This is Justin Richmond from Broken Record. Are you the kind of person who sets standards for themselves? Like personally I told myself if the Lakers lose their do or die game five, I wouldn't let it impact my mood at home with family the standard Lexus has set for themselves is to experience amazing. Lexus measures success by the feelings and emotions evoked in a driver, like exhilaration and joy. Amazing can only be achieved by knowing people on a deeper level. The standard of amazing results in machines that make you feel more human because a car that doesn't make you feel something is a car that stops short of amazing experience.

Oliver Hudson
The things I love most about what I do is that I'm always going to new places and experiencing new things whether it is close to home or far from home. And this month I'm actually headed to Napa, California. I'm doing my first festival gig. I am super excited and what was the first thing I did is I went on Airbnb to look at what homes were available in case I wanted to bring the entire family up and we could all be under one roof. So if you're on the road like me and you're always looking for a place to bring your family, Airbnb is.

Justine Lupe
We.
Oliver Hudson
For some reason, it turned into, like, a family meeting. And I'll never forget, at one point, Paul was like, you couldn't rob a bank. You know, you couldn't rob a bank. Your sister, she could rob a bank. I was like, really out of this. I am. Oh, God. I think that was the same time that. That he said, who you gonna call? Ollie.
Kate Hudson
Well, that was that one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got so much. I. I was in trouble all the time, too, by the way. And he's screaming at me, and he's losing it. Hey, when you're older. And then. No, we're not here to protect you. And who you gonna call, huh? Who you gonna call? And it was quiet, and I just go Ghostbusters. And it diffused the whole thing.
Justine Lupe
Wyatt has talked to me about Kurt, and it sounds like a very similar disposition. Like, the same kind of like, lover, like the biggest. Like, Dovey Bear, but also, like, just like when we got in trouble, we got in trouble.
Kate Hudson
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson
You're a tough dad. He's a. He's a tough guy.
Justine Lupe
He's like.
Kate Hudson
He's in all the right ways. Meaning, like, it was a little thing, the big things, you know, he gets it. You know, I. I shot out car windows with a BB gun by accident. My cousin's car. And. And, you know, it was nighttime, and I thought I was hitting the bottle that I set up, but it was actually going through the hedge and breaking every window in his beloved RX7. And he runs. He's going to. And he comes back into the house. He goes, oh, my God, like, someone stole my radio. And, like, he goes into this whole thing about how someone robbed his car. Of course his radio was there, but I shot out all of his windows. Mom was furious, and Pa Crow was like, yeah, yeah, it's bad. But you know what you did wrong? Why am I. There's no reason to get angry.
Justine Lupe
You.
Kate Hudson
You get it. You're not stupid.
Colin Hudson
Yeah, he would have been best, but he. He was in a similar way. He had, like, a bigger perspective. It was like, you're not gonna go down, like, a dark path by shooting out a, you know, BB window or whatever.
Kate Hudson
Yeah. Do you still have that rebellious nature?
Colin Hudson
No, I think, you know, I got. I continued to get in trouble after that. I'm not gonna lie a little bit. But then, like, I. You know, after college, you chilled. Yeah. I think there was a point in college, I got in trouble. And then it was like, okay, you know when you're 18 and you're, like, actually going to court and you're like. I mean, it's like, not a joke anymore. Not that it was a joke before, but it was like you could really see how things, like, go south. I don't know. It was like, either focus on. You know, I think when I got in college, that was kind of a.
Kate Hudson
Turning point of like, a wake up call of sorts.
Justine Lupe
Yeah.
Colin Hudson
I need to focus on movies.
Justine Lupe
I feel like it kind of had to happen because Colin was, like, as a child, as a kid, kid, he was like, the most sweet, the most, like, easy. Like, just like this, like, kind of like. Because I was like this, like, scene stealer kind of kid attention seeker. And Colin was just, like, very, like, easygoing and accommodating and, like, the good kid. And, like, I kind of needed, like, that. Like, it was like an exercise in, like, agency, you know?
Colin Hudson
Yeah.
