Hey, what's up y'all? This is Eric Andre. Well, I made a podcast called Bombing about absolutely tanking on stage. I tell gnarly stories and I talk to friends about their worst moments of bombing in all sorts of ways. Bombing on stage, bombing in public, bombing in life. I want to know what's the worst way they ever bombed or have they ever performed way too drunk or high or was there ever a time where they thought they were going to crush and they stunk it up. Listen to Bombing with Eric Andre on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Bombing with Eric Andre. What would you do if mysterious drones appeared over your hometown? I started asking questions. What do you remember happening on that night of December 16th? It actually rotated around our house, looking as if it was peering in each window of our home. I'm Gabe Linners from Imagine, I Heart Podcasts and Linners Entertainment.

Hi, I'm Kristin Davis and I want to know, are you a Charlotte? All right. Hi. Hi, everyone. Welcome back to Are You a Charlotte? We are going to do a whole episode of fan questions. You guys have been amazing and have written in some really, really good questions.

So my incredible and handsome producer Easton is going to read the questions to me. That's what you told me to say, you guys. No, I'm paraphrasing. But anyway, he is handsome and he's incredible and super smart, I will add. So he's here to read the questions. And these were questions that you guys wrote in on Instagram. And I really appreciate it. Cause part of why I did this podcast was so that I could kind of talk to you guys and hear your thoughts and hear your questions.

And I love to hear them. So thank you. Thank you for that lovely introduction, Kristen. Well, I'm blushing over here, but let's get to the red hot questions. Okay. Let's start with this one. Who was your favorite boyfriend who only appeared in one episode and wish he could have appeared more? I mean, first of all, I'm sure there's so many, right? But the one that popped immediately into my mind is Dan Futterman, who plays a guy that we kind of, um, horribly called metrosexual at the time. I am sure that that is not cool anymore, but there's a mice that runs through his kitchen and he squeals and jumps on a chair

and Charlotte has to deal with it. And I just loved Danny Futterman so much. He's so smart. He's a writer now. I don't know if he's still acting, but he's definitely writing. And he's an incredible guy. And we had the best incredible, incredible time together.

He was just a really great collaborator, but there have been so many incredible actors on our show. It's hard to choose. It's hard to choose. But that's my first thought. Besides Harry, who do you think is the best match for Charlotte? I mean, again, this is terrible, what I'm about to say, but I'm gonna say Trey. I mean, it's so sad. I know it's so sad that I even, again, this is terrible what I'm about to say, but I'm gonna say Trey. I mean, it's so sad.

I know it's so sad that I even say that, but it's, for me, playing the part of Charlotte, obviously, for so long, it's really hard to separate my own feelings from Charlotte's experience. So I loved working with Kyle McLaughlin so incredibly much. Kyle was only supposed to be on for like five episodes, I wanna say, which obviously we all really just felt madly in love

with him and he had to stay and then it went in so many different crazy ways but I just remember the joy of being with him the fun of working we just it was a great energy and I loved, I guess I loved that Charlotte got what she wanted in so many ways. Obviously she didn't get what she wanted in terms of the entire package and this is the learning curve for Charlotte. So I did love the storyline overall, even the hard parts,

because I felt like, yes, it's perfect that someone who is so goal obsessed and so focused on the prize, what she perceives to be the prize, which was the wedding, the fantastic wedding, the handsome husband, you know, everything looking perfect on the outside and then it wasn't perfect on the inside.

That was so brilliant of Michael Patrick to come up with it and it was so amazing to get to play out that storyline and I thought it was so incredibly relatable and a really great way for her storyline to go. So I just loved the whole thing, even though obviously it was very difficult. But I still have just such a, I only have a wonderful memory of Kyle.

But he seems like the coolest guy in the world. So that's- And he is, let me tell you, he is. But he's also goofy and silly. And I just saw him on Saturday night. And it was really fun. And I don't even know if I should tell you everything that we talked about,

but there's another question coming. I'll just jump ahead to it. And it was, you know, would Trey and Charlotte ever run into each other on and just like that? And Michael Patrick has this thing where he doesn't like us to talk about ideas for stories that didn't happen. But I'm just gonna tell you guys that there was an idea that that Trey slash Kyle would come on and dress like that. And

then it didn't happen. And so Kyle and I had to talk about it because I was kind of mad at him. I said, why didn't you come on? We wanted you to come on. And he said, I just wanted it to be amazing, meaning that it had a kind of almost a sad note. I think I'm not saying too much. I hope Michael's not gonna be mad at me. There was a bit of a sad note, but it had this incredible lead up to me seeing Trey again.

