Speaker 1: Hazy. Everybody. Welcome to Access Podcast, the podcast about podcast producers. See,
Speaker 1: we've got two ladies on the show who you might
Speaker 1: not know their names, but you've probably laughed at their
Speaker 1: jokes before because they're both comedians and writers, Morgan Murphy
Speaker 1: and Robin Shure. So have you laughed at two Broke
Speaker 1: Rols before, then you've laughed at Morgan Murphy. Sure, we're
Speaker 1: going to talk to them in just a second, but
Speaker 1: check out their podcast. But I was at a date
Speaker 1: at the Alcove and we got a free piece of
Speaker 1: cake out of nowhere, and I was like, is it
Speaker 1: because they recognized the gentleman that I was with or
Speaker 1: is it because they recognized my annoying voice? I just
Speaker 1: I couldn't figure out which one it was. I've had
Speaker 1: that happen before at Alcove, they have gotten a free Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're just nice. You had to read into it and
Speaker 1: see something negative about you, Robin, Welcome, Welcome to the show, ladies.
Speaker 1: Thanks thanks for having us. I've got many many questions
Speaker 1: for you and about the podcast. Lois feelis the podcast?
Speaker 1: First of all, I just want to say that when
Speaker 1: they first I first got an email about this podcast,
Speaker 1: I had not heard of it, and I went to
Speaker 1: look at who you've had on, you know, and just
Speaker 1: to pick an episode, and I saw the name Sam
Speaker 1: Pancake on there, and I was like, I'm in Sama,
Speaker 1: we gotta team that. We grew up in the same
Speaker 1: town in West Virginia, so like, I know his family
Speaker 1: from way back. So that was really great. But for
Speaker 1: those people who don't know about Los feel as the neighborhood,
Speaker 1: what can you tell people about it? Um? I guess
Speaker 1: if people aren't from the area and not familiar with that,
Speaker 1: imagine you know what you would think of as Los
Speaker 1: Angeles and then go to like the the east end
Speaker 1: of wherever you put that circle, and we live on
Speaker 1: the edge of that. But what about the neighborhood itself.
Speaker 1: I'll be my last experience in Los feel as I
Speaker 1: lived in Hollywood. I went to brunch with my wife
Speaker 1: and the woman next to us ordered egg white omelet
Speaker 1: with an office auto sliced near the eggs but not
Speaker 1: touching the eggs. I was like, oh, that's fancy. Well,
Speaker 1: you know, you always want to make sure your avocados
Speaker 1: are adjacent. But she you know, I think specificity is
Speaker 1: part of the podcast and also part of the city.
Speaker 1: The neighborhood. People are real specific here and and that's
Speaker 1: what we try to do on the show is focus
Speaker 1: on the minut show, which is it sounds like what
Speaker 1: that lady was doing, I would have laughed. But there
Speaker 1: are people like that here for sure, and you get that.
Speaker 1: I think anywhere, uh in a neighborhood that's sort of
Speaker 1: we are cute and precious but also aware of it,
Speaker 1: aware of it. I think, yeah, well we're aware of it.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that like a lady ordering that in
Speaker 1: Venice would be aware of it or like, I mean,
Speaker 1: we love Venice. But I'm saying like, at least we
Speaker 1: can make fun of ourselves and say we're you know,
Speaker 1: we're hipstory or whatever, but we at least we know it.
