WEBVTT - TMI with Martha Stewart 0:00:01.080 --> 0:00:05.560 Oh, good morning morning. How are you, Chelsea. Well, we're 0:00:05.600 --> 0:00:08.600 in New York City today. It's a beautiful day in 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:12.360 the neighborhood. Joe and I have been exercising, like to 0:00:12.520 --> 0:00:15.320 fitness fanatics since we've been in New York City. That's amazing. 0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:17.880 We have walked the other day, he walked thirty five 0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:20.320 thousand steps. I don't know why I didn't, but I 0:00:20.320 --> 0:00:23.799 guess Disneyland. I know he's so he loves it. You 0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:26.120 know that little app, your heart app on your phone 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:28.760 and you can track your steps. And we rented city 0:00:28.760 --> 0:00:32.159 bikes yesterday and we drove all the way while we rode, 0:00:32.240 --> 0:00:34.360 not drove. I hate when people say they drove a bike. 0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:37.040 We rode all the way up to Central Park, all 0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:38.879 the way around Central Park. We first we got our 0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:41.160 little bagel because we've been trying at different bagel places 0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:43.879 all over the city so far. Yeah, I do, but 0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:46.920 I don't know what it's called. So that's helpful. And 0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:50.440 we rode our bikes up. We got a bagel, cream 0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:53.080 cheese and locks and the whole thing, and then we go. 0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:58.000 We drove a road through Central Park, stopped at one 0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:00.680 of these little pools ponds. It was more like an 0:01:00.680 --> 0:01:03.280 algae pond, but it was pretty We ate our bagel. 0:01:03.400 --> 0:01:05.720 Then we rode our bikes all the way down the 0:01:05.760 --> 0:01:09.000 West Side Highway to our favorite little restaurant, Grand Banks, 0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:11.039 where we sit on a boat and we had like 0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:14.240 a strawberry mohito, and then we rode our bikes all 0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:17.480 the way back up town and it was just glorious. 0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:20.120 I mean, New York City is just so much fun, 0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:23.560 especially when you don't live here, like it's always a vacation. 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:27.960 And Joe has started a laundrymat in our hotel room, 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:32.960 so he does laundry pretty much from I wake up 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.520 and the dryers going every morning, so he can must 0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:36.800 wake up in the middle of the night and then 0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:38.640 put another load. And so you guys, actually you have 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:42.440 a washer in our hotel room and it's more like 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:44.960 an apartment than a hotel room. That we read and 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:47.960 he does our laundry and then I hear the washing machine. 0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:51.720 He does laundry constantly, and then he irons it all 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.600 and then he does it again. He starts again, and 0:01:55.640 --> 0:02:00.440 if everything's clean, but it's everything's a mess, like everything's 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:03.320 shrunk or tight eyed. So the other day I got 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:06.360 a jumpsuit out of the dryer and it just had 0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:10.200 chocolate stains everywhere, And I was like, what the funk 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:13.600 is this? Is this like a tight eye situation that 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.679 you're trying out, like what he goes to hunting? That 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:19.440 would it must have been something in your pocket, like 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:21.480 a piece of chocolate, which is so me, you know, 0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:24.080 to have like a chocolate nutcluster left over in my pocket, 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:27.080 Like so my modeled so gross. Yeah, so one of 0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:29.320 my jumpsuits was ruined, and one of my sweatpants, a 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:31.840 pair of sweatpants was also ruined, and that one had 0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:34.280 a big chocolate stain right on the asshole. So I 0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:37.200 could definitely not wear that one. And so I told 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:40.000 him to put a pin in his laundromat and learn 0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:43.440 how to fucking do laundry before continuing. And then he 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:47.239 told me that that's racial profiling because all Chinese people 0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:50.000 run laundromats. And I said, but you're not Chinese, So 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.480 what how is that racial profile? You're Filipino? He said, 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:55.440 you know what I'm talking about. I mean, I was 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.480 going to ask if you said that he irons. I 0:02:57.480 --> 0:02:59.640 feel like it's a known thing that white people don't 0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:03.600 iron their clothes enough, like I am currently wearing an 0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:06.679 unroned color. That's funny. Well, that would make sense. And 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:08.359 my privilege, like we don't even think we have to 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:10.480 iron our clothes. We could just go out looking like schleps. 