Our guest is a mother, but George is a father and my therapist told me that I have to be nicer to you

we've got
my beautiful girlfriend of
Almost nine years eight eight years
Is it close to nine or closer to eight? It's closer to eight. It's closer to eight
Kaleila
I
started to say my last name and we have a guest today that um I
You know
I've known her forever
This next guest I've known her longer than I've known like Mike, you know the people that I kind of hang
You know, she's like she goes way back and she is
Probably one of those
Reliable comedians that I've used in my past. You're I mean in terms of when I need help in terms of the writings
Because in the writings, right? I get flustered
You know, I mean and there were times where I would have I would need quick jokes, right?
Because I was doing some sort of panel show mostly Chelsea lately
And I would call this next guest and she would meet me at like either a coffee bean, right?
The one over there by the can laugh factory, right? And we would do sessions and you were so helpful
I mean you because in that time of my career
I was so desperate and nothing going on and she was just one of those people
That I could always rely on and you know, not only is she a writer
She's one of the best stand-ups in the country. I believe and she's open for me before as well
and she
You know recently was the head writer for the David Spade show
Lights out on the Netflix, but then the pandemic hit that went awry
she was also a producer on the David Spade show, right and
She's written on a lot of things. She's a great stand-up podcaster. She's everything. I've known her the longest
I can't I think she's the one of the longest people I've known in the whole world
Sarah Tiana
You've been on a short list to do this and I don't know why you haven't have we asked you before you asked me once I think and I
um
There was something going on with my family or I was doing something then I and I couldn't make it and I was so bummed because
I've been I mean, I I love both of you. I love this podcast. I love everything you're doing
I can't believe you're actually doing a podcast
And they've committed to something for so I know
I'm like, I have to go see this in person. Yeah, I know it's real and it's not just an Instagram story
I know it's it's you know, it's like, you know, I there's two things that I've committed to in my life three things
Right. I've committed to Kaleila. I committed to this podcast
I committed to stand up, but everything else I've never committed to you can like acting
When you're filming now, I'm just kidding
No, you're so good
I thought you would laugh at that
That was a good job. Yeah
You're so you're just like a naturally talented person. Well, you know, I think I'm just like a weird funny guy
I guess I'm a weird leaf. Mm-hmm. It's a weird guy
From since you've known him the longest yeah
Have you seen an evolution or has he generally been the same? Oh
Oh, yeah, I definitely have seen an evolution of Bobby. I mean when I've I've met you 19 years ago
Yeah, I was thinking about it on the way here
Yeah
When I had first started doing stand-up and you remembered me from mad TV because I had been like a little I had like a
little role on mad TV when I first started and he remembered me and
The first week I have to say I think I did hit on you. Maybe did I hit on you? You never acted on. Oh, yeah
Yeah, maybe I was a be a little flirty in the beginning
I would say that you're flirty and hitting on doesn't translate to women like we don't know that you're doing that's so rude
What I would I would have been into it. No, but I think you're really he's polite and he's not a creep, right?
So sometimes you're yeah, there's always is but because I here's what it's because
What it is what no for me though is what it's I I don't like being rejected
No, but the way you do it to like I remember the first text message. He sent me after our first coffee date. Yeah, yeah
It was really sweet. You said I really enjoy
Hanging out with you. That's it. It wasn't like a yeah, and it was simple. I was like, this is so nice
Does he like me?
Yeah, most guys are like, hey, let me see your note. You know what I mean?
So it's like when you're nude or yeah, also when I'm also when I make love
You mean I'm very Christian about it. I'm very Christian. Yeah, I mean, I'm like put the sheet on the body
No, I only into dark and the dark I cut a hole through the little sheet, right? And I go close your eyes, right?
Then I close my eyes and I put my hands on the mattress like this
I'll do three like very like Mormon pumps. What do I call them Mormon?
Yeah, I do like three quick Mormon pumps and I go, um, I did it
You know, I mean, I relieved myself inside you
Right, and then I go to sleep. You know, I'm very Christian about it. That's creepy
And hey, that really turned creepy. The biggest thing I've ever heard in my life. Yeah. Yeah. No, I mean, I feel like
That's not the Bobby I
Mean I thanked you in my first album
Like you were on like the cover like on the back of the cover
I think like three people like my parents and Bobby. Oh, that's because you made me the comedian
Then I like you would what are they doing anything?
Yes, you did you would make people put me up when I couldn't get stage time anywhere
Yeah, you did a show you would bring me along and you would make them put me up in order for you to go up
And at the time you were on mad TV. I mean, it was like a big deal. Yeah, I was like
This is the cool. Like I can't believe I know Bobby Lee, you know
And yeah, the comedy store was like a whole different story though. So that was that's harder. Yeah
That's a harder killer. Yeah, but you always gave me always you always gave me very blunt and good advice
And I always appreciated that and I think that because though
Um number one at that time, would you say that it was a far more difficult for women?
Yeah, it's just at the store. There was like some sexism going on, right? Was it?
Yes
Yeah, it was just a tad. Yeah, all of it. It was harder and I just feel like you know, you need a champion, right?
Yeah, you know because I view women as like I view I guess a minority maybe
Yeah, well, yeah, yeah, because in a way we are like we are a very small group that you know, um, that also
I would I think like back when I started to like there wasn't really a space for you as a woman to be like to have like a
Lane like and now I feel like certain like women have different lanes like some women are sexual some women are not
Not sexual some are you know sporty like me, you know, like whatever it is and or a lesbian
You know, like they can talk about being married or you know
I felt like there weren't a lot of lanes like it kind of felt like we were all kind of a broad stroke of each other
Yeah, and I feel like you fit in no more with the guys though
Yeah, I think in a weird way well
Also, I remember when I started like all the women I knew in stand-up who no longer do it
So we're just like don't go to the comedy store. It's so hard
They they hate women there and I was like, I wish you wouldn't told me that because now that's the only place I want to go
up
Like that's the competitor in me. And so I would actually Chelsea gave me the best advice
She was like just go be funny and leave. Oh just a handler. Yeah. Yeah, eventually. You'll be funny enough
They'll ask you to stay and that's exactly what happened. I wasn't trying to like be like hang out and be everybody's friend
I just went and I was funny and I would leave and then I ended up dating a comic there
And I think that also helped because was it that that was Aaron Cater. Oh, yeah, that's right Aaron
That's right. Yeah, so and at the time then the acts of the evil started and they were doing well
Yeah, 9-11 had happened and everybody knew what an Arab was and so like
It was like all of a sudden it became kind of cool like five years later anyway, right, right?
You know, I betrayed him back then because I did the same thing I did for you
Whereas I got him on a show called K-Loco and yeah, he hadn't done a TV spot yet
I'm like, I'm making an immense. I mean, yeah, you don't know about it because I don't really talk about it
But I'm making amends right now. Yeah, me and on my podcast. Okay. I'm sorry, Aaron
So what happened was he goes I need a TV tape. I go, you know what?
