34
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,640
you know, doing these these skits that I have no

35
00:02:07,719 --> 00:02:09,520
clue what's going. But then there was like, you know,

36
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,840
there was some good guests. I mean the audience looked

37
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:17,120
like every single face in the audience was an A lister.

38
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:26,159
I mean, Robert de Niro, Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy, Baldwin, Yeah, Chaer,

43
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 2: Just seen clips of it online. H Like I saw

00:02:42,719 --> 00:02:46,080
the Bill Murray did a whole like weekend update like

45
00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:50,960
ranking them. I saw Will Ferrell singing the Kendrick Lamar song. Yeah, yeah,

46
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,360
so I've just seen little clips of it.

47
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 3: And then Adam Sandler I think did a He did

48
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,120
a I didn't see it yet, but did a musical

49
00:02:59,199 --> 00:03:03,039
number was supposed to be really touching, like you know,

50
00:03:03,159 --> 00:03:05,439
kind of going through the whole fifty years and then

51
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,120
also highlighting you know, some of the cast that passed away,

52
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,280
Phil Hartman and you know Farley and all that. So yeah,

53
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,520
I mean I think it. I'm gonna finish watching it

54
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:16,280
look pretty good.

55
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: I will watch it. I there was some like you know,

56
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,400
kind of like you know, you know snl is.

57
00:03:23,439 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 3: It's like their skits were kind of Steve Martin did

58
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:31,560
the opening, which he did pretty good, but yeah, but

59
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:36,120
the musical acts like Eddie Vedder played and Miley Cyrus

60
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,800
did nothing compares to you you know, like it just

61
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,039
was like a nice like homage from things. Paul Simon

62
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:48,159
opened with Sabrina Carpenter opened the show homeward bound.

63
00:03:48,439 --> 00:03:50,759
Speaker 1: It was just it was kind of had that perfect

64
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,039
like nostalgic feel, you know, and like seeing all the

65
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:55,199
old faces from the past.

66
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,439
Speaker 3: My god, everybody's old now, it's just crazy. Even Steve

67
00:03:58,479 --> 00:03:59,280
Martin is old.

68
00:04:00,039 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: Oh he's so old.

69
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're I mean, they're all you know. Bill Murray

70
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:07,560
I think was on. I didn't see it yet, but

71
00:04:07,599 --> 00:04:11,800
I'm sure the Weekend Update thing was probably a long

72
00:04:11,879 --> 00:04:14,960
segment if they had to go through all the anchors,

73
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,959
you know, like Ackroyd and what's her name, Jane Kirk Curtain. Yeah,

74
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,639
so yeah, I'm just curious if you guys watched it.

75
00:04:24,759 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: I watched, well, I should say I attempted to watch

76
00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:33,759
the Saturday Saturday Night the movie. Oh, the Saturday Night

77
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,959
Live movie. It's called really, it's called Saturday Night It's

78
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:44,279
about it's a biopic, not a biopic. It's a biopic

79
00:04:44,399 --> 00:04:48,759
about the kind of a bio. It's not even maybe

80
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,079
it's not a it's opposed to depict the first night

81
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:57,439
that the premiere of the show, right, and all the

82
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,720
stuff that was going on that night. But the energy

83
00:05:00,759 --> 00:05:04,399
of the movie it's just got this weird like it's

84
00:05:04,439 --> 00:05:06,560
everything I don't like in a movie. Yeah, and I

85
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,240
was trying to like it because is it new. I'll

86
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,279
tell fairly new came out like a couple of months ago.

87
00:05:12,879 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 3: So they're like playing the main people that were in

88
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:17,480
the first.

89
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,319
Speaker 1: He's like, somebody's playing Chevy Chase. It's literally the first

90
00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:24,160
night the first show. So they got a guy playing

91
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:28,279
Garrett Morris and they've got somebody playing yeah, Chevy Chase

92
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,480
and Billy Crystal. The somebody does a really good Billy

93
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,519
Crystal impression. It was it started out. We were kind

94
00:05:35,519 --> 00:05:38,680
of really excited to watch it. Here's what happened, What happened,

95
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:44,160
what happened. So we wanted originally because Sadie and Xander

96
00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:48,040
like Saturday Night Live and they have you know, as

97
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,879
I've said, we've watched the Colin Jost and Michael Cha

98
00:05:52,199 --> 00:05:56,399
specials where they make each other do the jokes. Yeah,

99
00:05:56,519 --> 00:05:58,959
so we've watched, but we've we used to watch it

100
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,360
a lot, but there's so many it's so hit or miss.

101
00:06:01,639 --> 00:06:04,560
As we're discussing, but sometimes you're just like, oh God,

102
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,319
that episode was so bad, and then we spend our

103
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,360
time John and I go like, oh my god. But

104
00:06:09,439 --> 00:06:12,199
the old in the old days, it was like this,

105
00:06:12,439 --> 00:06:14,439
and there was this, and oh, let me tell you

106
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,399
about this sketch. Oh, let me tell you about Happy

107
00:06:16,399 --> 00:06:19,439
fun Ball. But the commercials were so much funnier and

108
00:06:19,879 --> 00:06:23,560
you know, okay, So the point is we were like,

109
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,680
let's as a family watch Saturday night the movie. But

110
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:31,360
like you know, it's really hard to tie these kids

111
00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:34,519
down to like every time we're like, hey, guys, want

112
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,839
to watch a movie tonight, they're like maybe, and then

113
00:06:37,879 --> 00:06:41,680
something else comes up. So finally the other night and

114
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,639
I will tell you about this too, but John had

115
00:06:43,639 --> 00:06:48,319
the flu for all week and he was I made

116
00:06:48,399 --> 00:06:50,759
him sleep in the other room. I made him isolate

117
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,120
because I was like, oh, hell no, I'm not getting

118
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,560
the flu. So this was the first night I invited

119
00:06:55,639 --> 00:06:58,639
him that he could come back in the bedroom and

120
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,079
he was like, I just want to watch TV with you.

121
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,000
And there was we were trying to look for something

122
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,079
to watch and we saw that movie and he was like, oh,

123
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,160
I really want to watch it, but you know, I

124
00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:10,360
feel bad because we said we'd watch it with Xander

125
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,519
and I was like, Foxander, he's never gonna like and

126
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:16,879
oh and Sadie came in and she's like, yeah, I

127
00:07:16,879 --> 00:07:20,839
saw it and She's like, I didn't love it. So

128
00:07:21,079 --> 00:07:23,360
I was like, so, see, Xander can watch it on

129
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,759
his own, let's watch it. So anyway, there was all

130
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,360
this build up. We start watching it and it's the

131
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:34,720
pacing of it. It has this lout like this jazz music.

132
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,199
Do you know movies that are like almost everything felt

133
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,079
like it was a dream. Yes. So it had this

134
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:46,800
book book music behind it, and everything was like and

135
00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:48,600
now we're over here, and now we're in this person's

136
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,879
dressing room and now we're talking to this person and

137
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,680
it's all and then it keeps time stamping, like ten pm,

138
00:07:55,079 --> 00:07:57,399
you know, and then it's like ten thirty pm and

139
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,199
like reading. And finally John and I looked at each

140
00:08:01,199 --> 00:08:04,680
other and he was like, I just don't understand what

141
00:08:04,759 --> 00:08:07,480
this movie is. Like this the pacing, it just feels

142
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:10,959
so all surreal. And I was like, I know, it's

143
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,000
not that enjoyable and he was like, it's really not.

