In celebration of the Trinity Collection's 100th
0:02
anniversary, this forecast
0:04
is supported by Cartier. From
0:10
the New York Times, I'm Anna Martin.
0:12
This is Modern Love, and our guest
0:15
today is Maya Haak. You
0:17
might know her as Robin Buckley,
0:19
a wise-cracking but open-hearted teen on
0:22
the paranormal TV series Stranger Things.
0:24
I should stop talking. I have said everything
0:27
I need to say, but then I guess
0:29
I get nervous, and the words, they just,
0:31
they keep spilling out, and it's like my-
0:33
Or as a fearless Joe March from the
0:35
BBC's Little Women. I need to not
0:37
live out my entire life in the tiny town where I
0:40
was born. You might also
0:42
think of Maya as the daughter of Ethan
0:44
Haak and Uma Thurman, but Maya isn't
0:46
a kid anymore. She's in her mid-20s now. I
0:49
just saw her in Wes Anderson's latest
0:51
movie, Asteroid City, where she plays a
0:53
kinda buttoned-up school teacher. As
0:56
you know, boys and girls, your parents arrived
0:58
late last night by military helicopter. They've been
1:00
sequestered in that metal hut over there for
1:02
the past several hours while they were- And
1:04
in a new biopic called Wildcat, Maya portrays
1:06
a tortured Flannery O'Connor. Dear God, please,
1:09
I can never seem to escape myself unless I'm
1:12
right. She's
1:14
also a singer-songwriter. In May, she'll put
1:16
out her third album, Chaos Angel. Here's
1:19
a single from it called Missing Out.
1:22
Missing out, missing out, missing out.
1:24
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
1:26
whoa. Maya hopped on a
1:29
call with me in her downtime from shooting Stranger
1:31
Things. When we asked her
1:33
to pick an essay for this
1:35
special modern love anniversary series we're
1:37
doing, she chose one called, Our
1:39
Kinder, Gentler, Nobody Moves Out Divorce
1:41
by Jordana Jacobs. It's a
1:43
story about a couple that keeps living together after they
1:46
break up for the sake of their kid. When
1:49
Maya was little, her own famous parents
1:51
went through a very public, very tumultuous
1:53
divorce. It made headlines. But
1:56
outside the spotlight, Maya had to do something so
1:58
many kids of divorce have to do. do navigate
2:01
a life split between two different homes.
2:04
Today, she opens up about that time
2:07
and how it affected her work, her
2:09
relationships, and the way she thinks about love
2:11
now. Maya
2:16
Hawk, welcome to Modern Love. Oh,
2:19
thank you so much, Anna. I couldn't be happier to be
2:21
here. So you have
2:23
said in some interviews
2:25
that you have a kind of nervous habit. You've said
2:28
that when you're anxious, you talk
2:30
a lot and you talk very
2:32
fast. Does that still happen for you? Totally.
2:35
I mean, you'll probably see
2:38
it today even, but it does.
2:40
Honestly, it happens more than ever
2:42
doing press. I want to make
2:45
sure that they understand my exact
2:47
point of view. And I think
2:50
if I was smarter, I would get
2:52
quiet and try to zero in on what
2:54
I thought, and then say like
2:56
one perfect concise sentence. But how hard
2:58
is that? Yeah, it's very difficult. So
3:01
instead, I just kind of talk until
3:03
I get to the thing that I mean. And eventually you
3:05
do get there. And eventually I do get there. You've
3:08
also said in interviews that this kind
3:10
of chatter that you do has followed
3:12
you into your work. And the
3:15
writers of Stranger Things noticed it. So they gave
3:17
your character on the show, Robin, a bunch
3:19
of monologues. Do you find
3:21
that a lot of yourself ends up in
3:24
your onscreen roles or are you stepping into
3:26
a totally new personality when you're
3:28
performing? I
3:31
think it's really depends. An
3:33
interesting thing about television is that because
3:35
you play the character for so long,
3:38
it's actually more important, I think,
3:41
that they take on some qualities
3:43
of you and
3:45
also more inevitable that they will,
3:48
because the writers are actively writing while
3:50
you are shooting. So they are getting
3:53
to know the actor and the performer
3:55
as they are creating their story. Yeah.
