Oh, my God. I go there at least once a year, actually. Because I tour in December, which, by the way, nobody does Christmas like Chicago. And I'm sorry, New York. Yep. But there's like a corporate feel in the way that New York does Christmas. All buildings, yeah. I say this as the expert.

And then you go to Chicago, and it's just much more lived in. It's much more like real Christmas. You can tell all the lights are kind of thrown up there. We're going to the Wiener Circle. And there's a little too much of them. You know what I mean? Right. There was no corporate voice to rein it in.

That is so crazy to hear those words. Well, this feels, this feels very real. Yeah, my own name coming out of your mouth. Andy Cohen's about to blurt your name out. I will be sick when that happens, yeah. So you're going behind the bar. So is this happening Wednesday night? Yeah, but it will.

Tonight, when this comes out. When this comes out. Or will it come out later? It'll come out Sunday. Sorry. No problem. So sorry everyone. It's not live anymore.

Watch what happens. Pre-taped shatter. He's got me tired. You know, he's not. He's got kids. Yeah, I don't know about that. You can ask him. What's about the kids thing?

So is that real or? It's shy. Thank you. Shytown. Shai Khan. They say Shireish, which my dad really doesn't like. But the shy. My brother was a set deck on the shy.

Oh my God. It's called the shy, not the shy. Not the shy. So do people ever call it the Shire? Y'all are Lord of the Rings. That is, we should start saying that. You should start saying that. Well, then, of course, there was the bad thing people would say,

Shirek when, because they were, you know. Of course. Of course. Well, people have to make everything bad a little bit. Of course. It's actually local culture number nine. People have to make everything bad a little bit. But not in Chicago.

Including the person that told me to get a new hairstyle today. But let's talk about this. I don't, I just, this is my hair. It's thin. What do you want for me? Well, first of all. I just, I just take issue with you need. Okay, so I brought up Maggie's amazing.

I just want to really shine a line on this because it really kind of helped shift to the paradigm a little bit for me. It was you and John early were talking about bean soup theory, right? So do you want to explain what bean soup theory is? Yes. So now I understand that it's an actual video girl posted on TikTok for a recipe for bean soup. Of course. Okay.

We all love, no, I'm not a bean girl. Do you guys like beans? I love any soup. My dad is like, oh, really? You need to hang out my dad. You're anti-bean? No, and it's the battle between me and my dad every day. I see the battle.

What's, he says you need to be eating beans. Have you ever had a white bean lentil? No. You can't talk about this. You can't talk about this. I can't talk about beans. No. Well, can't talk about the bean soup theory.

Yes, talk about the bean soup theory. Well, so a woman was like, here's my recipe for bean soup. First comment. I don't like beans. It was me. You need a new hairstyle. Yeah. And so, but the good thing I will say is I was talking about the bean soup theory in this video and someone commented, you need a new hairstyle.

And then people right away were like, this is what she's talking about. Exactly. And I said, thank you. Which is the thing of like, so then this isn't for you. It's not for you. There's the entirety of human thought out there on the internet. You can just keep swiping. Or you send it to the group chat.

Right. So this, I hate beans. And then they're probably going to ignore it anyway because it's so stupid. Well, you send it to the group chat so they can tell you what to think. Yeah. You know what I mean? It's like, hey, I wasn't sure of an opinion. What do you guys think?

And then the group chat will always have a strong opinion. That's real goal to number 10. Yes. The group chat will always have a strong opinion. I'm already loving that we have so many rules of culture. So many, eight, nine, and ten. I'm gonna, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I listen to this. This means a lot to me because I listen to at my desk, at my job, in Chicago.

In Chicago? In Chicago. In Chicago. In Chicago. I'm sorry, I'm Chicago. The shy. Did you have to eliminate an accent? Did I have to?

Yeah. It comes out sometimes. Yeah, but the south side. I guess, okay, I shouldn't say, did you have to eliminate an accent? because I don't hear it all like when you speak. No, I don't have a strong one, but it depends on like if I'm with my family a lot. My mom is like, we're going to the jewels. It's huge.

I'm like, what? Uh-huh. Yeah. Can I even point out, and I'm sorry, I don't, I don't mean to make you self-conscious. Even my mom? My mom, yeah. My mom. No, can I say, I love Midwestern.

Yeah. I love it. I almost picked it from my culture, but then I freaked out. Why? Just the culture of the Midwest? Yeah. Oh, no, we got to talk about cheese balls or whatever. Cheese curts?

Or cheese balls. No, cheese balls. The big thing of cheese balls? Oh my God, so good. I'm reducing, I'm bastardizing Midwest cultures. No, but they would love the thing. We're so sweet. We'd love it.

First of all, I went to, I now occasionally will go to Grand Rapids, Michigan. Love? Because that's where Henry and Ethan live. Remember Henry and Ethan? Of course. Harry Kapinski. Kapirski. Oh, bye.

No, no. Kapinski. I can see you guys. It's all coming out. It's all coming out. But they live out there now, and they have the most lovely little life in Grand Rapids. Michigan, and I, and everyone is, it's true what they say. Kindness reigns.

Of course. My mind was like, I think I like this little life. Remember that? What's that? Yeah. I'm from TikTok. I think I can't restart it, but for so long it was a trend. I think, people would just show like that meeting dinner.

See? And it was a Midwest thing, Midwest best. No, it was all over TikTok. Where were you? Oh, I don't really do TikTok. No, I no longer have one. Because they'll tell you to change your hair. Because they'll tell you to change your hair.

I think, I feel like you have a, you have a claim and like a, a, a dominance over it. Yeah, because at some point it's just like, I'm older. I'm, we're all the same age, I think. Right. Yeah. We're all metal horses. We're all 22.

We're all 22 years old. And I'm just like, it's, I'm, people are like, you're so millennial about it. It's like, yeah, I am a millennial. Right. So I'm going to be millennial. The use of millennial as like a bad word. I know. I don't care.

I don't care. Because it really happened like that. Yeah. Sure. Like, it's now, I'm hoping now it's at the stage where it's like people are kind of tired of it. Right. Well, I can't wait. No, it's, it happens like that because as soon as you could put the word elder in front of it,

then it had a stink on it, right? Elder millennial. So, like, eventually you'll say like Elder Z or Elder Gen Z or some such, you know what I mean? Although, you didn't have Elder Gen X. No, you didn't. Can I say this is Eliza Schlesinger's fault? What do you mean? Her special is called Elder Millennial.

It is, yeah. It's Eliza's fault. One of her many specials is called that, and I had never heard that before, and I was like, elder millennial. I opened for her once. I'll give her a call. Yeah, give her a call. Marguerite is the title of your special.

Yes. Full name? That's my full name. Beautiful. It's my grandma's name. French? Irish. We're Irish, yeah, but it's definitely a French name.

Although... What's the story there? That's a... What did my grandma? What was she up to? What was she up to? What was she up to? What were her parents up to?

Of course. We have one of those little things in my house that like says me and my two brothers names and then like where it's from and the flower associated and like what it means but mine says Spanish it says a margarity to Spanish okay oh interesting it means royal and pearl and pearl and in French it means Daisy in French it means Royal Daisy Royal Pearl in French no it just me just it just means Daisy just means Daisy just means Daisy yeah that it describes and then it's like my brother Bart my brother Liam me talk about the brothers because they co-directed they co-directed my special because I was really like

I want someone, because it's just about me so I was like I want someone who knows me and someone who's not afraid to be real with me and they're not at all, but they should be a little bit more. I do have to say this about my brother Liam is that he's the middle one, the taller one. Six seven.

Six seven. You know, sorry. Of course. He, when you first got us in L, Boen Yang, he said, he was telling everyone in town, you're from Aurora, Colorado. My brother, we have Aurora, Illinois, which is a suburb of Chicago.

That's right. He's going to everyone. He's going, the new Estenal guy from Chicago. He's telling everyone he meets. Another Chicago comedian, we're so proud.

Someday someone goes, he's from Colorado. My brother goes, what? I've been telling everyone for years that Bon Yang was a Chicago guy. I was accepting it

because I was like, it's weird you never did Chicago comedy, but maybe he just went right to him. Sure, sure, sure. He is kind of a shycon. You are a shycon. I never have heard that,

but I really liked that. I made it up today on the way over here because I was thinking, Wow, she's a Chicago icon. Sheikon. Someone called me a Chicago fried comedian once and I ran with that. Chicago Fried. Fried comedian?

Yes. What does it mean? We don't know. We don't know. Totally. Chicago fried comedian. You're a New York fan. I think we're New York Fried.

