Cheers. Cheers. Welcome to the Hatsome Pops. Oh my God. Oh my God. I'm fortune-feeds there. I'm Tig No Taro. I'm May Wharton. And we're together in person. We are for the second time this week. This is incredible. This feels wild. This feels like we are all just so like, I don't know, some patico right now. Yeah, go to YouTube or Hulu. Yeah. And I'm fortunate just did with her hands. I did this. Yeah. You are doing this. I don't know. I don't know why. That's a perfect represent. Yeah, that's what's happening. We're very connected at the moment. Yeah. It's, it never fails to be Uber connecting in person. Yeah. That's why we held hands. Yeah. Just to feel it. Yeah. Just to feel your pheromones again. It was electric. We saw each other this week because we had our live show in LA. The Netflix is a joke festival. And that was awesome. Yeah. And when we say this week, we mean two weeks ago. Two weeks ago. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But in real life, it was wild. I think that might have been, I was thinking like the biggest show I've ever done. What do you mean? Numbers wise. How many people are in that place? It would, that was about, was it 1800? Oh, in a 1900? Yeah. No, no. I told everybody to stay there. I think maybe 2000. I don't know. I've been telling you it was five thousand. I lost it five thousand. I think that was 3000. Oh, okay. I take it all back. Yeah, we have 3000. Yeah. 1800. Okay. That was just a baby. But it never fails. It felt big. It felt big. And I'm always like, you guys are cool as cucumbers. You're like, to go out with nothing and just chat. I'm in awe. I became like a clown. I was doing like physical comedy that I've never done. I didn't even pick up on it. What were you doing? What were you doing? I really don't, and you know, a lot of people like to say that it means that you don't care. That's not true at all. No, you're like I'm home. I just, I have faith. I know that I've lived through everything so far in my life. When the three of us always find things to talk about somehow. I know. I know. It always goes off in some direction. - The direction we could never anticipate. - Well, it was so nice also having our guests really reiterate, like, well, first of all, they were really great guests. - They were a small acumen and Britney snow from the Honeywell. - Yeah, and then they were also pointing out, like, gosh, you guys are just so perfectly different. you know, and just bring such a different vibe and energy to the show. Yeah. And, and I think I just have faith that will bring it. Yeah. It was fun. We talked to them for a long time. They were, they were delightful and funny and so cool. They were so up so far. Yeah, they were sick. They were we're handsome outfits. - They were both wearing suit. - Oh my gosh, yeah, they both showed up and suit. - It was stunning. - And then I thought, all that does make sense because, you know, our picture is this is suits. - And then I showed up and fortune pointed out a few times that I dialed it in. - You were in your most casual outfit. - It was the most casual I've ever seen you. - That really was your most casual outfit. - I'm a pretty casual person. - That was pretty casual. - Like these shoes are super smart. - Yeah, those, see the, - Where were these? - Okay, well, I had a day today. But, yeah. Anyway, I'll wear a suit or a dress next time. - Oh, dress, please. - Oh, we should do a dress night. - Oh my God. - And had Katie Lang on who started in that kind of, remember Katie's early days of wearing dresses? - Oh, she wore dresses? - Yes. - I've only ever seen her post-dress face like. - No, she used to, it was such a obvious rebellion. - I assumed to her look and vibe. So she'd wear cute little dress, like cowboy dresses and western dresses. - Oh my God, awesome dresses. - Yeah, when was I showing you why? - I don't know if I could speak. - Would you do it in a, maybe not a live show, but here? - I mean, for a laugh, I'd do it, but I'd be, - I don't-- - For a what? - A lot. - A laugh. - A laugh. - Is that a laugh? - Are you joking? - I said that weird on purpose. - Oh, okay. - I wasn't sure if-- - I think that's an Atlanta Johnstonism for a laugh. - Oh, okay. - I don't know if I could, I think I'd enjoy it and then like after five minutes, I'd be like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - But do you remember that photo shoot? - Rip it off. - We could rip it off. - You could rip it off. - You can rip it off against me. - Do you remember, you probably won't specifically remember this the way I do, but when Brad Pitt did a photo shoot in a dress it was the hottest, it was like this little dress and yeah, so maybe I could do it like that. Absolutely. Yeah. But where were you on? When was the last time you guys threw on a gown? The last time I wore a dress was when I played Joan Jett's mother in the runaway. And I told you the you got cut? Well yeah, I got cut, but more incredibly when they knocked on my trailer to bring me to set and I showed up at the door, my trailer, the woman that was taking me in the van. She goes, "No, she laughed." Yeah, and I go, "Oh, and she's like, sorry, I'm just really familiar with you, so this is a lot to process because I had a wig on too." Wow. And dress. Maybe I'll dig up that picture. I have a picture of me with Kristen Stewart and Joan Jett. Oh, you gotta get that pick out. I would love to see. - And I have boobs at the time. - Whoa. - Like it was actual tick-boot, tingle-bitties. - Tiggy tits. - Tiggy tits. (laughing) - What about you? - Well, you know, I do my character Brenda where I'm in a one-piece bayonsuit. That isn't count, but it's very rare. - That's true. