How are you guys?
Pretty good.
That's a cool t shirt.
All right, let's cut
that tape.
Keeping it in the family.
Thanks guys.
Congratulations on the show.
Thank you. Thank you.
It's great fun.
I wanted to ask you about first.
I mean, you you guys have come into the series as it's come along.
Is there some sort of hazing that goes on?
And is there something that you guys have to do? Joining.
Joining the series, you have to get up and say,
you know, I know in football teams, all sports teams,
when you when you're new signing, you have to have to do certain things.
No, I think that's illegal now.
So I think if I do the hazing anymore,
I don't get it.
No, I mean, I think the hazing becomes internal.
Like basically when you're on an an a well-oiled, oiled machine,
the way that Jack Ryan is like, you just don't want to mess it up.
And then, you know, the cooler it is, the more kind of pressure
comes with it.
So, like, you know, I saw Jack Ryan season one than season two
and the three hasn't come out yet.
And I was like, All right, this is a really good show.
I just don't want to mess it up.
So in that way it was like an hazing, but it was internally.
That's good to have jam sessions where we would sing in front of each other.
Yeah, but that wasn't part of the it was no hazing.
There was no judgment.
Yeah. All in good fun. Yeah.
There's an album potentially down the down the line for you too then.
Yeah.
I don't, I don't know about that but like it was like a purely for private use.
I read jamming and I was like I was playing the drums
and some of the bass, and then we would just leave the
session.
They weren't really dedicated.
It'd be hard to form a band when they're like, Sorry, I got to take this.
I got a I got to tweet about that.
Now let's make it happen because I didn't do it.
Let's do it.
I mean, the show obviously is coming coming to an end,
but it's a show that's really had an impact on so many people.
Now, you've been in the show.
Can you see, as you were saying before, about how well old it is
and that kind of stuff, just why it's been so successful?
People have really kind of taken to a character
that's been around for a long time in this new and this new guys.
I mean, it's Jack Ryan.
It's John Krasinski, it's Wendell Pierce,
Mike Kelly, and now it's Michael Peña
And Louis Ozawa, you know, we're taking it into 2023.
We're in a new world now. We've had,
you know, this is we talk about convergence.
I think I can talk about this.
It's, you know, it's not just about the drug cartels.
It's not just about terrorism, these two coming together.
And that's a frightening combination.
And it's also lends itself to lots of intrigue and excitement and drama.
And I think people will definitely enjoy that.
Yeah. I mean, for me, it was like
it's interesting because, like, you're you're following Jack Ryan.
You really are, you know, and he's he's just a
like a good guy that just, like, hates injustice, you know what I mean?
He just doesn't like,
you know, he he roots for the little guy all the time, you know?
And he's like an unlikely hero.
But I think the way that John plays it, to be honest with you, I think it's
it fits his personality and who he is pretty well.
And so you're able to jump along and on on the ride that he's providing.
And then obviously, the storylines kind of fit him pretty well.
And so and then you look at the surrounding characters and they all
they all have very specific purposes.
And then, you know, to be honest with you, the bad guys are really good.
You know, like I remember in season one, that guy was amazing.
And so, yeah, but you understood that.
The thing is, is that you understood his motivation.
You understood why he became who he was. Yeah. Yeah.
So, like, so like, okay, yeah, he's doing this.
I kind of get it, you know what I mean?
Like, what would happen if something like that happened to me?
Like, I wouldn't be a happy go lucky guy, you know, camp or whatever.
Yeah. So you understand their motivation.
And then so you see where the conflict, right?
You know why it exists.
There's no good and bad people.
Good bad guys necessarily.
You know, there are some bad guys. There are.
But I mean, killing innocent people, even people.
But even in season four, by the time you get Jack Ryan in season
four, his hair, he was squeaky clean and first season
at the top of the first season, and now it's four years later.
And, you know, yeah, there have been things that have happened
and I think that makes it even more interesting, you know?
And so similarly, when when they presented this project to me,
you know, they talked about going back,
coming around full circle to the first season.
And so I think fans of the first season will see kind of the lineage and see
some of the kind of intrigue, especially in the in the antagonist Hi guys.
I wish I had more time, but that's my time off.
Thank you so much for joining on. Right on.
Thanks so much, guys, guys.
