01:56 ,348 --> 00:01:57,291

Marc Preston: When did you head to LA?

59

01:58 ,521 --> 00:02:01,869

Brec Bassinger: I went to school in Saginaw up until my

60

02:01 ,989 --> 00:02:04,835

Brec Bassinger: freshman year and even eighth grade I kind

61

02:04 ,855 --> 00:02:06,960

Brec Bassinger: of was in and out of public school.

62

02:07 ,663 --> 00:02:10,514

Brec Bassinger: And then freshman year I booked Bell and

63

02:10 ,534 --> 00:02:11,659

Brec Bassinger: the Bulldogs, which was the Nickelodeon

64

02:11 ,679 --> 00:02:14,347

Brec Bassinger: show I was on, and then after that it was

65

02:14 ,387 --> 00:02:15,711

Brec Bassinger: home schooling for the rest of it.

66

02:16 ,361 --> 00:02:16,822

Marc Preston: So what's that?

67

02:17 ,123 --> 00:02:18,648

Marc Preston: I've always been curious what that's like.

68

02:18 ,708 --> 00:02:20,453

Marc Preston: Some people love that because it kind of

69

02:20 ,473 --> 00:02:22,699

Marc Preston: gives them the freedom to kind of do

70

02:22 ,739 --> 00:02:24,406

Marc Preston: whatever, and then others are like man, I

71

02:24 ,426 --> 00:02:25,992

Marc Preston: really wanted that high school experience.

72

02:26 ,112 --> 00:02:27,940

Marc Preston: What kind of where did you fall in on that?

73

02:28 ,281 --> 00:02:30,086

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, I mean, I've always been one who

74

02:30 ,166 --> 00:02:31,670

Brec Bassinger: liked school, not just from like the

75

02:31 ,711 --> 00:02:34,037

Brec Bassinger: education perspective, but also the social

76

02:34 ,137 --> 00:02:35,000

Brec Bassinger: aspect of school too.

77

02:36 ,242 --> 00:02:38,185

Brec Bassinger: So I definitely I feel like there's pros

78

02:38 ,225 --> 00:02:38,626

Brec Bassinger: and cons.

79

02:38 ,666 --> 00:02:40,869

Brec Bassinger: You do, you don't get that homecoming

02:40 ,949 --> 00:02:42,932

81

02:42 ,992 --> 00:02:44,435

Brec Bassinger: able to graduate high school two years

82

02:44 ,495 --> 00:02:46,663

Brec Bassinger: early Because I just didn't take summer

83

02:46 ,703 --> 00:02:48,467

Brec Bassinger: breaks and did it at my own pace.

84

02:48 ,928 --> 00:02:51,854

Brec Bassinger: So I definitely feel like pros and cons.

85

02:52 ,522 --> 00:02:54,408

Marc Preston: You've been in LA since you were, I guess,

86

02:55 ,110 --> 00:02:56,756

Marc Preston: with like 13, 14?

87

02:56 ,796 --> 00:02:58,000

88

02:58 ,324 --> 00:02:59,134

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, I went to LA.

89

02:59 ,476 --> 00:03:01,001

Brec Bassinger: I went to LA for the very first time when I

90

03:01 ,021 --> 00:03:04,041

Brec Bassinger: was 13, booked my first job and then

91

03:04 ,923 --> 00:03:07,137

Brec Bassinger: officially moved out there, got a place out

92

03:07 ,177 --> 00:03:09,675

Brec Bassinger: there at 15 when the Nickelodeon show got

93

03:09 ,715 --> 00:03:12,002

Brec Bassinger: picked up and I needed to live out there.

94

03:12 ,323 --> 00:03:13,126

Marc Preston: Now, did you live in that?

95

03:13 ,215 --> 00:03:15,423

Marc Preston: I know there is an apartment complex out

96

03:15 ,443 --> 00:03:17,382

Marc Preston: there that every young actor seems to live

97

03:17 ,462 --> 00:03:17,503

Marc Preston: in.

98

03:17 ,595 --> 00:03:19,221

Marc Preston: It's like this whole ecosystem.

99

03:20 ,135 --> 00:03:20,918

Marc Preston: What's it called again?

100

03:21 ,755 --> 00:03:22,499

Brec Bassinger: The Oakwood.

101

03:22 ,916 --> 00:03:23,812

Marc Preston: OK, yeah, yeah, yeah.

102

03:24 ,055 --> 00:03:25,681

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, funny enough, it's now been bought

103

03:25 ,741 --> 00:03:28,081

Brec Bassinger: out by Ava apartment, so it's no longer

104

03:28 ,221 --> 00:03:30,121

Brec Bassinger: Oakwood, but people still call it Oakwood

105

03:30 ,141 --> 00:03:30,795

Brec Bassinger: because it does it.

106

03:30 ,815 --> 00:03:32,522

Brec Bassinger: Just that name will forever be with it.

107

03:33 ,496 --> 00:03:35,622

Brec Bassinger: I never lived there but I had many of

108

03:35 ,742 --> 00:03:37,697

Brec Bassinger: friends who lived there and I would go over

109

03:37 ,757 --> 00:03:40,906

Brec Bassinger: there for the game nights at the clubhouse

110

03:41 ,115 --> 00:03:44,563

Brec Bassinger: and karaoke and it was quite the social

111

03:44 ,623 --> 00:03:46,146

Brec Bassinger: scene at the Oakwood.

112

03:46 ,975 --> 00:03:48,361

Marc Preston: See, if you're young, it seems like it's

113

03:48 ,715 --> 00:03:51,404

Marc Preston: good to be able to be a kid at least you

114

03:51 ,444 --> 00:03:53,722

Marc Preston: know, and that when you go home you know.

115

03:54 ,315 --> 00:03:56,442

Marc Preston: But it's got to be a weird thing with

116

03:56 ,462 --> 00:03:58,278

Marc Preston: everybody around you who's doing TV and

117

03:58 ,298 --> 00:03:58,579

04:04 ,598 --> 00:04:06,484

04:06 ,504 --> 00:04:06,965

Marc Preston: stepdad.

121

04:07 ,195 --> 00:04:09,201

Marc Preston: I mean, you know, fellow Texan, you know.

122

04:09 ,242 --> 00:04:10,084

Marc Preston: So y'all kind of.

123

04:10 ,515 --> 00:04:14,886

Marc Preston: So did you when you knew that he was going

124

04:14 ,906 --> 00:04:17,743

Marc Preston: to be cast and doing that, did you like go

125

04:17 ,783 --> 00:04:19,479

Marc Preston: through like some of his old movies to kind

126

04:19 ,499 --> 00:04:21,277

Marc Preston: of catch up on what Luke was all about and

127

04:21 ,318 --> 00:04:22,342

Marc Preston: kind of his background?

128

04:22 ,775 --> 00:04:23,277

Brec Bassinger: Yeah.

129

04:23 ,779 --> 00:04:26,137

Brec Bassinger: So from the very beginning, like the first

130

04:26 ,217 --> 00:04:27,923

Brec Bassinger: meeting I had with our showrunner, jeff

131

04:27 ,963 --> 00:04:31,942

Brec Bassinger: Johns, he mentioned that his dream Pat

132

04:31 ,982 --> 00:04:35,258

Brec Bassinger: Dugan would be Luke Wilson and I

133

04:35 ,299 --> 00:04:37,004

Brec Bassinger: immediately went home and looked up who he

134

04:37 ,044 --> 00:04:38,379

Brec Bassinger: was, saw that he was from Texas.

135

04:39 ,235 --> 00:04:41,602

Brec Bassinger: But as soon as I saw his face I remembered

136

04:41 ,642 --> 00:04:44,742

Brec Bassinger: him from stuff, specifically Legally Blonde.

137

04:44 ,795 --> 00:04:47,164

Brec Bassinger: That was like what I most knew him from.

138

04:47 ,315 --> 00:04:49,783

Brec Bassinger: I grew up watching that movie, absolutely

139

04:50 ,144 --> 00:04:51,337

Brec Bassinger: loved that movie to this day.

140

04:53 ,215 --> 00:04:53,958

Brec Bassinger: So we finally got.

141

04:54 ,399 --> 00:04:56,185

Brec Bassinger: We actually met for the first time.

142

04:56 ,575 --> 00:05:00,216

Brec Bassinger: Funny enough, it was on Jeff's birthday and

143

05:00 ,376 --> 00:05:04,986

Brec Bassinger: we went to the facility that built Stripe

144

05:05 ,026 --> 00:05:05,587

Brec Bassinger: the Robot.

145

05:05 ,647 --> 00:05:07,760

Brec Bassinger: In our show we have a practical 16 foot

146

05:07 ,820 --> 00:05:10,701

Brec Bassinger: robot and we went to see the robot for the

147

05:10 ,741 --> 00:05:12,718

Brec Bassinger: first time in LA and Luke and I got to meet

148

05:12 ,758 --> 00:05:16,078

Brec Bassinger: and I was so intimidated we're looking back

149

05:16 ,138 --> 00:05:18,535

Brec Bassinger: at so funny because Luke is just like the

150

05:18 ,596 --> 00:05:22,306

Brec Bassinger: sweetest, most humble, like and in the best

151

05:22 ,386 --> 00:05:25,524

Brec Bassinger: way like average Jack guy ever.

152

05:26 ,335 --> 00:05:29,044

Brec Bassinger: But because of his resume and the people he

153

05:29 ,064 --> 00:05:31,642

Brec Bassinger: had worked with, I was nervous to meet him.

154

05:31 ,735 --> 00:05:34,543

Brec Bassinger: And then, on set showing up, I was even

155

05:34 ,584 --> 00:05:36,641

Brec Bassinger: more intimidated to see how he had worked

156

05:36 ,735 --> 00:05:38,422

Brec Bassinger: Cause you know he had been on huge sets

157

05:38 ,535 --> 00:05:41,156

Brec Bassinger: like Wes Anderson films and iconic, iconic

158

05:41 ,177 --> 00:05:46,339

Brec Bassinger: movies, next to Reese Witherspoon, but he

159

05:46 ,941 --> 00:05:49,476

Brec Bassinger: it's been so cool to see not only him, but

160

05:49 ,677 --> 00:05:51,697

Brec Bassinger: Amy Smart, who plays my mom, who also has a

161

05:51 ,757 --> 00:05:54,959

Brec Bassinger: very impressive resume at how they have

162

05:55 ,159 --> 00:06:00,223

Brec Bassinger: balanced their stardom with their normal

163

06:00 ,284 --> 00:06:00,926

Brec Bassinger: lives as well.

164

06:01 ,115 --> 00:06:02,921

Brec Bassinger: And they it's truly showed me that I can.