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:12.800 I don't have to say at least my husband is 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:14.799 one man who I told him at the beginning of 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:16.959 our marriage, I will never iron your shirts if you 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:21.040 would like them iron, he died, Well, this isn't the fifties. Yeah, 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:23.560 I mean, nobody should be ironing anything for anybody else. 0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:27.120 Unless Joe wants to continue iron name my things, that's fine. 0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:30.239 But I would appreciate him taking out the laundry part, 0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.760 because he's ruined a couple of my jumpsuits now, either 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.000 by shrinking them like they're too you know, some of 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:37.120 them you're not supposed to watch, just supposed to dry clean. 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:39.840 But I did send like three of my jumpsuits down 0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:41.640 to dry clean at the hotel that we stay at, 0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:43.960 and I have to say, I got back and I 0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:46.520 just caught the number out of the corner of my eye, 0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:49.360 and I said, what is It was five hundred and 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.760 eighty six dollars to dry clean three jumpsuits, And I 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:54.960 was like, you guys, that's not right. Even I know 0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:58.880 that's not right. One of my girlfriends, she lives in 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:00.920 West Hollywood. I'm sure she was getting a stun in 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:04.720 Beverly Hills. She said she took several sweaters and two 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:07.440 blankets that you need to dry clean to a dry cleaner's. 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:10.000 She got the bell, went to pick it up. It 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:15.400 was sixteen hundred dollars. I was like, where are you taking? 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.960 She goes, oh, with such if your dry cleaner has 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:20.640 a name and it's not just dry cleaner, then you 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:23.560 should not be taking, especially your blankets. There blanket, I 0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:25.599 didn't know you could dry clean. I guess that makes 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:30.520 sense dry clean blanket grant comforters and yeah, yeah, I 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:33.080 don't know. I'm just glad that I don't. I you know, 0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:35.920 laundry feels good when it's done, because we've been on 0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:37.960 the road now for like three weeks, the both of us, 0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:41.599 and we have so much accumulation of dirty stuff. So 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:44.160 it does feel good to have it clean. But it 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.680 doesn't feel good when it's all different colors and different lens. 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.240 When you get it out, you can never wear it again. Yeah, 0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:51.960 so you know, there you go, there you have it. 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:54.400 That's the crux of our That's what our relationship is 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:59.280 about currently dry cleaning or laundry.

Hi, It's always such a delight to see you. Well, 0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:50.200 I'm so happy that you're here in my office and 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:54.479 that we can talk. You know, we've never really just talked. Yes, 0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:59.080 we've interacted before. We've had some social media interaction. We 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:01.920 bumped into each other most recently at Jimmy Fallon show. 0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:04.000 That was so fun, but I think it was seth 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:07.000 Meyers though, oh you know what it was, Seth Meyers. 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:09.120 It's so hard to keep all these men straight, Isn't 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:12.160 it very hard because you do get mixed up. Late 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:15.200 night is late night, and there's like at least three 0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:17.680 or four of them that you have to keep track of. Yeah, 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.239 you know, and I was just your favorite. Oh god, 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:22.560 don't ask to ask me that. I would have to 0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:24.520 say Jimmy Fallon just because I do his show the 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:27.000 most often, so I would say that, you know, he's 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:30.080 a real sweetheart. I like all of them. Is so hard. 0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:32.960 I missed David Litterman the most. Well, you guys had 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:36.160 a nice report, and we we worked together a long time. 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:39.080 And now I think I've appeared on Seth Meyers more 0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:42.000 than any other guests. That was a record for a while. 0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.920 And now I don't know. I think I like Stephen Colbert. 