Hey, it's your dear friend, Tignotaro, sitting here on the handsome podcast with my co-hosts. May Martin, also sitting here on a handsome podcast and joined finally by...

It's Fortune Famster, also sitting here. Hmm, we are sitting here, which is different places. Yeah, we're sitting in different places, but we're yes-anding. Mm-hmm. Yes, and. Yes, and. Yes, and. Go on, May. Yes, and. And it makes me feel connected when we yes-and.

sand it's so nice being connected because it feels bad when you're not connected i wish we all lived in the same body oh wow okay and i'm out can i'm out if we all had to it was all three of our minds but in one body and so we had to take turns being like can i be in control today like because I want to go sit in a bench or like can I be on control yeah so one person would be in control at a time yeah sort of driving the ship while the other two just have to sit there that would definitely be a lot of communicating with each other and negotiating which may would like that's all I want yeah yeah here's my question what if like may what if you turned into and and maybe you are but like a massive control freak it has to all be you um you need to decide everything um

what do what do what do us little pretty little ladies do well because the way i'm picturing it is like in that movie inside out is that what it's called where where it's like we're numb skulls like the three of us are sitting inside a brain and we're being like can i get a turn on the control so yeah you guys are just have to talk amongst yourselves and i'd i know but what if you were taking too much control? Like, you were like, I still, I don't want to let go of this. I just, it feels too good to have this kind of power. So we're going to another escape room.

Yeah, it sounds good to me. I mean, you guys would have to like forcibly take the controls back. Mm-hmm. I think. And how do we do that, though? This is your made up hogwash. Overpower me, overpower me physically. I think I would just pipe up when it came to like ordering food.

Yeah, you'd be pretty inimitable with everything else. See, there'd be a problem because TIG is a vegan and really genuinely loves healthy food. And I would be like, oh, I'm really feeling naughty today. Well, so wait, are you saying that we have like one mouth? Yeah, one mouth. It's like being John Malkovich, but there's three of us inside. Tiggs out now. And Stig's like, oh, now you're out?

She's like, I don't want to eat the garbage food that Fortune eat. But Fortune, we could wait until take falls asleep. And then we order, like, whatever we want. You do late night cravings while I'm asleep. That's right. Look, I like a snack and a treat and, you know, basket of fries and chips and a cookie more than the next pretty little lady. But, you know, it's more of like burgers. Yeah, stuff like that.

It's the meat. Yeah. It's the meat. dairy but listen here oh but cheese is so tasty you know i love me a charcutory board we do we know that and so you're saying fortune uh-huh that it would just be wonderful to just spend the day um rolling around uh not worrying about anything except here comes the it's meal time yeah maybe the three of us could be in thomas's skull taking and we're wearing control of Thomas's day, you know?

Interesting. What would we do? Sort his life out, I think. Not that it needs sorting. Yeah, do you need your life sorted out by us? We're going to sort this out. I need your help. Thomas is off the rails again.

Oh, my gosh. What's on your T-shirt there, Tick? And Fortune. Let's talk T's. Let's talk T's. I got Georgia. Georgia, very nice. It's for the University of Georgia.

Go dogs. My mom went there. All right. And this is KCRW. It's that radio? Yeah, it's public radio. Yeah, you're listening to KCRW. Which is exactly how public radio hosts sound.

Hey, hey, what's up? Thanks for tuning in to KCRW. So what would it be more like, hello, everyone. Thank you for tuning in today. What a pleasure it is to be talking to all of you. I just got up from a now. with my listeners. It would be like, when we think about memory, where do we go in our minds?

Is it to a physical place? Are you suggesting that people on public radio have sinus issues? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm thinking of, well, is Ira Glass public radio, like this American life? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Because he's sort of like, today on the podcast, we're talking to people who, was that pretty good?

I would not have guessed that that's, I don't know. I'll be honest. I would have guessed May Martin doing public radio. That's so funny. I was just about to say that. If I heard that, I would say, who is May trying to impersonate right now? Never in a million years would I have guessed Ira Glass. My apologies.

Have you guys been up to anything fun? I just got back from Tiff and had the premiere of my show there, and that was really, it felt like my wedding. Oh, yeah? Yeah, I've never had a wedding, but I assume it's like that. You were the bell of the ball. Well, it was like friends from the past. And even in the show, like there's an... No friends from the future?

No, well, how would I know? Maybe the whole audience. But yeah, like even there's a guy in the show, Mark McKinney, who is from that show's Superstore and Kids in the Hole. And he, I babysat for him when I was 13, and he's in the show. So it was just like a lot of full circle, like, yeah. Yeah. And the show is kind of based on my friend getting sent to this troubled teen institute. And so she came and then that was more emotional than I anticipated. It was like, man, we've like transmuted this awful experience. And she was a consultant on the show and it was just nice. And y'all get to watch the show on a big screen? Yeah. We watched two episodes. Guys, listen, you've been in movies. You guys have done, I've never seen myself on a big screen like that. That was wild. And how did the audience respond?

