1
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: Holiday Wow, Hello Stradios, Hello glamour girls, and welcome to

2
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: Stradio Lab presents the first annual holiday inn Bananza. George

3
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: how what described what the holidayer bananza means to you?

4
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: Whoa way to put me on the spot. To bananza

5
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 1: means that for the holidays, we are ripping off our

6
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 1: masks and dining indoors with all of our listeners. We

7
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: are saying, oh, screw the science. We are saying, you know,

8
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 1: just why why can't people just be people anymore and

9
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: just have a conversation. That's my biggest thing with the

10
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: pandemic is like why can't everyone just be normal for once?

11
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: I know, it's so sad how much people give power

12
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: this whole pandemic. It's like, just be normal and the

13
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: pandemic will go away. We're brainwashed? What is it? What's

14
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: the reference? Oh it's um Cecily Strong being the girl

15
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: you wish you hadn't started a conversation with at a

16
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: party where she goes we're brainwatched. Wow icon Yeah, well, um,

17
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: well we're quoting SNL here on the honest day. You know,

18
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: we people need to be more um not to be

19
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: not to be like Ross Matthews. But people need to

20
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: be more supportive of Cecily Strong. What what do you mean?

21
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: I feel like the globe is cheering her name, the

22
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: Boston Globe, No, the global community. No, here's the thing.

23
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: And this is something I could go on about. But

24
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: the way that everyone rallied around the women of SNL

25
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: in like when we were young, like my Rudolph Amy Poehler,

26
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: that group, I don't think there is enough of that

27
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: with the current crop. Well. I also think they got

28
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: a little bit greedy. I think I think they I

29
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: don't not to be too psychotic, but I think they

30
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: kind of um started assuming that they would get that praise. Uh,

31
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: and so sometimes they take chances on that show that

32
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 1: are like, oh, you just thought you were going to

33
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: get applauded for this because you can sing. And I'm

34
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: really not trying to be mean. And I did not

35
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: not believe you're doing this. I did not go into

36
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: this thinking that I would do this, Like I love

37
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: the ladies of SNL like me want to say I

38
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 1: support women in common, and I think that what we're

39
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 1: seeing now is a classic example of of um, you know,

40
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: they're the bar for women being higher. Pete Davidson can

41
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: come out and do an armpit fart. He can be like, hey, guys,

42
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 1: look at this, and it's like, I mean, uh, earnestly,

43
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right, but I you know, let the record

44
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 1: show I don't support Pete David's arm fit far either.

45
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: I I guess I hold the ladies to a high

46
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: standard because I I believe in them and I think

47
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: that they're and that's that kind of the I mean,

48
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: that's what's difficult about where about being a gay consumer

49
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: of culture is that because we hold women to such

50
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: a high standard, we ultimately are setting them up for failure,

51
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: and then when they do fail, we destroy them emotionally.

52
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,119
Speaker 1: That is definitely one of the hard parts about being

53
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: a gay consumer of culture, right, and no one talks

54
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: about how that affects us. I mean, that's literally what

55
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: the whole It Gets Better campaign was about, is like, look,

56
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: I know you're holding women to a really high stack,

57
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: and look, I know that that's going to tear them

58
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: down and I know how hard that is for you.

59
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: Project was like, I know you feel guilt about the

60
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: expectations you set for women in entertainment, but I promise

61
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: when you get older, you know Um, many of them

62
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: will lose their careers because of you. Oh my god, No,

63
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm I'm not toxic. I'm not swear, I

64
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: really am not. I support the ladies and I think

65
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: specially deserves the best. I just think, you know, some

66
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: criticism now and then is not inherently bad, right, Yeah,

67
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: I guess it's less that they're being criticized and more

68
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: that they're being ignored. Um. And that's a wrap on that,

69
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: and that's a rap on the SNL round up our

70
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: our weirdest segments so far. I'm sorry I introduced it. No,

71
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: I think we can both agree that we love all

72
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 1: the ladies of SNL and we hate all the men

73
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: on SNL except our friend b and Yang of course.

74
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: UM sure, I'll run with that. Okay. UM, so what

75
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: this is we've we're here. We're kind of doing that

76
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: um time thing that we do where we're recording the

77
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: intro after recording the episode. Um, so we t that

78
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: time thing. Yeah. If you're listening and you're doing that

79
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: time thing, feel free to let us know. That time

80
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: thing is when you do something out of order, hashtag

81
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: that time thing. Yeah, if you're reading a book and

82
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: you read the end and then the beginning. You're doing

83
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: that time thing. Oh the other day, Um, we had

84
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: dinner and Matthew had his salad after his entree hashtag

85
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: that time thing. That is definitely that time That is

86
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,840
Speaker 1: definitely that feeling one that time thing. I love that

87
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: time thing. Okay, that time thing is iconic. That Sime

88
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 1: thing is genius. But so yeah, so I think we

89
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 1: we did a really good job. Obviously we're we're with

90
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: We're we are unable to be critiqued. Of course, unlike

91
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: the women of s and we are we the critique.

92
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: Put take their critique of us and just move it

93
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 1: on over to the studios at thirty Rock. Um, we

94
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: were very earnest but and here's my fear, if I

95
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 1: if I can talk my fear you should? Were we funny?

96
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: It sort of was that thing where it was like, oh, like,

97
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: we're doing the thing we said we were going to do. Right?

98
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 1: Is that? Actually? What is? Are we taking away the

99
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: thing that makes this podcast interesting and good? Right? Well?

100
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: So over and over? I mean, so the premise of

101
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: the Holiday Earnestness Bonanza is that we would answer the

102
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: questions completely earnestly, without trying to be funny or be ironic,

103
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: and so in fact, you could argue that we took

104
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 1: what we know makes the podcast work and said, let's

105
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,359
Speaker 1: do the opposite of that. It's out a guess. You

106
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: know how people do those shows or used to do

107
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: those shows when live shows existed that it was like,

108
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: get this, it's stand up comedians trying improp for the

109
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: first time. This show is all like improvisers doing stand

110
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: up for the first time, you know, when things are

111
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: bad at Yeah, but also remember when it was like

112
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: comedians you know, talk about like comedians read their middle

113
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: school diaries or like comedians talk about their favorite movie.