165

06:03 ,855 --> 00:06:06,143

Brec Bassinger: You can be a successful actor and still be

166

06:06 ,203 --> 00:06:07,499

Brec Bassinger: humble and a great person.

167

06:09 ,215 --> 00:06:10,942

Brec Bassinger: So, as intimidating as it was at the

168

06:10 ,962 --> 00:06:12,760

Brec Bassinger: beginning, they've taught me so much and

169

06:12 ,800 --> 00:06:14,359

Brec Bassinger: I'm so blessed to get to work with them.

170

06:14 ,535 --> 00:06:16,001

Marc Preston: Yeah, I mean Amy Smart kind of had the.

171

06:16 ,315 --> 00:06:17,780

Marc Preston: She's kind of had that arc where she kind

172

06:17 ,821 --> 00:06:19,820

Marc Preston: of started where you are right now.

173

06:20 ,095 --> 00:06:21,861

Marc Preston: She was doing the teen and you know college

174

06:22 ,021 --> 00:06:25,201

Marc Preston: age, you know stuff and it's.

175

06:25 ,421 --> 00:06:26,816

Marc Preston: My kids and I were catching up on some of

176

06:26 ,836 --> 00:06:29,516

06:31 ,764 --> 00:06:34,002

Marc Preston: thing, so but you're on the DC side of

179

06:34 ,082 --> 00:06:34,343

Marc Preston: things.

180

06:34 ,435 --> 00:06:36,563

Marc Preston: So, kind of going back in your origin story,

181

06:36 ,816 --> 00:06:38,421

Marc Preston: I was kind of curious now, when you were

182

06:38 ,441 --> 00:06:40,119

Marc Preston: growing up, when you were in school, when

183

06:40 ,139 --> 00:06:41,437

Marc Preston: you were going to school, what were you

184

06:41 ,478 --> 00:06:41,900

Marc Preston: involved in?

185

06:41 ,975 --> 00:06:43,620

Marc Preston: Were you studious?

186

06:43 ,901 --> 00:06:45,597

Marc Preston: Were you doing that thing, or were you kind

187

06:45 ,637 --> 00:06:48,024

Marc Preston: of also into your extracurriculars and

188

06:48 ,064 --> 00:06:48,385

Marc Preston: whatnot?

189

06:50 ,098 --> 00:06:50,279

Brec Bassinger: Both.

190

06:51 ,322 --> 00:06:53,006

Brec Bassinger: I was too busy then.

191

06:53 ,175 --> 00:06:55,743

Brec Bassinger: I always, even to this day, spread myself

192

06:55 ,803 --> 00:06:57,801

Brec Bassinger: too thin among my many of hobbies.

193

06:57 ,895 --> 00:07:00,023

Brec Bassinger: I'm a woman with many, many hobbies, but I

194

07:00 ,063 --> 00:07:00,183

Brec Bassinger: did.

195

07:00 ,255 --> 00:07:03,164

Brec Bassinger: I always loved the studious side of things.

196

07:03 ,855 --> 00:07:06,463

Brec Bassinger: I was a math elite and went to districts

197

07:06 ,503 --> 00:07:08,379

Brec Bassinger: and regionals and won a gold medal doing

198

07:08 ,580 --> 00:07:09,583

Brec Bassinger: the math elite stuff.

199

07:09 ,895 --> 00:07:13,225

Brec Bassinger: But then also I did five events in track

200

07:13 ,265 --> 00:07:15,061

Brec Bassinger: and field and was a competitive cheerleader

201

07:15 ,135 --> 00:07:16,359

Brec Bassinger: and then a school cheerleader.

202

07:17 ,243 --> 00:07:19,141

Marc Preston: And Isn't competitive cheerleading really

203

07:19 ,181 --> 00:07:20,380

Marc Preston: big in the Dallas for Orth area.

204

07:20 ,876 --> 00:07:22,422

Marc Preston: I just seem to remember a lot of people

205

07:22 ,442 --> 00:07:22,683

Marc Preston: doing that.

206

07:23 ,055 --> 00:07:24,780

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, it's huge.

207

07:24 ,820 --> 00:07:27,187

Brec Bassinger: And it's so funny that back in the day

208

07:27 ,255 --> 00:07:28,721

Brec Bassinger: people didn't really think of cheerleading

209

07:28 ,761 --> 00:07:31,061

Brec Bassinger: as a sport, because I was literally like 10

210

07:31 ,121 --> 00:07:32,656

Brec Bassinger: years old, walking around with like an

211

07:32 ,777 --> 00:07:35,177

Brec Bassinger: eight pack because of how good of shape I

212

07:35 ,217 --> 00:07:38,095

Brec Bassinger: was in, because of my competitive cheer, I

213

07:38 ,135 --> 00:07:39,762

Brec Bassinger: could do like 50 pushups in a row.

214

07:39 ,875 --> 00:07:41,902

Brec Bassinger: I look back and I'm like, wow, I was such

215

07:41 ,943 --> 00:07:43,661

Brec Bassinger: an athlete I could not do that anymore.

216

07:45 ,358 --> 00:07:47,664

Brec Bassinger: But I definitely stayed busy between sports

217

07:48 ,346 --> 00:07:49,629

Brec Bassinger: and school.

218

07:50 ,195 --> 00:07:52,343

Brec Bassinger: And then actually there was a time where I

219

07:52 ,383 --> 00:07:54,442

Brec Bassinger: started acting class because when I was 10,

220

07:54 ,575 --> 00:07:55,678

Brec Bassinger: my mom finally let me do.

221

07:55 ,698 --> 00:07:58,718

Brec Bassinger: I had been annoying her about wanting to do

222

07:58 ,738 --> 00:07:59,581

Brec Bassinger: it for the longest time.

223

07:59 ,875 --> 00:08:01,517

Brec Bassinger: When I turned 10, she's like, okay, we'll

224

08:01 ,537 --> 00:08:02,782

Brec Bassinger: put you into some acting lessons.

225

08:03 ,396 --> 00:08:04,842

Brec Bassinger: And it was at that time I did.

226

08:04 ,935 --> 00:08:07,755

Brec Bassinger: I had to start picking and choosing and I

227

08:07 ,796 --> 00:08:10,244

Brec Bassinger: guess it was my eighth grade year.

228

08:10 ,755 --> 00:08:13,362

Brec Bassinger: I had to start giving stuff up to really

229

08:13 ,423 --> 00:08:14,385

Brec Bassinger: focus on acting.

230

08:14 ,855 --> 00:08:16,522

Marc Preston: What made you wanna look at acting as a

231

08:16 ,602 --> 00:08:16,843

Marc Preston: thing?

232

08:16 ,975 --> 00:08:18,802

Marc Preston: Was it just that you love watching the

233

08:18 ,862 --> 00:08:20,285

Marc Preston: movies and you're like I wanna do that?

234

08:20 ,395 --> 00:08:23,296

Marc Preston: Or you just was theater just you know the

235

08:23 ,336 --> 00:08:24,561

Marc Preston: kids that you liked hanging out with.

236

08:24 ,655 --> 00:08:25,398

Marc Preston: What got you into that?

237

08:26 ,637 --> 00:08:30,306

Brec Bassinger: This sounds very like oh, do, do, do, do,

238

08:30 ,446 --> 00:08:33,901

Brec Bassinger: clouds, dreams, but I really feel like it

239

08:33 ,941 --> 00:08:34,664

Brec Bassinger: was my destiny.

240

08:34 ,835 --> 00:08:37,403

Brec Bassinger: I don't think there was anything in

241

08:37 ,503 --> 00:08:39,961

Brec Bassinger: particular that made me like I wanna be

242

08:40 ,001 --> 00:08:42,179

Brec Bassinger: like this actress or I wanna be on a show

243

08:42 ,239 --> 00:08:42,741

Brec Bassinger: like this.

244

08:43 ,395 --> 00:08:44,961

Brec Bassinger: I, just from the time I was probably five

245

08:45 ,021 --> 00:08:46,638

Brec Bassinger: or six years old, people would come up to

246

08:46 ,678 --> 00:08:48,437

Brec Bassinger: me and they'd ask like, oh, what do you

247

08:48 ,457 --> 00:08:49,521

Brec Bassinger: wanna be when you're older?

248

08:50 ,095 --> 00:08:52,082

Brec Bassinger: And I literally would say I don't want to

249

08:52 ,122 --> 00:08:54,221

Brec Bassinger: be anything, I'm gonna be an actress.

250

08:54 ,675 --> 00:08:56,778

Brec Bassinger: I was a very sassy child but I just like

251

08:56 ,858 --> 00:08:58,557

Brec Bassinger: knew from a young age like this is what I

252

08:58 ,598 --> 00:08:59,542

Brec Bassinger: was destined to do.

253

08:59 ,675 --> 00:09:03,200

Brec Bassinger: I felt very called to do it and I do see

254

09:03 ,220 --> 00:09:05,557

Brec Bassinger: that as very much of a blessing, because LA

255

09:06 ,480 --> 00:09:09,778

Brec Bassinger: going there and there being so many blonde,

256

09:09 ,879 --> 00:09:11,944

Brec Bassinger: blue-eyed girls and I was just one of the

257

09:12 ,044 --> 00:09:13,838

Brec Bassinger: thousands, it could have been very

258

09:13 ,899 --> 00:09:14,541

Brec Bassinger: intimidating.

259

09:14 ,655 --> 00:09:15,879

Brec Bassinger: But I kind of just went in with the

260

09:16 ,000 --> 00:09:18,861

Brec Bassinger: attitude of like no, it might not be a

261

09:18 ,941 --> 00:09:21,039

Brec Bassinger: quick thing, it might be like a long-term

262

09:21 ,119 --> 00:09:24,417

Brec Bassinger: 10, 20 years before I make it but this is

263

09:24 ,457 --> 00:09:25,140

Brec Bassinger: what I'm gonna do.

264

09:25 ,977 --> 00:09:26,801

Brec Bassinger: So I never doubted it.

265

09:26 ,895 --> 00:09:28,562

Brec Bassinger: There was never like a plan B for me.

266

09:28 ,735 --> 00:09:30,121

Marc Preston: You've given me a new phrase do, do, do

267

09:30 ,161 --> 00:09:31,921

Marc Preston: clouds and I'm gonna be using that from now

268

09:31 ,941 --> 00:09:31,981

Marc Preston: on.

269

09:33 ,580 --> 00:09:35,105

Brec Bassinger: I say do, do do all the time.

270

09:35 ,155 --> 00:09:36,601

Brec Bassinger: It's actually something I refer to as start

271

09:36 ,641 --> 00:09:37,183

Brec Bassinger: with star girl.

272

09:37 ,657 --> 00:09:39,322

Brec Bassinger: I go do, do do, star girl.

