Speaker 2: I love watching comedy shows specials. I love it. I struggle.

31
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 4: I don't think a lot of them are funny.

32
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,760

34
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,880

Speaker 2: I just watched this one, you guys, he's so funny.

36
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: It's this Scottish comedian. Alan's obsessed with him. I had

37
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: to put subtitles on understand. It was like intense. I

38
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 2: tried to DM him just because he's like a really

39
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: I mean, Alan loved him so much.

40
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,920

00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 4: want to Scottish comedian. I mean, we're we made.

42
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,279
Speaker 2: A tast in Scotland and we got to tell you then. Kevin,

43
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: his name is Kevin Bridges. Hold on a second, so

44
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: I'm going to pull up one of his little skits.

45
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 2: So but I did DM him. I was like, my

46
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: husband loves you, because I wanted to see like when

47
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: he was playing let's see if you're saying mate, Oh no,

48
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: he didn't respond.

49
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 3: Hey, Ken, if you're listening, did you read it? Oh

50
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 3: that would be funny.

00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 5: Oh they don't.

52
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 2: It says a cow came receive your message because they

53
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 2: don't allow new message requests from everyone.

54
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 6: The thing is is like when you go to see

55
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 6: a comedian, the pressure like, yeah, it's fun to make

56
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 6: people unexpectedly laugh when they're there, and they're like, be funny.

57
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 6: That just makes my throat close.

58
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 5: Let's get her on here, I am. Let's get started, ladies.

00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:53,280

Speaker 5: Same. I've learned my lesson. Who did you say? Don't

00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 5: even want to remat We can't go.

69
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 2: No, my my attorneys right here will not allow me

70
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: to see further.

71
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 5: We have the receipts somewhere.

72
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 4: No, we don't know. We've scrubbed it.

73
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 5: Scrubbed it from the internet. It never happened, effects.

74
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 2: Scrub scrubbed because I actually don't I've said this actually

75
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 2: I don't hate. I dislike, but I don't hate anyone,

76
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: because my mom always said that as a kid, She's like,

77
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 2: you don't hate, you dislike.

78
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 7: I don't know why moms always say that. I'm pretty

79
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 7: casual about who I hate and I throw it around.

80
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: But do you really mean that, like you really like

81
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 2: there's like true, I don't know.

82
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 7: I guess what is hate, right, right, Like actually hating

83
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 7: someone and then they're like you hate them, probably because

84
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 7: you like secretly love them, But like, I really really

85
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 7: really detest Kanye West, but I don't hate him because

86
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 7: I think there's something wrong with him, so I almost

87
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 7: feel bad for him.

88
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 5: Right that one. I don't care. I'm never gonna like

89
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 5: need a record deal.

90
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 7: Like it's okay to write some people, it's okay to

91
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 7: openly hate, Like once you're an open Nazi, it's.

92
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: Like okay, yeah yeah, fair, yeah fair, Yeah, so easy,

93
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 2: we all move on, right Yeah No, no, no, that is

94
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: I just think it's so hard because when you don't

95
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 2: actually and that's why I've taken been more careful with words,

96
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: be cause it's like I don't I don't know these

97
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,359
Speaker 2: people that I sometimes have opinions on, so It's like,

98
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: how can I actually say I don't like X, Y

99
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 2: and Z from what I see when I don't actually know.

100
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 2: And I don't like it when people do that to

101
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,359
Speaker 2: me because they don't know the inside, right. So it's like,

102
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 2: I don't think it's fair then to say, like everyone

103
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 2: hates on Megan Markle. I was watching her show because

104
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 2: I just would love to see what that You know,

105
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 2: what the show is and all about it, but you know,

106
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: I don't know, and like with the ins and outs

107
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 2: of all of it, is so like, how can I

108
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 2: hate someone that I don't even know?

109
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 5: Right?

110
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 7: So not hate, but I do think, you know, And

111
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 7: I can't say as a public person, like we put

112
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 7: stuff out there and the lesson that I've had to

113
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 7: learn if.

114
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 5: We're really getting cosmically granular.

115
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 7: About it, like you genuinely can't control people's reaction, and

116
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 7: it usually has to do with the fact that as

117
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 7: a woman like you dared to try that really upsets people, and.

118
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 5: So it does.

119
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 7: I was actually thinking about this this morning, being preemptively judged,

120
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 7: Like I hate the idea that I would make a

121
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 7: joke that's a good joke, but a fan would like

122
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 7: just read something about it or a person, and then

123
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 7: they'd be like, well, she obviously hates coyotes.

124
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:26,679
Speaker 5: And you're like, no, I don't.

125
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 7: It was a joke about how we shouldn't be killing them,

126
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 7: but you only read the hot take of someone else,

127
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 7: which is normally how we judge things.

128
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,239
Speaker 5: So I don't think it's ever hate.

129
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 7: But I do think people when we put ourselves out there,

130
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 7: you are putting yourself out there so people can digest

131
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 7: it however they want, and that's something that we have

132
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 7: to get over as public figures.

133
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 2: Well, I feel like it's got to be hard to though,

134
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,160
Speaker 2: because one of the reasons why I love com I mean,

135
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 2: I'm I love comedy. I love comedians. I think you

136
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 2: guys are hilarious, and I feel like you guys get

137
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 2: a pass to say things that we want to say

138
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 2: but we can't say. But I feel like as the

139
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 2: years go on, I've seen comedians kind of tighten up

140
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 2: a little bit because they're afraid of certain backlash, and

141
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 2: it's like, I hate that because I'm like, that's why

142
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 2: I love watching comedians, because they say things.