Oh, interesting. New York Grilled. You are New York grilled. I'm poached. I'm bland as far. Oh, stop. That's not true. It's, it's, people love poached.

People, poached. I don't get it. Poached is cute sometimes. I never get it. You hate it. You're trying to stick up for it. Poached is good when you're like making soup. Oh, a poached?

You're kind of poaching. Well, just like a poached breast, a chicken moment. And what's the difference between that in basting? Basting is like you're taking the juices and just like re sort of applying it to the protein or the roast. Kristen Kish over here. No, no, no. Oh, my God. Interesting.

Oh. Interesting. I would. I love. I love Top Chef so much, and I love watching these people, and I'm just like, I could never do anything they're doing. And I'm going, that's disgusting. You're disgusting. Can I ask you a question?

Please. Everyone becomes an expert. Do, and with that in mind, do you miss Padma? Yes. And what do you think about the Culinary Cup? Wait, what's the Culinary Cup? Turn your show. It's essentially her new show, which is Top Chef, but not.

I didn't know what this. And I was watching it, and the trailer for it, and I was like, I mean, of course I'm, like, all in because it's Padma and it's this. And I also made. Padma and Top Chef, all love in respect to Kristen Kish, who was amazing. It's just like... Padma is top chef. Yeah, of course you can. She definitely was like, what are you doing?

Right. Her delivery style was like, did you always fuck up this way? Is this how you cook at Pochste? Is this a different culture thing? Right, right, right. But what do you think of this? Like there's a new top chef that is top chef, but it's not top chef? So then was there drama?

Does she want to come back? And they were like, oh, honey, I don't think so. You know. All right. I don't think so. Yoda coded. Yoda coded. Oh, honey, I don't think.

I think so I don't. I feel like you never know. Maybe she just like saw an offer and was like, sure. Maybe she's making more money because it's like her show. Probably. And at the end of the day. At the end of the day. At the end of the day.

At the end of the day. She came on this podcast a few years ago and we found out that she is, you know she wrote a glossary of spices. Hello? What did you say? She brought an encyclopedia of spices because she has like, one of the most developed palettes in the world. Yeah. Which, this we knew.

So what does that mean? Like, you open a book and... Oh, yeah. And keep going. What happens? You open a book and there's, you know, there's a whole page that's like paprika. And what it is? And like, what should go on?

Yes. I actually need that, I think. I think everyone needs it. But actually, this is... No, this is... I'm going to say this for I don't think so honey. Okay. Save it.

Or we can start now. Spices take... Like, the footprint of spices in the home. is too big. Like, now I got to buy a fucking book. Sorry, Padma, but it's like, the rack itself is taking up a whole ass counter. But at that point, it's kind of like when it rains it pours, right? It's like, okay, so you have all the spice rack, you might as well have a spice glossary, a spice encyclopedia written by Podma.

So they go together. Grease. How often are you touching Klove? How often are you touching? One time a year? Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving. Well, also all throughout the holiday season, if you make a, say it with me, hot toddy.

Oh my God. Clothes are a huge part of hot toddy. It's actually real culture number 11. Clothes are a huge part of hot toddy. It's technically not even a hot toddy if you don't have them. Do you like when the guest goes in with the roll? Yes. Because sometimes I'm like, I don't want to step on anyone's toes.

No, no, no. I'm saying it at home. I'm listening. I'm saying it with you guys. Our toes are flat. Let me step on them. These things have been flattened, so. Oh, my God.

I've got the biggest feet in America. Honey? Let me see. For a girl. I'm not seeing it. Shout out to Paris Hilton. She's the only real one who started a footline. Footline.

Footline. Does she have large feet? Size 11 feet. Paris Hilton does. Maybe she got him shrunk. I don't know. But yeah, at a time, she was like, I'm starting shoes for the girls. That's...

Even though the stars... Okay. Even though the stars are crazy. Wait, no, even though the guys are crazy? Even though the guys are crazy. Even though the stars... It really is a bop. And unfortunately, you can't hear it without going like this.

Yeah. I don't understand. Are the stars blind, in fact? You know, it doesn't matter. We got to think about that one. We got to think about it. You got to get a little high and you got to eat the popcorn. You don't even think about that.

Of course. I have a question for you guys. Do you think that the culture of taking out the spices from their original thing, putting it in a jar and labeling it and then putting it is good or bad? That is, that's giving like the internet that I'm not on. Yeah. I shudder at when I see it, which is like organization, like closet organization culture. Yes.

Which scares me a little bit. It's not realistic. This is just my thing with spices and spice racks. If we, if our life were the Sims, it would take up an entire tile in our home. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like it takes up an entire Sim Square. Sim Square.

And that's what I am like, but I'm not using this. Yeah. No. You know what I mean? What do you think is hard left? Is the Midwest culture? What do you think is the Midwest culture

that people don't talk about enough? Oh my God. Because they talk about like food. They talk about, they're always like, you guys eat disgusting casserole food. It's like it's good. It's relaxed.

Pistachio salad, if you had that. No. It is kind of messed up. There's a couple of names for an ambrosia salad. That's cute. That's very like celestial heaven. Well, wait until you hear, it's like marshmallows, pistachio.

It's like you can get it at the grocery store. It's gooped up. It has apples in it. It's so good. There's also a version that has Snickers in it. Stop it. I'm dead. And if they call it a salad?

Yes. Embroja. But salad is so much of bigger an umbrella term. Yeah. I think anyone realizes. What defines a salad? A collo. Is there fruit or vegetable in it?

Is that what it is? Because I was like fruit salad, obviously, because I was like, is it just vegetable, but there's also fruit. Right. Yeah. Let us know what you guys think of salad is. I would love to know. I don't know about that kind of stuff. No, but I think there's like different versions, but you can get at the grocery store and it's just like a sweet.

Pineapples and it, I think. Okay, so far we have. So maybe you don't know about this. That's a good one. Yeah. This is really good. No, this is huge. So so far we have marshmallows, apples, pineapples.

I haven't really heard pistachios. There is pistachios. Sometimes snickers is salad. is a separate one. There's definitely one that's like, yeah, but I think the marshmallows maybe melted a little bit. I never made it, but I do, I'll get it at the grocery store. I don't, I'm not scared to get any of the grocery store.

No, no, no, no. Yeah, I want you guys to try it when you go. I want to. Well, what aisle in the grocery store would it even eat? Mm. You go to the deli and say, that's, that green thing, put it in a little pound thing or whatever. Of course.

Chicken salad? Oh, big time. Well, yeah, of course. You know I had tuna today. Oh, I did see that. I greeted you with the tuna salad in the air waving. I don't eat tuna. What?

And I know my other thing my dad's like, grow up. Me and my dad are fighting constantly about what I'm eating. And I'm not like a picky, picky eater, just beans and tuna. Beans and tuna. Is it the smell? Yeah. Okay. But I do, I did really get into seafood lush two years ago.

See Midwest people in seafood, you have to hold their hand. Yeah, and my friend from New Jersey helped me. She held my hand. Jack Falker, I'll say her name. She tried to, first of all, I need to call her out because she's like, I'm going to challenge you to say the word Jardinara five times on the podcast today. I was like, I'm not going to do that. Jardinar. Do you know Jardinara?

Okay, this is amazing. Tell us. I almost brought you that too. Jardinara is a Chicago relish almost. Jardinara. You can get it hot or mild. You put it on beefs. You put it on pizza.

Sausage and Jardinara pizza tavern style. When you come, we're going to get that. Okay, yes. And it's good. It's, yeah, Jardinara. And it's like all. and peppers and it's an oil. And this feels like a good thing for the summer.

Yes. Or, you know, yeah. Yes. Well, anytime. I put it on a sub. Oh, yeah. What do you say, Hogi? Like, what's your?

Oh, no, no. Sub. Sub. I couldn't believe Hogi was a thing when I first heard it. I was like, excuse me, what? Where is Hogi? Cut, cut, rewind it back. Hogi.

Hogi is like Philly, Scrapple, Scrapple country. Okay. You know what I mean? Yeah. I felt the way about Hogi the way I felt when I heard about Hasek. What's Hasek? It's another word for an Ottoman, you guys.

I'm pissed, yeah. Like, my friend Emily was like, over there on the Hasek. And I was like, cut, rewind it back. What did you say? I just hit the mic. I didn't know what was going on Hasek. Has someone said, get the Hasek? For hours, I'd be like, um.

