14
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: just enjoy the day. So I am not drinking from

15
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: Monday to Thursday. So it's very fun.

16
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: Hold on, stand by, Wait, what's this arbitrary new rule

17
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: for you?

18
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: Can you guys pick up on that? That is thunder

19
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: behind me? And then it's also my dog chewing on

20
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: a bone. Oh yeah, I just heard thunder. I was like,

21
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: I heard some thunder. Are you okay? It's weird because

22
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: it's like behind me. No, I'm good, you know, living

23
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: on city island. It's a very small island, so I

24
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 1: just feel very vulnerable to the weather. And so I'm

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: just glad my husband's here. You know, I married him

26
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: because yes, I love him and I see him as

27
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 1: a life partner. But also I need someone to tell

28
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: me the thunder is going to be okay, take the

29
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: spiders out the house and take out the garbage. Other

30
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: than that, of course, I love you, But no, it's

31
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: been a really good dab or a really good week. Rather,

32
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: I wrote a book and then Netflix optioned the book,

33
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: and now we're making a TV show. Yeah, what, Like

34
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: I have to I know I was there for all

35
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: of it.

36
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: I can't believe it each moment, but of course I

37
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: can but tell me what it's like to be a

38
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 2: boss in this situation.

39
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: Every day in the room, being a boss is hard because, like,

40
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 1: I never want to hurt anyone's feelings, but I also

41
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: have to manage my expectations and they need to manage theirs.

42
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Like, I can't be

43
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: everything for everybody, and it feels like that, it feels

44
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: like that.

45
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: You know, the worst feeling. You can tell me how

46
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: this feels to you. But when someone pitches something in

47
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: the room. Yeah, and it's not funny.

48
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest when I talk about being everything

49
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: for everybody, I'm talking about a peripheral circle of people

50
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: trying to get a job on the show can't. And

51
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: it's not just up to me. Like you know, I

52
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: think people see people having success or becoming successful and

53
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: they think that they can hook you up. And sure,

54
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: like you could put someone's name on a list or

55
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: in a hat or wherever we're putting fucking names, but

56
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: ultimately it's like a wedding and you're broke, Like whoever

57
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: pays has to say so I I am also in

58
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: business with a production company and an amazing platform, So yeah,

59
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: I mean it's a collaborative effort. And so why can't

60
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: you hook me up there? Michelle? Why can't you? I mean,

61
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: your name on the thing, everybody about you. I'm a circle.

62
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you twenty four hours past that drug test.

63
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: I told you, I told you I need long in that.

64
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: I told you. I don't know whose cousin or uncle

65
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: you're doing right now, but it is triggering you are

66
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: you sound like an uncle that still lives at home

67
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: with Mom. Feels like he's her roommate because he's got

68
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: his own entrance and definitely has a lizard in a

69
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: in a some sort of glass situation. Yes, I have

70
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: a lizard, Lamar. He's a good lizard with a scarface

71
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: poster with no frame, just only text, Why are you

72
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: painting the picture of my childhood room?

73
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: So that's I mean, that's that is an enviable but

74
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: at the same time really hard place to be because

75
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: it's like a tight wire. But I feel as though

76
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: your feeling as though you're a it's an upweek and

77
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 2: you're doing it right now.

78
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this is a good thing about having

79
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: a slow burn and not getting too much too soon,

80
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: because I don't know how someone at twenty four can

81
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: handle this, because at forty four, I'm just like, okay,

82
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: how do I go about this and don't leave like

83
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: a dumpster fire behind me and just like all right, bitch,

84
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: like I said what I said and walk away like

85
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: Angela Bassett and waiting to exhale, you know what I mean?

86
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: Like you want to do that? That is really the

87
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: go to And that's why I love stand up so much,

88
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: because I could just yell at people that deserve to

89
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: be yepedt. But within the room, everybody's pitching strong ass shit.

90
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: All right, I've never heard a bad idea.

91
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Yes, they're just hitting three pointers from outside.

92
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: That's amazing. It's gold. It's gold. It feels like magic.

93
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: That's amazing. It feels like magic. That's great. It's like

94
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: minded but also unique motherfuckers who all brings something crazy

95
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 1: different and understand the world that I'm trying to create.

96
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: How do you decide which ideas then go in? Well,

97
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: I have an amazing showrunner who has been working in

98
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: television for over twenty years and she's Mexican American, and

99
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: so when I'm throwing out stuff that I really need

100
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: to see and people are throwing out like stuff like

101
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 1: how to serve the story, she will figure out like

102
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 1: also a beautiful mind, you know what I mean, Like

103
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: you know that gift of that lady looking at like algebra,

104
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: just putting it together. She's like, well, if you put

105
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: that here and put this there, what you can do

106
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: is have a You've earned this and they'll lead to it.

107
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, right, right, right right. Television really

108
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 1: is if it's done well, it's done well by people

109
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: who fucking care you know, who get it? Can I

110
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: ask a question, is Lola enjoying that bone? You can

111
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: hear it right, it's not Lola. Lola is just scared

112
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: of thunder, which is which is why she's buying me.

113
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,359
Speaker 1: But Whitney Houston over there is chopping on her bone. Whitney,

114
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: you gotta go. I got no problem. I think it's

115
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: kind of great.

116
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 2: I love truth, I love very similitude, and that's what's

117
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 2: going on.

118
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 1: It is too much. Whitney needs the attention. I get it.

119
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 1: Whitney's like, I'm here too. I got something to say,

120
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: I got something to say. I know she's really asserting herself.

121
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: Are you guys gonna get a dog?

122
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 2: By the way, Well, we were on the cusp of

123
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 2: getting another dog, but I think we're gonna just stay

124
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 2: with this dog.

125
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're not getting rid of my dog and just

00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 2: that dog.

132
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:39,440

Speaker 2: He does have a lot of weird phobias and not

137
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 2: like like he's scared of boxes, carbo boxes.

138
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: Was he found in a box?

139
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 2: No, but we we trained him to sleep in like

140

Speaker 2: we put him in a box, like we just we

141
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 2: we thought, okay, so we want the puppy to sleep.

