98
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 3: karaoke is entertainment, and that is the truth.

99
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 4: You don't want to do You.

Speaker 1: But like the time, and that is why.

103
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 2: The time I was at karaoke with Marylyn Rice cub

104
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 2: So she signed me up to sing nothing Compares to You,

105
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 2: an absolute dirge that never picks up, everyone hates, and

106
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 2: I was so, I hate karaoke anyway because usually well

107
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 2: I'm sober, I would be doing it sober. So I'm

108
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 2: just like, it's already hard and then it was like

109
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: five minutes of just the same thing as the SOB.

110
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: That's a lot. That's a hard one, too much, that's.

111
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 4: A hard one.

112
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

113
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, can't really dress it.

114
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 5: Up unless you start crying, well or like end on

115
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 5: the floor or something like tighten it.

116
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: Or like trans I don't know.

117
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 5: Sometimes you can do innuendos in the middle of it.

118
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 2: Oh.

119
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 5: Like there's a song Strawberry Wine, which is a country song,

120
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 5: and it's about a girl going to like live with

121
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 5: her uncle for a summer and she has like a

122
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 5: summer fling with a farm hand and it's so filthy. Ye,

123
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 5: but it's all romanticized. And so when I sang it,

124
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 5: when I used to sing it at the the karaoke

125
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 5: part of How Joy Chinese Restaurant in Greenville, Mississippi, I

126
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 5: would really and you endo it up and it killed

127
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 5: it really killed.

128
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 2: It was like you're putting the new the modern twist

129
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 2: of like, hey, should we have been singing this song

130
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 2: yeah in the day because this is filthy.

131
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 4: And then at the end you tear a picture of

132
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 4: the pope up.

133
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. Take that, Mississippi.

134
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 3: That were you into karaoke when you before comedy and everything, or.

135
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 4: Just you did it because other people I did it.

136
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: It was like the thing.

137
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 5: So I did this program called Teach for America in

138
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 5: right after college, and I was placed in Greenville, Mississippi,

139
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 5: which is in the the Delta of Mississippi, which is

140
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 5: like where Sinners was set. Oh sure, okay, so good,

141
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 5: and it's not that different from that film.

142
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: It does feel very similar.

143
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 5: Not a lot has changed, great catfish, amazing, blues, terrible

144
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 5: at schools and they needed a lot of help. And

145
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 5: so we would come in fresh out of college knowing

146
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 5: zero and teach in these schools where they just were

147
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 5: having a hard time hiring people.

148
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: I think.

149
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,120

00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 5: who sang Broken Wing by Martina McBride.

164
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: It was a lot of you know, a lot of

165
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: country because it's in Mississippi. Sure, and would you just

166
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: bring the down?

167
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 5: And I don't know what she did for work or

168
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 5: why she was there, but it was she had the

169
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 5: voice of an angel.

170
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

171
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 2: I saw that one night at the Mint, which was

172
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: a karaoke spot right on the edge of the Castro

173
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 2: in San Francisco when I lived there and worked at

174
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,719
Speaker 2: the Gap across the street. Yeah, we would all we

175
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 2: close it down and go over to the Mint. And

176
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 2: a woman there one night sag Aerosmith's dream on and

177
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 2: it was the most incredible thing I've ever seen.

178
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, and to this day, yes, yeah, I mean she should.

179
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 2: Have been like I feel like if American Idol started,

180
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 2: you know, ten twenty years of those rubber boots.

181
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, they were perfect rubber boots.

182
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: If American Idol had started in the eighties, we would

183
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 2: know who this woman should be a household name. Yeah,

184
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 2: But she also kind of just she had like a

185
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 2: buzz cut and she was kind of like regular lady.

186
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 2: But it was I was like, how are we all

187
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: witnessing this? And I could have been drunk, but it

188
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 2: was very magical experience.

189
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: I love those.

190
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, really it stays, and that's what I hope every

191
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 5: time karaoke, that I'm doing that for someone, which I

192
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 5: know that's not the case, that's what you.

193
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: Want, but that's that's the goal.

194
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:14,839
Speaker 4: Yeah.

195
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 3: There has to be a balance though, because I've been

196
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 3: to these nights where everyone is professionally good at singing. Yeah,

197
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 3: and it's like, oh, get over yourselves, Like for some reason.

198
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 5: I don't want you, don't want to every single person

199
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 5: to be great.

200
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's have a couple human Yeah.

201
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 5: My friend is a musical theater genius and he teaches

202
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 5: voice and he all of his friends are musical theater performers.

203
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 5: And I went to karaoke with him and my normal

204
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 5: Like I took a risk singing just once by James Ingram,

205
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 5: which again I know it's a risk.

206
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: Yes, so good, so good.

207
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 5: But everyone else was like literally nailing whatever Broadway song

208
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 5: they sang, you know, and everybody we sang the song

209
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 5: from Rent five hundred and twenty five thousand, six sorta

210
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 5: minutes and everyone knew and like on the part where

211
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 5: you know, most like one person usually like goes freestyle

212
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 5: right everyone's room. Everyone in the room did like this

213
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 5: amazing run and it was really it was terrifying that

214
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 5: happened to me.

215
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 2: We went to Maurice Crisis one night when I was

216
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 2: in New York City. I think I was working on

217
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 2: a show there, and so it was supposed to be

218
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 2: this fun thing and I didn't realize it, but my

219
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 2: friend put my name in, but every other person that

220
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 2: it's just a guy with.

221
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: A piano, and then people getting over.

222
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 5: It's like, oh my god, it's live piano, live piano.

223
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 2: It's fun, real Broadway people. They're there to drink after

224
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 2: they just were in the chorus for something but burn

225
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 2: off steam. Yes, and they're so good. They're in the

226
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 2: forest just like waiting for their moments. So like a

227
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 2: Maurice Crisis song, everyone's like, this is incredible and suddenly

228
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 2: they're like Karen and I was just like, oh shit,

229
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:00,959
Speaker 2: God damn.

230
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 5: It, and I just left you did you weren't there anymore?

231
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: I could? I want to be that.

232
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 5: I know.

233
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 2: One instance, I was ten years old and Andrew mccartial's

234
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 2: cast album of Annie.

235
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know what I mean where it's like

236
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: belting it out or whatever.

237
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 2: And then over the years realizing loud isn't always good.

238
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 2: You have to get everything else kind of right. And

239
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 2: so then sitting in this bar watching people just be

240
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: able to get up and like with no mic sing,

241
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 2: you know, lean on a piano and then just deliver,

242
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 2: I was like, that's all I would I would love

243
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 2: to do it more than anything, and I know I'm

244
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 2: not going to be able to. I just am not

245
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 2: gonna be able to even touch their the hem of

246
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 2: their garment. I have to go, oh man, And everyone's like,

00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 2: what is.

248
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 1: Wrong with you?

249
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, that way you get up there and then

250
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 5: tell them the song and the person just plays it.

