Drew: Nicole I hope to gosh you have Speedy with you.

Nicole: Don’t you worry Speedy is right here.

Drew: Okay thank goodness because I was like, Jeremy, we might look crazy if Nicole doesn’t have Speedy. Wait how old is he? Because Jeremy, who is a girl. I love the name Speedy by the way.

Nicole: I just got news from Speedy’s doctor that Speedy might be a girl.

Drew: Well I have some information to offer you. I am Dr. Drew-little. Dr. Drew-little found out if you’d like to figure out the sex of your bearded dragon, here’s how. Under this part of the tail you will feel a nub if it ‘s a girl and a prong if it’s a boy. Does it feel like a wishbone.

Nicole: Oh, it’s a nub, Speedy you’re a boy.

Drew: No, the nub is a girl. Speedy’s a girl.

Nicole: What? Speedy. You know what I love my children no matter who they are, no matter what sex they are. So, I’m fine with it. Has Jeremy, the girl, puffed out her beard at you?

Drew: She has with Lucky our cat, in the Dr. Drew-little home, it’s nuts. And Jeremy and Lucky the cat they fully are besties. Lucky will lick and kiss Jeremy’s face and every once in a while Jeremy will puff and be like I had enough.

Nicole: Feel for the nub or the prong is going to be my new life motto. We are going to a double feel after, I’m going to check one more time after we’re done.

Nicole On Creating Alter Ego Nikki Fre$h

https://drewbarrymoreshow.cimediacloud.com/r/Cx6xtwkZjHXe

Drew: How did you come up with the whole persona?

Nicole: I’ve had an edible garden, I started that about six or seven years ago. The idea of gardening and growing your own food was just something that was very interesting to me. Once I started doing it I just really fell in love with it. My friends sometimes would make fun of me like, ‘Oh you’re an old lady, this isn’t cool.’ I would be like how does gardening have this reputation? I actually feel like it’s the most cool and exciting. How do I communicate to the masses how amazing, exciting, spiritual, gardening is? I was like, ‘Well I think I have to do it through Trap music,’ but then I was like, ‘I can’t do Trap music. I have too much respect for the genre. So I’m going to create my own genre. Which is Parent Trap.’ Which is people like us, moms that love music and love to have a good time, that’s me and you Drew. Who love to have a good time and dance but I’m not up at 11pm, so my peak hour is in the car right after I drop off the kids at school, I need music for that too.

Drew: Sometimes I feel like this is tapping into a part of me that was alive and well many years ago and maybe hasn’t totally died but wants to rebirth in a healthy way.

Nicole: Yeah, the only thing that’s died are my midnight hours. I am still very much the same person and I love dancing.

Drew: I love that you’re saying this it makes me feel a lot less crazy for having my inner disco dolly still intact.

 

Drew on Creating Flower Films, ‘I didn’t have directors like, ‘I would love to work with her,’ It just didn’t happen.’

https://drewbarrymoreshow.cimediacloud.com/r/XBAP1GVLTrRn

Nicole: Sometimes you have to create your own roles, I think whatever you’re doing whether it’s designing or acting…a lot of that stuff comes from the person saying to themselves, ‘I wish there was a story about this.’ Even me with House of Harlowe, I used to be like, ‘I wish I had a kimono,’ you just think about things that you would want that don’t’ exist and you’re like, well I guess I will go and create it myself….when you have that creative spark it’s important to run after it and take advantage of it.

Drew: I think that is excellent advice….strike while the iron is hot, grab that inspiration when you have it. You always think in a dream you’re going to remember that in the morning and sometimes you don’t. I’m equating it to that metaphor, go after it and catch those butterflies in your net.

Nicole: I remember you saying something to me along the lines of that even when you were looking for roles they weren’t really written for you and that’s why you had to start making them yourself.

Drew: Yeah, and no one called me. I didn’t have directors like, ‘I would love to work with her.’ It just didn’t happen. Every once in a while I would get the fortune of working with someone I really looked up to and respected but for the most part that phone did not ring. So I was like, I’m going to build the telephone and call people with that telephone and make it ring for myself. But really it became so much about creating jobs for a lot of different people in the goal of wanting to make fun things.

 

Wildlife Vet Dr. Evan Antin on His New Book’s Cover & Advice For Drew’s Daughter Who Wants To Be A Vet

https://drewbarrymoreshow.cimediacloud.com/r/OjiTxZXZ2wyQ

Drew: When you were shooting the cover of your book did you bring in inspiration pictures? Was there a nice Calvin Klein shot? You are giving it in this picture. World Wild Vet, it’s so striking.

Evan: I love that picture, yeah I went online and googled just men holding giant lizards on their shoulders and I found so many great pictures. I’m kidding. It just happened,…that lizard, that was a very sweet Asian Water Monitor lizard, and she was just cooperative. I thought it would be a fun idea honestly.

Drew: You know my daughter Olive, her nickname is Ace Ventura because she has that gift. She has that gift with animals and she’s obsessed with them and she wants to be a veterinarian. Do you have any advice for her?

Evan: My biggest advice would be just as much for you and that’s just to cultivate that. Get her books and shows and help her learn and take her to the zoo, good zoos to get her exposed and just feed that interest of hers.
