WEBVTT - "FEELING THORNY!" w/ ERIN FOLEY! 0:00:00.520 --> 0:00:05.880 Hello, my bunnies, it's artist. Okay. Before we get to 0:00:06.000 --> 0:00:09.879 this week's episode, I just have to say, oh my god, 0:00:10.119 --> 0:00:15.800 you guys, thank you so much. First of all, for 0:00:15.840 --> 0:00:19.560 everybody who came to the live show, the one that 0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:24.200 was on Dynasty Typewriter. It was so fun Dynasty Typewriter, 0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.440 which is where we did our draft picks. And the 0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:29.960 only reason I don't think we're gonna do draft picks 0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:31.960 for the season is because we know who she picks 0:00:32.520 --> 0:00:34.320 and then we know that tis coming and we don't 0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:38.400 know her batch of guys, so, you know, is the 0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:41.400 upside down. All bets are off. But it's the same 0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:43.320 theater that we did it at, and I don't know 0:00:43.320 --> 0:00:45.040 if you guys watched it, I feel like a lot 0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:48.280 of you were there. Um, they do such a great 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:54.000 job making you know, what is essentially for most people 0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:57.000 would be the equivalent of like a Zoom show. Actually, 0:00:57.280 --> 0:00:59.680 to me, I think I felt like I got to 0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:02.000 have a real life book launch. I feel like I 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:04.920 was at a party with my friends. I felt excited 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.360 that you guys were all there, and um, you know, 0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:11.920 I thought Lauren Lbkus was a delight. Brian Sofie, Debbie, 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:15.920 Ryan Bachelor of the Yarra, Benedict, my brother, all of it. 0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:17.920 So it really meant so much to me. And but 0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:21.959 even bigger than that, just the support of everybody just 0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:25.160 through this whole book process. And I bet a lot 0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:27.640 of you have them in your hot little pause right now, 0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:30.800 and it just means so much to me. I mean truly, 0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:33.560 just through this whole journey, I have not felt alone, 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:36.440 even though I have not left my garage. And I 0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:40.240 hope you all love it. Please email him let me 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.520 know if you guys have finished it and you liked it. 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.399 I feel free to leave a review on Amazon or 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:49.520 good Reads. That's helpful. And I'm thinking, I mean, look, 0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.560 I'm such a psycho about COVID. I'm so afraid of it. 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.360 I've really been socially distancing, but like I mean, I 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.440 want I can't believe I can't go on tour. I 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.800 can't believe I can't go meet every buddy. So my brain, 0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:04.560 you know, I was I've been trying to figure it out. 0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:08.480 I'm like, there's got to be away. There's gotta be 0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:11.040 a way, at least in the southern California area like 0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.880 that I could do a small mini little miss, little 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:17.520 Compton outdoor book tour, Like there's gotta be a way 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:20.320 that I could go to like indie bookstores during the day. 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:25.160 Do you like in the parking lot signing socially distanced 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:27.919 or like a I could park my freaking car, put 0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:29.960 a little table out you guys do like a drive 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:34.040 by book signing and then maybe like do a show 0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:37.919 outside at night socially just I don't know.

I 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:44.800 don't know, but I'm like, there's got to be away 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:48.880 that I could a not get COVID, be not get 0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:52.520 and spread COVID. Like there's gotta be a way to 0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:55.480 do an outdoor book tour because it's killing me that 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:59.160 I can't go see all of you.

I have never watched the shows 0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:12.000 discussed by the hysterical host and her rotating panel of guests. 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:16.040 It doesn't matter.

I 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:46.279 love that this is this is your podcast, and I'm 0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:48.840 I'm so thankful that we are of service to you 0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:50.880 and that you're a part of our journey.

And 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:57.360 that's the best thing is that I like to think 0:06:57.480 --> 0:06:59.919 visually you couldn't pick any of them out of a lineup. 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.840 Someday when we do a live podcast again, I would 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:06.800 love to flash have some of you guys, there put 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:11.360 on screen like four people, one of whom has never 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:15.320 actually been in the franchise, and have you guess, or 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:17.640 maybe have three people not in the franchise one person 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:19.120 in the franchise. I think that's how we do it, 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.600 and then you have to guess which person on the 0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:25.280 screen was actually in the franchise. I think that's a 0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:28.320 really fun game for our listeners to listen and don't watch. 0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:33.280 Here's another here's another review that I loved five stars, 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:39.320 five stars subject Feeling Thorny by A five one two.