251
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 1: They know it. Yeah yeah, oh and they had to have.

252
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 5: The words like in your brain, yeah that's it.

253
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 4: Wow, that's skang.

254
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 3: A lot of someone's as a surprise, Oh me, okay,

255
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 3: I guess I mean.

256
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: Right, And then I'm at gleen I'm stuck with that

257
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: and just the most obnoxious nasal shit.

258
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 3: Yeah.

259
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 5: It's a good vocal exercise to sing with your with

260
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 5: that note, with that yeah yeah sound, though, it really

261
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 5: opens you up.

262
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,439
Speaker 2: It was very apparently it was very popular in the

263
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 2: late seventies early eighties of singing like that.

264
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally kind of all head head voice, I guess.

265
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 4: Yeah. I like to sing from right behind my nose. Yeah,

266
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 4: I sing.

267
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 3: A lot of people go from the diaphragm. I go

268
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 3: from the septum.

269
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

270
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 3: Yeah.

271
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 5: In New York City they had rooms karaoke rooms, and

272
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 5: you could pay during the day four dollars an hour,

273
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 5: sometimes two dollars if you bought a coke and have

274
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 5: the room for an hour two hours. And so I

275
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 5: would go sometimes by myself hmmm. And then you could

276
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 5: like try out different songs, right, this was before I

277
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 5: think karaoke tracks existed on LimeWire or wherever, right, And

278
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 5: so you would just go and sing, and you could

279
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 5: play with the key or you could skip if it

280
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 5: was a terrible song.

281
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: Hmm. And then I had my friend Michael.

282
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 5: I would force him to come and sing duets with me,

283
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 5: like musical theater duets. And he was like a train,

284
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 5: like he did musical theater in college, and he could

285
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 5: nail it. But we didn't always have the same repertoire,

286
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 5: but he could. He still sounded good even when and

287
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 5: his name was Michael Kine different Kane.

288
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 2: But wow, yeah, I mean that sounds so fun. It's

289
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 2: so fun because then you're kind of you don't have

290
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 2: to worry about the performance of it.

291
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: It's just your own enjoyment.

292
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 2: I think that's that's what I would be looking for,

293
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 2: because I'm just so like, yeah, well, this isn't good enough,

294
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 2: don't do it?

295
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: Like what a waste? And it's like, no, it's that's

296
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: not the point.

297
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 3: It's funny though, the nerves I've gotten and what the

298
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 3: nerves get you rooms, so I don't if there's an

299
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 3: audience of strangers, importantly, that's when I.

300
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: Will be able to do that's easier for you.

301
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 4: Yes, if it's my fan, like my sister.

302
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 3: Sometimes it's like, let's go to one of these karaoke

303
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 3: rooms and I'm singing and my dad is watching.

304
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 4: Okay, that's that's terrifying.

305
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's got his keys in his hand for

306
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: some reason. He's got to go yeah yeah and sit down.

307
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 4: People already loved me. I could only fuck this up.

308
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: You're not winning anybody over your conditional love though, right, yeah,

309
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 2: unless you lose it, right right. We went to the

310
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 2: karaoke rooms in New York that it was on that

311
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 2: same job, and my friend Hayley was super drunk and

312
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 2: everybody was but me, And so she kept doing a

313
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 2: thing where she would pick a song and she would

314
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 2: take the microphone out into the hallway and shut the

315
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 2: door because she wanted to do an entrance and she

316
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 2: felt like an entrance would really be.

317
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: The thing, it would set her up, yeah, for success,

318
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: And so she would.

319
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 2: Go outside and the song would start and then she

320
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 2: couldn't hear it because she was outside, and so over

321
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 2: she did it like four or five times in a

322
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 2: row where she'd be like, Okay, started overg at it

323
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: this time, and then she'd just be drunk in the

324
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 2: hallway and we'd be like, Haley, go open the door.

325
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 2: It was the funniest, like she was so sure that

326
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 2: this was going to be the thing that nailed it

327
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 2: for her, and it's like, you have to be in

328
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: here to sing it.

329
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, I won't do well unless people see me

330
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 3: running from across the street and jumping through this flaming hoop.

331
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 5: Ye set it up, Yeah, gotta set up, set up

332
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 5: the expectations.

333
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was into it. And once you start doing

334
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 3: stand up.

335
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 4: That void gets filled.

336
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 3: But there's also a documentary called Karaoke Fever that I watched.

337
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: Really, this is a real thing, yes, And.

338
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 3: It was when I lived in Austin. It was just

339
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 3: one of the films in the festival. And it was

340
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 3: such a group of of a group of you know, nerds.

341
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 4: Thank you. I dance around that word nerds, just say it.

342
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 4: I do.

343
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 3: It's just I want to offend someone with tape on

344
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 3: their glasses. That's good at something.

345
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 4: Uh yeah.

346
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 3: It And it was like, oh, this is a this

347
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 3: is all these folks have. And it was kind of sad.

348
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: But they love it. They're happy.

349
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 5: They all documentaries are about, right, yeah, someone who is

350
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 5: obsessed about King Kong or whatever. You're not King Kong

351
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 5: Donkey Kong right right right or King Kong? And they

352
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 5: that's they do that to the exclusion of everything else

353
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 5: in their lives, right, relationships.

354
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 3: Yes, you see it, tearing apart, taking away any chance

355
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 3: of a normal life, traveling around to compete in karaoke contests.

356
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lennon, I first heard of you, yes, may I

357
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 2: may I tell you please? I first heard of you

358
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 2: because when I were wrote on Pete Holmes talk show,

359
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and every it was all mostly the writers

360
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 2: on there were all New York comics, and they all

361
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 2: knew you, and several had gone to UCB and you

362
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 2: were their teacher, and they should worship Pete Holmes, especially

363
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 2: just worship you.

364
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: They talked about you. I was kind of like, oh,

365
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 1: my god, that's enough. Okay, I don't know her.

366
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: But but then my sister started watching Playing House when

367
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: that came out. And my sister, which I told you,

368
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 2: is your number one fan, is that show's number fan,

369
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 2: and she forced me to watch it. And then it

370
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 2: was like, fine, everyone's right about her. Fine, And then.

371
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 5: I became your number one fan. That's so sweet, that's

372
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 5: so funny. I was so excited for Pete when he

373
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 5: got that. Obviously he'd been working so hard before that

374
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 5: as well. And but yeah, he was in I think

375
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 5: he was in an intensive that I taught, maybe like

376
00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 5: just level one improv. And he's told this story. I

377
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 5: think I've told this story.

378
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 1: But he was.

379
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 5: He's so funny and specific and so smart, and he

380
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 5: was playing a witch doctor in a scene and he

381
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 5: but he was just physically himself and so it was

382
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 5: like Pete Holmes, and I guess that could have been

383
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 5: the interesting thing is that this witch doctor was just like,

384
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 5: you know, a normal white guy, white dude, but he

385
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 5: was the specifics were very witch doctory, and so I

386
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 5: was like, I was like, pause the seed, and I

387
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 5: was like, Pete, can you like physicalize this, Let me

388
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 5: see this in your body.