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.360 Do you do that show? Oh yeah, I've done it, 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:53.240 but I don't regularly. I did Fallon more regularly. He's 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.720 a little more difficult, Yeah, but he's really smart. But 0:07:56.800 --> 0:08:00.280 Letterman was difficult. No, No, I know Letterman had a 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.000 nice relationship. And did you guys have a relationship off screen? 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:07.400 I wish yeah, Well, because a lot of you know, 0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:09.360 I was reading this Joan Rivers book because I was 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:11.720 I recently inducted her into the Comedy Hall of Fame 0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:14.240 for Netflix, and I was reading a Joan Rivers book 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:16.200 and she was talking about her dynamic with Johnny Carson. 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.760 Did you ever do Johnny Carson show? Yes, yeah, that 0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:20.880 was That was a hard show to do, That's what 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.760 she said, because everyone thought they had this great relationship, 0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:26.760 but it was only for on camera. There was nothing 0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.720 going on off camera. Did you Joan Rivers have any 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:32.960 affairs with anybody? Um, not that she spoke about in 0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.080 the book, But I mean, I guess, you know, she 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:37.760 seemed to be like a person under herself. But I 0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:40.480 don't mean narcissism or anything like that. Just she was 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:43.240 just so powerful, like her presence was so strong that 0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:45.240 it would be hard to tell anybody else. But I 0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:46.840 think she did. I think I wouldn't. I think I 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:48.560 eated her house once, and I think there was a 0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:51.760 man around. Well, that's good to know, speaking of men. 0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:53.880 What's going on in your love life these days? Nothing. 0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:57.720 I had two mad crushes in the last month, which 0:08:57.760 --> 0:09:01.120 is really good for me. Yeah, it turns out, you know, 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.880 one of them is married to the mother of some 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:07.760 friends of mine, and and I just he's so attractive, 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:09.800 but you don't you can't be a home record. No 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:12.240 I'm not. I've never been a home record, never, and 0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:14.840 I've tried really hard not to be. It's hard to 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:18.160 have had the opportunity record and I have not taken 0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:21.680 anybody up on it. And that's really where that's where 0:09:21.679 --> 0:09:24.000 I meet men. They're all they're all marriage to friends 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.640 of mine or something like that. Well, it's very difficult 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:28.640 because I think there are certain ages we go through 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:31.480 where it's very tempting because you want to believe that, oh, 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.839 maybe this relationship that they're in is temporary, or maybe 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.600 they'll die. I always think, oh, gosh, couldn't that person 0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:40.800 just die the wife you're not not painfully just die 0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:45.320 and then But it hasn't worked out. No, it hasn't 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:47.280 worked out. But what I would say, I mean, I 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.920 find it curious because when was your when was your 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:53.440 last relationship? A while ago, not too long ago. But 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:55.520 while I go, Okay, so it's not that far in 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:59.840 the distance, right, so like a hundred years or well, 0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:01.520 we know you're not a hundred years old. To Martha 0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.840 nobody thinks that, and it speaking of you have a 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:06.920 lot of years ahead of you. But I would like 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.400 to know what, youth, what what do you think is 0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:12.839 the most important thing in terms of legacy and leaving behind? 0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:14.640 What is the thing that's most important for you to 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:17.200 be known for? Um, I would like to leave and 0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:20.440 I think I am in the process of leaving a 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:27.000 vast library of good, authentic information for good living. That's 0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:29.640 really It sounds kind of high minded and blah blah blah, 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:32.760 but it's actually a serious thing. You know, growing up, 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:36.839 I had the joy of cooking, and I had maybe 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:39.480 the better homes and Gardens house of a book of 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:43.559 household management. But I didn't have the Martha Stewart books 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:48.000 which are so phenomenally useful, and I didn't have the 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:51.960 ideas and the videos that we've created and produced over 0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:54.760 the years. So so leaving that kind of legacy of 0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:59.040 really good education, but also with a with a flair 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:03.800 for forliness and joyfulness and beauty, because I think we 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:07.040 what we do is pretty beautiful and all that information 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.640 we've created, that's a that's a good legacy. And did 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:11.200 you know when you were a little girl that this 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:12.520 is what you were going to be doing when you 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:16.120 grew up. No, Actually, I always wanted to be a teacher. 