They asked me to do K-Loco, which is was on Telemundo and I said I called them
I said I won't do it because I'd already done it three times. If unless you put my friend on
So the it was being shot at the ice house
And Joey Diaz was the host or whatever and so we're all in the green room and I already gone up and
Joey brings up Aaron Cater and Aaron walks up. You see it on the monitor. He he doesn't say anything
What do you mean Aaron doesn't yeah, oh, you could see that like he's a deer in headlights
Oh, wow. Yeah, it like and then he opened his mouth and nothing came out for like maybe 30 seconds. Oh my god
I've never known him to not say anything ever
It was shocking yeah, right to vocalist sometime and I remember a comic in the back of me
I don't know who it was said out loud. Oh no, right, right, which is like and then everyone could hear
And now I'm sweating. Oh, right and I'm feeling so bad and I'm going come on man. Come on
You know, I mean and then as soon as he opens about you could just tell that he completely lost control of the room and
So what happens at the you know, you should you have three comics go on then all the comments go up on stage
Waves good night and then they start another show, right? So that you know, they shoot like six of them or eight of them night
So after his set he got off and then the host brought two comics back on stage and not him
Oh, just say good night, and then he wanted to go home, but I had left him there. I drove him there
Oh
Be better that teaches you. Yeah. That's like hardcore parenting. Yeah, so yeah kill you kill or or you left behind
Isos is not close
Far away 20 miles from it. Right. So I guess he had to wait to the end of the night and then Joey Diaz drove him home
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, and I feel so bad
But then here's can I just say the redemption of it was a year later
I was just clicking on the television and I saw premium blend right. Mm-hmm
I saw him on that and he killed killed and in my head. I'm like maybe that was good for him
It was you think it was I did I do think yeah
I think that would be good for anybody because when you care about comedy and you fail like that
You're like this is never happening again. Oh, right do everything in your power to make sure what have you failed miserably before?
Yeah, like in a high-pressure situation very high-pressure situation. Yeah, like what happened?
so it was Nashville so at the time I was working at the Four Seasons and
Because that's where I waited table wait in Beverly Hills. Yeah, but you ever working with Sebastian
Oh, yeah, we would have lunch together like he would leave and go to the comedy store on his breaks
I worked at the pool, but he worked in the lab. Oh, it's the passion worked at the Four Seasons, too. Yeah, it's a waiter
We worked there together. Yeah, he was able to leave earlier than I
Just like in life he he did much better, but I
Met this country music singer there and at the time their band was huge. They're called big and rich
They're a huge and big and yeah, so stable horse ride a cowboy who just came out and
John Rich comes in and he here's my accent and he's like where are you from?
I was like oh, I'm from Georgia and he said are you an actress? I said I'm a comedian and he goes I love comedy
I said I know you ordered a Chardonnay and then I just
He's like, do you ever write like he just we just kept talking for like the whole lunch, you know
And then he said do you ever write jokes about country music artists and I was like, oh, yeah, that's like my thing
And so you have to you have to yeah, yeah, they are yeah
And so he's like send me some jokes, you know, and so I sent him a joke every day for a year
Oh, I didn't want him to forget about me because I love country music email you email them
I'll email him every day for a year. Yeah, that was when hotmail existed, you know
so
Hotmail account and and so for his 33rd birthday he brought he flew me out to Nashville
He put me up so that I could tell all these jokes that I had written to all of his friends
He rented out this huge bar on Broadway, which I think he was part owner of
there were probably like
two three hundred people there and
He has me go up and tell all these jokes
So basically I was roasting this before the roasts were on TV like I didn't really even know I was roasting
I just went up there to tell jokes and
I was like, I see kicks Brooks from Brooks and done I go, oh my gosh kicks huge fan
But I can never remember which one is Brooks, which one is done which one actually has the mustache
Which one doesn't which one actually tames the white tigers and which one doesn't do magic at all. I always forget
I'm like silence
Yeah, cuz I also didn't have a lot of like confidence
Nervous, you know, I'm like 27. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like and I go you didn't like that joke and he goes no
Oh, well, maybe I didn't tell it right. I'll tell it again
And this time you have to be defiant right you have to be defiant
I was like and then I and I added a tag to it. I was like, it's just easy to remember y'all are lovers because you can't
Be together for 20 years and not at least make out on the Red Dirt Road
Yeah, and I mean the band started playing cricket noises like it didn't matter what I said
Oh, Ryan McKnight went up after me cuz him and John wrote that song one. You're like a dream come right night
Was there? Yes, so he was
Oh, yeah, and I like and he's he makes a comment about how he has to clean up the mess. I love
Meanwhile one person is dying laughing and it's Tanya Tucker
She's like the only you know
Yeah, like woman admitted into like the bad boys club of Nashville, right?
Yeah, and so she comes out to me at the bar, you know smoking a cigarette and she's like I thought you're
hilarious and then she like made out with me and like kissed me
No reason you're amazing. It's hilarious. You know fuck all these dumb ass, you know. Yeah, so great
Well, when you were at the bar, did you were you just in your own head? Oh, yeah
I was like awful. I thought I it was just like a mess. I was like, he's never gonna talk to me again
You know and he thought it was the most hilarious thing. He's like, I'd have you go right back up there and do it again
I was like, I'm never performing again for the rest of my life. Oh, wow, but yeah
I was like, I'm never gonna let that happen to me again. And then I you know state
He just he's like he won celebrity print is like he's a very big business man
He just loved my work ethics
So he would bring me to Nashville every year after that and I always performed at his house because he has like a
250-seat bar in his house with the big stage and all this stuff and a
Pool that shaped like a guitar like it's insane. And so I would come out there and perform. I would do like, you know
These dirty joke nights that him and Mel Tillis would host and like I performed there for seven years before Zany's ever booked me
Wow, and then I saw kicks Brooks again, and I told him that joke seven years later. He thought it was hilarious
And now he's one of my very good friends. Oh
Yeah, I like, you know, yeah Vegas and watch him perform. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, so it's kind of crazy how it comes full circle
Like you that's the thing about you though is that you were you I remember you being
tenacious
Right, and you just won't wouldn't quit. No
You really you like you worked so hard. There's a couple of people like that where I can just think of it's somebody
There's another girl out there that you know who Helen Hong is. I love Helen. Yeah, yeah
I hire her for stuff on our Netflix show. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's her work ethic
It's like, you know when I did my sitcom they're like, oh Helen Hong is your sister in the show
She showed up and you know she was somebody that wasn't really ever on my radar
But that was the day when I went I just memorized, you know, her, you know, her face her name
I put her in
my
World in terms of like who I respect like I got Margaret show like she is somebody that I just went into to myself
This chick has because I remember when she was starting
Mm-hmm, and it just you were just kind of like, you know, I mean and then she just wouldn't quit
Mm-hmm, and I just I love fucking that shit man. Yeah, you're one of them. You're just wouldn't quit
Well, that's the secret to coming not quitting. Is that it? It really is honestly like if you just hang around long enough and keep doing it
Yeah, be good
There was this guy named Joey Marmo who I started with this Jewish guy
and you remember him probably know and I did open mics with them and then he
One day just went fuck this. I'm going back to North Carolina. I go. Why I'm gonna
Work at my dad's insurance, you know, I mean so he went out
I don't know where I think it was North Carolina and then he started a family at eight kids
I don't know what he and then literally two years ago. I see him at the open mic
What? Yeah, and I go Joey
Yeah, I came back
And I go because I came back and I go why
You guys see you guys all killing it. You know what I mean? And I'm you know, and I'm like I wanted to tell him I go
It's too late. Mm-hmm. You know, is it too late that do you think it's too late? I
Because I'll tell you why I
I'll tell you why I think that I have been successful. Okay, it's because I was there when
You were starting I was there when Sebastian Moscow. Everyone was starting
I grew up grew up with people and now I'm the jobs that I'm getting is all because of my history, right?
