00:01:12.000 fashion pursuit and when you score that rare sneaker or the bag you've been manifesting it's a rush ebay has

00:01:44.640 full-blown was it tinky winky yes you full-blown tinky winky and i was like fuck i really should

00:01:51.440 have done something and you gave me some for it rightfully i did and i felt bad about it i still

00:01:57.200 don't worry i still feel bad about it it's okay i think it was a bonding moment for us it was i

00:02:01.040 should have come dressed as lala though yeah or you're just wearing the exact same but then you

00:02:04.960 can come in i'm dressed like you and then who's flying the plane but i'm so happy to have you back

00:02:11.280 i've missed you i've missed you what have you been up to you know what's so funny is i i because

00:02:16.560 of social media i just always feel like i'm like well i saw you yesterday same same this is my second

00:02:21.120 time ever seeing you in person and i'm like well we were talking yesterday yes one-sided conversation

00:02:26.000 just you talking to me because i've been listening to your audio book which is great oh my god thank you

00:02:30.560 i'm honored here's how i know your book successful it's at every airport you know that you're right i did

00:02:36.000 every every layover i'm like there's true that's true yeah i'm in a lot of hudson's that is true

00:02:40.800 thank you it's a really good cover real like uh what do you call it show-stopping it is it is did

00:02:46.240 you have a lot of say in the cover yes i did yeah they sent me like different mock-ups because i like

00:02:51.200 was very particular about the design of it because at first i was trying to do just my middle finger

00:02:55.680 on the cover with my tattoos which i thought would be fine that would have been cool but then they said

00:03:00.000 like it could prevent it from being sold in stores because that's considered vulgar so they really

00:03:04.480 wanted my face on it but i didn't want to do like a kind of picture right so i thought oh covering

00:03:09.280 my mouth would be cool because it's like tongue-in-cheek because it's called loud blah blah blah it was

00:03:13.920 really cool and with the tattoos like if you have cool tattoos you gotta like i want tattoos so bad

00:03:19.200 but i don't feel that i have the vibe for it really i feel like if i got tattoos everyone would be like

00:03:25.760 really bitch you now you want to start now you want to start and also all of my ideas are always

00:03:31.680 stupid and bad right like i thought it would be funny because i was talking to my friend sophie

00:03:37.600 and we were like oh we need to when we're on planes we're on so many flights we need to read we need to

00:03:42.240 stop like watching netflix and just like unless it's my special prodigal daughter yeah february 24th

00:03:47.520 in case it's unless it's that unless it's that right but i'm like we gotta stop watching tv shows we

00:03:52.240 gotta remember to just like read on the plane and we had been talking about like oh we should get matching

00:03:56.800 tattoos and i was like what if we got just like read on the plane on our wrist to remind us and she

00:04:03.760 was like no she's like let's keep workshopping she's like that's not great and i'm like but it would

00:04:08.320 be so funny yeah you're like it would be such a good bit that's perfect let's get the bad ideas out

00:04:13.360 of the way yeah let's start you first and then we'll work on mine and whatever you say no and then

00:04:19.280 we'll move on yes exactly i always want matching tattoos also i'm like too scared to do one by myself

00:04:24.800 so i'm like there's like four people in my life that i'm like matching honestly i'm a fan my

00:04:30.480 siblings and i have sibling tattoos yes all three of us and and i will say too not to foster your

00:04:35.840 whimsy a little too hard but we also tattooed a bit on our on ourselves me and my siblings you did

00:04:41.040 what's a bit technically it is a bit but like my dad's very first tattoo was like a little stick and

00:04:46.240 poke in someone it says 100 someone and it's really small and it's on his big ass shoulder and it's

00:04:51.440 literally like half an inch long he hates it it's like the worst tattoo he hates it he's so embarrassed

00:04:55.760 by it and that's what you guys got yeah well we got 75 percent because my dad is 100 my mom my mom

00:05:00.880 is 50 so we got 75 someone tattooed on us i mean that's amazing right i think so that's kind of the

00:05:07.280 point of a tattoo right is you want there to be a good story behind it because people are going to ask

00:05:11.840 you about it right and so you don't want to be like oh i just liked this yeah exactly and we got it

00:05:17.360 like all my siblings like me my brother my sister we got that for our dad and then we got like a moon

00:05:22.880 for our mom oh that's so like hers is sweet my dad's is stupid like on purpose like we're like

00:05:27.600 well obviously were you like we have to get one for mom too yeah you can't just get one parent we

00:05:32.400 actually came up with hers first okay so then we had hers locked and loaded and then my sister was

00:05:36.960 like you know it would be hilarious and it was funny because we were fucked up we were drunk at the

00:05:40.720 time we came up with it so she's like you know it'd be so funny dude if we did that and i was like

00:05:45.200 that's hilarious and then when our tattoo artist like was gonna do our tattoos we did the moon first

00:05:51.920 and then we were like it let's just do it now it's tattooed on our bodies forever so i mean that is a

00:05:57.040 good one and it's small yeah it's small yeah me and my sister have it on the back of our neck and my

00:06:01.680 brother has it on his back like on his shoulder i will say though my brother wanted it big as

00:06:07.040 fuck so it isn't like 72 point font which like kind of funny i mean super bold choice for our first

00:06:14.240 tattoo but kind of funny oh it was his first one yeah i love that i love that so much the size of

00:06:19.920 pangea on his back it just says 75 someone absolutely incredible i mean yeah my sibling

00:06:26.000 bryn has a bunch of cool tattoos and then my one of my best friends ariel has a bunch of cool tattoos

00:06:30.800 so i get really intimidated i'm inspired and intimidated by theirs because i'm like well it's

00:06:36.000 not gonna come out that cool paralysis yeah and also i sort of feel like you can't just have one

00:06:41.680 you have to have like four right so i feel like i would just go in and be like can i have four

00:06:47.200 and they would be like no start with one but i'll look stupid with one i guess four if you did four

00:06:52.880 you could do like four little ones right and then you could put them all in one place or around your

00:06:56.960 body and then you'll i'm telling you when you get one you're gonna be like i love it i love it i need

00:07:02.160 more i love it says but i have such like i don't know i just have kind of like a baby face and always

00:07:07.120 have and it doesn't seem to be getting better and i just don't feel that that's gonna everyone

00:07:12.000 when i was younger they're like you'll love it later it'll don't worry it'll all pan out and i'm

00:07:15.440 like i don't think it's going to i think this is it forever but i don't feel that it um it supports

00:07:21.440 uh cool edgy tattoos my whole vibe that's true but you could get little like patchwork ones like

00:07:28.080 dainty little ones i think those are real cute i'm just scared this is my first tattoo ever this one

00:07:33.600 see that's awesome but i got it when i was like in my mid 20s so like i was older like old enough

00:07:40.080 to know because i'm also a virgo so i really wanted all of them to match or have similar vibes

00:07:45.280 yeah some people don't like that that's totally fine for me and my body i needed them to match

00:07:49.040 or there needs to be balance yes whatever that looks like to me but i waited to get this one and

00:07:53.920 i love it this is my favorite one but then once i got this i was like now i gotta get more now i have

00:07:58.480 four total but my two biggest ones are this one and the one on my back i have one down my spine

00:08:03.840 that's that goes like that all the way down to my lower back that one was is one of my favorite ones

00:08:08.960 but i never see it really unless i'm like looking in the mirror but that was so painful i almost

00:08:14.800 regretted it yeah it felt like i was being tased like it literally felt like i was going well on your

00:08:19.840 spine that does make sense there were parts where i wanted to tell them i'm like i think you got it

00:08:24.160 yeah i think you got that spot just halfway down the spine you know what i only want it on half

00:08:30.400 i only want it on half i think it's cool and when you get tribal it you need like uh shading like a

00:08:35.920 lot of gray shading so you do like the outline first then the shading then gray shading which

00:08:40.800 gives it dimension and that hurts so yeah it's just scraping like and filling in like a coloring book

00:08:45.760 and so like for the second session the first one i did like eight hours and then he was going to

00:08:50.000 finish it in the second one the next day i did the numbing cream uh-huh the second time because

00:08:55.200 i was like man fuck it i don't i don't care like i felt like i was being electrocuted and i need help

00:08:59.760 we didn't do numbing cream the first time no i why because i didn't do it for my other ones so i was

00:09:04.000 like oh it'll be fine what yeah it hurts it hurts but it's like who says no to the numbing cream if it's

00:09:08.960 a lot of people do what yeah i think that's misogynistic people have natural childbirth it's like

00:09:14.080 what are you trying to prove who gives a it's gonna hurt take what you can to help it i'm just

00:09:20.720 scared that if i get tattoos i i look so wholesome like if i get words or something i'm gonna look

00:09:25.920 like a live laugh love pillow from home goods you know where i'm like what's this i'm like it's a

00:09:31.680 little women quote of course it is of course it is you lame lame bitch you know what's funny is like

00:09:39.760 if you do have that very um i've seen on tiktok they call it a cutie patootie disease yeah i've

00:09:45.360 seen that you're a cutie patootie that sucks that doesn't that's not cool it's not you don't want

00:09:50.800 to be a cutie patootie you want to be like a bad bitch and it's fucking sucks you're i'm suffering

00:09:56.400 from cutie patootie disease oh whatever it's a beautiful thing though because it means you're

00:09:59.600 never going to age you're going to look young forever i don't even think i look that's the thing

00:10:04.240 is now i think i'm aging i was like i thought the whole point of this is that i look young forever

00:10:08.320 and yet we are deteriorating and i'm pacing yeah for some reason i'm pacing that's strange i don't

00:10:14.560 like that yeah i'm like i'm supposed to look 21 and yet you can see the wear and tear i i made a joke

00:10:21.680 once on here i think i was talking to katya but i told her like sometimes and this is true like

00:10:27.120 people think i'm younger than i am yeah so i was like sometimes they think i'm like in the clip i say

00:10:32.640 19 20 what i actually meant was like 21 22 yeah early 20s i guess is my point yeah girl you should

00:10:38.880 have seen the amount of comments that were like you do not look yeah 19 you had the amount of people

00:10:47.280 that were like you're a hundred years old you fucking crypt keeper and you're like i'm out in

00:10:52.000 the world people are telling me this i'm quoting everyone else up yeah that's so funny there is a big

00:10:57.760 difference between 19 and 22 though there is when i look at photos of me like 19 to 22 right i'm like

00:11:03.440 there is quite the difference yeah you age rapidly in those early 20s i but then when i did that 26 i'm

00:11:10.240 30. you're 30. yeah i just turned 30 last year okay gotcha so welcome thank you did you feel the shift

00:11:16.480 i did honestly i felt it at 28. i told my sister i wish i skipped 29 because it felt like when i was

00:11:23.120 telling everyone oh i'm 29 i felt like i was hanging on to my 20s it was embarrassing yeah

00:11:28.000 it was humiliating you weren't lying but you feel like you're lying yeah you're like i'm 29 you're

00:11:31.840 like you made up that number to stay in your 20s longer no one's 29 it's like the 13th floor in a

00:11:37.360 building we skip it it's bad luck to be 29. i was like i'd rather just skip also i've been like mentally

00:11:43.680 i feel like an old man forever yeah so 30 just made more sense to me and then i was like and then when

00:11:48.320 i'm in my 30s i get to say i'm in my 30s like someone asked me in like a q a they were like

00:11:54.400 what's your favorite part about being 30 or being in your 30s now and i was like saying i'm in my

00:11:58.640 30s to justify anything i say so like if i say dinner starts at 11 i can't go i'll be in my 30s yes

00:12:06.080 i'll be in my 30s at that point i will still be in my 30s right or i'm like or like i'm like i can't eat

00:12:11.120 that it's too late i'm in my 30s like i was like it just punctuates every it justifies my actions

00:12:18.000 gives me an excuse that's such a good point all of it and also i'm a baby in my 30s now i'm 30.