144
00:08:13,279 --> 00:08:15,600
And I was like, well, you know what, it's your

145
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,399
first night back in the bedroom. I was like, if

146
00:08:18,399 --> 00:08:21,240
we're not liking it, like we're not at a movie theater,

147
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,240
walk away, yeah, and he was like okay, And so

148
00:08:25,279 --> 00:08:27,560
we made the decision we were like halfway through the

149
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,160
movie and I was really not picking up. It's not

150
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,039
I didn't we didn't like it.

151
00:08:32,279 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 3: That's the worst when you're watching, when you go to

152
00:08:34,519 --> 00:08:36,960
a movie and you're just if you're not into it,

153
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:41,200
or if you're not invested in it, then what why bother?

154
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:42,919
Speaker 1: You just call it a day.

155
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 3: There's so many movies that I walked out of in

156
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:51,080
my lifetime because my ex didn't want to just hang

157
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:51,679
out anymore.

158
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: Like it was just like do I you know, if

159
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,039
you don't care about the characters, you're out. You know.

160
00:08:57,159 --> 00:08:59,679
I wish that movie had been about the first season,

161
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,200
you know. I just don't think there was enough there

162
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,600
there to do the first to do the premiere episode.

163
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,960
I feel like if you did the first season, that's iconic, right,

164
00:09:09,159 --> 00:09:12,600
Like we all know who those people are. Did John

165
00:09:12,639 --> 00:09:16,720
Belushi's story, the Chevy Chase story, Like you see the

166
00:09:16,759 --> 00:09:19,440
first season and you can depict what goes on. Even

167
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,279
if it was a documentary, I think that would be

168
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:26,240
freaking cool. Interviews with like a real deep dive kind

169
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,200
of style. Yeah, that's what I thought I was getting.

170
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:33,679
Maybe was like mm hmm, but yeah, oh that's a

171
00:09:34,279 --> 00:09:38,039
that's a shame. Or what if they made a series

172
00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:40,440
they called it Saturday Night and it was like an

173
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,759
eight episode thing, right the first season, that would be

174
00:09:43,759 --> 00:09:46,879
cool and it was. It could be with actors. It

175
00:09:46,879 --> 00:09:51,000
could be what they're doing with the Chevy, somebody playing Chevy.

176
00:09:50,759 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 3: Chase, like that would have been better. Yeah, that would

177
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,039
have been better. Well that's a shame.

178
00:09:57,879 --> 00:10:00,159
Speaker 1: But yeah, I do have nostalgia for the show, but

179
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:02,759
I feel like you where I'm like, I haven't watched

180
00:10:02,759 --> 00:10:07,440
it so long that consistently. Yeah, that's why I had to.

181
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,799
Speaker 3: Like, there was some skit where what's her name from Bride'smaid?

182
00:10:12,039 --> 00:10:15,799
I love her, Christen Wig, Yeah, I didn't, And and

183
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,039
Kim Kardashian was in it anyway, it was Lawrence welk uh,

184
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,879
I think it was Lawrence Welks skit it was anyway,

185
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:29,600
and the it was Scarlett Johanson, Kim Kardashian and one

186
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,240
of the SNL skit girls came out and they were

187
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:36,759
singing and stuff, and then uh, like Kristen Wig came

188
00:10:36,759 --> 00:10:40,639
out like dressed as this weird, freaky looking character. I

189
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,440
have no idea, and it could be a reoccurring skit

190
00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:44,639
that they must have done.

191
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: But if I've never seen it, like the Something Sisters. Yeah, yeah,

192
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,200
I think I remember that scary but like she has.

193
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 3: No she has no hands and her hairline like she's

194
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:57,559
got a receding hairline.

195
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, what the hell is that? I don't know see

196
00:11:00,799 --> 00:11:01,120
like that?

197
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 3: And that was one of the first skits of the night.

198
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,639
I think it was the like one of the Yeah,

199
00:11:05,639 --> 00:11:07,200
I think it was the first skit.

200
00:11:07,639 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: So then also you're expecting all of these A list

201
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,639
stars that are not going to be die hard SNL

202
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,960
fans that watch every week, and then you want them

203
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,399
to be like busting over themselves laughing, right, but they're

204
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,000
probably going to also be like, the hell's right because

205
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:21,799
I'm watching you.

206
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,879
Speaker 3: So that's why the magic of fast forwarding was great,

207
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,919
like you know, just because right, I mean for fucking

208
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,120
over three hours or however long. It was like I'm

209
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,879
not going to sit there and watch all the skits,

210
00:11:32,919 --> 00:11:35,320
you know, because they were they were still kind of weak.

211
00:11:36,639 --> 00:11:37,799
Speaker 1: But it was good.

212
00:11:37,879 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 3: I mean, so far, so good from what I've seen.

213
00:11:41,519 --> 00:11:43,080
Just the star power, that's all.

214
00:11:43,519 --> 00:11:47,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's weird. It makes you feel, it makes you

215
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,879
feel some kind of way when you see people like

216
00:11:49,919 --> 00:11:54,120
Bill Murray or Steve Martin. Yeah, they're so old, I know.

217
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,519
And you're like, oh my god, well what I told

218
00:11:57,519 --> 00:11:59,480
you when we saw I told you Bill Murray was

219
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,440
on that Super Bowl commercial. I don't remember seeing, but

220
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:08,960
he looks so but yeah, yeah, it's crazy though, it

221
00:12:09,039 --> 00:12:11,080
is crazy. Is this the time where I should bring

222
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:16,240
back the story about working with Steve Martin? Yeah? Remember

223
00:12:16,519 --> 00:12:18,679
when I wrote for him for a day? I kind

224
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,360
of Do you remember this story, Kaitlin, it's been a

225
00:12:21,399 --> 00:12:22,039
long time.

226
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 2: I don't. So.

227
00:12:25,279 --> 00:12:28,759
Speaker 1: I have my friend who I met who wrote on

228
00:12:30,159 --> 00:12:32,320
Oh I met her working on whose line? Is it? Anyway?

229
00:12:32,759 --> 00:12:35,320
She's a she's like a Tonight Show writer. She wrote

230
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,000
on The Tonight Show for a long time. Somehow, Steve

231
00:12:39,039 --> 00:12:42,279
Martin was looking for people to do some stuff when

232
00:12:42,279 --> 00:12:45,759
he was on tour with Edie Brokel. He wanted some jokes,

233
00:12:45,759 --> 00:12:48,200
some banter that he would do with the crowd, and

234
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,240
he brought in a group of writers and this girl Beth,

235
00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:55,840
who's a friend of mine, who's really funny. She's also

236
00:12:55,919 --> 00:12:58,519
just a really prolific writer. She's just the kind of

237
00:12:58,519 --> 00:13:00,679
person who if you say, like, hey, I have to

238
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,919
go do this awards thing, which is true, I have

239
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,480
to go do this Awards for the Jazz for a

240
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,840
Jazz thing in the Philharmonics. I'm like, I need some jokes.

241
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,840
Like two hours later, she's like, here's two pages of

242
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:16,720
jokes and they're all funny. Yeah, and I'm like wow, wow.

243
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,360
So she brought me in. She was like, listen, Steve

244
00:13:19,399 --> 00:13:21,200
Martin's going to bring a group of us in. And

245
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,000
I pitched you and he said yes to come in

246
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,639
to write for the day. You get paid one thousand dollars.