142
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 2: She put the puppy in the box. That's what they

143
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 2: told us.

144
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: Put the puppy in the box. I'm like, all right,

145
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: there's no way for them to get out. They're stuck.

146
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then he would just like cry and be

147
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: like and you thought you were training him.

148
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, We're like it's going to be all right, You're

149
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: gonna be all right. No, you guys are really bad

150
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: dog owners. Okay, I'm just kidding. No, if anything, Leo's like, sir, yes, sir.

151
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: Now Leo knows what to do because he doesn't want

152
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: to go back in that box. I know.

153
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 2: And every time I open a box, he's like, what's

154
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: in the box, And then he runs upstairs.

155
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: Oh my god, hi Leo. Poor Leo's like Brad Pitt

156
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: the end of seven put in the box. It's not okay.

157
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: But anyways, getting back to TV shows, I mean, how's

158
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: it going for you? The great parallel with us is like,

159
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: this is like the best year we've had. It's pretty good.

160
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: It's pretty great, right eineteen eighty nine was pretty great

161
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 2: for me.

162
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,239
Speaker 1: Oh, Chris, my first girl, How are you eleven? When's

163
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: your birthday?

164
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 2: February second? Okay, nineteen twenty eight, got it? Yeah, thanks

165
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: July twenty fourth. But I have to say, yes, of

166
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: course we're having very good years despite the world falling apart.

167
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 2: And then I'm like the world's falling apart, and then

168
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 2: people will be like, well, you're looking at it the

169
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 2: wrong way, which is people need to laugh and they

170
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 2: need to feel something good in their lives and you're

171
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: and you're providing that.

172
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

173
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 2: So it's almost like they're calling our number right now

174
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 2: to be that, you know, four people.

175
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. I had I had a wild time when my

176
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: Netflix special drop in the end of twenty twenty because

177
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: I'm like, twenty twenty because the world is was it was,

178
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: It was so toxic and tumultuous, and I'm like, between

179
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter and Trump and the election, I'm like,

180
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: we don't need this, And then all the messages came

181
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: in that were like, I loved it. I needed to

182
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: cleanse my palate from the world I joy watched it,

183
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: and then my friend told me Rob Lewis who you know.

184
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: He said, joy is an active resistance, so never stop

185
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: shining that light. And I'm like, fuck everything he says,

186
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: I want to put on a magnet. It probably already

187
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: is on a magnet. Let's be honest.

188
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a big fridge at this point. A lot

189
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 2: of a lot of sayings.

190
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: What has been like the most challenging thing for you

191
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,959
Speaker 1: working in a writer's room this time because you're also

192
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: acting in the show this time? I mean, because it's

193
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: on a zoom zoom is just so impersonal as we

194
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: zoom right now. I do this podcast as.

195
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 2: We zoom right now. I just you know what, I

196
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,199
Speaker 2: wish I was at your place right now, Bud. I

197
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 2: wish I was hanging out.

198
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: That's one of us. And wow, wow, kidding stop it.

199
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: If you were here, we'd be having wine. It'd be

200
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 1: so fun. Yeah, I'd be having one. Wow, you're not

201
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: even gonna.

202
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 2: Serve me wine at your house the well you're driving

203
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 2: that's true, Okay, now on a zoom I will say

204
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 2: that there's something like you just don't have that one

205
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 2: on one contact with people and getting to see them

206
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 2: in a room, which is wonderful. And some jokes can

207
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 2: just come from and ideas can come from just looking

208
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 2: at the person across the table from you. And yes,

209
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 2: I missed that. The intimacy, the intimacy of it all.

210
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: I think that's really been the hardest part for me.

211
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 2: And aside from that, the most challenging thing was writing

212
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 2: an episode, writing what I would say hmm, without trying

213
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 2: to become a hog, a miserable hog, unlike dialogue and

214
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 2: things like that, right, and trying to make sure that

215
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 2: it's a golden opportunity that's being handed.

216
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: To me, And okay, can I just reward that what

217
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: your gold and you've worked and deserved this opportunity. Thank

218
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: you so much. That is a beautiful rewording.

219
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 2: But those, I think those are our different po We

220
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 2: differ in our povs in that way. Yeah, but it's

221
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 2: okay because I want to I know that I'm worth

222
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 2: it and worthy of it. Sometimes sometimes people will be

223
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 2: worth and worthy of something and they still don't get it,

224
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 2: you know, and they still don't get it, and that's tough,

225
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 2: you know, that's real shit. So I'm just saying that,

226
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 2: like I want to go one hundred percent on whatever

227
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 2: I get.

228
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: That's funny because I'm just like, when I started talking

229
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: to them, I'm like, oh, there's a reason why, Yeah,

230
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: that's all. It takes more than just being funny, and

231
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: it takes more than just schmoozing.

232
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 2: You know.

233
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: You have to like you have to be original and

234
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 1: listen to people listen actively, yes, I don't feel like

235
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: people listen a lot of the times. And then also

236
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: just think outside of yourself for five whole minutes, because

237
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: that's how you create a world, right absolutely, so I interrupted,

238
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: you go ahead.

239
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 2: No, that was a wonderful, amazing, interesting sectional challenge of

240
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 2: just like it was an intersection of all that I've

241
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 2: ever wanted, acting, writing, creating and banging on that door

242
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 2: for so long that when it actually opens, are you

243
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 2: ready to step through it?

244
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: You know?

245
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 2: And there was a moment when I was when I

246
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 2: was done with that script, I had a nice crying

247
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 2: the bathroom. Yeah, you know, I had a nice cry

248
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 2: in a bathroom, you know, because my friends helped me

249
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 2: make it and do it and you know, shout out

250
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 2: to Phoebe for giving me the opportunity to do this,

251
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 2: because I hadn't had that opportunity. I had written on

252
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 2: other shows. And I got halfway there, not all the

253
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 2: way there, and this was like, y'all really gonna let

254
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 2: me do this?

255
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: It just felt it felt crazy.