273

09:40 ,256 --> 00:09:41,600

Brec Bassinger: It's become a bad habit.

274

09:42 ,061 --> 00:09:42,804

Marc Preston: No, that's awesome.

275

09:42 ,884 --> 00:09:44,941

Marc Preston: Not as awesome, but of course, being from a

276

09:44 ,961 --> 00:09:46,539

Marc Preston: Dallas and of course people listening know

277

09:47 ,603 --> 00:09:49,620

09:51 ,035 --> 00:09:53,563

Marc Preston: Jeremy Lustig.

285

10:01 ,795 --> 00:10:03,342

Brec Bassinger: I literally think that's the orthodontist

286

10:03 ,395 --> 00:10:05,002

Brec Bassinger: who, like, gave me my Invisalign.

287

10:05 ,797 --> 00:10:07,203

Marc Preston: He's got a place in, I think, north

297

10:24 ,563 --> 00:10:27,199

298

10:27 ,239 --> 00:10:28,323

Marc Preston: offices out west.

299

10:28 ,816 --> 00:10:30,157

Brec Bassinger: Oh, yep, I looked it up.

300

10:30 ,197 --> 00:10:31,795

Brec Bassinger: This is literally where I cause.

301

10:31 ,816 --> 00:10:33,180

Brec Bassinger: There's an orthodontist and there's a

302

10:33 ,260 --> 00:10:35,177

Brec Bassinger: dentist right next to it, and I've been

303

10:35 ,217 --> 00:10:36,915

Brec Bassinger: going to the dentist since it opened and

304

10:36 ,935 --> 00:10:38,441

10:38 ,883 --> 00:10:40,800

Brec Bassinger: gave me my Invisalign, got me my rubber

306

10:40 ,820 --> 00:10:41,262

Brec Bassinger: bands.

307

10:42 ,195 --> 00:10:44,362

Brec Bassinger: That's what a small world.

308

10:44 ,402 --> 00:10:45,436

Brec Bassinger: That's funny it is.

309

10:45 ,476 --> 00:10:46,260

Marc Preston: In fact, I went to him.

310

10:46 ,335 --> 00:10:47,781

Marc Preston: I just got my braces off.

311

10:47 ,855 --> 00:10:49,159

Marc Preston: I had to get it back on because I do

312

10:49 ,180 --> 00:10:51,297

Marc Preston: voiceover predominantly that's most of what

313

10:51 ,338 --> 00:10:54,039

Marc Preston: I do, that enacting and I noticed that my

314

10:54 ,961 --> 00:10:57,296

Marc Preston: my articulation was going off cause my

315

10:57 ,617 --> 00:10:58,621

Marc Preston: teeth were shifting a little bit.

316

10:59 ,095 --> 00:11:01,003

Marc Preston: So I got braces back on and I was in doubt.

317

11:01 ,256 --> 00:11:02,974

Marc Preston: We actually got connected on Zoom and he

318

11:02 ,994 --> 00:11:04,460

Marc Preston: said get right up in the camera and let me

319

11:04 ,480 --> 00:11:05,023

Marc Preston: like you viewed it like as a job early on.

333

11:36 ,905 --> 00:11:38,649

Marc Preston: You know not just kind of fanciful thing.

334

11:38 ,669 --> 00:11:39,872

12:16 ,762 --> 00:12:20,590

Marc Preston: I think Selena was from Plano, I think yeah,

354

12:20 ,870 --> 00:12:21,071

Marc Preston: yeah.

355

12:22 ,280 --> 00:12:23,944

Brec Bassinger: So I do have to give a lot of credit to the

356

12:24 ,065 --> 00:12:25,028

Brec Bassinger: acting studio Kathy.

357

12:26 ,600 --> 00:12:30,068

Brec Bassinger: She knows how to train specifically for

358

12:30 ,449 --> 00:12:32,012

Brec Bassinger: those kid networks, because it is a

359

12:32 ,052 --> 00:12:33,423

Brec Bassinger: different kind of acting with different

360

12:33 ,444 --> 00:12:33,845

Brec Bassinger: timing.

361

12:35 ,121 --> 00:12:35,985

Brec Bassinger: But no, it was seventh grade.

362

12:36 ,200 --> 00:12:38,887

Brec Bassinger: I had taken a semester off because I was

363

12:38 ,907 --> 00:12:40,391

Brec Bassinger: like I'm going to focus on school.

364

12:41 ,140 --> 00:12:42,744

Brec Bassinger: And when I went back to acting class the

365

12:42 ,784 --> 00:12:45,549

Brec Bassinger: following semester, kathy was like upset at

366

12:45 ,570 --> 00:12:45,710

Brec Bassinger: me.

367

12:46 ,371 --> 00:12:48,443

Brec Bassinger: And she's a hard head, she does not take

368

12:48 ,484 --> 00:12:50,662

Brec Bassinger: crap from anyone and I think that's another

369

12:50 ,682 --> 00:12:52,326

Brec Bassinger: reason she produces a lot of successful

370

12:52 ,426 --> 00:12:52,707

Brec Bassinger: actors.

371

12:52 ,767 --> 00:12:56,664

Brec Bassinger: Because she told me she was like if you

372

12:56 ,724 --> 00:12:59,931

Brec Bassinger: want to be successful, this can't just be a

373

12:59 ,951 --> 00:13:00,212

Brec Bassinger: hobby.

374

13:01 ,020 --> 00:13:02,165

Brec Bassinger: You have to really want to do this.

375

13:02 ,380 --> 00:13:03,464

Brec Bassinger: If this is a hobby and you just want to

376

13:03 ,484 --> 00:13:05,341

Brec Bassinger: take acting class, that's fine, but I know

377

13:05 ,381 --> 00:13:06,305

Brec Bassinger: that's not what you want.

378

13:06 ,800 --> 00:13:08,361

Brec Bassinger: So you don't need to be taking breaks, you

379

13:08 ,381 --> 00:13:09,325

Brec Bassinger: need to be really studying.

380

13:09 ,920 --> 00:13:11,604

Brec Bassinger: And so that was kind of when my perspective

381

13:11 ,644 --> 00:13:15,252

Brec Bassinger: changed that there is hundreds, thousands

382

13:15 ,801 --> 00:13:19,943

Brec Bassinger: of kids who dream of doing this and if you

383

13:20 ,043 --> 00:13:22,950

Brec Bassinger: want to be successful, you almost do have

384

13:22 ,970 --> 00:13:23,812

Brec Bassinger: to take it seriously.

385

13:24 ,000 --> 00:13:25,205

Brec Bassinger: Like it is, it is a job.

386

13:25 ,880 --> 00:13:27,605

Brec Bassinger: You would be getting paid for this job.

387

13:29 ,640 --> 00:13:31,507

Brec Bassinger: And then so eighth grade came around and I

388

13:31 ,567 --> 00:13:35,100

Brec Bassinger: started like I missed a volleyball game to

389

13:35 ,200 --> 00:13:38,424

Brec Bassinger: go to an audition and my volleyball coach

390

13:38 ,865 --> 00:13:41,071

Brec Bassinger: set me out like binged me for the rest of

391

13:41 ,091 --> 00:13:42,604

Brec Bassinger: the season because she thought I was so

392

13:42 ,785 --> 00:13:44,975

Brec Bassinger: silly to go to an audition instead of a

393

13:45 ,035 --> 00:13:46,060

Brec Bassinger: middle school volleyball game.

394

13:46 ,180 --> 00:13:47,507

Marc Preston: It doesn't kind of suck, though, for a

395

13:47 ,568 --> 00:13:49,598

Marc Preston: school kid, because you've got this tug of

396

13:49 ,638 --> 00:13:51,526

Marc Preston: war starting to happen and then you're

397

13:51 ,546 --> 00:13:54,116

Marc Preston: having to make some decisions that are also

398

13:54 ,156 --> 00:13:56,105

Marc Preston: impacting you socially as well in schools.

399

13:56 ,240 --> 00:13:58,287

Marc Preston: So that's kind of you know, it seems like

400

13:58 ,327 --> 00:13:58,507

Marc Preston: that.

401

13:59 ,420 --> 00:14:02,007

Brec Bassinger: Oh, I was so hurt because before that I had

402

14:02 ,047 --> 00:14:03,872

Brec Bassinger: been a starting player and all around

403

14:03 ,912 --> 00:14:04,152

Brec Bassinger: player.

404

14:04 ,200 --> 00:14:06,262

Brec Bassinger: I played the whole game and then after that

405

14:06 ,302 --> 00:14:08,347

Brec Bassinger: they would put me in for one play every

406

14:08 ,367 --> 00:14:09,811

Brec Bassinger: single game, just so they didn't get in

407

14:09 ,831 --> 00:14:10,923

Brec Bassinger: trouble, and that's it.

408

14:11 ,920 --> 00:14:13,829

Brec Bassinger: But I almost use that as a motivation,

409

14:13 ,910 --> 00:14:15,879

Brec Bassinger: because to me they thought I was just doing

410

14:15 ,899 --> 00:14:16,763

Brec Bassinger: some thing silly.

411

14:17 ,500 --> 00:14:19,085

Brec Bassinger: I use that as a motivation to, like, almost

412

14:19 ,166 --> 00:14:19,968

Brec Bassinger: prove them wrong.

413

14:20 ,520 --> 00:14:22,409

Brec Bassinger: And three years later I'd been on the

414

14:22 ,449 --> 00:14:23,073

Brec Bassinger: Nickelodeon show.

415

14:23 ,093 --> 00:14:24,600

Brec Bassinger: I came back and the volleyball coach

416

14:24 ,781 --> 00:14:26,887

Brec Bassinger: actually set me down and apologized to me.

417

14:26 ,927 --> 00:14:27,208

Marc Preston: Really.

418

14:28 ,000 --> 00:14:29,666

Brec Bassinger: And was like I'm so sorry that I kind of

419

14:29 ,786 --> 00:14:30,489

Brec Bassinger: isolated you.

420

14:30 ,620 --> 00:14:32,686

Brec Bassinger: I didn't realize what this meant to you and

421

14:32 ,706 --> 00:14:34,010

Brec Bassinger: how seriously you were taking it.

422

14:34 ,840 --> 00:14:37,607

Brec Bassinger: So that was kind of a very full, full

423

14:37 ,627 --> 00:14:39,172

Brec Bassinger: circle moment for me.

424

14:39 ,380 --> 00:14:41,130

Marc Preston: Were your parents really endorsing this?

425

14:41 ,271 --> 00:14:42,799

Marc Preston: Or are they kind of like, you know, hey,

426

14:42 ,819 --> 00:14:44,647

Marc Preston: this is what you, who was driving the train

427

14:44 ,707 --> 00:14:44,928

Marc Preston: on this?