247
00:13:27,759 --> 00:13:31,000
So it's just one day of writing one day. You're

248
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,799
gonna be there for like a few hours. He's going

249
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,279
to like serve us lunch. She's like, I've done it before,

250
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,039
so I think I did it twice. But what I

251
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,360
remember of it is how fucking serious he is. He

252
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,360
is not a funny person to be around. He is

253
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,919
very dead serious. He takes himself very serious. He's very smart,

254
00:13:53,519 --> 00:13:56,720
and he's very cultured. So you know how he's really

255
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,279
into art. Oh yeah, and he's a writer. Yeah, let

256
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,600
me stand it before I yes, but he Okay, So

257
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,440
what I know about Steve Martin is that whole character

258
00:14:08,519 --> 00:14:11,279
that he was doing was kind of making fun of,

259
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:16,000
like this is what people like about comics, he was

260
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,399
not like that at all. And it wasn't even a

261
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,919
sense of humor. It was meant to be kind of derisive,

262
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:25,320
like except that people loved it right right. They love

263
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,639
I'm a wild and crazy guy, like they started. They

264
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:33,000
loved that persona jeuz. So that became like how he

265
00:14:33,039 --> 00:14:35,720
got famous. But he apparently does not like that, and

266
00:14:35,759 --> 00:14:39,039
that is not his like actual sensibility. And if you've

267
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:44,559
read his memoir, which very much reads not like a

268
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,159
fun memoir but like an autobiography you would check out

269
00:14:48,159 --> 00:14:50,080
of the library if you were doing a book report

270
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:54,759
on Steve Martin in the sixth grade, it is real boring,

271
00:14:54,919 --> 00:14:57,919
It is real dry. It is really like and then

272
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,879
I did this, and then I went to this school

273
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,720
and then I you know, there's no jokes. You're not

274
00:15:02,759 --> 00:15:06,559
gonna laugh. But I was so excited, you know, I

275
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,960
was like, it's fucking Steve Martin. Oh my god. I

276
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,960
got really excited, and I wrote jokes and then we

277
00:15:12,039 --> 00:15:18,399
went into his like movie room about something. What did

278
00:15:18,399 --> 00:15:20,320
he need the jokes for? Were they he wanted the

279
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,840
jokes for? He was on the Bluegrass tour with eating cats,

280
00:15:24,279 --> 00:15:26,720
but like where he was playing the band back and

281
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:31,840
forth with her kind of banja between songs, like jokes

282
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:36,360
for the audience like I got yeah, like jokes that

283
00:15:36,519 --> 00:15:38,759
had to do with maybe even a song they were

284
00:15:38,799 --> 00:15:42,279
doing or bluegrass or whatever. Just jokes that because people

285
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,879
expect him to be funny, so he needed he doesn't

286
00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:48,519
want to sit around and write and act. And I'm

287
00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:50,679
sure he came up with some jokes himself. He's very

288
00:15:50,759 --> 00:15:53,159
smart and funny, but he just wanted a room full

289
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,559
of writers to come up with jokes for him. So

290
00:15:56,639 --> 00:16:00,240
we get there. He brings all the writers into for well,

291
00:16:00,279 --> 00:16:04,480
he serves us this like beautiful lunch while his like

292
00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:07,840
chef or whatever, there's a person there serves us this

293
00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:11,960
like amazing these like I mean, really nice lunch. I'm

294
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,240
already like impressed, you know, I'm already like I'm being

295
00:16:15,279 --> 00:16:17,679
paid for this like serving us lunch. Then we go

296
00:16:17,759 --> 00:16:22,639
into his movie room, his theater, and we watch the tour.

297
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,000
I think we watched a lot of the tour, and

298
00:16:27,039 --> 00:16:30,200
then we were we went into a room. Now understand

299
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,080
I had pre written some jokes, right, I wasn't thinking

300
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,480
that I was just going to be on the spot,

301
00:16:35,559 --> 00:16:38,559
Like Okay, now that I've seen I'd already watched old

302
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,080
stuff and I anyway, so then it was just like, okay,

303
00:16:42,159 --> 00:16:48,440
pitch jokes. You know, it was really scary because it sounds. Yeah.

304
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,919
I was intimidated. So every time you go to say

305
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,440
a joke to him, like you're like, oh, I've got something,

306
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,919
and then you say it, he does not crack a smile.

307
00:16:57,919 --> 00:17:01,720
He would just stare at you and go huh. And

308
00:17:01,759 --> 00:17:03,919
if he asked a question about it, you felt a

309
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,480
little bit okay, like he'd be like and then wait

310
00:17:06,519 --> 00:17:08,680
and then you say what And then sometimes he jot

311
00:17:08,759 --> 00:17:13,519
stuff down. I thought I had I I'm gonna say

312
00:17:13,559 --> 00:17:16,440
this about myself. I'm not bad at getting into the

313
00:17:16,839 --> 00:17:19,359
voice of somebody else. Like remember when I told you

314
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,480
I worked for Hollywood Squares and I wrote for Ellen

315
00:17:21,519 --> 00:17:25,279
DeGeneres as a total cunt and didn't accept any jokes

316
00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:27,799
from the lowly Hollywood Squares writers. Because she had her

317
00:17:27,839 --> 00:17:32,440
two writers, Karen kill Garriff and Karen Anderson, brand of

318
00:17:32,519 --> 00:17:35,480
her two Funny Women, Very Funny Women. Karen kil Garriff

319
00:17:35,599 --> 00:17:39,240
is the co host of My Favorite Murder, and then

320
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,279
Karen Anderson was a really funny writer, but she went

321
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,079
everywhere with these two girls, and she didn't want so

322
00:17:45,519 --> 00:17:48,160
I had to submit. I submitted jokes though, because I

323
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,759
can write in her voice, and then they would they

324
00:17:51,799 --> 00:17:55,799
would deliver them to her, only they would curate only

325
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,039
stuff they thought she'd like, and they didn't tell her

326
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,880
that they were from the Hollywood Square. They were just like,

327
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,240
here's some jokes, right, So she did some of my

328
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,880
jokes not knowing they were mine. And then Ellen DeGeneres

329
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,880
was rude to me when I met her and gave

330
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,279
me like a dead fish handshake because Karen Kilgarreff was

331
00:18:13,319 --> 00:18:15,480
my friend at the time and Karen Anderson, so they

332
00:18:15,559 --> 00:18:17,000
brought me and they're like, oh, do you want to

333
00:18:17,039 --> 00:18:19,839
meet La, And she couldn't have been more like dismissive

334
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,880
and not cared. Okay, so Steve anyway, I thought I

335
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,400
wrote some kind of funny jokes for Steve Martin, but

336
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,720
I was getting very intimidated because he was He did

337
00:18:30,839 --> 00:18:34,240
not crack a smile at all. He did not laugh,

338
00:18:34,519 --> 00:18:37,160
and it wasn't just me. He didn't laugh at anybody's jokes.

339
00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:39,880
And there was stuff that I thought was genuinely funny,

340
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,160
and then the writers all started overcompensating because he wasn't

341
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,640
giving us anything. So the writers started laughing at each

342
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,599
other's jokes too hard. It was awkward. Yeah you know,

343
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,319
oh you know who was one of the people there

344
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,799
that day, Jeff Czario. Oh really who you might know? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,

345
00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:01,440
doing something at the Corolla studios. Yeah, Jeff Cesario was

346
00:19:01,519 --> 00:19:05,799
being really funny. Jeff Cesario and I have talked since then.

347
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,039
We were like, that was so surreal because he was

348
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,039
also like holy writing for my idol.

349
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure every writer in that room, right, So

350
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,039
he had some funny jokes. How many writers are in

351
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:16,440
the room.

