Welcome to the HandsomePod. I am here. I'm Mae Martin.
41
00:01:53.730 --> 00:01:55.359
I'm one of your hosts. I'm joined by.
42
00:01:55.379 --> 00:01:56.739
Dignotaro.
43
00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:58.239
I am also a host.
44
00:01:58.319 --> 00:01:59.379
Oh, what's your name?
45
00:01:59.780 --> 00:02:02.590
I'm a fortune beamster. I think I'm also a host.
46
00:02:03.269 --> 00:02:04.090
Absolutely.
47
00:02:04.109 --> 00:02:05.549
We all are.
48
00:02:06.030 --> 00:02:07.609
I think it's safe to say at this point you're
49
00:02:07.629 --> 00:02:08.229
one of the hosts.
50
00:02:08.990 --> 00:02:11.500
You guys, the host with the most.
51
00:02:11.969 --> 00:02:13.319
Well, that's up for debate.
52
00:02:13.699 --> 00:02:15.259
No, all of us. We're the host.
53
00:02:15.539 --> 00:02:16.180
Oh, okay.
54
00:02:16.259 --> 00:02:18.960
And you just couldn't hear the S, hosts.
55
00:02:19.780 --> 00:02:24.210
You know, it's fine. I'm not terribly competitive.
56
00:02:25.050 --> 00:02:25.189
Really?
57
00:02:25.270 --> 00:02:28.710
I'll be honest. No, except when Stephanie wants to play
58
00:02:28.710 --> 00:02:31.969
20 questions, then my competitive side comes out.
59
00:02:32.990 --> 00:02:35.800
What is 20 questions? I don't think of.
60
00:02:35.780 --> 00:02:37.699
That as a very competitive game, but.
61
00:02:38.020 --> 00:02:41.620
Well, her mother pointed it out yesterday because Stephanie is
62
00:02:41.780 --> 00:02:45.259
so good. Like if you say, oh, there is a
63
00:02:46.300 --> 00:02:54.310
comedian that has, you know, moved, whatever, some sort of,
64
00:02:54.449 --> 00:02:57.840
you put out some sort of information. And then Stephanie
65
00:02:57.860 --> 00:03:00.060
will be like, oh, can I guess who it is?
66
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:02.280
And I'll be like, sure. Or I'll be like, oh,
67
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.659
so-and-so started dating so-and-so. You know, how I love to gossip.
68
00:03:06.780 --> 00:03:11.409
And she goes, she'll say, can I ask 20 questions?
69
00:03:11.530 --> 00:03:12.449
And then I'll say, sure.
70
00:03:12.469 --> 00:03:14.310
Oh, to like figure out who it is.
71
00:03:14.389 --> 00:03:20.069
Yeah. And so we'll play that very, she's so good,
72
00:03:20.129 --> 00:03:24.370
it's stupid. And so the other morning, Her mother was
73
00:03:24.449 --> 00:03:28.659
here with us and we're having coffee, chatting. Something comes up.
74
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:31.120
Stephanie says, can we play 20 questions?
75
00:03:31.340 --> 00:03:31.539
Sure.
76
00:03:31.979 --> 00:03:36.199
We're playing. And then Stephanie's mother's like, whoa, gosh, you're
77
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:39.659
just as competitive as Stephanie. And I was like, what
78
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:42.409
do you mean? And I realized when she pointed this
79
00:03:42.590 --> 00:03:46.580
out that if Stephanie asks a question like, And then
80
00:03:46.659 --> 00:03:49.599
she asked something on top of that question. I'm like,
81
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.939
that's your fourth question. That's not like part of your
82
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:53.699
third question.
83
00:03:53.819 --> 00:03:54.379
Right, right.
84
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:58.509
And so I get really competitive with this because Stephanie is,
85
00:03:58.830 --> 00:04:02.969
she's so competitive. She's so good at it. But in general,
86
00:04:03.409 --> 00:04:11.580
I'm just not terribly competitive. Like, I'm just not terribly competitive. Right.
87
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.659
I can see that. I can be like. you're like
88
00:04:14.699 --> 00:04:19.790
yeah so what I'm lost who cares yeah.
89
00:04:19.329 --> 00:04:21.269
I'm lost who cares.
90
00:04:21.550 --> 00:04:25.699
No like I remember doing long distance cycling sometimes for
91
00:04:25.779 --> 00:04:29.060
charity and some people even though it's not a race
92
00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:34.459
some people still race and I was dead last and
93
00:04:34.509 --> 00:04:36.069
it was a four-day ride.
94
00:04:36.310 --> 00:04:41.079
Oh, four days. Was that an AIDS life cycle? One
95
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:43.040
of them was, yeah.
96
00:04:43.100 --> 00:04:47.060
But it's like 100 mile days that you're cycling.
97
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:48.379
Did your booty not hurt?
98
00:04:49.779 --> 00:04:52.160
I mean, it does, but you also spend a lot
99
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:56.379
of time training. And so you're building up to that moment.
100
00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:58.000
You're not just getting on your bike.
101
00:04:58.910 --> 00:05:01.209
I just picture just getting on the bike and be like,
102
00:05:01.250 --> 00:05:02.209
I guess we're doing this.
103
00:05:02.939 --> 00:05:05.439
But you came dead last and you were like, yeah, whatever.
104
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:06.379
I had the experience.
105
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:09.519
I came dead last, but I mainly came dead last
106
00:05:09.779 --> 00:05:13.040
because I blew out one of my knees and you know,
107
00:05:13.060 --> 00:05:16.980
those like clip in, um, bike shoes in the pedal.
108
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:18.480
Yeah.
109
00:05:18.500 --> 00:05:23.199
I rested my foot of the busted knee on the
110
00:05:23.259 --> 00:05:26.399
fork of my bike and use the other one to
111
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:31.699
pedal nearly 50 miles. And I kept picturing that my
112
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:35.069
right thigh was going to be three times the size
113
00:05:35.089 --> 00:05:38.589
of my left by the time I reached Portland, Maine.
114
00:05:39.050 --> 00:05:41.290
But that's not the only time. I just, in general,
115
00:05:41.329 --> 00:05:50.870
I just don't feel work, sports, any of that kind
116
00:05:50.910 --> 00:05:53.620
of stuff. I'm just like, I just don't feel it.
117
00:05:53.949 --> 00:05:54.230
Yeah.
118
00:05:54.310 --> 00:05:58.430
I think you should introduce... Instead of 20 questions, I
119
00:05:58.470 --> 00:06:01.370
play hide the peanut where one person hides a peanut
120
00:06:01.490 --> 00:06:05.129
metaphorically somewhere in the universe. And then you have yes
121
00:06:05.170 --> 00:06:07.949
or no questions to find this peanut. It could be
122
00:06:07.980 --> 00:06:10.319
in the past, the present, the future. It could be
123
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:13.139
in a fictional place, a real place. And you'd be
124
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:16.360
amazed how quickly you whittle down like the whole universe
125
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:17.680
and find this peanut.
126
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:19.860
And you have played this?
127
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:21.350
I play it all the time.
128
00:06:22.449 --> 00:06:25.209
All the time. yeah you got it all the time
129
00:06:25.509 --> 00:06:29.250
try and pull Mae from the hide the peanut game yeah.
130
00:06:28.790 --> 00:06:31.110
Yeah yeah I'll hide one right now if you want
131
00:06:31.410 --> 00:06:34.189
oh my lord I've hidden one I'm.
132
00:06:34.069 --> 00:06:36.139
Not good at these games so we have to guess.
133
00:06:35.899 --> 00:06:39.259
Where it is yeah yes or no questions is it
134
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:44.800
in space no is it on earth yeah okay then
135
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:46.959
what is it that's how.
136
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:49.910
I am is it in Los Angeles no is it
137
00:06:49.990 --> 00:06:51.529
in California.
138
00:06:51.310 --> 00:06:55.449
No England no Is it in Toronto? Yes.
139
00:06:56.529 --> 00:06:58.670
Okay. Is it in the room with you now?
140
00:06:59.089 --> 00:06:59.529
Yes.
141
00:06:59.889 --> 00:07:01.610
Okay, Tig.
142
00:07:01.730 --> 00:07:02.889
Just tell us.
143
00:07:02.910 --> 00:07:03.730
Just tell us.
144
00:07:03.769 --> 00:07:05.129
No, you're so close.
145
00:07:05.329 --> 00:07:08.910
Is it on your body?
146
00:07:08.930 --> 00:07:10.970
Yes, in a way.
147
00:07:11.250 --> 00:07:13.269
I give up. What is it?
148
00:07:13.370 --> 00:07:14.060
In a way?
149
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:18.439
Tig, we've narrowed it down so much. I don't like games.
150
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:19.420
By we, I mean me.
151
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:21.240
You've contributed nothing.
152
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:22.500
I don't like games.
153
00:07:23.209 --> 00:07:25.730
Where do you think I would keep a peanut? In
154
00:07:25.769 --> 00:07:27.290
your shoe.
155
00:07:28.610 --> 00:07:32.560
In your ear. Pocket. Is it in your hat?
156
00:07:33.189 --> 00:07:33.500
No.
157
00:07:34.540 --> 00:07:35.019
Mouth.
158
00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:36.720
Think about the pod.
159
00:07:37.300 --> 00:07:38.420
Behind a picture frame.
160
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:38.560
No. No.
161
00:07:42.860 --> 00:07:44.899
Think about the ponies. It's in your ponies.
162
00:07:44.980 --> 00:07:46.540
It's in my ponies.
163
00:07:46.620 --> 00:07:47.920
It's in my ponies.
164
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:49.079
I got it.
165
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:50.439
Look at that.
166
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:52.439
I thought you were going to be useless. And then
167
00:07:52.459 --> 00:07:53.879
you really came through at the end.
168
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.019
That's truly how I play with Stephanie when she's like
169
00:07:57.759 --> 00:08:01.509
wanting to do 20 questions with me, you know, and
170
00:08:01.550 --> 00:08:04.170
then I'll, I'll guess some things. I'm like, what, what
171
00:08:04.250 --> 00:08:04.540
is it?
172
00:08:04.750 --> 00:08:06.370
What is it? I don't just give up.
173
00:08:06.389 --> 00:08:06.610
Yeah.
174
00:08:09.589 --> 00:08:11.889
I think I want to... There's a lot of games
175
00:08:11.930 --> 00:08:13.970
that I used to play that I've not played in many,
176
00:08:13.990 --> 00:08:16.750
many years. And then I want to come back to
177
00:08:16.870 --> 00:08:18.329
playing again. Like what?
178
00:08:18.350 --> 00:08:19.509
Hopscotch. Hopscotch.
179
00:08:19.750 --> 00:08:22.449
Is this any board game? When people mention board games,
180
00:08:22.490 --> 00:08:24.329
I'm like, oh, I don't remember how that goes. Uno,
181
00:08:24.389 --> 00:08:27.290
I don't remember how that was played. Yeah, me neither, actually.
182
00:08:27.310 --> 00:08:29.389
I don't know. Just any kind of game.
183
00:08:30.069 --> 00:08:32.659
I wonder if we could make a handsome board game
184
00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:36.299
that's like Monopoly, but all the places are... You know,
185
00:08:36.340 --> 00:08:38.179
there's a pontoon. You can... Or.
186
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:44.220
I'm a pontoon. Actually, if anyone's listening and wants to
187
00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:44.980
make a handsome.
188
00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:46.039
If anyone's listening.
189
00:08:47.500 --> 00:08:52.179
If anyone is listening to this pod, let us know.
190
00:08:52.299 --> 00:08:53.269
I love that song.
191
00:08:53.309 --> 00:08:54.570
Papa, can you hear me?
192
00:08:54.990 --> 00:08:58.169
Papa, can you hear me? I should text Phillip and
193
00:08:58.210 --> 00:09:00.149
ask Little Big Town to do a question.
194
00:09:00.750 --> 00:09:01.169
Oh, yeah.
195
00:09:01.250 --> 00:09:05.250
And tell him that Handsome's favorite pontoon song is On
196
00:09:05.289 --> 00:09:05.950
the Pontoon.
197
00:09:06.559 --> 00:09:10.240
Well, why don't we get Barbra Streisand to ask a question?
198
00:09:10.259 --> 00:09:13.960
We don't have any contact with Barbra Streisand.
199
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.059
Yeah, what brought up Barbra Streisand?
200
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.210
Because of Yentl, Papa. Can you hear me?
201
00:09:18.940 --> 00:09:19.059
Oh.
202
00:09:20.019 --> 00:09:21.860
Yeah, but we have to have some sort of in.
203
00:09:21.980 --> 00:09:24.539
I just did with Babs.
204
00:09:24.659 --> 00:09:28.409
Oh, my God. If Babs sent in a video... I'd die.
205
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:30.960
Hello, handsome. That would be.
206
00:09:31.379 --> 00:09:32.830
That's impossible, right?
207
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:37.700
I think it's impossible. She's not really... wanting to talk
208
00:09:37.740 --> 00:09:39.100
to anybody i feel like.
209
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.100
It's actually more impossible than say obama paul mccartney like
210
00:09:43.139 --> 00:09:45.639
the big name like babs is really unreachable i.
211
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.360
Think oh she has like a mall in her house.
212
00:09:48.649 --> 00:09:51.529
Yeah where she can go she has a mall in
213
00:09:51.570 --> 00:09:54.429
her basement where she can go shopping for antique dolls
214
00:09:54.490 --> 00:09:55.909
i think like there's.
215
00:09:55.710 --> 00:10:00.840
Shops yeah my friends have been there because I did
216
00:10:00.879 --> 00:10:04.379
this show called Life in Pieces. It was on CBS
217
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.379
a few years back, and her husband was on the show.
218
00:10:08.220 --> 00:10:11.750
And Barbara invited the ladies of the show, but the
219
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.769
series regulars, to their freaking house for lunch. When they
220
00:10:16.789 --> 00:10:18.669
were doing the show and they got to take a
221
00:10:18.710 --> 00:10:21.879
tour and see all this stuff. And I couldn't believe it.
222
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:23.779
Oh, my God.
223
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:26.610
I was a recurring character, but not a series regular.
224
00:10:26.669 --> 00:10:29.909
So I wasn't in that. But I would have died
225
00:10:29.929 --> 00:10:30.529
to go.
226
00:10:30.529 --> 00:10:33.649
Imagine having them all in your... mall in your house?
227
00:10:34.029 --> 00:10:36.149
I would never want.
228
00:10:36.429 --> 00:10:37.509
I'm so confused.
229
00:10:38.250 --> 00:10:40.690
She cloned her dog, I think, right?
230
00:10:40.950 --> 00:10:42.009
She cloned her dog multiple times.
231
00:10:42.049 --> 00:10:44.909
I can understand that. I can't understand having a mall
232
00:10:44.990 --> 00:10:45.769
in your house.
233
00:10:45.789 --> 00:10:48.220
Well, she wants to have a normal experience and she
234
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:49.409
can't just go to the mall.
235
00:10:49.509 --> 00:10:53.220
And that's a normal experience is having a mall in
236
00:10:53.259 --> 00:10:53.740
your house?
237
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:58.899
Memories. She's like the corner of my mind.
238
00:10:58.980 --> 00:11:01.500
I stand by guilty being the best.
239
00:11:02.139 --> 00:11:05.019
And we got nothing to be guilty of.
240
00:11:05.700 --> 00:11:10.850
I love her. I don't remember the words. Is that about...
241
00:11:10.629 --> 00:11:15.269
Is that about like she's... I'm amazed that she's not
242
00:11:15.330 --> 00:11:26.269
on the pod. That song is a jam, Tig. You're right.
243
00:11:26.370 --> 00:11:26.830
Oh, my God.
244
00:11:26.929 --> 00:11:32.570
Guilty. And my favorite, favorite line or part of the
245
00:11:32.629 --> 00:11:35.509
song is that make it a crime to be lonely
246
00:11:35.549 --> 00:11:36.070
or sad.
247
00:11:36.629 --> 00:11:37.669
Make it a crime.
248
00:11:37.690 --> 00:11:40.120
Make it a crime. Have the police pull over and
249
00:11:40.169 --> 00:11:41.580
lock you up.
250
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:45.279
Are you lonely or sad? This is illegal.
251
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:49.639
But are they cheating on their parents? spouses and they're
252
00:11:49.659 --> 00:11:51.259
saying we got, we don't have to be guilty.
253
00:11:51.350 --> 00:11:52.490
Is that what it's about?
254
00:11:52.509 --> 00:11:57.029
I think it's about an affair and they're like, Oh no. Sorry.
255
00:12:00.450 --> 00:12:01.649
I'm going to Google this.
256
00:12:02.470 --> 00:12:05.220
Yeah. Is Babs guilty?
257
00:12:05.789 --> 00:12:06.240
Yeah.
258
00:12:06.340 --> 00:12:10.639
Should Babs be guilty? Um, I got an update for
259
00:12:10.659 --> 00:12:13.659
you guys. Oh, well, I don't know if it was
260
00:12:13.700 --> 00:12:15.759
on a mini soda or if I was talking about
261
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:17.139
how I have a foosball table.
262
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:18.039
Uh huh.
263
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:19.460
Did I tell you guys that?
264
00:12:19.500 --> 00:12:19.740
Yeah.
265
00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:22.940
And my friend, Matt, who lives in my back house,
266
00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:27.740
he's incredible at foosball. And I've played him thousands of times.
267
00:12:27.779 --> 00:12:30.480
I've only beat him three times. And it's really something
268
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:33.440
he's good at. And so I Googled, he's new to LA,
269
00:12:33.659 --> 00:12:37.019
and I found a foosball competition in Angel City Brewery.
270
00:12:37.830 --> 00:12:40.190
And it's the only one in LA. It's every Thursday.
271
00:12:40.450 --> 00:12:44.000
And I was like, Matt, we should sign up. And Boy,
272
00:12:44.039 --> 00:12:46.279
do we take it seriously. Every morning he's like, Hey buddy,
273
00:12:46.299 --> 00:12:48.809
do you mind practicing with me? Like he was really
274
00:12:48.870 --> 00:12:52.970
driven and we got dressed up. The day came, we
275
00:12:53.009 --> 00:12:55.309
were nervous. I was like, we're going to be on
276
00:12:55.350 --> 00:12:57.409
their turf. Whoever these foosball people are.
277
00:12:57.429 --> 00:12:57.509
Yeah.
278
00:12:59.409 --> 00:13:06.399
Like they could be like jocks or savants, like foosball savants. Anyway, guys,
279
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:08.120
we won the tournament.
280
00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:08.779
What?
281
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:13.100
You know why? Because no one else showed up.
282
00:13:13.379 --> 00:13:15.860
Oh my God.
283
00:13:16.340 --> 00:13:18.279
It was so embarrassing.
284
00:13:19.100 --> 00:13:19.600
Wow.
285
00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:22.710
It was more embarrassing than losing was just waiting there
286
00:13:23.169 --> 00:13:25.370
with the signup sheet at the bar. We signed up
287
00:13:25.509 --> 00:13:27.509
and just no one came. And so me and Matt
288
00:13:27.549 --> 00:13:31.870
just played. Where's the foosball community?
289
00:13:32.090 --> 00:13:33.950
Well, do you know the comedian Kelsey cook?
290
00:13:34.740 --> 00:13:35.480
Kelsey Cook.
291
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:38.240
Y'all might not have crossed paths. She lives in Minneapolis now.
292
00:13:38.259 --> 00:13:40.179
She used to live in LA, but she's an incredible
293
00:13:40.220 --> 00:13:44.080
foosball player and plays in like tournaments and stuff. Really?
294
00:13:44.100 --> 00:13:47.809
You know, so is Lisa Gilroy. And, uh, but she
295
00:13:47.889 --> 00:13:51.450
wins largely because her shit talk is so funny that
296
00:13:51.470 --> 00:13:54.570
you're like doubled over. She does this thing where she goes,
297
00:13:54.909 --> 00:13:57.570
you want it? You want it? Well, you can't have it.
298
00:13:59.570 --> 00:14:01.669
So you're telling me Lisa Gilroy is funny.
299
00:14:02.460 --> 00:14:03.240
Oh man.
300
00:14:05.620 --> 00:14:07.470
You want it you want it but you can't have
301
00:14:07.850 --> 00:14:10.590
it i and you can't like your muscles get weak
302
00:14:10.929 --> 00:14:13.090
from laughing it's a really good but she is also
303
00:14:13.129 --> 00:14:14.309
a great player.
304
00:14:14.549 --> 00:14:18.669
I like that the the um table shuffleboard game you
305
00:14:18.710 --> 00:14:21.429
know at a bar yeah the big long one that
306
00:14:21.529 --> 00:14:26.090
you do with your hands yeah with the salt i
307
00:14:26.129 --> 00:14:28.970
love those there you put there's like salt on the
308
00:14:29.009 --> 00:14:31.450
board or whatever Oh, to make it slide. It helps
309
00:14:31.549 --> 00:14:33.750
it slide. I love that game.
310
00:14:34.269 --> 00:14:35.480
Maybe I have to get one of those.
311
00:14:35.860 --> 00:14:38.639
Are you going for a full-on bachelor pad, May?
312
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.000
It's becoming, do you almost call me Max?
313
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:46.039
I don't know. My mouth is moving and sounds come out.
314
00:14:46.100 --> 00:14:49.159
I don't know.
315
00:14:49.559 --> 00:14:52.860
It's becoming Pee Wee's Playhouse, my house. I bought a
316
00:14:52.899 --> 00:14:53.860
Zoltar machine.
317
00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:54.779
What is that?
318
00:14:55.789 --> 00:14:59.360
You know, like from Big that tells your fortune? Zoltar.
319
00:14:59.919 --> 00:15:02.779
Oh. You have one of those in your house?
320
00:15:03.139 --> 00:15:05.659
I thought I'd ordered a full size. It shows up.