Justine Lupe
Like. And then it went away, and now you're like, great. I mean.
Oliver Hudson
Or, you know, we just interviewed an ADHD expert. Maybe you just have ADHD and you're impulsive.
Colin Hudson
No, it was a. I don't know. I feel bad for my parents in a lot of ways. They did a great job.
Oliver Hudson
Justine, how did you handle it when he was doing all this stuff? Where did you, like, secretly enjoy his, like, him getting into trouble? Or were you. Did you feel like we were like, get your together? Yeah.
Justine Lupe
No, I don't think either. Weirdly, I was kind of neutral. I mean, some of this stuff happened.
Oliver Hudson
You're like, I was indifferent. I didn't care about him.
Justine Lupe
I felt like some of the, like, the high school stuff I was there for, it was, like, lightweight. Like. Like, I'm like, everybody drinks in high school. Like, everybody. Like, it wasn't like, he was in huge trouble, and it was more just like.
Colin Hudson
I just remember, throw a party when the parents are out.
Justine Lupe
Oh, my God, that was really bad. Through a party with my parents. We were on, like, a trip up to the mountains. And Colin, like, through a party, I.
Colin Hudson
Lost control of a party.
Kate Hudson
And it.
Colin Hudson
Was like I was the new kid. I had just transferred from our, like, art high school. And I was like, oh, parents are out of town. Everybody does this. And, like.
Justine Lupe
And then all the upperclassmen came and just, like.
Colin Hudson
And started inviting people. And I'd like. I was like, you can't go on that. Half of the house, they're, like, funny. And then one of my friends. It was the first time, like, any of us had really drank at all. And he. Yeah, you know, I'm like. He's, like, really drunk. I'm like, oh, my God.
Oliver Hudson
It's like. It's like an 80s movie.
Kate Hudson
Yeah.
Justine Lupe
I mean, honestly, I've always, like. I feel like we've always just had a really good relationship and really advocated for each other, even if we weren't, like, as close as we are now or as close as we are. When we were a little. Little, we always were, like, tight. So I think we were always rooting for each other. And I was more just like, I hope. I just remember being like, I hope he's okay, you know?
Oliver Hudson
And then. When did you get into Colin? When did you get into photography and, like, cinematography, film?
Colin Hudson
I think I, like, was drawn to it because I was. I was. When we started doing music videos and stuff with Justine and my friends and the Jackass videos, it was like. There was a point where I was like, I'm either going to go to see you with all my friends.
Kate Hudson
That's where I went.
Colin Hudson
Please have a great time, or I'm going to go, you know, seek out, like, filmmaking in California. And that was kind of the turning point of, like, I'm going to do this.
Kate Hudson
I went to see you to. To go to the film club school, like, Stan Brackage. And I was like, who's this dude, like, putting Moss on film? Like, Is this cool? But anyway, I'll go to Boulder. And I went to Boulder, went to the film program, which, of course, I didn't do. I left after two years, you know, I mean, I would make my movies. Like that day, you know, I remember there was one project that had to get turned in on Super 8. And I was like, what the fuck am I gonna do? I just walked around filming things, didn't know what. And then I was like, oh, I got an idea and just felt a stop sign for, like, a long time. Went to the editing room, I cut up a billion different images of just, like, fat, like, pacing up to froze. And then just a stop sign. And I'm like. And then I'm like, it's life, man. Like, sometimes you just gotta fucking stop, bro.
Oliver Hudson
It's the best film you ever made.
Kate Hudson
Sometimes you just gotta fucking stop, man. And then I left. I gotta get out of here.
Oliver Hudson
You're like. And scene. Oh, God.
Justine Lupe
Like a filmmaker. And then. Because you're an actor, too, did you.
Oliver Hudson
I mean.
Kate Hudson
That'S how I make my living. I'm very famous.
Oliver Hudson
He's an amazing actor, but he is an even, like, more amazing writer.
Justine Lupe
Oh, wow.
Oliver Hudson
Oliver's an incredible writer.