Has anyone else heard of this word, Hasek? I don't. Never. No one? Get the Hasek. I don't know. Okay, Nick seen it on Wayfair You've seen it on Wayfair

One of the most Ottoman-centric places You could possibly even think of Yeah, when you saw it Did you know like, oh, I know what that is? Okay. Yeah, right. Ottoman is so much better. I'm having a hoagie on the Hasick.

What ex was that? I don't know. I was on the Hasick. Sorry. That was Aurora, Illinois. Aurora, Illinois. That was a rural Illinois.

Yeah, Jardner, you guys got to have that. So it sounds like a top of nudge. Yes, exactly. Okay. Love. You, yeah. Now, is it back in style to debate Deep Dish versus Other? I don't do it.

I decided one day that, yes. I feel like a long time ago, like what was it, John Stewart, like popped off about it. I don't, the thing is you over there arguing about it, I'm over here eating pizza heaven's time about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. My family eats deep dish pizza for Christmas Eve. And did my coworker call me white trash for that? Of course. And not.

Get these people out of your life. I don't work there anymore. I don't work there. But I remember being like, oh. Did you quit right then and there? I should have. I should have been like, no, I got, of course, let go. Of course I got let go.

But 23 of us dead. It's fine. 23 and me. 22 in you. We have. I, we have, for Christmas Eve, we have pizza and Chinese food. Because then on Christmas Day, we like go cooking crazy. But the day before, we're chilly.

And what do you cook? I usually make the potatoes and the dessert. Okay, okay. And you're hitting up all this. And you're touching two of the spices on the rack. Yeah. At least, at most. Yeah.

When people say you need a lot of spices for mashed potatoes, it's like, get a grip, you know, I don't think. You need some. You need some. And your brother makes the beefs? You knew it, yeah. Well, my one brother's, which. Surprise, surprise. Surprise.

Ah, this is Liam or Bert? Art. That's not the tall one. He's 6'5. Well, he'd be 6'7 if he didn't meet. Oh my God, he's gonna be pissed. Well, I hope everyone's pissed. This is the reason you're a shy con is because I feel like earlier when you said you put it on beefs, when you pluralized beef.

That feels Midwestern. Beefs. Beefs. Mr. Beefs. Oh, Mr. Beefs. Did you guys watch? Of course I'm Survivor. The Squid Game.

I love Survivor. You love Survivor? I got into it. No, but I was thinking of, of course. Mr. Beasts. Why can't I think of the name of the Chicago show about the chef? The bear. The bear.

I've lacked out the name because they won't let me audition, so. They won't let you? The one actor in Chicago, they're going, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Is it a lot of Chicago locals going up for the bear? Yeah, that makes sense. I'm watching, I'm going, everyone I know. I will say I got a lot of text season. Did you watch it?

Luke opens up about success, self-doubt, mental health, and what it really takes to stay true to who you are when your life changes overnight. I hate fame, I hate the word celebrity, I hate those words, that you make me uncomfortable. But I think when you get to a certain

point, the fame or the success or the influence, it just accentuates and exacerbates the inherent person that you are. The guy that says he's always going to be there and that will do anything to be there is the only guy that's not there. I'm in Australia when Bo is born.

Shirecon. Well, the Irish really, you have to say Irish American. Of course. Do you have to? Yeah, they really don't like if you're like I'm Irish, which I understand because there's a lot of us

coming at them. Like, I'm Irish too. But that's nobody's fault. No, and I'm from a place where it's like so many Irish immigrants landed in Beverly where I'm from in Chicago.

And now there's all of us Irish Americans and like, what are we supposed to be doing? Of course. We have a big St. Patrick's Day party our own on the south side. So downtown has one.

I think that's the one that people don't like, the nasty one, people are puking. Sure. But the Beverly one. People are still puking, but it's a little bit more. But it's more,

your dad's there to rub your back. Oh, that's so sweet. My family has, we start with Catholic Mass. In our backyard, which is not big. You guys host Mass? Yes. My uncle's, of course, a priest. Oh, I love that.

Of course. Oh, my, that's beautiful. Talk about the experience. The first time I went and I was in sixth grade, I had a vampire tooth, which is a tooth up here. It's one of the scary. There's one tooth that's a vampire. I know exactly what you're talking about.

It is one. one of the scariest things anyone can go through. If you're going through it, I'm so sorry. It's like your incisor one crazy. Yeah, and so then you have to get like a brace go up there that it pulls it down. So I look busted. No, Maggie. I'm wearing Ireland shirts in Ireland, of course.

I'm wearing shirts that say Irish in Ireland. Oh, yeah. I have curly bangs. Yeah. Is the clothing that says Ireland. Waring a beret in Paris like that is like that. Of course. That's me so young me coated so badly.

And we went to my cousin's wedding and we went. I also went to my family's in Castle Island and Claire Island. Castle Island, they owned a bar. It was the first time I ever had Nutella. Oh. They were like, do you want some of this? I go, what the hell is that? I didn't say hell.

I was young. You may be said heck. The heck is that with my bags with my tooth. There's a photo of it. I'll try to find it. And it was so brutal. Please. Went to your cousin's wedding.

Went to my cousin's wedding. She had baked Alaska at the wedding. That's all I remember when something's on. fire. Right. Then my older brother, Liam, like, had a rum and Coke and I remember I took a sip of it. I go, what is this? But he was like 16s. My parents were like, I ratted him out. I know. You didn't like it a little bit. Rum and Coke. It's the most delicious thing. I know. Two years later, six or no, yeah, I guess when did I start drinking? Are you guys young drinkers? Uh, sure. 14. Yeah, same. Okay, so that's, that's where it comes out. Yeah. That's Long Island. Come on. Long Island. And yeah. What was your first drink? Do you want to know? Yeah, well, I'm scared. It was a tiny little plastic cup of Bacardi Razz. Because we were told that was the good one.

And so we all, and we would also experiment with Haterade. You know, what's Haterade? Gatorade with vodka. Oh, yeah, of course. Just absolutely, what, we would get a flask of Georgie vodka, which is the worst you could ever, ever have. We had Skull. Yes, Skoll is something I hear about a lot. Like that's like the cheap ass

Rubbing alcohol vodka Rubbing alcohol Oh I recently had it Like in it I made a video Where I was like Wait because we would do that

In orange juice Sorry So you would not mix them No Because it's like You would take the shot Do it Take two shots

And I'm like I'm calling everyone I've ever met Like I'm drunk Yeah Yeah Yeah What was yours

Mine was I was 14 You guys were A bit ahead of me I started around 16 That's good The first, my first memory of drinking in a way that was like intentional and like I'm getting drunk was, uh, Mike's heard lemonade to watch the program heroes.

Yep. Oh my God. We're going to drink Mike's Heart and watch Heroes is the most 2006 thing I've ever heard in my life. That's so beautiful. I know. And then, you know, I was finding out who Zachary Quinto was, you know, who's Seiler? Siler. Siler.

Siler. He used famously Siler. In heroes. I never watched Heroes. He killed Kristen Bell on that show. Get him. She was the cheerleader. No, she wasn't.

No, that's Hayden Panetteer. By the way, these are my favorite names. Hayden Panetteer. Hayden Panetteer. When I first saw Serena Carpenter, I said, well, where is Hayden Panetteer? Because they might be the same. Oh, they are. I'm still not convinced.

They are. I never thought about this. Well, apparently, Hayden Panetier, wait, is she, do you just, do you just her? movies? Not really. I don't think she's in the new scream. Apparently the new scream.

Yeah. Oh, okay. She's in the old ones. She's in the old one and then she came back in the last one. She's one of those characters that like dies every time. But that comes back and is like,

hey. That was a rough one guy. Yeah, well, you know, just heed my warnings. And it's like, okay. That is so Marvel too. I can't believe, okay, spoiler alert

for Scream 7. Okay. I can't believe Neff Campbell lives. I mean Because she's lived all along I guess so But it's like you think they would like turn something at the last time

Like just end it and end her Yeah I don't know I was just surprised Then again no I guess I'm not surprised I'm sure it was like in her contract When they asked her back They were like Sydney is to live Yeah

And I will maybe I'm keeping this line open in case I need the cash Which is not to say that that's like the only motivation And there's multiple ghost guys Or what's going on? Now ghost face is ever Everybody. Ghost faces everybody.

Yeah. Yeah. Which was this a guy. One of our friends was a ghost face. Are you serious? Jack Quaid. Oh my God. Was a ghost face?

Spoiler. Oh, sorry. No, no. I don't know. So did they, the ghost faces like get together? I never watched them. I'm sorry. Usually two of them get together.