And the thing that I love the most about this particular episode that did not happen is that Charlotte tells the friends that she has not communicated at all with Trey, which is kind of shocking in a way. But I've never been married and I've certainly never been divorced, so I don't really know how that works.

Do you communicate? Do you not communicate? Is it cool to be friends? Is it not cool to be friends? I mean, for Charlotte, she's obviously so happy with Harry. I don't think it would be a threat to Harry for her to communicate with Trey because of the problems with that relationship also, right?

But for whatever reason, Charlotte tells the friends and just like that, that she has not communicated in any way with Trey this whole time. And she has kind of an unfinished feeling about that relationship and she really wants to see him. in any way with Trey this whole time. And she has kind of an unfinished feeling about that relationship and she really wants to see him. And I, Kristen, also feel that way.

So I'm hoping that we can kind of revisit a, maybe they run into each other, you know, just at an event or at a restaurant or something like that. I think it would be so amazing to have Kyle back on. And I did give him a hard time the other day. And then he explained his point of view and I did understand it. Like when you have played such a wonderful part

in the past that people have such a great memory of, and it was so special as a work experience, you know, you want it to be, you want it to kind of stay in this kind of glorious place. And I think he just didn't want there to be kind of a sad note to the end. So I get that. I get that. And I hope I didn't say too much, Michael Patrick. Sorry. But I enjoy seeing him. I always enjoy seeing him.

Well, now we're going to talk about the other ladies here. Are you team big or team Aiden for Carrie? Well, rewatching is just giving me a whole different perspective. I was always team big. Sorry, yes. Yes, I was team big because Charlotte was team big. And this is the kind of the problem with playing a part for 30 years or whatever it is, 27 years, is that you don't separate out your own thoughts all the time, right?

So in the beginning, I was team big and I didn't really doubt it. You know, I just thought like, yes, I get that because they have this incredible chemistry in life and on screen. And I thought the writing was so good. Now when I'm looking back on it, I'm like, no, no, no. Why is he not nicer to her and more emotionally present. And she deserves more than this. This is what I think when I'm rewatching it.

Now, Aiden, on the other hand, we haven't gotten back to that part of the show where I'm going to rewatch that. I might change my mind. But the way that I remember Aiden was that he was much more emotionally present and kind of like more warm and fuzzy. I don't know how to put it, and more earthy, you know, he makes furniture, right? Like, I love that side. Now, I also know that there were some stylistic problems, like the part that really stands out to me that I totally agreed with at the time was that he gets her

this engagement ring that is wrong, wrong, and many times wrong for her, and why isn't he paying better attention? Why doesn't he know that a gold pear-shaped diamond is the wrong engagement ring for Carrie? That is one question that I have and I'm interested to see when I re-watch it. Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered who or what was flying around up there? We've seen planes, helicopters, hot air balloons, and birds, but what if there's something else, something much more ominous that appears under the cover of night, silent,

unseen, watching. They may be right above your car late one night as you cruise down the road or look like mysterious lights hovering above your home. Drones, or are they? We used to work drone because it was comfortable to other people. One minute it was there and one minute it wasn't.

Oh, that is beyond creepy. Do you feel like this drone was targeting you specifically? Yes, absolutely. Listen to Obscurum, Invasion of the Drones, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Have you ever wished for a change but weren't sure how to make it? Maybe you feel stuck in a job or a place or a relationship.

Join me, Emily Tish Sussman, over on She Pivots, where I explore the inspiring pivots of women, dig deeper into the personal reasons behind them, and leave you with the inspiration you need to make your next pivot. Every Wednesday, I sit down with women like Kamala Harris, Vanessa Hudgens, and armchair expert host Monica Padman. This March, we are continuing to uplift women in honor of Women's History Month with episodes from powerhouse Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

I fell in love with public policy and that's kind of when I pivoted. Then later we dive into the rise of women's sports to learn how leaders like sports investor Carolyn Tisch Blodgett and former Gotham FC champion turn coach Michelle Bados are shaping the industry.

The five families did not want us to shoot that picture. Leave the Gun, Take the Canole is based on my co-host, Mark's bestselling book of the same title.