Speaker 1: You know. So if you're going to describe the neighborhood
Speaker 1: to to somebody that didn't know and and and basically
Speaker 1: why you would want to do a show about the neighborhood,
Speaker 1: what would you tell them? I'd say that, uh, well,
Speaker 1: I mean it doesn't it's funny because doing the show
Speaker 1: at the neighborhood. I just wanted to do a show
Speaker 1: about with a friend talking about things that weren't going
Speaker 1: to exhaust me. Like, you experience your neighborhood every day,
Speaker 1: so it's easy to talk about it every week. And uh,
Speaker 1: I'd say, like imagine, like the podcast is like you
Speaker 1: meet the local hardware store owner and you meet the
Speaker 1: lady who bakes your croissant that you get at the
Speaker 1: you know, at the at the Delhi, And it's a
Speaker 1: little bit of that. It's like what if what if
Speaker 1: you know everyone that you sort of come into contact
Speaker 1: with on a daily basis, you finally get to hear
Speaker 1: him chat for a while and you know, or hear
Speaker 1: people talk about your your same concerns like why you know,
Speaker 1: why are the parking meters so expensive? Or why are
Speaker 1: the curbs so high? And I feel like also just
Speaker 1: in terms of explaining it, it's like sort of a
Speaker 1: little small town kind of hamlet with like a lot
Speaker 1: of artists and writers and people in the business, but
Speaker 1: also people not in the business. And um, I think
Speaker 1: it has like a nice we're just far away enough
Speaker 1: that it doesn't feel so oppressively Hollywood. I go to
Speaker 1: a yoga class sometimes in Hollywood. It takes me thirty
Speaker 1: five to forty minutes to get there. Um, so I
Speaker 1: don't even venture west unless I have to you, um,
Speaker 1: And it used to not take that long, but I've
Speaker 1: really become more provincial as the traffic has gotten worse
Speaker 1: and worse. And I find that everything I need is
Speaker 1: all my friends and um, Like, my mother's on the
Speaker 1: West Side and I just by definition don't see her
Speaker 1: as much. Um And so my friends are here, and
Speaker 1: I feel like it's an artist driven community, and it's
Speaker 1: also an activist driven community, which is nice, but it's
Speaker 1: also like a b whatever you want kind of community.
Speaker 1: And there's no there's no sort of hard and fast
Speaker 1: rules about anything here, you know, Like I don't go
Speaker 1: anywhere for yoga and I barely leave my house and
Speaker 1: it's a community for me and they here. Yeah, when
Speaker 1: we live in Hollywood, I had friends that lived in
Speaker 1: Santa Monica, and I told I told someone I see
Speaker 1: my friends in the Bay Area more than I see them,
Speaker 1: because I just don't feel like one all the way over. Also,
Speaker 1: there's just a lot of you know, one thing about
Speaker 1: l A in general is that you run into a
Speaker 1: lot of folks who were in the business but aren't
Speaker 1: the people that you you know, you think about as
Speaker 1: being in the business, the people who really make it run,
Speaker 1: the writers like yourselves, comedians, uh, stand ups Uh. The
Speaker 1: neighborhoods full of a lot of those kind of folks.
Speaker 1: And I'm noticing there's a there's a kind of there
Speaker 1: is a it's an almost genre now of the l
Speaker 1: A podcast. You know, we're folks in l A who
Speaker 1: were in the business or you know, and start a podcast.
Speaker 1: Um have you Do you feel like there's a community
Speaker 1: down there now of that. I mean, there's definitely a
Speaker 1: lot of people who have podcasts in comedy, and there's
Speaker 1: a lot of people in comedy and loose feelings. Um
Speaker 1: so yeah, I mean I mathematically that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't do a lot like pockets, but I feel like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like all my you know, most of my
Speaker 1: friends have one um and they're all great. I feel
Speaker 1: like if you have something to say, get you know,
Speaker 1: and you have a way to say it and you
Speaker 1: find you find that it could be. One thing I
Speaker 1: like about our podcast. The best feedback I get from
Speaker 1: our podcast is people say it's very very useful, and
Speaker 1: that to me is kind of the biggest compliment. Like
Speaker 1: the funny part. I'm glad it's enjoyable to listen to,
Speaker 1: but it's like helpful. It's nice that people now know
Speaker 1: that they can bring in their use batteries to Valor
Speaker 1: hardware and get them recycled. Like just things in your
Speaker 1: immediate area that you wouldn't necessarily know about. And there
Speaker 1: are plenty of other podcasts that you can go on
Speaker 1: to listen to the evolution of somebody's career if you
Speaker 1: want to. But that's not that's not going to be this.
Speaker 1: We'd rather have famous people. If we're gonna have a
Speaker 1: famous person on, we want them to talk about street
Speaker 1: cleaning in their neighborhood. We don't necessarily care about what
Speaker 1: show they're on and what show they want to promote.
Speaker 1: That's it's just not a Hollywood podcast in that way.