143
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 3: That are.

144
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 2: Politically incorrect or whatever it is, and it's okay because

145
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 2: you almost get like like I said, like a free pass,

146
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 2: but now I feel like it's kind of changing a bit.

147
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 7: I think it depends on the comedian, because I don't

148
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 7: think you'll find that with a lot of well known

149
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 7: white male comedians. I think they're like, I'm just going

150
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 7: to keep doing it, and we do give them a

151
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 7: pass in general because it's like, oh, he's like your

152
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 7: grumpy uncle. I do think at a lower level of comedy,

153
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 7: people are aware of that because you're so let's say

154
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 7: you're like a D level comic or you're just starting

155
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 7: out right, you are still down there with the masses.

156
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 7: You are not up in your mansion getting a billion

157
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 7: dollars for a special, So you are beholden to the

158
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 7: slings and arrows of public judgment because you are with

159
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 7: those people. And then that's why celebrities get called out

160
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 7: of tough much. And it's not it's because you can't

161
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 7: be in touch. You can't be one of the people

162
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 7: when you have risen to like, let's say, a Dave

163
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 7: Chappelle level.

164
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 5: I also think.

165
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 7: There is an art to saying the right thing and

166
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 7: so being misunderstood. Sometimes it is because you did not

167
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 7: accurately explain your joke. You didn't posit a thesis, You

168
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 7: didn't really explain yourself. You just said something for the

169
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 7: sake of the shock of it, which is also fine.

170
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 7: And the question is like are you going to be

171
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 7: okay with it? Are you going to be okay? Like

172
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 7: do you want to go to the mat on that

173
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 7: trans joke? Was it a good trans joke? Was it

174
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 7: a good Jewish joke? You know? But I do think

175
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 7: in general, our conscience has been raised in terms of

176
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 7: why we say the jokes that we say, and like

177
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 7: is it actually hurting someone when you, you know, call

178
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 7: women whoes? Which I've done, you know, And as I

179
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 7: get older, I'm like, maybe don't Maybe we can say

180
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 7: something smarter, you know. So I think I don't mind

181
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 7: the reckoning of like figuring out like where is your

182
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 7: joke coming from? But I do think like true big

183
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 7: comics like and I would clude myself in that, like

184
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 7: we're still saying the things that we want to say.

185
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 7: And the question is always like what's your intention beyond

186
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 7: making a joke?

187
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 5: Like what do you really want to say here?

188
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 7: And how can you say it so that you can

189
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 7: get the most amount of people on your side without

190
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 7: hurting anyone?

191
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 5: Deliberately.

192
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:16,239
Speaker 4: Sure.

193
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 5: Sorry, I think about this stuff a lot.

194
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, it makes sense. So I hate coyotes.

195
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 6: I'd like to just say that, since we're on the topic,

196
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 6: I want to tack to my dog and I actually

197
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 6: hate them. So I'm gonna go ahead and say it

198
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 6: for you if.

199
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 5: You can cancel me. But you can cancel me for

200
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 5: the example. No, I wouldn't.

201
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 6: No, I wouldn't, but I someone then cancel me, and

202
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 6: that's fine. When you were growing up, like what was

203
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 6: like A life of a comedian is just so fun

204
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 6: to me, But I sometimes feel like the comedy doesn't

205
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,319
Speaker 6: always come from like the most like go get in place,

206
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 6: Like a lot of times funny people are funny because

207
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 6: of trauma my personal experience, and I'm just like, growing up,

208
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 6: what was it like, when did you know you wanted

209
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 6: to be a comedian? Did you just decide Like a

210
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 6: couple of days ago you're like, yeah, I'll go all

211
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 6: in on this because it seems you're working out or.

212
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 7: I'm still deciding. Yeah, Like the jury is still out.

213
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 7: I think there's I can't remember who said this. I

214
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 7: want to say it's Larry David, but I could be wrong,

215
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 7: and i'd have to call out to my husband.

216
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 5: I'm not going to do that.

217
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 7: There was some comic that once said, like, comedy is

218
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 7: either and I'm gonna paraphrase this and butcher it like

219
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 7: like suburban or urban, like suburban or street like. It's

220
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 7: either coming from like something painful that happened at a disadvantage,

221
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 7: or you are commenting on the mendanity of like everyday life,

222
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 7: right like, And it's usually those two buckets.

223
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 5: And I always think comedy I agree with that.

224
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 7: And I think when you make a joke, it's either

225
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 7: I'm saying something that's so relatable whether or not you

226
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 7: had the wherewithal to say it, and you're like, I

227
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 7: can't believe she said that, or you're saying something so

228
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 7: unrelatable that it's hilarious. I find that it's usually those

229
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 7: two buckets. I tend to go with the more relatable topic.

230
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 5: But I don't know.

231
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 7: I think when you're growing up, everybody has something that

232
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 7: they trade on. It could be your looks, it could

233
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 7: be your athleticism. Maybe you're the kid who like actually

234
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 7: works at the group project. I was always a kid

235
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 7: that's like, let's do a skit. And I was always like,

236
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 7: if there's like oral report or write it down. I'm like,

237
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 7: let's like let's have some razzle devil, but then you

238
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 7: can phone it in, like you let your friend who's

239
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 7: gonna go to like medical school, like do the actual work.