352
00:19:17,039 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: There were like five of us. It was David David Feldman,

353
00:19:21,279 --> 00:19:24,160
to know who he is. It was David Feldman, Jeff Cesario,

354
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:31,160
Me Beth, and another guy who I'm forgetting right now.

355
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,880
There were like five. Wasn't a ton of small group, Yes,

356
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,880
a small group. It wasn't like there were like twenty writers, right, No,

357
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,400
there was a little group of us. We're all sitting

358
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:45,680
in his living room eating sandwiches and like pitching him jokes.

359
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:53,200
So one of the jokes that I pitched him was okay,

360
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,279
it was you know, I was I would do it

361
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,599
in like comedy clubs. I tried this in comedy clubs

362
00:19:59,039 --> 00:20:00,960
and it never worked for me. So if you don't laugh,

363
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,079
don't worry about it. Nobody ever laughed when I said it,

364
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,039
but I would say, I was just in the bathroom

365
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,680
and they have this sign that says like employees must

366
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:13,400
wash their hands, Like, man, lucky, I don't work here.

367
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:21,720
That was a joke, right, So pitched that joke to

368
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,319
really nothing from the room. Later I found out that

369
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,400
he was doing that joke and it was killing. And

370
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,000
then I got to see a video of him really yes,

371
00:20:31,599 --> 00:20:34,359
and then he added something about like, oh my god,

372
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,799
I hope there's no police here. Like he added some

373
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,680
funny tag to it too, which also got a big

374
00:20:39,799 --> 00:20:42,519
l but like, you would not have known that any

375
00:20:42,599 --> 00:20:44,599
he did another He did a couple of my jokes

376
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,880
on the tour, but you would not have known that

377
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,880
he thought anything was funny because he was.

378
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,599
Speaker 3: So he never told the writers like what jokes he

379
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,119
was just you just took your jokes and then went

380
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,079
off to do with it.

381
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: Wow wow, And then I've I was obsessed with it. Afterwards,

382
00:21:01,759 --> 00:21:03,279
I was like, oh my god, I want to know

383
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,640
did he use any of my jokes? And Beth's like, yes,

384
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,279
like he did. Because Beth was like a joke machine.

385
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,759
She had so many jokes. I was like, oh my god,

386
00:21:11,799 --> 00:21:14,160
he probably loves her, you know. But she's like, no,

387
00:21:14,279 --> 00:21:17,400
he didn't use that many of mine either, So yeah,

388
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,480
you never know. That's my Steve Martin's story. Wow. But

389
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,480
let's take a break and talk about pretty litter.

390
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,079
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, this time of year, every cat is an

391
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,680
indoor cat, and when it's freezing outside, I'm an indoor

392
00:21:31,799 --> 00:21:32,880
human right.

393
00:21:32,799 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 1: Because it's it's cold, and it's really cold on the

394
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:36,799
East Coast right now.

395
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,279
Speaker 3: And then if there's one thing that can really stink

396
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,119
up your place, it's the litter box. So don't let

397
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,680
that nasty smell ruin your winter wonderland. Switch to pretty

398
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,799
litter like we all do with kiddy cats.

399
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,519
Speaker 1: It's amazing. And this stuff lasts for like a month,

400
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,400
and it turns colors to indicate early signs of potential

401
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,480
illnesses in your cat, which is very cool. Have you

402
00:21:59,519 --> 00:22:01,519
ever heard of anything. I've never said anything like that.

403
00:22:01,759 --> 00:22:03,920
It's really cool. So you can check if they have

404
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,480
like a uti or kidney issues and more, and it

405
00:22:07,599 --> 00:22:11,119
ships right to your door, so you don't ever run

Speaker 1: Yeah, so, so was your weekend? Well, everybody in the

440
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:09,920
world has the flu right now. Oh yeah, And I remember,

441
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,440
I don't know when it was, like maybe eight months

442
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,279
ago or something, some people had COVID and I was saying, like,

443
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,640
COVID is kind of like a cold now, and then

444
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,279
everybody got real mad, big mad at me, and like

445
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,319
I get that, but and I know that some people

446
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,599
get really really sick from COVID. But my experience over

447
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,640
the last few years with COVID is that when my

448
00:24:30,759 --> 00:24:33,599
kids have gotten COVID or when I had COVID, when

449
00:24:33,839 --> 00:24:36,480
it was it was it felt more like a cold,

450
00:24:36,799 --> 00:24:39,759
but the flu man that kicks your ass. Yeah, And

451
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,920
I cannot get the flu because a couple of times

452
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:44,680
in my life I've had the flu is the sickest

453
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,359
I've ever been. I almost got fired from a job

454
00:24:47,759 --> 00:24:50,240
because I was out for so long because I was

455
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,000
sick for weeks and anytime I get a cough, as

456
00:24:54,039 --> 00:24:57,279
everybody knows because they can't help but comment constantly on

457
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,519
our socials about how much my coughing irritates that I

458
00:25:00,599 --> 00:25:03,599
don't want to get a cough R. So John started

459
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:08,079
coughing and it was a telltale like fluish, like a

460
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,799
dry cough, and I was like, dude, you're sick, and

461
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,440
he was like, no, I'm not. I feel fine, like

462
00:25:13,519 --> 00:25:16,319
it just have like a little dry cough. And I'm like, yeah,

463
00:25:16,519 --> 00:25:18,880
it's not out of nowhere, like you have a cough

464
00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:21,319
because you're sick, and he was like, I really don't

465
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,240
think I'm sick. And then by that night I was

466
00:25:24,279 --> 00:25:26,559
like during the day he's like oh, I might be sick.

467
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,119
And I was like, yeah, you're gonna go sleep in

468
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,920
the other room because I do not want the flu.

469
00:25:33,519 --> 00:25:38,079
Next day he was really not feeling well, so I

470
00:25:38,319 --> 00:25:41,119
ended up the next day taking him to urgent care.

471
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,240
Sure enough, influenza a wo So he had to isolate

472
00:25:45,319 --> 00:25:48,519
the whole time. And I'm going to say this in

473
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:53,039
John's for John, he's not like you hear about these

474
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,680
men that are such babies when they're sick, and he's

475
00:25:55,759 --> 00:25:58,599
really not. He's the kind of guy that plays it down. Yeah,

476
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,440
so he's like, no, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine,

477
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,400
And I'm like, you're shivering on the couch like you're

478
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,839
really sick. It's okay, Like just be sick, just let

479
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:06,960
me take care of you, you know.

480
00:26:07,519 --> 00:26:07,559
Speaker 2: So.

481
00:26:07,799 --> 00:26:10,759
Speaker 1: But I was being, I guess, pretty extra because I

482
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,319
was always wearing a mask. You hate him. Yeah, I

483
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,039
was so serious though I do not want to get

484
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:17,759
I cannot.

485
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,599
Speaker 3: My friend, my girlfriend too cast her. I know, the

486
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,559
same thing happened to her. Her boyfriend he had the flu.

487
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,759
She banned him to the other room. Then she her

488
00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:33,119
and I volunteered at that the place to the warehouse

489
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,559
where we were packing things for the fire victims, and

490
00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:39,440
the lady that was running it was saying that there's

491
00:26:39,799 --> 00:26:43,960
there's COVID going on at the other shelter where we're

492
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,119
working at. There's COVID has been going around, but nobody

493
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,079
over here is test it. Blah blah blah blah blah. Okay,

494
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,880
So it kind of went in one ear and out

495
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:51,359
the other like.

496
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 1: So.