00:12:23.360 i know 30 feels good 31 i didn't like no 32 feels good again oh nice yeah it's been a roller coaster

00:12:29.520 i'm i'm grateful for the warnings yeah the pitfalls that are ahead of me but 30 felt so good yeah yeah

00:12:35.600 30 felt great and i did feel a shift where i was like i always felt older as well when i was younger

00:12:40.720 so now i'm like okay we finally caught up matches yes but now i'm like cool i'm gonna feel

00:12:46.880 like i'm the age i always should have been for like five years and then i'm probably gonna start

00:12:50.560 panicking about my mortality so that's a nice little that's five year window between like

00:12:56.400 the insanity of your 20s and like perimenopause i guess can't wait can't wait that's what's on my for

00:13:02.720 you page i like i joked about this with my sister because like me and all my friends are pretty much

00:13:09.440 in our 30s i think like young our youngest friends are like 28. yeah and you're like and you're hanging out

00:13:14.320 with us so to be clear you're in your 30s right so you're association right and i think honestly

00:13:19.120 some of our friends who are in their 20s still they've started saying well i'm in my 30s i'm

00:13:22.560 not doing that i'm like exactly yep condition the brain now and i think it's like uh it there is a

00:13:28.160 vast difference like what we're talking about look from 19 to 22 from 30 to like 25 there's like it feels

00:13:35.040 like a huge difference did you do the 2016 trend yes i did you did you did hard post yeah i did okay

00:13:41.920 you're younger than i held out for a while though because i was like i don't know if i like what i

00:13:45.760 look like back then let me let me look oh interesting let me browse i was gonna do it because i'm like

00:13:50.320 this is so funny and then i put it in my stories and i'm naturally brunette and i was like ha ha should

00:13:57.040 i go back to brunette and everyone said yes and i was like does it actually look better or am i just

00:14:02.960 younger because to be clear this was me 10 years ago so yeah of course you're like you'd look 22

00:14:11.760 with brown hair no i was 22 with brown hair right and then i was like we're not you guys have only

00:14:16.640 ever known me as a blonde by the way so that's kind of up yeah i was like we're not i was like

00:14:20.800 we're not posting these to maine forget it there's no way i know i follow one of my friends is emily

00:14:26.560 radikowski i'm sure you're familiar with her yeah she what if i was like who she posted a 2016 thing and i

00:14:32.640 go what the fuck yeah what's her problem yeah yeah you look the same bitch yeah get out of get

00:14:46.800 i thought it was more to like see like the trends and like how bad like your iphone camera was right

00:14:54.800 yeah that's what it should have been yeah no hers no stunning drop dead gorgeous yeah no it's supposed

00:14:59.600 to be like look how stupid my outfit was yeah it's like look at this dog filter i used exactly

00:15:04.080 all my pictures i literally told them like all my pictures are blown out by filters like yep

00:15:08.640 snapchat filters regular instagram filters just ruined yeah back when we were like anyone can

00:15:13.200 be a photographer now with the help of filters they look so bad with sepia tone yeah no for real it was

00:15:19.840 like it was i think fun to post about it but also too hard awakening first yeah for the way some

00:15:27.680 people were talking to me i was like all right yeah relax a little bit i was still bad then and

00:15:33.120 i'm so bad now okay but you could tell i think i was a big choker girl back in 2016. me too i lived

00:15:38.960 and died by the choker yeah and then one of the pictures i used was me wearing a choker in the pool

00:15:43.920 which like should you be wearing a choice no i mean i i was so excited when the chokers came back

00:15:51.600 and they weren't back for that long no really it was just a moment right and i still want to wear one

00:15:58.000 and it's up that we can't i know it's just not the same anymore yeah i feel like if i wear a choker

00:16:02.800 online everyone's gonna be like what are you okay like that will age me like that's what's hard about

00:16:08.800 getting dressed in your 30s is you're like right is this the right balance of i know a lot of people

00:16:15.120 talk about this about like i'm 30 what jeans do i wear now right right because you just don't want

00:16:19.680 to look like you're trying to look too young but also do you you don't want to age yourself right you

00:16:24.080 just like want to look exactly your age oh that's so the first and only time in your life and i can't

00:16:30.320 figure it out no that's real as fuck because i've told sometimes when i've worn outfits i'll like show

00:18:40.080 blindness for a while i'll say it sure yeah i did and when i started doing this i still had it because

00:18:46.240 i loved lash extensions like i loved getting them put on but then they get kind of crazy right right

00:18:51.600 after a while that you could just see like you can even look at my videos don't go do that but if

00:18:56.400 you do look like my lashes get bigger and bigger and bigger over time and then all of a sudden they're

00:19:00.240 all gone because i started glamming all the time to the point where like they weren't making any

00:19:05.520 sense to get them anymore because every time i glammed like all the makeup all the liner and he

00:19:10.720 would still put lashes on me sometimes it just was ripping them all out like oh yeah it was just a

00:19:14.880 waste of money is this your real hair all this hair no i have extensions you do yeah if you can

00:19:19.680 believe it they look really good thank you yeah i know they're real blended i and don't go back and

00:19:25.120 look but i i have i used to be blonde too when i first started uh-huh uh making videos and stuff

00:19:30.400 so sometimes when i look at old things i'm blonde and have crazy lashes it looks nothing you're like

00:19:35.360 who is that yeah i was like who is this woman i did something recently too where i can't say what it

00:19:40.880 is yet but it's like a project thing i'm working on but everyone's like she's pregnant i know i can

00:19:45.680 tell she said it she said she's working on a project by the big t-shirt and uh they went back to look

00:19:50.960 they were just looking for like reaction pictures of me uh-huh and so i when they sent me always are

00:19:56.560 so mean they're bad there's so mean reaction what is that it's like when they try to get a photo of

00:20:01.360 you on stage doing stand-up and it's always just like yeah like come on me laughing for real in photo

00:20:08.480 don't do that don't do that yeah i got a fake like catalog laugh in order for it to photograph well

00:20:14.480 because my real laugh does not procure a good result yeah but i remember they sent me the deck of like

00:20:20.480 all the reaction pics and they were like oh just want to get your thoughts on them and i told my

00:20:24.560 team i said yeah get rid of all of them they're hideous and ugly and it's because they went back

00:20:28.240 like three years like looking at my old videos and like my lashes look insane i'm blonde in a lot of

00:20:34.000 them my hair is like insane and some of them i was like hey i look like so no and you're

00:20:40.160 like i put out so much content i was like hey can you look in 2025 or does it have to be 2022

00:20:46.000 why did they look so early i have no clue and they went and redid it and they sent it back to

00:20:50.720 me and i was like that looks way better perfect also you can go on my instagram you don't have to

00:20:54.880 yeah we don't have you don't have to catch capture me in motion yeah you could go on instagram get a

00:20:59.280 static photo yeah it's okay i cut my hair like six months ago and i love it by the way thank you so

00:21:05.600 much do you like the bob i i do like it i think now i'm kind of like maybe we grow it out a little i'm

00:21:10.400 not really sure because i just hit a point where i felt like weird having long hair i think it was

00:21:16.640 the age thing i was like you're right am i do is everyone like what are you trying the ponytail like

00:21:23.760 i don't know i just felt it got like it got like overstimulating it just started to feel crazy

00:21:30.080 and now like i do miss throwing it in a ponytail now it's long enough where i can kind of like throw

00:21:35.040 it back still yeah um but yeah it was so weird it was just like one day i woke up and i was like

00:21:40.960 who who is that and my hair had always been always been like that yeah it hadn't been short since i

00:21:47.200 was in like seventh grade but i was just like it's not me that's not her yeah no that's actually so real

00:21:53.920 because my my sister cut her hair into a bob too and it unlocked something it does she was like and she

00:21:58.720 was 31 32 when you cut it 31 well in the time you get back it's just no she said that too because

00:22:07.520 her hair is curly like naturally and so i remember because i've been getting extensions for like a

00:22:12.080 couple years but i used to get really even longer ones like i'm a real go big or go home girl so like

00:22:17.600 i'll go all the way and then work my way back like that's typically how you did it with lashes now i did

00:22:22.720 it with hair all the way and then i worked my way back and then she she was going through a breakup so

00:22:27.680 she was like i think i'm gonna get extensions and i was like you're gonna hate them dude because

00:22:31.360 she like this is a lot of upkeep yeah it is a lot like it's a lot of upkeeping and she was like

00:22:36.160 no it'll be fine and then she got like long extensions put in and she was like i

00:22:40.240 fucking hate them and then she went the three months got them taken out and then cut her hair

00:22:44.560 into a ball and then when she cut it in the bob she's like this is perfect yeah there's something

00:22:49.840 there's still something inside me that like wants hair down to my waist right and i think it's i think

00:22:54.880 there's something inside me is like miley cyrus at her peak yeah when i was like in middle school

00:22:59.680 or whatever like yeah there's just something that's her extensions insane by the way insane

00:23:05.280 she had way too much hair on her head it was but they were so good they were so good and it was like

00:23:10.400 that honey blonde like yes reddish color too oh my god it's so and she had textured ones too so they

00:23:16.720 looked even better along yeah i never feel like more of a millennial than when someone brings up like

00:23:21.360 miley cyrus demi lovato like any of that like class of disney and i don't even think i'm like

00:23:27.520 that i'm like a normal millennia where i'm like yeah i liked them that was they were great and then

00:23:33.200 if someone's like well miley cyrus isn't a good singer i'm like how dare you you know you don't

00:23:38.000 put your clothes back on we're gonna talk about it and you know it was a man yeah of course i knew it was

00:23:42.800 a man yeah of course i did because a woman would never exactly but yeah i get very like that's my friend

00:23:47.600 like you don't talk about my friend she went through a lot like and that's true holy that's

00:23:55.680 so true i know i loved them too when i was younger when they used to be on youtube oh my god did you

00:24:00.560 know that when they were on youtube when they when the girls were fighting on youtube yes that one video

00:24:05.840 that was like was it selena and demi and like miley and they were like and miley and her 50 000 year old

00:24:11.600 friend obviously because they were all 14 and her friend was 22 or something and then they made a video

00:24:16.320 copying them yes loved it a moment i wish they could beef like that still i know nobody's really

00:24:23.040 like fighting anymore publicly not anymore we'll see i it's funny because like i was just telling

00:24:28.560 my friend the other day i was like that's what the internet used to be yeah used to be nothing but

00:24:32.320 funnies yeah giggles now it's horrifying yeah now and i'm on there it's terrible it's so bad we can start

00:24:39.840 a fight after this oh perfect maybe when this comes out we'll start fake beef we'll start fake beef

00:24:44.560 and then we'll we'll promote your special thank you which perfect segue perfect segue about the

00:24:50.160 special miss i have 20 000 specials tell me about the newest one it's only four it's a beautiful

00:24:55.760 thing though i'm so happy for you thank you so much i feel when you see someone promoting something

00:25:00.800 and you're like oh i want to watch that and then it's not out yet are you furious because that's how

00:25:05.200 i feel i'm always like what the why would you edge me like that yeah they put out a bridgerton trailer

00:25:09.520 like six months i'm like who the fuck is this for are you what are you doing i do like bridgerton

00:25:14.960 okay wait tell me tell me about your special first and then i'm just here to promote bridgerton

00:25:19.040 perfect i don't like i do have a special but it's like who cares um no if you run out of bridgerton i

00:25:25.600 do have a special yeah uh it's called prodigal daughter and it's uh it's the hours doing on the

00:25:32.240 save me tour and uh yeah it's like it's a lot of it's really it's really only like three subjects

00:25:41.440 it's religious trauma death and i'm gay now perfect that's kind of the outline oh my god oh my dream

00:25:49.280 date cute love that amazing truly my dream date is ending up gay yeah and okay um but yeah it's like

00:25:58.480 i would say like half the special warning is about like religious trauma and like i mean i think it's

00:26:05.280 i could not have done this hour any sooner than i did because like my 20s i've spent like a decade

00:26:11.760 untangling uh myself from christianity and like all the damage that it did yeah and then i got to like a

00:26:20.240 better place with it and i've like you know i have extended family that are nice christians and uh more

00:26:26.400 progressive christians and i have friends who have yeah exactly so for a long time though for a long

00:26:32.800 time i was very like if you're a christian you're a bad person because like that which is fair which

00:26:38.960 is fair look if you have the trauma it's fair yeah if you have the trauma and i think a lot of people

00:26:42.640 feel that way and then i like worked through a lot of that and i think this hour is the result of all

00:26:48.160 that work because i hopefully it it came out very like i think balanced and like more of a nuanced

00:26:57.040 take and it's like i i am poking fun at uh growing up christian and and the church but it's

00:27:03.760 it's not as malicious as my like younger bits about it were um and then yeah it's like me talking about

00:27:10.480 death and preparing for that and i think that's really interesting and i also think that's very

