You're making me cry. Karen and Tom, welcome to Hart's Evening Show
0:07
How are you both? So happy to be here. Thanks for having us. It's a pleasure
0:11
I love to start off my chats by being a little bit nosy. Seeing as we're on in the evening
0:16
I love to find out how our guests spend a night. I find myself on the sports highlights
0:21
It's football and it's, or if there's been a tennis championship that I've missed. Ooh, okay
0:25
And I'll go on and read. There's all these sports journalists who write really beautifully about sport
0:30
and I love reading what they've written. It's kind of nerdy. We did just find out Taylor Swift
0:36
big fan of a sourdough recipe blog. Very, very specific, but I can see how you can get into that
0:43
That is specific. Wait, that feels like an Easter egg for something. No, I think it might be
0:50
like something to do with the Super Bowl. Oh, you think she's teasing the fact that she's..
0:53
Yeah, yeah, because there's like, where's the Super Bowl? Which city? And then isn't the sourdough the mascot for that city or something
0:58
i feel like there's a little you've got deep knowledge of the no i just i literally saw a
1:03
tick tock of this about this subject matter i tell you what if that is true that is pretty impressive
1:09
that's amazing as well as sourdough recipes and evening routines i'm obviously very excited to
1:17
talk to you about the life of chuck amazing performances from both of you um i also feel
1:22
like i also feel like there's um so many moments in it that i took away some many memorable moments
1:26
but there is one in particular i can't stop thinking about tom the incredible dancing scene
1:33
i mean thank you i watched that right going there is no way tom has only just learned to
1:38
dance for this film surely you've been doing years and years of ballroom lessons no i did
1:45
no i mean i always like you know flailed my arms and legs around at family weddings and hopefully in some sort of coherent order and i went to dance school and i did six weeks of training and on monday i would do jazz and on
2:00
tuesday i would do swing and on wednesday i would do the cha-cha and on thursday i would do the
2:05
charleston friday would be how are your legs well i came away uh thinking about i came away from
2:14
watching this thinking about what inspired me when i was younger how important it is to have a dream
2:18
karen you've obviously pursued something that you're like really passionate about for a long
2:22
time with acting and writing and filmmaking was there a moment for you as a kid where
2:27
it was that light bulb moment of yes this is definitely what i want to do for a living
2:32
i don't remember a definitive moment where i decided it just sort of was always there
2:36
i think it started by me like making up these characters and i would perform them
2:40
at my schoolmates and they weren't willing to receive it but I just sort of I don't know I
2:48
think there was something interesting about escaping myself through this thing um and so
2:53
and that felt like a relief or something and I was like oh maybe I could just make a career out
2:56
of this well I did a little bit of digging right I managed to have a chat with somebody that you
3:01
