Speaker 1: what you were having.
Speaker 2: Oh you know, I'd like a little savory, little sweet now.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I was doing like an eggs benedict because
Speaker 2: I love anything that's like two thousand calories, followed by
Speaker 2: a lemon ricotta pancake. Started off with the bloody Mary
Speaker 2: that had like a rocho three chicken in it, and
Speaker 2: then just Bellini Bellini, Bellini, Blini, Bellini, I barely know her,
Speaker 2: and then definitely ended on in espresso Martini because I
Speaker 2: gotta drive home.
Speaker 3: I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm
Speaker 3: sure this is all fake, a fake.

Speaker 2: I think I have to skip naps. They're three and
Speaker 2: a half. When do we skip naps for toddlers? They
Speaker 2: don't fall asleep till ten and they wake up at six.
Speaker 3: When did you nap? When did you stop napping?
Speaker 1: Your kids napping stopped at about four? About four?
Speaker 3: Okay, we did?
Speaker 1: We did? Did they take their one? They took two
Speaker 1: naps and then they kind of like converged that into
Speaker 1: one big nap and then that just stopped all together. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you get your time back a little bit, you know,
Speaker 1: because it's like when they nap, you can't leave the house.
Speaker 1: You gotta like kind of stay, you know.
Speaker 3: I remember one time you and your family came to
Speaker 3: my house and you were in the car for like
Speaker 3: an hour.
Speaker 1: Absolutely we do.
Speaker 3: And your wife was like, our son's napping, he got
Speaker 3: to stay in that car.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Yeah, that's just how it goes and I'm
Speaker 2: just so glad you stayed in the car because sometimes
Speaker 2: you hang with people they're like, I.
Speaker 3: Hey, yeah, any outside chilling.
Speaker 2: It's very European just to like leave your kids outside
Speaker 2: in a stroller or something. I'm like, do you want
Speaker 2: to go? You never saw the movie with the dingo?
Speaker 2: We gotta go make sure up.
Speaker 1: Isn't that like a thing in Norway where they just
Speaker 1: like leave the kids in the strollers or something like that.
Speaker 2: It's really all over Europe, really mostly northern but yes, yeah, wow,
Speaker 2: that's not you know, it's such a crazy way to
Speaker 2: grow up to like not only trusting people, but also
Speaker 2: your environment. You know, like even if I sit on
Speaker 2: a patio outside for sure in Brooklyn, I'm like, they're roaches, ants,
Speaker 2: anything else?
Speaker 3: A beatle can get into my purse?
Speaker 5: What to do?
Speaker 3: What's up here? A big spider web?
Speaker 1: What is that?
Speaker 5: Is that?
Speaker 3: West Nile in the east?
Speaker 2: Like, you know, like I go to a hotel and
Speaker 2: I'm like, what's behind the sheet, what's on top of
Speaker 2: the headboard? Any ticks? Anything I gotta worry about. Let's
Speaker 2: see what's you know under the bed? Do you ever
Speaker 2: check under the bed at the hotel.
Speaker 1: I never check under the bed at the hotel.
Speaker 3: No, never under the bed.
Speaker 1: You want to check under the bed at the hotel.
Speaker 3: It's a new movie directed by Jordan Peele.
Speaker 1: Under the Bed. Why in the sealy apostrophedic? What I'd
Speaker 1: check under the bed? The bed is fine? Why am I?
Speaker 1: I'm the one it's gonna happen to me?
Speaker 2: Seely all those mattresses would be purple, that'd be amazing.
Speaker 1: Therefore, it's just not gonna I just don't think it's
Speaker 1: gonna happen to me. I've only had a couple of
Speaker 1: weird things happen to me at hotels, and one of
Speaker 1: them was somebody wipe their booty with a towel and
Speaker 1: then left the towel on the rack.
Speaker 2: I know that you are so uncomfortable and grossed out
Speaker 2: by this because you sang it when you said it, yeah,
Speaker 2: whenever you whenever you put a voice on it, And
Speaker 2: I'm like, uh oh, it was real.
Speaker 1: Why would I be comfortable with that? Why would I
Speaker 1: be comfortable with people wiping their ass.
Speaker 2: On a No, you don't have to be comfortable, but
Speaker 2: you're just not even comfortable saying it, which is hilarious, terrible,
Speaker 2: that's so gross. And some people don't They just all
Speaker 2: willy nilly put their faces in a hotel towel.
Speaker 3: That shit has been all over someone's semen and poo poo.
Speaker 1: Well that was the thing.
Speaker 3: Sorry, that the thing.
Speaker 1: The rags don't do it, that was the thing. The
Speaker 1: problem was this. It wasn't that the Dodo was fresh.
Speaker 1: Do you understand? It was it was the DoD who
Speaker 1: had been like washed and dried and was on the rat.
Speaker 1: Do you see what I'm saying, Like the shroud of
Speaker 1: torrent Like it was just like kind of like a
Speaker 1: rosa test of doo doo was on the rack and
Speaker 1: I was like, gonna dry my he.
Speaker 3: Literally, yes, yeah, yes, yes.
Speaker 2: It's like that Dodo is the Republicans in the Supreme Court,
Speaker 2: and no matter how much we try to wash and vote,
Speaker 2: it still keeps popping up. Sorry everyone, also not sorry,
Speaker 2: that's wild.
Speaker 1: The worst part was the manager at the hotel was like,
Speaker 1: did you do this? And I was like, did I do?
Speaker 1: I just checked in, how did I do this? Do
Speaker 1: I bring? Do I bring these towels with me?
Speaker 3: So that's not the follow up question.
Speaker 2: That's not the follow up question, sir, I don't know
Speaker 2: if you ever went to school for hotel and hospitality management.
Speaker 3: That's not the follow up question.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 1: The funny part was the funniest part was we were
Speaker 1: this was in Mississippi, and so my brother got all
Speaker 1: up in this guy's crawl and then we got the
Speaker 1: miss we got the presidential suite. What the funny? My man?
Speaker 1: My brother was like, oh, when is the president coming here?

Speaker 2: Because there's nothing there's nothing better in sweeter than like,
Speaker 2: you know, I'm forty five now I can fully say
Speaker 2: I am middle aged. I hope I get to ninety.
Speaker 2: And the fact that my dad is like he's still
Speaker 2: kicking it. And I've always heard stories from my friends
Speaker 2: who are like, we're taking the kids over to my parents,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, what.
Speaker 4: Is that like?
Speaker 2: Because I'm at the very special age where I kind
Speaker 2: of take care of my parents and take care of
Speaker 2: my kids.
Speaker 3: But it's so nice to for some.
Speaker 2: Reason, when they are all under one roof, all the
Speaker 2: drama is canceled out and we're just having fun, right,
Speaker 2: And it's a lot of finger food, and it's a
Speaker 2: lot of stories I don't understand from parents and kids,
Speaker 2: and it's really fun and we're making memories. And I
Speaker 2: didn't know because I've always been like beholden to their schedule.
Speaker 2: Now they're like online, so it's dope.
Speaker 1: Did you grow up in a multi generational household or
Speaker 1: was it just you and your parents or were your grandparents.
Speaker 3: There or I did? And I remember my great grandma.
Speaker 2: It was this little Indian Jamaican lady who learned how
Speaker 2: to smoke a cigarette in her mouth because it was
Speaker 2: illegal for women to smoke cigarettes in public.
Speaker 1: Whoa.
Speaker 2: She was a spitfire and her name was Hazel h Oh.
Speaker 2: She used to eat the spiciest food and then just
Speaker 2: like had our own box of vanilla ice cream.
Speaker 3: She was amazing.
Speaker 2: So I knew my great grandma, my grandma, and it
Speaker 2: was fun. Yeah, but we had to go to Jamaica
Speaker 2: to see them. They wouldn't come here.
Speaker 3: They couldn't.
Speaker 1: Okay, So so you didn't live under one roof?
Speaker 3: Then we didn't live under Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think there's something to that. Yeah, I think there's
Speaker 1: something to that to live under one roof with your grandparents.
Speaker 1: I did it for a little while in my life,
Speaker 1: and it was it was eye opening. It was definitely
Speaker 1: eye opening to see that your mother is also like
Speaker 1: a daughter and you know, yeah, it was my mom
Speaker 1: took care of my grandmother. My grandmother had Alzheimer's and dementia,
Speaker 1: which was which was rough, but there were moments, especially
Speaker 1: when we go to church and she remembered that the
Speaker 1: hymns and the songs where I could almost see inklings
Speaker 1: of like how it used to be between them, that yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was that was really special and and that's so dope.
Speaker 1: And just to see the love that my mom had
Speaker 1: for my grandma, that just you know, resonated, like you
Speaker 1: want your kids at the end to take care of you, geez, Louise,
Speaker 1: I mean yea hope, yeah, or.