321
00:15:05.740 --> 00:15:07.500
It's this big. It's like tiny.
322
00:15:07.980 --> 00:15:09.220
You wanted full size.
323
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:10.570
I wanted full size.
324
00:15:10.710 --> 00:15:12.570
I think the smaller one's better, no?
325
00:15:13.429 --> 00:15:13.690
Why?
326
00:15:13.710 --> 00:15:15.690
Because it's smaller.
327
00:15:15.710 --> 00:15:17.110
Not some giant head.
328
00:15:17.129 --> 00:15:21.049
I want the giant one. Funny.
329
00:15:21.129 --> 00:15:23.049
I got to come to this bachelor pad at some
330
00:15:23.110 --> 00:15:24.730
point to see what's happening over there.
331
00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:28.460
I'll get that shuffled board game if it'll make you come.
332
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:38.379
I mean, that sounds... We're.
333
00:15:38.990 --> 00:15:40.590
Very mature over here.
334
00:15:40.610 --> 00:15:41.809
We're so pure.
335
00:15:42.330 --> 00:15:45.250
So are you loving this house? It seems like this
336
00:15:45.289 --> 00:15:46.509
was a good investment, huh?
337
00:15:47.090 --> 00:15:49.169
Loving this house. Yeah, I really am.
338
00:15:49.570 --> 00:15:51.450
And it feels like home now? Because I had asked
339
00:15:51.490 --> 00:15:53.700
you in the early days, is it feeling like home?
340
00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:54.149
You said no.
341
00:15:54.850 --> 00:15:55.110
Yeah.
342
00:15:55.210 --> 00:15:56.090
It is feeling like home.
343
00:15:56.129 --> 00:15:57.169
Yeah. Yeah.
344
00:15:57.740 --> 00:16:01.659
And, and like a real homeowner, like stuff is breaking
345
00:16:01.700 --> 00:16:03.580
and then I got to get it fixed. And I
346
00:16:03.620 --> 00:16:04.440
kind of like it all.
347
00:16:04.980 --> 00:16:08.440
It's such a, I'm, I'm jealous of that feeling of, um,
348
00:16:09.409 --> 00:16:12.730
the beginning of trying to make a house feel like
349
00:16:12.769 --> 00:16:16.529
a home. Like it's such a fun new experience.
350
00:16:16.830 --> 00:16:18.210
Yeah, it really is.
351
00:16:18.289 --> 00:16:20.470
Where you like go to bed at night at first
352
00:16:20.549 --> 00:16:23.649
and you're like, Oh, this is a strange room. This
353
00:16:23.769 --> 00:16:27.620
is where am I? And then boom, one day you
354
00:16:27.700 --> 00:16:28.379
are home.
355
00:16:28.820 --> 00:16:29.100
Yeah.
356
00:16:29.539 --> 00:16:32.279
Yeah. And no one can kick you out. No landlord's
357
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:32.940
going to say.
358
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:34.779
As long as you pay your bills.
359
00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:37.779
Well, I mean, did you buy your house outright? Because
360
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:38.470
people could.
361
00:16:39.009 --> 00:16:39.690
What do you mean?
362
00:16:40.029 --> 00:16:40.230
No.
363
00:16:40.250 --> 00:16:41.429
Do you have a mortgage?
364
00:16:41.789 --> 00:16:42.129
Yeah.
365
00:16:42.509 --> 00:16:44.700
They could kick you out if you don't. Yeah, you
366
00:16:44.740 --> 00:16:45.899
have to keep paying.
367
00:16:46.419 --> 00:16:48.320
But who's going to kick me out? The bank?
368
00:16:48.980 --> 00:16:49.200
Yeah.
369
00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:49.799
Yes, they will.
370
00:16:49.820 --> 00:16:53.500
Yeah, I guess so. No, I mean, I'll pay the mortgage.
371
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:56.000
The bank will be like, this is mine.
372
00:16:56.100 --> 00:16:56.659
Thank you.
373
00:16:56.700 --> 00:16:59.940
Bye-bye. I already bought this. Get out of my house, bank.
374
00:17:06.589 --> 00:17:09.710
Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance.
375
00:17:10.049 --> 00:17:12.349
Not checking that I put away all my puppets before
376
00:17:12.410 --> 00:17:15.309
going to sleep. That's the stuff of nightmares. I woke
377
00:17:15.349 --> 00:17:16.529
up to get some water in the middle of the
378
00:17:16.569 --> 00:17:18.589
night and I thought an army of tiny folk had
379
00:17:18.670 --> 00:17:19.789
come to life in my house.
380
00:17:20.130 --> 00:17:21.509
Yeah, checking first is handsome.
381
00:17:21.890 --> 00:17:23.990
So check Allstate first for an auto quote.
382
00:17:24.130 --> 00:17:27.380
It could save you hundreds. You're in good hands with Allstate.
383
00:17:27.730 --> 00:17:31.099
Potential savings vary subject to terms, conditions, and availability. Allstate,
384
00:17:31.130 --> 00:17:33.660
North American insurance company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois.
385
00:17:34.220 --> 00:17:36.789
As we head into the fall, it is the perfect
386
00:17:36.829 --> 00:17:40.029
time to hit reset before the autumn rush. And for me,
387
00:17:40.269 --> 00:17:43.789
that always starts with my wardrobe. Quince proves you don't
388
00:17:43.809 --> 00:17:46.109
need a crowded closet to look incredible. You just need
389
00:17:46.130 --> 00:17:47.170
the right pieces.
390
00:17:47.710 --> 00:17:50.990
I am awful choosy about my denim, but I was
391
00:17:51.069 --> 00:17:54.769
so impressed by Quince's straight leg jeans. The best part
392
00:17:54.869 --> 00:17:58.170
was the quality, but the other best part was the price.
393
00:17:58.579 --> 00:18:02.839
Their jeans were priced at just $ 50. That's comparable to
394
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:10.789
$ 245 at traditional retail. That's a 79% savings. Plus, you
395
00:18:10.829 --> 00:18:13.509
get an amazing pair of jeans to go with all
396
00:18:14.150 --> 00:18:17.349
your cash. I find myself reaching for my Quince jeans
397
00:18:17.569 --> 00:18:19.769
over and over again. Quince, I'm a fan.

404
00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:43.160
I still have so many things not on the walls
405
00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:45.380
at my house, and I've been here two and a
406
00:18:45.420 --> 00:18:45.960
half years.
407
00:18:46.819 --> 00:18:50.500
Yes, maybe you need some big art, like a big, giant...
408
00:18:50.880 --> 00:18:51.279
I don't.
409
00:18:51.140 --> 00:18:53.559
Know if I'll end up selling this place and I
410
00:18:53.599 --> 00:18:57.420
kind of want something smaller. Right. It's too big. And
411
00:18:57.720 --> 00:18:58.839
now it's just me.
412
00:18:58.940 --> 00:19:01.299
So you want to move into my back house with
413
00:19:01.339 --> 00:19:02.319
Matt and his girlfriend?
414
00:19:02.339 --> 00:19:06.960
Well, that's definitely too small. I would like my, my
415
00:19:07.009 --> 00:19:10.650
last house I adored. It was the best and I
416
00:19:10.769 --> 00:19:12.869
made it exactly how I wanted it, but it was
417
00:19:12.910 --> 00:19:15.049
a little too small. So I want something in between
418
00:19:15.089 --> 00:19:15.589
these two.
419
00:19:16.190 --> 00:19:19.150
It's a good, like fresh start. I mean, I, I was,
420
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:24.480
post breakup bought the house and it was distracting and, uh,
421
00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:27.849
felt empowering to like make your space your own.
422
00:19:27.869 --> 00:19:27.950
Yeah.
423
00:19:28.150 --> 00:19:31.250
Yeah. I'm not in a hurry. It might not be
424
00:19:31.369 --> 00:19:32.990
anytime soon, but at some point.
425
00:19:33.529 --> 00:19:35.950
Tell us that you're going to bring that fake plant
426
00:19:35.970 --> 00:19:37.869
with you. If you move.
427
00:19:37.910 --> 00:19:41.390
This is coming everywhere with me. I love that this
428
00:19:42.369 --> 00:19:46.440
is how I'm zhuzhing up my zoom box.
429
00:19:46.500 --> 00:19:49.160
Where do I put my plastic plant?
430
00:19:49.819 --> 00:19:49.890
Oh.
431
00:19:50.619 --> 00:19:53.920
I might make this other room in here a little
432
00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:56.769
handsome spot with a chair and everything. You guys just
433
00:19:56.829 --> 00:19:57.430
wait to see.
434
00:19:57.450 --> 00:19:59.470
What do you mean a handsome spot?
435
00:19:59.809 --> 00:20:02.349
Like a little corner of this room. I might put
436
00:20:02.390 --> 00:20:05.890
like a chair and like hang something up on the wall.
437
00:20:06.009 --> 00:20:07.349
Definitely the fake plant.
438
00:20:08.009 --> 00:20:10.549
But I mean, handsome, meaning when you record handsome?
439
00:20:10.569 --> 00:20:13.339
When I record, that will be my spot. Yeah. Okay.
440
00:20:13.670 --> 00:20:14.059
All right.
441
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:16.339
Right now I'm just at my desk, but I might
442
00:20:16.380 --> 00:20:18.660
make a designated handsome spot.
443
00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:21.019
Do you think you'll ever move, Tig? Like when the
444
00:20:21.059 --> 00:20:24.619
boys go off to college or whatever, would you guys move?
445
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:32.119
We have talked about, yeah, potentially selling our house when
446
00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:35.490
they graduate and just moving back into our office, which is,
447
00:20:36.250 --> 00:20:40.130
you know, just a little bungalow, um, that we love
448
00:20:40.450 --> 00:20:40.990
very much.
449
00:20:41.329 --> 00:20:43.950
It's kind of a sexy vibe, the office. It's, it's,
450
00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:48.019
it's unusual, the layout and there's like, it's, it's stained
451
00:20:48.079 --> 00:20:49.960
glass and stuff, right? It's beautiful.
452
00:20:49.980 --> 00:20:51.019
Yeah. Yeah.
453
00:20:51.220 --> 00:20:54.740
We really love it there. And, um, and our, and
454
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:57.549
we love where we live now. We just, I don't
455
00:20:57.569 --> 00:20:59.529
know if I've mentioned this or not, but we have
456
00:20:59.710 --> 00:21:05.509
never like, done our house because we moved in when
457
00:21:05.549 --> 00:21:08.630
Max and Finn were one and they were so nuts
458
00:21:09.289 --> 00:21:11.950
that we didn't even have furniture in the living room
459
00:21:12.130 --> 00:21:14.759
for the first, like until they were two.
460
00:21:14.779 --> 00:21:18.160
You never like adultified the house.
461
00:21:18.180 --> 00:21:20.359
No. And then by the time they finally kind of
462
00:21:20.400 --> 00:21:23.420
calmed down, we never put art on the walls. We just,
463
00:21:23.539 --> 00:21:26.380
we were, we just had these two little lunatics running
464
00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:28.890
around And then by the time they kind of pulled
465
00:21:28.930 --> 00:21:31.529
it together, it was a pandemic. And then we couldn't
466
00:21:31.589 --> 00:21:36.029
even deal with, you know, doing our house or having
467
00:21:36.069 --> 00:21:39.630
somebody come in. And then, so now we're getting to
468
00:21:39.670 --> 00:21:42.750
that place where we're like, Max and Finn are so
469
00:21:42.849 --> 00:21:48.309
chill and the pandemic's over and let's actually do something
470
00:21:48.349 --> 00:21:49.869
with our house.
471
00:21:50.170 --> 00:21:53.250
Did you ever watch those like extreme home makeover shows
472
00:21:53.289 --> 00:21:56.609
where like, they always, they ask the kids what they're
473
00:21:56.650 --> 00:21:58.809
into and then they'll say one thing and then they'll
474
00:21:58.849 --> 00:22:00.710
turn the room and like, they'll go, I kind of
475
00:22:00.730 --> 00:22:03.410
like horses and then they'll run with it and they'll
476
00:22:03.430 --> 00:22:05.529
turn the bedroom into like a barn. And the kid's
477
00:22:05.630 --> 00:22:08.690
always like, okay, I don't know if I'm that into horses.
478
00:22:09.829 --> 00:22:10.109
Yeah.
479
00:22:11.109 --> 00:22:13.049
Maybe I'll redo your house. You tell me what you're
480
00:22:13.089 --> 00:22:15.970
into and then I'll surprise you with Zoltar.
481
00:22:17.029 --> 00:22:20.210
Yeah. Stephanie wouldn't, I wouldn't fly with her. She's not
482
00:22:20.309 --> 00:22:24.069
chill with what is in the house. So I don't,
483
00:22:24.710 --> 00:22:29.319
I know right away Zoltar wouldn't fly. Or any surprises.
484
00:22:29.779 --> 00:22:30.980
Yeah, okay.
485
00:22:31.019 --> 00:22:35.319
Not one surprise will fly. I mean, to be fair,
486
00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:37.380
I don't know that I'd want Zoltar in the house.
487
00:22:37.779 --> 00:22:39.819
Yeah, that's fair. Maximum might be into him.
488
00:22:40.259 --> 00:22:43.740
Yeah, I think for sure. But maybe you could surprise
489
00:22:43.809 --> 00:22:46.369
them and put one in there. Well, they each have
490
00:22:46.390 --> 00:22:47.809
their own room.
491
00:22:47.869 --> 00:22:49.630
That's two full-size Zoltars.
492
00:22:50.250 --> 00:22:54.960
Mm-hmm. That's great. Should we get into our question?
493
00:22:54.980 --> 00:22:55.049
Yes.
494
00:22:55.539 --> 00:22:59.700
Let's do it. I'm really excited about today's question asker.
495
00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:01.420
I feel like this has been a long time coming
496
00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:04.819
because this is a friend of the pod, Alison Brie. Oh,
497
00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:08.940
I already gave away her name, but today's question.
498
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:09.420
Still a friend.
499
00:23:09.700 --> 00:23:10.730
Still a friend.
500
00:23:10.750 --> 00:23:13.349
Still Alison Brie. This is a handsome pod and it's
501
00:23:14.289 --> 00:23:15.589
really awesome.
502
00:23:16.099 --> 00:23:19.859
She's the best. And she's an actor, writer, producer, best
503
00:23:19.900 --> 00:23:22.559
known for her starring roles on Mad Men and Community.
504
00:23:23.180 --> 00:23:25.460
She was nominated for a Golden Globe for playing Ruth
505
00:23:25.640 --> 00:23:28.809
on Glow and has appeared in films like Somebody I
506
00:23:28.869 --> 00:23:31.630
Used to Know and Promising Young Woman and her new
507
00:23:31.650 --> 00:23:36.670
movie with her husband, Dave Franco, Together, which is apparently
508
00:23:36.769 --> 00:23:39.130
so terrifying and I can't wait to see it. Alison
509
00:23:39.190 --> 00:23:41.829
Brie is asking today's question. Nice.
510
00:23:41.849 --> 00:23:44.769
Nice. Hi, handsomes.
511
00:23:45.170 --> 00:23:49.210
Alison Brie here. Huge fan.
512
00:23:49.730 --> 00:23:54.819
Tig, Mae, Fortune, big fan of all three of you.
513
00:23:54.960 --> 00:23:56.779
Huge fan of the pod. Okay.
514
00:23:57.240 --> 00:23:57.960
This is Otis.
515
00:23:58.460 --> 00:24:04.049
My question is, was there ever a time in your
516
00:24:04.430 --> 00:24:12.579
life where you... consciously decided to try on a different
517
00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:13.960
personality and.
518
00:24:16.339 --> 00:24:17.420
How did it go?
519
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:19.140
I'll give you an example.
520
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:21.039
That's not my answer, which is that a friend of
521
00:24:21.079 --> 00:24:24.619
mine in high school switched schools, um, like sophomore year.
522
00:24:25.299 --> 00:24:27.819
And at the other school, she went by her middle
523
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:31.359
name and just had like a totally different personality. And
524
00:24:31.380 --> 00:24:33.619
then when she left that school, she just went back
525
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:39.119
to using her regular name, her first name. Um, Have
526
00:24:39.140 --> 00:24:40.519
you ever done anything like that?
527
00:24:41.140 --> 00:24:41.759
And how'd it go?
528
00:24:42.579 --> 00:24:47.890
First of all, I did not realize that Alison Brie
529
00:24:47.930 --> 00:24:49.549
was going to be a part of Kitty City.
530
00:24:49.970 --> 00:24:55.549
Yeah, she's a Kitty City gal. Otis. Otis was really
531
00:24:55.569 --> 00:24:57.410
getting in there. I know.
532
00:24:57.930 --> 00:25:02.339
And I loved her attention to Otis when he came
533
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:04.720
in for kisses when she was mid-question.
534
00:25:05.549 --> 00:25:09.569
I mean, is that normal cat behavior? I thought they
535
00:25:09.609 --> 00:25:10.970
were more standoffish.
536
00:25:11.490 --> 00:25:16.589
They can be standoffish, but man, can they be snuggly, lovey-dovey.
537
00:25:17.450 --> 00:25:22.450
And all three of our cats are very standoffish and lovey-dovey.
538
00:25:22.730 --> 00:25:24.109
I've never had a cat.
539
00:25:24.630 --> 00:25:27.650
Otis had like almost a dog vibe. That's kind of
540
00:25:27.690 --> 00:25:31.039
a dog name, Otis. And then, yeah, he was, yeah.
541
00:25:31.779 --> 00:25:36.329
I love that question because I'm constantly... paranoid that I'm
542
00:25:36.789 --> 00:25:41.670
accidentally changing my personality. Like I feel like I have
543
00:25:41.710 --> 00:25:44.349
a loose grip on my personality and I'm up for
544
00:25:44.390 --> 00:25:45.390
it changing.
545
00:25:45.549 --> 00:25:49.200
It's sort of, it's fully influenced.
546
00:25:50.180 --> 00:25:52.519
Not as much anymore, but definitely as a teenager.
547
00:25:52.619 --> 00:25:53.519
Oh my God.
548
00:25:53.539 --> 00:25:57.240
Like, and really similar experience was I would go to
549
00:25:57.539 --> 00:26:00.480
summer camp every summer and I'd kind of decide who
550
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:02.380
I was going to be or see when I got there,
551
00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:06.730
like what would be most useful socially. And I think
552
00:26:06.769 --> 00:26:08.319
I've said this on the pod, but I went to
553
00:26:08.380 --> 00:26:11.539
camp one summer and I go, yeah, I may, but
554
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:16.640
everybody calls me maple sugar. And everyone's like, no, they don't.
555
00:26:17.099 --> 00:26:20.720
I'm like, no one called me that and it didn't
556
00:26:20.779 --> 00:26:24.519
catch on. And then I was always acting really tortured
557
00:26:24.579 --> 00:26:27.039
and kind of mysterious and like, yeah, I got some
558
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:28.380
stuff going on back home.
559
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:32.480
And wait, what made you think maple sugar?
560
00:26:33.589 --> 00:26:33.910
Sugar?
561
00:26:34.349 --> 00:26:38.130
What'd you say? Maple syrup? Maple sugar. Maple sugar was cool?
562
00:26:38.150 --> 00:26:41.940
I think because May Pearl is my first name.
563
00:26:42.200 --> 00:26:44.819
Yes, which I love. Thanks.
564
00:26:45.339 --> 00:26:48.220
I think it was because it was middle school. So
565
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:50.779
it was just in the two year period where I
566
00:26:50.779 --> 00:26:53.240
had long hair, the only time in my life. And
567
00:26:53.259 --> 00:26:56.079
I think I was keenly aware that I I was
568
00:26:56.400 --> 00:26:59.309
not feminine enough. Like, and all these cool girls were
569
00:26:59.410 --> 00:27:02.230
in my cabin and I thought maple sugar sounds kind
570
00:27:02.250 --> 00:27:05.210
of like a cool femme name. Like I would maybe
571
00:27:05.269 --> 00:27:08.690
be a cheerleader or something. And I did not.
572
00:27:08.470 --> 00:27:10.140
Give it up for maple sugar.
573
00:27:10.180 --> 00:27:15.000
Y'all it's such a long nickname too.
574
00:27:15.019 --> 00:27:16.680
Like, It's like a drag name.
575
00:27:16.700 --> 00:27:21.380
Yeah, instead of my three-letter name, they call me this sentence.
576
00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:26.579
Yeah. You think you were like telling people you had
577
00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:28.380
a lot of stuff going on back home, hoping they
578
00:27:28.420 --> 00:27:31.589
would be like, what's going on? Tell us like an
579
00:27:31.640 --> 00:27:32.430
attention thing.
580
00:27:32.450 --> 00:27:35.170
Would you tell them what was going on or would
581
00:27:35.190 --> 00:27:37.410
you make up like, well, my dad's a bandit?
582
00:27:38.299 --> 00:27:41.259
And I think I did lie quite a bit in
583
00:27:41.859 --> 00:27:44.680
around that time, like middle school era. Like I definitely
584
00:27:44.700 --> 00:27:48.380
had a fake boyfriend. And but it was a don't
585
00:27:48.420 --> 00:27:51.730
we all don't we all. It was like it was
586
00:27:51.750 --> 00:27:54.069
this friend of mine, Cliff Cardinal. He wrote me a
587
00:27:54.170 --> 00:27:57.490
letter at camp and then I decided to pretend. pretend
588
00:27:57.569 --> 00:28:00.029
that the letter was like my from he was just
589
00:28:00.069 --> 00:28:02.190
my friend like I had a crush on him yeah
590
00:28:02.210 --> 00:28:04.289
and I pretended it was like there's some stuff going
591
00:28:04.309 --> 00:28:06.470
on with my boyfriend like he's having a tough time
592
00:28:06.509 --> 00:28:08.410
and I wouldn't let anyone read the letter yeah you
593
00:28:09.279 --> 00:28:13.920
guys would not believe what is in this yeah and
594
00:28:13.940 --> 00:28:16.000
then burning it really quick so no.