114
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't care. I mean, and this brings

115
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: up a bigger issue, which, um, you know, it's sort

116
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: of biting the hand that feeds. But we need to

117
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: stop putting comedians on pedestals. Yeah, well I don't do

118
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: we put comedians on pedestals? I think we as a culture.

119
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: Do we as a culture? I think like the you know,

120
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: people will just like believe that Chappelle can say anything

121
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: and it's genius. Remember when there is all right, this

122
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: one there there's every two years there's an Atlantic article

123
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: called why comedians are the new philosophers that is my

124
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 1: favorite genre, or like why comedy is the new punk rock?

125
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I absolutely live for that stuff. I

126
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: live for it because it's like, well actually, and then

127
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: the things they cite are literally like and again, no

128
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: shade to any of these people who I adore, but

129
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: it's like Key and Peel and inside Amy Schumer. The

130
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: sketches are very clear either either jokes that are like

131
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: plays on words or like simple morality tales with jokes

132
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: they're not. That's not philosophy. I mean, okay, Greek philosophy, Gatekeeper,

133
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: Classic George. When I get my own Comedy Central show,

134
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 1: it will literally be Greek philosophy. And then they'll say

135
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,479
Speaker 1: comedians are the new philow Uspers, and they'll be right, yeah, exactly.

136
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: But until then, you know, keep publishing your little think

137
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: pieces on your sub stack, you idiots. It's gonna be

138
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: the next uh no, never mind toxic. So um, the

139
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,839
Speaker 1: point is, we recorded this holiday bananza, we edited down, um,

140
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: approximately three hours worth of material into what you're about

141
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: to hear, and we can't be held accountable if it's

142
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: not funny, because that's what we We actually are delivering

143
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: on a promise we made a promise between your ears

144
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 1: and gods and earnest and we're keeping that. That's what

145
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: the holidays are about, is making a promise with our

146
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: listeners and with our God. I love when people say, like,

147
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: that's what the holidays are about about. It's like honesty.

148
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: Isn't that what the holidays are about? It's like, is

149
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: it like you can't say that about anything? Yeah, wow,

150
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 1: we're having sandwiches for lunch. Is that the holidays are about?

151
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I would love us in I've been

152
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: doing as I said before we started recording, I've been

153
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: getting back into publicity and doing the Nick Roll voice

154

Speaker 1: as Liz on publicity. And people don't know George is

155
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,560

156
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: and you think, oh, I bet he's not a master

157
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: of accent work. I like water, but I want that

158

00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: know what, God bless you for sincerely talking about things

163
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,320

164
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: and yet you're doing it. And I think that's a

165
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: perfect way to start off the holiday. Earnest his ponanza.

166
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,360

00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: key n Peel and inside Amy Schumer, but I love

168
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,679

172
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: of course, you know there's a movement to reclaim Austin

173
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: Powers as earnestly good. I mean, it's it's it's the best.

174
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 1: It's so good. I need to rewatch it. Um. I

175
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,719

Speaker 1: girl who's like conservative and that's who like the Nicky

180
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: Blonsky character wants to beat or whatever, and and it's

181
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: like a big role and in the original it's this

182
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: girl and her name and the character's name is Amber

183
00:11:55,400 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: von Tussell. That actress went on to become get this

184
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: vitamin C. Yes, whoa isn't that crazy? That is crazy?

185
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 1: I mean, but I even't see is one of the

186
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: weirdest pop people because we know her. She existed, she

187
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 1: had some hits. You cannot deny that she existed. You

188
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: can nevertheless, she existed. You cannot deny that she existed.

189
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: And yet where is she? Like yet like she did?

190
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: Did she exist? Like part of me is like was

191
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 1: that like implanted? Like sort of a Mandela effect? Like

192
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: we believe she existed, but she didn't actually exist. Well,

193
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 1: it always felt like that song came out and was

194
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: immediately a throwback, like even the year came out. People

195
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: were like, oh my god, remember this song and it's

196
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: like that came out today. Yeah, so it's crazy. Sorry,

197
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 1: go ahead, no, no, I remember that song hitting so hard? Wow.

198
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: As we go On, we do remember all the time.

199
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 1: But it's crazy to think when she talks about as

200
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: we go On, we remember all the times we had together.

201
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: She's talking about working with experimental filmmaker John Waters. He's

202
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 1: literally like you think she's relatable. But she's literally talking

203
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: about acting with Sonny Bono and Debbie Harry and Harri Spray,

204
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: that's what she graduated from. That's I just wait what

205
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: she's referring to. Literally, did you know her parents in

206
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: that movie are Debbie Harry and Sonny Bono. That's absolutely insane.

207
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: It's insane. And then she was just like, I'm a

208
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: relatable queen. I'm going to be just like a normal

209
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: girl named Vitamin C who exists but then also doesn't. Oh,

210
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: and then the best thing about it, Oh, there's name

211
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: is vitamin C. Right, guess what the C stands for?

212
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: Guess what her real name is? You better believe it's Colleen.

213
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: I mean Vitamin colleen, Vitamin Colleen. That's like that name

214
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,640

00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,960

229
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: earnest moment, and so I'm going to put that in. Yeah,

230
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: starting from there, I think, Okay, that sounds good, and

241
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: didn't talk about this ahead of time. Should start with

242
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 1: some some real, real being earnest, some real sincerity. Hey George,

243
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, don't get it. I'm so glad we

244
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: started a podcast together. And I feel like I've gotten

245
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: to know you so much. And we were friends before

246
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: and now we're much closer friends. And I think we

247
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: work well together, and I think our humor compliments each

248
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: other humor very well, and it's been a pleasure. Well, Sam, Well,

249
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: I'll say this. I have known about your comedy since

250
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: before I even moved to New York. And I remember

251
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: thinking you were so intelligent and so uh funny and

252
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: so original when I was still living in Trigger Warning Boston,

253
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: whoa where I was for Drigger Warning grad school. And well,

254
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: one of the questions we got was how did we meet?