Speaker 1: Why did you two decide to do one together? What? What?
Speaker 1: What's When was the moment that you said we got
Speaker 1: to do a podcast? Well, we're we live like you know,
Speaker 1: just houses apart, and uh, I think there was like
Speaker 1: a long time where people would come to my house
Speaker 1: and asked me if I knew Robin, and they go
Speaker 1: to her house and ask if if she knew me,
Speaker 1: And we had all these mutual friends, and I had
Speaker 1: like the sliver of the idea for a podcast about
Speaker 1: the neighborhood, but it wasn't until Robin and I finally
Speaker 1: connected after like a year and a half of living
Speaker 1: five houses apart, that we started just talking and I realized,
Speaker 1: like that banter to me is that's the show? Like it?
Speaker 1: It was more like at Thedea for the show and
Speaker 1: then and then met Robin and was like, Oh, that's
Speaker 1: that thing that you know and I sort of thought of,
Speaker 1: but it's yeah, it's just two friends talking about, you know,
Speaker 1: the day to day stuff in the in a very
Speaker 1: small radius. And it seems that people like people. It's
Speaker 1: fun to get text from people throughout the day that
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, this is closing and this is opening
Speaker 1: and da da da da, Like it feels like right now, Um,
Speaker 1: it's really fun to have to feel like part of
Speaker 1: something um on a community level. I really enjoy that.
Speaker 1: And um, yeah, Morgan must have seen in me somebody
Speaker 1: who can talk endlessly about this place because I've lived
Speaker 1: here for so long that I just didn't. You don't
Speaker 1: realize when you're in your own neighborhood how much you
Speaker 1: know about it and don't even discuss you just kind
Speaker 1: of absorb it. Well, they're obviously people listen to this
Speaker 1: podcast who don't live in the neighborhood and like it
Speaker 1: and they like you to do you think part of
Speaker 1: what's the charm and good about this show? And I
Speaker 1: think a good podcast built empathy and and and when
Speaker 1: you've done improv and stand up, you know, you know
Speaker 1: how to you know kind of do that? Do you
Speaker 1: feel like that that is a tribute to to also
Speaker 1: why you do it? Um? I mean I think there's
Speaker 1: a well, it's funny that you would I like the
Speaker 1: relationship empathy instead of but I think there's why I
Speaker 1: do it is like is kind of to not have
Speaker 1: to be a stand up. I know that sounds weird,
Speaker 1: but that makes perfect sense. Yeah, it's sort of. It's
Speaker 1: it's um, you know, I don't have a funny take
Speaker 1: on you know, on on on everything, and sometimes there
Speaker 1: are things I just earnestly care about. And you know,
Speaker 1: there's certainly times like I think I'll be like a
Speaker 1: little bit snarky, but there's not. If I want people
Speaker 1: to go support the local high school, like I don't
Speaker 1: have a bit about that, right, We've been I was
Speaker 1: I don't know about you, Morgan, but I've been asked
Speaker 1: before if the whole thing was a bit, and I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: like not at all. Where I'm going to that homecoming game,
Speaker 1: I'm wearing a Marshall High sweatshirt. It and everybody who
Speaker 1: from the podcast who joined us at the homecoming game
Speaker 1: all felt the same way, which was I miss going
Speaker 1: to high school football games, Like I wish that was
Speaker 1: more part of my life. And that's kind of all
Speaker 1: we're trying to do. And I like that. I like
Speaker 1: that it comes across as empathetic, and I like that
Speaker 1: that's the vibe that you get because that's certainly I mean,
Speaker 1: we all, we all live in the we all live
Speaker 1: in this community, and we want to be really really
Speaker 1: careful to to keep it super positive. Because let's just
Speaker 1: say I were to get on and say I got
Speaker 1: a bad haircut at this place, or I had a
Speaker 1: bad meal at this place, I still have to go
Speaker 1: out and be in the neighborhood. I don't want that
Speaker 1: bad mouthing his business, you know what I mean, his
Speaker 1: or her business. Yeah, And I don't mean to get
Speaker 1: too heavy, but you know, I teach a university class,
Speaker 1: A couple of them on podcasting and what we're talking
Speaker 1: yesterday about why podcasting is so popular now. And one
Speaker 1: of the reasons I think is is just that that
Speaker 1: positivity that you know, it's really hard to go anywhere
Speaker 1: where there's not arguing, you know, social media, you know, family,
Speaker 1: there's just there's just a lot of arguing now. And
Speaker 1: for the most people who are choosing to do a
Speaker 1: podcast are doing it for a reason, a fun reason,
Speaker 1: or a reason that uh it is positive or educational.
