You scared the hell out of me because I was expecting her,
your face, berries and yet a different version as well of her. Yes, we have a good comes at a price on as an official, I wouldn't
no to respect that wouldn't have I'm somebody I used to work at a coffee shop. Almost thirty years ago, my everyday barista had green hair one day and didn't even clock it. I filter things very differently, I'm just like okay, there's hair on the head, everything's fine!
I notice other things, so I can do tat change a change in current, quite well, emotional stuff. You got a new jackie. I note that is quite comical from my perspective and I know monica to perspective, and can you grab something out of my purse? Now I've carried the same purse for polly, eight or nine months every place. I, though, it's always on my body and it's like what does it look like an amendment? Nineteen by I do, but I have carried one for the last nine months.
I might have be that you haven't noticed this thing. That's attached to my parents are playing in its own way. All you want is the barriers of the person. You are also carrying your real effort bags. You carry everywhere, you wrote it doesnt mean
but the diaper barriers will do. You can only have a lot of your own. Sometimes you have why so many bags this could be a coin purse. This could be too. We need to define
This could be a failure that around eighty right, that's a permit.
magna could be either now or business figs coins are jingling around a painting. I know what it is share. No look at em
yeah. Okay, honestly, I just have to tell you I thought about this sounds like it would be so nice to see Kristen. But I imagine probably everyone that comes over, wants to see. Kristin says like I'm just going to let it go, I'm just not going to even try.
I do mostly only invite the special ones. I have come up to see two people. This isn't true eternity in the history of the park. That's not true. I have to fact three people who's, the third peter tia you and laura linney. That's right! Okay! Well,
In a poster on my cats and arab israeli moreau, I've been excited to see while I'm thrilled to see you. I also still want to make an appointment for coal plants share a hundred per cent. In fact, we just change the filter and we realise that we have been using it for the last couple months thinking we were getting some good at college. I had thoughts of I'm lying.
Off or whatever, as and when all the winter winner I'm doing ass right could live in the arctic ocean. If I desired than how good at cold plunging, I am cut too, we change the filter, we realize it's definitely been clogged the new filter, it's gone down by twenty
Oh yeah, I went in it and I was like what happened. I was in it yesterday. It said fifty one now, I'm in it today. It says fifty two and it's a completely different experience and I can't handle it in my bones hurt and I got out. I was like I dunno what the fuck it says. The same temperature yeah now this is a big mystery in our life. My hypothesis is that, because now the jet is
when clogged in it's circulating the water inside there, you can't create that little bubble around yourself. That's what kind of happens, at least when we do it in the pools you get the bubble and when the kids would walk by it's twenty degrees, cooler. You gotta turn on your heart light
create the little bubble and what I did. A very quick called plunder had never done a called plunge christian had invited me. I don't know if you know this Chris invited me to your house to do a cold, plied you'd know, and then I broke my
ribs or that Alison Eugenie broke my rib. She and I could not hold plunge and had to reschedule- and I really want to do a reschedule shall
was right now and get you in the cold plunge and then resume that you're suggesting. Now I'm telling you I did one for for one second, not at your house that we were in montauk new york, our hotel had a cold plunge tub and a hot tub and a pool- and I was like okay, I'm going to do this and it was really vulgar,
because a bunch of strangers were around and I was gonna go submerge into a freezing, cold tub and I walked in. I got up to my
we in immediately got out it painful. You need to be propped yeah. The prep I got was a strange man that was in the hot tub
There is a gulf war. It lets you, I think is ever said to me and his whole life. While I have the honour of single thing, he said, that's a good one to say I go for it and silent fly. We would have told you some things to expect that I do think help. The experience, which is your body, only sends that signal. Let's get the fuck out of here. You're gonna die for thirty seconds from us
people like twenty. So really you just go in knowing yet my bodies gimme screaming, get out of this lethal situation, but after twenty seconds, your body, biogas, oh shit, no we're staying,
so now we get a start. Sending me opposite chemicals to help. You deal with this. The fact that your freezing and doubted, if you had known, ok gotta, get in there and can be miserable, but I'm gonna come to twenty seconds and then that'll start dissipating and get more enjoyable. Maybe that would have helped you think. Not they go for it is an awesome know, is very helpful. Guy
went for it yeah and then I got out, and I was like hey boy. I got into the hot tub and then went and met up with my friend we're going to offer you a little bit more than a
for at we're. Gonna offer dinner is some dinner nice and for certain offer we'll talk about car service above veto will hand holding I'll have a timer anything. You need a towel. That's ready! Here's! What I often do not put the towels in the drier has arisen,

enjoy that ideal, but I am also very menopausal and some
always an assault on your order. You run in hot yeah, I'm runnin hot and I always explain to Stephanie. My wife is fifteen years younger than me. It's as though I am trapped in a sauna, with a mask on fully
close and I want to get out- and I can't will be just out to dinner,
fill my stomach, I'm always grabbing her hand and running it and she's like gross yeah it. I know I can see and I'm like, but you know
you don't understand. We gotta hit on staffing for just two seconds, because I know Stephanie. She told me
ass we do from usually, and we did a commercial together which one amazon
very big commercials. What's is now with Asia S, but you weren't in frame with him, were you,
image on the opposite side of the camera into how the cameras work. He was physically with you, we was. Did you chat with a mental quickly? It was very nice
mary belt. I was just going to say: was he Jackie, rising peter? A t? F, I think, of him and shape. He never said that, but that's what I'm gonna morphs us anyway loves daphne shout out. I lover to get them.
join the club, guys we're headed and to allow members might all you and you have personal anecdotes about her well yeah baby.
Together. We worked together the three of us, an rhine hansen last year and a half ok, so you had lots of me
Was stephanie breeze strike, pray, pray,
try. This is in the seventies, as is a long time. We gave her runnels pray the original strike. Actually, we were getting creative together, she's, a dream, bout, she's, so fun and lively, and a very good writer. She so tell me
ten years younger than going hunting curious. If you get frustrated at all that you don't share, some of the same reference is like. I was reading your book. You were talking about you
your mother's love for television. Of course, your listing all the shows- and for me it means the world well
buried horror, Sanford son, the jefferson's. All these shows blacks. It comes in the same areas were on fire. Is there any sadness that there's some references? You guys don't share that you feel like you're foundational too, who you are. I know your committee, but I want you to answer that sincere here. I am tired. I answer the pan out and start no. No, I dont reference a lot of tv and film. I more of the music person and Stephanie is very well versed in music and I must seventies kid and she feels like the seventies that was a sweet spot
for film making and music and so were kind of on the same wise there. The only thing that she kind of message was that a sweet spot of the seventies set com she's a little
more, like god or even no boy meets world. I dont know how she's my jewish right, she's holiday. She she's thirty seven
ok, I'll, go yasser merging mash. Virtually
yeah. I don't even know what she watched honestly ever deeper and the like.
all guy dukes a has any of the actually I'm any Simon. I do think its relevant cause shows and movies got more realistic, which is cool. We liked it, but also there's something about this weird world that existed on tv back there you aspired to, or I thought of, is obtainable. Maybe I was also really entities
It's like a little animal shows where you're, like friends with the porpoise, be jane. The bear yeah. That's a long haul truck driver with a chimpanzee in his gas, please yeah. That makes total sense, and I thought that's something. I'd like to do. When I grow up. There was a lot of content about truck driver yeah
when I was a kid being a long haul truck driver seem like some. I was pretty interested him and I don't think that Stephanie got that or did you get that
but I dont know that that would I never had any dream.
