<v Speaker 5>Gerr.

0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 2>I have a rule about hot food on a plane. Yeah,

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.800
<v Speaker 2>you can't bring hot food. I hear that because everybody

0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:36.480
<v Speaker 2>can smell.

0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:39.720
<v Speaker 1>It, right herbled eggs is a cold food, you know what.

0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>It's just visually gross, but I guess they don't smell.

0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:43.959
<v Speaker 6>It's not like sulfur. But it is the idea of

0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:44.240
<v Speaker 6>it as.

0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:46.960
<v Speaker 5>Great should be more than just It shouldn't just be

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 5>hot food. It should there's there should be a list

0:02:49.840 --> 0:02:52.840
<v Speaker 5>of things that are not tenable for a flight, you

0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:55.440
<v Speaker 5>know what I mean? Because hardboiled eggs perfect example of

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 5>those could be fine in a container, in a ziplock container,

0:02:58.040 --> 0:02:59.959
<v Speaker 5>but as soon as you open the seal, then everyone

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 5>as exposed to that, so you need to swallow those

0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:03.720
<v Speaker 5>whole or like.

0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 2>The Yeah, Mario two, is that gonna vibe with anyone

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:08.080
<v Speaker 2>who listens to this member the egg creature that.

0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:11.679
<v Speaker 1>Would set off the eggs. Okay, I missed that game.

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:13.799
<v Speaker 5>And remember when times were so simple that you could

0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 5>play Super Mario Brothers. I used to get up at

0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:19.480
<v Speaker 5>my friend's sleepovers. We would be like ten eleven years old.

0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:20.960
<v Speaker 1>And I would set my alarm.

0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 5>I don't know why I was traveling with an alarm,

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.359
<v Speaker 5>but I would get up orly. I got set so

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 5>that I could get on the Maria Super Mario Brothers

0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 5>before the other girls at the sleepover woke up.

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Because it's like, no, no, no, I'm already on. You can't

0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:34.200
<v Speaker 1>push me off. I was not a schedule. So obsessed.

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I miss being that obsessed with something.

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:40.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh I feel like we are obsessed and we don't

0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 2>realize it.

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:42.560
<v Speaker 6>Like now it's just called an addiction.

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Of the phone. You mean, oh yeah, social media.

0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:46.640
<v Speaker 6>I have to take it off. I have to take

0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:47.920
<v Speaker 6>it off every day and put.

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 1>It back on. Where do you take it off of?

0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 2>I take it off my phone, and then I might

0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 2>take it off of your phone, take it off Instagram,

0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 2>and then I have to do this walk of shame

0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 2>where I scroll back to find the password that my

0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:00.880
<v Speaker 2>social media manager keeps for me. But rather than ask her,

0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 2>I just have it stored to like I'm lying to her,

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Like it's somewhere in my phone and I just go

0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 2>and I get it and I just erase it every night.

0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:08.560
<v Speaker 1>And sounds like you're lying to her and to yourself.

0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I am, this isrloss.

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.240
<v Speaker 5>You're so that makes me want to have a coffee.

0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:16.400
<v Speaker 5>And I don't even drink coffee.

0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:18.760
<v Speaker 7>Snack.

0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:21.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna have a snack with that little cookie. Yeah,

0:04:21.440 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>I like that. So we're at a nice hotel somewhere far,

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 1>far away. I would love a coffee. Thank you. Okay.

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:30.880
<v Speaker 1>First of all, Eliza Selessinger is here.

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.880
<v Speaker 5>She has a new special out which is fucking funny

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:37.279
<v Speaker 5>as shit. It's called a Different Animal. Are you the

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:39.159
<v Speaker 5>animal or is the special the animal?

0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Both?

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm the I was just I'm it's different. I think

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm different. I think I wanted to create something different.

0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:46.520
<v Speaker 1>I have to say.

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:48.599
<v Speaker 2>First of all, your house is so beautiful, and everyone

0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:49.880
<v Speaker 2>knows you have so much money.

0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Well why does everyone think I have so much money?

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand where the archways.

0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:55.960
<v Speaker 6>It would never occur to me to redo the arch

0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:56.880
<v Speaker 6>like doorways.

0:04:57.279 --> 0:04:58.960
<v Speaker 2>I walked in and you're like, I watched your special

0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:00.560
<v Speaker 2>and then for a second I was like, oh no,

0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:02.280
<v Speaker 2>she saw an old one, and like she thinks it's

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.120
<v Speaker 2>the new one. Someone sent you a link, which is

0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:10.240
<v Speaker 2>like peak Hollywood Elite. No other podcast had a link.

0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:12.479
<v Speaker 6>And I'm like, yeah, because you have people that get

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 6>the links.

0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>That is so funny. I mean, you got to sneak.

0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:18.560
<v Speaker 6>Nobody has seen this and so I'm blown away, well.

0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.560
<v Speaker 5>As the first person that's officially seen this special. Besides,

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:23.719
<v Speaker 5>I'm assuming you or maybe you haven't even seen it

0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:25.080
<v Speaker 5>yet because you don't even have the link.

0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:28.080
<v Speaker 1>I can forward you the link if you want.

0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:31.159
<v Speaker 5>I want to say, Ay, you're very prolific as a

0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:33.200
<v Speaker 5>stand up. This is your seven stand up special. This

0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:36.480
<v Speaker 5>one is on Amazon Prime. Everybody and Amazon and Hulu

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 5>are getting into stand up special so like those are

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:41.320
<v Speaker 5>good places to watch them too, And everyone now has

0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:43.799
<v Speaker 5>Amazon Prime. I'm assuming I guess not as many people

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:48.080
<v Speaker 5>as Netflix, but it is prevalent and pervasive. I say

0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:52.760
<v Speaker 5>that is pervasive. Amazon itself is pervasive. But you have

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.919
<v Speaker 5>such a talent. Thank you, you really do. You really have

0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 5>a great My stand up is very much storytelling, and

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:02.720
<v Speaker 5>you know personal story. You have a very clear talent

0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.440
<v Speaker 5>of structuring jokes, premises, punchlines.

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Would you even talk about in the special?

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.840
<v Speaker 5>You mentioned in the special, But I love your focus

0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:13.240

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I really I mean.

0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.880
<v Speaker 5>And also when you look up generations, it's like sometimes

0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.840
<v Speaker 5>they say, oh, eleven to fifteen years and then sometimes

0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:01.599
<v Speaker 5>it's a decade, and it's there's different definitions of it all.

0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:05.679
<v Speaker 5>But never mind that you and your special, you really

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:09.160
<v Speaker 5>delineate what the differences are between all of these with

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:13.360
<v Speaker 5>a lot of attitude and anger towards towards younger generations

0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:13.720
<v Speaker 5>from not.

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:17.200
<v Speaker 6>Working title attitude and anger, a lot.

0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:20.640
<v Speaker 5>Picking up the baton after you guys, After millennials just

0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:25.440
<v Speaker 5>like laid out everything for future generations, They're just like, wait,

0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:26.360
<v Speaker 5>what what do we do?

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:27.640
<v Speaker 1>The first of all, I would.

0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:28.960
<v Speaker 5>Just like to go on the record and say boomers

0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:31.760
<v Speaker 5>are the worst ones because they ruined our planet and

0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:35.840
<v Speaker 5>they they did they well they did now they had

0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 5>a lot of baby.

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Can I say something apologists? Not of them were apologists.

0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:44.800
<v Speaker 1>She's an elder millennial boomer apologist. I have to say.

0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:47.200
<v Speaker 2>There's this thing I wrote about this in my book,

0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:50.960
<v Speaker 2>like when you accuse a generation of something like what

0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:53.560
<v Speaker 2>are we expecting that boomers are going to collectively come

0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:55.960
<v Speaker 2>together and be like we're so sorry when we all

0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:59.000
<v Speaker 2>have those Amazon accounts, like we all postmate stuff, we

0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:01.680
<v Speaker 2>all order stuff from overnight. So while they may have

0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:04.720
<v Speaker 2>laid the groundwork in terms of like disruptive oil practices

0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:07.240
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that, like we contribute to it with

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 2>every frivolous purchase, with every sheen hall, boomers didn't invent that.

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 1>So they laid the groundwork but the.

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Perpetuation of it is definitely on all of our shoulders,

0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:18.160
<v Speaker 2>especially generation Zee.

0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:19.320
<v Speaker 1>What is a sheene hall.

0:08:19.760 --> 0:08:22.440
<v Speaker 2>A sheene hall is where you buy a bunch of

0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 2>clothes from Sheen from like fast fashion, and then you

0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:26.960
<v Speaker 2>try them all on and then you kind of throw

0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.640
<v Speaker 2>them away, but they were gonna dissolve anyway, and that

0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:33.040
<v Speaker 2>like rose to popularity in the pandemic, so you'd get

0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:36.280
<v Speaker 2>people that weren't really mindful, didn't really I guess we're

0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:39.760
<v Speaker 2>ignorant too. Fast fashion and that like Sheen and H

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 2>and M are like the number one pollutants of fast

0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:43.960
<v Speaker 2>fashion on this planet. So you would just order like

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.920
<v Speaker 2>fifty pieces of clothes for like a dollar, and you'd

0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:49.559
<v Speaker 2>try them all on and then maybe you throw them away,

0:08:49.600 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, or something like that.

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:52.559
<v Speaker 1>And so that's that's what a sheen hall is.

0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:53.120
<v Speaker 8>Okay.

0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:54.520
<v Speaker 5>I thought you were going to say, then you return

0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:55.960
<v Speaker 5>everything because you don't want it.

0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:58.400
<v Speaker 2>No, some would say that's even worse for the planet,

0:08:58.440 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 2>because then it's going back on.

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.640
<v Speaker 5>Anyone who doing that isn't caring about it, doesn't care

0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:03.760
<v Speaker 5>about the planet. Anybody's ordering a bunch of clothes, trying

0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:04.880
<v Speaker 5>them on and returning them is.

0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Not or keeping them and they go nowhere or you

0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:10.040
<v Speaker 2>donate them, but nobody wants them so cheap.

0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Every podcast I.

0:09:11.000 --> 0:09:13.360
<v Speaker 6>Do, like I come back to like sustainability, and people

0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 6>just like.

0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:16.120
<v Speaker 1>Turn it off, go back to Justin Belgone.

0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:19.040
<v Speaker 5>It's like that October seventh, let's talk about Oh yeah,

0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 5>that's the last time we saw each other right after

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.480
<v Speaker 5>the at a jew event right after October seventh.

0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:24.400
<v Speaker 1>Okay, but can I can? I?

0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:27.560
<v Speaker 2>You came. I invited you. I put on a benefit

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:28.960
<v Speaker 2>and they were like, who.

0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 1>Else can we invite?

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:31.640
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, I have Chelsea Handler's email and

0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:33.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't think she knows I have it. And I

0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:37.000
<v Speaker 2>emailed you and you wrote back and you came, and

0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.880
<v Speaker 2>that like elevated the event, like I tried to already,

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:41.680
<v Speaker 2>like we had tried to have some cool people there,

0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:43.840
<v Speaker 2>but like we don't know each other that well.

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:45.480
<v Speaker 6>And the fact that you were like, yeah, I'll be there,

0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:46.080
<v Speaker 6>I was just.

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Like that was such a cool moment where you definitely

0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:51.680
<v Speaker 2>did not have to answer that email and you definitely

0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:54.120
<v Speaker 2>did not have to show up, and like I felt

0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:57.640
<v Speaker 2>like anointed into like a cool comedian hall of fame.

0:09:57.640 --> 0:09:59.520
<v Speaker 1>That's just you and I well, I'm glad I went.

0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I went, I'm glad you came to Okay, So

0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 5>I don't want you to have to talk about sustainability,

0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:06.520
<v Speaker 5>but we can talk about shower sex. Let's talk about

0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:08.960
<v Speaker 5>schower sex. Let's talk about I want to know who

0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:11.320
<v Speaker 5>is having chower sex. This is a topic that Eliza

0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:15.400
<v Speaker 5>covers in her special in a hilarious way, and it's

0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:18.920
<v Speaker 5>kind of a you know, kind of calling out all

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:21.920
<v Speaker 5>men who are stupid enough to believe. I don't care

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:24.959
<v Speaker 5>how hot your relationship is, or how new it is,

0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:29.160
<v Speaker 5>or how horny you and your partner are, or your

0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:31.160
<v Speaker 5>you and your throutle are. You know, I don't want

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:33.440
<v Speaker 5>to discriminate. Maybe you have more than one lever and

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:36.440
<v Speaker 5>a group, but no one wants to fuck in the shower.

0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:37.559
<v Speaker 1>It's not fun.

0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:42.240
<v Speaker 5>No woman's sexy, it's not and your penis doesn't no

0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 5>one can feel anything. Also, nobody ever talks about the

0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:46.920
<v Speaker 5>fact that you can't you kill your penis inside of

0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:48.679
<v Speaker 5>vagina when you're in the shower.

0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:51.040
<v Speaker 2>When you're stressing, and like this idea that like, oh,

0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:52.920
<v Speaker 2>let's have shower sex. I'm like, we're not two gay

0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 2>guys at a crunch on like a Thursday, Like, we're

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:57.079
<v Speaker 2>not fucking in a shower.

0:10:57.360 --> 0:11:00.000
<v Speaker 5>Why do people That's another thing I want to discuss.

0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:02.640
<v Speaker 5>Thank you for bringing it up. It's like you have ESPN.

0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:07.800
<v Speaker 5>Why are people fucking at gym? Like gay men specifically?

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:09.960
<v Speaker 5>I know some gay men who specifically go to the

0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:11.880
<v Speaker 5>gym just to give blowjobs in the sauna.

0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:14.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand giving a blowjob, but I understand. I

0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 2>feel like if you're a gay guy, it's like extra testosterone.

0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:20.400
<v Speaker 6>So it's like at level ten all the time, and.

0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:22.960
<v Speaker 2>You're like, I gotta get it in because most men would,

0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 2>like my husband is like you just tell me, you

0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:27.439
<v Speaker 2>just tell me when he's like I'm always ready, and so.

0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.680
<v Speaker 1>It's like it's that times too. You're like, thank you,

0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:30.320
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that.

0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:33.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I know, But the showers, it's just more

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:35.719
<v Speaker 2>like you following me in here thinking I'm turning like

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:37.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm here to shave my armpits and like give the

0:11:37.800 --> 0:11:40.679
<v Speaker 2>illusion of a bikini line, and you followed me in.