389
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: And we went on a little further and it was

390
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: it didn't work.

391
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 5: That note did not work, and so I paused it again,

392
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 5: and I came up onto the stage or in the

393
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 5: classroom with him, and I was like, I'm gonna be

394
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 5: the physicalization of your character and I want you to

395
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 5: match me as you're saying the smart things you're saying

396
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 5: and so and anyway, it was like this this moment

397
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 5: that felt like a success for both of us, I think,

398
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 5: and so yeah, and then he went on, obviously to

399
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 5: do exactly the thing between the scene to great success

400
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 5: and having his own show and all that stuff. But yeah,

401
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 5: that was fun. I really loved teaching improv. I loved

402
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 5: teaching just teaching in general, I.

403
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 2: Think, Yeah, and being in that kind of scene. I mean,

404
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,160
Speaker 2: that must have been amazing to be in that UCB

405
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 2: scene in New York at that time. It's kind of

406
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 2: the place to be, right, Yeah, for sure.

407
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: The I mean.

408
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 5: The first thing I did when I moved to New

409
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,199
Speaker 5: York was take Second City because I had gone to

410
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 5: college with Jack mcbrear and he was a senior when

411
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,640
Speaker 5: I was a freshman, and we used to goof around

412
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 5: during our work study in the costume shop and we

413
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 5: would just like be putting away vintage like women's forty shoes,

414
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 5: and we would pop in and of these.

415
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 1: Like characters like a British elf or whatever.

416
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 5: You know, and it was so fun and I had

417
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 5: never played like that with anybody. Yeah, And then I

418
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 5: watched him as he went to Chicago and did at

419
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 5: First Io and then Second City, and I was just

420
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 5: so like he was the funniest person that I had

421
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 5: ever known in my life. And so it was it

422
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 5: felt correct when he started to succeed and get recognized

423
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 5: in the way that. And he's also so generous with

424
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 5: his with his advice or with his time with his.

425
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: Home, you know, Like.

426
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 5: I think he just felt grateful that he was where

427
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 5: he was and doing what he was doing. And one

428
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 5: summer I lived in Chicago and I taught again. I

429
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 5: taught at a day camp, and I lived in Evanston

430
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 5: from college, and I would go see Jack every Friday

431
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 5: night doing Improvalympic.

432
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 1: It just like totally blew my mind.

433
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 5: And then he I was hanging out with him and

434
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 5: his friends from his team, TJ jag Gadowski and a

435
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 5: couple of other people that I was like just totally

436
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 5: obsessed with, and he was like, Lennon, I think you

437
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 5: could do this. I think you'd be real good at this.

438
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 5: And I was like, I mean I just kind of

439
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 5: held it close, you know. And then when I got

440
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 5: to New York, I saw Second City was offering classes

441
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 5: for they had for a little bit Second City Classes

442
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 5: in New York, and so I signed up and I

443
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 5: did their whole essential training program and then in during

444
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 5: the like Sketch showcase at the very end, I met

445
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 5: two girls, Molly Prather and Leslie Mizell, who were on

446
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 5: house teams at UCB.

447
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,199
Speaker 1: I had never heard of it, yea, and they were like,

448
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: they invited me to be on a in.

449
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 5: A three on three improv tournament, and so I did

450
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 5: improv on the UCB stage before ever taking a class

451
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 5: in front of Matt Wall Oh wow, Ian Roberts and

452
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 5: I think Sean Conroy and we did not win, and

453
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,959
Speaker 5: I was terrified. And then afterwards I kind of found

454
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,239
Speaker 5: out like what I had just done was insane. And

455
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,439
Speaker 5: then I signed up for classes because I was like,

456
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 5: oh my god, like people are waiting in line to

457
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 5: be in these classes because it was before the internet

458
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 5: and all that jazz, and so you had to like

459
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 5: come real early in the morning and just sit on

460
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 5: the sidewalk to sign up for classes. Yeah, and then

461
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 5: once I was in class, it was clear that that

462
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,199
Speaker 5: was the place to be. And then I got on

463
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 5: a team after taking like four classes there, and my

464
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 5: team was had Zach Woods on it, Joe Wengert, Anthony King,

465
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 5: who ran my writer's room for Playing House, and we

466
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 5: hired him on Best Friends Forever as a staff writer

467
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 5: because he was like the smartest, funniest person I knew.

468
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 5: And now he's like gone on to write all these

469
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 5: Broadway musicals and all signed really yeah, he well, he

470
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 5: was like a musical theater guy. He worked at I

471
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 5: think Manhattan Theater Club and he's got great stories. But

472
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 5: he wrote Beatle, he wrote the book for Beetlejuice the musical.

473
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 5: And they're doing a Univision is it not Univision? What's

474
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 5: the euro Vision? They're doing a Eurovision one. And then

475
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 5: are we getting on the highway? How excited to do

476
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 5: you ever get out and go into Ikea? We're so close.

477
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 5: She'd be just shopped really quick. Nothing is really quick

478
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 5: in the Ikia and Gutenberg. I don't know if you

479
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 5: heard about this musical. It's a two person musical about

480
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 5: that these two guys wrote a musical.

481
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: It's so meta.

482
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 2: It's like, anyway, it's a a musical about two guys

483
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 2: who wrote a musical.

484
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 5: Yes, and they're doing the musical for uh for backers.

485
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 5: It's kind of like waiting for Guffman esque in that way.

486
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 5: And Andrew Rynolds and Josh gadd just did it uh

487
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 5: re revived it on Broadway.

488
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: Oh wow.

489
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 5: And anyway, So anyway, So what I'm saying is my

490
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 5: very first team was like heavy hitters, and we all

491
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 5: were in love with each other, and then all around

492
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 5: us were all of these other incredible comedians and we

493
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 5: were doing it for free in a basement and getting

494
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 5: paid nothing. And I would have done it for free,

495
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 5: you know, for the rest of my life if I

496
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 5: could have liked it was. I still do improv. I

497
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 5: still love to do shows. It's like therapy. Yeah, it's

498
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 5: easy now you know. Now I know all the rules

499
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 5: and how to break them, and.

500
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, it's just so fun.

501
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 3: It really would help to have a friend that was

502
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 3: doing it successfully say hey, you could do this.

503
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 4: I yeah, that's the best situation to be in.

504
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and being that friend is so it's crazy, right yeah.

505
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 5: Mcbreer and also Jason Minzukus. They both like helped me

506
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 5: get to like I was already on a house team

507
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 5: and they were like, cause I was, I wanted to

508
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 5: like make forward steps, but I didn't quite know how.