Of being trucker, now no umbrella,
well yeah, look me in the eye and you are not dreaming of being a long haul trucker. What was it going to the bathroom behind the wheel? Why didn't appeal to you you're out there adventuring you could go to the bathroom
the wheel, your along all trucker, but no you're by yourself, the whole time. Oh, you were the tube. Well, you d be hong kong and though airborne yeah, ok, you're, making it more appealing. Don't they do Hong Kong's
yeah, but it can also be like hong kong if you feel like well, if I must bring out my famous horn
If that's not the sound of it see, I'm not right for it. I'm going to let you guys talk, but I love you. I really really am so happy to see you and I'm glad you came to do it for real we're going to do what anything you want to cycle. That's what I wanted to hear
some local by how awesome the ear married Kristen bell its work,
pretty good air goin on seventeen years. I think I have a good gig yeah. It's good work if you can find it. I've had its ups and downs. Of course, I'm married to her
in some ways. Are you married now cause stiffly and I always say? Well I told her one time. I said I m right. You see up now
but one percent of the time tell me what happened
I cannot think of a worse person
alive on this planet. Like you,
saying that is bottom,
wrong terrible. I cannot stand you and then she said yeah same, but don't you think that one percent is the time
this person embodies everything
standing in my way of doing what I wanna do is actually not about them as much as like their this huge roadblock for me to do whatever the thing
I want to be doing in this moment. We are in there and I can allow
you got always check in and there so many little things, especially being a comedian. I mean I used to know,
ever have to run anything by anybody. I just said and did what
for I wanted and I had girlfriends or of a single knives got a spouse and I'm not complaining about it. It's just a shift of where she might say I don't know about that. Is it generally is something that you're telling about her personal story, that you're gonna say on stage or is it being protective of you overall
our family, our kids, her the two of us and it's something I actually appreciate and am thankful for, because I like
that I've reeled it in a little that it's hard to know right. So the best model of what I am attempting to do for the last six years is howard stern. So one of the things I just have
in the kind of notice was oh, he never talks about his daughters and he's even said that his daughters said hey. Don't talk about me on this radio show, so I thought. Okay, that's something to think about. But of course I talk about my daughters, their kids. It's all I do is deal with kids stuff and then I'm like well. What age am I gonna stop talking about, but there's no real roadmap for us to know
what that wine is caused. So much of your stand up his autobiographical, yeah and there's really fun shows that I'll do where Stephanie will be in the audience in the back row and out
hell a new story and then I'll say Stephanie. Is that how you
I recall the name and dark shall be like nodding
lay and then I'll invite heard to share what her
and so that's been fun and we ve joked about how it would maybe even be a fun stanhope
shall years. She has that's what she said. She said. Yes, we called. She said she said: how old were you when you guys got together, because I have a new theory, I'm about to be thirty six and I feel like as I'm getting older. It is getting less and less likely that I will get married.
and not because, like others, not people, because I'm feeling more of your your lover? I am just like happy on my own getting more and more so so you did want to get married
yeah for sure now, you're, like a man, I am
so where, when I am in bed by myself, that that feels nice than I would be giving something up, maybe and then you could meet Stephanie Chris sooner
alex or whatever and be like. Oh, I actually I'm not saying that you need to have a partner to be happy, but I'm saying if you find that right one because I for sure had no interest. I was the worst gay person because I was like line. Is everyone want
in marriage? Who cares about that? You know? Was it fair to say you are a commitment, phobic cause? I have some theories on why you might be. I did have a fear
thought that I wouldn't be able to do what I wanted to do. Can I suggest yeah- and this is where we get into this weird-
zone where people write an autobiography, they feel very safe and those moments talking about it. While the writing in a room and then their hearing, this attic with electricity hanging, hang the wall,
the context and resign bell runnin around the proper out. Just for us
veritable off the land red faced. A lot of our childhood is kind of similar, so three years old, when my parents got divorced that they are multiple for me in the mix being completely on your own
right the notion that your mother, no clue you are failing out of junior high being a very responsible, grown up chow
the old I think for me when I laugh that I was like okay, no more being saddled with anybody as much love as I have for everybody. I think there is this notion that I'm already permanently locked to some characters, and I think I want to not accumulate any more yeah. I could see the fear of
people getting in my way in the way the people in my upbringing gotten my way right, but I think of europe in a house where your parents real assets and they were bringing you to soccer thing, and then your dad was working with you in the front yard to learn this stuff in than you were doing all that together and you are receiving. I think you be more open to that commitment. Like walk this one worked out grey,
and look as many rough spots sponsor atypical parenting. That happened, my mother, putting us to Ben going out
party and have no idea where she is. I'm still very thankful for who I am, but I dont think that any thing was telling me. I should find her and re create this wasn't being modeled know, and so, when I met Stephanie, I was
so confused because it came out of nowhere because working together on in a world yeah, unlike bells movie, and we both had very small roles and we were love interests and seventy was
She was, but what s really interesting is that she said should go out with guys and then they want to see her again and they build casey tomorrow, and why would I need to see you tomorrow? Just saw yeah for your heart is a pizza. Why now go to morrow? Why would I possibly need to see you again anytime soon end so shows that that was kind of weird about herself but yo after being with her. It just came out of me. In fact, we were having dinner one time and I thought I never felt really terribly vulnerable previously that specifics with your recognising that moment this,
Son has the power to kind of crush me emotion, yeah, and I was whereas I knew who I've been crushed. I've had conflict, but I've never felt like oh boy, you let this went into the house
rudy their way, whatever happens here, and so I thought I was gonna take this moment and allow myself to be really vulnerable and I at dinner he had two months, and I said I have something really crazy to tell you and she said what I said I feel like I want
to be married to you and I was ready for what
first, she sat. Does you and you have offered, and people have told me very vulnerable things I just felt like. I was always just keep my cool and I was ready to just go
or like in the good old man that wise man here and so she didn't miss obey it into this idea, tie fail. Why I'll wait in the dark to go? No there's a couple. I watched tig, yet t edgy, I'm familiar one. The stories
but hey this is not going to work for me. I'm romantically in love with you stephanie your straight, and I need to probably pull the plug cause. I'm gonna kick destroyed. That was before a we had
mad on in a world. I got really ill: cancer, intestinal disease and ammonia. My mother tripped and died broke up with my girlfriend all of this and for months I was not in a great place and I collapsed and went off to the hospital and just life slid away after I came back from all of that and was recovering emotionally physically, I reappear after we do the movie and their stephanie and movies going to sundance and we exchange numbers because we had so much fun working the other. I wasn't like oh
interested in this person- and she certainly wasn't thinking I'm interested and tag on about, certainly but yeah, some agreeing with the chronology of your story ass. We exchange numbers to go to sunday
one that is my favorite part, because I think we ve all a lot of us have experiences. You just start tax the media and then you just can't
stop texting Emily, malta, music, a wonderful thing to just be texting with somebody, and I told her that and I didn't think she is interested in me. I just explained I'm not a big texter. I do not like texting. I said I went out with a girl for coffee and she texted me right off
you're saying it was so nice meeting you and she knew how to show that night. She texted me at show time instead of you have a great show and then, at that time, she's hex, sweet dreams, ugly and I was like
yeah really allow, as though I give seventy my number and she goes out. Why hate taxing too so don't worry about it, and in that night I go to bed and she tax me sweetie
sweet dreams, so good- and I was like this girl is so funny. I already knew it but yeah we couldn't stop. She texted me. I was writing my book and she said: hey I'm with some friends. If you want to come meet up with us were at la piu belle, and I was like. Oh my god, I started to think I had a crush on her at this point and I thought why can't go meet her. I've been just lying around my
I was writing my book. I haven't showered and then I was like oh she's, not into me, so it doesn't matter what I look like clean girl, dirty girl, girl, dirty girl. So I go down to la piu belle and I show up- and I have this big canadian sweater on with a big eagle on the back and I walk in She'S- got a big bullet
who sweater with an eagle
in the bow cable, knit sweater yeah and I'm like this is insane. Are you writing a book? Yeah yeah and I said we should switch sweaters and her friend was saying there and he goes yeah switch, sweaters and I'll take a picture and we put our arms around each other. We start making out as soon as we tell each other, what's right in front of the entire bar, and so we have our first kiss captured.
Has he ran the picture. Where was it equal? You were doing right now. It was now implosion about soon every touched each other, because we had just been tech.
think for much as I love these? It's like people across the country that mean each line the thing and then they get together nervous of other again like each other, and then this unexploded, oh, my gosh, that's kissing your life, lol, yeah and then that's when she wrote me and she said hey. It was so fun kissing and I, like you so much, I'm not gay. She wrote me like a ten page e mail going on and on about how much she loved hanging out with me how much fun how fun it was to kiss, and then I just wrote her back
said: okay, dyke and she said when she got the ok diagnoses leg. I like this,
Now I have a production company and two kids and three cats. That's all war like eleven years ago, yet we ve hit ten years were gone into eleven and one percent can hats. Dan
each other sure yeah. Sure I like more focusing on the phone texting part need to be alive.
hearing that, because that's the reality and if you go into anything thinking, it's one hundred percent and if the one percent happens it's like. Oh maybe we don't like each other know that she is probably normal. Another thing
thinking of during the story is how sad I feel for single people who do want a partner being the right.