00:27:16.560 indicative of your ability to grow as a comic too like you've been able to like look back

00:27:23.040 and see your other stuff and be like there's probably something funnier in there that's less

00:27:27.520 antagonistic and driving from a different place yeah where i can be a little bit more understanding

00:27:32.640 but also still make jokes and talk about what it is the very real things i experience yeah well and

00:27:38.160 when you're like more of a personal comic like i am yeah you you change your mind about stuff right

00:27:43.920 so like there's younger versions of me that did all these jokes that i still think are funny yeah but

00:27:49.600 i don't feel that way anymore right you know and i know where it comes from now and i know why i was

00:27:54.000 mad about that or you know why that affected me so much and so and it's it's not just the religious

00:28:00.320 stuff it's also like dating and yeah uh which is all so closely intertwined yes into religion when

00:28:06.320 you're raised religious it really is and look there's some things that i'm like

00:28:12.320 oh that's still definitely the result of being raised in like abstinence only culture it's like

00:28:18.000 look i'm not gonna be able to sleep with you right away i would like to yeah but it's just gonna take

00:28:23.200 me a little longer and i've done as much work as i can right on that part of me but yeah it's you know

00:28:29.760 i need to like know you pretty well and it is what it is right and that's and that is something that

00:28:34.880 you unpack with time yeah like the more you are able to sit with it and process it yeah but you're

00:28:40.240 like i started in a place of you have to marry me to have sex with me pretty good now that maybe it

00:28:46.480 takes six to eight weeks progress progress look at us yeah oh well i i'm curious like when you

00:28:51.440 were on the save me tour did you feel yourself developing it even more so did you kind of stick

00:28:56.880 to what you already planned like going into it oh i mean that's what i that's what i love so much

00:29:01.520 about stand-up is it's like never done i mean i added lines the night of the special like i was

00:29:08.080 editing it up until the very last second and then you get into the edit room after it's filmed and

00:29:13.680 then you're still cutting stuff so that's what's so fun about touring is i mean i'm so spoiled as a

00:29:21.600 comedian because i can do whatever i want up there like there are nights i get up on stage and i'm like

00:29:26.320 there are 2 000 people here and i can do whatever i want i can say whatever the i want that's you

00:29:32.000 guys have to do what i say i have no idea this is crazy like i was really sick one night on stage and

00:29:38.240 i just talked about it for like eight minutes and i was like you got like you i have a cold i have a

00:29:44.320 cold and you're here you've got to hear about it and you got to hear about it uh but yeah i mean

00:29:48.720 you're just always constantly like adjusting and reworking and adding jokes that you forgot you used

00:29:56.960 to do and cutting jokes that don't work in the hour and like sometimes you'll have a joke you really

00:30:01.680 like but it doesn't fit like thematically in this hour so then you might save it or you might just cut

00:30:08.000 it all together and then it goes nowhere but it was like fun to do for a year on the road it's really

00:30:12.160 interesting i mean by the way are you still dabbling in stand-up at all because no and i was going to tell

00:30:17.920 you that i was actually gonna because i'm not even kidding that conversation sits with me a lot

00:30:22.240 when i told you about that and then you were like don't do that well i was like you're so yeah you're

00:30:27.760 so successful yeah you're like you skipped the line you don't need to yeah i'll do that i'm not

00:30:31.840 kidding that sits with me i i've thought about it i've talked about it in meetings with my team

00:30:35.440 i'm like well taylor thompson a very established and successful stand-up comedian told me not to do

00:30:39.200 that well you should if you want to well that's the thing is i didn't i was on the fence and i think you

00:30:43.280 could tell yeah that's why you said that to me because if it's not a hell yes it's probably a no

00:30:48.480 because it's that hard like that's like it is that hard but i was going to bring that up to you

00:30:52.720 because when i was still kind of on the fence like when i talked to you about it yeah i wasn't like my

00:30:58.000 mind wasn't super made up but i was kind of like i mean i did it once and i didn't love but also like

00:31:03.840 it was my very first time so like if i keep going i'll probably maybe i'll like it more like that's kind

00:31:08.160 of what i was thinking and then i got hired um basically i was sought out by a brand i'll tell you who

00:31:14.320 it was after to do stand-up but like they wanted me to be like the face of something like a like a

00:31:20.960 new thing they were trying to make and i think they were trying to mirror netflix as a joke right

00:31:24.560 oh you were trying to like mirror that but with women and and the first thing i said was i'm not

00:31:30.240 a stand-up so if this is about stand-up i wouldn't pick me because i think you should pick established

00:31:36.160 stand-up comedians or people at least pursuing that because i'm not like it and it feels it you know me

00:31:41.040 you know me like it feels disingenuous right to like take that gig plus they were gonna put other

00:31:47.200 people on the lineup so i was like well if you're with other stand-ups like i don't want to be above

00:31:51.280 them on on a marquee like that right that's disrespectful to them and it's also stupid

00:31:55.440 because i am not a stand-up and they were like it's not gonna be that it's gonna be like stand-up

00:32:00.480 but yes but also like live podcasts and also just like like this and i was like okay so when they pitched

00:32:06.080 it to me that way i was like okay sure then i signed the deal and i'm in the deal and part of

00:32:11.920 the deal is doing two shows and they wanted me to do 20 minutes mind you i've only ever done the five

00:32:16.880 yeah so i was like oh i gotta work up and normally you go 5 10 15 20 but okay sure i'll jump to 20

00:32:22.720 like because i was like i could bullshit for 20 but like i didn't want to bullshit and i didn't

00:32:26.720 want to just do crowd work i wanted to like actually write jokes yeah so then they tell me the 20

00:32:32.080 i'm like okay that's fine and they're gonna put like five other people in the lineup all of them

00:32:36.960 when the lineups came out stand-ups all of them some of them huge ones and i'll tell you after

00:32:41.520 like and i was like and when i got those i was like why would you fucking do that like i was pissed

00:32:46.560 off because i was like i told you not to do that to me like and it's and then it just makes me look

00:32:51.520 like a dick like i look like a dickhead influencer that cut the line like that like well and i really

00:32:56.560 i it's so nice to hear someone like respect the art form of stand-up because sometimes i'm like

00:33:02.800 does does everyone think this is stupid like there's like do people think like this is just

00:33:09.280 silly like it's hard to be good at it hello i know and i know that because i'm friends with a lot of

00:33:14.880 stand-ups right and i've tried it one singular time and i was like that is hard and i only did five minutes

00:33:21.040 i literally remember after i got off i was like how the fuck do people memorize an hour right how

00:33:26.320 on earth do you do an hour i was like i couldn't believe it i was like and none of its crowd work

00:33:30.400 by the way yeah very slowly yeah and if you do do it sometimes it's just spur of the moment it's not

00:33:35.440 even planned in the hour yeah so i was like and those first 20 minutes are like the hardest to get

00:33:40.720 like i just finished a special so i have like no new jokes i if you asked me to do 20 right now i

00:33:47.440 would be like i can't do that that's literally what caleb told me he was like your because your

00:33:51.120 first 20 it dictates the pace of the rest of it yeah right so like i was like okay and the success

00:33:56.240 of it also because you could lose them in the first 20. yeah so i was already annoyed about that

00:34:00.640 then when i saw the other stand-ups i was like why would you do that some of them i i love and i

00:34:04.720 adore their comedy i was like why would you do that and then i was pissed off but there's

00:34:08.880 nothing i can do i'm already in it yeah so then i did the first show which was in new york

00:34:13.840 so i did the 20 and so because of the brand it was with this was another reason i was annoyed

00:34:18.640 because in a lot of the marketing it was centered around me making fun of men which like yeah like

00:34:24.240 can i do that am i good at it yes is that the only thing i can do no but i knew that's what they

00:34:30.000 wanted because that's how they marketed me and everything everything was themed around me being

00:34:35.200 a dick to men like making fun of them blah blah blah which i think are cheap and easy jokes but

00:34:40.080 fine right so for this the set i wrote for the 20 was centered on that like i was like using that

00:34:45.760 as my my focal point because that's what you hired me it's a corporate gig right exactly i was like

00:34:50.800 this is and it was like sponsored and all of that so i was like this is what i'm going to focus on this

00:34:54.400 is what they want to see clearly right because they asked they asked me to do all this other

00:34:57.840 involving that theme and so then i did the 20. it did really well honestly i killed like i did a good job

00:35:04.080 no that was the move and i did a little bit of and i was like telling caleb about it too and i was like i also

00:35:08.560 feel comfortable there like i can i can pivot there really easily because that's what i've been

00:35:12.480 joking about so it's easy but it's still annoying to me but i'm gonna do it so i did it i killed i

00:35:17.600 did a little bit of crowd work too that did well also and then it was kind of it and then after that

00:35:22.960 they were like wow that was incredible wow that was amazing oh my god that was so amazing blah blah

00:35:28.640 then a couple weeks pass and then i go back home because i was in new york and i was supposed to do

00:35:32.320 another show in la and so that was my last one and then they had a meeting with my team and they

00:35:38.320 told my team um we had some notes about the set what i want to know what brand it was so bad

00:35:47.520 i don't even know if you know who they are really but like i'll tell you obviously after so they said

00:35:52.480 we have notes on the set um which is insane to tell me at all ever and then they said um we feel like

00:35:59.280 she was too mean to men and we would like for the next set to be more uplifting what and encouraging

00:36:07.440 to women i said i'm not tony robbins so i don't know what the fuck you're talking about are you

00:36:12.400 guys did you guys mean to hire mel robbins did you guys mean to get her the fuck are you talking

00:36:16.320 about you come out with a wireless mic yeah i was like you know what's great about the boys i was

00:36:20.640 like put your hands together rub them together we're gonna create the life we've always wanted

00:36:24.400 that's what the fuck they wanted me to do up there and i was like i cannot believe i was shaking with

00:36:29.760 rage when my my team called me after that's insane yeah and they were like more uplifting to women

00:36:34.720 they want me to be more nicer to men yeah and they said it nice why don't i just lead everyone in

00:36:39.440 making vision boards yeah why don't we how about not that i'm hating on vision boards i did make a

00:36:44.160 vision board this year and it's working yeah okay period beginning of february it's already working

00:36:49.360 i know they want me to go up there and open the room in prayer oh can i open us up in prayer

00:36:52.880 do you guys mind hey would be easier than doing 20 minutes of stand-up hello i was like i don't know

00:36:58.560 i know what christian comedians make yeah so if i really wanted to pivot and make a bag i would go

00:37:02.480 that way yep and they literally were like yeah no she it was just like a little too negative a stand-up

00:37:09.600 set too negative yeah i killed what i don't know a lot of like comedians i would describe as

00:37:16.560 positive yeah uplifting yeah like what did you even pull the room like they were like i wasn't feeling

00:37:21.520 very inspired when i know that's one guy one guy high up right you're right which depending based

00:37:28.640 on who you told me it is i'm very confused yeah it's it's actually yours you're actually dead on

00:37:33.120 because my team was pissed right i wasn't even in the conversation at this time so and you shouldn't

00:37:37.840 have to be yeah exactly and my team was mad and they said is this coming from someone or is this

00:37:43.200 something you guys just came up with and then they said there was an older gentleman there we go uh in

00:37:48.800 charge he was the higher up and it always is yeah um that was with the brand that sponsored it

00:37:54.080 right and he was in the audience which i knew because there was one old guy sitting in the center

00:38:00.560 like arms crossed the whole time going like just annoyed yeah the whole set so i knew exactly who it

00:38:05.440 was i could see him the whole night and they said that he complained and like since he was uh his brand

00:38:11.120 was sponsoring the second one he demanded that i change my set and make it better because it was too

00:38:17.600 antagonistic and up to men which i was like i want to know what he thought about all the other

00:38:21.600 comedians right because another comedian that night said a slur on stage so you know um i would say

00:38:27.280 we cut to him standing ovation he's like so excited he's like finally need more of that need more of

00:38:32.880 that netflix doesn't even give me notes on my specials hello yeah no that's crazy that's so wow

00:38:39.200 interesting and that's not just like a me brag thing i think that like i'm saying they let comedians

00:38:43.360 like do their thing clearly i've seen terrible ones i've seen terrible uh like yeah i can think of

00:38:47.760 one in particular i saw on netflix which one was really bad oh okay i was gonna say someone else

00:38:53.760 yeah yeah i know who you're talking yeah are you talking about no no who are you talking well i'm