255
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: So I'll leave it for for then. But I I'm

256
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: very sometimes I pinched myself. No, you know what, See,

257
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: I already started getting not earnest. All I'll say is

258
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: that I am really really I would not want to

259
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: do this with anyone else. I really in my heart

260
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: believe that, um that this this has been one of

261
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: the things that has kept me going during the pandemic

262
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: and during this terrible nine months we've had, and it's

263
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: something that challenges me. It's something I look forward to,

264
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: and um, I would not want to do it with

265
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: anyone else, and in fact, UM never will do it

266
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: with anyone else. Well, imagine if two weeks after this

267
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,919
Speaker 1: came out, I was replaced. Well, one of our questions

268
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: is who would you replace your co host with? Forward

269
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: to your response. Um, yeah, I And you know, I'll

270
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: say one more thing when I at this point, Matthew

271
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,120
Speaker 1: has met most of my friends, it felt especially special

272
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 1: when he met you because it felt like he was meeting, uh,

273
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: someone who I care a lot about and someone who

274
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: I whose opinion I respect, and it meant a lot

275
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: when you said you liked him, that's so sweet. Um. Yeah, Well,

276
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: if I'm being earnest, I'm I still am worried that

277
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: he hates me. But are you really? Yeah? I feel

278
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: like that night I was trying and you know that

279
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 1: thing where you're like like you're meeting a person who's

280
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: like important to you know, and you're like important globally. Yeah,

281
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: Well I was, yeah, he's important to you, And I

282
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, I gotta make a good impact. So

283
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: I was like, and you know, we're we're desperate for

284
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,959
Speaker 1: like attention, and so I was like trying to like

285
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: get him to like really respond to me. And it's

286
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: like so interesting. Yeah, I didn't get that. I thought

287
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: you were being very cool. And I also, you know,

288
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: you have to remember he has listened to most episodes

289
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: I am. I'm not saying every episode, because occasionally I

290
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: will realize he hasn't. Do you quiz him every Wednesday? No,

291
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: but sometimes it'll I think I would, Uh, I would

292
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: venture to say he has listened to seven listen when

293
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: he goes on runs. Oh that's nice. Misha has not

294
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: listened to a single episode? Is that true? Yeah, which

295
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: I think is like go off. Like I told, especially

296
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: at the beginning, I said, I was really like not

297
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: into the fact that he was listening. But here we are.

298
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 1: But here we are, and we're growing one year strong.

299
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: We just had our one year anniversary. Wow, congrats, thank you.

300
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: That's crazy. Now we are the earnestness, muscles are lubricated,

301
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: and I'm ready to answer these questions with no sense

302
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: of irony. Ontson, Okay. Question one, this is from Daniel.

303
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,480

00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: queen to be your drag mother. Who would you pick,

305
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 1: sam So, I said, Alaska. You know, she captures the weird,

306
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: she captures the glenmore, she's funny, she's she's she's got

307
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: it all I love, I would say, I mean, I

308
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: think Alaska is ultimately my favorite queen overall. I think

309
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: I have a very distinct memory of watching the All

310
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: Stars finale where Alaska one in Boston at Katya's homebar,

311
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: and it was really really like where she used to

312
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: literally live right above there and perform every night. And

313
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: it was one of the most depressing nights of my

314
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,959
Speaker 1: life because everyone there knew her and was clearly so upset.

315
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: And it started with this like really fun you know,

316
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 1: drag show and all this stuff, and then by the end,

317
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,639
Speaker 1: people it was like truly like the part in like

318
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,840

319
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,959
Speaker 1: off and it's like this, like let's go home. Um. So,

320
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: I do have a special place in my heart for

321
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: Katy and I like her lot, and also, um she

322
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,199
Speaker 1: the only Drag Race queen that follows me on Twitter. Wow.

Speaker 1: I moved. Follow up question George. Yes. My following question

332
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,959
Speaker 1: is do I know why you moved so much? My

333
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 1: everyone asks was your dad in the military. The answer

334
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 1: is no, he worked in HR for different companies. Uh.

335
00:21:54,640 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: And it was just corporate moving around, um and and

336
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,360
Speaker 1: so small towns in the Midwest and South. And then

337
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: I went to college in Virginia, and then I moved

338
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:12,360
Speaker 1: to New York City to be a UCB improviser, realized

339
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 1: I didn't love it and started stand up and that's uh,

340
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 1: and then became a smash success. Okay. Follow up question

341
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: Where and how did you meet your boyfriend Misha? Oh? Um.

342
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 1: Misha and I met at Gay Bar Metropolitan UM. He

343
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: was there with his coworkers and brother, gay brother, and

344
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 1: I was there with past guest and Stradio Lab Universe

345
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:46,479
Speaker 1: villain Julio Torres and um uh, Misha came up to

346
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: us his his the way he tells it, his co

347
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 1: workers and brother were kind of like, you know, it's

348
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: so hard to meet a man in New York City,

349
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: and he was like, oh, you babies, just go talk

350
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: to somebody. And then he came up and talked to me,

351
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 1: and then uh that he talked to us for a

352
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: moment and then walked away. And then later in the night,

353
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: I was like, where did that guy go? And then

354
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 1: I went and found him and we hooked up and

355
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: then it was like, wait, who was that? Like, maybe

356
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: we should keep hanging out hot? So it's hot? Is

357
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: that my life? Does that counts? My life story? Didn't

358
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: think that counts. I feel like the two I think, um, well,

359
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 1: because I talked so much about my my story past

360
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: and um so it makes sense that that that people

361
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: have gaps when it comes to years. Yeah. So the

362
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: second oh, sorry, go ahead, this is still okay. For

363
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: the second question is what would be a good good

364
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 1: New Year's resolution for straight people? Moisturize? Oh bitch, um I, George,

365
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: do you have a good answer to this. Um, I

366
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 1: think actually I have a very I have a very

367
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: us answer, which is that I think the new year's

368
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 1: resolution for straight people should be to listen and learn.

369
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and I think for storre people there's never

370
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: been a better year than to start really living out loud. Yes,

371
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: listen and learn and live out loud. Now you might say,

372
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: how is how are those two compatible with one another?

373
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: You're you're you're already, um, start over, bitch, you're overthinking

374
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 1: it and you're underthinking it. Classic vintage. Okay, next email,

375
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 1: this is from Madeline. Um. Okay, this one is for George.