They seem to like it. Yeah, you know, who knows? We'll see. It comes out. I think it's going to be a hit. I can already tell. And did you like it? Were you like, this is awesome.

This looks great. It feels great. This is, this is it. I like it. Yeah. I like it. Obviously, I'm noticing like the tiny things where I, but I, yeah, I'm proud of it. It's kind of, I think if you go into it expecting like a,

procedural crime thriller you're going to be like disappointed but if you go in expecting a sort of twin peaksy sort of spooky then you might be you might be into it I'm excited well when this podcast airs it will have been out for five days so put it on in the background yeah our handsome listeners need to tune in yeah what if somebody went in with zero expectations that's ideal okay Yeah, that's so ideal. Yeah. What if they go in wanting love scenes like from Feel Good? There's one big sex scene.

Yeah, in there one insane? Like, is it full frontal? No, but it's almost worse. It's almost crazier. And I can't believe they let me keep it in because they made me take out a shot of my character injecting testosterone. They said that that would, in their test viewings, people turned off. And they were like, obviously it's up to you, but, you know, we could just lose the injecting testosterone.

I was like, obviously furious. And then I was like, well, if it's going to get people into the show and then if I'm allowed to have this insane sex scene in episode five, then I'm happy to compromise on little things because it's like. Everyone's forwarding to episode five. yeah oh man well i'm excited to watch it it was good i got to see tony colette doing press with her in toronto and she's we bring out like the witchy side like we went out kayaking under the full moon the eclipse and we i mean they were like you know don't go past this barrier out into lake ontario

and tony gets in the kayak immediately just kayaks out across the lake in under the full moon and She's, and we did spells and we wrote down what we want to release and dissolved it. It was good. Yeah. Now we're in the same canoe or separate? Separate kayaks. Oh, kayaks. Also known as being in the same boat.

That's my right. Good one. We were emotionally in the same boat. Yeah. And what was it like? Was it like, my. Here we go. Here we go.

Here we go. If I could, wait, what accent is that? We don't know. We don't. Yeah, we really didn't. Laser blades. Jennifer Lopez. Here's,

my, here's what I'd like to talk about. Jennifer Lopez. Wow. Wow. I'd really like to get rid of razor blades. That's a huge issue. Tony listens to the pod and every time there's an Australian accent,

she'll comment and be like, that's the worst thing I've ever heard. Tony? Yeah. I need you to calm down. I'm working. I'm looking on it. Horizon.

What have you been up to? Oh, you started filming. I did. I started filming this Will Ferrell show. Super fun. So far, everything I've shot is just Will and I, and it's such a trip. I'm like, I just can't believe I'm getting to go toe to toe with this, like, comedy legend. Yeah, seriously.

And find your, like, comedic groove together like that. And he's, like, such a nice. guy and chill vibe like we just set was just easy and we were out in the hot hot-ass sun it was like almost 100 degrees but everybody was like you know no no complaining just having a good time laughing it's pretty great we'll see how it goes day two I know that was my thought I was like so this was day one right yeah they do everyone's like oh F this And that's a wrap on season one. I'm like, it's amazing.

You've been there one day. Do you feel like when, you know, a production, you start to sniff out like, oh, boy, this is way more complicated. Have you ever been, like, I'm thinking about a, when I've been on shows where I guest art or something. And I'm like, God, everybody's so nice. And then people are like, well, I mean, you don't, there's a lot going on here. I had that when I did one guest role on Glee remember that show Glee they had a lot of drama on their sets I believe

and I filmed the second to the very last episode ever Oh my God The everyone was like checked out To the point where I didn't even know who the director was I think the DP was like telling me what to do like who's in charge here and so they all just

didn't like each other or whatever I think that they were like well Corey Monteth had passed away they were all grieving that I think that was like two seasons a couple seasons before the end they had just different clicks

and certain actors I think from what the rumors were at the time certain what actors didn't get along with the other actors. So they had their little teams. So I just didn't talk to anybody. Oh, no.

You just went in, put your head down, did your job. Although I'm friends with Chris Culfer. I love him. And he was delightful because he's a delightful guy. Yeah, he seems great. Yeah. Yeah, it's always just so amusing. I mean, it's a bummer, but it's just always so funny because everybody's so nice and

welcoming you've never been there and then you you find out everyone you know what it is too with a show like that is like uh i i randomly went to the premiere of that show because that when i was a journalist and you see everybody very like innocent and like i'm happy to be here it's when something blows up then then it's like you know two seasons later like oh my god what happened yeah yeah everyone needs to get in and get out one or two seasons and then and then get out, I think, before. Or people that when cast do not get along and then when they're going through press,

like we are, it's like a family here. And it is like a family in that you're about to kill each other. Yeah, right. And there's massive issues and a lot simmering underneath. Yeah. It's that, anyway, that's just always a funny surprise.

Because now when I say something to somebody on set, I'm like, everybody seems so nice. Is it like that? Or is there, you know what I mean? Because it's so, it's so rare that everybody really is just all good. I feel like often if you're a guest star on something and you show up and there's one cast member who's super nice to you, is like, hey, what's up? Often they're the troublemaker because they've alienated themselves from everyone else.