Speaker 1: And that that's another reason why I think people like
Speaker 1: to listen to you, even if they're not from Los Felas,
Speaker 1: because it's it's just nice to hear two people, you know,
Speaker 1: have a nice conversation. I mean, and yeah, we really
Speaker 1: do love where we live. We really are friends, and
Speaker 1: we do have um, we do have a lot of
Speaker 1: fun doing it. And you know, just to give you
Speaker 1: an example, and I think this is funny and I
Speaker 1: don't know if we're going to talk about it on
Speaker 1: the show, but we had we were on a couple
Speaker 1: of months ago in October, right after Morgan's birthday. We
Speaker 1: had a guest on and the guest was complaining about
Speaker 1: the prices of meal at a diner. We felt the
Speaker 1: prices at this diner were too high, and it's the
Speaker 1: only time we've ever said anything remotely critical on the show,
Speaker 1: and I felt like, oh my god, I felt bad. Whatever.
Speaker 1: Then we get a phone call at our hotline. We
Speaker 1: have a neighborhood tipline, and somebody from the somebody from
Speaker 1: the diner called in and said, I own the diner.
Speaker 1: Here the prices, and he went through the prices. I
Speaker 1: didn't listen to the phone call. But here's the thing,
Speaker 1: it's an even bigger thing, which is that later I
Speaker 1: found that that it was one of our listeners, who's
Speaker 1: my dear friend, who called in the prank call to
Speaker 1: pretend like he was the owner of that diner. And
Speaker 1: it was hilarious because he knows that we always try
Speaker 1: to stay positive, so he totally called us out um
Speaker 1: at the one place that we were a little bit critical.
Speaker 1: And I love them for it, but it was so
Speaker 1: funny to me. It's getting back to Morgan's crank Yancher's roots.
Speaker 1: Is that is that it? So? I guess so I
Speaker 1: got really cranked and yanked by that. I really believed
Speaker 1: it full throttle. So you've been doing this podcast for
Speaker 1: a while. I've got a couple of friends that are
Speaker 1: comedians that I helped. I've helped start a podcast in
Speaker 1: l a couple of couple of folks like that, and
Speaker 1: they're at the point where I'm starting to get phone calls.
Speaker 1: And I've worked in this radio business with morning shows
Speaker 1: a long time where they're starting to call me about
Speaker 1: each other because because podcast is a show, it can
Speaker 1: be a grind at times. Does that, um, ever feel
Speaker 1: like a grind to you, guys, or a job where
Speaker 1: you're you're kind of like one of you is like,
Speaker 1: all right, you gotta do the show, and the other
Speaker 1: ones like, uh yeah, I just I'm tired. I don't
Speaker 1: want to do anything right now. Um, I mean kind
Speaker 1: of like I I show up for the show, but
Speaker 1: I don't do like real work. I just like to
Speaker 1: be told stories. And Robin doesn't like to do doesn't
Speaker 1: like that I do that, And no, that's not true.
Speaker 1: I think in the beginning and as we go through
Speaker 1: it like we're trying to figure out a good balance
Speaker 1: and um, and it's it's not it's it's a marriage.
Speaker 1: What are you gonna do? It's a marriage. Sometimes we
Speaker 1: tick each other off sometimes we love each other. But
Speaker 1: I think at the end of the day, it's like,
Speaker 1: I know, I enjoy some of the administrative aspects of it,
Speaker 1: and then there's times in the month where I don't um.
Speaker 1: But but overall, it's like, we have a wonderful producer.