Pressure on that throttle. Three tax. After one coffee, terrified one tags making fun of that were gone
then near now. Give me more. I just feel like so much of the romances. Just knowing how hard to be on the gas for people, it's not the same
for everyone either a and I knew I was taken- a massive risk. Writing ok, dyke,
and not saying anything else, but it were their voice. The bus routes, war, three texts, girl was probably a fan,
no now are you, I couldn't be more positive delay and that was part of the problem. She had no sense of humour and I think we may be one out twice. They had come
wifi in them? Maybe when went out for dinner across from where I was doing stand up- and I said I'm going to just pop in here- I'm going to do a set and then I'll pop back over and she wasn't even slightly interested what was going on. Okay, can we talk about mississippi from yeah, mississippi, Houston Christian was pass christian, very rough name. For me, it's the cajun pronunciation of christian yeah, just a name
on question for me, a scary elfish sure I'm just so used to it. But if I eventually us from Jesus Michigan vs was probably a lot of pressure there. In one of my son, sir, we heard of friends house we're in ohio and their very catholic and there's a picture of Jesus and max's ike
Is that Jesus yeah just turn and others like baby steps?
but I got but people call my town the pass and then the actual pronunciation as past christian
and it's just short of an hour east of new orleans. It's definitely got the vibe of new orleans. People has a lot of new orleans folk have weakened homes, their people of retired. There I think, there's like four thousand or so locals that live there. There certainly religious people, conservative people, but also
Oh the hop in five of finally colorful friendlier, vibrant via yeah drinking, will add that's pretty elevated area. People are thirsty, abler thursday, you, if there's a coffee shop in the town that is one of the best cups of coffee. You can get that side of the mississippi and they also have a bookstore, that's in the coffee shop. That is
on both leave a ball and it is owned and operated by an interracial gay couple. Why so? The line is out the door cat island book store in coffee shop, its phenomenal. I think the part I was most curious of selfishly is that mom grew up pretty wealthy mom group
How staff in nanny yeah in the grandfather had been a mayor of Norland? My great great grandfather right, so my father's pass and I talk with complete reckless
disregard about him. I also mentioned nonstop. I love the daylight out of em. I might be unique in that, but there's a few things when you describe your mom that I would say, will you definitely stop short of ever coiner an ad
but it does seem clear to me from the stories that she was probably an alcoholic are much of her life story was impacted by having grown up one way and then not landed in that same spot. Well, I mean
initially did not have that with my father, because
He was a party or remove town to town. I always make the joke. You know an ear at some weird place and you turn to
running and now your dad worked here and I always joke like yeah he does and he needs to take our order, all those typical things of like he has a mustache. He drives a van he's got a gun in his boot like ordinary story tat. All that was no joke. My father
and my mother was fancy and that didn't work out between my parents
and then my mother remarried to my stepfather, I had a rick great stubby name that said step dad's, her name standard yeah, but he brought a lot of structure. He was an attorney, so it's not like my mother grew up and then went without or anything cause. My step father was successful and he was very reg.
And controlling yeah, maybe even within that that she, I dont, know enough about the situation, but maybe you had not marry someone that could take care of her even matters maybe
in the mix of having grown up one way, my understanding was that my grandmother, who was very controlling was like ok, susie. You had a year ago at it. Yes with this man,
is the idea, tat fiscal ali, no tomorrow perfect and she said now I'm going to introduce you to
a man in new orleans, the grandmother set this set them up on the prairie have yeah. When people would meet my mother and rick, it was so confusing cause. My mother was so wild and she was a drinker no doubt, but then she would go through periods of time where she would quit along with those laughs it would be.
months or years. Would she ever like join a programmer? Knowing no, I got his attitude willpower yeah, and so it was a real roller coaster.
She was wild from putting us too bad and then going out at night she climbed trees with us. We kicked the balls on the roof she climb up on the roof with us sheets are very,
martinis with the screws from her toe leir, jury and Allah, vs provocative or a little, but I remember a friend
my when I was in six grain- and I wrote about this in the book. It is time to take my friend home and my mother said diana
get on the hood of the car to go home and we were like yeah, and so we were holding on to the hood and she's driving us, and there is this guy that pulled up in a muscle, car and my mother was, like others can be held.
Areas and she pulls up on the wrong side of the road. So she could be next to him face to face and choose like you want to drag
she wasn't really going to drag, but she just wanted to lay the reality at one of the koran quote famous moments from my childhood was one my principal said: what, if your mother knew what you are doing, and I said well
if you knew what my mother was doing, and that was really how I grew up. Thinking like you can't really touch may because my mother is drove her brow,
gather in the street item tardy. I was talking in class. I don't even know what to say to you.
Stay tuned for more armchair
so you detail just what a rough time you were having in school. Yeah was its.
Dressy knew. How were you emotionally thinking? I'm fucked for life is so you want eighth grade twice. That's not the great deflect twice, because the difference between a fourteen year old
Seventeen year old, sixteen is an enormous difference,
all my friends when after high school right, so I was so humiliated that I was still an eighth grade after everybody went on and I failed again, but they move me up to nine and then I dropped out, and so I have technically a seven
at education. Both are you beating yourself up at all, I'm curious what the internal experience was real like I kinda buckled down and learned or like I'm, just never going to do it, and I don't care. I was never gonna do it. I remember I was in school suspension for whatever tardies or talking, I was never do
anything terrible when I think about what's going on today it was pga, he drove their catch. You haven't birth. I was sneak in the car out of smoking, so I was in school suspension
and I was in there for whatever thing I had done talking tardy and you get your first day
and then they deliver your class work and then, if you dont finish your class work, then you get another day added. I didn't
the way out, because I was looking at these papers and books pilot
I was thinking I dunno, who they think's going to be doing this, and it's certainly not going to be me cause. I don't do that when I'm not an in school suspension right right, that's how you got an in school suspension in the first rite, I'm in ninth grade and I'm like forty seven. This is in part your work truck. Alright, I got kids yeah, so I remember thinking I was just going to head out. The person in charge of in school suspension was one of the gym coaches, and so I got up from my desk and I was walking towards the door
and I remember the big coach any sooner because well well. Well, where do you think you're gone? I said I'm had known as like I'm done and he is a very real yeah as like I'm done, I'm going home
and then he had the. Let me go because I quit
and, as you were walking away from the school did you feel an explosion of freedom or dia any fear. Now I truly fell sick.
Early to when I realized. Oh, I may stand of committee in this field
right or I'm gay cause. I found myself always just plotting and planning. Where can I go just get a job and get
studio apparel ass, my real Y yeah did you have a call for what that quote. Real life was gonna, be here, look like we would like now. I just want to start. I pictured myself alone. It was like a cartoon. I pictured myself on a bicycle and a basket with a child in a hook. Hey aside pictured,
and one child, and in my head this whole childs name was Timmy. Oh and I was sort of adultery and unique everywhere, and that was the cartoon version that I would relate to people's ike me and little timmy. We're gonna go out into the world and I wanted to child that was comfortable anywhere, which is kind of what my mother made me and my brother yeah. Like I wanted a kid. You could go to a party and just let the judges with him in a few hours and just put him to bed on everyone's coats money on a shared, and I had a row. I didn't see a kid hold me back in anyway. I'm gonna be
m everywhere. We're just gonna, go, hang out and live this life together, mineral Timmy and I was very and music, and I wanted to either work in the music business or play me,
So as you get interested amusing and you gotta colorado, I'm curious what is your musical
honor and all over the place so eclectic. I am just as happy listening to
HU, the indigo girls to re charles to Van Halen to willie nelson gladys night? You love it all. Oh my gosh, I was also very
I like edi brick hell. I was just about to say Iti rubber bands and what an album also did you ever get the follow up ghost of a dog just made my girls listen to it in the pool like two weeks ago. My album did you stumble upon grenadine or any of these other. They were more female punk bands, but there are so many good ones around the same era. No, but I would love to hear maybe when I come cold,
and you can make our whole first will go through any propels entire graffiti eighty were killed, wrote the theme song from ipod cast out here. You have a personal friendship with her guy got to tell you when I played this outcome for the girls and then you start out. Who is she well and then I think she marry balls. I write ninety four. I sought guinea new information about her and I have a huge question mark of what happened yet she marry pause. I meant that he steamer and they are still married
I got a wonderful seemingly she stopped making albums, and I thought oh no, this marrying Paul thing. She did that she it she put out solo material, but also she joined forces with Steve Martin. In fact, I was nominated for grammy one year. I didn't know her, then, but they won best americana
album, I believe him on the banjo gear, and so I presented eighty per cow and Steve martin
I got to announce their win and I'm standing there and childhood tig. My comments.
