Hey, RJ here hanging out at the Four Seasons Suite, the Young Hollywood Studio with the beautiful Alyssa Milano.
Thank you.
So romantically challenged. You're not romantically challenged anymore, I take it in real life.
Not anymore. No, but uh, you know, I had many years in my 20s of being extremely romantically challenged.
How often do you play games? I mean everyone knows dating, it's you play the games and it's a
Yeah, well that was my problem. I was so bad at at at the games. You know, I didn't go to a regular
You gotta know game, come on.
I didn't go to a regular high school. Okay. So what that meant was I didn't get to do all of that, you know, flirting by the lockers and the whole get invited to a dance and that that whole thing. So I sort of went through figuring out that there was a game in my 20s where I think normally people go through that at like 16, 17.
Everybody knows like there are the few people that you follow on Twitter, Alyssa's always one of them. How did you become one of those people? That
It makes me so proud. Right? Um, you know, actually my mother, who's, who's always been very sort of tech savvy, convinced me to open an account. didn't really get the power of it at that point. And then the protests happened in Iran. And I don't know, there was just something so incredibly powerful about getting these real-time reports from students, college students that were going through this.
They spot. How did it start?
Yeah, well, my, my dad, both my parents were born in Brooklyn. I was actually born in Brooklyn. My dad was a huge Brooklyn Dodgers fan. Uh, so for me, it was sort of my way of connecting with my father.
You know, what's with this ritual? Is it real? I hear like the OCD, you have to eat the same things at certain innings and you have to touch certain things for you to get to the home plate.
Yeah. I mean, I think not only is it real, but I think that any sports fan that's die hard sports fan that might have season tickets somewhere, or may have their spot in their house where they watch a game, have certain things, certain rituals that they do. I, I have certain points of the game when I eat. Uh, seventh inning, I always eat something sweet.
Uh, we have to, we have to just test your baseball knowledge real quick. We have five questions. Five movie quotes. You have to tell us which baseball film they're from. Okay. We're going to start off easy. All right. If you build it, he will come.
Field of Dreams.
Told you I was starting off easy. Look how confident she is. It's, it's gonna get hard though. All right, number two. There's no crying in baseball.
Um, that's the movie with Tom Hanks. A League of Their Own.
Two for two. It's gonna get a little harder now.
I'm ready.
I could have been better. I could have broke every record in the book, and then when I walked down the street, people would have looked and they would have said, There goes Roy Hobbs, the best there ever was in the game.
That your?
Three for three. I'm impressed now. I thought we were gonna stump you on that one. Uh-huh. All right, number four. A good friend of mine used to say, this is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes it rains. Think about that for a while.
Oh, that's a good one. Mm. I don't know that one but I love that quote.
Give you a hint. Robin Hood.
Oh, um, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's on the tip of your tongue, go ahead.
Yeah, it's Susan Sarandon. Yes. Bull Durham.
Woo! All right, that's four for four. I love that quote though. That's a good one. All right. Now, this one's tough. Okay. This is the one that stumped me so maybe you'll get it. Okay. When the bat meets the ball, you can feel that ball just give and you know it's gonna go a long, long way. Damn if you don't feel like you're gonna live forever.
Starts with a number?
Starts with a number?
I don't know, just tell me.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, Eight Men Out.
Eight Men Out.
We gotta talk about your clothing line now. It's, it's very, very cool idea. And we have, we have some of them. You can check.
Yeah, look at the beautiful Cody here. Look how beautiful it looks on you. Our wonderful model. I don't think this one's gonna be tough at all. Dodgers of course.
Yeah, I brought the Dodgers gear. You gotta have. So yeah, it's just, you know, it's all stuff that you don't necessarily have to just wear at the stadium but it's all quality fabrics and cute and feminine styles and
And why Touch? Why'd you call it Touch?
Um, well, because it was very important to me, well, for a number of different reasons. One of which is, uh, one of the things that I love about being an actress is that, uh, you make a connection with the people that watch you, that might not necessarily, uh, you might not know but they know you and you are able to touch people's lives. So Touch in that sense. But also I wanted to do uh, a line that had special little touches.
I was gonna notice that the detail even the zipper, it's like
Yeah, and all of our all of our hoodies have double zippers so when you're sitting in the stands, It's like it doesn't just look good but it's actually practical.
Yeah. You can it can feel it. It's so cozy.
Yeah.
There you go. Baseball, technology. And she's not romantically challenged. Alyssa Milano.