00:38:59.200 talking about oh yes yes yes bad he's a real comic all around yeah yeah yeah yeah he's about that

00:39:05.040 generally speaking yeah but i was i was so put off by that shit i was like yeah i don't know if that's for

00:39:11.360 me after all like and then as i like you know that was like last year i would say last spring

00:39:18.080 so like up until now i've done a few more live performances like just with my sister when we do

00:39:22.720 our podcast live which is great and that's just my vibe i was like with the stand-up i was like i

00:39:27.440 think that was another sign this is not for me like yeah this is not something i'm meant to do the way

00:39:31.840 that you talk to your team about doing stand-up is like how i talk to my team about doing a podcast

00:39:37.120 really yes where i'm like i just i don't know and they honestly they talk to me the same way where

00:39:43.840 they're like do you really have time to do that right well and i'm like actually you're right and

00:39:49.280 i feel the same way where i'm like i mean we were talking about it when i came in i'm like your

00:39:53.120 lighting's incredible your setup's incredible your clips look great clips are great and it's like

00:39:58.000 it would have to be like a whole production like this for real to feel good about it but there are

00:40:02.720 people who do podcasts that are look like and are not good and it's like well anyone can do that

00:40:08.400 it's like no to do it right it's like a lot of work in production that's true and that's why and

00:40:14.160 the same thing on on your side with stand-up it's the same thing yeah and that's why when i've told

00:40:18.320 my stand-up friends of that story they've been like um what you said earlier which was like i'm

00:40:24.240 really glad that you like have the respect for the craft because it does feel like a joke sometimes

00:40:30.000 and when you were saying that earlier it's like it's because people i think it's like

00:40:33.840 the access to seeing it online all the time makes people think they can do it like they're like yes

00:40:39.040 oh if i just had the time i could be taylor tomlinson if i just i'm not saying that's not true

00:40:45.040 by the way if you had 16 years yeah you could be to spare yeah yeah that's 16 years lying around

00:40:53.280 that's literally what i'm saying well and it's also like you could have all the time that doesn't

00:40:58.800 mean you can do it yes and it's the same thing with podcasting too i think podcasting is the new

00:41:03.280 thing right like stand-up was that thing for a long time and then because of tick tock and everything

00:41:07.600 now i think now podcasts are the new thing where they're like all i need is the mic and the time

00:41:14.400 that's all i need which i always tell people when they ask me about podcasts i'm always telling them

00:41:19.280 like i mean before you worry about buying anything set up your phone to look at you and record

00:41:26.160 yourself talking by yourself for 40 minutes hard just see if you can do it yeah like because

00:41:30.640 most often times like even if the show or the podcast is kind of like this one where it's like

00:41:35.600 um interview based or it's like guest driven um even then sometimes you're gonna have guests

00:41:41.680 that don't want to fucking talk or don't know how to so you have to like fill the space like you have

00:41:46.720 to be able to fill it and carry it well that's why i was so impressed with you the first time i did

00:41:50.640 your podcast is i was coming from set i was really tired yeah and i left and i was like

00:41:55.040 drew's an incredible podcaster and interviewer and carried that because i was very sleepy and i

00:42:02.080 hadn't met you and i thought you killed i don't know what you're talking about i was just like

00:42:05.440 i felt like the whole time i was just asking you questions like about like not in a funny way just

00:42:10.160 like how did you meet your fiance well to be fair that was our first time meeting it was our first time

00:42:14.480 so that was like to be fair it is kind of like a first date where like you're like well what's your

00:42:18.000 favorite color like you kind of have to go over the early steps that's why sometimes when people

00:42:22.000 watch my show and they've been long-time fans of my show sometimes they'll say like

00:42:25.760 sometimes drew repeats herself i'm like well no shit bitch i every time i meet someone you try

00:42:30.320 talking by yourself for 52 weeks a year girl truly and also i forget yeah and you probably did too and

00:42:37.280 fuck off but also thank you for listening so intently yes love you but love you and thank you so much for

00:42:41.520 your support but like yeah i mean all the research you have to do as well on people like

00:42:47.280 it's just did you see the clip of uh charlie xcx on smartless no where i don't remember which guy

00:42:55.680 it was but one of them was asking her if she wanted kids and she was like i don't think so

00:43:02.960 and one of them goes well when you meet the right person you might want kids and she goes well i'm

00:43:09.520 married she's like i'm married so hopefully 20 seconds of silence just oh like don't know that

00:43:17.920 charlie xcx is married like girl crazy i know especially since her wedding was like all over

00:43:24.080 the place like everybody was seeing pictures of it yeah even from afar yeah dumois was on the phone

00:43:30.720 constantly that day they were posting thousands of pictures of her wedding and it does make you feel

00:43:35.040 better like doing press because sometimes you do press and you can tell people do not care you

00:43:41.360 don't know who you are what you've done right couldn't care less it's and whatever it's another

00:43:46.720 day at work for them and i get it but when you see that happen even to like one of the biggest stars in

00:43:51.760 the whole world you're like okay so it happens to everyone okay so everyone okay all right got it

00:43:56.400 perfect that doesn't make yeah a little bit that does make me feel a little bit yeah yeah that is

00:44:00.160 because i that's how i felt about the the girl saying i was pregnant because um in my book i

00:44:05.440 explicitly talk about not wanting children and why so i'm like you should read my book you should

00:44:11.600 familiarize yourself a little bit more with me i will say because i like you said i'm writing my book

00:44:17.120 right now and it's hard and uh i i the only thing that's helped me get through it is i go most

00:44:26.960 people aren't gonna read this it's long don't say that there but you know there's a little bit

00:44:33.440 it's hey it's a long commitment it is to read a book it is and so i go even if it's bad most people

00:44:40.000 aren't gonna know it's bad like anyone has can watch a stand-up special for an hour and be like

00:44:44.480 this sucks but a whole book right i mean so that's really helped me a lot actually it's just going it

00:44:53.040 can be bad it's okay don't do that i'm sure it's gonna be wonderful and amazing we'll see

00:44:58.720 and writing how do you find the right book writing process how are you finding you know what's funny

00:45:02.160 is i actually really enjoy it it's nice and that's making me nervous because i'm like you might have

00:45:07.760 to get into it no i just am like you're enjoying it too much which means this is probably garbage

00:45:13.680 what are you talking about look i don't know i can turn anything into a negative i was like i wanted

00:45:18.880 to be like a young adult novelist before i did stand-up when i was like 14 you know so i'm kind

00:45:25.440 of like oh like i actually do like this because i wasn't ever sure i got into stand-up and i was like

00:45:32.000 this is my whole thing forever and so to finally be in a place where i'm like writing a book and kind of

00:45:39.200 living the life that my 14 year old self wanted to live right it was nice to be like oh i wake up

00:45:44.640 every day and i have a routine and i have a word count to hit right i really enjoy like i feel

00:45:51.920 very fulfilled by the end of the day after writing alone you're like in my house you're literally in

00:45:57.840 my head bitch yeah because when i wrote my book it was the same thing yeah like i was like i'm loving

00:46:04.080 this low-key i'm loving this but like we'll see but that because i um was writing my own book i have

00:46:11.280 a photographic memory not a flex just a fact that is a flex yeah i was like i have a photographic

00:46:16.240 memory so i can read very fast and i remember almost everything i read i've ever read ever which

00:46:21.040 is why i'm sick i'm like filled with with facts about things that i shouldn't really know like my

00:46:26.480 sister once was like you know so many things but you never fucking read and i was like okay like and

00:46:32.880 she means like historically accurate thing i just remember a lot of things i've ever whatever so things

00:46:38.480 imprint in my brain really so when i was writing my own book i stopped reading um non-fiction like

00:46:44.560 i stopped reading any sort of feminist theory any sort of like self-help empowerment anything like

00:46:50.000 that i stopped reading all of it as i was writing because i didn't want anything to like imprint in

00:46:54.320 my brain and then i write it and then i'm like i came up with that of course but then really it's just

00:46:59.440 something i remembered from somewhere even some of the quotes like like things that i've said many

00:47:04.640 times in interviews that i wrote into my book i literally googled them to make sure nobody else

00:47:09.120 said them because i was like let me just make sure okay cool i know i do that with jokes too

00:47:13.440 yeah or you'll write certain jokes and you're like is that a certain person's like i went i've gone to

00:47:18.720 certain people and been like did you write this already and they're like no and i'm like okay well

00:47:22.640 it seems like something you would have talked about exactly yeah it's so scary i was a little worried and

00:47:27.520 i before i wrote i wrote my own book i like had read a lot of self-help empowerment stuff so i was like

00:47:34.320 just in case i'm gonna cut myself off no reading so i didn't read anything like that so i i read

00:47:39.280 fiction instead uh-huh which i loved because i haven't read fiction since i was like a teenager

00:47:45.040 in high school so i was like oh my god i should read more fiction books so i started reading more

00:47:49.280 fiction that's how i get it got into like romanticy books that's when you started reading acatar yes yeah

00:47:54.000 because that was me like venturing into that world of adult fiction and then i was like after i

00:47:59.680 finished my book and it went well thank god for you um then i told my publisher when they're like

00:48:04.720 let's do another book and i was like i'm only 30 so i have no more advice to give right i got nothing

00:48:10.240 else on me bitch like and i told them what do you guys think about fiction because i've read so many

00:48:15.680 so that's my next book i fucking love that yeah well and that's kind of how i feel exactly

00:48:21.680 about this i'm like i know everyone just wants me to write the comedian memoir essays book right and

00:48:28.880 i can do that and i will yeah and then i want to write the young adult fantasy novel let's do it

00:48:34.800 and it's like once they know i can finish a book maybe they'll be more open to other ideas is that

00:48:39.600 what you found yeah once you wrote a bestseller they were like yes i was like and i didn't even

00:48:43.760 know really at the time that i wanted like you were saying i like i'm enjoying myself but i didn't

00:48:48.160 know like that's what i really wanted to write until i started writing so then once i wrote my

00:48:52.320 first one like because my first book obviously it's about me which like yeah it was awesome

00:48:57.280 this one i'm like having a blast that's every meeting i get on i'm like oh my god i love this

00:49:03.200 project did you when they were like you have to be on the cover of your book were you like

00:49:09.120 yeah yeah because i was is that how you feel too yeah yeah i said to my editor i was like well i

00:49:13.520 don't she goes you should start thinking about the cover and i said well yeah i have some i go

00:49:17.760 but it doesn't have to be me right and she goes are you kidding me that's literally what i said

00:49:21.520 i said it doesn't have to be a picture of me right and they were like no are you dumb yeah they were

00:49:25.280 like you're an idiot hey girl thought i was kidding i was like no i thought it was actually

00:49:30.080 pretty cool and humble i thought you'd be like i thought you'd be like thank you so much you know

00:49:34.480 most people insist on being on they're like you know like you're not like other authors yeah that's

00:49:40.000 i was being a pick me me too no i did the same thing i said the same

00:49:44.480 shit and i was like i just feel like it's corny i feel like it's super corny i know i felt like and

00:49:48.400 then like they one of the things we made peace with was me covering my face that was one of them

00:49:53.600 because they will tell you this it sells books when you're on the cover because i know most people can't

00:49:58.800 even read there's a media literacy crisis going on right now so they'll be like i know her and the

00:50:04.080 people who don't even necessarily know your name will be like i've seen them exactly and it's enough to

00:50:08.720 to make them just pick it up exactly yeah so like i i literally shot test covers like with my

00:50:14.800 hair make artists because the one that's actually on the cover of my book i shot in my house in my

00:50:18.480 kitchen really yeah my my cousin who does my hair and makeup he took the pictures of me like

00:50:23.200 blamed me and then took the pictures of me so like we shot those pictures but we did test ones before

00:50:29.360 because i was trying to do just my middle finger or something like that i was trying to meet in the

00:50:32.960 middle and i did mock-ups like you're like once they see this oh girl canva pro i was like oh i

00:50:38.560 get canva pro involved don't even get me started brin knows i have been on camera pro like crazy for

00:50:45.840 the special for the book i'm like i just threw this together is this anything yeah how about this how

00:50:51.440 about this direction and they're like we're gonna get some professional but i'm like i'm like when i'm

00:50:55.040 like pitching it to them and then they're not listening they're like i'm like let me get on canva i'm

00:51:00.160 gonna make something on canva i'm gonna make something i'm gonna text it to you and you tell