3:58
And So. There is
4:00
a blurring. Of the lines lit
4:03
both inspires the writers. I was
4:05
like as know you better and.
4:07
You kind of don't wanna be in
4:09
a situation where I'll eat my words
4:12
on this some day, but where you're
4:14
working for a year on a character
4:16
that requires you to not be yourself
4:19
to play because then you kind of.
4:21
Lose a year of your life a
4:24
little bit. I did a movie. A
4:26
last year old Wild cat was
4:29
playing center O'connor who's very depressed
4:31
and lonely and dark and. I'm
4:34
in no way a method actor, but even
4:36
when you're not the shadow of the person
4:38
they are playing it starts to overtake you.
4:40
Like when I was shooting that I felt
4:42
like the lonely as person in the world
4:45
smile and if you're shooting for up a
4:47
months that's fine. But if you're working for
4:49
year, I don't really want to feel like
4:51
the loneliest person in the world for a
4:54
year and I would much rather feel like
4:56
a. Babbling Intelligence
4:58
funny with our cat
5:00
Sexism Buffoon you are.
5:03
Joking obviously, but feeling.
5:05
Like the loneliest person in the
5:08
world. sounds really hard. How did
5:10
you panic? clog yourself? back some
5:13
that. Well
5:15
one. Great way is to come up
5:18
with a new thing to do right
5:20
away. And so as the day after
5:22
we wraps I went back to New
5:24
York City and I started touring ah
5:26
my last record and so I went
5:28
right into rehearsals and right into a
5:30
new feedback loop which is my band
5:32
who are so my oldest friends and
5:34
so I'm a big part of how
5:36
I think we remember who we are
5:38
as people. is our community reminding us
5:40
who we were. And who we
5:42
want to be. I.
5:45
Went directly from Philly the lonely person
5:47
the world to being on a tour
5:49
bus with my for favorite foods and
5:51
so. That. Was pretty easy transition
5:53
to get out of the blues I will say. I
5:56
hear you built my of that the modern
5:58
on as. You treasury. today is
6:01
called Our Kinder, Gentler, Nobody
6:03
Moves Out Divorce, and
6:05
it's by Jordana Jacobs. Without any spoilers,
6:07
the title kind of indicates it's
6:09
about an unconventionally closed living situation
6:12
between two divorcing people. Can
6:14
you tell me before you read why you
6:16
chose this essay? Yeah,
6:19
I chose it because it's a subject
6:21
of extreme interest to me.
6:24
My parents got divorced when I was a kid,
6:27
and I'm under no illusions,
6:30
or I wonder, slightly fewer illusions. I
6:32
still have some illusions of
6:35
the enduring eternal Cinderella love
6:37
story. Sure. And so it
6:40
seemed to me that maybe
6:43
one of the better ways to go into
6:45
a long-term relationship is not
6:47
just thinking about how you're going to fall
6:49
in love, but if you did break up,
6:51
how would you handle that? And
6:53
are you with someone who you think you could
6:55
have a good breakup with? So
6:58
I've just been really interested in how all
7:00
the different ways to get divorced, and is
7:02
there a good way? Or are they all
7:05
bad? I love this
7:07
framing that it's sort of a falling out of
7:09
love story or figuring out how to live after
7:11
falling out of love story. I would say, I
7:13
want to hear you read
7:15
this thing, so whenever you're ready... Great.
7:19
Our Kinder, Gentler, Nobody Moves
7:21
Out Divorce by Jordana Jacobs.