509
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 5: And they were like, you need to start doing ASCAT

510
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 5: And I'm like, which is the big Sunday night show

511
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 5: that like all the Saturday night life people were doing.

512
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 1: And I was like, how the hell am I just like,

513
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: you know, like make that transition.

514
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 5: And they were like, just go every week and one

515
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 5: week they'll need people, yeah, because one week will be

516
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 5: a holiday and everyone will be not there and whatever.

517
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 5: And so I was teaching improv and I would teach

518
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 5: on Sundays, I think I don't remember, like five thirty

519
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:48,239
Speaker 5: to eight thirty or something, and so I would go

520
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 5: catch the last of the seven thirty show and then

521
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 5: stay for the nine thirty show. And one week I

522
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 5: was there in my teaching outfit was like a ratty

523
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 5: American Eagles T shirt and sweat and Chris Gethard and

524
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 5: Billy Merritt were they were just short and they were like,

525
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 5: come on, and I was like, and this was like

526
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 5: after two years of going every Sunday night to watch

527
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 5: you know, the best improv in the world. And I

528
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 5: was doing shows twice a week, probably like Harold shows

529
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 5: on the Harald Night and then Saturday night I had

530
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 5: a show with Ruben Williams my other team, and I

531
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 5: sat in and it was terrifying. And I don't think

532
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 5: I ever came off the back wall. Maybe once somebody

533
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 5: pulled me into a scene, and then from then on out,

534
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 5: I just I just kept going. And then I like

535
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,159
Speaker 5: was folded into the rotating cast and got less and

536
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 5: less scared, and you know, yeah, was.

537
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 3: There a point where because when I did improv, it

538
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 3: was mostly the games like short forms improv where I

539
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 3: would just try and think of.

540
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: A joke yep, and grab that, yeah, grab that last.

541
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 3: I don't care what anyone else working towards. I'm going

542
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 3: to get a laugh, and which is bad. But the

543
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 3: times we dabbled with longer form. I was so scared. Yeah,

544
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 3: like so different to me because you're not going for

545
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 3: a laugh or you're trying to.

546
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 4: Build a story. Did you see there was a difference,

547
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 4: Like were you scared to do long form improv?

548
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 5: It felt better to me, honestly than short form. I

549
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 5: think like I had done comedy sports once in high school, right,

550
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 5: and you just have to be so quick, and it

551
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 5: felt less intuitive to me than the improv where you're

552
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 5: building relationships and characters and finding comedy together within that, Yeah,

553
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 5: based on human behavior. Like that felt like because I

554
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 5: went to theater school like to be an actor, and

555
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 5: so I learned all this stuff, and so it felt

556
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 5: like I could actually that was like a skill I

557
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 5: could bring to the playing field, was to really ground

558
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 5: it and make it feel real.

559
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: And then inside of that, we're finding the truth in comedy, which.

560
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 3: Is a book.

561
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 4: Helper. I remember reading it.

562
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 5: One of the first shows I ever did in New

563
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 5: York was called Tom Soder's Improv and it was short form.

564
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: It must have been had another title.

565
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 5: But Tom Soder was the guy and he would like

566
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 5: scout I think this is the truth. He would scout

567
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 5: like indie shows and find people or maybe he had auditions.

568
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 5: I might have gone to like a backstage open call.

569
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 5: And then I got invited to do the short and

570
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 5: they were short formed. They were comedy sports kind of games,

571
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 5: and I had been obsessed with comedy.

572
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: What's the one? Oh my god? The short form? Whose

573
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: line is it?

574
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 3: Anyway?

575
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 4: I had been.

576
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 5: Obsessed with the British version and then the American version

577
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 5: and the Drew Carey hosted, and then so I knew

578
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 5: all the games, but like it just was so hard,

579
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 5: like yeah, and I'd be so happy when we would

580
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 5: have a scene to do, as opposed to like, yeah, yeah,

581
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 5: you know that finding those jokes and that those funny

582
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 5: rhymes like was so terrifying. It's so stressful to just

583
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 5: do that on the spot like that, like I don't know.

584
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 4: It's funny. Yeah.

585
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 3: The opposite problem, I didn't have the patience for seeing

586
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 3: the build and I'd get anxious, No one's where's the jokes.

587
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 4: That's why I ended up doing stand up, I think.

588
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, the difference when I got tricked into doing an

589
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 2: improv class and I was always like, there's.

590
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 3: No way, did someone just announce your name and you

591
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 3: had to get on Well, it.

592
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 2: Was Marilynn when she was taking it and she goes,

593
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 2: just come with me, you could just sit in the back,

594
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 2: and I'm like, oh great. And it was Chris Barnes

595
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 2: from Second City in Chicago. He was like, no auditing

596
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 2: in this class, get up here on the stage, and

597
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 2: I was like everything about it where I'm like, oh no,

598
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 2: I'm a stand up in that way of like I

599
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 2: control it. I get the laugh like there's no one

600
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 2: interacting with me, like control control, and so it was

601
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 2: so scared. I was already scared just to even watch it.

602
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 2: And then I was like, oh no. And the first

603
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 2: scene I ever did, he's like, okay, Karen, start an

604
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 2: action and this guy will walk in.

605
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

606
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 2: So I of course I'm just like blindly so scared,

607
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 2: flipping Hamburgers with no you know what I mean up

608
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,719
Speaker 2: here weird spacework whatever. And the guy walks in and

609
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 2: he asked the question. I just turned my back and

610
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 2: Chris goes, okay, hold on, it's just he's not there,

611
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 2: and I'm.

612
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, I don't, Yeah, that's not my problem, Like

613
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: literally would not acknowledge the guy.

614
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 2: The guy in the scene, and it was like it

615
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 2: took a why a couple classes to even just like

616
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 2: let it go and be like it's not supposed to

617
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 2: be the funniest thing every single time you talk like

618
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be real.

619
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: And it was so helpful for comedy.

620
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 2: Like after I did, I think I was better at

621
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 2: stand up and I was looser, and there was like

622
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 2: the ease of just being able to be on stage.

623
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's like it really turned my head around.

624
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 2: But I was so afraid of it for so long

625
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 2: that it felt like the scariest thing I'd ever done.

626
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 5: I imagine it would help with crowd work, but you know,

627
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 5: like and kind of go in with the flow if

628
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 5: you get off track to get you back to where

629
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 5: you're going or whatever.

630
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 2: Right, yes, yes, And that people enjoy a performer who's

631
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 2: enjoying themselves as opposed to someone who is like I

632
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 2: have my words memorized and you will respond this one

633
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 2: way like that. I just had a really strange approach

634
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 2: that like once I was like, just like what you're

635
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 2: doing and allowed them to don't turn your back on

636
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 2: the audience as you're doing it, just like a little

637
00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 2: freer and easier.

638
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 5: See, And for me, stand up is so terrifying, Like

639
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 5: I can't imagine. I've done a one woman show and

640
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 5: that was terrifying. But like being other characters, like I

641
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 5: think just saying out loud, this is what I think

642
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 5: is funny.

