The world is in a collective state of self-isolation as we try to protect ourselves and our loved ones from coronavirus, and it’s easy to feel helpless—especially knowing that vulnerable members of society are most at risk.
I called Ryan Reynolds to get some tips on how to stay positive and survive a problem that the entire humankind is currently facing.
Bea: Hi Ryan. Thank you so much for doing this with me.
Ryan: Who is this?
Bea: We emailed back-and-forth this morning about doing a phone interview…
Ryan: Oh yeah, right. Hi.
Bea: You said you wanted to give people tips on how to survive the self-isolation, because no matter our race, religion or political beliefs, we are all in this together.
Ryan: Of course. Sorry. My brain is a little foggy right now because our chef left and we haven’t eaten in three days.
Bea: Oh my lord. Is there no food in your house?
Ryan: Sure there is. Lots. But as I just said, the chef left.
Bea: Oh… I don’t think many people can relate. How about if we talk about ‘how to better manage working from home when your kids and your spouse are around all the time.’
Ryan: Oh yeah, I keep reading tweets of people complaining about spending too much time with their spouse but honestly, I cannot relate. I didn’t know Blake was in the house until I noticed the toilet seats were down.
Bea: [Silence]
Ryan: It’s a big house. And we have a lot of toilets.
Bea: Yeah. That’s not very relatable either.
Ryan: Uhm… well, I can talk about the kids. Blake and I have two little girls and a baby.
Bea: Yes! Let’s talk about the kids and how hard it is to keep them entertained all day.
Ryan: My little girls and I have been watching a lot of Game of Thrones. They keep trying to run to their rooms and do something else, but in this house, we do what I say.
Bea: How about you just advise people to stay active?
Ryan: Oh yeah. Staying active is important. I went for a walk outside for 20 min yesterday and no non-celebrity people approached me. It was heaven.
Bea: [Hangs up.]
Ryan: Hello? Liz?