It's it's because of all the things that I've done
It's because of all the work that I continue to do and I think that that has a lot to do with it
You know, it's like, you know, who you know is you know, when they say that it kind of is true
It's all about that. Yeah, you guys have never even so much as taken like a six-month break and said, you know what like
I just need a moment to recalibrate figure out if this is really what I want to do
Or have you always just pushed and pushed and pushed? Yeah, until quarantine until we weren't I never stopped
Yeah, I mean I had to stop when I was super pregnant because I would run out of breath. I couldn't breathe
I was yeah, I can't like 70 pounds. I couldn't breathe and the baby was huge
And like that was the only reason I had to take a break. Yeah, and then quarantine made me take a longer one
But in the 19 years I've known you you've always been around. Yeah. Yeah, I mean and that's kind of it
But like that's also like I just knew I like once I started I was like, man
I really enjoy writing jokes for other people. I started realizing that about I
Don't know 10 years in, you know, and I was just like I enjoy performing myself
But I it's much more rewarding for me to write a joke in someone else's voice and like see them perform that and then that
Be good. I don't know. I just really enjoyed that and so that's how I got into the roasts, too
It was because I I would let Jeff perform at my
Jeff Ross I would let him perform at this room that I ran and
Finally, I saw him at a birthday party once and I was like, what's the next roast you're doing and he said
He told me that like it was like Quentin Tarantino was like some charity thing
And I said, what's your email and he gave me his email and I just sent him jokes every day until he just could ignore me anymore
Wow, and then he's like, okay come over and I and he's like it's not it's this isn't like a paid gig
And I was like, you know, I have to pay me just remember me for a gig
Just think about me when someone it needs somebody for a gig. That's all it is
When the roast battles first started on those Tuesday nights. Remember the first time you saw Sarah go up
Yeah, yeah, and you came home and you were like, holy
Did you you did I did the beginning, right? Yeah, the beginning. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you came home and you were like holy
Holy shit, yeah, yeah, you got to go Tuesdays at midnight. That was the wildest thing I'd ever seen
I did not want to do those. Yeah, Brian Moses like kept pushing me and I was like and I was the first person that would
Just I would judge them to start
I was always a judge and and everyone and the judges kept thinking they were roasting them too and I'd be like
And that joke would have been so good
If you had just taken the middle and or if you had taken the end and made it more of a beginning or put some head on that
Jeff you had said it like this it would have worked
So I became more of just like I've become like, oh man, it just it's all math to me. So I'm just like, oh, it's like a word problem
I'm just constantly
Rearranging words and trying to figure out how they work best together and then they kept pushing me and pushing me into like do
I'm like nobody wants to see me right like I'm too nice like nobody wants to see that
And then like it just worked out
Yeah, I hate to wear and then they started using me for when they were pitching the show
So like they'd have me and Ralphie roast each other for
You know Russell Simmons would come like at the time they wanted HBO to buy it
So then he would come in and I would just like roast the shit
And my thing was I was always like super prepared. I would do tons and tons of research
But my thing with roasting was like I'm not trying to hurt your feelings like I'm trying to impress you
I want to write a joke that you want to use
Right, yeah, like I'm not I'm not you know, it's not I'm not gonna say anything that is malicious
That you wouldn't you know, I want to say something that's clever and interesting that you would want to use in your act
And so that's kind of what helped me be good at that like for roast battle. Anyway, yeah
I mean, I mean, that's also the reason why you know, obviously I needed you in every situation that I had
I would call you because of the fact that like, you know, I mean you're great on stage
But I also knew that you're just a great writer as well
You know, I mean you just had that that head and that brain to do it. Did you go up against Tiffany? Yeah
Yeah, that was Tiffany and annihilated like oh my yeah, yeah, I said I remember saying because it didn't feel like she wrote anything
Yeah, Tiffany, did you weave your joke?
Yeah, because a lot of these people like, you know, um, they have personalities think that they can just show up, right?
Right, and you was exactly like that. He'd be like, I'm just going off the dome Sarah. Yeah. All right. Good luck
But it's like the precision of your jokes, right? Yeah, would oh the precision would always win
Yeah, I mean just the way, you know, I mean just the setup and the harsh switch or whatever it was, you know
It was like it's just something that I I never tried out of fear because I just I
Maybe I just don't know how to write that way or I can be mean talent though
But I can be mean, you know, but she you see it as a mathematical equation
Yeah, that's how her brain reads it and that's how her brain is able to put it on paper
Yeah, I really think that that's a talent
I think it's also easier for me because I don't have a lot of like demons or anything
So like you also have to be able to be roasted. That's the other part
I'm not just roasting people and not getting it in return. I'm also getting it in return
So it's like it's not like I I've never, you know been to AA, you know
I mean like I don't have like a past that like people could really dig into. Yeah, right
I knew that, you know, they were just gonna make whore jokes about me
Prepared for that because that's not who I am at all. You know, I'd be like, oh
Whenever they would I would have tons of comebacks for those jokes that I knew were coming and I would
You know try and annihilate them based on their laziness
Like if you knew I remember like I remember roasting big poppy who what when he retired from the Red Sox
Yeah, David Ortiz, you know big pop
Yeah, I know I have a story about that. You know what he did one time
No, he went up to big poppy thinking that big poppy was Manny Ramirez. Oh, no, no, I don't know
So wait, didn't Manny play for the Dodd. Yeah late Manny. Oh late Manny biggie poppy
Biggie poppy did that show game on which that was right. Oh, so I kept calling him Manny
Oh, right and then he just won. He just kind of because all day long it called because I didn't know
Me and you're like, babe this guy
Manny he's like a really famous baseball player. You love baseball come over here and when I got on set I was like
That's not man. I was like, that's David Ortiz. And eventually he goes, hey, I'm not Manny
Grab me and I was like, oh
Fuck my bad. I don't know
But that's so funny because David Ortiz notoriously called his teammates the wrong names forever
Like Dustin Padrella like who played second base for that like he called him pee we like for like six
Yeah, and then he heard the umpire like calling him David and he's like what or doesn't what I call you Dustin
He's like, that's my name. It's like, oh, I thought it was pee we
You know, I don't feel bad. No, it was your thing about David Ortiz. Well, they did
I was the only woman on the roast. It was like Gronk was there who I noted that show. Yeah as well, you know, and
And they literally just called me a whore for like and I was like you guys
You guys have are giving me a lot of credit. That was the first thing I said
I was like my list of sexual partners is a lot like Dustin Padrella. It is embarrassingly short. Yeah
Yeah, like let me go. Wow. You know what I mean, but I should do research
Yeah, that's that's what I think that's the because I did tell you about the I told you about the commercial
I did right now, which I did a commercial a long time ago, and I was doing it with these two old men
Right, and I thought these two old men were because they didn't have any lines really and I go
They're extras
Yeah, in my head. I'm like, they're have to be extra
I'm the one gonna actually make you make you rageful
Recoil it's gonna make you so, you know and also I'm I just gotten a sag and also
I was getting like that year. I got like 12 national commercials Jesus in my head
I'm like, I'm the king of you know me and commercials I can be me
Right, so um, I would go a
Go get me a
Diet Coke little man to little man. You do like all right. Let me go to the
Get me pretzels
Right. Oh my god, and at the end is so embarrassing and at the end then at the end of the shoot
They start having dialogue so good. They shut the first part right they shot me and then so they had some dialogue
I'm like, oh, they aren't extras and then at the end somebody came up to me and goes
What was like working with two legends? I go well those two old men
Yeah, I go. Who are they? He goes Gordie how and Stan Makeda who are hockey legends, right?
