Today, when Maya joined our call, I was breastfeeding Finn under my shirt. That's not the first time it's happened in the last month when a guest got on. So there's that. Let's get this podcast started. Welcome back to Not Gonna Lie, a Wave Original, brought to you by old. Navy. I'm your host, Kylie Kelsey. Personal short-order cook for four tiny humans. I'm currently re-watching Gilmore Girls because it's fall. You're supposed to. And I refuse to admit that I can actually sing. Fuck you, Queen Emma. I can't actually sing. Queen Emma's threatening me with

playing Loud Little Town. And that's messed up. Great song if it had been sung by somebody. else. I'm always slightly fearful that when we have a musical guest on the podcast, that someone is going to tip them off, that I did something I shouldn't have done and hopped on a charity Christmas album because my husband asked me to. Coming up on today's episode, Halloween is only a couple weeks away, so I'm going to get honest about the Halloween costume situation this year in the Kelsey House. Plus, my doom scroll was straight scrolling this week. Really? That's what we're saying, Emma? Plus, my doom scroll was straight scrolling this week. I'm going to talk about the phrase, we're pregnant. Who the fuck is we? After that, I'm going to be joined by a dream guest. She's the

comedy legend you know from S&L and bridesmaids. You guessed it. I have no business talking to her. It's Maya Rudolph. Gosh, this is incredible. But first, it's mid-October, so I figured we'd get a little spooky around here. This is, can I be honest, about Halloween costumes, brought to you by Skittles. Taste the Rainbow. Also, speaking of Skittles, I got to get our candy bowl stocked up soon. You know, I'm going right for the Snickers. Got to get some Milky Way in the mix. because that caramel is good. Speaking of caramel, my favorite. Who doesn't love cookies and caramel in a twix? It's my favorite. I like to bite it and try and hit the little divvits in the cookie. If you don't know what I'm talking about, never mind. Because it might just be a me thing.

Okay, where was I? If anyone has young kids, you know. know that the premise of picking a costume can get a little dicey. We are currently in the situation of buzzer-beater. Typically, I like to have a three-week rule for the girls giving me their costume that they would like. In other words, I want a three-week buffer for me to be able to order the costume and for it to come in the mail. But you know what three weeks is in terms of a six-year-old, a four-year-old, a two-year-old?

It's fucking forever. It's forever. And it's three weeks worth of I have ordered the costume. And then it's forever of trying to figure out how many other costumes I can name that I would like to be for Halloween before my costume arrives. I do typically buy their costumes. I made their costumes one year. We'll insert a picture of that here. Editor Brad's going to nail that. I know it. And they were a corn on the cob and a pea pod. That was Ellie and Y. And that was a nod to my sister and I were that exact costume when we were little.

And it was adorable and it was made of felt and it was a one and done because I'm pretty sure I had to stitch it on to Wyatt. Maybe I'll do it next year. No, I shouldn't. I didn't enjoy myself. But they looked so cute. And I do think a homemade costume, it builds character. because there's always going to be this moment of like, huh, what is it? Oh, it's a corner of the cop. And that brings me to my next point, which is family costumes. Family costumes to the people who get their entire family to dress up in the same theme. And your kids are older than, let's say, four or five. The fuck? How you do that? How you do that? How you do that? How you. How'd you do that? How'd you do that? Because two years ago, we were supposed to do the Little

Mermaid as a collective family. I had an Ursula costume that I never put on, but it's in a bin in the basement. Jason was King Triton, why it was supposed to be Ariel. Ellie was Flounder, which was one of the cutest costumes I've ever seen, accompanied with one of the other, one of the other cute. costumes I've ever seen, which was Sebastian and that was Benny. Okay. In the last, I'm talking, the last, the very last minute before we leave the house. Wyatt decides she doesn't want to be Ariel. This girl has a wig, a full aerial costume that came, you know, with ample time. she when it came put on the wig put on the whole costume was flipping her hair around

she was so into it i'm not joking five minutes before we left the house she goes i don't want to be a real i want to be a witch and the the messed up part is is that we had a witch costume that was a hand-me-down costume from someone in her closet. So we then had, mom dressed as nothing, dad on the other podcast as King Trayton, Wyatt dressed as a witch and flounder in Sebastian. It was in that moment that I decided, fuck family costumes. Fuck them. This year, I'm pretty sure we're going to have two elseas, maybe three.