376
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 1: What shade of blue is best? Okay? This is so boring,

377
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 1: but I have to say so I used to dress

378
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: really horribly, And not that I now dressed well, but um,

379
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: I used to to really just look terrible all the time.

380
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 1: And a big game changer for me was realizing that

381
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: basically I should only buy things that are black, denim, white,

382
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 1: or navy m and so um, I would say, my

00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: favorite shade of blue is navy. Okay. Repressed vibes, literally,

00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: Greece and should be in Pittsburgh, and I were like, oh,

Speaker 1: maybe you can just come go to Pittsburgh where you belong,

410
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: but also come through here and like stay with me

411
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 1: for a month and that will be like our alternative

412
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 1: Christmas is like us together, cooking and like hanging out.

413
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: And then basically, like cases got worse, both in New

414
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: York and in Greece, so now everyone's just stuck where

416
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:58,920

Speaker 1: my job. But same And finally, a straight shooter, the

423
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,639

424
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 1: not in its current adoration. Yeah, and my answer would

425
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: have to be capitalism because honey, we're shopping. This is

426
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,040

454
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: this is so long. Okay. I'm not sure if you

455
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: guys have watched the show The Mass Singer, but I'm

456
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 1: having such a hard time gauging the queerness of it.

457
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: I've always felt like reality shows have a huge place

458
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: and queerness. Real Housewives, Who Falls, Drag Race, American Sex

459
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 1: Top Model, my own queer wakening took place there. The

460
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: Mask Singer feels like it should be queer in the

461
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: same way. Has audacious costumes and fun blist celebrities, but

462
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: watching it, it feels straight. The only performance in four

463
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,239
Speaker 1: seasons of the show that I felt like had any

464
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: queerness to it was Wendy Williams performance Camp Excellence. Maybe

465
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: it is because Robin Thick is a judge, or because

466
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 1: any time a mask performer wears a dress but has

467
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: a man's voice. They described the singer as flamboyant and

468
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: guess that he is Elton John. Just completely straight vibes

469
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: all around. I feel this way about Dancing with the

470
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: Stars too, but that is literally a man and a

471
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: woman dancing with each other. So maybe that is why.

472
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: What reality shows do you feel are completely straight to you? Huh? Well,

473
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: I'll say this, and I've never seen the masks. Oh yeah,

474
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: here's something funny. When I was at Matthews for Thanksgiving,

475
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: the like the football game went right into the Mask Singer,

476
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: and I, for whatever reason, I was like obsessed with

477
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: explaining that everyone how the masks sing or work. No

478
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 1: one else had seen it, and I was like, well, yeah,

479
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: so they're eating a mask. But then like the judges

480
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: have to guess, and then everyone was like And then

481
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: at the end, I said something onlines of like well,

482
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 1: I've never watched it, and then everyone looked at me

483
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: and they were like, really, because you seem to know

484
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: so much about it. But I would say, Mask Singer

485
00:30:55,720 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: to me is straight camp. M M, yeah, it's straight camp.

486
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: I I I think any network reality show is like

487
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 1: pretty like trumpy, honestly, like like like Bachelor and Bachelorette.

488
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: I mean there are different readings of it, of course,

489
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 1: but there's something so Christian about them. And we're not

490
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: huge reality show fans as a duo, and I've only

491
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: recently started getting into the Housewives, but after a lot

492
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: of many years of resisting. Yeah, I I I like

493
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: you know, the few like I like to America, sext

494
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: Time Model growing up, and I like Rupulse drag race Um.

495
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: But other than that, I'm not a huge reality queen.

496
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: So and I have to say, like as much as

497
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: like I said, I have been getting into Housewives recently,

498
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: but this like the general movement to be like, actually

499
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: reality TV is renaissance art. I don't like it, Like

500
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 1: I actually think it is stupid and you should feel

501
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 1: bad if you watch Reality Team blow the earnestness horn.

502
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: But I but I, but I get it because when

503
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: I do, when I at the times that I have

504
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 1: gotten into it, which is vander Pump Rules realized I

505
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: was in New York and now Salt Lake City, I

506
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: also I do get into it, and I'm like really

507
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: into participating in the conversations blah blah. But I think

508
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: everyone should maintain a sense of shame about liking those

509
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: things because they're not good and they're and they're making

510
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 1: your brain bad. I mean, yeah, I think the key

511
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: takeaway is just maintain a sense of shame. As long

512
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: as you can do that, you're truly I'm completely I

513
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: think if everyone just maintained a proper sense of shame

514
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: about things, this is how I feel about like superhero

515
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,239
Speaker 1: movies too. Just like it's okay if you like them,

516
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: just know that it's embarrassing. We don't have I don't,

517
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 1: I don't. We don't have to elevate everything because you

518
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: like it, so you want to feel less bad about yourself. Okay,

519
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: next question, Yeah, that was genius. Okay, So this one

520
00:32:54,640 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: is from Trev uh the the with the text little

521
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: email address. Okay, yummy. The headline or the title or

522
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: the subject line rather is is guy Fiery Hot? And

523
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 1: other musings? Okay? So he says, longtime listener, first time emailer, Sam,

524
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 1: which character and I now pronounce you chuck in Larry

525
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 1: is hottest? And do you find guy fiery hot? I

526
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: would let him literally dip his hand in Thousand Island

527
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: dressing and fist me. Uh So to answer that question, yeah, obviously,

528
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: Larry is the hottest. Uh. That is, of course Kevin

529
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: Kevin James. I think Kevin James is deeply hot. I

530
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: felt this way for a long time and I still have. Trev.

531
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: I do believe you that you're a long time listener,

532
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: but I do want to say if you were a

533
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: real long time listener, you would not be wondering which

534
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:52,520
Speaker 1: of the two SAM find the most attractive. Yeah. Maybe

535
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: maybe you're listening, but maybe you're not active listening, if

536
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: that makes any sense. I think that my homework for

537
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: Trevi is to start really listening and learning do the work.

538
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 1: Drev okay. And there's a there's a coda to this email,

539
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: which is do I find guy very hot? Um? Honestly

540
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: I think no, I think, which is weird. That's a

541
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: kind of a weird turn for me. I think I

542
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: can work to sexualize him if I want to, But

543
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 1: you have to put in the work sexualizing guy. Fear.