Okay. And it's a combination you'd never expect. Were they bullied or what? Usually their reasons are a lot crazier than that. I'm like, do the whole seven screams for me. Usually, and yes, I do watch these films. I haven't seen the last couple ones, but usually it's like years ago you were involved tangentially with a murder that had to do with someone I know. So I snapped.

And I'm going to get you. And I got together with this one, reveal. I, and the person takes off their mask and they go, I barely have a reason. I'm just fucking crazy. And no, now it's become like, I want to be you. Oh. It's become, it's,

am I wrong or am I right? Like, people watch the scream films. Whoa. It's not a, it's not a screen. Okay, but barely accurate.

You did see the new one. No, I don't know. So then I can just tell you, usually the reasoning is like, I didn't see the new one either, but I did find out after what happened. But basically,

it's kind of a thing of like, either like I have a convoluted reason. Yeah. Or I have almost no reason, but aren't you gagged? I found out like that more. Yeah. I like that more too.

Just be psycho. Yeah. Just fucking go for it. With your one wild and precious life, be ghost face. It's actually roller culture number 10. No, we just did that. Number 11. With your one and wild and precious life, be ghost face.

But don't actually. Fuck, I tried to do it and I've fucked up. No, no, you're doing it. One wild and precious life, be ghost face. So you've got to think, if there's seven scream films, there's been, what, 14 ghost faces? It's always two? It's pretty much always two.

I never, that's crazy I always thought it was one guy I met too I did watch oh god who's Michael it was always the same H2O

yeah not H2O Halloween he was always the same guy right he was maybe years later I think he was

because he is Michael Myers but then then they tried to pull like oh he's the definition and he's evil incarnate so can't be killed They tried to sort of do like a mystical thing with him

Where they were like They started did a whole like Harry Potter Voldemort Like Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader thing Where it was like one cannot exist on the planet While the other reigns And it was Laurie Strode and Michael Myers And I won't spoil that You have to watch

Kyle Richards lives Oh Do you think there's someone in the world that is That is true for you guys Like if they die you live So they have to be dead currently Oh that's true No eventually it will come to

Oh, eventually. I guess it's like your enemy. Yeah, I don't have an enemy. Yeah, I don't have an enemy. Right now. I don't know. I don't have one. The person that said I need to change my hair,

I'm coming to them. It's each other for us. It's each other. That's who it is. That's how the pot ends. That's how the pot ends. That is a nightmare. Holy shit.

Scary. Do you have one? I don't think so, honey. Sorry. Do you say that every time? You say that I don't think so. Kind of. I mean, sometimes it feels like

like when we're out in casual company and it's like you say, I would never say it, but then like sometimes you say it. You have to. You got to say it. Absolutely. Produce my special.

I love so. Absolutely. You know that on every call, I was like, absolutely, absolutely. And I was like, oh my God, stop. No, no. They don't care, though. They don't care.

They pick the word absolutely. And it's one of the greatest ways to say yes. It's actually real close. number 12. Absolutely. It's one of the greatest ways to say yes. Absolutely. I did it. Okay. I want to talk about this. Before we ask, we haven't asked to do the question we're having such a about it. Oh, God. Yeah, I know. But before we ask, I feel, I feel good. I was like, obviously nervous to do the podcast. Of course. No reason. I texted you in a manic state and then I was like, I have to do this now. No, I loved it. No, I thought it was the best idea ever that you

come. I think I called. I was like, can I be the charity case? And you were like, shut up. Of course. Where the charity case? But do you know who's coming in right after you? Today? Yeah. I'm who. Nicole Kidman. I'm going to follow the ground.

She's going to be in this chair. She's going to be in that chair. I'm going to leave her a note. I'm going to leave her a note. She's Australian? Okay. Yeah. She's Australian?

We'll ask her that. We'll ask her that. So are you Australia? We didn't wonder. We're trying to figure it out. The structure of the show, Marguerite, on March 17th, is live, laugh, love. Yes. Explain this.

So it's in three sections. Basically from my own brain, I was like, I have a section, Live, where I write stand-up or do stories that have to do with my live, basically where I've lived, how I live. Yes. Laugh. Which would easily be like, my comedy, but it was more like, that's more like about my body straight up because you're like, got to laugh. Got to laugh.

My favorite of the three, by the way. Laugh. Yeah. Come on. Come on. And then love is about, yeah, I just like. the love or lack of thereof. I've got to watch to find out.

And I have a video for each one to start that I did with my either my brothers or my friend Parker. You guys know Parker Callahan? The name sounds familiar. He would love his videos. He is one of the funniest gay guy, so it's like maybe he's in a little bit. Jackpot.

But he is, he made like a lot of my videos and he's so good, so funny. And then, yeah, just like stand up and storytelling, I don't know. Perfect. I feel it sucks to like, I want to just be like it's stand-up, but then people are like, what's kind of storytelling?

You're like, just don't tell me what I'm doing. Yeah. A woman or even, like, anyone who's on a straight guy does like stand-up and people like have to be like, it's a little different. Of course. It's this. That is kind of how it gets filed away. It's automatically alt if it's not crowd work or something.

Oh my God. You know what I mean? Are you guys dating? Are you guys dating? I am doing like, I'm trying to do a lot more crowd work on tour. mentor with Connor Wood. Yes. And it's just so, like, and sometimes I just literally will say, I don't care, actually.

It's like what makes it funny, but it's just like, I really, they're like, I go to school, I don't care. But they love that. But they love that. I love that. To be negged. That's good. That's really good.

It's just to be like, question. It doesn't matter. Did you ever do stand up? No. Yes, he did. Okay. Like, barely in the same way where I was like, which is why? Which is like, because I, because I, because you were saying, like, like, this.

that coming in through like sketch and improv, which is similar to us, like, it felt like it was the third thing that, like, felt like stolen valor if you tried it out. Yeah. Come up through, like, the traditional way or something. Like, so I always, I don't know, I still have that thing where I'm like, I can't really, I don't know for whose benefit, but like, I can't really say that I earnestly did it. I tried for like a solid six months. Yeah.

Yeah. Well, then you did a lot more than my, a lot of Uber drivers I've had who told me. Yeah. I'm going to, well, I obviously have stopped saying I'm a. comedian, but like, they pick me up from a place. I'm like, is it a comedy club? I'm thinking about trying it. I wish I could go, you're never going to. Yeah, totally.

They would love that too. Instead, I'm like, give it a try, yes. That's a surefire way to get into it with an Uber driver, which is not a good idea. Right. I'm thinking about trying company, you never will. What? What do you mean? What are you talking about?

I'll do five minutes right now. Oh, God. In Chicago, the Comedy Town. I'm sure like the people there, it's peopled by folks who want to like do it. I just never liked stand up as much as I liked doing other things. Yeah. Like in a world where there's only so much time to do something,

I liked sketch comedy more. I like doing characters more and I like doing the musical comedy more. Yes. So it kind of, it's not this because I obviously have a lot of respect for everyone that does stand up, but it always felt like I wasn't doing enough. Yeah. Right. I had to come to the realization.

and like I can do it in my own way. Truly watching Meg Stalter for the first time, I was like, oh, you can do what you want. Yeah, you can. And I think especially with women, like, we can do girly pop stand-up. Not for everybody, it's not for the boys all the time. But even calling that feels weird,

but it's like I can do my own style and I start bawling my eyes out. Yeah. Like, you can do whatever you want on stage and people can deal with the labels. Of course. Yeah. I mean, if you're enjoying it and people are enjoying it,

If you're laughing, I think we did it. Yeah, pretty much. If you're laughing, I think we did it. That's real culture number 12. If you're laughing, I think we did it. Heart Radio is throwing it back. 20s, the decade. To the days of huge hits and unforgettable items.

It really is. What was the culture, Maggie Winters, that made you say culture is for me. Yeah, I was, you know, this is a big one. And I think everyone thinks about this for years of who listens to this podcast. I was thinking about this. And like I was like Midwest, but I was like, let me go a little bit more. Every Friday night growing up, we did pizza movie night. Yep.

It was all about Barbenheimer in the summer of 2023. I didn't do the Barbenheimer, but I did watch them both. That's different times. That's good. Okay, so eating and being entertained. Friday nights, we'd get a pizza from either this place, Milano's or Rosangelo's. Tavern style, which was the squares. Yes.

We'd go to Village Video. Village. Rest in peace. Rest in peace. And I'd get a movie, and it's usually, Like, let's, you know, Harriet the Spy. Love Harriet the Spy. Rest in peace.