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. But when I'm in character, it feels very natural. - Right. - But a dress itself might have been, - I'm picturing it and I like it. I filmed something in Austin. I want to say 2016 and they had me wear a long dress and big dangly earring. - Oh my God. - Oh, wait, no, I take that back in Fubar. They made me wear, I think they made me wear something girly. - Oh my God. - Something girly redress. - It's always, well now that I think about it, it was a girly pants suit. It wasn't a dress, but did not the same. - I know, it's not. But if I do any dress, it's usually a character type thing. Last time I wore a dress for real, was when I was a journalist, and I covered the Oscars. - And you wore a gown all over it? - Yeah, my gams were showing. I have a picture of that. - For James Marie, I'll get that. - I'll have a posted on socials. - Oh my God, my gams were gamin. - And did you know you were homosexual? - I did, but I was only out at that point. point, maybe to your dress, like a year or two. Yeah. I think you. I think I don't know more about as a character in my teens, like that was the last time for real. And then in, in feel good, my character had to put one on. I had to. I wrote it, but I hate it. I was so stressed. And then the director, I found out luckily in time that she was going to have the whole crew wear dresses to make me feel more comfortable. And I more comfortable and I'm going to go. I was like, oh, that's where it's gonna make it way worse. I nipped that in the bud. You just, 'cause you just wanted it to just be like a non-thing. - Yes. - But I was freaking out about it, yeah. - Speaking of nipping things in the bud. - Yeah. - I years ago thought it was nipping it in the butt, like if a dog bit-- - That makes sense. - I can totally see that though. - Yeah, that makes more sense. - Yeah. - Just nipping in the butt. - Did you know 'cause Mullen Akerman grew up in Toronto. So then I posted the pictures from the live show and then my friend message me and went, she went to North Toronto High School. That's where I went. - No. - I went for six months to North Toronto High School. - Yeah, I didn't even get to talk about that. - We were, are you the same age? - No, she was older, but she was in my friend's sister's year. - Oh. - Which is wild. So, yeah. - You know, to say Mullen's maybe around my age, I think. - Yeah. - I got, I wanted to have a little, I kept trying to have a little side combos and forget it. - I know. I really didn't want to be able to-- (laughing) - Especially when you found out Mullen was from Toronto, you were like, "Really?" - I mean, "Really?" - Yeah. - Yeah. - It's getting lost in Toronto. - Yeah. - Yeah. - We had a number of their hunting wise fans came to the show, they were rabbit fans in those girls. We showed up to the show and there was like eight girls outside and I was like, "Man, "people are real excited for the show." This was like a side gator, something. - Yeah, like 20. - By the alley. - By the alley. - Yeah. - We're real excited now. - They're the same time and they couldn't-- - It got a little bit less about me and I was like, "Yeah, excuse me, could you get out of the way?" - Yeah. - And then I was like, "Oh, they're here for them, okay." - Yeah. - So it was very funny. - Yeah, yeah. - Really puts in your place. - It really does, but yeah. - Yeah, that was fun. - I loved it. - We, while then when I arrived, all eight of those girls went nuts. - Screw you. - They were fainting. - Yeah, they were fainting. - Yeah. - Have you ever fainted from excitement? - Oh, I don't know that this would be excitement, but I did fainting the middle of a gay bar in Paris. - That sounds like excitement. (laughing) - I was like, I was living in Spain at this time. I went to go visit my friend Brian in Paris. He took me to a gay bar but it was like, kind of in a basement, it was really hot and it was packed. And it was like, they had like a Mr. Paris competition. So dudes and speedos and stuff. - Which I don't mind a guy in a speedo. - I don't mind a guy out of a speedo. - Right, they're beautiful, some beautiful guys out there. - Yeah, I love it. - And we were just like watching the competition and they'd say, I know, I'm like on the ground. - Oh my god. - And he said that my knees buckled and that I just passed out. - No, I heard this story. - I thought about it forever. But I guess it was so packed that like my fall was like, kind of gently like, but he's greased up. All these gays just kind of broke my fall. And then I came too and my friends laughing hysterically. And I realized what happened and he got me up really quick. And we run out of the bar and just are crying, laughing, walking out of this bar. And we went and got a crave after, so. - I mean, yeah, you fainted from all these speedos. - I guess I was so excited about these videos. - It was like, yeah, like a Paris magic mic situation. - I feel like people used to faint, like Beetle Mania, like that, it used to be more of a thing. I want to do it on the pod at some point in this episode. I'm gonna. - Well, I bet that was a case because back then they just weren't exposed to much. - Do you know excitement? - Yeah. - So their bodies may have just been in such shock that they were like scary movies and stuff. - Yeah, the extra stuff you put a few kin and freaking out. - But we're just desensitized now. - Or like when Elvis moved his hips for the first time, everybody was just fainted. - Not to bring up what's his name, who? - The movie I saw for his gum. - Oh, yeah. - But that's how Elvis learned how to dance. - Oh, from Forrest Gump. - Oh, yeah. - Do you remember that? - I forgot his movie. - I saw him just in it for the first time. - Yeah, so this is my only reference point now. (laughing) - Nice to meet you. - Yeah, sure. (upbeat music) - I have some really interesting news. - Oh, great, great. - Got rid of Instagram. - You did? - Whoa, yeah. - What made that happen? - Well, I went to this of, well, just to back up, I was believe