Kate Hudson
Well, we just. We just did the ADHD guy. I told you. I am. And I've said this before, I'm for sure the most, like, innately just. Just rawly talented person in our family. There's no doubt about that. Like, it's just about accessing it and believing in myself and not being. Get frustrated and not being overwhelmed or frustrated. But I'm. You know, I might die being the most talented without it. Having. Being recognized, without expressing it.
Oliver Hudson
Someone will find your little video and it will be very.
Kate Hudson
Yeah, exactly. That's the one that they're gonna show in In Memoriam.
Justine Lupe
Sign video.
Kate Hudson
Exactly. The stop sign video.
Oliver Hudson
Justine, what was your. For me, my first knowing you as an actress was succession. And I. I remember watching because I had met you, and then I was like, oh, my God, it's Maris friend. And was that really like, your first, like, big part, or was there something before that?
Justine Lupe
That there was another part that was pretty big, but it was on a. A network that nobody saw. It was, like, for this show by David E. Kelly, based off of a Stephen king novel called Mr. Mercedes. And Brendan Gleason was in it, if you know.
Oliver Hudson
Oh, cool. Of course.
Justine Lupe
Amazing. And he. It was just like. Honestly, I was like. I played his, like, right hand man, and it was a really great experience, but nobody ever saw it. It was on this thing called the Audience Network that was, like, around for, like, two years and then kind of, like, evaporated. So, like, nobody ever saw it. But it was amazing because I just got to, like, be with this guy who's so incredible. He was such an incredible actor and such a great teacher, and I didn't have to have the pressure of people watching it in any way. And I did three seasons of that and that. It was called Mr. Mercedes. And, yeah, it's, like, based off of a Stephen King book about, like, this detective and this girl Holly, who. Stephen King is still, like, writing all of his books currently about her. She's, like, a girl who's on the spectrum, who's, like, like, incredibly smart and was kind of like his, like, right hand.
Kate Hudson
Who was the actor you worked with?
Justine Lupe
It was Brendan Gleason.
Kate Hudson
Oh, cool.
Justine Lupe
Yeah, it was a past. Like, Mary Louise Parker was on it for a little while. Like, it was. It was great. It was just. Yeah, nobody saw it.
Oliver Hudson
Where is it now? Where does it sit?
Justine Lupe
It's on Peacock, I think. Yeah, now it's on Peacock, and I think it might have moved to Amazon. It's like, you know, all these things, they just, like, get like, bought, passed.
Oliver Hudson
Around, and you're like, I don't know, circulate. You're like, now it's on Netflix. So then Succession.
Hulu Representative
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson
And after Succession, did you feel like you got recognized? Like. Like, I would just assume that because people love that show, that you were. That was the first time you really.
Justine Lupe
Felt like people would be like, oh, yeah, people. There was a lot of love for that show. And I think that it's funny because, like, I feel like with even nobody wants us, you know, it's like, got a big viewership, but, like, people don't, like, stop you in the same way. Like, on Succession, I think that it was such a. Like, it had such a clout. Clout. And there was, like, such. There was, like. Even la. People would be, like, kind of, like, geeky about it. So it was. It was fun. And I. I got, like, a nice. I was, like, in a nice place where I wasn't, like, the lead of it. And so I got, like, a sweet dose of, like, whatever Nick Braun or like, Sarah Snook was getting. And it wasn't, like, anything where I was like, oh, the is annoying or too much or any of that. It was just kind of, like a sweet kind of recognition.
Kate Hudson
It's a fucking amazing show. It's one of my favorite.
Justine Lupe
I felt like I was in it and not in it enough that I could like, be biased about being a fan as well. Like, I was like, separated enough from it that I was like, oh, this is an amazing show. And I can objectively, like, watch it as someone who's.
Kate Hudson
Well, what was the working experience like on Succession with like, Armstrong and then all the actors and, you know, of course you got Jeremy who's like a, you know, method guy. I'm in Kieran. I mean, was it. Was it light? Was it fun? Was it intense?