And music loves are walking towards my face and I'm like handing them a grandma. That's so simulation it was so incredible, but for my podcast they said hey, we have some cash for you to hire someone to do music, and I said this is probably going to be way under
her fee, those whom you like, shooting rubber band that start ass, always if they so. I said I would love for every cow. If I could get
I of debris, for disaster yeah. I've only met her that brief moment handing her the grammy, but she didn't know who I was at the time and we didn't hang out or anything. I was just like, oh congrats, and it was through reps and people reaching out. She was like yeah and then I was on a call with her and she said I'm going to get on your nerves, cause I'm going to send you a lot of options, and I said:
I don't know who you're talking to send them all. I have the texas monthly magazine you were on the cover, so send them away for the rest of my life, but yeah we've maintained a friendship through email and we won't have it to one of the experience was was
love she ate oconnor. Some we asked is obsessed obsessed, obsess and then
the second movie I made. There was a moment where I had at one of her songs at the end, the movie and we are in the phase.
getting permission and they say well. She would like to watch the whole movie if she's gonna agree to license her song to it. So we sent her the whole movie and then I got forward the email I was
I love this movie so much I'd love to have my song in. Oh, my god. I just got shells yeah me too. That's obviously yeah did you watch your doc? I didn't it's a beautiful documentary. When did it come out this year? The moment in fact for me
and that would make me cry every time. As you know her story, she lived outside her mother, wouldn't let her live in her house. She's had to sleep in the garden, I mean just very abused child growing up at the apex of the irish catholic everything when she gets on stage and lets it fucking rip yeah to be that subjugated and oppressed, and still at some point go fuck you
I'm letting it rip beautiful. I dunno what it is about. It's always these female singers docks when they let it rip. No matter what I find to be the most moving thing in the world. I can't wait to watch that. I haven't cried that hard. My whole life, I don't think anyhoo yeah. I had that moment.
I was like, while this person she ate oconnor, she was some angel for me- has seen that I'm on planet earth, as well with her and an actual they consume something I made like that. While what a moment a yeah eighty tell me she and Paul watch the tick dhaka. Netflix! Isn't that
credible yeah. I dont know if she is seen anything much more of mine, but I also don't
that from her in you and yet the one I was gonna bring up was we were at school in everyone's? Like princess debt, do you remember this that happened down in texas when prince diet he hadn't died, but when I was in there,
great at the height of prince and purple reign. In the marines everything there was a rumour that circulated that I'm really sorry dad infer like two days as there is no internet or even everyone, morn prince being dad. I can't leave you don't remember me. I like its way down now. I don't know where I was being your school.
no way that we could look. This is one of these men Bela, but real like everyone. But yes, it was believed that news. That is why, no, I got your time you, those like. I wasn't a child. I know where I was when I heard them warm springs with my wife. Shoulder all your own, but living through purple rain is a whole experience. It's hard did not share or somebody using a yes stephanie is not of purple rain purse and eight this on issues as they are
added. Yes, I can see now like. If I can pull myself out of it's power, I can realize everything's a little pervy from that whole stretch. I can see if you didn't grow up with it, it'd be different than it is to
I don't know how it is humanly possible to not be obsessed with the sun purple rang when Stephanie looked at me and said I dont get
You gotta question. Let me like I don't get you hear it reminds me of you know whatever that noise is that you play and some people here, something and then other people here. That other thing I don't know, maybe I will need to rephrase knows I don't know like the blue dress goal dry. The hanging like the same thing with hearing things and I feel like maybe She'S- got a clue
dress and I got a gold dress. I don't know, but what are you talking about? Some people? Cilantro anti soap
well thats, a genetic mutation. Maybe there's something I think she's eating so she hears. She has a genetic mutation yeah, it's cause she's wrong, it's not up for debate. It's a masterpiece are seeing taylor, swift, plus she's itself. I I would love to
but I'm only in town for oh yeah few days, that's right where you're going well, I was on a family vacation and then I came in town to do stand up to cancer. The katie couric event that she does pro cancer early yeah proclaimed as the family still in monta they're, actually in colorado- oh my god yeah, but we're a full blown on the most family vacation summer we've ever had. Who have you been to montauk? No, I haven't I've only heard of it being the chill laid back surf. Part of long island is perfect. I
in it suits our family. Just fine. We were like we'll will be back every summer. Vizier coasts folks know a thing or two about how to spend summertime. How to summer happening. Yes, lorry light linger. She was one of my favorites when I was coming up even before I started sat up and in her book, which is so great. She makes a joke if somebody asking where it is she
summer lying outside they fund feel may vacations, for you are they work? We have to seven years.
Yeah. I have two seven year olds. I mean I can't help but be both of those things not vacationing and vacationing. I have to say, though, we ve had a really great time, a lot of hanging down the beach afar.
kids he'll just stand out in the water and as the waves crash in he just yells,
yes
I mean just loving it. You know, and you can't get a man from the waves. These just
so pure yeah and there still at that age were no shame to ask their two moms to come: hold hands with them in the waves, and this is their idea
The yellow family, while we john why, where there were also are holding hands, Edwards is jumping kneeling before it is too, if you're on a beach watching this you're, like the almost got divorced there like a man trying very dear my friends and I had mentioned, we visited in ohio, they had a family based
asian every year, there's five kids to parents. I think the grandmother lived thumb and they have a lot of money and they would pile everyone in the station wagon. They drive over the ohio kentucky border and it just said, welcome the kentucky, and then there is a
tell they're called the drawbridge motel and they would get a room and they would
all cram in there just to go swimming in the pool, and they then like a weekend or a week, arrogance in some anti promptly. So my kids are definitely getting more than the drawbridge metallic yeah, but it doesn't help to explain to them of the alternative is always a register from nothing helps when we were no high. Oh, I had told them in front of our friends. I said if you do not agree on some,
and then we will not go to the Cincinnati reds game and my son fin. They call me mare, which is french for mother and he said mare,
you always say that you're gonna do not let us do something, but you never do
and I called out
so embarrassed now. You ve been well in a corner and now you're in big trouble. Yes for me not as an observer in front of all
family, pointing out that I actually don't do anything to discipline. I dont know followed like yeah. That was a tactical blunder on whose and beer reminds me
one time my mother was spanking, my brother and I guess we had been fighting endlessly and while she was spanking me, I started laughing
and she's a single mother over her head. I think she felt so powerless to boys there now laughing when she's
thanks. She sinister room where, in our bunk beds the door full eyes open like almost off the hinges and she's holding this a rubber slap
little rubber tracking run in your heart- wheels she's just whirling dirt swinging it wildly hitting us like crazy
broker, as he's like they're, not even afraid of me, and it doesn't even her when I hit them you're
well getting the hotwheels now laugh at the screaming. We thought she was going to murder us if we felt we were dying. Oh my god, we broke like you, get the sense that we push too far and she's now broke yeah. It's also twenty seven. I dunno, if she's young, when I think back, I think of her as my age, but she wasn't. She was a kid raising the three kids smack
the shit out of us with this. We bring that up to her once a month
only time. Anything like that, I have received lost her cool and what is worse is that out of us. So what did you want me to? Do? I get it, but yes, we re her over the coals about the time she be.
Without we'll trend men can, you imagine,
It says no judgment about your mother, but can you imagine doing that now, of course not even spank, my kids, but hey? It's not! Eighty! Three, your culture tells you exactly what to do. When you do it, I mean if you lost it and just
herded norma feeding a kid.
Discriminatory
the indiscriminate agnes of the experience, was so clear. She lost, then, was a whole other world of horror. When you went back to your hot, we'll, try
can I pay as soon as he has the associated with it, but she left the room. We were like off spock
What was more scary than getting hit with the hot wheel track was, we may have broken mom yeah like we went too far. Oh she's, our human, I think we're like oh she's, a human who might lose or control because of us right yeah. So we did some course correcting.
After that, but ultimately is probably productive for her. Here. I didn't know that still was happening in the eighties. I thought of a strictly like it ended in nineteen. Seventy nine,
no, not only did it not an and when I think you would have as apparent in eighty three felt your response,
simple for not smacking your kids.
I really believe that I think you would amend like I'm fuckin just to soft on them and I'm running these children and all my neighbours are beating the should other kids. What am I a just a regular?
ignore tar over here no followed through writing a bunch of checks. By asking you know it's newer than you think I got spanked, my brother got spanked and he was born in ninety six. I thank you.
I can try your inspiring to know.