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:20.439 I was brought up loving my teachers. I was encouraged 0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:24.400 to be a teacher to help little kids. I was 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:27.520 always doing the birthday parties and creating all kinds of 0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:30.160 interesting things for the children to do, even when I 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:32.640 was a child. That started when I was about ten. 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.960 So teaching was always ingrained in me as a very 0:11:37.040 --> 0:11:40.199 high minded profession, and that I could do it to 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:44.040 millions of people via television and via the Internet and 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:49.520 via magazines and books. That really has been fantastic. Yeah, yeah, 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.720 I mean it's really Could you have ever imagined that 0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:55.720 you would have such an empire like this? I don't. 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:57.880 I don't think like that. I just think that. And 0:11:57.960 --> 0:11:59.960 I just worked day to day and build and build 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:03.319 and try to try to fix and build and fix 0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:06.480 and repair and build and create. That's how I go. 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:09.960 And what do you think the most influential relationships have 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:12.959 been in your life that have contributed to your sense 0:12:12.960 --> 0:12:15.800 of self and your sense of success. Well, first of all, 0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:18.719 I guess it was my parents, and I had a 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:22.280 nice relationship with both parents. I was my father's favorite 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:24.720 which didn't make me happy all the time, because I 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:27.680 don't think parents should have favorites. How many children six 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:30.000 the same as you? Yeah, what number are you? I 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:33.600 am number two? You were the baby, I'm number six. Well, 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:37.280 you're spoiled brat, and you got what you wanted, probably exactly, 0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:39.680 but I got nothing that I wanted. I had to 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:41.880 work for every single Number two is a pretty hard 0:12:41.880 --> 0:12:45.160 position to be, except that I got my father's attention 0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:49.520 and none of the other kids did. He somehow fixated 0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:53.640 on me, so and he and I were really good friends, 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:57.680 and I felt uncomfortable sometimes because I was he liked 0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:01.280 me better than the other kids, and everybody knew it. Yeah, 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:04.200 they pretty much knew it, and I'm sure they held 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:07.920 it against me, and they probably still do. But my 0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:12.160 mother was the egalitarian and she was great. She had 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:16.520 no favorites at all, and that kind of irked some 0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:20.280 of the kids, but she was everyone was equal, everyone 0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:23.320 got the share. You know. When my mother died, it 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:26.720 was so amazing. Her will was down to the penny 0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:31.719 divided amongst the six children, you know, kind of nice. Well, 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:33.800 I think that's what a mother is meant to do, 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:36.080 is to love all of her children equally, because if 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:38.120 you ask any woman who their favorite child is, they 0:13:38.120 --> 0:13:40.839 all say, oh, that's impossible. And if you ask any man, 0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:43.600 their questions start to vary and they'll say things like 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.000 whoever needs me the most. You know, men love to 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:49.360 be needed. So how how does your relationship with your siblings? 0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:51.640 Do they still feel that way? Do they still make 0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:53.800 fun of the fact that you were the favorite? Well, no, 0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:59.440 because we're I mean, my two closest siblings died unexpectedly. 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:04.559 The two youngest children died and um not not after 0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:07.640 they were married and after they both had children, and 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:10.760 they just died from stupidity. I think I think they 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:14.240 were very careless about their health, so they did not 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:17.240 have to die. That's my theory, and I think it's 0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:21.000 their children's theory also. So they've missed out on the grandchildren, 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.280 and they've missed out on the success of the of 0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:26.360 their own children. It's it's sad, but they were they 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:29.240 were my favorites, my brother George and my sister Laura. 