Speaker 2: At least like you, Like my parents are very responsible
Speaker 2: and have already set up accommodations for whatever kind of
Speaker 2: housing or nursing, the nurses that they might need, you need,
Speaker 2: and even like funeral stuff, because the last thing you
Speaker 2: want to do is be so sad that you can't
Speaker 2: make decisions. And I do feel like any time you're
Speaker 2: in a vulnerable position, people do take advantage of it.
Speaker 2: I mean, I remember when I was getting married, everybody
Speaker 2: was trying to upsell us, like we it was our
Speaker 2: first time at Chiffilub, and I'm like, what the fuck?
Speaker 2: And in case is so European and Dutch and cheap
Speaker 2: and all the those things. And he was like, we
Speaker 2: don't need this, we don't need that, we don't need this,
Speaker 2: we don't need that. And I was like, right on,
Speaker 2: I guess not, but I feel like we need it,
Speaker 2: you know, if we're gonna make a special uh. And
Speaker 2: that's such an American way to go about shit, which sucks. Anyways,
Speaker 2: the point is do you have a will?
Speaker 3: I know, what is the point? Do you have a will?
Speaker 5: Do?
Speaker 1: All that's to say? Do you have a will? I
Speaker 1: guess that's I mean, that's what we have to think
Speaker 1: about when we get into our forties. I don't have
Speaker 1: a living trust in or a living will. I do
Speaker 1: need one, though.
Speaker 3: I had a will since my twenties.
Speaker 1: You've had a will since your twenties, well you need
Speaker 1: to update that.
Speaker 3: I have, but like my first will was in my twenties.
Speaker 2: I went to Spain for a month and my mom's like,
Speaker 2: you should have a will, and I'm like, that's the
Speaker 2: follow what not like have fun or make sure that
Speaker 2: you take pictures, just have a will.
Speaker 3: That's where my parents are.
Speaker 1: Well, I've been married fifteen years now, so that's that's
Speaker 1: I think that isn't that the first Year's paper, and
Speaker 1: then the fifteenth is the living trust and will, and
Speaker 1: then the sixteenth is definitely headstones. You need to think
Speaker 1: about how it's gonna end. It's wild. I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of like, I'm scared. I'm so scared, Michelle. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the big punch out, man, I know, you know, somebody,
Speaker 1: just somebody upstairs just turns off the power and then
Speaker 1: you're just like, oh, dude, that's so. I know.
Speaker 3: That's why I really tried it.
Speaker 2: And I always say this, and I say it out
Speaker 2: loud mostly for me, but not be too stressed. Still
Speaker 2: have fun even if it's traffic, because I'm still here,
Speaker 2: even if it's.
Speaker 1: Like, well for sure, even if it's over tomorrow. Like
Speaker 1: I love that that point of view.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just never really.
Speaker 2: The minute the kids were born, I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: I can never die because I can't imagine a day
Speaker 2: without knowing how they are and then me not being
Speaker 2: there for them. So I love all those like the
Speaker 2: rom coms and like the movies were like parents le
Speaker 2: videos and shit like that's real.
Speaker 1: Do that if you can, Oh, yeah, you know you're
Speaker 1: gonna go or no.
Speaker 3: But even if you don't know, you, we all know
Speaker 3: we're gonna.
Speaker 1: Go right right, right, right right. Well, I mean I
Speaker 1: think it's it's like, you know, I'm up in the
Speaker 1: International Space Station right We've lost power. The other shuttles
Speaker 1: can't get to me, and I've got to like send
Speaker 1: that kind of you know, armageddon message to the wife

Speaker 3: a party.
Speaker 2: That's one thing I really love about New Orleans and
Speaker 2: Louisiana in general. It really feels like I love states
Speaker 2: that feel like they're their own country, but especially New Orleans.
Speaker 3: Like your send off for funeral is just like fuck.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a celebration of life, right, that's what That's
Speaker 1: what it is in New Orleans. I know my auntie,
Speaker 1: she had a funeral in New Orleans and it was
Speaker 1: a beautiful celebration of life. And you say, and most
Speaker 1: people they wear white there, which is the Africa the
Speaker 1: West African tradition of wearing white and death, which is
Speaker 1: which is beautiful and one. No, it's it's just another
Speaker 1: Caribbean connection and Caribbean African connection that that New Orleans
Speaker 1: has that the rest of the country is just like
Speaker 1: deaf too. Yeah, baby, it's beautiful. Yeah, it's really beautiful.
Speaker 3: This took a turn. I didn't mean it to get
Speaker 3: so dark.
Speaker 1: It didn't know it's it's it's all good lights.
Speaker 3: Depending on how you look at it.
Speaker 1: It's it's all good. I was just gonna say, I've
Speaker 1: gotten to that age where like, oh, this is how
Speaker 1: I knew I was old. I got like a new
Speaker 1: scent of hand soap, and that really really blew my
Speaker 1: hair back. The verbina. I never had lemon verbina.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm a big citrus person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know what's up. But like I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, that was the most exciting thing that
Speaker 1: had happened to me that day.
Speaker 3: I think when your hands and your fingers smell good,
Speaker 3: that is exciting.
Speaker 1: It is, you know.
Speaker 3: I think it's the little things. And also like a
Speaker 3: good ass clean ear.
Speaker 1: Mmm, oh, don't put a Q tip in there now.
Speaker 2: Look, I get like the Q tips that have like
Speaker 2: a shut, pointy edge, so I get in, you get yes,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: But cleaning the kid's ears, they love it as much
Speaker 3: as I do.
Speaker 2: Like their little legs starts to shake like you're pitting
Speaker 2: the dog in the right place and shit, and I'm
Speaker 2: just like, yes, we're doing it.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 3: Nooks and crannies. Oh looks, let's move on. So excited
Speaker 3: about our guests this episode.
Speaker 2: Hopefully she has way more classy stories than what we
Speaker 2: just shared. O. God, I don't think I've had the
Speaker 2: opportunity to work with her, but I've heard amazing things
Speaker 2: about her.
Speaker 1: You have, yes, I have. We work together on Everything's Trash.
Speaker 1: We can get into what she did exactly on the
Speaker 1: show momentarily.
Speaker 2: Yes, she's a stand up comedian, she's a writer, she's
Speaker 2: also an actor.
Speaker 1: Please help us.
Speaker 4: Welcome Chanel Ali, Chanelle Ali. Oh, okay, you did it,
Speaker 4: Hiel Ali?
Speaker 1: What's up?
Speaker 5: Hey, it's so good to be here.
Speaker 1: First of all, we are actually former co workers. You
Speaker 1: could say that me and Chanell worked together on Everything Trash.
Speaker 1: You had a very unique job. You were Phoebe Robbinson,
Speaker 1: the star of the show, her stand in, So you
Speaker 1: were there on set literally more than I was. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you were working fourteen hour days a lot, and you
Speaker 1: were wearing wigs a lot of them as well.
Speaker 2: So a stand in, if y'all don't know, it's a
Speaker 2: genius idea because a lot of it, especially in the
Speaker 2: Black Show, and a lot of the beauty depends on lighting,
Speaker 2: and so you have to light the scene and know
Speaker 2: where the actor is going to be moving so it
Speaker 2: doesn't look crazy. And there's shadows on your face unless
Speaker 2: it's intentional. And so when you're done filming, the actor
Speaker 2: will go off and like rest their titties, pick a wedgie,
Speaker 2: get some water, coffee ten one, yeah, more like ten fun.
Speaker 2: That's industry for Pee Peepe and Little Peepe Dance. I
Speaker 2: just wear an adult diaper and keep it moving, bitches.
Speaker 2: I'm efficient. Just kidding, that's discussing. Although I did try
Speaker 2: one for a flight to England.
Speaker 3: It really was said. It really reminded me of my grandma.
Speaker 3: It was just a smell.
Speaker 1: Wow, what is Yeah, like that's only like seven hours
Speaker 1: when there's bathroom.
Speaker 3: We'll get into it another time. Channel. This is really
Speaker 3: fun so far.
Speaker 1: But the point is this is the show. This is
Speaker 1: the show.
Speaker 2: It's called so the actors, the main actors are called
Speaker 2: first team, and then the stand ins are called second team.
Speaker 2: So yeah, you're constantly hearing second team, and so you
Speaker 2: have to go stand Oh my god, love. Actually maybe
Speaker 2: this is the reference you remember love Actually, like there's
Speaker 2: a couple that met because they were stand in.
Speaker 1: But.
Speaker 2: They always simulate like a blow job or like fucking
Speaker 2: through the back.
Speaker 3: But anyway, was this the first time that you were
Speaker 3: a stand in a second teamer.
Speaker 5: No, it wasn't. But it was my first time being
Speaker 5: the stand in for like the number one, like the
Speaker 5: the main actress, which, like like Jordan said, obviously she's
Speaker 5: in most of the scenes and she changes her hair
Speaker 5: and her outfits a lot, but I was also her
Speaker 5: photo double for certain scenes. So I if you watched
Speaker 5: the show, I am in it, but you you think
Speaker 5: it's Phoebe.
Speaker 6: You don't even know that.