428

14:45 ,260 --> 00:14:47,326

Marc Preston: Or was it kind of like like the way I am

429

14:47 ,346 --> 00:14:48,670

Marc Preston: with my daughter, emma, who plays

430

14:48 ,930 --> 00:14:51,165

Marc Preston: volleyball, but they started practice early

431

14:51 ,241 --> 00:14:53,112

Marc Preston: this summer and she's like two weeks after

432

14:53 ,188 --> 00:14:54,347

Marc Preston: school got on and she's like I don't know

433

14:54 ,387 --> 00:14:56,201

Marc Preston: if I want to spend my summer, you know.

434

14:56 ,221 --> 00:14:57,485

Marc Preston: So it's like, hey, you know, if you do it,

435

14:57 ,525 --> 00:14:58,066

Marc Preston: commit to it.

436

14:58 ,267 --> 00:14:58,989

Marc Preston: That was my thing.

437

14:59 ,460 --> 00:15:00,183

Marc Preston: You don't have to do it.

438

15:01 ,040 --> 00:15:02,453

Marc Preston: What was your parents' approach when you

439

15:02 ,492 --> 00:15:04,163

Marc Preston: were in eighth grade and you're like I want

440

15:04 ,201 --> 00:15:04,723

Marc Preston: to be an actor.

441

15:05 ,405 --> 00:15:06,228

Brec Bassinger: They were clueless.

442

15:06 ,440 --> 00:15:09,447

Brec Bassinger: You know, being from Saginaw, texas, we

443

15:09 ,707 --> 00:15:11,912

Brec Bassinger: they didn't know the first place to start,

444

15:12 ,600 --> 00:15:14,866

Brec Bassinger: but they my dad, much like it sounds like

445

15:14 ,947 --> 00:15:16,591

Brec Bassinger: you was always one like if you want to do

446

15:16 ,720 --> 00:15:18,004

Brec Bassinger: it, we're going to commit to it and we're

447

15:18 ,024 --> 00:15:20,250

Brec Bassinger: going to figure out how to support you.

448

15:21 ,000 --> 00:15:23,406

Brec Bassinger: So once again, going back to like Kim

449

15:23 ,446 --> 00:15:25,151

Brec Bassinger: Dawson and Catherine Sullivan, there were

450

15:25 ,191 --> 00:15:27,586

Brec Bassinger: people there who were working and kind of

451

15:27 ,667 --> 00:15:28,629

Brec Bassinger: knew the LA Marcet.

452

15:29 ,140 --> 00:15:30,427

Brec Bassinger: So I give so much credit to them for

453

15:30 ,487 --> 00:15:33,222

Brec Bassinger: helping my mom and being being kind to help

454

15:33 ,302 --> 00:15:34,447

Brec Bassinger: guide us on what to do.

455

15:34 ,660 --> 00:15:38,382

Brec Bassinger: And the manager my first manager I'm still

456

15:38 ,402 --> 00:15:40,042

Brec Bassinger: with her to this day, so I've been with her

457

15:40 ,103 --> 00:15:42,370

Brec Bassinger: now for 11 years.

458

15:42 ,821 --> 00:15:44,126

Brec Bassinger: She found me in Texas.

459

15:44 ,480 --> 00:15:46,107

Brec Bassinger: She actually helped me get with Kim Dawson,

460

15:46 ,641 --> 00:15:48,081

Brec Bassinger: helped me get an LA agent, and it was

461

15:48 ,121 --> 00:15:49,300

Brec Bassinger: really, I feel, like she was one of the

462

15:49 ,321 --> 00:15:50,926

Brec Bassinger: driving forces to actually help move me

463

15:51 ,027 --> 00:15:51,448

Brec Bassinger: forward.

464

15:51 ,920 --> 00:15:54,389

Brec Bassinger: But my mom was next to me the whole time

465

15:54 ,720 --> 00:15:56,426

Brec Bassinger: traveling back and forth between LA and

466

15:56 ,447 --> 00:15:56,788

Brec Bassinger: Texas.

467

15:56 ,848 --> 00:15:57,541

Brec Bassinger: To me, yeah, that's.

468

15:57 ,561 --> 00:15:59,428

Marc Preston: The next question I've got for you is how

469

15:59 ,448 --> 00:16:02,970

Marc Preston: did that work, because you have siblings,

470

16:03 ,402 --> 00:16:05,420

Marc Preston: and how was that working with the you know

471

16:05 ,460 --> 00:16:06,143

Marc Preston: who's in Texas?

472

16:06 ,223 --> 00:16:07,468

Marc Preston: How's it working with you in LA?

473

16:07 ,600 --> 00:16:08,685

Marc Preston: How did that break out for you?

474

16:09 ,342 --> 00:16:12,144

Brec Bassinger: It was difficult because my dad, his job up

475

16:12 ,224 --> 00:16:14,506

Brec Bassinger: until that point was he was a fish farmer,

476

16:15 ,100 --> 00:16:16,645

Brec Bassinger: so you can't really pick up and move your

477

16:16 ,705 --> 00:16:17,708

Brec Bassinger: farm to California.

478

16:18 ,460 --> 00:16:20,540

Brec Bassinger: So he was stuck, he couldn't move, we

479

16:20 ,560 --> 00:16:22,881

Brec Bassinger: couldn't pick up and move the family One.

480

16:22 ,981 --> 00:16:23,825

Brec Bassinger: I've two older brothers.

481

16:24 ,261 --> 00:16:25,726

Brec Bassinger: One of them, fortunately, was already in

482

16:25 ,767 --> 00:16:26,964

Brec Bassinger: college, so he had moved out.

483

16:27 ,480 --> 00:16:30,549

Brec Bassinger: And then the brother, the middle brother,

484

16:30 ,749 --> 00:16:34,406

Brec Bassinger: middle child, he was in his senior year of

485

16:34 ,466 --> 00:16:36,704

Brec Bassinger: high school when I really started traveling

486

16:36 ,744 --> 00:16:38,329

Brec Bassinger: back and forth between LA.

487

16:38 ,780 --> 00:16:40,707

Brec Bassinger: So it definitely it took sacrifices from

488

16:40 ,747 --> 00:16:42,864

Brec Bassinger: not only my mom but also definitely him,

489

16:42 ,884 --> 00:16:44,481

Brec Bassinger: because there was a good period where he

490

16:44 ,521 --> 00:16:46,569

Brec Bassinger: was kind of having to navigate things

491

16:47 ,523 --> 00:16:48,988

Brec Bassinger: without both of his parents home.

492

16:49 ,420 --> 00:16:51,668

Brec Bassinger: So I'm very fortunate that he was also

493

16:51 ,708 --> 00:16:53,164

Brec Bassinger: supportive of me wanting to do this.

494

16:54 ,760 --> 00:16:56,065

Brec Bassinger: At the beginning it was definitely very

495

16:56 ,126 --> 00:16:58,847

Brec Bassinger: difficult, like financially LA is extremely

496

16:58 ,908 --> 00:17:02,287

Brec Bassinger: expensive and expecting my parents just to

497

17:02 ,367 --> 00:17:04,782

Brec Bassinger: support me living in LA is really

498

17:04 ,862 --> 00:17:05,485

Brec Bassinger: unrealistic.

499

17:06 ,120 --> 00:17:08,989

Brec Bassinger: So I was so lucky that my very first pilot

500

17:09 ,009 --> 00:17:10,846

Brec Bassinger: season like the first three weeks I ever

501

17:10 ,886 --> 00:17:13,665

Brec Bassinger: went down to LA I booked a recurring role

502

17:13 ,786 --> 00:17:16,001

Brec Bassinger: on a different Nickelodeon show that kind

503

17:16 ,021 --> 00:17:18,649

Brec Bassinger: of paid for me to go back and forth between

504

17:18 ,669 --> 00:17:21,026

Brec Bassinger: LA and was able from then to kind of

505

17:21 ,087 --> 00:17:24,042

Brec Bassinger: support this dream financially, but up

506

17:24 ,122 --> 00:17:27,542

Brec Bassinger: until then both my parents had made so many

507

17:27 ,603 --> 00:17:28,888

Brec Bassinger: sacrifices to do that.

508

17:29 ,120 --> 00:17:30,966

Marc Preston: How many months out of the year are you

509

17:31 ,367 --> 00:17:32,110

Marc Preston: shooting Stargirl?

510

17:32 ,400 --> 00:17:33,385

Brec Bassinger: Depends on the season.

511

17:33 ,800 --> 00:17:35,622

Brec Bassinger: First season took eight months and in the

512

17:35 ,662 --> 00:17:37,676

Brec Bassinger: past two seasons were between six and seven

513

17:37 ,716 --> 00:17:37,917

Brec Bassinger: months.

514

17:38 ,380 --> 00:17:40,100

Marc Preston: So do you kind of head back to Texas and

515

17:40 ,141 --> 00:17:41,502

Marc Preston: get a little time off and get a little

516

17:41 ,542 --> 00:17:44,186

Marc Preston: change of atmosphere in between you taking

517

17:44 ,227 --> 00:17:44,447

Marc Preston: a break?

518

17:44 ,800 --> 00:17:46,642

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, once again, every hiatus thus far has

519

17:46 ,662 --> 00:17:48,582

Brec Bassinger: been extremely different, considering our

520

17:48 ,642 --> 00:17:50,368

Brec Bassinger: first hiatus was 2020.

521

17:50 ,880 --> 00:17:52,586

Brec Bassinger: So definitely which has stuck at home.

522

17:52 ,626 --> 00:17:55,485

Brec Bassinger: The whole time actually was in LA, which

523

17:55 ,886 --> 00:17:58,663

Brec Bassinger: was not the most fun, which ended up

524

17:58 ,704 --> 00:18:00,681

Brec Bassinger: pushing me to move back to Texas, which is

525

18:00 ,721 --> 00:18:01,485

Brec Bassinger: why I'm here now.

526

18:02 ,920 --> 00:18:05,227

Brec Bassinger: And then last hiatus, I was fortunate

527

18:05 ,267 --> 00:18:07,462

18:19 ,620 --> 00:18:21,327

Brec Bassinger: And then this hiatus I'm actually going to.

536

18:21 ,600 --> 00:18:24,829

Brec Bassinger: I filmed one movie in LA which is like a

537

18:24 ,889 --> 00:18:26,782

Brec Bassinger: quick cameo role, and then I'm going to

539

18:29 ,209 --> 00:18:29,410

Brec Bassinger: month.