595
00:28:15.980 --> 00:28:20.200
One can read it it's very private don't even ask
596
00:28:20.539 --> 00:28:21.180
and the letter was.
597
00:28:21.140 --> 00:28:22.819
Like hey bro hope you're having a good time yeah
598
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.279
What about you guys? Like I take, I feel like
599
00:28:29.299 --> 00:28:34.529
you were genuinely to your core that, that cowboy person.
600
00:28:34.549 --> 00:28:36.970
So you weren't, it wasn't, it wasn't an affectation.
601
00:28:36.990 --> 00:28:41.130
No, I mean, I definitely leaned more into it and
602
00:28:41.349 --> 00:28:46.859
you know, I, I was, I was a little rebel, um,
603
00:28:47.619 --> 00:28:50.500
chip on my shoulder. I've, you know, I'm still working
604
00:28:50.519 --> 00:28:53.539
through all of it as an adult. You gotta have your,
605
00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:57.140
you have to have your little shell to protect you
606
00:28:57.279 --> 00:29:01.660
and use your, whatever personality, part of your personality to
607
00:29:01.759 --> 00:29:06.630
hide everything. So, um, yeah, but I, I was really,
608
00:29:06.769 --> 00:29:09.930
you know, the kid that was off in the woods
609
00:29:10.009 --> 00:29:13.930
and in the creek and smoking and failing and, um,
610
00:29:14.089 --> 00:29:16.329
sneaking out of the house and doing all that, you know,
611
00:29:16.390 --> 00:29:20.190
driving around in the car without, license when I could
612
00:29:20.210 --> 00:29:23.730
barely look over the steering wheel. Like that is all factual.
613
00:29:23.869 --> 00:29:26.319
I have many people that can back up all of
614
00:29:26.460 --> 00:29:32.180
this information about me. But I would say like on
615
00:29:32.220 --> 00:29:37.529
an unfortunate kind of like really unfortunate level, the times
616
00:29:37.569 --> 00:29:41.160
that I have changed my personality has been when I've
617
00:29:41.259 --> 00:29:46.420
felt fearful, you know, in like a public bathroom or something,
618
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:51.400
you know, you get like weird looks or, you know,
619
00:29:51.420 --> 00:29:53.859
how do you, who are you? How do you identify?
620
00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:57.210
And I've noticed myself sometimes trying to like, fem it
621
00:29:57.299 --> 00:29:59.519
up a little bit when I go in the bathroom,
622
00:29:59.539 --> 00:30:03.039
you know? Um, and then I just think, God, it's
623
00:30:03.220 --> 00:30:07.160
so pathetic that, that I would have to, uh, to.
624
00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:10.400
Do that. Yeah.
625
00:30:10.420 --> 00:30:15.119
So, um, no real funny story there, but, um, but yeah,
626
00:30:15.160 --> 00:30:17.789
that's really the, the time that I, I, I notice
627
00:30:17.829 --> 00:30:19.869
it the most. And, and that's a point that I
628
00:30:19.910 --> 00:30:22.710
always use to people that, you know, any sort of
629
00:30:23.569 --> 00:30:29.049
confusion somebody has around um trans people or non-binary people
630
00:30:29.869 --> 00:30:30.769
it's like.
631
00:30:30.869 --> 00:30:34.490
It ends up policing all all women the whole everybody
632
00:30:34.509 --> 00:30:35.410
like cis women as.
633
00:30:35.359 --> 00:30:41.539
Well everybody everybody you know and so yeah it's it's
634
00:30:41.579 --> 00:30:45.900
just a weird little moment in life i'm like excuse
635
00:30:45.940 --> 00:30:47.480
me excuse me.
636
00:30:47.420 --> 00:30:50.940
I'm just trying to get in the stall i just
637
00:30:50.980 --> 00:30:51.779
have to go.
638
00:30:51.660 --> 00:30:56.069
Pee pee I can't believe I didn't wear my dress
639
00:30:56.130 --> 00:30:59.559
today because it'd be so much easier to just fling
640
00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:00.880
that thing up in the air.
641
00:31:01.759 --> 00:31:04.900
I've been called sir in several bathrooms and I'm like, really?
642
00:31:05.700 --> 00:31:09.200
You get called sir? Yeah. I've had a woman once
643
00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:11.799
in an airport bathroom be like, this is the women's restroom.
644
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:14.329
I'm like, yep. I know.
645
00:31:14.369 --> 00:31:16.349
I've said the same thing. I'm like, oh, that works
646
00:31:16.430 --> 00:31:17.190
out perfectly.
647
00:31:17.250 --> 00:31:17.569
Yeah.
648
00:31:18.089 --> 00:31:22.950
Yeah, it always feels like a minefield to me, constantly
649
00:31:23.049 --> 00:31:26.069
on guard. Did you guys ever, when you first started
650
00:31:26.170 --> 00:31:29.380
comedy and you're in love with comedy and you're in
651
00:31:29.490 --> 00:31:33.039
green rooms with more experienced comedians, try to adopt the
652
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:37.299
persona of a comedian almost? Like, yeah, good set. Yeah,
653
00:31:37.319 --> 00:31:40.299
I like the tag. You know what I mean? I
654
00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:43.160
was so excited to be part of that community that
655
00:31:43.220 --> 00:31:46.039
I'm sure I was like, you know, with my little
656
00:31:46.099 --> 00:31:47.380
notebook and trying to.
657
00:31:47.990 --> 00:31:51.230
And then dropping your voice a little like, yeah, yeah, yeah, nice, nice, sweet.
658
00:31:51.269 --> 00:31:52.369
Yeah, yeah.
659
00:31:52.430 --> 00:31:53.710
I don't know.
660
00:31:53.730 --> 00:31:54.450
I don't know.
661
00:31:55.170 --> 00:31:58.130
That doesn't feel familiar. It doesn't feel as familiar as
662
00:31:58.190 --> 00:32:01.359
me saying, excuse me, I just have to get a
663
00:32:01.380 --> 00:32:02.079
tampon out.
664
00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:02.980
Of my purse.
665
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:03.880
Yeah.
666
00:32:04.440 --> 00:32:05.859
I got to plug my cooter.
667
00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:08.200
I got to plug my cooter.
668
00:32:08.220 --> 00:32:13.680
You hear that in a stall in the bathroom. I
669
00:32:14.140 --> 00:32:15.799
got to plug my cooter.
670
00:32:21.259 --> 00:32:23.559
Fortune, what about going to college after living in a
671
00:32:23.619 --> 00:32:28.140
small town? Like that's a chance to be a different person.
672
00:32:28.559 --> 00:32:33.170
Yeah, I was like cognizant of like not changing too
673
00:32:33.230 --> 00:32:38.910
much because my mom, she listens to this. She's like, oh,
674
00:32:39.049 --> 00:32:42.769
why are you bringing this up? But my mom used to,
675
00:32:43.109 --> 00:32:46.650
back in the day, whenever she would, after my parents divorced,
676
00:32:47.269 --> 00:32:51.359
she went through a couple of relationships. And in those relationships,
677
00:32:51.420 --> 00:32:59.200
she significantly changed to be who she thought that those
678
00:32:59.289 --> 00:33:02.690
particular men wanted her to be. So that always bugged
679
00:33:02.750 --> 00:33:07.410
me because I was just, I didn't understand it. I
680
00:33:07.430 --> 00:33:10.130
was young and I was like, why are you being
681
00:33:10.170 --> 00:33:14.539
somebody you're not? And in the most extreme version of that,
682
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:18.329
one was, he was very conservative. I'd talked about this
683
00:33:18.410 --> 00:33:21.210
in my sweet and salty special where he just like
684
00:33:21.250 --> 00:33:23.559
my family had gone to Hooters her whole life. And
685
00:33:23.650 --> 00:33:27.380
he just was like, Oh yeah. Yeah. Not into that stuff.
686
00:33:27.480 --> 00:33:31.440
And she was like, I have never been to Hooters
687
00:33:31.940 --> 00:33:32.619
in front of him.
688
00:33:32.920 --> 00:33:35.660
And, um, I have been to Cooters.
689
00:33:37.740 --> 00:33:40.190
And even though that story is very funny, it's based
690
00:33:40.470 --> 00:33:44.109
on her completely changing for this person.
691
00:33:44.130 --> 00:33:45.200
Um, Yeah.
692
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:47.000
So I always had that in the back of my
693
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:52.980
head of like not veering too far off. But, you know,
694
00:33:53.000 --> 00:33:55.759
when you're young, you're still kind of trying to find yourself.
695
00:33:56.529 --> 00:33:58.990
So you have to sort of try on different hats
696
00:33:59.109 --> 00:34:05.450
to see like, well, who am I? And so younger days,
697
00:34:05.529 --> 00:34:09.409
sports was a big part of my personality. But then
698
00:34:09.449 --> 00:34:11.099
in college, I had this weird thing. I hung out
699
00:34:11.139 --> 00:34:15.480
with a lot of church going people. And so I
700
00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:18.440
kind of tried that on for a while. Like, oh,
701
00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:25.590
I'm a church gal. And yeah, that was probably the most,
702
00:34:25.610 --> 00:34:29.469
the biggest swing away from my personality.
703
00:34:30.190 --> 00:34:31.829
But you do love the Lord, right?
704
00:34:31.909 --> 00:34:33.650
I love the Lord.
705
00:34:36.869 --> 00:34:38.409
You're just looking for community, right?
706
00:34:38.429 --> 00:34:41.690
I think I was looking for community. And my family
707
00:34:41.730 --> 00:34:45.329
was pretty fractured at the time. My grandmother had just
708
00:34:45.389 --> 00:34:50.630
passed and I was a bit lost. So my grandmother
709
00:34:50.670 --> 00:34:53.360
died the day after I moved into college. So I
710
00:34:53.389 --> 00:34:59.500
was experiencing this brand new school. I didn't know anybody.
711
00:34:59.519 --> 00:35:04.340
I was lost. I was sad. And so those are
712
00:35:04.360 --> 00:35:08.119
the times when you're the most susceptible to anything. influence.
713
00:35:08.539 --> 00:35:11.960
And so I met some really great people, um, who
714
00:35:11.980 --> 00:35:14.320
were religious and kind of was like, well, let me
715
00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:16.789
see what they're doing. I like hanging out with them
716
00:35:16.809 --> 00:35:20.230
and their church was all about family and stuff. And
717
00:35:20.269 --> 00:35:25.989
I think it like made me want family and crave, um, that.
718
00:35:26.090 --> 00:35:28.179
And so I thought, well, if I do that, then
719
00:35:28.260 --> 00:35:30.340
I can have, I can create a family for myself
720
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:34.719
one day and just, you know, eventually realized that, oh,
721
00:35:34.760 --> 00:35:39.769
this is not me at all. Um, but, uh, yeah.
722
00:35:39.809 --> 00:35:43.469
And then I tried like theater, um, in college too.
723
00:35:43.590 --> 00:35:43.670
And.
724
00:35:44.340 --> 00:35:47.510
Maybe I'm a theater kid and I liked it, but
725
00:35:47.610 --> 00:35:50.449
it wasn't in, in the irony is that I act now,
726
00:35:50.510 --> 00:35:54.989
but I'm not a theater kid. Um, I feel like.
727
00:35:54.829 --> 00:35:57.489
You got some theater kid and you like a musical.
728
00:35:57.510 --> 00:36:01.369
I love a musical dramatic, like, Oh, right.
729
00:36:01.489 --> 00:36:01.829
Yeah.
730
00:36:01.849 --> 00:36:02.269
Yeah. Yeah.
731
00:36:02.309 --> 00:36:07.489
Like expressing yourself and what in big ways. I'm not
732
00:36:07.550 --> 00:36:11.139
quite that. Um, And so then when I moved to,
733
00:36:11.280 --> 00:36:12.820
when I eventually moved to LA, it was when I
734
00:36:12.889 --> 00:36:17.730
came out, I think, um, was like anything up until
735
00:36:17.769 --> 00:36:20.289
coming out was like, I'm sort of blown with the
736
00:36:20.349 --> 00:36:20.869
wind here.
737
00:36:20.889 --> 00:36:21.690
Yeah.
738
00:36:21.949 --> 00:36:25.909
I come out and then I'm like, Oh, I know,
739
00:36:25.929 --> 00:36:29.530
I know who I am. And I'm, and it just
740
00:36:29.610 --> 00:36:33.739
set me on this journey of like, like being so
741
00:36:33.780 --> 00:36:37.159
much more comfortable in my own skin, doing what I
742
00:36:37.199 --> 00:36:41.909
wanted to do, not trying to, fit in elsewhere or,
743
00:36:42.639 --> 00:36:45.000
you know, it just, that was the thing that really
744
00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:46.559
set me on my path.
745
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:48.179
Took off your bonnet.
746
00:36:49.039 --> 00:36:50.980
Took off my, and then, and I would say right
747
00:36:51.239 --> 00:36:54.980
in this present day time, going through all the changes
748
00:36:55.019 --> 00:36:57.210
I'm going through, the one thing I've realized is I
749
00:36:57.329 --> 00:37:01.730
know myself better than I ever have. And I am
750
00:37:01.829 --> 00:37:06.349
so much clearer on what I want than I've ever been.
751
00:37:07.449 --> 00:37:12.380
I guess it keeps changing your whole life till you croak, right? Yeah,
752
00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:17.079
and that fluidity is so important. Yeah. When you started
753
00:37:17.199 --> 00:37:21.210
doing comedy, did you guys try different, like I feel
754
00:37:21.230 --> 00:37:24.130
like I just impersonated other comedians sometimes if I got
755
00:37:24.170 --> 00:37:28.280
excited about it, like trying to be like, Bill Hicks
756
00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:30.960
or whatever when I was like 14. And that's like,
757
00:37:31.000 --> 00:37:32.019
that's not me.
758
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:34.340
Oh my gosh. Can you get me some video of
759
00:37:34.400 --> 00:37:37.989
you 14 doing your best Bill Hicks?
760
00:37:38.349 --> 00:37:41.110
Well, I used to smoke cigarettes on stage because you
761
00:37:41.130 --> 00:37:42.030
could still do that.
762
00:37:42.070 --> 00:37:43.190
When you were 14?
763
00:37:43.190 --> 00:37:43.510
Yes.
764
00:37:43.610 --> 00:37:45.630
And I did one time get booed off stage.
765
00:37:45.989 --> 00:37:48.590
And do you have footage of this? Because I'm going
766
00:37:48.650 --> 00:37:49.369
to need to see it.
767
00:37:49.409 --> 00:37:52.219
You got booed off stage because they didn't like you smoking?
768
00:37:52.239 --> 00:37:54.739
It was a New Year's Eve show. I was 16
769
00:37:54.739 --> 00:37:58.860
and me and my boyfriend at the time did like
770
00:37:58.980 --> 00:38:02.400
two person stand up. He, he was much older. We
771
00:38:02.440 --> 00:38:04.760
said we were siblings. It was weird. But anyway, we
772
00:38:05.030 --> 00:38:08.829
were smoking and we were just very like misanthropic and negative.
773
00:38:08.869 --> 00:38:12.760
And we didn't realize that people had for this $ 100
774
00:38:12.699 --> 00:38:15.219
for this New Year's Eve gala. And everyone was making
775
00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:17.519
a real effort. And we'd barely prepared anything. And we
776
00:38:17.539 --> 00:38:20.219
were smoking. We thought we were so cool. And everyone
777
00:38:20.239 --> 00:38:23.820
was like, why is this child smoking? And so they
778
00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:28.170
started going, nah, enough. And they were right. They were like, enough.
779
00:38:28.849 --> 00:38:34.150
First of all, why aren't children smoking? As a child,
780
00:38:34.349 --> 00:38:37.050
I don't know how. Like we were watching a movie
781
00:38:37.090 --> 00:38:40.119
the other night with Max and Finn. And there was
782
00:38:40.980 --> 00:38:44.579
chewing tobacco that some of the kids in the movie
783
00:38:44.599 --> 00:38:47.400
were chewing. And Max and Fit are like, what is
784
00:38:47.460 --> 00:38:53.550
chewing tobacco? They're nine. And I was chewing tobacco. I
785
00:38:53.809 --> 00:38:57.230
was dipping. I was smoking. If I couldn't get my
786
00:38:57.289 --> 00:39:00.329
hands on any of that stuff, I would roll coffee
787
00:39:00.369 --> 00:39:03.730
grounds and typing paper. I was just like, how.
788
00:39:04.960 --> 00:39:05.820
On earth.
789
00:39:06.019 --> 00:39:09.679
I'm truly looking at them like they are aliens. You
790
00:39:09.739 --> 00:39:11.659
don't know what chewing tobacco is?
791
00:39:12.219 --> 00:39:15.719
But these younger generations are much more pure than we were,
792
00:39:15.780 --> 00:39:19.260
I think. It's not in movies as much. Like, what
793
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:21.230
were you watching? The Sandlot Kids or something?
794
00:39:21.250 --> 00:39:23.369
Yeah, we were watching Sandlot. Yeah.
795
00:39:23.429 --> 00:39:23.929
Oh, wicked.
796
00:39:23.989 --> 00:39:24.849
I want to rewatch it.
797
00:39:24.869 --> 00:39:28.130
I used to watch the Sandlot back in the day. Yeah.
798
00:39:28.449 --> 00:39:32.500
But they're just like... and they have questions about cigarettes.
799
00:39:32.579 --> 00:39:35.739
And I'm like, yeah, I guess I don't know where
800
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:39.139
they would have ever run off and experimented with anything
801
00:39:39.199 --> 00:39:44.230
like that. But because my parents were Certainly not keeping
802
00:39:44.250 --> 00:39:45.869
an eye on me.
803
00:39:45.969 --> 00:39:48.769
But cigarettes are way more taboo now than back then.
804
00:39:48.829 --> 00:39:51.590
Back then I felt like people just smoked all the time.
805
00:39:51.710 --> 00:39:55.510
It was taboo for me to be eight smoking cigarettes.
806
00:39:55.570 --> 00:39:56.150
Well, eight.
807
00:39:56.250 --> 00:39:57.130
Yeah.
808
00:39:57.929 --> 00:39:59.309
I mean, that's wild.
809
00:39:59.710 --> 00:40:03.070
My parents smoked in the house and yeah, it was very,
810
00:40:03.809 --> 00:40:05.429
it was, I mean, it was every restaurant you go
811
00:40:05.489 --> 00:40:06.889
to and yeah.
812
00:40:08.190 --> 00:40:09.550
I did not miss those days.
813
00:40:09.949 --> 00:40:12.989
Did you always have the same, style on stage or
814
00:40:13.050 --> 00:40:15.769
in the beginning where you like, Hey everybody, what's up?
815
00:40:15.869 --> 00:40:18.280
I'm take, I gotta, I can't imagine that.
816
00:40:18.929 --> 00:40:25.579
Yeah. I, I feel like, I mean, I was so
817
00:40:25.739 --> 00:40:32.780
influenced by Paula Poundstone. I always, I love Paula Poundstone's
818
00:40:32.840 --> 00:40:39.789
ability to write just such a solid, silly joke and,
819
00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:44.579
And then also be able to do the most tremendous
820
00:40:44.659 --> 00:40:45.420
crowd interaction.
821
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:47.239
All the crowd work is unbelievable.
822
00:40:47.300 --> 00:40:51.190
I mean, unreal. And I mean, she was the one
823
00:40:51.269 --> 00:40:54.869
comedian I would always go see. I would never miss
824
00:40:54.929 --> 00:40:57.429
a Paula Poundstone concert, no matter where I lived, no
825
00:40:57.449 --> 00:40:58.550
matter how old I was.
826
00:40:58.809 --> 00:40:59.150
Really?
827
00:40:59.769 --> 00:41:06.119
Oh, yeah, absolutely. And she's just ridiculous. But that was
828
00:41:06.179 --> 00:41:10.860
my goal, was to be a good... storyteller, joke writer,
829
00:41:11.039 --> 00:41:14.460
and be able to interact with the audience. And I
830
00:41:14.500 --> 00:41:16.920
don't know that I ever felt like, oh, I'm just
831
00:41:16.940 --> 00:41:20.320
a carbon copy of Paula Poundstone. You know, I was
832
00:41:20.360 --> 00:41:23.690
never in like suspenders and a bow tie or anything
833
00:41:23.710 --> 00:41:27.900
like that, which I Thank God she's still wearing to
834
00:41:27.960 --> 00:41:28.519
this day.
835
00:41:28.539 --> 00:41:29.659
Amazing.
836
00:41:29.719 --> 00:41:33.260
She is Paula Poundstone.
837
00:41:33.079 --> 00:41:33.989
Through and through.
838
00:41:34.139 --> 00:41:35.929
She was born in suspenders.
839
00:41:36.300 --> 00:41:40.650
Oh, my God. This person is Paula Poundstone. I mean,
840
00:41:40.710 --> 00:41:42.769
her name says what she is.
841
00:41:44.170 --> 00:41:44.809
You know what I mean?
842
00:41:44.829 --> 00:41:47.010
Yeah, you've got to be a comedian.
843
00:41:47.090 --> 00:41:50.530
You are Paula Poundstone. This is Paula Poundstone. Anyway, you know,
844
00:41:50.630 --> 00:41:52.710
I certainly had moments.
845
00:41:52.769 --> 00:41:53.230
Like, I was very.
846
00:41:54.449 --> 00:42:03.449
in like more recent comedy influence, I certainly loved Mitch Hedberg. Yes.
847
00:42:03.849 --> 00:42:03.929
Yeah.
848
00:42:04.030 --> 00:42:07.650
I mean, you know, even though I wasn't dry and yeah,
849
00:42:07.670 --> 00:42:09.789
it just spoke to me. It definitely spoke to me.