And they're like, this is a fresh slate. Yeah, yeah. Checking Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds on car insurance is smart. Unfortunately, not checking your coffee beans expiration date is not smart. If you're someone who doesn't make coffee too often, it might be a bit of a shock when you break out the beans for your house guests. Yeah, check in first is smart. So check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds.

And it's been Nana's big dream to be in England with Stephanie and the boys. And so she's flying over to be with us.

And so, and Max and Finn are really into drinking tea. And we start, like when they were three, we started having tea with them in which of course their tea was so lukewarm you know and but we would go and have tea in our front living room and talk and so we'd sit down with them with our teacups and we'd be like so let's talk and then and so they would talk and of course it was like three-year-old talk but to this day I mean it's stuck they love tea and they can't wait to go for high tea and yes I love a high tea Yeah, so anyway.

The museums in London for kids are so good. The Natural History Museum is amazing. Oh, okay, great. Yeah, yeah. I have good kid recommendations, I think. Do you need any recommendations for me? Also, I'm very familiar with this area. I thought this is a country accent.

First I thought it was southern. Yeah, I thought it was southern. No, it's my English accent. Thank you. not no it's not no no fortune it's not an english accent unfortunately not for like you i'm very excited to yourself listen to yourself listen say again and listen i'm very thank you i'm very excited for tea wow this is a this you have a lead role almost on a netflix series London, England. That's what you sound like. I was born and raised in London. How dare you?

Come on here. How dare you? Forge and Marie coming on here and acting like you're nailing any sort of accent across the pond. Wait, but also, Tig, you should take the boys to see Debbie. Get them some haircuts. Oh, yeah. Yes. Oh, Michael. I love Debbie. See, this is a good, impression. Take attention. I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah, let's hear it. Oh, twins, is it?

Oh, I haven't seen twins since 1980. I don't twins, is it? I haven't seen twins since forever. We have a neighbor, this elderly man, since Mac, well, when Max and Finn were babies and we would stroll them past his house up until maybe they were three. He would always say, twins. Oh, my God.

And the answer was always, yeah, yeah. Twins, twins, twins. Oh, my God. And so whenever we're walking past his house and he's out, Stephanie and I always go whisper to each other, twin. What's the longest that you and Stephanie have gone being apart? Yeah. Probably a month and a half.

Whoa. Really? Yeah. Was that hard? Yeah. I mean, I think I talked about it recently. It's like, it's nice to check into a hotel and kind of take a breather. But I do.

I miss her and I look forward to seeing her. But those kind of long stretches are really brutal. Tell me about it. Sometimes you're engaged at the start of it. And then by the end, you're just by yourself. Sometimes those long stretches are, yeah, is too long of a stretch. It's even longer and yeah, yeah. Will you have like, I know you're going to visit soon,

but then will there be like a really long stretch you don't see her? Yes. But luckily I'm going to see her. We're going to be there for her birthday. It'll be her 40th birthday. Oh, wow. And then she wraps on our anniversary. But we're very happy that at least one of the celebratory days will be together.

Yeah. I know this is a dumb, like, and also I know it's not cool to say, but will you meet Angelina? Oh, yeah, the movie is starring Angelina Jolie. And it's a small cast. It is. It's a small cast. I don't know if I'll meet her. I'm very interested, too, if possible.

Can you ask her to do a handsome question? Oh, my God. Can you imagine? That would be huge. Planet Earth would implode If she did a podcast I don't think she's ever done a podcast She's not a podcast gal

I saw her at Tiff I saw her back as she left So I showed up at you know when people magazine So you guys are tight Oh we're tight yeah Like her back has seen me But you know when they do like They bring puppies to photo shoots

And so people magazine I didn't know that was a thing Oh it's like it's a thing yeah So they'd set up a little studio and they had these rescue puppies and then all these celebrities are coming in and you one at a time you go and do and I'm like looking at there's James McAvoy and there and Tony knows everyone so I'm like I'm in heaven and there's puppies she's like look there's Jennifer Lopez hey look it's me Tony Colette there's Jennifer Lopez no no is that Jennifer Lopez is that Jennifer Lopez is that Jennifer

Lopez. Okay, go on. The Australian's getting better, but the British was so strange. Well, if one gets better, the other one gets worse. Oh, that's how it goes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So she, so I, and Angelina's there and then, and then me and Tony are like, we got to pee. And so. And I'm sorry, I wasn't listening. You're saying she was at TIF? Yes, at TIF. Okay, I'm back on track. Go on. And so I go up to one of the, you know, assistance working there. I'm like, is there a bathroom here we could views and they're like, uh, that one's, I think out of order. I'm like, I'm sure it's fine. We open the door and there's a giant turd floating in this toilet. I'm so sorry to bring the

pod down. I thought this part was going to be about Angelina Jolie. Yeah, I thought you were going to walk in and she's like, she was going to be there to half naked changing. Fortune, Marie. We were talking about Angelina Jolie's back and then it somehow went to a turd. Well, my point is, because then I go, is there another bathroom? They go, well, there's this gross one in the back that's like, you know, off limits, but you can try that. I go back. There's a turd in that one, too, and it's clogged. May, why are you telling us this disgusting story? And to say turd over and over, but the point is it was just funny. There is no point to the story, is there? The point is that there's no point. We just have to listen to disgusting information after you saw Angelina Jolie's back.

