EH: So I’m a workaholic. I actually was trying to break it to the Tide people that I wasn’t actually really that into sports or football, and I was trying to say it to them, and then at one point [chuckles], the brand guy was like: “We got that you weren’t into football when you called their uniforms ‘costumes'”, so, yeah, we’re on the same page.” But I did watch it, I was at a Super Bowl party, and I too watch the Super Bowl for the ads and I go to the Super Bowl parties mainly for the snacks.

And that's a hard thing to do.

I had to ask Dan: “Wait, what’s the third wine? François Arnaud is a friend of mine and I really wanted to have him in that part and to get to be part of that casting process, it was just everything. when we go to our shows, and the DMs we get from people [about] how the show has affected them, it always ends up being 'love is love.'

That is the takeaway, and I think it's done it better than anything I've ever seen. I’ve been to a rock concert before in which…I’m so old that I call it a rock concert, even if it is just a regular concert, but anyway, you can feel the energy that an audience gives the person on stage, and the energy that we get is so…and this is going to sound crazy, but it’s true, it’s just this wave of fucking love and inclusion and you see it when they ask questions or when they see us outside.