850
00:42:09.809 --> 00:42:14.130
It takes confidence. I think to sit, to be okay
851
00:42:14.170 --> 00:42:17.010
with silence, to be slow like that. And so I
852
00:42:17.769 --> 00:42:19.380
feel like it would take it.
853
00:42:19.809 --> 00:42:20.150
Yeah.
854
00:42:20.570 --> 00:42:23.320
I'm still not there where I can do that, but like,
855
00:42:23.769 --> 00:42:26.070
did it take you a while to settle and to
856
00:42:26.130 --> 00:42:29.269
know you had the skill to like sit in that
857
00:42:29.289 --> 00:42:30.150
and then pull people.
858
00:42:30.090 --> 00:42:30.429
Out of it?
859
00:42:31.030 --> 00:42:33.449
Well, I think for myself, like as a comedian, all
860
00:42:33.489 --> 00:42:37.059
the different things I've tried from joke writing to storytelling,
861
00:42:37.179 --> 00:42:41.639
I've done prop stuff, not like in a traditional way
862
00:42:41.679 --> 00:42:46.480
of like, I roll out of, you know, a case of, yeah.
863
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:50.429
But I want to try everything. And then I feel
864
00:42:50.489 --> 00:42:54.260
like all of those roads that you go down, you still,
865
00:42:55.409 --> 00:42:58.329
even if it's such a leap from another type of comedy,
866
00:42:58.349 --> 00:43:01.489
you still find your voice in there. And I think
867
00:43:01.530 --> 00:43:04.170
that that's what I realized was every road I went down,
868
00:43:04.730 --> 00:43:07.110
here's my voice, here's my voice. So I can do
869
00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:08.090
whatever I want to do.
870
00:43:08.539 --> 00:43:11.500
You know what I liked? I just, I keep talking
871
00:43:11.519 --> 00:43:14.400
about it because I'm obsessed, but the Pee Wee Herman documentary,
872
00:43:14.420 --> 00:43:17.400
the Paul Rubens documentary, I didn't realize that Pee Wee
873
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:21.190
started as a character who was a, a a standup
874
00:43:21.269 --> 00:43:23.789
comedian who was doing it for the first time and
875
00:43:23.829 --> 00:43:26.570
showing and had props that were his toys. He was
876
00:43:26.590 --> 00:43:29.170
kind of like, almost like a child stand. So he
877
00:43:29.210 --> 00:43:31.269
was in the Peewee suit and he'd go out and,
878
00:43:31.679 --> 00:43:34.739
and do bad standup and pull out like, you know,
879
00:43:34.760 --> 00:43:37.300
a dinosaur toy and show the audience and stuff. But
880
00:43:37.380 --> 00:43:39.519
I love that, that that was the Genesis. Yeah.
881
00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:40.019
Yeah.
882
00:43:40.340 --> 00:43:42.000
I think he started at the groundlings.
883
00:43:42.380 --> 00:43:42.659
Yeah.
884
00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:44.280
You got to watch that doc.
885
00:43:44.579 --> 00:43:46.679
I'll have to check it out. I for sure want
886
00:43:46.699 --> 00:43:47.269
to see that.
887
00:43:47.630 --> 00:43:50.170
And by the way, when I was in Nantucket, multiple people,
888
00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:53.559
were coming up to me to talk about your doc.
889
00:43:53.940 --> 00:43:54.900
Oh really?
890
00:43:54.920 --> 00:43:57.099
Yeah. They were coming up going, Hey, I just saw
891
00:43:57.159 --> 00:44:00.639
Tig's doc and I wept throughout and I was like, great.
892
00:44:01.159 --> 00:44:01.579
Yeah.
893
00:44:01.820 --> 00:44:03.500
People are talking about it.
894
00:44:03.739 --> 00:44:05.880
You find that they, uh, Oh, the new, I was
895
00:44:05.900 --> 00:44:08.239
thinking of Tig. I was thinking. Oh yeah.
896
00:44:08.300 --> 00:44:10.679
No, the Andrea Gibson documentary. Gotcha.
897
00:44:11.079 --> 00:44:12.079
I want to see it.
898
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:14.719
You will. We're going to have a screening in LA
899
00:44:14.900 --> 00:44:19.500
and then Apple bought it. So we're all very excited
900
00:44:19.599 --> 00:44:22.760
that it's going to reach a wider audience, but it's man,
901
00:44:22.989 --> 00:44:28.090
is it life affirming? And it really, I say to everyone, you,
902
00:44:28.849 --> 00:44:31.610
it's impossible to not walk out of that theater and think,
903
00:44:31.929 --> 00:44:37.070
what have I been doing with my life? I mean, true,
904
00:44:37.110 --> 00:44:40.699
but like in the most inspiring, exciting way, Of course
905
00:44:40.739 --> 00:44:45.139
you have all these emotions about Andrea and, and their
906
00:44:45.179 --> 00:44:50.369
partner Meg and, and, um, all these intense deep, but
907
00:44:50.469 --> 00:44:54.230
also so, so many funny moments, but it's just so
908
00:44:54.269 --> 00:44:58.139
beautiful and it's just still killing it on the festival circuit.
909
00:44:58.199 --> 00:44:58.880
It's crazy.
910
00:44:59.039 --> 00:45:00.840
It's crazy, crazy, crazy. Yeah.
911
00:45:00.920 --> 00:45:04.820
Well, I'm really looking forward to, to seeing it. Yeah.
912
00:45:05.039 --> 00:45:08.980
Yeah. Thanks for bringing that up because I, I, Tell
913
00:45:09.019 --> 00:45:11.679
your friends if you've seen it because it's, it's really
914
00:45:11.719 --> 00:45:17.320
worth seeing and so much like so perfectly time for
915
00:45:17.340 --> 00:45:21.460
a big heaping pile of compassion in this world.
916
00:45:21.840 --> 00:45:22.260
Yes.
917
00:45:22.699 --> 00:45:26.179
Is what I've seen happen through this film.
918
00:45:26.480 --> 00:45:29.880
I kind of feel like, cause it is mainly teenagers
919
00:45:29.960 --> 00:45:32.820
and kids that are trying on different personalities like that.
920
00:45:33.059 --> 00:45:35.500
And I kind of feel like that's, that's a pretty
921
00:45:35.559 --> 00:45:40.260
healthy way to be. Cause it's, We're not our personalities
922
00:45:40.300 --> 00:45:43.110
like that is even if it's so authentic to you
923
00:45:43.179 --> 00:45:46.090
and not on purpose, it is sort of a performance
924
00:45:46.150 --> 00:45:50.110
or it's an accumulation of influences and experiences. And there
925
00:45:50.170 --> 00:45:54.070
is like a core. Anyway, I just think maybe we
926
00:45:54.110 --> 00:45:56.230
should all be a bit more fluid about our personalities.
927
00:45:56.269 --> 00:45:58.409
You could wake up tomorrow, brand new day. You go,
928
00:45:58.510 --> 00:46:01.900
I'm really sarcastic today or like I'm I'm going to
929
00:46:01.909 --> 00:46:03.030
be a ray of sunshine.
930
00:46:03.050 --> 00:46:06.559
Yeah. Yeah. Well, you don't really know how you feel
931
00:46:06.599 --> 00:46:09.340
about something or if you're into something unless you try it.
932
00:46:09.500 --> 00:46:14.429
So I'm always like, I always think, especially younger people, like,
933
00:46:14.510 --> 00:46:17.510
why not sign up for this thing or join this
934
00:46:17.590 --> 00:46:20.889
club or play that sport or be in that play? Like,
935
00:46:21.449 --> 00:46:22.369
give it a shot.
936
00:46:22.530 --> 00:46:27.050
And I stand by there is nothing better than finding
937
00:46:27.150 --> 00:46:30.269
out what you cannot stand and who you are not.
938
00:46:30.789 --> 00:46:34.429
Even more so than who you are. you know, like
939
00:46:34.650 --> 00:46:37.809
I love finding out the stuff I, I never want
940
00:46:37.829 --> 00:46:41.099
to do again, or I don't want to be in
941
00:46:41.179 --> 00:46:45.900
that world, you know, or whatever, whatever it is. I'm like,
942
00:46:46.059 --> 00:46:48.440
I love that as much as I love finding things
943
00:46:48.500 --> 00:46:50.940
that I, that make me happy. Yeah.
944
00:46:50.980 --> 00:46:54.489
We tell ourselves so young, we start telling ourselves stories
945
00:46:54.550 --> 00:46:57.269
about ourselves. Like I'm bad at math or like, I'm,
946
00:46:57.769 --> 00:47:00.409
you know, I'm funny or I'm, you know, and, and
947
00:47:00.449 --> 00:47:04.179
then that's like a little coffin for your self you
948
00:47:04.199 --> 00:47:05.599
know you gotta break out of it.
949
00:47:06.260 --> 00:47:10.239
I do stand by i am bad at math and
950
00:47:10.969 --> 00:47:13.369
my brain just oozes out of my ears as soon
951
00:47:13.409 --> 00:47:17.250
as i look at x plus y times the blah
952
00:47:17.369 --> 00:47:18.769
blah blah.
953
00:47:18.929 --> 00:47:21.550
Yeah blah blah you just get a handle on math
954
00:47:21.610 --> 00:47:24.449
in school and then they introduce letters and words to
955
00:47:24.530 --> 00:47:27.530
it and it's like it's not fair why are we yeah.
956
00:47:27.289 --> 00:47:32.469
Yeah And now my mom is being totally herself, but
957
00:47:32.570 --> 00:47:35.719
she has also been single for a very long time.
958
00:47:36.219 --> 00:47:38.960
There's something to be said for the single life in
959
00:47:39.000 --> 00:47:41.039
terms of really being yourself.
960
00:47:41.099 --> 00:47:41.659
Yeah.
961
00:47:42.079 --> 00:47:44.460
Has your mother ever gotten on apps to date?
962
00:47:45.280 --> 00:47:47.860
She did it back in the day. I think when
963
00:47:47.900 --> 00:47:52.699
she met her first boyfriend after divorce, it wasn't in
964
00:47:52.760 --> 00:47:56.070
an app, but you used to put ads in the newspaper. Wow.
965
00:47:57.039 --> 00:48:06.050
That's a dream. Yeah, no pictures, nothing. You're just looking
966
00:48:06.090 --> 00:48:10.230
at each other's grammar. But yeah, I believe they met
967
00:48:10.250 --> 00:48:10.670
that way.
968
00:48:10.690 --> 00:48:13.730
Didn't there used to be a thing where you leave
969
00:48:14.269 --> 00:48:19.039
a voicemail that's like, hi, I'm Mae. I like, you know, facts.
970
00:48:19.119 --> 00:48:21.159
I think maybe back in the day there was something
971
00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:22.380
like that. And wait a minute.
972
00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:22.500
What?
973
00:48:23.860 --> 00:48:24.219
Right.
974
00:48:24.360 --> 00:48:26.519
So people would put an ad in the paper and
975
00:48:26.539 --> 00:48:28.960
you don't have a clue what this person looks like. Yeah.
976
00:48:28.980 --> 00:48:29.039
No.
977
00:48:29.300 --> 00:48:32.519
You just show up and there is someone that likes
978
00:48:32.539 --> 00:48:37.090
pina coladas and getting caught in the rain. Yeah.
979
00:48:37.150 --> 00:48:42.309
When I first came out, Craigslist was super popular, especially,
980
00:48:42.369 --> 00:48:44.090
I don't know if it was just in LA, but
981
00:48:44.789 --> 00:48:48.960
everybody was on Craigslist at the time. And I found
982
00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:52.659
like a, soccer team and a softball league. I found
983
00:48:53.199 --> 00:48:56.099
Ultimate Frisbee. I'm still friends with some of the people
984
00:48:56.119 --> 00:49:01.260
I met during these Craigslist days. But I went on
985
00:49:01.300 --> 00:49:05.929
a couple dates via Craigslist ads and it was the
986
00:49:05.969 --> 00:49:07.170
no picture days.
987
00:49:07.980 --> 00:49:11.940
And was it shocking when you arrived?
988
00:49:12.260 --> 00:49:16.429
I mean, not one person was. It wasn't even about looks,
989
00:49:16.530 --> 00:49:20.599
but not one person was my type or had. anything
990
00:49:20.679 --> 00:49:23.139
in common I went on three.
991
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:25.920
Dates what a shot in the dark could not get.
992
00:49:25.860 --> 00:49:29.900
Out of all of them fast enough yeah and then
993
00:49:30.019 --> 00:49:32.159
I was like I'm not doing this.
994
00:49:32.059 --> 00:49:34.719
Again do you know what I think I'm remembering this
995
00:49:34.760 --> 00:49:38.690
story correctly but of course who knows but let's just
996
00:49:38.730 --> 00:49:42.510
assume I am You know, the comedian and writer, Jesse Klein.
997
00:49:42.530 --> 00:49:44.349
Oh, actually. Okay.
998
00:49:44.409 --> 00:49:49.030
She's so funny, but she, she, um, I ran into her.
999
00:49:49.050 --> 00:49:52.570
I can't remember where I ran into her, but this
1000
00:49:52.610 --> 00:49:58.019
was several years ago. She saw a guy in like
1001
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:01.940
an airport or a grocery store or something. Probably, you know,
1002
00:50:02.099 --> 00:50:03.860
probably an airport. I think they were running to their
1003
00:50:03.880 --> 00:50:09.199
flights and she thought to herself, what if he saw
1004
00:50:09.300 --> 00:50:12.190
me And felt the same because she thought she saw
1005
00:50:12.210 --> 00:50:16.929
a little some look in each other's eye type thing.
1006
00:50:16.949 --> 00:50:19.989
He put an ad in the paper and they reconnected.
1007
00:50:20.309 --> 00:50:21.230
No.
1008
00:50:21.289 --> 00:50:21.650
Yes.
1009
00:50:22.230 --> 00:50:28.820
Yes. Yes. This is an actual story. And they weren't
1010
00:50:28.880 --> 00:50:32.019
a match ultimately. I think he was like a tennis player.
1011
00:50:32.239 --> 00:50:34.400
I can't believe I remember the details. I was so
1012
00:50:34.460 --> 00:50:40.800
blown away because they did not talk. Wow. They just glanced.
1013
00:50:40.820 --> 00:50:42.519
You know the actor Coleman Domingo?
1014
00:50:43.380 --> 00:50:44.139
Yeah.
1015
00:50:44.500 --> 00:50:46.820
He has been with his husband now, I think, like
1016
00:50:46.820 --> 00:50:50.639
14 years. They walked past each other on a street
1017
00:50:51.139 --> 00:50:54.409
and kind of both clocked each other and did, I
1018
00:50:54.429 --> 00:50:57.849
don't know, maybe it was Craigslist. One of those sites,
1019
00:50:57.969 --> 00:51:02.829
they put a missed connection in there and somehow they
1020
00:51:03.190 --> 00:51:08.559
saw it and got together. Wow. I mean, it's like
1021
00:51:08.760 --> 00:51:11.440
a needle in a haystack. That's like crazy.
1022
00:51:11.840 --> 00:51:15.260
We got to bring that back, the missed connections. There
1023
00:51:15.280 --> 00:51:16.079
must be still a thing.
1024
00:51:16.099 --> 00:51:18.059
Boy, have we gotten off track here.
1025
00:51:18.199 --> 00:51:20.239
There's nowhere for missed, I don't know where people go
1026
00:51:20.260 --> 00:51:21.480
for missed connections now.
1027
00:51:21.840 --> 00:51:22.340
There's no place.
1028
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:23.679
There has to be a website or something.
1029
00:51:23.719 --> 00:51:26.849
Yeah, yeah. But that was a big thing on Craigslist, too,
1030
00:51:26.869 --> 00:51:29.070
was the whole Miss Connections page.
1031
00:51:29.090 --> 00:51:32.070
Let's start a handsome Miss Connection website.
1032
00:51:32.250 --> 00:51:33.010
There we are.
1033
00:51:33.090 --> 00:51:33.809
We found it.
1034
00:51:34.070 --> 00:51:36.489
Oh, no. Another thing on the list that I don't
1035
00:51:36.510 --> 00:51:37.909
know if we're going to get to it.
1036
00:51:39.309 --> 00:51:41.489
Well, should we hear what Allison has to say, even
1037
00:51:41.510 --> 00:51:45.179
though we went so far away? That's what we do here.
1038
00:51:45.239 --> 00:51:47.699
That is what we do here. That is the business
1039
00:51:47.739 --> 00:51:51.469
we are in. Allison, tell us. Tell us.
1040
00:51:52.130 --> 00:51:55.440
Yeah, I've honestly probably done that a bunch. But a
1041
00:51:55.480 --> 00:52:00.039
time that comes to mind is when I was in college.
1042
00:52:00.940 --> 00:52:05.260
I did a semester abroad in Glasgow, Scotland. So I
1043
00:52:05.579 --> 00:52:08.789
went to a really small school, CalArts. It was super
1044
00:52:08.869 --> 00:52:15.730
incestuous and gossipy. And when I did this semester abroad
1045
00:52:15.849 --> 00:52:19.389
at an even smaller school, the Royal Scottish Academy of
1046
00:52:19.449 --> 00:52:25.130
Music and Drama, I made a conscious decision to just
1047
00:52:25.250 --> 00:52:31.989
have a more free personality, I guess. I just didn't
1048
00:52:32.090 --> 00:52:36.849
want to be self-conscious in any way. And I figured,
1049
00:52:36.869 --> 00:52:40.099
you know, I'm just going to, you know, I'm just
1050
00:52:40.139 --> 00:52:41.559
going to be going to school with these people for
1051
00:52:41.599 --> 00:52:42.940
like three to four months.
1052
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:44.139
Who cares?
1053
00:52:44.199 --> 00:52:47.199
Like, what if I got to lose? I should just
1054
00:52:47.300 --> 00:52:52.510
be like the freest version of of myself. And, um,
1055
00:52:53.289 --> 00:52:57.190
so I did, I just would like the whole time
1056
00:52:57.250 --> 00:53:01.250
I was in Glasgow, Scotland, I was having honestly the
1057
00:53:01.409 --> 00:53:05.929
best time and, and almost being like my truest self
1058
00:53:06.190 --> 00:53:09.610
literally would, you know, with headphones in, I would dance
1059
00:53:09.710 --> 00:53:15.469
down the streets, just dancing down the sidewalks. And in class,
1060
00:53:15.510 --> 00:53:21.909
I was always like the first person to, uh, Oh.
1061
00:53:21.949 --> 00:53:22.329
My God.
1062
00:53:22.409 --> 00:53:25.190
Maxie wants to be involved in this question as well.
1063
00:53:25.510 --> 00:53:31.659
The first person to volunteer to try something like improvised capoeira,
1064
00:53:32.059 --> 00:53:36.800
just like put me in coach, like game for anything.
1065
00:53:36.820 --> 00:53:39.619
And the students there were like, are you like this
1066
00:53:39.739 --> 00:53:43.940
all the time? And I was like, no, not really.
1067
00:53:44.039 --> 00:53:46.309
But once I did it.
1068
00:53:46.309 --> 00:53:47.090
This semester.
1069
00:53:47.190 --> 00:53:50.969
I would say the effect it had was... that I
1070
00:53:51.030 --> 00:53:54.849
realized that that actually is kind of my truest self
1071
00:53:54.949 --> 00:53:58.670
and my truest personality. And so I just tried to
1072
00:53:58.710 --> 00:54:03.929
kind of retain a lot of that in my life, uh,
1073
00:54:03.989 --> 00:54:04.750
moving forward.
1074
00:54:04.789 --> 00:54:07.750
And I think, I think that I have, it's a
1075
00:54:07.769 --> 00:54:11.000
good way to be anyway. Um, that's great.
1076
00:54:11.219 --> 00:54:12.349
Love you. Bye.
1077
00:54:13.099 --> 00:54:14.619
Love you. Mean it. Yeah.
1078
00:54:14.960 --> 00:54:17.480
And you come across people, uh, in your life too
1079
00:54:17.519 --> 00:54:18.500
that help bring that.
1080
00:54:18.420 --> 00:54:20.460
Out of you as well that's always nice it is
1081
00:54:20.519 --> 00:54:23.440
weird when somebody brings out a side of you that
1082
00:54:24.260 --> 00:54:27.550
yeah you rarely to never see.
1083
00:54:27.329 --> 00:54:31.530
The goofiest side the better like I went to a
1084
00:54:31.750 --> 00:54:34.320
dinner party with my friend Matt and I guess we'd
1085
00:54:34.340 --> 00:54:37.519
been very respectable at the dinner party talking to people
1086
00:54:37.539 --> 00:54:39.840
we'd never met you know getting to know people and
1087
00:54:39.860 --> 00:54:41.460
then we left and as we were walking to the
1088
00:54:41.579 --> 00:54:44.760
uber he he goes time to be weird and I
1089
00:54:44.780 --> 00:54:47.420
was like yes that's what I want in a friend
1090
00:54:48.500 --> 00:54:50.539
oh that's a great answer though from her.
1091
00:54:50.480 --> 00:54:53.159
Yeah yeah it is it's nice to feel free like
1092
00:54:53.219 --> 00:54:56.929
that where you're like just not really editing yourself and
1093
00:54:57.809 --> 00:55:03.900
yeah yeah I love Come in, coach. Come in. I
1094
00:55:03.920 --> 00:55:06.730
think about my days of attempting to be straight. That
1095
00:55:06.769 --> 00:55:09.230
was a fun time. That was a fun challenge.
1096
00:55:09.250 --> 00:55:12.500
I can't accept that. I can't accept that.
1097
00:55:12.519 --> 00:55:14.760

Yeah, we bump into each other in the bathroom.

Excuse me.
1102
00:55:20.019 --> 00:55:21.440

Missed opportunity.

