Todd BartelsGUEST
Um, so they were, they were buddies.
Todd BartelsGUEST
And we looked at King Richard, um, as a kind of model for how one could write a Hail Mary-
Daniella Taplin LundbergHOST
Yeah
Todd BartelsGUEST
... script and somehow-
17 MINS LATER
Lou HoweGUEST
So yeah.
Daniella Taplin LundbergHOST
Okay, tell.
Lou HoweGUEST
One way we were trying to be strategic was that with Dolly, we just went and wrote it fully and, you know, as an experiment, and then, um, tried to do the King Richard, uh, Hail Mary pass and didn't get there, basically, where, you know, it got on the blacklist and we got the script, Star Thrower, um, and then we found out that another producer had already teamed up with Dolly and had a whole plan, and we were, um, not gonna be able to make that movie, at least not at that point.
Lou HoweGUEST
So with Bourdain, once we realized that we wanted to w- write Tony, um, we decided to try and do it the quote-unquote "right way" and go to the estate first.
Jennifer WilsonGUEST
... economic, uh, ladder.
Jennifer WilsonGUEST
So I think those, those things, like when there's sort of a surprising kind of human drama, um, you know, the S- like any, I really would just love to, I mean, I, I'm sure, I feel like I haven't read a, a biography of, um, Serena, but I just, I mean, like, I mean, I think like even, I mean, King Richard was great, but like, I don't know, to me, like so much of the story still hasn't been told.
Jennifer WilsonGUEST
Like-
Madeline HillHOST
Yeah, yeah
John LongHOST
Yeah.
John LongHOST
Although my wife is a bit... [laughs] When she was pregnant, we watched that King Richard, and we had very different reactions to that movie about the Serena Williams dad.
Chris McCauslandHOST
Mm.
John LongHOST
I came out of it thinking, "Oh, God.
Joshua HunterHOST
Um, I own Malcolm X-
JamarcoGUEST
Yeah, has anybody re-watched King Richwar- King Richard? No.
Joshua HunterHOST
I...
Joshua HunterHOST
God.
Eman EsfandiGUEST
I come back to acting.
Eman EsfandiGUEST

Eman EsfandiGUEST
In that timeframe, I get booked for the inspection.
Eman EsfandiGUEST
While shooting inspection, I get the audition for Ezra.
46 MINS LATER
Eman EsfandiGUEST
It's not mine.
Eman EsfandiGUEST
I wouldn't want it if it wasn't mine.
Eman EsfandiGUEST
so if I don't get it I don't want it you know what I mean so it changed sort of the perspective I had on it and then not soon not too long after I saw I did King Richard Small role in King Richard.
Eman EsfandiGUEST
And you coached tennis.
Patrick DoranHOST
Love that hashtag.
Patrick DoranHOST

Caleb PittsHOST

Patrick DoranHOST
on? I think that was a movie or something.
Patrick DoranHOST
Can we check out the hashtag violence? Yeah,
Patrick DoranHOST
We're
Caleb PittsHOST
going to see.
Caleb PittsHOST
Let's look at cancel King Richard.
Jacqueline ColeyGUEST
I will always say it's the difference between Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish.
Jacqueline ColeyGUEST
That songwriting branch we all know is quite prickly, has always seen Billie Eilish as a songwriter, like through and through, and for whatever reason with like bigger pop stars, they've always seen Lady Gaga as a songwriter through and through, and less so with Beyonce and Taylor Swift who up until the point that Beyonce got it with King Richard, every effort that she had made to get into the Best Song category was sort of like left out.
Jacqueline ColeyGUEST
And I think there's a little bit of that with Zendaya and the Oscars.
Katey RichHOST
Mm.
John CampeaHOST
It made 426 million.
John CampeaHOST
King Richard, now remember, this is before the slap, okay? This was before the slap.
John CampeaHOST
And King Richard only made $39 million.
John CampeaHOST
And by the way, Will Smith won an Academy Award for that at the infamous awards that he did the slap.
John CampeaHOST
But Will Smith nominated for and won Best Actor, movie made $39 million.
1 HR 18 MINS LATER
John CampeaHOST
But another part of the reality is a lot of the films are really, really bad that you end up watching.
John CampeaHOST
Anyway, thanks for sharing.
John CampeaHOST
That's a very interesting list you put together there, Richard.
CindyGUEST