Speaker 1: We have a wonderful producer named Lorie Wheeler, and she
Speaker 1: helps us tremendously, and Lorie's Lorie's beyond essential, and I think,
Speaker 1: you know, the stuff that's the stuff is just like
Speaker 1: calling stories throughout the week, and what we did when
Speaker 1: we were on Feral Audio, we were four times, we
Speaker 1: were we were once a week on that network, and
Speaker 1: now we're moving over to All Things Comedies and we're
Speaker 1: gonna do the show twice a month, and that's mostly well,
Speaker 1: let's be as of us and our schedules and our
Speaker 1: careers outside of the podcast. But that's also because there's
Speaker 1: not enough local news to support four podcasts a week.
Speaker 1: So maybe we'll do two and then like a third,
Speaker 1: you know, bonus round if we if we feel the need,
Speaker 1: but we're definitely gonna we're doing two a month, and
Speaker 1: I feel like those will be like choc a block
Speaker 1: of great information. I do really lazy prep once in
Speaker 1: a while for my shows, and this was a really
Speaker 1: lazy prep question. But I thought it was funny. Morgan
Speaker 1: on you on your Wikipedia there the one line that
Speaker 1: is just the best. It just says Morgan was raised
Speaker 1: Jewish by her mother. But then I have about Mitzvah,
Speaker 1: she attended the Catholic high school. That's hilarious. I love that.
Speaker 1: I love looking at like facts about your like I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't like Google myself, but every sap and I'll
Speaker 1: we'll look at that Wikipedia and like it's it's always
Speaker 1: it's always surprising what somebody when When did I say that?
Speaker 1: Was it ever in your stand up? I don't know. Maybe,
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that's but that's a fact about me.
Speaker 1: That's what happens when you have a Wikipedia page I
Speaker 1: don't even have. I know you don't. You were harder,
Speaker 1: you're you're by the way your Twitter game, Robin has
Speaker 1: stepped up a bit. It was not the best. I disagree,
Speaker 1: you know what it is. I have not found my
Speaker 1: Twitter voice. That's the bottom line, is like I don't
Speaker 1: feel that's my favorite those people. Everyone, everyone, everyone goes
Speaker 1: I'm not good at Twitter. I'm not I'm not good
Speaker 1: at twitter, like it kind of is, though I think
Speaker 1: people like Morrigan, I'm a few other guys i've dated,
Speaker 1: I've been really good at it, and I just like I.
Speaker 1: If it were up to me, I would talk about
Speaker 1: Florabama Shore all the time or clause the show clause.
Speaker 1: But what makes you think I've stepped up my game?
Speaker 1: I mean, I appreciate the compliment. Well, it's just a
Speaker 1: little even a little more regular with it. Well, I'm
Speaker 1: mostly retweeting stuff about the podcast. Well, hey, that's something
Speaker 1: I tweeted the other night that I was really missing
Speaker 1: through your life, which was which is Our? Which was
Speaker 1: our neighborhood rose Yogurt story that closed, So it's tweeting
Speaker 1: from the heart. So I'm upset. I got a sketch.
Speaker 1: I love Sketch Fest in San Francisco. I didn't realize
Speaker 1: that the hills of stage reading that was yours. I
Speaker 1: remember seeing. I didn't go that's awesome, though, I mean
Speaker 1: that you would do that. So obviously you have an
Speaker 1: affinity for bad TV, and that makes me very happy.
Speaker 1: It makes me like you a lot. I love Robin
Speaker 1: and I love bad TV. The problem is we don't
Speaker 1: love the same bad TV. It's we are we are,
Speaker 1: we are not compact, Like I'm the bachelor, she's the
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know who are the people on
Speaker 1: the boat below deck below death or something. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: feel like I feel like I you left my house
Speaker 1: once and then a week later I had like every
Speaker 1: below deck had been recorded, Like it wasn't you like
Speaker 1: a series recording like real sports? It was upsetting. Below
Speaker 1: deck is worth it, that's worth the bottom. And Yeah,
Speaker 1: I really like bad television. I think because because it's
Speaker 1: what I do for a living. When I watched television,
Speaker 1: Let's just say, as to watch a sitcom, a single
Speaker 1: camera sitcom on a network television station, I can see
Speaker 1: the seams. I can see exactly how it's made. It's
Speaker 1: not it's like it's like a bus men's holiday. Why
Speaker 1: would you want to come home from work and sit
Speaker 1: and watch your work? You know what I mean? No,
Speaker 1: I I'm the same way. I don't. I hate that
Speaker 1: I have to listen to some of my podcast because
Speaker 1: it's all I do at work. Uh. And the same
Speaker 1: thing with radio, Like my wife hates listening to the
Speaker 1: radio with me because I'm always like, oh, these terrible
Speaker 1: hack horrible, you know, just just going off on it.