0:11:40.760 --> 0:11:42.800
<v Speaker 6>I guess we have a bench in here.

0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:46.679
<v Speaker 2>One person is always cold, one person's always uncomfortable, the

0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:49.360
<v Speaker 2>lube gets washed away, perhaps in your.

0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:51.719
<v Speaker 5>Oh why are you suggesting that you use lube in

0:11:51.760 --> 0:11:52.240
<v Speaker 5>the shower?

0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:53.199
<v Speaker 1>I guess you should.

0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:55.920
<v Speaker 5>It's actually the opposite of a luber can't watter because

0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:57.360
<v Speaker 5>have you ever tried to fuck in the ocean.

0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:58.760
<v Speaker 1>It's the same thing.

0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:01.640
<v Speaker 5>It's the same thing, you know, Yeah, you can't get

0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:04.040
<v Speaker 5>It's like you need actually you need a lubricant, but

0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:06.040
<v Speaker 5>who's going to bring a lubricant to the Like you

0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:09.200
<v Speaker 5>get into the ocean and then lubricate when you're underwater.

0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:11.920
<v Speaker 1>It's just all anti It's it's like counterintuitive.

0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 2>You have a whole continuousy of like mermaid fans that

0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:16.560
<v Speaker 2>are like, actually I find aquatic sex.

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.280
<v Speaker 1>I think it all just makes aquatics.

0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:22.000
<v Speaker 2>I think it just speaks to like a woman's comfort

0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:24.959
<v Speaker 2>not being taken into account. And when you're in your twenties,

0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:26.640
<v Speaker 2>you're just like, yeah, i'll do that. It's hot, but

0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:29.880
<v Speaker 2>like you're not loving it, no, like, and you're cold,

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:31.720
<v Speaker 2>and you're looking down at your feet, which your toes

0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 2>are spread apart so you can get a grip, and

0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 2>you've got your chicken.

0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Feet and your hair.

0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:37.840
<v Speaker 2>I have curly hair, and so the whole time I'm

0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:41.360
<v Speaker 2>just like, do I look like the monster from Barbarian like.

0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Which is like, or does your husband's care? Answer? No,

0:12:44.880 --> 0:12:45.520
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't care.

0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.800
<v Speaker 2>I care, And if I don't feel hot, then it

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:50.760
<v Speaker 2>can't happen. And then if I do feel sexy, I'm like,

0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:53.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm too busy taking a picture of how hot I

0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:54.120
<v Speaker 2>look to have sex right now?

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.400
<v Speaker 5>Is that why you wore those pants during your special

0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:57.920
<v Speaker 5>to show people how hot you are?

0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:00.000

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.080

<v Speaker 2>I don't tell you why because I can, and I

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:21.679
<v Speaker 2>think as a woman, I think the more Carlos come

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:22.840
<v Speaker 2>on in, Carlos bring that business.

0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:25.440
<v Speaker 1>No reason you shouldn't become part of this podcast. This

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:27.360
<v Speaker 1>is so cute. It's so cute. I didn't even know

0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:30.120
<v Speaker 1>if this is available in my own home. It's so continental.

0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 1>That's how rich I am. You guys, I didn't even

0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:34.840
<v Speaker 1>know I had to. She just met Carlos, she didn't

0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:35.680
<v Speaker 1>even know he was here.

0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:40.720
<v Speaker 2>I saw, I'm and I love I love a fun

0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:44.559
<v Speaker 2>pant and the pants that I wore on my last special, I.

0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Remember a similar outfit.

0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.360
<v Speaker 2>It's a similar silhouette and I didn't mean to fall

0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:49.840
<v Speaker 2>into it, but we all, you know you dress for

0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:50.600
<v Speaker 2>your body type.

0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:51.800
<v Speaker 1>What's your body type?

0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:54.520
<v Speaker 6>Well, the thighs are all like I started doing pilates.

0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:56.600
<v Speaker 1>It's different, but I don't know strong core.

0:13:56.920 --> 0:13:58.800
<v Speaker 5>Excuse me one second. I don't want to cough over

0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:04.160
<v Speaker 5>you pair the okay, go ahead, just I mean.

0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:05.600
<v Speaker 2>It's just I don't know. I don't like to wear

0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:07.559
<v Speaker 2>a skirt on stage because I move around a lot.

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Like there's just things that you that you find empowering.

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:12.640
<v Speaker 2>And people were so upset about the last pant and

0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:15.520
<v Speaker 2>I was like, no, those pants are fire, these pants.

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I was scrolling through a.

0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:20.640
<v Speaker 2>Rave party wear website, as one does when they're trying

0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:23.920
<v Speaker 2>to conceive a child. I had had my daughter, and

0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember if I had just gotten pregnant with

0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:27.600
<v Speaker 2>Ethan or we were thinking about it.

0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>But I saw those pants and there was something about him.

0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:32.120
<v Speaker 2>I was like, those do you ever buy like an

0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:34.040
<v Speaker 2>article of clothing and you're like, I don't have an

0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:35.600
<v Speaker 2>event now, but I know I will.

0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:37.840
<v Speaker 6>Does that ever happen to you or do you have someone

0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:38.400
<v Speaker 6>dress you?

0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh god, no, I know what you mean.

0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:44.080
<v Speaker 2>I saw them and I was like, they're just I

0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:46.240
<v Speaker 2>liked that they had the microflare, Like I just I

0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 2>was like, that's something aspirational. So I bought them, and

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:53.040
<v Speaker 2>then I was pregnant for a full year and then

0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:55.600
<v Speaker 2>I just worked out every day with those, Like my

0:14:55.680 --> 0:14:58.760
<v Speaker 2>trainer would be like hips pants pants, like think about

0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.280
<v Speaker 2>the pants, and I just they reminded me of share

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.040
<v Speaker 2>like turn back down, and I just know that there

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:06.480
<v Speaker 2>will be a day that I shouldn't wear those pants, right,

0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.320
<v Speaker 2>And I just thought that they were cool enough while

0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:13.360
<v Speaker 2>not being super distracting. Do we had to iron out

0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:16.360
<v Speaker 2>the bulkiness of them in photoshop because they don't lay

0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:19.000
<v Speaker 2>right because they're like made of cheap plastic. Maybe, But

0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:22.360
<v Speaker 2>I just was like, these pants will upset enough people, yes,

0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:25.880
<v Speaker 2>and enliven people, and it'll at least be a talking point.

0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:28.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, well you're right, it is a talking point. So

0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:30.920
<v Speaker 5>good for you, mausotop, thank you. I was just I

0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:33.880
<v Speaker 5>thought they were just cool and I just liked them. Well,

0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.120
<v Speaker 5>I like that you It doesn't really matter if I

0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:37.880
<v Speaker 5>like them or not, it matters that you take a

0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:40.840
<v Speaker 5>risk and are like, you know, stepping into your own power,

0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:42.520
<v Speaker 5>and like, I'm gonna fucking wear these pants.

0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 1>That's all that really matters.

0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 2>That's what I mean. And also I do feel empowered

0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:48.800
<v Speaker 2>in them, and I do. It's like an extension of

0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.520
<v Speaker 2>who you are on stage. And I also think I

0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:54.680
<v Speaker 2>come from a generation of stand up and I definitely

0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:56.560
<v Speaker 2>was a huge part of this, Like just wearing a

0:15:56.560 --> 0:15:58.520
<v Speaker 2>hoodie on stage. I think there's a I think there's

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:00.000
<v Speaker 2>a video of view of like at the Ice House

0:16:00.640 --> 0:16:03.040
<v Speaker 2>like four hundred years ago, and you're wearing a hoodie, right, Like,

0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I feel like we women weren't encouraged to do that.

0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 2>And now I look at younger girls and they're just

0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:10.640
<v Speaker 2>like in a bra on stage and they don't think

0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:12.920
<v Speaker 2>about it, and I think that that's great, And so

0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:14.960
<v Speaker 2>I have to push myself to be like, no, you

0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:17.000
<v Speaker 2>can wear these things. You don't have to cover up,

0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.320
<v Speaker 2>and you can just be yourself on stage. And so

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:21.520
<v Speaker 2>when I do large shows, I feel.

0:16:21.560 --> 0:16:21.800
<v Speaker 9>Do you.

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:25.080
<v Speaker 5>When I came up, I was always trying to play

0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:28.360
<v Speaker 5>down my looks and be more tomboys, and I've never

0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:31.360
<v Speaker 5>really like I've never really worn a dress on stage

0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:33.880
<v Speaker 5>or a skirt on stage, Like even when I used

0:16:33.880 --> 0:16:37.040
<v Speaker 5>to wear heels on stage, I'm like, this is so annoying,

0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:38.040
<v Speaker 5>Like this is not who.

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I would ever be in real life.

0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:41.240
<v Speaker 5>But did you feel like you had to dial down

0:16:41.240 --> 0:16:42.960
<v Speaker 5>your looks when you were eyeing up?

0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 2>I think it's something that people talked about, But I like,

0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:46.280
<v Speaker 2>you can't.

0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:48.320
<v Speaker 1>Be funny and pretty, so cool it with the pretty?

0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh it was more normally it was an accusation like

0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:52.560
<v Speaker 2>funny and pretty, like what's the catch, And you're like,

0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:55.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, You're really ugly, so obviously it's the catch.

0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:59.600
<v Speaker 1>I have herpes, that's the catch, and I have I'm dying.

0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:02.280
<v Speaker 2>I am a tomboy, like I always grew up wearing

0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:05.560
<v Speaker 2>big T shirts and not really you know, you maybe

0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:08.080
<v Speaker 2>wear a tank top to a college bar when you're out,

0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:10.800
<v Speaker 2>but on stage, I just was always comfortable as that,

0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:12.479
<v Speaker 2>so I never went out of my way. But I

0:17:12.520 --> 0:17:15.480
<v Speaker 2>always felt like, remember I wore white ripped jeans on

0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.199
<v Speaker 2>stage at the Comedy Store in like twenty eleven and

0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:19.840
<v Speaker 2>I had a bad set and I was like, must

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:20.440
<v Speaker 2>have been the jeans.

0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:23.600
<v Speaker 1>We'll always dial it back and there is as a woman.

0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:25.760
<v Speaker 2>When you come on stage, if you do have a

0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:29.240
<v Speaker 2>good body and your dress sexy or it's revealing, especially

0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:31.679
<v Speaker 2>if you're unknown, it does take the audience and extra

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:34.480
<v Speaker 2>ninety seconds to get over it. And I was always

0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:36.159
<v Speaker 2>of the mindset like, Nope, I need to get you

0:17:36.240 --> 0:17:37.680
<v Speaker 2>right up top because I've got something to say and

0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:39.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't have these eight minutes. But as an adult,

0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:40.720
<v Speaker 2>I try to take more time.

0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:40.960
<v Speaker 8>Now.

0:17:41.160 --> 0:17:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and we're supper hands.

0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:44.960
<v Speaker 5>I mean you do jam a lot of material into

0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:47.840
<v Speaker 5>an hour. Yeah, And I don't mean jam as a negative.

0:17:47.880 --> 0:17:51.040
<v Speaker 5>I mean you really get so much bang for your

0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:55.840
<v Speaker 5>buck with every sentence, every joke, every premise you it's

0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:56.920
<v Speaker 5>very full body.

0:17:57.000 --> 0:17:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. I like that. It's very artistic.

0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:03.480
<v Speaker 5>I appreciate that artist, and in the form of stand

0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:05.359
<v Speaker 5>up like that's very very well done.

0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:08.760
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, Chelsea Handler. That means a lot I do.

0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:11.560
<v Speaker 2>I was watching some of Ali Wong the other day

0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:14.000
<v Speaker 2>and she's very deliberate and she speaks will say slower

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:16.679
<v Speaker 2>than I do. I mean most auctioneers do. And I

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:18.640
<v Speaker 2>was watching that, I was like, I could have gotten

0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:21.080
<v Speaker 2>two hours out of this if I just did like

0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:23.640
<v Speaker 2>a long pace, if I just spoke like every other

0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:25.120
<v Speaker 2>comic and just took my.

0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:27.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, there's an art to this.

0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:29.720
<v Speaker 2>I gotta slow down and I won't have to work

0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:32.440
<v Speaker 2>as hard to write, Like I can just have two

0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:33.480
<v Speaker 2>hours out of this one.

0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:36.400
<v Speaker 1>So doesn't it feel like stand up feels like such

0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:37.880
<v Speaker 1>a hustle? Right?

0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 5>Like it is you're constantly if you're a stand up

0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:44.560
<v Speaker 5>comedian and that's your main vocation. I mean, obviously we

0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:47.200
<v Speaker 5>all have ancillary things we do, but like, if that's

0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:51.840
<v Speaker 5>your main vocation, it is constant fucking hustle, traveling.

0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 6>I feel hustling and I do hustle.

0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:56.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it is. I mean you're a real stand up

0:18:56.720 --> 0:18:57.199
<v Speaker 1>you get it.

0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.399
<v Speaker 2>Like it's not like something that you picked up once

0:18:59.520 --> 0:19:02.200
<v Speaker 2>you became famous, which a lot of people do.

0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:04.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't think people fully.

0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:07.399
<v Speaker 2>Understand, like especially when you're an artist versus just a

0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:10.199
<v Speaker 2>joke teller, Like when you actually do bleed for this

0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:13.520
<v Speaker 2>and this is something that you that is you're married

0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:16.679
<v Speaker 2>to in a sense, you are the engine. And I

0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:18.480
<v Speaker 2>was actually thinking about that on the way over here,

0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:21.639
<v Speaker 2>Like if I don't write, if I don't push myself

0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:23.640
<v Speaker 2>to work out and to write this, there's no one

0:19:23.680 --> 0:19:26.560
<v Speaker 2>writing it for me. There's no studio calling being like

0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:27.760
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna put a team together.

0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:28.960
<v Speaker 6>What's your next thing?

0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:32.080
<v Speaker 2>If you don't write your books, if you don't create

0:19:32.119 --> 0:19:35.119
<v Speaker 2>these things, especially when you're a funny woman, because no

0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:36.840
<v Speaker 2>one can create the funny for you. People could, of

0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:39.679
<v Speaker 2>course write you some jokes, but like the engine is me.