Speaker 5: It's me, right, Yeah, absolutely, And I got to I
Speaker 5: did one scene or they just drove me around in
Speaker 5: a cab and I was getting in and out of
Speaker 5: a cab.
Speaker 6: They're just filming her getting in and out of a
Speaker 6: cab for.
Speaker 5: Some sequence, and people kept trying to get in the cab,
Speaker 5: thinking that like I was accident so they could get
Speaker 5: and I'm like stopping people, like, hey, it's not a
Speaker 5: real cab.
Speaker 3: A cab in New York's a hot commodity.
Speaker 5: None of this is real. This is all off asade.
Speaker 5: Get out of here, man, help yourself. But yeah, it
Speaker 5: was a great experience, and I feel like it was
Speaker 5: really hands on acting experience, you know, because.
Speaker 3: I had to run the line yemmy yummy yummy.
Speaker 5: I had to hit the marks, you know, I was
Speaker 5: doing it.
Speaker 3: That's great.
Speaker 2: If you're gonna spend that much time on saying, you
Speaker 2: better be getting a master class in like what the
Speaker 2: fuck is that?
Speaker 5: Totally period?
Speaker 2: Now we're not so basic question sort of like the
Speaker 2: couple in love actually that met and like ended up
Speaker 2: like living happily ever after as stand ins together.
Speaker 3: Have you ever met somebody on set standing?
Speaker 6: I mean yeah, but like we never like hung out afterwards.
Speaker 5: But even on this show, there was a scene where
Speaker 5: Phoebe is about to have a sex scene with this
Speaker 5: guy and I was her stand in, so like they
Speaker 5: had the sex coordinator come in and tell me, like, hey,
Speaker 5: you don't have to like touch yourself, and I was like, hey,
Speaker 5: don't tell me.
Speaker 6: You don't have to tell me. I'll touch I touch
Speaker 6: myself if I want to, you know, and I don't
Speaker 6: need anybody.
Speaker 3: But we did have we were sod to light this honey,
Speaker 3: flick flick light.
Speaker 5: I'm trying to get the experience you want to shot, but.
Speaker 1: We got to.
Speaker 3: Normalize these titty that's right, that's right.
Speaker 5: But there was a really cute guy who was also
Speaker 5: the male stand in, and they wanted us to kiss,
Speaker 5: and the camera guy was like, can.
Speaker 6: You guys do He was like, can you guys do
Speaker 6: the kiss real quick? And then he just like went
Speaker 6: back by the camera and we both were like yes,
Speaker 6: and we didn't move. We just didn't move because we.
Speaker 5: Were both so can. We just stood there and like row.
Speaker 5: It was the whole time I could say they ever
Speaker 5: told something and I didn't do it. It's not that
Speaker 5: I didn't want to, but being ordered to do it
Speaker 5: made it feel so awkward that we both were like,
Speaker 5: there's no time for consent, you know.
Speaker 1: Oh that's what the intimacy coordinators for.
Speaker 3: Oh, please give me a break.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Wow, I didn't. I didn't know the drama behind it all.
Speaker 3: Are you single, chan?

Speaker 2: See.
Speaker 5: I always fall for boom guys. I don't know if
Speaker 5: you have that problem on set. I love boom guys.
Speaker 2: They're so quiet, quiet, and usually tall and listening and sensitive.
Speaker 6: They have strong arms and good boots.
Speaker 5: I just always The other day the other day, I
Speaker 5: was on set for something and they had a boom lady.
Speaker 5: I'd never seen a boom lady before and honestly didn't
Speaker 5: hit the same for me.
Speaker 1: Didn't hit this not into the boom ladies.
Speaker 5: Wasn't in the boom lady. If anything, I was a
Speaker 5: little angry, like, Hey, when's the boom guy gonna come in?
Speaker 1: Good question? Great? You know, Michelle, the expression of your
Speaker 1: face is very interesting.
Speaker 3: Wait, let's get back into Chanelle's love life.
Speaker 2: Have you ever had a very casual hookup with someone
Speaker 2: a comedian, someone on set that you had to go see,
Speaker 2: like another time that I had.
Speaker 6: To go see another time, like awkwardly, like I ran and.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like, oh we're working together now? Whips.
Speaker 5: Not really, I mean, but I do. I do remember
Speaker 5: one time coming to a comedy show and this guy
Speaker 5: that I had like had a hook up with one
Speaker 5: time was backstage and I was shocked to see him
Speaker 5: because he wasn't a comedian. He was like a musician.
Speaker 5: So I walked in. I was like, Hey, what are
Speaker 5: you doing here? And he was like, oh, I didn't
Speaker 5: know you were on this show. I'm actually dating her.
Speaker 5: And he pointed to this other lady comedian.
Speaker 3: Did she look like you?
Speaker 5: No, she doesn't look like me at all. But I
Speaker 5: was like, I'm happy for y'all. You know, I didn't
Speaker 5: have like feelings for him. But in the same breath,
Speaker 5: I was kind of like, oh, so, now you and
Speaker 5: I both have this guy in our rolodex, and that's cool.
Speaker 6: Bring him to more shows. It's a family affair.
Speaker 2: I follow up question and like, I'm so sorry if
Speaker 2: I'm prying, let a bitch know. But this is exciting
Speaker 2: because you know, I don't have a lot of single
Speaker 2: friends that are happy.
Speaker 3: You look happy, and this is fun for me. What
Speaker 3: do you consider hooking up?
Speaker 5: I think hooking up is kissing. I think it's sex
Speaker 5: in any form. I think it's.
Speaker 6: Anything that you would do beyond hugging.
Speaker 1: Is hooking up interesting?
Speaker 5: You know, we hooked up, we hooked up, we hooked up.
Speaker 6: We you know, there's levels to it, Like we really
Speaker 6: hooked up.
Speaker 5: You know, we were still hooked.
Speaker 2: But you know, I feel like for me, hooking up
Speaker 2: is penetration, whether it's with like your fingers as something else.
Speaker 2: But if it's just like he kissed my titty and
Speaker 2: kissed my neck, that's not really hooking up. He's just
Speaker 2: you know, that's just like a little appetizer titty in
Speaker 2: the mouth.
Speaker 5: That's your son, that's your child.
Speaker 3: What's up?
Speaker 1: That's your child? She said, titty in the mouth, Oh,
Speaker 1: titty in the mouth. A good latch, A good latch
Speaker 1: on the on the on the nip. Yes, I believe. Well,
Speaker 1: I believe that hooking up as to involve the drawing
Speaker 1: of the nude form after you're done making love to them.
Speaker 1: Well you have to like like Jack and Titanic.
Speaker 3: Thank you Jack, Yeah, thank you Jack.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no problem.
Speaker 6: Romance.
Speaker 5: Romance is different now now guys do it on an iPad.
Speaker 5: They don't even have the pen and the paper.
Speaker 3: Yeah, now they just have like a like an avatar.
Speaker 1: That's all the sketch.
Speaker 3: What do you consider what do you consider a good date?
Speaker 2: Because between New York City always having a dope as
Speaker 2: show to go to or do, what do you consider
Speaker 2: a good date?
Speaker 3: Because your time is precious?
Speaker 5: It's so precious, honestly, Honestly, I think in the last
Speaker 5: two years especially, dates really have come to like are
Speaker 5: we outside doing something? You know, Like that's that's really
Speaker 5: kind of the the level that you have to clear.
Speaker 5: But I had a great date where this guy took
Speaker 5: me to like a petting zoo and we fed a
Speaker 5: bunch of animals and they have this big choy pon
Speaker 5: like it was an enormous coy pod. I couldn't even
Speaker 5: I mean, like thousands. Imagine all the fishery ver seen.
Speaker 5: They're all in this coipon and.
Speaker 6: We're feeding them and they're just they know what they're
Speaker 6: there for.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 6: It just was a vibe and a good energy.
Speaker 5: And then we went to like this mirror maze escape
Speaker 5: thing that we did together that was like half outside
Speaker 5: half inside, and I just felt like the whole day
Speaker 5: we did activities like that and kind of experienced it
Speaker 5: together in this beautiful, you know, safe way. I don't know,
Speaker 5: I just had such a great time. It made me
Speaker 5: feel better than some of the fancy estates I've gone
Speaker 5: in in New York City where a guy sends a
Speaker 5: car and it takes me somewhere fancy, and I'm like,
Speaker 5: this is this We're in a forty forty club by ourselves.
Speaker 3: Do is just sending cars? Okay? I didn't know? This
Speaker 3: is pretty woman. That is amazing.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's uber.
Speaker 2: So I feel like people forget that being thoughtful counts
Speaker 2: for a lot. Whatever you have in your bank account,
Speaker 2: it's more attractive for me at least that you're thoughtful
Speaker 2: and ambitious. Please don't be lazy. Please be passionate about something.
Speaker 2: I won't give a fuck what it is, just like
Speaker 2: something I.
