And then you have your days off, you can go audition – I mean you look like you’re a vampire and you’re tired and you have a day off, you know? I spent a ton of years bartending and made a ton of money and had fun. You don’t really know how many friends you’ve got until you’re by the bar. And my high school friends, I snuck in the back, and they were sitting behind the bar trying not to get caught.

A little olive oil, a little lemon, a little salt and pepper, you can do anything with that.ĬHILLED: So in terms of wine, what’s in your drinks cabinet?

It’s kind of my favorite room in the house.ĬHILLED: When you’re in New Orleans, what’s your favorite food?ĬHILLED: What’s your favorite place to go when you’re in New Orleans?

Last year we kind of found the show and what’s really nice, being on USA is, they let us be free. ![]() MM: We’ve all started to kind of share a brain.
