Transcript

How you doing out there? It's me Tigger and Duc Wayne Duck. It's me Bunkers Deep Bobcat. All right, y'all, is it great? Your favorite firefly you desire? Hold the old knock gud. My name is Jim Cummings and welcome to tune in. All right, welcome back, everybody. We're tuned in with Jim Cummings. Today. We got Sonny Soljik. You know him from mid nineties. You know hi from Thought of War, you know him from the Tonight show with Jimmy Fallon. Thank you so much for

very much. Yay having me and the crowd went wild? How about that? Yeah, we're kicking butt. That's right, that's right. Thanks for joining us, Thanks for joining us, Thank you, thank you. So you've been doing these for a while. Huh, these conventions as well as acting in general. Yeah, yeah, the conventions are still fairly new to me. But uh well we're in Sacramento right now. This is my third convention. Oh okay, but I feel like bro at this point now.

So yeah, yeah, yeah, it's very cool. Okay, Well that's that's awesome. Man. When when did you know that you had that bug? I mean, at what age? Because you were you've been doing this a while shure, I don't know. I guess, uh. Well, thankfully my parents didn't force me into acting. It was just kind of a natural thing, I guess. Uh. I think when I was like, shoot, i'd probably say like five or six. My favorite movie was Austin

Powers. Okay, I think it was like the Goldberg one, but I watched I watched all of them, and oh yeah, basically I would like dress up as like Austin Powers, and I would like do scenes from uh, Austin Powers. Who played who played Beyonce? That's what I wanted. Just shoot, you actually had someone playing a Beyonce, that'd be good? Oh oh, you actually asked, oh oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I think Beyonce played that. I played Beyonce as well too. Is he

good or what? I did? All of it? Now that's versatility? Oh no, So yeah, I would just kind of I mean, I mean that's like kind of where I started. And then I would watch obviously like other movies, and I would watch Eddie Murphy movies and stuff too, and I thought it was really creative and cool for to even see like Eddie Murphy kind of change characters and stuff. So I started doing that and then

I told my mom. I was just like, I don't know how we can do it, but I really want to start getting into acting anyway possible. And my mom is very supportive. I love her. Shout out to my mom gat and from there, I guess she kind of just took control and then, uh, you know, no, yeah, absolutely right.

That isn't that is really cool? Yeah, I mean, you know, you start off, you have a goal and and you know I kind of had that too, but I was born in Youngstown, Ohio, and you know, you tell people, well, I'm I'm going to be a musician. I'm going to sing and I'm gonna play drums. Well, and then I'll probably do some acting. They go, of course you will. Yeah, now, let's get down to that steel mill and get you a union card, you know, which I did for like six months and then I

had to leave. So yeah, I know, I know that bug. Yeah, you know. Yeah. I mean also the acting industry, though, I feel like I guess it's just like you got to be there at the right place at the right time. So I mean, obviously I feel like a lot of skill and talent goes into it. But it's also luck

based industry as well, you know what I mean. So yeah, it's also a lot goes into it just for like the look and even your voice, and just like certain certain things that are very specific to however the writer wrote the script or whatever. So I was just kept that in mind too, because sometimes when I'm I mean, when I first moved to La I'm from Atlanta originally, I mean, when I first started, I would kind of get discouraged at times because I would be like, how am I not

booking this? How am I not booking this? Yeah? But if anything, I feel like it kind of just helped me like improve my craft and stuff. And obviously it wasn't entirely me. Sometimes it was just exactly like I didn't look like the character and stuff. So yeah, yeah, you can't fight that. Yeah, yeah, you gotta have perspective. But I've been practicing like shape shifting and stuff, So there you go. That's good, No, I can. Yeah. I saw your wear Wolf the other

