28:45
very hot so it might be fun for a minute but no no no thank you anyway thank you for that question thank you all right
28:51
bye [Applause] what's up jp uh and not so silent love stol
29:01
but I'll go ahead and ask uh what was it like working with you Patrick Harris in that project he is such a diva oh my god
29:10
finally I can unwrap what I felt for so long my god like just the writers that
29:17
he had on this web series were like seven page long like only red tomatoes
29:22
were a stupid thing to put in there like most tomatoes are red no I'm just kidding he's amazing he's literally one
29:28
of the most kind talented I mean I don't know what else to say i was so
29:33
intimidated because I was kind of in love with him from 50 and so like seven-year-old me was like
29:42
and just you know being that exper him and Nathan just being so experienced and
29:47
I will say that I I grew up in a in a in a cage as I said before and I really
29:53
wasn't around people and my confidence about my acting was like super low and so being intimidated was just my go-to
30:00
and I had a real anxiety disorder that was absolutely out of control until probably like 5 years ago so um
30:07
definitely got I'm glad I got working on that medically but at the same time they were so kind and supportive it made it
30:14
so fun to kind of release all of that and just be in the moment um I won't say
30:20
that I was totally comfortable all the time because they're just so consumate and I will say that Neil Patrick Harris walks like a panther
30:27
and if you ever watch him walk you will agree with me um and Nathan is just Nathan like he is uh the best hugger in
30:34
the business well Doug Jones it's it's a tie between them it's a different Doug is sort of like he's he's more rubber
30:41
bands and Nathan's more like a teddy bear you know they're good hugs anyway
30:48
thank you for your questions thank you shall we go go i better see you guys speak all right yeah let's do it yeah
30:54
study hall what's up hi my name is Abby hi and um I wanted to say thank you for
31:00
playing Charlie because I kind of found it during like a weird time and it kind
31:05
of like just like made me happy i was like "Oh my god it's Charlie thank you so much." But my question was I wanted
31:11
to ask you um what was it like coming on like the first set she's like "When I first found you it was like during the
31:17
Leviathan series and you're just like this happy golucky character like faced with like issues like how is that like
31:25
for you to come on the set and do that?" You know I only took that role because I it was season 7 they offered it to me
31:32
when I was launching my company Geek and Sunundry which I and I was like I can't leave town thank you i can't leave town
31:37
and I read the script and I was like well I have to do this a because of the character b because it's season 7 they're going to get cancelled this
31:43
season and so the fun part of that was that the
31:48
first uh day of shooting was just me doing the dancing walking around doing all that stuff and so it kind of felt
31:53
like my set so I naively was confident because it was just all all about me and it was kind of a privilege to be able to
31:59
start you know as a character because every character should be all about them right even if you have one line that
32:04
person has a life right but it's hard as an actor to do that on a set that you're not like you know you don't own so yeah
32:11
it was an amazing thing and the people who directed and Johnny um who directed
32:16
it just made me feel at home and that's like when you're relaxed you do your best work creatively and in person so
32:22
yeah thank you all right we're going to speed it we've got three minutes let's go we're going to do it we have three four questions let's go
32:30

32:50
that they were it was coming to an end and I know they wanted to do a spin-off with Faith and everybody got excited
32:55
about that but then Eliza decided not to do it which is fine it's her life um but you know it was a little up and down but
33:01
I will say that spirits were always high and the fact that it was just we all kind of knew you know this was special
33:09