And on this show, we call upon his years of research to help unpack the story behind the godfather's birth from start to finish. This is really the first interview I've done in bed. We sift through innumerable accounts, many of them conflicting, and try to get to the truth of what really happened. And they said, we're finished, this is over. They know this is not going to work.

You gotta get rid of those guys. This is a disaster. Leave the Gun, Take the Canole features new and archival interviews with Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Evans, James Kahn, Talia Shire, and many others. Yes, that was a real horse's head.

Hey, y'all. I'm Maria Fernanda Diaz. My podcast, When You're Invisible, is my love letter to the working class people and immigrants who shaped my life. I get to talk to a lot of people who form the backbone of our society, but who have never been interviewed before.

Season two is all about community, organizing, and being underestimated. All the greatest changes have happened when a couple of people said, this sucks, let's do something about it. I can't have more than $2,000 in my bank account or else I can't get disability benefits. They won't let you succeed. I know we get paid to serve you guys, but like be respectful. We're made out of the same things, bone, body, blood. It's rare to have black male teachers.

Sometimes I am the lesson and I'm also the testament. Listen to When You're Invisible as part of the MyCultura podcast network. Available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. We all love Harry so much. Uh, did you know that he was going to be the one for Charlotte when he was introduced?

Yes, I did. I did. I mean, look, now when you say the one, like, did I know in my mind that we were going to get to make two films and then do another show and just like that? No! Never, ever, ever, ever would have entered my mind. But I did know from Michael, Michael is very wonderfully collaborative with the actors.

And so for all four of us, before we started a season, we would have a lunch with Michael, where he would tell you everything that was gonna happen. He would pitch the season to you. And you would mostly, for me, go like, okay, okay, okay, okay, that's exciting, okay. And then sometimes if you had a question, you'd be like, but why, no, no, no,

and he'd have a reason and you'd kind of discuss. And it wasn't always written in stone. For instance, at one point, the idea was that Miranda and Charlotte would have babies around the same time. And the idea was that we would then contrast the two parenting styles from Miranda and Charlotte who are obviously very different. And I was very excited about that because that's what Charlotte wanted, right?

So I was like, oh, thank God she's going to get what she wants. It's going to be wonderful. Then of course it didn't happen. And the reason it didn't happen is that at a certain point in the season, Michael called me and he said, Kristen, I've gotta tell you, Charlotte is not gonna get to have a baby.

And I said, what? What? Why? What do you mean? I was so upset. And he said, you know, I just don't have enough storylines to do both. It's just too hard because Michael wasn't a parent.

At that point, I don't think any of our female writers were parents yet. They are now a lot of them, some of them not, you know? But we needed, at that point we also had a rule that, and we still have this rule, that all of the storylines had to be either a storyline that the writer went through themselves or that was one degree separated from the writer.

So they had a friend who went through it. It was never us. Everyone thought that it was our storylines. No, no, no, that would be very weird. It was our writers and people that they know. They're very close friends. So there just weren't enough parents in the group at that point to have enough storylines

to write two different contrasting mothering storylines. And it was just too far, I think, separated from Michael's own life and the women who were writing the show at that time. And we can ask Jenny Bix about this when she comes. It was too, too different from their lives for them to write about. And I was so crushed, so crushed.

But then, in the way that it played out, in terms of Miranda getting pregnant by mistake, deciding to have the baby with Steve, Charlotte not being able to get pregnant with her super adorable husband, that was the whole purpose of getting married. It really worked out so perfectly. It was difficult to play that,

and I didn't really even at that point in life probably have a really true understanding of what not being able to get pregnant is like. I think I had a few friends that were struggling with that at that point, but not the many, many, many friends who've struggled over the years. But I think I had some sense of it and I really enjoyed the writing.

So it worked out great. I don't know if I answered your question though. Harry, so then when we got Harry, after that not being able to get pregnant, which was obviously a curve ball in that season, and I did know the general plan that Michael had, that it was gonna be somebody who didn't look like what Charlotte wanted.

I didn't know what that meant, or that he was gonna be, I think he was described as a bull in a china shop at one point, like just his general demeanor was different, all of those things. And I don't know if Evan and I have talked about this publicly, but there was this other actor, it just feels terrible, I'm not gonna say his name,

there's this other actor who auditioned also. So what would happen is they would have a character, they would put out a casting notice with like the general notes about the character. And then when it got down to two or three guys, we would get to read with them so that we would get to have a vote. And also they would be able to see us together to know if they thought that the chemistry worked or whatnot.