643
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: It's so scary.

644
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 5: But to also say my name is this, and this

645
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 5: is what I think is funny. Have you guys ever

646
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 5: noticed like it's so, it's so, it would just be so.

647
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 5: I just I've done stand up in character and it

648
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 5: was so hard. So I just have such respect for

649
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 5: stand ups in general because it's I just could.

650
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: I don't think I could do it.

651
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, for a while, when I moved to Austin, I

652
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 3: was doing both and there'd be a show where, oh,

653
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 3: the early show, I'm in the improv group, and then

654
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 3: the light show I'm doing stand up, and I never

655
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 3: could do well at each of them in the same night.

656
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 4: They were like either my brain was in improv mode.

657
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 1: Isn't that funny?

658
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 3: Or yeah, oh without fail, Oh the improv was fun.

659
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 3: That means I'm going to eat it at stand up.

660
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 3: It's probably my brain, but they're different muscles.

661
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 5: But it's true too, Like you know I've done I

662
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 5: used to do touring company shows, you know, and on

663
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 5: a different night, like the audience the first thing I

664
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 5: did bombed and so they were like, nap, I don't

665
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 5: like her, she's not funny. And then you're like, oh god,

666
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 5: and then the next show you're fine, you know. Yeah,

667
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 5: So it really depends on where you are, And I

668
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 5: mean with stand up, it's a similar thing, right, like

669
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 5: what works in Kansas isn't going to work in Ore

670
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 5: again or whatever.

671
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 2: My thing is like I would always get up and

672
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 2: immediately see a blonde guy that would not smile, and

673
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 2: that's like, he's the only person in the room. Now,

674
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,919
Speaker 2: now I am as bad as he his expression, which

675
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 2: could have nothing to do with anything, like right, who

676
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 2: knows what that guy's deal is, But I'd be like

677
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 2: laser focused and then it just like constant mental duress

678
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 2: as you're just like, here's my speech. Why won't you

679
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 2: crack a smart like it's such a crazy kind of

680
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 2: way to do things. But then like the first time

681
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 2: I did I can't remember if it was Askat or Armando.

682
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 5: Are they the same, and just yeah, it's the same form.

683
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 5: It was created by I think Armando Diaz. It was

684
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 5: named after him. And then they kind of it's the

685
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 5: just the monologue form. So you have a monologist, which

686
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 5: I think is a word that was created for them,

687
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 5: because monologist is not.

688
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: A word in the world.

689
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 5: Monologists who tell stories, funny stories, sometimes not funny stories.

690
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 5: And then the improviser's improvise inspired by that, Yeah, but yeah,

691
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 5: askat was the New York version of the Armando or

692
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 5: that UCB version of the Armando.

693
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 2: It just is like such a fun in between, like

694
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 2: you as a comic get to be a part of

695
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 2: the improv without having to do improv learn improv or

696
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 2: be that good at it, and then the story doesn't

697
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 2: have to be Like the first time I did it,

698
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 2: I was just like I have to be so good

699
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 2: because the people that are about to improvise are so

700
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 2: good whatever mindset. But it was like, but you can't

701
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 2: be because it's the suggestion. So it's like, well, you

702
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,439
Speaker 2: can scrape your brain for some quote unquote hilarious bit,

703
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 2: but actually they just want to hear you tell a

704
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 2: real story so that the next thing is good.

705
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, And then the.

706
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 2: Looseness of that allows allowed me to then be like, oh,

707
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 2: this is fine. I'm just gonna tell a story about

708
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,400
Speaker 2: my childhood dentist and it turns out to be funny,

709
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 2: not because I'm making it funny.

710
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 1: I don't know.

711
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,760
Speaker 5: I just think so satisfics of it are so funny,

712
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 5: Like if you're telling a real story, like my dentist

713
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 5: was named doctor Eichel, and he had giant photos of

714
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 5: himself in front of the pyramids on like wall murals,

715
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 5: and you can't make like that's just what that's reality

716
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 5: and that is such a dumb specific And then from

717
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 5: that you can there's like thousands of things it could

718
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 5: then be made up. So it's easier when the monologist

719
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 5: is not trying to be funny, you know, or they're

720
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 5: just telling. Sometimes they get in their head or they

721
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:15,399
Speaker 5: like run out of steam or you know, and it's

722
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 5: only it's you know, it's the hardest it's ever been

723
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 5: is when someone was clearly not being truthful. Yeah, like

724
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 5: they were making up stories and you're like, okay, well

725
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 5: this is already a ridiculous improv seeing like how do

726
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 5: I take this to the next you know, and make

727
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 5: something out of it?

728
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, you just make their character a compulsive liar.

729
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 4: Hey where'd that come from?

730
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 1: Yeah?

731
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, that's so funny.

732
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 3: Or Dennis, those pictures the guard that the orthopedic surgeon

733
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 3: that did my hip years ago was had photos of

734
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 3: him sculpting marble in like where you he could get

735
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:53,879
Speaker 3: the same light as the.

736
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 5: Masters and jeez, Louise Gee, yeah, they was that here

737
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 5: in Los Angeles, Yes.

738
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 3: And they seem pretentious and everything, but I knew from

739
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 3: those photos that he was sure of himself.

740
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 4: Like that's one of the thing.

741
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: That you wanted. A surgeon is someone that is the

742
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: most cocky you ever met.

743
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, that must mean you're good. I don't have to

744
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,439
Speaker 3: hang out with you. I just want to be able

745
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 3: to walk.

746
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 5: You just have to be so good that you know

747
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:24,840
Speaker 5: that you think that you could do your work on marble.

748
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 4: That's so funny.

749
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,240
Speaker 3: And yeah, pictures in the lobby of him sculpting marble.

750
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 2: I got gum surgery one time, and the antithesiologist was

751
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 2: one of the most like irritating, I shouldn't say irritating,

752
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 2: like the strongest personality where he called me beforehand he

753
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 2: was like, Okay, Karen, I need to talk to you

754
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 2: about your wit and weight and like all these different

755
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 2: things where it's just like okay, and he was just

756
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 2: like this presence in my life for like two weeks

757
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 2: before I got the surgery. So when I went in

758
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 2: to have him put me under, I literally was just like, oh,

759
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 2: this this guy, he's a pro. Like he told me

760
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,280
Speaker 2: he was a pro ten times. Yeah, he just laid

761
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 2: it all out in this perfect way. And then I

762
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 2: was just like, I am in the perfect hands. So

763
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 2: it was kind of effective. But yeah, I would not

764
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 2: want to eat dinner with him.

765
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,879
Speaker 1: No, yeah, no offense or what if he's my number

766
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 1: one fan.

767
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 2: He's like, I listen to all of your goddamn podcasts

768
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 2: and now you turn describe to.

769
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: Your patrioch, my major mouth what it is today.

