All I needed was a small, smaller brain. How are you?

[Unknown Comedian]

I'm great. Thank you for having me.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. When did you get into Austin?

[Unknown Comedian]

We got here two. Almost two years ago. Exactly. It's like it'll be two years in April.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Do you like it?

[Unknown Comedian]

I love it. I had. I always had a weird feeling I would end up here. When I was in LA and I would get. Back when I used to drink, I don't drink anymore. I would get really drunk and frustrated and I'd be like, I'm moving to Austin and I'm starting a band. Like, just hammered.

[Bridget Phetasy]

How do you started the band?

[Unknown Comedian]

No, I. I mean, I still in my twenties then, so I think that pipe dream has left the station. I do feel like I miss my calling as a rock star, but it's a little late for that.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Are you a singer?

[Unknown Comedian]

I was a singer, yeah, man, that's cool.

[Bridget Phetasy]

It must be awesome to be able to sing.

[Unknown Comedian]

It was. I love it so much. And I wrote a lot of stuff. That's like my dirtiest secret, I guess, is that I just write lyrics, but they're just for me because I write for. You know, I wrote for Playboy. I have a column for Spectator now. And it's a lot of public writing and So I just now keep like that stuff for me, it's like mine.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, I wrote a book of poetry one time.

[Unknown Comedian]

It's kind of the same.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I thought that it was gonna be like the next Shakespearean literature piece. And I ended up going to the Venice beach boardwalk. I lived in California and I like reserved a space and I like set out all the books of poetry. It was just one book, but like a bunch of the same copy. And I was like. And I ordered like 500 cop copies because I thought I was gonna sell out. I like spent all the money that I had available on my credit card at the time. And I was like, I'm. This is gonna be a huge hit. Everyone in Venice is gonna want this book of poetry. I sold one copy and it was a petty sale to like a skateboarding kid that was like going by.

[Unknown Comedian]

It's like a white girl version of a mixtape.

[Bridget Phetasy]

It was so sad. And that was the last time I ever really wrote anything.

[Unknown Comedian]

We have a lot more in common than I because I started my company Fetishee, which is the. Was the name of my company. And that's. It was right around the time of social media. So I kind of took that as my last name because I was trying to just. I was sketched out by social media and also just for branding purposes. And then I started a greeting card company. Printed all these greeting cards and all these T shirts and I was like, this is gonna be it. I'm gonna. No business plan. I was 27 years old, no nothing. Just went ball in, put it all on my credit card. Went bankrupt by the like had to, had to declare bankruptcy. But I was on. I would walk up and down the beach. So I printed all this stuff, started my website. This was, it was actually almost 19 years ago to the day. And the first iteration of this and I was like, well, I'm not going to sit here and wait for people to come to me. I'm going to take my, my brand on tour. I'm a one woman brand. So I got in my car with my cousin and we went and drove to Miami and I sold T shirts walking up and down the beach. By the way, I have a lot of respect for anyone who does that after doing it. It's fucking. Can I swear. It's exhausting. It is exhausting. And yeah, I still have all those greeting cards. I still have a lot of those T shirts. I've printed like, like hundreds of. It's so embarrassing.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I still have 499 copies of my.

[Unknown Comedian]

Poetry I want one now. I want one. You have to give me one. I'll buy one from you.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I have a duffel bag. And like, it's in the duffel bag are like 499 books.

[Unknown Comedian]

I don't know if you're old enough to remember the Girls Gone Wild stuff. Do you remember that? Yeah. I was so I printed all of these T shirts. They were like little spaghetti strapped tank tops that just said daddy would be proud. Because all the. And I was like, it's gonna be freaking huge for the spring break girls because everybody was like lifting up their shirts and I had it done. And the Girls Gone Wild font, and they're really cute. And I sold probably like 10.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Damn. I hate it when that happens. Yeah, I lost my. My business venture after that. I was like, okay, I'm not. I'm never gonna be able to sell anything. That was the end of my merch days.

[Unknown Comedian]

I still haven't given up. I'm still gonna make these effing greeting cards. I will not give up.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I've had some people ask me when I tell them that I wrote a book of poetry, and they're like, I want one. And I'm like, you don't want one? They're not that good.

[Unknown Comedian]

Maybe.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I mean, now it's just like nostalgia.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And if I actually sold 499 of them, I'd be really sad that they were all gone.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. But you could keep like 10.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, that's true. I feel like they'd be like, great in the bathroom, you know, if you're just like taking a shit and you have nothing else to do. Read a shitty poem.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, I guess if you, like, don't have your phone for some reason.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, that would never happen. Here are some appetizer questions. So you're married?

[Unknown Comedian]

I am married.