So there was this other actor that Michael had seen in a play, and he just kept raving about this guy like on and on and on. And I think that was really who he had in mind, right? But they had to show me someone else. So Evan was the someone else. So I go, and it is the most horrific thing to be an actor in a callback type, final callback type situation for another actor,

because you just are dying for that person. You're just like, for me, I just want to take care of them so bad. I'm trying to be friendly and nice because sometimes it's just really intimidating. And you know, everyone in our world takes everything very seriously. I think that's clear.

So it's like a lot of pressure. Like, you know, it's not like casual, you know? It's not like a loose room to walk into. You know what I'm saying? It's like pretty serious. So I'd be out in the waiting room, like, are you guys okay? Do you need anything? You know, just dying.

Like if Sir Jessica was reading with guys, I would go to see those guys so that I could be like, are you guys okay? What's happening? I usually often knew people as well because I know a lot of actors. So I would know usually people. I had never met Evan.

I had never met the other guy either that I'm not gonna name. And the thing that was amazing about Evan is that he just made some choices. You know, he brought in a bag with a big, big, big muffin in it. And in, and this, I think we taped it, but I mean, it was in the room, right?

He just took this muffin out of this bag and just stuffed it in his mouth. Then I was just like him. So I feel bad about that other actor, but obviously it was Evan. So, you know, it worked out. Well, you know, true love conquers all. A lot of fans had questions about storylines.

Yeah. In your opinion, to you, what was the most shocking storyline that you can remember? Of any character? Yeah. Ooh, golly. Anything you saw in Sex and the City, that you lived in Sex and the City.

Gosh, shocking. The most shocking. I don't know. I don't know, you guys. What was the most shocking? I can't think. Any thoughts? Any ideas? The things that are most shocking? I can't think, any thoughts, any ideas? The things that are really shocking, I tend to forget about.

Well, hold on. Now I'm thinking, if I get to talk about all the shows and the movies, the most shocking thing was Big Standing Carry Up at the wedding. That was really, really bad, okay? Now I know we wouldn't have had a movie without it. I get that, I totally get that.

And thank God the movie was much seen and beloved and we're so grateful for that because it was a really big risk. But that was really bad, okay? Really, really bad. And I can't believe she forgave him. Just can't believe it. Still.

Okay, next. Most embarrassing storyline. Does anything stand out to you there? Oh, next. What most embarrassing storyline, does anything stand out to you there? Oh, sure. I mean, in the show, this is gonna sound ridiculous, but in the show, this is so silly, and probably like petty, but there was a storyline with Evan and I, Harry and I,

where we go out on Valentine's Day and eat a bunch of French cheese and have like digestive problems and lay on the floor in t-shirts. And I just hated the storyline so much. And it was our writers, Julie and Elisa Horan and just like that. And I went to them and I was like, please, do we have to? Why?

And they're like, because it's so funny. And I think, I feel, I don't know for sure, but like think it was based on someone had gone to France and this had happened to them because they have so many decadent cheeses that we're not used to here. But I didn't like that. I didn't want to lay on the floor in the bathroom with Evan in stained t-shirts. Ick.

Now then, that is second to what Michael put me through in Mexico with the water, which I'm not even going to go into detail because everyone knows. And I mean, honestly, I still have to talk about it in interviews. And I'm like, thank you, Michael Patrick King for doing this to me. Now we know Charlotte has her rules. Which rule from the series do you think was too strict? I think Charlotte's rules are probably all too strict. And I say this as a mom who has a lot of rules, right?

So I think Charlotte, you know, it's like her, what's the saying like, don't let perfection be the enemy of something. See, I don't even remember the saying. This is clearly my issue also. Don't let perfection be the enemy of something. See, I don't even remember the saying. This is clearly my issue also. Don't let perfection be the enemy of good. Yes, don't let perfection be the enemy of good. This is a good, Charlotte needs this

like scrawled on her wall really big or maybe on her mirror because you know, the striving for perfection at all times is hard on people, right? Like the people around her, her kids, also herself. So I think all of that, and in the beginning, it's all about this theoretical husband that she's trying to find,

and she brings the book about the rules, and this book about how to get a husband in six months, or something bizarre, and I had to read this book, and like hold it and kind of thump it like you know this book that was really challenging for me personally because I obviously do not feel that way and I also feel like it's just slightly insane but obviously sometimes your character is gonna do something insane that you're playing and you have to find a way to do it I would say probably that book moment which I think is coming soon in season one

