This is a headgum podcast. Handsome, childhood friends all mad some part, childhood friends all mad some part. Pretty little episode. Yeah, it's your rose Tignotaro on the pretty little episode I'm sitting here with. Fortune Feamster? I'm Fortune Feamster. Hello, Tignotaro. How are you? I'm alright. I was. Notaro. Yeah, I'm Italian. Well, it's great to see you, Tig. Oh, well, thank you. It's great to see you as well. You know? Yeah. I got a little caught up in our theme song there. Mm-hmm. That's good to see. Just bippin' and boppin'. Yeah, well, with my fingers. And I have heard you're good at fingering. No. Too soon. Too late. Is it too late? Right on time, my friend. It's right on time. I find it hard to kind of pick out our voice. I kind of hear May is the most in the theme song. You know that's so funny. This time when I was listening to it. I was thinking that same exact thing. That May is more pronounced. Know that I could just. I was just listening for like where our voices came in. Wow. I don't usually do sync here. I know. I was like. Because I was like. I hear May's predominantly in the beginning. Uh-huh. And then when the long note goes, I can hear myself and then obviously you at the end. Uh-huh. And I was. I'm not usually one of the theme song plays. Am I paying attention to that? Right. Kind of similarly over here. And then yet today on this pretty little episode, you and I both were listening. And how talented is May writing such an earworm? Very talented. That is quite the catchy tune. It's good. It's real good. I wonder what the song would be like if it was a full three and a half minute pop song. Uh-huh. Like would we go into a whole other chorus that no one saw coming? In a bridge, in a guitar solo. Remember when we wrote that song for our square space? You mean what Thomas did? Thomas wrote a song for us. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. We weren't supposed to say that. No, it's okay. Have we not. I thought we had told people. We haven't. Yeah, we have. Okay. Our hit Christmas song that we sang that one time. Yeah. How does that go? Oh. Uh-huh. Some about "Holly Bubs." "Holly Bubs." "Holly Bubs." "Holly Bubs." "Holly Bubs." "Holly Bubs." Thomas, you and May should maybe write an album. Yeah. "Holly Bubs." "Holly Bubs." Yeah. And then I'll sing the lead, obviously. Of course. And we are already planning ahead this year that we know for sure we're having a "Holly Bubs" show. Yes. Um, so that will be very fun. Indeed. It will be so. It will be so. It will be so. Love a live show and you never know what's going to happen. You never know what's going to happen. You never know who's going to be there if there's going to be anyone. But also will be there. Well. Um, I think we should make. We're not make, but suggest to me that they extend the song into a full on pop song, have a bridge, have a solo, all of it. Okay. We'll pass that feedback along. Yeah. The last time I saw you guys in person, May gave me this golden girls picture that I'm going to try to figure out where it can go on my wall of, um, what do you call these? What memorabilia? Sure. Mm-hmm. I'm glad that May gave that to you because I kind of, like, I've seen the golden girls once or twice, but that would be one of those guests, so I'm like, I don't really know what. No, why are there four older women in shoulder pads in this picture? I would know what to do with that. There's a lot of shoulder pads happening in this picture. Well, it was the 80s, right? I love it. It was in the 80s. Or early 90s, late 80s, early 90s, like 86 into like early 90s, maybe eight. Wow. So you were really a fan. Oh, I love the golden girls. I am a super fan. And did you wear shoulder pads? I sure did. Did you? Well, that was only because my mom dressed me. Oh, right. It wasn't my golden girls influence. It's just that my mom, anytime I had to dress up for something, she would take me to, like, some old lady's store and she would find an outfit. She'd be like, "Oh, my God. This is gorgeous. No, this is, I'm telling you this makes you look slim. It's so feminine." And it would just be like some shoulder pads, like blazer with its long skirt that was like burnt orange, I'm like, "This is awful. It's so funny because it seems like shoulder pads and a blazer feel so masculine. It's so odd that it was a feminine touch that you know what I'm saying? It doesn't feel like, "Oh, I know what to do with a lady put in shoulder pads." That's right. You know, give her some bra and shoulders. It was the times, it just was, that's what was in were shoulder pads. I joked in my stand, especially in salty that I looked like a lawyer who was like, "Let's go litigate, ladies." I also am influenced by that, those kind of ladies, because look what I've been just bought myself. It's in Andy's, and Andy's meant, you know, the little green, are those for elderly women? Well, they're just were like, they're from back in my grandmother's day. They're so good. I used to love those. They're so good. And I was just somewhere where they were for sale and I was like, it's so cool. It's so cool. It seems like those should be for sale. Those feel like they're in a dish for free everywhere. Well, that's where I saw them was, I took my dad out for his 80th birthday, and it's an old school restaurant that's been there for decades in Charlotte. And they had a lot. That is 80. Yeah, both my parents are now. He does not look that. Yeah. He's 80. And then a bowl of these Andy's meant, I grabbed me for, and then I said, this is not enough. In the store, I'm going to buy some of these and I did. Well, look at you throwing money around, and Andy's meant, that feels again, it feels so weird to buy, as weird, as buying those round red and white pinched wheel mitts. Oh, yeah. Like, can