What does Angelina Jolie show up? The point is that we're in this small room with like more famous people than I've ever seen and I'm freaking out. And there's just turd toilets everywhere and no one can pee. And it's like, well, anyway, it wasn't a good story, but it was just funny. It was a disgusting story. If you're into disgusting things. Way to land this plane. Oh, God.

Did you see Angelia Jolie's front? No. I just saw it. No, they saw turds and toilets, Fortune. Were you not listening? I heard that, but I didn't know when we got back to Angelina Jolie. It's not getting back to. to Angelina. There was no reason to even mention the woman's back. I have a question. Because my point

was that it should be, there was no point. There is a point. No, it was disgusting. The point is it should be illegal to have a dirty toilet around Angelina Jolie. Angelina Jolie. Okay, here's my question. You both said it differently. What is the answer? Is it Jolie or Jolie? I thought it was Jolie. Jolie. I've never heard Jolie. Because it's fragile. I don't know. I mean, look at that accent. Jolie. Thomas, what is it? How does she say it?

Does she say Jolie or Jolie? I bet it's Jolie because it's French. Her mom was French. But Fortune doesn't think it is. She thinks it's just Jolie. Jolie. Well, that's really. Jolie.

Jolie, Jolie. There's a video of her pronouncing her own name. Do you want to watch it? We're all. What if it's really? wrong it's like jolly now we're sitting on the edges of our seats what happened to my co-host i'm sitting on the edge of my seat angelina hi jolly yes the emphasis on the jolly jolly jolly isn't that what i said she says jolly so i got it what i got it wrong i was saying jolly

wait what is it tom i'm confused i'm still confused i still hear jolly let's hear you're the closest I'll play it one more time. Let's hear it again. Everyone shut up. Angelina. Hi. Jolie. Yes.

The emphasis on the Joe. Jolie. Jolie. Yes. Teg's right. J'O. Jolie. The interviewer said Joe, emphasis on the Joe, and she says Joe.

Exactly. This is what I'm saying is everybody says it differently, and now here I might be meeting her within a few days. And you'll definitely go full name, too. You should say, what's up? Jolie. And she'll be. impressed emphasis on the joe yeah joey well this is a real mind effort i didn't uh i didn't anticipate that i've said it wrong this whole time and i hate to i hate to

dig in even deeper but you were saying abby's last name wrong too i did yes ma'am what is it it's not wombach it is not it's wambach wambach wambach look at fortune's face what fortune looks offended Wombok Yes Don't say it like that Wombok Yeah I think everyone

Here's what I think Hear me out There's certain This better not be a turd toilet No No turd toilet There's certain people whose names Have just in the

Zygeist Have become one thing Okay And most people Call that person that thing I think that person then has a duty to relinquish what the original plus. I think they have to give up what it was. And to be fair, you did just say duty.

You said this was not a turd talk. Yeah. And you did say everyone has a duty. You slip to duty in there. D, I, this is two. I think you have to just give into it and go, this is how my name is pronounced now. I mean, I do. I hate to.

All right. Feinster. No, no. No, no. No, everyone calls you Feimster. No, there's a handful of it says Feimster. No, Feimster, go on me.

Wambach? Yes. And Jolie. Happy Wambach. Thomas, can you pull up a video of Abby saying her name? Okay, go on. Everybody goes, Abby Wambach.

My instinct is like, obviously we owe everyone the respect of learning their names properly, but then I think about old Timitay Shalame. And I think, can he just, can we say Timothy Shalome? Like, he maybe needs to just relinquish control. Fortune is your head blowing up now again? Wait, what is his name not pronounced Timothy? No, it's timet.

Yeah, no one wants that. Well, no one wants that. Maybe, but it's, there's other cultures in the world. Timothy, no, it's a French name. No, I'm sorry. Oh, it's interesting. You have to go with what the culture wants. They don't want your name pronounced that way.

With what American culture wants specifically. Raven Simone, we've known that she's now correcting everyone and says it's actually Simone. I'm like, well, I'll never not think of you as Raven Simone. Oh my God, that's classic her. Is it not? You know? I'm kidding.

I don't. You don't know who that is. Wait, did I tell you, I'm on her, I told you I'm on her text thread. Are you? What? This is the weirdest thing in my life. I am on a group text thread with Raymond Simone. And it only happens in the holidays.

And there's not a number that I recognize. Oh, really? I don't know how I ended up on her holiday thread. I don't know if she knows I'm on it. That's bizarre. It is the funniest thing. I'll turn to Stephanie. I'll be like, look.

And it's like a yearly tradition. I've heard from Raven. Yes, ma'am. And Raven just is like wishing people a happy holiday. Yes, yeah. And everybody's chiming in like I'm part of the friend group or family. Maybe you're on a lesbian text thread that you don't know about. I know I am.