0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:42.239
<v Speaker 2>And when I take a break, like there's no one

0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:44.760
<v Speaker 2>knocking at the door, like are you done taking your break? Yes,

0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:46.919
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure people would prefer I just take the break forever.

0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's you're completely self reliant.

0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:52.399
<v Speaker 2>There's no like, there's no safety net. Yeah, right, like

0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:53.880
<v Speaker 2>the mortgages are in my name.

0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 5>But that's also kind of a nice thing that. Conversely,

0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:00.880
<v Speaker 5>there's like a flip side of it, which is you're

0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:03.440
<v Speaker 5>not really answering to anybody but yourself.

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:08.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think so, yes, because I can't take those breaks.

0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I can take that vacation.

0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:11.960
<v Speaker 2>But I do feel that we've I think we're coming

0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:13.600
<v Speaker 2>away from it now. But we did get to a

0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:17.520
<v Speaker 2>place in comedy where you were answering to a very

0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:21.440
<v Speaker 2>loud minority on the Internet. And those are the people

0:20:21.480 --> 0:20:24.240
<v Speaker 2>that were canceling people, people that had nothing and were

0:20:24.280 --> 0:20:27.520
<v Speaker 2>angry at you for trying, and those voices got amplified,

0:20:28.240 --> 0:20:30.280
<v Speaker 2>so I was never answering to them, but there was

0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:32.920
<v Speaker 2>like a stutter step, especially as a woman, because we're

0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:36.280
<v Speaker 2>expected to be kinder and empathetic at every turn.

0:20:36.440 --> 0:20:37.879
<v Speaker 6>Meanwhile, guys are like, oh yeah.

0:20:37.760 --> 0:20:40.000
<v Speaker 2>I got this underage hand job and it felt great,

0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:42.680
<v Speaker 2>and uh yeah, maybe women shouldn't be allowed to read,

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:45.199
<v Speaker 2>and it's just like, oh, more of that, please, And

0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:47.080
<v Speaker 2>I get up here. And if I'm like, oh, yeah,

0:20:47.480 --> 0:20:48.120
<v Speaker 2>I chose to have.

0:20:48.080 --> 0:20:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Two kids, it's like, why didn't you have three? Do

0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:51.760
<v Speaker 1>you hate women who don't have kids?

0:20:51.800 --> 0:20:54.919
<v Speaker 2>And you're just like, all right, you're constantly having to

0:20:55.000 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 2>answer for what you have done and haven't done as

0:20:58.960 --> 0:21:01.640
<v Speaker 2>a woman. And I think that we're swinging the other

0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:03.879
<v Speaker 2>way where now you can kind of just make statements

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:04.919
<v Speaker 2>and not have to Well.

0:21:04.800 --> 0:21:08.040
<v Speaker 5>Now that Trump is pregnant, pregnant, now that he's been

0:21:08.040 --> 0:21:10.440
<v Speaker 5>pregnant for quite some time. But now that Trump is president,

0:21:10.560 --> 0:21:14.320
<v Speaker 5>I'm sure all that political correctness everything's out the window.

0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:17.479
<v Speaker 5>Something else you talk about in your stand up is,

0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:21.720
<v Speaker 5>which I think is so great, when men congratulate other

0:21:21.920 --> 0:21:28.440
<v Speaker 5>men for impregnating their wives, Like when Eliza's husband's friend.

0:21:28.359 --> 0:21:30.840
<v Speaker 6>Or stranger stranger usually stranger.

0:21:30.640 --> 0:21:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Right finds out that you're pregnant, especially.

0:21:33.840 --> 0:21:36.119
<v Speaker 2>With a boy, especially, they love to know there's a

0:21:36.119 --> 0:21:39.120
<v Speaker 2>boy in the world, right, but men will There's it's

0:21:39.320 --> 0:21:43.000
<v Speaker 2>the weirdness, the dystopian weirdness of standing there while one

0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:48.200
<v Speaker 2>man congratulates my husband, not me, on the pregnancy. I'm

0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:50.800
<v Speaker 2>like he played the smallest part, like I am doing

0:21:50.840 --> 0:21:53.120
<v Speaker 2>all the work, and it is like congratulations, six seconds,

0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:56.360
<v Speaker 2>well done, and you're just standing there. It's super Handmaid's

0:21:56.400 --> 0:21:58.440
<v Speaker 2>Tale and you're just like, well, I was just glad

0:21:58.480 --> 0:21:58.960
<v Speaker 2>to receive.

0:21:59.800 --> 0:22:03.040
<v Speaker 5>It's it's not their party, and what are they congratulating

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:03.760
<v Speaker 5>each other on.

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:05.200
<v Speaker 1>Seriously, though, when.

0:22:05.000 --> 0:22:07.439
<v Speaker 5>You think about it, it's like, yeah, way to go,

0:22:07.520 --> 0:22:09.160
<v Speaker 5>fuck your wife and get her pregnant.

0:22:09.280 --> 0:22:12.199
<v Speaker 2>Way to go, way to go, because men love to

0:22:12.280 --> 0:22:15.240
<v Speaker 2>know other men are having sex. And like two guys

0:22:15.240 --> 0:22:16.600
<v Speaker 2>at a bar, if a guy leaves with a girl,

0:22:16.840 --> 0:22:18.320
<v Speaker 2>a guy will just high five and be like a

0:22:18.400 --> 0:22:18.920
<v Speaker 2>nice job.

0:22:19.240 --> 0:22:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Women are like, don't go with him.

0:22:20.800 --> 0:22:23.760
<v Speaker 2>That doesn't feel safe, Like we don't want anyone having sex, Yeah,

0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:25.919
<v Speaker 2>we want and men or just like just however, you

0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:28.159
<v Speaker 2>got to get it in and it's it's primal and

0:22:28.200 --> 0:22:28.920
<v Speaker 2>it's the way they are.

0:22:28.960 --> 0:22:31.320
<v Speaker 1>But I want the congratulations as well.

0:22:31.560 --> 0:22:32.760
<v Speaker 5>You did you have sex with a lot of car

0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:34.440
<v Speaker 5>or did you have a lot of boyfriend comics?

0:22:34.800 --> 0:22:37.720
<v Speaker 1>No? Ever, No, none. You never dated a comic?

0:22:37.840 --> 0:22:40.679
<v Speaker 2>I did, but so long ago, and I kind of

0:22:40.720 --> 0:22:43.800
<v Speaker 2>just stayed out of it. But a big reason I did,

0:22:43.880 --> 0:22:45.720
<v Speaker 2>and I think you can probably relate to this. I

0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:49.840
<v Speaker 2>became a headliner so early in my career, so.

0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:52.280
<v Speaker 1>From winning Last Comic Standing, Yes, and so.

0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:54.880
<v Speaker 2>That was like twenty five, and so that's the time

0:22:54.880 --> 0:22:57.359
<v Speaker 2>of your life where you are looking to at the time,

0:22:57.560 --> 0:23:00.720
<v Speaker 2>mostly men who were in positions of power for validation

0:23:00.880 --> 0:23:03.040
<v Speaker 2>to take you on the road. And it's not that

0:23:03.240 --> 0:23:06.520
<v Speaker 2>women always sleep with those guys, but that I didn't

0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:08.720
<v Speaker 2>need that from a man, and I certainly didn't want

0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:11.320
<v Speaker 2>to date a coworker or someone who was less funny

0:23:11.359 --> 0:23:12.280
<v Speaker 2>or successful than me.

0:23:13.000 --> 0:23:15.760
<v Speaker 1>So that pool was pretty much shot.

0:23:15.880 --> 0:23:17.719
<v Speaker 2>And I think men, you know, you try to date

0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:19.399
<v Speaker 2>a male comic who doesn't do as well as you,

0:23:19.440 --> 0:23:22.679
<v Speaker 2>they always get jealous. So I just never it was

0:23:22.720 --> 0:23:23.639
<v Speaker 2>never my dating pool.

0:23:23.800 --> 0:23:24.240
<v Speaker 8>Mm hmmm.

0:23:24.400 --> 0:23:25.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to think if I made out with any

0:23:25.720 --> 0:23:27.320
<v Speaker 1>of them. I don't even think so. I once had

0:23:27.320 --> 0:23:29.320
<v Speaker 1>sex with Tom Roads. Do you know who Tom Roads is?

0:23:29.400 --> 0:23:31.040
<v Speaker 6>I just canceled on a lineup he was on the

0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:31.480
<v Speaker 6>other night.

0:23:31.560 --> 0:23:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh, I was like, did he do something? Was

0:23:34.280 --> 0:23:36.760
<v Speaker 1>he canceled? He's very nice. He's a sweetheart. I once

0:23:36.800 --> 0:23:39.120
<v Speaker 1>had sex looking Yeah he and yeah he is still

0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:40.600
<v Speaker 1>good looking. He came up to me.

0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:42.880
<v Speaker 5>We were at the n Airport Lounge the other day

0:23:43.280 --> 0:23:47.439
<v Speaker 5>and he American and he I was with my cousin

0:23:47.480 --> 0:23:49.520
<v Speaker 5>and he was like, hey, Chelsea just wanted to say hello,

0:23:49.600 --> 0:23:49.880
<v Speaker 5>and I.

0:23:49.840 --> 0:23:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Just thought he was he shook your hand.

0:23:51.160 --> 0:23:52.520
<v Speaker 5>I thought he was a rando. Like I just thought

0:23:52.560 --> 0:23:54.480
<v Speaker 5>he was a fan or something. And I said, oh, hi,

0:23:54.600 --> 0:23:57.199
<v Speaker 5>nice to me. He goes, it's me Tom Rhodes. And

0:23:57.240 --> 0:24:00.720
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, oh hi, Like because I did fuck him

0:24:00.760 --> 0:24:03.320
<v Speaker 5>many many years ago in San Francisco, and it was

0:24:03.359 --> 0:24:05.960
<v Speaker 5>one of those great experiences where you have a kind

0:24:05.960 --> 0:24:08.480
<v Speaker 5>of fun one night stand. Like I never really dated

0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:09.840
<v Speaker 5>that many comics. I mean, I know I did a

0:24:09.920 --> 0:24:12.920
<v Speaker 5>Joe Coy, but that was like PostScript of like comedy

0:24:13.000 --> 0:24:15.639
<v Speaker 5>coming up time. And he's one of those comics I

0:24:15.640 --> 0:24:17.680
<v Speaker 5>had sex with. And when he walked away Molly's like,

0:24:17.680 --> 0:24:19.680
<v Speaker 5>who is that. I'm like, oh, this comic Tom Roads.

0:24:19.680 --> 0:24:21.400
<v Speaker 5>I had sex with him, like many many moons ago.

0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:23.760
<v Speaker 5>And I didn't say moons ago because I don't say that,

0:24:24.080 --> 0:24:26.800
<v Speaker 5>but I remember having a great interlude with him. We

0:24:26.880 --> 0:24:29.399
<v Speaker 5>had sex, We had a fun night in San Francisco.

0:24:29.480 --> 0:24:33.080
<v Speaker 5>We were fucked up drinking and whoever, who knows whatever else,

0:24:33.600 --> 0:24:37.320
<v Speaker 5>And then we tried to reenact it in LA and

0:24:37.400 --> 0:24:39.360
<v Speaker 5>he like a couple months later.

0:24:39.440 --> 0:24:41.359
<v Speaker 6>Just after you were you or is this before your

0:24:41.400 --> 0:24:41.920
<v Speaker 6>shot I.

0:24:41.960 --> 0:24:42.639
<v Speaker 1>Was coming up.

0:24:42.760 --> 0:24:43.200
<v Speaker 8>I wasn't.

0:24:43.280 --> 0:24:44.960
<v Speaker 1>No, I was like, you know, starting out.

0:24:45.000 --> 0:24:47.240
<v Speaker 5>And I think I was opening for him at the

0:24:47.240 --> 0:24:49.639
<v Speaker 5>San Francisco Punchline probably like I was probably the opener.

0:24:49.720 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 5>There was a middle and he was the headliner. And

0:24:52.880 --> 0:24:55.360
<v Speaker 5>so we ended up having you know, a great night

0:24:55.400 --> 0:24:57.760
<v Speaker 5>on our last night of the week. And then we

0:24:57.840 --> 0:25:00.359
<v Speaker 5>tried to recreate it in LA and I met him

0:25:00.359 --> 0:25:02.359
<v Speaker 5>at the comedy store here in LA and it was

0:25:02.520 --> 0:25:05.240
<v Speaker 5>a I think I got my period, Like it was

0:25:05.280 --> 0:25:06.680
<v Speaker 5>one of the worst hookups ever.

0:25:06.800 --> 0:25:08.560
<v Speaker 1>You know what, Sometimes so you just have to leave

0:25:08.600 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 1>something alone, like never speak to me.

0:25:10.840 --> 0:25:12.480
<v Speaker 5>Just because you have one good night with a person

0:25:12.560 --> 0:25:14.760
<v Speaker 5>doesn't mean you should ever see them again. It's like

0:25:15.280 --> 0:25:16.960
<v Speaker 5>when you go to a really good restaurant when you're

0:25:16.960 --> 0:25:19.000
<v Speaker 5>on vacation, don't go back there the next night because

0:25:19.000 --> 0:25:21.320
<v Speaker 5>it was so good the first night, Well, only disappoint you.

0:25:21.400 --> 0:25:22.240
<v Speaker 1>I feel that way.

0:25:22.080 --> 0:25:23.639
<v Speaker 2>With like an entree, I'll be like I want to

0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:25.760
<v Speaker 2>order another one, yes, or like the second. You can

0:25:25.840 --> 0:25:31.240
<v Speaker 2>never have two egg mcmuffins. Like the first yeah so delicious, Yeah, No,

0:25:31.320 --> 0:25:34.480
<v Speaker 2>I love egg mcmuffins, the second one the instant diarrhea.

0:25:34.640 --> 0:25:36.240
<v Speaker 1>What they need to do is make eggman muffins a

0:25:36.280 --> 0:25:38.760
<v Speaker 1>little bit bigger. When we went through COVID, I had

0:25:38.760 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 1>my housekeeper.

0:25:39.480 --> 0:25:41.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, just go stock up on as many egg

0:25:41.520 --> 0:25:43.320
<v Speaker 5>mcmuffins as possible because I'm not gonna be able to

0:25:43.359 --> 0:25:46.080
<v Speaker 5>go to McDonald's and I fucking love eg mcmuffins.

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Stop up stock of freezing them.