Speaker 5: Was really appreciate when someone recognizes what effort I've had
Speaker 5: to put forward, Like, Hey, I know you spent an
Speaker 5: hour and twenty minutes on the train to get here.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna make sure that you know you get to
Speaker 5: take a car home and that you get to whatever.
Speaker 5: Like I appreciate someone noticing, like I can see that
Speaker 5: you've put some effort into getting here. Let me help you.
Speaker 1: Can I ask you a question? Though, I feel as
Speaker 1: though Chanel, like from your videos and everything like that,
Speaker 1: which I love. I love your videos. When you do
Speaker 1: like this is the day in the life of a
Speaker 1: comedian to me, I feel like that's your passion, Like
Speaker 1: that's your concern and your passion, and it's not to
Speaker 1: quote a nineties movie title, but alas are on the side.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree, and I think that really, Like I
Speaker 5: birth this this vlogging series that I have on TikTok
Speaker 5: and on Instagram where I take people with me a
Speaker 5: day in the life of comedian type vibe. I feel
Speaker 5: like that came about because I was feeling avoid in
Speaker 5: dating civically and that I got tired of telling men
Speaker 5: about my gigs and.
Speaker 6: Them not being hype enough.
Speaker 5: Like I'm telling you I just did this incredible comedy
Speaker 5: show with like comedians we've been watching on be et
Speaker 5: since we're a little and they're.
Speaker 6: Like, cool, Chanel, you want to go see this movie?
Speaker 5: And I'm like, you know what, I'm going to tell
Speaker 5: people online and they're gonna be hype, and also I'm
Speaker 5: going to find more guys who are hype. And it
Speaker 5: really kind of filled that void of like some days
Speaker 5: I do incredible things in my life and I come
Speaker 5: home and I don't always have someone to share it with. Well,
Speaker 5: I'm going to share it with a bunch of people,
Speaker 5: and I'm going to find a community and maybe maybe
Speaker 5: some boys, maybe not who who think this is dope
Speaker 5: and can you know, appreciate it?
Speaker 1: I really appreciate it.
Speaker 2: That sounds like a very healthy meal plan for Internet,
Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? Where it's like you
Speaker 2: decide on your own record that you want to share
Speaker 2: it because you know it's dope, Like you're not looking
Speaker 2: for what's the word I'm looking for?
Speaker 1: You're not looking for like approval and acknowledgment from just
Speaker 1: like so much tired.
Speaker 3: Mom, this is like a game of celebrity. I'm like,
Speaker 3: I gotcha, Jordan.
Speaker 1: I'm right here. I'm right here with you. Okay. I'm
Speaker 1: your understudy on these moments.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 3: So here's he's my stand in.
Speaker 1: I'm your standing okay. So because you were doing it,
Speaker 1: but you were doing stand up like in kind of
Speaker 1: Wild Times though too, like twenty twenty one, you would
Speaker 1: go out and I honestly was like watching you go out.
Speaker 1: I was like, damn, Shanelle Lee is risking it all.
Speaker 1: You're just.
Speaker 5: Fifteen during I mean, I wow. I was getting tested
Speaker 5: no lie, like four times a week every week for months.
Speaker 5: I was just doing whatever I could, also like taking precautions.
Speaker 5: But I felt like, you know, really obligated to keep
Speaker 5: telling jokes, to keep making people laugh, and then also
Speaker 5: to like, you know, live.
Speaker 1: I was just like, this is my job.
Speaker 5: I don't I'm not gonna I'm not gonna go do
Speaker 5: another thing like this is it? You know. But those
Speaker 5: were really cool experiences and it really showed me that like,
Speaker 5: comedy is gonna live no matter what.
Speaker 6: We could close every basement in New York City, which
Speaker 6: they did for a while.
Speaker 5: We're gonna go on the rooftops in the parks and
Speaker 5: we're gonna go in backyards like we're gonna figure it out.
Speaker 6: I was doing fancy penthouse apartment shows.
Speaker 1: Yes, stretched us and we did. I did like a
Speaker 1: salon or something like that, or a boutique. It was.
Speaker 1: It was wild.
Speaker 3: Did y'all do the parking lot shows?
Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, and queens and I'm.
Speaker 3: Sure our listeners know.
Speaker 2: In early quarantine, which we consider deep quarantine, you know,
Speaker 2: it was deep at first, like we were like Lady
Speaker 2: Got got stars born on the deep end and people
Speaker 2: would be in their car and then you would perform
Speaker 2: on a race platform hopefully yeahm or a truck sometimes
Speaker 2: flatbed truck.
Speaker 3: What and a time to kill is going on?
Speaker 1: What they blink the lights?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they would blink the lights, honk the horn if
Speaker 2: they liked what you said. How did that make you feel?
Speaker 3: It's great?
Speaker 1: When I get the lights blinking. That was amaze. And
Speaker 1: then I remember this one sister she did her windshow
Speaker 1: wipers was that's like really wow? That was like I
Speaker 1: was like, a all right, that's that's when you know
Speaker 1: you're doing well. But the parking lot did you do
Speaker 1: the one in Queens was like Jay Nogg's show. That
Speaker 1: was funny.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was like by the Creek in the cave.
Speaker 6: I think helped organize it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my goodness.
Speaker 5: Yeah it was great.
Speaker 3: They closed down and opened up in Austin, Yeah they did.
Speaker 5: And I missed that club. That was like the first
Speaker 5: place that ever booked me when I came to New
Speaker 5: York City, I mean just for a weekend. I'm from
Speaker 5: Philly originally, so I used to come up. That was
Speaker 5: the first place that ever booked me.
Speaker 6: What part of Philly are you from North Philly near
Speaker 6: like Temple?
Speaker 3: Yeah, right on.
Speaker 2: I lived in South Jersey for a year because both
Speaker 2: my parents worked in Center City. Oh nice, and so
Speaker 2: I remember driving over the Ben Franklin and hanging out
Speaker 2: at the Galleria Mall.
Speaker 5: Nice. Yeah it's real fancy now really because it was
Speaker 5: real ghetto.
Speaker 3: I was getting into faight.
Speaker 5: Yeah. No. People used to just go there to the
Speaker 5: gallery to fight, yeah for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And I remember just like going to Penn's Landing and
Speaker 2: making out and getting like finger fucked.
Speaker 3: It was great.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: My first joint that I bought was in Camden at
Speaker 3: Rutgers University. Thank you so much.
Speaker 5: Rutgers, Rutgers, Wow, Ruckers, Camen especially, guys.
Speaker 3: Did you ever hang out in Jersey?
Speaker 5: Yeah? I did. I have an aunt that lives in Pennsauken,
Speaker 5: right across the bridge. A lot of my cousins still
Speaker 5: live in South Jersey area. I'm very familiar with that area.
Speaker 5: I applied to Rutgers. I ended up going to Temple,
Speaker 5: but I definitely got, you know, into Rutgers as well.
Speaker 3: Oh shit, nice, I applied to Rutgers. I didn't get in.
Speaker 5: Are you so mad at them? Because I didn't get
Speaker 5: into Villanova and I didn't even want to go there.
Speaker 5: And I'm still pissed.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm a little salty. I'm like, I'm a little
Speaker 2: salty water hot dog.
Speaker 3: But it's okay. But picture, bitch, I know, I know.
Speaker 3: I'm my basement doing a podcast.
Speaker 1: Before you're about to record, you're about to film, Okay,
Speaker 1: your Netflix show? Hello? Why do you care about what
Speaker 1: Vileanova says? Are seating all or any other? Philadelphia? It's
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 3: I couldn't tell you why.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 2: It's like when you're a comedian's like the one table
Speaker 2: that's not laughing and everyone is just bent over a laughter.
Speaker 2: It's like the one person that told Michael Jackson he
Speaker 2: looked like a monkey as some ship when he was eight,
Speaker 2: and then he never let it go.
Speaker 3: I don't know why. I don't know why we do that.
Speaker 1: If you guys know why, let me know, because we
Speaker 1: believe that those people know the truth.
Speaker 5: I would never loud. I can't believe you. Why did
Speaker 5: you say it?
Speaker 6: They don't know anything. They're idiots.
Speaker 1: I know they're idiots, you know, and half the people
Speaker 1: are usually like in a show, they're not laughing. They
Speaker 1: were dragged there. You know what I'm saying. It wasn't
Speaker 1: their idea to come. And it's like the one person
Speaker 1: that's smiling, like I love these I'm your biggest fan.
Speaker 1: You're like you, I don't want to.
Speaker 4: Biggest fan.
Speaker 1: I love. I don't know that's that's people do that.
Speaker 2: When you started comedy and you made it, made the
Speaker 2: New York City transition, did you feel like you had
Speaker 2: to do all the things that a comedian has to do,
Speaker 2: like audition for SNL and go to Montreal or do
Speaker 2: a half hour wear a blazer and jeans.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 5: Yes, in that order, in that exact order is now
Speaker 5: I thought I needed to do it. Obviously, I absolutely
Speaker 5: wanted SNL. I'm still working on that. I auditioned a
Speaker 5: couple I don't know a couple of months ago and
Speaker 5: I put jfl on a very big pet of store.
