They have amazing pies.

Careful around your eyes.

There is there.

Be careful around your eyes.

Hey, what's going on?

Everybody.

For first to the feast, I'm Sean Evans and you're watching hot ones.

It's the show without questions and even hotter wings.

And today we're joined by Zac Efron.

He's an actor, you know, from films like The Greatest Showman Neighbors.

Ted Bundy.

Extremely wicked.

He also has a YouTube channel with a casual 1,000,000 plus subs as well as a brand new series on the way It's called Killing Zac Effron.

It's set to hit Quimby this spring.

Zac Effron Welcome to the show.

Thanks for having me, man.

That was awesome.

Good intro.

I know that you're an adventurous eater.

How are you around Spicy food.

Something happened when I was traveling internationally.

I just I thought I could eat spicy food.

I thought I was healthy.

Food healthy, spicy.

If you need a good one.

Even.

But I went somewhere to couple countries that really put a lot of spice into their food and learn to respect it.

Yeah, I almost died and then light came back and I have a healthy respect for for sauce.

You going already?

Just diving right in.

It was delicious.

So I'm watching your new quickly show killing Zac Efron.

It's clear that you have an affinity for extreme situations like going deep into these dangerous jungle toe hunt crocodiles is.

Part of the appeal of shooting in these remote locations is that they're thousands of miles away from Hollywood.

Like, Are you kind of interested in the fact that you're kind of, Ah, escaping the Hollywood machine even though you're obviously bringing cameras along for the journey?

That's really it's interesting that you put it that way.

Yes, um, skate, like part of your call it escaping.

I think it definitely is escaping.

But going on trips like on the weekend going into the woods, backpacking, camping, rock climbing.

These things were like very ingrained in who I am as a person.

So that's my therapy.

I do that to get away and sort of have some sort of equilibrium helps me thinking process.

I have no trouble sleeping when I'm camping like I can go out there and reset for a weekend and I'll come back and I'll help the struggle.

City sleeping, you know, another way, But, um, it's fun to get out there.

It's fun to bring friends, so, yeah, get outside.

That's a prescription.

What should we add?

Some.

How should we do people do that?

Are these all see older?

There's not an aesthetic thing.

Well, it's happened once before Shiloh Buff came in here and he actually died.

It so played that.

However you want it.

Let's go.

All right.

How do you tell That was How do you tell, um, how hard it's gonna be by eating it.

Okay.

Wow.

It's gonna be messy.

Well, at least if I'm trying, I'm trying out the pouring method.

It's on the early side of this.

That's smart.

Mmm.

Son, your YouTube channel.

You have this show, Jim time, where you work out with everyone from NFL stars.

The Victoria's Secret models haven't stepped into the world of so many different fitness obsessives.

Is there kind of training that you respect the most on a shared grip level?

That's a good question.

Um, for me, athletes air like movie stars, I would say, you know, it's when I get to meet were hanging out with somebody who is an inspiration to me through whatever their art or craft is, that's really fun.

And if they want to train with me unreal.

I'm getting this, uh, peek behind the curtain and sort of, uh, just have fun with them and see them in their element because that's all they do.

Is they train that's moving or savage?

I'm always amazed by certain actors abilities to transform their bodies based on the requirements of whatever character they're playing from.

Movie to movie.

Definitely.

What's the difference and how you and your trainer might approach plane like a Baywatch lifeguard versus plane like Ted Bundy?

Man.

Another great question that was actually a really important time to do Baywatch, because I realized that, like when I was done with that movie, I don't ever want to be in that good of shape again.

Really.

It's like it's I was.

So it was so hard.

You're working with almost no wiggle room, right?

You've got things like water under your skin that you're worrying about, like making your six pack into a four pack shit like that.

That's just like, not it's just stupid, you know, it's not.

It's just not really like, I am happy that that it worked.

I'm happy that it got me through it.

I may do it again if it was something worthwhile.

But we'll wait until it gets to that I don't need.

I'm good.

Take care of your heart.

Take care of your brain.

You're good.

Sure.

Let me hit that.

He's like, you know, I don't want to know.

How many of these shows have you done?

This is, believe it or not.

Season 11 approaching 200 episodes set across from 200 famous people doing this.

That's awesome, man.

That's so cool.

That's I feel like I knew it was gonna be a high number, but 200 just, Of course.

I don't want to pour out the extra sauce.

No, but you know what I like.

I like the new experience.

You know, that's what I think is funny about this is that in the hundreds of times that we've done it, there have been so many different ways that it's approached.

Cool.

You know, it is a good This whole setup is just money.

Man like this is why you go out to eat wings, be with your homies, man.

So I'm fascinated by your signed baseball collection, which isn't just something that you spent millions of dollars on.

It's something that dates back to you being a little kid, chasing down home run balls at Giants games.

That's exactly right.

Do you have a favorite story?