0:25:48.200 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, I was freezing them, and they are not

0:25:50.200 --> 0:25:53.920
<v Speaker 5>as good when you freeze them. No, he turns out,

0:25:54.160 --> 0:25:57.040
<v Speaker 5>was like nothing got me off of them quicker than

0:25:57.080 --> 0:25:57.640
<v Speaker 5>freezing them.

0:25:57.640 --> 0:25:59.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, these are not good at all.

0:26:00.000 --> 0:26:01.960
<v Speaker 2>And also get you offer them. Having two on like

0:26:02.000 --> 0:26:08.280
<v Speaker 2>a regional flight in the Northeast, You're like for years

0:26:08.320 --> 0:26:10.399
<v Speaker 2>when I when I was first traveling, you know, you

0:26:10.400 --> 0:26:11.840

0:26:11.840 --> 0:26:15.000
<v Speaker 2>I nevery McDonald's, but this is my my allowance at

0:26:15.000 --> 0:26:15.439
<v Speaker 2>the airport.

0:26:15.480 --> 0:26:16.920
<v Speaker 6>Will have it, And then one time I had two.

0:26:17.280 --> 0:26:20.840
<v Speaker 6>Never again. Yeah, I definitely agree.

0:26:20.520 --> 0:26:26.080
<v Speaker 2>With you about the Sometimes you have these wonderful moments

0:26:26.080 --> 0:26:29.280
<v Speaker 2>like the sexual encounter and it's just and no one's jealous,

0:26:29.320 --> 0:26:31.960
<v Speaker 2>it's not weird, And I feel like women so rarely

0:26:32.000 --> 0:26:33.680
<v Speaker 2>get to have those where you're like, I don't even

0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:36.120
<v Speaker 2>want it again, I don't want to date you like that.

0:26:36.119 --> 0:26:38.520
<v Speaker 2>That hit the spot. And even though I didn't get

0:26:38.520 --> 0:26:41.080
<v Speaker 2>off like that was still great. Thank you so much.

0:26:41.720 --> 0:26:42.480
<v Speaker 1>YE need it again.

0:26:42.520 --> 0:26:45.360
<v Speaker 5>And it's a good lesson to know, Like for our

0:26:45.400 --> 0:26:48.560
<v Speaker 5>young listeners, it's a good lesson to know just because

0:26:48.560 --> 0:26:51.399
<v Speaker 5>you have a great night with somebody doesn't mean that

0:26:51.440 --> 0:26:53.080
<v Speaker 5>you need to have another great night with them.

0:26:53.080 --> 0:26:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Like sometimes it's okay.

0:26:54.359 --> 0:26:56.440
<v Speaker 5>Just to like read a good book and let it go,

0:26:56.720 --> 0:26:58.359
<v Speaker 5>like you don't have to keep rereading it.

0:26:58.600 --> 0:26:58.960
<v Speaker 1>I did.

0:26:59.040 --> 0:27:01.680
<v Speaker 2>I will say, you don't who this person is. There

0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:05.920
<v Speaker 2>was a total power reversal. I was playing somewhere I'm

0:27:05.920 --> 0:27:08.239
<v Speaker 2>not even gonna say the city or anything, and it was.

0:27:08.400 --> 0:27:11.400
<v Speaker 2>It was a younger comic that I had known forever,

0:27:11.440 --> 0:27:15.040
<v Speaker 2>and they opened for me ran like guest sets at

0:27:15.080 --> 0:27:16.960
<v Speaker 2>this in this city and I'd see them as every

0:27:17.000 --> 0:27:20.000
<v Speaker 2>few years. And he came over and he just went

0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:22.159
<v Speaker 2>down on me. I have never shared the story, and

0:27:22.200 --> 0:27:25.440
<v Speaker 2>it felt so powerful because normally it's the other way,

0:27:25.560 --> 0:27:26.679
<v Speaker 2>or you have some weird sex.

0:27:26.920 --> 0:27:28.840
<v Speaker 6>And I just let him and it was great.

0:27:29.000 --> 0:27:30.520
<v Speaker 2>And I had to leave early the next morning, and

0:27:30.560 --> 0:27:31.840
<v Speaker 2>I was like, you can eat whatever you want out

0:27:31.840 --> 0:27:32.359
<v Speaker 2>of the mini bar.

0:27:32.440 --> 0:27:33.640
<v Speaker 1>I gotta go, and I just.

0:27:33.640 --> 0:27:35.840
<v Speaker 5>After you're done eating me out, you can eat whatever

0:27:35.880 --> 0:27:36.880
<v Speaker 5>you want out of the mini bar.

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:39.040
<v Speaker 2>And it was great and I and it was and

0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:42.520
<v Speaker 2>I felt like a real headliner and it just it's

0:27:42.520 --> 0:27:43.439
<v Speaker 2>like a nice memory.

0:27:43.440 --> 0:27:45.600
<v Speaker 6>And I never really talked to this person, but like.

0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that was nice of you to let them do that. Yeah,

0:27:48.760 --> 0:27:50.679
<v Speaker 1>that's what I clean. That's nice to.

0:27:50.720 --> 0:27:52.760
<v Speaker 5>Let somebody go down on you. Like that's the way

0:27:52.760 --> 0:27:54.879
<v Speaker 5>that women should be viewing that. That's a nice thing

0:27:54.920 --> 0:27:58.880
<v Speaker 5>to do for another person. It's not necessarily all about us.

0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:01.560
<v Speaker 5>It's like, well that's awesome, so like you know, friendly.

0:28:01.440 --> 0:28:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you're gonna love this.

0:28:03.760 --> 0:28:05.920
<v Speaker 2>And it felt like powerful and cool and it didn't

0:28:05.960 --> 0:28:08.639
<v Speaker 2>feel like anyone was taking advantage. And I definitely then

0:28:08.680 --> 0:28:10.600
<v Speaker 2>it was weird because like that person brought their family

0:28:10.640 --> 0:28:12.520
<v Speaker 2>to see me, like two years later, I'm like, here's

0:28:12.560 --> 0:28:14.200
<v Speaker 2>some tickets and no problem.

0:28:14.400 --> 0:28:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Like a nice relationship.

0:28:15.920 --> 0:28:19.040
<v Speaker 5>Did you feel like did you feel when that happened

0:28:19.040 --> 0:28:20.679
<v Speaker 5>and they came back around with their family?

0:28:20.720 --> 0:28:24.359
<v Speaker 1>Did you feel any itck at all? Like oh no, keep.

0:28:24.240 --> 0:28:26.240
<v Speaker 2>In touch like over DM and he's like, hey, my family,

0:28:26.520 --> 0:28:27.240
<v Speaker 2>can I get tickets?

0:28:27.280 --> 0:28:28.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, Andy's a fan.

0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Great, of course you can have tickets with your sweet

0:28:31.040 --> 0:28:32.800
<v Speaker 2>family also has to go down.

0:28:33.040 --> 0:28:35.639
<v Speaker 5>How did you meet your How did every family member

0:28:35.680 --> 0:28:36.680
<v Speaker 5>needs to go down on you?

0:28:36.720 --> 0:28:37.920
<v Speaker 1>How did you meet your husband?

0:28:38.440 --> 0:28:40.640
<v Speaker 6>That was him?

0:28:41.040 --> 0:28:44.640
<v Speaker 1>I met him on Riya. Oh really Ya's success store.

0:28:44.640 --> 0:28:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Have you've been of course?

0:28:46.320 --> 0:28:49.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, lots of different sex on RYA different like countries.

0:28:49.920 --> 0:28:51.680
<v Speaker 5>I find RYA to'd be great for like when you're

0:28:51.680 --> 0:28:53.880
<v Speaker 5>in the UK or New York or like it's a

0:28:53.960 --> 0:28:56.520
<v Speaker 5>nice hotspot and it and it and it gives you

0:28:56.560 --> 0:28:59.160
<v Speaker 5>a I mean now it's opened up a little bit

0:28:59.200 --> 0:29:02.000
<v Speaker 5>more and expanded, but when I was using it a lot,

0:29:02.120 --> 0:29:04.720
<v Speaker 5>it gives you a more what is the word that

0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:09.560
<v Speaker 5>I'm thinking of, like continental more continental buffet. It gives

0:29:09.600 --> 0:29:12.600
<v Speaker 5>you more of a grouping of people that are actually

0:29:13.080 --> 0:29:15.520
<v Speaker 5>a little bit more rightly elevated. Yeah, than that's what

0:29:15.520 --> 0:29:18.040
<v Speaker 5>we're going to find on like Twitter, I mean not Twitter, sorry,

0:29:18.080 --> 0:29:20.760
<v Speaker 5>Tinder or like hinge or whatever. It's just like a

0:29:20.800 --> 0:29:22.800
<v Speaker 5>little bit more of a guarantee that we're not to

0:29:22.920 --> 0:29:23.840
<v Speaker 5>find curated.

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:25.080
<v Speaker 1>That was the word I was thinking about.

0:29:26.320 --> 0:29:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, people will grimace at well bristle at that.

0:29:29.080 --> 0:29:31.320
<v Speaker 2>But like if you have a public profile, like if

0:29:31.320 --> 0:29:34.880
<v Speaker 2>you are a celebrity at all, you can't open yourself

0:29:34.960 --> 0:29:37.320
<v Speaker 2>up to just going out with whomever. And so for

0:29:37.360 --> 0:29:40.000
<v Speaker 2>the longest time, for me, like I was never so

0:29:40.200 --> 0:29:42.240
<v Speaker 2>like I wasn't famous enough that I was like at

0:29:42.320 --> 0:29:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Denzel's Denzel, why.

0:29:44.640 --> 0:29:47.400
<v Speaker 6>Would we find Denzel Washington?

0:29:47.640 --> 0:29:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god?

0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:52.200
<v Speaker 2>Or like I just wasn't at famous people's houses. But

0:29:52.320 --> 0:29:55.160
<v Speaker 2>I was famous enough that I couldn't just pick up

0:29:55.200 --> 0:29:59.400
<v Speaker 2>a random person. So you would rely on like friend recommendations,

0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:01.959
<v Speaker 2>you know, idea did someone I knew in college, and

0:30:02.000 --> 0:30:04.440
<v Speaker 2>you just would find these people sort of natively. And

0:30:04.480 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 2>then Riot came along, and so it wasn't necessarily other celebrities,

0:30:08.640 --> 0:30:10.920
<v Speaker 2>but it was like verified, like, oh, I'm an artist too,

0:30:11.080 --> 0:30:11.840
<v Speaker 2>Like I get it.

0:30:12.080 --> 0:30:13.960
<v Speaker 1>So you don't leave your cause it's a vulnerable thing

0:30:14.280 --> 0:30:15.160
<v Speaker 1>to go out with someone.

0:30:15.520 --> 0:30:18.240
<v Speaker 5>Well of course, of course, especially when you know, yeah,

0:30:18.480 --> 0:30:21.200
<v Speaker 5>especially when you are a celebrity and they know who

0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:24.200
<v Speaker 5>you are and you're like putting yourself out there. I'm

0:30:24.280 --> 0:30:25.960
<v Speaker 5>of the ilk that you just let go of all

0:30:26.000 --> 0:30:28.040
<v Speaker 5>of that, Like, who gives a fuck? You know you're

0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:31.120
<v Speaker 5>gonna walk around being this person in your real life regardless.

0:30:31.360 --> 0:30:34.280
<v Speaker 5>So when people who are friends of mine are like,

0:30:34.280 --> 0:30:36.320
<v Speaker 5>how could you go on those sites, I'm like easily,

0:30:36.640 --> 0:30:37.880
<v Speaker 5>you know, I'm trying to get some action.

0:30:38.080 --> 0:30:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Right also at this like who cares? Like I don't

0:30:40.840 --> 0:30:42.560
<v Speaker 1>care if they know that I'm on this site. That

0:30:42.600 --> 0:30:43.360
<v Speaker 1>doesn't bother me.

0:30:43.480 --> 0:30:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Right, especially not now, I think like the stigma of

0:30:45.840 --> 0:30:48.440
<v Speaker 2>online dating is completely gone. Everybody does it. It makes a

0:30:48.480 --> 0:30:50.320
<v Speaker 2>lot of sense. You can't go out every single night,

0:30:50.600 --> 0:30:53.120
<v Speaker 2>but I do think you know, when you're younger, you're

0:30:53.160 --> 0:30:54.720
<v Speaker 2>just trying to like sort it out, and you don't

0:30:54.760 --> 0:30:57.520
<v Speaker 2>know what someone else's intention is right when they go

0:30:57.560 --> 0:30:59.080
<v Speaker 2>and then you bring them to your house or you

0:30:59.080 --> 0:31:01.160
<v Speaker 2>go to like it's just weird. But I did meet him.

0:31:01.440 --> 0:31:03.480
<v Speaker 2>He was not a celebrity, and I was like, who

0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:05.880
<v Speaker 2>let you in here? But he was just so funny

0:31:06.240 --> 0:31:07.520
<v Speaker 2>and so easy to talk to.

0:31:08.240 --> 0:31:09.640
<v Speaker 1>And then that was that. Wow.

0:31:09.680 --> 0:31:10.840
<v Speaker 6>I was his first Riot date.

0:31:10.880 --> 0:31:13.000
<v Speaker 2>He was like, I don't know my fifth or something like,

0:31:13.040 --> 0:31:15.160
<v Speaker 2>I hadn't been on that long and it just worked.

0:31:15.280 --> 0:31:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:31:15.600 --> 0:31:18.080
<v Speaker 2>He was so lovely and that was like day one

0:31:18.080 --> 0:31:19.960
<v Speaker 2>and like that was it. And so what kind of

0:31:20.080 --> 0:31:20.920
<v Speaker 2>artist is he?

0:31:20.920 --> 0:31:21.560
<v Speaker 1>He's a chef.

0:31:21.840 --> 0:31:24.000
<v Speaker 6>Oh, but he's a I should have brought you a book.

0:31:24.000 --> 0:31:27.960
<v Speaker 2>He's a cookbook author and chef and and a writer

0:31:28.040 --> 0:31:30.080
<v Speaker 2>and so he writes a lot of you know, articles,

0:31:30.080 --> 0:31:30.520
<v Speaker 2>free length.

0:31:30.560 --> 0:31:32.160
<v Speaker 6>But he is a chef and cookbook author.

0:31:32.280 --> 0:31:33.440
<v Speaker 1>That's cool. It was cool.