240
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 7: And I'm just gonna like make it fun for everyone.

241
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 7: And I think being able to make kids laugh, especially

242
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 7: at an age like young girls weren't always like encouraged

243
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 7: to be funny, and I was. And that's how I

244
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 7: got girls to like me. It's how I got boys

245
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 7: to be my friends. And so the goal was always

246
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 7: making people laugh, and that just becomes your thing and

247
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 7: it just kind of stayed my thing. And then and

248
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 7: then here I am with an Amazon special at forty two.

249
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 5: I mean that's amazing. Yeah right, you really?

250
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean give yourself a little bit more like credit,

251
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: Like that's we did skip a lot.

252
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 5: We did skip a lot. I am just trying to.

253
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was like, wow, I got there.

254
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 5: I've had two kids.

255
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 7: A lot of it's blurry, but getting people to laugh

256
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 7: is always the way I make myself comfortable. It's also

257
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 7: the way that you kind of relate to people in

258
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 7: a room you walk in, you know, you kind of

259
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 7: throw out things to see, like who's on the same

260
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 7: level as me? Who can I get on my side?

261
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 7: Who can I make more comfortable?

262
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 6: Was that ever a survival technique turned comedy or was

263
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:15,839
Speaker 6: that kind of like a.

264
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 4: I mean, problems is an innate thing.

265
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 7: I mean, everybody has parents who were divorced, and like

266
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 7: that seemed fine at the time, But if you can't

267
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 7: really examine your life until you're like over thirty five,

268
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 7: Like I've been doing interviews in podcasts forever.

269
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 5: Like what's your inspiration? What's your cosmic pull?

270
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 7: And I'm like, I don't know, vodka, SODA's And then

271
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 7: you start to get older and you're like, oh, that's why.

272
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 7: That's why I always thought, you know, And so it

273
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 7: is this complex thing. And to even begin to understand

274
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 7: comedic inspiration, I think you have to like review a

275
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 7: full career. So it's a deeply complex and boring answer.

276
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 7: But making people laugh makes me feel good. Yeah, So

277
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 7: any comic that tells you like, I just want to

278
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 7: make people laugh and the rest of that sentences because

279
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 7: I'm selfish and I deeply need it to feel good

280
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 7: about myself.

281
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 2: Well, no, but it does feel good, you know what

282
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 2: I mean, Like I remember being up on stage and

283
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 2: saying a joke. It's nice to hear people laugh when

284
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 2: you know, when we're on tour or whatever it is.

285
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 3: You know, yeah, like I'm not funny at all, really true.

286
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 5: But it's not said one thing exactly.

287
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. I'm not funny, But if people

288
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 3: actually laughed at me, I'd be.

289
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: Like, oh wow, like that was actually funny. Very validating,

290
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: Like it is very validating.

291
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 5: Well, it's also powerful in that.

292
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's it's all at once validating, affirming, reaffirming on

293
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 7: the days you feel bad and it's sexual and I

294
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 7: often think about, you know, all the years that I

295
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 7: like slogged it out in the clubs.

296
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 5: This is at a time where like you still had to.

297
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 7: Hear women aren't funny, but you are, and you're like cool,

298
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 7: you sound you sound super evolved. But I would get

299
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 7: men would come up to me after the show and

300
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 7: their girlfriend was laughing because I could see them because

301
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 7: it was like a small club, and the guy, I

302
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 7: remember this happened more than once.

303
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 5: The guy would shake my hand really hard, and I

304
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 5: was always like, what is.

305
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 7: That, Like, I'm not talking about how strong I am.

306
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 7: It's a dominance thing. So there is this thing because

307
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 7: women find a sense of humor, like it's up there

308
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 7: with in terms of sexuality, Like that's very like we

309
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 7: will ugly dudes with weird teeth because you're like, he.

310
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 5: Needs me laugh.

311
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 7: And you never see it the other way. I've never

312
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 7: had a smoking hot guy. You look, she's funny, and

313
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 7: now I'm wrong hard like they don't. You occasionally get

314
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 7: like the one weird one and you're like, what's wrong

315
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 7: with why are you so hot? And think that I

316
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 7: am because I'm making you laugh. Funny is sexy in

317
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 7: a man and a woman. It's kind of like touch

318
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 7: or go. It's not something because men are not as

319
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 7: cerebral as women. All this is to say I would

320
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,959
Speaker 7: spend the hour making his girlfriend laugh in a way

321
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 7: that he never could making the woman with him laugh,

322
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 7: which we likento something like a sexual experience, right, And

323
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 7: I think that there's something threatening not all men, not

324
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 7: all the time, but I this is the only way

325
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 7: I could diagnose it. I spend an hour like sacking

326
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 7: your girlfriend basically like she's super turned on and she's

327
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 7: having this great time in a way that you couldn't.

328
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 7: So to assert physical dominance. They would shake my hand

329
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 7: really hard and it always hurt and it never felt great.

330
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 7: But there is like a sexual component, like if you

331
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 7: can get people to laugh, they feel comfortable and safe,

332
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 7: and so that's that metaphysical aspect to it.

333
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: Do you think there is less spots for women in

334
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: comedy or more less spots? Yeah, like where it's the

335
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 2: competitiveness of it and having because I mean, I see

336
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: more male specials than you know. I obviously watch Nikki's,

337
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: I'll watch yours obviously, but like.

338
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 5: Which one of them?