Justine Lupe
No, I feel like. I feel like. I mean, first of all, Jesse Armstrong is like kind of like a dream person because he's just like this genius, but he's like this sweet, sweet genius who's like, not at all like, he just sets the tone of like, this is like a nice set. Like, this is place. And then Snook and Kieran and like, you know, the main cast, they're all like. They none of them were like their characters at all. They're very like, light and like, you know, is like the kind of girls, like in a cap and like, tie dye sweatpants when she's not like, she's like. And Matthew was like, sweet and dreamy and I think the only one who was like super serious throughout the whole thing was like, you know, admittedly and notoriously, Jeremy. Yeah, Zone. But, you know, it didn't like, affect the vibe for me. Yeah.

Oliver Hudson
Matthew McFadden As Darcy was like was like defining for me. I I like I remember watching Pride and Prejudice. That particular one, I was like this man is so. I I was just, I mes. I was mesmerized by him. And then to see him get older and the work that he's done, like, he might be one of my favorite actors.
Justine Lupe
He's incredible. He. We would go to table reads and it would be like he would just turn out some stuff. We'd get the night, like, the script, the night before, he'd come in, he'd do a table read, and I'd be like, you're channeling, like you're touched by something. Because it was. He's just unreal. And yes, he was, like, the most, like, strapping, like, hot, like, sexy, like, brooding guy and Pride and Prejudice and this. He's like, so not that guy. He's just, he's, he's a chameleon.
Oliver Hudson
He's, he really is. He's so phenomenal. I love, I, I, People who have that ability are so inspiring to me, you know, like, watching his work. He's so great.
Justine Lupe
I'm excited.
Kate Hudson
I came in, I came in late. It was you talking about me.
Oliver Hudson
I, I, I wonder, like, on that show, that must have felt like that and like, some of those scenes, because you got to sort of, like, be quiet and observant, like a of your characters observing the world and not, you know, that, that you actually got to really watch, you know, them at, like, work.
Justine Lupe
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson
You know, I, I would think. And I, you know, I, it's always my favorite thing about what we do. When you can actually have opportunity. It's one thing when you have to be, like, actively with them the whole time. It's another thing when you actually get to watch the things happen. Like, I felt that way in Glass Onion. I, like, I remember this time that, you know, everybody had these moments, and I just got to watch all these amazing actors to, like, go there and, and, and have their, like, shining moments. And you're just like, God, I mean, we're so lucky. This is such, it's so fun.
Justine Lupe
Like, it was, like, the ultimate treat being on that show. Because that, like you said, a lot of my part was like, I'm like a fly on the wall. And, and I got to watch, like, some insane scenes. Like, there was one scene on the yacht in Croatia where we're, like, all around, like, a table, and they're deciding. God, it's like, so, it's so long ago. But they were making this, like, huge decision in season two, the end of season two. It was like the last episode, and it was like, everybody around this table. And I think I had, like, three lines where I'm like, just, like, interjecting, and then the rest of me just watching these, like, huge takes. Same with the funeral. I, like, got, like, watch this, like, epic take, and I just, I, I had that experience of just being, like, the mountaintop, of watching people act with, like, the most incredible material. And it was it was. I was never like. It never. It never got lost on me. Like, it never. I never got, like, jaded or used to being around that level.
Oliver Hudson
Yeah. So exciting.
Kate Hudson
Yeah. Material. Material is. You know, it's when you get that good stuff. That's why. That's why I haven't broke out. Just so everyone knows it's just material stuff.
Oliver Hudson
Colin, when. When you.
Justine Lupe
What.
Oliver Hudson
What kind of cinematography do you do? Like, where do you travel and, like, what's your.
Colin Hudson
A lot of sports documentary. Travel sometimes. Not much lately. A lot of local.
Kate Hudson
What's the sports stuff with?
Colin Hudson
We did the Fight for Glory documentary about the World Series. I don't know if you're a baseball fan. That just came. You shot that cam up?
Kate Hudson
Yeah. Sweet.
Colin Hudson
Yeah.
Justine Lupe
You guys should watch it. It's on Apple. Is it apple?