0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:35.480
<v Speaker 2>And when I met him, he was he had opened

0:31:35.600 --> 0:31:37.840
<v Speaker 2>you ever are you a regular eater or do you

0:31:37.880 --> 0:31:39.960
<v Speaker 2>eat not eat meat or anything? No, I'm a regular

0:31:40.080 --> 0:31:43.360
<v Speaker 2>regular person. He was the opening chef for Bloodsoe's Barbecue

0:31:43.360 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 2>on Libreak, which is like an LA staple. And he

0:31:47.240 --> 0:31:50.080
<v Speaker 2>has his cookbooks. He writes cookbooks. He has one coming out.

0:31:50.080 --> 0:31:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Do you ever eat at found Oyster? You're very far

0:31:52.240 --> 0:31:53.920
<v Speaker 2>west over here, so I don't know, I know but

0:31:53.960 --> 0:31:56.200
<v Speaker 2>I've heard of found Oyster. I love oysters. So Ari

<v Speaker 2>Culiner he wrote Ari's book and that comes out called

0:31:58.640 --> 0:32:00.160
<v Speaker 2>How to Cook the Finest Things in the Sea. So

0:32:00.200 --> 0:32:02.160
<v Speaker 2>he's the guy that he's got James Beard's Award. Like,

0:32:02.200 --> 0:32:03.600
<v Speaker 2>he's the guy you go to if you're like, I

0:32:03.600 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 2>want to do a cookbook. He will capture your voice

0:32:05.760 --> 0:32:07.680
<v Speaker 2>and write that way with you and recipe test.

0:32:07.760 --> 0:32:11.080
<v Speaker 5>That's such a nice refreshing vocation. It's so it's great

0:32:11.360 --> 0:32:12.680
<v Speaker 5>in this town especially.

0:32:12.880 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's not like a fake chef or a photographer

0:32:15.880 --> 0:32:16.640
<v Speaker 2>or a producer.

0:32:16.960 --> 0:32:19.480
<v Speaker 5>I mean a photographers at least, can you know, take photographs,

0:32:19.480 --> 0:32:22.320
<v Speaker 5>but producers is a little bit of a gray area,

0:32:22.480 --> 0:32:23.200
<v Speaker 5>as we all know.

0:32:23.520 --> 0:32:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Okay, on that notework.

0:32:25.920 --> 0:32:27.520

0:32:42.200 --> 0:32:44.440
<v Speaker 1>is it a blake Lively calling in for advice? She

0:32:44.440 --> 0:32:46.040
<v Speaker 1>calls in one more time. I swear to god.

0:32:46.120 --> 0:32:47.600
<v Speaker 6>She's like, I'm your neighbor, Chelsea.

0:32:48.320 --> 0:32:50.880
<v Speaker 1>My god, Well, our first Blake of the day.

0:32:51.240 --> 0:32:54.160
<v Speaker 3>He says, Dear Chelsea, I'm a thirty one year old

0:32:54.160 --> 0:32:57.240
<v Speaker 3>trans man who lives in northern Ontario, Canada. I grew

0:32:57.320 --> 0:32:59.480
<v Speaker 3>up very liberal, where being who you are was not

0:32:59.520 --> 0:33:02.360
<v Speaker 3>a crime shameful. And now I'm married and I've been

0:33:02.440 --> 0:33:04.920
<v Speaker 3>with my wife for almost six years now. She comes

0:33:04.920 --> 0:33:07.440
<v Speaker 3>from a very conservative Christian home and her family took

0:33:07.440 --> 0:33:09.640
<v Speaker 3>a while to warm up to me. They never came

0:33:09.680 --> 0:33:11.960
<v Speaker 3>to our wedding because it's a sin quote unquote and

0:33:12.040 --> 0:33:14.800
<v Speaker 3>they don't agree with our lifestyle. They still aren't on

0:33:14.840 --> 0:33:16.960
<v Speaker 3>board with us to this day, but then they claim

0:33:17.040 --> 0:33:18.800
<v Speaker 3>to love us and all of that fun stuff.

0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:19.520
<v Speaker 1>People say.

0:33:19.840 --> 0:33:22.480
<v Speaker 3>Should I continue to be the bigger person and continue

0:33:22.520 --> 0:33:24.760
<v Speaker 3>to just visit them like they haven't done anything wrong?

0:33:24.880 --> 0:33:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what to do. Hi, Hi Blake, Hi Blake.

0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:32.160
<v Speaker 2>I can give you the carrot at the bottom next

0:33:32.160 --> 0:33:33.640
<v Speaker 2>to the microphone.

0:33:34.440 --> 0:33:34.720
<v Speaker 9>Got it?

0:33:34.920 --> 0:33:35.640
<v Speaker 8>Yeah?

0:33:36.480 --> 0:33:40.400
<v Speaker 5>Hi, that's one millennia helping another, just doing what I can.

0:33:40.640 --> 0:33:42.680
<v Speaker 1>Hi, Hi Blake Lively, how are you?

0:33:43.320 --> 0:33:43.800
<v Speaker 7>I'm good?

0:33:43.840 --> 0:33:44.160
<v Speaker 8>Thank you?

0:33:44.200 --> 0:33:45.160
<v Speaker 7>How are you guys today?

0:33:45.400 --> 0:33:46.800
<v Speaker 1>We're so tired of hearing about you.

0:33:48.840 --> 0:33:52.640
<v Speaker 5>Okay, so your wife's parents they know you're trans, correct

0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:54.000
<v Speaker 5>and that's the big issue.

0:33:54.480 --> 0:33:58.320
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, when her and her ex husband's blake, he got

0:33:58.360 --> 0:34:02.680
<v Speaker 7>mad and he went and told her family about me.

0:34:03.400 --> 0:34:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't matter. Were you guys having an affair?

0:34:05.880 --> 0:34:06.000
<v Speaker 8>No?

0:34:06.840 --> 0:34:10.520
<v Speaker 1>So, how what is he why? I'm confused? Why was

0:34:10.520 --> 0:34:12.799
<v Speaker 1>he even in the picture? Just a jealous ex?

0:34:13.360 --> 0:34:14.000
<v Speaker 8>Yeah?

0:34:14.000 --> 0:34:15.759
<v Speaker 5>But if you weren't in the picture, then how did

0:34:15.800 --> 0:34:17.399
<v Speaker 5>he know about her? How do you already know about

0:34:17.400 --> 0:34:18.280
<v Speaker 5>this story before.

0:34:18.080 --> 0:34:18.839
<v Speaker 1>I started dating?

0:34:18.840 --> 0:34:20.840
<v Speaker 2>And then he was like, well, I'm still bitter about this.

0:34:20.960 --> 0:34:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh so he because I'm in Ontario with nothing else

0:34:23.600 --> 0:34:26.279
<v Speaker 2>to do, I know what I'll do. I'll fuck up

0:34:26.280 --> 0:34:29.759
<v Speaker 2>her life because she left me. It didn't work. I

0:34:29.760 --> 0:34:30.680
<v Speaker 2>had a micro penis.

0:34:31.160 --> 0:34:34.239
<v Speaker 5>And are they they're nice to you other than what

0:34:34.320 --> 0:34:37.480
<v Speaker 5>you're talking about, Like, is it civil when you see them?

0:34:37.960 --> 0:34:39.320
<v Speaker 8>Yes, it is civil.

0:34:39.560 --> 0:34:42.759
<v Speaker 7>It's just the fact that I know the things that

0:34:42.920 --> 0:34:47.480
<v Speaker 7>have been said, And I guess that's just the bitter

0:34:47.640 --> 0:34:51.520
<v Speaker 7>aspect of it, where it's like you've never apologized. But

0:34:51.680 --> 0:34:54.840
<v Speaker 7>it's also I shouldn't have to carry that, I guess.

0:34:55.000 --> 0:34:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:34:56.080 --> 0:34:59.040
<v Speaker 5>No, I mean I always have a different kind of

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:02.319
<v Speaker 5>feeling about this day to day. But I just feel like,

0:35:03.040 --> 0:35:05.200
<v Speaker 5>as long as you can be civil with each other.

0:35:05.719 --> 0:35:08.920
<v Speaker 5>It's kind of an opportunity to demonstrate love and kindness.

0:35:08.960 --> 0:35:10.520
<v Speaker 1>That's exactly right, and to just.

0:35:10.560 --> 0:35:14.200
<v Speaker 5>Be like this great person in their lives and show

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:17.279
<v Speaker 5>all your great qualities and not judge them for their ignorance.

0:35:17.760 --> 0:35:19.000
<v Speaker 1>That's right, you know what I mean?

0:35:19.120 --> 0:35:21.799
<v Speaker 5>Because I think you can get a lot farther by

0:35:22.160 --> 0:35:25.040
<v Speaker 5>that with that attitude, I am always like, fuck off,

0:35:25.080 --> 0:35:25.719
<v Speaker 5>shut it down.

0:35:25.800 --> 0:35:27.520
<v Speaker 1>If someone is an asshole, then fire.

0:35:27.640 --> 0:35:30.160
<v Speaker 5>But if they're not being abusive to you, if they're

0:35:30.200 --> 0:35:33.319
<v Speaker 5>not being nasty to you to your face anyway, who

0:35:33.400 --> 0:35:35.080
<v Speaker 5>cares what they say behind your back? That's really not

0:35:35.120 --> 0:35:36.600
<v Speaker 5>your business anyway, you know what I mean.

0:35:37.080 --> 0:35:40.040
<v Speaker 2>That's on them, I think because it's easy for us

0:35:40.080 --> 0:35:42.359
<v Speaker 2>as like heterosexual people to be like whatever, big deal,

0:35:42.400 --> 0:35:45.799
<v Speaker 2>But like you also carry whatever comes along with being

0:35:45.920 --> 0:35:47.920
<v Speaker 2>trans and what you think the world thinks of that

0:35:47.960 --> 0:35:50.600
<v Speaker 2>and the way that you either are treated or perceive

0:35:50.680 --> 0:35:52.520
<v Speaker 2>that you're being treated like, there's a weight to that.

0:35:52.600 --> 0:35:54.640
<v Speaker 6>If someone says anything to you, you're always.

0:35:54.360 --> 0:35:56.080
<v Speaker 2>Going to be wondering, is it because I'm trans in

0:35:56.120 --> 0:35:57.760
<v Speaker 2>the way that we're like, is it because I'm a woman?

0:35:58.080 --> 0:35:59.759
<v Speaker 2>Is it because of my color? Is it because of

0:35:59.800 --> 0:36:02.640
<v Speaker 2>this whatever? We all have that, and I think you're

0:36:02.680 --> 0:36:06.520
<v Speaker 2>absolutely right. It's your chance to show them all the

0:36:06.640 --> 0:36:11.480
<v Speaker 2>kindness and love that the queer, trans whatever community always preaches.

0:36:11.840 --> 0:36:15.480
<v Speaker 2>And it definitely hurts, it hurts your feelings, but you

0:36:15.520 --> 0:36:18.879
<v Speaker 2>want them to feel so bad that they weren't the kind,

0:36:18.920 --> 0:36:22.400
<v Speaker 2>loving Christians that they talk about. When you leave, you

0:36:22.480 --> 0:36:24.440
<v Speaker 2>want to be and you don't have to be fake,

0:36:24.800 --> 0:36:28.520
<v Speaker 2>but you don't let them take away who you actually are.

0:36:28.920 --> 0:36:31.239
<v Speaker 2>Don't let them decide for you that you are all

0:36:31.280 --> 0:36:34.080
<v Speaker 2>the awful things that they've decided you are or trans

0:36:34.120 --> 0:36:37.080
<v Speaker 2>people are, and you just keep demonstrating it. And if

0:36:37.120 --> 0:36:38.799
<v Speaker 2>they want to be man enough to say it to you,

0:36:39.120 --> 0:36:41.239
<v Speaker 2>then you can have that conversation. But I think a

0:36:41.320 --> 0:36:44.240
<v Speaker 2>lot of times we come at people with very charged

0:36:44.520 --> 0:36:47.000
<v Speaker 2>with anger when they have an idea about who we are,

0:36:47.280 --> 0:36:50.520
<v Speaker 2>and then we end up proving that. And this is

0:36:50.560 --> 0:36:53.840
<v Speaker 2>a chance to sort of deflate some of that ignorance.

0:36:54.040 --> 0:36:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Like prove them wrong.

0:36:54.920 --> 0:36:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Basically, Yeah, I mean, what do they think they just

0:36:57.440 --> 0:36:59.480
<v Speaker 2>the knock is that you used to be a woman

0:37:00.080 --> 0:37:02.960
<v Speaker 2>with their daughter. That's the knock. It's not that you're

0:37:03.000 --> 0:37:06.239
<v Speaker 2>a bad person. They can and they can't handle that.

0:37:06.320 --> 0:37:09.279
<v Speaker 2>It is a foreign concept, like gay we've all sort

0:37:09.280 --> 0:37:11.279
<v Speaker 2>of wrapped our minds around, but it is if you

0:37:11.320 --> 0:37:13.200
<v Speaker 2>consider where they're coming from, Like, that's a lot to

0:37:13.280 --> 0:37:16.319
<v Speaker 2>take on. You are probably the only trans person they know.

0:37:16.760 --> 0:37:20.040
<v Speaker 1>I was, yeah, oh is there another? Is your wife? Now? Trans?

0:37:21.800 --> 0:37:27.320
<v Speaker 7>What a plot twist? No, it's just this small community

0:37:27.440 --> 0:37:30.759
<v Speaker 7>that they live in. There's others that have come out

0:37:30.800 --> 0:37:33.200
<v Speaker 7>of the woodworks. I guess you could say, since you know,

0:37:33.200 --> 0:37:36.680
<v Speaker 7>if we live in the woodworks. But yeah, I'm still

0:37:36.680 --> 0:37:39.719
<v Speaker 7>like the only one they personally know though, this.

0:37:39.680 --> 0:37:40.879
<v Speaker 1>Is the only one sucking their daughter.

0:37:40.960 --> 0:37:43.200
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that's right, so that you know, of you, I

0:37:43.719 --> 0:37:44.280
<v Speaker 6>sure hope.