I don't care. I don't care. Because the only thing that a family costume would do is make a really cute social media post. And I don't know if you guys follow me on Instagram. I don't actually fucking post that much. So I'm not committed to that bit and I will not be partaking. You're going to bleep that, right? While we're talking costumes, I figured I'd give you guys some of my tiny human costume tips

I've gathered over the years. Number one, don't choose anything that will elicit the response, I'm itchy. Okay? Maybe even put a layer of clothing under the costume. Number two, don't purchase a costume that will scare the shit out of the other siblings. my children would not be allowed to be a spider uh we bought a we bought a dinosaur costume for Ellie last year I think it had to get donated within 48 hours she was like it's in the house I can feel its presence anything that's too realistic or has eyes that are too realistic we're out we're not doing it number three, do pick a kid costume that comes with a tail. Because there's nothing cuter than that. God,

when the flounder costume, it was like a bubble costume, so the bottom was sort of a little bit wider. And then it had flounder's little tail. Are you kidding me? Number four, do limit glitter like your life depends on it. Glitter. Horrific. Number five. For all of your diapered tiny humans, do seek out costumes. You know exactly where I'm headed with this with Dipey Access. Okay? You know exactly what's going to happen. You're going to get them dressed head to toe. And then their face is going to start to turn red. And you're going to hear a faint you know what that means they got a surprise in store for you trick or treat you know what i'm saying that's it for my costume tips and can i be honest brought to you by skittles send us your

tips comment on youtube spotify or the ngl subreddit that's right we're on reddit get in there now let's move right on over to doom scroll of the week i doom scrolled passed a viral Reddit thread this past week, where people were debating the phrase, quote, we're pregnant. The post says, my husband keeps saying, we're pregnant, and it drives me up a wall. As supportive as he is, and as much as I appreciate the sentiment behind what he is trying to say when he says, we're pregnant, he is not pregnant. I am the pregnant person. Ugh, men can be so annoying oh. Now, I do think I've corrected myself a couple times on this show about me saying

we are, but we were pregnant or we got a pregnancy test, a positive pregnancy test. I do, I completely see where this woman is coming from. It also, being on the other side of things, being out of pregnancy, that feels like my brain during pregnancy, this rant that she went on, it feels like my, I feel like I'm having an out-of-body experience and I'm just like, like angry typing onto Reddit. To her credit, they are not. pregnant. She is pregnant. A top comment on this Reddit post was, my husband says, quote, we're expecting, which I like. Feels like a good solution. We're expecting. You are expecting. You're both

expecting. Coming from someone who does not enjoy being pregnant, I understand the frustration. He is not building a human. He is not tired like a pregnant person can be. He probably likes the smell of food, which is honestly one of the most infuriating things about pregnancy. Your relationship with food, if you are a person who typically is someone who just gets a lot of joy out of indulging in things that you like, it just, yeah, it really, it feels like, it feels like I read my inner thoughts while pregnant, although my husband does not say we're pregnant. But I do wonder if he caught a vibe. I wonder if he's a fast learner. I wonder if there was a, he's a fast learner. I wonder if there was a moment while I was mean during pregnancy,

because I'm mean during pregnancy. And postpart of me can be like, wow, I was in a bad mood. That was, wow, she was grumpy. I wonder if there was a moment in time where I said something along the lines of like, we're pregnant. No, we're not. I'm pregnant. Where he was just like, oh, okay, don't say we're pregnant. Because he's a smart guy. Here we go. And the last thing on our doom scroll looks like we have some sort of mystery club here from TikTok user at you're an asshole. Let me finish my statement. At Turtle Girl in an NGL world, 876213. Queen Emma. Roll the clip? Is there even a clip?

Hey, Chad, Queen Emma here. And welcome to my TikTok that I definitely didn't want anyone to see, especially not Kylie. This is a PowerPoint presentation party for one. And my PowerPoint presentation is called, why the 48-minute rule sucks ass. Okay, number one. I'm crying. Chad, it forces us to edit out tangents and great stories from our guests. that the real ones deserve to hear.

Too long didn't read. It's killing all our orders. The upgrade from 45 to 48 minutes was hell of chill. So what's another 12 minutes among sisters? Number two. There's never been a real one who was mad about a longer episode.