Mm-hmm. I mean these guys are like, you know, I mean the Babe Ruth I know and then they had already gone because I wanted to apologize. Oh
Yeah, I did I wanted to how would you apologize to a hockey player?
No, just say I
Sorry, I made you kick me a duck hook. I thought you were so sorry. You know something
But they had already gone in their limos away
And then you know and also when you make a mistake like that you just spent the whole next week
just laying in bed and
Just like you're just blushing you should just be so grateful that they didn't beat the shit out
whole job is
You're right, right? Yeah. Yeah, I just make mistakes like that all the time and it's like I should just do research
Or look at the call sheet and go. You I mean Gordie and just Google. Yeah, I do that for you now
She does it now. Oh, that's nice. I'm not I get secondhand embarrassment. Uh-huh
I mean the worst thing was honestly when big poppy was on set. Yeah. Yeah, as soon as I saw his face
I was like has he been calling him Manny in the whole the time. Yeah, my heart sang
Yeah, well that yeah for that. I remember when I went up to him. I was like, hey big poppy nice to meet you
And I pretend like I didn't know you at all. Yeah
Yeah, I do remember that but it's like yeah with that show especially like I had to then kind of show up and go
Who are these athletes because it's like, you know, you were always you're an athlete. You love sports
Hmm. I only like specific ones like I know about MMA. I know about soccer and that's pretty much it
Okay, like you don't have to know about everything like that's
That's fine. I don't think athletes get offended, you know, you should know their name if you're working. Oh, no
No, because me and
Gronk, you know, I mean he texts me. I mean, we're wrong before you met Gronk. What?
Definitely doesn't remember people's names, but no, well, he told you do you think it's a CT?
I mean gotta be. No, he looked at me once just out of nowhere and he goes. I never read a book
He said out of nowhere, but he's written to
He's written to yeah ghost writers, right?
I mean for sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but I think he's just a special kind of genius
Maybe one that doesn't you know read on paper as a genius, but not only that you can also feel his heart
Yeah, yeah, and you just know as soon as you meet him you go. Oh, he's a good guy
He really he's just a nice kind of a good guy. His team were really nice people, you know, I also liked
Venus oh, that's right. Yeah, Venus Williams was also on it and
You never watched tennis either. Well, I know who the Williams are

She just had a baby. Oh, yeah, I'm just trying to think. Yeah, she just had, um, twins, right? Or, um, man, I can't think
I'm trying to think of, uh, Messi
Cristiano Ronaldo. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. He was one of my number. I waited when I worked at the Beverly Hills Hotel
He like lived there when he was rehabbing his ankle. And so I like worked with him every day
No, I waited on him every day. Was he nice? Oh, so nice
Handsome? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He has like the most perfect skin
Oh my god. He has beautiful skin. So many girls. So many girls like just would
Like swim slowly over to his side of the pool because he was always in a cabana like a private cabana and he
He was wow. How long was they there for? Oh over a month. Any other soccer players hang out there?
I wouldn't have known them. Oh
Yeah, it was always really interesting like, um
I remember my favorite, not favorite, but one of the craziest customers I had forever was Shug Knight
And I remember like, I went, he always liked the barbecue chicken pizza, no onions
and, uh, he would disappear for hours at a time and I'd be like, I need Mr. Knight to sign his check, you know
Like I can't leave until he signs his check
Because I knew it was going to be at least a hundred bucks. Yeah. Yeah. And so, oh wait and wait and wait and then
Uh, I remember one night I was in West Westwood
Like and I had like I had been shopping. I had like a gap bag, you know
Like all like clothes and he gets out of an escalade with like seven dudes
and I stop and I go
Mr. Knight and I like
Like a total white girl way
Mr. White like like a presidential like no, no, no just like eager like like when you see somebody that you know from far away and you're like
Hey, I've never done that before. Well, that's what I do. Yeah
And I'm very cheery. I don't know if you've noticed but tell me he recognized you
He had he just like and I was like right and I just like
All right. All right. Yeah. This is not the right situation
I saw him at the comedy store a couple times and he did remember me there. Oh, he did. Yeah
He'd be like you want to come out with us and I'm like, no, thanks
I'm not going to be tonight's stuff
Yeah, I'm good. Hey, because did you wait on famous people in tip? I don't want to name names, but
I was usually only like the British people that did that
Ah, they don't know culturally. Yeah, that's just not a custom there. So like you knew
There were lots of like there were tons of celebrities
There was one guy that I remember coming one time and he had a silver
One of those silver hardback suitcase like briefcases and he had a handcuffed to him
And he was drinking like double gray goose on the rocks with extra money
He was attractive
But he was hanging out the jacuzzi and every time you walked past him, he would give you 50 bucks
So I walked past him a lot and and then I ended up like just like trying to figure out like what was going on with him
and his
wife had left him for another guy and was trying to take all his money
And so he took all the money out of the bank and put it in that briefcase
And he was like me me and my room later tonight and where I'm going to Paris
And you'll never have to worry about anything for the rest of your life
And I always think like man if I had done that what would have happened like where would my life be?
Right, right. Would I be doing this podcast? Does he handsome? Yeah, he was handsome. Yeah, he wasn't he wasn't incredibly handsome
But he was like handsome enough. Did you consider it?
Yeah, of course. Yeah, I think there's a little part of you that goes
And then you go no, no, no like this can't be a good situation to get into
Yeah, you could either be royalty or dead right exactly. Yeah, it's 50 50 50 50. Yeah
Yeah, like the $50 bills he was handing out. He's crazy enough to handcuff the briefcase to him all day. Yeah
He's crazy enough to but it clearly somebody was going to be looking for that money because that wasn't technically
Legally all his yeah, how long did you work there? The four seasons I worked there for like two or three years and then
Took a break and then went to the Beverly Hills Hotel
You were there as well for five years. Oh my god years or something
Yeah, for a long time and like it was great because I got tons of free hotel nights at the hotel
Around the world. So I would be new comic on the road
You know, I was the mc at like the funny farm in Atlanta, you know, and they're like, we can't put you up and I'm like, don't worry
I got hotel night
You know, the headliner would be at the Marriott and I'd be at the four
Four seasons
So people thought I was like some rich kid, you know and like but everyone was always really nice
Now can we talk about um your baby? Yeah, sure
Caged I never that's your baby's name cage cage
Great name like Nicholas cage. Oh, it's a yeah. I know what well. I'm just saying like some people say, you know
They call him like gauge. Is it based on Nicholas cage?