They're swinging away at a donkey, but it would have
7
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.199

Welcome to the HandsomePod. I am here. I'm Mae Martin.
41
00:01:53.730 --> 00:01:55.359
I'm one of your hosts. I'm joined by.
42
00:01:55.379 --> 00:01:56.739
Dignotaro.
43
00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:58.239
I am also a host.
44
00:01:58.319 --> 00:01:59.379
Oh, what's your name?
45
00:01:59.780 --> 00:02:02.590
I'm a fortune beamster. I think I'm also a host.
46
00:02:03.269 --> 00:02:04.090
Absolutely.
47
00:02:04.109 --> 00:02:05.549
We all are.
48
00:02:06.030 --> 00:02:07.609
I think it's safe to say at this point you're
49
00:02:07.629 --> 00:02:08.229
one of the hosts.
50
00:02:08.990 --> 00:02:11.500
You guys, the host with the most.
51
00:02:11.969 --> 00:02:13.319
Well, that's up for debate.
52
00:02:13.699 --> 00:02:15.259
No, all of us. We're the host.
53
00:02:15.539 --> 00:02:16.180
Oh, okay.
54
00:02:16.259 --> 00:02:18.960
And you just couldn't hear the S, hosts.
55
00:02:19.780 --> 00:02:24.210
You know, it's fine. I'm not terribly competitive.
56
00:02:25.050 --> 00:02:25.189
Really?
57
00:02:25.270 --> 00:02:28.710
I'll be honest. No, except when Stephanie wants to play
58
00:02:28.710 --> 00:02:31.969
20 questions, then my competitive side comes out.
59
00:02:32.990 --> 00:02:35.800
What is 20 questions? I don't think of.
60
00:02:35.780 --> 00:02:37.699
That as a very competitive game, but.
61
00:02:38.020 --> 00:02:41.620
Well, her mother pointed it out yesterday because Stephanie is
62
00:02:41.780 --> 00:02:45.259
so good. Like if you say, oh, there is a
63
00:02:46.300 --> 00:02:54.310
comedian that has, you know, moved, whatever, some sort of,
64
00:02:54.449 --> 00:02:57.840
you put out some sort of information. And then Stephanie
65
00:02:57.860 --> 00:03:00.060
will be like, oh, can I guess who it is?
66
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:02.280
And I'll be like, sure. Or I'll be like, oh,
67
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.659
so-and-so started dating so-and-so. You know, how I love to gossip.
68
00:03:06.780 --> 00:03:11.409
And she goes, she'll say, can I ask 20 questions?
69
00:03:11.530 --> 00:03:12.449
And then I'll say, sure.
70
00:03:12.469 --> 00:03:14.310
Oh, to like figure out who it is.
71
00:03:14.389 --> 00:03:20.069
Yeah. And so we'll play that very, she's so good,
72
00:03:20.129 --> 00:03:24.370
it's stupid. And so the other morning, Her mother was
73
00:03:24.449 --> 00:03:28.659
here with us and we're having coffee, chatting. Something comes up.
74
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:31.120
Stephanie says, can we play 20 questions?
75
00:03:31.340 --> 00:03:31.539
Sure.
76
00:03:31.979 --> 00:03:36.199
We're playing. And then Stephanie's mother's like, whoa, gosh, you're
77
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:39.659
just as competitive as Stephanie. And I was like, what
78
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:42.409
do you mean? And I realized when she pointed this
79
00:03:42.590 --> 00:03:46.580
out that if Stephanie asks a question like, And then
80
00:03:46.659 --> 00:03:49.599
she asked something on top of that question. I'm like,
81
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.939
that's your fourth question. That's not like part of your
82
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:53.699
third question.
83
00:03:53.819 --> 00:03:54.379
Right, right.
84
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:58.509
And so I get really competitive with this because Stephanie is,
85
00:03:58.830 --> 00:04:02.969
she's so competitive. She's so good at it. But in general,
86
00:04:03.409 --> 00:04:11.580
I'm just not terribly competitive. Like, I'm just not terribly competitive. Right.
87
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.659
I can see that. I can be like. you're like
88
00:04:14.699 --> 00:04:19.790
yeah so what I'm lost who cares yeah.
89
00:04:19.329 --> 00:04:21.269
I'm lost who cares.
90
00:04:21.550 --> 00:04:25.699
No like I remember doing long distance cycling sometimes for
91
00:04:25.779 --> 00:04:29.060
charity and some people even though it's not a race
92
00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:34.459
some people still race and I was dead last and
93
00:04:34.509 --> 00:04:36.069
it was a four-day ride.
94
00:04:36.310 --> 00:04:41.079
Oh, four days. Was that an AIDS life cycle? One
95
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:43.040
of them was, yeah.
96
00:04:43.100 --> 00:04:47.060
But it's like 100 mile days that you're cycling.
97
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:48.379
Did your booty not hurt?
98
00:04:49.779 --> 00:04:52.160
I mean, it does, but you also spend a lot
99
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:56.379
of time training. And so you're building up to that moment.
100
00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:58.000
You're not just getting on your bike.
101
00:04:58.910 --> 00:05:01.209
I just picture just getting on the bike and be like,
102
00:05:01.250 --> 00:05:02.209
I guess we're doing this.
103
00:05:02.939 --> 00:05:05.439
But you came dead last and you were like, yeah, whatever.
104
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:06.379
I had the experience.
105
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:09.519
I came dead last, but I mainly came dead last
106
00:05:09.779 --> 00:05:13.040
because I blew out one of my knees and you know,
107
00:05:13.060 --> 00:05:16.980
those like clip in, um, bike shoes in the pedal.
108
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:18.480
Yeah.
109
00:05:18.500 --> 00:05:23.199
I rested my foot of the busted knee on the
110
00:05:23.259 --> 00:05:26.399
fork of my bike and use the other one to
111
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:31.699
pedal nearly 50 miles. And I kept picturing that my
112
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:35.069
right thigh was going to be three times the size
113
00:05:35.089 --> 00:05:38.589
of my left by the time I reached Portland, Maine.
114
00:05:39.050 --> 00:05:41.290
But that's not the only time. I just, in general,
115
00:05:41.329 --> 00:05:50.870
I just don't feel work, sports, any of that kind
116
00:05:50.910 --> 00:05:53.620
of stuff. I'm just like, I just don't feel it.
117
00:05:53.949 --> 00:05:54.230
Yeah.
118
00:05:54.310 --> 00:05:58.430
I think you should introduce... Instead of 20 questions, I
119
00:05:58.470 --> 00:06:01.370
play hide the peanut where one person hides a peanut
120
00:06:01.490 --> 00:06:05.129
metaphorically somewhere in the universe. And then you have yes
121
00:06:05.170 --> 00:06:07.949
or no questions to find this peanut. It could be
122
00:06:07.980 --> 00:06:10.319
in the past, the present, the future. It could be
123
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:13.139
in a fictional place, a real place. And you'd be
124
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:16.360
amazed how quickly you whittle down like the whole universe
125
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:17.680
and find this peanut.
126
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:19.860
And you have played this?
127
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:21.350
I play it all the time.
128
00:06:22.449 --> 00:06:25.209
All the time. yeah you got it all the time
129
00:06:25.509 --> 00:06:29.250
try and pull Mae from the hide the peanut game yeah.
130
00:06:28.790 --> 00:06:31.110
Yeah yeah I'll hide one right now if you want
131
00:06:31.410 --> 00:06:34.189
oh my lord I've hidden one I'm.
132
00:06:34.069 --> 00:06:36.139
Not good at these games so we have to guess.
133
00:06:35.899 --> 00:06:39.259
Where it is yeah yes or no questions is it
134
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:44.800
in space no is it on earth yeah okay then
135
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:46.959
what is it that's how.
136
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:49.910
I am is it in Los Angeles no is it
137
00:06:49.990 --> 00:06:51.529
in California.
138
00:06:51.310 --> 00:06:55.449
No England no Is it in Toronto? Yes.
139
00:06:56.529 --> 00:06:58.670
Okay. Is it in the room with you now?
140
00:06:59.089 --> 00:06:59.529
Yes.
141
00:06:59.889 --> 00:07:01.610
Okay, Tig.
142
00:07:01.730 --> 00:07:02.889
Just tell us.
143
00:07:02.910 --> 00:07:03.730
Just tell us.
144
00:07:03.769 --> 00:07:05.129
No, you're so close.
145
00:07:05.329 --> 00:07:08.910
Is it on your body?
146
00:07:08.930 --> 00:07:10.970
Yes, in a way.
147
00:07:11.250 --> 00:07:13.269
I give up. What is it?
148
00:07:13.370 --> 00:07:14.060
In a way?
149
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:18.439
Tig, we've narrowed it down so much. I don't like games.
150
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:19.420
By we, I mean me.
151
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:21.240
You've contributed nothing.
152
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:22.500
I don't like games.
153
00:07:23.209 --> 00:07:25.730
Where do you think I would keep a peanut? In
154
00:07:25.769 --> 00:07:27.290
your shoe.
155
00:07:28.610 --> 00:07:32.560
In your ear. Pocket. Is it in your hat?
156
00:07:33.189 --> 00:07:33.500
No.
157
00:07:34.540 --> 00:07:35.019
Mouth.
158
00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:36.720
Think about the pod.
159
00:07:37.300 --> 00:07:38.420
Behind a picture frame.
160
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:38.560
No. No.
161
00:07:42.860 --> 00:07:44.899
Think about the ponies. It's in your ponies.
162
00:07:44.980 --> 00:07:46.540
It's in my ponies.
163
00:07:46.620 --> 00:07:47.920
It's in my ponies.
164
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:49.079
I got it.
165
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:50.439
Look at that.
166
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:52.439
I thought you were going to be useless. And then
167
00:07:52.459 --> 00:07:53.879
you really came through at the end.
168
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.019
That's truly how I play with Stephanie when she's like
169
00:07:57.759 --> 00:08:01.509
wanting to do 20 questions with me, you know, and
170
00:08:01.550 --> 00:08:04.170
then I'll, I'll guess some things. I'm like, what, what
171
00:08:04.250 --> 00:08:04.540
is it?
172
00:08:04.750 --> 00:08:06.370
What is it? I don't just give up.
173
00:08:06.389 --> 00:08:06.610
Yeah.
174
00:08:09.589 --> 00:08:11.889
I think I want to... There's a lot of games
175
00:08:11.930 --> 00:08:13.970
that I used to play that I've not played in many,
176
00:08:13.990 --> 00:08:16.750
many years. And then I want to come back to
177
00:08:16.870 --> 00:08:18.329
playing again. Like what?
178
00:08:18.350 --> 00:08:19.509
Hopscotch. Hopscotch.
179
00:08:19.750 --> 00:08:22.449
Is this any board game? When people mention board games,
180
00:08:22.490 --> 00:08:24.329
I'm like, oh, I don't remember how that goes. Uno,
181
00:08:24.389 --> 00:08:27.290
I don't remember how that was played. Yeah, me neither, actually.
182
00:08:27.310 --> 00:08:29.389
I don't know. Just any kind of game.
183
00:08:30.069 --> 00:08:32.659
I wonder if we could make a handsome board game
184
00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:36.299
that's like Monopoly, but all the places are... You know,
185
00:08:36.340 --> 00:08:38.179
there's a pontoon. You can... Or.
186
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:44.220
I'm a pontoon. Actually, if anyone's listening and wants to
187
00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:44.980
make a handsome.
188
00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:46.039
If anyone's listening.
189
00:08:47.500 --> 00:08:52.179
If anyone is listening to this pod, let us know.
190
00:08:52.299 --> 00:08:53.269
I love that song.
191
00:08:53.309 --> 00:08:54.570
Papa, can you hear me?
192
00:08:54.990 --> 00:08:58.169
Papa, can you hear me? I should text Phillip and
193
00:08:58.210 --> 00:09:00.149
ask Little Big Town to do a question.
194
00:09:00.750 --> 00:09:01.169
Oh, yeah.
195
00:09:01.250 --> 00:09:05.250
And tell him that Handsome's favorite pontoon song is On
196
00:09:05.289 --> 00:09:05.950
the Pontoon.
197
00:09:06.559 --> 00:09:10.240
Well, why don't we get Barbra Streisand to ask a question?
198
00:09:10.259 --> 00:09:13.960
We don't have any contact with Barbra Streisand.
199
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.059
Yeah, what brought up Barbra Streisand?
200
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.210
Because of Yentl, Papa. Can you hear me?
201
00:09:18.940 --> 00:09:19.059
Oh.
202
00:09:20.019 --> 00:09:21.860
Yeah, but we have to have some sort of in.
203
00:09:21.980 --> 00:09:24.539
I just did with Babs.
204
00:09:24.659 --> 00:09:28.409
Oh, my God. If Babs sent in a video... I'd die.
205
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:30.960
Hello, handsome. That would be.
206
00:09:31.379 --> 00:09:32.830
That's impossible, right?
207
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:37.700
I think it's impossible. She's not really... wanting to talk
208
00:09:37.740 --> 00:09:39.100
to anybody i feel like.
209
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.100
It's actually more impossible than say obama paul mccartney like
210
00:09:43.139 --> 00:09:45.639
the big name like babs is really unreachable i.
211
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.360
Think oh she has like a mall in her house.
212
00:09:48.649 --> 00:09:51.529
Yeah where she can go she has a mall in
213
00:09:51.570 --> 00:09:54.429
her basement where she can go shopping for antique dolls
214
00:09:54.490 --> 00:09:55.909
i think like there's.
215
00:09:55.710 --> 00:10:00.840
Shops yeah my friends have been there because I did
216
00:10:00.879 --> 00:10:04.379
this show called Life in Pieces. It was on CBS
217
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.379
a few years back, and her husband was on the show.
218
00:10:08.220 --> 00:10:11.750
And Barbara invited the ladies of the show, but the
219
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.769
series regulars, to their freaking house for lunch. When they
220
00:10:16.789 --> 00:10:18.669
were doing the show and they got to take a
221
00:10:18.710 --> 00:10:21.879
tour and see all this stuff. And I couldn't believe it.
222
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:23.779
Oh, my God.
223
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:26.610
I was a recurring character, but not a series regular.
224
00:10:26.669 --> 00:10:29.909
So I wasn't in that. But I would have died
225
00:10:29.929 --> 00:10:30.529
to go.
226
00:10:30.529 --> 00:10:33.649
Imagine having them all in your... mall in your house?
227
00:10:34.029 --> 00:10:36.149
I would never want.
228
00:10:36.429 --> 00:10:37.509
I'm so confused.
229
00:10:38.250 --> 00:10:40.690
She cloned her dog, I think, right?
230
00:10:40.950 --> 00:10:42.009
She cloned her dog multiple times.
231
00:10:42.049 --> 00:10:44.909
I can understand that. I can't understand having a mall
232
00:10:44.990 --> 00:10:45.769
in your house.
233
00:10:45.789 --> 00:10:48.220
Well, she wants to have a normal experience and she
234
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:49.409
can't just go to the mall.
235
00:10:49.509 --> 00:10:53.220
And that's a normal experience is having a mall in
236
00:10:53.259 --> 00:10:53.740
your house?
237
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:58.899
Memories. She's like the corner of my mind.
238
00:10:58.980 --> 00:11:01.500
I stand by guilty being the best.
239
00:11:02.139 --> 00:11:05.019
And we got nothing to be guilty of.
240
00:11:05.700 --> 00:11:10.850
I love her. I don't remember the words. Is that about...
241
00:11:10.629 --> 00:11:15.269
Is that about like she's... I'm amazed that she's not
242
00:11:15.330 --> 00:11:26.269
on the pod. That song is a jam, Tig. You're right.
243
00:11:26.370 --> 00:11:26.830
Oh, my God.
244
00:11:26.929 --> 00:11:32.570
Guilty. And my favorite, favorite line or part of the
245
00:11:32.629 --> 00:11:35.509
song is that make it a crime to be lonely
246
00:11:35.549 --> 00:11:36.070
or sad.
247
00:11:36.629 --> 00:11:37.669
Make it a crime.
248
00:11:37.690 --> 00:11:40.120
Make it a crime. Have the police pull over and
249
00:11:40.169 --> 00:11:41.580
lock you up.
250
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:45.279
Are you lonely or sad? This is illegal.
251
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:49.639
But are they cheating on their parents? spouses and they're
252
00:11:49.659 --> 00:11:51.259
saying we got, we don't have to be guilty.
253
00:11:51.350 --> 00:11:52.490
Is that what it's about?
254
00:11:52.509 --> 00:11:57.029
I think it's about an affair and they're like, Oh no. Sorry.
255
00:12:00.450 --> 00:12:01.649
I'm going to Google this.
256
00:12:02.470 --> 00:12:05.220
Yeah. Is Babs guilty?
257
00:12:05.789 --> 00:12:06.240
Yeah.
258
00:12:06.340 --> 00:12:10.639
Should Babs be guilty? Um, I got an update for
259
00:12:10.659 --> 00:12:13.659
you guys. Oh, well, I don't know if it was
260
00:12:13.700 --> 00:12:15.759
on a mini soda or if I was talking about
261
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:17.139
how I have a foosball table.
262
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:18.039
Uh huh.
263
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:19.460
Did I tell you guys that?
264
00:12:19.500 --> 00:12:19.740
Yeah.
265
00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:22.940
And my friend, Matt, who lives in my back house,
266
00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:27.740
he's incredible at foosball. And I've played him thousands of times.
267
00:12:27.779 --> 00:12:30.480
I've only beat him three times. And it's really something
268
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:33.440
he's good at. And so I Googled, he's new to LA,
269
00:12:33.659 --> 00:12:37.019
and I found a foosball competition in Angel City Brewery.
270
00:12:37.830 --> 00:12:40.190
And it's the only one in LA. It's every Thursday.
271
00:12:40.450 --> 00:12:44.000
And I was like, Matt, we should sign up. And Boy,
272
00:12:44.039 --> 00:12:46.279
do we take it seriously. Every morning he's like, Hey buddy,
273
00:12:46.299 --> 00:12:48.809
do you mind practicing with me? Like he was really
274
00:12:48.870 --> 00:12:52.970
driven and we got dressed up. The day came, we
275
00:12:53.009 --> 00:12:55.309
were nervous. I was like, we're going to be on
276
00:12:55.350 --> 00:12:57.409
their turf. Whoever these foosball people are.
277
00:12:57.429 --> 00:12:57.509
Yeah.
278
00:12:59.409 --> 00:13:06.399
Like they could be like jocks or savants, like foosball savants. Anyway, guys,
279
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:08.120
we won the tournament.
280
00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:08.779
What?
281
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:13.100
You know why? Because no one else showed up.
282
00:13:13.379 --> 00:13:15.860
Oh my God.
283
00:13:16.340 --> 00:13:18.279
It was so embarrassing.
284
00:13:19.100 --> 00:13:19.600
Wow.
285
00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:22.710
It was more embarrassing than losing was just waiting there
286
00:13:23.169 --> 00:13:25.370
with the signup sheet at the bar. We signed up
287
00:13:25.509 --> 00:13:27.509
and just no one came. And so me and Matt
288
00:13:27.549 --> 00:13:31.870
just played. Where's the foosball community?
289
00:13:32.090 --> 00:13:33.950
Well, do you know the comedian Kelsey cook?
290
00:13:34.740 --> 00:13:35.480
Kelsey Cook.
291
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:38.240
Y'all might not have crossed paths. She lives in Minneapolis now.
292
00:13:38.259 --> 00:13:40.179
She used to live in LA, but she's an incredible
293
00:13:40.220 --> 00:13:44.080
foosball player and plays in like tournaments and stuff. Really?
294
00:13:44.100 --> 00:13:47.809
You know, so is Lisa Gilroy. And, uh, but she
295
00:13:47.889 --> 00:13:51.450
wins largely because her shit talk is so funny that
296
00:13:51.470 --> 00:13:54.570
you're like doubled over. She does this thing where she goes,
297
00:13:54.909 --> 00:13:57.570
you want it? You want it? Well, you can't have it.
298
00:13:59.570 --> 00:14:01.669
So you're telling me Lisa Gilroy is funny.
299
00:14:02.460 --> 00:14:03.240
Oh man.
300
00:14:05.620 --> 00:14:07.470
You want it you want it but you can't have
301
00:14:07.850 --> 00:14:10.590
it i and you can't like your muscles get weak
302
00:14:10.929 --> 00:14:13.090
from laughing it's a really good but she is also
303
00:14:13.129 --> 00:14:14.309
a great player.
304
00:14:14.549 --> 00:14:18.669
I like that the the um table shuffleboard game you
305
00:14:18.710 --> 00:14:21.429
know at a bar yeah the big long one that
306
00:14:21.529 --> 00:14:26.090
you do with your hands yeah with the salt i
307
00:14:26.129 --> 00:14:28.970
love those there you put there's like salt on the
308
00:14:29.009 --> 00:14:31.450
board or whatever Oh, to make it slide. It helps
309
00:14:31.549 --> 00:14:33.750
it slide. I love that game.
310
00:14:34.269 --> 00:14:35.480
Maybe I have to get one of those.
311
00:14:35.860 --> 00:14:38.639
Are you going for a full-on bachelor pad, May?
312
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.000
It's becoming, do you almost call me Max?
313
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:46.039
I don't know. My mouth is moving and sounds come out.
314
00:14:46.100 --> 00:14:49.159
I don't know.
315
00:14:49.559 --> 00:14:52.860
It's becoming Pee Wee's Playhouse, my house. I bought a
316
00:14:52.899 --> 00:14:53.860
Zoltar machine.
317
00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:54.779
What is that?
318
00:14:55.789 --> 00:14:59.360
You know, like from Big that tells your fortune? Zoltar.
319
00:14:59.919 --> 00:15:02.779
Oh. You have one of those in your house?