I'm telling you. But maybe it's all a bunch of lesbians on there. But then Tig would recognize some of the numbers. Abby Wambach. Abby Wombok. Okay, Thomas, did you find Abby saying her name. I'm going to be on a lesbian tech thread. Here we go. Here we go. Settle in. This is Abby Wambach number 20 with the U.S. Women's National Team. Wambach. It's sort of a soft ock. Wambach. Wambach. Wambach. This is Abby Wambach.

So are you saying that Raven, Simone previously, Thomas, this is the last time I'm going to do it. Will you pull up a video of her saying her name? Like has she said it previously or she's just now. Currently she's saying everyone's been saying it wrong for years. Right, but has she been saying it wrong? No, I don't know if back in the day, I would imagine back in the day she even said it how it was supposed to be said. You know, we really, we get into the important, the important stuff on this podcast. Yeah. About the most nonsense. If you want to know what's going on in the world. You got to tune in here. If you want to know, if you want hot button issues. If you want to know, I'm going to eat a brownie. Why are you having a brownie? I just got really hungry.

And it's the afternoon, and I need to eat something. Yes, you do. You need your afternoon snack time. Thomas, any luck on Simone? It's easier for people to just call me Raven Simone, but if you want to call me by my government name,

all right, it's Raven Simone. Okay, well, it's good to get all this cleared up, and it's good to know that it's Jolie, Jolie, and Simone. Wombok, and Wombok. And Wombok. Simone. And my.

Martine. My martini. Should we get to our question? Yeah. Hey, bud. Today's question Oscar is an Emmy winning and Tony nominated actor who first became known for her role in the Goonies. She starred in Raising Hope in the Real O'Neils and stars in the new HBO series about an FBI team task. Martha Plimpton is asking today's question. Nice. Hi, I'm Martha Plimpton. And here is my question for you all. My question is, now, regardless of whether or not you believe in astrology, how are you most like your astrological sign and how are you least like your astrological sign? I think that's a good, you know, you're getting a good juxtaposition there. Okay, great. Have you all seen that new show task? No, I can't wait though, because I love

I love Martha Plimpton. I know, it's pretty good. It's from the guy who created Mayor of East Town. Did you watch that show? Yeah, I loved that show. Mare of East Town is so good. Do you ever watch it, Tigg? No.

Tig. I think you, I think that would be a series worth you going and watching. I think you'd have a crush on Kate Winslet in that series. It's so good. Really? She is so badass. It's one of the best modern day TV series. It's a limited series.

You know, my name, my kids call me as mayor. It is mayor, yeah. Mayor of East Town, yeah. So I think you should watch it. So that guy that created that one and created this, so it still has that, is it Philly? Is that the area?

There are water. Yeah. Yeah, Philadelphia. Pennsylvania. Why just in that pocket of the country, do they say water? I don't know. Water.

For water? Yeah. Water. They're saying water? That's correct. Yes, sir. Oh, boy. this episode is really about phonetics and vowel sounds.

I would say it's, did you say bowel or vowel? Vowel? Because also bowel sounds. The Goonies is also one of the best movies of all time. It's so good. So she just does good work. And she just seems like someone I'd really get along with. Like she just sort of doesn't give a shit and speaks her mind and is.

Yeah. And she did River Phoenix back in the day. I know. And they were in a movie together that I love. Mm-hmm. What movie? Mosquito Coast? Hmm.

What's our signs are you guys? I'm Aries. I'm a cancer. Wow. Okay. What are you? Taurus. I don't know anything about Taurus and I don't know anything about Aries.

Okay. So why don't we each tell each other what our signs are about? And we might have to also tell TIG what her signs about. Yeah. But you know what yours is for, like you know what it means. Oh, yeah. I'm a cancer through and through. Okay.

Emotional. cancers are they're emotional sensitive yeah we have a hard shell like a crab that's our animal is a crab so we have a hard exterior thanks for the act out but we're soft on the inside and if you if you do us dirty we retreat but if you make us mad we snap you someone just rang my doorbell I would say that is where I'm not exactly like I get my moody is more I get quiet right but I'm not like a moody person yeah you don't strike me as like no big swings of mood yeah yeah so I differ there um but you I like security home life is important being at home we like to like get centered okay um oh Thomas just send us a thing about zodiac signs of personality traits.

This says cancers are emotionally intelligent. I would say that. I'm an empath. I pick up on energy very strongly to the point where, like, I can go in a room, and if the energy is bad or off, I'll leave the room. Some people call that a trauma response. So deeply. It says we're nurturing, caring, and resilient.

I would say those are true. Negative attributes, this says, that were clingy, moody, irritable, and hyper-sensitive. I am, I can be sensitive, yes. Hyper-sensitive? Hyper-sensitive? I don't think so. But sensitive I can be, but I'm not like a, I'm not like, you have to handle me with kid gloves type of sensitive. Irritable?