So it's not so because I'm so a 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:16.920 d d um Aaron Folly. First of all, I've missed you. 0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:19.120 Congratulate for those of you out there who don't know. 0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:23.360 Aaron Foley is now a staff writer on One Day 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:31.840 at a Time One Again. Well, Gloria Stephen did the 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:35.640 reboot of it and it's awesome. What was the original one? 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:40.680 That's all I know. I want you to know that 0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:43.080 for this reboot I went into audition to play the 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:46.360 part of Schneider. No did I read that with you? 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:48.440 Did I run it with you? No? You never told 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:50.600 me that I went in. We ran. I ran with 0:14:50.680 --> 0:14:53.240 Jordan's they I got the sides, and I was like, 0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:58.200 surely there's been missed for those kids, kids, children out 0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:00.680 there listening. Back in the day, there was a show, 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.080 an original version of One Day at a Time. There 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:08.080 was this gentleman named Schneider who were like a denim jeans, 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:12.000 denim vest. He always had like a like a Burt 0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:15.320 Reynolds mustache and like a cigarette rolled into his sleeves 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:19.760 and uh, I'm so sorry, I can't hand a hand 0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:23.160 the handyman and um and like. But he was like 0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:26.600 the epitome of masculinity. And I was like, why would 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:30.840 you pass? Why why? Obviously I'm not going to book this, 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:32.480 and they're like, well, we might go another way. And 0:15:32.480 --> 0:15:34.560 then I had to go in an audition to play 0:15:34.640 --> 0:15:38.200 Schneider and like, of course they cast a man. Well, 0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:40.920 I think I can't speak for them because I would 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:45.160 have cast you as the anybody thank you? Um uh. 0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:48.280 But the whole it was such a you know, hard 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:50.760 right reboot that I think they were. You know, it 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:53.840 went from you know, white people in the Midwest to 0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:57.520 a Cuban American family network park. So I think they 0:15:57.560 --> 0:16:00.040 were just trying to turn everything on its head. But 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:04.640 it's Uh, it's been a dream and I'm gonna try 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:08.280 to now right anything I can to get art and 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:10.200 Marine on the show. Oh my god, thank you so much. 0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:14.120 I could play Schnider's like his twin his speaking of twins, 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:15.960 and we'll get so. For those of you who are like, 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:18.840 why why are we doing this? Why why a side 0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:22.480 offshoot podcast art and why?