Speaker 5: I was like, I need to be a new face.
Speaker 5: I have to go to Montreal. And the first year
Speaker 5: that I auditioned and I didn't get it, I was like,
Speaker 5: this whole institution is stupid. They don't know anything about comedy,
Speaker 5: you know. I was just so indignant and so angry.
Speaker 5: And so the second year that I auditioned, I told
Speaker 5: my manager before I went in, I was like, I'm
Speaker 5: not gonna audition anymore after this, and you got it,
Speaker 5: And she was like why Yeah, and I got in.
Speaker 5: She was like, well, why were you saying that? And
Speaker 5: I was like, because I didn't want to be ten
Speaker 5: years in the comedy trying to be a new face.
Speaker 6: I don't care about it that much. I think there's
Speaker 6: tons of comedians.
Speaker 5: I've never been a new face, never got on SNL,
Speaker 5: never had a Comedy Central whatever, and still have incredible
Speaker 5: careers and make content or movies and television. That's you know.
Speaker 5: I just knew before I got those things that regardless
Speaker 5: if I get them, I'll be fine. But when I
Speaker 5: got jfl Man, that was a really big deal for me.
Speaker 5: I think I cried because we're not allowed to tell
Speaker 5: people for a couple of weeks. I was on trains
Speaker 5: in New York City crying all the time for like
Speaker 5: two weeks because I couldn't believe that article is going
Speaker 5: to come out, that I was going to be a
Speaker 5: new face, and that I was going to Montreal. So yeah,
Speaker 5: I definitely I wanted all those things, but I came
Speaker 5: here to grind. I was focused on finding the mics
Speaker 5: that were going to give me good stage time. I
Speaker 5: was focused on Wyatt's ANAC's show, Night Train. I was
Speaker 5: focused on getting in with the Brooklyn comedy scene at
Speaker 5: the Knit. Hannibal was there, I was, you know, I
Speaker 5: knew that I didn't even care about Manhattan that much.
Speaker 5: I was trying to get right deep into what I
Speaker 5: felt like was a comedy renaissance that I thought I
Speaker 5: saw happening.
Speaker 2: You know, yes, And I always say, go where you're celebrated,
Speaker 2: not tolerated, And that's what Brooklyn comedy is for me,
Speaker 2: at least, It's like it always feels like a celebration,
Speaker 2: like a community understanding.
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say this, have you found do
Speaker 1: you feel like a community and supportive circle of people
Speaker 1: in the world of comedy? Oh?
Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely. I mean I was just with Wya Sanak
Speaker 5: and Don Will the other day we did a show
Speaker 5: shouting at the screen and why I knew Don Will
Speaker 5: from just people I knew in Philly way before I
Speaker 5: became a comedian, like.
Speaker 6: Just in my life.
Speaker 5: Shit, yeah, he was just one of my friends. I
Speaker 5: used to I was a huge Tanya Morgan Morgan fan.
Speaker 5: I would go to their concerts and then when I
Speaker 5: told him like, hey, I'm starting comedy, I'm gonna start
Speaker 5: this comedy here in Philly and I'm gonna come up
Speaker 5: to New York. Once I got to New York, he
Speaker 5: was one of the first people that told me you
Speaker 5: gotta come check out why It's Snacks show.
Speaker 6: You got to come to these rooms and Brooklyn.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Don's a real one. We love Don.
Speaker 3: He does our live shows.
Speaker 6: And yes, so talented, so funny, so smart, so talented.
Speaker 5: I would say definitely, if I could categorize the people
Speaker 5: who really influenced me and gave me so much resources
Speaker 5: and information. It's black men a thousand times. It's black
Speaker 5: men in comedy that have given me my biggest opportunities
Speaker 5: that have been the most encouraging. I mean, the list
Speaker 5: is long. I love that.
Speaker 3: I love that so much.
Speaker 1: Yeah's black man, And I hope.
Speaker 2: Black women are nice to you, because I really feel
Speaker 2: like sometimes it gets competitive for no reason. I feel
Speaker 2: like that's also part of the patriarchy, say that the
Speaker 2: we only have room for one, but there's always a
Speaker 2: room for a lot of us. You know, it doesn't
Speaker 2: have to be a white show with a black friend.
Speaker 2: It could also be a black show absolutely.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 3: I saw this quote on Instagram one time. Sorry Instagram,
Speaker 3: I want to quote you.
Speaker 2: But being happy for someone else's success will never fuck
Speaker 2: up yours. So I just really hope whoever the fuck
Speaker 2: is listening that, Yeah, just just be kind. It doesn't
Speaker 2: take much.
Speaker 1: That's really that's really hard for people. Sometimes it's hard
Speaker 1: to like celebrate other people's Why are you laughing at that?
Speaker 1: Wasn't a fun fun? So it's really it's it's hard.
Speaker 1: But you know what I do once a week is
Speaker 1: I make myself like I try to get over that
Speaker 1: and make myself watch something of my friends that they created,
Speaker 1: if it's on TV or something like that, and it's
Speaker 1: just like, oh, that's such a relief. And then you
Speaker 1: can just like text them and tell them how great
Speaker 1: it was. Yes, at least for me, because that's just
Speaker 1: that's just me. I'm just way too competitive. But I
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you sel like it says that like
Speaker 1: you came up like in foster homes and that you
Speaker 1: then live with a relative who was like in the
Speaker 1: Air Force, so you moved around a lot. So how
Speaker 1: do you think that's really? How is that informed your
Speaker 1: stand up?
Speaker 6: Well, first of all, it's made me an expert at
Speaker 6: being on the road.
Speaker 5: I pack light and if anybody, if you can ask anybody,
Speaker 5: if Chanelle at least crashing on your couch, you won't
Speaker 5: even know she's there, okay, because all I know how
Speaker 5: to do is not make a mess, not make sounds,
Speaker 5: and clean up of the mesself, you know. So it
Speaker 5: influenced me that that way.
Speaker 1: For sure.
Speaker 5: I noticed that all the time when I'm on the road,
Speaker 5: I'm like, man, some comedians cannot handle this, and I
Speaker 5: am breathing through. It's fine. But also I think it
Speaker 5: gave me a certain amount of resiliency. Like I think
Speaker 5: when I really decided, oh man, you know, I am
Speaker 5: a comedian, I'm gonna try this. That sounded crazy, That
Speaker 5: sounded like a crazy thing to say. But even crazier
Speaker 5: to me was like, oh, you didn't have a mom
Speaker 5: and a dad and you had to like navigate through
Speaker 5: the world and put yourself through college and like be
Speaker 5: a good person. That's really crazy, and you did that,
Speaker 5: and you did that, so maybe this is not going
Speaker 5: to be like a straight shot. It's probably gonna have
Speaker 5: some bumps, but it's downs like competitively much easier than
Speaker 5: the thing I had already done. And then yes, you
Speaker 5: know it just it gave me a perspective.
Speaker 3: Do you have memories of foster care?
Speaker 5: Oh yes, I remember back so far. I remember every home,
Speaker 5: every family, A lot of them had their own children,
Speaker 5: and you know, they were all in different aspects of
Speaker 5: their life. You know, some of them were older, you know, young,
Speaker 5: some young families. But yeah, I think also, just like
Speaker 5: moving around and going to different schools, you have to
Speaker 5: learn how to communicate with people from everywhere. You got
Speaker 5: to be personable. I'm sure that helped me develop my
Speaker 5: chops and how I speak and communicate.
Speaker 2: So because you're always walking into a room as a
Speaker 2: comedian after a host, and people have to trust you immediately.
Speaker 3: Absolutely you know what I mean, and you have to
Speaker 3: be on immediately.
Speaker 2: And just it really is a special skill set that
Speaker 2: no one talks about. I feel like the go to
Speaker 2: the rumor for comedians is that the class clown. Yes,
Speaker 2: like yeah, like the class clown that we're like pulling
Speaker 2: the pigtails and running away. We all experience pain, We've
Speaker 2: all had something traumatic happening in our lives. But it's
Speaker 2: also like, well, well how do you deal with it?
Speaker 2: And the way we deal with it is, you know,
Speaker 2: using it as a superpower. Really, once I realized I
Speaker 2: did that for comedy, I did that for dating, and it.
Speaker 3: Helped I want to hear more about that.
Speaker 2: So with dating, I felt like, not like the other
Speaker 2: person should be a mind reader, but I'm just like, well,
Speaker 2: we talked online, or we talked on the phone, or
Speaker 2: we have a friend in common, so you know what
Speaker 2: this is. And I was always disappointed because I'm just like,
Speaker 2: why are you not doing that thing? How Come we're
Speaker 2: not having fun? How come you're not polite or interesting
Speaker 2: or whatever the fuck it was, or like have the
Speaker 2: same goals as I do. Whatever it was, and then
Speaker 2: when I when I turn it around, I'm just like,
Speaker 2: this is I put it more on me than on them,
Speaker 2: Like this is who I am, this is what I'm doing.