Whole show about a member that whole show this mac or something I didn't want David Kelly, one gal, I gave my ears and a ballot kid gets spanked in front of all these. Other parents had a swimming pool and there's like
whole show about it. Well, I can't even imagined pitching confidence. I just where I can get spangles it'll go. First saw the incident in things about used, unravel yasser what hath regularly hunger mounted on upon cast everything. Look, I'm up two opinions. One is, I didn't feel it no sir, it ever it might be,
I'm also not standing here on a fucking moral high ground telling other parents. I don't have an opinion. I don't know what happens. I think cultures a lot of it if all your friends are getting spankings and you're getting a spanking. I don't think it's that big of a deal if you're getting
thinking is unknown and that you know is you'll start feeling like. Oh, my god, my parents don't love, but also, then you go, whereas the beginning and the end of a spanking. What is a spanking look like because then somebody could say I just spanked the kid and then it's like yeah, but the kid is also my grandma, who adored us and took great care of us she'd say: go get the yardstick sheets, paddle us with a yardstick not like go get the hot wheel flat. That was proprietary. That was a novel approach to settling okay. I want to fast forward a second through you go to colorado. You come out
Ellie music, related mission, Yonah doing stand up. Mew foam overstated
you realize none. This is what I'm supposed to be doing with my life. You have a very respectable stand up career. You just mentioned it. I think a lot of people be aware of it, but some people won't, but in order you have
possible year and in line with our mormons yes- and I won't deny you the order, what I'm saying is. I know you ve talked about that parlour. I want to say what was most interesting to me about your documentary is on the backside of it that to me as very fascinating bubble kit there. I just want you to know where my own interest lies in it. I'll tell you the
buying stuff you're, not interested in who I am I do for you now. When I was working on in a world he didn't know, I had three potentially deadly illnesses simultaneously. I had no
sonya. Actually that was the last time I ever talked to my mother. I was lying in bed. I thought I had a cold and she was telling me the typical thing: a mother tells you to drink orange juice and rest. You were close. You and your mother yeah. We had a very up and down roller coaster relationship but yeah. In fact, she was planning on coming out to visit me when I was in bed sick thought I had a cold and went to urgent care. They gave me antibiotics because they said I had actually
yeah and has a cost so intends to have pneumonia, and then I was in so much pain. I can't even explain I didn't know I had developed this disease called see death, which is a back terrell infection in the digestive tract. Everybody has seed if in their gut and its fine, if everything is all in there, all the different bacteria working together, you some back to keep the sea different track, yeah seat of keeping other things right and you can contracts Edith from other people, its highly contagious or you can get it from eta by attics. Antibiotics can just clear out your system and then see death. If that's left to remain it just grows, and just each year insight
It has no competitors any mark as you right out the out good bacteria and it just destroy zeal, and I didn't know I had that and so yeah I had pneumonia see death and then I got out of the house.
At all, and my mother had tripped, hit her head and had to take her off life support and then my girlfriend and I split up and then I was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. All within four months, mom falls in front of rick brick and her sauce out that she's fine. She stays up
watch tv he goes to bed. He comes out the morning, she's bleeding out of her nose. He asked elsewhere yeah she has never conscious again.
I mean that is such a crazy story and, what's even crazier ten years to the day march, twenty eightth, twenty twenty two I took recourse.
I know he died of nazi death. Now, oh my march, twenty four days after your birthday,
yeah I mean every year I always headed towards my birthday having this ptsd of like oh, this is when I was diagnosis. This is when I collapse. This is when I
and then in twenty twenty two last year I was starting to go through my ptsd.
and then I got a call nobody's heard from wreck. The police went, kicked his door and they found em
and what I had imagined when you have stated that bad day you know money but be we come very malnourished, goes nuttier food can absorb into your intestines cause. It's all completely proliferated with this budget area. Its energy star,
today, even if you're eating my was obviously one of the lucky ones that made it through all of us things, but it was insane for me. He didn't know what cd flies when I had it and just to have that recollection of explaining it to him and going through it while my mother's funeral was going on and everything that was happening
and then he died of it. Ten years later, my mother died technically on march twenty ninth, but I took them both off of life support on march
the eighth. I my mother lived for hours and went into the twenty ninth. Then she actually died, but yeah march twenty
It is weird date for me. I think this is worth shouting
now. I realize he pretty immediately was encouraging you to talk about all this stuff you're going through in that moment, had you had the surgery yet freer cancer? No,
haven't even begun treatment yet and he's urging you to talk about it, and that obviously, is a hurdle for you. I didn't know why his telling me to talk about it on stage, because I was a very different person and a very different comedian. Before all this happened. I wasn't really sharing personal things. In fact, when I was really sick, I kept it to myself at first IRA had known that I was sick with c diff, but when I was diagnosed with cancer, he was like you have to talk about this on stage it was almost borderline offense,
if to me, because I was thinking that descends like now boy- did it to yourself yeah and took a daughter all of it. I just and understand why he would say that and then I had this show booked at margo. I had this ongoing monthly show their hair in los angeles, and I had called the owner plan again and just said really and about play some council, and he also was like, but just keep it up,
Books in case you wanna do the show, and I was like what's wrong favour like do you hear me, I can't eat food, I mean I have invasive cancer. I just buried my mother. I just wanna go lie down. Do I have to say the half for you to say to all night all the nightmare of situations that year like, I hope I never get cancer. I don't want my mother died. I don't wanna be alone. Also I'm typing this to you, because my learning will remove failure. The job has just see what we are sad fingers. Your tightening whiteboard, so he said he I, u can cancel. Even if it's a step before you walk on stage, you decide, you know I do it as I go K and then, as it got closer, I just thought well,
but to assure them that becomes a really enormous chapter of your life. You record this sat, there is no video available. Cosette was against largo
rules, but there is an audio recording the people that witness this show found it insanely, profound and moving.
Experience for people gets talked about, it gets kind of viral, and then you ultimately release an album that I don't know
it was a bit when you are on a talk, show that it's really called live. It's called live just to have to correct people every time. Yes, because of course you wanna say, live if alike,
we must live album. Article live lives is look it's a big out.
and then you got nominated for a grammy, for it became the number one selling comedy album in the world. I remember my record label calling me and saying you sold more albums than kiss. It was on the pop charts. You know I was a big kiss fan as a kid and
somebody was like. I gonna tell you what's going to happen, but you're going to our records, then yeah yeah cause you're. My mouth choose this path stay tuned for more arms. If you dare
the so you have this incredible experience by being honest about this thing, but then you're like now. Where do we go from here and it was very paralyzing in that? I have great sympathy, for I could see that nine times out of ten kind of ending someone. I thought it might. I remember saying to my manager at the time when is this attention going to end, and this is days into it and he was like what do you mean yeah I was like I don't know like. When is everybody going to go back to their lives and not be interested in this and he was like? I don't know. If that's going to happen, I couldn't believe that weeks and months and years went by and people were still interested in it and I have a better understanding of it now because of course, people connect to that and people understand, you're, a human being and you've fallen and you're acknowledging it and you're talking about it and you're showing
everybody yeah me too, when I was going through. All of that and people are using the word brave. It was so confusing because I didn't feel brave. I was just staying alive and continued to breathe, but the reality was. I was very sad and I was alone crying. I was so confused by that word or even the way we talk about it, they're going to fight cancer.