You know what. You've talked about that a 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:32.720 lot in your stand up. Well, here's so. Writing the 0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:34.840 book it was an interesting thing too, because I so 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:38.320 I don't like normally to sit around think deep diving 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:41.720 thinking about like childhood in school and family and stuff 0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:44.280 like that and like, but it was an interesting process, 0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:47.439 and I'm like, I'm fascinated by how all my funny 0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:53.240 friends came to be you aliens, straight up aliens. They 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:57.199 came down right before I met. I am obsessed with 0:17:57.240 --> 0:18:03.600 your mom the best show. She doing good. No, we've 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:07.440 moved them to Texas. Happened, Yes, that happened a couple 0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:10.040 of months ago. For those people out there listening, tell 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:13.080 us a little bit about your mom. Well, I always 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:15.840 put them together barring Dick Foley. But Mary in particular 0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:20.640 is Mary Agnes Kathleen Foley's Irish name I've ever heard. Yeah, 0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:23.840 it doesn't get more Irish than that. I sometimes when 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:25.320 I say her full name, I used to put her 0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:27.639 maiden name in and then what was it? Oh? I 0:18:27.680 --> 0:18:32.000 can't say because she heard me say it one time, 0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:35.840 just like in passing, and she's like, people can then 0:18:36.080 --> 0:18:41.520 figure out and then take my money. And I was like, okay, sure. 0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:43.520 I mean if somebody's coming out a bachelor podcast to 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.480 take your mom's money, right, they really want It made 0:18:46.520 --> 0:18:50.960 me laugh so hard. But now I dropped the her 0:18:51.000 --> 0:19:01.679 maiden name for security purposes and a dollar okay, great? Um? Yeah? OK? Anyway, 0:19:01.800 --> 0:19:05.359 did you um how much of your childhood I grew 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:07.359 up in Rhode Island. It's a lot of the book 0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:10.320 is about that. How much? How much of your childhood 0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:14.000 was in Rhode Island? Move? We moved there right before 0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:17.480 my twelfth birthday, so right before seventh grade. From where 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:20.520 we went from New York to Connecticut to Rhode Island. 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:24.280 First question, new York City, Uh, Nope, not New York City. 0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:27.240 I was born in Long Island. Dad is Brooklyn mom's 0:19:27.240 --> 0:19:29.200 Long Island. They met in Manhattan, lived in Manhattan for 0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:31.080 a while. Then she was like, I'm gonna get I'm 0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:33.919 gonna have a baby. And then they moved back to 0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:37.040 Long Island because by that time my dad was like 0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:42.440 that very kind of famous merge of Long our Brooklyn 0:19:42.480 --> 0:19:48.200 people into Long Island, um whatever, families pricing neighborhood stuff. 0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:52.480 So there was kind of a big exodus and uh so, yeah, 0:19:52.560 --> 0:19:55.840 so they moved back to Long Island. Was born Long 0:19:55.880 --> 0:20:00.600 Island until four eight nine years in Kinnectic Hit then 0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:04.840 Rhode Island. But Rhode Island it's the best, right, It's 0:20:04.880 --> 0:20:08.720 the funniest state. So you were there watching patrise Woods, 0:20:09.000 --> 0:20:12.080 you were watching Mario Hilario on the local news. You 0:20:12.119 --> 0:20:17.080 were there. You were there during the Seancy the Great. 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:19.000 I talked about him in the book The Greatest Mayor 0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:21.840 of Problem. He was a convicted felon, got out and 0:20:21.960 --> 0:20:25.440 got re elected, got stuff done, dead bodies everywhere. He 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:29.160 had his He had off duty police officer drive him 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:32.479 over to his girlfriend lover's house and he beat him 0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:34.879 up with a fireplace and iron and put a cigar 0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:39.840 out on his dick. Yeah, that's what I'm talking okay, Um, 0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:43.360 And then you were also there probably the Sonny von Buelo, 0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:46.679 the von Buelo, remember that was all in the news 0:20:47.760 --> 0:20:52.240 coma that that the all the coma and all the 0:20:52.359 --> 0:20:56.879 uh you know, great Gatsby being filled in the Newport mansions. 0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:59.720 We almost got to have they were they were trying 0:20:59.800 --> 0:21:03.560 to get Um, which is of Eastwick each a little compton, 0:21:03.640 --> 0:21:05.600 and I was like this, I'm going to get discovered. 0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:09.119 And then the group the church women were like, no, 0:21:09.359 --> 0:21:12.360 there's sex scenes in the church, and so the Puritanical 0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:14.840 they shut it down and went out to Cohasset, mass 0:21:14.840 --> 0:21:17.080 And I was so I had such a grudge at 0:21:17.119 --> 0:21:20.719 Cohasset like for like fifteen years that like my chance 0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:22.560 was lost to like get to hang out with Share 0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:25.200 and Jack Nicholson is an awkward eleven year old. That 0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:28.080 was my time. Well it's still I mean right now 0:21:28.200 --> 0:21:30.960 to hang out with both of them right now. Right 0:21:31.280 --> 0:21:33.560 she looks amazing. I saw her on Dancing with the Stars. 0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:36.879 But okay, so you grew up in Rhode Island. How 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:39.119 was moving there in junior high because that's kind of 0:21:39.160 --> 0:21:42.360 a that's a tough state. Did you go to public school? Yeah, 0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:45.600 we went to UM. It was a real battle between 0:21:45.640 --> 0:21:49.080 Mary and Dick because and this is I just like 0:21:49.160 --> 0:21:52.480 to preface this next sentences. I did not know I 0:21:52.520 --> 0:21:55.959 was gay, Okay, But when we moved in seventh grade, 0:21:56.760 --> 0:22:00.440 I my mom scattered out the best public school district, 0:22:00.440 --> 0:22:03.479 and that was South Kingstown. South Kingstown Public High School 0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:08.000 was a great high school, and the neighboring one was Narragansett. 0:22:08.320 --> 0:22:11.680 I wanted to go to Narragansett because it had fast 0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:18.280 pitch softball. Again, not gay, So I was pleading the case. 0:22:18.640 --> 0:22:20.400 My dad and I were like, it's fast pitch. It's 0:22:20.400 --> 0:22:24.159 fast pitch, better school, academically, one of the best in 0:22:24.200 --> 0:22:27.480 the state. Slow pitch so boring. Right, You're like, I 0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:31.960 want fast pitch, mom. One, clearly we went with academics. 0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:33.720 Do you think he would have come out early shattered 0:22:33.760 --> 0:22:36.000 my softball? Would you have come out earlier if you? 0:22:36.200 --> 0:22:38.080 I don't know, because I definitely slow pitch for another 0:22:38.160 --> 0:22:41.440 six years. Right, Still had no idea, But I mean, 0:22:41.520 --> 0:22:45.000 that's super gay. Did you have a bay friend in 0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:47.840 high school? Oh my god, hold on, something's coming up 0:22:47.840 --> 0:22:54.320 as a feeling. No, I did the thing where I 0:22:54.680 --> 0:22:57.359 pined after a dude, and then as soon as you 0:22:57.480 --> 0:22:59.440 like me, I was like, no, get away. I did that, 0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:01.520 Like I did that for a long I was kind 0:23:01.520 --> 0:23:06.679 of like that, yeah, but I was gay rights. I 0:23:06.720 --> 0:23:08.879 think I also just had to touch low self esteem. 0:23:08.960 --> 0:23:10.800 I had a terrible dad, so I was like, I'm 0:23:10.840 --> 0:23:13.760 a monster. You can't see behind the valley. I'm only 0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:15.439 fun at a party. And then you get to know me, 0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:17.800 and I'm the worst of a garbage everybody knows it. Well, 0:23:17.840 --> 0:23:20.520 that's not even remotely true. No, no, now, I know that. 0:23:20.600 --> 0:23:22.040 I know that now, but at the time, I was 0:23:22.080 --> 0:23:24.879 like the stay away, I'm the worst. No, you have 0:23:24.960 --> 0:23:28.239 a little Compton. I didn't have a high school, so 0:23:28.400 --> 0:23:30.679 we had I went to the public school in town 0:23:31.359 --> 0:23:34.480