7:31
When my ex-husband's girlfriend stepped out of the
7:33
bathroom wrapped in a towel, beads of water
7:35
dripping from her brown hair, she ran into me,
7:38
the ex-wife, dashing from
7:40
the bedroom they often share with my ex-husband's
7:42
dirty clothes in my arms. Hi,
7:45
I was just getting his, I
7:47
said before scurrying back downstairs where I was doing
7:50
our laundry. I can
7:52
think of few moments that better capture that time
7:54
in our lives. Me, with my
7:56
ex's, pungent laundry in my arms, trying
7:58
to disappear as if I were a girl. were the maid
8:01
to a volatile celebrity. For
8:04
two people who need a prefix of negation to
8:06
refer to each other, my ex and I have
8:08
had a rather porous boundary between
8:10
my place and his. He
8:12
and I live on separate floors of a two-family
8:15
house in Brooklyn. Our eight-year-old
8:17
son can run upstairs to beg his father to
8:19
let him play Minecraft and run downstairs to have
8:21
the Cheerios he likes with me. I
8:24
dip into my ex's apartment when a recipe calls for
8:26
chia seeds, and he knocks on my door when I
8:29
need help resetting the clock that's too high for me
8:31
to reach. We
8:36
have been like this for more than two years. Technically
8:39
we're still married, although we've filed for
8:41
divorce. Some of the neighbors
8:43
still seem to think we're together. The
8:45
kindly pharmacist always asks for updates and
8:47
sends his regards. But
8:50
we aren't a couple. We no longer
8:52
share a bed, no longer smooch, no longer take
8:54
turns making the salad, no longer
8:56
give each other heartfelt back rubs, no
8:59
longer dream of trips to Italy, no longer put
9:01
our arms around each other in public, no
9:03
longer fight about the shades being crooked,
9:05
no longer outsource our intimacy to Netflix,
9:08
no longer write checks to a couple's counselor,
9:10
no longer hope to fix it. But
9:13
for a while we were still enmeshed in each
9:15
other's lives, which is why I
9:17
was caught in the act of doing a wifely
9:19
chore by the woman with whom he is building
9:22
intimacy and trust. After
9:24
that, we decided the division
9:26
between our places needed some clearer
9:28
boundaries. Some things had
9:30
to change, including laundry duty.
9:35
It can be difficult to imagine feelings or
9:37
arrangements that you don't have language for. For
9:40
example, learning the word schadenfreude, to name
9:42
that dark feeling within yourself felt to
9:44
me like the pleasure of
9:46
tasting an entirely new cuisine. When
9:48
I learned that word, I was not only relieved
9:50
of the shame of that feeling, I
9:53
could also laugh at myself for it. We
9:57
don't have the right vocabulary for our
9:59
relationships our former spouses. The
10:01
term X is loaded. The symbol X
10:04
itself is a crossing out, as
10:06
if by getting married and then divorced you made
10:08
a mistake that needs scratching out with our big
10:10
red pen. Or maybe
10:13
the X is a coming together, the
10:15
meeting point of two diagonal lines, and
10:18
then splitting apart. But like
10:20
many X's we share a child. We
10:22
never fully split. Unlike
10:28
many X's we share a checking account
10:31
and a household. My
10:33
X is the source of the Y
10:35
chromosome that made our son. He
10:37
makes music videos with our child, came
10:39
on the piano, the boy on the drums, and
10:42
takes him camping for days at a time. My
10:45
X lives upstairs from me, encourages
10:48
me to date, texts me CDC updates,
10:50
discusses the boundaries between our apartments so
10:52
he has a chance at building a
10:54
loving relationship with his girlfriend, whom
10:56
I like. And he texts me from the
10:59
grocery store to see if I need anything. Our
11:05
marriage didn't work, but we
11:07
made the most of our separation. When
11:13
I was a child in the 80s, divorce meant
11:15
war. If children weren't the
11:18
weapons, they were the casualties, custody battles,
11:20
friends choosing sides, lawyers as strategies, generals,
11:22
Kramer versus Kramer waking up in a
11:24
holiday inn to your mother's declaration that
11:27
she was divorcing your no good father.
