That's one of my favorite things about doing conventions. We're at a convention. Yeah, and where are we Are we allowed to say that? Well, we're in Tampa. I think we're allowed to say that. You see in the background as you can see, oh look and look you part of
the clouds. I think there's going to be a rainbow. There was a torrent a minute ago and Linda sat down and there was that explains that harp that I heard a minute ago. Oh well, I'm just so glad you're here, buddy, thank you, thank you. We don't get to see each other that much anymore. I know, you know, and you she used to live in in Los Angeles and we got to see each other every
Tuesday between two and six pm for a long time. Screen music. Yes, yes, yes, we were tuned into the world famous Aladdin TV series. That's right. Yeah, we had a really great time doing that. Yes we did, Yes, we did. I explained that to people sometimes, how we were all in a room together for that, and which is unusual because yes, usually yeah, right, does that even happen anymore? The last thing I did where we were all in the room was I want
to say, Rebels, Star Wars. These guys are in the room. They were there, But yeah, that that was the last time that I remember doing anything with a full cast. Yeah it was. We would turn our pages very quietly. Yes, other people were going through a scene. I forgot that. Look at these guys, we're getting a show. Yeah do you miss that? Do you miss being all in the boots together and recording together? That I loved that. Yeah, me too. That was
really fun. Yeah. Now with is SDN, Yeah, well you could feed off each other's energy. It's a little more organic, you know, So I do, I do? I miss that. Yeah, that's kind of what happens when we get together at these live events, like we just did a panel. We got to really feed off each other's energy, and that is something we don't get to do in the studio anymore as much, no, like at all in my case. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm still We're still doing Mickey Mouse and which I hope I'm allowed to say.
We're on Striker something I'm not politically correct. So it's okay. We can talk about TV and it'll and it'll be on and it'll be on, yeah I think so, yeah, this will be on after it's over. There's got to be some wood around here somewhere there. That's that's good. But yeah, you know, I'm I don't think I'm too worried about mm hmmm. Yeah. So that's good. So what's what's keeping you happy these days? Oh? My goodness. Well, besides, I'm in New York
mostly now, yes, and I really love it. The city has a good energy right now, and I'm just really grateful to be there. Oh that's good. You know, my husband's and actors, so he is a way a lot for work. So we've been in the Dominican Republic for much of this year where he's been working. Yeah, Mecca, Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I'm unflagged. I do voiceover. Really, I don't know. There's a whole studio. It's really like I think it's
is it Pinewood Studios. Yeah, there's one. Wait, Pinewood as in at Steven Spielberg or George Lucas. Oh my gosh, it's I think I think it's George Lucas, right, I mean there are soundstages and a whole thing there, so it's like a mini Warner Brothers lot. Yeah, I mean I don't know, Okay, is it? But it's beautiful. So they've been filming there, obviously not right now because the strike, but they'll return to it when we get a fair deal and return to work. So
that is that's happening. That's been fun. Yeah, I'm not doing any more feature films on camera until we get this fixed. And I'm serious, and I mean that you can quote me, hold me to it. Okay, all right, Okay, I made that part up. But it's so good to see you. It's so good to see you, and I hope it won't be long before we see each other again. What you said, Yeah, when did you guys first meet? Probably ninety three is something? Does that sound right? Ninety Yeah? You were six, I believe,
yeah, six years old born and I was sixteen. It's coming back to me now, yes, yes, yes, no, but that was a lot of fun. Yes, it was your fabulous self, and I was I was the resident bully, you know. Yes, I take my orders directly from Jafar princess, and you get oh yeah, and then you dissed me and left the room. And uh, now you know in the movie, I think I think, I think you knew this, but you, of course you remember when I think you picked up was it an apple?
Yes? And Scott jumped up to save you in some way or form or another. And and I was the vendor whose apple you stole? What do you know this girl? And oh yes, yes, yes, well she's a little you know. And and then I love the fact that that you made this cutest little noise for the movie that to indicate that, yeah, well he's going to cut my head off. So yeah, I'm crazy. I didn't mean to do anything, and and I couldn't. I don't remember
if that was improvised or whatever it was. I mean it was written in the script. But then you know, we did it lots of different ways. We ruined it on our own good stuff. Good stuff. They don't make him like that anymore. Well, we were very lucky to be a part of that renaissance. Yeah, you can almost say it's a whole new world good not everybody. Yeah, that's so cool. Thanks for having me on your podcast, you on our podcast. Yeah, what's your favorite part
about New York? Oh my gosh. Well, I just love the energy that when you step out of your door you are immediately engaged in life. Yes, it's just you can't really step away. You are in it. So I love that because it just, I don't know, it carries me sometimes on a day where I'm just maybe not bringing that energy myself, and I step outside and I'm like, ah lie, you know it's perfect that you say that, you know, when I'm there. And I've noticed this
because my wife loves it. Yeah, you know, Peggy, and she whenever we're there, she knows. You know, we have to go we have to go here. We have to go here, and you know what happens to me is I end up walking faster it just because I got to We got to go do something. I don't know what the hell we're going to do it, but by god, we're going to do it. You're living so intentionally, yes, Yeah, that's a good Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah, living intentionally. There were no tents, but it's
okay. But yeah, it's a great place to be. I don't think I could live there, but you know, because i'm you know, I mean, I topped out at New Orleans. That was about as big as city as I could live in, Okay, And then it's it's a vibe. Yeah, so you know, sometimes being there it feels like you're part of it. Anyway. You don't have to live there to feel that, you know, Do you live right in the city? Yeah? Oh yeah, that's a pulse, right, That's what I really like about. Tell
everyone your address actually actually there. Right now I'm picturing you just slapping on a taxi and I'm walking here. Can you give us something? I'm walking here first, maybe not the other I will wait thank you for not killing me. Good stuff? Oh man? Oh man? Did I ask you where you're off to from here? Oh? You should promote right So I'm not promoting anything right now. I'm after this. Where am I going?
I might go to a really yes, So we're discussing that there's an event there at the beginning of next year and getting excited about the idea of that. So I think that might be happening. Yeah, never been. Well, do you want to go in February? Yes? Wouldn't that be fun? Is that together? That would be really great. I'd be there. I'll be there in a hard have your people call my people and they definitely going to tell people that you want to be there. I'm there, So
that that's the next thing that I'm thinking about. That's cool. Have you ever been to the Middle East before? I have not. Well, they kind of almost have to love you. Have you been, Jim? No, No, really not not even. I think the closest was Belgium, which is not very close. No, I think it's really far. Still, yeah, I don't even think about in Africa, so that's also not close. And Ohio, I've been to Ohio many times, which is close. Really much closer. Have you ever been to Africa? I have not.
I have. There are maybe four continents I have not been to, so I got to get busy. Yeah that's right, Yeah, that's right. I think Jim's been to almost every continent this year. Yeah, oh my goodness except fresh out of Asia Asia. Yeah that okay. There's got to be a comic con there somewhere. I am pretty sure there are comic cons and there almost has to be. Yes, yeah to Panimation. Yeah, it's got to be. I have no idea. We'll make one, okay, yes, create one. We'll start talking about it and it will
come. That's true. We'll manifest. We're going to manifest it. You can will manifest it. That wasn't sexist, was it? I don't think so either. Okay, good, I'll just I never know what to say because I'm always worried. I'm not politically correct. I'm not even correct at all, so bloody hell, but my goodness, I'm just so glad because you know, I I have to You're you're my first princess. Oh my goodness.