0:37:44.320 --> 0:37:47.799
<v Speaker 2>So this is your chance for them to be like,

0:37:48.000 --> 0:37:50.880
<v Speaker 2>I know my son in law's trans and he's great. Yes,

0:37:50.920 --> 0:37:52.839
<v Speaker 2>we token is we do with everyone. We're like, well,

0:37:52.880 --> 0:37:54.880
<v Speaker 2>I've got a Filipino friend. She seems cool, so they

0:37:54.920 --> 0:37:56.799
<v Speaker 2>all must be. I've got a Jewish friend and they

0:37:56.800 --> 0:37:59.000
<v Speaker 2>don't seem awful. They all must be. This is your

0:37:59.080 --> 0:38:02.000
<v Speaker 2>chance to like show up and be like, look out, fuckings,

0:38:02.040 --> 0:38:02.479
<v Speaker 2>don't worry.

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and just right like rise above that. You know

0:38:05.880 --> 0:38:08.400
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. Their problems are not your problems.

0:38:08.600 --> 0:38:12.000
<v Speaker 5>You should just It's like almost like anything, any feelings

0:38:12.080 --> 0:38:15.480
<v Speaker 5>or opinions they have about you is just not even part.

0:38:15.280 --> 0:38:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Of who you are, has nothing to do with if

0:38:17.000 --> 0:38:18.000
<v Speaker 1>you want to move through the.

0:38:17.960 --> 0:38:21.200
<v Speaker 5>World and move through your relationship with them just as

0:38:21.280 --> 0:38:23.840
<v Speaker 5>like a nice beacon of light, as like a joyful

0:38:23.920 --> 0:38:26.319
<v Speaker 5>reprieve from the rest of their life, so that they're

0:38:26.400 --> 0:38:30.399
<v Speaker 5>slowly understanding that you're just like anybody else, that you're

0:38:30.440 --> 0:38:33.640
<v Speaker 5>a real person with real feelings and real emotions and

0:38:34.040 --> 0:38:37.320
<v Speaker 5>without an agenda, you know what I mean. But really

0:38:37.400 --> 0:38:39.600
<v Speaker 5>don't get stuck on what they're saying or what their

0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:43.080
<v Speaker 5>attitudes are, as long as it's not hurtful or sorry

0:38:43.120 --> 0:38:45.520
<v Speaker 5>not maybe it's hurtful, of course, but you know, as

0:38:45.560 --> 0:38:49.200
<v Speaker 5>long as it's not abusive or they're treating you in

0:38:49.239 --> 0:38:52.879
<v Speaker 5>an unkind way, just keep pushing through, because I think

0:38:52.880 --> 0:38:56.920
<v Speaker 5>you should carry with you like you're speaking for lots.

0:38:56.640 --> 0:38:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Of trans people.

0:38:57.600 --> 0:39:01.799
<v Speaker 5>You know, your interactions with them or emblematic of all

0:39:01.800 --> 0:39:02.719
<v Speaker 5>the trans people.

0:39:02.520 --> 0:39:06.000
<v Speaker 1>In your community. So unfortunately, keep that in mind.

0:39:06.000 --> 0:39:08.520
<v Speaker 5>But I find that rather than having that be some

0:39:08.600 --> 0:39:10.440
<v Speaker 5>sort of onus, though it kind of gives you a

0:39:10.480 --> 0:39:11.240
<v Speaker 5>sense of purpose.

0:39:12.200 --> 0:39:13.600
<v Speaker 2>It's but by the way, you don't have to do

0:39:13.640 --> 0:39:16.080
<v Speaker 2>anything extra. But you're their son in law. You know

0:39:16.080 --> 0:39:17.919
<v Speaker 2>what son in laws do. They call up they're like, hey,

0:39:18.040 --> 0:39:20.160
<v Speaker 2>you need to borrow a ladder. Like you're their son

0:39:20.200 --> 0:39:22.320
<v Speaker 2>in law. So like, and the good news is you

0:39:22.360 --> 0:39:24.040
<v Speaker 2>don't have to worry about anything because like, men don't

0:39:24.040 --> 0:39:24.600
<v Speaker 2>do anything.

0:39:24.880 --> 0:39:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Do you have a ladder?

0:39:26.280 --> 0:39:27.320
<v Speaker 8>I have a step ladder.

0:39:28.000 --> 0:39:30.280
<v Speaker 1>No, you're a brown man, Go get you a ladder.

0:39:30.320 --> 0:39:32.040
<v Speaker 1>I think you need to get a real ladder.

0:39:32.640 --> 0:39:35.000
<v Speaker 8>I just so I don't need ladder.

0:39:35.280 --> 0:39:37.480
<v Speaker 5>Okay, well, then hire someone to bring them a ladder.

0:39:37.520 --> 0:39:39.000
<v Speaker 5>I think that's what Eliza's saying.

0:39:39.200 --> 0:39:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Or next time you go to the house, start knocking

0:39:40.920 --> 0:39:43.120
<v Speaker 2>on studs and be like, this is a solid wall.

0:39:43.719 --> 0:39:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Just start trying to fix things in their house, Be like,

0:39:45.920 --> 0:39:49.960
<v Speaker 2>can we readjust this door, bring a level, just start

0:39:50.120 --> 0:39:53.560
<v Speaker 2>seeing if everything's just start critiquing all the masculine stuff.

0:39:53.600 --> 0:39:55.160
<v Speaker 3>And then you take the stud finder and you put

0:39:55.160 --> 0:39:57.280
<v Speaker 3>it to your own chest and you're like, found.

0:39:56.960 --> 0:39:59.960
<v Speaker 7>Well that's literally what I can do.

0:40:00.400 --> 0:40:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Well, I mean that's one step in the right direction.

0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:07.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, are you guys, I have a question for you.

0:40:07.320 --> 0:40:09.240
<v Speaker 5>Are you guys affectionate in front of her family?

0:40:09.560 --> 0:40:10.600
<v Speaker 8>We don't hide it.

0:40:10.719 --> 0:40:13.960
<v Speaker 7>We don't like make it something that we try to

0:40:14.040 --> 0:40:16.719
<v Speaker 7>hide or flaunt it and like we're not trying to

0:40:16.760 --> 0:40:18.160
<v Speaker 7>do something that's not us.

0:40:18.360 --> 0:40:20.600
<v Speaker 6>At the same time, this holiday season, it's time to

0:40:20.640 --> 0:40:21.160
<v Speaker 6>amp it up.

0:40:21.680 --> 0:40:23.919
<v Speaker 1>And the holidays are right around the corner because we're

0:40:23.960 --> 0:40:24.480

0:40:24.600 --> 0:40:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so time to prepare a lot of caressing, a

0:40:30.440 --> 0:40:31.400
<v Speaker 2>lot of neck kissing.

<v Speaker 1>Just let him know on the ladder. You want to

0:40:34.560 --> 0:40:36.280
<v Speaker 1>do all of this on the ladder.

0:40:36.440 --> 0:40:38.040
<v Speaker 7>While critiquing everything.

0:40:37.760 --> 0:40:39.759
<v Speaker 1>Right, yes, yeah, just be a man.

0:40:40.360 --> 0:40:42.520
<v Speaker 5>But you know what we're saying, right, You got what

0:40:42.560 --> 0:40:43.280
<v Speaker 5>we're saying, Blake.

0:40:43.719 --> 0:40:44.560
<v Speaker 8>With all of.

0:40:44.480 --> 0:40:46.839
<v Speaker 7>The toxic masculine going around on the news right now,

0:40:46.880 --> 0:40:48.319
<v Speaker 7>I think I can convey.

0:40:48.080 --> 0:40:48.480
<v Speaker 5>Some of that.

0:40:49.080 --> 0:40:53.839

<v Speaker 1>Ontario great again.

0:40:55.800 --> 0:40:59.080
<v Speaker 7>You know what, Canada might be the best state if

0:40:59.080 --> 0:40:59.640
<v Speaker 7>it happens.

0:40:59.719 --> 0:41:02.640
<v Speaker 6>Guys, welcome, Welcome number fifty one.

0:41:03.440 --> 0:41:03.919
<v Speaker 8>Don't worry.

0:41:04.000 --> 0:41:06.239
<v Speaker 7>Chelsea already has a place here, so it's not even

0:41:06.280 --> 0:41:07.320
<v Speaker 7>like she really has to do.

0:41:07.960 --> 0:41:10.399
<v Speaker 5>It's not like I'm even emmigrating. I'm just like going

0:41:10.440 --> 0:41:13.279
<v Speaker 5>from the Canadian passport. I don't I have a house

0:41:13.320 --> 0:41:15.640
<v Speaker 5>in Whistler, Canada, but I don't have a pass if.

0:41:15.560 --> 0:41:16.200
<v Speaker 1>She won't need one.

0:41:16.520 --> 0:41:18.480
<v Speaker 5>But I am marry yeah if I have to, but

0:41:18.520 --> 0:41:20.040
<v Speaker 5>I don't need to marry a Canadian.

0:41:20.239 --> 0:41:20.279
<v Speaker 7>No.

0:41:20.480 --> 0:41:20.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:41:20.960 --> 0:41:23.040
<v Speaker 5>Everyone was always like before the election was like, oh,

0:41:23.040 --> 0:41:24.799
<v Speaker 5>you could just move to Canada. I'm like, I have

0:41:24.880 --> 0:41:28.560
<v Speaker 5>a feeling he probably thinks he's getting to invade Canada

0:41:28.600 --> 0:41:29.640
<v Speaker 5>and take Canada over.

0:41:29.760 --> 0:41:31.840
<v Speaker 1>Like Canada is not far enough away.

0:41:32.480 --> 0:41:35.480
<v Speaker 7>I don't think he can get that can up north.

0:41:36.160 --> 0:41:36.759
<v Speaker 6>You get it here.

0:41:36.800 --> 0:41:38.040
<v Speaker 1>It's a little tan, it's from a.

0:41:38.040 --> 0:41:39.040
<v Speaker 8>Bottle, That's what I mean.

0:41:39.520 --> 0:41:41.040
<v Speaker 7>But we don't sell it here, so.

0:41:41.000 --> 0:41:41.359
<v Speaker 8>I don't know.

0:41:41.400 --> 0:41:43.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, especially if it's American maid, you won't be RP

0:41:43.880 --> 0:41:44.600
<v Speaker 2>Tito's Vodko.

0:41:45.320 --> 0:41:48.640
<v Speaker 5>Sorry about that anyway, Blake, good luck with everything.

0:41:48.719 --> 0:41:50.160
<v Speaker 8>Congrats, thank you so much.

0:41:50.480 --> 0:41:51.799
<v Speaker 1>Congrats on your relationship.

0:41:51.840 --> 0:41:54.160
<v Speaker 5>And I think you're gonna I think you're actually gonna

0:41:54.200 --> 0:41:56.600
<v Speaker 5>be a great example for your in laws and that

0:41:56.640 --> 0:42:01.239
<v Speaker 5>whole family to you know, open minds and expand horizons.

0:42:01.760 --> 0:42:03.360
<v Speaker 8>Well, thank you. I appreciate everything.

0:42:03.400 --> 0:42:07.480
<v Speaker 5>Guys. Okay, thanks Mike. It was just taking a bite

0:42:07.520 --> 0:42:09.000
<v Speaker 5>of that. It was like calling my name, all.

0:42:09.040 --> 0:42:11.479
<v Speaker 1>Right, onto our next Blake. Oh, this is Blake.

0:42:11.560 --> 0:42:15.200
<v Speaker 3>Back to back black, back to back Blakes. So our

0:42:15.520 --> 0:42:19.200
<v Speaker 3>next Blake is twenty eight. He's here in La. He says,

0:42:19.200 --> 0:42:22.080
<v Speaker 3>Dear Chelsea, I need some big sister energy, and who

0:42:22.120 --> 0:42:25.759
<v Speaker 3>better than you. After over a decade of producing unscripted

0:42:25.800 --> 0:42:30.600
<v Speaker 3>content spanning editorial TV commercials, presidential campaigns, and the wild

0:42:30.600 --> 0:42:33.719
<v Speaker 3>West of social media, I'm ready for a change. I've

0:42:33.719 --> 0:42:37.040
<v Speaker 3>worked for iconic brands across the Conde Nash portfolio, produced

0:42:37.040 --> 0:42:40.719
<v Speaker 3>for Hillary Clinton and Stacy Abrams, and even helped Applebee's

0:42:40.840 --> 0:42:42.800
<v Speaker 3>snag a can Lions.

0:42:42.440 --> 0:42:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Fancas LinkedIn bio. Seriously, I mean, you know to backbar.

0:42:48.360 --> 0:42:51.080
<v Speaker 3>But despite all this, I've hit a wall of unfulfillment.

0:42:51.680 --> 0:42:54.320
<v Speaker 3>After layoff in NYC, I moved back to LA and

0:42:54.400 --> 0:42:57.720
<v Speaker 3>landed a job in programming management at a live streaming giant.

0:42:58.200 --> 0:43:00.520
<v Speaker 3>While I'm grateful, I've realized I want to return to

0:43:00.560 --> 0:43:05.440
<v Speaker 3>my first love, producing, specifically in scripted TV. Qua Mentor's advice,

0:43:05.560 --> 0:43:08.080
<v Speaker 3>if you can't find the project, create it. So I

0:43:08.080 --> 0:43:11.040
<v Speaker 3>started writing work that began as a cathartic way to

0:43:11.080 --> 0:43:13.640
<v Speaker 3>process a breakup. Yes, I Taylor swifted the shit out

0:43:13.640 --> 0:43:17.880
<v Speaker 3>of it and reflect on chaotic work situationships. Imagine a

0:43:17.920 --> 0:43:22.120
<v Speaker 3>flirtatious gay CEO in advertising harder than it sounds, has

0:43:22.160 --> 0:43:25.520
<v Speaker 3>turned into something I'm genuinely proud of. I've drafted two stories,

0:43:25.640 --> 0:43:28.640
<v Speaker 3>one rooted in rogate emotions, the other dripping in jewey

0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:31.200
<v Speaker 3>high camp, and I've shocked myself by how much I

0:43:31.280 --> 0:43:32.560
<v Speaker 3>love this creative outlet.

0:43:33.120 --> 0:43:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Here's where I need your advice.