day. It was wicked. Yeah, yeah, really really good. I actually said that unintentionally. I forgot that my character can actually shift. Yeah, that's right, that's right. It was a full moon last night and I didn't see you anywhere. So wait, do alarms still go off even with my phone is on some Yeah yeah, I'm sorry I set up so many alarms. Okay, cool, while you're on time? Yeah yeah yeah, what was that for pancakes? I set my pancake alarm at my waffle

alarm? Did you get your talkies and ice cream last night? I did have my talkies and ice cream last night. I told Jim. I was like, that's the most teenage thing I've ever heard. Yeah. Oh yeah, I'm on a trip by myself at a hotel. I had to go to seven eleven and I get the most unhealthy snacks. Yeah yeah, it was a necessity. Yeah gosh, my daughter would have said the exact same thing. Yeah, literally would have been talkies please. Yeah. Yeah,

he has a sixteen year old daughter. Okay, cool. I'll tell you know. God has a sense of humor. Gave me a sixteen yeard to take that. Cummings. Damn no, she is not here, and damn sure ain't gonna introduce her to you. This is oh god, oh man, she's watching this. She'll be going on dad, Oh my god, So where are you off to next? Man? What's uh work wise, con wise, I don't know. Con wise, I have a few planned

right now. I'm still just confirming everything, so I confirm. I don't want to yeah say I'm going to a place and just not making and disappoint everybody. But uh, one thing I wanted to ask is like, does this like hit you? Like you're you're doing the Tonight Show. You're man hanging out with Jonah Hill, Like you're so young, and like, man, what what what's the d M situation? Like it's got to be crazy?

Shure, I don't know. I guess Uh. I feel like like growing up as a child star, though I feel like I'm kind of desensitized to it at it like at this point, Yeah, obviously I still have like other future aspirations and stuff and like of course I'm gonna continue acting and everything, but as of right now, I don't know. I feel like it's all come like it came pretty natural because I'm just like super talented and like that guy that's that's weird, that's my formula. Oh boy. Yeah,

But then I wake up and it's not that I'm joking obviously. Actually I remember doing the Tonight Show and I almost just walked out because I was so nervous. I mean, wow, you crushed it. Yeah, how old were you when when that was? I was thirteen? Wow, I was thirteen when I did it. I think I was the second youngest. I thought I was going to be the youngest. But damn it, dude, I didn't make it. But damn Drew Barrymore. Oh yeah, yeah, it was very well. Yeah it could have been. I think it.

I'm pretty sure it was you very more. Oh damn. I could be completely a lucky guests then. But no, I was insanely nervous, and honestly still even when I do any type of interviews or podcasts. I mean I did the panel yesterday at the Corn and I was I still always have butterflies. Oh yeah, I get very nervous. So sometimes in my head I just kind of think like less is more in this situation. Yeah, sure, I feel like the more I talk sometimes I'll just end up

saying something stupid. So I just tick to the answers. That's my trademark. Yeah, people expect that of me now, so I try my best, but obviously there are times, I mean, honestly, I don't even I do not watch my interviews. I do not watch any of my podcasts or anything. Yeah. Back, I actually never even watched the Jimmy Fallon episode. So I just like I've seen like little clips of and stuff and like I was good, you were great. Okay, I'll take that.

Yeah there you Yeah. Yeah, oh gosh, that's funny. Well he doesn't watch himself either. I don't think oh really, I just made that up. Okay, but it sounded good. Yeah, I'll take that. Yeah yeah yeah oh man man. Yeah. So another thing we wanted to talk about was just like working with Jonah Hill, you know, his directorial directorial debut with Mid Nineties. You know, you're the lead in that movie. Like, what was it like like getting to meet him, getting walk

us through that process? Actually, I think like a few months before too, I watched super Bad, and I don't know, it all came by surprise because it was actually I booked this. I've been acting for a while. But yeah, before he before I worked on Mid Nineties. And the thing is is what was weird is I didn't get like hired as an actor.