Rest in peace. I was definitely, yeah. I used to, like, put a magnifying glass under my bag because I was like, I'm going to when I'm like modern day. Modern day. Um, what the hell? Or go and like, just to be like her. Like she was so cool.

Or, um, little princess, Mary King Ashley. And then my older brothers would get a lot of like Chris Farley, Adam Sandler, S&L style movies. And I would try to watch them with them. And that's when I was like, oh, I love comedy. I was like, but I don't know if girl can do it. And then one day I was like, well, girl can do it. Girl can do it.

And just watching Friday nights eating pizza and just like sitting in my house and just like being home. And then now today, like the thought of going home, having a food you want and watching a show like queued up, there's nothing better. Nothing. I can't watch a show without eating. I know. And it is a little weird now.

I'm like, well, I can't. I actually can't press play on this until I know my food is at least. coming. Yes. Or you even flip the order where I'm like, I love alone. And let's say foods, foods here or my meal is ready. Well, I got to put a fucking YouTube video on. You know what I mean?

Always. Got to do both. Got to do both. Got to watch and eat. Even though like so many whatever like articles are like, you should be eating like just you and your food. And look at this fucking. Concentrate of the food.

I'm like, that's disgusting. No. What's for? Who wrote that? I don't know. I don't know. Who wrote that? We forgot about them.

We forgot about that. What have you been binging or watching and eating like all these things at the set? Because I want to ask you both if you've watched the JFK show. No, but that's on my list. It should be on your list. Just for her hair alone. Okay. Like Sarah Pidge.

People are laughing. You've seen it. Sarah Pigeon is playing Carolyn Bissette. Yeah. But really, it's a so much. much about the hair. Like, there are scenes where it's, it's so, like, a character I would have done in my 20s coded.

Oh. Like, just the longest, most luxurious blonde head of hair, which I don't think is a wig. I don't think it's a wig. Anna is shaking her head. No, she doesn't think it's a wig either. There'll be moments where she just take, you know, that cool girl thing of, like, you just take your one whole thing of hair and you just go to, let me just put it all into one side.

And the movement of the hair And the way it lands Gotta be thick. It's like, it's just crazy. And I'm just like they really And she's an incredible actor But you have to imagine she walked in And they were like, well, with that hair

You're it, yeah. You gotta be in. Totally. Don't say nothing of him Who handsome guy. And get this. Fraser was his modeling agent in London.

This actor? Yes. Fraser was a modeling agent? Fraser was a modeling agent in London in his 20s. And one of his clients was Paul Anthony Kelly. Paul Anthony Kelly, that's his name. I'm looking at everyone in this room like they know and they don't. So that's his name.

Fraser was his modeling agent back in the day. That is so random. Isn't it the most random sauce? That is, that just tells you how small the world is really. Truly. I was hoping that you guys had watched it, but you haven't watched it. What have you been? Obviously, a lot of.

a Bravo all the time. I just finished industry. Okay. I knew you'd say this. You knew. You knew. Because she's so smart. I don't know. Sometimes in that show, I do have to read the recaps because I'm like, what is happening? Having trouble following. Yeah. I'm not.

But I do like to watch it because it makes me feel smarter. I'm like, right, right, right, right. But then like I go on Instagram and it's like the show of the moment and some people are posting it and I'm like, this dummy. Oh. I can get into it of this dummy. Yes, you do. If this dummy's gagging, I can watch industry.

It's actually real close to number 14. If this dummy's gagging, I can watch industry. Maggie, it's fine. I just said if this gaggy's dummy. If this gaggy's dumbing. Gabby Wendy invoked. Gabby Wendy invoked. Because when you were watching Succession,

there was a curve there where you were like, well, now I, everyone's saying the word bear hug. Yeah. And I have to find out. I have to Google what that is. Yeah. But industry, it's coming at you, like, gaddling gun. Like, bra, bra, bra, bra, bra.

They're not always in the phone. Like, we're going to show a hand of a, what? Right. It's like Graze Anatomy. Oh. But you, but like with medical terminology, but the whole show. I never watched Grace, but I do, I am watching the pit. Of course.

Okay. Because I watched Nurse Jackie and I loved it and I just like, I need more medical. I did the pit. You weren't a Chicago med person. Oh, shoot. No, that's okay. Audition. Why, did you watch Chicago Mad?

No. I don't know why I brought. But if I was like, yes, I'm a huge Chicago Met Girl, yes. I love it. Oh, my God. Did you watch, like growing up, did you watch Boy Me's World and all that? Yes. Sabrina. Did you watch one Saturday morning?

Yeah, one Saturday morning. Pepper and pepper. Pepper and pepper. Recess. Recess. Recess. I almost was going to be. say my culture is the Ashley's,

but I was like... The Ashley's. They were all named Ashley. That show got something right when it talked about six, or multiple girls having the same name. Four girls named, four. But then Spinelli was a secret Ashley.

And remember one day they were like, you have to join the Ashle's. And she was like, no. Yeah, I don't want that. I don't want to conform. But they were very diverse. Like, they were those girls. They were.

Spinelli was Beanie PigTales. Yes. She, queer. of feeling. Of course, yeah. Her and the big guy. Her and the big guy. Don't you think? Recess, a show with a theme song

that has no words. Can you sing it? That is cute. That is cunti B'emba. Oh yeah. It's, I mean, that is, that is

cunty as fuck. kids show and the theme song just score. And you're going to remember every note. It's going to imprint. Oh, God. Like, come on, recess. My dad would make pancakes. He loves making pancakes to this day.

He had a minute where he was burning them for like two months straight and we had to be like, you gotta stop. Why was he burning them? Because his thing was too hot and his grill was too hot. Too hot to handle. Too hot to handle. And then he got a better grill. Yeah, yeah. I'm marinating on this thing of the theme song. Do you consider Doug?

to have words if it was do do do do do I guess it just really depends on if you consider do a word or Which it is. It absolutely is. Was the sister? Judy.

Judy was the sister? No, I think her sister was Patty mayonnaise. That was his love interest. Oh, right. What are you doing over here? You know what I'm doing is I'm realizing how far away from my childhood I am. I know.

No, I know. That's why I was, I was thinking about that so I was like, oh my God. It's a tough one. I don't remember a lot of it. And I'm wondering now if it's time to sort of go back and just

revisit. I don't know, but what did even, like, give you what it gave before? I think it might. I mean, like, nostalgia does rock. What it does, you know what's good for that, though?

Is, um, Simpsons. Simpsons is like, and apparently recent seasons, it's like, but they're, you know what they're coming up? You know my family Simpsons. Oh my God. You're Maggie.

And Bart. Leo. Bart was born before the Simpsons started. Those are, these are family names. Whoa. So were they like, I can't believe our kids are named Bart and Maggie? No, they don't even talk about it. They don't care.

They don't care. That's so cool. Bartholomeo. That's Catholic shame. Yeah. That's, oh my God. We're Bartholomew, William, William, William, William, William, William, and Liam is the male version of Lisa, basically.

And he went to the, um, and I can't get gifted school. Did he actually? Yes. And did I get it in? Of course. And did I get in? No. Look where you are.

Thank you. You know, Lisa Simpson, I don't want to say she's a red flag. Hands up. But there's a lot of gay guys that like sort of like are like Lisa Simpson. And I'm like. Like they think they're Lisa Simpson. Yeah, and that's a red flag. And it's like your child.

Assuming your Lisa Simpson is like kind of like. You're a child who wears pearls? Get out. Yeah. I always, I can't even. She did wear pearls. She wears pearls. Did Marge wear him too?

Marge has... She had pearls, but she's a mother. Yeah, she's a mother. She's allowed to. She's allowed. I was just thinking maybe she's like, I got to dress my little. But then where was Maggie's pearls? Maggie? She was a baby.

She was a baby. The pearls were too heavy. How does it feel to be Maggie's the cutest, obviously? I was her for Halloween once, and everyone goes, are you the Statue of Liberty? Shut up. I said, is the Statue of Liberty blue with the pacifier? You're an idiot. You're an idiot.

Yes. It's the statue of the real. It's answered that question. But wait, can I say, apparently they got rid of couch gags on the Simpsons. In the beginning opening? Why? Because it just saves time.

Because it just, there's more time to do... I don't like that. Show. What? It took three seconds. And we'd love to see each time what it was. I loved it. But they must have ran out of ideas.

No way. Get new writers. Stop. You guys should do that on this couch. Every time you come in. Yes. I'm still, I don't know about this couch. Okay.

