this is the bird show the uh update on hayden um hayden got a call last week to do an on camera

interview to have a part in this new owen wilson movie that has been shooting around atlanta and uh it was

an audition and they really they said look um it's just it's just the perfect storm for him right now because one of the actors in the movie, Hayden looks like him as a kid.

So as this guy gets older, Hayden could be this guy as an adult.

So we need a younger version of this adult.

So why don't you bring him in?

And we'll put him on camera for a couple of minutes and we'll see if the producer likes him or not, which would have been a huge coup because he's never done anything except, you know, on stage stuff. And he's only been doing that for about a year now here around Atlanta. What was that the Susical? Wasn't that what he was in a few weeks ago? Yeah, Susical. What a leap to go from Susickel to an Owen Wilson movie. Right, right. So we got him an agent, and they booked him this audition, and a couple of weeks ago, he went down, and he literally was in their office for one minute. He comes in, they turn the camera on, they say, what's your name? He says, Hayden Weiss, they say, what color are your eyes? He says they are blue and they say,

thank you very much, Hayden. That was great. And then he leaves the office. Not wasting any time. Not wasting any time. I don't think it really had much to do with talent. I think it just had to do with how closely does Hayden look to this adult actor. And he wants to be an actor so badly. So What did he think of the whole experience?

He's so nonchalant about things.

Like, I think his parents are way more excited about it than he is. So he seems to like the whole process, but, you know, he's just not, I don't know, he's just not as excited. He doesn't get nervous in front of the camera or say, Daddy, I don't want to go. No. Because some kids will, like, talk a big game, and then they sort of freak out at the moment

of, you know. Hey, he's a performer, man. Well, right before he has to do anything, he gets a little freaked out. Like, he's confident, confident, confident. And then right before the lights go on, he gets a little freaked out, then the lights go on and he's fine. So I think the same thing happened with this audition.

And the little Yeagerbombs have helped him calm down too, right?

Totally, man.

Fifteen minutes before he's got to be on stage. fine. So I think the same thing happened with this audition. And the little Yeagerbombs have helped him calm down too, right?

I love it how you created that My Little Yeagerbomb.

And it's cool like you.

The funnel?

How about my little funnel?

You know, before you get freaked out, It's not a full Jaeger bomb.

It's actually a shot glass and a thimble. Yeah. So it's smaller, because Hayden is obviously smaller. So we don't be crazy. It's cute. So we got the call a couple of days ago that they gave the part to somebody else. Oh, Oh. Which was, which allowed us,