497
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,839
Speaker 3: Then so Suzanne's boyfriend gets the flu. He gets he's

498
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,880
got the flu. Then she starts getting like this, like

499
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,480
tingling or sort throat. So she goes to the dots,

500
00:27:01,519 --> 00:27:04,359
she goes to urgent care. They she's thinking, oh, what

501
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,759
if I get the flu whatever, They take her test

502
00:27:06,799 --> 00:27:08,599
and they're like, no, you don't have the flu, you

503
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,319
have COVID. So she got the flu and then she

504
00:27:12,519 --> 00:27:14,640
got COVID and it was the worst. She had COVID,

505
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:16,640
Like Dwight, that was our I don't know, second or

506
00:27:16,759 --> 00:27:19,680
third time maybe, and it was the worst it's ever been.

507
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,920
Oh she said she was damn like she couldn't even

508
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,839
look at her phone for like two days.

509
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,839
Speaker 1: It was bad. Yeah, I don't want you to think

510
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,039
that I am saying COVID isn't bad. I'm saying that

511
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,720
my experience going around has not been was not nearly

512
00:27:35,799 --> 00:27:37,640
as bad as when I had the flu. I've had

513
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,799
the flu three different times in my life, and it

514
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,240
was really bad. Yeah, where I thought like, just like

515
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,079
one time, I thought I was not gonna make it.

516
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,160
I mean, I was so sick from the flu and

517
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,359
the headaches I used to get from, like the sinus headaches,

518
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,400
but COVID. I the one time I got COVID. The

519
00:27:55,559 --> 00:27:59,599
early time, I hardly had any symptoms. Yeah, John was

520
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,680
kind of sick with it, and then I just didn't

521
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,799
really feel it that much at all. But I was

522
00:28:05,799 --> 00:28:09,920
also vaccinated. I do get my flu vaccines too. Yeah,

523
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,799
hopefully they don't outlaw those because they are helpful. And

524
00:28:14,319 --> 00:28:16,440
maybe that also, I have had a flu shot this year,

525
00:28:16,559 --> 00:28:19,599
so and John doesn't ever get a flu shot. He

526
00:28:19,759 --> 00:28:24,400
just doesn't. Yeah, well maybe there you go. But on

527
00:28:24,519 --> 00:28:27,599
the other hand, he did rebound after we got him

528
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,400
he got Tama flu, but then he was getting it

529
00:28:31,519 --> 00:28:34,960
was making him really crazy to be isolated. He just

530
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,400
started feeling he was like I just feel really like useless,

531
00:28:39,559 --> 00:28:41,839
and like I don't even feel sick anymore, and I'm

532
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,920
having to be back here. And I was like, yeah,

533
00:28:44,039 --> 00:28:46,599
because for the greater good of not getting the rest

534
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,960
of the house site. Yeah. Yeah, Yeah, the flu that's

535
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,960
going around is pretty bad. Weren't your kid sick?

536
00:28:52,559 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, my whole household was sick. We never like tested

537
00:28:55,519 --> 00:29:00,119
for COVID or anything, but yeah, we were all. I

538
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:01,960
didn't really get it too bad. Amy didn't really get

539
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,799
it too bad. It was mostly Blake. Eila doesn't when

540
00:29:04,839 --> 00:29:07,440
she gets sick. She doesn't normally like get that sick,

541
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,319
you know what I mean. And even she was out

542
00:29:09,359 --> 00:29:11,200
for like a whole day, and Amy's mom was.

543
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: Out for like a week.

544
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,799
Speaker 2: And also the neurovirus is going around too. Yeah, that

545
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:17,960
one is really bad.

546
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially with little kids.

547
00:29:20,839 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, the neurovirus. Yeah, we were doing like water cooler

548
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,680
the other day and Gary had her really bad. But

549
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,160
I don't think we had that. I don't know what

550
00:29:27,319 --> 00:29:30,759
we had, but it hit Blake and Amy's mom pretty bad.

551
00:29:30,799 --> 00:29:32,359
Speaker 1: But I I was weird.

552
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 2: I kind of got a little bit sick, like a cough.

553
00:29:34,519 --> 00:29:36,799
I developed cough early in the week and I got better.

554
00:29:37,279 --> 00:29:40,759
And then like one night I was watching I was

555
00:29:40,799 --> 00:29:44,359
watching Nose Faratu and which is not like the greatest

556
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,000
movie to be watching when you're like getting sick, because

557
00:29:47,079 --> 00:29:48,640
I was like starting to get cold. I was like

558
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,039
starting to get the shivers, and I was like, I

559
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,039
thought I got over this. So I had to like

560
00:29:53,519 --> 00:29:55,680
stop the movie, which is very kind of like dark

561
00:29:55,759 --> 00:29:58,319
and creepy and scary, and I just slept it off

562
00:29:58,400 --> 00:29:59,359
and I was good the next day.

563
00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:03,119
Speaker 1: What your girls do for Valentine's Day? Anything? Or did

564
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:03,680
you just did?

565
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 2: They just did school stuff?

566
00:30:04,799 --> 00:30:05,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, we didn't really.

567
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had to work all day, so we didn't

568
00:30:08,079 --> 00:30:11,000
really do much. And then they had a birthday party

569
00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:13,039
to go to on Saturday, so I was working all

570
00:30:13,119 --> 00:30:14,599
day Friday, and then took him to this little like

571
00:30:14,599 --> 00:30:15,759
amusement park on Saturday.

572
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: And you guys didn't do anything. You were in two

573
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:24,599
separate rooms. Yeah, it's I mean, we don't. I'm not

574
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:28,119
a Valdesday person. Yeah, I just don't care. Yeah, I

575
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,200

576
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,440
I'm just not a person who's like likes any kind

577
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,359
of forced. I don't want to have to go buy

578
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,119
a card and I don't need John. I know how

579
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,359
much he loves me. And so basically I was like, hey,

580
00:30:42,039 --> 00:30:45,480
happy Valentine's day. It was like happy Valentine's Day. I

581
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:45,880
love you.

582
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:47,039
Speaker 2: That was it.

583
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:52,039
Speaker 1: That was our whole exchange. That's cute. I sent Natalia flowers.

584
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,680
Oh that's so sweet.

585
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 3: Surpriser, she's still dating the guy that lives up. No, oh, no,

586
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,759
she's single. But she's been working really hard. She's been

587
00:31:06,039 --> 00:31:09,640
uh and she's not been feeling good. She's gotten the

588
00:31:09,839 --> 00:31:13,720
sickness that won't go away. Yeah, I know, I might

589
00:31:13,799 --> 00:31:15,960
go visit her this week. Maybe I'll take her to

590
00:31:16,079 --> 00:31:18,680
urgent care because she's just been like sick and just

591
00:31:18,839 --> 00:31:21,640
run down. But like going to the library and studying,

592
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,240
and so it was Valentine's dance, like I send her

593
00:31:24,319 --> 00:31:28,119
some Flowers's so sweet. I remember my dad giving me

594
00:31:28,279 --> 00:31:33,279
like a clear umbrella with like polka dotted red hearts

595
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:34,680
all over it for Valentine.

596
00:31:34,759 --> 00:31:36,119
Speaker 1: And I love that umbrella.

597
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 3: And you never think, like for a parent to do

598
00:31:38,319 --> 00:31:41,000
anything for your kids for like when they're little. Maybe,

599
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,720
but like I don't know. Yeah, so she was like, mom,

600
00:31:43,759 --> 00:31:46,920
that was such a nice surprise. But yes, she's single.

601
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:49,119
Speaker 2: I know.

