00:00I don't want to know my answer. I don't want to know your answer.
00:02I'm just in the...
00:03He beat me at Connect Four today. I was devastated.
00:05As soon as the wedding happened, suddenly he became like this.
00:08Guys, good to see you. Welcome to Home Act.
00:10Thank you. It's always a blessing to be home.
00:13This is such a cute little brotherhood, the two of you.
00:16I'm curious, how do the senses of humour match up?
00:19Because we've got one Brit and we've got one American,
00:22and they don't always go together well.
00:24But I'm curious how you guys get on.
00:27We're very in alignment.
00:28I think we certainly have, you know, different energies,
00:35but actually that is, I think to a certain degree,
00:40the aesthetic component of energy is one thing,
00:45but then the core of energy is another thing,
00:47and our core matches.
00:49You know, I might sometimes be very calm
00:51and Kelvin might be, you know, ready to go,
00:55but actually our core is what matches,
00:58and that's why we're so close.
00:59You're always ready to go, Kelvin.
01:02I definitely always got a lot of energy,
01:03but you know what's crazy?
01:04It's like, I feel like in the world,
01:07that's what it seems like.
01:08When we were just hanging out solo,
01:09we'd be on the same vibe.
01:10That's very true.
01:11I'm not always loud.
01:13There's not any competitiveness between the two of you
01:15or anything like that?
01:16No, I mean, with board games, but like outside of that,
01:20no, no, I would never dream of being in a competitive situation.
01:26That's not fun. We like to have fun.
01:28No, no, no, that's not it at all.
01:30It's good to know you've got competitive streak in you
01:32for like board games.
01:33Yeah, for board games.
01:34He beat me at Connect Four today.
01:35I was devastated.
01:36Did you let me win?
01:37No.
01:38I thought about that afterwards.
01:41I was a very graceful defeat, I think.
01:46Yeah, yeah.
01:47I tried. I shook his hand. I don't know.
01:48I shook his hand.
01:51Obviously, the two of them, they both like,
01:53sorry, in the film, they both like Sarabi,
01:56and I'm curious to get your advice on what you think
01:58the best way to win someone over is.
02:01I'm interested to know.
02:03You want to know the answer? I want to know your answer.
02:06I don't know.
02:08Best way to win somebody over?
02:11I don't know. I feel like just being light
02:13and having a sense of humour and just knowing how to have a good time.
02:16Yeah.
02:17If you can make somebody laugh and you can show them
02:19that you love life and that person can live life with you,
02:24then I feel like you're in.
02:27That's all I do. I'm just myself.
02:29I don't really try tricks or things.
02:32I have no riz.
02:34I love that we're using riz.
02:36I have zero.
02:37I think for me, I think it's just being yourself
02:41because that way, if the individual likes you,
02:46they like you for you, and if they don't,
02:48they don't like you for you.
02:49That's much better than being someone you're not
02:53and them liking that.
02:54Right.
02:55And then you have to keep up.
02:57That's too exhausting.
02:58That's what happened to my dad.
03:01My mom told me, he going to kill me.
03:03I love you, man.
03:04My mom told me, she said he was peeking in his deep voice
03:07on all his little first dates.
03:08She said, as soon as the wedding happened,
03:11suddenly he became like this.
03:14I said, no.
03:15He was older, blah, blah, blah.
03:17Sounded like Aaron.
03:18I was going to say, Aaron, are you putting this on?
03:20We're going to have to find out, right?
03:21Are you going to start talking in a high voice?
03:23Can you imagine?
03:25That'd be crazy.
03:26That would be wild.
03:27You know what?
03:28Tiffany gave me a very similar answer,
03:30so you two are very much in alignment.
03:31I like that.
03:32There he is.
03:33OK, man.
03:34I'm sorry.
03:34I know about that.
03:36Yeah, you're just on the outside of it, Cameron.
03:38Yep.
03:38Me and Kyril.
03:39What's up, man?
03:42And I'm curious, what is your most animal-like quality?
03:46Because I feel like I'm very much like the male lions,
03:50and I would be napping all the time.
03:51Are you guys like that, or how are you?
03:55I like stumping you guys.
03:57But do you know what it is?
03:58We actually are thinking about the answer.
04:01I really love wolves because they're pack animals,
04:07and I'm very close with my family and my friends.
04:10We're like airtight.
04:12So I love that they're very in alignment with each other,
04:15and they're actually very successful in the wild
04:19because they're so in tune.
04:21So I like that about wolves, yeah.
04:22I'm a squirrel.
04:23It just dawned on me.
04:24I don't see an insect.
04:25Which color squirrel, though?
04:26Because you know they got the red ones,
04:27they got the black ones, they got the gray ones.
04:28They got different colored squirrels.
04:29Yeah.
04:30Yeah.
04:31I've only heard of one squirrel.
04:32What color?
04:33I'm the ones in the cartoons, the brown ones.
04:37The generic squirrel.
04:39I'm generic squirrel.
04:40I'm just in the, you know what I mean?
04:41Yeah, I hear you.
04:42Don't you think that's me?
04:44OK.
04:45Nah.
04:45Nah.
04:46No, you know I love you.
04:47I know.
04:48It's good.
04:49You know I love you.
04:51Whatever makes you happy.
04:53I hope that this does really well for you guys
04:55because it's really great and really lovely to meet you.
04:58You as well.
04:58Take care, guys.
04:59Thank you so much.
04:59Take care.
05:00You too.