Speaker 1: What's the blow deck? I got? What's another one I
Speaker 1: need to watch? I'm back on America's Next Top Model.
Speaker 1: By the way, since Tire's back, that's some good bad
Speaker 1: TV right there. Like a teen mom, she loves Team
Speaker 1: I do. I've I've been following I mean the team.
Speaker 1: It's it is weird because I'm thirty six and now
Speaker 1: all the teen moms have like three kids. Like I've
Speaker 1: been following these therapists Grandma. It's really crazy. So but
Speaker 1: I think it's actually think it's a really well made show.
Speaker 1: I think Catfish is really made. I started watching Catfish
Speaker 1: at Morrigan's house. Um uh, the entire Bravo Cannon is
Speaker 1: really mostly what I watched. My my TV is pretty
Speaker 1: much always on Channel two thirty seven, which is Bravo
Speaker 1: vander Pump Rules. Don't get me started. It's so good. Uh.
Speaker 1: I could do that all day, talk this stuff. Anyway,
Speaker 1: back to the podcast. You guys are now on the network.
Speaker 1: You're on All Things Comedy Comedy? Is that is that
Speaker 1: a little more pressure? Is that exciting? I know, Morgan,
Speaker 1: you did the poker podcast that they do. Um, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know that it's so funny because I don't I
Speaker 1: don't think you know, the the comedian banter like isn't
Speaker 1: my forte but I but yeah, it's exciting. Um I think, um,
Speaker 1: you know our Madrigal and Bill or old friends, and
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's nice also kind of people who
Speaker 1: are familiar with the area, so it's nice to to
Speaker 1: have it all kind of in house a little bit. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I enjoyed the fact that it's it's comedians running
Speaker 1: a comedy network for comedians and the money stays there
Speaker 1: unlike a lot of these other podcast networks. I think
Speaker 1: it's great. Yeah. And I always like working with friends
Speaker 1: like whenever possible, and people you have sort of pre
Speaker 1: existing relationships with, and you know, I mean I go,
Speaker 1: I've know now probably since I was nineteen, you know,
Speaker 1: half my life. So it's uh. And they really welcomed
Speaker 1: us with open arms and have been nothing but supportive
Speaker 1: and listening to our ideas and stuff like that. So
Speaker 1: it feels like a good home for us. One more
Speaker 1: lazy prep question, Um, Morgan Blake Griffin leaving Los Angeles?
Speaker 1: Are you are you are distraught? I'm beyond I mean,
Speaker 1: I haven't had like a sports trade affect me on
Speaker 1: like a real emotional level, like I didn't. I didn't like,
Speaker 1: you know, I had to go on a drive like
Speaker 1: that's a lot. I don't know. It's it's heavy because
Speaker 1: I I've been a Clippers fan, you know I have.
Speaker 1: I was, you know, fifteen, sixteen years old. I was
Speaker 1: at Clippers games for my birthday. Like, I have autographed
Speaker 1: Brent Berry picture on my wall, like I here him.
Speaker 1: I was in before it was cool and he made
Speaker 1: it cool. So it's, uh, it's a little it's heartbreaking,
Speaker 1: but I think I'm like a Pistons fan now. I
Speaker 1: think I'm just gonna follow him with with my Clippers energy.
Speaker 1: Yeah that was I've lived in Oakland for sixteen years,
Speaker 1: So if if they just traded Curry off like that,
Speaker 1: I would know what to do. Yes, it's not just
Speaker 1: a guy who's good. It's a guy who kind of
Speaker 1: made your organization what it is. So it's, uh, it's
Speaker 1: a little bit crazy, and it reminds you that everything
Speaker 1: is a is a business. Uh, and it all sucks terrible.