Speaker 3: You can keep up if you want to.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 3: It just changed the game. And that's also you know
Speaker 3: how it should.
Speaker 2: Be when you walk in a room, you know, when
Speaker 2: you're a comedian and they're not laughing, it's not their fault.
Speaker 3: It's like, well what are you serving? It's on you?
Speaker 3: And so that's what I meant.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel you.
Speaker 1: I get that. I get that.
Speaker 2: It's like, look at my look at my These used
Speaker 2: to be mad he has I'm a gran, make a
Speaker 2: good pot of riceders.
Speaker 1: It's Michelle, but is pulling out of the station. You know,
Speaker 1: the Michelle train is pulling out the station. Do you
Speaker 1: want to be on that train or not? We have
Speaker 1: a good time, we don't have a good time, whether
Speaker 1: you like it or not. I get that. I get that. Wow, Okay,
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 5: Curious to ask you, like, do you feel like when
Speaker 5: you had to pick a mate, you had to find
Speaker 5: someone that you thought could handle your rise because I
Speaker 5: all always evaluate men on that scale.
Speaker 6: I'm always like, you know, you seem great now, I'm
Speaker 6: having so much fun with you.
Speaker 5: Now, this is so great, But how are you going
Speaker 5: to act five years from now when there's cameras in
Speaker 5: your face and we can't go everywhere you want to go?
Speaker 5: Or like you know, you know, are you bet yeh?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 6: How are you going to handle it?
Speaker 3: No, I didn't think that way.
Speaker 1: For me.
Speaker 2: That sounds like I'm thinking about the outside world and
Speaker 2: I need to think about behind closed doors. Who do
Speaker 2: I want to be with when I'm going through because
Speaker 2: it's still stressful, you know, like Danika Kakpatrick says, we
Speaker 2: love a new devil. So if I'm going through a change,
Speaker 2: will you be there for me? Because I know that
Speaker 2: you have my back and I have yours. So No,
Speaker 2: I never thought about that. My only gauge was do
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you tomorrow?
Speaker 6: And that's that's that really means something that really does.
Speaker 5: Yeah, lots of lots of lots of years in my
Speaker 5: life I dated guys that I was like, man, I
Speaker 5: don't like talking to you.
Speaker 2: But you but but we still do, right, because it's like, well,
Speaker 2: what else am I gonna do or I'm polite or whatever.
Speaker 2: You know, it's nice to have a hand to hole,
Speaker 2: but it's aciding to do that exactly because it's just
Speaker 2: like I will rather host other things instead of this
Speaker 2: dumb idea.
Speaker 3: They got to be happy for you.
Speaker 2: If someone is not happy for you, I don't understand
Speaker 2: couples that are jealous of each other's success. Don't you
Speaker 2: want to see your partner fucking shine, say that that's
Speaker 2: why you liked him in the first place.
Speaker 1: But not unless I'm shining brighter now. I want to
Speaker 1: see them shine, but just I have to be shining
Speaker 1: the brightest, and then I.
Speaker 5: Appreciate you for being honest like that. Jordan.
Speaker 6: But you know when I moved from Philly.
Speaker 5: When I moved from Philly to New York, I was
Speaker 5: dating a guy and like, right before I moved, I
Speaker 5: was feeling like, man, I don't know if he's gonna
Speaker 5: be able to handle this move. He's kind of acting away.
Speaker 5: And then he was supposed to come to a comedy
Speaker 5: show and he hadn't been to one of my shows
Speaker 5: in nine months, which is a really long time in
Speaker 5: my opinion. I'm like nine months. Yeah, I could have
Speaker 5: a baby up here, you don't even know. And so
Speaker 5: he said he was gonna come, and then he's said like, yeah,
Speaker 5: well I'm not gonna come. I gotta put my car
Speaker 5: in the shop. That was his excuse. And so then
Speaker 5: after the show car to the show, I called him
Speaker 5: to tell him about the show, and he was like, yeah,
Speaker 5: I wasn't able to put my car in the shop.
Speaker 5: The guy was there. So I just came home and
Speaker 5: I was like, wellh I didn't you come to the
Speaker 5: show And he was like, well, I didn't have a car.
Speaker 5: I was like, I don't have a car. I also
Speaker 5: don't have a car, So how is it that I
Speaker 5: can get to my show and you can't get to
Speaker 5: my show? And I was like immediately in the street,
Speaker 5: I'm like on the street the phone, on the phone
Speaker 5: with him, I was just like, hey, I break up
Speaker 5: with you, like a declaration, Like I declared it and
Speaker 5: it's done.
Speaker 1: Yeah wait, hold on, you said that to him, break
Speaker 1: up with you?
Speaker 6: And he was like you can't just say that.
Speaker 5: I was like, I did. I said it, it's over. Yeah,
Speaker 5: it's done.
Speaker 1: That's yeah, you know.
Speaker 3: For me, And I learned this way too late in life.
Speaker 2: Think about what you want to say, because if you're
Speaker 2: not saying it, then it's not productive for either one
Speaker 2: of us. Think about what you want to say. What
Speaker 2: do you what would you like to say to me
Speaker 2: right now? Are you uncomfortable with me doing this? Yeah,
Speaker 2: for sure, just making a conversation and it doesn't have
Speaker 2: to be an argument.
Speaker 3: That's another thing too, And he.
Speaker 5: Did break down. He did, at one point break down
Speaker 5: his fears and they were out there, burned into my memory.
Speaker 5: He was like, you know, when you're on stage, people
Speaker 5: are looking at you. And I was like, man, that's
Speaker 5: such a crazy sentence to say. It's just insane that
Speaker 5: you think you could love a girl and other people
Speaker 5: can't see her.
Speaker 6: That's crazy.
Speaker 5: I can't be invisible.
Speaker 6: Some people might see something that you see in me.
Speaker 6: But then he was like, well, you know, you're hanging out.
Speaker 5: With comedians after the show, and you guys are smoking
Speaker 5: and drinking, and I'm like, hey, I could get off
Speaker 5: stage and I could go sit at the table with
Speaker 5: you and hang out with you and show how dope
Speaker 5: you are by proxy, but instead you don't come with
Speaker 5: the show. So yeah, sometimes I do hang out behind
Speaker 5: the comedy club in a well lit alley.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I think what they might be talking about this
Speaker 1: person this week man might be talking about is is
Speaker 1: that you do have to display as a comedian. You
Speaker 1: often have to display emotional availability. You know, you have to,
Speaker 1: like you can't be like get on stage and be like, well,
Speaker 1: I'm taking mother, because you know, you're opening up these
Speaker 1: parts of your life to people. You're on stage, you're
Speaker 1: well that, you look great, you're funny, you're charming, you
Speaker 1: have charisma and the thing that they were attracted to
Speaker 1: about you. Other people could be as well, And I
Speaker 1: think that would would definitely invite some feelings of you know,
Speaker 1: jealousy and envy and things like that. I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, like, from this person's point of view, if
Speaker 1: they can if they those things notwithstanding, if they can
Speaker 1: support you, and even if they can admit like that
Speaker 1: makes me, you know, I get little jealous of that sometimes,
Speaker 1: you know, like even if they can do that that much,
Speaker 1: I'd feel like that would be a good partner if
Speaker 1: you can at least identify your issues and still kind
Speaker 1: of like roll with the punches.
Speaker 2: If someone, if someone even I would appreciate someone for
Speaker 2: admitting that, but I'd be like then this is a
Speaker 2: whole ass no, because you know, kind of like what
Speaker 2: you were saying, Schanel, people grow and they change and
Speaker 2: you have and you have to upgrade and level up
Speaker 2: and just you know, that's just what adulting is. Me
Speaker 2: at twenty five is not gonna be me at thirty five.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be bigger, better and brighter and thicker. So
Speaker 2: get on board or just double tap the shit that
Speaker 2: you see because you know, and I always say double tabit,
Speaker 2: you know, and keep it moving squirrel, you know. And
Speaker 2: it's one of the mantras like I gave for myself
Speaker 2: that I always talk about but I will never stop saying,
Speaker 2: is if you don't want to hear from me, you're
Speaker 2: gonna hear about me.
Speaker 3: Bye, bitch. I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 5: I can't hide, but I'm on the flyers. I'm outside.
Speaker 3: You have to figure out how to like live in
Speaker 3: the shine. You know you'll have fun, trust me.
Speaker 2: But but also like I have really talented, amazing friends
Speaker 2: that are introverts, very uncomfortable with dating someone that's an
Speaker 2: extrovert or even an extrovert introvert right, and so they
Speaker 2: love it because they get to have like a tour guide.
Speaker 2: But then when it actually comes to a conversation for
Speaker 2: more than five minutes, they're like, okay, go now, and
Speaker 2: it's just like, well, this is why you're doing this
Speaker 2: person because they are talking to people on the line too,
Speaker 2: you know, like, Okay, you can go out. So I'm
Speaker 2: just like, I definitely think there's somebody for everyone. It'll
Speaker 2: be very interesting to see who you end up with.