256
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 2: It was like when your kid runs off on the playground,

257
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 2: you know, when you run off of the playground, you

258
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: look back.

259
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 1: To mama, like, Mama, for real, are we doing this?

260
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, go on, go on, you know, yeah,

261
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 2: And it felt it felt like that, and it was

262
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 2: you know, it's hard, but it's affirming and wonderful. And

263
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 2: zero point zero percent of people get to do it

264
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 2: in this world, right, get to create like that. There's

265
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 2: no federal funds for art, you know, barely, yeah, or

266
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 2: artists or creativity.

267
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 1: It's all about yeah, outputs, and it's so mixed now,

268
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: like it's so tainted because we don't even know what

269
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: being creative is anymore because we're, you know, beholden to

270
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: these devices. So we think an app is us being creative,

271
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 1: but it's like really sitting with yourself and doing something

272
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 1: out of quietness, you know, can you be still enough

273
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: to finish this or dare to suck or put yourself

274
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: out there for criticism. But that's how you get better.

275
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 1: Better criticism and like with people who are mindful and

276
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,559
Speaker 1: no more than you is my favorite. I don't need

277
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 1: to read the comments, bitch, Like, I'm sorry, are you

278
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: a content creator? Leave a comments this? Shout the fuck up.

279
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: It's tough.

280
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 2: I mean those comments sections, they are dangerous, man, they

281
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 2: are dangerous and toxic, and you gotta stay out of

282
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 2: them because those people, that's what they spend their day doing. Right,

283
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 2: A lot of the time they spend their time just commenting.

284
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 2: Just there there are I wouldn't say professional commenters, but

285
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 2: that's their hobby and past time.

286
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, I mean I'm definitely thankful, And

287
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: I think the only thing I have been making sure,

288
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: like the gut check is like are you doing enough?

289
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: You don't know if it's gonna be a season two?

290
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: Make season one? Mother fucking count? You know what I mean?

291
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: Like is it different enough? Is it unique enough? Is

292
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: it gonna pop? Also, like I'm so used to playing

293
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: the sidekick that I'm like, is this like star material

294
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: or is it just still me being funny? For funny sake. Also,

295
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: you know me, like, what the fuck are you saying?

296
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: How are you going to feel at the end of

297
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: this streaming? You know, binge washing shit really has changed

298
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: the way we write television too, Like, yeah, it serialized

299
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: it a lot more. Yeah, so that's a different way

300
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: of just.

301
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 2: Thinking, Yeah, well, all I know is you go all

302
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 2: out on everything. And it kind of dovetails with an

303
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 2: amazing quote that I know from from Carol Burnett legend

304
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 2: icon and it's just I live with it in my

305
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: heart and it's now for everybody.

306
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: Let me just pass on.

307
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 2: She said, when you're writing a show and you're developing

308
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 2: a TV show, just remember swing for the fences because

309
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 2: you're gonna get canceled anyway.

310
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: Yes, you can't see me, but I'm pulling my ear

311
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: saying I love you like the way she did at

312
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: the end of her shows. I love him so much.

313
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 2: I'm so glad we have this time together too. That's

314
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 2: the song from the end of the Carol Burnett Show.

315
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 2: But I'm also glad we've had this. Sorry, sorry, so good.

316
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: I'm so glad we had this time together.

317
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 2: I used to watch that show with my mom and

318
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 2: that was one of my first introductions to comedy because

319
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 2: my mom is just just a comedy schnob. So that's

320
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 2: how I learned about that. But yo, should we get

321
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 2: throw our guests. We always we do always do this

322
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 2: talking and then we find ourselves, as we say, down

323
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 2: South polycocking and talking.

324
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: Well, I wasn't polycocking. I was waiting for you to

325
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: wrap up. You were definitely on a tangent, and I

326
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: was like, I'm just like, I feel like I've interrupted

327
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: you so much. I'm just like, I'm gonna let him go.

328
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: But I was like, we should wrap this up because

329
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, I'm really excited to get to our guests,

330
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:47,920

331
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: an icon in the motherfucking making. And he is also

332
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: a writer on my show. What Yes, you got coworkers

333
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: on this thing, bitch, let me do this. I am

338
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: I didn't do it right. I'm sorry. Does anyone else

341
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 2: Yes, hey Solomon Solomon.

342
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: Mother fucking Georgio.

343
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 3: It has been so long, so long, so so long.

344
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 3: I felt like I wasn't even just writing about you.

345
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I am so sorry. Truly, you are iconic.

346
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 3: You are too nice. You have to understand. I consider

347
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 3: both of you equally and more so iconic.

348
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 2: Respectfully, What what's happening?

349
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: And we're gonna take all in a minute. The love

350
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,239
Speaker 1: is mutual in this space. That's what's going on. Oh

351
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 1: my god, cute chemical brothers. AM ready to do a walk.

352
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 2: When she told me that you were joining her writing staff,

353
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 2: she was just like, She's like, I have to with

354
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:31,919
Speaker 2: some good news.

355
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 1: I was.

356
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: And now the lights are out.

357
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: The lights went out. Where are you, Jordan's clover Field.

358
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 2: I'm in my office, but it's they're on some European

359
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 2: concepts of like motion detector lights. Hang in a second,

360
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 2: I will just reboot. This is not how I want

361
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 2: you to see me.

362
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: I love it. And you are in a glorious room

363
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 1: which just wigs you.

364
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 3: See this room so many times I just have so

365
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 3: many wigs now it's just and there's more coming.

366
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: I have four more coming. Oh my, how do you

367
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: just sign? Or you're just like I want to build

368
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: a outfit around this, or I just want to feel

369
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: this way.

370
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 3: No, I just want this wig. I just want the hair.

371
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 3: I don't care about the outfit. I just want to

372
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 3: I want to wear it by myself, yes, and put

373
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,160
Speaker 3: on a beat and then just do it for about

374
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes and then I'm done.

375
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: What you do your own makeup?

376
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, just like I do, like two hours in makeup,

377
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 3: walk around for fifteen minutes and then feel my oats

378
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 3: and then just take it right off and go to sleep.