What do you think about it? I do feel like I'm interviewing you guys. What do you want to ask? I'm here with Matt and Bowen. They have a podcast together and they're gay guys and their friends. And I'm here to get down to the nitty gritty. Have you guys ever kissed? I don't know.

That's all I could think of us. On a New Year's. Did you really? Like a peck on New Year's. Yeah. Yeah. I, um, that makes sense. Right.

Have you ever kissed us? Yes. No. Do you kiss your closest friend? I'm trying to think if I, well, no, yeah. My, my, I have girlfriends from growing up who like, there's two of us that are queer and the rest of them, like, we get drunk and they're like, let's kiss. And it's like, you guys, they all have husbands. Right.

So like, we give them a kiss and they're like. It's like, he, he, he. Yes. But did you ever have a friend in middle or elementary school, like in those young. years where like things got a little bit. No, I wish. I wish to. Like everyone talks about that.

I was just too like, I don't want to say like I was, I'm not like saying she was a loser, but like I, you know, I thought of myself as a one. You know what I'm saying? When you're like little and you're chunky and you're like. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you're saying that you thought of yourself as a loser? Of course. And so therefore you were.

So I was like, I don't get to kiss anybody. I'm right there with you. Also like, yeah, it's like so sad. Like, I wish I could go back and be like, my, but even I say that, but then even now, I'm like, who am I going to kiss? Like, get away from me. Exactly. There was, there, the only reason I say it is because a lot of people are like, oh, yeah. I mean, of course, my one friend in middle school where, you know, you like jerked each other off or whatever the fuck.

And I was just like, people talk about this like it's a thing. It was not a thing for me. I had one very, very close friend in middle school. Yeah. Where if it was going to happen, it was definitely going to be with him because we would do sleepovers and we would, like talk about each other's bodies and stuff. And this is the time when like everyone was horny, like, no matter what. Yeah.

And I was like, thinking back, like, we were like 12 or 13. And I was just like, it was like maybe better that it didn't happen because it could have gotten weird. But I do look back and I think like everyone, or not everyone, but a lot of people I have talked to that are gay guys have had that experience in their past with guys that ended up being straight and are now married with kids. Yeah. Probably never looked back.

Yep. You know, but like you look back and you're like, yeah, I was a little gay with some of my friends sometimes before the voice in your head told you, don't do this, it's bad. You were trying it out. Yeah, but there is that it makes me a little bummed out that like people get so like legit. And then I wonder, I do wonder if looking back like the the knowledge that we were really close made us not be friends anymore. Yeah. You know what I mean? Because we weren't friends in high school.

And I would like see him around and I'd be like, remember we were best friends? And we talked to each other's bodies. We talked about each other's bodies and like, got boners next to each other. Oh. And now we're not. Yeah, at least like I'd never to deal with that kind of thing. We don't talk anymore. Charlie Puth, man.

Like we used to. I was, I was rudely being like, why did Charlie pierce his eye around someone? I was like, that was a dog bite. And I said, I'm sorry, Charlie Pruth. I like to publicly apologize to Charlie Puth. Oh, that's okay. From my blog. What's up with Charlie Puths?

Full blog. Bring blogs back. Oh my God. You could. Substack? People are going to blog. Oh, yeah. They go each it on subsstack.

The way that you're, you were smiling Bowen. And when I said substack, the biggest round in the world. Well, because, no, because I'm thinking through like, substack is it blog? Substack feels like a different model where. Yeah. The live journal, Zanga, blog spot, ecosystem. My Zanga. I got bullied on my Zanga.

No, Maggie, all of these Bullied us sides are people being awful to you. I'm bullied on my Zanga, which it's like It was someone that like I knew, of course. You let them in. Yeah. And my thing was like, dear Zanga or whatever the hell. Like I'm having a great day.

I went to the park and then it was like someone bullied me on it. Delete my Zanga. What did they say? I guess I'm never going to the park. Yeah, they were like, guess the park's ruined for life. Guess the park sucks. No, like something's so. But it is funny to laugh

But then like I did like obviously talk about in therapy for years Where I was like my Zanga My therapist, Elizabeth Elizabeth I told her I was doing this and she was like She's been with me for six years Isn't that crazy? She knew what the hell this was?

Yes I have a genuine pitch Because it's like I mean this is so recency bias Get a Nintendo DS And play any old Pokemon game It'll feel like you're on your phone for hours, but you're just leveling up your Pikachu.

That is great of it. And it's actually not hurting anybody. You're just pumping your brain with cute little animals. And it's making Pikachu stronger. It's making Pikachu stronger. I didn't know a lot of a Pokemon, but I did love jigglypuff. Aesthetically and just culturally. Oh, the scene of the little songs, yeah.

Yeah. You know who else loves jigglypuff? Lady Gaga. Ms. Maga. Who is that? Me and was crying. Who's that? She's for real Italian.

She's for real Italian. She's not my fake grandpa Italian. She's Italian-American. Oh my God. Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga. I saw her at Lalapalooza. Do you remember?

Do you ever go on there? I want to go so bad. I used to serve alcohol at it. Really? You worked. So like at the bar? Yes, I worked. At the bar.

And people would come up and be like, one beer, please. And I'd be like, what beer? There's about seven. And they'd be like, you know, just the classic. I'm like, okay, you're 15. Or you're from out of town. Oh, that's just. Because that's another, like, Midwest thing as I was like,

we have a lot of different beers. Like we know about a lot of beers. Not everyone does. But it says it on the thing. Like, I need to know which one. But also, like, the young people, I'm going to give you the beer. Sorry to, I don't work it anymore.

Sorry, to the law. The law. I'm sorry, to be clear. I'm sorry. Charlie Puth in the law. We've got it down. You know, a lot of people get very sick at music festivals because they get alcohol.

They're dehydrated. And they're too young. And you shouldn't have done that. No, if they had a good idea and they were like, oh, one guy came on to me and he was wasted, I had him in water and then he walked away, he didn't know where he was. Great. Oh, see, oh, thank God for you. But you're saying it's clearly these young kids when they're like, I'll have a beer and you go, which one? And they go, as you said, a classic, which is never.

A classic. And I don't even drink. I don't like beer. I like everything else. So I don't know what the classics are. What beer? Well, a classic. Well, a classic of course.

Well, this reminds. And I've told this story before in the podcast, but this was when I was clearly underage. at a bar in Brooklyn, and just because I had seen it in movies, I go, um, can I have a beer and, um,

and I'll have one for the road, too. I'm at the bartender looks to me and goes, that's extremely illegal. That's extremely illegal. I was like one for the road too. I forget, this is like in Brooklyn somewhere.

This is like junior year at NYU. It was, I was one of my for the road. I bet, I bet he remembers. He was like, This crazy Asian kid. I bet he's like, that's Boa, that was Bowen-Ying.

That was Bowen-1 for the road. Bo-N-1-1 for the road. What's that? My fake ID said I was 5-5. Mine also said I was 5-6. Nobody was, they were like, yeah, okay. And nobody cared. Yeah.

Well, I got away with it until I really didn't. Yeah. And they were like, okay, I'll just, the name on it. Should I say the name? Because it was a real person. Let's say it. It was. Ab-sug.

And the name was spelled like this. A, B, C, U-G. And I was like, this is a real person. Like a friend of a friend gave me this fake ID. Not only was it like not me in the picture. It was five, six. And the name, despite it being real, looked fake. Yeah, that was like, I was like,

what name has ABC all in a row? Like none. You need it to think about it. That is so good. What's your last name? It's going to say, so let's just do ABC. Yeah. What if we, like, weren't right to you?

Yes. This is really good. And they go back to Jay. For the people coming up with the names for the Yides. Mine was a real girl. Her name was Maggie, Maggie, Maggie, but it was like Margaret. She had curly brown hair, but the 5-5 thing. Like, I was like up here, like, here's my ID.

Yeah, totally. Yeah. But it worked. It did work for a little bit until it expired. And then they were like, this expired. I was like, come on. Yeah. Come on.

I turned 21 in Europe, and the way they did not care. Of course. I was in Amsterdam. I'm like, I'm 21. They go, we can drink here one or five. Of course. I drink Heineken's disgusting. Sorry to them.

Join me, Lily Herman, as we dive into the under-explored pockets of F-1, including the astrology of the current grid. Lewis Hamilton, Crapicorn Sun, Cancer Moon.