He didn't even know that I acted. So I actually got referred to by a producer for mid nineties that was also the owner of a skate company that I was on and Jonah was basically like, yo, I want it to be very authentic. I want to find people that actually have been involved in like the skate culture and everything, and uh, a package deal. Yeah, I guess so. I mean that's that's it, right, I

mean you've got one stop shopping. Yeah. It was. It was insane because and exactly like it is, you got to be there at the right time, at the right place. And I was literally at my local skate park and Jonah and the producer of the movie. Basically the producer was like, yo, I think he might be at Stoner It's my local skate park. And he was like, he might be there, he might not, so we can just look for other people and stuff and try to get,

you know, some ideas. And I was there Jonah came up to me with the producer as well, and I was just shocked. I was like, what the hell is Jonah Hill doing at my skate park? Yeah, yeah, it was really random. That's a legit question, actually, And basically we started talking and stuff, and then he was like, if you had any acting experience and stuff, and uh, I actually a year before I worked on a movie called The Killing of a Sacred Year with Colin Ferrell

Nicole Kidman. Check it out. It's on Netflix, and give us the name again, the Killing of a Sacred Year. Yeah, there you go. But I was probably I think like ten or eleven in it. But basically also the director, his name is Jerrgos Lathamos, very good director.

I told Jonah that I worked with him, and Jonah actually didn't even believe me, and uh, but he I guess apparently he was friends with your Goos and he ends up calling Ugos after we talked and stuff, and I Gus was like, yeah, he's great, you should definitely book And then then you got a gold star. Yeah apparently, yeah you got to go ahead. That's cool. Yeah, so obviously I still went in for audition stuff, and then we did a table reading everything, and then it all

just started coming together. Wow. Oh yeah, it's a good story. That's not bad. Yeah, that's show based ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah. I mean, honestly, I've heard a lot of stories of people just like walking down the street don't getting booked. I mean, one of my friends actually rest in peace, Angus. He was on Euphoria, but he was just walking down the street and I'm pretty sure like New York and just got I was gonna say, what street was this?

Well, yeah, I guess it's a probably a lot of people are going to tell me that street. I'm gonna go there. Yeah, And speaking of Euphoria, excuse me, you worked with Alexa Demi yeah on nineties. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, No, Alex is great. It's actually crazy too, because she was telling us about Euphoria and that she was working on it, like okay, yeah, that's cool. One of the biggest shows. Okay. And it's not that we it's not that we didn't

believe it. It was just like obviously, like everyone's working on their own things and stuff. But if Alex ends up ever seeing this, congratulations and all your success. But uh yeah, I mean I've only really seen I haven't seen too many of the Actually, no, I do see some of the cast members pretty frequently because a lot of the cast members are also skaters as well and escape professionally, so we're all still in that same type of scene and stuff. But yeah, wow, well I was amazed or watching

some of your footage yesterday and and you're really good. Thank You're insane, that's I mean, that's ridiculous. I was thinking that, come on, you've got some gravity over there somewhere, but apparently not. You found a way to scoot around gravity. I don't know how the fresh out of gravity, I'm gonna do whatever I've wanted. I was thinking, shit, okay,

I was looking for wires and stuff. Yeah, no, I mean, aside from shape shifting, I've been learning to manipulate gravity, and so, you know, aside from being an actor, I'm also scientists, and that's got to come in hand. Yeah, even just changing a tire, you know, it would be good. Yeah, but I mean, honestly

with it. Actually, it was pretty insane though, because I feel like I just got so lucky and I'm honestly really grateful to just love growing up skating and also yeah, knock on wood, and also just loving acting as well. Honestly, people, I mean, growing up people would be like would you rather act or skate? And I would always stick to my answer saying I don't know why I can't do both. I guess it manifested itself answer where I literally did a movie of skating in it. Yeah, look

at that. Yeah, it's uh, it's crazy how that happened. Yeah, so that must have been really personal for you. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah it was. It was just such an insane experience and honestly, just being on set every day, like I loved it, and yeah it's got a great vibe, right, Yeah it was. It was really cool. And obviously Jonah is the best Johana and I still talk to this day. So he's a really great guy. And I'm not just saying that for like media or anything. He really is a good guy. Yeah. And