Speaker 1: Life is fleeting. Why do we bother? We always end
Speaker 1: this podcast with the three Killer Questions. A little bit
Speaker 1: of a radio thing here, and I want to ask
Speaker 1: you each piece amazing questions. The first one is if
Speaker 1: there was anybody living or dead that you could listen
Speaker 1: to a podcast and have them have them do a podcast,
Speaker 1: who would it be? WHOA big one? Um? Joe Rogan?
Speaker 1: Uh I loved you. Let me think I'm going this
Speaker 1: podcast without makeup. I'll tell you that much. You get
Speaker 1: some comments there. I didn't realize people were makeup on podcasts.
Speaker 1: I'm not like thinking ahead, like you watched that. How
Speaker 1: would you know that they were going to film it?
Speaker 1: They know they do people that people are obsessed. That's
Speaker 1: they watch it on the internet. I'm maybe seven years old,
Speaker 1: and uh so i show up and then I got
Speaker 1: all these comments about how I looked, And I was like,
Speaker 1: I didn't know I was talking about writing. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: wasn't even talking about a thing you have to look
Speaker 1: good for. It's anyways, Um Who's who would I have
Speaker 1: a that's so hard? Maybe? Um my my grandmother who
Speaker 1: I never met. That's a good one. Yeah, um you
Speaker 1: want to The first thing that came to mind, this
Speaker 1: is the first thing that came to mind was Anne Frank.
Speaker 1: I don't know why the second guys, I'm still in
Speaker 1: the attic. Um. I just feel like we all read
Speaker 1: her diary. I want to know more. But it's like
Speaker 1: when people bring their kids to did her party? Um um.
Speaker 1: But then the second thing that went through my mind,
Speaker 1: and and just bear with me on this, is that
Speaker 1: I would like a podcast with the cast and the
Speaker 1: crew and the writer and the director of Greece too.
Speaker 1: I want to know everything that happened during the making
Speaker 1: of that movie. And I wanted to be hosted by
Speaker 1: Michelle Pfeiffer and I and I think it's been a
Speaker 1: point of contention in her career that she was in
Speaker 1: that movie, but she has no idea how much it's
Speaker 1: affected me, like the like the reason I the reason
Speaker 1: I wear V neck t shirts because of I'm not
Speaker 1: wearing one right now, but is because of the character
Speaker 1: she played in Greece. To that's that's one of the
Speaker 1: best answers I've heard. Yesterday, I did this in my
Speaker 1: class and one of the students came back with Whitney
Speaker 1: Houston and Bobby Brown not a bad answer. Back in
Speaker 1: the day, I was like, that would be a killer. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Carrie Fisher and Dabbie Reynolds would be killer. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: that that that would be killer anybody. If you've not
Speaker 1: ever listened to a Carrie Fisher audio book, you're really
Speaker 1: missing out. I mean, read the book, but also the
Speaker 1: way she reads her books was amazing. Second question, if
Speaker 1: you were a sandwich personified, what sandwich would you be?
Speaker 1: I don't ask that question of really special people. I
Speaker 1: would be Thanksgiving leftover sandwich because it's my favorite. It's
Speaker 1: not really good about because because I'm you know, proof
Speaker 1: that you know, things are better when they're a little
Speaker 1: bit older and kind of cold and dry. I like, wow,
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can even follow that. Um,
Speaker 1: I would say I would be a tuna mouth on
Speaker 1: gluten free bread. Why is that you? Oh? Why? Because
Speaker 1: it's my favorite sandwich and it would have to be
Speaker 1: a nice gluten free brioche. I'm trying to avoid gluten
Speaker 1: because it really causes some headaches. I'm off gluten and
Speaker 1: dairy and uh I feel a lot better, but I
Speaker 1: do miss it. Are you a person that gets headaches? Uh?
Speaker 1: No no, just nutritionist said, hey try it out. By
Speaker 1: the way, if you host a podcast in and about
Speaker 1: low speelis, you better have some gluten free snacks available
Speaker 1: ye for your guests. That's a requirement or else. Well,