It's from we were watching the baby naming sketch on snl to come try and come up with a name
And it's it's nicolas cage and julia sweeney
And so the old the head writer it lights out was like have you ever seen the baby naming sketch because he used to write on snl
And I was like no and I watched it. I thought it was so funny
And then I came home that night and I showed my boyfriend and he's like cage is a cool name
And we wanted a c name or a b name
That the he would have the same initials as my boyfriend. Oh, wow
So
Yeah, I was like, well, I don't know anybody named cage and that sounds sporty, but like not too much pressure
It's like kind of cool and tough and you know now he has a scar already because he had to get stitches
so I know I mean I
When I look at the baby that baby because I see videos and stuff
Is literally one of the happiest babies I've ever fucking seen
But it's like me, you know, I'm a pretty happy. Yeah, you are he's very cheery. He's very happy right now
He's very into giving kisses and hugs
It's like so sweet. Yeah
He just like he then goes like this. He goes
Like he like lifts his little chin up. It's pretty cute show. Is it strangers and then, you know
Four split second earlier, george had thought he were married to wil sasa
Oh, oh, yeah, silver face. Yeah. Yeah. Nope. I'll take that
I think he does in real life in real life. He doesn't look like he does not look like that in real life
I think he looks like the guy from the americans, but with a shaved head a little. Yeah, I find him to be very cute
Yeah, thank you. I really do. I like his face. Yeah, he's got he's got one of those like, um,
You know, I always refer to it as if I was in a concentration camp
Who'd help you?
Yeah, like one of the like if I was in the you know, one of the japanese one of those interming interim camps
and one or two white people would
I assume
Would sneak up to the fence and like put like sandwiches. You know, I mean, he's like your your your husband's like one
You guys are married now, right? No, we're not married. You're gonna get married. I don't know
Yeah, we're on this. I feel like yeah, I was like, you know, most of it
It's because he's a patriots fan and I feel like he's one enough
I'm like, I'm not gonna give you a ring as well
Uh
No, I mean we've talked about but we just decided to have a baby first because I'm old
You know and all right, it was just kind of like this is a little bit more pressing and so we
Decided to do that. So is it because you know, I'm I don't know why
But I have like a clock ticking and I want a baby now. Oh, it's clock sticking though. My yeah
Yeah, my clock's ticking and um, let me ask you something as a friend
Is it worth it?
Are you being serious because you did that thing where you
You you you did your actor thing with me where you're pretending to be serious, but I don't think you okay
I'll do it. I'll ask again
Okay, I'll fucking ask again
Oh, yeah, it's not a podcast anymore. This is real. Okay. Yeah, we'll turn we'll turn off the cameras
Okay
Hi
um
Sarah I've known you for 19 years and um,
I honestly like we don't really hang out that much
But we see each other often. I know a lot. I think somewhat a lot about you
I should I should know more but I do know enough to know that um, I trust you
And I really do and I think that in terms of the the business that we're in is filled with a lot of
A lot of scoundrels people that I don't really trust
um, and there are people like you and there are people um that I know that um
I trust implicitly will sass would be one of them. He just has one of those things
You know, I mean that you could Eric stone streets another guy, you know, I mean the I love Eric
and um
I've I want a baby
And I'm asking as a friend. Um, is it worth it?
Yes
Okay, it is worth it. I thought it'd be funny to say no, but I
When I realized how serious you were back on real quick. I would say, uh
Also for you the clock is ticking because like the older your sperm gets the higher the chance of autism
So you have to be careful about that
but
My cum is very young
I'm old, but my cum is very. I love that
Yeah, because I I have a little um microscope microscope at home upstairs. I mean, this is where I live my bad
And every time I come I look right
And they're just you know, they're into it
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I would just say
I uh, I think the more pressing thing is just like you get they're exhausting
And so I think the older you get the harder it becomes
So exhausting it just sounds like you're talking me out of it
No, no, no, what I was gonna say is that you don't think I'll be a good. I was
No, I think you'd be a great father. Be honest with me. Are you doing acting? Are you acting?
Are you are you seratiana? No, this is why I think you'd be a great father because you're fun. There we go
Um, you are spontaneous, which you have to be with children. Exactly. Um, you're reliable
And uh, you are you genuinely care, but you are reliable
Yes
First the rebuttal after this I want to hear your rebuttal you genuinely care about people and things and you remember things about people and I think
I think you would teach a kid but also not be so
But not be like a parent that's like such a hover like you would let them be a kid
I'm gonna hover a helicopter. Yeah, daddy. And I'm glad she said that because I'm gonna look at you now
Okay, I'm glad she said that because um, remember what she said it was exhausting
Mm-hmm. I don't know but can I just say something remember how much you love your sleep you treasure your sleep I love sleeping
Can I say something remember how you almost had you our dog was choking two weeks ago
And after I said not to feed it. He has no teeth
Don't feed it that hot dog and you fed it the hot dog and then the dogs are choking
Do you remember that can it can I ask you something? Do you remember that I'm a human being?
And do you also remember that I have frailties and I make mistakes as human beings do
Mm-hmm. Okay. And can I say something else? All right, you know, I'm tired of being judged as a human
Let me I know doesn't seem clear right
But I feel like I'm my back is against the wall. It's gonna get and I'm gonna I'm gonna make it clear. Okay
So it's like, you know
Yeah, based on, you know, if you look at my behavior and who I am as a human as a regular guy in society, right?
Maybe, you know, I mean, there's I need a lot of improvements, right?
And maybe I do have a lot of character defects and frailties and things
But if you look at me as a comedian, right, it I'm bumped up. I think a little
Right. So in terms of in comedy, you know, I have to admit I've helped a lot of comics. I have I'm generous
I'm very generous very very generous. You love that about you. Okay. I'm generous. Um, I really fundamentally
Root for the fucking you know, I mean the underdog, which is a good trait. I think and um
I think at the end of the day, I'm a good person. You are a good person. Yeah, you know, so, um
What do you think?
Yeah, I I think all of those things I agree. Yeah. Yeah. I also
I want to state a few facts
I'm like curious as to what's holding you back. Yeah. Yeah
Yeah
Did you or did you not almost set this whole house on fire four times in the last six months? Yes
human
Did you or did human did you or did you not cost at the very least two choking incidents with our animals?
Do you or do you not yes seatbelt?
Yes, no, I don't but yes
I will go we're driving yesterday you go put the seatbelt. I put it on I will tell you that having a child makes you think about your own
Mortality way more. I think before I had a baby. I wasn't really afraid of anything
I'd be like I my
You know, if I was like, oh if I had to choose how to die I would do it in a plane crash because I know I'd pass out and then
I'd probably be in first class. I'd probably be drinking
My family would get money from the airline like everybody wins, you know, but like now I'm like terrified
Driving I'm like if I get hit by a car and I can't go home and see my son like I've never been
I've never had to think so much about someone else and that's what a child forces you to do it
That's the most stop being selfish. That's the most compelling argument. I've ever heard
Oh, it's actually you now. I want a baby today because anything I will do anything for this man to care more about his safety
That that's how I know that's the thing is I know and this is the truth, okay?
This is the truth. Okay. I know when I look at the baby when it comes out of the choo choo
Right, and it's slimy and it's whatever it does. You know me
You know, right and I'm holding it, right?
And it and it looks at me right and I look at it. I know that like
Five or six things will forever change within me. Number one
I'll have an instant connection. Right because I just love the little things
Mm-hmm. You're right. Number two
I know that I just have no motivation
You know, I mean, I I know that a kid would motivate me
You know, I mean, I believe that as well because you can see it in my sobriety
If I okay, let me say something when I'm
Relapsed or I'm drinking I don't stay out that that that out there that long
Right after three or four months of using drugs and this and that even if I have everything like I relapsed in this house
Right. I didn't really lose everything. I mean you threatened to leave
I did didn't work. It didn't work, right? And then you went to the therapy. It turns out I'm obsessed. Yeah, right?