544
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:27,919
Speaker 1: You have to put in the work. But one time

545
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: Misha went his guy theory for Halloween and it was

546
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: like a very realistic, you know, riz dy costume and

547
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: it was like, whoa, this actually is like scary to

548
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 1: me and kind of not hot. Really, I thought that

549
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 1: was going to go in the opposite direction. No, it

550
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: really didn't do it for me. I mean, maybe maybe

551
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 1: I've grown and I've learned and I've listened, so maybe

552
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: maybe now I could turn that into some sort of

553
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: fucked up role play, but it was not. Um, fourish

554
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: five is years ago. Well, Sam, my homework to you

555
00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 1: is to try really hard to turn Nisha dre Sing

556
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: his guy Fierry into funked up role play. If you

557
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:06,399
Speaker 1: want to put your money where your mouth is, Okay,

558
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: oh wait, no there is, he said. This is still Trev. Also,

559
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: I also watched Chuck and Larry when it came out

560
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,720
Speaker 1: because I wanted to see Chuck and Larry have sex.

561
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 1: It's part of growing up to be into bears culture.

562
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: According to Trev, the movie Wild Hogs with John Travolta

563
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: had some very homo erotic scenes. By the way, if

564
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,439
Speaker 1: you're looking to add to the Stradio Lab movie list, Trev,

565
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,439
Speaker 1: I just want to say thank you so much. I'm

566
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: gonna check out the film Wild Hogs now, and we're

567
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: gonna I'm we're gonna discuss Okay, next question, Oh, jem Mapel, Okay, Jemmapel.

568
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: Ladies Jamapel, Jessica, My question for you and maybe also

569
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 1: a guest you wish, you wish just us baby is Oh,

570
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 1: this is a good one. How do I tell my

571
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: parents apart? They're both just old and grumpy and straight,

572
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: so I always get confused. Thanks Jessica, with a y.

573
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: I think this question is so beautiful. It really is. Um,

574
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, how would I'm thinking about my parents? Okay,

575
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: so both of us, Sam, your parents are heterosexual and married. Correct? Okay,

576
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,799
Speaker 1: as your mind. I think if I had to tell

577
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 1: them apart, if I had to find like a heuristic

578
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 1: to use in order to tell them apart, what it

579
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: would be. Um? And I do think, well, my mom smells.

580
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 1: My mom uses a lot of kind of like um

581
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,919
Speaker 1: nice beauty products, so she always smells good. She also

582
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,399
Speaker 1: has gorgeous blonde hair. My dad, on the other hand,

583
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 1: is bald and smells neutral. Yeah. I would say a

584
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: cool test to say, um, what can I get you

585
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 1: to drink? And if they say wine, then it's your mom.

586
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: And if they say, um, I'll go make the drinks,

587
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: then it's your dad. Yeah. Okay, so our three answers

588
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: are smell them notice their hair? And ask them for

589
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 1: a drink. Yeah. Next question is Hello. Knowing that this

590
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 1: podcast is NYC gay comedy centric, how do you feel

591
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: about international listeners. It's odd listening all the way from

592
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 1: the Mideast, but as you know, straight culture has no borders.

593
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 1: This is from Fara, Well Farah, I mean, I think

594
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 1: one of the we can see are a little peak

595
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 1: behind the curtain is when we use our the platform

596
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: on which we upload our our our episodes, we can

597
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: see kind of where our listeners are. In fact, we

598
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,959
Speaker 1: have a lot of international listeners in the Middle East,

599
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,880
Speaker 1: but also in but also Europe and Australia and Africa

600
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: and many other places. And um, as you said, trade

601
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,399
Speaker 1: culture doesn't have any borders, which is honestly shocking when

602
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 1: people are listening in anywhere that isn't the borough of Brooklyn.

603
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,799
Speaker 1: I'm I'm in shock. I do wish I have to

604
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 1: say a fair If you want to send a follow up,

605
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 1: I would love to know where specifically in the Middle

606
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: East you are, because in my mind I'm like, if

607
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 1: I were to tell someone, oh, hello from a listener

608
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 1: in I wouldn't say in North America, you know, I

609
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,360
Speaker 1: would say from New York City. Greatest city in the world,

610
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: the Big Apple, Big Apple, the city that never sleeps.

611
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 1: You would love to know where exactly the Middle East

612
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 1: you are, and UM, I would also say, and also,

613
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,359
Speaker 1: just go ahead and send your address. We'll dockx your

614
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: Just please send us your address and we will dox

615
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 1: you live on air. Next question, UM, this is a

616
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:42,800
Speaker 1: straight shooter. UM from our good pal Daniel. UM. Peace

617
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: on Earth or goodwill towards men? This is a really

618
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 1: tough one. How can you have one without the other?

619
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 1: Are they mutually exclusive? We'll see. We're already losing at

620
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: our own game. We're asking follow up questions. Oh my god,

621
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: it's so hard. It is. Okay, I'm gonna say. I'm

622
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: going to say peace on Earth. I mean I have

623
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 1: to agree with you because the men feel so gendered

624
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: right now. No, I don't. This is not about gender

625
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: in factor. Next question, what are the sexualities of email domains?

626
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: Is Gmail straight or lesbian? My friend and I are

627
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:27,439
Speaker 1: in an argument about that one in particular. Mm hmm.

628
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: I've always seen Gmail as like sort of like the

629
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 1: straight guy who works in marketing, Like he dresses like

630
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 1: well but plainly, but he is still straight. I think

631
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: Outlook is lesbian. Yes, absolutely, and also we should say

632
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: this is from Claire, so I think Outlook is lesbian.

633
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:56,839
Speaker 1: Gmail is straight straight but like works in tech and

634
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:01,280
Speaker 1: Yahoo male is a gay man that listens to see. Yes,

635
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: I don't need to change. I'm fine. Yeah, okay, great,

636
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: same person. Do you even like making this podcast? Is

637
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 1: it going the way you anticipated? Since this is such

638
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,760
Speaker 1: a metal podcast, do you even consider that you have fans?