Oh man, we got extra time with Kylie today. That fucking sucks. Said no one ever. Okay, we make our art for the people, and the people want, cool 60. Number three, the cool 60 episodes are watched by more people, so more fans get to enjoy. Number goes up, so it is happiness. It's easy to follow that, Kylie. Also, by the way, what's cooler than Jason's mullet that you're not extremely into?

Cool 60, got your ass. All right, and number four, oh, I rest my case, that's it. Okay, thanks, bye, see in a little bit. She said see you in a little bit. She said see you in a little bit. Also, the 48-minute rule is totally turtle-ass. First of all, I am crying. There are tears in my eyes.

What the actual... Queen Emma! I want that on TikTok. I want the world to see that. For our audio listeners, that was Queen Emma's voice doing a PowerPoint, a PowerPoint presentation in front of her own television in her living room in the dark of night. I'm not guaranteeing a cool 60 if you post that, but I do want to see, I want to, I want to doomscroll the comments on that TikTok. So you posted to TikTok or I won't even consider it. I'm mad at how much I loved that.

Okay. That's it for Doomscroll the week. Now, let's get to a brand new edition of Tiny Human Question of the Week, brought to you by perplexity. Once again, this is a segment dedicated to the random, difficult to answer, and constant questions I get asked by my own tiny humans. It's a lot of why. And then I answer the why, and then they say why again.

and Queen Emma was actually on the phone the other day and was listening to a conversation where I was eating a salad and Benny asked why I had salad dressing and I said because that's what you put on a salad and she said why and I said to make it taste better and she said why and so we a lot of times I have to find a destination that we can arrive at it's more difficult than you'd think. So for this week's question, a little backstory. The girls, they love lipstick, otherwise known as Lipik. Do we let them wear Lipik?

No. They're not allowed because dad is vehemently against Lipik. And to be fair, I don't really want them wearing Lipik either. But Bennett's fascination with Lippic makes it so that anything in the house that is remotely Lippic shaped, paint sticks, non-toxic, chill out, glue sticks, also non-toxic, chill out, end up slowly migrating towards her lips to be put on as Lippic. So, Bennett asked the other day, Mom, why does Lippick make you look booful? And that is exactly how it was pronounced. Lippic make you look booful. Now, I said something to the effect of, well, sometimes when you want to be fancy,

you can put a little color on your lips. Of course, that was not sufficient, and we ended up in another why tunnel. Why? Because sometimes you want to look fancy. Why? Because maybe you have somewhere to go. Why? Because you got invited somewhere, even though everyone knows you don't want to leave the house.

You get it. Let's get Benny a serious answer, though. Queen Emma, can you pull up perplexity and ask, why does lipstick make you look beautiful? Lipstick can make you look beautiful by enhancing the shape, color, and fullness of your lips, drawing attention to your face and complementing your natural features. Easy. Wearing lipstick can boost your self-confidence. That's what Benny is talking about.

Definitely what Benny is leaning into. Anyone who wears lipstick around Benny, she will clock it immediately. That's it for Tiny Human Question of the Week. brought to you by perplexity coming up. Maya Rudolph is joining me. I'm going to try to compose my fan girl energy. While I do that, enjoy these messages from me.

And Skittles is producing more than just their iconic candy this Halloween season. They've also got a new TikTok series you've got to check out. That's right. Skittles is flipping the script on the whole spooky angle and instead hit us with a 90s style sitcom called Ghost Rommate.

Thans can binge the full season on TikTok in 63 seconds. Add that to your doom. scroll. Most brands use short clips to get you to watch longer ads.

She's the hilarious six-time Emmy Award winner and comedy icon you know and love from Saturday Night Live, bridesmaids, grownups, and her hit show Lute on Apple TV. Season 3 is streaming now. And now she's officially not going to lie, Maya Rudolph, welcome to the show. It's so nice to be here. I am so excited to have you. Aw. It, I don't even know where to start every single time I get to watch something.

SNL, bridesmaids, at literally anything you're in. Lute, it's just such a good laugh. And you're incredible. That's a really nice compliment. I probably don't even tell you that. Thank you. You can always tell me that. It's nice to hear it.