379
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: I love it. You better make some milk shit. That's

380
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: your night ritual every day. It's not.

381
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 3: That's just when the world gets me down.

382
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: I got you. I feel you look fine, joy wherever

383
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: the fuck you can. And I yeah, you need to

384
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: teach me how to do makeup, not that you need to, but.

385
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:53,439
Speaker 3: Please do you look good naturally, which is very disrespectful

386
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 3: to the rest of us.

387
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: We were just talking about comedians writing on TV shows.

388
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: Oddly enough, because Jordan is working and starring in Phoebe

389
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: show yes, yeah, I saw that. Yes, we're doing it

390
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: black history, I'm telling you. And just like the difference

391
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: between doing stand up and then going into a writer's

392
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: room is so wild, because you know, the green room

393
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 1: is a locker room. It's really like a motherfucker free

394
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 1: for all. And you know it. It's not gonna be

395
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: a Yo Mama joke, but it's gonna be something along

396
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 1: those lines. And any comedian I think will tell you,

397
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: no matter what kind of show they're doing, sometimes you're

398
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: playing for the comedians in the back, like you don't

399
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 1: give a fuck about the audience. You know that the

400
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 1: audience is with you, but like the other comedians are listening.

401
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 3: Look, I've rarely given a fuck about the audience.

402
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 1: It's they're just there.

403
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 3: And mostly yeah, if I get a comedian to laugh

404
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 3: over the audience, right, the comedian laugh is yeah.

405
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: It's like you've done something. But now, like this is

406
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: my first writer's room, baby's first rider room. My hymen

407
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: is broken, I can't fix I don't know. My race

408
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: room hiement is broken. Jordan got that face. No, I was,

409
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: I was just stating it. But it really is like

410
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: a situation where you have to play well with others

411
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: and you should and you should. That's how you make

412
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 1: it fun. Were you nervous writing on your first show?

413
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, I'm trying to remember that experience. So it's

414
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 3: been a while now. I was terrified every day because

415
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 3: you don't, like it's what's calm. With stand up you

416
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 3: get instant validation, and with TV, like there's like the

417
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 3: validation in the room, but that doesn't equal the validation

418
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 3: of when then you have like the product has to

419
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 3: be created and you have to wait a while and

420
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 3: then it's finally out and like do people like this?

421
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: Okay? And like you don't want to be canceled but

422
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: I know, but it's still you don't want it. Have

423
00:21:58,040 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 1: you found a way though? Do you?

424
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 2: Do you understand like within your bones the metrics of

425
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 2: like this will work. I know on television, I.

426
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 3: Feel like because I'm TV obsessed and like like my

427
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 3: thirty minute comedy obsessed. So there's like things you know

428
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 3: are tried and true, and if you're in good hands

429
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 3: with the really good showrunner and other coworkers, you just

430
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 3: there's just no doubt, yeah, that the show is going

431
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 3: to be good, like and I've been very fortunate that

432
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 3: I've got to pick projects that I'm like, I have

433
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 3: no concern that the show is going to be Yeah,

434
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 3: I have no concern.

435
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: I mean, what was it like working on Trill because

436
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: y'all filmed in Seattle, right, No? Is it the film important?

437
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 3: I wasn't there for very much of the filming, but

438
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 3: it was the room itself is that was a great,

439
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 3: great great room as well, Like it was like mostly women,

440
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 3: very queer, very queer friendly eighties A goddess. Yeah, and

441
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 3: the show there's was also fantastic. Lady West is an

442
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 3: amazing person. Like that was one of those rooms that

443
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 3: I was very few doubt in me.

444
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm so ignorant. I was like, Portland and Seattle

445
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: are the same place. To me, they are, Like you

446
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 1: could also say Juno. I'm like, yeah, that's the same

447
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 1: place Juno, Alaska. Yes, it's all up there. It's all

448
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:13,400
Speaker 1: very close to Paleine.

449
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 3: I grew up in Seattle, and I can confirm that

450
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 3: if anybody thinks they're a difference, there's one hundred percent incorrect.

451
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 3: They have the same amount of black people.

452
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what's the light growing up in Seattle?

453
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 1: Don't leave anything out. It is well there's not much

454
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: mix a lot there was.

455
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 3: He came to my high school three separate times. What

456
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 3: just just to say, hey, kids, keep doing what you're doing.

457
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 3: You're like, well, we can't be used to mix a lot.

458
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 3: That's you know what I mean, You're.

459
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: One of a kind. Wow, forty forty is from Seattle,

460
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: and so he did. He did not show up to

461
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: my high school.

462
00:23:53,760 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 3: Un If forty showed up, I was much differently experience

463
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 3: for me in high school.

464
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 1: So your parents migrated here, right, yeah, Like, well, yeah,

465
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: my family.

466
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 3: I'm an immigrant too. We came to America when I

467
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 3: was like four years old in nineteen eighty five. We

468
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 3: first lived in Saint Louis, Missouri on purpose. On purpose? Well, well,

469
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,199
Speaker 3: I think we got sponsored through a church and that's

470
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 3: how we ended up there. Right, Well, we worked, We

471
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 3: worked very hard to get the fuck out as quickly

472
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 3: as possible. Once my mom saw snow for the first time,

473
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 3: she was like, well, we're never going to see this again.

474
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 3: We did, We did, But then we moved to Fresnoe, California,

475
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 3: and that place it's a lateral move. It is not

476
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 3: a better location. It is Fresno is like a deeply

477
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 3: segregated city. It's mostly a lot of migrant workers because

478
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 3: there's a lot of farmland and but all. But the

479
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 3: thing is that a lot of the people, the landowners,

480
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 3: are very in charge of all the elections. So that's

481
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 3: how we end up with somebody like Devin nunyas representing us.

482
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 3: It's a I think it's just a disapportionate amount of

483
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 3: people that are that are not able to vote. It's

484
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 3: not a good representation of the population there at all.

485
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 2: Right, Wow, you said that every place in Africa is

486
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 2: better than Fresno.

487
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 3: Yes, ident that said multiple times, and I will continue

488
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 3: to say that that a lot of parts of Africa.