Speaker 1: The old African proverb goes, there's a lid for every pot.
Speaker 2: Oh, my god, audience members send questions about adulting, and
Speaker 2: we love to answer them.
Speaker 3: So would you mind answering some questions.
Speaker 5: With us, Let's do it. I'm an adults. My god.
Speaker 3: Steve Harvey called.
Speaker 2: Ooh, this is a good one, and I want to
Speaker 2: say this is like this might be. I saw you
Speaker 2: do a bit about stealing stuff from H and M,
Speaker 2: which is hilarious, Thank you, And I feel like this
Speaker 2: question is almost like that, but not really.
Speaker 3: We'll see.
Speaker 2: The question is I took my boyfriend's grandmother to the
Speaker 2: stove and I caught her stealing.
Speaker 3: What do I do and how do I tell him?
Speaker 5: Dangs?
Speaker 6: She dinna say what she stole? That's crazy.
Speaker 5: That's that's like central. I mean, if it's candy, that's funny.
Speaker 5: You know, let's tell the boyfriend and we'll make a
Speaker 5: bit about it. Every time I take your grandma's in
Speaker 5: the store, I guess I gotta watch your pockets. You know,
Speaker 5: that's hilarious.
Speaker 6: You know if she stole jewelry or you know, something serious.
Speaker 2: Like vodka, well, oh my goodness, guy, is really the
Speaker 2: where they now set it off? Where like the grandma
Speaker 2: is Jada Pickersmith, she's a grandma.
Speaker 1: Grandma deserves all the candy she wants. Grandma deserves all
Speaker 1: the candies she wants. She probably had sex with men
Speaker 1: that killed Nazis during War two so she can get
Speaker 1: all the crinkly candy she wants. And that's how crinkly
Speaker 1: candy bowls get.
Speaker 3: I guess. But you know what I would do. I
Speaker 3: would keep my purse away from grandma.
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, because I also I haven't
Speaker 5: had good luck with telling a man about his family.
Speaker 5: I have not had good luck. Don't do it, hey,
Speaker 5: you know, you know, like if you just say to
Speaker 5: a man, hey, you want to hear what your mom
Speaker 5: just said?
Speaker 6: They don't.
Speaker 2: They don't ever say yeah, they're never excited one hundred.
Speaker 5: So I have to say I've learned that lesson.
Speaker 1: I'm one of the few people where I have to
Speaker 1: admit this about myself. I love this about myself, where
Speaker 1: like family is not even people have a lot of baggage.
Speaker 1: My family it feels like you booked a ticket with
Speaker 1: no no carry ons. You know what I'm saying. Like
Speaker 1: my family is just like whoa, It's like very clean, Wow,
Speaker 1: no wipe needed.
Speaker 6: Nothing is bubbling underneath the surface, said every meal.
Speaker 1: They used to be tight, then they got mellow. I
Speaker 1: don't know what happened. I think it's because we left.
Speaker 1: But like, my parents are very very chill.
Speaker 3: Were you gonna ask the car question? Sure, yes, this
Speaker 3: is a good one.
Speaker 1: How do I not get taken advantage of when buying
Speaker 1: a new car? Double question? Mark?
Speaker 3: You bring a man, you bring a white guy.
Speaker 5: Definitely should have a man with you if he is
Speaker 5: the older man, preferably. But you know, Michael Ja used
Speaker 5: to sell cars, and I remember he said, you're not
Speaker 5: gonna get a good deal in the car. They're gonna
Speaker 5: rip you off.
Speaker 6: I remember he.
Speaker 5: Said that specifically. He was like, they're just not great investments.
Speaker 5: You know, they'd depreciate immediately. But yeah, bring a man
Speaker 5: and you know, I would say, get up periodically and
Speaker 5: take random phone calls, like while the man is talking
Speaker 5: the car dealer guy, just just just y set up.
Speaker 6: A scene, shake him up and make him.
Speaker 5: Feel like, oh, she might be leveraging what she's doing
Speaker 5: here now with something else. And then also lie. I
Speaker 5: would lie and be like, hey, I came here the
Speaker 5: other day and they said it was it was this
Speaker 5: much and he's like who You're like, Steve, just say,
Speaker 5: just lie and you know, Gary, you know, it's all
Speaker 5: kind of like theater.
Speaker 1: Buying a car and what do what do y'all? What
Speaker 1: do y'all think of? Things like Carvana though, like Carvana
Speaker 1: has actually been advertised so like I remember seeing a
Speaker 1: Carvana ad which was was like geared and demoed towards
Speaker 1: women because the commercial shows that want going in to
Speaker 1: buy a car. And then she's like they're they're like,
Speaker 1: well they have a.
Speaker 5: Big Carvana machine car dispensary thing in Philly. They put
Speaker 5: they have like a huge one, but it's in a
Speaker 5: bad neighborhood. And I wouldn't we didn't think about that
Speaker 5: just shar I drove around it a few times and
Speaker 5: I was like, yeah, but I'd have to like get
Speaker 5: out I'm going. It's just like I would never I.
Speaker 1: Would never go. It feels like a setup.
Speaker 5: It's like this glowing, shiny building and there's car you
Speaker 5: can see the cars inside, and everybody's like circling it.
Speaker 5: It's just I would never go there.
Speaker 1: That's Philly is hilarious. So if if it's on the mainline,
Speaker 1: then you would do it, but not yeah, not where
Speaker 1: it's at. Okay, I'll say one more thing though, just
Speaker 1: in case people are interested. My wife bought our car
Speaker 1: on using Triple A, and Triple A has this like
Speaker 1: thing where they just kind of bacon and like negotiate.
Speaker 1: Triple A negotiates with dealerships nationwide. Wow, and you just
Speaker 1: go in and you purchase your car and they can't
Speaker 1: even yeah, they can't even say anything, just like, here's
Speaker 1: your car, and that's it.
Speaker 5: That's amazing and similar and almost closely related to what
Speaker 5: you just said. I would like to say that a
Speaker 5: lot of young people don't know that you can get
Speaker 5: an aar P Carr, and you should, especially if you're
Speaker 5: a single, young lady. Because I often date men whose
Speaker 5: cars breakdown, and you know what, I never get stuff
Speaker 5: because I have an ARP card and I can call
Speaker 5: hold on, hold.
Speaker 1: On, hold on, hold on, hold on. Why you have
Speaker 1: an aa ARP card?
Speaker 5: That is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't.
Speaker 5: You do not have to be sixty five years old
Speaker 5: and retired to have an ARP card. You can be
Speaker 5: young and just don't make a lot of money. And
Speaker 5: it's like seven dollars a month. And I have full
Speaker 5: road club. They will if I lock keys in someone
Speaker 5: else's house or car, they'll come help me. If the
Speaker 5: car breaks down the club, they will come put gas
Speaker 5: in the car if the car breaks down.
Speaker 6: Man, And it has saved me.
Speaker 5: I no less than six or seven times I've been
Speaker 5: with the man and he's looked at me like it's
Speaker 5: on fire. What should we do? And I was like,
Speaker 5: I got a card, don't you worry.
Speaker 3: This is this is the commercial, honey, this is yeah,
Speaker 3: just do it. This is oh, this is where it's
Speaker 3: at QARP.
Speaker 6: No matter how old you are, go look it up.
Speaker 5: You can get it.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get it because I want to play bingo
Speaker 2: and ride the bus for free and go to GMC
Speaker 2: and get free vitamins.
Speaker 3: And shit and you get like sounds.
Speaker 5: On hotels everything.
Speaker 2: My parents have ARP and the magazine is pretty good too.
Speaker 2: My mom kept this one magazine where Viola Davis was
Speaker 2: on the cover. I'm like, I gotta do more squads
Speaker 2: with two pounds weights.
Speaker 3: Anyway, I just got to a ar PC later. This
Speaker 3: is a really good question. I think it's a really
Speaker 3: good question.
Speaker 2: How long after a five year relationship breakup is the
Speaker 2: right time to try dating again? Friend, you sound like
Speaker 2: a serial monogamous, Like just sit on it or get
Speaker 2: under it.
Speaker 1: I said, eggs just at a new one.
Speaker 5: I say, at least eight months.
Speaker 3: I say at least what Yeah, I say eight minutes.
Speaker 5: You can mess around, like you could hook up. You
Speaker 5: could put a city in the mouth, you know, But
Speaker 5: I wouldn't know. I will you know, I would wait.
Speaker 5: I would wait at least at least eight months. I
Speaker 5: would say, yeah for something serious.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you need time to heal.
Speaker 5: And I often feel like healing sometimes takes a percentage
Speaker 5: of like however long you're with someone, and five years
Speaker 5: is significant. You're gonna have to relearn how to do
Speaker 5: a lot of things in your life day to day.