770
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 3: If all of the Hollywood were to shut down, Lennon,

771
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 3: would you what is your plan?

772
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 4: B what is your favorite pastime?

773
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 1: Well?

774
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 5: I don't think I I think I would Uh, I

775
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 5: would probably become a midwife.

776
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 1: Okay, have you ever helped birtha baby? Yeah?

777
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 4: Well I mean specific right me.

778
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,800
Speaker 1: I've helped myself, Yeah I did. You were very helpful

779
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:58,919
Speaker 1: in those than you did. Yeah.

780
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 5: I would help him midwife both times, which was incredible, and.

781
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 1: It went very fast. It was very.

782
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 5: Intense, and I was I had like done this really

783
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 5: intense birth class ahead of time.

784
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 1: It was a ten week class.

785
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 5: Normally you just go to the hospital for like two

786
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 5: three hours or something, but this was every Sunday for

787
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:29,320
Speaker 5: ten weeks for three hours. It's a lot of content

788
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 5: and we learned because I think before getting pregnant, I

789
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 5: had not even considered what the what giving birth was

790
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 5: going to be like, or really what was happening while

791
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 5: I was pregnant, just like I want to be a

792
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 5: mom kind of, and so getting pregnant once that was

793
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 5: happening to me, and like learning the intricacies of what

794
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 5: your body does as a birthing body.

795
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.

796
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 5: I was just like totally blown away. Yeah, and I

797
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,839
Speaker 5: loved being pregnant, which is not not everybody has that experience.

798
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,240
Speaker 1: What did you love about it?

799
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 5: It felt like I looked like the pictures for the

800
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 5: first time, Like you open up a birthing book and

801
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,720
Speaker 5: you're like, yeah, that's me. Whereas if I'd ever looked

802
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 5: in a I don't know, does that make sense.

803
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,360
Speaker 1: Like like you're glowing and it's embodying you.

804
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,080
Speaker 5: Well, like my physical body looked correct for the first

805
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 5: one ever. Always I'd always been like too skinny, too tall,

806
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,359
Speaker 5: too flat chested, to whatever, you know what I mean

807
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 5: too young, too old.

808
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 1: Not till now have I been too old.

809
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 6: But.

810
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 5: Just that I and then I had like this larger purpose,

811
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 5: like my physical being had a larger purpose, and so

812
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 5: I took really good care of myself, like limited my

813
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 5: caffeine and take like track my protein.

814
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: I do not do that any of the other months

815
00:41:59,200 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 1: of my life.

816
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, made you do your self care?

817
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly.

818
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 5: I was doing yoga regularly, like all this stuff, and

819
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 5: and so that I liked all that. And then also

820
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,879
Speaker 5: just the natural piece of it, of like the kind

821
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:23,439
Speaker 5: of accomplishment of it, like the physical.

822
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 1: Like what your body like this like.

823
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:33,720
Speaker 5: Shit, like if you were passed out, your body would

824
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 5: give birth to the baby without your help.

825
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 4: Oh your kidding? Is that true? I did not know that.

826
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't.

827
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure, but I mean that's what contractions do.

828
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 5: They literally work the baby. The muscles are squeezing the

829
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 5: baby out of you. Okay, So like without your help,

830
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 5: potentially it would be way easier because once you get

831
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:01,799
Speaker 5: once the fear piece enters into everything changes, you know,

832
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 5: and anytime you go it's the only time that you

833
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 5: go to a hospital potentially where it's not something bad

834
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,320
Speaker 5: it's happening, you know. So we have all these negative

835
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:14,840
Speaker 5: associations with hospitals and stuff. I've been in hospitals a

836
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 5: lot of times. It's never been great, you know what

837
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 5: I mean, Yeah, no matter how good your doctor is

838
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 5: or your nurses or whatever.

839
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I just was just really fascinated.

840
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 5: Like once the baby comes out, you put the baby

841
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 5: on you, your body temperature will rise to warm up

842
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 5: the baby like shit like that. Like that's crazy, yeah,

843
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 5: like you it's somehow it's in there internally, you know.

844
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And I just had not thought. I just

845
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,280
Speaker 1: not had not considered.

846
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 5: But when I went into labor, I had all of

847
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 5: this information that I don't think most pregnant women get,

848
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 5: like what the different stages of labor are like that.

849
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 4: Especially our parents. You just there was that book, yeah right,

850
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 4: like yeah.

851
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 2: Well and I'm sure you know this Linon but like

852
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 2: I just I'm sure I saw a TikTok on it

853
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,360
Speaker 2: or something. But like how women having a baby laying

854
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 2: down with their knees up is the worst position they

855
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 2: could be in. And the only reason they put women

856
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 2: in that position was for the doctor.

857
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: It was easier for the doctors so crazy.

858
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, so when you're in that class, you're learning all

859
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 5: the different positions that you could potentially be in and

860
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 5: all that stuff, and the things that would make it

861
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 5: feel better, the things your partner can do to help

862
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 5: help you make it feel better. But also for me

863
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 5: as a control freak, like knowing that there was a

864
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 5: part called transition where you might throw up or feel

865
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 5: nauseous or your legs might start shaking.

866
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 1: And that precedes the like pushing phase.

867
00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 5: Like having that information, and then when my body started

868
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 5: doing it, I was like, oh, Okay, this is transition.

869
00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 5: This is supposed to be happening, not you know, nothing

870
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:05,480
Speaker 5: is wrong. Yeah, I'm safe, And then I could kind

871
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,319
Speaker 5: of breathe into it. And then but I did get

872
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,960
Speaker 5: to the hospital about an hour before both of my.

873
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 1: Children came out, just because I would.

874
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 5: You know, they tell you that it's going to take

875
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 5: forever and you should stay at home as long as

876
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 5: you can, and so yeah, we got to the hospital

877
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,719
Speaker 5: at three thirty and then she was born at four

878
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 5: forty three thirty am four forty am, and then my

879
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 5: son was similar. We left the house at seven. We

880
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 5: got to the birthing center at seven fifteen. He was

881
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 5: born at eight fifteen, but I'd been in you know,

882
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 5: labor previous to that.

883
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

884
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, so maybe a midwife, I think I like that.

885
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:46,439
Speaker 4: Yeah.

886
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 3: Any you're right, any job where you're like immediately helping

887
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 3: someone and there's immediate results, Yeah, that would be.

888
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 5: That would be I would just like to know, Like

889
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 5: I would just like to learn about all of that,

890
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 5: you know, I would like to have a reason in

891
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 5: to know everything there is to know about it.

892
00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

893
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,360
Speaker 2: And that idea that you could be helping with the

894
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 2: fear piece of a thing that's that powerful. Yeah, Like

895
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 2: here's the way you should You can look at it

896
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:14,879
Speaker 2: as opposed to oh my god, I'm throwing up, Oh

897
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 2: my god, my legs are buckling or whatever.

898
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's great.

