you two
36:18
meet? How did you get that job? When I moved to L.A., my mother's...
36:24
sister was her main assistant and was like, let's grab coffee.
36:29
And we had a coffee and her name's Stephanie.
36:31
She's the best.
36:32
She's taught me everything.
36:34
Her and Diane have taught me so much.

8 MINS LATER

44:53
I was like,
40:33
Wow.
40:33
And then I watched The Godfather and she asked me what I thought.
40:35
She was so incredible, and it really did start as like a small job, just like, "Come and, you know, help at this party," and I did, and I remember them sort of like chatting, like, "Oh, what are we gonna do about that?" And then, and then she was like, "Well, what about, you know, her? Does she, does she, is she working?" And so I did, I took on that job, and then it started with the kids, and then it turned into like, "Oh, well, can you run Diane's Instagram?" And I was like, "Okay." And then that turned into, "Well, you gotta, you know, spend time with Diane.
41:02
You guys gotta look at videos and make stuff for her Instagram." And then it just all snowballed, and slowly it, it became my whole life at a time.
43:40
Mm-hmm.
43:40
Because her and I have a love for collaging and pictures, and she got me into that.
43:47
And we tried to sell a collage book [laughs] that no one was interested in.
43:54
I mean, I'm going, "It's m- it's Diane Keaton." Everyone was like, "You're crazy if you think we are making this book because no one's gonna buy it.
45:33
... quite well?
45:33
Yeah.
45:34
It's shocking, to be totally honest.
45:37
It's shocking, and it blows my mind because w- I just wanna do the work so badly that I didn't really...
45:47
I assumed people would go, "Look, we hate her.
45:50
It's not happening for us." Then [laughs] as Noah would shake my hand, I walk out the door.
45:56
So the fact that no one is, like, you know, um, ti- tired of my work that I'm doing, 'cause you write your sketches, you know?
48:56
Yeah.
