I knew I would need to bring a sweater because Robbie likes everything so freaking cold. Do I? Yes. You are cold? You know why you're cold? Because you're shredded and ripped and healthy vegan freak woman. I'm not a vegan. I eat everything. It's not true. It is. I eat everything. It is. I guess you're right. I started eating red meat like again, like a year ago, and I'm into it. I'm very excited that you're cooking tonight for us. I know. You're the best cook. I mean, like, legitimately, first of all, Academy Award-winning actresses should not be able to cook. Oh, my God. They shouldn't. That's, like, mutually exclusive concept. That's reductive. We can be more than one thing, Rob.

I haven't met many.

On today's podcast of literally with Rob Lowe, I have one of my oldest pals in show business.

One of my closest friends to this day who usually is occupying a guest bedroom in our house,

Academy Award winning actress and philanthropist and business

tycoon and hilarious person, great mother, Gwyneth Paltrow.

I do love cooking. I find it, it relaxes me. It's creative output. It's, um... How do you make the food look so good, though? Because it's like it's yummy, yum, yummy, but it also looks like it's been doctored by those people on the set that put glycerin on it, with an eyedropper? I don't know. I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I, all I care about is how it tastes. But I try to make it look appetizing, obviously. But I think if you're using good quality ingredients and you care about what you're doing, it always looks good in the end. You know what I mean? That's the theory of like when you cook it for yourself, it always tastes better because you, you've put love into it. Yeah. I think that's true. How long have I known you?

I met you.

I want to hear your side of it, for I give you my side.

Okay.

So I met Cheryl before I met you.

I met Cheryl when I was...

My wife, Cheryl.

Yep.

I met the Mrs. Lowe when I was 15 or 16. She was a makeup artist at the time

doing a certain Blythe Danner's makeup. The best. My mother. I have my own Blythe thing,

which we also need to get to now. So she was doing my mom's makeup on this TV movie, and I went in down to visit.

Was it in Florida?

It was in Florida.

And I was, I met Cheryl, and I was like immediately obsessed with her.

First of all, she was dating Keanu Reeves, who was my celebrity crush.

And she was so cool.