899
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 5: When we when we wrote the birth scene in Playing House,

900
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 5: you know, I think I had seen a lot of

901
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,479
Speaker 5: like giving birth scenes, and it's always like the woman

902
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 5: screaming you did this to me, and like, which is

903
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 5: very funny, but was not my experience. It was not

904
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 5: the experience of many people that I knew, and so

905
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 5: I wanted to portray like a different version of it,

906
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 5: you know, So we we tried to avoid the tropes

907
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 5: of it. I guess because for me, like reading all

908
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 5: of these, I'm sorry, I'm really distracted by the Sebastian

909
00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 5: stand double.

910
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: At the car next to us. For me, like reating

911
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,479
Speaker 1: all these like.

912
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:09,839
Speaker 5: Positive like birth stories like from May. I think her

913
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,360
Speaker 5: name is Aname. I was gonna say Ina Garten, but

914
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 5: it's not. It's definitely not hers. She gives birth to

915
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:21,399
Speaker 5: different delicious chickens, chicken dishes. Yeah, but she's this very

916
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 5: famous midwife who had this place in North Carolina I

917
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 5: think or Virginia.

918
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,719
Speaker 1: Called the Farm. I think that's what it's called.

919
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 5: Maybe not great name, but she was like a community

920
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 5: of midwives and women would come there to give birth,

921
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 5: and then there were all of these stories that came

922
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 5: out of those experiences. And you know, I think a

923
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 5: lot of people we tell we tell stories that we

924
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,839
Speaker 5: want people to be engaged in, and so a lot

925
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 5: of times they're scary stories or there something went wrong,

926
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 5: and with every birth something happens that's not usually not usual,

927
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 5: you know. But I just wanted to tell us a

928
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 5: different version that was still a story but also showed

929
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 5: birth maybe in a different light.

930
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, like a little calmer and.

931
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 5: More to your experience, and like you have everything you need,

932
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:12,279
Speaker 5: right kind of thing.

933
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember any of those trophy birth scenes. My

934
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 3: mom would get so offended and insist that birth was

935
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 3: not painful for her.

936
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,319
Speaker 1: Oh, she wasn't painful at all.

937
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, she's how many? Did she have nine pound baby too?

938
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 1: Okay, but good for her.

939
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe she's just tough. She's just showing off how

940
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 4: tough she is.

941
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 1: It is.

942
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 4: And then she'd asked me an arm wrestle.

943
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 1: Did she have an epidural? Do you know?

944
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 4: I don't know's we never talked. She was, but I

945
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 4: think it was very She.

946

00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:54,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

949
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 2: Every time I see a birthing scene, I then look

950
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 2: at it, going, what if I had to play this

951
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 2: part and scream this much? Yeah, and this intensely, which

952
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 2: it's not just these three minutes, it's actually she had

953
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,400
Speaker 2: to do this for four hours.

954
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 1: Sometimes I do try to.

955
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,360
Speaker 2: Scream a little bit, just to see, like, what would

956
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,719
Speaker 2: my birthing up screaming sound like.

957
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 5: Because I've never had a baby, I wouldn't know. Can

958
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 5: I tell you what I sounded like? Yeah, I gave birth. Okay,

959
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,799
Speaker 5: hold on, analyse. You might want to turn it so

960
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 5: it was like it was the most insane, guttural like

961
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 5: where did that goes?

962
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 1: Like otherworldly, I don't know, like it was. It was

963
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: not screams.

964
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:47,719
Speaker 5: It was like gutteral like Torso noises, Yeah, Torso noise exactly.

965
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:52,920
Speaker 2: But I mean even though it wasn't like the worst screaming,

966
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 2: there was an experience in there that you were having

967
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,720
Speaker 2: that was like muscles twisting around.

968
00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, yeah, right, it would.

969
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:06,240
Speaker 3: Be more like it's it just pressure. It just would

970
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,239
Speaker 3: be such a foreign it is.

971
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 5: It's like nothing you've ever felt before, and you know,

972
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 5: nothing that you could describe to someone.

973
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:16,200
Speaker 1: I described it, this is terrible.

974
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 5: I described it once as you know, before you have diarrhea, sure,

975
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,759
Speaker 5: that feeling that you have that like flushes from your

976
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 5: face down through your entire body. And then you and

977
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 5: that happens like four times, and then you're diarrhea maybe

978
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,440
Speaker 5: and then you're like, oh, I better get to a toilet.

979
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: You guys all know what I'm talking. Yes, you should

980
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: show you.

981
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 3: Should be a midwife, sure, but also you should speak

982
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:47,320
Speaker 3: to groups of men who who and explain what Bertha's

983
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 3: like and give them the diarrheas.

984
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, the diarrhea. Oh, no, I get it. Yeah, that's

985
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 4: what my wife's going through.

986
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,480
Speaker 1: And it feels like you're you don't have in that

987
00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:00,959
Speaker 1: moment that you're not in charge anymore, right, you're your diary.

988
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 5: And you need to get to somewhere fast and and

989
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,359
Speaker 5: but it feels like a wave and it moves through

990
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 5: your body. That's what it felt like to me to

991
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 5: have contractions. They kind of start high and then they

992
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 5: move through low. But it's it's the most intense feeling

993
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 5: you've ever had.

994
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 4: What is the most painful experience You've ever had?

995
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 1: The most pain? Yeah, I guess I guess that.

996
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,840
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know. Yeah, fell and cut my

997
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 5: knee open one time I had I had spine surgery,

998
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:45,160
Speaker 5: but I didn't thanks to my faces anesthesiologists. You didn't

999
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,320
Speaker 5: have any pain at all and the recovery was okay.

1000
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess surgery. I'm just thinking, Yeah, I've had

1001
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 3: my hairpriplace. But I wouldn't use that as an example.

1002
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,320
Speaker 3: It would be the time I was stung by many,

1003
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 3: many many bees.

1004
00:51:58,640 --> 00:51:59,840

Speaker 5: Times with Road, I know, that's like when that happens.

1027
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,840
Speaker 3: It's like people out there that get struck by lightning

1028
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:18,759
Speaker 3: multiple times, It's like, what did I do it?

1029
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:22,640

1030
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1031
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 5: But yeah, one time we were filming promos for Playing

1032
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 5: House and because for the last couple of years. We

1033
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:40,040
Speaker 5: paid for our show with integrations basically, and so we

1034
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:44,719
Speaker 5: agreed to like integrate products into our show for Comcast,

1035
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:50,960
Speaker 5: Toyota and like Maytag I think, and or Samsung I

1036
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 5: can't remember, but we would integrate it into the show

1037
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,279
Speaker 5: and then we would also write commercials for them which

1038
00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:59,920
Speaker 5: would air during the show on demand or whatever. And

1039
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 5: they were good, they were funny.

1040
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,800
Speaker 2: I watched those and I'm like, this is a hard

1041
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:06,239
Speaker 2: this is a hard assignment.