540

18:29 ,600 --> 00:18:31,407

Brec Bassinger: So I try to like do at least one or two

541

18:31 ,487 --> 00:18:34,225

Brec Bassinger: projects during my hiatus, and then, other

542

18:34 ,245 --> 00:18:36,185

Brec Bassinger: than that I do, I try to just like mentally

543

18:36 ,245 --> 00:18:38,887

Brec Bassinger: get healthy again, because the hours of

544

18:38 ,947 --> 00:18:41,347

Brec Bassinger: Star Girl are definitely mentally taxing.

545

18:41 ,520 --> 00:18:43,506

Marc Preston: Yeah, are you in Texas or LA right now?

546

18:43 ,807 --> 00:18:45,331

Brec Bassinger: I'm in Texas right now Texas yay, awesome.

18:45 ,480 --> 00:18:47,743

Marc Preston: So I'm a little bit envious because I'm

18:48 ,265 --> 00:18:49,068

Marc Preston: it's been a little while.

549

18:49 ,140 --> 00:18:50,605

Marc Preston: I kind of have to get my little dose of

550

18:50 ,665 --> 00:18:52,965

Marc Preston: Texas every like once a year, you know.

551

18:53 ,480 --> 00:18:56,067

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, the good barbecue Tex-Mex.

18:56 ,268 --> 00:18:56,929

Marc Preston: Hey, I don't, I don't.

18:56 ,949 --> 00:18:57,671

Brec Bassinger: Great for your heart.

554

18:59 ,004 --> 00:18:59,847

Marc Preston: I'm not going to lie.

555

19:00 ,461 --> 00:19:01,987

Marc Preston: I got to hit Waterburger at least once.

556

19:02 ,260 --> 00:19:04,348

Marc Preston: That I was talking to a friend of mine in

557

19:04 ,388 --> 00:19:07,002

Marc Preston: Atlanta who's an expat Texan as well, and

558

19:07 ,283 --> 00:19:09,450

Marc Preston: as unsexy as it is, is Taco Bueno.

19:09 ,540 --> 00:19:11,267

Marc Preston: You got to go there once, you know.

560

19:11 ,420 --> 00:19:13,998

Brec Bassinger: Taco Bueno yum, my mom, that's like her

561

19:14 ,038 --> 00:19:15,123

Brec Bassinger: favorite, Although I have to say, a lot of

562

19:15 ,143 --> 00:19:17,001

Brec Bassinger: the Taco Buenos have been shutting down and

563

19:17 ,021 --> 00:19:18,265

Brec Bassinger: this is very sad to see.

564

19:18 ,285 --> 00:19:18,365

Brec Bassinger: Yeah.

565

19:19 ,067 --> 00:19:19,770

Marc Preston: You know it's so funny.

566

19:19 ,920 --> 00:19:21,647

Marc Preston: So many people that I know actors are

567

19:21 ,687 --> 00:19:21,968

Marc Preston: moving.

568

19:22 ,240 --> 00:19:23,866

Marc Preston: A lot of them are moving from LA to Austin

569

19:24 ,348 --> 00:19:26,146

Marc Preston: now and a lot of the folks I'm talking with

570

19:26 ,780 --> 00:19:27,905

Marc Preston: the paradigm has shifted.

571

19:28 ,341 --> 00:19:30,548

Marc Preston: I kind of took a hiatus from on-camera

572

19:30 ,588 --> 00:19:30,989

Marc Preston: stuff to.

573

19:31 ,460 --> 00:19:33,367

Marc Preston: You know, I got my kids are rapping high

574

19:33 ,407 --> 00:19:36,428

Marc Preston: school and I'm keeping busy with what I'm

575

19:36 ,468 --> 00:19:36,689

Marc Preston: doing.

576

19:37 ,560 --> 00:19:40,430

Marc Preston: But I was just speaking with another actor.

577

19:40 ,480 --> 00:19:41,344

Marc Preston: He's like man, you don't have to go on

578

19:41 ,424 --> 00:19:42,147

Marc Preston: auditions anymore.

579

19:42 ,421 --> 00:19:43,746

Marc Preston: Everything is taped now.

580

19:44 ,960 --> 00:19:47,128

Marc Preston: You know, long-term, if you had your choice

581

19:47 ,220 --> 00:19:48,801

Marc Preston: of where you would love to live, are you

582

19:49 ,263 --> 00:19:51,724

Marc Preston: really love an LA or you'd like kind of

583

19:51 ,764 --> 00:19:52,868

Marc Preston: find a place in Texas?

584

19:53 ,521 --> 00:19:56,068

Brec Bassinger: I changed my answer every single day.

585

19:56 ,920 --> 00:19:58,708

Brec Bassinger: As of now, I have a place in Texas.

586

19:59 ,141 --> 00:20:00,326

Brec Bassinger: I needed a home base.

587

20:00 ,580 --> 00:20:03,168

Brec Bassinger: I was traveling so much for work that I was

588

20:03 ,308 --> 00:20:05,645

Brec Bassinger: losing my mail because I lived in like five

589

20:05 ,685 --> 00:20:08,386

Brec Bassinger: different addresses in a year and a half

590

20:08 ,620 --> 00:20:09,926

Brec Bassinger: and I'm like this is bananas.

591

20:10 ,720 --> 00:20:13,690

Brec Bassinger: So I, as of now, I have a home in Texas

592

20:13 ,960 --> 00:20:15,987

Brec Bassinger: that will be my home base indefinitely.

593

20:16 ,900 --> 00:20:18,947

Brec Bassinger: That being said, there is something so

594

20:19 ,027 --> 00:20:23,410

Brec Bassinger: special about LA and the amount of artistic

595

20:23 ,430 --> 00:20:23,631

Brec Bassinger: people.

596

20:23 ,700 --> 00:20:23,861

Brec Bassinger: You know.

597

20:23 ,881 --> 00:20:25,381

Brec Bassinger: People a lot of times move there for the

598

20:25 ,421 --> 00:20:26,621

Brec Bassinger: entertainment industry, so you're just

599

20:26 ,641 --> 00:20:28,467

Brec Bassinger: surrounded by like-minded people in that

600

20:28 ,528 --> 00:20:30,767

Brec Bassinger: sense, and I miss that so much.

601

20:30 ,900 --> 00:20:34,630

Brec Bassinger: So eventually I can see myself making my

602

20:34 ,690 --> 00:20:37,125

Brec Bassinger: way back to LA, but as of now, I'm in no

603

20:37 ,205 --> 00:20:40,128

Brec Bassinger: rush, I'm just going with the flow.

604

20:40 ,240 --> 00:20:41,680

Marc Preston: Yeah, that's you know, that's the way I

605

20:41 ,700 --> 00:20:42,363

Marc Preston: think you gotta do.

606

20:42 ,423 --> 00:20:43,802

Marc Preston: It is just kind of like what's that phrase?

607

20:43 ,842 --> 00:20:45,849

Marc Preston: Man plans, God laughs, that kind of a deal.

608

20:46 ,281 --> 00:20:47,963

Brec Bassinger: Oh love, I've never heard that I love that.

609

20:48 ,580 --> 00:20:49,525

Marc Preston: Of course you're talking about all the

610

20:49 ,545 --> 00:20:51,646

Marc Preston: things you have to do being with a DC

611

20:52 ,028 --> 00:20:52,409

Marc Preston: universe.

612

20:52 ,469 --> 00:20:54,066

Marc Preston: Now you gotta be hitting some of the cons

613

20:54 ,126 --> 00:20:56,146

Marc Preston: you know, like the Comic Con or Dragon Con.

614

20:56 ,800 --> 00:20:57,785

Marc Preston: Have you been doing a lot of that?

615

20:58 ,300 --> 00:21:01,108

Brec Bassinger: Well, our first season did premiere May

616

21:01 ,128 --> 00:21:01,790

Brec Bassinger: 2020.

617

21:02 ,300 --> 00:21:04,880

Brec Bassinger: And it was it's been interesting, this

618

21:04 ,921 --> 00:21:06,586

Brec Bassinger: whole roller coaster that I like to call

619

21:06 ,626 --> 00:21:09,686

Brec Bassinger: Star Girl, because when, originally, when I

620

21:09 ,726 --> 00:21:11,182

Brec Bassinger: got cast at a Star Girl, that's kind of

621

21:11 ,202 --> 00:21:13,242

Brec Bassinger: like the first thing I pictured is going to

622

21:13 ,283 --> 00:21:16,141

Brec Bassinger: Comic-Cons and having people dressed up as

623

21:16 ,763 --> 00:21:19,705

Brec Bassinger: the superhero I'm playing, and for the

624

21:19 ,745 --> 00:21:21,784

Brec Bassinger: first two years I didn't, I didn't get any

625

21:21 ,824 --> 00:21:24,027

Brec Bassinger: of that and it was definitely a hard pill

626

21:24 ,067 --> 00:21:24,709

Brec Bassinger: to swallow.

627

21:24 ,880 --> 00:21:27,841

Brec Bassinger: It's obviously the show has brought me, has

628

21:27 ,901 --> 00:21:29,888

Brec Bassinger: exceeded my expectations in so many ways

629

21:29 ,940 --> 00:21:30,823

Brec Bassinger: and brought me so many things.

630

21:30 ,843 --> 00:21:33,504

Brec Bassinger: I never expected, but I definitely it was

631

21:33 ,524 --> 00:21:35,202

Brec Bassinger: something I felt like I I was kind of

632

21:35 ,243 --> 00:21:35,926

Brec Bassinger: missing out on it.

633

21:36 ,000 --> 00:21:39,345

Brec Bassinger: It was really sad for me, but, as of about

634

21:39 ,445 --> 00:21:42,024

Brec Bassinger: two months ago, I got to go to my very

635

21:42 ,104 --> 00:21:44,765

Brec Bassinger: first convention and I like, on the last

636

21:44 ,805 --> 00:21:47,004

Brec Bassinger: day, I started crying, I like gave a speech

637

21:47 ,446 --> 00:21:49,323

Brec Bassinger: and I was bawling because it was such a

638

21:49 ,363 --> 00:21:51,421

Brec Bassinger: surreal moment to me for, like, I had

639

21:51 ,481 --> 00:21:54,201

Brec Bassinger: filmed three seasons of this show and it

640

21:54 ,221 --> 00:21:55,847

Brec Bassinger: was the first time I was getting to

641

21:55 ,907 --> 00:21:59,989

Brec Bassinger: experience what the typical superhero actor

642

22:00 ,831 --> 00:22:02,034

Brec Bassinger: does their very first year.

643

22:02 ,580 --> 00:22:04,861

Brec Bassinger: So it was such a such a blessing, so

644

22:04 ,941 --> 00:22:06,247

Brec Bassinger: validating and fulfilling.

645

22:06 ,340 --> 00:22:07,546

Marc Preston: Was it at all overwhelming?

