randy needs to host a radio show kthx  
I've had Sia's Little Black Sandals on repeat all night. And now I really wish I owned some little black sandals aldkfja. I have red, I have blue, I have Hawaiian print, even! But no black. Which sucks cos I had plans to strut around in them tomorrow, all woman-empowered. It would've been awesome.


WELL HELLO TO YOU TOO, MR. HARRISONPANTS. So, yeah, I randomly got sidetracked by this transcript [livejournal.com profile] jelly_baby23 did back in 2004 (!!!) of a Randy radio interview (Party 93.1).


93.1: Well, I will say that from my stand point, in all four seasons, the best acting I saw in the show was [Gale's] portrayal of emotion, to you.
R: Yeah, he's ______(?), yeah.
93.1: I mean, oh my God, he really, really hit it.
R: Gale's fantastic, yeah.

IN MY HEAD, RANDY SAYS ALL THOSE "YEAHS" LIKE RAIN MAN ALDKFAJL.

BUT YES!

TRANSLATION:
R:
93.1:

R: Yeah. It's odd, though. I mean, it's Justin who did it, it's not me, it's the character who's moved so many people and really affected people's lives and, you know, it's an honor to play him and that people sort of associate me with that, because he's changed a lot of people's lives.
93.1: Yeah. I guess I should be kind of careful not to cross that line. Because I know that Randy and Justin are very different people.

TRANSLATION:
R:
93.1:

93.1: And of course we know that Brian had to deal with some really heavy emotions when Justin got gay bashed.
R: Right.
93.1: Talk about that a minute, and how that felt to have to play a character that, just because he was who he was, right after the gay prom, the most beautiful night in Justin' life, he gets bashed over the head simply because he's gay.
R: Right. I mean, playing that scene was really easy for me, but really hard for Gale, because I, I, you know, I just had to get knocked over the head. (laughs)
93.1: Yeah.
R: And Justin never knew what happened, so I never even had to play that that happened, really. I just needed to know when the fact bat was gonna hit me (laughing) and how fast I had to fall.

TRANSLATION:
93.1:
R:
93.1:
R:

Am so torn between being all *♥♥♥* over how he acknowledges that scene was v. hard for Gale and snickering with him about the details of getting hit in the head aldfja.

Also? "Gay prom"? Um. :|

Here's the whole interview: part 1 | part 2. The radio station also archived a copy on their own site, but the entire site is gone now. How rude to go out of business like that, radio station!


And now I'm off to watch me some Luke and Noah. ♥

I hate that I got into QaF so late that I missed all those things *sobs* I want to hear that interview. Or any other radio interview with them...

Thanks for posting this, even though you made me very, very sad *sobs some more*

And yay, Randy said Gale is fantastic :D

OMG your translation killed me, Reee!

And Randy says 'yeah' like Gale says 'you know', you know? Yeah. xD

Also, like [livejournal.com profile] akintay, I wished I got into QAF sooner too. :(( But we can always count on you to bring up all these gems for us! :D :X

*listens to song* Yep, little black sandals envy. :)

Your translation is priceless. *giggles*

93.1: Yeah. I guess I should be kind of careful not to cross that line. Because I know that Randy and Justin are very different people.
That made me laugh out loud. OMG, that is so profound. :D

R: Gale's fantastic, yeah.

I know right?! I love that song so.much. Oh, Sia. ♥

Poor Randy. I can feel his pain. *snickers*

You just know he had to edit what he really wanted to say. "Gale's fantastic at giving blowjobs, yeah."

LOL... poor Randy. I think the interviewer secretly wanted to ask "What it was like to rub up against naked Gale," but was too scared to ask.

[identity profile] url-girl.livejournal.com on June 20th, 2008 01:54 am (UTC)
LOL! Totally. Makes me wonder what all the guy said to him before and after the interview. :P

*g* Loved your translations! I like how he acknowledged that the bashing scene was difficult for Gale. I had read that somewhere else as well.

Thanks for this!

Thanks to the internet, I even think in YLM now whenever I read/see something. ;D

Another reason to love Randypants. I so wish we had more behind-the-scenes stuff for that scene. And, y'know, the entire series. But especially that scene.

LOL! I CRINGED THROUGH THIS ENTIRE INTERVIEW.

But ... I couldn't say anything because you know *cough* I copied it with my trusty computer microphone.

I know that I don't really need to ask you but do you want it? Or did you lose it in the great hard drive loss of years past? :(

AND THAT IS WHY I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. I MEAN, LOOK AT HIS ANGRY FACE. IT IS THE FACE OF SOMEONE WHO HATES INTERVIEWS. AND ... I LOVE IT. :X