it or not. I have never, the met, the met gal, has never been on my radar. - Okay. - I, not familiar. - I assumed as much. - Okay, but you didn't, did you know it existed? Or you hadn't really? - It sounds familiar, but it's just, it's something that, it's just like, but there's so much political. - Right, with the Amazon of the world. - Rumbling around this one. - Yeah. - So much that I was seeing, and I became very familiar with the met situation, and the political, I was like, what is this event? What is the meaning of it? What is the politics going on that I'm looking at people? And I'm like, oh, well, why is this person? And then I started to feel like. - Oh, like sucked you in. - Well, yeah, I was like, why am I even looking at this? - Yeah, right. - This is not something that is my genuine interest. - And you didn't seek it out. - Didn't seek it out, you served up to me. And I, and I, I felt like a tool. - Yeah, because now you're having a physiological response of like, yeah, and I'm like, and I'm like, having these conflicted ideas about these people and this thing, like, you know. And that's not to take away from any sort of politics around it, or any point of view somebody might have, all for it, all for the discussion. - Yeah. - But I didn't like, what a tool I felt like. - Yeah. - Because I walked right into what Instagram was wanting from me. - Oh, yeah. - So that happened. Then I went to this festival where I was talking about the documentary. And before that happened, I was talking to a very well-known news correspondent person who shared with me how deeply, deeply into social media her child was. - Oh, God. - I mean, that's a big thing. Yeah, they're sort of gonna make laws, not America, but elsewhere they're making laws about ages and stuff. - Yeah. - And there was something in our conversation and something in the look in her eyes that I really felt so like, ugh. - Yeah. - And I left there, and I just went, good, I. And it started this chain reaction of thinking about relationships that I only have on social media. - Yeah. - How much I've enjoyed looking at cute animals. - Oh, yeah. - But what's even better? - That is fun. - And then going to animal rescue. - Yeah. - True. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And so it started me on this whole spiral. And as I said to Stephanie, I go, maybe I'll be back on and I'll be promoting myself like crazy in a couple of days. - Yeah. - But right now, I really am interested in what this is awakening. - Yes. - Okay, I'm. - But it started from the gala. - This is very gala. - Cool. - What is that connecting with for you? - Just that. - Also, if I can say-- - Yeah, please. - I was on a panel talking about the documentary, which is, look, I had my own wake up in 2012, and you hope those things stay with you. And then here I am working on a film around somebody who's having an awakening. - Yeah. - And then-- - About being present in the world. - About being present. And then I'm like, on a press tour talking about it. And then I'm like, have I really learned the lesson? - Yeah. - You know? And so, and I'm not saying I have haven't that I have this figured out. It's just something I want to follow and see how it feels. And I want to challenge myself. - Please challenge me to, I'm, it was connecting for me. It was coming up for me is I'm like, really in awe, 'cause I'm like, I want to be vegan. I want to go, I want to get rid of Instagram. I say these things all the time, like my assistant, for my birthday got me a brick that blocks your phone from all these things, 'cause apparently I'm saying so much. God, I'm addicted, it's my sleep's bad, it's so miserable, it's so dark on there. And I know it's bad for me, but then-- - Wait, what's a brick? - Oh, it's like, I actually don't know, I haven't learned yet, but you put it on your phone, and I think it disables it for a certain amount of time, or something like that. - It's like a thing you, you can put like on your fridge, and it's like, you almost like tap your phone with it, and then it will like disable your phone for a certain amount of time, so you can lock yourself in your phone. - I didn't know that was a thing. 'Cause my, my problem is, then I'm like, well, I'm in a shame spiral about it, and then that's not doing me any good. So then I try to like, oh, the regret about it, and just do it in moderation, 'cause I do really, I actually like staying in touch with people that I don't normally, and for work, it's so like being on tour and stuff, it's so there is like a sense of community sometimes, but yeah, all those things you're saying, I deeply connect with them, I know I'm so addicted. - And look, I might find I get halfway down this road of exploring what this woke up in me and be like, "Oh, this isn't manageable." - Or there's like a way to do it that's better. - Maybe. - You also need it for career stuff at times. - Yeah. - But I was also thinking like, okay, I have projects and it's fun to announce them, but it's like, I also don't need to. You know what I mean? - Right. - It's not, I was really trying to get in touch with, do I really need, like, if I need to share something with somebody, we'll call them now. - Yeah, but I mean, really. But also people will see me in the TV show or the movie or you know what I mean, and I don't know. I don't know. It's just something I'm exploring. - It's a new journey. - Yeah, it's I'm exploring it. I'm interested in this feeling and I've had certain signs that have bubbled up before this where it just something didn't feel right or congruent. And I just thought, especially it hit me like a ton of bricks. And then I just thought, I'm just gonna do it. I'll live through this too, you know? - Well, he was posted, 'cause I-- - I can't. (laughter) - No, he was posted, he was in tech. - Yeah, I'll let you know. - 'Cause the thing