or maybe season two, that might've been the most extreme time that she didactically was following a actual literal book in her life, which is bizarre. If Charlotte could give advice to her younger self, what would she say? Well, along these same lines, I think that the advice Charlotte would say to her younger self is what would she say? Well, along these same lines, I think that the advice Charlotte would say

to her younger self is relax a little bit because it's all gonna work out. It's all gonna be amazing. And it might not be exactly how you think it's gonna look, but it's all gonna be so great. And don't mind that your friends roll their eyes so much at you because they're all gonna be fine too

and they really love you. That's great advice. Thank you. Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered who or what was flying around up there? We've seen planes, helicopters, hot air balloons, and birds. But what if there's something else, something much more ominous, that appears under the

How do you deal with like crowd control when you guys are filming outside on the streets of New York? How does that work?

You know, it depends on the day and the situation. It's very interesting. Like we're always so amazed when people come out. Sometimes it's so hot. So Jessica and I did a walk and talk in the village this summer. It was at least a hundred degrees and there were so many people crammed on this little block. We had quite a big set up, like with cranes and lights and so many different things. And they were so great.

Like if we asked them, like, please be quiet during rolling, everyone's very quiet. It's amazing. So you've got regular street sounds, but you don't want a crowd sound, right? Because that would make us unable to film. So I think everyone just really gets committed to, you know, making the scene work, which is so adorable and really like incredibly sweet. The first time we went back to do and just like that, it was also very hot that summer. And I remember being with Mario and Alexa down in this basement of the Hotfellas.

It was not the Hotfellas that we have now, but the original Hotfellas kitchen that he borrowed. It was also like a hundred something degrees. It was late into the night, 2 or 3 AM. There's just this huge crowd outside. We were downtown somewhere and Alexa, who was 11 at the time, was like, why are all those people out there?

She didn't really fully grasp what had happened before and just like that and we would try to explain it. She'd just be like, oh, well I had never really heard of it. We'd be like, that's okay, you're loving, it's okay. But it's just so sweet to us that people wanna come and everyone's always been incredibly helpful. Occasionally it's weird if they're filming us while we're filming,

because we don't want to give away storylines. But people are usually very polite with we ask them don't film right now, they're cool. People are amazing. Yeah, I mean, that's another question is like, if you're filming stuff, obviously no one's going to see for months. Do you ever film like fake stuff to throw?

We have, we have. I think everyone knows what I'm talking about. We definitely filmed on at least two occasions I can think of, like decoy scenes. I was not involved in any of the decoy scenes. And at this point, I don't know, I think Michael Patrick has started to write the important scenes, having them inside.

Which is really helpful. But we have filmed some decoy scenes. I think everyone kind of knew that they were, you know, we didn't really totally pull it off, I don't think. But that's okay. I think the thing for us that's hard is like, we love the fans, but we also really want people to be able to experience the show for the first time, right?

To see the storylines for the first time, not to have everything already rehashed on social media before it's even actually happened. And sometimes that's frustrating. Like people will say like, why are they all wearing this? Or why is this character wearing this? And there is a reason, but we can't tell you the reason because we want you to enjoy the storyline when we do it.

You know? Yeah. Is there a character that you think left Sex in the City too early that you would like to see return? And just like that well as we mentioned Kyle McLaughlin I mean, I don't know if he left too early because that was how the storyline needed to go at the time But we would love to have him back. I think I would and I'm pretty sure Michael Patrick would I mean, we've had so many incredible people and I never want anyone to ever leave, you know?

But we don't have enough time on screen really. I'll tell you who we have on Just Like That, which was so much fun, was Patti LuPone. Patti LuPone is coming. It's so exciting! I mean, so many people though, so many people. You know, we had Andy Cohen you know, Cohen on way back in a tiny little role.

And then I think we had him come back briefly, but I think he should come back more. That'd be fun. So excited about that. Looking back on your memories of Sex in the City, is there one day on set that you wish you could like magically transport back to? Gosh, I mean, probably so many really.

Like I remember one time, I don't know where we were. We were downtown, I think at a shoe store and it was hot and it was late. And we were just laughing. I think we'd all fallen asleep on the set. Usually we would go back to our trailers, but sometimes it's logistically hard to go back to our trailers. But I just's logistically hard to go back to our trailers.