Colin Hudson
Yeah.
Justine Lupe
Apple, yeah. It's so good.
Colin Hudson
Yeah.
Justine Lupe
Into the Lake.
Oliver Hudson
I mean, the Dodgers, I want to see that.
Colin Hudson
Pretty uneventful World Series. I think they did a pretty good job making it. The stakes, you know?
Kate Hudson
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, when you're in the documentary filmmaking world, you know, you have to almost hope, especially in the sports world, it's like praying for those moments. I mean, even talking about the masters when Rory was up four at the turn at 10, you're like, okay. I'm like, fuck. I wanted this DeChambeau Rory showdown. Everyone wanted it. He doubles one, you're just kind of like, oh, no, is this where it's going? And then it just flipped.
Colin Hudson
Wish I watched a qualifying with the bastard. I'm, like, sitting here nodding, like, how can I?
Oliver Hudson
He's like, yeah. You're like, what does this have to do with cinematography? I always think documentary filmmaking, especially the cinematography is. Is the hardest because it's like how to make sort of stationary interviews interesting. Like, what you're. It changes the. The way the documentary looks. Like to me, that's the most important part of the documentary, you know, other than, like, footage that's old footage and put direct and cutting it together.
Kate Hudson
Yeah. It kind of depends, too, on what doc you're making. I mean, if you're doing, like, Love is Blind, you know, that's one thing.
Justine Lupe
But, like, documentary. A documentary called Love is Blind.
Kate Hudson
Who doesn't love. Love is Blind?
Oliver Hudson
Come on.
Colin Hudson
You show up to a place and, like. And you don't know what it's going to look like a lot of times. And you'll have, like. You know, sometimes you'll get a sweet spot of, like, amazing shot and something amazing happens on camera. But most Time you get amazing shot and they never use it because.
Kate Hudson
Right.
Colin Hudson
So it's a lot of, you know, a lot of that where you're like, dang, I wish that was in the.
Kate Hudson
What's the dream, Colin? Like, what's. What's the pinnacle for you?
Colin Hudson
You know, I would love to, you know, move more into narrative stuff, cinematography, directing, things like that. But, yeah, that's probably the pinnacle. Win an Oscar for being, you know.
Oliver Hudson
There you go.
Kate Hudson
Well, your sister doesn't seem to be hooking you up, and I know that feeling. So.
Oliver Hudson
Now, Justine, nobody wants this. Everybody loves the show. It is so much fun. I'm biased, even though I don't have to be biased, because it's great because Aaron and Sarah, you know, created an ep. Did you even, like, feel like you were playing Sarah, or did you.
Justine Lupe
Okay, but it's like. I don't know. I mean, it's not exactly Sarah. Obviously, like, Morgan is, like, much more, like, sloppy. I would say less, like, postured and, like, clean. But I also did, like, definitely, like, the way that I, like, get into how Morgan talks is by, like, listening to their podcast. When I was testing for the pilot, I like, went to her Instagram and, like, scavenge, like, what is her, like, look? Like, what is her look? And, like, dressed like her. And I definitely, like. Yeah, I definitely drew from Sarah.
Kate Hudson
I haven't seen it yet, but I. I have to. I have to watch it. Just watch it.
Justine Lupe
Like, you'll watch it in no time.
Oliver Hudson
It's like, it goes so fast, and it's a binger.
Justine Lupe
Yeah, it's, like, really light and fun and, like. And easy. It's an easy watch.
Colin Hudson
Honestly, it's great because it's like, all this time, Justine's been playing these. Like, either when she was younger, she was, like, the, you know, bimbo blonde kind of thing, or, like, you know, succession. This is the first time, I think it's a role where she's actually leaning into her comedy, which, as someone who knows her very well, because I'm her brother, and, like, I. I'm very happy that, like, finally someone is seeing it and letting her, like, kind of.
Justine Lupe
Thanks.
Colin Hudson
No, they're like. Honestly, I don't. I don't know why, but it took a very long time for anybody to notice or let you do it.