about the Matt Gaul is super interesting, 'cause I feel the same where I'm suddenly like, all these people I love and I have weird feelings about it and I kind of wish I didn't even see it. - But it also leads into the thought of, sure, you can have conflicted ideas of these choices, but also I'm not living a perfect life. - Yeah, yeah. - Everything I'm doing is not lined up and congruent with my thoughts and feelings and political beliefs. And so that's part of the wake up of people who want to do good, people are complicated and where is the gray? And 'cause you said before, or we've talked about it's, yeah, with social media when that becomes the metric of how political someone is, you don't know what they're doing in there, but it's like, oh, who, that person didn't post that thing or didn't share that thing. - Yeah. - And that doesn't actually reflect what they're doing. - You could be doing something. - Yeah, boots on the ground, donating cash and giving back in other ways. And that's just one way to get your voice out there is through social media and of course it's massive, but it also becomes a junkyard yet part of what the person I was talking to was saying, you don't remember what you've seen, what you've read, and that's in your brain. - And it translates to other parts of your life where you're not fully clocking because of your. - Yeah, I mean, it is designed to be wildly addictive, like it's. - And especially to kids whose brains are not developed yet. - Oh man, I know. - Even more addictive. And what I've noticed with the young people that they said that it gives them a false sense of community. - Yeah. - So they think they are connected. - Yeah. - But they're not hanging out with each other. - Yeah. - Outside of school and so not, of course every kid. - Right, sometimes. - But there's a number of kids who think they're being in touch with their friends 'cause they talk to them on these game headsets or on the social media. - Yeah. - They are having conversations just all through tech. - Yeah. - But they are not hanging out in person. - Well, in part of it is that you're not seeing an in-person facial response that is connecting you to human to human that I think is really interesting 'cause you're seeing it just on a flat screen. - And you think you're saying where I'm like, oh, that's part of how I stay informed 'cause I do learn about world events on Instagram, but that's true. - But then how can I trust what I'm seeing? Like I should be informed in other ways. I should be reading what I'm seeing. - But that's the other thing is how do you trust what's popping up? - Well, I was about to say, that's become harder and harder. There are so many articles popping up. Where I'm like, really? That happened. - Yeah. - And then I go to the comments and they're like, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, I'm like, oh my God, like." - And is it really, hey, hey, or is it people just saying, "That's, hey, hey, hey," and so it becomes so confusing. And I think I've said, like part of this crack in me, like I think I've said on the podcast where I go to post something and I'm like, who am I talking to, like what am I doing? - Yeah. - Like, what am I, I'm like, "Hey, look at me." - Yeah. - Sometimes you are real cute and funny on there. - Sometimes. - Yeah, you really are. - But I'm also, it reminds me of like one time when my first comedy special came out years ago, friends of mine had a party for me. - Yeah. - And I was talking to my friend during the premiere of my special, and she shushed me. - She goes shush, shush, shush. - And I was like, "But I'm here right now." - Like for that, I filmed that months ago. - Yeah. - Anyway. - I like it. - 'Cause it makes, even having the conversation, I think it's good 'cause it makes you be honest with yourself about like, yeah, what am I actually getting from it? Like, when I go to look at people's pages, am I looking at my best friends pages or am I looking at someone I hadn't argued with a year ago 'cause I'm curious what they're up to in a kind of high school way. - For sure. - Like it feeds a weird part of you 'cause it's designed to do that. - Yeah. - And again, I might be back full throttle. Like no one's ever seen me tomorrow. - I'm pushing to tomorrow. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And Thomas comes out. - Yeah. - Yeah. - I may. But I'm just, I'm curious about this road. - Yeah, that's cool. - You're going with your, how you're feeling right now? - Yeah. - Yeah. - Anyway. - That's cool. - I thought I would share that. - That's an interesting turn of events. - I think I just, my first step is gonna be to, I just don't need to, I wish phones had a thing that would detect when you're scrolling. - I think they do have a thing on there where you can limit your, in the settings where you can limit your usage. - Oh, okay. And it informs you, like you set how much you want to see in a day and when you've reached that limit, it tells you, now whether or not then that's up to you to be like, okay, reach my limit, phones down, but it does at least make you aware. - Yeah. - So you could look into that. It's in the settings. - Maybe we could have Wellness Weekend. - Yes. - This is it. - I'm so going home, I'm like name the day. And 'cause yeah, put our phones away. - Are you really? - Yes. - Like for how many days would you have a Wellness Weekend? - How long is a Weekend? - As long as a Weekend. - Yeah, that's what, two days. - Is it a long Weekend? - Friday night 'til Sunday evening. - Oh, okay. - I'll do that. - Okay, I'm free all of August. - And fortune, where are you on the interest line? (laughs) 'Cause we'll put our phones away. - I mean, I'll try my best. - But would you actually show up to Wellness Weekend? - Yeah, if you guys were serious about it and it was a plan. - What if we promise that we'll do