Speaker 5: You're gonna have to like relearn whole forms of support
Speaker 5: and re establish relationships with other people that you should
Speaker 5: have maintained but you haven't been. And that's gonna take
Speaker 5: time to prioritize that, to get your life back to
Speaker 5: that level before you can then try to bring somebody
Speaker 5: else in because you're in this, you know, this healing phase.
Speaker 5: You can't bring somebody into your healing phase because you're
Speaker 5: gonna look different in a couple of months.
Speaker 3: That's so interesting.
Speaker 2: I am almost the opposite where I'm just like part
Speaker 2: of the healing for me is figuring out how to
Speaker 2: be casual and not put all my eggs in this
Speaker 2: basket and just like have more fun, create more memories,
Speaker 2: and not feel like this person.
Speaker 3: Has to be my end all be all.
Speaker 2: That sounds healthy too, but yeah, I wouldn't even know
Speaker 2: how much time, Like, I don't think you can put
Speaker 2: like a proper number on it, Like obviously you feel
Speaker 2: it out. But like for me, the bigger question is
Speaker 2: if you're getting out of a five year relationship, why
Speaker 2: do you even want to get back into one?
Speaker 1: Because probably they liked it well, they said dating right, Well,
Speaker 1: people want to try it again, you know, just give
Speaker 1: it another shot, you know it's so we do it.
Speaker 1: We can't help ourselves.
Speaker 3: That's stupid, But you'll just side.
Speaker 1: Me. Okay, here's a question thoughts on having a TV
Speaker 1: in the bedroom question mark does it ruin sexy time? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Sometimes people's place is too small to not have it
Speaker 1: in the bedroom.
Speaker 2: Okay sometimes you Yeah, sometimes you can hook your porn
Speaker 2: up to the TV.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: You gets you a projector and make it bigger.
Speaker 1: Oh only that worked for everything. My own person does
Speaker 1: not believe in having the TV in the bedroom, and
Speaker 1: it is exhausting. So what do y'all think? I mean,
Speaker 1: I love in a hotel. You know you get that.
Speaker 1: I lay down on the bed.
Speaker 5: BA.
Speaker 2: We've been in this house for three years. We have
Speaker 2: a TV in our bedroom. I can count on my
Speaker 2: hands how many times we actually watched something on it.
Speaker 3: We don't even do it. We're about to move it
Speaker 3: somewhere else. I don't know where.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know why we thought we needed
Speaker 2: a TV in the bedroom. We just thought it was
Speaker 2: like cool and adult. But the bed is really for
Speaker 2: sleeping for us. When I had a studio, it was different,
Speaker 2: but now we have like an expensive ass couch. So yeah,
Speaker 2: it depends what your setup is. Yeah, like what's your setup?
Speaker 2: I love to write in my bed, that's fun. I
Speaker 2: love writing really yeah. I like pillows prop me up.
Speaker 2: I can write in my tummy, like I just yeah.
Speaker 5: I think it's about if you if you and your
Speaker 5: partner have like established a vibe or you know, a
Speaker 5: respectful different vibe than maybe you can maybe you can't.
Speaker 5: But like if you prioritize reading and writing before you
Speaker 5: go to bed, you know, then you probably want to.
Speaker 5: You care more about the lamp and the pillow and
Speaker 5: the ambiance than the TV. But if he's like, oh,
Speaker 5: I got to check ESPN, it's like, hey, there's an
Speaker 5: app for that, and you you don't have to, you
Speaker 5: don't have to.
Speaker 6: Just just make every everybody be a part of this.
Speaker 5: You know, there's technologies come a long way.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, why are people trying to play around?
Speaker 1: Like we watch TV and you fall asleep with their
Speaker 1: computer to your left. You know what I'm saying. People
Speaker 1: fall asleep with their computer in the bed all the time.
Speaker 1: And by the way I write, I write in the
Speaker 1: tub like Trumbo, the great screenwriter with with a feather
Speaker 1: or a quill, I know you do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's Kate Winsley and the reader. Okay, last question.
Speaker 2: How many times can I say I've had a food poisoning?
Speaker 1: Wait?
Speaker 2: How many times can I say I've had food poisoning
Speaker 2: before my boss figures out.
Speaker 3: It's a hangover?
Speaker 5: This is a this is a boy kind of sickness.
Speaker 2: Because I would have been, like, I get my period,
Speaker 2: Like I got my period, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: Like that's what I would have said.
Speaker 3: So this definitely is a dude.
Speaker 1: Everybody's so scared that they're gonna get policed, their bodies
Speaker 1: are gonna get well.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. I would say.
Speaker 6: I would say the number is like three, three times.
Speaker 5: You can take a good number, and it's got to
Speaker 5: be they've got to be separated out, and it can't
Speaker 5: be like around any time where the boss also heard
Speaker 5: you were having a house running party, Like it can't
Speaker 5: be within that same.
Speaker 3: Month around Saint Patrick's Day.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you gotta like strategically place those but
Speaker 5: also like as some point you're gonna have to ramp
Speaker 5: it up and tell your boss like gets cry out
Speaker 5: a plant that it's like a gas tollers now like
Speaker 5: I gotta go in there and now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta follow it up.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 3: Yeah, get yourself a call and cleansed.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, and after the gastroom in trologists say you got
Speaker 1: to go to the psycho pharmacologists because the head body connection.
Speaker 1: You know, now your your your stomach chemical and your
Speaker 1: brain is getting offset. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Fuck, we see a lot of people don't know that.
Speaker 5: We're also chemists and comedians. People don't know, but we
Speaker 5: know all about it and chemistry and.
Speaker 3: This has been a fucking join delight.
Speaker 2: We asked our guests one question one at the end
Speaker 2: of every episode. What's the most adult thing you would
Speaker 2: like to do for yourself this year that you haven't
Speaker 2: done yet?
Speaker 6: Ooh, running out of time?
Speaker 1: Do you want to buy a Treasury bond?
Speaker 5: How did you know.
Speaker 6: Time and take?
Speaker 5: I gotta take these investments seriously. I would like to
Speaker 5: plan a proper vacation for myself. I think over the
Speaker 5: last few years, I've been so focused on comedy, so
Speaker 5: focused on my career, my career Beyonce mod Beyonce mode,
Speaker 5: that I you know, if I did a vacation, it
Speaker 5: was because I had a show somewhere and I was
Speaker 5: planning to do it in the middle of that. So
Speaker 5: I'd like to, like, you know, plan a nice trip
Speaker 5: and maybe turn my phone off, don't get crazy, don't
Speaker 5: get crazy, whoa.
Speaker 6: You know, you know, maybe watch some TV before bed crazy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would like to. I would like to do that,
Speaker 5: a nice adult vacation.
Speaker 3: I think we deserve it.
Speaker 2: I feel like our ancestors have worked so fucking hard. Yeah,
Speaker 2: why do we have to work this hard? Our bones
Speaker 2: are tired.
Speaker 5: I'll probably go to an island somewhere, I don't know,
Speaker 5: maybe Jamaica's.
Speaker 1: Yeah, lovely Michelle you know Michelle's have Jamaica Hell yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my mom's in Jamaica.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been there before, but I would love to

Speaker 3: Homophobica than that. I love Jamaica.
Speaker 1: This is Jamaican me crazy.
Speaker 3: It has been such a motherfucking pleasure. I can't wait
Speaker 3: to see you. I r L and look.

Speaker 5: it for Jamaica.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Usain Bolt, thanks you bye bye.
Speaker 1: Wow. That was fun.

Speaker 2: in one between funerals and vacations and work stuff.
Speaker 1: Nah, she was, Sanela is great. I was always admiring
Speaker 1: all her videos online and I've seen her stand up,
Speaker 1: and I really liked the time we got to spend together,
Speaker 1: what little there was of it when we were making
Speaker 1: Everything's Trash available on Hulu and free Form. And I
Speaker 1: just I don't know when I when I see young
Speaker 1: up and coming comedians like that and like the future's bright,
Speaker 1: not just for her, but just like.
Speaker 3: And I love I love the hustle, I love the drive.
Speaker 2: I love the looking inside themselves to figure out what
Speaker 2: they want to say, as opposed to just you know,
Speaker 2: you just meet a lot of people that are just
Speaker 2: kind of starfuckery and just live in algorithms and social
Speaker 2: media numbers. And so it's really nice and important and
Speaker 2: fulfilling to meet black women who are definitely gonna make
Speaker 2: the world a better place one joke at a time. Yeah,
Speaker 2: for sure, Oh yes, and yes, and usually I got
Speaker 2: usually I gotta go take my broad off, but now
Speaker 2: I gotta go put my bra on.
Speaker 3: You know, it's it's too much.
Speaker 2: It's like the kids at the kiddie pool are like
Speaker 2: just swimming in different directions.
Speaker 3: Bye, what say goodbye?
Speaker 6: I can't.
Speaker 1: You're making me laugh too hard. You're making me laugh
Speaker 1: My microphone fell off?
Speaker 3: Oh is that what we're calling it?