602
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,599
Speaker 1: I I thought about like doing stuff for the kids

603
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,799
for Valentine's Day, like when they were younger, but I

604
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,680
just never did because it always did something at school, right,

605
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,960
and it was just like another extra thing that I

606
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,920
you know, because when they're in elementary school, yeah you

607
00:32:05,039 --> 00:32:08,119
gotta do oh my god, all the Valentine college we

608
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,559
have talked about, but like, yes, that you they the

609
00:32:11,599 --> 00:32:13,680
school wants them, like when they're in the first grade

610
00:32:13,759 --> 00:32:16,799
to write everybody's name. Come on, they're not writing twenty

611
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,960
five names to each person with their own. That is

612
00:32:20,079 --> 00:32:24,920
like the homework. Yeah, beat all homework, right, so you

613
00:32:25,119 --> 00:32:28,400
end up doing it. Of course, get that freaking roster

614
00:32:28,559 --> 00:32:33,039
out or like download the roster. Here's the class roster. Okay,

615
00:32:33,079 --> 00:32:36,640
make sure you don't miss anybody here, ross check. Will

616
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:40,920
you beat my Valentine? Yes, yeah, I remember. Yes. It

617
00:32:41,079 --> 00:32:42,000
was pain in the ass.

618
00:32:42,279 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 3: But yeah, they that when they were that age that

619
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,160
they had their like time in the classroom, like that

620
00:32:47,319 --> 00:32:48,880
was there and then I'm gonna come home with all

621
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:53,720
these like random candy shit stuck together with cards, little

622
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,920
those little plastic cards stuck together, making a mess in

623
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:57,759
the back of your car.

624
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,359
Speaker 1: And then they always would say like don't do candy.

625
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,000
That was always like a big thing, like do not

626
00:33:03,119 --> 00:33:07,279
do candy. And then we'd all do candy. Everybody whoever's

627
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,319
rule following, well, you do the conversation hearts, but half

628
00:33:10,359 --> 00:33:14,039
these people would do like some chocolate. It's like freaking Halloween, right,

629
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,000
you know, and you're like, didn't they say? And then

630
00:33:17,039 --> 00:33:19,400
they come home with that little brown paper bag full

631
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,680
of their Valentine full of the ones, And then you

632
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,559
take them out and see the parents that made their

633
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,359
kids because it's the worst penmanship ever. You know, you

634
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,839
can barely read your kid's name on there. But then

635
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,519
it's like a bag full of candy and you're like, oh,

636
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,720
on the household that didn't bring candy because I was

637
00:33:35,799 --> 00:33:38,359
trying to rule follow And this one's got the mini

638
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,160
fun dip and this one's got the heart shape lollipop

639
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,200
and you're like, oh yeah, on the house.

640
00:33:43,319 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 3: And then there was the you gotta get the teacher

641
00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:47,359
or something and to bring something for the teacher. Yes,

642
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,920
everyone who's gonna get who's going to pitch in for

643
00:33:50,039 --> 00:33:52,880
her having her coffee and her bagels, who's gonna get

644
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:53,640
her flowers?

645
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,519
Speaker 1: And like, ah, oh my god, Caitlin, are you doing?

646
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 3: He probably doesn't know he's not the default bear. No,

647
00:34:00,839 --> 00:34:04,000
you don't know anything about that, is Amy though, yeah

648
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:04,559
she does.

649
00:34:04,799 --> 00:34:07,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, they they were doing all their stuff. I don't know.

650
00:34:08,119 --> 00:34:11,079
Speaker 1: See this is fucked up. Oh they were doing all

651
00:34:11,159 --> 00:34:13,800
their stuff. You know, that's m shit. Like this is

652
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,400
what this is why we say default parent because like, yeah,

653
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,320
we have to. If we don't do it, ain't nobody

654
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,480
gonna do it. It's they're not going to get their

655
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,239
own coffee. It's not only that. Have you ever heard

656
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,360
in your whole entire life of like a room dad, No,

657
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,719
the room mom. Have you ever room dad? Does that

658
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,800
even sound familiar to anybody? No, there is no room dad.

659
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,960
There's room mom, and that's it. And if there's single

660
00:34:38,079 --> 00:34:40,079
dads that are that are that step it up and

661
00:34:40,199 --> 00:34:42,960
are like great dads, that's awesome. But I've never heard

662
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,800
of one of them being like, I'll be room dad.

663
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,400
It's not a thing. It was not the same ring. No,

664
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,599
so the room mom. So that's one step up from

665
00:34:52,679 --> 00:34:55,400
what we're doing. We're default parenting. We're like, okay, where

666
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,840
do I venmo the money? The room mom? You know,

667
00:34:59,039 --> 00:35:01,079
I think I did that one time for my kids

668
00:35:01,159 --> 00:35:03,960
in preschool, and I was like, never again. Oh my

669
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,880
kids were like why are you here?

670
00:35:06,519 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 3: I remember I had a volunteer at the school and

671
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:12,119
I was I was the resay the recess uh you know,

672
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,480

673
00:35:14,519 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 1: And they were like, are you fucking kidding me? Why?

674
00:35:17,559 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 3: And this is my one sanctuary out of the day

675
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,079
where we can come outside and be with our friends

676
00:35:22,119 --> 00:35:23,320
and not be stuck in a classroom.

677
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,199
Speaker 1: And there's our mom. Both of them they were like

678
00:35:26,679 --> 00:35:31,239
hit the bricks. Time for you to bounce, Like, oh

679
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,559
my god, Julie, our friend, Julie, I think I've told

680
00:35:34,599 --> 00:35:39,400

681
00:35:39,599 --> 00:35:41,480
like being a part of things, like with her kids,

682
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,960
and she had a job being the being the recess person,

683
00:35:46,119 --> 00:35:48,639
and she had the same even her even she was

684
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,840
like her kids were like, mom, no, right. She was like, yeah,

685
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:54,880
my kids did not want me there. That was a job.

686
00:35:55,079 --> 00:35:56,760
She took it as like a part time job. Oh

687
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,559
she did that's right. Yeah. And then her kids were like, no,

688
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:02,000
thanks mom, And she was like, oh, I guess I

689
00:36:02,039 --> 00:36:02,880
can't do this job.

690
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 2: There was even like a little sign up sheet, cause

691
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,119
I take the girls to school most days and there's

692
00:36:08,119 --> 00:36:10,239
a little sign up sheet at Blake's school that's saying like, oh,

693
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,239
we're having a Valentine's Day party. We need like this

694
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:13,760
and this and this and this, and you write your

695
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,440
name down. And I was like, I'm just going to

696
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,280
wait a week and see how many people fill out

697
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,639
that name because I don't. All I'd have to do

698
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:22,039
is buy something and bring it. And I was like,

699
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,159
you know, let's see how well this fills up before

700
00:36:24,199 --> 00:36:25,639
I have to write my name in there.

701
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: It's so funny, like as oh, let's do let's do

702
00:36:29,519 --> 00:36:32,239
a quick let's talk about Rula, and then I'll try

703
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,519
to remember what I was going to say, which is hard. Okay,

704
00:36:35,599 --> 00:36:39,800
this is so great. I feel so strongly about the

705
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,280
need for therapy. I think every kid could use therapy,

706
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,840
every adult really could. And Rula makes it so easy

707
00:36:48,039 --> 00:36:52,719
and so affordable. They're a healthcare company and they go

708
00:36:53,039 --> 00:36:56,719
through the providers and they see who takes your health

709
00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:00,519
insurance and they find you the lowest possible. They have

710
00:37:00,679 --> 00:37:05,079
copeys for sessions as low as fifteen dollars a session,

711
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:09,239
which is a miracle. That is that's a really good deal.