639
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: And if so, what is their perceived relationship to all

640
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: that the podcast is? What part do they play in

641
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: the cinematic universe of Stradio Lab. That is an incredible question. Um,

642
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 1: I mean earnestness. First, I do like making this podcast.

643
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: It is going I'd say better than I anticipated. Than anticipate,

644
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 1: I think we are. I think what happened with the

645
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: podcast and correct me if you think I'm wrong, is

646
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: like at first we had no expectations. Then I feel

647
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: and we in fact recorded a few episodes that were

648
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: like that we thought we weren't being so funny and

649
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: and we ended up not releasing them, and we were

650
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,319
Speaker 1: like still trying to find our stride. But then when

651
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 1: we recorded the episode with Marcia our our episode we released,

652
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: we really were like, oh, this is what this is

653
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: supposed to be, like we this is the vibe, Like

654
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,839
Speaker 1: we're gonna be like a little bit mean to each other,

655
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna be like a little better, We're gonna be

656
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: like a little stupid. And as soon as we got

657
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 1: on a roll, then my expectations of it suddenly became

658
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 1: really high, so that I'm now very strict with myself

659
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: when I think I'm not being funny. And there are

660
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 1: many episodes that I think I'm not funny in and

661
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 1: um yeah. We have called each other after the podcast

662
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: recording and been like, wait, was I good? I suck?

663
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 1: I suck? Right. There was one in particular where we

664
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 1: really like really bad about it afterwards and had like

665
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 1: a heart to heart and I think, um, you know,

666
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: I think some episodes are better than others. But I

667
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: do think the reason I have high expectations of it

668
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 1: is because I know we can be good and often are. Uh.

669
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: And what is our perceived relationship to the fans. I

670
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 1: guess I'm surprised there are I am surprised there are fans.

671
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: I'm happy when like we are funny. That's my goal. Um.

672
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: As we stated in the Julio episode very pitifully. Um,

673
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,959
Speaker 1: but yeah, I think I hope that. I think they're

674
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,400
Speaker 1: in on the joke in a bigger way than I expected. Yeah,

675
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 1: I think. I think it's always it's always a nice

676
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,400
Speaker 1: surprise when people see him in on the joke. Okay,

677
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: this one is from Christian Hi, Sam and George longtime listener,

678
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: first time Amelier. Despite how much of a joke podcasts

679
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: have become as a medium, do you both think there

680
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 1: is a viable future in audio based mediums? Do you

681
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,359
Speaker 1: support Dominic Petman's claim that audio based mediums provide an

682
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: impersonal intimacy that visual mediums simply do not offer in

683
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 1: an age where we are inundated with images best Christian, Wow,

684
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: I'm unplugging my microphone. I'm walking out the door. I'm

685
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,920
Speaker 1: I think that. Um, I think that's so much of

686
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: what we try to do on this podcast is, in

687
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: fact wait is, in fact make fun of the tropes

688
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 1: of podcasting and um and audio mediums. But in terms

689
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: of whether there's a future or not, I would say

690
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: we are currently in a huge podcast bubble um very

691
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 1: similar to what the blogg Is fear looked like in

692
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 1: like the early two thousand's and basically within at least

693
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,399
Speaker 1: within at most one or two years, you know, there

694
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 1: will only be like three or four companies that have

695
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: all the podcasts, and most of them will be hosted

696
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 1: by celebrities. You wanted a takedown of the podcast industry,

697
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: You've got one, bitch. Don't ask an intellectual question if

698
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: you can't handle the answer. Um, okay, this is from Ben. Uh.

699
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: It seems like you uncermoniously replaced mixed Emma with the

700
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 1: concept of Glamour Girls. Did you have a falling out?

701
00:43:55,840 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: How do max Emma feel about being replaced? Huh? Mix?

702
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: But then Ben signs it love the pod a glamour girl. Well,

703
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 1: in many ways, Um, mix Emma was a little exclusive

704
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,439
Speaker 1: because there's only one mix Emma Emma, but mix Emma

705
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 1: is a glamour Girl. Yeah, and I think like we

706
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,399
Speaker 1: opened up the circle to include everyone, even you, Ben.

707
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 1: Now that Glamour Girls are listening to the podcast, the

708
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,799
Speaker 1: sky's the limit. And I do want to say mix

709
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 1: Emma was conceived of as a concept by former guests

710
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 1: Celeste Yim current SNL writer because of their appearance on

711
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 1: this podcast and Um, whereas Glamour Girls was created by us,

712
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 1: who it feels more personal I actually and then wish

713
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:47,360
Speaker 1: we could give them back. And also Celeste did um

714
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 1: technically by the rights to mix Emma, so we are

715
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: not allowed to mention mix on this podcast at all.

716
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 1: Lest got their job on SNL because they literally like

717
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,760
Speaker 1: sent in the episode of Straight Lab where they created

718
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: mix Emma to Lauren Michaels, and then Lauren Michaels was like,

719
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 1: there's mixture. I don't think there's the most smart thing

720
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,760
Speaker 1: I've ever seen in my wife. Yeah, and then Celest

721
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 1: pulled David S. Pumpkins. It was like, any questions, Okay,

722
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: what this is from George? Uh? And actually this is

723
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: from both George and Ted. Okay, so that's actually really confusing.

724
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,240
Speaker 1: I don't know how they started a thread around us. Okay,

725
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: I would say one thing this is from This is

726
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 1: two emails from the same email address, literally the same

727
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 1: email address. One of them, though, says George, and one

728
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:46,240
Speaker 1: of them says Ted. This is this is a mystery,

729
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: and oh but I have an update. Both of them

730
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: are signed Ted. This is actually like freaking crazy. I'm

731
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 1: freaked out, Like did you I just felt like a

732
00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,280
Speaker 1: chill going down my spine. I think it's like honneck

733
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,399
Speaker 1: if you can't decide whether your name is George or Ted.

734
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: I love it because they're not like related, Like George

735
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,919
Speaker 1: and Ted are like very different names. Huh. Maybe it's

736
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: a married gay couple that shares there's so monogamous that

737
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 1: they share email address. Okay, Well, if this is going

738
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: out to the gay couple of George and Ted, I

739
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:25,760
Speaker 1: now pronounce you Georgian Ted. Um. Okay. So their question

740
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 1: is what role would you play in a train hijacking?