0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:31.960 And Laura worked for me for a very long time 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:35.680 and George was a builder and he did a lot 0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:39.840 of projects with me and two fabulous kids, and I'm 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:43.000 friends with all their children, you know, nice, nice friends 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:45.920 with their children, which is which is important to me. 0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:49.440 But the other is my sister Kathy married a man 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:52.640 that hated me. So you know, we don't even go there. 0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:55.200 We try to have a relationship, but not not a 0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:58.560 very close one. Is this too much information? It's great? 0:14:58.960 --> 0:15:02.000 And then brother Eric, Brother Eric, he's my older brother 0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:06.520 and we've always been friends. And he's a fine craftsman 0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:09.720 and I really admire his artistry and he knows it. 0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:12.440 And he's older than I am, and he's, you know, 0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:14.760 complaining a little bit about getting old, and I don't 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:17.320 I don't like that. I don't want him to complain 0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:19.760 because he's a strong guy. And then we have the 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:24.560 brother that that brother, I guess every family has, I 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:26.200 know which one you're talking about. I have one of 0:15:26.200 --> 0:15:28.520 those two have one. Yes. But he had a good 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:31.560 reason he went to Vietnam. Oh okay, So he is 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:35.200 a very good reason for being the way he was. Yeah, 0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.320 my brother does not have a good reason. He did 0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:40.000 not go to Vietnam. So I'll have to follow up 0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:42.600 on that later. Yeah, but I wish my brother would 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:45.120 write a book about his experience in Vietnam. Those guys 0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:48.360 don't want to write books about their experiences, Yeah, because 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.880 they don't want to talk or remember it. It's too Yeah, 0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:54.000 and you know what, it would be so interesting now 0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:57.440 in retrospect to know what they went through. I mean, 0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:02.600 Vietnam was a hard war. Yeah, yeah, Vietnam. For our generation, 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:05.440 it was Iraq and Afghanistan. And we still haven't even 0:16:05.440 --> 0:16:08.160 seen the after effects of what those soldiers went through. Right, 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:12.160 And kids don't know anything about war, that's the thing. Well, yeah, 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.600 and it's happening all over the world. Generation right now 0:16:14.760 --> 0:16:20.040 doesn't know about war and the effect it has on people. Uh, 0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:23.120 it's so crazy to me that that they don't know it. 0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:27.040 And yet Ukraine is happening right now, and and they 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:30.200 don't know, they don't understand how devastating it is to 0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:33.400 a population. Yeah. Seeing those pictures coming out of Mariopole 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:35.360 or any of those cities, you're just like, it's the 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:39.400 most senseless act of destruction. The women with their babies 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:42.600 crossing borders for food and shelter, and the children carrying 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:45.600 their little white kitty cats on their shoulders. Yeah, yeah, 0:16:45.840 --> 0:16:48.400 it's so horrible. So to pivot, I want to ask 0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:51.520 you something about your experience. What do you think is 0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:58.440 one of your favorite things about growing older? Favorite thing? Yeah, 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:02.560 I don't have one, Yes, you do, come on, not 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:06.040 one because first of all, I don't think about age 0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:09.360 or aging. I do not think about it. Uh, some 0:17:09.520 --> 0:17:12.359 thing's happened to you. You know, you're your foot, you 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:15.240 stepping a hole in your rupture your achilles tendant. I 0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:18.560 did that last year, and that was a stupid thing 0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:22.920 because it's hurt me for a year. And that that's 0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:25.560 the least favorite thing is is getting into any kind 0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:28.919 of pain. Yeah, my favorite thing about getting older is 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:32.400 absolutely not one thing. And there you have it, everybody, 0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:35.280 there's not one favorite thing about getting older. I thought 0:17:35.320 --> 0:17:38.359 we would impart some positive wisdom from Martha's store. Not 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:41.040 a thing people. Okay, Well, on that note, we're gonna 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:44.080 take some callers. I give advice. It's just off the cough. 