646

22:07 ,640 --> 00:22:08,483

Marc Preston: I mean, was it make of?

647

22:08 ,523 --> 00:22:09,025

Marc Preston: You've got?

648

22:10 ,329 --> 00:22:11,503

Marc Preston: You know people like you?

649

22:11 ,764 --> 00:22:13,302

Marc Preston: You've been waiting to go and I'm sure

650

22:13 ,342 --> 00:22:15,784

Marc Preston: people have been waiting to go see you and

651

22:15 ,824 --> 00:22:16,185

Marc Preston: other people.

652

22:16 ,541 --> 00:22:17,795

Marc Preston: Is it overwhelming the amount of people

653

22:17 ,816 --> 00:22:19,505

Marc Preston: that are wanting to just get a get a get a

654

22:19 ,545 --> 00:22:20,208

Marc Preston: piece of break?

655

22:20 ,620 --> 00:22:22,566

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, I, the first one was.

656

22:23 ,147 --> 00:22:26,185

Brec Bassinger: It was in the UK and it was much more

657

22:26 ,346 --> 00:22:28,826

Brec Bassinger: intimate than the American conventions I've

658

22:28 ,886 --> 00:22:29,268

Brec Bassinger: been to.

659

22:29 ,740 --> 00:22:31,747

Brec Bassinger: But after I went so I'm glad that was kind

660

22:31 ,768 --> 00:22:34,226

Brec Bassinger: of like me dipping my toes into the water

661

22:34 ,347 --> 00:22:37,144

Brec Bassinger: because it was it was like a thousand

662

22:37 ,184 --> 00:22:39,431

Brec Bassinger: people at the whole convention, great.

663

22:40 ,941 --> 00:22:42,621

Brec Bassinger: Then I went to the Dallas Con, which was

664

22:42 ,641 --> 00:22:43,646

Brec Bassinger: like my very first.

665

22:43 ,962 --> 00:22:46,579

Brec Bassinger: I actually want to say it's hosted by Comic

666

22:46 ,599 --> 00:22:48,567

Brec Bassinger: Con, but it's called something different.

667

22:49 ,020 --> 00:22:50,326

Brec Bassinger: I was like fan expo.

668

22:50 ,960 --> 00:22:52,626

Marc Preston: What was it like to be doing that at home,

669

22:52 ,947 --> 00:22:53,289

Marc Preston: you know.

670

22:53 ,620 --> 00:22:56,126

Brec Bassinger: Oh yeah, but at that one there was between

671

22:56 ,247 --> 00:22:59,061

Brec Bassinger: 30 and 40,000 people, Wow, and it was so

672

22:59 ,081 --> 00:23:00,044

Brec Bassinger: overwhelming, but it was.

673

23:00 ,666 --> 00:23:03,466

Brec Bassinger: I got up, I drove 45 minutes to the

674

23:03 ,506 --> 00:23:04,308

Brec Bassinger: convention center.

675

23:05 ,121 --> 00:23:08,690

Brec Bassinger: I got 12 free tickets to bring my whole

676

23:08 ,751 --> 00:23:09,152

Brec Bassinger: family.

677

23:09 ,240 --> 00:23:10,606

Brec Bassinger: I had my whole family there.

678

23:11 ,300 --> 00:23:13,681

Brec Bassinger: They set in the panel and thankfully they

679

23:13 ,721 --> 00:23:15,462

Brec Bassinger: didn't ask any questions that could have

680

23:15 ,482 --> 00:23:16,286

Brec Bassinger: gotten me in trouble.

681

23:16 ,400 --> 00:23:18,227

Brec Bassinger: So I'm grateful for them on that part.

682

23:19 ,741 --> 00:23:20,966

Brec Bassinger: But after that I called.

683

23:21 ,280 --> 00:23:23,126

Brec Bassinger: So there's things called convention agents

684

23:24 ,160 --> 00:23:25,425

Brec Bassinger: who get me these conventions.

685

23:25 ,465 --> 00:23:26,048

Marc Preston: I've heard about that.

686

23:26 ,360 --> 00:23:27,464

Brec Bassinger: And I called my.

687

23:27 ,484 --> 00:23:29,161

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, it was such a new thing to me, a new

688

23:29 ,201 --> 00:23:31,821

Brec Bassinger: concept, because I never done it before, I

689

23:31 ,861 --> 00:23:32,122

Brec Bassinger: never.

690

23:32 ,463 --> 00:23:34,401

Brec Bassinger: I didn't understand the process of it, but

691

23:34 ,983 --> 00:23:36,901

Brec Bassinger: I called my convention agent after and I

692

23:36 ,921 --> 00:23:39,104

Brec Bassinger: was like I'm addicted, I want to do more.

693

23:40 ,381 --> 00:23:42,527

Brec Bassinger: This is for me.

694

23:42 ,607 --> 00:23:45,541

Brec Bassinger: This is what Stargirl should feel like at

695

23:45 ,601 --> 00:23:47,547

Brec Bassinger: all times, because it just felt so

696

23:48 ,049 --> 00:23:50,245

Brec Bassinger: fulfilling to meet people that had watched

697

23:50 ,285 --> 00:23:51,489

Brec Bassinger: the show I worked so hard on.

698

23:51 ,820 --> 00:23:53,266

Marc Preston: What's kind of the most common thing you

699

23:53 ,306 --> 00:23:55,547

Marc Preston: experience when people finally meet you.

700

23:55 ,800 --> 00:23:56,745

Marc Preston: What are they asking you?

701

23:56 ,800 --> 00:23:57,262

Marc Preston: What are they?

702

23:57 ,463 --> 00:23:58,486

Marc Preston: What's the experience like?

703

23:59 ,360 --> 00:24:02,157

Brec Bassinger: I'd say mostly it's people just really

704

24:02 ,198 --> 00:24:04,080

Brec Bassinger: telling me how much they love the show and

705

24:04 ,903 --> 00:24:10,721

Brec Bassinger: how it is or one of their favorite CW DC

706

24:11 ,595 --> 00:24:12,540

Brec Bassinger: Arrowverse shows.

707

24:12 ,821 --> 00:24:15,452

Brec Bassinger: In a long long time, and, like I said, for

708

24:15 ,472 --> 00:24:16,981

Brec Bassinger: the first two years, I didn't meet a single

709

24:17 ,042 --> 00:24:18,391

Brec Bassinger: person that had watched our girls.

710

24:18 ,411 --> 00:24:20,418

Brec Bassinger: So in my head it was just me, my family, my

711

24:20 ,458 --> 00:24:22,082

Brec Bassinger: grandma and my dog who watched it.

712

24:22 ,643 --> 00:24:24,568

713

24:25 ,056 --> 00:24:26,260

Brec Bassinger: I love the first two seasons.

24:26 ,320 --> 00:24:28,006

Brec Bassinger: I'm counting down to the third season.

715

24:29 ,117 --> 00:24:30,742

Brec Bassinger: I would say that's probably the most common

716

24:31 ,123 --> 00:24:33,210

Brec Bassinger: common thing I get told when is the third

717

24:33 ,250 --> 00:24:33,852

24:41 ,299 --> 00:24:43,884

24:43 ,904 --> 00:24:44,886

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, something I've definitely learned

751

25:37 ,379 --> 00:25:40,484

Brec Bassinger: through star girl is however great the

752

25:40 ,524 --> 00:25:43,249

Brec Bassinger: project is, it's more important the people

753

25:43 ,309 --> 00:25:44,110

Brec Bassinger: you're working with.

754

25:45 ,136 --> 00:25:46,720

Brec Bassinger: I feel like our showrunner, jeff, has kind

755

25:46 ,760 --> 00:25:49,546

Brec Bassinger: of instilled that in me, that it's better

756

25:49 ,566 --> 00:25:52,081

Brec Bassinger: to work with great people than necessarily

757

25:52 ,121 --> 00:25:54,613

Brec Bassinger: like a great project, and that I mean you

758

25:54 ,634 --> 00:25:56,740

Brec Bassinger: know like Obviously you want to work on

759

25:56 ,780 --> 00:25:58,264

Brec Bassinger: something you're excited to be a part of,

760

25:58 ,405 --> 00:26:00,310

Brec Bassinger: but just surrounding yourself with people

761

26:00 ,330 --> 00:26:02,017

Brec Bassinger: that you love and make it More fun is so

762

26:02 ,097 --> 00:26:02,599

Brec Bassinger: important.

763

26:03 ,220 --> 00:26:05,787

Brec Bassinger: But and then on the more practical answer,

764

26:08 ,077 --> 00:26:10,505

Brec Bassinger: this is like unpopular opinion among most

765

26:10 ,706 --> 00:26:12,633

Brec Bassinger: actors, because I feel like so many actors

766

26:12 ,673 --> 00:26:14,198

Brec Bassinger: in this day and age, they're like I want to

767

26:14 ,218 --> 00:26:17,047

Brec Bassinger: do something gritty and dramatic and da, da,

768

26:17 ,067 --> 00:26:17,729

Brec Bassinger: da, da da da.

769

26:18 ,190 --> 00:26:19,755

Brec Bassinger: And I'm like I love comedy.

770

26:20 ,017 --> 00:26:21,188

Brec Bassinger: I think it is so fun.

771

26:21 ,389 --> 00:26:24,502

Brec Bassinger: It comes to me More naturally than like the

772

26:24 ,542 --> 00:26:25,926

Brec Bassinger: dramatic side of things.

773

26:26 ,516 --> 00:26:29,347

Brec Bassinger: So I would love to to do some more comedy,

774

26:29 ,487 --> 00:26:31,394

Brec Bassinger: whatever that means, if it's film, tv,

775

26:31 ,474 --> 00:26:33,041

Brec Bassinger: whatever I just think it's very fun.

776

26:33 ,535 --> 00:26:35,461

Marc Preston: Comedy is a little bit more of a challenge.

777

26:35 ,502 --> 00:26:36,886

Marc Preston: So what was your training like?

778

26:37 ,395 --> 00:26:38,240

Marc Preston: Comedy wise?

779

26:38 ,300 --> 00:26:39,787

Marc Preston: Are you a naturally a little bit?

780

26:39 ,808 --> 00:26:41,255

Marc Preston: I mean, are you a little bit of a wise-ass?

781

26:41 ,396 --> 00:26:42,963

Marc Preston: You said you were sassy when you're younger,

782

26:43 ,024 --> 00:26:45,034

Marc Preston: so that it kind of naturally for you for

783

26:45 ,074 --> 00:26:45,154

Marc Preston: sure.