[Bridget Phetasy]

How'd you meet your husband?

[Unknown Comedian]

We met in recovery.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Okay. Which state?

[Unknown Comedian]

We were in California, In Los Angeles.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Can I ask what you were recovering from?

[Unknown Comedian]

I mean, what wasn't would probably be easier.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Really?

[Unknown Comedian]

Everything I've recovered from everything except for coffee. That's my last drug. I'm not giving up.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. We met in 12 step in the rooms and we. I was a. Well, at the time it was really just like alcohol, weed, and like drugs, but not heroin. I gave up heroin when I was like 20. That's good. So I recovered. Yeah, it is good, because now it is my.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I wasn't trying to be super sarcastic as that's such a young age to be addicted to heroin.

[Unknown Comedian]

I know. But you used to be able to do it for a long time. And, like, I've been joking on it on stage. I'm like, I could do drug. You could do drugs for decades and hardly anyone would die. And now with fentanyl, it's like, I'd be down. Yeah. So not. Not. Not as long of a shelf life as a drug addict.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. Now it's like Russian roulette, you know, it's even coke. Yeah. What? You have no idea.

[Unknown Comedian]

No. I joke about this too. Even though it's dark, I'm like, you'll go to a bachelor party and Jim will die, you know?

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. It's sad.

[Unknown Comedian]

It's sad, but it's. This is why we have, you know, this is why Trump is shutting down the border.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. Seriously. So drugs can make a comeback.

[Unknown Comedian]

I was joking to him, like, this should be RFK Junior's, like, primary platform.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

I need to get the fentanyl out of the cocaine and heroin.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. So we can have McDonald's in real Coke.

[Unknown Comedian]

We need to make it pure again. Beef, tallow, fries, and red Skittles out of here. Red Skittles. Get out.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Go. You're gone.

[Unknown Comedian]

Red is the best, though. Yeah. So I got. I kind of told myself I didn't have a problem because I was like, well, it was clearly the heroin that was the problem.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I mean, that is the hardest drug.

[Unknown Comedian]

I guess.

[Bridget Phetasy]

What's harder than heroin?

[Unknown Comedian]

I mean, this is. I guess my husband and I would probably have, like, a drug off. Cause he was more method meth head. So. And I. And I, by standards of junkie, junkie pride, standards, I was not an intravenous drug user. So I was like a pussy heroin addict. And so it's funny to me that even at rock bottom, like, people compete to be the best.

[Bridget Phetasy]

What attracted you to a meth head at the time? I mean, you're like, oh, he's trying to be better.

[Unknown Comedian]

No, he was. And I don't think he was recovering from meth at that time. He's a lot like me. Like, it was like we both had drugs in the younger days and then realized we kind of had to quit everything. So, like, I'm Irish Catholic, and so alcoholism, I didn't know that that was, like a real thing. It was just the way everyone was drinking.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

You know, I moved to California. I was like, oh, you guys all drink like pussies out here on the West Coast. They're like, you have a problem, you have a problem. Yeah. But I. Eventually, I mean, I did every Because I was in recovery so young. I was like, never going back there again. And then I did everything in my power to avoid. I was like, I'm gonna be a yoga instructor. I'm gonna go do, like.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Which is the widest way to give up.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, yeah. I mean, if. Who among us has an adult?

[Bridget Phetasy]

Anytime I meet a yoga instructor, I'm just like, okay.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

What have you been through?

[Unknown Comedian]

A lot.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's like a hardcore sign of some crazy trauma.

[Unknown Comedian]

So true. Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

So you guys both. So did you ever relapse?

[Unknown Comedian]

No. I mean, not in this sobriety.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's awesome.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I feel like that's way more rare.

[Unknown Comedian]

When was it? 11 years in October.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Congratulations.

[Unknown Comedian]

It will. It was. Yes. Thank you.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's awesome.

[Unknown Comedian]

It's good. It's. It's crazy that I haven't had, like, a hangover in that long or smoked weed or anything, because that was. I think weed was my true love.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

Of all of them. All of the drugs.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Wild.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Have you been with your husband ever since you met him in rehab?

[Unknown Comedian]

We weren't in rehab. We were just in the rooms, like, of recovery. So it wasn't like we were. We were in recovery. I say that meaning, like, in 12 step programs, I guess.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I don't know.

[Unknown Comedian]

Rehab is like a place, and 12 step programs just occur at many places. Okay, so we met in one of, like, in a meeting. Like a. Like a 12 step meeting.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Okay, and how long ago was that?