Implied oh, that person didn't fight hard. Enough is exactly the implications. My dad was a quitter. I guess you know my stepdad was a quitter. I dunno all the language around. It was a little uncomfortable for me because, especially when you are part of that world and community, you see people dying and they fought. As
It is the next person then went out in order that yeah yeah we're not brave right. It was very confusing because
career had always chugged along just fine. I was not ever somebody complaining
that you weren't sarah her something as they are seldom yet. No, I never even thought I could be
Sarah Zimmermann, and nor could I visa result rent or anybody else, but I dont know if it's the under achievers,
me. You were delighted that you are making a living in this thing ass. Well to do. I failed three grazing dropped out a high school. I am telling jugs traveling the world. I have made it and have a complaint, and so having all that attention on me was very uncomfortable, and there is a lot of talk about. Oh tags finally found her voice and she's a dark truth tat
you're, an that confused me because I love silly now said I tell people. I am one hundred percent, no nonsense, but I am one hundred percent only nonsense, but I love living as close as I can, to the truest most authentic version of life
for myself, but I didn't know that that was necessarily gonna be made, that it can be gone on stage and getting into at every time yeah ass, a lot of fresh. Is there a thought of, like all my tragedies are over? What's gonna be
an ex special. I one million per cent, especially if you go back to the documentary so embarrassing, because I was a groan person who thought that. Well, I went through everything
and now life is just smith said I mean what else could I possibly
we go through and then when I was approached to do this netflix documentary, I thought well yeah. This is a victory. Lap
began in my highlights of the good life now and
I had no idea that of blackness doesn't work that way. You still get curve balls and rough moments. I thought I got everything out the way, the regret of a work our way
it would be incredible if you were like well. Finally, it's kind of like when you pay into social security at some point out that moment where you capped out on trauma in your life. I remember with my cancer diagnosis. No part of me thought I had cancer
and when they were like. Oh, we found something like what
going on here and then I remember the doktor comes in and she says: how are you feeling than I am
with his feels like
leading quieting yeah, ok, my camp member, exactly what she said, but I remember saying to her or use saying that I have cancer and she said why I can't say for sure, but what I am looking at does indicate quite possibly think you do. I wanted to say my
they're just died, my girlfriend and I just broke up, I'm still struggling with seed. I can have cancer awry
come over here and that broke me in that way where I was like? Ok,
This is so, is very lazy. Writing there are like we need to bring the series to a club now everyone out an idea. We describe how
jumped the shark a little bit on that we've. Just so many me out at the funeral that we do cancer. I think we need to do cancer before I did a special a couple of years ago, where I tell a story about when Jenny slate was moving from new york to l a. She is not one of my closest friends in the world she's, just an old pal from stand up and she reaches out just like hey, I'm moving to l a- and I said oh cool, I'm sick right now, but when I feel bad
her ass. She said. Would you like to get tee and I said yeah sure I'll be fine in a few days, so let's have tea. She reaches out again and she's. Like
ere, you feel and better- and I said oh actually, I'm in the hospital I have this intestinal disease
more sexy and she was getting married at the time and she said: oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. She said I'm actually going back to massachusetts,
it's I'm getting married and when I come back what
t so we'd kick it down the road than she reaches our wages. Marriage like cows are gonna leg. I now like an addict by the way or like we had someone that we will have hired for something there was like their mom died three times
in other sister was incarcerated twice its periodic d, like they forgot how many times they first yard in problem, the sound like she's got fuckin ireland action without
same cause. She's like hey, I'm back in town, hope, you're, feeling better gonna get tee and his leg jenny, my mother died and she was sick
I know this is all over text. This is just somebody trying to move to l a and have yeah to be like hey. She doesn't need you to help her move furniture to the table, then I'm like I just took my mother off life, support we're doing funeral stuff when she's like tig, I'm so sorry. I was like thank you so much. She reaches out again, I'm like
Honey. I'm doing a lot better. My girlfriend, I did just break but will get the tina themselves better than a good she raises.
Again my phone jenny sleigh. I start to feel bad for her of war is a surprise. Her text wasn't what do you care now tat? I realized tat. I m sorry, I have cancer have tea, but what was so fun was one jenny finally came over after I had surgery and she brought tee for us too. How wonderful and a friend of mine had got one of those big balloon bouquets. You know that takes up like the whole room, sure I couldn't even really walk across the room. I was so weak cause. I was also still dealing with sea deaf and all of it was still going
I lived in downtown allay had laughed at the time. I sir I've just been lying here on my couch fantasizing about put
and note on this balloon bouquet, pushing it out of my window and just being like hey. This is tig, I'm coming through cancer and she was like tig. We gotta do that and I was like okay, so she
open the window, and I like it, I, like an over there, were like trying to push these balloons again, the film on what we are trying it out of the window and they go out and if it's gonna be this big symbolic.
like I've come through it all, and then the balloons got caught on the fire escape a guy's apartment. Right above me who I have to see in the elevator, and I just looks like I wrote him a note saying: have it down here, struggling or so my hulk there that's almost identical to the story.
about someone's birthday party man, all these dubbs and they all sat all these teases oranges
now. Let me doves cry, so they releases doves in a bunch. One flew through the tea.
turn. It went from this very beautiful birthday celebration tube,
If you have doves on fire. More worst thing that could ever happen is a big birthday party and everyone's gotta just deal with the fact that they just saw this and think how bad of luck that person thought they were going to have for the rest of the year.
is rob. Your balloons remind me of a vegan person, I'm not thrilled about birds being charred anywhere or celebratory. Oh no know sorry, but you don't have one.
The cancer in everything arise. I raised today about he's dead doves, but now now, but I guess in the dark- I see that you ultimately do get back on stage in order so perfectly for you. But how do you get yourself to just go like ok, yeah? I did that thing. I'm associate.
With that I don't have cancer anymore, I'm not going to be more material about avenue, but here I come. How do you steel yourself for the return? I did have a lot of stress and pressure around. What am I going to talk about and worrying about what the audience was going to expect of me, and then I started to reflect on the beginning of my standup career and all of the years leading up to that moment that I did that show.
My style is changed in so many different ways. Just as you do as a performer artists, we are telling your truth, but europe changing vessel right. I started out doing one liners, even though I'm very dry, I was so dead pans.
Try one liners and then it would kind of grow. Till I'd, tell a story, and then I would do bits with the stool on stage. So I'm like okay, well, that's kind of like prop humor. Could ever vegas stage show
and I really thought about how just like I told a twenty minute story about running and tailor dane or pushing a stool around on stage. I can always change and do things, and I don't have to be this one.
person or performer forever, and nor would I wanna be, and I've never been. I have dementia feel some kind of pressure, because once you become symbolic to a struggle a you know how motionlessly connected people are too that you feel like you, have some pressure to keep telling their side.
Well, I mean lucky for them my medical issues didn't and and
now then well fell over the area. So I shared many stories of being in a diaper to having internal bleeding I've. Sir.
lay gone to that well again, and that well continues to morocco over here. So there's that I remember being backstage in a show I was in. I was city. I've always loved iowa, but I was city is very special to me because I was
out on the road. Again, it was one of the biggest venues at the time that I had done. I think I was doing two shows in this theatre in iowa city.
and it was kind of the beginning of me getting back on the road and seeing how my following had grown. I was full of nerves beforehand, because I really wanted to give the audience what they want in that's the exact statement for me right there, something ships right like I can't imagine, you're proceed through comedy prior to that with that thought. No because I was at the time, still a comedian that was headline in clubs and most often when you're headline in clubs, you have fans, but you also of people that are like outlets, go the colony club right, whereas when you're headline theatres, your name is on the market. We see you in that can fuck you up for sure, but I also made a decision backstage and I will say
yeah before I walked out on stage. I thought I gotta let go of this feeling of pressure and I have to hope that whoever's out there in the audience that has any sort of expectations about what I'm going to say or do that they will be open to and embrace whatever. I choose to do tonight, because I hope that they're, a fan of mine and not just a fan of hearing comedy about cancer. I walked out on stage and I just did whatever I wanted talked about whatever I wanted and it was not. Cancer related in the cancer files were okay with it. That's right, the love
excitement and acceptance in that room. That night, I'm like iowa city man, you're, not gonna, shake me ever. I love going back there and it was just a pivotal moment for me because that's when I realized in order to make the audience happy, I have to be happy, and so I try not to get concern.
with that what they expect or want. No, because if a performer is enjoying themselves, will that's the journey of self love.
right ways is I'm a mouth period I'll be enough. If I'm talking about a grocery store experience of enough,
I don't want my cancer experience. That's hopefully, maybe the journey of life, which is like none, I'm fine, unworthy of all things. I agree and I've been ass. Many times
being a female khamenei inner being the gay community honour the cancer comedian? Get cancer tat people ask all the time like? Are you worried about being pigeonholed and honestly, I don't care. If people call me,
The lesbian committed an or the cancer comedian. It has nothing to do with me. That's your choice. You can call me the worst canadian. That also does not have anything to do with me, and so I just don't worry myself about that.
but in moments of insecurity, or be easy for me to convince myself that it was the story that made people love that sat. It was the circumstances, but in fact we would now in the healthiest version of yourself with recognise. No, no, it was that experience going through my point of view. It's my
point of view. That's the quintessential ingredient, not the story, not the event is actually the way I sent the size, everything that so appealing to other people, fans from the forty thousand twelve would say, pisses me off that this is what took you to have cancer for people alike, ill or people to know you- and I was like I dont know
oh if I am clueless or stupid, but in my mind I don't even think of it is that I think of it like I was doing what I always did. Witches stand up and I of course was talking about cancer, but that's how I see it. That's the
because there is a lot of people that had the same in the series of events that would try to process at onstage in people we have been talking about it. The events are almost inert. There are things that could happen. Anyone
None of our great telling a story in some people are not. I had a very crazy experience in edinburgh and when I was doing stand up at the festival several years ago, this woman came up to me and she said: hey David, said heiress
it's performing in town. He was unable to go to your show. He wanted me to come and invite you to meet him at this place for dinner, and I was like oh okay and it seemed a little odd
I had met David through this american life, he's not like a close friend or nearly so. I
whom my show and I didn't commit to it. I was just like ok thank you and then I thought well I'll get a taxi and go to this place.