0:17:44.320 --> 0:17:47.240 I'm not a medical doctor. You're not a medical doctor 0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:49.040 unless you are a medical doctor. And I don't know 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:51.080 about that. But I know a lot about medicine. Yeah 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:54.199 so do I. Actually I love medicine. So Katherine, tell 0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:56.359 us what we have in store for this episode. While 0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:59.280 we have all kinds of questions that are right up Martha's. 0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:02.760 Ali will take a quick break and we'll be right 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:10.480 back with Martha Stewart and Chelsea. Okay, and we're back. 0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:13.119 And Martha brought some Easter eggs, even though they were 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:15.800 just they're not Easter eggs, They're just eggs from her 0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:18.800 chickens who lay different colored eggs. Yeah, I thought they 0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:21.919 were Easter eggs, and then upon closer inspection and Martha 0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:26.200 telling me, I realized they are not Easter eggs. Well, 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:30.240 our first question comes from Heather. She says, Dear Chelsea, 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:33.240 knowing how much you and your family love Martha's vineyard 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:35.480 and that you go every year, I was hoping you 0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:38.159 could share some suggestions on where to go and what 0:18:38.320 --> 0:18:41.119 to do. My husband and are two year old, are 0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:43.639 joining another couple and they're one year old at the 0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:47.040 end of July. Staying in Edgartown one of the places 0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:49.720 we should absolutely visit. And where are the best places 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:52.840 to eat? The more outdoors the better. We can also 0:18:52.920 --> 0:18:56.240 find some adults only time without the kids stay well, 0:18:56.359 --> 0:18:58.960 Heather m and I just have to say, Martha, you 0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:02.679 may already know this, but in researching this question, I 0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:05.840 learned that a very vast portion of the Internet thinks 0:19:05.880 --> 0:19:10.040 that you own Martha's vineyard as as By the way, 0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:12.760 all my nieces and nephews growing up thought it was 0:19:12.880 --> 0:19:16.360 Aunt Martha's vineyard, and they would say when I'd say 0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:20.440 I'm going to the vineyard, Aunt Martha's vineyard, they all thought, 0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:22.480 not only was it my island, but it was also 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:26.240 I had a vineyard on the island, and that's why 0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:30.520 I stay far away from Martha's vineyard. I don't ever 0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:33.600 go to Martha's vineyard, so I couldn't offer any advice. 0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:36.800 That's so that's a brand disruption, and she's got her 0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:38.720 own thing going on. She doesn't need to be tied 0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:41.879 to some island exactly. If you're staying in Edgartown, you're 0:19:41.920 --> 0:19:44.119 gonna find plenty of things to do. Most places to 0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:46.959 eat are the quarter Deck, which has like outdoor total 0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:51.200 vineyard food like fried clams, shride shrimp, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, 0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:53.639 all that stuff that you can get that's fun for kids. 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:55.679 If you go down to the wharf, there's tons of 0:19:55.720 --> 0:19:59.600 places for kids, little candy stores, lots of shopping all 0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:01.960 down on edgar Town, up and down Main Street and 0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:04.840 around the Harbor View. In hotel is a great place 0:20:04.880 --> 0:20:07.320 to have a drink and look at the sunset harbor 0:20:07.440 --> 0:20:10.440 side in and then there's the wharf and everywhere you 0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:12.840 go around there you'll find places you can't go wrong 0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:14.840 on Martha's Vineyard. And then you're gonna want to go 0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:17.760 up island too, to like see the more quiet parts 0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:21.080 of the vineyard, which is West Tisbury and Tisbury and 0:20:21.200 --> 0:20:24.679 uh the three main towns are Oak Bluffs, Vineyard Haven 0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:28.360 and edgar Town. And then up island there's some really pristine, 0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:32.520 beautiful beaches like in chill Mark and Menemsha. Those are 0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:34.440 places you want to go and get a great lobster 0:20:34.560 --> 0:20:37.880 roll and watch the sunset. Especially it's specifically the beach 0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:40.879 in Menemsha, so you're gonna have a beautiful time in 0:20:40.880 --> 0:20:45.120 the summertime. That's my special spot, Martha's Vineyard. It is. Yeah, 0:20:45.240 --> 0:20:48.359 my family, we had a house. They're growing up. You go, now, Yeah, 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:52.720 we go every summer. You're really knowledgeable about Yeah, I 0:20:52.760 --> 0:20:54.840 mean I couldn't even I've been going to Maine for 0:20:55.200 --> 0:20:57.760