00:51:03.280 me i looked at one of the earliest uh like mock-ups i did for the special and i was like i was so proud

00:51:10.080 of this looked at it literally the disneyland font literally the disneyland font no one's ever used

00:51:17.040 this yeah i'm like why is this so good it was called like pirate something and i'm such a

00:51:22.480 fucking basic ass bisexual i'm like the pirate one the pirate one is good done no for real i i did the

00:51:30.240 same thing i i did the mock-up and everything and they were like um did they do the thing where they

00:51:36.160 go it's helpful to know what you like yeah they're like this is good like this is good for us it's

00:51:40.160 helpful to know what you gravitate yeah so we know where where to go thank you so much yeah thank you for

00:51:44.560 your i appreciate your contributions and i was like perfect perfect you're like so we'll just i feel like

00:51:49.680 it's done you're like so print it and i was like let's get to print i know i told them the same

00:51:56.000 thing about like because of me on the cover i was also cringing about that too and i was like i just

00:52:01.520 don't want to be like on the cover yeah you don't want one of these yeah exactly i was like and i don't

00:52:06.640 want one where i look like pensive like you know that with authors they always do this one like head

00:52:10.960 in the hand well you know they would have had you do like hands on the hips girl wide stance for

00:52:17.600 real where they're like like boss yeah exactly oh my god i hate it when you're in a photo shoot

00:52:22.880 and they go do like confident what like like i'm exactly like i'm the boss like i'm you know like

00:52:30.320 and it's always a male photographer yeah and i'm in charge and like maybe do to the side a little bit

00:52:36.320 and then put your hands on your hips kind of like attitude give me let's do an attitude one right when

00:52:42.080 they and they tell me to cross my arms i was like that's why like my author photo is like my full

00:52:47.360 face and my arms crossed to the side like they wanted but i'll head on you're a bouncer no

00:52:52.400 literally and when i decide you're kind of like oh smart girl i might solve a crime later yeah you

00:52:58.400 never know you never know and even when i took it we were laughing because it looks like adriana's

00:53:02.480 insurance have you seen those billboards all around la that's literally what i look like in

00:53:06.160 it adriana's insurance i'm like and then i was like yes you put that on the inside cover

00:53:10.000 bitch so nobody has to look at it it's humiliating every time you see it i'm like and literally

00:53:14.320 we joke about it all the time they're like i look like i'm gonna fight for you that's what

00:53:18.080 my like my author photos look like and it's so tough too because you're like i'm on the cover

00:53:22.240 already yeah do i need an author photo too yeah that's what i told them i was like well if i'm

00:53:26.560 on the cover they don't need an author photo i'm like they're like well you're you're covering your

00:53:29.680 face everyone's gonna be like where's her mouth well i'm like what am i dead mouth like what the

00:53:33.680 fuck nobody thinks i'm marshmallow like it's fine you can tell it's me and my name is on there what

00:53:38.320 the fuck like nobody looks like me it's okay so we met in somewhat in the middle yeah but i get

00:53:44.160 you it's big cringe big it looks great though yours isn't cringy that's why i was like thank

00:53:48.880 you it worked out adriana's insurance on the inside cover but that's okay yeah i'm well i was all right

00:53:53.120 i made peace with it not a big deal but i'm excited for your book we'll see and for you to eventually

00:53:57.680 start writing a young adult fiction i want to so bad it's so fun it's oh my god it's a blast well

00:54:03.520 you just you get to go to like the fun part of your brain as opposed to the part of your brain

00:54:07.280 that houses all of your childhood trauma that's where i've been i've just been in like the deep

00:54:13.040 suppressed parts of me crying every day reading my journals from like seventh grade like how did i

00:54:19.360 feel about my body oh bad that's right it's like the worst process just wanted to check in real

00:54:25.760 quick i'm like let me write about a fictional 19 year old in a world with no phones whose parents are

00:54:32.720 dead and she finds a portal in a tree yeah let me take a break from the self-analysis please so t

00:54:40.880 because my my family too hasn't read my book uh what yeah like my mom and sister haven't read my book

00:54:48.160 like other people it says really nice stuff about you guys thank that's what i said very flattering but

00:54:52.400 the reason why is because it's like uh really emotional like there are two parts like one of

00:54:57.440 them is like what i told you when i found out i didn't want to have kids i talk about having a

00:55:00.640 pregnancy scare that was one one of the most traumatic things to ever happened to me so

00:55:04.800 yeah writing about that was terrible yeah and then also when my sister came out to me that story is

00:55:08.880 also very hard so it was like like you said revisiting and reopening these wounds to write something

00:55:15.040 in a way that's not like too much information oh my god where it's kind of freaky a little bit like

00:55:20.720 it scares you away a little but also enough to get you to want to like commit to the book and read the

00:55:26.640 rest of it yeah oh it's it's been really hard to decide like what's too much what's too far right

00:55:33.200 i agree what's like my real feelings but not all of them yes you just want to do just enough of the

00:55:41.120 truth yeah but you can't like give everything yeah exactly because we already give so much of ourselves

00:55:46.320 oh my god which is why i struggled to write that book that's why the fiction book doesn't feel like that

00:55:50.160 at all because i was like i hate the parts about me that i have to share because i already share so much

00:55:55.760 and i already have a problem with people overstepping with me yeah and getting two in my life

00:56:00.880 so that's why i've said no to like reality tv like a reality show about my family like i've gotten those

00:56:06.400 many times which i always say i'm like i really think you guys would be bored like my family's not

00:56:11.280 that crazy yeah like my family's like loud and annoying but i think a lot of families are like

00:56:16.960 generally speaking but like my everyday life is very boring so that's why i'm like it's not nearly as

00:56:22.240 oh amazing they'd be creating drama exactly yeah i was like you'd have to orchestrate it and then

00:56:27.680 that just invites more people into my world and i hate that so that's what i with the book that is

00:56:33.120 what i felt better about though because like you were saying i can decide like the amount that's shared

00:56:38.640 to what degree to what detail and then after that it felt like you know smooth sailing once i got past

00:56:45.680 that first like initial writing of it and putting it through then i felt better but the fiction book

00:56:51.440 is like imagining it's like uh just like so what you would love like because i've read so many

00:56:58.240 fiction books like yeah have you read do you do you like reading them yeah they're romantic ones do you

00:57:02.400 have any faves yeah um what did i just well i did read all of the i read all the fairy ones the

00:57:10.320 akatar ones yeah yeah i did read all of those i read those ones too um i couldn't get into but then

00:57:16.960 i couldn't get into fourth wing is that romancy though yeah it is that's the one with the dragons

00:57:21.360 okay i just read one that's i don't think i think it's technically young adult because there's not like

00:57:27.760 a bunch of like smut in it or anything but it's really good yeah i think it's called the ember and the

00:57:31.840 ashes oh i've heard of that one yeah it's really good okay and i read the first one because my writing

00:57:37.040 partner got it for me and then i was like oh my god there's like i think there's two or three more

00:57:42.160 of them yeah and so i like went to the bookstore to get the rest of them and i go to the fantasy

00:57:46.400 section and i can't find them and i'm like oh these are for kids and so i had to go to the teen

00:57:52.080 section and i was like it's fine whatever the part where the winnie the pooh corner like you're like

00:57:57.680 it's right before that it's right before that and i just got the box set and i was like these

00:58:01.680 are coming home with me and then the one i'm reading right now um which is like lesbian vampires

00:58:53.520 yeah look my sister's literally downloading it it's really good it's really good i know she hasn't

00:59:00.160 gone she loves reading fiction and lesbian ones but she doesn't like romantic because there isn't a lot

00:59:05.440 of lesbian ones that she's been able to find that one because the straight ones she can't get into

00:59:09.600 awesome it's also like jumping between times between like two characters so far oh i love that yeah

00:59:17.680 it's really good oh my god i've read quite a few good ones yeah what have you read that's good

00:59:22.320 i've because akatar i was like i'll probably never read this again no never i i'm never gonna read

00:59:26.800 that one again it was fun though it was a good like there there were certain books though in that

00:59:30.800 series where i was like like the fourth one and akatar i was like hey kill this thing what what the

00:59:35.600 is the point like i don't even remember which one was the fourth one it was the orange one i know the

00:59:39.840 colors of the orange one's the last one it's that's the one right before that right no that's five

00:59:43.920 is the fourth one the tiny one tiny there's like a christmas book yes christmas book yeah the

00:59:49.200 christmas special special yeah yeah yeah because the bitch is shopping for presents the whole

00:59:53.200 goddamn book oh my god kill me well there are get back to the war ho what the fuck we have a war on

00:59:59.680 our hands going down right now oh my god i'm sick to my stomach that's the thing about the war in

01:00:03.840 those books they're kind of like hollywood over the holidays they just shut down no one's no one's

01:00:08.640 going to war until mid january check in with me in january yeah second week i mean there are books

01:00:13.440 where like the whole point is just like brin's told me about these books brin i'm gonna keep

01:00:18.160 referring to my sibling i'm sorry this is here but they have books that are apparently just like

01:00:23.360 about bakeries and the whole book is like describing things in the bakery what the hell

01:00:30.000 i wasn't interested you were not interested when i told you i like it as a concept i'm not gonna read

01:00:34.640 about you're like they describe cinnamon rolls but they don't call it a cinnamon roll

01:00:39.040 what on earth is relaxing did you listen to it yeah it sounds very relaxing oh that was nice yeah

01:00:46.400 and i mean in in the audio sure yeah in the audio sure yeah when i i do find it strange when people

01:00:51.760 listen to smutty books via audio do you do that no it's a little but i do for me but i do listen to

01:00:57.120 audio porn because like don't let's not pretend right i know i'm like i can't do a book but pornography

01:01:03.680 i will that's actually that's the only porn i can handle is audio porn really yeah because i feel like

01:01:08.560 i'm sort of like uh you know i'm like well you're working on your imagination i was gonna say i was

01:01:13.360 like what are you exercising that muscle yeah yeah it's about creativity i gotta get i gotta get

01:01:18.000 creative yeah no it's not i'm not even horny i'm just inspired as a writer that's how i came up with

01:01:23.840 the title of my special yeah prodigal daughter there you go that's actually so i yeah you're you're

01:01:29.440 a weirdo for that but that is i do get it no it is weird you are weird but that is cool but i didn't

01:01:34.240 watch any porn before that so i'm to me yeah that's true yeah like again to go from porn is

01:01:40.880 evil you're going to hell if you even think about it right to now i listen to audio porn that's growth

01:01:46.880 i really that is true you're right that is growth i do think that is a little bit more of a commitment

01:01:51.920 than watching it physically probably because listening feels a little more like sensual like

01:01:57.440 they're like whispering in your ear like do you fuck with like quinn or anything like that like audio

01:02:01.200 erotica uh-huh yeah you're not into that i mean it's the same thing it's the same as the romance

01:02:07.520 yeah honestly if you think about it it's the same thing as reading you're just you can brag about

01:02:10.800 reading books right and you can't brag about they look down oh they look down on ear porn yeah they

01:02:15.920 shouldn't it's all the same let's have some open minds please but you can say it about it although

01:02:21.840 sometimes you say that you read a certain book and people are like isn't that just all

01:02:26.560 sex right in that book isn't that just yeah like the 50 shades of gray books oh yeah well that is

01:02:31.120 really just that is and i've read those books and i read them in college they're terrible yeah they're

01:02:35.760 really really bad like they're bad they're poorly written and poorly structured like the the i remember

01:02:43.120 explaining carrie like is one of my best friends she's here she's my assistant i forget she reads a

01:02:47.840 lot of the same books i do yeah um so she's the only one in my friend group that can pace with me

01:02:52.240 everybody else reads too slow so she she reads alongside me and i was telling her i was like

01:02:56.480 have you ever read the 50 shades of gray books and she was like no i've never read those which i was

01:03:00.160 like don't they're terrible but i told her the whole plot it's insane like when you say what happened in

01:03:05.680 the last book you're like what the it just felt like what's another horrible thing i could just throw

01:03:12.000 in here oh my god like she has like and also i hate like when you talk about tropes and like fiction

01:03:17.680 books the one if i could kill a trope with my bare hands it would be a pregnancy one oh because

01:03:23.360 he's pregnant yeah she ends up getting pregnant and what's funny is like the dude hasn't she been

01:03:28.080 through enough right she's already dealing with bdsm now on top of that now she has life