339
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 2: Don't we watch all some of the new one that's

340
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 2: coming out, Thank you, absolutely them.

341
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 7: You know what, people are gonna get upset about this,

342
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 7: but I think real feminists know, Look, this is a

343
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 7: numbers game. There are more men doing stand up, so

344
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 7: numbers wise, there will be more men who have specials

345
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 7: because of volume, so what you and so there's that.

346
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 7: I think it's never been a better time to be

347
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 7: something other than a man in comedy because people are

348
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 7: more open to it. Part of that is all the

349
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 7: work done by the women who came before me, and

350
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 7: part of that is the work done by me and

351
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 7: other women of my sort of class of comedy who

352
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 7: you know, came in there and show that you can

353
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 7: be attractive and funny and have multiple and like have

354
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 7: the things that men have. I mean some of some

355
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 7: of the biggest comics are women, you know. And so

356
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 7: it's not I'm not it's not an indictment on your question,

357
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 7: but I do think women ask that because it's frustrating

358
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 7: when you don't get the things that you want.

359
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 5: But here's the god's honest truth.

360
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 7: No one who's actually funny, like good funny, not just

361
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 7: like little funny and doing the work isn't getting ahead.

362
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 5: No one. It just doesn't happen.

363
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 7: And I promise you because I'm out there male and female, Like,

364
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 7: there's a lot of mediocre comedy out there, but if

365
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 7: you can combine even being mediocre with working hard, you'll

366
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 7: get somewhere. So I think people are disheartened because it

367
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 7: is so frustrating. But the excuse and I hear this,

368
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 7: you didn't say this, but like, oh, it's because I'm

369
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 7: a girl.

370
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 5: I didn't get these spots because I'm a girl. I'm

371
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 5: not on that lineup.

372
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 7: It's like, no, no, because that takes away from what

373
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 7: I've earned as a woman. That's saying that I'm just

374
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 7: up there because I'm a woman, which is incorrect. And

375
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 7: so I do think people don't realize, at least for

376
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 7: stand up, which I realize is a very small percentage

377
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 7: of people listening to this who actually care about the

378
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 7: stand up it is. There is work, like it is

379
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 7: a craft. It warrants ten thousand hours plus. It's not

380
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 7: just writing down a couple jokes and then going up

381
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 7: and then being like I didn't get on this lineup

382
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 7: because I'm not one of the guys. It's like, well,

383
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 7: then go make your own show. There's no rules in

384
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 7: show business. You know, you can do whatever you want.

385
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 2: I always say, can the best person get the job?

386
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 2: But I also understand wanting to include everybody, But I

387
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 2: just I still just go back to the you know who.

388
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 2: Why can't it just be the best person.

389
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 7: It can't be the best person because the best people

390
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 7: aren't always deciding. But I do think laughing, like laughter

391
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 7: is a meritocracy. Like nobody laughs continuously at a joke

392
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 7: because it's because you're a woman and you're like, oh,

393
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 7: she's trying, Like we might give you the laugh a

394
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 7: couple times because we're nervous or whatever. But nobody's gonna

395
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 7: watch your full hour and buy tickets to see you

396
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 7: out of like the kindness of their heart because token ism, right,

397
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,919
Speaker 7: And so the best person also can't always get the job,

398
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 7: you know, for whatever reason, whoever's doing the including or

399
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 7: whatever the audience is. But there's the good news is

400
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 7: there's enough jobs out there mm hm at least, so.

401
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 2: Then that probably takes away from any cattiness then and there,

402
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: or do you think that's still there because it's like

403
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 2: you're still wanting to be known as the best female

404
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 2: comedian or I don't know.

405
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 7: I mean we were talking about people we hate earlier, Like,

406
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 7: I don't have any issue with any woman in comedy,

407
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 7: and I know most of them, and there's usually at

408
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 7: least now, especially if you'll put it this way, if

409
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 7: you work like if you work, like if you tour,

410
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 7: and you know, like the grit and determination that this takes.

411
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 7: When you meet another woman who's actually doing it, it's

412
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 7: always it's usually a pretty lovely thing. Like I met

413
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 7: Leanne Morgan, I met Heather McMahon all within the last

414
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 7: few years, and I didn't know these women for when

415
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 7: I was coming up, and they're it was just like

416
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 7: Oh my god, I've seen you. Oh you know exactly

417
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 7: how this feels. And there's actually very few women that

418
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 7: really know that.

419
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 5: I don't.

420
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 7: There's also like, at least for me, like the idea

421
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 7: of being the best female comic to me is the

422
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 7: trash one, Like I want to be the best comic.

423
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 7: So when people say you're my favorite female comic, I'm like, oh,

424
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 7: is what I'm saying inherently so female that you need

425
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 7: like a translator, Like you're telling me, like last last

426
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 7: Friday at the improv, when I destroyed on a lineup

427
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 7: all men, like I was still just mediocre enough to

428
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 7: be on par with the least with one of the

429
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 7: worst men. Because women are always like under that. I like,

430
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 7: I don't when I think of like Ali Wong, I

431
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 7: don't think she's like the best female comic. I think

432
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 7: she's a great comic.

433
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 5: You know, I hear you.

434
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 4: I do hear that point.

435
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 2: But also like I do have a favorite male actor,

436
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 2: a favorite male like fem actress, and I don't know,

437
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 2: I think it's for me personally, I hear. I'm like,

438
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 2: I totally get that, but I'm also like, I think

439
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 2: it's they're different because we are men and women I

440
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: do believe are so wildly different that I'm like I

441
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 2: they play different roles, so I like them differently for

442
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 2: different reasons.

