Melissa O'Neil walked into her audition for The Rookie with an unconventional warm-up strategy. Before starting the scene, she... squatted. As in, she dropped down and did squats. Right there in the audition room. Nathan has been impressed ever since.

In this delightful episode, Melissa and Nathan dive into Canadian accents, the timeless art of fart noises, the technicalities of acting, and the joy of working together for eight seasons of The Rookie.