01:03:32.560 growing inside her and it's because she wasn't getting her shots which is you know i would say

01:03:37.920 a poster for contraception yeah make sure you check in but she like gets pregnant and then it's like

01:03:43.680 it's kind of worried and then it's like actually i think i'm really excited about this which makes

01:03:48.000 sense because she's 22 and then do the whole time yeah like she's like all the books she's 22 yeah and

01:03:53.280 i think he's like i hate 30 i think he's like 30 ish and she's like 22. i can't read books about 22

01:03:59.840 year olds anymore i can't read books about college i'm over unless there are dragons then you can be

01:04:04.160 like 20. right exactly of course that's why that's why i think i like the romantic ones because every

01:04:08.640 time i read the other ones or try to they're like and i just graduated from high school

01:04:13.360 yeah close the book i'm not reading i'm not reading that i'm not reading about children i

01:04:17.440 even and this is like kind of funny but when i sold my fiction book one of the meetings i had with

01:04:23.440 with a potential publisher this is not my publisher they asked me in earnest they were like are you

01:04:28.960 interested in making the character 23 because she's 30 in my books and then i and you're like

01:04:35.200 fuck you it's me yeah i'm the main character i literally said that i was like i told her in the

01:04:41.280 meeting i go no yeah and she goes no i go no not even a little um she's gonna be 30 and everybody

01:04:46.480 else could be 30 and also it's okay because she's a fairy so she's actually immortal it actually

01:04:51.120 doesn't matter time is actually a construct to her if we're being honest no there's no

01:04:55.280 romantic books where they're 30. i'm so excited you are filling a hole in the market i'm telling you

01:05:00.080 i'm so excited do you read normal fantasy or normal romance books um i can't do that i'm sure no i

01:05:06.480 haven't it's hard they're all fantasy ones i've never read the like i know there's like emily henry

01:05:11.520 no yeah the people we made on vacation they made that on netflix that's also an emily henry book i

01:05:16.640 think yeah i think so i watched the movie i was kind of like the movie was cute it was fun but i was

01:05:22.240 really i hate a trope when one person like someone is stringing along someone else for a long period of

01:05:29.360 time i'm just i always have a hard time with just be together right is most romance movies books

01:05:36.560 whatever now i'm like just be together who cares that's why i like bridgerton because it's like i

01:05:40.000 understand why you can't i understand why you can't there's there's outside pieces in place yes

01:05:44.400 i know i've heard i haven't gotten into bridgerton i tried i tried the first season three times and i

01:05:50.480 just like couldn't just go to the next one that's what everybody tells me everyone's like man

01:05:53.840 fuck that one or or watch queen charlotte oh yeah if i don't watch season is that the one

01:06:00.160 with jonathan bailey yeah season two yeah they said if not that one then watch queen charlotte

01:06:04.080 because that's the good one that's with king george right that one's really good i do remember

01:06:07.360 that one i've i watched i think the first few episodes on tiktok you know you can watch them

01:06:12.000 in like 72 parts do you know what i just saw on tiktok in like 72 parts i didn't watch the whole thing

01:06:16.400 but i saw that it was in 72 parts high school musical and i think disney put it out it wasn't like it

01:06:22.160 wasn't just someone going let's share my favorite movie from childhood it was like

01:06:26.320 disney official and they're part one yes that's crazy yeah and also i was never the same when high

01:06:34.000 school musical came oh my god i loved that it was so like you wouldn't believe it changed everything

01:06:39.920 it did i it shifted my paradigm i loved that movie and then did you like glee i loved glee because glee

01:06:46.640 wasn't that far behind my sister and i were big gleeks like and forget we forget about that's true

01:06:52.800 we're losing the ancient text yeah this is actually perfect too because i was recently telling my

01:06:57.440 friend group i like text them in our group chat i was like guys i think it's time we pick a show

01:07:02.400 to all watch together but it has to be an older one like one that's not great but it has to be

01:07:06.560 finished and a little bit older but not too old so like so glee yeah i suggested i said here are my

01:07:12.320 thought starters let us know what you think i was like teen wolf vampire diaries glee vampire diaries

01:07:18.400 really holds up i said that to taylor really holds up my friends are haters none of them want to watch

01:07:24.880 it with me i was like i'm telling you it's so good they are missing out i've had i had brin watch some

01:07:30.400 of it and brin was like confused and i said this is how i felt when i watched it because i didn't watch

01:07:34.960 it when i was younger i watched it as an adult me too and i was like why is this so good why is this

01:07:41.440 so good it didn't need to be this good if you muscle through the like the diary part yeah the

01:07:46.400 first half of season one if you muscle through and you get to like two to four perfect television

01:07:52.000 prime television prime yeah it was so i was gagged every week and then needle drops

01:07:57.760 yeah really just takes you back to that time right it's like it's so nostalgic i know if you're a

01:08:03.520 millennial like it's so good and the the acting is good i know like even the lines that are bad

01:08:10.720 we were like that's a great read that's a great read they're selling that girl in my office if i had

01:08:16.560 read it in a script i'd have been like this is gonna be dog right and they kill it i know it's so

01:08:22.080 good and i literally have told them i was like we have to watch vampire diaries it's so good i was

01:08:27.600 watching it religiously when i was in college like when it was still going and i remember when i stopped

01:08:32.080 watching was it when i went to college no it was when um stephan not even then i could have i could

01:08:37.520 have cut out then because then it started getting crazy and i was like this is ridiculous and yeah

01:08:40.640 that's when i stopped towards me too like i was like i'm over it it was when stephan and elena

01:08:45.360 officially decided that they were never going to be together ever again it was literally i'm not

01:08:50.880 kidding there was probably about 10 minutes left in the episode but there's a part where they're

01:08:54.400 sitting across from each other and then he goes she goes friends forever no and then he goes yeah

01:08:59.840 close my laptop i never watched it again i was like this show do you know what happens after

01:09:04.640 that yeah you know spoilers i know like a couple i know i know like the majority of it but again like

01:09:09.120 i said it gets insane and then stephan and caroline end up together what yeah they end up together

01:09:16.080 they end up having children he ends up dying goes into the afterlife then damon ends up switching

01:09:21.280 places with him bonnie starts dating another guy who also bonnie and stephan dated yeah yeah they date

01:09:27.520 for a little too but everyone dates it's just that's what happened with glee too yes is they

01:09:31.600 just started going what about these two people what if they hooked up for an episode and a half

01:09:37.040 like let's just throw darts at a wall and let's see truly that is how it felt it just felt like

01:09:41.280 they were hopping online going what does tumblr want to see let's do that and they're not going

01:09:46.240 to the right sources they're not because i and i i literally every time i pick up like i'm like this

01:09:50.640 is my guy like if there's like a love triangle of sorts yeah which is what i'm like writing into my book

01:09:55.760 because i think love triangles are fun they're the best if they sustain like i re-watched the

01:10:00.320 twilight movies they're bad obviously but they're so perfect the first one's kind of good right but

01:10:06.160 they're so perfect though like they're bad but they're perfect and like i re-watched eclipse last

01:10:10.560 year oh but the scene when they're in the tent and like he's low-key edward like edwards in the

01:10:16.080 cuck chair and he's in the in the sleeping bag with her that was crazy i watched that whole scene i was

01:10:21.040 like god this is so good oh i love it oh my god it's so good like it's it's so good it's so great

01:10:27.680 terrible we we watched heated rivalry also have you seen he'd run i haven't watched it you haven't

01:10:54.160 know if it's good or not i'm not commenting it's not and i know it doesn't compare it to rubbery

01:10:57.520 i know it's bad compared to you are you scared to watch heated rivalry now because of all the hype

01:11:00.880 no it's more so like this is what i explained i literally explained this last night too because

01:11:05.120 a lot of people were like what the fuck you watched this bullshit before yeah and i said here's

01:11:08.720 why it's like a perfect scrolling show i can still rot my brain and watch yeah no heated rivalry is

01:11:15.200 not a second no and i was like when i have things that i love dearly like that i need to clear my

01:11:20.320 calendar oh yeah i don't have time i have to board up the windows like i have to make sure i have

01:11:24.880 bottled water in my house i have too many things i was like i have to be in the right space okay good

01:11:30.720 i'm glad to unlock it that's a good excuse for not watching that's why i'm like you got to give me time

01:11:35.360 i will make my way back to it someone said you're so me because uh that's why i feel so nervous when

01:11:41.040 people are so excited about something that i have to watch when the glitter fades that's how

01:11:45.600 i feel okay okay look i watched it i watched it like on christmas and that was late like i watched

01:11:53.760 it when like everything had come out and i was nervous i was like there's no way this is gonna

01:11:57.680 be as good as everyone's saying and then it was even better than everyone it was so good and now

01:12:03.040 i've seen a bunch of but i had i made one of my best friends watch heated rivalry and she was like

01:12:08.560 oh my god this is so good she's like texting me throughout and we were like when was the last

01:12:13.280 time we felt like this and we realized it was when kurt and blaine kissed yep that's what do you

01:12:19.680 remember he's saying and then they kissed i can still remember where i was that was everything okay

01:12:30.960 darren chris on glee when he was still a warbler that was a problem for me oh you want to hear

01:12:35.040 something so funny hold on i'll literally show you right now because on my spotify

01:12:39.520 i literally looked up i'm not going to teach your boyfriend how to dance with you so darren chris's

01:12:43.920 version the only version that matters the only version that should exist and we were on my sister

01:12:48.560 and i were on a glee podcast with jenna ushkowitz oh right they do like a rewatch yeah what's his

01:12:54.560 and kevin mikhail we were on their podcast because we were big glee fans and we talked about like that

01:12:59.600 was one of our favorite covers from the show was i'm not gonna teach your boyfriend how to dance with you

01:13:03.040 and then they were both like that is so funny you say that because that is a lot of people's

01:13:07.920 favorite cover and i don't know why that one and i was like you know why for me my theory other than

01:13:13.040 the fact that it bangs other than that my theory is because that was the first time i was when i was a

01:13:18.640 huge gleek and i watched eric chris and i said hold on now why he a little it took you that long a little

01:13:25.840 bit like hold on like i was like he's why is he fine low-key like when i was we didn't feel like that

01:13:30.720 during teenage dreams i felt like because it felt like i was like oh so cute like that's so sweet

01:13:37.120 and then with that it felt like hmm interesting i was like i feel like a woman watching this i feel

01:13:43.760 like a woman i was like he's a gay man by the way playing a gay man and he was nothing he's not a gay

01:13:47.840 man not in real life not in real life but in the show he is yeah yeah in the show he is what if i didn't

01:13:51.920 know his canon what are what what what no they were like an otp for sure yeah they were it was

01:14:01.040 important man it was really important and i loved like santana was like one of our favorite characters

01:14:07.520 santana and britney yes everything everything about their whole relationship loved it i re-watched glee

01:14:13.600 i think like during the pandemic i re-watched it i showed it to my man because he had never watched it

01:14:18.080 and i actually had never seen the very last season i still haven't it's honestly good really they did

01:14:23.920 a great job like it was a little annoying in certain parts but for the most part i was like i feel like

01:14:27.840 they ended it well oh wow did a good job with as long as that show was on the air it was on for a long

01:14:32.800 time but it was like watching santana i was like a beautiful mean hilarious yeah it's nice to see

01:14:40.800 myself represented on tv i'll be honest it's nice to see myself represented her version of valerie

01:14:46.080 oh my god her version of all like even the mine by taylor swift so good when she's breaking up with

01:14:53.600 britney i mean and the writing on that show was very funny yeah they were a lot of really good jokes

01:14:59.280 on that show yeah this is now a glee re-watch podcast now i was like now next what we missed on

01:15:04.080 glee but we're not watching the episodes we're just gonna remember random moments that resonated with

01:15:10.080 us and go and do you remember that one part we're gonna jump around a lot i remember when i

01:15:13.760 watched them do the mashup of let's have a kiki and turkey lurking time when they started doing

01:15:18.480 mashups oh they didn't have to do that the let's have a kiki above and beyond yeah they had the most

01:15:25.200 famous people in the world going on the show too that in let's have a kiki that was like sarah jessica

01:15:29.360 parker opens up the number and i i listened to that till my ears bled i was like this is the greatest

01:15:37.360 mashup i've ever heard it's genuinely so good oh my god well we're so alike you and me we're so like