Let's be honest. It really helps. Good. Because at your home, I'm a mom, and I have a household of teenagers, and everything I say is wrong. That'll tear you down. You think? it's so it's so heavy you're like tough critics tough critics man you think like oh i made i gave birth to these humans i gave them life and they're my my bffs forever and i dress they let me dress them

and i suggest things and they have to obey and then one day they just turn on you they're like you're wrong that's not right and i know it's right Yeah. I'm just preparing you for a beautiful. I'm actually like preparing you for the future. So when it hits, it doesn't hit as hard. Because they come out of it. I do think they're easing me into it, though, because our four-year-old looked at me this morning when I said, we have to hurry up and put our shoes on her. We're going to be late. And she said, like we usually are. I said, okay. Wow. Well, shots fired. Got it. John's fire. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Yeah, they humble you. Now, now that I've taken this completely off the rails. No, I did. Well, we'll both. We'll both take a little credit. We're going to come back to SNL because I have to ask you about it, specifically about the group of badass women that you worked with. Yeah. This is a dumbass question, so bear with.

with me. I love it. As a non-comedian here, what do you think made you all so fucking funny together? It's actually a great question. And I have to say, it's kind of, I think we were all kind of raised with similar ethics in a similar time, I think, because we've all talked about it. You know, I think we were all good daughters, good students. We, we, we, we, we, we, we, all more or less came, well, I think all of us actually came from similar comedy backgrounds, which was either groundlings where I came from on the West Coast or Second City on the East Coast. And it's where you learn the skills to be part of a group and write for yourself and also right for others in order to elevate the scene. and learn give and take as opposed to like just getting up there and me, me, me, me, me, me.

It was like, I look great when you look great and I set you up, you set me up. I just think all of those things happened at the same time. And all of us kind of knew each other or knew of each other more or less. Like I didn't know Tina and Amy and Rachel. They all knew each other at Second City. But when we met, it was very similar. It was very much like similar roots, like sister from another mister kind of thing where you're like we have a lot of the same pop culture references and grew up in the same time. I also just feel like, I don't know, it was such a great time because we didn't have smartphones.

People weren't making the content before we got to make it on Saturday. So we were able to make it and able to, you know, be the first one. to coin mom jeans. I mean, that's Tina, 150%. Now, of the following women, Tina Faye, Amy Poehler, Rachel Dratch, Kristen Wigg. Who made you break the most? I'm notoriously known for breaking the least, however, I would say, who was I in sketches with the most?

I mean, I guess Amy, right? I'm trying to think. I mean, I have a thing with Rachel where I like to make her laugh, but she makes me laugh. I mean, I think Tina's like, she's like this stealth bomber. Like, she'll lay something so quiet and so, like, direct. And you're just like, it's so sharp and insanely funny. I feel like everyone's made made me break, but I'm, I'm weird. Like, it must be a nervous tick.

I'm not a breaker. That's not true. Kristen made me break the most in that, in that one sketch. It was Showcase Showdown when we were saying chicken by chicken man. That's what it was. And you know why? I know why. She started laughing before we started doing the sketch.

She started off on the wrong foot. She was just giggling, and I was like, what are you doing? She's like, I can't stop. I can't stop. I don't know what's happening. And I thought it was just a dress. And then at air, the minute she got into the golf cart, it was over. She was just, she was crying.

Like, when you see someone crying, it's like church laughter, you can't stop. It's over. No. It's the backseat of the car when your parents are already pissed. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Now, that's another side of things.

like you being that good at not breaking. I mean, I don't know if it's good or if it's just like paranoia to be like, don't get in trouble. But is that is that like what's happening in your brain? Because my brain equates it to like the edge of breastfeeding, right? Like I'm like with a baby crying near me and I'm like, oh my God, cookies, pineapples, Cappy Burra, like literally anything to not think about to not.

think about the child crying, that's, that's how I equate it. Is there a thought process that you do? Or is it just like, you're just like, I'm powering through eye, like, eye on the prize? It's so funny. I don't. It's not conscious. It's not conscious. No. As a matter of fact, like, I genuinely don't know why. Like, I don't look nervous when I'm super nervous, like about to start the show, but my body fully sweats. Like, I get that horrific. they call it like flomp sweat just like wet armpit it's just it's just wet armpit it's awful and it's not even like like be oh it's just like water just like you're nervous your body's nervous it's letting you know but i seem really cool and calm that's so nice for you i really i really don't i really don't know why

but i'm not that's so nice i still remember i got up to public speak somewhere and I walked in and I was so upset because it was an acrylic like clear podium and I was like the minute I got up there I was like I'm going to address the elephant in the room you're going to be able to see my knees trembling it's a thing it happens we're just eyes up here we're going to pretend but that's the difference if I had to go speak to a room of people as myself I too would look nervous if I'm performing I do not look nervous I don't know why that Because like if you have to, like when you go to your kids school night and they go over and they say, we're going to go around the room. I'm like, God damn it. Can we not? Do I have to say my name? That thought of hearing myself say my name makes me like all the saliva in my mouth just run away. It makes me so nervous to go, hi, I'm Maya. It's awful. Nobody likes that. And I really don't like it. I don't like the sound of my voice.