784

26:45 ,557 --> 00:26:50,039

Brec Bassinger: I definitely can be sarcastic and yeah and

785

26:50 ,079 --> 00:26:52,725

Brec Bassinger: sassy, but it comedy is so much more

786

26:52 ,785 --> 00:26:55,237

Brec Bassinger: technical than people think there is.

787

26:55 ,277 --> 00:26:57,322

Brec Bassinger: There's a science to like comedic beats.

788

26:57 ,784 --> 00:27:00,176

Brec Bassinger: So I almost even just like studying Great

789

27:00 ,216 --> 00:27:02,201

Brec Bassinger: comedic actors and their beats and what

790

27:02 ,242 --> 00:27:04,608

Brec Bassinger: makes it funny and their facial expression.

791

27:05 ,115 --> 00:27:06,783

Brec Bassinger: Facial expressions I feel like there is

792

27:06 ,823 --> 00:27:09,555

Brec Bassinger: more of a formula to it and for some people

793

27:09 ,776 --> 00:27:11,261

Brec Bassinger: that's really hard because they don't like

794

27:11 ,281 --> 00:27:12,465

Brec Bassinger: the technical side of acting.

795

27:12 ,475 --> 00:27:14,065

Brec Bassinger: They're like I just want to be free and

796

27:14 ,105 --> 00:27:17,319

Brec Bassinger: expressive, which is great, but comedy

797

27:17 ,339 --> 00:27:18,924

Brec Bassinger: sometimes I feel like you need to be a

798

27:18 ,964 --> 00:27:20,167

Brec Bassinger: little bit more technical with it.

799

27:27 ,439 --> 00:27:28,443

Marc Preston: What actors you know.

800

27:28 ,463 --> 00:27:29,948

Marc Preston: If you say these are kind of like my Mount

801

27:29 ,988 --> 00:27:31,714

Marc Preston: Rushmore, of the comedic actors I like to

802

27:31 ,754 --> 00:27:35,387

Marc Preston: follow and the movies I like, who would

803

27:35 ,407 --> 00:27:36,953

Marc Preston: those people be for the most part?

804

27:37 ,294 --> 00:27:39,362

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, oh, I don't know.

805

27:39 ,403 --> 00:27:41,390

Brec Bassinger: There's so many, so many people I love and

806

27:41 ,410 --> 00:27:41,932

Brec Bassinger: respect.

807

27:42 ,614 --> 00:27:46,205

Brec Bassinger: Recently I really loved Tyka what TT

808

27:46 ,225 --> 00:27:49,795

Brec Bassinger: understated his last name wrong but the

809

27:49 ,855 --> 00:27:53,104

Brec Bassinger: movie Jojo Rabbit he directed, wrote it and

810

27:53 ,325 --> 00:27:55,170

Brec Bassinger: also casted himself in it.

811

27:55 ,651 --> 00:27:57,015

Marc Preston: I mean to make Hitler funny.

812

27:57 ,115 --> 00:27:58,418

Marc Preston: I mean that's a stretch.

813

27:58 ,860 --> 00:28:00,774

Brec Bassinger: It is a stretch and just even that whole

814

28:00 ,834 --> 00:28:01,939

Brec Bassinger: movie, like it was written.

815

28:03 ,184 --> 00:28:05,512

Brec Bassinger: I love when comedy also has a motion in it.

816

28:06 ,013 --> 00:28:08,179

Brec Bassinger: I think it's a very interesting dynamic.

817

28:08 ,519 --> 00:28:12,978

Brec Bassinger: So I love him and then he's probably my new,

818

28:13 ,018 --> 00:28:13,659

Brec Bassinger: my new favorite.

819

28:14 ,201 --> 00:28:14,682

Brec Bassinger: I'll go with him.

820

28:14 ,742 --> 00:28:17,135

Marc Preston: If I think of someone else, I'll say Now,

28:17 ,155 --> 00:28:20,001

Marc Preston: did you ever see guys Faris LeCoulson, old

822

28:20 ,041 --> 00:28:20,342

Marc Preston: school?

823

28:20 ,603 --> 00:28:22,254

Marc Preston: God, that was a funny movie.

824

28:22 Idiocracy and Stunt Doubles

28:22 ,434 --> 00:28:25,923

Brec Bassinger: I haven't people in this past week and I

825

28:25 ,944 --> 00:28:27,232

Brec Bassinger: was at a con and, like you, need to watch

826

28:27 ,272 --> 00:28:28,837

Brec Bassinger: Idiocracy because I haven't seen that

827

28:28 ,937 --> 00:28:30,972

Brec Bassinger: either you know what that's.

828

28:31 ,513 --> 00:28:33,439

Marc Preston: I mean that's got to be a homework

829

28:33 ,479 --> 00:28:34,181

Marc Preston: assignment for you.

830

28:34 ,241 --> 00:28:36,154

Marc Preston: I mean you've got to see Idiocracy, because

831

28:36 ,194 --> 00:28:36,796

Marc Preston: that's just.

832

28:37 ,558 --> 00:28:41,358

Marc Preston: That was such a well done social commentary

833

28:41 ,398 --> 00:28:42,784

Marc Preston: for kind of where we are right now, which

834

28:42 ,825 --> 00:28:43,387

Marc Preston: is kind of funny.

835

28:43 ,929 --> 00:28:47,079

Marc Preston: So I noticed you're we were.

836

28:47 ,219 --> 00:28:48,303

Marc Preston: I was watching last night.

837

28:49 ,747 --> 00:28:51,372

Marc Preston: It's a very physical thing you're doing on

838

28:51 ,412 --> 00:28:53,277

Marc Preston: the show and I you know, with your

839

28:53 ,297 --> 00:28:55,072

Marc Preston: background and cheerleading and everything,

840

28:55 ,474 --> 00:28:57,703

Marc Preston: how much of it are you actually doing?

841

28:58 ,647 --> 00:29:01,858

Marc Preston: Are you doing a fair amount of the flipping

842

29:01 ,898 --> 00:29:03,362

Marc Preston: around and stuff, or is that?

843

29:03 ,724 --> 00:29:05,333

Brec Bassinger: are they kind of throwing somebody else in

844

29:05 ,353 --> 00:29:06,740

Brec Bassinger: there to kind of on the more technical

845

29:06 ,781 --> 00:29:09,394

Brec Bassinger: things, I definitely get to do some of it

846

29:09 ,555 --> 00:29:11,505

Brec Bassinger: and as the seasons have gone on, they've

847

29:11 ,565 --> 00:29:13,152

Brec Bassinger: let me do more and more, as I've just

848

29:13 ,192 --> 00:29:16,182

Brec Bassinger: gotten more experience and a lot of times.

849

29:17 ,146 --> 00:29:19,573

Brec Bassinger: The two reasons I don't get to do my own

850

29:19 ,633 --> 00:29:22,141

Brec Bassinger: stunts would be A it's just way too unsafe

851

29:22 ,181 --> 00:29:23,513

Brec Bassinger: and I could actually get really hurt

852

29:23 ,573 --> 00:29:25,017

Brec Bassinger: they're like we are not shutting production

853

29:25 ,057 --> 00:29:25,298

Brec Bassinger: down.

854

29:26 ,000 --> 00:29:28,562

Brec Bassinger: Or B we just don't have enough time on set

855

29:28 ,602 --> 00:29:30,251

Brec Bassinger: for me to learn the choreography which that

856

29:30 ,332 --> 00:29:32,064

Brec Bassinger: one's always a stinker because it's like if

857

29:32 ,084 --> 00:29:33,653

Brec Bassinger: we had a little bit more time I'd be able

858

29:33 ,693 --> 00:29:33,874

Brec Bassinger: to.

859

29:34 ,637 --> 00:29:36,324

Brec Bassinger: But, that being said, I've been so

860

29:36 ,384 --> 00:29:38,331

Brec Bassinger: fortunate to get to do quite a bit of it,

861

29:39 ,895 --> 00:29:41,660

Brec Bassinger: although my stunt double, christina basket

862

29:41 ,900 --> 00:29:42,522

Brec Bassinger: she was the stunt.

863

29:42 ,562 --> 00:29:45,100

Brec Bassinger: I always tell people this because it's cool.

864

29:45 ,964 --> 00:29:47,891

Brec Bassinger: She was the stunt double for Aria on Game

865

29:47 ,911 --> 00:29:52,260

Brec Bassinger: of Thrones and she is just kick butt

866

29:52 ,400 --> 00:29:53,221

Brec Bassinger: coolest chick.

867

29:53 ,302 --> 00:29:56,575

Brec Bassinger: I she's the other part of Stargirl and I

868

29:56 ,615 --> 00:29:58,981

Brec Bassinger: never get upset when she she gets to do the

869

29:59 ,021 --> 00:30:00,773

Brec Bassinger: stunt because she always makes me look so

870

30:00 ,813 --> 00:30:01,133

Brec Bassinger: cool.

871

30:01 ,234 --> 00:30:03,138

Brec Bassinger: So either way, I'm happy.

872

30:03 ,840 --> 00:30:05,171

Marc Preston: It kind of shift gears a little bit.

873

30:05 ,231 --> 00:30:08,760

Marc Preston: You did some philanthropic work with the

874

30:08 ,780 --> 00:30:10,312

Marc Preston: Juvenile Diabetes Foundation.

875

30:10 ,332 --> 00:30:11,274

Marc Preston: Are you still doing that?

876

30:11 ,735 --> 00:30:14,342

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, so I was diagnosed with type 1

877

30:14 ,370 --> 00:30:17,597

Brec Bassinger: diabetes when I was 8, so coming up to 15

878

30:17 ,657 --> 00:30:19,641

Brec Bassinger: years in January, which is crazy.

879

30:20 ,523 --> 00:30:22,495

Brec Bassinger: But obviously because of that it's very

880

30:22 ,555 --> 00:30:23,578

Brec Bassinger: near and dear to my heart.

881

30:23 ,738 --> 00:30:26,815

Brec Bassinger: So I'm a national ambassador with JDRF.

882

30:26 ,915 --> 00:30:29,081

Brec Bassinger: I've I've gone to Children's Congress with

883

30:29 ,121 --> 00:30:33,900

Brec Bassinger: them and lots, lots of fun stuff, but big

884

30:33 ,961 --> 00:30:34,745

Brec Bassinger: advocate for that.

885

30:34 ,846 --> 00:30:36,052

Marc Preston: Well, it's got to be a very cool thing to

886

30:36 ,072 --> 00:30:37,479

Marc Preston: be able to use what you're doing now to

887

30:37 ,560 --> 00:30:40,473

Marc Preston: actually kind of kind of help something

888

30:40 ,513 --> 00:30:42,378

Marc Preston: you're experiencing and be able to help

889

30:42 ,438 --> 00:30:42,839

Marc Preston: other kids.