01:15:44.240 which speaking of now we're gonna move on to your fun facts i don't think we did fun facts we didn't

01:15:48.560 do fun facts last time this is a new new segment right yeah we got real bored with the tick tock

01:15:53.280 so i was like let's do fun facts and now amanda's i'm so scared in house nardwar i'm so scared about

01:15:59.680 yeah my fun facts so okay so this first one i mean you did talk about this first time you're here but

01:16:04.640 your comedy career started when you were 16 and your dad signed both of them up for a stand-up

01:16:10.080 class in a church basement yeah it wasn't in a basement i don't know why like we live in southern

01:16:15.440 california there's no basements here but unless something bad's happening it just sounded good

01:16:20.400 i guess to someone a long time ago and they wrote basement it's not important enough for me to ever

01:16:25.680 correct anybody but i respect you so it was just a room it was sort of like a it was probably like a kid's

01:16:31.600 uh you know classroom or like the nursery at a church yeah exactly yeah the nursery room so

01:16:38.880 there's like noah's ark on the wall yeah something like that big like pictures of the lines yeah we

01:16:44.160 were at like desks i think yeah yeah learning the art of stand-up yeah but that's why like this new

01:16:50.560 special prodigal daughter february 24th it's out it's out sorry forgetting don't need to say the date

01:16:55.280 uh but that's why this new special is like it's a lot about how i started in churches

01:17:00.720 and quite frankly the fact that i'm sitting on a gold mine i could totally turn the ship around

01:17:06.320 anytime i wanted and the narrative is you got me back right yeah i lost my way for a bit but here

01:17:13.040 i am guess what the lord always finds me the lord i walk in the light of the lord my sister before i

01:17:19.920 walked to the carpet at the oscars for the first time i wore a wig and she went you wanted it to

01:17:24.640 look like that right and then i went look like what and she goes never mind and then i walked out

01:17:29.920 it looks good and she goes no it doesn't look it doesn't look bad i just was making sure making

01:17:34.240 sure what brin's literally said that exact thing to me i think is like is this what you want is this

01:17:39.040 who you want to be okay the stillest face you've ever seen no expression sure you wanted it to look

01:17:44.880 trying to look neutral just is that so this is good for you do you feel that's my like if we're

01:17:51.120 being honest when you go do you feel good that hurts my feelings

01:17:58.960 and this is the place we unpack dead eyes do you feel good it's genuine i know it is but it

01:18:05.360 the way i interpret it in my brain is should i not yeah literally

01:18:10.320 that's so true you're right wisdom literally you are you're wiser than me it's like very literal

01:18:20.000 and very like my like my sister my sister literally tells me what does she say she goes

01:18:25.840 no it doesn't look bad does she ever go it doesn't look bad it doesn't look like you no yeah yeah or

01:18:31.440 she'll be like i mean like i just i don't know if you wanted it to look that way yes that's what she'll

01:18:35.280 say to me and i go look like what way yeah and she goes nothing is this what you're going for yeah

01:18:41.040 and you're like i thought it was and then and then she'll just go again it doesn't look bad

01:18:46.160 but it's something in the eyes yeah i'm like we so it doesn't look good it just doesn't look bad

01:18:51.040 what do you mean we're over analyzing we are over analyzing but i don't think we're wrong no not at

01:18:56.640 all and i think both of our siblings are are being real ones yeah trying to help us but a little hurting

01:19:02.800 my feelings yeah love that just a little teeny tiny bit yeah i did want to also say about your

01:19:09.840 golden globes carpet the fact that you brought a little case of snacks oh my god genius thank you

01:19:16.080 so smart and when you were like i even have lactaid i was so impressed i was so impressed i have like a

01:19:21.840 little uh pharmacy like a little pharmacy my mom actually made it for me um but in it like when i do

01:19:28.960 genuinely just carry lactaid because i am like a lactose person and i will ship myself so like i

01:19:34.720 have to keep it on my person and you don't want to stop having it right exactly yeah i'm like well

01:19:38.720 sometimes i have to enjoy life's little pleasures right if i don't have lactaid what am i gonna do

01:19:42.720 yeah run the risk of course not so when i opened that i was like this is literally just mine like

01:19:47.360 that i just have in my bag and when i uh showed it to liza like on the thing my mom wrote in there

01:19:53.200 because my anxiety meds are in there too so one of them says ativan and one says beta blockers oh

01:19:59.120 my god i showed it and she was like oh my god can i have some of those too and we laughed and she goes

01:20:04.960 let me take a picture oh my god i have to show she's like actually though can i have that i was

01:20:09.840 like i can give you one if you want just kidding i'm kidding i'm kidding we're kidding globes if you

01:20:14.240 see that i was we're kidding it's literally and that's why you hired her because she's kidding

01:20:18.880 because i'm kidding and hilarious golden gloves calm down calm down oh my god but yeah the snacks

01:20:24.640 thing i used to have a tote bag and i used to flip it inside out so there was no branding because i

01:20:29.920 just had no time to get anything else and then everybody made fun of my tote bag everybody was

01:20:34.080 like that ugly ass bag out of here no the case was really good yeah and so i was like i'm thinking of

01:20:38.320 like a caboodle of sorts to like unveil like this yeah and it worked out great it was a willy

01:20:43.840 wonka move yeah and then they're like oh when stars see it they're like oh i love that i love

01:20:50.000 all about presentation it really is i am but a tap dancing monkey on those carpets otherwise they're

01:20:54.800 gonna shoot so hard by the way i would i would shit my pants if i had to do that it looks so scary

01:21:00.720 what's worse is like sometimes i tell people like they don't i don't always have what they call a

01:21:06.000 wrangler which are people who can stand because they make me stand behind something always whether

01:21:10.400 it's a gate someone to grab the famous people to wrangle famous people but they don't have to

01:21:16.560 stop if they don't want to obviously so like a lot of times i have to lean on being recognized by them

01:21:22.960 which does tend to work in my favor a lot of times like the kpop right i have to be i have to be posed

01:21:28.160 like adriana's insurance for them to see me and sometimes i'll be like if you just get them to look

01:21:33.360 at me like they'll they'll recognize me um because even the k-pop demon hunter girls you're doing your book

01:21:38.960 cover right for real they gave up demon hunter girls like um they were so busy obviously everybody

01:21:44.480 wanted to talk to them and they were they're so sweet and they stopped so many times and then i

01:21:48.800 was at the very end of carpet so they were like walking past me and one of them saw me and she was

01:21:54.400 like i love you that's the best and i go period and she goes look look look look it's drew from tiktok

01:22:00.320 and then they were like oh my god i love your stuff i was like you guys love me and they're like

01:22:04.080 yeah i'm enough to come over here come on over here prove it come here and then they always come

01:22:08.880 over that's nice or if daughters like sometimes they'll have wives or daughters that are walking

01:22:14.320 with their spouses or their parents or whatever and they're like oh my god i fucking love you

01:22:18.880 i go really who's your dad is he famous can he come over here i'll ask i will i don't give a

01:22:25.440 fuck i'll ask every time but sometimes like they just walk right by you it's a real hit or mess

01:22:30.320 oh my god it just depends a lot does it bug you or are you just like all right no i never get

01:22:34.960 offended like i've never i've had very few carpet interviews where people were rude or like dismissive

01:22:40.480 but sometimes like the snacks are a huge pull so like at sag last year when i went to the sag awards

01:22:45.440 last year i told them i have snacks and liquor like they they love the little shooters right and i bring

01:22:52.080 those two so like um ebon from the bear oh yeah cousin he hates interviews hates doing carpet stuff

01:23:01.040 so he stopped like once and then he was walking and one of the people that was with me they were

01:23:05.840 like she has snacks and alcohol and he was like did you say alcohol and she said yeah and he walked

01:23:11.280 right to me and then i was like i'll give it to you after you answer a couple questions and then

01:23:16.320 they're always really cool about it they're always very very nice but like it's very rare that they're

01:23:20.320 not fired up about the snacks they do love those and a lot of times they're starving like they're

01:23:25.120 like oh my god i'm so hungry can i take a couple yeah i'm like yeah take whatever you want and they're

01:23:30.160 like they laced up the corset i can eat now it's fine literally i was like no go ahead suck on it so

01:23:36.480 it lasts longer okay more fun facts about you uh this one says you were once fired from a comedy

01:23:43.600 gig at a church over a tweet yep what was the tweet in question the tweet was uh i'm like a wild animal

01:23:50.000 in bed way more afraid of you than you are of me ended up on conan no regrets that's a good joke

01:23:56.320 yeah it's a good job yeah it's a one-liner it's really good and they were like you can't we have

01:24:00.800 homeschoolers they said listen here jezebel they did you're not gonna come here and spread that sin

01:24:06.320 i'll tell you that damn over a fire tweet yeah well you win some you lose some we win some you lose

01:24:13.360 some and i was like that was the moment that i was like i never want to feel because i've never been

01:24:17.200 fired from anything i was like yeah i'm a good kid like i've done everything and so i was like

01:24:21.280 i'm never gonna feel this way again i'm never doing a church again and you know what that worked

01:24:25.600 out for the best it did and look thank god because if i hadn't made it in a secular world that would

01:24:32.640 have been tough i'd still be on cruise ships right now yeah or or you'd have a private jet and you'd

01:24:38.080 be the most famous well i would have had to go back i would have had to go i would oh my god drew

01:24:42.000 i'm not even i would have been the biggest church comedian in the working to i would have been

01:24:49.840 i was getting paid more like you had no business paying me as much as i was making when i was like

01:24:55.520 21 yeah and i was the only person that was that young doing it everyone else is like a guy in their

01:25:01.600 40s 50s whatever with a full family his wife oh it's like well just like completely completely different

01:25:07.920 and i was like i if i stay here i'm gonna make it and we can't do that no we can't we can't do that

01:25:16.400 don't make me do that yeah you would kill though it's nice to have it in your back pocket of course

01:25:20.480 in case you ever need to pay my escape plan it's my retirement plan if i get canceled i know where

01:25:25.440 i'm going that's that's what's happening and i have i have the whole pitch in my head yeah you're

01:25:30.560 doing a real nikki minaj pivot no i have some debts i have to settle sorry i gotta be transphobic and i

01:25:35.680 have to be racist yeah i got some sharks after me bitch i gotta do something about it i gotta do

01:25:41.440 something about it i gotta hit a a far right pipeline i don't think i'd be able to do that i don't think

01:25:46.560 i'd be able to do like the the transphobic and all that stuff but i think i would i would just have to

01:25:51.520 do the thing where like anytime someone's like and you don't want them to use our bathrooms right

01:25:55.600 i'd be like i am so sorry i have to pee so bad i will be right back to finish the meet and greet i'm

01:26:00.080 gonna go yeah just like avoid yeah avoid it i'm so sorry i have diarrhea i have to go but

01:26:05.600 or you can say like i'm an artist i don't get political oh my god i know you could always just

01:26:12.560 say that dude i was like that for years i was like we're all idiots no one should answer like i was like

01:26:18.320 that dumb for a long time for too long i was like we no one wants to hear what we think we're stupid

01:26:23.840 and it's like no only you're stupid other people are reading yeah what a dumb ass thing to say i'm an

01:26:29.120 artist i don't get political yeah made that is that is how on melma that is how people say i'm

01:26:34.960 conservative yeah publicly yeah but unfortunately i think gay people i need them low-key to like me

01:26:41.040 online i do think that's like one of those when they say like i don't know just i don't know anything

01:26:46.640 i can't say anything i just don't know i know you don't know what truly me when i was younger i'm like

01:26:51.760 i'm too dumb i can't do anything and everyone's like but you that's your fault though for being stupid

01:26:56.800 that's fully on you though right no yeah that's called ignorance yeah i'm like there's nothing

01:27:01.760 i could possibly do except maybe read one thing there's nothing i could do i'm my hands are tied

01:27:08.160 here i don't do paying attention i don't have access to the internet so stupid and you know what i'll say

01:27:15.040 i've made this joke for a while um because i thought sydney sweeney years ago when her when they

01:27:20.960 found out her family was maga right because they were wearing maga things and her mom's birthday

01:27:25.200 and weren't they weren't they like it was a bit no she literally responded herself and said guys

01:27:31.200 it's my mom's birthday which i think i thought she said they were wearing them as a joke or something

01:27:36.160 which i was like what weird joke to make it's not i was like that's like at an aryan only party