443
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 5: I don't know. Acting I think is different.

444
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,360
Speaker 7: But also we also have like Best Female Actor, Best

445
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,120
Speaker 7: Male Actor, like Wake Me Up. When the Emmys are

446
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 7: like Best Comedy Special, Best Female Comedy Special, Best Male

447
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,200
Speaker 7: Comedy Special, like I do think you can equally enjoy.

448
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 5: An hour of stand up from a woman or a man.

449
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 7: Now, I don't know if it was always that way,

450
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,120
Speaker 7: and I do think we do speak to different audiences.

451
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,959
Speaker 7: But for that matter, let's make it the best gay special.

452
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 7: Let's make it the best Black special, the best you know,

453
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 7: there are also great divides in ethnicity and uh where

454
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 7: you are on the sexuality spectrum, and so I think

455
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 7: if you really want to come to play, you're going

456
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 7: to have to just play with everyone.

457
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,399
Speaker 6: When you do jokes that incorporate like your family or anybody,

458
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 6: do you tell them ahead of time or is anybody prepared?

459
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 6: Are you running things? Has it caused a riff in

460
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 6: the family? Is there anything that you've been like, I

461
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 6: shouldn't have done that.

462
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 5: No, I'm pretty thoughtful about it.

463
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 7: I do believe when you're working out sets around town,

464
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 7: I believe that that's a sacred space and you should

465
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 7: be able to say whatever you want, half baked, thought out, whatever,

466
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 7: because we as artists deserve a place, a safe space

467
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 7: to develop our thoughts in full. I don't really talk

468
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 7: about my family. I've made fun of my mom a

469
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 7: little bit, and she's like, I didn't really say that.

470
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 7: I'm like, you did, You just don't remember, like when

471
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 7: you refer to John Krasinski as a Polish actor and

472
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 7: that did go in my special and so she's yeah,

473
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 7: and so no, there's no real heads up. And I'd

474
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 7: like to think that my husband and I know each

475
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 7: other well enough that I would never say anything that

476
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 7: paints him in a bad light, because when you are

477
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 7: a comic and you talk about your family, it's the

478
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,679
Speaker 7: reason I so far don't talk about my daughter people.

479
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 7: That is when we were talking about this earlier, about

480
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 7: like what people perceive about you, Like that's all they'll know.

481
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 7: So if I say my daughter was being a nightmare

482
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 7: the other day and I have a joke about it,

483
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 7: all you know is that my daughter's a nightmare.

484
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 5: And so it is.

485
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 7: You have to have this an intention about what you

486
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 7: put out there for yourself as well.

487
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 6: I think we see that too, probably, Yeah, sure, who's

488
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 6: your favorite? Like when you're out touring, Like, is there

489
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,120
Speaker 6: a favorite? Like we've done a little wine down out

490
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 6: and about tour, and you know, there's certain audiences that

491
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 6: are just more fun than others.

492
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 4: Is there a shout out to us?

493
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 6: Yeah?

494
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 5: A city?

495
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, or I guess whatever, whoever whoever just popped in

496
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 6: your brain when you made that.

497
00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 4: Look, that's who I want to know about.

498
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,479
Speaker 7: Oh, I have to do it by city, I mean,

499
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 7: because this is I can't really see their faces, so

500
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 7: I can't be like women with red hair. They always

501
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 7: show up and show out and they're always drunk. It's

502
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 7: always they do though, No, I'm just kidding, they do,

503
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 7: they do. I shot this Amazon special in Salt Lake

504
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 7: City because I played there.

505
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 5: On the last tour and I was blown away.

506
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 7: Salt Lake City is a city of not everyone's Mormon,

507
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 7: and I happen to really like Mormons, Like they just

508
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 7: are always so lovely and like happy because they all

509
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 7: have the good news.

510
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 5: But it's just a city of people.

511
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 7: Who don't drink, who are jacked up on sugar with

512
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 7: heavy creamer in it. Like this is before the real

513
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 7: house of Salt Lake City came around. Like I remember

514
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 7: playing Salt Lake City and on a Friday night, I

515
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 7: was like going to the venue and it's just like

516
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 7: Ford f two fifties wrapped around the block and just

517
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 7: jack dudes named Gunner getting eight leaders of like cherry

518
00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 7: soda with coconut coffee creamer, just like ready to laugh

519
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 7: for christ and the weekend. And they were just on fire.

520
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 7: And so I say, Salt Lake City, Washington, d C.

521
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 7: Is secretly an incredible comedy town because they work really

522
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 7: hard and they're smart and they just like need to

523
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 7: blow off steam and do blow.

524
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 5: And of course you have like Seattle and.

525
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 7: You have all those like big blue cities, but Charlotte, Raleigh.

526
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 5: Durham, they come to play. I kind of just don't

527
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 5: tour places that don't I don't feel great about.

528
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, well that makes sense.

529
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 6: I mean he wants to sign up to go be

530
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 6: away from your family, to have people stare at you.

531
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,640
Speaker 4: You're off on a new tour soon, right.

532
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 5: I'm glad this tour starts.