[Unknown Comedian]

That was. Well, the first time we got together, he was pretty new into recovery, and I. And I was. He was. I don't even know if he's like, 90 days. So that's a big no. No. In 12 step, it's like. I can imagine it usually goes the other way where the man is the predator, but in this instance, it was me. And we kind of just. It was like fire right away. We just hit it off, and I was worried that it would end badly, as these things normally do when someone's new. I took a year of, like, no dating, almost a year when I got sober. And so I wanted him to have that same time to, like, be with himself and be uncomfortable. And you can kind of make another person your higher power if you get together and in early sobriety. So we were together like, five months and then broke up. And then we got back together, like, 15 months later. We were. I was like, let's get coffee. I wanted to start going back to the meeting that I had kind of abandoned so that he could have it. And we got coffee and he had gotten. He like, put himself through a montage in this time, by the way. Went back to school, started working out, grew a beer. I was like, what the. It was truly like, I transform. I'm like, you did need that time. It was a transformation. And he was still the person I fell in love with. And then we were just back together. And that was in 2019. 20 or 2018. We just celebrated our four year anniversary and five years being back together, so. Or maybe longer than that. So we ended up getting married and. And then Covid hit. So right after we got back together. Shortly thereafter, we were pretty much locked down together. And it was a good way to see if that was like, can we do this? And then he proposed in like the winter of 2019. And then we got married in November of 2020.

[Bridget Phetasy]

We're going to get into some main course questions now. How did he propose?

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, it was very. I was like, I do not want anything. I want it to be if you ever propose, I. I don't want it to be anything fancy. I want it to be when we're doing something that we do every day and we love doing. And he gets me coffee every morning.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Takes you back to the 12 step program. Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

Gets out and gets down on one knee. Yeah. He makes me coffee every morning and brings it to me. So he, like, I rolled over and he had a ring and coffee and.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Wow.

[Unknown Comedian]

It was very much like, that's our time together. Well, it was before I had a child and that was our time together. And so it was very romantic to me. It was like. Yeah, ours.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Well, he did it in a way that he knew was really for you. Yeah, that's cool.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, it was nice and very sweet.

[Bridget Phetasy]

So how did you guys start dating? Where did you. What would you guys do for fun on dates?

[Unknown Comedian]

I mean, we were locked down. We were dating a lot.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Oh, that's true. Because most of it was Covid, so.

[Unknown Comedian]

A lot of it was. So we would go on walks. When it wasn't Covid, we went out to dinner in Malibu. That was kind of our first real date back. And then we would. I don't know, we'd. I'm. It's. I'm tough because we. I'm always working. So when we would go on dates, I felt like it was a lot of just like going on walks, going to the beach, going to a 12 step meeting, even super hot. And yeah, going out to dinner. We went to some, like, really nice dinners. I would love food. I'm like a.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Like Same.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, good food and foodie stuff. We would go to, I don't know, and then we were all locked down.

Even if I push him to try and therapize me, he's like, we're not doing this, Bridget. You know, like, I'm not gonna, I'll be like, why do you think I do?

[Bridget Phetasy]

You know, I would be doing the same thing. It's like if I was with a chiropractor, I'd be like, can I get an adjustment like every day? Yeah, I would always Try to take advantage of what my husband did. I try. My husband, my boyfri owns a barbecue restaurant. So I would be eating usually as barbecue every day, but I don't really like barbecue.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. If you want some barbecue. Lmk.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. So that's. He's good about that because that could be annoying.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, that's great. That's why I was like, whoa. So what's your dating history like?

[Unknown Comedian]

I mean, do you have like seven hours? It's not great.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Bad dates.

[Unknown Comedian]

Not bad dates. I was. I was just a wild slut, you know, I really was. I don't know. There's no real way to couch that.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Were you. What kind. So when you were making music, what kind of music was it?

[Unknown Comedian]

I was not really making music. I was just always singing. I was. I was trying to be a writer and then got dared to do stand up comedy and then started doing that. And I always wanted to be like, sell a show. So I. I've written like lots of scripts and, and stuff like that. And then I stumbled into the culture wars and now I'm fucked. Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I feel like music, like the kind of music that you like is sort of a reflection on the kinds of people that you date. Right. Like, if you really like country music, you're probably looking for like kind of a cowboy.

[Unknown Comedian]

Right?

[Bridget Phetasy]

If you like rock music, you're probably looking for like a metal head.

[Unknown Comedian]

God, we were so lied to.

[Bridget Phetasy]

What kind of music were you into?

[Unknown Comedian]

I was just thinking, when I said that I was thinking about Reality Bites, that movie.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I haven't seen it.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, see, this is the age. This is the age gap coming. It's. It was a movie we all. It was like very much the Gen X movie of our time. And it was with Winona Ryder and, oh my gosh, what's his name? Who's the guy?

[Bridget Phetasy]

Ethan Hawke.