So, you know, I didn't really lose anything
But what I could see is like my gut says, you know, I mean if you go down this path, right?
It's it's not going to be good
Right. So you might as just nipping in the butt right now, right? I just have that internal thing about me, right?
I think that's I think a kid would do that for me. I would start doing yoga again
I would do use the peloton and I you know, I mean, you know, I will say though that it doesn't happen right away
I thought it would happen when you first get you're like, oh my god
I you know I talk about it on stage like how it makes me think like the bachelor is
Like why it works. I'm like when you're trapped in a house with a man like all day. You're like, I think I love him
I don't know. I think I do. He's here for the right reasons, you know
I feel like I want to spend the rest of my life
It's only been a couple weeks, but it took a couple and that it could be because I was on so much medication
because I had to have a c-section because my baby was abnormally large and
So you're kind of drugged, you know, like it takes a while and then like when they start looking you in the eye
Once they can actually see because it takes like
A month to two months before they can actually like recognize you
They really just know your smell and your sounds at the beginning
And once you start seeing them like bond with you and like
Look you and like need you and they start making noises or laughing at you or smiling when they see you and like
Just wanting you to hold them like when when somebody else holds them and then they cry and then you hold them and they stop
Yeah, it's like all these little things add up and so all you just fucking sold it for me
You just fucking sell because he just had a baby. Well, how long a month ago a month ago. Is he recognizing?
Yeah, right and then would you get those feelings?
Yeah, it's it's hard and and the nights can be very hard and long
But you know, thank goodness there are two of you and you can switch off you can also hire a night nurse
We're gonna hire we have a girl hire tons of people
We have we have a girl
I'm like people can help you with lots of stuff and and your family will want to help and like
There's so many people that that always want to help and hold everybody wants to hold a baby
I'm gonna get a night nurse. Yeah, that really helps too because
Obviously sleep is like people go. Oh, you must and I sleep
You know eight nine hours a night, but it's still not enough
You know when people say like, oh, you just you don't get enough sleep. They mean 20 hours
Yeah, because all he's like now he's walking
He's just exhausting and all he wants to do all day is like play with the ball or play outside and like
And I'm just constantly watching him to make sure he doesn't go close to the dog
The dog doesn't you know, don't put that in your mouth and so that it becomes tedious
But then like I was like, I'm never having another one. This is it. Just the one I don't want to
I don't want to play like want to play zone. I don't want to have to play man to man, you know
and um, and now I'm like
I can have another one. I think
Really that's something but I can't convince
He was the one that wanted it and now he's like, no
It's too exhausting. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. He's always gonna fall off of something. You know, he's always like
It's like he's like a circuit spare like constantly where you're like, don't step on that. Don't jump on that. What are you doing? Don't dive
Oh, he started standing and then he was like, I'm gonna do it on chairs
All right. Wow. Yeah, the floor is fine. You know, wow, there's little things. It's it's not easy
But it's very rewarding like all the goods like completely outweigh the bad and people would tell me that
And until you have I mean until you have one you just won't a big part of me was like
You know, I was always very maternal anyway. I was like a mother to everyone at the comedy store. Basically
Yeah, I took care of so many broke comics there, you know, but like I think a big part of me was just like as a woman
Like I feel like I'm able to do this incredible magic trick with my body and I feel like I'd be doing myself a disservice
Yeah to not try to do my magic
Yeah, but also but I also want you to focus on your career as well
And I want you to go on the road
I want you to make money and all that stuff as well
You know, but I don't want to be on the road like I don't make money on the road
I make money in the rider's room and I get attention and I get health insurance. Yeah dental. Yeah
And when I do the road like I'll do it with tosh like that's who I go out with, you know
Because our kids are exactly one year apart. They were born on the same day
What's he like on the road? He's incredible. He's just like you. He's incredibly generous. I love Daniel. I love it
We hang out now our babies hang out all the time. Oh, wow. It's so crazy. Yeah. Yeah
It's just so weird like the way the world is, you know, I mean and I got every single thing that
I mean his son had shouldn't have said his name. Sorry. You'll have to cut that out. Yeah, but I
He he gave me all the hand me downs from his son, you know, like everything my son had is from
You know, like fancy stuff like is his son older than one year one year older. Exactly one year. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
And so it's great like now he has someone, you know that
That he can hang out with and play with and chase around and he's another one
Daniel tosh
That when he made it sometimes people when people make it I kind of go
Yeah, fly god, you know, I mean and then they get bigger and then you have to drive by their billboards and you're like boy
And he's one of those guys where I went it. There's no I just
Sebastian the same way where it's just like
You deserve it. Mm-hmm. You're uber talented. Mm-hmm. Nice guy. Mm-hmm. No weird feelings at all. No, it's the weird ones
I mean that I just kind of go
Like who? No, I'm just gonna
I have named them. I have named them
Yeah, I like it today though. Okay. I'm not gonna do today, but I like to start fires
I heard because Lila told me about the house. Yeah, I like to start yeah
I
But yeah, I mean I think that there are a lot of people that I
Haven't enjoyed performing with but you know
Daniel and yourself are like by far my favorites. Like it was fun. We're working with you because um number one
I remember we went to San Antonio ones, right? And we walked around remember we walked around and then
The river walk the river walk. Yeah, you were and I were at the river walk and then you would sell your um
The cat. Oh, yeah, that's why I said I wish I would have known you had a little puppy
Yeah, yeah, I brought some bow ties. My mom still makes the cat bandanas and dog bow ties
Oh, really cat bandana calm if anyone
Do you sell on the road still or no? Oh, yeah
Oh, wow when I would go on the road and I would make ones for that city's uh sports teams
Oh, wow
So we would we would look at my schedule. My mom would make them for like
Minnesota teams or you know, all the is she proud of you?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I make fun of them and I act like they're not that but they're very proud
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're they they I have to tell them not to sit in the front row
Oh, right, right, right because they get very and my dad will stand next to me
Uh after the show and like shake every he'd be like, I'm Sarah's dad
Yeah, they're very very supportive very happy all the time, you know
So at the end of our thing, you know, first of all, you were a delight. Oh, thank you. Thanks for having me
And it's just so easy
That's you know, a lot of times it's not that easy
Right. We've had ones where it was like
That was hard
You have to do a lot of work. Yeah
Or just you just don't get anything back
But I could talk to you forever and we're gonna have you back on but um at the end of our podcast
We do a thing called unhelpful advice
And people have emails for us and you can help them or not. Okay, so go ahead
Unhelpful advice. Go ahead. You can take hold on. Hold on. Let Jules take uh, the puppy puppy. Oh, this is a bad idea
to bring him in here. This is the night nurse
She looks very competent and helpful. Yeah, she's in high school
She almost he almost broke
One of my poppies other dogs paw today. No, she didn't
You're projecting you're projecting. She's so helpful. She's my she's the greatest
She's my little helper in the house. I'll go ahead and get it
But I'm just saying let me just say this to cut this out is if I had done that I would have gotten a real big trouble
So much more if I had done that it's mayhem. Yeah, she doesn't
That's another reason you need a kid so you can blame stuff on the kid like the kid did it
There we go. That's a good add that in the baby is the one that
Yeah, yeah that threw the dog over that's not my shit
Baby baby relapse. Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yes, the baby's drinking. Why can't I?