well you want that, Yeah, you're looking for that. That's a beautiful thing. Yeah, you know, God forbid you run into it. Half these persons in the crazy ass world. Yeah, exactly. You know that's awesome man. Well that's great. Yeah. Well we are on tuned in with Jim Cummings. So let's bring it around to Disney. Do you ever have her watch Winnie the Pooh growing up? Or oh what was your favorite Disney show growing up? Were you into cartoons or no? Okay, I

never really watched Disney. I watched Disney XD cool kids watch that's right. Uh so I actually want to wait were you and Winny Winnie the poop. That's right. I'm wanting to Tiger Christ tell me. Yeah, no, somebody's got to do it. Oh my god, she'd be flipping out right now. Oh yeah, Well, hello, sister. What's her name? Her name's Alex. Shout out to Alex. Hello Alex. Actually my sister and I she's she's five years older than me. But we're actually we've been

writing a movie together. Oh so we're planning on shooting it pretty soon. Oh that's great, But there's the strike fortunately, so hopefully that's yes, you shall have to wait till the strike is over and then you could get bones over there and do whatever you want like this guy does. So yeah, that's stuff you used to get me kicked out of class. I'm sure you had a few of those experiences. Yeah, yeah, well I was.

I was homeschooled for a little bit. I think if I if I wasn't homeschooled, I would be a pain in the ass to all my teachers in high school. Yeah. Well that rings a bell, but there's a long old bell a long time ago. But yeah, that was yeah, well, I you know it was did you are you attending college? Do you have any ideas of such. I don't know yet, just because everything

is kind of it's up in the air. Obviously, my mom and my dad are like, Actually, my mom she she doesn't she's kind of she's very supportive in what I do. But my dad he's more like, go to school, but he's also still very supportive and stuff. Yeah, well, you know, I I kind of had that too. But I you know, when I when I was a kid, I was in high school. I was on speech team and I did really well with the humorous interpretation.

And they this school outside of Columbus, outside of o s u Ohio State called Otterbuy and sent me this thing and they said, would you were really interested in you blah blah blah coming down and we'll give you a scholarship. And I burned it. I didn't just throw it away. I burned

it. The last thing I wanted was my parents to see that I was getting a collegship scholarship to go to college, because there was no freaking way I was going to go to college, because there wasn't anything they were going to teach me that was going to even be remotely close to what I wanted to do and you know how, well, maybe you can grow up to be Winnie the Pooh. They're not going to teach that course. It's there

is no course like that. And so I just burned it and moved to New Orleans and got in a rock and roll band and then moved here. And so I mean it sounds like I'm telling people not to go to college, but okay, maybe I am, but just but just a little you know, go to college kids, Well yeah, please go to college kids, all of you out there, all of you, you know, wherever you are. Yeah, well, I mean no, I think I think

college is good. I think it's it's it is a great experience. But I also just at the same time, the way that I look at it is just if you're going for like the education, I feel like, I

mean, it's so accessible now just through our phones. I mean even I graduated a little bit early, but I was still on a routine of doing school, so I did want to go to college for like business and stuff, and I kind of just searched it up and dude, there are classes that you can There are live classes at like Harvard and stuff where you can watch business classes and everything. So just for the education. I mean, you can attain all that type of information just through your phone. Fore.

Yeah, but obviously you need like certain credentials and stuff if you want to do certain forms of work. But honestly, as of right now, my plan is just to work for myself. I'm studying my clothing brand right now as well. So well, right on, right on, Well tell everybody about it. Yeah, yeah, I'm actually on September twenty fifth, I'm launching my first clothing brand. And it's not merch it's a clothing brand. Okay, but yeah, I've been working on that for a little while.