[Unknown Comedian]

Ethan Hawke. Thank you. Ethan Hawke was this rock star and Ben Stiller was in it. And Ben Stiller was like the good, stable guy. And Winona looked gorgeous. They were like 25 or 26 and they're like, life is over. And she has, she. I don't want to spoil it for people who haven't seen it, but it did give us this. We recently watched it. And that was another thing my husband and I would do is go to see like the movies at the Hollywood Cemetery in reality. And they had Reality Bites as one. And I hadn't seen it in a long time. And you could hear everybody in the audience groaning when they're like, we're 25. Life is over. Like, all of our dreams. It's too late. You're like. You're so young still. But he was like this very emotionally unavailable, messed up rock star. And in the end, he kind of comes around and it's like, they never come back. Like, they're not. Why did we. Why did they tell us this? Guys never come back. And I had this. I just dated all of those. Those. That was my thing. I loved emotionally and actually unavailable men.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Actually unavailable.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, it was. Yeah, it was not great. I. And I. And my therapist was like, well, it's because you're actually unavailable. Like, I'm. I'm the one who. She really had me look at it. It's not just that you have, like, are the girl with daddy issues who. Who doesn't have self esteem. Which was true. But also I was so busy and focused on trying to do my own thing that there was a part of me that was not available in a. In the way you need to be in a, like, healthy, committed relationship.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. That's usually step one of therapy. Is that all therapists do. It's like their move where they're like, tell me what's going on. And then you're like, all of these people are fucked up. And then they're like. And then they just all of a sudden just turn the finger right back at you. And I'm like, I quit.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I don't want to deal with this anymore.

[Unknown Comedian]

Thank you.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I understand. What's wrong. Not open to fixing myself.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, exactly. Oh, I'm the problem.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Cool.

[Unknown Comedian]

That was what happened getting sober too. I thought it was drugs and alcohol, and then I took that away and I was like, oh, I'm fucking crazy. Like, this is so unfair. I thought it was the drugs and alcohol, but it's actually me. That was disappointing. So, yeah, I was. I was very. I was like a commitment phobe. Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I always dated the fun guy.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, I dated a lot of fun guys.

[Bridget Phetasy]

If you were fun. Like, the more fun you are, the more I was, like, into you.

[Unknown Comedian]

I dated a lot of, like, alpha male.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

Kind of that type.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

And I dated. I mean, yeah. Like Australians, rock stars, anyone who is. Who is kind of, like, unavailable and dysfunctional.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. The older I get though, the more the fun turns into doing absolutely nothing. Like, on Saturday and Sunday, I'm Just off limits. Because I sit down on my couch and I don't move.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, well, you're also pregnant, so enjoy that until you have a child and you have no choice.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

And then you're. It will be nice for a while. And then they get mobile and you're like, I never will sit still again.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I am ready for that, though. I mean, my. My boyfriend was asking me what I was looking forward to the most about having a kid just yesterday, and I was like, the fact that I'm gonna have a little, tiny, miniature version of you that doesn't talk shit to me yet. That's what he said. Yeah. He's like, just wait until he, like, learns to talk and I can teach him how to trip his mom.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And I'm like, great.

[Unknown Comedian]

My husband sent me a meme just the other day. I was like, the great thing about. The thing about being a girl, dad, is you have a tiny version of your wife who's like. Who's also, like, bossing you around and talking shit to you all before 8am or something like that.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. And then you come into play and then there's two of you.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, she's. She's feisty. Just yesterday, they had this inter. I like to listen to. He's like, kind of the primary care provider at the moment. We switch back and forth. But it's fun for me to listen to him dealing with her because she's very verbal. For two and nine months, she grew up in my belly listening to me podcast. And I don't know, she's just. She's very articulate. It's, like, unsettling. She shouldn't be this. So he said last night, this stubborn defiance is going to suit you later on in life, but today is not that day. And she said, today is that day. I was like, what the fuck? Like, you understood that and understood it was. I was dying laughing. I'm like, good luck, honey. Good luck with that one. He's like, damn it. This child.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's amazing. What is. Are you guys into astrology?

[Unknown Comedian]

Uh, I'm. I am, but he's not.

[Bridget Phetasy]

You were gonna be a yoga teacher.

[Unknown Comedian]

I am, but he's not. He's. He's very. He laughs at me. He's. My husband is extremely skeptical of all things.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Well, he's a. He's a therapist.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, he's very, like. He's just a skeptic, too. And he's like, brilliant. So he doesn't have to rely on these dumb things that I have to rely on. To make sense of the world.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. It's crazy that he was also in drugs and then, like, came off of it and then, like, became a doctor.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, well, ish. Ish, yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Tells people how to fix their relationships.