533
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 7: So there's a lot of little random shows, but this

534
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 7: Officials tour will start in the fall. It starts in Estonia,

535
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 7: as all great comedy tours do. People all the truth

536
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 7: is though people everywhere, everybody is the same, and people

537
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 7: all over the world want to laugh and people all

538
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 7: we all deal with the same problems and relationships and

539
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 7: personallynxieties and stuff like that, and people come out stand up.

540
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 5: Comedy is bigger than it's ever been.

541
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 7: And that's why I get to go to places like

542
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 7: Romania and find these people.

543
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 2: Oh can you find my appendix there? Because I had

544
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 2: my roommate, I had my appendings taken out in Romania.

545
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 5: That was you.

546
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 4: You saw that appending team through a meet and great,

547
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 4: why were you there?

548
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 2: I was filming a movie and I got really sick

549
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 2: and they were like, it needs you have to take

550
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: out your appendix. But it was really my gallbladder the

551
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 2: entire time, so they essentially took It's a really long story,

552
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 2: but yeah, so if you could, you know, give me

553
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 2: back my appendix when you go to Romania.

554
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 5: That'd be great. Were you terrified? Were you like? This

555
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 5: is yes?

556
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 2: And that was back in two thousand and three, I

557
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 2: want to say, or four, two or three or four.

558
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 2: I was there, so I mean, it's like it.

559
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 5: Was brand new to Romania. Like they just pretty like.

560
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 2: They had like needles on the ground. They were like

561
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 2: windows were cracked. I mean, I still have nightmares. And

562
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 2: there's like a certain smell that sometimes all smell like

563
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,919
Speaker 2: it's like it brings me back to that. I mean

564
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 2: it's no one spoke English. There's people were smoking cigarettes

565
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:06,159
Speaker 2: in the room. I mean it was like luckily I

566
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 2: had my own room, but it was one of these

567
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 2: scariest things ever.

568
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 5: Oh my, what did they give you to eat to recover?

569
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,919
Speaker 2: I don't even remember. I got a cottonneumonia. They were

570
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 2: about to give me a blood transfusion.

571
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 5: So I had to get what was the movie? This

572
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 5: had to be worth it? Well, this is what's funny.

573
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 2: So I got written off because it was a Return

574
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 2: of the Living Dead part four and five. I mean

575
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 2: it literally was like filming my own like horror movie

576
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 2: in Romania.

577
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 4: Off scenes.

578
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, so anyway, it's not about me, but back

579
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 2: to you.

580
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,119

00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 5: were taking out was wrong.

582
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 7: They sold that appendix like somewhere no one gets an

583
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 7: appendix put back in, but like someone ate it.

584
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,800

Speaker 5: Did you flip the out when you woke up?

590
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 7: Or maybe they didn't even put you on an maybe

591
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 7: they just gave you a goat to bite down on,

592
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 7: Like you wake up?

593
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 5: I really do you really?

594
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I just remember waking up and then

595
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 2: staying in there a lot longer than I was supposed to.

596
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,479
Speaker 5: You are being so cavalier about this.

597
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 7: Obviously this is like a while ago now, but I

598
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 7: would never stop telling this story.

599
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 5: You can take it.

600
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 4: You can.

601
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 5: You can use that. There you go.

Speaker 2: You can.

603
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 5: You can take my story and make it there you go.

604
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 7: It would be like Forrest comedian actress lost my appendix

605
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,680
Speaker 7: in weird Romanian backdoor surgery.

606
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,439

Speaker 2: a lot on the show, and we have, you know,

623
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 2: kids of all ages on this couch. But for you,

624
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 2: where do you have that like mom breakdown, cry moment.

625
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 5: Oh it is every day. No, it's.

626
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 7: I tend to get very misty eyed when I'm away

627
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 7: from I only ever talk about my daughter. I do

628
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 7: have a son, but because it's a little girl and

629
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 7: she was my first, I can hear. And this is

630
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 7: tough because traveling, you know, you got to be gone

631
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 7: for a while. Some times, around day three I start

632
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 7: to get very sad, like she doesn't know the amount

633
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 7: of times I've just like sat there teary eyed on

634
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 7: a plane, like just watching old videos, old pictures of her.

635
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 7: So it is the anticipation of leaving is hard. The

636
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 7: leaving is fine, but then after a few days missing

637
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 7: that so much, and then you get back and you're like, oh,

638
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 7: I need a break, but that and then, of course

639
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 7: if your moms you'll understand this. Just me constantly fantasizing

640
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 7: isn't the right word, but thinking of all the ways,

641
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 7: all the creative ways I could die, and all the

642
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 7: creative ways she could die, and how sad it'll be

643
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 7: at my funeral when she's there, but she's still little,

644
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 7: Like I go into like I build a whole world

645
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 7: where I've died.

646
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I mean same, we all we all do

647
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 2: that on the freeway on the way here.

648
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 6: Actually, I thought if that guy rolls over on me,

649
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 6: that semi truck, that would, yeah, the worst phone call,

650
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 6: and who would take care and pick him up from school?

651
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 4: I mean it's just really all the time.

652
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 5: Do you not have that?

653
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 4: I feel like you never how old?

654
00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 5: How old are the kids?

655
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 7: I'm sorry I don't know, Yeah, how old are your kids?

656
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 7: Ethan just turned one the day after my birthday, so

657
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 7: if every twenty third and see her just turned three

658
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 7: in January, So.

659
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 2: Those are sweet ages when all they are that's really sweet.

660
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, lovey, I mean yeah, it's.