When I had an answering machine and you could hear your outgoing message, you'd be like, Hi, I'm Maya. Leave message. I don't, I don't like it. I don't like the sound. I don't like any of it. We should, we should get rid of that. We should just, we should, hi, my name is, name tags and call it a day.

Call it a day. Just call it a day. Although no one would get my name right, which is a whole other. People still don't know how to spell or say Maya. And you know what? God bless. It's okay. sorry what? So my whole life, no one can get my name right or spell it right, which is why when I go

to Starbucks, I do not say Maya because if I say Maya, then the person will write M-Y-A or M-I-A on the cup, which is not the spelling of my name. And then the next person will say, Mia. And then I have to say yeah right here it's me me i i can't get over the fact that people don't know how to spell your name so what's the worst pronunciation you've heard of my name i've heard my i've heard mea maya moira no morea can you tell me anyone you've met under the age of 85 named moira who's named moira anybody Do I look like a Moira? Let's start in a more pressing question.

Where the fuck's the R? There's no, there's no R. I can't, I don't know if I'm going to be able to get it. This is going to keep me up at night. But just so you know, I do not give my name at Starbucks. It just doesn't work. It's not worth it. So what's the go-to?

Donna. It's Donna. Everybody knows Donna. No one's fucking up. Not one person is fucked up, Donna. Not one. Wow. Okay.

So if you see me to assume, hey, Donna, I'll go, hey. Hey, Donna, how's that chile-Lat? It's busing. It is busing. Oh, my God. Okay. Let me get, let me, that just, I'm so distracted by that. No, it's, it's a tragedy.

Like, I had to, like, rewrap my whole. morning routine to like figure out how to not get bummed out every time I give my name at Starbuck. It's quality problems man. Moira. Moira. I'm not so if I ever see you in person I'm not saying hi Donna. I'm saying hi Moira. Moira. Myra? Did I mention myra? There's no more. People love to call me myra. Oh, it's Myra Randolph. I'm sorry. I can't. Who is named these things?

Mariah. I've gotten Mariah. But besides that, besides that, how after all of the iconic shit that you have done are people not getting your name right? Oh, please. Everywhere I go, because everyone has a phone in their hand, people see me and I see their eyes go like this and then they go like this and they talk to their friend and then they pick up their phone because they're trying to figure out my name and they're like because they know bridesmaids

or they know grownups but they don't totally remember my name. I also sometimes I feel like maybe because all the years at Saturday Night Live, you know, you play so many. You play so many different things. I wore so many wigs, you know, I was so many characters. Maybe people don't really know what I look like. Also, I just feel like I don't really wear makeup. I, you know, when I'm not working, like, I am a normal person in going through life. So I feel like when people see me on the street, they're like, where's their makeup? That's not her. You know, or a lot of times people will say that's not her to me like like in front of me they'll go that's not her that happened to me you know how you sometimes at the airport you have to take those buses to the

planning in like the shuttle bus and you're like really all this all this construction and you guys made me get on this thing where I'm like doing this with my bags now yes just was on one recently and these two women were like talking to each other and they were like one was like and the goes, that's not her right in front of me. And I wanted to be like, yeah, it is her. But I was like, yeah, it's not her. Not today. Today it's not her. Today, she's tired. That's like when people used to ask my husband, they'd be like, aren't you, aren't you Travis Kelsey? They'd accidentally slip up on the wrong brother. That's great. And he would be like, nah, it's not me. I mean, would not. That's it. That's all he would give them. And I'm like, I can't even fault you because you

didn't lie. Didn't lie. Wasn't rude. It's not him. Nope. Wasn't him. Now, you mentioned portraying different people on SNL. You portrayed a lot of real people. Oprah, Kamala Harris, Beyonce, who was the hardest to learn to impersonate? Oprah. Oprah was hard because, and it was early on, like, you know how at this point, everybody kind of knows what the Oprah impression is or like at a certain point like everyone was doing an Obama oppression. You're like, oh yeah, that's it. But like somebody had to do it first. And I watched Oprah growing up, but I didn't have an impression of her. And I, to be fair, like I never started SNL as an impressionist. I think I'm, I'm the person that if I'm telling a