0:43:34.840 --> 0:43:37.600
<v Speaker 3>I feel this poll to pursue writing and producing scripted

0:43:37.640 --> 0:43:40.399
<v Speaker 3>TV full time, but the thought of freelancing and giving

0:43:40.440 --> 0:43:44.640
<v Speaker 3>up financial stability Hello student loans terrifies me. Everyone in

0:43:44.760 --> 0:43:46.920
<v Speaker 3>LA seems to have advice, but now I'm stuck in

0:43:46.960 --> 0:43:50.600
<v Speaker 3>analysis paralysis. How do I take the next right sized

0:43:50.680 --> 0:43:53.880
<v Speaker 3>step toward a career I'm passionate about without losing myself

0:43:53.920 --> 0:43:57.280
<v Speaker 3>in the process. How do I balance humility, creative ambition,

0:43:57.440 --> 0:43:59.800
<v Speaker 3>and the rent checks with love and kindness?

0:44:00.080 --> 0:44:00.360
<v Speaker 6>Blake?

0:44:00.960 --> 0:44:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Hi Blake? Hello, Hello, Hi Blake Blake.

0:44:04.680 --> 0:44:06.440
<v Speaker 5>Eliza, do you want to take this? This is our

0:44:06.440 --> 0:44:08.759
<v Speaker 5>special guest Eliza Slessinger.

0:44:08.400 --> 0:44:10.400
<v Speaker 8>Hello, Hello, I'm very familiar.

0:44:11.600 --> 0:44:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Was that good?

0:44:12.360 --> 0:44:14.040
<v Speaker 8>No, in a good way? In a very good way.

0:44:14.840 --> 0:44:19.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I am no stranger to the analysis paralysis,

0:44:19.480 --> 0:44:22.600
<v Speaker 2>but also the actual act of putting one foot in

0:44:22.640 --> 0:44:25.919
<v Speaker 2>front of the other. And it's tough because you got

0:44:25.920 --> 0:44:29.080
<v Speaker 2>a taste of normalcy with a steady paycheck, and.

0:44:29.000 --> 0:44:30.920
<v Speaker 6>You're like, oh, look, how cozy this is.

0:44:31.239 --> 0:44:33.000
<v Speaker 2>If you were just an artist from the start and

0:44:33.040 --> 0:44:34.840
<v Speaker 2>you were used to flying by the seat of your pants,

0:44:35.000 --> 0:44:37.560
<v Speaker 2>then that would be very comfortable for you. I am that,

0:44:37.640 --> 0:44:40.360
<v Speaker 2>Like I am a freelance person, right, these are the

0:44:40.360 --> 0:44:42.479
<v Speaker 2>things that I do. I don't have that backup job.

0:44:42.640 --> 0:44:45.360
<v Speaker 2>The answer is, you're just going to have to do both.

0:44:46.160 --> 0:44:48.680
<v Speaker 2>You're just going to have to be exhausted. And the

0:44:48.760 --> 0:44:51.600
<v Speaker 2>question that I can't answer for you is will you

0:44:51.719 --> 0:44:56.719
<v Speaker 2>be okay being not artistically fulfilled in this life if

0:44:56.800 --> 0:45:00.680
<v Speaker 2>your creature comforts outweigh that some people are. For me,

0:45:00.840 --> 0:45:04.399
<v Speaker 2>it is paramount, But some people can live that way.

0:45:05.160 --> 0:45:07.640
<v Speaker 2>And are you willing to keep that job so you

0:45:07.640 --> 0:45:09.480
<v Speaker 2>can keep your lights on and then just write at

0:45:09.560 --> 0:45:12.000
<v Speaker 2>night and just hustle and have two jobs until one

0:45:12.120 --> 0:45:12.560
<v Speaker 2>edges out.

0:45:12.600 --> 0:45:15.360
<v Speaker 9>The other short answer is yeah. So, like for me,

0:45:15.640 --> 0:45:18.319
<v Speaker 9>I originally moved away from LA to go to New

0:45:18.400 --> 0:45:21.759
<v Speaker 9>York because I at my core am a hustler. And

0:45:21.840 --> 0:45:25.400
<v Speaker 9>so while I was doing a lot of those other projects,

0:45:25.440 --> 0:45:27.360
<v Speaker 9>like I always had a full time job, and like

0:45:27.440 --> 0:45:29.680
<v Speaker 9>I was able to freelance and sort of navigate it.

0:45:30.200 --> 0:45:33.360
<v Speaker 9>And what happened to me is I got a job

0:45:33.440 --> 0:45:36.400
<v Speaker 9>and got a really nice salary. I was still living

0:45:36.400 --> 0:45:38.560
<v Speaker 9>paycheck to paycheck at the time because New York was

0:45:38.640 --> 0:45:42.319
<v Speaker 9>just crazy, but I didn't freelance anymore. And then when

0:45:42.320 --> 0:45:45.759
<v Speaker 9>I had the layoff happen, it just shook everything up

0:45:45.800 --> 0:45:48.920
<v Speaker 9>and terrified me. And now I'm back in a place

0:45:48.960 --> 0:45:50.799
<v Speaker 9>where I have a full time job again. I came

0:45:50.840 --> 0:45:54.520
<v Speaker 9>back to LA and I'm really sort of leaning into

0:45:54.600 --> 0:45:58.240
<v Speaker 9>this creative outlet that I really love, but I don't

0:45:58.239 --> 0:46:01.560
<v Speaker 9>have side hustles, and that's kind of where I'm like,

0:46:02.520 --> 0:46:04.560
<v Speaker 9>I know I need to get back into the side hustles,

0:46:04.600 --> 0:46:07.200
<v Speaker 9>but sort of writing has taken the spot of what

0:46:07.239 --> 0:46:09.640
<v Speaker 9>that would be because I'm doing it at night.

0:46:09.719 --> 0:46:11.520
<v Speaker 8>I'm doing it on my lunch breaks at my full

0:46:11.520 --> 0:46:12.120
<v Speaker 8>time job.

0:46:12.680 --> 0:46:14.560
<v Speaker 2>Is it you're writing a scripted show. There's only two

0:46:14.600 --> 0:46:15.320
<v Speaker 2>scripted shows.

0:46:15.400 --> 0:46:16.959
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, two scripted shows right now.

0:46:17.000 --> 0:46:19.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, all you have to do is create those and

0:46:19.800 --> 0:46:21.960
<v Speaker 2>then it's about just getting somebody to read it. Like,

0:46:22.000 --> 0:46:24.680
<v Speaker 2>you're not a showrunner, you're not producing these things. So

0:46:25.160 --> 0:46:28.239
<v Speaker 2>if you've done that, the next step is connecting it

0:46:28.280 --> 0:46:31.000
<v Speaker 2>to the right people, and then the idea is that

0:46:31.000 --> 0:46:32.799
<v Speaker 2>that gets made so you can leave your other job.

0:46:33.080 --> 0:46:35.399
<v Speaker 6>But it sounds like you're already doing both of them.

0:46:35.480 --> 0:46:37.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean that's what I'm getting from you.

0:46:37.280 --> 0:46:39.600
<v Speaker 5>You're doing all of it, and I mean I think

0:46:39.640 --> 0:46:41.960
<v Speaker 5>you're looking for like a way out of doing all

0:46:42.000 --> 0:46:44.759
<v Speaker 5>of it together, like some sort of jackpot.

0:46:44.920 --> 0:46:46.400
<v Speaker 1>The truth of the matter is that you do have

0:46:46.440 --> 0:46:47.280
<v Speaker 1>to fucking hustle.

0:46:47.719 --> 0:46:50.600
<v Speaker 5>You do, and it's brutal sometimes, but like it is

0:46:50.640 --> 0:46:53.440
<v Speaker 5>a means to an end, it does pay off. So

0:46:53.600 --> 0:46:56.560
<v Speaker 5>while it might not be like the most glamorous part

0:46:56.600 --> 0:46:59.360
<v Speaker 5>of your life right now, it deserves your focus and

0:46:59.400 --> 0:47:01.960
<v Speaker 5>attention so that it can become your source of income

0:47:02.000 --> 0:47:02.400
<v Speaker 5>as well.

0:47:02.480 --> 0:47:06.160
<v Speaker 2>But also, I mean, yes, and it has to be

0:47:06.280 --> 0:47:08.480
<v Speaker 2>something that like, and it sounds like it is like

0:47:08.560 --> 0:47:12.840
<v Speaker 2>you can't live without it. Like I wrote a movie

0:47:12.840 --> 0:47:14.880
<v Speaker 2>that's on Netflix called Good on Paper, and that movie

0:47:14.920 --> 0:47:17.359
<v Speaker 2>is something that I wrote every time I didn't get

0:47:17.400 --> 0:47:20.080
<v Speaker 2>the audition, every time I had an off night and

0:47:20.080 --> 0:47:22.359
<v Speaker 2>I didn't have sets when I could have been going

0:47:22.400 --> 0:47:25.040
<v Speaker 2>out but I didn't, like, I always returned to that document.

0:47:25.120 --> 0:47:27.880
<v Speaker 2>And the good news is you have that fire in you.

0:47:28.280 --> 0:47:30.720
<v Speaker 2>But I'm gonna tell you right now. And it seems

0:47:30.719 --> 0:47:33.680
<v Speaker 2>to happen for everyone but me. There is no moment

0:47:33.719 --> 0:47:36.040
<v Speaker 2>where they knock and they're like, hey, we're making it.

0:47:36.400 --> 0:47:39.440
<v Speaker 2>You will submit this, Hey, we'll read it next week. Okay,

0:47:39.440 --> 0:47:41.960
<v Speaker 2>it's in three weeks. Oh the executive got sick. Oh

0:47:42.040 --> 0:47:44.160
<v Speaker 2>she had a baby, and then they'll pick it up.

0:47:44.200 --> 0:47:46.400
<v Speaker 2>But we're gonna do it in the summer. Okay, Well,

0:47:46.440 --> 0:47:47.720
<v Speaker 2>it's actually gonna be for digital.

0:47:47.800 --> 0:47:48.839
<v Speaker 1>Like you have to.

0:47:48.840 --> 0:47:52.880
<v Speaker 2>Become so accustomed to just eating shit for breakfast, because

0:47:52.960 --> 0:47:56.480
<v Speaker 2>these things take forever. I just took a blind script

0:47:56.520 --> 0:47:59.600
<v Speaker 2>deal with a major network that took eight months. I'm sorry,

0:47:59.600 --> 0:48:01.959
<v Speaker 2>I didn't take eight months to even get the deal,

0:48:01.960 --> 0:48:03.920
<v Speaker 2>and in the end we didn't take it because it

0:48:03.960 --> 0:48:06.200
<v Speaker 2>was so about eight months just to make a deal

0:48:06.239 --> 0:48:07.440
<v Speaker 2>for a show I hadn't created.

0:48:07.960 --> 0:48:09.759
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just letting make a deal for a show

0:48:09.800 --> 0:48:11.319
<v Speaker 1>you had not created, hadn't created.

0:48:11.400 --> 0:48:12.719
<v Speaker 2>It was a blind script deal, and in the end

0:48:12.719 --> 0:48:15.600
<v Speaker 2>we didn't take it. It is such a slog So you

0:48:15.600 --> 0:48:18.040
<v Speaker 2>have to be so in love with your characters and

0:48:18.080 --> 0:48:20.319
<v Speaker 2>your process, and then you have to be okay with

0:48:20.600 --> 0:48:22.920
<v Speaker 2>them dying when someone buys this and it sits on

0:48:22.960 --> 0:48:23.360
<v Speaker 2>a shelf.

0:48:23.600 --> 0:48:25.160
<v Speaker 1>You have to love the process so much.

0:48:25.440 --> 0:48:28.160
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, And that's kind of where I think I felt

0:48:28.200 --> 0:48:31.480
<v Speaker 9>inspired to write in because like, I, actually I'm loving

0:48:31.480 --> 0:48:33.719
<v Speaker 9>this process. I never thought like I wanted to get

0:48:33.760 --> 0:48:36.000
<v Speaker 9>into scripted, but that was kind of elusive. And then

0:48:36.280 --> 0:48:37.960
<v Speaker 9>I had a mentor to just be like, then just

0:48:38.000 --> 0:48:41.040
<v Speaker 9>go write it, and it seems so simple, and I

0:48:41.080 --> 0:48:44.120
<v Speaker 9>actually fell in love with the writing process and it

0:48:44.160 --> 0:48:46.640
<v Speaker 9>became really great. And then you know, I was so

0:48:46.719 --> 0:48:49.359
<v Speaker 9>consumed by one project that I started another, And now

0:48:49.360 --> 0:48:51.880
<v Speaker 9>I have these two projects that are just kind of

0:48:51.920 --> 0:48:55.200
<v Speaker 9>building and it's been really fun and exciting, but you know,

0:48:55.320 --> 0:48:57.000
<v Speaker 9>I do kind of want to pivot into this and

0:48:57.040 --> 0:48:59.520
<v Speaker 9>it sort of became like this thing of fear where

0:48:59.600 --> 0:49:02.800
<v Speaker 9>I'm like, oh, I actually have to like now continue

0:49:02.840 --> 0:49:06.160
<v Speaker 9>to push this onward and stuff. But I think the

0:49:06.200 --> 0:49:09.160
<v Speaker 9>fear is sort of coming from like feeling like I'm

0:49:09.239 --> 0:49:12.200
<v Speaker 9>being consumed by just making it all happen and doing

0:49:12.280 --> 0:49:15.359
<v Speaker 9>the hustle and doing everything, which isn't something that I'm

0:49:15.400 --> 0:49:16.520
<v Speaker 9>necessarily foreign to.

0:49:17.400 --> 0:49:19.000
<v Speaker 1>It's not it doesn't sound like fear to me.

0:49:19.719 --> 0:49:23.080
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like anxiety because you're wanting it all to

0:49:23.120 --> 0:49:25.640
<v Speaker 2>happen and I get it like all at once right now,

0:49:25.920 --> 0:49:28.200
<v Speaker 2>But there's actually very little to be done once you've

0:49:28.200 --> 0:49:31.240
<v Speaker 2>written it, and it's going to be sending these emails

0:49:31.320 --> 0:49:34.680
<v Speaker 2>like there's actually nothing to fear here because nothing is happening.

0:49:35.040 --> 0:49:37.759
<v Speaker 6>You don't have to leave that job yet. What you

0:49:37.840 --> 0:49:38.560
<v Speaker 6>are is bored.

0:49:38.600 --> 0:49:41.040
<v Speaker 2>You're like, I'm ready to go, and this industry is

0:49:41.520 --> 0:49:42.360
<v Speaker 2>moved so slowly.