[Unknown Comedian]

I mean, doctors might have some issue with that.

[Bridget Phetasy]

You know, if you're gonna be a drug addict and a doctor, at least you can prescribe yourself some medicines. I mean, I know that's illegal. I'm just saying that's what I would do. Yeah. Be like, Adderall. Seems like an adequate answer.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. I don't know. He's. He's. He's funny. Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I'm going to ask you some of these questions. I have appetizer questions. I have main course questions. I've already asked you my dessert question. I wanted to know how he proposed, but I jumped the gun because that's fine.

[Unknown Comedian]

It made sense in the conversation.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I wanted to know. I was like, I don't want to wait eight more minutes. My impatience is. Just gets stronger and stronger. Okay, let's see. Try not to lose my breath over here. I have zero lung capacity.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, it's the worst. Have you ever seen those videos of how the. The organs all get pushed up?

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

I was like, honey, do you want to see? He's like, do not show me that. I was like, he's like, I don't want to see any of this shit.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Also, my boobs just get pushed up. They're like. They're just. It's not cute.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

There's, like, no cuteness in them anymore.

[Unknown Comedian]

Well, there's a phase in pregnancy where you're cute pregnant, and then you just get.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And then you get to this part where you get this, like, underbelly thing going on.

[Unknown Comedian]

Isn't the weirdest part of pregnancy when you suddenly can't see your vagina? One day? Yeah, that fucked me up so much. I remember the day so well. I, like, looked down in the shower, and I was like, you can't.

[Bridget Phetasy]

You can't see it. I have a hand mirror, and so anytime I shave, I still come out, and it just looks like a Chinese crusted. It's just, like. Just, like, four pieces of, like, straggly hair just, like, somewhere on there. And I try so hard to fit. I'm sorry for the visual, but it's so bad. It's the worst. Yeah. I can't bend over and, like, shave my legs, and so I have, like, stray hair. Dude, it's gnarly.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yep.

[Bridget Phetasy]

It's really, really gnarly.

[Unknown Comedian]

It's Another thing completely.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. I used to be a whole different person.

[Unknown Comedian]

And you're never gonna be the same.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Thank you.

[Unknown Comedian]

No, I mean.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I was tan.

[Unknown Comedian]

I know, I know, I know.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I had a waistline.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, girl, it was there. Hey, I. At least you're not going right from pregnancy to menopause. The other day, I was Dr. Driving down to do a set, being like, what am I doing with my life? I'm too old to be doing this. And then I see the, like, Austin marathon banner.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Fuck that.

[Unknown Comedian]

And I. For the first time in my whole life, I was like, I should do a marathon. And I was like, oh, my God, I just hit menopause. Like, in this moment, I think I just. When my doctor's like, when did you first hit me? Feel like you had a hot flash. And I'll be like, no, I thought about doing a marathon for real. Like, I feel like that's the only time I see women who are like, let's do marathons. You're like, oh, you're perimenopausal, you fuck. Even when I got sober, I didn't consider it. Which is often a thing that people do when they get sober is like, marathons.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, they, like, go to the other extreme. They go from, like, being complete degenerates to, like, wanting to believe in God and run 5 mile or 15 miles. Marathons are usually, like, insane.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. No, I don't. Thinking about even just running right now makes me want to, like, vomit. I'm just like, yeah, but shaving and running is.

[Unknown Comedian]

Long story short. Just be glad you're not going from pregnant. Like, I was a real true, true geriatric. You're like a geriatric light.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I mean, I'm on the close end. No, I'm 37, girl, 43.

[Unknown Comedian]

When I had my child.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's pretty good. That gives me that.

[Unknown Comedian]

But even my doctor was like, oh, I have 45 and 46 year olds. And people ask me, in seriousness, if I'm gonna have more, and I am 46 years old now.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Are you gonna have more?

[Unknown Comedian]

No. If it had happened naturally, maybe by now, but no. Yeah, that is. That's ridiculous. I'm sorry.

[Bridget Phetasy]

There's a lady that goes to my gym that's in her, like, mid-40s, and she just did IVF.

[Unknown Comedian]

This shit's crazy, man.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I was like, dang.

[Unknown Comedian]

Having kids is a young person's game. It's like, yeah, it is exhausting. My husband and I look at each other, we're like, wow, we. And I will say you don't get the benefit of having your parents to be young and sprightly.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

To help you out with the kids. Like, people will be like, oh, his parents moved there. My husband's parents moved here. And they're like, are they helping? I'm like, they're also very elderly. Like, we're all.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I'm glad that I'm hitting the time where fentanyl is leaving cocaine.

[Unknown Comedian]

Hopefully it'll be. Imagine our kids are partying together.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. Be the worst, dude. Yeah. I try not to think too much into how I'm gonna deal with the energy level, because I. My energy level. You'll be fine.