Oliver Hudson
Well, it's hard to be funny. Although I have to say, I thought you. I. I thought I felt the funny in succession. As far as I'm concerned, you're. You're. You know, it's like, you know, we say, like, you get to be observant. You only have three lines. But what you did in that show was awesome. You were. You were amazing and. And hilarious.
Justine Lupe
Thank you.
Oliver Hudson
And your guys's dynamic as a couple was just the best.
Justine Lupe
I love Alan. He's the best.
Oliver Hudson
He's so great.
Justine Lupe
He's so good. It's. It's nuts how good he is. He's like. There's stuff that I would read on the page and be like, well, good luck selling that. And then you'd be like, what the. Like, he acts like it's just, like, came. It just comes out of him. Like, it was like living inside of him for, like, years. You know, he's just talented. But thank you. I mean, and thank you. I feel like it's more goofy. I feel like this. I feel like this part is. There's a little more goof. There's a little more goof than I've gotten. Maybe that's what. Yeah, yeah.
Oliver Hudson
It's more. You can be. You're more physical, and it's like. Yeah, yeah. And. And. And funny is hard. Like, I. I think there's sort of this thing that, though, you know, to be funny is easy and light, but it's actually, like, to have the timing, to be able to do the things that you're doing is really challenging. You know, you have to have a certain kind of brain to figure that out. You know, you definitely got that.
Justine Lupe
I've got to just say this, like, you are just, like, literally one of my favorites. Like, you have this kind of effervescent glow that is just, like, unmatchable. And you're so funny, and it's like, it's. You really do prove that, like, beautiful, beautiful women can be, like, ridiculously funny. Like, I just think about how to lose a guy in 10 days, which I'm sure, like, people. It's insane. Or. What was the other one you were just talking about?
Colin Hudson
Yeah, I go to.
Kate Hudson
Thanks.
Justine Lupe
So you just ride this line of, like, charm and goof, and, like, it's just. It's like you're singular in that way.
Oliver Hudson
Oh, thanks, babe. Love fast.
Justine Lupe
Like, I had to go on, like, a Kate rant because it would be.
Oliver Hudson
Made me feel. Makes me feel good. So season two, any spoilers? Are you allowed to say anything?
Justine Lupe
I don't think so. I mean, no, I don't think so. I think it's. I mean, it's gonna be fun. I think it's more. I mean, it feels like there's, you know, it's a different. It's a different. It's different a little bit because there's only so long you can sustain the like heat of the will they, won't they.
Kate Hudson
Yeah.
Justine Lupe
Thing. And they're doing it. I think they're doing a really great job of that. And I hope, I hope it is great. I hope it's good with this. That many eyes on it. It's just like, God, hope it's good.
Kate Hudson
You know, I know you highlighting lines before you came on this podcast. I saw a highlighter in your hand.
Colin Hudson
That has your bank info.
Justine Lupe
I know it's right, right here.
Kate Hudson
It's like, there it is. I knew it.
Justine Lupe
Oh, I'm a nerd. My brain is so slow right now that I really do have to like spend more time. I mean, I've always like worked on stuff, but this time I'm like really having to work on things because my brain just feels like mush.

Oliver Hudson
Are you still breastfeeding?
Justine Lupe
I just weaned, like literally. And so I think that's part of it too is they say that like the weaning hormones are like a thing.
Oliver Hudson
So it is a thing. How's she doing with it? Fine.
Justine Lupe
Yeah. She was like kind of part of the reason we started weaning was like I was going to work and she was eating off the bottle so much because I'm at work that I think she just became more excited about the bottle, which was like kind of devastating but also so nice to like get rid of all the things around. I love breastfeeding, but I hate pumping.
Oliver Hudson
So much the worst. All of my kids, I mean, I've.
Kate Hudson
Heard that eight months for years.
Oliver Hudson
By eight months they were, they were over it. I kind of. Yeah, they were just sort of like with a process of breastfeeding into food, into bottle and breastfeed and then nighttime feed and then it just, they just sort of like, by eight months are kind of, like, over it.
