0:00.0	Hello everyone. Welcome to another special Friday episode of Office Ladies. This week, we are sharing our
0:09.4	interview with Chelsea Fry from the paper. The paper is coming out on September 4th on Peacock,
0:15.8	and we found out they are planning to release the first four episodes. That's right. We got our links to view them before they air.
0:23.6	Yes, they sent us the first four episodes. I am so excited. This is one of the benefits of being
0:30.0	part of the office universe. We get to see these shows early and lady, I am here for it.
0:34.6	I know. We get to see them, but we do have to wait to do our breakdown until
0:39.0	after the show has premiered, because no spoilers. Yeah. So until then, we have to keep everything to
0:44.7	ourselves. Oh, by the way, Ang, did you know that there is a rumor that we have cameos on the paper?
0:57.5	Seriously? Yes. Yes. Like what kind of rumor? Okay, well,

1:47.3	There is a familiar face on the paper. That news is out. Oscar Nunez is reprising his role of Oscar Martinez. That's right. But Jen and I are not on the paper. Correct. Are in the paper. We're not on it or in it. We are not. We just visited it. That's it. Well, I'm glad we cleared that up. And now, we really hope that you enjoy this interview with Chelsea Fry.
1:51.7	You might know her from the series The Cleaning Lady or Animal Control.
1:53.5	She is an absolute sweetheart.
2:02.8	Chelsea shares about how she got her job on the paper and the secret code name everyone had to use to keep the show under wraps on the universal lot.
2:03.5	Mm-hmm.
2:05.3	We hope you enjoy.
2:12.7	All right, will you please tell us your name and tell us your character name?
2:16.1	I'm Chelsea Frye, and my character name is Mayor Preeti.