890

30:43 ,140 --> 00:30:45,336

Marc Preston: You see travel somewhat regularly to do

891

30:45 ,376 --> 00:30:45,556

Marc Preston: that.

892

30:46 ,078 --> 00:30:48,708

Brec Bassinger: I used to, but obviously with when the

893

30:48 ,728 --> 00:30:51,881

Brec Bassinger: pandemic, it definitely my travel work with

894

30:51 ,901 --> 00:30:53,990

Brec Bassinger: them slowed down a whole lot, specifically

895

30:54 ,050 --> 00:30:55,798

Brec Bassinger: because most diabetics are immune,

896

30:55 ,818 --> 00:30:58,911

Brec Bassinger: compromised, so doesn't really make sense

897

30:58 ,972 --> 00:31:01,159

Brec Bassinger: for us to be traveling unless it's as safe

898

31:01 ,199 --> 00:31:01,802

Brec Bassinger: as possible.

899

31:03 ,367 --> 00:31:05,417

Brec Bassinger: But no, I actually I haven't even gone to a

900

31:05 ,457 --> 00:31:06,784

Brec Bassinger: JDRF walk in a minute.

901

31:06 ,804 --> 00:31:08,291

Brec Bassinger: I used to do that, a few of those every

902

31:08 ,351 --> 00:31:11,482

Brec Bassinger: year, but they obviously shut down and I

903

31:11 ,583 --> 00:31:14,191

Brec Bassinger: think I'm hoping 2023 they're back up and

904

31:14 ,211 --> 00:31:14,572

Brec Bassinger: going.

905

31:15 ,134 --> 00:31:18,602

Marc Preston: It's funny I was talking with oh gosh, who

906

31:18 ,622 --> 00:31:19,733

Marc Preston: wasn't speaking with you the other day.

907

31:21 ,039 --> 00:31:22,485

Marc Preston: I clearly haven't had enough coffee today.

908

31:23 ,108 --> 00:31:23,570

Brec Bassinger: Yeah, me too.

909

31:23 ,590 --> 00:31:25,198

Brec Bassinger: I'm like over here, like yawning, and I

910

31:25 ,238 --> 00:31:27,328

Brec Bassinger: feel so rude, but it really is just the.

911

31:27 ,550 --> 00:31:28,533

Brec Bassinger: It's also the time of day.

912

31:28 ,573 --> 00:31:29,436

Brec Bassinger: This is like nap time.

913

31:29 ,637 --> 00:31:31,858

Marc Preston: Well, I mean I was talking to Shay Wiggum I

914

31:31 ,878 --> 00:31:32,985

Marc Preston: was speaking with the other day and he's

915

31:33 ,005 --> 00:31:34,093

Marc Preston: like, excuse me, I have to hang on one

916

31:34 ,113 --> 00:31:34,274

Marc Preston: second.

917

31:34 ,294 --> 00:31:35,463

Marc Preston: He had to run his front door and get his

918

31:35 ,524 --> 00:31:37,855

Marc Preston: nose swabbed and it's just the whole nose

919

31:37 ,875 --> 00:31:41,147

Marc Preston: swab thing with with working on sets that

920

31:41 ,287 --> 00:31:41,809

Marc Preston: it's like.

921

31:41 ,990 --> 00:31:43,676

Marc Preston: This movie on Netflix is funny.

922

31:44 ,218 --> 00:31:45,101

Marc Preston: The the bubble.

923

31:45 ,603 --> 00:31:46,205

Brec Bassinger: Oh yeah.

924

31:46 ,406 --> 00:31:46,807

Marc Preston: That was.

925

31:47 ,068 --> 00:31:49,395

Marc Preston: It was hilarious because it seems to be a

926

31:49 ,596 --> 00:31:50,880

Marc Preston: big part of your life over the last.

927

31:50 ,900 --> 00:31:52,714

Marc Preston: If you want to film, you're constantly

928

31:52 ,754 --> 00:31:53,336

Marc Preston: being tested.

929

31:53 ,817 --> 00:31:55,261

Marc Preston: Was that just a real pain in the butt or

930

31:55 ,330 --> 00:31:57,258

Marc Preston: you just kind of like whatever you know?

931

31:57 ,921 --> 00:32:00,411

Brec Bassinger: It took an adjusting period to get used to

932

31:58 Adapting to COVID-19 Protocols on Set

32:00 ,531 --> 00:32:03,399

Brec Bassinger: it and first season or the first season

933

32:03 ,439 --> 00:32:04,662

Brec Bassinger: back, which was our second season.

934

32:05 ,231 --> 00:32:10,119

Brec Bassinger: We started September of 2020 and it was

935

32:10 ,260 --> 00:32:11,224

Brec Bassinger: really intense.

936

32:11 ,335 --> 00:32:13,803

Brec Bassinger: I mean, there was, we had to stay six feet

937

32:13 ,903 --> 00:32:15,719

Brec Bassinger: from everyone unless we were filming a

938

32:15 ,819 --> 00:32:17,900

Brec Bassinger: scene which you don't realize, but that's

939

32:17 ,940 --> 00:32:19,599

Brec Bassinger: extremely hard when there's 200 crew

940

32:19 ,619 --> 00:32:20,021

Brec Bassinger: members.

941

32:22 ,015 --> 00:32:24,344

Brec Bassinger: And then I've probably been no swabbed

942

32:24 ,435 --> 00:32:28,297

Brec Bassinger: north of 250 times at this point, but it

943

32:28 ,337 --> 00:32:30,805

Brec Bassinger: definitely just took some getting used to,

944

32:30 ,915 --> 00:32:32,252

Brec Bassinger: but then it just became an everyday

945

32:32 ,272 --> 00:32:32,454

Brec Bassinger: practice.

946

32:32 ,555 --> 00:32:33,841

Marc Preston: Yeah, because I noticed like whenever I go

947

32:33 ,955 --> 00:32:36,376

Marc Preston: when I'd go from a trailer to a set you've

948

32:36 ,396 --> 00:32:38,744

Marc Preston: got to walk through crowds of PAs and stuff.

949

32:38 ,815 --> 00:32:40,737

Marc Preston: So that's almost got to be like Moses

950

32:40 ,797 --> 00:32:42,097

Marc Preston: opening up the Red Sea and people just

951

32:42 ,117 --> 00:32:42,840

Marc Preston: moving out of the way.

952

32:42 ,915 --> 00:32:44,862

Marc Preston: Is that there's so many logistics, you know?

953

32:45 ,815 --> 00:32:48,464

Brec Bassinger: And then we had COVID patrol officers.

954

32:49 ,037 --> 00:32:51,144

Brec Bassinger: The second season we probably had about 25

955

32:51 ,184 --> 00:32:53,061

Brec Bassinger: people in these COVID vests walking around

956

32:53 ,121 --> 00:32:55,280

Brec Bassinger: our set like yelling at people if they were

957

32:55 ,300 --> 00:32:57,037

Brec Bassinger: too close to each other or if they had

958

32:57 ,077 --> 00:32:59,058

Brec Bassinger: their masks down or their mask wasn't

959

32:59 ,078 --> 00:33:00,102

Brec Bassinger: covering their nose.

960

33:01 ,535 --> 00:33:03,683

Brec Bassinger: But then third season it was a little bit

961

33:03 ,743 --> 00:33:05,440

Brec Bassinger: lighter and also we were like used to it

962

33:05 ,480 --> 00:33:07,059

Brec Bassinger: from second season, so maybe it just felt

963

33:07 ,099 --> 00:33:07,380

Brec Bassinger: lighter.

964

33:07 ,775 --> 00:33:09,241

Marc Preston: Now real quick, what's the movie you're

965

33:09 ,261 --> 00:33:10,660

Marc Preston: Do y'all have a release date on that?

970

33:15 ,475 --> 00:33:17,716

Brec Bassinger: I don't think there's a release date, not

33:33 ,299 --> 00:33:34,082

Marc Preston: purely for fun.

980

33:34 ,383 --> 00:33:36,336

Marc Preston: Love it One of the questions I love we've

981

33:36 ,496 --> 00:33:37,762

Marc Preston: kind of touched on this a little bit

982

33:37 ,815 --> 00:33:40,259

Marc Preston: because I'm a food nerd but what is your

983

33:40 ,600 --> 00:33:41,764

Marc Preston: favorite comfort food?

984

33:41 ,835 --> 00:33:43,440

985

33:43 ,521 --> 00:33:45,778

Marc Preston: something that you're like man, you know,

986

33:45 ,818 --> 00:33:46,702

Marc Preston: I'm just craving it.

987

33:47 ,155 --> 00:33:48,821

Brec Bassinger: Probably pizza.

988

33:50 ,337 --> 00:33:54,226

Brec Bassinger: I got diagnosed with celiac three years ago,

989

33:54 ,735 --> 00:33:57,478

Brec Bassinger: so I'm on a very strict annoyingly strict

990

33:57 ,539 --> 00:33:58,522

Brec Bassinger: gluten-free diet.

991

33:59 ,595 --> 00:34:01,542

Brec Bassinger: But I have found a couple good gluten-free

992

34:01 ,602 --> 00:34:04,082

Brec Bassinger: pizzas and it's made its way back into my

993

34:04 ,122 --> 00:34:05,520

Brec Bassinger: heart, cause for a while I hated all

994

34:05 ,540 --> 00:34:07,559

Brec Bassinger: gluten-free pizzas, so it left, but it's

995

34:07 ,599 --> 00:34:07,760

Brec Bassinger: back.

996

34:07 ,835 --> 00:34:08,760

Marc Preston: Yeah, my oldest daughter.

997

34:09 ,458 --> 00:34:10,422

34:10 ,555 --> 00:34:12,498

Marc Preston: Well, she, you know I we have something.

999

34:12 ,558 --> 00:34:15,039

Speaker:1000

34:15 ,060 --> 00:34:17,218

Marc Preston: can kind of, without going into

Speaker:1001

34:17 ,258 --> 00:34:18,303

Marc Preston: gastrointestinal stuff.

Speaker:1002

34:18 ,335 --> 00:34:19,780

Marc Preston: Well, let's say that sometimes it causes

Speaker:1003

34:19 ,800 --> 00:34:19,961

Marc Preston: issues.

Speaker:1004

34:20 ,755 --> 00:34:21,920

Marc Preston: But I don't know if they make.

Speaker:1005

34:22 ,155 --> 00:34:24,002

Marc Preston: For some reason, I think they may be doing

Speaker:1006

34:24 ,022 --> 00:34:26,362

Marc Preston: gluten-free, but Campesies I don't know if

Speaker:1007

34:26 ,382 --> 00:34:27,719

Speaker:1011

34:35 ,062 --> 00:34:37,461