Justine Lupe
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson
Yeah.
Kate Hudson
Colin, how. How are. Just checking in. Colin, how are your breasts? Okay. They're good. And how are your hormones?

Oliver Hudson
Are your parents in L. A Now? Are they still in Denver?
Justine Lupe
My. They're both in Denver. My dad's actually, like, literally packing up the house slowly. Like, literally. He's, like, packed up his whole house with no plan.
T Mobile Representative
But I'm moving.
Justine Lupe
It's like, okay, we don't know where or what.
Oliver Hudson
Like, I really.
Justine Lupe
I think here. But he's just like. It's so funny. He's so funny. He's, like, literally excavated. The whole. The whole house is packed up, but he doesn't have a place.
Colin Hudson
Repainted it. He just hates the car cold.
Oliver Hudson
And they're. So. They're no longer together?
Justine Lupe
No. How long since, like, probably like 15 years now. Since our early 20s. My early 20s.
Colin Hudson
Probably. 08 or.
Kate Hudson
That's interesting. And. And we're coming to the end here, but now it's like, how is that in your 20s when your parents split? I mean, that's. It's like you're kind of. You're adults, you know, Like, I don't.
Colin Hudson
Know how uncommon that, like, I was going to college. Like, it was probably my first or second year of college. And I think, you know, we were kind of the reason they stayed together. A lot of it. I don't know. This is like a heavy. But I think a lot of people, like, they were such good parents.
Justine Lupe
Yeah.
Colin Hudson
Like, amazing parents all the way across the board. And I think so good that they focused on us maybe more than themselves. And, like.
Kate Hudson
Interesting.
Colin Hudson
I think maybe.
Justine Lupe
I think my mom had.
Colin Hudson
Yeah.
Justine Lupe
And it created, like, a. It was, like, tough on her. Yeah.
Kate Hudson
Right.
Colin Hudson
Yeah. It was like, now they couldn't, you know, deflect the. Maybe.
Kate Hudson
Yeah. While that's just real, I would assume, you know, where you have just so much distraction and you're raising kids and everyone's gone. It's like, okay, it's just us.
Colin Hudson
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson
Yeah.
Colin Hudson
You know, active parents there for us all the time. So it was like.
Oliver Hudson
Yeah, that's so great. It's like the real sacrifice of, like, all right, you know, we're going to raise great kids, and then we'll. And then we'll figure this out.
Justine Lupe
Yeah. I do think, though, that it's like, a good lesson in terms of, like, even with us, I'm like, okay, so now we know that we have to, like, priority prioritize our relationship a billion percent parents like, that, that, like, will only help and that you want to, like, keep that bond really intact through the whole thing.
Kate Hudson
I think it's crazy important. And, you know, Aaron and I did that. We've been together for 25 years now, but, you know, through kids, we never. We loved our kids. We were never precious about them in the sense that we needed to put ourselves, you know, not first, but almost pretty close. You know, if you're looking at it like a pyramid, you know, the top of the pyramid is you as an individual, and then it's almost a couple, and then the kids, because that trickle down is real.
Justine Lupe
Thing is, I can't imagine it hurts to, like, have your kids, like, seeing your parents, like, you know, be affectionate with each other and see them making time for themselves and, like, going, my parents, like, never took a vacation, never had a baby. We didn't have a babysitter. We didn't have a nanny. Like, it's. It was. They never took time.
Kate Hudson
Oh, yeah, we would go on vacations. We, Aaron and I would go here, go there, go to hotel rooms. And. And it was. They'd get you. They got used to it. It was like, oh, okay. They'd come back and they still love us, so we're not. It's not crazy when they leave.
Justine Lupe
Yeah. Yeah.
Colin Hudson
I think they moved away from a lot of their very close friends when they came to Colorado from New York.
Justine Lupe
So it was a family unit for sure.
Kate Hudson
And you guys left and they're like.
Oliver Hudson
Well, now Dad's gonna be bringing a bunch. Dad's gonna be bringing all his, like, his suitcases to come in.