you imagine? Right. A store. Mm-hmm. But, like, just a person in the world, nobody should be spending any money on the pinwheel mitts, red light mitts, or, um, Andy's, oh, I'm sorry. I understand what you're saying, but I felt like I couldn't take more than four mitts out of the bowl. That's where you're on. Being judged. No. You said on a recent episode, you don't care what people think of you, and that's what happens when you get older and you eat things like Andy's mints and pinwheel mitts. You're old enough to not care what people are saying or thinking about you. You're right. My mom gave me that speech the other day. Why? Because I, she wanted me to do something I didn't want to do. And I was like, I don't want to drive into that place, and she goes, just do it. I go, it's a private driveway. They don't care. I'm like, but I don't want to. She's like, why do you care? And I was like, why are we having this conversation? That's not a speech, by the way. Well, she was just going on and on about it. I said, they've got cameras. I don't want to be like rolling up into someone's driveway. She want to be like, check out this house. And I'm like, I don't want to just go into a stranger's driveway. I feel a little scared. Yeah. I guess I'm on your side. It feels like people are weird these days with us. Yeah. That's what I said. Yeah, I guess you were in the South too. Yeah. She's like, we're in Belmont. I'm like, yeah, but still. Yeah, yeah. All right. Anyway. Well, should we get to our questions before somebody gets hurt? Hi, handsome. This is Donna, calling from Kingston, Ontario, Canada. And I'm looking for some advice or some suggestions. Okay. So my son is getting married soon. And we're trying to figure out what we want our mother's son dance to be. We know that we don't want anything that's like super slow and sad. Happy. We want it to be fun and upbeat. And that's going to get the crowd ready to get out on the dance floor.
We are both rhythmically challenged, so we definitely need something to be fairly simple. Wondering if you have any ideas of a fun dance that we could do, or if you've been to a wedding, and you've seen something fun and memorable of what that might be? I look forward to hearing your suggestions. Hopefully you can help us plan the perfect dance. Thanks so much, love y'all. Okay, I feel like you are the queen of wedding dances, but I do want to throw in there. I knew you'd have something. If they are open to a tiny version of line dancing, I think that could be really cute. Oh yeah, throwing in a little heel toe docee dough. Yeah, I feel like that's kind of you can make it very basic and pair down, don't you think? Yeah, I mean there's you know it's like kind of the electric slide, which you know about, and then a little kick in of your boot with your hand can be a pretty basic dance move, which is any, it's a crowd pleaser for anyone. Okay, Donna's voice, by the way, sounds way too young to be having. I was thinking of this. Yeah, how old are you Donna? Please write it down. We're dying to know Donna. I had a girl that you don't like, love on her name. Yeah, that's a rich man for me. I've never been the same 17. I know when you look like he was 35. Well, it was Lou Diamond Phillips. Oh, no, I'm talking about the real Richie balance. Oh, okay. Yeah. Oh, you mean when Richie when Lou Diamond Phillips made that movie, he was 17? No, Richie balance. God, 17 when he was a pop star and died. Oh, that's so sad. Anyway, um, I was a weird thing to say on the heels of that. Yeah, two things. Okay. Buddy Holly died and not playing crash. Uh-huh. And his hit song, that'll be the day when you say goodbye, that'll be the day when you make me cry. Yeah, it's about dying. Yeah. Well, thank you for that good button. And do you know his, Donna's like, what's happening right now? I'm trying to get a wedding dance. I didn't really get here. I think Donna should go for an nostalgia. It shouldn't be like a, it shouldn't be like a current pop song and it should not be like a rap song. It should be like a disco type of song or an oldie. Um, and then it could be like, or a waltz is an easy type of dance. So it could, but you know, everyone likes a little fun chore choreography where the, the son and the mom are both like, you know, like the, the worm where you like hold each other's hand and you do your arms like in a worm. And not a wave, the way, a wave, a wave worm. Okay, worms waving. But what if they did the John Travolta and Olivia Newton, John, uh-huh. You're the one who go together or whatever. Oh, we go to you. Oh, we go to you. You're the one that I want. They need to learn. You will be where to mom and son. Oh, yeah, there's a thing in the Tweet show. I would go. I would go with the electric slide. That is like, I revoke my question. I'm trying to think or it could be like, um, a book, a book, a book, a book, a book. It could be, uh, well, this is, this is too slow. I was thinking of going to the chapel and we're gone again. Yeah, but they're singing it to each other. Yes. We're, we're really coming up against a wall here with mom and son. Electric side. But that's like, that's for the group. That's for everybody. They got to bring it. They can start it and then they get the group going, right? Let me Google. No, Blake, let's get Google's help. Best mother, mother, son, wedding. We encourage everyone to ask our advice because we're so good at googling. Wait, I mean, you've mastered it. I've never quite seen any of this. 50 songs and it's, well, what are you? Rattle them all off. Fortunately, just me rattling off 50 songs for the next 10 minutes. Well, for some reason, it's not wanting to come up. It doesn't want Donna to know. Oh, this one has a slow one. A song for mama by boys and men. That one's