00:00You've also got two younger brothers.

00:02So I'm an older sister myself.

00:04Do you ever give your brothers words of wisdom

00:06about life, work, love, whatever?

00:09Do they listen?

00:10Now, yes.

00:11I think as we were like, as we were getting older,

00:13as not just brothers, but also as artists,

00:16there's a rogue aspect in us always,

00:18where we got to kind of do our own thing

00:20and like, eh, I'll find it myself

00:22and I'll do the whole road.

00:23But I think as we've gotten older,

00:25we've begun to learn that we've all learned

00:28the same lessons over and over again.

00:31So there's ways to skip them.

00:33And I can just kind of like,

00:34hey, I hate to kill the journey for you,

00:38but this is how this is gonna end.

00:40It always ends this way.

00:42Here's how you can kind of get around that.

00:45So that's been really nice.

00:46There was like a situation not too long ago

00:49where I, for some reason, decided to,

00:51you know, date an ex.

00:52And my brother was like,

00:53and you really thought that would go differently

00:54this time, didn't you?

00:56He said that to you, Tyler?

00:57He told you that?

00:58Yes, he's like, and look at you.

01:00You somehow thought that would be different.

01:02And I was like, yeah, that's kind of,

01:04that's what we're here for.

01:05What is something you look for

01:07in a potential partner?

01:08I grew up in Hollywood.

01:09So like the, how you look

01:11doesn't really matter as much.

01:13We out here, everybody's pretty.

01:16It's not, it's like, everybody's pretty.

01:17Fast.

01:18It's, that's, it's not a flex.

01:22But it's somebody who I can look at them

01:24and the decisions that they've made

01:25and the life that they've built for themselves.

01:27I'm in my thirties now.

01:28And it's like, I'm impressed

01:29by what you did here.

01:31I think everybody should be proud

01:33of the person that they're with

01:34and proud to be with the person

01:36that they're with.

01:37Alrighty.

01:38I'm going to put 10 seconds on the clock.

01:39Promote any one of your projects.

01:41Ready?

01:41Go.

01:42Abbott Elementary is still going on

01:44and it's still really good.

01:45It feels like we're doing the best work

01:46that we've ever done.

01:48I feel like we're just hitting our stride.

01:50If you want to really laugh,

01:52that's our priority at the end of the day.

01:54Tyler, thank you so much for being here.

01:57Appreciate you, my girl.