489
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 2: It is.

490
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. No.

491
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 3: I also used to say that it is a city

492
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: of broken fences and unleashed footbulls.

493
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: Is that where Karate Kid took place? Is that like

494
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 1: around there that area? I don't know. I'm trying to remember.

495
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 3: It's been the butt of a joke of California for

496
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 3: a long long time that there's always been that bakers

497
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 3: Field or Fresno is the worst city in California, and

498
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 3: they would fight over that.

499
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: I'm like, what are we fighting over here for? We're

500
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 1: worse than this, Like you know, like this is you

501
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: don't have to.

502
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 3: Be the worst two cities. But then yeah, like it

503
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 3: was the mid nineties that we moved to Seattle. It

504
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 3: was like right in the height of grunge music. The

505
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 3: same year that Court Cobain died and I got there

506
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 3: and I was like, oh, this is this was sad.

507
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 1: White people look like yeah, when Kirk Covain died, I

508
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 1: was in Catholic high school and we for the morning

509
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 1: prayers prayed for him and his family. Yeah, yeah, Hio

510
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 1: High School.

511
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 3: Like I showed up and people were like, yeah, they

512
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 3: were it was they were in their feelings about it,

513
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 3: and I was like, I don't I don't know who

514
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 3: this is.

515
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: Who did you listen to as a kid, because I

516
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:24,679
Speaker 1: was like I was like.

517
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 3: Thirteen at that time, and I think it was like

518
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 3: I was sitting like I think we came up there

519
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 3: while California Love was the hit song.

520
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: Oh okay I was.

521
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 3: I was very much like a West Coast rap fan

522
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 3: and like I also grew up because Frest it's not

523
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 3: too far from the Bay Area, so we had like

524
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 3: Otown three five seven, oh no, Oaktown three five seven, No,

Speaker 1: Bowl halftime show really was your jam?

528
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:53,919
Speaker 3: Then?

529
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it was?

530
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 3: It was Well, I'm not that crazy about eminem I've

531
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 3: never happened. There's something about white male rappers are that

532
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 3: they just need to rap fast, and I'm like, can

533
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 3: we just can we.

534
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 2: Just take it.

535
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 3: Like it's not a competition. It's really I want to

536
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 3: hear what you're saying. Wow, But yeah, it's uh. But

537
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 3: the rest of them I've obviously clearly uh. Nate Dogg

538
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 3: was also another one that I think I was just

539
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 3: obsessed with that voice too when I was a kid. Yeah.

540
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: So where would you live in America if not La? Nowhere?

541
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 2: Yeah?

542
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 3: I think I think I reached that kind of like

543
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 3: I've I've wanted to live in LA for so long

544
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 3: and this is my third time doing it and I've

545
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 3: been here for ten years now, and it's it's this

546
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 3: or another country.

547
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel you on that what other country would

548
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: you live in?

549
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 2: Because it feels like you you have you have definitely

550
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 2: like an international appeal, like you you could I could

551
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 2: see you at like on the route to get you know,

552
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 2: like at the DOGA mean having like a just wanted he.

553

555
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 3: and put that on a magnet. If I like, if

556
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 3: it's Europe, it'd probably be Amsterdam or like a Copenhangen situation.

557
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 3: If it's If it's Africa, then I probably do like

558
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 3: a Legos in Nigeria.

559
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: Oh look at you and Asia.

560
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 3: I'm still not such sure yet because I do love

561
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 3: India a lot, but I don't know how well I

562
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 3: fit in right.

563
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,639
Speaker 1: Oh you know what I love about you. I mean,

564
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: this is one time I forget what the festival was,

565
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 1: because you know, there's always a festival and this was

566
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: like BC before COVID, and this was also like a

567
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 1: very drunk after party. And I think Moreau Torell was there,

568
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: maybe GRIGGIONI, I don't remember. Who was all there, Neighbor

586
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,720

587
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 3: that I was good at. Especially well, like when you

588
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 3: come to America as as an African and you're you're

589
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:40,479

590
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: You don't want to be the black kid that can't dance.

591
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: That is that is a curse and a half.

592
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 3: Because I already had like there's some points I didn't

593
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 3: that I suck out when I try to hang out

594
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 3: with people because I was mostly put on my black school.

595
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: I was like, dance is the only one, if anything right,

596
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 3: of all the things they can make fun of, it

597
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 3: won't be my dancing skills gonna lie.

598
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,160

603
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,200

Speaker 1: can skate forward and backward like the fucking Nick Cannon

00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 3: Solomon by the end of it. And I learned that

712
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 3: through the quarantine.

713
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 1: Is that coming from a big family, you're just you

714
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: just really appreciate your you time. Yeah, and but I

715
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: also I.

716
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 3: Feel like I'm very good at with even with my

717
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 3: own you time, I'm always able to reach out, like

718
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 3: I'm very good at reaching out when i'm lonely. I'm

719
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 3: not whatever longiness becomes like well maybe, and it's never

720
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 3: very long lasting. And I'm very good at appreciating myself

721
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 3: and treating myself well. I'm very good at treating myself.

722
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 3: I'm great at treating myself.

723
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,359
Speaker 1: That's good. That's so good because how many people are

724
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: just waiting for someone else to treat them well and

725
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 1: then it also they're always disappointed when it doesn't happen.

726
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: I'm just like, do you just like to live this way?

727
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: Because you can go out and do it for your

728
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: fucking self, Like my husband always has a hard time

729
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 1: buying gifts for me, and because if I want it,

730
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 1: I get it. And that's why I'm like acts of

731
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: service and just like touch and rubb it. Please thank

732
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 1: you so much? Do you know what I mean? Like this,

733
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,720
Speaker 1: There's so many other things you can do for someone

734
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: besides you have to buy me nothing.

735
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,720
Speaker 3: But if you want to scratch my head for thirty minutes, yes, person,

736
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 3: that's exactly, Oh.

737
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 1: My god, yes, if you want to be thoughtful, come

738
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 1: back home with like another silk pillowcase. Oh thank you?