So oh that's cool, it's fine. Do we have the name? Yeah, it's called Superstitious. I'm literally marketing it without even giving it the name, but yeah, it's it's called Superstitious. Are you doing like an l a launch or like having like a launch party ship? I didn't even think about that. Yeah, I got to do that. Yeah, yeah, well now you do. Yeah I do that? What the yeah? I gotta lemonade? I gotta say about that, because the thing is that I've

been working on it by myself obviously. I Mean, when I first started, I wanted to do it with a friend, but honestly, it was kind of like just like my own idea, and I was like, honestly, if I want to really move forward with this, I got to just kind of start on my own right now and then just keep building up and then I think later on down the road, I'll start building up a team and everything. Ye. Yeah, well it's good to have a few irons

in the fire. Yeah that's a beautiful thing. Yeah. Well, good for you, man, that's awesome. Well that that conversation just reminds me of something I wanted to ask you too. I'm sitting here watching YouTube, watching the Milk Boys, and then all of a sudden, I see you skating with the Nelk Boys. Can you talk about that? Yeah? Yeah, Actually, I don't even remember how that fully came about. I'm pretty sure I was talking to MTV Jesse. He's I don't think he's with Milk

Boys anymore at that time. I think I think he was still with them, and uh yeah, I guess we all just kind of started hanging out. And then I think they had this house in La I think it was called I think it was like half and half, So I think FaZe was living there and then also Nelk Boys and they had a mini remp there and they're like, yeah, you should come stop by, Like we just got

a mini ramp and stuff. So they had a bunch of skaters like Najia Houston, yeah, a bunch of other people, really skaters, And so I just stopped by and started skating the miniway with the boys. Yeah. And then I think from that point on, like we they started I think we like started coming up with ideas for a video and stuff. Yeah, wow, how long you been skating for? I've been skating for I started

when I was four. I just turned eighteen, So math is not mathing right now, so a while, A long time, A long time, yeah, fifty years. Yeah wow. That's actually anything you start when you're four and you end up being good at it, that's you're in. That's it's working. Yeah. Well, I mean also growing up with skating though

too, it's not even just skating at this point. It's also taught me a lot to kind of just like it just taught me a principle of like and as cliche as it sounds, but you do fall and you have to get back up, you know what I mean. Taught me like to learn how to fail so many times, but that one time that you earned it, you can just open so many other doors. So I've applied that principle for like everything, so and it's and it's helped me out a lot.

That's nice. Yeah, that's beautiful. So I've taken eatings physically and mentally. So yeah, wow, Okay, don't don't apply that to skydiving because like one oops and skydiving is real. Yeah, well, I'm eighteen, O, I can go skydiving. That's true. I told my mom that, She's like, if you fucking skydiving? She didn't say that. Well, maybe we did. Oh yeah, I feel like I've been. I think you're just crazy on them. You're good. I feel like, bro,

no, everybody out there has heard that before. Have you ever been skydiving? I did? You did? Yes? But well yes, and no it wasn't. It was not out of a plane, but I jumped off of Holly Alkala and I think it was eight thousand feet or something like that. But it was on the Big Island. I think it's on the Big Island of Hawaii or Maui. I've never actually be Hawaii. It's not bad. Yeah, the trick is it's it's hard to leave. Not the

cheapest place in the world. But but yeah, I dove right off a cliff and you know, and it was where I'll just be very brief with this. You know, we're one of these big, gigantic paragliders, but like the biggest kite in the world, you know. And there's two guys, the tour guide that you know, the pilot and Einstein over here comings and and we're running up in his and he we're in Hawaii and he bought

it from Norway. And I get wait, where are you from? And goes, I'm from the Norway there, Chim, it's good to meet you. And I said, why are you in Hawaii? Well, it's very good to be either here Andy knee, And I said, okay. And so because there's just something about somebody being from Sweden that doesn't give me a lot of confidence jumping off a mountain in Hawaii, you know, I was