Are Ah, baseball?

That to you is like a crown jewel in the collection?

Dusty Baker, the coach of the Giants at the time.

He drove by and he was on a motorcycle, so we don't have a window.

He could roll up.

So he saw, like there was a couple people waiting for him, and I ran up with a baseball.

I was researching on this, you know, I had, like, a blue pen and the sweet spot of a brand new ball, and I showed it to him.

Dusty was like, I can't right now.

I got to go to church, and that just means usually, like I don't have time right.

He's like, I'll be back in 30 minutes.

He left and I thought I was never gonna see him again.

45 minutes later, the motorcycle came roaring in.

I was like, No way, and he literally pointed right at me and come over here and I walked over.

He's like, you still got that bomb was like, Yeah, thank you, sir, but nobody signed it, so that one meant a lot to me.

Dusty Baker, like, doubled back from church.

Who knows what he did, but it was pretty awesome.

It was really cool.

And I was like, I'd like bleached hair.

Was a little kid just awesome.

While filming Charlie ST Cloud.

Did you pick up anything interesting when you were working alongside Atlanta Braves pitching coach Roger McDowell?

Oh my gosh, man.

Blast from the past, we had to play catch, but I could play catch.

At that point, I played baseball, which is good because sometimes the movies you never know, like sometimes you're one, which is why he was there.

Because there's a couple of those like, What's the one I'm thinking of?

War of the Worlds moments looked like I don't know if I should say I like mustard.

I like mustard a lot.

So she mentioned, you're a seasoned traveler crisscrossing across the globe for your own adventures.

And then, of course, even your movie roles.

If you could spend one month surfing anywhere, where would you go?

Um hmm.

Probably Costa Rica.

I think Bali's pretty rad Bali's awesome right now.

Like, um, I think I just have so many friends in Costa Rica that that would be This is really just got hot.

Do you have a favorite golf course in Hawaii?

There's just insane golf.

Last time with coffee, and I went with, uh, I should not touch my eyes.

Right.

That's deaf.

Anyone done that?

I would say in about 45% of the episodes.

Really?

Well, it's hard.

No way, man.

Cheese.

I'm so happy.

I just touched my nose because I could feel it.

Yeah, but the eyes, because the water So you'll think to yourself.

Oh, I just I just gotta wait my eye.

But then you have sauce of the cross pollination there.

Late.

You're late.

Your eyeballs on fire.

Oh, men, I'm ready for the next one.

I'm ready for the next one.

I say it's Costa Rica.

And what's in?

What was the next one of favorite golf course?

Uh, I don't know.

There's one in Valencia used to sneak onto the links.

That's my favorite one.

All right.

Great memories.

Let's go on to low.

Scaly entails Rojo here.

Oh, those Callie.

And he's really cool.

First we feast.

Cool name.

So, Zach, we have a recurring segment on our show.

Call.

Explain that, Graham.

We do a deep dive on our guests.

Instagram pull interesting pictures that need more context.

So we'll put it up here on the monitor, and then you just tell us the bigger story.

Okay, Senator, for mine is Yeah, they're not from mine.

Like for example, man, that's all.

My dear, you are Jim Carrey's Pinching your nipple.

It seems like an image that requires Maur explanation.

I went to Hawaii.

I was I was staying with my friend Kenny Ortega.

He directed High school Musical.

This is a couple years after and, um, he said you wanted I'm friends with Jim Carrey.

You want to go to his house?

So we walked on the beach and there was this really cool bush sort of up against the beach.

It was like along the beach.

It was like a berm when we walked like into it and it formed a tunnel.

I've never really been in a plant tunnel before, but it was the path from the beach we walked through it.

C candy like, Hey, remember, looked at the second story.

And unlike the second story of the building, Jim Carey was there just standing on the balcony, and he was like, Uh, it was really like It's been turn a pet detective and that's one of my favorite.

So it's pretty cool.

He's a very nice guy and one of my friggin here itself.

That's it.

That's the explanation behind that photo.

I don't know why I spend my nipple.

This is your ex big bite Martin Garics big by a friend of the program we call Big Bite.

Martin cares what really and that is this average with the bytes.

He's a savage with the bites.

I met him totally on accident that night.

Way I was walking down the street and Amsterdam, and I see of all things in Amsterdam a crowd of like video cameras, what looked like to me to be like T M Z or foot photographer type people, my lips.

And then and then suddenly someone's tapping me on the shoulder, and it's the person tapping and was like, Hey, man, what's up?

I was looking.

It was Martin and He's like, I'm from here.

Do you?

It's my birthday, like tomorrow.

What do you want to come to a concert?

I was like, Yeah, sure.

So I quit.

What I was doing went to hang out with Martin.

He be, like, organized a set list, and I was just chilling washing them.

And then next thing I know, I was up on stage and like that little booth, he's out with the deejay booth.