1042
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,800
Speaker 1: And think anyone's ever said it's true. It's true.

1043
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:11,880
Speaker 5: It was the hardest thing, but thank got it. We

1044
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 5: had a writer's room at the time because they were

1045
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 5: all crack at it, crack, crack at it. Yeah, they

1046
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 5: were crack jacks at it jack and they.

1047
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1048
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,799
Speaker 5: And so we were filming a Toyota commercial and we

1049
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:32,479
Speaker 5: were using a non union company that somebody knew, and

1050
00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,640
Speaker 5: they set up hair and makeup for like the cast.

1051
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:38,320
Speaker 5: We were just in a van, like it was so hot,

1052
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 5: and so they were like, we set up these.

1053
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:46,080
Speaker 1: Five cheers for you over here. And one of the chairs.

1054
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 5: Was on top of a wasps nest that was in

1055
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 5: the ground, and so we were getting touched up and

1056
00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 5: someone got stung in their crotch, because the wasp flew

1057
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:02,359
Speaker 5: up into this makeup artist's crot under her skirt, and I,

1058
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:05,840
Speaker 5: having experience growing up in the South with wasps nests

1059
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,399
Speaker 5: being in the ground, I looked down and saw the

1060
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:13,200
Speaker 5: wasps had just gotten the signal, right, it's go time,

1061
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:16,719
Speaker 5: gang yep, and so I screamed.

1062
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 6: Wasps ng And so everybody started taking off in every direction,

1063
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,440
Speaker 6: but like one person had been marked, and so the

1064
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,279
Speaker 6: wasp were chasing her, and then they were chasing all

1065
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:29,080
Speaker 6: these other people.

1066
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:33,240
Speaker 5: Luckily, the only person that was actually allergic was still

1067
00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:36,080
Speaker 5: in the hair and makeup trailer getting the sexy firefighters ready,

1068
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 5: and so she was not with us, but there was

1069
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 5: no medic on set because it was non union. And

1070
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,399
Speaker 5: after that we were like, fuck this, We're never doing

1071
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 5: it this way again. You have to have these are

1072
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:49,680
Speaker 5: the things you have to have in order to keep

1073
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 5: your crew safe.

1074
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:52,000
Speaker 1: Like this is insane.

1075
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:55,360
Speaker 5: And so Jessica got stung, our hair and makeup Alexis

1076
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,080
Speaker 5: and Kathleen both got stung. I think somebody else got stung,

1077
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 5: and we were like, we just railed. I mean, the

1078
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 5: next time we you know, had a call about it.

1079
00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,479
Speaker 5: We were like you know, we got very upset because

1080
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 5: obviously that's not acceptable.

1081
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,480
Speaker 1: But that's insane. Yeah, it was insane.

1082
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:12,799
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1083
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:15,760
Speaker 3: I was on a set once and there was because

1084
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 3: we had to work with a rattlesnake.

1085
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:19,719
Speaker 4: There was a rattlesnake handler.

1086
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:24,080
Speaker 5: There was it snake bitch, I don't know. There was

1087
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:27,160
Speaker 5: on bless this mess she didn't have. There was a woman?

00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 5: Was it a woman?

1089
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1090
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:32,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wish that this guy, if you could see him,

1091
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:34,400
Speaker 3: it would be really hilarious.

1092
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:39,359
Speaker 4: If his title was snake long heavy metal hair.

1093
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 3: Made me think of his yeah, backup days, being a

1094
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:51,160
Speaker 3: roadie for a CD. That's the thing he was doing, joke.

1095
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,240
Speaker 3: He had a fake snake. He was there to protect

1096
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:55,719
Speaker 3: us from the real snake, but he.

1097
00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:57,600
Speaker 1: Thought it was funny to have a face.

1098
00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he'd put a rubber snake under people chairs

1099
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,839
Speaker 3: and then go oh, looks like a guy loose and

1100
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:05,879
Speaker 3: everyone understandably was on.

00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:26,880
Speaker 3: I forgot that was the end of the story.

1109
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 1: Well maybe he learned his lesson and didn't do that anymore. Well,

1110
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 1: did not give him like feedback.

1111
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:33,080

1117
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:49,760
Speaker 4: I've gotten him canned.

1118
00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:53,160
Speaker 5: Well, there was a woman who was our snake wrangler

1119
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 5: on Bless this Mess, and she had legally changed her

1120
00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 5: middle name to snake Bitch and was one of the

1121
00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 5: best human beings I've ever known. And we would we

1122
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 5: had a game where we would flip each other off,

1123
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 5: like whoever could flip each other off first one and

1124
00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,280
Speaker 5: so like I would come out of the makeup triller

1125
00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 5: and she'd be like Helena and I would turn it

1126
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 5: to be flipping.

1127
00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 1: Me the bird and I'd be like, damn it.

1128
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:17,520
Speaker 5: And then I would try to catch her the next

1129
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 5: time I saw her, But she was always hunting around

1130
00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:22,400
Speaker 5: trying to keep us safe, not freak us out right.

1131
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:25,360
Speaker 1: But she was so it was like safe, the snake's

1132
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:29,000
Speaker 1: away fun safety. Yeah, yeah, safety can be funny.

1133
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 3: But would she a trainer of snakes, snake, pitch, all

1134
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 3: things snake?

1135
00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 5: Probably she was the word just a wrangler. So she

1136
00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 5: was keeping because we were shooting in Santa Clarita on

1137
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 5: Sable Ranch, which is like in the middle of the desert.

1138
00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:44,800
Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, so I don't she wasn't a trainer.

1139
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 3: When you say legally changed, did you see her ID?

1140
00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:51,280
Speaker 3: Did it say snake bitch on it? That's the best.

1141
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:53,400
Speaker 1: Yes, she had legally changed her name.

1142
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,160
Speaker 3: I met this guy in college in a bar and

1143
00:58:56,240 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 3: he was like a very serious hippie type kid, guy

1144
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:04,760
Speaker 3: with dreadlocks, and he said his name was fun and

1145
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:06,800
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, it is not. And they showed me

1146
00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 3: his ID and it just said fun on it.

1147
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:15,280
Speaker 1: One name likedons, but not fun. Oh that's what interesting.

1148
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:18,439
Speaker 4: Maybe he knew that and it was ironic, like.

1149
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 1: His initials were like Fred Underhill nance.

1150
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:25,880
Speaker 3: I just did not. Yeah, I would think you have

1151
00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:28,080
Speaker 3: to come up with a fake middle name and a

1152
00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:29,680
Speaker 3: fake not just one word.

1153
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, one s can't just be one legally one name

1154
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:34,560
Speaker 1: was my thing is.

1155
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:37,920
Speaker 2: These people that get these ideas are the kind of

1156
00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 2: people that can also get paperwork done where I'm like.

1157
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:41,520
Speaker 1: A lot of ideas.

1158
00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:45,040