741
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,480
Speaker 1: Answer for each other, so as in, and then the

742
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: follow up email says, Sam, what role would George play

743
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 1: if you were to find himself a passenger in a

744
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 1: train that had been hijacked? And George, what role was stamplay? Okay,

745
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: So Sam, do you want to go first? Um? Sure?

746
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 1: Well George obviously um is some sort of first class

747
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: train writer. He's he's got his own sleeper car and uh,

748
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,720
Speaker 1: he's got a monocle and a top hat and he's

749
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 1: um writing a memoir. Are and the people pop in

750
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: and take him hostage? You are the one they take

751
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 1: hostage for hostage? Okay? Um? Okay, h m hmm, okay,

752
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:21,480
Speaker 1: I think I think, Sam, you would not get involved

753
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: and kind of like find a place to hide while

754
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:28,440
Speaker 1: it's all happening. Wow, that is iconic and that is true. Actually,

755
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:32,200
Speaker 1: this one is from Daisy. She says, we'd like your help.

756
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:34,440

00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 1: this is this is what we've all been waiting for.

779
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,840
Speaker 1: How did George and Sam first meet? Were there instant

780
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,160
Speaker 1: sparks or was it more a friend of me vibes?

781

782
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:26,239
Speaker 1: I can, yeah, please go. So we first met at

783
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 1: a show called Stevie that Sam used to run with

784
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: past guest Marsha bell Skin Drew Anderson. I was booked

785
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 1: on the show by Drew Anderson and that's where I

786
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 1: met Sam. But I very distinctly remember that I bombed

787
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,840
Speaker 1: that show, So the first time I did really poorly

788
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 1: on stage. Um I remember that. I also remember well

789
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 1: because Drew and Sam were both people like kind of

790
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 1: like knew of but had never met, and I wanted

791
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:54,879
Speaker 1: to impress them because I was new to New York.

792
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 1: This was over three years ago, and um, yeah, and

793
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: I bombed our remember our friend Blair Saki was there

794
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 1: and I bombed first and she was like, oh wow,

795
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,239
Speaker 1: like the audience like is really tight, and then she

796
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 1: got up an absolutely crushed. Wow. Was that when it

797
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: was that our wicked lady? Or was it okay? Yeah?

798
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,759
Speaker 1: Was that lady? That was a weird show, Like there

799
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:21,080
Speaker 1: were like it would be like hits and mrs wait,

800
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 1: do you know what else? That was the show that

801
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 1: my ex came to with his like straight coworker, and

802
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,759
Speaker 1: so his straight coworker was just watching me bomb with

803
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:34,080
Speaker 1: gay material. It was actually a very dark, very dark night. Well,

804
00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but I will say I knew of Sam

805
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 1: before I met him. I was very like, how can

806
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: I ask how? Yeah? Through Twitter? Oh interesting? Um, I'm

807
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,920
Speaker 1: pretty sure. Yeah I had. I had followed you before

808
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:55,200

809
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: was like excited to meet you. And then I booked

810
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:00,960
Speaker 1: you on my show and fact, I still I think

811
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,200
Speaker 1: you did fine. But I do remember when you did

812
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:07,200
Speaker 1: my show. That was also really bad night for our show. Wait,

813
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 1: like that was one of our worst attended. I used

814
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 1: to host a show called Living for It um in

815
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:18,440
Speaker 1: Bushwick and when you did it with with with Yes,

816
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 1: Oh my god, there were like four people there. Yea

817
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 1: it was like, and that it was after we had

818
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 1: had like a few weeks in a row where it

819
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 1: had been like a full house, and then when the

820
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: night you did it, there were truly like four people,

821
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: and you were also trying to do like music, like

822
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:34,879
Speaker 1: you needed an audience for the things you were doing.

823
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,239
Speaker 1: I had fun, though, I remember like having fun. It

824
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: was fine. I actually remember that's when I think that

825
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:45,360
Speaker 1: was like I feel like we were like, that was

826
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:49,719
Speaker 1: the first time we like hung out. Yeah, we chatted, yeah,

827
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 1: and that I so I had forgotten that that was

828
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:57,839
Speaker 1: your show because I had done like Anya's other show

829
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:02,719
Speaker 1: that same week and it was also lightly attended, and

830
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:06,319
Speaker 1: they were really like apologetic both times, and I was like,

831
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:09,879
Speaker 1: it's totally fine, but they it became like a thing

832
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:13,080
Speaker 1: where it was like you could see like they were embarrassed,

833
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:14,840
Speaker 1: and I was like, I fully get it. I have

834
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 1: put on many a show that is lightly attended, and

835
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 1: ye know, I know. It's honestly one thing I don't

836
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 1: miss about pre COVID New York. Yes, queen um uh instant.

837
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 1: And I would also to this question, I would say

838
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: they were not instant sparks. I would say it was

839
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 1: very gradual. Yeah. Yeah, I mean I will say I

840
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 1: I think and correct me if I brock. I think

841
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 1: we both hopefully liked each other's comedy at least. Um.

842
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:46,879
Speaker 1: I also think our comedy is different enough that neither

843
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: of us feel threatened by the other, which is important. Yeah,

844
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 1: I think that's true. Um. Yeah, I also think I'm

845
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 1: I'm not you know, I think I'm not a huge

846
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,359
Speaker 1: astrology queen, but I am kind of cancer vibes. Are

847
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 1: you cancer? I'm a cancer. You're a cancer to When

848
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 1: I meet people, I feel like I'm like, I do

849
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,799
Speaker 1: have my little shell on, and then it takes me

850
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 1: a little bit to warmer. Definitely, Okay, Graham. Um, Graham says,

851
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,720
Speaker 1: what about straight culture do you see being ironically adopted

852
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: by the queers in the near future? Oh, that's a

853
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:25,920
Speaker 1: really good question. And then the second one is what

854
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 1: about straight culture? So the question is, yeah, what which

855
00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: parts of straight culture are going to be ironically adopted

856
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:35,000
Speaker 1: by queers and which parts of queer culture are going

857
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:38,759
Speaker 1: to be ironically appropriated or adopted by straits. I think

858
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 1: we're already starting to get into like goatees being like

859
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:49,160
Speaker 1: hot for queer men. Yeah, uh, which I unfortunately do

860
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: find hot. I don't want to. I don't find them fashionable,

861
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:57,799
Speaker 1: but I find them like hot. Okay, but like a

862
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 1: full beard, I prefer it all honey. I like like

863
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:08,760
Speaker 1: a got really feels like, okay, you are my like teacher,

864
00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 1: freshman year of high school, and like I'm your little student,

865
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 1: and like put on some khakis and let's do it. Okay.