739
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: It is wow, Yeah it is.

740
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 3: I feel like people just assume that since you're so

741
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 3: extravaging towards yourself, that you require so much. It's like, no, no, no, no, no,

742
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 3: I require very opposite. Yeah, some other people around me like,

743
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 3: I will treat myself well, but all you have to

744
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 3: do is just find a kink in my back and

745
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 3: rub into.

746
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: It, you know what. I think Sometimes people are intimidated

747
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 1: when you like yourself, which is so crazy to me

748
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: because sometimes the compliments are backhanded where I'm like, did

749
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 1: you mean that? Or you want to take that back?

750
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: And it's just like where are we going with this?

751
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 1: Like I don't mind complaining, but like, at the end

752
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 1: of the day, I love me.

753
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 3: Well, it's just it's just one of those things where

754
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,320
Speaker 3: it's like people are like, how did you get so confident?

755
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, no, baby, what trauma did you go

756
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 3: through to not have any confidence? Is not unnatural? Guess

757
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 3: I enjoy my own companies. Well, remember how I played

758
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 3: hooky the other day?

759
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 1: Yeah you do.

760
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 2: And just like I spent the weekend teaching my kids

761
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 2: how to swim and you know who didn't get to

762
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 2: swim this weekend, dad, So I just like played hooky and.

763
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 1: Went swimming in the middle of the day. And my

764
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: wife still doesn't know this episode. Love are You? And

765
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,720
Speaker 1: he's like, oh, I'm in speedos at the Soho house.

766
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 2: I was not in speedos. I have the thighs for speedos, okay,

767
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 2: but I do.

768
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: I do definitely like a nice short dad short, like

769
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: a nineteen fifties dad short. That's me. Oh, I've seen

770
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: all your bathing suits. But Salmon, can I tell you?

771
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:36,839
Speaker 1: We went on a kidless vacation to Greece for a week,

772
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: three couples. Everyone's got a suitcase. This motherfucker shows up

773
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: with the medium size soft bag. I'm like, more than

774
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 1: one pass shoes, where is your toothbrush? And like his

775
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 1: poor wife was just like he didn't pack this bag

776
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: till like forty five minutes before we left. Me while

777
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: I've been packing for over two weeks, setting out dresses,

778
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: trying to think of moments.

779
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 2: I was making the money to go on the trip,

780
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 2: all right. I was busy making the money to go

781
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 2: on the trip. I didn't have time to pack, all right.

782
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:08,800
Speaker 2: Need Clay to make bricks.

783
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: Are you giving me when he gives me politician fingers

784
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: like that, I feel like he's about to give me

785
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,399
Speaker 1: some Obama in fucking two point two.

786
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, because that's an inaccurate assessment of situation, because both

787
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 3: of us are working to make the money for these trips.

788
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: I know that you're doing it. I know what you're

789
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: doing it. Packed I'm talking about me. I'm talking about me.

790
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: I'm not talking to you. I'm talking about me. Listen, listen.

791
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: Maybe you're right, Okay, but I definitely bought some shorts

792
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:34,799
Speaker 1: on that trip. You don't see that's mine.

793
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 3: Fair Like if you're buying stuff on a trip, that

794
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 3: makes sense. I personally, whenever I travel, I bring an

795
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 3: additional three weeks of clothing longer than I'm.

796
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: Because a girl needs options. Bitches. Okay, Look, just.

797
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 3: Because a trip is in summer doesn't mean I'm not

798
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 3: gonna bring my winter coat justin Covid.

799
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: I gotta do it for the culture, the rhythm, the rhyme.

800
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: Have you ever dragged coat across the floor? Have you

801
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: ever done that?

802
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,320
Speaker 3: Haven't drive a coat across the floor like the fucking

803
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 3: Aretha Franklin walking on stage, knocking off for fur coat.

804
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:17,920
Speaker 1: Yeah you mean yes, Oh my god, Okay, I bring

805
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: my person on stage, of course I did. What are

806
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 1: you asking me here? That's something real bitch, What a

807
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: great segue in terms of asking you some real ass ship.

808
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:33,359
Speaker 1: We have people our audience. They're fucking cute and really

809
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: don't know much. Just kidding, we're learning. Wow that edit

810
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: that out. So we get some questions from our audience

811
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: that we try to answer, but like, we have gotten

812
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: some really crazy ass questions, Like somebody asked us if

813
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: they should buy a turtle, and I'm like, or just

814
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: get a hug, Like okay, okay, sir, are you down

815
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: a clown and answer? So there's some questions with this

816
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:05,839
Speaker 1: every time. Oh, if a relationship ends with someone who

817
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 1: also works in the same industry as you, what are

818
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: the certain dos and don't of how to move forward respectfully? Oh,

819
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 1: this is why I've never had a comedian know what

820
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 1: I feel like, is the wrong answer? Get them blacklisted

821
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:22,920
Speaker 1: from that industry.

822
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the right answer to me. To me, that's

823
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 3: the right thing to do, but it's the wrong thing

824
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 3: to do. Like I've like, that's why I specifically have

825
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 3: never dated within the industry because I just think it's

826
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,320
Speaker 3: it's just too uncomfortable it is.

827
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 1: Have you been tempted? No?

828
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:47,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think comedians are funny. No, they're They're

829
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 3: all wonderful, but it's yeah, it's like it's for me.

830
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 3: It's very much like a sisterhood in the comedy world

831
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 3: side of her, really like a sister and brother that

832
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 3: i'd ever want to like. I'm never attempted by because

833
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 3: it's just it's just a community that I love. And

834
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 3: if I love the old day too, oh my god,

835
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 3: you have it.

836
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 2: You know.

837
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say. One of the don'ts is don't talk

838
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 1: shit about the other person. If somebody asks you what

839
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 1: went down, how to go, it's just like you know, everybody,

840
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 1: it's something very general, like it just went in different directions.

841
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: I wish them the best because people will take that

842
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,719
Speaker 1: seat and turn it into a game of telephone that

843
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 1: you probably can't control. So be mindful of your motherfucking mouth,

844
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 1: especially when you think somebody there's a linded trip in

845
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:34,760
Speaker 1: every fucking community.

