[paper peeling]

have a YouTube channel?

I sure don't.

Most forms of social media stress me out.

And the thought of making videos of myself

also stresses me out.

Even though she's an actress for a living.

[Madelyn laughs]

[card thumps]

[J.D.] How did Madison Bailey and Mariah Linney meet?

Aw, that's adorable.

We met on Tik ToK.

She made a Tik ToK, shouted me out and was like,

Hey, basically, I think you're cute.

And I saw it.

That was how we met and then messaged her from there on out.

Love story as old as time.

It's like, I would love to say anything but Tik Tok,

but like you know, it is what it is.

It is what it is. You can embrace it.

How did Madison Bailey,

on the way to Charleston

when Rudy had already booked Outer Banks

and I was going there to audition.

I can't read it,

become an actress?

and stayed committed to it and

eventually booked and

Talent.

Long story short, I don't know. [chuckles]

No. Like if you say James in my general direction,

Well, like in high school and stuff,

it was James Alexander Stokes on all the roll call sheets.

So I had a really hard time explaining to my teachers that

my name wasn't actually on there.

So a lot of teachers who didn't believe me,

and that's partially because I was not the best student

in high school, in college.

So, you know, it felt like I was immediately

trying to cause problems.

But in reality, I was just trying to give my name.

So jokes on you, teachers.

What is Chase Stokes'

Alexander Chase?

Yeah. Good job.

Wow. That was fast.

You got two middle names.

I got a double whammy middle name.

What is Chase Stokes' favorite color?

that I'm going with.

It is nice.

I do like a mint green. It's a nice color.

What has Chase Stokes blanked?

Remember that time we bought those

matching Cowboy Bebop shirts, Rudy?

Yeah. That was like the first-

Like we didn't, we didn't do it on purpose.

Like we just walked in like, oh, I also bought that shirt.

Yeah. We went in two separately different times.

And we walked into the same store

and it was the same exact shirt.

[clears throat] Where Madelyn Cline.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I enjoy Goodwill trips.

I like to go to vintage stores.

Big fan of Crossroads in LA.

I like Wasteland.

Any sort of used clothing store is kind of

It's the time to have a good used t-shirt.

[Chase] Where is Madelyn Cline- Here.

Now? Right here.

Undisclosed location.

Found ya.

[Madelyn laughs]

That's dumb.

Where, where did Madelyn Cline go to college?

So I went to college for a hefty six weeks

at Coastal Carolina university.

I dropped out right before midterms

so I'm pretty sure all my teachers thought

[Chase] I just didn't- Exist

Want to take tests.

Didn't have to. It was like

Best excuse ever. That was cool.

One time, I also fainted in class.

Hm? I did.

And everybody got out of class early so,

y'all are welcome. [clapping]

You're the real MVP.

Where did Madelyn Cline study acting?

I haven't formally studied.

I took some classes in LA,

I took some in New York,

but it was never like a formal

getting your BFA or something.

I've never done that before.

All right, J.D.

How,

How old is Jonathan Daviss?

I'm 21.

21.

21.

How tall is Jonathan Davis? Pretty tall.

I'm like six foot, 6'1.

6' 1 in some shoes on a good day.

A good height.

Is that what you slate with? 6'1?

No, I slate with six foot.

I slate sometimes depending on the part,

I'll slate with five ten.

How,

How did Jonathan Daviss?

How did Jonathan Daviss?

[J.D.] There we go. Get into acting.

How did Jonathan Daviss get into acting?

When I was little, I was like, you know,

nine, 10 years old.

I used to watch a lot of movies just with my family and

I used to watch all the bonus features

like all the extras and everything

and I just really, really liked

the idea of being a part of that process

and, you know, slowly I found I kind of had a

knack for it from you know, 10 years old up.

I always wanted to be an actor.

I used to have the first Spider-Man movie on DVD.

And like, I used to watch the mess

out of like how they did all the stunts

and the other one was a, is a movie

that also inspired my friend here, Rudy Pankow.

I think he knows the exact movie I'm talking about.

The 2003 Peter Pan movie.

Oh my gosh.

Dude. Yeah. We talked about that.

That was another movie I had when I was a kid that

just was like on D like, you know,

we had like five movies total in my house,

Peter Pan and Spider-Man both molded me and J.D.

That's for sure.

Does Chase Stokes?

Do you want to pull it?

Yeah!

Pull away.

Does, uh oh, I guess we're starting with this one.

Does Chase Stokes have a tattoo?

I do. I have a smiley face right here.

And then I have this little guy,

which is my grandmother's signature. It says love, Joan.

And then this is a dove of a dove.

It's a dove.

It's a dove.

No, a dove is always signifying

that somebody is watching over you.

So, when she passed,

this was the last letter that she wrote to me.

So I had a tattoo artist, sketch it on my skin so,

that's that. And then this is just Frank.

[Madelyn] We named him Frank.

Okay. Next one. The top one.

Uh oh. Does Chase Stokes have siblings?

Yeah. I have a, I've got a Brady bunch full of siblings.

I have four siblings

and then I have four step siblings as well.

Christmas is fun.

[Madelyn] Does chase Stokes,

[Chase] Does Chase Stokes,

dye his hair?

Yeah, I do.

Sometimes.

I've gone blonde.

I'm darker now.

This is more of like my natural color.