Wouldn't you know it? Michael Schumacher is also a Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. The story of the sports most consequential driver's race. We have one man who, upon hearing that he was going to be fired, freaked out, and apparently climbed out the window of the bathroom. And was Daniel Ricardo's illustrious F1 career, a success story, a cautionary tale, or some combination of both? He started getting all this attention, and he maybe started to think, I'm bigger than this, I'm better, and plenty of other mishaps, scandals, and sagas that have made Formula One a delightful, decadent, gumster fire for more than 75 years. Listen to No Grip on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, host of the on-purpose podcast.

I'm joined by Luke Combs, award-winning country music artist, and one of the most authentic voices in music today. Luke opens up about success, self-doubt, mental health, and what it really takes to stay true to who you are when your life changes overnight. I hate fame. I hate the word celebrity. I hate those words. make me uncomfortable. But I think when you get to a certain point, the fame or the success or the influence, it just accentuates and exacerbates the inherent person that you are. The guy that says he's always going to be there and that will do anything to be there is the only guy that's not

there. I'm in Australia when Bo is born. My whole identity is that no matter what, I'm going to prioritize my wife and my children over my job. I dread the conversation with my son. What do you think you'd say? Listen to On Purpose with Jay Chetty on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In 2023, a story gripped the UK, evoking horror and disbelief. A nurse who should have been in charge of caring for tiny babies is now the most prolific child killer in modern British history.

Everyone thought they knew how it ended. A verdict, a villain, a nurse named Lucy. Lucy Letby. Lucy Letby has been found guilty. But what if we didn't get the whole story? The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapses. I'm Amanda Knox, and in the new podcast, Doubt the case of Lucy Lettby, we follow the evidence and hear from the people that lived it, to ask what really happened when the world decided

who Lucy Lettby was. No voicing of any skepticism or doubt. It'll cause so much harm at every single level of the British establishment. of this is wrong. Listen to doubt the case of Lucy Lettby on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Well, I'll tell you

what we're having is around Robin. I don't think so, honey. I can't believe this. You've done it. Yeah, I did. Well, I need to preface mine. Was I at that one? No, that was the one.

Bummer. Me and Pat Regan co-hosted. Am I going first? No. Oh. Don't you worry. Bone go second. Yeah, I just, you guys both looked at me and I was like, something changed.

Just we looked at you expectantly like, ready? Well, this is where we take one minute to rail again something in culture. Matt has kind of volunteered to go first. Yeah, well, traditionally I do. I have the timer ready to go. This is Matt Rogers. I don't think so. Honey, his time starts now.

I don't think so, honey, everyone's sleeping on Tyler. The singer Tyler. Now, I don't think anyone actually is sleeping on her because I looked at her Spotify streaming numbers and she has about 36.7 million listeners a month, which is so many. But I will say maybe it's an out of thing so honey to me because I recently watched the Tyler performance of Chanel

on the Tonight Show. This should be the climax of every gay guy music video night. I didn't know that she had live vocals like this. I didn't know that she could move her body like that. I didn't know a woman could be so gorgeous. A shoe could be so iconic. She does the performance outside of like a, I guess it's a Chanel heel. I've never experienced anything like this song.

I love it so much. I listen to it constantly. The song Chanel by Tyler, it's got to be a record of the year nominee. And one thing I will also say is that my TikTok algorithm is now only Donald Trump AI doing the dance, which sucks, but I don't think so funny. And that's one minute. Chanel and the shy. Unfortunately, now the TikTok algorithm,

or not TikTok because I don't have it anymore, my Reels algorithm is just, it found out I like this song, and I guess a popular TikTok trend, not I guess it is, is the Chanel dance. Yeah. And it's just AIs of like Trump and Kim Jong-un

They're obsessed. And I will send them to my friends and they'll be like, we don't like this. Right. And I'll be like, I did, but I can't deal with it alone. No. You need a friend in that.

just like it's like Donald Trump in a bikini like going back and forth with Hillary Clinton in the bikini. I made that one. And it's like they're doing the Chanel Tylenolans and I'm just like I can't deal with social media anymore. It's just not.

No. I can't do it. And if you watch it for more than four seconds you can't not because it's like what? It's sticking. It sticks. They go, you like that. And then your algorithm is cooked.

Yeah. Well, there you go. Yeah. That was, I'm going to put some more, I'm going to put some more respect. It's okay. You live, you learn, and then you speak. You lose, you. Can I look at your phone because I need to use it for Bowen Yang's time?

This is Bowen Yang's. I don't think so, honey. His time starts now. I don't think so honey, as mentioned before, the spice wrap. Yes. The spice, what? I want the spices in three jars maximum. My home cannot accommodate a rack of any kind, except a gorgeous pair of breasts.

If it's going to be... My goodness. If it's going to be, oh, God. Like, I can't even come up with... I can't even think of the spices. Paprika. Nutmeg. Saffron.

Claves. Claves. Garlic powder. I'm good with the actual thing. Thank you. Onion powder. I'm good with the actual thing Thank you very much

What did you say? Bachelamel No, that's a sauce A spice rack ketchup It's a thing that we give to each other At Christmas time No, it takes

As I said, it takes up an entire Sim Square And that's one minute Oh my God That's Jamal I was shocked that I knew too That's one on a crockmon square Yeah

Or just for No more sure Just any white thick sauce Like mac and cheese What don't you mean about your good on the powder? What do you mean I'm good on the powder? You'd rather just have garlic? No, I'm saying,

Are you doing cocaine at home? If his recipe calls for garlic powder I've got a garlic press I think what you were doing Was you were using coded language I'm good on the powder He has a plenty of powder He has a pizza party

Oh my God Wait, God, I love nothing more than pizza party. Then, oh, then Pete's on Friday watching a movie. And we're eating, we're eating in whatever kind we want. Yes. Because the, and I forgot to say this, the big style in Chicago is more tavern than it is Deep Dish.

No, of course. But Deep Ditch is still good. Detroit style? Incredible. Detroit style. Oh, we have, what's the Detroit chain? Jets. We have Jets here.

So, their ranch is out of this world. Oh, I love Ranch. And I don't usually go crazy with ranch, but they're, you can get a little bottle. It's like, they're Midwest, they know. Come on. Jets. I'll never think of D. dish pizza the same way again, though, because when we years ago went to Chicago SketchFest, we were performing with our- Which like doesn't exist anymore.

We were performing with our musical sketch comedy group called Pop Rulet. We went to Giordano's? We absolutely went. It's not the one to go to him. It was next to the theater. We had to. We went ham on Deep Dish. And then we did our musical numbers, which we were just bouncing around, like dancing.

It was just like the hardest ground ever. And we can just hear everyone going, just like all the pizza inside us. You gotta go to see. You gotta lay down afterwards. In the one bathroom we were all sharing. There was nine of us. There was nine of us that we all took turns.

We were like, oh! And then for some reason we all went to Piquads the next day. Yeah, we went to Piquas the next day. Yeah. Because we were like in Chicago. We got a deep dish every night. We were also 25. You know what I mean?

Like it was very different. Things didn't affect us then, yeah. Yeah, they really did. Oh my God. Okay, Maggie, it's time. Should I preface my. Or should I say it afterwards, what I want to say? What do you move to do?

What feels right? I'll say after why I did this. Okay, I love that. So you guys are ready. Why I did this. There's going to be an afterward, but we always have a discussion after. A posts script. A posts script.

If I don't think so many, this is Maggie Wenders, I don't think so many. Her time starts now. I don't think so honey. I don't think so funny. First of all, you didn't come to Chicago in 2017 because you were in Washington, D.C. or wherever the hell. What were you doing? I was writing for the time.

for the television series the other two. Yeah, I'm sure. And oh, one of my favorite shows. Am I jealous? Yes. I don't think so many Bowen. What is your best friend, Ariana Grande?

Yeah, I'm jealous. I am the comedian of Christmas Pass. Here to remind you of your past, okay? Don't think I didn't look up a little show called Lake Homo High. It needs you to bring the run back to a noise theater. I don't think so, honey.

Sam Taggart, where are you? I don't think so, honey. Me, you guys graciously having me on this podcast and me trying to drag. you. I'm not actually dragging you. I don't think so, honey, everyone in the room not laughing at this? That sucks. I don't think so, honey.

You guys are great, but you guys need to come back to Earth, okay? Five seconds. The Union Hall called, you're doing a show tonight. Yes, let's get it all. You know what's funny is when we used to do shows at Union Hall no one would come. No. Like, I remember we did a whole show, like as Popper-Rull out one time with the band and everything, and I was like, why can't

we fill it out? I know. It was like 8 people. We did a great cover of Your Love is My Drug by Kesha. We did. It's great. They're not laughing because they agree with you. No, I'm totally kidding. I was just. No.