story about somebody, I mimic their voice. But I don't think of myself as like, here's my 50 impression. Like, I, that's not, I feel like I do characters more. Now, speaking of your impressions, I have my producer pull a clip from the last time you played Beyonce. I'd love to play it and have you break it down if that's okay. No problem. Okay. All right. So Cowboy Carter is part of a three album trilogy. You need to shut you, Charlie Brown looking at a minute and you need to listen to me. Beyonce about to do something very human so I need you to blur my face in three, two, one.

Outstanding, first of all. Well, thank you. The Hot Ones clip I had to take because this is not the only time that you've been in character on Hot Ones. No, this is the third, that was the third time. I, first of all, I love Hot Ones. When we were shooting Lute, I was like, can we do a hot ones?

Like, that's the show that Molly would go on. She'd want to go on hot ones and be like, I got this. And then was it, I think it was somebody else's idea for Beyonce to do hot ones the first time I did it on S&L. It was not mine. I think it was Mikey and Streeter's idea who I think Mikey's playing Sean. And then we had so much fun We wanted to do it again Because we wanted the idea of like

She will not She will not give up She wants to win Hot Ones And she will not be defeated Now you just mentioned Molly on Luke goes On Hot Ones in season one We're blowing my fucking shorts out

On fucking national television It's a YouTube trip I don't give a fuck What the fuck it is? And I'm still not sure if anyone on TikTok realizes that's not really you. I know. Doesn't that sum up TikTok for you? It does.

There are comments on the TikTok. God damn, she was so rude at the end. She's being so mean to him. You can clearly see him get uncomfortable. Have you had to come? correct anyone in real life? Many times. You have.

So I got a compliment recently from a bartender who said, you were great on Hot Wings. And I said, thank you. I was never on Hot Ones. It was just a scene we did on my TV show.

Didn't matter. He was like, yeah. Like, I want to believe exactly what I believe. It's fascinating. My name is Molly in the clip. Yes. It's not Maya. Now, granted, maybe the lady from the shuttle bus was watching it and she was like, not her. And she was on hot ones. Like, I get it. It's confusing. I don't, I don't expect everybody to know everything about me. Is it confusing? Is it? I think the real ones will agree in addition to pulling your kids in a wagon through an apple orchard or a warm slice of Dutch apple crumb with no ice cream.

Play the server slam open test from October 17 through 19th on PlayStation 5 Xbox Series X-N-S and PC. I'd love to ask you some more about Lute. The third season is officially out right now on Apple TV. Go stream it immediately after this. I saw a clip from season three, spoiler alert, where your character, Molly, says one of my favorite phrases. What? You want to fuck around and find out? Yeah.

You want to fuck around and find out? find out. I love saying that. When there's moments in life to say it, isn't it satisfying? Beyond satisfying. It hits so harsh. Yes. And it's the, it's such a more fun way to say like karma's a bitch, you know? Yeah. You fucked around, you found out. Yeah. Yeah. I love it. It's like, I'm so angry that I'm calm. Yeah. I'm level headed and I'm filled. with rage. You're fucking welcome. Oh, you want to fuck around and find out? Yeah, I'm right now I'm calm and I'm letting you know that I will fuck you up completely. It's such a fun. It's such a fun point of view. It's such a fun position to be in. I'd love to switch gears a little and ask

about one of my favorite movies, bridesmaids. Please. First of all, I, I, I, I, I can't explain it, but it scratches an itch in my brain at the end when you and Kristen Wigg are doing like this dance and the air drums and stuff. It just, I don't know what, I don't know what it is. It is so satisfying to watch. You know what? That's, that's just us. It's girlhood.

It feels good. That was girlhood. Yeah. And when you said the thing about breaking before, yeah, that's us. That was us making each other laugh. And like, yep, that. I mean, we were standing. It was, I don't know.

time of night it was and we were in like botanical gardens somewhere in Pasadena or something and my dress was maybe 300 pounds. It was so heavy and they had to have a standing post for me because a leaning post for me because it was so heavy and I couldn't sit. And Wilson Phillips was out there and we were like, what's life? What's life? What's happening? And you're tired because you've been filming a movie, but also delirious because you're laughing so hard, so much of the time that we were, we were, we were just fucking around. And we found out. And we found out. Everyone found out. Everyone found out. But we were having fun. And I do feel like I'm definitely like an air instrument person and I like to make my friends laugh. And I feel like that was the. Yeah. Yeah.