661
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: To answer your question, I do if a situation happens,

662
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: like if the situation happens to me, and then I'm like, man,

663
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 1: had this gone like this, then what would I do

664
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: if I was but just driving down the street or

665
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: something like that. I usually just don't let my brain

666
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 1: kind of go to those ideas.

667
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 5: She's like, I have control over my well, I don't.

668
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: I have my own issues, but I don't really have

669
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: much of an anxious Like we try to.

670
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 6: Keep the ratio one healthy one to two spiral ers.

671
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 6: I am definitely unhealthy, just in very different ways.

672
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 5: How are you unhealthy?

673
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 3: I'm unhealthy because I like put up all the walls.

674
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 5: She's like, I have I I have ibs. Let's move

675
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 5: on right now.

676
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: No, No, it's we all have our issues, but I

677
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: just I'm not generally one that goes too far down

678
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: that rabbit hole unless something happens and I'm like, oh

679
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: my god, how did that happen?

680
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 4: Then blah blah blah blah blah. She's good at structure though,

681
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 4: she's like management, so that all tracks.

682
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 3: Right, it all tracks for us? Yeah, yeah, when okay?

683
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 2: So also relation relationships wise, how does your husband because

684
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 2: if you're traveling a lot, how is that an yall's relationship?

685
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 2: Is the re entry back in difficult because I know

686
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 2: that can be tricky at times.

687
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 7: I'll have to ask his girlfriend because like there's a

688
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 7: lot of.

689
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 2: No.

690
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 5: But there's like, you know, we work too.

691
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 7: We work hard so that our kids can have their

692
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 7: little ecosystem, right they have their nannies and they have

693
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 7: their bed, Like their nap times are sacred, like we

694
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 7: don't want to disrupt that. And so there's definitely Sierra

695
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 7: has the way she is with daddy. Like I walk

696
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 7: in in the morning and they're having a quiet breakfast

697
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 7: because he like rolled the oats and he makes the

698
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 7: special oatmeal and they're listening to like Leonard Cohen or

699
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 7: like Bob Dylan, something that boys like.

700
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 5: And I I'm like, mommy's a crab.

701
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 7: It's just like and she's like and so I'm definitely

702
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 7: more the dad energy and he's more than mom. Like

703
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 7: they have a very elegant sweet time and I'm like,

704
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 7: get on.

705
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 5: My back right into town.

706
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 7: So it's it's kind of I arrive and I disrupt it.

707
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 7: But I think she needs that at least I need.

708
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 6: That's what my husband would say, Yeah, yeah, disruptor, Yeah.

709
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 5: She needs a paint gun, a paintball gun.

710
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 6: I don't know, it's a super smart choice. At three,

711
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 6: who do you love watching comedian?

712
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 5: Wise?

713
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 7: I get that question a lot, and I can honestly

714
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 7: tell you I don't really watch a ton and that's

715
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 7: in a way that like it's hard to consume art

716
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 7: when you make that art.

717
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 5: I have found.

718
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 7: A joy recently and you know, all come in the

719
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 7: room if there's a comic on stage right before me,

720
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 7: and I'll listen, and you know, there's always like a

721
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 7: sweet camaraderie, like giving someone a tag. We did a

722
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 7: show called Eliza's Locals that's on Hulu where I pick

723
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 7: like fifteen comics and I give them each ten minutes.

724
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 5: So we got a season two that's going to be

725
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 5: we just shot it.

726
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 7: And so I've found a real love in watching younger comics.

727
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 7: And I don't always help them shape it, but giving

728
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 7: thoughts or just kind of getting seeing how much they

729
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 7: love it. And every time I see someone who's loving

730
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 7: it up there, it reminds me, not that I need reminding,

731
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 7: but I get more excited to go do it because

732
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 7: I think as comics are as performers, we forget that

733
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 7: it is truly about the work and like the act,

734
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 7: the actual joy that you feel in being on stage,

735
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 7: like it doesn't matter what you're going through, like your

736
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 7: redemption lies on the other side of that fifteen minute set, right,

737
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 7: almost always makes you feel better.

738
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just think it's so funny because mine like

739
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: when we watch because we watch a lot of comedy specials,

740
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 2: and my husband and I have very different comedic styles,

741
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 2: Like there's a I have a favorite comedian minus you,

742
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 2: of course, but like he's we're very different, Like I

743
00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,239
Speaker 2: don't really like his comedies person as much and he

744
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 2: doesn't love mine. So it's just different, like everyone has

745
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 2: like a different different tape.

746
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 5: Let me take a guess.

747
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 7: Your husband likes like a middle aged white male comic

748
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 7: and you probably maybe like that, but you tend to

749
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 7: like a girl or something that's a little bit more nuanced.

750
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 5: Right, No, but.

751
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 2: THEO, right, And he's not that I don't like THEO, Like,

752
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,479
Speaker 2: I think he's funny at times, but I'm I'm like

753
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 2: Sebastian Maniscalclo is my hands down, all time favorite. I

754
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 2: love how he uses his body like it's the way

755
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 2: he uses his face and his body, like I love them.

756
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 2: My husband doesn't like that piece of it. He's like,

757
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 2: I don't like how he does all that. I'm like,

758
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 2: that's what's so freaking funny.

759
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 5: Well, is your husband from the East Coast.

760
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 2: He's Scottish, that's fine. Yeah, But the Scottish comedian, though,

761
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 2: is really funny.

762
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, is so so painfully funny.