thinking, are you sure? So you've done this now? This isn't your first day on the job, right, Ooh, I've been doing this for a while there. And I said, oh, honey, so you have to run and you jump up and he stops two inches before and he goes, Nope, I don't like it, and I goes, Jesus, you know, and I'm looking and there's nothing but gravity there, and I go, we almost I could have pulled us both and would be dead, you know. And he goes, oh, we're not dead yet, come on,

let's do it, and I go o Christ. So we finally did it, and it took a half an hour, and it was awesome. It was really amazing, and you know, you'd think, you know, you're up there and you're thinking it'll be really loud, and it was dead silent. It was really cool. And then you go over trees and you go pirate, this is really boring. And then you land and you land on your stomach and that was a lot of fun. So that was my big experience with almost death. How did we get on that subject? We

were just talking about he just turned sky okay, good. I was thinking it was a good story. Is interesting, but I didn't drag him over there too. Yeah, so you're gonna do what some incredibly dangerous thing. Niagara falls and a barrel is a good one. I heard that and I've been considering that. Yeah, yeah, that's on my bucket list. Yeah yeah, yeah, I always I just can't believe that's like, who who thought, Oh yeah, I'm gonna go do this. I'm gonna put myself

in a barrel. It's like a thing. It's like, oh yeah, that thing, like people really did it. Apparently really did it? Yeah, really crazy people. Was it to get across the border? Is that? Like it was just to go over barrel like a monkey Kong bearrol I got? Yeah yeah, yeah, well there's there's been a lot of people that have tried it. You go up to Niagara Falls and they have a little museum and it's got all the crazy lunatics who did it, and one

guy did it in with a life vest on and that was it. Wouldn't that hurt though? Yeah, you're not completely compact, and the barrels when you lan, you're banging on it, right, it's got to hurt. There's no way it doesn't. I mean it's you know, especially when you look at these things that they were in, it's like, holy god, they look like death traps. I mean, surely people have died trying to

do that. Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, So it hurts about as much as death Yeah, that would hurt, That would screw up lunch and everything. Oh man, well okay, well let's not do that. And what else let's not do. Let's see, Okay, don't staple anything to your forehead. That's another good one. But so are you heading over to the Khan in a little Yeah, I don't know about that time. Yeah.

Well, let's wrap up with we haven't touched on God of War yet, so let's just talk a little bit about for all the viewers who don't know, I am the real boy. My dad is Crado's Christopher Judge. Yeah, how about that met Sonny Man, I met you a long time ago, like working on the first one in the volume. Yeah, came out to set one day, and yeah, it seemed like you and you

and my dad really had like a good bond. There was really like chemistry there and like that's not fake, you know, that was like really real and like that show was through both of the games, and what was your experience like where I know, like you could talk about that for an hour, but like, yeah, you know, like how was that experience like working on that and like you know, it's just such a different experience from acting on camera or voice acting even you know when you have the motion capture

and everything like that. Well, I think for the first it was all so new to me, and honestly it is actually when I really just started diving into acting as well. So it I mean I only did I think, like a short film before even working on a God of War. So working on that, it was just a whole new world for me. And we were working on it for like, I think four to five years. Yeah, and every day. It's an amazing franchise. It just keeps going.

Yeah, And I mean honestly everyone just became family at a certain point because you're just working on the project for so long. And yeah, I mean every day just felt like a brand new day. And I mean I was always really excited going into work. And I think for Ragnarok actually even for the first game too, I was so young. I didn't even know how big the franchise was. Yeah, So when I was doing it,