11:30
A father denied visitation rights after the mother
11:32
convinced the judge she was unfit. Children
11:35
of my generation, generation X
11:37
coincidentally, were raised on pails
11:39
about the X's morning stench,
11:42
their ineptitude in the kitchen, their refusal
11:44
to cough up alimony payments. These
11:47
days we have our mediators. We
11:50
get to keep our friends. We
11:52
don't abuse our children with hate. It's
11:55
a kinder and gentler time. My
11:58
ex's girlfriend has moved in upstairs. Hence
12:00
I have stopped doing my ex's laundry,
12:02
and I no longer find fine strands of
12:05
his silver hair coiled around my leggings. Nor
12:08
do I run upstairs to pick up my work from
12:10
the household printer which lives upstairs, or grab
12:13
almond butter from my ex's pantry when I've run
12:15
low, or check that our son
12:17
has enough socks up there. Now
12:19
that my ex has a partner, a
12:21
person who must reconcile herself to this
12:24
newfangled form of co-parenting, I
12:26
no longer cross the threshold of their
12:28
apartment uninvited. There's much
12:30
more texting. Yes,
12:33
I was talked to with a
12:35
lot of wincing and unnecessary apologies.
12:38
My ex explains that I can't
12:40
just run into their apartment willy-nilly
12:43
anymore. I can be
12:45
a little dense, but I'm not so far
12:47
gone that I don't understand that protecting the
12:49
couple's privacy is essential to the cultivation of
12:51
their relationship. I know and
12:54
regret that having the
12:56
ex-wife live downstairs costs them.
13:01
Of course, there are romantic costs on
13:03
both sides. This is dating when
13:05
your ex-husband shares a two-family home with you.
13:10
A man comes over, leans in for
13:12
a first kiss, and hears your son
13:14
pip-patting in the apartment above. He
13:17
tries to ignore it, but he can't help but think
13:19
the father of her child is directly
13:21
upstairs from us. You're
13:24
looking good tonight, and though you have little
13:27
control over it, your charm has made an
13:29
appearance. Still, nothing
13:31
kills the moment like the footfalls of an ex
13:33
on the floor above. Can
13:36
they hear us? Your date asks, panting.
13:39
Not at all, your answer, kissing his neck.
13:43
I can hear them, he whispers. Yes,
13:46
but not the words, right? Just sounds?
13:49
Okay, he says. Okay. The
13:53
next time you meet, he says, let's just
13:55
be friends. At
14:01
times a magnification of your
14:03
loneliness. Is evening. You're.
14:05
Cooking and listening to podcasts as
14:07
much. For a company. As for
14:09
stimulation. Otherwise, it's unusually
14:12
quiet and your apartment your access
14:14
taken your son upstate for a
14:16
few days and there's no one to
14:18
beg you to play Minecraft. His
14:21
girlfriend stay behind. And you can hear
14:24
her voice of stairs but not her
14:26
words. Chances. Are good that
14:28
see. And. Your ex are talking. Intimacy.
14:31
You are reminded atheists without
14:34
you. Sodas Love.
14:36
Your the odd one out. But.
14:40
You also get what you pay for. Because.
14:43
You love your child. Because.
14:46
Being the primary parent makes sense
14:48
for your family because. You're
14:50
access still as hilarious as
14:52
ever because his girlfriend is
14:54
kind and fun and playful
14:56
with your child because you
14:58
choose love, overheat. And
15:00
well, Orcs over needless suffering. You
15:03
stretch your imagination. Disease
15:05
in the script resolved. a better
15:08
prepare future date. For the unusual
15:10
situation except that he would have
15:12
to contend with loneliness. Either way,
15:15
honor new boundaries and make up
15:17
the guidelines as you go. Even
15:20
if you don't have the words or the
15:22
script, My.
15:25
Son asks. And my
15:28
sleeping here tonight. Yes,
15:30
he sleeping downstairs with me, but he
15:32
forgot his book. A child
15:34
is. The only one of us who has free
15:36
run of the building. He
15:39
runs Xerox's apartment where the couple is
15:41
that the kitchen table having dinner. You
15:43
can hear his little voice. And
15:45
their miss her voice is respond. The.