[Unknown Comedian]

Right now, they are. They come back.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's good to know.

[Unknown Comedian]

They. Mine came back.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I was like, very positive reinforcement.

[Unknown Comedian]

I'm never gonna be. I'm never gonna have energy again. But you are building a literal human.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And that's why I feel like I'm just sucked dry.

[Unknown Comedian]

And breastfeeding is exhausting. If you do that. I. She stopped breastfeeding at two and a half. My child.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Why do I come here?

[Unknown Comedian]

Because I will be here for you. I've got you. No, but it's all good. Like, you'll. Here's the thing. When there's nothing like it, you can't know what you don't know. Like, if you had asked me if I had wanted kids, I would have said, probably not. And now I wish I had had them younger so I could have five. Like, there it is something. Your heart bursts open in a way that you can only experience. You can understand it. Experience it. Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I do wish that I would have started a little younger, though.

[Unknown Comedian]

But I didn't want just kids. I wanted, like, a family, a husband. I wanted a whole.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, same.

[Unknown Comedian]

So it is like we are where we are for a reason. Yeah. It is what it is. But I would. Yeah, I would. I would strongly encourage people who. There's just a whole, like, antinatalist vibe in the world where it's like, I don't want kids like that. I'm like, you guys don't know. It's a lot of work. Yes. It's exhausting. Yes. It is so worth every part of it.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. Well, luckily, Nayana wants to be a babysitter, so I've never heard anyone back there be so quiet.

[Unknown Comedian]

It was dead silent.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That was the quietest. I could feel my own thought.

[Unknown Comedian]

They left.

[Bridget Phetasy]

No, she's back there.

[Unknown Comedian]

She just didn't want.

[Bridget Phetasy]

She got you. I got you. One of our friends has two little girls. They're like 10 and 12, and all they want to do is babysit. And I think that's really cute. It's never gonna happen, but.

[Unknown Comedian]

Why not?

[Bridget Phetasy]

Well, it might, but did you have babysitters? Would I.

[Unknown Comedian]

Did you when you were growing up?

[Bridget Phetasy]

Oh, no. That cost money.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, okay.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I did not grow up with like, any money in my parents wallets whatsoever.

[Unknown Comedian]

Got it.

[Bridget Phetasy]

No, I went to daycare. I went to this place called. Oh, my gosh. Why am I blanking on the name? It was like hell. It was like hell in a hand basket.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, wow.

[Bridget Phetasy]

To me, it was the worst. It was. It was this daycare place and God, as soon as we finish this podcast, it's gonna hit me. I want to shout them out because it was seriously traumatizing.

[Unknown Comedian]

Are you from here?

[Bridget Phetasy]

I'm from Texas. I grew up in Mesquite.

[Unknown Comedian]

Okay.

[Bridget Phetasy]

But I went to this. I went to this little daycare and they were like so negligent there. They just like, let you do anything. Yeah, they. They me up with colors. So I thought every single color was called yellow.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, gosh.

[Bridget Phetasy]

So whenever I.

[Unknown Comedian]

Why did they do that?

[Bridget Phetasy]

I don't know. I went to draw something, and I guess a teacher had asked me what color I want, and so they had like a thing of colors, and I would. And I picked yellow. And so whenever I pointed at the color, they're like, that's yellow. And I was like, yellow. So then I colored a picture in yellow, and that was the only fucking word I learned at the daycare. So then every day I'd go back and I would. They'd be like, what do you want to do? And I'm like, yellow. Cause I thought that was the color. The word for colors.

[Unknown Comedian]

Right, right.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And I. So every. So every single pict for me as a child is yellow. And my mom was like, that must be her favorite color. She loves the color yellow. So then for Christmas, what did I get? Everything was yellow.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, God.

[Bridget Phetasy]

So my whole life growing up is yellow. And believe it or not, my favorite color today is yellow. But that was like one thing with this place and then. And then another thing that they did.

[Unknown Comedian]

Is so they weren't wrong.

[Bridget Phetasy]

No, I mean, they, like, made me like, yellow. I was like, brainwashed as a child. And then some other little kid would bite me. And so I would go home with this bruise on my arm and like, different bruises on my arm. My mom's like, what's happening? And I'm like, this girl's biting me. And she's like, what do you do when that girl bites you. And I'm like, I don't know. I just let her take a chunk out of me. And she's like, you bite back.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, geez. Your mom said that?