It's the dance floor face. It's all of it. It's all of it. Yeah, it's great. It's crawled. Now, what bridesmaids quote do people say to you the most? People sometimes just crouch down. And I know that they're shitting in the street that happened me the other day. People just, they say it's happening. They start doing the melt.

And they melt down. I was having dinner in Paris and in the window in the hallway. I went crouch down, crouch down, crouch down, crouch down, crouch down. mm-hmm um no yeah but it was kind of great I loved it I mean I would say the shitting in the street is referenced my favorite favorite reference to it was at a Starbucks yet again and they didn't ask me for my name and I was like all right cool and I was with my daughter and then I got my cup and it said for the woman that took a shit in the street on my cup on my she wrote shit on your cup yeah he wrote shit on your cup

and my daughter was like what does it say mama oh I'll tell you what it says I mean it's better than Mia you know what it is I'll take it I thought you were going to say

they yelled it's happening when your cup was up I mean they might as well have Either way. I feel like it's that. And I feel like people usually reference Kristen's lines to me. Like, it's, I'm ready to party.

Like, that's great, honey. That's great. Not my line, but I'm not. God. Now, you, I just read that you were pregnant with your third when you were shooting. Is that right? No. But you could, but you will appreciate.

this. Okay. I was nursing my second oldest daughter and she was seven months. So I had that like thing where my boobs were filled with milk. Yep. And my stomach was like, are we still pregnant? What's happening? Your organs were like, wait, we're supposed to go back? Where are we? And then I started reading all of these things about I was pregnant. And because we were trying, I mean, Lisa Evans, our costume designer was a miracle worker and got me into clothing that I didn't think I'd ever get in, but I was seven months postpartum. Being in a movie, even within a year of giving birth to a human being, sounds like my worst nightmare.

It's really hard. Because trying to get dressed postpartum, I swear to God, is one of the worst experiences that a human being can experience in their life it's human torture I was watching um dancing with the stars my daughter is obsessed with it and she said that one of the girls on it which is on um Mormon wives the Mormon wives sure reality show is had a baby like nine weeks before or something bananas where I was like wait I couldn't walk what are you talking about nine weeks? I don't think those dance costumes allow for that much. What if it was a diaper, but it was this narrow?

Wouldn't it be crazy if she did like a high kick and you could see the ruffles? Of the diaper. The Velcro just came undone. I mean, I think she's much younger than me. I started having children when I was 33 and my last one was at 41. So my body was like, you're old. What are you doing? Stop.

Stop doing this. I was like, what? But I mean, my body was not. Has anyone done a welfare check on her? Like, her kicks are so hot. I think there should be an exercise class that is basically dancing with the stars, but just you don't have to dance on television. Because everyone is in the show. shape of their lives and everyone is in the best mood. It's like the most positive like life enforcing

like, oh my God, I'm so proud of myself moment. And everyone's bodies are banging. But I want to do that just privately. I don't want to do it on television. Don't call Maya about this. Please don't call me because I want to do it, but I just don't want to do it in front of anybody. No. I couldn't agree with that. Yeah. I love it. Now, switching gears again, I just watched a clip of you on Seth Myers last year where you had to guess the mascots for the college basketball suite 16. Oh, boy.

I remember that. Is this still safe to say that you're not a huge sports fan? I don't know that much about most sports. I know some sports. It's funny because when you were describing your comedy upbringing, it very much. mimics how I think sports have prepared me for life, knowing how to play off of each other, it being a team effort, working together, all of those things. So I love that that's a little bit parallel. I do say it's a, I do say comedy is a group sport. I prefer comedy as a group sport. I say it

all the time. I support that. That sounds great. I, because I would not know how to comedy sport. Comedy. I would not know how to comedy. I would not know how to comedy is my favorite thing you've ever said. I would not know how to comedy, period. I disagree. Just going to say, I think you're funny. Just going to put it out there. I think you could. Well, that's a wrap. We can be done now. I just think you're a funny person. I think that comedy is also timing and I think that it's about the delivery of things and your take on things. And I think I think you're doing just fine.