01:27:42.160 it's a very weird joke what publicist was like just say it's a bit everyone knows you're hilarious

01:27:46.880 yeah everyone knows you're a jokester just tell them you're doing another you're doing another

01:27:54.480 maga hat bit yeah you're silly everyone loves the maga hat and they know you love hats and they know you

01:28:01.040 love hats everyone's pretending they voted for trump it's hilarious they know that but she literally went

01:28:08.880 guys it's my mom's birthday which has been a running joke in my repertoire since before i started

01:28:14.080 doing this like i was literally like guys it's my mom's birthday this is what we do on mom's birthday

01:28:19.360 yeah and like what are you doing on your mom's birthday if someone tells me yeah they're like

01:28:23.600 you're being offensive this is offensive why would you do this i go guys it's my mom's birthday that's

01:28:28.080 so funny and i said she's low-key hilarious for doing that like that's low-key so funny like she

01:28:33.120 is not meaning to be funny at all but that is hilarious that is fun and it's it's similar to the

01:28:37.760 people are gonna die do you remember that like people and yeah i mean i guess people are gonna die

01:28:42.800 like about coachella being canceled funny was that about coachella yes bitch oh my god i did that was

01:28:48.800 her on live pissed off that was vanessa hudgens obviously pissed off that they canceled oh i didn't

01:28:54.240 know that was about could you be any more unplugged like that's the funniest part she's like what do you

01:29:02.160 mean i don't get to run around in fringe in the desert the are you talking about it's funny too i will

01:29:06.720 see people on tiktok like defending it now they'll go she was right i'm like what are you serious no

01:29:14.480 yeah just millions of people had to die because none of you and there's kids on tiktok going people

01:29:18.400 did die right it was inevitable and you're like what okay let's not they just watched high school

01:29:23.760 musical in 72 parts right right right right and they're like i'm a new fan and like that's exactly

01:29:29.840 what i'm talking about when i said the media literacy crisis is in the toilet a lot of people don't have

01:29:33.680 it anymore but i just want to say i made that joke about guys it's my mom's birthday like i said that

01:29:38.720 i've said that publicly many times because i thought it was funny yeah because it's ignorant and that is

01:29:42.560 funny to me and a lot of people were like oh that's up to say about her like basically saying like if

01:29:48.240 i'm not endlessly complimenting women then that means i must not love all women right like if i if i

01:29:54.720 think women do up things for some reason that means i'm not a real feminist right and i and when

01:29:59.200 i was on trixie mattel's youtube channel i made a joke to her that like this is a running that i do

01:30:04.160 on carpets i've done this many times even with guests in on the show where i've been like well

01:30:08.720 i mean we're about the same size where do you shop like i make that joke intentionally i've made it to

01:30:12.960 men i made it to women i've made it to other people too like it's a funny joke and and when they laugh

01:30:17.840 like they and they throw it back to me it's fun and i said when i meet if i ever meet her because

01:30:22.640 this is before anything else i said you bet your ass i'm gonna make that joke because it's gonna offend her

01:30:28.160 i can tell which which then makes me laugh like it makes me laugh that it would hurt your feelings

01:30:33.280 to look like me low-key that's funny oh my god i mean i would i don't know i shouldn't say that

01:30:38.800 i guess i guess i'm like i honestly don't even know if she would get it not because like i feel

01:30:45.120 like she might just be like well that's where i'm saying like literally speaking she'd be like

01:30:49.040 no we don't look alike and no we're not the same size oh my god then like it jokes like that like

01:30:54.160 force you to confront your biases in front of me yeah you said her career i find that hilarious

01:30:59.040 yeah when i made that joke on trixie's channel obviously that made her laugh but a lot of people

01:31:02.880 in the comments because they clipped it and put it on youtube a lot of people were like that's so

01:31:06.240 like you know that's up like that's really up i go why is because i'm a big hairy ogre the

01:31:12.320 fuck fuck you oh i was like it's funny it's a joke and who cares and then all this shit happened and i said

01:31:18.240 so when i make another joke about guys it's my mom's birthday you're all gonna be cool don't wanna

01:31:23.280 fucking hear it don't wanna fucking hear it because i made that joke already and i have made

01:31:28.080 little jokes like that to people in the past that have been kind of rude or dismissive on carpets

01:31:32.960 and you're right they don't get them they don't get them at all like they have no sense of humor

01:31:37.280 at all one guy on a carpet they're tired and right and i made it he was i asked him a very simple

01:31:44.240 question he was giving me some bullshit ass answer i think he was trying to be funny or i don't know

01:31:48.960 but i asked him a question and he was like oh like at my like i throw all these big parties i

01:31:53.600 throw these huge parties at my house he kept saying that over and over again i throw these

01:31:56.720 huge parties and we make ice cream sandwiches at my house and i and he said i throw these huge parties

01:32:02.640 at least three times in the time i was talking to him and i go okay all these parties and i haven't

01:32:07.040 been to one that's fucked up and then he goes i don't even know you i just met you like i'm

01:32:14.960 fucking stupid and he says that to me and i go and what does that mean i can't come to your house

01:32:20.000 what does that mean and then he goes anyways and he like what his answer wasn't like trying

01:32:26.800 to do a bit back no oh my god because i think he thought i was being very literal so that's why

01:32:31.520 and even some people in the comments caught it a little bit and some of my things where they were

01:32:34.880 like why would he why was he so like offended when she made that joke it's tough when you see like

01:32:40.880 celebrities trying like they're not making a joke or even saying anything that makes sense but they're

01:32:47.200 saying it in the cadence of a joke and that is really hard to watch when they're like well you

01:32:54.320 know that and you're like huh yeah yeah well that was okay like you have the rhythm of a joke right

01:33:02.560 you're and you're smiling yeah and you laugh like when kids yes and then you're like oh that was so

01:33:08.880 funny yes you're just pretending with them yeah you gotta step into the to the delusion right step

01:33:14.880 into that's what seems like the hardest part about doing those carpet interviews is the the fake

01:33:20.480 laughing you probably have to do oh girl the amount of fake laughing also the way that um right before i

01:33:26.400 talk to them especially if they're really famous yeah i'll have someone come to me and go you get one

01:33:32.480 one question that's it the celebrity will say that or they're very publicist oh okay they'll yell in

01:33:38.560 my face like that one oh my god and then they turn around and then their backs are to me and i'm like

01:33:44.080 and okay oh my god how are you and your first question is can i ask more questions right like

01:33:48.960 with a genie who says three wishes can i ask you five questions and they're like yes you yeah and

01:33:56.880 sometimes like i'll say to them like they said i only got one so i gotta be quick and then i'll

01:34:03.200 ask them the best question and then when they giggle sometimes they'll be like ask me another one

01:34:07.680 ask me another one so the whole point is to get them to like me but sometimes their their teams are

01:34:12.320 yelling at me yes they do this thing too where like if you're talking for too long they'll walk up

01:34:17.680 behind you in your frame and then they'll just hold your back like this i don't like that or they'll touch

01:35:18.880 also think you're a great fit for it is like your energy and a lot of comedians have this too which i

01:35:23.680 think is really good for famous people is like you're kind of like i don't care how hot and famous

01:35:32.800 you are right and a lot of people most people treat you really well and gently because you look like

01:35:39.200 this exactly but i don't give a fuck right and you don't have the things that i'm looking for yeah

01:35:45.920 when i am like intimidated by people like i want people to be like really funny and interesting and

01:35:51.360 you don't have that you're just symmetrical and i think that throws famous people for a loop

01:35:56.960 it's true when you're kind of like hey how are you and they're like why didn't the temperature in

01:36:00.640 the room change when i walked in usually usually i float in yeah and everyone kind of yeah and you

01:36:09.040 didn't you didn't really snap to attention there your panties aren't soaked yeah that's interesting

01:36:14.160 i find that interesting about your boobs didn't perk up yeah and i just is my manager here because

01:36:20.560 yeah they they you're so right yeah especially with men like men like really famous men because

01:36:25.520 like yeah you're like i'm already engaged to a hawkeye i'm fine i'm here for a check and a check only

01:40:25.760 no cat was mean to dog oh i thought it was gonna be because they're conjoined well what i was i you'd

01:40:30.960 think i'd be allowed to watch that in a christian household because no one has genitals that's that's

01:40:34.480 a wholesome piece of content about animals that are not gonna fuck because they can't they can't

01:40:40.160 literally you're just upset that cats like you're being stupid like any any show that said stupid they

01:40:45.120 were like you can't like we'd learn that word from that show and not from school yeah and you're like

01:43:04.000 come around with the basket oh oh my god i took my man there one time right before they closed them

01:43:09.600 all because we started dating in 2017 and i took him i think that christmas that was like god and he

01:43:14.320 was like this is one of the best restaurants i've ever been to it's so good right yes and it's funny

01:43:20.080 because you know you can get as much soup as you want like yeah my sister was a big clam chowder

01:43:24.160 fan there and just the way you're talking about and you know you can get as much soup as you want

01:43:30.720 you know that and you know and you know you can you have you heard the whole it's so it's as much

01:43:37.680 soup as as much you know you go to a lot of restaurants and they're like you get one bowl of soup

01:43:42.880 maybe two as much soup as you want i tell you unlimited i mean unlimited and they always have

01:43:49.280 clam chowder and maybe two or three others and for anyone listening in case you missed it it's as much

01:43:58.000 the most soup ever soup ever and i my man was like going back and getting a million

01:44:03.520 bowls of it oh my god but then he started stacking them like we were at conveyor belt sushi

01:44:08.640 and i was like hey they don't clear them like that so this is humiliating go ahead and clear your own

01:44:12.480 you put it on a on an empty table yeah and all their bowls have the handles so you can carry it

01:44:16.400 so you don't have to carry hot soup in your hands like they all they thought of everything and they

01:44:19.520 thought of everything the blueberry muffins yeah yeah yeah oh my god i loved i'm blueberry muffins

01:44:26.320 they're so upset and they're soft serve you can make your own little soft serve it was so

01:44:31.920 fucking it was the best it was best i wish we could go there they need to revive it you and i our

01:44:37.040 retirement plan should be reviving sue plantation let's go in on it don't fuck with me don't

01:44:41.280 drew barrymore me right now don't say we're gonna get dinner and we don't okay don't she didn't mean

01:44:45.760 it but i do i do don't threaten me with restarting a chain of restaurants that was important to me as

01:44:52.800 a child don't fuck with me right now i'm so i love sue plantation we should get matching sue plantation

01:45:00.160 tattoos merch we should do oh the tattoos we do a little tomato little tomatoes yeah

01:45:11.600 i'm talking about all my tattoo ideas are so lame they're all like spur of the moment you're like

01:45:16.880 i'm feeling inspired in this moment i'm gonna go get this to the tattoo artist that's what you want

01:45:21.680 i want a little tomato oh what's the tomato for do you remember failed buffet style restaurant but

01:45:28.560 healthy soup plantation right no it was sweet tomatoes for a while remember sweet tomatoes of

01:45:33.760 course okay listen listen to me as much as much soup as you want

01:45:42.160 and get this as much soup as much because you know when you're eating soup you're always like i wish i

01:45:46.480 had an unlimited amount of soup you always want more you're kidding but i'm not yeah because every

01:45:53.280 time i eat soup i'm like well that was like nothing i felt like i just sat there and opened my mouth

01:45:57.280 and closed it a million times and i go why can't i have five other flavors of soup right immediately

01:46:02.720 and then obviously i pivot to a brownie then i pivot back to my salad yeah i pivot back to my

01:46:07.600 second soup it's a palate cleanser it's like a restaurant of all my favorite things like it's

01:46:12.880 salad soups carbs yep no meat any no protein at all no protein no protein at all not one me choking

01:46:20.160 because i'm getting like choked up thinking about sweet plantation and how much i miss it i can smell it

01:46:24.880 i can smell it and the trays the little food trays they had i can't believe you're a soup plantation

01:46:30.480 stand that's why i said you go in the tattoo shop what if they all gasp like they did in here that was

01:46:35.360 so validating that was one of the greatest moments of my life that was community that was amazing that's

01:46:42.000 what it's all about that's what it's all about a soup plantation gasp that was a gasp akin to like

01:46:48.000 me watching heated rivalry with my friends and just oh we didn't even kiss it was that was really nice

01:46:55.680 that is it that that was so nice i'm so we're literally the same person i think we were born in