320
00:15:03.139 --> 00:15:05.659
I thought I'd ordered a full size. It shows up.
321
00:15:05.740 --> 00:15:07.500
It's this big. It's like tiny.
322
00:15:07.980 --> 00:15:09.220
You wanted full size.
323
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:10.570
I wanted full size.
324
00:15:10.710 --> 00:15:12.570
I think the smaller one's better, no?
325
00:15:13.429 --> 00:15:13.690
Why?
326
00:15:13.710 --> 00:15:15.690
Because it's smaller.
327
00:15:15.710 --> 00:15:17.110
Not some giant head.
328
00:15:17.129 --> 00:15:21.049
I want the giant one. Funny.
329
00:15:21.129 --> 00:15:23.049
I got to come to this bachelor pad at some
330
00:15:23.110 --> 00:15:24.730
point to see what's happening over there.
331
00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:28.460
I'll get that shuffled board game if it'll make you come.
332
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:38.379
I mean, that sounds... We're.
333
00:15:38.990 --> 00:15:40.590
Very mature over here.
334
00:15:40.610 --> 00:15:41.809
We're so pure.
335
00:15:42.330 --> 00:15:45.250
So are you loving this house? It seems like this
336
00:15:45.289 --> 00:15:46.509
was a good investment, huh?
337
00:15:47.090 --> 00:15:49.169
Loving this house. Yeah, I really am.
338
00:15:49.570 --> 00:15:51.450
And it feels like home now? Because I had asked
339
00:15:51.490 --> 00:15:53.700
you in the early days, is it feeling like home?
340
00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:54.149
You said no.
341
00:15:54.850 --> 00:15:55.110
Yeah.
342
00:15:55.210 --> 00:15:56.090
It is feeling like home.
343
00:15:56.129 --> 00:15:57.169
Yeah. Yeah.
344
00:15:57.740 --> 00:16:01.659
And, and like a real homeowner, like stuff is breaking
345
00:16:01.700 --> 00:16:03.580
and then I got to get it fixed. And I
346
00:16:03.620 --> 00:16:04.440
kind of like it all.
347
00:16:04.980 --> 00:16:08.440
It's such a, I'm, I'm jealous of that feeling of, um,
348
00:16:09.409 --> 00:16:12.730
the beginning of trying to make a house feel like
349
00:16:12.769 --> 00:16:16.529
a home. Like it's such a fun new experience.
350
00:16:16.830 --> 00:16:18.210
Yeah, it really is.
351
00:16:18.289 --> 00:16:20.470
Where you like go to bed at night at first
352
00:16:20.549 --> 00:16:23.649
and you're like, Oh, this is a strange room. This
353
00:16:23.769 --> 00:16:27.620
is where am I? And then boom, one day you
354
00:16:27.700 --> 00:16:28.379
are home.
355
00:16:28.820 --> 00:16:29.100
Yeah.
356
00:16:29.539 --> 00:16:32.279
Yeah. And no one can kick you out. No landlord's
357
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:32.940
going to say.
358
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:34.779
As long as you pay your bills.
359
00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:37.779
Well, I mean, did you buy your house outright? Because
360
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:38.470
people could.
361
00:16:39.009 --> 00:16:39.690
What do you mean?
362
00:16:40.029 --> 00:16:40.230
No.
363
00:16:40.250 --> 00:16:41.429
Do you have a mortgage?
364
00:16:41.789 --> 00:16:42.129
Yeah.
365
00:16:42.509 --> 00:16:44.700
They could kick you out if you don't. Yeah, you
366
00:16:44.740 --> 00:16:45.899
have to keep paying.
367
00:16:46.419 --> 00:16:48.320
But who's going to kick me out? The bank?
368
00:16:48.980 --> 00:16:49.200
Yeah.
369
00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:49.799
Yes, they will.
370
00:16:49.820 --> 00:16:53.500
Yeah, I guess so. No, I mean, I'll pay the mortgage.
371
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:56.000
The bank will be like, this is mine.
372
00:16:56.100 --> 00:16:56.659
Thank you.
373
00:16:56.700 --> 00:16:59.940
Bye-bye. I already bought this. Get out of my house, bank.
374
00:17:06.589 --> 00:17:09.710
Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance.
375
00:17:10.049 --> 00:17:12.349
Not checking that I put away all my puppets before
376
00:17:12.410 --> 00:17:15.309
going to sleep. That's the stuff of nightmares. I woke
377
00:17:15.349 --> 00:17:16.529
up to get some water in the middle of the
378
00:17:16.569 --> 00:17:18.589
night and I thought an army of tiny folk had
379
00:17:18.670 --> 00:17:19.789
come to life in my house.
380
00:17:20.130 --> 00:17:21.509
Yeah, checking first is handsome.
381
00:17:21.890 --> 00:17:23.990
So check Allstate first for an auto quote.
382
00:17:24.130 --> 00:17:27.380
It could save you hundreds. You're in good hands with Allstate.
383
00:17:27.730 --> 00:17:31.099
Potential savings vary subject to terms, conditions, and availability. Allstate,
384
00:17:31.130 --> 00:17:33.660
North American insurance company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois.
385
00:17:34.220 --> 00:17:36.789
As we head into the fall, it is the perfect
386
00:17:36.829 --> 00:17:40.029
time to hit reset before the autumn rush. And for me,
387
00:17:40.269 --> 00:17:43.789
that always starts with my wardrobe. Quince proves you don't
388
00:17:43.809 --> 00:17:46.109
need a crowded closet to look incredible. You just need
389
00:17:46.130 --> 00:17:47.170
the right pieces.
390
00:17:47.710 --> 00:17:50.990
I am awful choosy about my denim, but I was
391
00:17:51.069 --> 00:17:54.769
so impressed by Quince's straight leg jeans. The best part
392
00:17:54.869 --> 00:17:58.170
was the quality, but the other best part was the price.
393
00:17:58.579 --> 00:18:02.839
Their jeans were priced at just $ 50. That's comparable to
394
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:10.789
$ 245 at traditional retail. That's a 79% savings. Plus, you
395
00:18:10.829 --> 00:18:13.509
get an amazing pair of jeans to go with all
396
00:18:14.150 --> 00:18:17.349
your cash. I find myself reaching for my Quince jeans
397
00:18:17.569 --> 00:18:19.769
over and over again. Quince, I'm a fan.

404
00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:43.160
I still have so many things not on the walls
405
00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:45.380
at my house, and I've been here two and a
406
00:18:45.420 --> 00:18:45.960
half years.
407
00:18:46.819 --> 00:18:50.500
Yes, maybe you need some big art, like a big, giant...
408
00:18:50.880 --> 00:18:51.279
I don't.
409
00:18:51.140 --> 00:18:53.559
Know if I'll end up selling this place and I
410
00:18:53.599 --> 00:18:57.420
kind of want something smaller. Right. It's too big. And
411
00:18:57.720 --> 00:18:58.839
now it's just me.
412
00:18:58.940 --> 00:19:01.299
So you want to move into my back house with
413
00:19:01.339 --> 00:19:02.319
Matt and his girlfriend?
414
00:19:02.339 --> 00:19:06.960
Well, that's definitely too small. I would like my, my
415
00:19:07.009 --> 00:19:10.650
last house I adored. It was the best and I
416
00:19:10.769 --> 00:19:12.869
made it exactly how I wanted it, but it was
417
00:19:12.910 --> 00:19:15.049
a little too small. So I want something in between
418
00:19:15.089 --> 00:19:15.589
these two.
419
00:19:16.190 --> 00:19:19.150
It's a good, like fresh start. I mean, I, I was,
420
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:24.480
post breakup bought the house and it was distracting and, uh,
421
00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:27.849
felt empowering to like make your space your own.
422
00:19:27.869 --> 00:19:27.950
Yeah.
423
00:19:28.150 --> 00:19:31.250
Yeah. I'm not in a hurry. It might not be
424
00:19:31.369 --> 00:19:32.990
anytime soon, but at some point.
425
00:19:33.529 --> 00:19:35.950
Tell us that you're going to bring that fake plant
426
00:19:35.970 --> 00:19:37.869
with you. If you move.
427
00:19:37.910 --> 00:19:41.390
This is coming everywhere with me. I love that this
428
00:19:42.369 --> 00:19:46.440
is how I'm zhuzhing up my zoom box.
429
00:19:46.500 --> 00:19:49.160
Where do I put my plastic plant?
430
00:19:49.819 --> 00:19:49.890
Oh.
431
00:19:50.619 --> 00:19:53.920
I might make this other room in here a little
432
00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:56.769
handsome spot with a chair and everything. You guys just
433
00:19:56.829 --> 00:19:57.430
wait to see.
434
00:19:57.450 --> 00:19:59.470
What do you mean a handsome spot?
435
00:19:59.809 --> 00:20:02.349
Like a little corner of this room. I might put
436
00:20:02.390 --> 00:20:05.890
like a chair and like hang something up on the wall.
437
00:20:06.009 --> 00:20:07.349
Definitely the fake plant.
438
00:20:08.009 --> 00:20:10.549
But I mean, handsome, meaning when you record handsome?
439
00:20:10.569 --> 00:20:13.339
When I record, that will be my spot. Yeah. Okay.
440
00:20:13.670 --> 00:20:14.059
All right.
441
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:16.339
Right now I'm just at my desk, but I might
442
00:20:16.380 --> 00:20:18.660
make a designated handsome spot.
443
00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:21.019
Do you think you'll ever move, Tig? Like when the
444
00:20:21.059 --> 00:20:24.619
boys go off to college or whatever, would you guys move?
445
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:32.119
We have talked about, yeah, potentially selling our house when
446
00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:35.490
they graduate and just moving back into our office, which is,
447
00:20:36.250 --> 00:20:40.130
you know, just a little bungalow, um, that we love
448
00:20:40.450 --> 00:20:40.990
very much.
449
00:20:41.329 --> 00:20:43.950
It's kind of a sexy vibe, the office. It's, it's,
450
00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:48.019
it's unusual, the layout and there's like, it's, it's stained
451
00:20:48.079 --> 00:20:49.960
glass and stuff, right? It's beautiful.
452
00:20:49.980 --> 00:20:51.019
Yeah. Yeah.
453
00:20:51.220 --> 00:20:54.740
We really love it there. And, um, and our, and
454
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:57.549
we love where we live now. We just, I don't
455
00:20:57.569 --> 00:20:59.529
know if I've mentioned this or not, but we have
456
00:20:59.710 --> 00:21:05.509
never like, done our house because we moved in when
457
00:21:05.549 --> 00:21:08.630
Max and Finn were one and they were so nuts
458
00:21:09.289 --> 00:21:11.950
that we didn't even have furniture in the living room
459
00:21:12.130 --> 00:21:14.759
for the first, like until they were two.
460
00:21:14.779 --> 00:21:18.160
You never like adultified the house.
461
00:21:18.180 --> 00:21:20.359
No. And then by the time they finally kind of
462
00:21:20.400 --> 00:21:23.420
calmed down, we never put art on the walls. We just,
463
00:21:23.539 --> 00:21:26.380
we were, we just had these two little lunatics running
464
00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:28.890
around And then by the time they kind of pulled
465
00:21:28.930 --> 00:21:31.529
it together, it was a pandemic. And then we couldn't
466
00:21:31.589 --> 00:21:36.029
even deal with, you know, doing our house or having
467
00:21:36.069 --> 00:21:39.630
somebody come in. And then, so now we're getting to
468
00:21:39.670 --> 00:21:42.750
that place where we're like, Max and Finn are so
469
00:21:42.849 --> 00:21:48.309
chill and the pandemic's over and let's actually do something
470
00:21:48.349 --> 00:21:49.869
with our house.
471
00:21:50.170 --> 00:21:53.250
Did you ever watch those like extreme home makeover shows
472
00:21:53.289 --> 00:21:56.609
where like, they always, they ask the kids what they're
473
00:21:56.650 --> 00:21:58.809
into and then they'll say one thing and then they'll
474
00:21:58.849 --> 00:22:00.710
turn the room and like, they'll go, I kind of
475
00:22:00.730 --> 00:22:03.410
like horses and then they'll run with it and they'll
476
00:22:03.430 --> 00:22:05.529
turn the bedroom into like a barn. And the kid's
477
00:22:05.630 --> 00:22:08.690
always like, okay, I don't know if I'm that into horses.
478
00:22:09.829 --> 00:22:10.109
Yeah.
479
00:22:11.109 --> 00:22:13.049
Maybe I'll redo your house. You tell me what you're
480
00:22:13.089 --> 00:22:15.970
into and then I'll surprise you with Zoltar.
481
00:22:17.029 --> 00:22:20.210
Yeah. Stephanie wouldn't, I wouldn't fly with her. She's not
482
00:22:20.309 --> 00:22:24.069
chill with what is in the house. So I don't,
483
00:22:24.710 --> 00:22:29.319
I know right away Zoltar wouldn't fly. Or any surprises.
484
00:22:29.779 --> 00:22:30.980
Yeah, okay.
485
00:22:31.019 --> 00:22:35.319
Not one surprise will fly. I mean, to be fair,
486
00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:37.380
I don't know that I'd want Zoltar in the house.
487
00:22:37.779 --> 00:22:39.819
Yeah, that's fair. Maximum might be into him.
488
00:22:40.259 --> 00:22:43.740
Yeah, I think for sure. But maybe you could surprise
489
00:22:43.809 --> 00:22:46.369
them and put one in there. Well, they each have
490
00:22:46.390 --> 00:22:47.809
their own room.
491
00:22:47.869 --> 00:22:49.630
That's two full-size Zoltars.
492
00:22:50.250 --> 00:22:54.960
Mm-hmm. That's great. Should we get into our question?
493
00:22:54.980 --> 00:22:55.049
Yes.
494
00:22:55.539 --> 00:22:59.700
Let's do it. I'm really excited about today's question asker.
495
00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:01.420
I feel like this has been a long time coming
496
00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:04.819
because this is a friend of the pod, Alison Brie. Oh,
497
00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:08.940
I already gave away her name, but today's question.
498
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:09.420
Still a friend.
499
00:23:09.700 --> 00:23:10.730
Still a friend.
500
00:23:10.750 --> 00:23:13.349
Still Alison Brie. This is a handsome pod and it's
501
00:23:14.289 --> 00:23:15.589
really awesome.
502
00:23:16.099 --> 00:23:19.859
She's the best. And she's an actor, writer, producer, best
503
00:23:19.900 --> 00:23:22.559
known for her starring roles on Mad Men and Community.
504
00:23:23.180 --> 00:23:25.460
She was nominated for a Golden Globe for playing Ruth
505
00:23:25.640 --> 00:23:28.809
on Glow and has appeared in films like Somebody I
506
00:23:28.869 --> 00:23:31.630
Used to Know and Promising Young Woman and her new
507
00:23:31.650 --> 00:23:36.670
movie with her husband, Dave Franco, Together, which is apparently
508
00:23:36.769 --> 00:23:39.130
so terrifying and I can't wait to see it. Alison
509
00:23:39.190 --> 00:23:41.829
Brie is asking today's question. Nice.
510
00:23:41.849 --> 00:23:44.769
Nice. Hi, handsomes.
511
00:23:45.170 --> 00:23:49.210
Alison Brie here. Huge fan.
512
00:23:49.730 --> 00:23:54.819
Tig, Mae, Fortune, big fan of all three of you.
513
00:23:54.960 --> 00:23:56.779
Huge fan of the pod. Okay.
514
00:23:57.240 --> 00:23:57.960
This is Otis.
515
00:23:58.460 --> 00:24:04.049
My question is, was there ever a time in your
516
00:24:04.430 --> 00:24:12.579
life where you... consciously decided to try on a different
517
00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:13.960
personality and.
518
00:24:16.339 --> 00:24:17.420
How did it go?
519
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:19.140
I'll give you an example.
520
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:21.039
That's not my answer, which is that a friend of
521
00:24:21.079 --> 00:24:24.619
mine in high school switched schools, um, like sophomore year.
522
00:24:25.299 --> 00:24:27.819
And at the other school, she went by her middle
523
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:31.359
name and just had like a totally different personality. And
524
00:24:31.380 --> 00:24:33.619
then when she left that school, she just went back
525
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:39.119
to using her regular name, her first name. Um, Have
526
00:24:39.140 --> 00:24:40.519
you ever done anything like that?
527
00:24:41.140 --> 00:24:41.759
And how'd it go?
528
00:24:42.579 --> 00:24:47.890
First of all, I did not realize that Alison Brie
529
00:24:47.930 --> 00:24:49.549
was going to be a part of Kitty City.
530
00:24:49.970 --> 00:24:55.549
Yeah, she's a Kitty City gal. Otis. Otis was really
531
00:24:55.569 --> 00:24:57.410
getting in there. I know.
532
00:24:57.930 --> 00:25:02.339
And I loved her attention to Otis when he came
533
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:04.720
in for kisses when she was mid-question.
534
00:25:05.549 --> 00:25:09.569
I mean, is that normal cat behavior? I thought they
535
00:25:09.609 --> 00:25:10.970
were more standoffish.
536
00:25:11.490 --> 00:25:16.589
They can be standoffish, but man, can they be snuggly, lovey-dovey.
537
00:25:17.450 --> 00:25:22.450
And all three of our cats are very standoffish and lovey-dovey.
538
00:25:22.730 --> 00:25:24.109
I've never had a cat.
539
00:25:24.630 --> 00:25:27.650
Otis had like almost a dog vibe. That's kind of
540
00:25:27.690 --> 00:25:31.039
a dog name, Otis. And then, yeah, he was, yeah.
541
00:25:31.779 --> 00:25:36.329
I love that question because I'm constantly... paranoid that I'm
542
00:25:36.789 --> 00:25:41.670
accidentally changing my personality. Like I feel like I have
543
00:25:41.710 --> 00:25:44.349
a loose grip on my personality and I'm up for
544
00:25:44.390 --> 00:25:45.390
it changing.
545
00:25:45.549 --> 00:25:49.200
It's sort of, it's fully influenced.
546
00:25:50.180 --> 00:25:52.519
Not as much anymore, but definitely as a teenager.
547
00:25:52.619 --> 00:25:53.519
Oh my God.
548
00:25:53.539 --> 00:25:57.240
Like, and really similar experience was I would go to
549
00:25:57.539 --> 00:26:00.480
summer camp every summer and I'd kind of decide who
550
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:02.380
I was going to be or see when I got there,
551
00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:06.730
like what would be most useful socially. And I think
552
00:26:06.769 --> 00:26:08.319
I've said this on the pod, but I went to
553
00:26:08.380 --> 00:26:11.539
camp one summer and I go, yeah, I may, but
554
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:16.640
everybody calls me maple sugar. And everyone's like, no, they don't.
555
00:26:17.099 --> 00:26:20.720
I'm like, no one called me that and it didn't
556
00:26:20.779 --> 00:26:24.519
catch on. And then I was always acting really tortured
557
00:26:24.579 --> 00:26:27.039
and kind of mysterious and like, yeah, I got some
558
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:28.380
stuff going on back home.
559
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:32.480
And wait, what made you think maple sugar?
560
00:26:33.589 --> 00:26:33.910
Sugar?
561
00:26:34.349 --> 00:26:38.130
What'd you say? Maple syrup? Maple sugar. Maple sugar was cool?
562
00:26:38.150 --> 00:26:41.940
I think because May Pearl is my first name.
563
00:26:42.200 --> 00:26:44.819
Yes, which I love. Thanks.
564
00:26:45.339 --> 00:26:48.220
I think it was because it was middle school. So
565
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:50.779
it was just in the two year period where I
566
00:26:50.779 --> 00:26:53.240
had long hair, the only time in my life. And
567
00:26:53.259 --> 00:26:56.079
I think I was keenly aware that I I was
568
00:26:56.400 --> 00:26:59.309
not feminine enough. Like, and all these cool girls were
569
00:26:59.410 --> 00:27:02.230
in my cabin and I thought maple sugar sounds kind
570
00:27:02.250 --> 00:27:05.210
of like a cool femme name. Like I would maybe
571
00:27:05.269 --> 00:27:08.690
be a cheerleader or something. And I did not.
572
00:27:08.470 --> 00:27:10.140
Give it up for maple sugar.
573
00:27:10.180 --> 00:27:15.000
Y'all it's such a long nickname too.
574
00:27:15.019 --> 00:27:16.680
Like, It's like a drag name.
575
00:27:16.700 --> 00:27:21.380
Yeah, instead of my three-letter name, they call me this sentence.
576
00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:26.579
Yeah. You think you were like telling people you had
577
00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:28.380
a lot of stuff going on back home, hoping they
578
00:27:28.420 --> 00:27:31.589
would be like, what's going on? Tell us like an
579
00:27:31.640 --> 00:27:32.430
attention thing.
580
00:27:32.450 --> 00:27:35.170
Would you tell them what was going on or would
581
00:27:35.190 --> 00:27:37.410
you make up like, well, my dad's a bandit?
582
00:27:38.299 --> 00:27:41.259
And I think I did lie quite a bit in
583
00:27:41.859 --> 00:27:44.680
around that time, like middle school era. Like I definitely
584
00:27:44.700 --> 00:27:48.380
had a fake boyfriend. And but it was a don't
585
00:27:48.420 --> 00:27:51.730
we all don't we all. It was like it was
586
00:27:51.750 --> 00:27:54.069
this friend of mine, Cliff Cardinal. He wrote me a
587
00:27:54.170 --> 00:27:57.490
letter at camp and then I decided to pretend. pretend
588
00:27:57.569 --> 00:28:00.029
that the letter was like my from he was just
589
00:28:00.069 --> 00:28:02.190
my friend like I had a crush on him yeah
590
00:28:02.210 --> 00:28:04.289
and I pretended it was like there's some stuff going
591
00:28:04.309 --> 00:28:06.470
on with my boyfriend like he's having a tough time
592
00:28:06.509 --> 00:28:08.410
and I wouldn't let anyone read the letter yeah you
593
00:28:09.279 --> 00:28:13.920
guys would not believe what is in this yeah and
594
00:28:13.940 --> 00:28:16.000
then burning it really quick so no.