15:48
Camera pulls back. The
15:50
building is like set of a play where you can
15:52
see through the fourth wall. To
15:54
people are having dinner at the kitchen
15:56
table in the top floor one is
15:59
below states left. Washing.
16:01
The dishes. You see
16:03
a child running down the stairs. A
16:05
book in hand, My
16:14
A would the feel like. To read you did such
16:16
a beautiful to other. Oh.
16:22
To me, it's. Pretty heartbreaking.
16:26
But it also. Reminds
16:29
me of the truth that
16:31
in any situation you choose
16:33
your suffering. I can
16:36
remember who's quoted. As I'm embarrassed. But
16:38
loneliness is hard. Relationships are
16:40
hard. You pick what kind
16:42
of hard you prefer. And
16:45
see clearly has chosen.
16:48
The kind of hard that.
16:51
Actually, Welcomes a lot of
16:53
love and a little bit
16:56
less loneliness and less isolation
16:58
and paranoia and demonization. Then
17:00
that's the version that she
17:02
describes from her parents' generation.
17:04
It is actually lonelier to
17:07
hate someone than it is
17:09
to miss them. So
17:11
choosing the pain of missing over the pain
17:14
of hatred. Seems like
17:16
a much better choice. To me. But
17:19
it's still very moving in and the. It's.
17:22
I think does a great job
17:24
of not idealizing the conscious uncoupling,
17:26
or idealizing the relationship with really
17:29
showing the way that is is.
17:32

Maya, you just read a modern love
19:08
essay by Jordana Jacobs, where she and
19:10
her ex stay living in the same
19:12
house, even after they split up. As
19:16
someone who experienced your own
19:18
parents getting divorced very publicly at
19:20
that when you were young, would
19:23
this have been like the
19:25
dream situation for you having
19:27
your parents split up but
19:30
not move apart? I
19:32
think the dream situation is captured by the film
19:34
Parent Trap. Secret
19:38
Twin. Yeah, Secret Twin, get your parents
19:41
back together. But I
19:43
think this would have been a pretty good secondary
19:45
dream. I mean, I remember
19:47
so many hard
19:50
days and fights about like packing your
19:53
bag and you forgot this medicine and
19:55
you have to go back and get
19:57
it and Sunday goodbyes. Then
20:00
the whole day is gone because it's all the transition
20:02
days where everyone is in
20:05
strife. And I remember this
20:07
funny conversation that I had
20:09
with my dad where I
20:11
wanted to go to a party with my friends. And
20:14
he was like, but this is our weekend. This
20:16
is our special time. This is our one weekend.
20:19
And I was like, every weekend can't
20:21
be special. They're
20:23
all my weekends. And you get every
20:26
other one. And my mom gets every other one. And
20:29
I know that that's hard, but
20:31
that makes it so that every one
20:33
of my weekends is special family time.
20:35
And I need to build my friendships.
20:37
This seems like a better way
20:40
of being less
20:42
possessive over your child
20:45
and allowing your child to have
20:47
some more consistency and normalcy
20:50
in their life. So, Dardana's
20:53
living situation does seem like an unusually
20:56
stable arrangement for her son. But
20:58
in your case, you know, you talked
21:01
about all of that
21:03
stressful shuttling between your mom
21:05
and your dad. How
21:07
do you think that affected you as you got older?