content for the pod there and we'll be? (laughs) - Because we get pretty angry. - And we're all posted on my new account. - Your secret account. - I mean, the only thing I would want is to maybe like year vegan, but I would probably want cheese. (laughs) Like a shark, I don't need the meat part of a Shurikudri board, just a cheese blade. - I love that it's like, can I get a wheel of cheese? - Yeah. - It's like you're okay with me eating a brick of cheese. - And would you be open to trying to meditate and journal and watch the sun come off. - I'm a journalist. - And share your feelings. - Oh, I would share feelings. - Don't touch me. (laughs) - I would share feelings easy. - Okay. - I have no problem sharing feelings. - Great. - And what is it? - I, it's a love pinda paper. - Oh, you don't. - I think it's tired. - But guys, do you know what's oddly the most fun thought to me? - What? - Is really waking up to watch the sunrise. - Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I want that. - Okay. - Fortunately, I've been waking up much earlier. - Yeah. - So that is not too far off. - Mm-hmm. - What if you catch us? - Sneaking out. - I wake up a nice sneaker. I'm going to the coffee shop. - Yeah. - Can I have a little sneaker coffee? - Yeah. - Can I have decaf? - I'm going to a sneaky sneaker roll. - No, no. - A sneaker roll. - You can have a sneaker on wellness week. - Yeah. - I know of that. - This is terribly terribly gone. It's gone sideways already. - Yeah, I know. - I'm going to salad. (laughing) - Or just going to come and journal and eat a salad. - And smoothie, as long as there's not berries in it. - Well, we could do baked potatoes. We could barbecue. - Wait, it's baked potatoes. - Absolutely. - Yeah. - May I promise we can barbecue a baked potato? - Well, that. - No problem. - But I wouldn't want sour cream on it. - I know that's not a big one. - No, listen. Listen. - It would be a real gesture of like, 'cause I know we're also busy. So. - Here's the other thing. We could each orchestrate our wellness weekends. - Oh, right. - No, our different wellness. - Like what we want. And then like, this side of the group, what it will into. - No, we could have three different wellness weekends. (laughing) - It's nine days. - Oh my God. - I have to eat sausages and cheese. - I would have never made you go non-veg. - It's me. - I would never make you go non-veg. thing that I just want to say really fast. And I was talking to Stephanie about today as far as like social media, taking on things, taking in things that you're not wanting and seeking yourself. And then I was realizing also in the bigger picture of life that I'm trying to cram and wedge in places I actually find real joy in life around the stuff that isn't bringing me joy. And so if you, my plan right now is to clear out the complications that are not bringing me joy so that the priority, and I know this is, it's like a dream world, but for whatever I have control over to make conscious decisions of, I do want to, like our son goes and takes an art class in Korea town on the weekends. And whenever I go, he has so much joy, and I was like, man, I would love to take an art class here too. You know? Not because I'm an artist. I'm definitely craving a routine like that, like a weekly dinner with the same five people in our biweekly or whatever. Yeah. It's kind of creating community free stuff. Yeah. Yeah. I've been thinking about that. Consciously. Yeah. I had lunch with two of my oldest friends from LA in that we've been friends for 20 years. And I'm like, I want more of this, you know, like we just sat there for like almost two hours and sat there. And don't you feel like you're trying to cram the good into the stuff that doesn't feel as good as that? Yeah. And I'm just like, God, why don't we do this? Yeah. More we just sat there outside of the. That's amazing. The restaurant and just chatted. And yeah, it was. It was great. And then I made me realize, like kind of I'm always traveling, I know I'm working. And I'm like, what is my community now because my life has changed so significantly in the last year. It's like, what does this look like going forward? And you have a. I'm so brilliant. You have like a whole new map to create. Yeah. And, uh, and house. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. That too. I feel like I'm still in the mindset of like saying yes to everything. But yeah, and, and I'm so grateful and lucky and that, but then yeah, I am, I'm, I'm, I'm feeling it. Yeah. Yeah. You're seeking something and it's obvious because you've brought it up a lot on the podcast, not too much. Have I? No, I'm just saying you have brought it up. Just that you're seeking. Yeah. You're seeking. And nature and routine. Yeah. You've mentioned that. Have I? Yeah. This is what therapy is. It's people going, oh, you've said that before. That's it. And you go, oh, did I? Yeah. And that's where I'm going back and connecting these dots that I noticed where I was saying things like, I don't want to post that I don't even know who I'm talking to. Right. Right. You know, I, it started to feel confusing. Yeah. Um, anyway, it just was something that I wanted to share that I thought I love it. You might be interested in. I love it. Yeah. I have this, it's so embarrassing that I know, no, it's not embarrassing. These things are designed to be addictive. We're just little, little people flopping around. Yeah. But like that I know the things that would make me feel like drinking more water, sleeping eight hours a night, not be on my phone as much. Like I, I know the things, but it's just so hard to enact them. But I felt, I, when I lived with the child, I did, I, my lifestyle was a lot slower, time move slower. It was really nice. So I know that's something I want because it does force you to be present or even just living with the partner