two. That's too slow. It's mama, mama, you know, I love you. And then it's all about your mom. How about mama? Just killed a man. What are going against it? Oh, my trigger. Now he's good. Okay. So electric side, it is done. I get it started and then it brings everybody in and it brings it all home for the handsome pod. Donna, Google best songs to Google mother. I love that you're suggesting something. All these are slow songs like Fleetwood Mac. Come on now. What, landslide? Yeah, that's too song. You need a song that you can like do like landslide was about cocaine. Choreography, too. I need Donna. Whatever you do, you and your son need to add the worm slash wave. Sorry. Well, all the best to you, Donna and your family and congrats. Did Donna have anything to say? No. Okay. What is our next question? When beneath my wings bad middle of that flare is doing an interpretive dance, Donna. Hi, fortune, May and take. My name is Sydney, middle name, coincidentally Marie. I have to tell you, I've been sitting on this one for a year and thinking about it every single day. Well, when take shared the song that she wrote for her kids about the morning fruit, it got stuck in my head and I found myself on the toilet one morning singing marnin poops marnin poops. I'm just thought you guys might want to know that. Thank you so much. I love your podcast. I've had your marnin poops. Wait, there's no question. There's no question. Tell me just that she sings marnin poops marnin poops marnin poops marnin poops. I've you had your marnin marnin poops. I like it. Sydney, I think it's a great way to my goodness to call in marnin poops marnin poops. You've inspired people to take your marnin fruit song and turn it into something else. And I like that. I like that. Spunk. Sydney, good job girl. Just such an inspiration, our night. Yeah. Fred, you ever know that you're my hero. Don, are you listening? You're everything I wish I could be. Mama. Just killed. All right. Next question. Hey, handsome. This is Emily from Abbling, Texas. And my question is, what links have you gone to to get under your siblings skin? That's hilarious. I'm 55. I was about to say, is there we still doing that? Like, I don't know if anybody I'm trying to get under their skin. Even if I'm under there. It's not on purpose these days. Yeah. Back in the day, for sure. My brother, my brother Jay used to do the thing where he would like put his finger in front of my face. Uh-huh. He'd be like, I'm not touching you. I'm not touching you. And I would be like, stop it. That got under my skin. Real bad because I can feel his negative energy. And what did you do, though? Nothing. You're just, yeah, but you were just so cute. Of course. You're just walking around cute and you couldn't help it. No, I always would try to tell my mom like, mom, Jay's doing this. Mama, price is doing this. Mama. She'd like, stop it. We drove our parents insane. I mean, I drove my brother insane. Um,
Um, I can't even think of specific thing. I mean, oh, even though I liked the TV show, The Waltons, I know it drove him insane. And so we could each pick a TV show to watch. And you would pick that just to make him mad. Well, I, there were other shows that I knew that he probably would like, but I would be like, no, I want to watch The Waltons. And he'd be like, oh, good. Like you drove him insane, you know? Whereas I could have picked, you know, all in the family, or Sanford and Sun. Something like our whole family enjoyed. But I'd be like, no, I want The Waltons. Or Little House on the Prairie. I loved, you know me. I love a bonnet. I love, I love olden days. So that's, that's, you know, that's what I would do. Meanwhile, my brother would pin me down and let a spit dangle down half a hair from my face and then suck it back up. And that's gross. Yeah, but that's really why I'm gay from like, I just hung out with both my brothers recently. Yeah. And I would say we are getting along quite well now. We've, we've had our spats before. Yeah, where somebody, um, pisses the other one off and then they hold on to that, grow too long. Yeah, that's definitely happened, um, and you just, I think as we've gotten older, we are in that light, life's too short mentality. For sure. But I look, I feel like Emily's going to tell us something good. Yeah, let's hear what she's got to say. And my answer is calling in this question, because my sister, Jamie, from Abbling, Texas has been calling in questions and just really, really wants to have her voice on handsome because you all mean so much to her. Oh, but I'm hoping I win. And I hope that really gets under her skin. [LAUGHTER] I guess you won, yeah, really. I don't remember anyone calling in from Abbling. I have a lane like that Ella Langley song. I'd remember. He's from Texas, I can tell. By the way, he's just stepping around for her. Or she's from Texas. And also, but George straight. He don't have any lanes from Abbling. You know, all my exes live in Texas. Oh, my ex. She's living in Texas. Or I'm going through the big deal. I don't mean Dallas. I can't believe what the judge had to tell us. She got the dog. I got the dog. She got the palace. I'm going to go to a country western bar together. I don't even get the dog. But you did get Dallas. I got Dallas, for sure. You got you got Dallas. Well, some lovely questions. Once again, don't forget to submit your questions. And you saw how great we are at advice. So definitely submit that as well. To speakpipe.com/handsupPod. Yes, and also just fined out there. I will be doing a couple of shows in Olympia, Washington, among other places. Go to my website for tickets. Yeah, I'm on tour as well. So I've got about a month left. So check out a bunch of-- I got a bunch of West Coast shows coming up. So L.A. and all those places open.