Irritable, I'm not. Irritable bowels? That, yes. Sensitive bowels? Klingy, I don't know. I can definitely get needy, but I'm not like a clingy person. I'm good at reading the room. If someone does not want to hang or want to be my friend or be, I'm just like, all right, peace out.

Yeah. I would say, for the most part, I am pretty dead on cancer. It's so funny that you're like, our animal is a crab. Like, humans are so embarrassing that we're like, my animal is a crab. and mine's a bowl and mine's around like little teams so what's your next i'll go okay so i think about torus as like well because i was really premature i was supposed to be a gemini and i i have some gemini in my chart but i feel like i'm um stubborn sensitive loyal uh well am i loyal i can be when i once when i'm in i'm in it is not a good sign

You're not convinced me about loyalty. I am a very loyal friend and like, and when I fall, I fall hard. I'm romantic. But I like my home and to like, yeah, what's it? It sounds like you're a crab now. I'm sounding very crab-like, but what? Yeah, but you're definitely not a cancer. So I wonder what sets you apart.

I got really into Mayan astrology for a while. And I would love to. Yeah, see, that's where we differ. Of course she did. This witchy stuff. Yeah. That's not me. That's not a cancer.

Okay. You're like, what's the word? Not like fanciful, you know? Is that a tourist thing or a May thing? Oh, like whimsical. Whimsical? That's the word. Is that tourist?

Yeah, maybe. It says that the tourist star sign is ruled by the persistent and determined bull. And when it comes to your energy, the typical tourist has two speeds. They're either relaxed and contented or hyped up. and ready to charge. Okay. Would you agree with any of that? Yeah, I think so.

That checks out. That tourist people will patiently assess whether something is worth the investment of time and resources. Then if the green light flashes, it's all system go. Until then, slow and steady wins the tourist race.

Yeah, I think I, I'm trying to find this fucking... This thing says what they hate being rushed. Oh, yeah, I hate being rushed. Wasting money? And you waste plenty of money. Oh, my God. Yeah, synthesizers in the mountains.

Well, I like the, I'm a, I do like things and objects in my space, you know. Oh, it's just, you all have deep and soulful eyes, long and elegant and elegant necks and a delicate drone line. What? I'm reading this thing. It says I have a long and elegant neck. Just all tourists, apparently. Wow. It says that you don't like dirty things, hotels, and mornings.

How do you feel of it? I hate mornings. Okay. So we've got some things here. It's favorite things, photography, you're into that. Hey. The mountains, you're into that. Hey, what?

Great music. What? Taurus is like great music. Everyone else hates music. Satin sheets. Satin sheets? No way. Well, I'm into linen now, but I, for you.

Yours was Jersey cotton all the way. But, wow, but a lot of that does check out, yeah. This is so oddly specific. Yeah. Yeah, what am I? I'm Aries. And I'll tell you one thing I know about myself, because Stephanie always makes fun of me about this.

She calls it, quote, unquote, yeah, this can wait. Which means that my personality, when I get an idea, I move forward. Like we'll casually talk about something where I'm like, oh yeah, I'm thinking about you know, doing this documentary about Andrea Gibson and then at the end of the day when she comes home, I'm like, oh, by the way, I reached out to investors

and I, and she'll go, yeah, this can wait. And so it's kind of her sarcastic, like, which we read somewhere about Aries is that they move. They move quickly. Right. Yeah. Yeah.

You're like action. All the error signs are like forward moving. Here's what it says that the thing Thomas said. You're brave, willful, productive, enterprising, humanitarian, and assertive.

Yeah. That's pretty spot on, right? That checks out. Yeah. Negative attributes. No, moody. Impulsive. Yeah.

Patient, rude. Okay, let me go through those. One by one, what was the first one? Moody. Moody. Yeah, I'm not, I am not a moody person, unless I'm completely in denial. I don't feel, like, I'm not somebody that, where I'm like, don't talk to me until I've had my coffee. Or I'm, I just feel like I'm pretty, pretty much like this, you know.

And then what's the next one? Impulsive? Are you? just in like trying to get things done yeah yeah it would be impulsive to someone who hasn't been in your head and you've gone through the whole thinking process so you're like okay I'm doing this now but to someone else they might be like what where'd that come from yeah I think I could have seen myself as more impulsive as a kid but I feel like that's also maybe a trait of a kid but yeah I think things through I feel like I'm kind of measured in in ways so I don't I guess

I don't fully connect with that. Sabrina Jolice is an Aries, friend of the pod, and she's very sort of, yeah, especially with her family. It's like, this is my family, and we're making decisions, and we're going to build this life and very, like, and makes things happen and, like, pulls the trigger on decisions like that. And what is my next one? Impatient or rude?

I don't think I'm impatient. I certainly get challenged in moments. I don't know. I'm very curious. I think because I've known Thomas so long, would you say I seem impatient, Thomas? And I have no hard feelings if, yes. Safe space, Thomas.

Impation's not that negative, though. No, but either way, I just don't see myself as impatient, but if so, I'm just curious to hear. When I'm driving on the highway, you do tell me to drive faster sometimes. Oh, okay. Speed demon.