If it seems legitimate, so I take a taxi over there and I pull up and David said heiresses standing outside and unlike this
insane and we go and is nice restaurant. We have truly like a four or five our dinner, but he had just lost his sister and he was
struggling with how to talk about it on stage, and he was taking my brain about that because he is like. I can't make it funny. Actually now I'm talking about this, I wonder if he wouldn't appreciate, I don't know, he's our most frequent gas than I have developed. This friendship,
with him. I feel confident that he would like to hear it. I get those roundabout. If I'm here he's honest about everything, will that's the thing I stopped and wander cosette was a very intimate. It was also just like a nice fun dinner, but he was really wanting to talk about his sister and find some levity. There- and I found myself in this place,
I don't even know what to tell somebody right just goes. I did it doesn't mean. I understand how I did a year. I didn't even know what to tell him and I was also a little stun to even be trying to give
but sir Darras cosmetic advise anything even just being at a dinner with whom I was like, I'm not worthy to be, of course, much less give you any sort of advice on how you were out of the room was I went before you brought about your past. The kitchen love worry is among the knowledge of saying how flattering always so
flatter. I've had that with a few other people were they ve asked. How do I get it
this. What do I do? And man was I not
sure how to do it. I even did I relate to that a lot. I'm sure I don't know how I'd do anything. I do that people might want to I'm not sure and I'm afraid if I figured it out, I would not be able to do it anymore,
I say more than half of your life only makes sense ten years later, and it only makes sense cause we're storytellers and we figure out how to make it make sense, but it doesn't make any fucking sense. I remember one of the things that my therapist said that I just love so much. He had said that you can never tear out a chapter in your book of life that you should share it all, because if even one chapters missing then the whole book makes no sense, and I was like
that's great love, so much
through the asset, constant moving toward honesty and nothin.
city and reality once in a while. You have those moments worth all these, seemingly disconnected pursuits all come together.
There yeah while I was in a drumming
stand up and I love short stories,
will you? Finally, I know you are not made for grammy when you are super india, music, but you are nominated for calm and how many like how crazy you grew up. I'm sure thinking about the ramey a year
You do end up there, but for something sort of completely different to give aid Aber kill her grand. That's right, that's leather ladder. She could write a theme song. It all just falls into place. Actually, ok, while I'm referencing alot your book, I'm just a person and in its wonderful- and I hope he will read it. Also, I loved the dark, but I think monica you would love it
she went through the whole fertility process and has, in the main, didn't take to the host and all my guts for heartbreaking. Monica just did a show by freezing her eggs. That's great. I did have a weird question to ask: you,
How weird this requires you to maybe try to articulate your appeal, which is a very dicey.
Fishing to put some anymore I'll start first. I think that I have appealed the boys
in this very weird way. I've come to figure out, which is I ride motorcycles. I have muscles. I have been in lots of this fights and I
love, emotions and talking about addiction in failing and crying and be molest.
In all these things that boys aren't really supposed to talk about, and so I think
Boys like there's a way that I can share emotional,
I was thinking about you on my hike today, listening to your book, and I was thinking I know so many women who are really really really drawn to you. They love your comedy but there's another layer to it and, as I was
thinking about it. I'm gonna suggest because your committee
dick tone, has always been very dry in very kind of
no tone ask it's not been performative
people, please he at all and
can imagine for a one.
To see another woman not jumping through all the hoops to comfort everybody at all times and pleased them.
that you might be inspirational on that same way. Have you ever thought about? That is at a weird point to make I dont think about it. You come across as someone who's, not people, please or just because of the tone of your comedy so funny I dont feeling I am except. I think
kids in my life, and it is new for me because they ve only been in my life for ten years. I love seeing myself bend over backwards and do what ever anything takes,
Keep that thing the air from exploding. There are just like everyone to be happy and get what they want. I mean, obviously I dont nail it all the time and I'm not always bending over backwards all the time, but I know that it comes up with other comedians will say. When I go on stage, I'm just das bread and there, like you, don't feel
at all desperate any comedian with a very slow tempo seems extra brave
you're living in a lot of quietness before the joke comes in. So I think a lot of comedians admire other comedians elon. I would always watch her and I just go my god. Her confidence to let it brew to the breaking point is admirable. I'm too much of an approval junkie, the ever living at that long, because I think there's that other,
means admiring the confidence it takes to have the tempo you have and a few other comedians have had
I do think there's another layer which is gender based, I'm a fan, and I agree. I do think there is a sense of confidence and you don't need approval, and I know you need approval or not it.
comes off as if you don't and yeah we're all walkin around, like the way to be a successful woman is to gain everyone's approval, which is fucked up. But that's what we're in grain?
I believe and then to see someone who's, successful, funny, great and doesn't necessarily and also specifically male approval. It's like yes, I want that. I want to be bad
I mean I can't act like I don't enjoy approval. I now I'm rehearse ere. I love having good shows and I like when people tell me, I did a good job with stuff, but I also go back
to my mother, she raised me like, if anyone has a problem with, you tell them to go to hell and it's hard when you hear that your whole life to shake it. I remember she was at the gym. My mother was very
you're a fallen, not that you have to be beautiful for someone to flirt with. You have never heard her, but this guy came up. She said he was flirting with me and then he made some derogatory homophobic comment like thinking I was gonna. Make me laugh
and she's talking to the wrong person, my daughter's gay
I said it stopped at right. They're wrong person go right, and so it's kind of like what you're saying when you're dating the sweet spot with the gas, how far peoples-
go to hell and when to tell them to go to hell, and does everyone need to go to hell right? I am a patient person and I don't fly off the handle
easily, and I try and give people the benefit of the doubt. You know they're not call him back her the sums
delayed or their later compassionate yeah. I try and think. Ok, hopefully there not none the car accident. Hopefully something didn't happen. Demanding just
right and it might be because I went through that- add where I'm like a lot of things can happen in a sack in, and so I do have that in me, but then, when it does get to a point there
and go straight to hell. I probably carry that on stage with me. I carry it everywhere, not that I'm right or that I'm good
at what I'm doing or that I'm the best or any of that. So I have a good dose of go to hell as well, and I delineate between
deserves, go to hell not is like. If you disagree with me, fine, if you may be disapprove of
If you attempt to shame me for who I am that's very clear and simple for me, you can go to Hell. I don't have time for that and I think that's probably similar for me but yeah. When somebody can go to hell, they can really go to Hell.
That don't even pick up snacks ear straight there straight ahead, ok,
you have a new podcast that comes out august. Twenty second period beam song. While this isn't it
rico now or no. No, no, that's long gone

answer my how well nobody more handsome than the three of us vaguely out money when I'm reading older literature, how often they would refer to women as being handsome that doesn't sound super flattery nowadays. Well, it depends on what kind of you I am, but I think if we just like, I guess, of what percentage of the country
women would love being told their handsome. I think it's a low percentage, there's a handsome man, there's handsome women there's a handsome suit. A beautiful woman can have on a very handsome. The word feels a little flexible and fluid in the way human beings are, whether you like the word or not. I love it. I'm so excited to be part of a handsome.

seven louis stern. Look, I'm angry muslim brothers, they're mine, a mammoth says. Second, there an enemy just like we're all tied. Yes, well, it's a great, credible doc. You series, and it has gotten me:
very excited for college football. For the first time in my life, I've only watch, I don't know for five college football games, most of them bureau, Lana
your georgia dog outcome and Malta,
So now, if you say that
I'm telling you know now tell me now. If you start running for the gaiters like we really are going out
problem, I'm not gonna route for the gaiters, but it's what an incredible journey. They took an interest visit,
TIM tito time. I didn't here's what I knew about him table. I knew that there,
as a few, there is
spell daring, I don't know how many seasons ago,
six seasons ago in the nfl, where everyone was obsessed with this tim tebow guy, I like who is he we praise after every play? That, of course, for me, was a little experimental, yeah yeah, it's just like praying after every
Maybe that was an exaggeration, but whatever else like you go to church, do you think I'm a whole, nay meetings in the middle of my what,
well yeah here prerogative. He cannot terrain, you can protest stuff, which I do. Support yeah, like touchdown dance was praying was suddenly,
Why don't you? Let me do you guys? Era has now gone way. Audibly goes every play you will in time for that you ve got like. I think he he's is its lending super leah, women,
de my
if you're, a christian and you ve just turned it off and screamed at me hold on a second. So
it was the little Joe come back come back and I was a little charged, but that's okay, to admit that
your change your mind. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, I do
wow. Now I'm going to go, you know I watch allowed boxing.