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, wow.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Go, mom. So then the next time this little bit me, I grabbed her face and I bit her on the cheek and I drew blood like a vampire. Very proud of myself for that one. That was a strong first move, that is. I get sent to the principal's office. They call my mom. She has to leave work. She comes in, she's like, what's up? They're like, your daughter just bit this little girl on the face. And she's like, did she bite her first? And I was like, yes. And my mom gave me a high five and was like, good job. And then I got kicked out of this daycare.

[Unknown Comedian]

Oh, no.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And I had to go to, like, another daycare. But that was like. Like. Anyway, that's my babysitting story. That's like, this is how babysitting went for me.

[Unknown Comedian]

Okay.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

So no babysitters.

[Bridget Phetasy]

No babysitters.

[Unknown Comedian]

You're a feral child.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I didn't even get breastfed. I learned this today. I asked my mom how long she breastfed. Six weeks.

[Unknown Comedian]

That's pretty normal. If you have to go back to work.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's. Yeah. I was like, you didn't pump or.

[Unknown Comedian]

Like, give me, like, pain in the eye? Breastfed until she was two and a half. Whoa. Like, I didn't think I'd ever be one of those people, but I didn't. I thought that it was. All I ever heard about was how hard it was. So I was surprised that she took right to it. It was very easy. The nurses were like, your nipples, they were just so, like.

[Bridget Phetasy]

You're like a master producer, though.

[Unknown Comedian]

And then she just loved it. And it was like train spotting. When I had to wean her, I just was like, we've gotta. I don't want her to be like, please.

[Bridget Phetasy]

It's crazy.

[Unknown Comedian]

She would literally walk up to me and be like, how are those boobies? Like, okay, we need to. Like, we need to wean you. How are those boobies doing?

[Bridget Phetasy]

How did you produce milk for so long?

[Unknown Comedian]

I don't know. I don't know. I drank a lot of oat milk. I don't know if that works. They said it does. Okay.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Oat milk.

[Unknown Comedian]

But, yeah, I don't know. I just kept on producing it. I thought I would dry out. I'm old. I thought I would dry out. I thought she would get over it. You know, you hear a lot of stories about just never. It never working, not being able to latch. Like, I just. A lot of family members had issues, and we just kept on.

[Bridget Phetasy]

You're the money maker.

[Unknown Comedian]

Kept on going, that's wild.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I'll be. I'll do it for six months.

[Unknown Comedian]

Okay.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And then I'm cooked.

[Unknown Comedian]

You're cooked.

[Bridget Phetasy]

And then I'm like. And then I want to get back on my. My normal, everyday life shit.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, I heard.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I can't get Botox until I'm done breastfeeding.

[Unknown Comedian]

Now, here's the thing. I did not do it, but when I went, they were all like, oh, no, it's fine. I was like, what? They're like, I don't think it is, by the way.

[Bridget Phetasy]

It's not okay.

[Unknown Comedian]

But they're like, no, it just. They're like, all my friends got Botox while they were breastfeeding. I'm like, what?

[Bridget Phetasy]

There's, like, a lot of stuff that you can't do. It's like you can't even take a.

[Unknown Comedian]

Fucking aspirin, you guys. Yeah, Botox. They're like, no, it's not big enough to pass through the barrier to, like.

[Bridget Phetasy]

It literally goes into your bloodstream. I have a.

[Unknown Comedian]

These people are fucking crazy. If you're wondering where autism came from, it's from women taking Botox while they're breastfeeding.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's wild. They even say, like, if you drink alcohol, you have to, like, pump and dump. And there's a girl that I know that's a pediatric nurse, and she was breastfeeding over Christmas. She was, like, hanging out with us and drinking a glass of wine at the same time. And I'm like, what? I don't think.

[Unknown Comedian]

Well, yeah, I don't know that it would be that direct, but was it.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Did she actually time this perfectly?

[Unknown Comedian]

Probably. Women get good at this stuff.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

She might be an alcoholic.

[Bridget Phetasy]

She also might be, like, a genius. I'm like, wow. I never thought about it that way. Because if you're breastfeeding and drinking, by the time it hits your pillows or.

[Unknown Comedian]

Something like that, then you're done. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, yeah. Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

It's like, wow.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

That's wild.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. So there's a lot of video where I'm like, who? The breastfeeding days. It's tough, but it's worth it. You'll do anything for your kid.

[Bridget Phetasy]

I mean, I know. Two and a half years, though. That's a really long time.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. Yeah, tell me about it.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

How those Boobies do know she got boobas. How are those boobas doing?

[Bridget Phetasy]

My God. I. I don't know how I do with a little boy asking me that and then like letting him suck on my tits.

[Unknown Comedian]

That's weird. Once they start talking, I'm like, this is weird. This is just too weird. But I guess it's good for them, so.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, it is good for them.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Because I asked my mom what she did after six weeks and she's like, I don't really remember, but I think. I think I just gave you that or baby food like before I was. I know.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, it's.