I mean I was obviously trying my best every day. But I think for the second time around, uh, I kind of had an idea of how special the game was to so many people. Yeah, and whether or not even if one person played at a million people it still meant the same to me, but the fact that so many people were inspired by it and loved it, I think for the second time around, obviously I was a little

bit older, so for Ragnarok, I felt a lot more pressure. But you know, obviously getting in the mocap suit and putting all the dots in my face and that whole process it just felt like second nature to me. Oh that's cool. But yeah, I think definitely for the second one, it was a lot more pressure on me, I feel like, and just because my character also evolved a little bit more, so there was more dialogue, more and it's so well done. Yeah, I mean it looks like

this awesome movie. Yeah, it's insane. It's a salable movie. Whoa look at this. It's boom you know. Yeah, yeah exactly. And honestly, when I first when I first started work on the video game, too, I had no idea like the process that went behind making a video game because I just thought it was all yeah, kind of and I thought I thought it was like animation or something. I honestly had no idea. Yeah, yeah, it's a different critter. Yeah, it's it's very technology

they use too is Yeah, real yeah. So yeah, but it's amazing. But yeah, and that's a hell of a franchise to be involved with. That's like gotta be like the number one or way up there. Yeah, oh yeah, it's it's way up there. It's like that. And you play Fortnite. Yeah, I saw a clippy. You're saying you play Fortnite? You still play? Yeah, I need to get your gamer tag after this. Yeah, dude, we gotta play. Yeah, I'm on it, dude. Actually I think, uh, it was actually a little

bit before COVID. But the thing is I have a really addictive personality and Fortnite is very addictive. Yeah, and so I actually it started off me playing just like on the control with my buddy, and then I ended up getting a PC because I was like, I want to get good at it. And uh, I actually completely devoted my life for like a year playing Fortnite. Were streaming, I was streaming, and then I actually started playing

competitively. No way, I don't think it was I don't think it was one of the like competitions before the World Cup, but I actually won like some of the cash cups. No, that's crazy. Well Cameron was knocking on that door. Yeah, yeah. My brother, my younger brother is like big gamer and he's an Apex guy, you know. Yeah, yeah, he plays Apex and I try to get into Apex, but I don't

know. I actually I think Apex is really fun. But at that time when I was like playing competitively, I guess Apex came out too, and I was like, nah, I gotta like keep playing Fortnite, Like, yeah, it's all working out, I honestly, bro. The thing is is, I'm I'm with Adidas for skating and stuff. And the thing is, and here you are wearing air Force ones, actually skating for skating. Walk it out. Yeah, yeah, we didn't hear that. Get nothing to see here. We'll dub over that. It's gonna say. Yeah.

But uh no. They were calling me though, too, and they were like, what the hell are you doing, Like we see you streaming and stuff like you got to keep skating stuff because obviously in the contract like you gotta dose content and stuff. But yeah, I've retired my Fortnite career. I just played for fun. Now I just teach classes and stuff there for the children. Yeah. You going for your your masters? Yeah, I'm going to college for a Fortnite Yeah, Fortnite Jesus, Well, there you

go. Yeah, I saw a clip too of you saying that, like, did you not like your performance in the first God of War or you just thought you hated it? Yeah, I mean I was younger though, too, and but there were some scenes well I mean, obviously I feel

like everyone is their own biggest critic. But the thing is, though, is the feedback that I got is that for the first one that people didn't like my character, but in a way to where they just I was like annoying to Krados, Which is kind of a good thing though, because that's how the character was kind of supposed to be, where I'm like kind of egotistical. Well, it gives a little friction, a little more interesting exactly.

And I remember actually when the first game came out, I would go on people's streams, but I would have an anonymous account and I'd be like, yes, so what do you think about that kid Trey? And I would just wow so many streams for hours. Because the thing is I wasn't on Twitter at the time, so I wasn't looking at like responses and stuff. So I would just go on streams and I would hear with people have

to say yeah. And then if they would say something good, I was like, I think I was like eleven or twelve, but they would say something good, I'm like, yeah, by the way, that's me. And then yeah, obviously they wouldn't believe me because it's a recognos account. But then I would like, I think I would like subscribe to them, be like yeah, yeah, I support you, like sporting me. So I you're a stealth bomber in there somewhere r Yeah exactly, it's just under

the radar. Yeah. Oh that's funny. Good for you. Yeah.
