00:00You are so amazing. Thank you so much for my most heartbreaking performance. Oh, oh, okay
00:06Thank you personally allowed to rank
00:09How are you feeling being here right now? This is incredible. Oh, it feels it feels amazing. It feels phenomenal
00:14I mean, it's like it feels like a mini celebration or many is the wrong word
00:17It was like a celebration of you know
00:19The hard work and how much time we put in effort we put into the series and so it's just really cool
00:23It's like nice. It's uh, it's exciting. Yeah, cuz I mean you're in it for so long
00:26So now looking back and reflecting what what do you what sticks out to you most about your experience working on the pain?
00:32Oh, man, what sticks out the most? I guess this this feeling of I was very nervous going into it
00:38Very scared about how the character was gonna be received how the show is gonna be received
00:42Mostly I tried focusing on my parts. I'm how my role is gonna be see my character
00:46and
00:48I guess what sticks with me most is that this sort of feeling of accomplishment I guess sort of like, um
00:53You know you try really hard and then people and people embrace the people like the show and so that that's important
00:58Although it shouldn't be as important. I shouldn't put so much weight on that but but it does feel great when
01:02Yeah, I think it's validating
01:04I think that uh, but it's like I shouldn't try to find my validation and how about the audience things
01:07but I I'm working on it, but I think that um, I think I'll take with me most is just
01:12How great it feels to push yourself and for it to for it to feel like it pays off
01:16I mean, it's interesting you say that cuz it kind of a little bit of the dynamic that Vic has with Oz
01:22So what was Colin like on set for you as maybe kind of a mentor incredible? I mean, the dude is so giving
01:28He's so present. He's so kind
01:30And he's so good
01:31so getting to watch him as a young actor and admire him so much and I respect what he does so much getting to see
01:37it up close and
01:38Especially when you see the finished product, I mean, it's one thing when you're standing here in front of someone
01:41It's one thing where you can step back and see the full picture. And so getting to see it
01:46Having him talk to me asking him a million questions and having him answer him. It's like it was everything