[Bridget Phetasy]

You're not supposed to have food at that at six weeks.

[Unknown Comedian]

Not six weeks old. No. She probably did formula and just doesn't remember. You don't remember anything. You don't. You just don't. It's. So you'll have other kids because if you remembered everything, you'd be like, no way. You just. It's like weird. You'll look at it when you're in it. You're like, oh, this seven month moment is. And then you see other people with their kids and you're like, how old are they? When do they get their teeth again? When do they start eating? Like, that's crazy. You won't remember it. Even though you went through it. It's wild.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Well, because you're sleep deprived, right? So it kind of just goes by you like a blur A little bit.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah. Yeah. And you're just. You're just in it. You're just. They change so fast in that first year. It's crazy. They just as they're like coming online, you're like, this is like watching AI become sentient. It's wild.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. That's pretty nuts, dude. My mom gave me all kinds of little horror stories. She's like, one time you also fell off the changing table. And I'm like, how did I survive?

[Unknown Comedian]

How did. I don't know. I mean, we have so much more. My sister, actually, and I'm the oldest of five and my sister, we're all like. We're seven years apart, me and the youngest. So we're all very close and also just close in real life. And my sister in the group family chat was like, does anyone want this? And it was this bassinet we all had and all. My other sister was like, that would be considered like a death trap now. Like, we all had this, but she's like, this would be considered. It has like, we all had like bumpers and pillows. And now it's Just like child swaddled in the middle of a crib.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Nothing.

[Unknown Comedian]

Yeah, we were all in our bellies, like.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. I don't know how I survived it. I really don't. I mean, if my mom would have had the resources that we have today, I would have turned out so much better.

[Unknown Comedian]

Maybe I had to have.

[Bridget Phetasy]

There has to be something better that would have turned. My dad didn't even take a day off of work.

[Unknown Comedian]

There's been a lot of studies that. Well. Cause if you were poor, then probably there's a lot of studies that like, the outcomes for kids are often not the same, but similar for very wealthy and very poor because the very wealthy outsource a lot of the childcare and the very poor kind of have to. And so it's like middle class kids who have their parents that do tend to like, do the best. No, they tend to do. No, it's like the rich ones who are raised by nannies and all other people that are often not. They kind of go off the rails sometimes.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Well, I have the means to outsource, but I don't think I want to.

[Unknown Comedian]

No. I mean, we.

[Bridget Phetasy]

So even if I could.

[Unknown Comedian]

People told us to do all kinds of crazy stuff like get a night nurse and like.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah.

[Unknown Comedian]

And I was like, I don't. I understand why and how you would. If you have the means and why you would do it. But my sisters who are very middle class were like, don't do that. They're like those moments that you have at 3am with the baby when you're exhausted and it's just like, you and that child are priceless. And you will remember those and. Yeah, I do. Those are the. Like, I'm so glad I took their advice.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah. Where can people find you?

[Unknown Comedian]

They can go to. Where can they find me? Fedase switch. I was like, is it over? They can go to fetishee.com they can go to YouTube. Bridget. Fetishy. That's where. Where I am.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Are you on Instagram or any social.

[Unknown Comedian]

Same thing. Bridget Fantasy X. But I'm on Instagram as well.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Okay. Buy her merch too. You gotta put these shirts in these green bags.

[Unknown Comedian]

Why not?

[Unknown Comedian]

I'm so excited for you.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Thank you. I appreciate that. I'll have you back whenever after this baby comes out. My audience will be so excited.

[Unknown Comedian]

I mean, I do want you to get my number and call me anytime at any.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Totally. This has been like, mom, mom, mom chat. Mom chats. And I'm pretty sure my audience is 99% male, so they're probably all just like, God, fucking give birth and shut the fuck up.

[Unknown Comedian]

No. Might be time to. Might. Might be time to pivot to getting the ladies.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Yeah, could be a good time.

[Unknown Comedian]

You know, we'll see.

[Bridget Phetasy]

We'll take a vote. Thank you guys for tuning in to another episode. I'm due any day now, so we'll see you next time.

[Unknown Comedian]

I love that you think it's gonna get better when you have a baby.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Oh, no, I'm having hot flashes.

[Unknown Comedian]

Like, just turn it into mom chat and get. We're pivoting.

[Bridget Phetasy]

We're pivoting and we're pivoting. See you guys later.

[Unknown Comedian]

Thank you.

[Bridget Phetasy]

Bye. Bye. Are you really drinking a glass of milk with dinner? You told your mom about me? Just say, you ready? Delete my number. First date, your parents are your roommate.

[Unknown Comedian]

First date.