You don't. I had to do that. So, well, in 20, 18 was it? 2018. I picked the troll bowl. Rest in peace. Where is she also? She's not.

She's dormant. I picked the troll bowl and I got you. Oh, really? What did you say? I think, because you were in D.C., I was like, you love Trump, obviously. I don't remember I blacked out. Wait, why was I in D. I don't think I was.

I think I was... You were somewhere. It was because they were the other two room. I was writing on the other two. That got you. So I was like, and then I also wanted to do this in respect to Annie Donnelly. Yes! We were just talking about Annie Johnley.

She was the one that told me about Lake Homohai. Was that what it's called? Yes, that's what it's called. She was like, tell them that they need to go to their run. Oh my God. See, you know what? Lake Homohy. High was actually a highlight.

It was a highlight because we were writing in 30 pages every week of script. I heard there was a straight guy in it you're mad about. There was? Oh, maybe there wasn't. Lake Humu Hai was actually how, was it how we met Patty Harrison?

It was. I met Patty Harrison at a show called It's a Guy Thing, host to Batemitra Jihari. Oh, I loved it's a guy thing. It's a guy thing. They came to Chicago. They came to Chicago, of course.

They did, they did. No, Lecomo High was how we met, like, I want to say like Djibuki. Definitely Djibuki, but I think I met Patty Harrison doing Lake Como High for everyone at home. Was a like Dawson's Creek-esque, like soapy, like teen show that Sam Taggart created.

Were you a co-creator? I was kind, yeah, like, I was helping. It was both of our ideas, but it was like very much Sam's like brainchild. Wow. Because it feels like Sam. Yeah, it's very Sam. He got astray when I said,

I don't think so much Sam Taggart. But it was all, it was all gay guys that went to this high school. Oh, I wish I could see this. We would like rotate the scripts and like it was always just like a lot of, you know. It was espionage. It was love. It was. I was supposed to say ghost of comedians past and I said comedian of Christmas past.

Which feels right. I really was like, I didn't say anything mean and I was still scared. But I don't remember what I said about you. I just remember being like, I can't believe you're not here. Would it be not good enough for you? Totally. Someone got cat. I remember Cohen.

I don't think they knew what she was. They were like, okay. And everyone was like, this just sucks. That was the time of our lives in Chicago. That was such a fun show. The dream. And I remember I came up too because I've, we didn't, it's actually too much time

to get into the Disney of it all. No, no, please go. Well, because I worked there. You worked at Disney World? Yes, I was in Orlando. Yes, at the college program. At the college program, which like is, yes, we talked about this. Because I, I, I, there were friends from Aurora, Colorado who like,

were like big Disney heads and they were like, their dream was to work in Orlando. through the college program. I worked in Tomorrowland. The worst ride of all time. One of them, Stitch is Great Escape. Oh, yeah, Stichis Great Escape. Rest in peace.

Rest in peace. And then the People Mover. The People Mover. See, the People Mover is a classic. I love the People Mover so much. I got Neil Petcher Carous on it. Stop it. I said, get on.

He's at Disney World. Yes, he's at Disney World with his kids. Is Carousel Progress still there? Yes. It's getting, it's getting, um, refurbished. It's actually getting like, it's apparently. getting the rumor is I can't sometimes with

how I am. The rumor is that it's getting like a Walt Disney animatronic. It should. And the Carousel of Progress is getting updated. Have you heard about Villainsland? Of course. But I heard that it's like... Now there's drama. Yeah. What's the drama? So Josh DeMorrow

became the CEO of Disney. And so there's big changes because he came from parks and he was like the plans that y'all were dreaming up for Villainsland are not good enough. go back to the drawing board and do more because they feel the heat now from Epic Universe and Universal.

So a lot of Disney World is getting, like they're putting like billions and billions of dollars. In Conto land, I can't wait. I was just there with my family. Enkanto is going to go into Animal Kingdom. Animal Kingdom. They're making the, what was the dinosaur area, tropical Americas.

I see. So it's getting in Konto and it's also getting Indiana Jones is replacing dinosaur. But not the Indiana Jones from Disneyland, a new version of it. This is the thing, though. Universal's got Nintendo and Pokemon now. Like, you can, that's the number one franchise in-

I understand, but, and I love Universal, but, like, when you go there, it's just so different. Totally. They're like, get on the ride, we don't care. So you are loyal. You bleed Disney. Well, I do go to Universal. I just, I was just, maybe because I was just there.

And the difference between our day at Universal and our day of Disney was just like night and day. Of course. Also, I was looking for food and they were like, you can have fish and chips. And I was like, please don't do this to me. Like I just want like a hot dog. Like I. My moratorium on Universal is, is that the right word? Moratorium.

Your, it's true. Yeah. Is that. So, you know, they're doing, they take down the Rip Bride Rocket. Yeah. And they're replacing it with a fast and a furious roller coaster. Yeah. They need to figure out what else is going on in that universal street.

Studios, Florida Park. Yes, agreed. And I think after go, we said we just went to Universal Studios in Osaka, Japan. Oh my God. I'm going to Japan in November. You are?

I need to tell me everything. We're telling you everything. I went to go to Disney Seas, I think. You should. Yeah, you should. But anyway, they have the Jaws ride at a Universal Osaka, and I'm like, bring it back. Yeah.

But Disney C is fun. I can't wait. What did we have a great time? We had a great time. The roast beef popcorn. Oh? Feels very Chicago. Oh.

Yeah, they go off with the popcorn there. Like every single popcorn stand is flavored different. Ooh. And you go to Osaka because it's literally sister cities with Chicago. Comedy Town, Rivers, huge gay bars. It's very Chicago. I can't wait. I think Osaka's going to be very important for you.

Very Maggie. Osaka Khan. Osaka. That sounds not right. I don't know why. Sure, no. It sounds a little bit like Shaka Khan. Shaka Khan.

Shaka Khan. Osaka Khan. Like Osaka Khan like a convention for. people that love Osaka, like at BravoCon, but with Osaka? I'm going. I haven't been yet, but I'm going. Give some thoughts on Bravo before we end. Oh, my gosh. This is coming out tomorrow, so this is really current.

This is coming out tomorrow? Yeah, this is really current. I would have acted so different. I'm no. And so, yeah, I just binge-watched the current season of married to medicine, and those women are everything to me right now. They really are great. I'm a Quad-Web fan.

You're what? I'm a Quad-Web fan. My favorite is the introduction where it's like, and this is the doctors, then I'll just be like, And quad. Like, they're not the doctors. And quad. It's so good.

And then, I mean, I've watched, I think every show, you know which show I've never watched Miami? Oh, we love Miami. So I want to start it from, like, I think I am in for a journey. You can start from season one or you can start from the rebooted season. Yeah. Okay. I would do that. I think I should.

Okay. I think there's, I think that's a totally acceptable. That's how I did it. And then I have not finished my since the beginning watch, but it's, you're not really missing on too much. Can I name drop of who I'm in dinner with? tonight. Yes. West Wilson. Stop. Wow. I love him.

Well, because Connor. Connor would and he is kind of the one and was like, oh, my friend West and I'm like, yeah, I know who West Wilson is. Like, stop. Of course. So West, I became friends with him and I was like kind of like, we're going to go to dinner with me. I think he's the best dressed person on Bravo. He constantly, every single time I see him on my screen and his confessionals, I smile and light up. I'm like, I love West.

We used to have one. Stephen? Oh, there was a gay guy in the mix. I just feel like that might be a little boring for the gay guy. Well, that's why he would, he'd be like, I just throw some shit up here. Right. We need two, like cats, two gay guys, too guys. Exactly.

Like cats. Oh, my God. Is this, is this how you, how you have cats? You bring cats into an environment? I think, no, I just meant like, I think it's just a get-to, so they have each other. I see. I don't know. I love cats.

I'm allergic. But I'm like, it's like the rare thing where I would love to have a cat. I love that. I'm allergic. Because it's never really going to happen with a cat and a dog. You know what I'm saying? It's like, you can pretend their best friends. They're not.

Your cat does not like your dog. Your dog is so scared of your cat. Have you seen the videos with the cat with the cat on the dog? Drop the video. Drop the video in the comments. Drop the video in the comments. If you've seen that. Matt is speaking from experience because his sister has what on paper or in photos seems like a perfect dog cat partnership.

And then Kelly is just like very like the dog is my sister's always like, yeah, she's terrified of Diego. Like, it's just like, and it's not what you think because the dog is more afraid of your cat. Your cat is not afraid of anything.