846
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 3: And also remove yourself from a situation if you feel

847
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 3: like anything, it's like it's it's not worth any fight

848
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 3: or arguments happening in public.

849
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 1: Is it worth it?

850
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 3: If you feel like you're upset or annoyed or frustrated,

851
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 3: get yourself out of that space you deserve to be Like,

852
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 3: I feel like that's the things that you're like the

853
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,800
Speaker 3: concert sharing of spaces, like it's gonna suck here and

854
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 3: there and until it's in a mutual like a comfortable space,

855
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 3: just keep away.

856
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

857
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: I also say it's messy because it's not like a

858
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:09,800
Speaker 1: divorce where you could have a clean cut of you

859
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 1: get this and I get this, and we get to

860
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: see the friends and the family on this time. This

861
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,799
Speaker 1: is like, you know, a workspace with someone that used

862
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: to date. Seriously, I would also have like, uh, like

863
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 1: I would have a sit down with them if if

864
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 1: you could to talk about expectations, like you know, what's

865
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 1: it gonna look like for us? And I don't know

866
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 1: company parties, I don't know. This is why you just

867
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: can't sit on every day. It's gonna get complicated.

868
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 3: True, but it's I think the issue with a lot

869
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 3: of situations is like once they well, a lot of

870
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,239
Speaker 3: relationships in because of lack of communication. So after you

871
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,320
Speaker 3: break up, you should still try to gain better communication. Afterward,

872
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 3: you have to convey what's going on. You have to

873
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 3: say what's upsetting you and what's bothering you to them directly,

874
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 3: not around them, not near them like in a day.

875
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 3: You have to talk directly to them at any point

876
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 3: in time about this. And it's as sick as you

877
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 3: want to be of it. And it's like that, if

878
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 3: you guys want to keep away from each other, then yeah,

879
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:11,320
Speaker 3: extract yourself from that situation. But yeah, it sucks, but

880
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 3: you just have to be as long as you're communicative.

881
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 2: I think I was just like listening to a podcast

882
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 2: about breaking up and what it said was to remember

883
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:25,240
Speaker 2: the way that relationship made you feel and to honor

884
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 2: that and that way you won't become toxic around that

885
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 2: person as much in a post facto and that you

886
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,359
Speaker 2: left for certain for certain reasons, you know, And it's

887
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,320
Speaker 2: that is hard. That is hard because you have to

888
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 2: be professional and you have to be grown up at

889
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,359
Speaker 2: the same time. So you've actually which is why people

890
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 2: don't try to do it customarily. So it's be kind

891
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 2: to yourself too, because you're asking a lot. Now, you're

892
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,320
Speaker 2: asking yourself to remain professional in this situation.

893
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: Also, don't be that hoe because it feels like when

894
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 1: people meet at work me at work is because they're

895
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: spending a lot of time at work and they don't

896
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 1: have time to meet people, you know, elsewhere. So like,

897
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 1: even though somebody might be a sounding word for you,

898
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 1: don't get involved with somebody else right away because they

899
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,400
Speaker 1: understand what you're going through and shit. So I'm just like,

900
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 1: don't do that either. Don't be that home. Yeah, okay.

901
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: Also take a vacation, yes, eat, pray, love, bitch, even

902
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: for a long weekend. Yeah, you have to.

903
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 3: You have to get a moment away from the person

904
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,359
Speaker 3: and the job because those are distance, they're so intertwined.

905
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: So you can be set. Yes, I want to go

906
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 1: to Napa. I call my tips in Napa Valley. Let's go. Yes,

907
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 1: I'm but if they cheated on you, though, feel treated

908
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 1: drag them to hell. Look, okay, do I have to

909
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,840
Speaker 1: give someone a wedding gift if I'm traveling to the

910
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: wedding from out of town? Hell smon, you just went

911
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 1: to wedding in Mexico? No what you did?

912
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 3: No?

913
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:03,759
Speaker 1: Wait, look so I did.

914
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:05,319
Speaker 3: I did travel to Maco, and I had great time,

915
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 3: and I actually did get them a gift. But I've

916
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,759
Speaker 3: like that, but I'm in a like I'm I'm in

917
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 3: a financial situation where I'm able to get the additional gift.

918
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:14,239
Speaker 1: Right.

919
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 3: However, if you it is a lot to ask somebody

920
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 3: to be in a different place, get on plane yea

921
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 3: for like. So No, honestly, I don't like. I don't

922
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 3: think there should be any requirement for anyone for their

923
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:28,359
Speaker 3: wedding gift.

924
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:30,880
Speaker 1: Everything is too much at that point, Like you're already

925
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 1: asking people to travel and stuff.

926
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and if they don't like, and honestly, I'd

927
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 3: be surprised if they didn't understand that.

928
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, if they're shitty about it, then, Yet, weddings bring

929
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 1: out the worst or the best in people. I have

930
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: broken up with people over my wedding, yeah, which is

931
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,359
Speaker 1: great that I've noticed since seventh grade. And I'm just like, oh,

932
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 1: what I don't need is this.

933
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, It's like, you can't be stressing people out over

934
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 3: your wedding, and you can't be stressing people out over

935
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 3: their wedding. There has to be some sort of like

936
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 3: mutual respect for each other. So like, if somebody's asking

937
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,479
Speaker 3: you to go somewhere and they're still expecting a gift

938
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:04,800
Speaker 3: that person might be just a little too much to

939
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 3: have in your life.

940
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, yeah, we all don't need a Karen Form

941
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:15,280
Speaker 1: muling grace. Oh, this is a cute question. How important

942
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 1: is it for a man to have a proper skincare routine?

943
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 2: That's exactly what I was going to ask that question. Really, Yeah,

944
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:23,839
Speaker 2: that was the one I pa. I was like, oh god,

945
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 2: this is so good.

946
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 1: It is integral for a man. A good routine, Yes,

947
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:32,880
Speaker 1: speak on it, speak on it.