I mean, I think that it's relative, right? And so, yeah, maybe you didn't do the groundlings and like learn sketch and improv. But you know, I've always said this. my favorite, favorite hosts whenever they were on S&L were always professional athletes. Always. You know what? A locker room shapes you. Yeah. I think so. I think they're also like, I think professional athletes are calm. They're so used to performing live. So by the time they get to S&L, it's like, all right. And their bodies are so relaxed because they've worked out all morning. They're like, I will say I'm biased, but I do think that my brother-in-law, Travis, did an outstanding job when he hosted.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. Yeah. I, every single time, but they're good at everything. Yeah, but it's kind of a pain in the ass. And I also know, like, I know that your husband loved, like, Farley growing up, right? Obsessed. So, like, grew up watching that stuff and probably was imitating it and like, yeah, they're funny. I saw the new Sandler movie.

Travis is funny. Like, they're funny. But Derek Jeter, probably one of my all-time favorite, favorite hosts ever. There was a sketch that my friend wrote where he was wearing, where he came to a party with a perm. And he was just wearing a perm wig. And it might be my favorite memory of that night. That's perfect. Yeah.

How about we keep the bit from Seth Myers going and you guess some more NFL team names? Sure. We'll start with my first. hometown Philadelphia right are they the Phillies that's baseball okay oh this is going to go great I thought for sure I just lobbed you the first one okay okay the Philadelphia football team NFL yep well I know that I know that Pittsburgh are the Steelers I know that great because my dad was originally from Pittsburgh Steelers got it okay got it we had the right Philadelphia Philadelphia I have no idea I could guess sure I would say maybe the Philadelphia

Buccaneers that would be Tampa Bay but it was a good guess it was a good guess okay What are they? Maybe the Eagles? Oh, yeah, that's right. I feel like this one, I think you have. Okay. Kansas City. Mm-hmm.

Chiefs? Yeah, good job. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. New England? Patriots. Nice.

Okay, wow. Well. Carolina. Mm-hmm. Carolina. Carolina. Carolina hot sauce

is delicious Carolina corn cobs Carolina corn cobs I vote we change the name immediately they're the Carolina Panthers but corn cobs sounds better next time I watch the Carolina Panthers

I'm going to cheer on the corn cobs how did they become the Panthers what does that have to do with Carolina I'd love to tell you but I don't have an answer It just sounds cool. Okay, how about Arizona? I'll give you a hint. It's a bird. So it's not the diamond backs.

That's the baseball team. I think we should have gone MLB. I do watch baseball at my house. My husband loves baseball. Arizona, well, I was going to say chiefs. but that's wrong. You already said that. And you were right the first time.

So I think we should let that one lie. I would say Arizona. A red bird. Oh, it's a red bird. Cardinals? You nailed it. Isn't that a baseball team? It is also a baseball team.

But it's a football team too? It's also a football team. Yes. Okay, I'm going to give you one more. I love this. Cleveland. Browns? Nailed it.

Is that right? Absolutely nailed it. Woo! Look at that. We end on a high note. The last question I have for you, this is something I love to ask all my fellow mom guests. What is the best piece of motherhood advice that you have ever received?

A lot of really good ones. I would say the first one that comes to mind is... What's most important is you love your child. So when you're beating yourself up about whether it's being a working mom or not being there enough or losing your temper, doing something that is just or you feel that you're not good enough, you're the only one that can love your child the way that you do. And you have to make sure that they know that and they do know it. I also just feel like it segues into just being a working mom and feeling like there's this expectation, or I've been asked so many times, like, how do you do it all? And I can't believe that that is projected on us because there is no such thing. There is not one human being that can do everything all at once.

And I try really hard to do everything I can, but I can't do anything. fully. There's no time machine or teleporting machine that I can use to be everywhere all the time for my kids. Not to mention I have more than one kid. So I do everything the best that I can, but I do not do anything fully. And I really just try to remind myself not to put pressure on myself about that. Like, I can't, there's no such thing. Like, stop telling me that I'm supposed to look, you know, like I didn't have a baby seven months after I had a baby or stop telling me that I'm supposed to be there for every single thing with my kids when I started working before I had kids and it's okay to be a working mother. But like, I don't do anything fully. I do

the best I can't. That's so good. I cannot thank you enough for coming on today. It was such a pleasure to talk to you. It's really nice to talk to you. You're the pleasure. I like this.