763
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 5: He's one of the comics that I'll just like go

764
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 5: back in the room.

765
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,959
Speaker 7: To watch because without saying anything, he's already got you laughing,

766
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 7: like he's his own thing.

767
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,959
Speaker 5: I love. I think he's so funny. It is.

768
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 7: I think also like if you're American, like my family's

769
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 7: from the East Coast, you don't have and he's from Chicago,

770
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 7: but like you don't have to be that, but like

771
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 7: knowing Italian Americans like that.

772
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 5: Whole and he's so disgusted what you said. It's open now,

773
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 5: why isn't it open?

774
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 7: I it reminds me of people that I know, even

775
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 7: though he's so unique, so I can there is a

776
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 7: point of reference as an American for him in the

777
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 7: way that if you're like Scottish, you might not have

778
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 7: that not saying he can't play uh Edinburgh.

779
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 5: But right, I do find I've just heard this.

780
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 7: Like a lot of women will come up to me

781
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,919
Speaker 7: and this always breaks my heart a little bit after

782
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 7: a show and they'll be like, you're the first comedy

783
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 7: show I've ever seen, or they'll say I don't really

784
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 7: like stand up, but I love that, and I'm like,

785
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 7: that's right. You don't like stand up because it is

786
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 7: inherently a male dominated art form.

787
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 5: So it's not that you don't.

788
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 7: Like it, it's that you've been exposed to mostly men who,

789
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 7: perhaps in the past, for the most part, their jokes

790
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 7: are like they're misogynists, or it's always a little bit

791
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 7: angry toward women, or it's about them jerking all for

792
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 7: it's just.

793
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 5: About like guy centric stuff through a male lens.

794
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,439
Speaker 7: Not that women can't talk about masterine, but it's always

795
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 7: presented through a male lens, which is fine and it

796
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 7: is funny, but after an hour as a woman, you're

797
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 7: just like, okay, but where am I identifying with this?

798
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 5: So when women don't like stand up, this thing.

799
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 7: Like women aren't funny, that's insane and it's only born

800
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 7: out of men saying it.

801
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,359
Speaker 5: Because I promise you women, weren't we just propagate it?

802
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 2: Well, I think guys would be like, but girls only

803
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 2: talk about pussy and stuff like that.

804
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 7: Which is also a dated thing because I mean, I

805
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 7: think we have enough women that do it to show

806
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 7: like I've literally I don't think I've ever said that

807
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 7: word on stage, and we definitely have enough women talking

808
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 7: about other textured subjects.

809
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 2: I feel like now though, because back in the day,

810
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 2: like there was a comedian who now is huge, but

811
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 2: she talked about it all the time, which made me

812
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 2: not love. So I associated that with female comedians because

813
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 2: I felt it because it's your samples is just the one, right,

814
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 2: And so then I didn't expand to watch others. Now

815
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 2: I believe that comedian has grown and she's you know, great,

816
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 2: and I love watching her stuff now. But now it

817
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,959
Speaker 2: has opened me to want to see, you know, watch

818
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 2: your specials, do other things like that, because it's not

819
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 2: just about that you're you're broadening it to them, just

820
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 2: not hearing about the vagina every time.

821
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 5: I think too.

822
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 7: While it is not the way that I choose to speak,

823
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 7: I do think we as women and I'm not this

824
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,879
Speaker 7: is not about assigning blame to you, but I think

825
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 7: we all do this. When you are of a minority,

826
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 7: whatever that minority is, you represent that entire group.

827
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 5: Right, So when I'm a woman and.

828
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 7: I fuck up at work, it's like, right, because women,

829
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 7: you know are if I cry at work, right, it's

830
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 7: because women are emotional. And we have that one woman

831
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 7: here and she did that. We have the one black

832
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 7: guy here who was late, so therefore that's right, that's

833
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 7: what we think, Right, we have the one Asian guy

834
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 7: who was good at my own because there's always good

835
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 7: at that, there's always the representation of that one. So

836
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 7: when you're ample size is bigger, Like if I said

837
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 7: all white men are rapists, you'd be like, there's a

838
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 7: lot of white men who don't, because we have this

839
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,719
Speaker 7: ample size to show, we have the data points to

840
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 7: show that that's not true. But if you only knew

841
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 7: one white guy and he rapes someone, that is your

842
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 7: thinking of it. So when you are I mean, I'm Jewish,

843
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 7: and so it's always like, well, don't all Jews do this?

844
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,279
Speaker 7: And if I did that, like when Bernie made off

845
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 7: over all those people, all Jews were like, oh no,

846
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,919
Speaker 7: like there's only like ten of us, and this guy

847
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 7: did that. There's always that cringe at the representation. So

848
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 7: the more women that do it, the more we realize

849
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 7: women can speak about normal, difficult things, and we don't

850
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 7: think about that with men. We don't think all male

851
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 7: comics only make dick jokes.

852
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 5: I mean it's a lot of them, right, a lot

853
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 5: of them, And.

854
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 7: So that's just I mean, that's the internetification also of

855
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 7: stand up is that, like, there's so much out there

856
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 7: you can go find exactly your weird personality type and

857
00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,040
Speaker 7: find the exact comic talking about that that represents you

858
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 7: or whatever profile you have, your clear Vietnamese immigrant, bisexual,

859
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 7: you know, family that rents cats. You're like, there's a

860
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 7: comic talking about that, like, because there's enough of them

861
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,920
Speaker 7: doing it right, right.