And then, when they were the when they would say god let him went, and I thought then you're saying god made the other person lose. I do I don't like it it's what anyone looking for you that that's all he knew about timetable now I want to stock, I loved him. People know, listen, that's not pull them.
worries not playing for the gaiters, and I don't like all of you know even like, or maybe I now all we never know now that he eyed, I maverick laugh because a phrase after every maybe he's a jackass. Oh my god
careful. Why was that it will be applied
it wasn't like we crossed over. Yes, I was
Will they rolled right over there
I'm just saying they went under this answer. Forget that that's not! My birth
Were they love? So ok, he was entirely home school like never ever went to school,
he worked on this farm he's enormous right, he's a big farm boy. Think of god
I from never been at school to showing up at the university of florida in the swamp. With
I don't know how many students they have ten thousand is enormously big school. In there
well so excited he's. There exist like the top recruit out a high school that year, so he
it's from no classmates ever to ten thousand that are obsessed with them. What a bizarre like! That's just worth like talk about a light switch. He immediately befriends the absolute last person. You would think he would befriend on the team. The sky styler think that's his name, hairstyles hairstyles and corinthians times he was the defensive. It's all you know huge star kind of leader of the team and he this dudes hard
or tat, he's not praying after everything, he's bang and beers back at night in tebow's like I want to hang out with you because you're the fiercest person,
listing a nose to start working out in a manner that no one was ready for and they become brows because they're, so hell bent on being good. You can cannot help it like this guy. He works so heart impossibly heart
It just made me really excited for college football for the first time, I'm excited for you for me that you like it and will watch some games together. Maybe you'll get so
into a maybe will go back to the national championship, probably not
though they gonna go with the thirty six year old, I'll knock on when you have you heard that thirty sexual quarter
he's gotta be gone. Now, though, isn't he not thirty six? What is he thirty two now he's soon, as it hits that yeah no he's great and he's gone. Alright, I think I dunno. I have a lot to ask my friend, Robbie yeah, he's kind of year he's my go to. I have to ask him about who the quarterback is. I have to ask,
why exactly we hate january about jails and yet a mixed there's, no evidence. There are reasons other than the fact that they beat us new issues very florida
I florida disney we're all, but I hate the gaiters. Ok,
as on record saying man sorry to arm cherry gaiters. I love you guys. Yes, but I hate the gaiters. Everyone knows or tat, monsieur le maire right. I don't really have anything
swords berlin's, so I guess I'm like the worst of the worse. You see away with positive feelings about having gone.
in love. This yeah- I just don't have that like, but that I dont like I guess if I
either in the final for whatever I'll be happy again
I do I'm not like you with the dog on second. The thing is it usually isn't it, even though they have good sports?
it's not a school about rallies around the sports are no tailgating, really like in a parking
watch me or they will think the best thing about the brewing games is there in passing that the rose wall, then you park on the golf course. I know, because a great place to hand you have to derive from the camp is too.
to pass a deal is none of that is not can of europe for college student during your right
to be able to stumble home blind.
he drank, isn't saw by cheaper.
To get a. They have a bourbon street and yet called its called bourbon street, a bar,
the other thing, the bar. It was the bar back then, and of this it's still there, where freshmen could get in
like you, can use a sort of dodging the earlier and so good, and that is where my first main drink was
otto sour y yeah, a we drink summit,
amaretto sours aben street,
sadly little two eyes wing yeah, now ringgan licorice yours, I can't even imagine having an amaretto sour now occurred but yeah. I guess
What I'm saying is: u c, l a is more known for its academics over it sports, even though again they have good sports, but it is not. The school doesn't rally yeah, but I just wanted we would have to factor. I think
does have more championships than most good sport, but its if the school itself is not its. Not sport are worrying. Yeah yeah likes unity. Florida is
it is you go there because you love the gaiters, I think exactly, and they actually, I got in a fight with someone, because it's actually it certain degrees.
are really good there. Ok, how are you sure I don't wanna universal still, and I got enough. I was somewhat about that. As I was like there's no way
like there's, absolutely no way everyone there
slim as I'm gonna guess what it was
They were saying I have a great department of physio, it's not
exactly know no physical therapy right, which I
now those utterly investigator I'd hate to that's. Where gaiters comes from that's, what's called gator aid. How I didn't I can't drink there. Well, I've been drinking
you have during its Mari sugary, so I
boy, nervous euro there. Anyone who told you had better if you drink element many way,
the agreed. So I got ya gonna, for it was a pity I dont think other. Maybe they have a good pity programme, but they do
has a great pity programme. I know because I have to pity friends that borri reminds I came out of there and there are the best of the best. So I don't remember what it was
but I remember I got in a fight like theirs:
I want everyone, there is a woeful, dumb dumb, but it's not true. I don't all. This is very timely, though cause doesn't the season must start really soon.
yeah. What's the first hour, nobby car
european farm? He beat the gonna gassed parts
Saturday who what I mean
Levin thirty? I am navy verses. Noted
same. Oh my god, the ends are square and who are his georgia playing on a bad fan. I am a bad fan. I acknowledge that george's first game of september. Second, okay against tennessee, Martin we're going to kick their ass. Oh my god wait. What was it? I got distracted september. Second is georgia's first game. We have some time yeah a little breather,
yeah cause. I don't think you care that much about notre dame vs navy yeah. No, I'm all about the scc, the dogs playing de plane that I just learned about the
as you see in this guy you're entering this is the biggest tar and is the hard core there. Now that you're in
two it maybe we should go to a game
yeah I'll find out at every time there showing these games online. I gotta go to one of these colleagues. Were there but man, it's unbelievable. This first names in ireland, the noted amber
mary science, natural, naturally kicking off the season in ireland conference. Are they the east atlantic
the islands, northern the north sea and land- oh, my god anyway. Anyhow, ok wanted to bring something that was the sort of a ding ding ding dimension boxing, because our friend on it,
started. Taking boxing was oh, she did. I didn't know that yeah she really likes it. I was with ana recently and she was reenacting. A story that had to do with somebody touching their face
It's funny, okay, and so she put her hand on my face like to show it yes, and then you know we're finished and then, like six minutes later, she said that was weird. When I touched your face, oh and I was like what do you mean she's like that felt weird, it felt like weird to touch your face and she's like people like
you don't really touch people's faces. No, it didn't feel weird to me to have her hands on my face, but then I started
king about it and she's right. You don't really touch people's faces very much in life.
Do you think I have a strong feeling about why? Well, I guess I thought it was cause it's pretty
tim, because normally you someone's face, maybe before you kiss them like that, will be
The only reason. Ok, but unless you're picking something off someone's phase, I can think
many friends I had that would freak. If someone touch sir,
I things from high school in Acme and knowing you shouldn't touch your face or oars nets. Are you get and then someone?
else's, got him in your mind? It's dark dirtier! Ok, but I think it's it's acne relate because no one cares about
You touch their shoulder, their Hannah, their form, its idea, that's where there
worried about Acme? Oh well, that's that's very practical. I think it's pragmatic because they're a little oily, usually okay, so you as a touch,
You don't want to touch someone not particularly interesting, and I don't mind I'll touch them are very greasy, face the veteran means or moisture. I even had girlfriends, who, like kissing great but like you, they don't want you to touch your their face, cause they don't want to get achmat. I I understand that
but that wasn't what was happening. She was like.
Reviewing intimacy, yes, meals to intimate right. Then I got really how bad ben I was like war. You shall find a touch it I got offended. Will then, and I kept trying to touch her.
oh, and how did you feel about that hate? Hated? Ok, but I did and would happen in that,
ex minute. She just had a moment where she thought what I like, that of monica had done. It to me, no, I guess, but she didn't herself, she felt we're
like the feeling I love the hammer hand once
said it was a guy, some other boats find who, like he likes. You
We didn't like it and then I was like whoa. Okay, okay, miss you felt like you were grow. Yes, then she said. No, it's soft and beautiful image was kissing. You
yeah, I think, Acme's, agree
highbury s theory, but I think also issues very and
I think you're really only touching someone's face in a very romantic situation or silently situation like a baby member. You, my children, right, you got but not like my mom boilers cross, my moms
you do. I mean by your close with your mom you as our affectionate back my way. You just heard a lot and george you're an ear, her husband, but I knew that was
subject. That's why exactly? Why was bothering you know you do?
her really niger, my girl and she hung like she hugs you're sick.
In agreeing with family yeah. Dogmas is driven home easier. So I could see.