Okay. But like, overall, I'd say you're not. someone who's so eager to like you know move on to the next thing or rush through things so I don't know yeah it's interesting and then rude um I don't think I'm rude I know that I have um a certain delivery that people sometimes don't get a dryness and a yeah a dryness where people are like god I can't believe she said that to that person and it's like oh I was kidding but if it didn't land, then it's not funny. But, yeah, and I think at times, you know, like anybody who is in the public eye,

like say you're sitting and having dinner with your family or something, and somebody's like coming up and talking to you when you're with your family or sometimes I'm a little like, uh, not right now, you know. I would say it's not even, it's not, it's more like you don't have the, people pleasing quality like you're not gonna sort of fill every silence and like like i you're like yeah you like right now yeah but i think also when i'm with my family i don't like my kids seeing me in a particular light of um like a fame or yeah yeah like i just i don't i don't like for them to see any of that.

Of course, they see elements of that, but I just, it's not my favorite. So I try and kind of quickly get out of that so that we can just kind of just do our family thing. Can I really quickly look up your astrologic, your Mayan astrological, because each one comes with a poem. You get your little sign and then you get a little poem.

Yeah, look it up. It also says you're open and honest. I would agree with that. I'd agree with that, yeah. So what's the day, month, and year of your birthday? TIG? March 24th, 1971. So TIG's a fire sign.

I'm a water sign and what's Taurus? Earth sign. Wow. I would say those are all pretty accurate. Does it say, though, Fortune, what bedsheets I like or anything like that? Oh, let me see. That's a good question. Oh, my.

Wait. Teg, this is really good. Oh. You are a white spectral dog. What? Yes. And you're in the earth family of polar. And this is your poem.

Okay. So you're a white spectral dog. It's just be open minded and see if this poem resonates with you. Okay. I dissolve in order to love. Releasing loyalty, I seal the process of heart with the spectral tone of liberation. I'm guided by my own power doubled. I'm also guided by my own power doubled.

Oh, look at that. Yeah. Okay. Two against one. Fortune. What's your birthday again? July 1st, 1980. July is...

While you're looking that up, I'm going to tell TIG what this... The one that said your favorite sheets does not have that on TIGs, but your favorite things, competitive games, new clothes, road trips in vast red cars. Wait a second. Oh, my God. Wait, what is the last thing? Debating, expressing themselves through stunning verbal and physical feats.

What you hate, sharing. their toys, being ignored, cramped spaces, losing, and the word no. Wow. I got to look up, I have to look up mine. Yeah, let's hear about your bed sheets. So you love fast red cars? Oh, you know, I do. I don't even care about cars. You literally never share your G.I. Joe with me. May, did you find that one thing? Oh, yeah. So, okay, Fortune, this is you, okay? Okay. You're a yellow spectral seed. I dissolve in order to target. Releasing awareness, I seal the input of flowering with a spectral tone of liberation. I'm guided by my own power doubled. So you're yellow spectral seed. What's that mean? Well, we don't know. This is great. It's a poem. You're not supposed to really

understand. You're just supposed to go, oh, okay. I'll send it to you and then you mull it over, see if it speaks to you. I'm a red magnetic moon and I really liked that. and so I basically latched onto it. I can't believe how much I related to what was said about me until the specifics came up of like race cars and this is this one site that thinks may love satin sheets. But I sort of get the energy of satin sheets, you know. I'm trying to look at cancer.

I want to know the specifics. Yeah, we want to know what bedsheets you like. Why is it not? Oh, here it is. You like 10 count, right? Yes. It says my favorite things are gourmet meals that do love that. Intramural sports.

Do love that. Hosting parties. I'd rather go to someone else's party. Working with kids. I like kids, but it's not like that's my thing. Yeah. Museums in our calories. I like them, again, not like the thing I'm looking for.

What they hate, tacky clothes. I could care less about that. Frozen dinners. Public speaking, obviously that's not true. Being rushed and paying full price. What? You did bring a gift card to a restaurant, didn't you? I did, but I spend money all the time.

Yeah, this is not resonating. No, this is not. Yeah, public speaking. Where you'll find them shopping for antiques and rare finds. Oh, fortune's probably running late From the antique shop We'll have to postpone handsome But so when

Like through your life Are you someone who like read the horoscope in the newspaper And like, you know, ascribe meaning to it? Like it will take clearly not But Yeah, sometimes every now and again, I'll make That's a sign. Yeah

Well, when I was little, I always would read the the cartoons, the funnies in the newspaper, and I would also read my horoscope, but just kind of out of curiosity, but I didn't, I wasn't like, oh my gosh, unbelievable news this morning. My moon is rising or whatever. It just seems like online all the astrology accounts I follow, of which there are many, it seems like there's always something massive happening astrologically. Like every day, it's like, guys, today is it portal day? Because it's, we are never going to have this blood, this blood moon again.

And it's like, it's always something. And you can't always. And I feel like Mercury is constantly in retrograde. Oh, constantly. Whatever that means. I hear you, girl. Oh, my God. It's in retrograde again?