21:11
I think initially in my
21:13
late teens and very early
21:15
20s, up until the pandemic sort
21:17
of, and then I went through a big mental
21:20
reset in that time period, I think. But I
21:22
was fixated on
21:25
building my own family. I
21:27
was completely obsessed with
21:30
like, I have to find a partner, and I
21:32
have to get married, and I have to have
21:34
kids really soon. And then
21:36
we'll have Christmas at my house, and everybody can
21:38
be invited. And they can decide whether or not
21:40
they want to come. And I'm going
21:42
to be the home base. I'm going to take control
21:45
over the concept of family by
21:47
building my own and letting people meet
21:49
me on my terms. And
21:52
then thankfully, I did not get married and have
21:54
a child. And instead, I was
21:56
able to sort of recalibrate and being like,
21:58
oh, I don't
22:00
need to build
22:03
a family immediately. I don't
22:05
need to build a revenge family. I
22:08
need to build a
22:10
relationship to myself where I can be my
22:12
own parent and where
22:14
I don't need reinforcements
22:17
outside of myself. I need to
22:19
reinforce myself. I'm
22:21
very glad I don't have a revenge family. You
22:25
know, I wonder if this shift
22:27
that you're talking about in your personal life also
22:30
followed you into your creative life. Did
22:32
it impact the roles you were taking
22:34
or the songs you were writing? Well,
22:38
I left school early. I
22:41
dropped out of drama school. And I think
22:43
that part of that decision had to do
22:45
with the concept of revenge family. Like I
22:47
wanna be an adult. I don't wanna take
22:49
money from anyone. I want a job. I
22:52
want my own apartment. I'm adulting myself now.
22:54
And I tried to do it young and
22:56
fast and hard. I
22:58
think that I then through
23:01
the pandemic actually
23:03
allowed myself to be a kid. I
23:06
moved back home and I went back
23:08
and forth from my parents' homes during
23:11
the pandemic on my
23:13
own terms. And something
23:18
healed. And my
23:20
relationship to even my art
23:22
became less like I
23:24
have to make money. I have to be
23:27
successful. I have to
23:29
build this life into like, whoa, I actually
23:31
love this. The
23:33
reason that I wanted to go to drama school in the
23:35
first place was because I
23:37
love this work. And I
23:39
love art. And I wanna do
23:41
it in the pandemic. I wanna do it when no
23:43
one's watching. I wanna read plays with my friends over
23:46
the phone and my kind
23:48
of spark for my why
23:50
I was doing what I was doing kind of
23:53
healed in my letting myself
23:55
be reparented. I'm
23:57
so happy that you're on the other
23:59
side. of that and
24:01
it sounds like you are really thriving
24:04
creatively. I
24:07
want to talk about your music
24:09
now. You have a new album coming
24:11
out in May. Yeah, yeah. It's called
24:13
Chaos Angel and I
24:15
know we can't hear it yet but because
24:17
this is Modern Love, I have
24:20
to ask, are there any love songs that we
24:22
can look forward to on the album? Maybe
24:26
the love song I'm most proud of writing is
24:28
the title track Chaos Angel because there's this
24:30
thing that came into my head which
24:33
was all my relationships went in this pattern
24:35
of crushes, romance,
24:37
commitments, and then apologies. That
24:41
song is a big love song about wanting
24:43
to break out of that chaos loop and
24:46
then kind of feeling like you do. I think
24:49
I write mostly love songs about
24:51
all different kinds of love. I mean I remember
24:54
when I learned how many of
24:56
the most famous love songs were actually
24:58
about people's children there's like
25:00
a long list. Well, the
25:02
album honestly sounds very Modern Love. Well,
25:05
maybe it should become the Modern Love official album
25:07
of Modern Love. I think we should change this
25:09
song. I think you're totally right. Thank you so
25:11
much. Thank you so much. Maya,
25:14
thank you so much. What a lovely conversation. I'm so glad
25:16
I had the chance to talk to you today. Me
25:19
too. You rock and your podcast rocks
25:21
and that story rocks. Thank you so
25:23
much. Hey
25:28
listeners, be sure to check out Maya's
25:31
new album Chaos Angel when it
25:33
drops on May 31st. Next
25:36
week's guest doesn't make movies or
25:38
write songs but she's turned couple
25:40
therapy into an art form. You
25:42
won't want to miss my conversation
25:44
with Esther Perel. We grow up
25:46
learning to be silent about sex
25:48
and never talk about it and
25:50
then suddenly we are expected to
25:52
talk about it with the person
25:54
we love. Reva