or like, yeah, yeah, I'm left in my own devices. I will watch a lot of survivor. I watch a lot of reality. Yeah. A lot of turkey corn dogs. Yeah. Frozen food section. Oh my God. My fridge. That's what you do. Currently. Yeah. Turkey corn dogs are good though. No, I'm living alone. Yeah. You're just kind of like, I don't need a cook. Sit down meal. I'm just going to grab a turkey corn dog and put it in the air fryer. I'm not great. I'm not great at a sit down meal. Really? No. I'm eating on the fly. Yeah. That's something I'd love to do differently. Yeah. Well, we have, you know, things to think about, you know. Well, this is all going to come up and well this weekend. Like we're going to be journaling about our, our dreams and aspirations. I can't tell you how much I would really love to do it. Well, I was thinking of getting that place in Arrowhead again. It's so beautiful. We can also use my office. You couldn't wait to get out of that. You like got there and are already planning to go home and come back. I had to come back. And in order, like, I ordered a lot of stuff out there. $500 with Amazon stuff. That was really great. Which brings us back to the mat. I know. Oh my God. Full circle. I know. I know. Should we get to our guest? Yeah. It's a good one. It is. Today's question is brought to you by AT&T. Today's question asker is a writer and journalist and the former first lady of California. She anchored the NBC nightly news and won a pee body for her reporting. She won two Emmys for producing the Alzheimer's project. Her award-winning digital publication is Maria Shriver's Sunday Paper. Maria Shriver is asking today's question. Hi. Yes. Hey handsome. Hey handsome. It's Maria Shriver. Hey handsome. I like saying that. I actually say that to my boys. Hey handsome. Anyway. Okay. Hey handsome. I digress. So thank you for having me on. Thank you for asking me to think of a question for you. So before I get to a question because I have so many questions. I ask questions for a living. I ask questions of myself every day. So like for me to have one question for you, you know, it's kind of almost impossible. So Lauren, who I work with, she gave me some of these question ideas. If you could interview someone dead or alive and then ask them one question, who would you interview and what would you ask them? Wow. That's really good. Like interview dead or alive. She looks great. She does. She looks good. That is great. She's looking handsome. Yeah. That's a charismatic person. Yeah. Wow. Well, you can, you know, tell that she is a pro asking questions. Yeah. She says she's, she's the real deal. Oh. Yes. Seriously. Yeah. And I think she's also, you know where she stands on most things. Yeah. I would say. But she's also a reasonable human being is what I find her to be. Isn't the bar so low that we're like, and she's a reasonable human being, because you never know. I know. I know people are not. But it's just, I really love a reasonable human being. Like someone who's open to amending their ideas or just who's like, or at least hearing someone. Yeah, curious about the people and, yeah, that's cool. Yeah. Getting to the bottom of things. It's a really, it's like a, a classic question almost, but I don't think we've had it, but it's such a. I know. I thought the same thing. Yeah. But it's very good. You can interview anyone. Was it dead or alive? Dead or alive? Who would you talk to? What? The band, dead or alive? Is that who you know? No, that's not the band. Dead or alive. That's by Jovey. Oh, I know. And that was really good. The way you went up with a live. Thank you. Yeah. Now I'm just trying to compete. Yeah. That was good. Well, what about this? I think I know my answer. OK. And I'm surprised by my answer, because I, I'm such a, like, fan of pop culture and, like, idolize all these people, but I think I'm going with my paternal grandfather who I never met. It was my dad's dad, because I feel like my parents are still kind of mysteries to me in a lot of ways. All of ours are, because you don't know what their childhood was like. And I've heard such great things about him, and he was an actor and really funny and- Was he related to your grandmother who's an agent? He was her wife. He was her- Uh, he's annoying. He was a husband. He was her husband. He was her husband. He was her wife. I know we're really open and flexible here on sexuality and gender. He was her husband. Sorry. Yeah. Yeah, my dad's dad. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And he was- he had these, like, big, bushy eyebrows and he's- Love it already. Yeah, and he was, like, a character actor. He'd pop up, have, like, little parts and things, like- And whenever I see him in something, there's, like, four clips that I have, and his comic timing is so good. He's, like, Peter Sellersy, you know, like, Alex Guinness, like that old school. What a shame if you had those eyebrows and had terrible delivery with your comedy. Oh, I know. Yeah. What do you do? You go pluck up, I guess. I guess you- Shave him off. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I think- I think him, because my mom, when she met my dad was, well, she's Canadian, she came over to England and she was really self-conscious, like, all these kind of British people, and they all went to good universities, and we're all kind of verbose and, like, look, sort of, look down their noses at, like, the Commonwealth a little bit, or just, like, you know, but, apparently, he was so kind and just, like, anyone who walked in the room, we'd make them feel really comfortable and- Love it. Yeah. I want to know what my dad was, like, and just- Yeah. Yeah, chat to him. I know he was a very heavy drinker, so, yeah, I'd sit maybe with a scotch and- Yeah, eyebrows was a heavy drinker eyebrows was a very heavy drinker. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you'd have to be in those You got it. Well, and also that's hard to in face Yeah, you gotta sit down with a drink. Yeah, you know, yeah, if they even they might have made him drink You know, it might have been what pushed him to drink the brows Yeah, he might have been like this is a lot is there a cultural or Historical person you would want to interview Napoleon. I have a lot of questions. Oh, yeah I Love to see me something He'd speak he would speak French, but Joe would have a translator maybe yeah, yeah, I'm sure he would never speak English I don't think he did the breath so much, right? Well, that would be a cool person for you to interview Yes, we'll translate her. Yeah, the visual is pretty good. Yeah, man old Napoleon But he didn't like when people showered he loved stinky people. Yeah, so I'd have just yeah, don't shower That doesn't it's not gonna fly with me. Did you shower twice a day? Oh, yeah, yeah Does she she showers my Gucci? Yeah, can you clean my good? Yeah, my coach is clean I did go to the Gucci doctor this morning She said she said my my coach was great. I went to the doctor today, too No, no, oh yeah, I mean, oh listen. I wasn't something I was looking forward to but it wouldn't yeah, right fine That's and when she's when she was down there and give me a thumbs up. No, she Was pretty happy that she was like feeling good about what clean is a whistle Can I change my answer and say I'd interview you're gonna Who would you interview fortune? I so on a person I have personal and then Historical I would want to interview my grandfather because I never met him. He died in an expensive room I'm almost 17 and he was a very prominent contractor and He built a lot of things around North Carolina like schools and churches and houses that were really beautiful and he built the house my grandmother lived in and so I just have a lot of questions because I don't know him or that End you'd fill in stuff about your mom and like what do you know about his personality? No, I don't know a lot about him Anything about his eyebrows. Yeah, I think he's very charismatic. I think he's very successful and he and my grandmother were very Filmed-thropic in but then didn't you say now it's coming back to me that then after he passed Then there was no money, but there was a nice house or something there was yeah, well he left them a lot of money But things happened over there, you know, yeah shopping sprays Shopping sprays and then I would be curious to interview my grandmother's mom because she was the Treasurer of Rutherford County in North Carolina, which was very unusual for a woman in those times She was a widow and she when she was campaigning she had put her kids my grandmother Being one of them in a donkey cart and would go around handing out flyers for her campaign And the mid-around town were like pissed about it because they felt like she was trying to use her being a widow and her kids to make people feel sorry for But she kept them she kept getting re-elected and kept the position for you know for a long time And I just thought that was so cool that yeah a woman in those days because this is my grandmother's mother So it's your great grandmother? Yes, but that was a long outside. I know it is You know the deal it may have been with women and I think that's so badass That's kind of questions for her and to know more about my grandmother as a kid And then historically I mean it would be kind of interesting to get to talk to Jesus. Yeah, just because Think of all the conflict that has surrounded the Bible. Yeah, religion. I know this is news to you But I would want to be like what do you think about all this? Yeah, and like what did you actually say? What did you mean by this? Yeah, what happened in this scenario? Yeah, what about? What in the Bible has been like misinterpreted or Or you know, it was also like a game of telephone in the Bible Of course it's 400 years. Yeah, so I think that would be a pretty good interview That'd be a good get oh my god if we could get Jesus on handsome hot Jesus We need to interview you because we have some question. Have you seen that guy that looks like Jesus and Los Angeles and Hollywood? He's well, he's he's dead. No, he's dead for a while. Oh We but there's so many guys that look like Jesus, but there's a guy very prominent one for really many more robes Had long hair and a long hair and what would you do just walk around? He wasn't crucified. No It wasn't actually made this, but he did die this and it was a couple years ago. Oh, that's sad But he used to go to the comedy store a lot. Yeah, he was he was just like a Is it cool guy? Yeah, I assumed I hadn't seen him because I got married and had kids. Never saw anyone again. Yeah Well rest in peace Kevin. Yeah, Kevin's in heaven. That's right. My ex-girl friend wrote a song called that Kevin's really yeah about some machine. Yeah, no way about her friend's friend named Kevin who passed away and she wrote Kevin's in heaven. Oh Kevin's in heaven on that run so far we got grandparents Napoleon and Jesus Napoleon actually is second only to Jesus in the amount of books that have been written about him because he's such a divisive Really complex figure. Yeah. We don't have a lot of questions for them. Yeah. Yeah, but I'd probably go blank and be like, how are you? But I don't do you think Jesus would want to be on camera or he would be like, this is off the record. I think Jesus liked a bit of attention. I mean he must he was given speeches. Yeah, like he was he was out there. Yeah I think he would have been like great at the message. I want to ask who I gaze. Yeah. I would be curious. Yeah. To see what his thoughts were. He you know, he could be like, no thanks or he could be like, love is love. I feel like it'd be that. That was his whole message. I mean, that's what I believe. Yeah. He was friends and he was all he was friends with all the outliers. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, he was a rebel. Mm-hmm. So I think that'd be a good get. Mm-hmm. Uh-huh. Yeah. How about you? Put him on the handsome pod. Yeah. Yeah, what would you go? Well, I mean my personal one. Uh-huh. I mean, my mother. Yeah. My mother. My mother died so unexpectedly. And I, you know, yeah, you didn't have time to ask all those questions. Yeah, it's that sad story of like, God, I thought, I thought, you know, how old was she when that happened? 65. Yeah, man, that's tough. And so, yeah, I have so, especially as I get older and now that I'm married and I'm a parent, yeah, it like really came in big time for me. Yeah, really came in big time. Yeah, you know, I'd be curious to talk to my father, but my father is a little bit of a big talker. Right. And, um, and like you get it, go get off on one, like you'd start talking and be like, okay, we don't have a lot of time for this interview. Um, no, no, like I think up talking things. Yeah, um, yeah, oh gosh, I had to create a character in my TV show One Mississippi. Yeah, there was my father. Yeah. And in that, he was a part of the Mississippi Mafia, right, which my father claimed to be. Right. Remember, I told you, he carried a pistol and a knife in his cowboy. That's possible. Yeah, Fiscal, you know, yeah, um, but sometimes I wasn't quite sure where it was like, if that was true, he, he liked to really, I think, embellish, like I think there were some real parts of his stories. Yeah, but I think there were also, he liked to seem kind of like he was involved in some stuff. Yeah, and he had some stuff going on. Right. And he can't talk about this, but I, I remember just sitting, he surprised me at a show, um, in Virginia, and we went out to high hop at Holgen, and he, and he was telling me all these stories. And, and you can, there's something there, but it was also a little like, um, the little, yeah, just like, just kind of something at where I'm like, okay, what, what is real and what are you embellishing to make a really great story? Yeah. So, but I think more so than anything, my mother, yeah, because of everything marriage and children and family has brought up. Right. Um, and then, I mean, gosh, how great to sit down with Maria Schreiber and just, uh, pick her up right? Yeah. You can do that. Right. Right. I could do that. Yeah. But you know, actually who, um, really pops up for me is, um, I am endlessly blown away by the mind of Emily Saliers. I know. Yeah. That's so funny. Um, as a songwriter, what she does, I think is extraordinary. Yeah. I think it is extraordinary. And I just would love to, I, I could never understand what she does or how she does it. Yeah. Because it is that gift. Yeah, but I'm truly an awe. I'm truly an awe She'd feel the same about stand-up like musician. Well, and she said that before she's like, well, how do you do what you do? Yeah, you know what you do have a lunch where you guys That I like I don't I don't want to talk about me I truly just want to be like I'm a little girl bunch of questions. She I haven't she's like what she's very active She's very humble and she's like commit to like having done In the 13 or a little bit. Yeah, but like I don't like it's so so many people you can write and and look I love a love song yeah, but So much about the world yeah and life and experiences thoughts feelings that yeah that aren't typical obvious. Yeah, themes She'll write about yeah and make it and make it catchy. Uh-huh. Yeah, and I'm just I mean obviously Amy Ray the other part of the indigo girls brings Yeah, the entire other half of this, but I'm just talking from like a Yeah, the poetic side. Yeah of Emily Isn't it fun? Letlessly blows my mind. Yeah, it makes me laugh like what suckers we are for rhyming as human beings like You put a put a sentiment but make it rhyme and people are going to tattooed. It's like oh, it just it stays with you if you're wrong Yeah, it's like it burns it into you. Yeah, but also Sometimes she doesn't rhyme. Yeah So whatever and we're like no thanks. I mean a little more so is up there for me like yeah, just because I I'd want to ask her about spirituality and yeah songwriting and just what then what her 90s was like Yeah, yeah, that would be up there for me. Well, I think we're gonna see Emily moving into even more writing because you know she shared yeah, she named me shared on social media, right? Emily's having some health complications. That's affecting her voice And so they're figuring that out, but yeah, I can see it a world of which she really leans into writing even more Which will be cool to see what she comes out with. I'm here for anything this woman writes Whether yeah, yeah, I'm all in um should we see what Maria has the same? Yeah, well, I probably interview Mary I really thought she was the virgin Mary. Yes, I have so many questions for her. Yes, I have a lot of questions for Mary The very beginning all the way to the very end. I mean I have so many you must have some questions for Mary I don't even know if I can get into all the questions I have for her I hand some. Yeah, Mary would be a good one too. Oh, yeah, get Mary and Jesus. There's a lot of mystery around the That could be your regular weekly dinner. Yeah Mary and Jesus are coming over for spaghetti. Yeah, we dig into things a little bit more each week Yeah, we give them they he turns the water to wine. We got him a little bit. That's nice. Yeah. Yeah Oh, look at that. He'd be a cheap date. You just need one fish, right? He would. Yeah. He doesn't seem like he would eat my fish. Yeah, you fish You could bring the fish. That's right. Yeah. Oh, I used to fish Anyway Uh, well, I have to say complete delight. It absolute delight Never ever isn't a delight to do this in person. Oh, I know in a perfect world.