And then for the show,

I do some nice little sun-kissed highlights,

which actually naturally come during the summer

if I get in the sun a lot.

So I usually don't have to retouch it because

they just naturally come out. So.

[drumming on lap]

Does Chase Stokes actually surf?

Actually, I do.

I do surf. I do enjoy surfing.

We actually had a good time in Barbados

because if I'm allowed to say this,

we stayed in Barbados and shot a part of season two.

When we weren't quarantined,

we were able to go out and surf

and we had an awesome break right out front of our hotel.

So the little chances I did have to go out and surf,

took advantage of it so.

And I grew up in Florida, not too far from Cocoa Beach.

So that's where I started.

It's a special place in my heart.

For this one, our google search is, is Outer Banks.

Is Outer Banks.

Is Outer Banks a book?

[all laugh]

So no, no, it's it's, it's an original idea.

However, there was a little lawsuit a while ago

when this English teacher said that Outer Banks was based

off a book he wrote called, and I quote,

Black Beard, a Pirates Treasure.

I think that's what it is. Black Beard, a Pirate's Treasure.

Shout out

Safe to say, no, it's not based off of that book.

It's an original idea It's not a book.

Written by Shannon Burke, Josh Pate, and Jonas Pate.

Is Outer Banks

[J.D.] Based on a true story?

[Madison laughs]

Yes and no. So.

Yes and no, right?

It's based off of real, a real place, and like

Yeah.

and the Royal Merchant's a real ship, right? Right?

Yes. It's not called the Royal Merchant though.

I went looking for it.

It's not there anymore.

[J.D.] Is Outer Banks Short one.

This is gonna be a nice

[J.D.] Is Outer Banks,

what does it say? A,

Oh gosh.

Is Outer Banks a city?

A city.

[JD] Yeah.

[Madison] Yes. A Town.

It's a little island city off the

little island town off the-

It's a region.

You can visit it. It exists.

[All] Yes, yes, yes, yes.

Correct. Now.

[JD] Coming back with a season two?

[claps]

Yeah, we are.

Why yeah, it is.

Damn straight!

[J.D.] Is Outer Banks,

filming now?

It is sadly not. No, not not right now.

But probably when you looked it up, it was.

Is Outer Banks,

[J.D.] looking for, Looking for,

[Rudy] Oh gosh. Extras. Oh, extras.

[Madison laughing] I'm not good at this.

Currently, no.

Currently not filming.

Cause we're not filming.

Oh, Outer Banks questions.

I've got a pointer stick now.

Oh, nice.

Why outer banks? Why?

Why? Why?

It's a very existential question.

[Madelyn] Why?

Okay. Well this is why we can't have nice things.

I'm sorry.

Why is Outer Banks a good?

Okay.

Okay, here. Here, here, here.

Look at that. But no, no, I, I,

Maybe if you lick it?

I don't think that's a good idea. [laughs]

[Madelyn] Tastes like an envelope. Why,

[Madelyn] is Outer Banks a good show?

I feel like that's one of those kind of DIY situations where

you watch the show and you know, kind of figure out

why it is a show.

Did you just call Outer Banks a DIY show?

[laughs]

Build your own adventure.

I feel like you should just watch a show and

make your own opinion because everybody has one

and if you watch it, maybe you like it.

Maybe you don't.

It has a lot of really good messages behind it.

It talks a lot about friendship and

being present for the people around you.

And I think we do a really good job of giving

an authentic take on the teenage experience

and not shying away from a lot of things that I think

society doesn't want to talk about.

The comradery on and off screen is definitely my favorite.

What's really cool about it is everybody kind of

has a bit of their character in them.

Pope's what comes straight from J.D. That's all him.

He's so incredibly quick and hilarious.

Rudy is just so good with physical comedy,

which really really brought JJ to life.

Bailey's hilarious. Like on set,

you know, the boys would be doing something ridiculous

and Bailey would just be, [laughs]

She'd be like Can you guys stop?

Not mad.

Maybe a little disappointed. But disappointed.

[Madelyn] Okay. Next question.

Why is Outer Banks scary?

See, I, I wouldn't say,

There's some scary parts.

Really?

Yeah.

Ms. Crane scared me last year.

Oh Ms. Crane was scary.

But that's the only thing that's scary.

I think,

It's suspenseful.

Yeah. That's what I was going to say.

Why visit the outer banks? Blank.

I just think you should.

There's a lot of really great putt putt golf.

The beaches are beautiful.

There's some really big sand dunes.

I would say 9.5 out of 10.

Not 10 out of 10 because mosquitoes.

We actually don't shoot in the actual Outer Banks.

So this was a little bit of a trick question.

We shoot in Charleston, which is very similar

to the Outer Banks,

but then South Carolina versus North Carolina.

Why is Outer Banks

rated TV-MA?

Are we rated TV-MA?

I think because there is a tad bit of violence,

There's some fights.

There's dome drug and alcohol related

[card thuds]

drug and alcohol related content,

and there's a couple

hot and heavy scenes.

Ish.

Ish.

Very low on the hot and heavy scale,

but I think they still fall under that category.

I still can't believe we're rated TV-MA.

Thank you guys for watching.

I hope we did actually answer your questions

and you know a little bit more about all of us.

We'll see you soon.

We will?

Possibly. Hope so.

Thanks for having us.

Thanks you guys.

It's been a pleasure.

Thank you.