Wasn't it just? Exactly. I do, I do feel, as much as I don't necessarily connect to all that, I do feel curious and I love hearing about it. And when people are really knowledgeable, I love hearing what they have to say. People like hearing about themselves too, right? Like people are like, oh, you're like this. You're like, yeah, am I?

But it's also, it's fun to hear about you and fortune. Like, all of it is so fun to kind of laugh and talk about. It's just connecting. I have noticed that like most of the people I've been in love with in my life have been born between like mid-August and, the end of November. That's like the window. Hmm. Yeah. I do, I do like in my dating days would always look up whoever it was I was going out

with or like what their sign was. I was always, and I would look up compatibility and stuff like that. I do find that stuff very interesting. Yeah, it is. It's fun. There's an app called CoStar that I'll add you guys on. It gives you a daily update on your friendship with that person. Like today you and Tigger struggling with communication but you know hang in there and it's usually very accurate really yeah i've probably mentioned this already but when stephanie and i she's very into that and um when we first got together she brought over a book that tells you i guess yes yeah like the birthday book or something it tells you all your compatibility and yeah yeah and so she was reading that to me and and when she finished

reading it i was asleep no way are you serious yeah And she was like, and the person does this and that and blah, blah, blah. And then she looks over and she's like, oh, my God. And you were like, honk shoe, honk shoe, honk shoe. So, but I think it's fun. Like when we had this question from Martha, it was like, let's do that. That sounds really interesting and fun. So should we hear Martha's answer?

Oh, yes, yes indeed. Wait, can I, I don't know Martha's birthday or anything. And can I, should we guess her sign? Okay, I'm going to guess that Martha is a Capricorn. Martha seems like a fire sign to me. Okay, is that like Capricorn, you think? I have no idea. Scorpio, maybe.

Oh, she could be a Scorpio. Let's go Scorpio. I just thought of a sign that I've heard of. Yeah. The first that came to my mind, not what I've heard of. Or a Leo. Nah, she's a Pisces. We've said most of the signs.

Leo, I'm going to say Leo or Scorpio. It's a Pisces. I'm going to go Capricorn just to be different. Okay. Let's hear it. No, she's not a Capricorn. No, come on.

Because she's a Pisces. She's a Virgo. She's a Virgo. Take Sam Pisces. I'm giving myself two options. I'm going Libra. Okay. Oh, yeah, that's a good guess.

No, it's not because she's a Pisces. What is it, Thomas? I'll play the clip. I think for me, I'm a Scorpio. Oh. And she's lying. You know, this means I automatically

have a reputation among people for being aggressive and like crazy, maybe a little bit demonic, maybe a little bit toxic and also sexually voracious. Yeah. That does. You know, like I will rip a man's head off after I have sex with him or

something like that. Wow. So we can I will say that I am least like the perception of my astrological sign in that I will not rip a man's head off after having sex with him. I will likely just express a level of boredom. Oh, okay. At least that's been my experience. And just, you know, say, you know what, let's not. Let's just not.

How about that? Let's just not. That's pretty Scorpio. And then how I'm most like my astrological sign is that I am extremely, I'm extremely, um, loyalty means a lot to me. Um, uh, and, um, dishonesty or disloyalty is really, I don't like it at all. And I will stick with a thing. I will, you know,

a thing or a person or I will stick with it and, you know, no matter how rough or tough it gets, but then like once I've learned my lesson, then forget it. It's decisions made. It's over. They're out of my life. I have no desire or need to ever speak with them again. It doesn't matter how close we were. It doesn't matter.

Nothing matters. If they have in any way betrayed me, they're out. So I don't know how funny or amusing this is. I may have just revealed way more about myself than I've ever intended to with this question. But yeah, anyway, I'm hoping you guys can lighten this subject up a little bit because I'm feeling like I really brought it down. I thought it was interesting. I'm obsessed with. Imagine sleeping someone in afterwards. They go, can we not?

Can we just not? That's funny Yeah that was one of the most thorough responses Not just on this podcast But I think ever that anyone has ever given Scorpios are famously known For being a voracious in the bedroom Yeah

How do you know this? I've looked at people's astrology over the years Okay And they are famously And that's what you are looking for? No, I'm not looking for anything from any sign. I just see different traits of different signs, and I do know that's one of their traits. No, you're looking for a sign.

I dated somebody that blamed everything on me being an Aries. Oh, my God, that would drive me insane. And it was such an unfair argument. And I used to say, so you're saying that if I was just born one day sooner, it all would be your fault. well this was really fun this is truly fun because at first i was like huh talk about our signs i don't know much about so it was nice to read through and learn more about you both and also be like that's not you yeah learn about your love of fast red cars i'm ordering satin sheets although it isn't true about me thomas did say that i'm like hey thomas can you go a little

faster. But to be fair, you are a slow driver, Thomas. Wait till we all get inside his head and we're controlling his body and then we're going to drive as fast as we want. And I've spent many hours in a car with Thomas and he's a great person to be on a road trip with. I do love a road trip. Yeah, me too. Yeah. Well, always a pleasure. What do you guys have coming up?
