Now I know you're a Game of Thrones fan, so I'm curious about like how people react to you now only because I think of like Bryce as a little bit of like a King Joffrey or perhaps like a Ramsay Snow and you know like those actors they always say how everybody like kind of like stands like is like a little like standoffish or like or what you know get or get like super aggressive with them and I'm curious about because the show has really taken off like how fans have reacted to you in particular.

I don't go out a lot in public. So that helps. So I recommend that to. Just become a hermit. Uh yeah. That's your only thing yeah. Um I you know there's like the social media response. Right, and now there's that factor too. Yeah, there's a lot of those that come through a lot of hate mail but but at the same time then there's also the fan base who argues my case and they're like, he's just an actor go away. And so thank you to you guys. I mean that's amazing.

You were pretty candid recently about your own experiences with bullying. So what prompted you to go into that and um, you know, what do you think of when you think of people like Bryce who are in your life?

Um, you know, I I think well obviously it's it's one of the product problems nowadays is is that you have especially with jocks and athletes because they're kind of they're above the line, you know, they they're they're untouchable because they make a lot of money for their school or or blah blah blah. So, um, so I think it's important that one, you know, we just we open a dialogue about it and start conversations and not and not keep sweeping it under the rug. Sure. Um, I mean in terms of my own life. I had little thing I'm from Tennessee. So you just you play sports as a kid. That's kind of what you do. And um, and there there was some cases of bullying, but it was a different type of bullying, you know, it's it's guys coming up and, you know, calling you names or some shoving or whatever and my parents were like just, you know, tell them to back off or you'll knock their teeth in and so that's what I did and it worked and then they stopped messing with me. But, you know,

Or get really famous and get on a Left Netflix show. And call them out. Yeah. I'm sure they're really sweet people out there. And name them by name. Spell it out and be like what now?

I won't do that. I won't do that. But, um, yeah, I mean it it's a different form of bullying. So Yeah. What we see in the show is sometimes it can be irreparable in a sense, you know, with with the whole social media craze, a lot of this stuff once it's out there, it's out there. So one we hope to start the conversation to to prevent these things from happening in the first place. Um, cuz it is different and we hope that parents are watching with their kids and they understand that bullying has changed. You can't just go up to someone and say, hey, stop, you know, even if they do stop what's been done is already out there potentially to a lot of people. Sure. Um, so that's one of the things we're excited about the show as well is kind of showcasing how it's changed and hopefully how to deal with it and and start parents talking with their kids and kids talking with their friends about how to kind of overcome these circumstances.