Colin Hudson
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson
I'm moving.
Colin Hudson
Yeah, he's coming.
Oliver Hudson
That's a long time to be in the cold if you don't like the cold.
Justine Lupe
Yeah. And he doesn't use the heat. So we call him on FaceTime. And he's literally in, like, parkas in the middle of.
Kate Hudson
That's really funny.
Justine Lupe
Just put on the heat.
Colin Hudson
This is like a scarf on in his living room. It's, like, really.
Kate Hudson
Funny.
Colin Hudson
Yeah, it's pretty wild.
Oliver Hudson
So we don't have a speed round, but we do. Do usually do this thing at the end of each podcast where we ask each sibling to tell the other sibling two things. There's. There's two parts to this question. One is, is what would you like to alleviate from your sibling that would make them, you feel like, would make their life just that much better. And then the other thing is. Is what is the thing that you would want to emulate that your sibling has that you wish you had a little bit more of?
Colin Hudson
Whoa. I wish I could have prepared for that one.
Justine Lupe
Okay. I wish I could relieve you of your imposter syndrome. Like, what kind of. What Ollie was saying earlier, Like, I just feel like Colin is incredibly talented and incredibly friendly and kind and, like, skilled and everybody loves him, but he has, I think, like, in a. A hard time, like, owning his worth in a space and knowing how valuable you are. And I think that the thing I would love to emulate is just how, like, easeful you are. Like, Colin's got, like. He doesn't get like. He does, like, it's. He's like the kind of person, like, I always have this, like, voice in my head. Like, I remember there was a time where we were running. Really. He was living in Orange County. We were like, running late to the airport, and I was like, freaking out. Like, I, Like, I'm like, neurotic and a little bit like this. And. And I was like, we are. We're late. We're late. And he was just like, jesse, me, it's gonna be fine. And that's like the way, like, the way he says that, like, Jesse, like, it's just. That's his whole thing is he's just like, chill and like, not like, alarmist. And I think that's probably why he got caught so many times vibe to him, where he's just easy and easeful and easy. Like, just like, it's so cool. And I've always wanted it. Ever since I was a kid. I really to wanted you cool. That's something else.
Kate Hudson
He's like jail schmail.
Colin Hudson
Okay, what do I. I think I would like to relieve you of, you know, a little neuroses or anxiety. This is just gonna be the opposite of what she says. You know, I think Justine worries a little bit about certain things where I think she could, you know, take a step back and just enjoy situations a little bit. I mean.
Justine Lupe
Yeah.
Colin Hudson
You know, you're an amazing person and you are confident, and that's wish. What I wish I could take away from you a little bit more is your ability to walk into a room and, you know, feel comfortable with yourself at any point. I envy that a lot.
Justine Lupe
Yay.
Kate Hudson
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson
And then can't wait for season two and can't wait to see the documentary yeah.
Justine Lupe
Yeah.
Oliver Hudson

Justine Lupe

Kate Hudson

Oliver Hudson
We have so much fun because we. It's. It's like. It's also such. I mean, we do different things, but. But it's just like, people kind of, you know, our audience knows certain. Certain people from their work or from, you know, where they get their fame, but you get a completely different point of view on them when their sibling is a part of it and, like, what the dynamic is and. And. And what their family life was like. And also, you realize, like, how similar everybody is, really. There's so much.
Kate Hudson
A lot of interconnectivity.
Oliver Hudson
Yeah.
Kate Hudson
Yeah.

This is Justin Richmond from Broken Record. Are you the kind of person who sets standards for themselves? Like personally, I told myself, if the Lakers lose or do or die Game five, I wouldn't let it impact my mood at home with family. The standard Lexus has set for themselves is to experience amazing. Lexus measures success by the feelings and emotions evoked in a driver, like exhilaration and joy. Amazing can only be achieved by knowing people on a deeper level. The standard of amazing results in machines that make you feel more human. Because a car that doesn't make you feel something is a car that stops short of amazing experience. Amazing at your Lexus dealer, you're listening.

Siblings' Early Experiences