My eight year my eight year the unhelpful advice again
Unhelpful advice with sarah tiana
Impressive my eight second city chicago. All right, man. My father died last year
And this living trust he explicitly left everything to me and name my three siblings as getting zero
Before he died he verbally reminded me specifically to make sure one sister received zero
He wasn't wealthy about 60,000 was left for me
I feel guilty for not giving some to my sister
But I loved my father and she abandoned him for the last year of his life
Please alleviate me of my guilt or not
Okay, let me get this straight because okay, so his dad dies. Yep
Left him 60 grand all the money. Is it him or her? It is a
To him. We'll call him james james. So james got 60 grand. He has other siblings. Yes one
Uh three three they got nothing nothing
And and he's not going to give them anything
He would like to uh, the dad also made it very specific for one sister to really not get anything. Okay
I mean, I have an answer. Well, I just have a suspicion not an answer
My suspicion is that
He wants to stick it and blame like you do
You want to stick it you want to stick the blame onto the fact that the dad wanted them to have zero and pretend
Like he's respecting the wishes because he himself wants to keep the 60 grand
So he wants that's not it. I think I think that's it. He that's that's that's that's that's because really all he could do is
He owns the money now. He's the inheritor. He could just give it if he really wanted to if he felt so much guilty
He could that's yeah, but then you're not respecting the wishes of
Listen the wishes of your listen
I
Told you my cousin many years ago
Called me and he goes
Um, you know, I have kids like yeah, he goes you're doing really well. Congratulations. I go. Thank you and he goes um
I can't literally feed my kids
So I go
All right. Well, see you later. I mean, I don't know what I mean
And he goes can I have 10 grand?
So I went, you know, I gotta give this guy 10 grand. You know what I mean? Only one time. That's it
but I'm gonna give it to him and
My brother told my dad. I was giving one of my cousins 10 grand. My dad called me when we this is my dad by the way
Oh, amazing
Yes
He's in here. He's a he's a pig me
This is his condo. Yeah. Yeah
It's a very small apartment. Yeah. Yeah. So, um, my dad is so my dad called me and he goes you can't
Give him anything and I go why?
Because here's dad my uncle fuck me
over
So many here, you know, I mean you can't so I had to call this cousin back and go
I can't give it to you and my cousin, right?
You know, he threatened to kill everyone in my family
He was that desperate because I told him that I would do it, right? But I abided by my father's
You mean wishes. Yeah, but why do the kids have to pay for that?
Like okay, your dad had beef with somebody that's not him the person that you're giving money to maybe a hundred years from now
Our grandkids are gonna pay for the environmental mess that we've were leaving them. You know, I mean people just pay
I would uh
If I felt guilty about having the money and I felt like it depends on how if he thinks his
Brothers and sisters are deserving. Yeah, because if they're not then don't give them anything
You know, but if they are and you feel guilty about it, maybe you don't have to give them money
Maybe you can just buy them something they need with the money that you have. Yeah, but if the sister had the best way to do
Yeah, that's not technically giving them money. You're just buying them a gift
But he's saying the sister abandoned the dad that last year doesn't get anything
So that one gets nothing she gets nothing zero. What do you think?
Maybe
And let's see if you're lying. Hey James. Yeah, first of all if you're fucking look at me
I would this is what if that woman had kids. I'd give the kids stuff. Yeah. Yes. That's what yeah, not her
Can I finish mine? Yeah
Hey
James
James
If you're lying listen if you're lying then go fuck yourself
But if you're telling the truth and your dad really did say that and your sister did
Abandon your dad the last year of his life, right? Then you can't give her any money. That's all I'm gonna say
Yeah, there you go. That makes sense. Give us another one. Hey guys

So nearly a decade ago
I fell in love with someone a few months prior to moving across country
The love was mutual but neither of us wanted a long distance relationship at the time
There was a lot of ups and downs but one thing remained
We still loved each other and we still do now, but we're both in serious relationships
It's been on my mind like crazy lately, and I don't know what to make of it
To be with him would be a total life restart and it would I would risk so much
But I often wonder about the potential reward. What do you think bridges of Madison county? That's the answer
Bridges of Madison county. You see that movie remember that last scene? What's it?
Clint Clint Clint Eastie
Yeah, yeah, he's in the car the last he sees her in the rearview mirror, right?
And that's he's in love with her right, but she's married right and he drives away
That's it
I think also sometimes the idea of someone is way more. That's what I'm saying
Yeah, that yeah, but it that's true
I think people think like if I was with this person it would solve all the problems because you're projecting all the bad things from
Your own relationship and thinking they won't be the same in that other relationship
But remember you are the common denominator like you might be bringing you might be the cause of those problems and bring them
With you, so I would say
Don't do it. Do you have a love though?
Outside of your the one the one they got away. No, there's not one guy. No, me neither
No, me either. I wait what I always let me either that doesn't pursue no me either
Me either now it's angry
Me either. I agree. I also think like I read this article where
I don't know if it was on vice where they're like
Careful with how the pandemic has affected your thought processes about your relationship because people are really looking forward to that hot girl summer
and getting back out there and living a life and
You know breaking it off with the person they've stuck it out with through the pandemic
And I also think it's like you have so much time to like
Ponder you've had a lot of time to ponder like I was starting digging through photos having feelings again
For people I hadn't seen in like 10 years, but that's not real
This nightmare is real
This is the reals. Yeah, the foundation is deep and solid. Yeah, I think your imagination can really carry. Yeah, and it's very
it's
yeah, it's uh
I always think of when I think about like exes in that way in a very like lustful way
Forgetting how horrible the actual real part of the relationship was. Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna show you something. Okay
Okay, so this is oh wait, hold on. I'm not really lost for any x so this is my this is my screensaver
for my phone, okay, this is
This is a drawing of kalilah. There's another drawing of kalilah, right? But this is kalilah as a kid
Right, and I always look at this. Okay, and I know
that these
Kalilahs on here, right?
When I look at it
Especially when I'm because I've traveled some, you know, I mean I always look at it and I go
It's just like a knowing right that this is
There's a connection there. It's even unexplainable almost, right?
But I know
That we were meant to be with each other
I know and I'm not I don't want
I have to be honest with you. I should be more appreciative of that
It's very rare honestly
I should be more appreciative in this day and age
It is pretty rare for people who are right for each for your person and you to find each other because
There are so many options out there
I think that's the other part that kills relationships is that
You know, there are seven billion people on the planet and we have access to every one of them like
You know back in the day people would be married for like 60 years and you're like, yeah
There were like three choices in town. You know, you took the lesser of two evils or whatever
But like now I feel like we have so many options. We are inundated with so many
You know choices
And it's like the the cheesecake factory menu. I never know what I'm gonna eat there because there's way too many pages
They even have a tie option, right? But in and out you always know what you want because it's yeah
Yeah, animal style. Yeah, and so I think when you do find true love in the world that we're in now
It is something that you really have to hold on to and make work
And I I don't think that like marriages and relationships should be work
I think they should be like a garden that needs to be tended like you're just kind of like
Every day you kind of do a little bit. You don't have to you know replant. Yeah, you know, you shouldn't have to
If we change the soil
I always have an 18th century view of a relationship as well
How I'll explain myself
You know back in the day we've done 18th century roleplay. Yeah, that was great
Here we hear a yay. So here I've been a shoemaker
And he's been the aristocrat. I want you to churn butter though next time be the lady that churns butter. So um, let me
So back in the day, you know, a guy would look be with a woman not just necessarily for breeding purposes
There's a lot of things like can she you know, I mean, can she tend the you know, I mean the fields
You mean she hold the fort down. Yeah, she can can she you know mean plow she can she do other things?