712
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,800
That's amazing. It's all over zoom. You don't have to

713
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,199
fight traffic, you don't have to look for parking, you

714
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,000
don't have to spend. It's it's you get your fifty

715
00:37:18,039 --> 00:37:21,840
minutes or whatever of therapy minus the two hours extra

716
00:37:22,039 --> 00:37:25,039
of going there, going home, fighting, parking, all the stuff

717
00:37:25,119 --> 00:37:25,800
that you don't need.

718
00:37:26,159 --> 00:37:28,639

736
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,760

00:40:28,639 --> 00:40:31,000
go right past them, and they're right in front of me,

779
00:40:31,519 --> 00:40:32,519
so I have no choice.

780
00:40:32,599 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 1: It's like a drug dealer outside of your like apartment

781
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,320
complex somewhere like, I got to pass them. I can't

782
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,559
stop doing cocaine. It's too easy to get. And they're

783
00:40:42,599 --> 00:40:46,400
making eye contact with me, following me down. You know,

784
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,159
you're like, no, I still have a little cocaine left

785
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:50,760
from the other from yesterday.

786
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 3: They're like, really, I have those vanilla tea biscuit ones

787
00:40:55,559 --> 00:40:58,639
that you'd like. Those those biscuit ones. I didn't even

788
00:40:58,679 --> 00:41:00,920
know which ones I bought, like the the cocone oils,

789
00:41:01,119 --> 00:41:03,199
the Samas, the Samoa's.

790
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: I bought the tag alongs, I bought peanut butter, and

791
00:41:06,519 --> 00:41:09,519
I bought the thin mints, and then there was a

792
00:41:09,639 --> 00:41:11,960
new one. They talked you into the Samors, which are

793
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,239
only going to be around for those special clock Yes,

794
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,360
I did. I got those two. Yeah, They're like, this

795
00:41:18,519 --> 00:41:21,519
is your last opportunity last season running alone on them,

796
00:41:21,559 --> 00:41:24,000
they told me. I was like, yeah, there's a reason

797
00:41:24,079 --> 00:41:26,639
for that. Probably cookie that didn't work out as well

798
00:41:26,679 --> 00:41:27,280
as the other ones.

799
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,119
Speaker 3: Yet they have so many I haven't seen Girl Scout

800
00:41:30,159 --> 00:41:33,599
cookies in a long time. So many different rides. But yeah, anyway,

801
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,639
so now they're like they're out there every day in force,

802
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,039
Like you know, Scout.

803
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 1: Sound terrible, but I am suspicious I find the whole

804
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:47,679
Girl Scout organization to be kind of sus and I know,

805
00:41:49,039 --> 00:41:50,880
I hate that. I hate that we've come to a

806
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,000
point where I have to worry about everything. I say

807
00:41:53,079 --> 00:41:55,199
that people are going to come for me, but you

808
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:57,559
guys are all gonna at me if we were still

809
00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,599
if I was still on Twitter, you can't because I'm

810
00:41:59,599 --> 00:42:02,199
not on Twit. But you'll, I don't know, you'll find

811
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,880
a way. You'll Instagram message me, You'll go on Facebook

812
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,920
and start a thread about it on the relitan page.

813
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:12,400
But I don't know where does the money go exactly.

814
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,719
That's a lot of fucking cookies. Yeah, where And they're

815
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,519
kind of pricey and they sell a lot of cookies,

816
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,760
and like, oh you only I know from having had

817
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,639
a kid in Girl Scouts that it is a small

818
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,880
percentage of the cookie sales that goes to your actual troop,

819
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,360
to getting to go on your trip to Disneyland or whatever.

820
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,239
I remember that. Yeah, it's like ten percent, right, It's

821
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,599
not like seventy percent. So I guess it goes back

822
00:42:38,679 --> 00:42:43,360
to the cookie manufacturing. But I have a feeling that

823
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:46,480
there are some higher ups in the Girl Scout organization

824
00:42:46,639 --> 00:42:50,400
get money. I don't really hear about the Girl Scouts.

825
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,360
Oh my gosh, the ACLU is being funded by the

826
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,039
Girl Scouts or the you don't even I don't hear

827
00:42:56,079 --> 00:42:58,960
about like they're building there, the Girl Scout money is

828
00:42:59,039 --> 00:43:02,360
going to help support habitat for human I don't know.

829
00:43:02,519 --> 00:43:05,239
Good point. I could be wrong. I could be wrong.

830
00:43:05,599 --> 00:43:08,800
But every time I hear like, oh, a small percentage

831
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,440
goes to your troop, I'm like, so these Girl Scouts

832
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:15,239
are out there every day busting ass, slinging the right cookies,

833
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:19,199
slinging cookies? Does it teach them a little bit about math?

834
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,880
And I guess does it teach them? Is there something

835
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:26,000
in it? But like, well, but when I go to

836
00:43:26,079 --> 00:43:28,719
my Girl Scouts, someone's getting rich and it's not the kids. Yeah,

837
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:33,119
the kids were nowhere near the Girl Scout cookie stand.

838
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,719
It was the husband and wife sitting there, right, and

839
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,440
the two girls were like off on a swing in

840
00:43:38,519 --> 00:43:40,599
the tree the other and you know they're they're not

841
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,079
doing shit. They don't even know what day it is, right,

842
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,119
But the husband and wife are out there slinging the cookies.

843
00:43:46,519 --> 00:43:47,039
So I don't know.

844
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's a good point. Where is all that money?

845
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,880
There's a lot of money to be made in girl Scouts.

846
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,039
Speaker 1: Yes, where does it all go? I mean, think about it.

847
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,559
If you're doing like let's say, multi level marketing, it's

848
00:44:00,079 --> 00:44:03,800
you know, and you're out there selling your like Lulu uh,

849
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:08,719
it's not Lulu Lemon, No Lularo leggings.

850
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:09,039
Speaker 2: You know.

851
00:44:10,159 --> 00:44:12,519
Speaker 1: You ever think about the fact that Lularo is very

852
00:44:12,559 --> 00:44:15,760
close to Lulu Lemon. Yeah? I did think about that.

853
00:44:16,039 --> 00:44:18,360
That's why I never knew lemons. Got to be really

854
00:44:18,559 --> 00:44:21,679
salty about the fact that like Lularo right kind of

855
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,440
is like also leggings, ye know what I mean, ugly, crappy,

856
00:44:25,519 --> 00:44:32,679
shitty leggings, smelly leggings, the worst, the worst leggings stuff

857
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,719
like or they came like they used to because they

858
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,400
got wet and then they had some mold and the

859
00:44:37,519 --> 00:44:40,280
people would open the boxes, right and then there would

860
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:44,360
amazing the leggings that had like the the cock and balls.

861
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,960
But it wasn't cokingmas like cherry like a little cherry plant,

862
00:44:48,199 --> 00:44:51,039
you know, whatever it was. But it turned out to

863
00:44:51,119 --> 00:44:53,800
look like it was because it was on the crotch right,

864
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,920
and there was Yes, that was so that documentary is amazing.