0:49:42.480 --> 0:49:45.279
<v Speaker 6>So the hardest thing to do is nothing. And that's

0:49:45.320 --> 0:49:46.040
<v Speaker 6>what's happening right now.

0:49:46.080 --> 0:49:48.759
<v Speaker 2>You've got to go to work, polish your draft, make

0:49:48.760 --> 0:49:51.560
<v Speaker 2>sure that when it's sent, it's the best version. Don't

0:49:51.600 --> 0:49:53.080
<v Speaker 2>just fire it off. And I'm the worst at that,

0:49:53.160 --> 0:49:55.520
<v Speaker 2>Like I will send a network draft with typos like

0:49:55.640 --> 0:49:57.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't even I didn't prove read my college essays.

0:49:58.600 --> 0:50:01.280
<v Speaker 2>It's just slow. And that's the hardest part is remembering

0:50:01.320 --> 0:50:05.759
<v Speaker 2>to live your life while your dreams like slowly start

0:50:05.800 --> 0:50:06.319
<v Speaker 2>to take off.

0:50:06.719 --> 0:50:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:50:07.280 --> 0:50:09.960
<v Speaker 3>Sean Hayes once gave a piece of advice that was

0:50:10.000 --> 0:50:12.960
<v Speaker 3>like he for himself when he was coming up. He said,

0:50:13.040 --> 0:50:15.000
<v Speaker 3>and I think he actually still does this, but do

0:50:15.280 --> 0:50:18.200
<v Speaker 3>one thing every day that's like toward the career you

0:50:18.239 --> 0:50:20.040
<v Speaker 3>want to have. So like you feel like oh, I

0:50:20.120 --> 0:50:21.400
<v Speaker 3>got to be taking meaning is I gotta be doing

0:50:21.560 --> 0:50:23.560
<v Speaker 3>doing all these things. Even if every day you do

0:50:23.760 --> 0:50:27.839
<v Speaker 3>one thing that's advancing your career or one contact, you're

0:50:27.920 --> 0:50:29.280
<v Speaker 3>still making progress.

0:50:29.760 --> 0:50:32.600
<v Speaker 2>The biggest mistake you can make is thinking other people

0:50:32.600 --> 0:50:35.200
<v Speaker 2>are working for you, and then you find out that

0:50:35.239 --> 0:50:38.760
<v Speaker 2>they're not read the trades. Find the executive at the streamer,

0:50:38.920 --> 0:50:41.280
<v Speaker 2>what's your dream network? How do you get to that person?

0:50:41.480 --> 0:50:43.640
<v Speaker 2>Who can you befriend that could read that? Do you

0:50:43.680 --> 0:50:44.240
<v Speaker 2>have a rep?

0:50:44.360 --> 0:50:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Do you have reps?

0:50:45.200 --> 0:50:45.839
<v Speaker 8>No? I don't.

0:50:45.880 --> 0:50:47.200
<v Speaker 1>That's the other you got to get that rep.

0:50:47.320 --> 0:50:49.840
<v Speaker 9>I've always been in house, Like when I was at Conde,

0:50:49.880 --> 0:50:53.080
<v Speaker 9>I was in house and advertising and so like when

0:50:53.120 --> 0:50:55.360
<v Speaker 9>I was freelance saying, it was just me getting tapped

0:50:55.400 --> 0:50:57.040
<v Speaker 9>by people within my network.

0:50:57.080 --> 0:50:58.280
<v Speaker 8>But I've never had a REP.

0:50:58.360 --> 0:51:01.759
<v Speaker 9>And I got invite earlier on that was sort of like,

0:51:01.840 --> 0:51:03.440
<v Speaker 9>you know, you don't really need a REP if you

0:51:03.520 --> 0:51:05.839
<v Speaker 9>don't have anything to be wrapped. But now I'm sort

0:51:05.840 --> 0:51:08.080
<v Speaker 9>of at a spot where I'm like, is this the

0:51:08.120 --> 0:51:10.160
<v Speaker 9>tipping point or do I need to actually get get now?

0:51:10.239 --> 0:51:12.719
<v Speaker 5>This is how you get representation with the material that

0:51:12.760 --> 0:51:15.000
<v Speaker 5>you have. The material written is so far and there

0:51:15.120 --> 0:51:17.720
<v Speaker 5>is something that separates people who succeed in this business

0:51:17.760 --> 0:51:20.120
<v Speaker 5>and people that don't. And I think you're at the

0:51:20.400 --> 0:51:22.920
<v Speaker 5>crescendo of that, or at the tipping point of that.

0:51:23.040 --> 0:51:26.120
<v Speaker 5>I should say, you got to just keep fucking chugging away.

0:51:26.280 --> 0:51:29.040
<v Speaker 5>Like it is hard, it is arduous, it's all of

0:51:29.080 --> 0:51:32.719
<v Speaker 5>those things. But that's what separates people from being successful in.

0:51:32.600 --> 0:51:35.000
<v Speaker 1>This industry and people who aren't is.

0:51:35.000 --> 0:51:37.400
<v Speaker 5>The people that give up at this point or it's.

0:51:37.160 --> 0:51:39.239
<v Speaker 1>Like overwhelmed, or I don't know what to do next.

0:51:39.239 --> 0:51:40.520
<v Speaker 1>It's like no one's coming to save you.

0:51:41.080 --> 0:51:42.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, what's your next step?

0:51:43.000 --> 0:51:44.080
<v Speaker 1>You have two scripts?

0:51:44.440 --> 0:51:46.880
<v Speaker 8>So I have two concepts. I'm starting to script them

0:51:46.960 --> 0:51:47.319
<v Speaker 8>right now.

0:51:47.760 --> 0:51:49.359
<v Speaker 1>Because some people won't want you to do that.

0:51:49.400 --> 0:51:52.200
<v Speaker 2>There's nothing wrong with having a script in your back pocket,

0:51:52.239 --> 0:51:55.400
<v Speaker 2>and you need a concept is very hard to sell

0:51:55.480 --> 0:51:56.640
<v Speaker 2>if it's not packaged.

0:51:56.840 --> 0:51:57.960
<v Speaker 1>So right now, it's just you.

0:51:58.120 --> 0:52:00.000
<v Speaker 2>If you were if you walked in and you're like,

0:52:00.040 --> 0:52:02.440
<v Speaker 2>I've got these three pieces of talent attached and someone

0:52:02.480 --> 0:52:05.839
<v Speaker 2>loves it. Nobody wants that have that script, and maybe

0:52:05.840 --> 0:52:07.359
<v Speaker 2>you show it to maybe you don't, but at least

0:52:07.400 --> 0:52:08.479
<v Speaker 2>you can show it to your rep.

0:52:08.560 --> 0:52:10.400
<v Speaker 6>Like you need proof of concept.

0:52:10.920 --> 0:52:13.880
<v Speaker 9>If it's a scripted No, it is scripted for sure.

0:52:14.200 --> 0:52:16.400
<v Speaker 9>One of the thriller drama. One of them is the

0:52:16.440 --> 0:52:17.279
<v Speaker 9>drama d so.

0:52:17.320 --> 0:52:18.440
<v Speaker 1>I think they're hour long.

0:52:18.840 --> 0:52:21.520
<v Speaker 8>Both of them are eight episodes one hour each per season.

0:52:21.800 --> 0:52:23.360
<v Speaker 6>Not only do you need the script, I mean you can.

0:52:23.840 --> 0:52:24.560
<v Speaker 6>You can do a pitch.

0:52:24.600 --> 0:52:26.600
<v Speaker 2>Some people for a pitch, but this pitch needs to

0:52:26.640 --> 0:52:29.120
<v Speaker 2>be like you need a one sheet, you need a

0:52:29.120 --> 0:52:31.600
<v Speaker 2>pitch deck, and you need these things to be like grabbable.

0:52:31.760 --> 0:52:34.240
<v Speaker 2>And I would ask someone you know who's a writer

0:52:34.360 --> 0:52:37.280
<v Speaker 2>for other examples of a pitch deck. Unless you already

0:52:37.320 --> 0:52:39.960
<v Speaker 2>have that. It's the hardest part. I always find it's

0:52:39.960 --> 0:52:42.799
<v Speaker 2>easier to just write the script. I hate pitching. It's

0:52:42.800 --> 0:52:44.719
<v Speaker 2>a great way to have people tell you to fuck off.

0:52:45.239 --> 0:52:47.720
<v Speaker 2>But you should be writing the script. Were you planning

0:52:47.719 --> 0:52:48.239
<v Speaker 2>on writing it?

0:52:48.480 --> 0:52:49.799
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I was planning on writing it.

0:52:49.840 --> 0:52:52.080
<v Speaker 9>I sort of was getting into like putting the pitch

0:52:52.120 --> 0:52:56.440
<v Speaker 9>material and series bible together, and then I've been getting

0:52:56.440 --> 0:52:58.680
<v Speaker 9>feedback and people are like, oh, you sort of just

0:52:58.760 --> 0:53:00.760
<v Speaker 9>need more of a script this as well.

0:53:00.800 --> 0:53:02.480
<v Speaker 2>You should just write the script because it is in

0:53:02.520 --> 0:53:04.360
<v Speaker 2>that script that you will find all the problems. Have

0:53:04.520 --> 0:53:07.160
<v Speaker 2>people read it, have people you trust not your friend.

0:53:07.440 --> 0:53:10.520
<v Speaker 2>But like real writers, read it, rewrite it, rewrite it,

0:53:10.640 --> 0:53:12.640
<v Speaker 2>get it to a place where you think it's bulletproof,

0:53:12.880 --> 0:53:15.160
<v Speaker 2>then give it to your rep who will give you

0:53:15.239 --> 0:53:17.960
<v Speaker 2>their critiques, and then you go from there. But you

0:53:18.040 --> 0:53:20.200
<v Speaker 2>got to you have to actually write it. Otherwise you're

0:53:20.239 --> 0:53:21.560
<v Speaker 2>just a person who says that they're a writer.

0:53:22.000 --> 0:53:22.200
<v Speaker 8>Yeah.

0:53:22.239 --> 0:53:24.000
<v Speaker 9>I don't call myself a writer, if any I know,

0:53:24.040 --> 0:53:25.880
<v Speaker 9>I'm a producer, and I think that's been like the

0:53:25.920 --> 0:53:29.640
<v Speaker 9>other hesitation is like I've done producaying, I've directed a

0:53:29.680 --> 0:53:32.480
<v Speaker 9>little bit, but like writing is like very I haven't

0:53:32.520 --> 0:53:35.160
<v Speaker 9>done it since college, and like this is like actually

0:53:35.440 --> 0:53:37.400
<v Speaker 9>something that I'm finding them falling in love with.

0:53:38.080 --> 0:53:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Enjoy it, enjoy falling in love with it. Thank god

0:53:40.680 --> 0:53:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Eliza was here today. She's giving you great advice.

0:53:43.160 --> 0:53:45.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I can't tell you that I've read Saved the

0:53:45.120 --> 0:53:48.600
<v Speaker 2>Cat in a long time their Screenwriter podcast. Like, write

0:53:48.680 --> 0:53:52.040
<v Speaker 2>it and then you'll rewrite it and then step away

0:53:52.239 --> 0:53:55.600
<v Speaker 2>write it again. Then you can get your agent can't

0:53:55.640 --> 0:53:59.040
<v Speaker 2>represent you unless they have something to actually read. Otherwise

0:53:59.040 --> 0:54:00.880
<v Speaker 2>it's just like a fun concept. Nobody really wants to

0:54:00.880 --> 0:54:05.319
<v Speaker 2>read a Bible. That's fair enough, any kind of Bible heard.

0:54:06.480 --> 0:54:07.120
<v Speaker 8>He herd.

0:54:07.719 --> 0:54:10.480
<v Speaker 5>Okay, well thanks for calling in. I mean that's some

0:54:10.520 --> 0:54:13.120
<v Speaker 5>good advice. So good luck with everything, beautiful.

0:54:13.200 --> 0:54:14.120
<v Speaker 8>Thank you all so much.

0:54:14.200 --> 0:54:16.520
<v Speaker 3>Check back in in like six months, Blake, Okay, yeah,

0:54:16.600 --> 0:54:17.040
<v Speaker 3>let us.

0:54:16.960 --> 0:54:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Know how you're doing from your mansion after you sold

0:54:19.680 --> 0:54:20.000
<v Speaker 2>the show.

0:54:20.320 --> 0:54:21.000
<v Speaker 1>And I'm jealous.

0:54:21.440 --> 0:54:23.640
<v Speaker 8>I wish so awesome. Thank you all so much. I

0:54:23.680 --> 0:54:24.359
<v Speaker 8>appreciate it.

0:54:24.800 --> 0:54:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Bye bye bye. It's such a it's such a brutal.

0:54:30.480 --> 0:54:33.640
<v Speaker 5>I'm like with career stuff, I'm like, I don't fucking

0:54:33.680 --> 0:54:35.719
<v Speaker 5>know what to tell you. I don't really know. Let's

0:54:35.800 --> 0:54:37.440
<v Speaker 5>put one foot front of it. Like all I can

0:54:37.480 --> 0:54:39.960
<v Speaker 5>say is hustle, hustle, hustle. But it's like that was

0:54:40.000 --> 0:54:41.879
<v Speaker 5>good too because it got into specifics.

0:54:41.960 --> 0:54:44.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's and it's like it's a super granular thing.

0:54:44.840 --> 0:54:46.759
<v Speaker 2>But like that's what's so great about stand up is

0:54:46.800 --> 0:54:49.040
<v Speaker 2>like just go up, just go You don't need someone

0:54:49.120 --> 0:54:50.759
<v Speaker 2>to okay it, No one has to, Like you can

0:54:50.840 --> 0:54:53.640
<v Speaker 2>just you can create it every night. The writing is tough,

0:54:53.880 --> 0:54:57.600
<v Speaker 2>but plenty of show creators like we're like Mark Platt

0:54:57.640 --> 0:55:01.040
<v Speaker 2>was like a lawyer and then he created shows. Like

0:55:01.080 --> 0:55:03.120
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people just start as something else and

0:55:03.200 --> 0:55:06.439
<v Speaker 2>just move into writing so it can be done.

0:55:06.800 --> 0:55:09.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's just hard. Let's take a quick break and

0:55:09.800 --> 0:55:10.959
<v Speaker 1>I have a little wrap up question.

0:55:10.960 --> 0:55:14.960