595
00:28:15.980 --> 00:28:20.200
One can read it it's very private don't even ask
596
00:28:20.539 --> 00:28:21.180
and the letter was.
597
00:28:21.140 --> 00:28:22.819
Like hey bro hope you're having a good time yeah
598
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.279
What about you guys? Like I take, I feel like
599
00:28:29.299 --> 00:28:34.529
you were genuinely to your core that, that cowboy person.
600
00:28:34.549 --> 00:28:36.970
So you weren't, it wasn't, it wasn't an affectation.
601
00:28:36.990 --> 00:28:41.130
No, I mean, I definitely leaned more into it and
602
00:28:41.349 --> 00:28:46.859
you know, I, I was, I was a little rebel, um,
603
00:28:47.619 --> 00:28:50.500
chip on my shoulder. I've, you know, I'm still working
604
00:28:50.519 --> 00:28:53.539
through all of it as an adult. You gotta have your,
605
00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:57.140
you have to have your little shell to protect you
606
00:28:57.279 --> 00:29:01.660
and use your, whatever personality, part of your personality to
607
00:29:01.759 --> 00:29:06.630
hide everything. So, um, yeah, but I, I was really,
608
00:29:06.769 --> 00:29:09.930
you know, the kid that was off in the woods
609
00:29:10.009 --> 00:29:13.930
and in the creek and smoking and failing and, um,
610
00:29:14.089 --> 00:29:16.329
sneaking out of the house and doing all that, you know,
611
00:29:16.390 --> 00:29:20.190
driving around in the car without, license when I could
612
00:29:20.210 --> 00:29:23.730
barely look over the steering wheel. Like that is all factual.
613
00:29:23.869 --> 00:29:26.319
I have many people that can back up all of
614
00:29:26.460 --> 00:29:32.180
this information about me. But I would say like on
615
00:29:32.220 --> 00:29:37.529
an unfortunate kind of like really unfortunate level, the times
616
00:29:37.569 --> 00:29:41.160
that I have changed my personality has been when I've
617
00:29:41.259 --> 00:29:46.420
felt fearful, you know, in like a public bathroom or something,
618
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:51.400
you know, you get like weird looks or, you know,
619
00:29:51.420 --> 00:29:53.859
how do you, who are you? How do you identify?
620
00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:57.210
And I've noticed myself sometimes trying to like, fem it
621
00:29:57.299 --> 00:29:59.519
up a little bit when I go in the bathroom,
622
00:29:59.539 --> 00:30:03.039
you know? Um, and then I just think, God, it's
623
00:30:03.220 --> 00:30:07.160
so pathetic that, that I would have to, uh, to.
624
00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:10.400
Do that. Yeah.
625
00:30:10.420 --> 00:30:15.119
So, um, no real funny story there, but, um, but yeah,
626
00:30:15.160 --> 00:30:17.789
that's really the, the time that I, I, I notice
627
00:30:17.829 --> 00:30:19.869
it the most. And, and that's a point that I
628
00:30:19.910 --> 00:30:22.710
always use to people that, you know, any sort of
629
00:30:23.569 --> 00:30:29.049
confusion somebody has around um trans people or non-binary people
630
00:30:29.869 --> 00:30:30.769
it's like.
631
00:30:30.869 --> 00:30:34.490
It ends up policing all all women the whole everybody
632
00:30:34.509 --> 00:30:35.410
like cis women as.
633
00:30:35.359 --> 00:30:41.539
Well everybody everybody you know and so yeah it's it's
634
00:30:41.579 --> 00:30:45.900
just a weird little moment in life i'm like excuse
635
00:30:45.940 --> 00:30:47.480
me excuse me.
636
00:30:47.420 --> 00:30:50.940
I'm just trying to get in the stall i just
637
00:30:50.980 --> 00:30:51.779
have to go.
638
00:30:51.660 --> 00:30:56.069
Pee pee I can't believe I didn't wear my dress
639
00:30:56.130 --> 00:30:59.559
today because it'd be so much easier to just fling
640
00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:00.880
that thing up in the air.
641
00:31:01.759 --> 00:31:04.900
I've been called sir in several bathrooms and I'm like, really?
642
00:31:05.700 --> 00:31:09.200
You get called sir? Yeah. I've had a woman once
643
00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:11.799
in an airport bathroom be like, this is the women's restroom.
644
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:14.329
I'm like, yep. I know.
645
00:31:14.369 --> 00:31:16.349
I've said the same thing. I'm like, oh, that works
646
00:31:16.430 --> 00:31:17.190
out perfectly.
647
00:31:17.250 --> 00:31:17.569
Yeah.
648
00:31:18.089 --> 00:31:22.950
Yeah, it always feels like a minefield to me, constantly
649
00:31:23.049 --> 00:31:26.069
on guard. Did you guys ever, when you first started
650
00:31:26.170 --> 00:31:29.380
comedy and you're in love with comedy and you're in
651
00:31:29.490 --> 00:31:33.039
green rooms with more experienced comedians, try to adopt the
652
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:37.299
persona of a comedian almost? Like, yeah, good set. Yeah,
653
00:31:37.319 --> 00:31:40.299
I like the tag. You know what I mean? I
654
00:31:41.079 --> 00:31:43.160
was so excited to be part of that community that
655
00:31:43.220 --> 00:31:46.039
I'm sure I was like, you know, with my little
656
00:31:46.099 --> 00:31:47.380
notebook and trying to.
657
00:31:47.990 --> 00:31:51.230
And then dropping your voice a little like, yeah, yeah, yeah, nice, nice, sweet.
658
00:31:51.269 --> 00:31:52.369
Yeah, yeah.
659
00:31:52.430 --> 00:31:53.710
I don't know.
660
00:31:53.730 --> 00:31:54.450
I don't know.
661
00:31:55.170 --> 00:31:58.130
That doesn't feel familiar. It doesn't feel as familiar as
662
00:31:58.190 --> 00:32:01.359
me saying, excuse me, I just have to get a
663
00:32:01.380 --> 00:32:02.079
tampon out.
664
00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:02.980
Of my purse.
665
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:03.880
Yeah.
666
00:32:04.440 --> 00:32:05.859
I got to plug my cooter.
667
00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:08.200
I got to plug my cooter.
668
00:32:08.220 --> 00:32:13.680
You hear that in a stall in the bathroom. I
669
00:32:14.140 --> 00:32:15.799
got to plug my cooter.
670
00:32:21.259 --> 00:32:23.559
Fortune, what about going to college after living in a
671
00:32:23.619 --> 00:32:28.140
small town? Like that's a chance to be a different person.
672
00:32:28.559 --> 00:32:33.170
Yeah, I was like cognizant of like not changing too
673
00:32:33.230 --> 00:32:38.910
much because my mom, she listens to this. She's like, oh,
674
00:32:39.049 --> 00:32:42.769
why are you bringing this up? But my mom used to,
675
00:32:43.109 --> 00:32:46.650
back in the day, whenever she would, after my parents divorced,
676
00:32:47.269 --> 00:32:51.359
she went through a couple of relationships. And in those relationships,
677
00:32:51.420 --> 00:32:59.200
she significantly changed to be who she thought that those
678
00:32:59.289 --> 00:33:02.690
particular men wanted her to be. So that always bugged
679
00:33:02.750 --> 00:33:07.410
me because I was just, I didn't understand it. I
680
00:33:07.430 --> 00:33:10.130
was young and I was like, why are you being
681
00:33:10.170 --> 00:33:14.539
somebody you're not? And in the most extreme version of that,
682
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:18.329
one was, he was very conservative. I'd talked about this
683
00:33:18.410 --> 00:33:21.210
in my sweet and salty special where he just like
684
00:33:21.250 --> 00:33:23.559
my family had gone to Hooters her whole life. And
685
00:33:23.650 --> 00:33:27.380
he just was like, Oh yeah. Yeah. Not into that stuff.
686
00:33:27.480 --> 00:33:31.440
And she was like, I have never been to Hooters
687
00:33:31.940 --> 00:33:32.619
in front of him.
688
00:33:32.920 --> 00:33:35.660
And, um, I have been to Cooters.
689
00:33:37.740 --> 00:33:40.190
And even though that story is very funny, it's based
690
00:33:40.470 --> 00:33:44.109
on her completely changing for this person.
691
00:33:44.130 --> 00:33:45.200
Um, Yeah.
692
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:47.000
So I always had that in the back of my
693
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:52.980
head of like not veering too far off. But, you know,
694
00:33:53.000 --> 00:33:55.759
when you're young, you're still kind of trying to find yourself.
695
00:33:56.529 --> 00:33:58.990
So you have to sort of try on different hats
696
00:33:59.109 --> 00:34:05.450
to see like, well, who am I? And so younger days,
697
00:34:05.529 --> 00:34:09.409
sports was a big part of my personality. But then
698
00:34:09.449 --> 00:34:11.099
in college, I had this weird thing. I hung out
699
00:34:11.139 --> 00:34:15.480
with a lot of church going people. And so I
700
00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:18.440
kind of tried that on for a while. Like, oh,
701
00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:25.590
I'm a church gal. And yeah, that was probably the most,
702
00:34:25.610 --> 00:34:29.469
the biggest swing away from my personality.
703
00:34:30.190 --> 00:34:31.829
But you do love the Lord, right?
704
00:34:31.909 --> 00:34:33.650
I love the Lord.
705
00:34:36.869 --> 00:34:38.409
You're just looking for community, right?
706
00:34:38.429 --> 00:34:41.690
I think I was looking for community. And my family
707
00:34:41.730 --> 00:34:45.329
was pretty fractured at the time. My grandmother had just
708
00:34:45.389 --> 00:34:50.630
passed and I was a bit lost. So my grandmother
709
00:34:50.670 --> 00:34:53.360
died the day after I moved into college. So I
710
00:34:53.389 --> 00:34:59.500
was experiencing this brand new school. I didn't know anybody.
711
00:34:59.519 --> 00:35:04.340
I was lost. I was sad. And so those are
712
00:35:04.360 --> 00:35:08.119
the times when you're the most susceptible to anything. influence.
713
00:35:08.539 --> 00:35:11.960
And so I met some really great people, um, who
714
00:35:11.980 --> 00:35:14.320
were religious and kind of was like, well, let me
715
00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:16.789
see what they're doing. I like hanging out with them
716
00:35:16.809 --> 00:35:20.230
and their church was all about family and stuff. And
717
00:35:20.269 --> 00:35:25.989
I think it like made me want family and crave, um, that.
718
00:35:26.090 --> 00:35:28.179
And so I thought, well, if I do that, then
719
00:35:28.260 --> 00:35:30.340
I can have, I can create a family for myself
720
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:34.719
one day and just, you know, eventually realized that, oh,
721
00:35:34.760 --> 00:35:39.769
this is not me at all. Um, but, uh, yeah.
722
00:35:39.809 --> 00:35:43.469
And then I tried like theater, um, in college too.
723
00:35:43.590 --> 00:35:43.670
And.
724
00:35:44.340 --> 00:35:47.510
Maybe I'm a theater kid and I liked it, but
725
00:35:47.610 --> 00:35:50.449
it wasn't in, in the irony is that I act now,
726
00:35:50.510 --> 00:35:54.989
but I'm not a theater kid. Um, I feel like.
727
00:35:54.829 --> 00:35:57.489
You got some theater kid and you like a musical.
728
00:35:57.510 --> 00:36:01.369
I love a musical dramatic, like, Oh, right.
729
00:36:01.489 --> 00:36:01.829
Yeah.
730
00:36:01.849 --> 00:36:02.269
Yeah. Yeah.
731
00:36:02.309 --> 00:36:07.489
Like expressing yourself and what in big ways. I'm not
732
00:36:07.550 --> 00:36:11.139
quite that. Um, And so then when I moved to,
733
00:36:11.280 --> 00:36:12.820
when I eventually moved to LA, it was when I
734
00:36:12.889 --> 00:36:17.730
came out, I think, um, was like anything up until
735
00:36:17.769 --> 00:36:20.289
coming out was like, I'm sort of blown with the
736
00:36:20.349 --> 00:36:20.869
wind here.
737
00:36:20.889 --> 00:36:21.690
Yeah.
738
00:36:21.949 --> 00:36:25.909
I come out and then I'm like, Oh, I know,
739
00:36:25.929 --> 00:36:29.530
I know who I am. And I'm, and it just
740
00:36:29.610 --> 00:36:33.739
set me on this journey of like, like being so
741
00:36:33.780 --> 00:36:37.159
much more comfortable in my own skin, doing what I
742
00:36:37.199 --> 00:36:41.909
wanted to do, not trying to, fit in elsewhere or,
743
00:36:42.639 --> 00:36:45.000
you know, it just, that was the thing that really
744
00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:46.559
set me on my path.
745
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:48.179
Took off your bonnet.
746
00:36:49.039 --> 00:36:50.980
Took off my, and then, and I would say right
747
00:36:51.239 --> 00:36:54.980
in this present day time, going through all the changes
748
00:36:55.019 --> 00:36:57.210
I'm going through, the one thing I've realized is I
749
00:36:57.329 --> 00:37:01.730
know myself better than I ever have. And I am
750
00:37:01.829 --> 00:37:06.349
so much clearer on what I want than I've ever been.
751
00:37:07.449 --> 00:37:12.380
I guess it keeps changing your whole life till you croak, right? Yeah,
752
00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:17.079
and that fluidity is so important. Yeah. When you started
753
00:37:17.199 --> 00:37:21.210
doing comedy, did you guys try different, like I feel
754
00:37:21.230 --> 00:37:24.130
like I just impersonated other comedians sometimes if I got
755
00:37:24.170 --> 00:37:28.280
excited about it, like trying to be like, Bill Hicks
756
00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:30.960
or whatever when I was like 14. And that's like,
757
00:37:31.000 --> 00:37:32.019
that's not me.
758
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:34.340
Oh my gosh. Can you get me some video of
759
00:37:34.400 --> 00:37:37.989
you 14 doing your best Bill Hicks?
760
00:37:38.349 --> 00:37:41.110
Well, I used to smoke cigarettes on stage because you
761
00:37:41.130 --> 00:37:42.030
could still do that.
762
00:37:42.070 --> 00:37:43.190
When you were 14?
763
00:37:43.190 --> 00:37:43.510
Yes.
764
00:37:43.610 --> 00:37:45.630
And I did one time get booed off stage.
765
00:37:45.989 --> 00:37:48.590
And do you have footage of this? Because I'm going
766
00:37:48.650 --> 00:37:49.369
to need to see it.
767
00:37:49.409 --> 00:37:52.219
You got booed off stage because they didn't like you smoking?
768
00:37:52.239 --> 00:37:54.739
It was a New Year's Eve show. I was 16
769
00:37:54.739 --> 00:37:58.860
and me and my boyfriend at the time did like
770
00:37:58.980 --> 00:38:02.400
two person stand up. He, he was much older. We
771
00:38:02.440 --> 00:38:04.760
said we were siblings. It was weird. But anyway, we
772
00:38:05.030 --> 00:38:08.829
were smoking and we were just very like misanthropic and negative.
773
00:38:08.869 --> 00:38:12.760
And we didn't realize that people had for this $ 100
774
00:38:12.699 --> 00:38:15.219
for this New Year's Eve gala. And everyone was making
775
00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:17.519
a real effort. And we'd barely prepared anything. And we
776
00:38:17.539 --> 00:38:20.219
were smoking. We thought we were so cool. And everyone
777
00:38:20.239 --> 00:38:23.820
was like, why is this child smoking? And so they
778
00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:28.170
started going, nah, enough. And they were right. They were like, enough.
779
00:38:28.849 --> 00:38:34.150
First of all, why aren't children smoking? As a child,
780
00:38:34.349 --> 00:38:37.050
I don't know how. Like we were watching a movie
781
00:38:37.090 --> 00:38:40.119
the other night with Max and Finn. And there was
782
00:38:40.980 --> 00:38:44.579
chewing tobacco that some of the kids in the movie
783
00:38:44.599 --> 00:38:47.400
were chewing. And Max and Fit are like, what is
784
00:38:47.460 --> 00:38:53.550
chewing tobacco? They're nine. And I was chewing tobacco. I
785
00:38:53.809 --> 00:38:57.230
was dipping. I was smoking. If I couldn't get my
786
00:38:57.289 --> 00:39:00.329
hands on any of that stuff, I would roll coffee
787
00:39:00.369 --> 00:39:03.730
grounds and typing paper. I was just like, how.
788
00:39:04.960 --> 00:39:05.820
On earth.
789
00:39:06.019 --> 00:39:09.679
I'm truly looking at them like they are aliens. You
790
00:39:09.739 --> 00:39:11.659
don't know what chewing tobacco is?
791
00:39:12.219 --> 00:39:15.719
But these younger generations are much more pure than we were,
792
00:39:15.780 --> 00:39:19.260
I think. It's not in movies as much. Like, what
793
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:21.230
were you watching? The Sandlot Kids or something?
794
00:39:21.250 --> 00:39:23.369
Yeah, we were watching Sandlot. Yeah.
795
00:39:23.429 --> 00:39:23.929
Oh, wicked.
796
00:39:23.989 --> 00:39:24.849
I want to rewatch it.
797
00:39:24.869 --> 00:39:28.130
I used to watch the Sandlot back in the day. Yeah.
798
00:39:28.449 --> 00:39:32.500
But they're just like... and they have questions about cigarettes.
799
00:39:32.579 --> 00:39:35.739
And I'm like, yeah, I guess I don't know where
800
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:39.139
they would have ever run off and experimented with anything
801
00:39:39.199 --> 00:39:44.230
like that. But because my parents were Certainly not keeping
802
00:39:44.250 --> 00:39:45.869
an eye on me.
803
00:39:45.969 --> 00:39:48.769
But cigarettes are way more taboo now than back then.
804
00:39:48.829 --> 00:39:51.590
Back then I felt like people just smoked all the time.
805
00:39:51.710 --> 00:39:55.510
It was taboo for me to be eight smoking cigarettes.
806
00:39:55.570 --> 00:39:56.150
Well, eight.
807
00:39:56.250 --> 00:39:57.130
Yeah.
808
00:39:57.929 --> 00:39:59.309
I mean, that's wild.
809
00:39:59.710 --> 00:40:03.070
My parents smoked in the house and yeah, it was very,
810
00:40:03.809 --> 00:40:05.429
it was, I mean, it was every restaurant you go
811
00:40:05.489 --> 00:40:06.889
to and yeah.
812
00:40:08.190 --> 00:40:09.550
I did not miss those days.
813
00:40:09.949 --> 00:40:12.989
Did you always have the same, style on stage or
814
00:40:13.050 --> 00:40:15.769
in the beginning where you like, Hey everybody, what's up?
815
00:40:15.869 --> 00:40:18.280
I'm take, I gotta, I can't imagine that.
816
00:40:18.929 --> 00:40:25.579
Yeah. I, I feel like, I mean, I was so
817
00:40:25.739 --> 00:40:32.780
influenced by Paula Poundstone. I always, I love Paula Poundstone's
818
00:40:32.840 --> 00:40:39.789
ability to write just such a solid, silly joke and,
819
00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:44.579
And then also be able to do the most tremendous
820
00:40:44.659 --> 00:40:45.420
crowd interaction.
821
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:47.239
All the crowd work is unbelievable.
822
00:40:47.300 --> 00:40:51.190
I mean, unreal. And I mean, she was the one
823
00:40:51.269 --> 00:40:54.869
comedian I would always go see. I would never miss
824
00:40:54.929 --> 00:40:57.429
a Paula Poundstone concert, no matter where I lived, no
825
00:40:57.449 --> 00:40:58.550
matter how old I was.
826
00:40:58.809 --> 00:40:59.150
Really?
827
00:40:59.769 --> 00:41:06.119
Oh, yeah, absolutely. And she's just ridiculous. But that was
828
00:41:06.179 --> 00:41:10.860
my goal, was to be a good... storyteller, joke writer,
829
00:41:11.039 --> 00:41:14.460
and be able to interact with the audience. And I
830
00:41:14.500 --> 00:41:16.920
don't know that I ever felt like, oh, I'm just
831
00:41:16.940 --> 00:41:20.320
a carbon copy of Paula Poundstone. You know, I was
832
00:41:20.360 --> 00:41:23.690
never in like suspenders and a bow tie or anything
833
00:41:23.710 --> 00:41:27.900
like that, which I Thank God she's still wearing to
834
00:41:27.960 --> 00:41:28.519
this day.
835
00:41:28.539 --> 00:41:29.659
Amazing.
836
00:41:29.719 --> 00:41:33.260
She is Paula Poundstone.
837
00:41:33.079 --> 00:41:33.989
Through and through.
838
00:41:34.139 --> 00:41:35.929
She was born in suspenders.
839
00:41:36.300 --> 00:41:40.650
Oh, my God. This person is Paula Poundstone. I mean,
840
00:41:40.710 --> 00:41:42.769
her name says what she is.
841
00:41:44.170 --> 00:41:44.809
You know what I mean?
842
00:41:44.829 --> 00:41:47.010
Yeah, you've got to be a comedian.
843
00:41:47.090 --> 00:41:50.530
You are Paula Poundstone. This is Paula Poundstone. Anyway, you know,
844
00:41:50.630 --> 00:41:52.710
I certainly had moments.
845
00:41:52.769 --> 00:41:53.230
Like, I was very.
846
00:41:54.449 --> 00:42:03.449
in like more recent comedy influence, I certainly loved Mitch Hedberg. Yes.
847
00:42:03.849 --> 00:42:03.929
Yeah.