But I just remember laughing hysterically and I used to have this whole ritual that I would do that I think Sarah Jessica's talked about, where I would wait until like, you're just at the end of your rope and you're so tired and you don't have energy. And I would have my Diet Coke. And I don't drink Diet Coke anymore,

but at the time I was still drinking Diet Coke. And I would get my Diet Coke and I would wrap it in paper towels so that it didn't drip on my clothes. And I would also, if we were really doing this as a group, we would get McDonald's French fries. And we would eat them together and it would be incredible because normally I try to be healthier than that, but it would be so good. And it would be something that we would look forward to at say like 2 a.m., 3 a.m. I also remember so many fun nights where we would work till like maybe six or seven whenever the sun rose on Saturday morning and a lot of us would be going out

to the Hamptons, cast and crew. And so we were, obviously we'd been up all night and we were so tired, we would do like a caravan. And I would usually ride with Sarah Jessica and we would just like drop people off in whichever Hamptons they were in and make sure that they got there safely because we were all so tired.

And that was really, really fun. And sometimes we'd get out and get something at a store, like, you know, 7-Eleven and like switch cars. It was really, really fun. I remember things like that. I mean, so many things, but I mean, also we had such an incredible time in Morocco for the second movie.

Oh God, I would go back there in a second. Anyway, so many, so many, so many it's hard to even think of. Also, the Central Park, so many incredible times shooting in Central Park, it was beautiful, also cold. But I remember one time, Cynthia and Sarah and I were walking down the promenade, which is one of my all-time favorite parts of the park. And I'm wearing my full Burberry raincoat,

which I still have in my closet. And I think there's an umbrella involved, and it was possibly first or second season. It was just so magical to get to film in Central Park. Oh, truly magical. Isn't it? Do you remember... How did it feel

when you finished filming season six? Oh, I remember it because there's pictures of it too. It was horrible. Because we really, I don't know actually, now that I'm thinking of it, I don't know if we really thought it was the end or not. But let me tell you this, we cried and cried and cried and cried. And Sarah Jessica Parker cried.

And Sarah Jessica is not a crier. I don't know if you're aware of this. Because at that point, I think we believed there was going to be a film. We hoped there was going to be a film, but it hadn't been greenlit. So it was kind of this unknown thing of like, can we move to this next phase that we really, really wanted to move to? And we believed we were going to move to, but at the same time you don't really know.

So it could actually be the end, which was just impossible to actually believe. Like, I was just like, why? Why are we ending? And I knew, I know intellectually why, and I understand intellectually why, but it just didn't personally make sense for me like for me I Never wanted it to end as I never do now, right?

But like back then especially I just felt like this is so dumb people. We're just being so dumb We have this incredible thing. Why are we doing this? No, sorry if I just deafened everyone, but obviously it worked out It worked out fine But like we cried and cried and there was a scene in that final episode where Charlotte is supposed to cry because she believes Carrie's moving to Paris. And I had to cry for the entire day. And I did it and it was good at the beginning. I was like, yes, I need to cry

because also we were ending the show. But even then, by then, by the time that we actually had our final day of filming, I think I was somewhat depleted of tears because of the filming day of crying. But Sarjessica was not depleted of tears. So when she cries, I cry, basically. We have time for one more question here.

Okay. Do you have a favorite Charlotte quote? Wow. A question I don't know the answer to. Honestly, I have no idea. Because you know what's funny is like, I'm not objective. I don't remember the answer to. Honestly, I have no idea. Because you know what's funny is like, I'm not objective, I don't remember the stuff I said. That's why re-watching is so fascinating.

I don't remember hardly anything that I say. I remember experiences of filming, or maybe what the others said, or like I have visual memory, but I don't really remember words as well. I don't know. Everyone should write in and tell me what they liked that I said. I don't know. I don't know you guys as well. Yeah. I don't know. Everyone should write in and tell me what they liked

that I said. Yes. I don't know. I don't know you guys. You tell me, okay? This was so much fun. Thank you for answering these questions. Thank you, Sten.

Thanks for asking me. Thank you for fans asking them. We love it. We'll do more of it. See you guys right in. Bye. Hey, what's up y'all? This is Eric Andre. Well, they made a podcast called Bombing about absolutely tanking on stage.

I tell gnarly stories and I talk to friends about their worst moments of bombing in all sorts of ways. Bombing on stage, bombing in public, bombing in life. I want to know what's the worst way they ever bombed or have they ever performed way too drunk or high or was there ever a time where they thought they were going to crush and they stunk it up?