There's other considerations
Survival, you know, I mean as well and for me, it's like when I look at my beautiful
You know, maybe Filipino butterfly. Wow, right?
You know, I there's a lot of things that I consider, right?
mainly it's like
We work well together as well on this podcast. We've created things together
um, and um
She hates this word and I'm not going to use it. I'm gonna the only is we're
God you hate this word the please don't say roommates. No, no, we're not room. Okay. We're fine and say the word. Yeah. Yeah
You're my lover
I love you
But there is also a trust there and a friendship
Friendship is of course the friendship is the word. Yeah. Yeah, and I love that word. I don't mind that. Okay
And so I just can you know, for me, it's like before when I was in my 20s like I don't want to stick my
pee pee in that hole. You know what I mean your 20s or four. Yeah, and just
All that whatever. Oh, sorry my bad. Yeah a little too far
But yeah, but then as you get older, I mean you just consider more
There's more consider anyway. Yeah, I think I think that's important. You have to grow as a human being
I think it takes sometimes makes maybe takes a little longer for men to grow because men don't have a sense of urgency
Like women are planners and we're like by this age. I'm gonna be like that, you know
um, but I
I think
I don't know. I I realized like I used to have all these dealbreakers and stuff that I would like
Do it like a checklist, you know, even like now like my voicemail says you reach Sarah Tion and Matthew Stafford
And because he is my favorite football player and when guys would go
Do you have a roommate? I'd be like nice to meet you because like if you don't know who Matthew Stafford is
There's no reason for us to talk. It was like really it was like this like
Rams, baby. Yeah, it was just like this immediate thing, right? It was like
So if I if I left a message, you know, I'd probably lean Wayne Rooney
If they didn't know who Wayne Rooney was
Yeah, but I realized that like but when I met my boyfriend, I was he literally checked off every day
He had all of them. He had a roommate. His car was a mess. His which meant, you know, that means your room's mess
Which means your life's a mess, you know, like all these things
And then I realized that like the things I thought I wanted were not what I wanted and what I realized was like
I just want someone that I can respect and brag about and look up to and he has all those things
He's someone I'm proud of constantly that I'm impressed by
Yeah, uh, and like I can always brag about him and I think as a woman that is like really essential
For us, you know, yeah, you know, like especially in this day and age because like
You know, especially when you're kind of in charge and like a strong woman finding a man
That's comfortable with that. Yeah and allows you to be that
Makes you respect them even more. I am that. Yeah
You are somebody I am. Oh real quick. I want to mention. I forgot to mention this real quick. I'm sorry. I won't forget
Cliali and I and saw a documentary that her name called you didn't finish it. You fell asleep called crib camp
I watched a fifth
Yeah, trip camp and a Brock and um
Um, Michelle Obama produced it and it got it got also nominated for an Academy Award. It was about um
A camp in the early 70s
Um that started in the 60s when they actually started in the 50s of yeah, that's the documentary of
people with disabilities would go to this this camp and it was like they um
It was a bunch of hippies ran it
Oh, right. So it was the first time in their lives where they weren't being judged, right?
They could not feel so self-conscious. They they they yeah, they were not sidelined. They could smoke make out
They would make out fuck
Just be teenagers be teenagers, right?
And it really was and you know, I have to admit um in my not recently but early on in my comedy career
I would make fun of
Crips
No, I would make fun of disabled people. You know, I mean not in a harsh way, but you know
Anything goes in comedy or whatever in my mind and it's like, you know, I I'm no longer gonna do that
You know that that documentary really just kind of made me, you know, I mean
respect
Because they're just anyway. It was a really good documentary. That's good. I love that highly. I highly suggest it
Um, anything you want to plug wasn't funny watching them have sex in wheelchairs. Was that they didn't have that footage, but I would have jerked off
I was like show it. Show it. You know what I mean? Sure. Sure. Um a wheelie
Papa chub and a wheelie at the same time fun
Do you want to want to plug anything? No, just cat bandana.com. Oh cat bandana. Don't you have a you have a pond?
Not anymore. We stopped doing what we were doing. Yeah, we're thinking it was called um
This week in the 90s and we would talk about things that happened that week in the 90s
Who are you doing with my boyfriend? Yeah over the pandemic and then I started working on the after party
The netflix show was spade and then it would just became like too much
Are you still working with spade? Yeah, I still work with him, but we're on hiatus right now. So
I don't I have to say about him. Um
You know, I hung out with him last week went to dinner. Uh, and then he loves going to dinner
Yeah, I know in a couple weeks before that I went to his house. We watched the fights
Um, he you know, if you were gonna have a boss
Right. Yeah one of
The nicest guys that you could have as a boss one of the best
Be honest you if you were my boss, I would say the same thing
But yeah, he is uh, because you're also very nice and generous and
You know, I when I got that job
I had just found out I was pregnant and I was like I had like 26 weeks on the road coming up
And I was like, what am I gonna do? Like I can't
Fly this much and I had had a miscarriage the year before so I was really worried about something flying so much and that happening and like all this stuff
And uh, so I told them I was like listen nobody knows this yet
But like I have to tell you like I'm pregnant, you know, so like I can only work for you for nine months, you know
And uh, they're like, oh, that's fine. Like who cares, you know and spade was like do you care if we talk about it ever?
And I'm like sure and then that became like the whole arc of the you know, not the whole arc
Yeah, we used it all the time. Yeah. Yeah the point where now people don't recognize me because I'm not
Pregnant like we we moved to Encino we and my neighbor saw my lights out jack and she was like, oh my god
We love that we watched it every day. And I was like, oh, thanks. And
She was like there was this pregnant girl on the show that was so funny
And I'm like standing there with the baby and I'm like, yeah, that's me and she's like, no, no, no
She was like blonde and she had like she was like and I'm like, no, no, no, that's
Yeah, yeah, yeah
But just like always let me like take time for appointments and you know, like just like very
Generous caring like kind. Yeah, this is I don't know what I don't know what happened to him, but he's
You know, he's just unusually nice. He's also the only
Person I think you know, like one of those guys that's like so willing to make fun of himself
And he's so generous with laughter like he wants you to kill all the time. So he's very giving
To like, yeah, that's what yeah, he wants you to kill. He's not nervous or afraid that like you're gonna look better than
You know, like he's just he has a lot of confidence, but he also loves making fun of himself
Which is so rare in late night, too
Yeah, do you also worked with the cable guy, right?
Oh, I worked with him a long time ago. I worked on his website, but I didn't tour with him. Oh, you didn't tour with him?
No, no, no, I've always wanted to meet him. Is he nice so nice. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I went to his house in Nebraska
That's right. I remember you flying out there. Yeah. Yeah
Yeah, yeah
I like riding his four-wheelers and stuff and his wife was like super pregnant at the time, but she was like shooting birds in the lake
And I was like, I think they were like eating her fish or something and she was all
What's his real name? Larry? Dan. Larry Dan. No, Dan Whitney is his name. Oh, Dan Whitney. I didn't know that. Yeah
Well, I have to say, um
You know, I'm I'm leaving town, but um, when you picked up yesterday and you said you would do this
um