848
00:42:04.030 --> 00:42:07.650
I mean, you know, even though I wasn't dry and yeah,
849
00:42:07.670 --> 00:42:09.789
it just spoke to me. It definitely spoke to me.
850
00:42:09.809 --> 00:42:14.130
It takes confidence. I think to sit, to be okay
851
00:42:14.170 --> 00:42:17.010
with silence, to be slow like that. And so I
852
00:42:17.769 --> 00:42:19.380
feel like it would take it.
853
00:42:19.809 --> 00:42:20.150
Yeah.
854
00:42:20.570 --> 00:42:23.320
I'm still not there where I can do that, but like,
855
00:42:23.769 --> 00:42:26.070
did it take you a while to settle and to
856
00:42:26.130 --> 00:42:29.269
know you had the skill to like sit in that
857
00:42:29.289 --> 00:42:30.150
and then pull people.
858
00:42:30.090 --> 00:42:30.429
Out of it?
859
00:42:31.030 --> 00:42:33.449
Well, I think for myself, like as a comedian, all
860
00:42:33.489 --> 00:42:37.059
the different things I've tried from joke writing to storytelling,
861
00:42:37.179 --> 00:42:41.639
I've done prop stuff, not like in a traditional way
862
00:42:41.679 --> 00:42:46.480
of like, I roll out of, you know, a case of, yeah.
863
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:50.429
But I want to try everything. And then I feel
864
00:42:50.489 --> 00:42:54.260
like all of those roads that you go down, you still,
865
00:42:55.409 --> 00:42:58.329
even if it's such a leap from another type of comedy,
866
00:42:58.349 --> 00:43:01.489
you still find your voice in there. And I think
867
00:43:01.530 --> 00:43:04.170
that that's what I realized was every road I went down,
868
00:43:04.730 --> 00:43:07.110
here's my voice, here's my voice. So I can do
869
00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:08.090
whatever I want to do.
870
00:43:08.539 --> 00:43:11.500
You know what I liked? I just, I keep talking
871
00:43:11.519 --> 00:43:14.400
about it because I'm obsessed, but the Pee Wee Herman documentary,
872
00:43:14.420 --> 00:43:17.400
the Paul Rubens documentary, I didn't realize that Pee Wee
873
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:21.190
started as a character who was a, a a standup
874
00:43:21.269 --> 00:43:23.789
comedian who was doing it for the first time and
875
00:43:23.829 --> 00:43:26.570
showing and had props that were his toys. He was
876
00:43:26.590 --> 00:43:29.170
kind of like, almost like a child stand. So he
877
00:43:29.210 --> 00:43:31.269
was in the Peewee suit and he'd go out and,
878
00:43:31.679 --> 00:43:34.739
and do bad standup and pull out like, you know,
879
00:43:34.760 --> 00:43:37.300
a dinosaur toy and show the audience and stuff. But
880
00:43:37.380 --> 00:43:39.519
I love that, that that was the Genesis. Yeah.
881
00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:40.019
Yeah.
882
00:43:40.340 --> 00:43:42.000
I think he started at the groundlings.
883
00:43:42.380 --> 00:43:42.659
Yeah.
884
00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:44.280
You got to watch that doc.
885
00:43:44.579 --> 00:43:46.679
I'll have to check it out. I for sure want
886
00:43:46.699 --> 00:43:47.269
to see that.
887
00:43:47.630 --> 00:43:50.170
And by the way, when I was in Nantucket, multiple people,
888
00:43:50.679 --> 00:43:53.559
were coming up to me to talk about your doc.
889
00:43:53.940 --> 00:43:54.900
Oh really?
890
00:43:54.920 --> 00:43:57.099
Yeah. They were coming up going, Hey, I just saw
891
00:43:57.159 --> 00:44:00.639
Tig's doc and I wept throughout and I was like, great.
892
00:44:01.159 --> 00:44:01.579
Yeah.
893
00:44:01.820 --> 00:44:03.500
People are talking about it.
894
00:44:03.739 --> 00:44:05.880
You find that they, uh, Oh, the new, I was
895
00:44:05.900 --> 00:44:08.239
thinking of Tig. I was thinking. Oh yeah.
896
00:44:08.300 --> 00:44:10.679
No, the Andrea Gibson documentary. Gotcha.
897
00:44:11.079 --> 00:44:12.079
I want to see it.
898
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:14.719
You will. We're going to have a screening in LA
899
00:44:14.900 --> 00:44:19.500
and then Apple bought it. So we're all very excited
900
00:44:19.599 --> 00:44:22.760
that it's going to reach a wider audience, but it's man,
901
00:44:22.989 --> 00:44:28.090
is it life affirming? And it really, I say to everyone, you,
902
00:44:28.849 --> 00:44:31.610
it's impossible to not walk out of that theater and think,
903
00:44:31.929 --> 00:44:37.070
what have I been doing with my life? I mean, true,
904
00:44:37.110 --> 00:44:40.699
but like in the most inspiring, exciting way, Of course
905
00:44:40.739 --> 00:44:45.139
you have all these emotions about Andrea and, and their
906
00:44:45.179 --> 00:44:50.369
partner Meg and, and, um, all these intense deep, but
907
00:44:50.469 --> 00:44:54.230
also so, so many funny moments, but it's just so
908
00:44:54.269 --> 00:44:58.139
beautiful and it's just still killing it on the festival circuit.
909
00:44:58.199 --> 00:44:58.880
It's crazy.
910
00:44:59.039 --> 00:45:00.840
It's crazy, crazy, crazy. Yeah.
911
00:45:00.920 --> 00:45:04.820
Well, I'm really looking forward to, to seeing it. Yeah.
912
00:45:05.039 --> 00:45:08.980
Yeah. Thanks for bringing that up because I, I, Tell
913
00:45:09.019 --> 00:45:11.679
your friends if you've seen it because it's, it's really
914
00:45:11.719 --> 00:45:17.320
worth seeing and so much like so perfectly time for
915
00:45:17.340 --> 00:45:21.460
a big heaping pile of compassion in this world.
916
00:45:21.840 --> 00:45:22.260
Yes.
917
00:45:22.699 --> 00:45:26.179
Is what I've seen happen through this film.
918
00:45:26.480 --> 00:45:29.880
I kind of feel like, cause it is mainly teenagers
919
00:45:29.960 --> 00:45:32.820
and kids that are trying on different personalities like that.
920
00:45:33.059 --> 00:45:35.500
And I kind of feel like that's, that's a pretty
921
00:45:35.559 --> 00:45:40.260
healthy way to be. Cause it's, We're not our personalities
922
00:45:40.300 --> 00:45:43.110
like that is even if it's so authentic to you
923
00:45:43.179 --> 00:45:46.090
and not on purpose, it is sort of a performance
924
00:45:46.150 --> 00:45:50.110
or it's an accumulation of influences and experiences. And there
925
00:45:50.170 --> 00:45:54.070
is like a core. Anyway, I just think maybe we
926
00:45:54.110 --> 00:45:56.230
should all be a bit more fluid about our personalities.
927
00:45:56.269 --> 00:45:58.409
You could wake up tomorrow, brand new day. You go,
928
00:45:58.510 --> 00:46:01.900
I'm really sarcastic today or like I'm I'm going to
929
00:46:01.909 --> 00:46:03.030
be a ray of sunshine.
930
00:46:03.050 --> 00:46:06.559
Yeah. Yeah. Well, you don't really know how you feel
931
00:46:06.599 --> 00:46:09.340
about something or if you're into something unless you try it.
932
00:46:09.500 --> 00:46:14.429
So I'm always like, I always think, especially younger people, like,
933
00:46:14.510 --> 00:46:17.510
why not sign up for this thing or join this
934
00:46:17.590 --> 00:46:20.889
club or play that sport or be in that play? Like,
935
00:46:21.449 --> 00:46:22.369
give it a shot.
936
00:46:22.530 --> 00:46:27.050
And I stand by there is nothing better than finding
937
00:46:27.150 --> 00:46:30.269
out what you cannot stand and who you are not.
938
00:46:30.789 --> 00:46:34.429
Even more so than who you are. you know, like
939
00:46:34.650 --> 00:46:37.809
I love finding out the stuff I, I never want
940
00:46:37.829 --> 00:46:41.099
to do again, or I don't want to be in
941
00:46:41.179 --> 00:46:45.900
that world, you know, or whatever, whatever it is. I'm like,
942
00:46:46.059 --> 00:46:48.440
I love that as much as I love finding things
943
00:46:48.500 --> 00:46:50.940
that I, that make me happy. Yeah.
944
00:46:50.980 --> 00:46:54.489
We tell ourselves so young, we start telling ourselves stories
945
00:46:54.550 --> 00:46:57.269
about ourselves. Like I'm bad at math or like, I'm,
946
00:46:57.769 --> 00:47:00.409
you know, I'm funny or I'm, you know, and, and
947
00:47:00.449 --> 00:47:04.179
then that's like a little coffin for your self you
948
00:47:04.199 --> 00:47:05.599
know you gotta break out of it.
949
00:47:06.260 --> 00:47:10.239
I do stand by i am bad at math and
950
00:47:10.969 --> 00:47:13.369
my brain just oozes out of my ears as soon
951
00:47:13.409 --> 00:47:17.250
as i look at x plus y times the blah
952
00:47:17.369 --> 00:47:18.769
blah blah.
953
00:47:18.929 --> 00:47:21.550
Yeah blah blah you just get a handle on math
954
00:47:21.610 --> 00:47:24.449
in school and then they introduce letters and words to
955
00:47:24.530 --> 00:47:27.530
it and it's like it's not fair why are we yeah.
956
00:47:27.289 --> 00:47:32.469
Yeah And now my mom is being totally herself, but
957
00:47:32.570 --> 00:47:35.719
she has also been single for a very long time.
958
00:47:36.219 --> 00:47:38.960
There's something to be said for the single life in
959
00:47:39.000 --> 00:47:41.039
terms of really being yourself.
960
00:47:41.099 --> 00:47:41.659
Yeah.
961
00:47:42.079 --> 00:47:44.460
Has your mother ever gotten on apps to date?
962
00:47:45.280 --> 00:47:47.860
She did it back in the day. I think when
963
00:47:47.900 --> 00:47:52.699
she met her first boyfriend after divorce, it wasn't in
964
00:47:52.760 --> 00:47:56.070
an app, but you used to put ads in the newspaper. Wow.
965
00:47:57.039 --> 00:48:06.050
That's a dream. Yeah, no pictures, nothing. You're just looking
966
00:48:06.090 --> 00:48:10.230
at each other's grammar. But yeah, I believe they met
967
00:48:10.250 --> 00:48:10.670
that way.
968
00:48:10.690 --> 00:48:13.730
Didn't there used to be a thing where you leave
969
00:48:14.269 --> 00:48:19.039
a voicemail that's like, hi, I'm Mae. I like, you know, facts.
970
00:48:19.119 --> 00:48:21.159
I think maybe back in the day there was something
971
00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:22.380
like that. And wait a minute.
972
00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:22.500
What?
973
00:48:23.860 --> 00:48:24.219
Right.
974
00:48:24.360 --> 00:48:26.519
So people would put an ad in the paper and
975
00:48:26.539 --> 00:48:28.960
you don't have a clue what this person looks like. Yeah.
976
00:48:28.980 --> 00:48:29.039
No.
977
00:48:29.300 --> 00:48:32.519
You just show up and there is someone that likes
978
00:48:32.539 --> 00:48:37.090
pina coladas and getting caught in the rain. Yeah.
979
00:48:37.150 --> 00:48:42.309
When I first came out, Craigslist was super popular, especially,
980
00:48:42.369 --> 00:48:44.090
I don't know if it was just in LA, but
981
00:48:44.789 --> 00:48:48.960
everybody was on Craigslist at the time. And I found
982
00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:52.659
like a, soccer team and a softball league. I found
983
00:48:53.199 --> 00:48:56.099
Ultimate Frisbee. I'm still friends with some of the people
984
00:48:56.119 --> 00:49:01.260
I met during these Craigslist days. But I went on
985
00:49:01.300 --> 00:49:05.929
a couple dates via Craigslist ads and it was the
986
00:49:05.969 --> 00:49:07.170
no picture days.
987
00:49:07.980 --> 00:49:11.940
And was it shocking when you arrived?
988
00:49:12.260 --> 00:49:16.429
I mean, not one person was. It wasn't even about looks,
989
00:49:16.530 --> 00:49:20.599
but not one person was my type or had. anything
990
00:49:20.679 --> 00:49:23.139
in common I went on three.
991
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:25.920
Dates what a shot in the dark could not get.
992
00:49:25.860 --> 00:49:29.900
Out of all of them fast enough yeah and then
993
00:49:30.019 --> 00:49:32.159
I was like I'm not doing this.
994
00:49:32.059 --> 00:49:34.719
Again do you know what I think I'm remembering this
995
00:49:34.760 --> 00:49:38.690
story correctly but of course who knows but let's just
996
00:49:38.730 --> 00:49:42.510
assume I am You know, the comedian and writer, Jesse Klein.
997
00:49:42.530 --> 00:49:44.349
Oh, actually. Okay.
998
00:49:44.409 --> 00:49:49.030
She's so funny, but she, she, um, I ran into her.
999
00:49:49.050 --> 00:49:52.570
I can't remember where I ran into her, but this
1000
00:49:52.610 --> 00:49:58.019
was several years ago. She saw a guy in like
1001
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:01.940
an airport or a grocery store or something. Probably, you know,
1002
00:50:02.099 --> 00:50:03.860
probably an airport. I think they were running to their
1003
00:50:03.880 --> 00:50:09.199
flights and she thought to herself, what if he saw
1004
00:50:09.300 --> 00:50:12.190
me And felt the same because she thought she saw
1005
00:50:12.210 --> 00:50:16.929
a little some look in each other's eye type thing.
1006
00:50:16.949 --> 00:50:19.989
He put an ad in the paper and they reconnected.
1007
00:50:20.309 --> 00:50:21.230
No.
1008
00:50:21.289 --> 00:50:21.650
Yes.
1009
00:50:22.230 --> 00:50:28.820
Yes. Yes. This is an actual story. And they weren't
1010
00:50:28.880 --> 00:50:32.019
a match ultimately. I think he was like a tennis player.
1011
00:50:32.239 --> 00:50:34.400
I can't believe I remember the details. I was so
1012
00:50:34.460 --> 00:50:40.800
blown away because they did not talk. Wow. They just glanced.
1013
00:50:40.820 --> 00:50:42.519
You know the actor Coleman Domingo?
1014
00:50:43.380 --> 00:50:44.139
Yeah.
1015
00:50:44.500 --> 00:50:46.820
He has been with his husband now, I think, like
1016
00:50:46.820 --> 00:50:50.639
14 years. They walked past each other on a street
1017
00:50:51.139 --> 00:50:54.409
and kind of both clocked each other and did, I
1018
00:50:54.429 --> 00:50:57.849
don't know, maybe it was Craigslist. One of those sites,
1019
00:50:57.969 --> 00:51:02.829
they put a missed connection in there and somehow they
1020
00:51:03.190 --> 00:51:08.559
saw it and got together. Wow. I mean, it's like
1021
00:51:08.760 --> 00:51:11.440
a needle in a haystack. That's like crazy.
1022
00:51:11.840 --> 00:51:15.260
We got to bring that back, the missed connections. There
1023
00:51:15.280 --> 00:51:16.079
must be still a thing.
1024
00:51:16.099 --> 00:51:18.059
Boy, have we gotten off track here.
1025
00:51:18.199 --> 00:51:20.239
There's nowhere for missed, I don't know where people go
1026
00:51:20.260 --> 00:51:21.480
for missed connections now.
1027
00:51:21.840 --> 00:51:22.340
There's no place.
1028
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:23.679
There has to be a website or something.
1029
00:51:23.719 --> 00:51:26.849
Yeah, yeah. But that was a big thing on Craigslist, too,
1030
00:51:26.869 --> 00:51:29.070
was the whole Miss Connections page.
1031
00:51:29.090 --> 00:51:32.070
Let's start a handsome Miss Connection website.
1032
00:51:32.250 --> 00:51:33.010
There we are.
1033
00:51:33.090 --> 00:51:33.809
We found it.
1034
00:51:34.070 --> 00:51:36.489
Oh, no. Another thing on the list that I don't
1035
00:51:36.510 --> 00:51:37.909
know if we're going to get to it.
1036
00:51:39.309 --> 00:51:41.489
Well, should we hear what Allison has to say, even
1037
00:51:41.510 --> 00:51:45.179
though we went so far away? That's what we do here.
1038
00:51:45.239 --> 00:51:47.699
That is what we do here. That is the business
1039
00:51:47.739 --> 00:51:51.469
we are in. Allison, tell us. Tell us.
1040
00:51:52.130 --> 00:51:55.440
Yeah, I've honestly probably done that a bunch. But a
1041
00:51:55.480 --> 00:52:00.039
time that comes to mind is when I was in college.
1042
00:52:00.940 --> 00:52:05.260
I did a semester abroad in Glasgow, Scotland. So I
1043
00:52:05.579 --> 00:52:08.789
went to a really small school, CalArts. It was super
1044
00:52:08.869 --> 00:52:15.730
incestuous and gossipy. And when I did this semester abroad
1045
00:52:15.849 --> 00:52:19.389
at an even smaller school, the Royal Scottish Academy of
1046
00:52:19.449 --> 00:52:25.130
Music and Drama, I made a conscious decision to just
1047
00:52:25.250 --> 00:52:31.989
have a more free personality, I guess. I just didn't
1048
00:52:32.090 --> 00:52:36.849
want to be self-conscious in any way. And I figured,
1049
00:52:36.869 --> 00:52:40.099
you know, I'm just going to, you know, I'm just
1050
00:52:40.139 --> 00:52:41.559
going to be going to school with these people for
1051
00:52:41.599 --> 00:52:42.940
like three to four months.
1052
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:44.139
Who cares?
1053
00:52:44.199 --> 00:52:47.199
Like, what if I got to lose? I should just
1054
00:52:47.300 --> 00:52:52.510
be like the freest version of of myself. And, um,
1055
00:52:53.289 --> 00:52:57.190
so I did, I just would like the whole time
1056
00:52:57.250 --> 00:53:01.250
I was in Glasgow, Scotland, I was having honestly the
1057
00:53:01.409 --> 00:53:05.929
best time and, and almost being like my truest self
1058
00:53:06.190 --> 00:53:09.610
literally would, you know, with headphones in, I would dance
1059
00:53:09.710 --> 00:53:15.469
down the streets, just dancing down the sidewalks. And in class,
1060
00:53:15.510 --> 00:53:21.909
I was always like the first person to, uh, Oh.
1061
00:53:21.949 --> 00:53:22.329
My God.
1062
00:53:22.409 --> 00:53:25.190
Maxie wants to be involved in this question as well.
1063
00:53:25.510 --> 00:53:31.659
The first person to volunteer to try something like improvised capoeira,
1064
00:53:32.059 --> 00:53:36.800
just like put me in coach, like game for anything.
1065
00:53:36.820 --> 00:53:39.619
And the students there were like, are you like this
1066
00:53:39.739 --> 00:53:43.940
all the time? And I was like, no, not really.
1067
00:53:44.039 --> 00:53:46.309
But once I did it.
1068
00:53:46.309 --> 00:53:47.090
This semester.
1069
00:53:47.190 --> 00:53:50.969
I would say the effect it had was... that I
1070
00:53:51.030 --> 00:53:54.849
realized that that actually is kind of my truest self
1071
00:53:54.949 --> 00:53:58.670
and my truest personality. And so I just tried to
1072
00:53:58.710 --> 00:54:03.929
kind of retain a lot of that in my life, uh,
1073
00:54:03.989 --> 00:54:04.750
moving forward.
1074
00:54:04.789 --> 00:54:07.750
And I think, I think that I have, it's a
1075
00:54:07.769 --> 00:54:11.000
good way to be anyway. Um, that's great.
1076
00:54:11.219 --> 00:54:12.349
Love you. Bye.
1077
00:54:13.099 --> 00:54:14.619
Love you. Mean it. Yeah.
1078
00:54:14.960 --> 00:54:17.480
And you come across people, uh, in your life too
1079
00:54:17.519 --> 00:54:18.500
that help bring that.
1080
00:54:18.420 --> 00:54:20.460
Out of you as well that's always nice it is
1081
00:54:20.519 --> 00:54:23.440
weird when somebody brings out a side of you that
1082
00:54:24.260 --> 00:54:27.550
yeah you rarely to never see.
1083
00:54:27.329 --> 00:54:31.530
The goofiest side the better like I went to a
1084
00:54:31.750 --> 00:54:34.320
dinner party with my friend Matt and I guess we'd
1085
00:54:34.340 --> 00:54:37.519
been very respectable at the dinner party talking to people
1086
00:54:37.539 --> 00:54:39.840
we'd never met you know getting to know people and
1087
00:54:39.860 --> 00:54:41.460
then we left and as we were walking to the
1088
00:54:41.579 --> 00:54:44.760
uber he he goes time to be weird and I
1089
00:54:44.780 --> 00:54:47.420
was like yes that's what I want in a friend
1090
00:54:48.500 --> 00:54:50.539
oh that's a great answer though from her.
1091
00:54:50.480 --> 00:54:53.159
Yeah yeah it is it's nice to feel free like
1092
00:54:53.219 --> 00:54:56.929
that where you're like just not really editing yourself and
1093
00:54:57.809 --> 00:55:03.900
yeah yeah I love Come in, coach. Come in. I
1094
00:55:03.920 --> 00:55:06.730
think about my days of attempting to be straight. That
1095
00:55:06.769 --> 00:55:09.230
was a fun time. That was a fun challenge.
1096
00:55:09.250 --> 00:55:12.500
I can't accept that. I can't accept that.
1097
