Travers is taken aback by the admission, but Lowe explains that it was just an innocent moment of fun. "We all do things that we're not proud of," he says. "But sometimes you just have to let loose and enjoy life."

Throughout the episode, Travers and Lowe share plenty of laughs and insightful anecdotes. It's clear that despite the ups and downs of his career, Lowe has a love for storytelling that is infectious.