948
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 3: And also not even like just a simple bare boat

949
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,839
Speaker 3: like just some The amount of men that don't put

950
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:42,960
Speaker 3: fucking lotion on their fucking elbows is insane to me.

951
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 3: The amount of like Callius dry hands the thing they

952
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,680
Speaker 3: can touch my body and I'm like, what are you doing, sir,

953
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 3: Yeah you can't.

954
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,400
Speaker 1: It's like Skeletor is trying to fingerbang me. I don't like.

955
00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 3: You are touching delicate parts with rough skin.

956
00:47:59,760 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

957

963
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 3: Like facial washing your face is important, but like a

964
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:24,560
Speaker 3: facial moisturizer will do you so much good. It's just

965
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:29,879
Speaker 3: it's it's such a light amount of work. It's really

Speaker 2: And so I got in there and then you know,

994
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 2: they made me a new person. They just took all

995
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 2: these like I felt like a rattlesnake peeling their skin off.

996
00:49:58,920 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 1: It was really bad.

997
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,239
Speaker 2: And then they were like, oh, you need all these

998
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 2: products and gave me all these products. And I was like,

999
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:10,360
Speaker 2: you know, because usually they're like, oh, this will be

1000
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:12,279
Speaker 2: perfect for you, but you know they're trying to like

1001
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 2: sell you on them, but like they're like you really Yeah,

1002
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,479
Speaker 2: So so I bought these four products. There's a mist

1003
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:23,279
Speaker 2: that I use, a serum mist. But we start, of

1004
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:25,480
Speaker 2: course in the shower with the face wash.

1005
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 1: We have the body wash.

1006
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 2: The big mistake that I was making was I was

1007
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:32,800
Speaker 2: using my body wash my face and then I know,

1008
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:34,280
Speaker 2: I know, come.

1009
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:38,800
Speaker 1: Back, I'm still here. Infant baby, No I left. I

1010
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:43,240
Speaker 1: left it. You couldn't hear me close the door quietly,

1011
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 1: and then came back, come back, come back.

1012
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:49,240
Speaker 2: I was on it and I was using body lotion

1013
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 2: on my face, so I was not doing right things,

1014
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 2: and I just I was like, this is it.

1015
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 1: I gotta do better. I'm on TV now I can

1016
00:50:57,920 --> 00:50:58,279
Speaker 1: do bad.

1017
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,439
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I also Pharrell's Lumen, which is really nice.

1018
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 2: So after I wash my face, then I use this

1019
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:09,439
Speaker 2: thing called Lumen. It's really good, very light. Again, I'm

1020
00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 2: not advertising anything, but I think it's a really great formula.

1021
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 4: Giving us politician fingers. As you're talking about I use lumen.

1022
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:20,600
Speaker 4: It's really good on your face. Certainly discussity. It's very nice.

1023
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 4: And then you finish it off with an s p F.

1024
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 4: Because this woman was like, you need sun block, and

1025
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 4: I was like, okay.

1026
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:30,760
Speaker 1: Why do black folks think we don't need sun.

1027
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,560
Speaker 3: Block because we like to have something over white people?

1028
00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,879
Speaker 3: Do you ever pretend not to be sunburned with friends?

1029
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 3: I wear some block, but I'm never gonna let them

1030
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 3: know that.

1031
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm going.

1032
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 3: To be on these streets going what the SPF? But

1033
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:47,879
Speaker 3: I don't know that means I've never.

1034
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:48,080
Speaker 2: Heard of it.

1035
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 1: It's like, don't know, lie, I'm way too yellow to

1036
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,680
Speaker 1: live that motherfucking lie you said. Everyone's like, oh, I

1037
00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,160
Speaker 1: love your freckles. I'm like, as well placed skins cans there.

1038
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: Let's move on to what else are we doing? That's

1039
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,959
Speaker 1: so good though, I'm so glad. I'm so happy for you, Jordan.

1040
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 1: I mean, my husband just got into a skincare routine too,

1041
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 1: And like for a white man that didn't even want

1042
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 1: to get a pedicure, I didn't even know what the

1043
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 1: fuck that was when I first met him. We have

1044
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:22,120
Speaker 1: come a long way. Oh no, wait, I love I

1045
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: love this question. This question is so stupid. Is it

1046
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 1: cool to have everyone wear the same shirt at family reunions? Ma'am?

1047
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 2: I laughed because I knew where it was going. I

1048
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 2: laughed because I knew where it was going.

1049
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 1: Ma'am. Well, you're from the South, Jordan, I feel like

1050
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 1: this is your thing.

1051
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 2: First of all, at a FEMI reunion, when black folks

1052
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,839
Speaker 2: get together and do a whole bunch of nothing, it's

1053
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,879
Speaker 2: very important that we wear the same damn T shirt.

1054
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 2: So in an African American family, sometimes it's good to

1055
00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:59,880
Speaker 2: wear them because hotels in the South will be like,

1056
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,440
Speaker 2: it's Black weekend, and they'll be like, the only date

1057
00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 2: we have available for that particular room is the twenty

1058
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 2: eighth of July.

1059
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:10,840
Speaker 1: And you find that.

1060
00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 2: There's four other black family unions happening in the same

1061
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 2: hotel the same weekend, and so like, you best wear

1062
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 2: those T shirts so that you can identify cousin to cousin.

1063
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. So that's that's really good.

1064
00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 1: So so you and I t y yes, the unity

1065
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: all this to say wear those T shirts.

1066
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:32,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, we were like we were traditionally the up and clothing,

1067
00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:35,719
Speaker 3: so it's that's our version of the same shirt. But

1068
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:38,719
Speaker 3: we were like the nice like white linen outfits with

1069
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:41,240
Speaker 3: embroidery on it. It's a fun thing to have anything

1070
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 3: traditional wise, especially with the aspera, Like that's a fucking

1071
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:46,040
Speaker 3: that's your own, that's your own legacy.

1072

1126
00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:44,359
Speaker 1: is self care is not selfish, not by a country mile,

00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 1: as we say down South, not one motherfucker bit what