866
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 1: I mean I have to say. One thing that's coming back,

867
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:21,640
Speaker 1: and this has been a long time coming, but it

868
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 1: feels very I'm I'm of two minds about it. Is

869
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 1: uggs are coming back fully, and I think it really

870
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 1: is one of those things that it's so crazy to

871
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 1: now have lived through it fully twice. Yeah, I feel

872
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 1: kind of crazy. It feels strange, especially because like maybe

873
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:49,120
Speaker 1: the ironic, the ironic uggs already happened, Like how many

874
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: times have eggs gone in and out? Even ironically, I

875
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 1: can't think about it. We can measure time through us

876
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 1: and then and then the other. It's or like how

877
00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:00,400
Speaker 1: many times because now people are starting to dress prep

878
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 1: school students again, which also already happened. There's something about

879
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 1: the how it all happens, like clockwork, that's very sinister

880
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 1: to me. It's also very like, I'm sorry, but it's

881
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,600
Speaker 1: very top down. It's not it's not like the people

882
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:19,440
Speaker 1: started wearing like someone decided bugs are good again. So

883
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:23,359
Speaker 1: it's it's it's evil for sure. Also, what of what

884
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 1: queer thing will be adopted by this by straight people?

885
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,359
Speaker 1: I have an answer at least per Mitten. I think

886
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,600
Speaker 1: like Mesh, Oh yeah, I think Mesh is going to

887
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:37,040
Speaker 1: be a straight thing in the It's gonna be yeah,

888
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 1: in the coming years. I mean, I have to say

889
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 1: my answer is literally homosexuality. Like I read about how

890
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 1: TikTok like literally straight TikTok stars. The whole thing is

891
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:52,279
Speaker 1: that they like make out with each other and like

892
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,680
Speaker 1: pretend they're gay as a as a not as a

893
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:57,520
Speaker 1: joke in the way that it's bad, but as like

894
00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 1: as like a a kind did joke or whatever. And

895
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:05,600
Speaker 1: so I think that, um, and this is nothing new,

896
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:09,839
Speaker 1: Like there's a there's literally like a book about straight

897
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 1: men who have sex with one another, which I now

898
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 1: can't remember what it's called. But I do think literally

899
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 1: straight men are going to have start having sex with

900
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:20,000
Speaker 1: one another. This is a question from Sarah. Is there

901
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 1: a piece of culture not trying to invoke the last

902
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 1: culture inst does universe here that is purely straight. My

903
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,320
Speaker 1: mind wanders to a Shawn Mendez or Pixar's Onward perhaps

904
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,120
Speaker 1: as father. Really, affection is almost certainly absent from the

905
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:35,400
Speaker 1: community as a whole, aside from a stray Stanley Tucci

906
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 1: type thoughts. Looking forward to hearing your input is there? Yeah,

907
00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: this is difficult because when things are you know, you

908
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:47,440
Speaker 1: want to say, you know, football, but then of course

909
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 1: there's such a queerness to hyper masculine and is the

910
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 1: hyper masculinity, So you basically have to find the most

911
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: down the line bland thing you can think of. I'm

912
00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 1: thinking like homeownership, Yeah, that's true, but you know what,

913
00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:07,319
Speaker 1: though homeownership, then I'm immediately jumping to like an architectural

914
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:11,640
Speaker 1: digest feature and that's gay. Yeah, but part of me like,

915
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: you're you're correct, But the architectural digest feature is like

916
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:20,040
Speaker 1: do they even really live there or did they like,

917
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:22,240
Speaker 1: you know, did they like is that like their vacation

918
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 1: home that they like? Bide us bruce up or like yeah,

919
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 1: I could say sorry, go ahead. I'm reflecting, like thinking

920
00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:38,640
Speaker 1: thinking smaller, like an open house, an open house, yes, yes,

921
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,080
Speaker 1: an open house with like, and then the realtor has

922
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:45,120
Speaker 1: baked freshly baked cookies and then she kind of put

923
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,400
Speaker 1: someone aside and she's like, I always make cookies because

924
00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 1: it makes it smell like home. And on top of that,

925
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,760
Speaker 1: I want to just say the state of Ohio. Yeah,

926
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure there are gay people there, and

927
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 1: I love them and I think they're so beautiful and strong.

928
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 1: But the state of Ohio, to me is like the

929
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,640
Speaker 1: straightest place on earth. I'm googling gay people from Ohio.

930
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, who who's gay there? I can't even say,

931
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: Like a dark news story came up, zero results found. Um, okay, well,

932
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 1: next question. Next question, This is from Alex. Who do

933
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:25,760
Speaker 1: you think is the father's son, holy ghost and Pope

934
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:30,640
Speaker 1: of the Sex and the City Girls. Um? I mean,

935
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 1: I do think Carrie's father. Unfortunately Carrie has to be father.

936
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 1: I think Miranda's the son. See I would say Miranda's

937
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:44,840
Speaker 1: pope because like business, she's like a business bitch, that's true.

938
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 1: And then I think I would pope is Charlotte because

939
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 1: it's like turning it into like you know, a religious

940
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:59,960
Speaker 1: organized religion, a spirit narc. Yeah, so Charlotte is Pope. Uh, Miranda.

941
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:03,440
Speaker 1: Why would Miranda be son. I just feel in relation

942
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:06,040
Speaker 1: to the father, like if carries the father, then like

943
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 1: the like Miranda's like her closest friends. So I was

944
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 1: like Maranda, I mean Samantha. So we were in agreement there. Okay,

945
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 1: that's fine. I'm I'm satisfied with that. Okay. Next, Oh god, okay,