865
00:44:59,079 --> 00:45:03,519
It was so good, highly recommend. Yeah. Yeah, but if

866
00:45:03,559 --> 00:45:06,199
you're selling let's say multi level marketing and you get

867
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,599
a percentage, but you know how hard it is to

868
00:45:08,639 --> 00:45:12,519
make money. Even if you sell a shit ton of lularow,

869
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,079
you're still making a small amount of money because guess

870
00:45:15,119 --> 00:45:17,360
who's getting rich. The people at the top, the people

871
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:21,519
who own the company. They're they're like owning boats and

872
00:45:21,679 --> 00:45:25,639
mansions and right, yes, yes, the poor person who's you know,

873
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:31,199
busting their butt constantly doing like Facebook Live exactly, Laro

874
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,239
and all start indoor and like that's not And also

875
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,199
they have to spend money to make money.

876
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 3: They would have to spend like three hundred dollars in

877
00:45:38,599 --> 00:45:43,079
products months at least or whatever in order to make

878
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:44,199
a buck back.

879
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:48,039
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, it was. Yeah. I remember when we both

880
00:45:48,159 --> 00:45:51,480
like many years ago. I know, you did your rowdown

881
00:45:51,559 --> 00:45:53,920
in fields for a while, and I really thought it

882
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:57,280
would be a great idea. This was kind of early

883
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:01,360
in the Stella and Dot days. Huh oh my god. Okay,

884
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:05,360
so remember when this was so many years ago, when

885
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,400
I was doing parental discretion and somebody was wearing this

886
00:46:08,519 --> 00:46:12,480
necklace that I thought was so cute. It was like

887
00:46:12,639 --> 00:46:15,280
a like kind of a beat. I can't even describe it.

888
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,000
But I was like, that necklace is so cute. Where

889
00:46:17,079 --> 00:46:19,280
did you get it? And they said, oh, Stella and Dot.

890
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:23,039
So I look up Stella and Dot. I don't understand.

891
00:46:23,039 --> 00:46:25,320
I didn't understand that it was multi level marketing at

892
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,800
the time. I was like, Oh, it's like this jewelry

893
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,920
company that you can only get like a lot from

894
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:35,119
a from a representative. I truly didn't understand that it

895
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,159
was multi level marketing and pressure sales, okay. So I

896
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,840
was like, oh, like that's so cool, Like I want

897
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:46,199
to order this necklace. So then I had a Oh.

898
00:46:46,519 --> 00:46:48,199
The girl who told me about it was like, well,

899
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:49,960
I have a friend who sells it, so you can

900
00:46:50,039 --> 00:46:52,440
get it through her. So I did. I bought this

901
00:46:52,599 --> 00:46:56,719
necklace through her. And then I had this friend who'd

902
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:58,599
been out of work for a while who also thought

903
00:46:58,639 --> 00:47:00,519
it was cute. And I was like, oh, so you

904
00:47:00,599 --> 00:47:04,400
should sell Stella and Dot huh. And I could get

905
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,559
a bunch of people because there's stuff so cute. I

906
00:47:06,639 --> 00:47:10,400
was so innocent, honestly, I'll get a bunch of friends

907
00:47:10,519 --> 00:47:12,679
to come over you do a party. I'll do a

908
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:15,280
little party for you at my house. So I'm at

909
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:20,599
parental discretion. I invite all the writers and like some

910
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:24,519
of my neighbors. So little did I know, and they

911
00:47:24,559 --> 00:47:28,480
didn't act like this. To be in their defense, nobody

912
00:47:28,559 --> 00:47:30,679
ever said anything to me about this, but now I

913
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,559
feel bad. I invited them all over and then they

914
00:47:33,599 --> 00:47:36,679
got pressured because I was like their boss. I was

915
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,960
the star of the show, so they all felt like

916
00:47:39,079 --> 00:47:41,440
they had to buy something from my Stella and dot

917
00:47:41,519 --> 00:47:45,719
party for my friend Kelly. Do you remember my friend

918
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,280
Kelly who I feel like it's been long enough that

919
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,400
she could maybe come on our show, Okay? Do you

920
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:56,400
remember my friend Kelly whose husband furry became a bit

921
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,760
of a furry and ran away and became very involved

922
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:05,480
in man Okay, and she came on the show and

923
00:48:05,559 --> 00:48:07,400
did a whole episode and told her a whole story

924
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,760
which was freaking fascinating. And then he then the the

925
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,559
head of the Burning Man group, sent her a seasoned

926
00:48:14,559 --> 00:48:18,000
to sist. I didn't know that. We ended up having

927
00:48:18,039 --> 00:48:21,159
to take the episode down and people were really bummed. Oh,

928
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,280
I'm gonna say we should run an episode because she

929
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,599
think I think she named names of like the person

930
00:48:27,679 --> 00:48:33,199
who her ex husband anyway, and she talked her ex

931
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:37,360
moment is married to somebody mm hm that was also

932
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:42,320
into it. Yes, and that what you call him furries. Well,

933
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,119
he wore a tail. I remember started wearing a tail.

934
00:48:45,599 --> 00:48:47,719
It wasn't like a full on furry, but he would

935
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,960
he would wear a he would wear like chaps and

936
00:48:50,079 --> 00:48:53,000
a tail places. And then remember he was like he

937
00:48:53,119 --> 00:48:55,960
wanted to start wearing makeup everywhere, and she was like,

938
00:48:56,519 --> 00:48:59,920
I mean, okay, I guess you know, if that's what

939
00:49:00,079 --> 00:49:02,320
it makes you happy. But then he told her he

940
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,480
wanted to have her permission to go to like cuddle

941
00:49:06,599 --> 00:49:10,159
parties and like kissing parties, and she was like, no,

942
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:17,000
that's right, Oh my god, yeah yeah, and then she

943
00:49:17,159 --> 00:49:20,920
eventually he was just like, well, this is what the

944
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:23,000
lifestyle I want to lead, and she was like, okay,

945
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,119
not with me. I would like to have a follow

946
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,159
up on that, right, Well, that's what I'm thinking. It's

947
00:49:28,199 --> 00:49:30,840
been so long. Maybe we could have her Yeah, I

948
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:35,400
could ask her to coin yeah, but anyway, oh oh, so,

949
00:49:35,599 --> 00:49:38,000
just to wrap that up, so she came and did

950
00:49:38,039 --> 00:49:40,239
the Stella and Dot party. She started selling it. It

951
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:44,199
did not last that long, but I made everybody without

952
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,840
meaning to buy, so she did real well at that party, yes,

953
00:49:49,039 --> 00:49:52,400
and then had struggled ever since, ever since, right, yeah,

954
00:49:53,079 --> 00:49:55,760
and then I realized, oh, then I wanted to sell it.

955
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:57,880
I was like, I should sell it and I should

956
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,679
just promote it on Facebook or like. And then the

957
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,400
Stele and Dot people were like, no, you have to

958
00:50:03,519 --> 00:50:05,639
like buy I was like, I don't want to buy

959
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,920
the thing. I just want to do it. I just

960
00:50:09,039 --> 00:50:11,719
want to show my show me wearing it and say like, hey,

961
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:13,039
if you want to buy this, I want to be

962
00:50:13,119 --> 00:50:15,559
like an affiliate program. Yes, like give me a link

963
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:17,960
and if people buy it, like I get a percentage.

964
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,000
And they're like, no, that's not how it works. You

965
00:50:20,119 --> 00:50:21,800
have to like have parties. And I was like, well,

966
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,280
I'm not going to do that. An I don't want

967
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,840
to buy like four hundred dollars worth of jewelry and

968
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,519
then try to sell it. And they're like, well, sorry,

969
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:32,840
so that happened, too bad. You can't do it your

970
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:35,599
own way. All right, Listen, we have a guest for

out of Vancouver, Washington. They've lost a lot of resources

984
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,119
