Welcome to the Handsome Pod.
May Martin
This is going well.
Fortune Feimster
Yes, it is. I had an app for all spritz.
May Martin
Oh, are you day drunk?
Fortune Feimster
No, I just had one.
May Martin
Are you, Dave? Buzzed?
Fortune Feimster
Not even buzzed. But I just think when you have an afternoon with one, aperol spread says pretty exciting.
May Martin
I don't know what that is. And. And I've really.
Fortune Feimster
Have you heard of them?
May Martin
I think from you the other day. Did you mention it yesterday?
Fortune Feimster
Probably.
May Martin
Okay. Yeah. But I have to say, even though I don't drink.
Fortune Feimster
Huh?
May Martin
When I did, my favorite was day drinking.
Tig Notaro
Oh yeah, drinking.
May Martin
I love having a secret like that. Like nobody knows.
Fortune Feimster
You're not even keeping it a secret. I had one.
May Martin
I'm telling you. I Like, to keep it a secret. Like, I liked to have, like, a couple of beers, and then, like, I remember one Valentine's Day, Stephanie and I went to this bar by the beach, and we had just a couple of beers, and then we just walked around with a little daytime buzz. And it's just like, your little secret. And. And that. I don't. I love that feeling. Like, we're not trashed.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
Just like, day buzzed and wandering around.
Fortune Feimster
Sure. 2.
May Martin
2:30 in the afternoon.
Tig Notaro
It's a very vacation feeling. And then you go. You take a nap, and then you go. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Fortune Feimster
So an aperol spritz is very popular in Europe.
May Martin
Oh, okay. Fancy pantsy.
Fortune Feimster
And when it gets hot, it's very refreshing.
May Martin
Okay.
Fortune Feimster
It is a little bit of champagne, and it's a little bit of aperol. It's a. Which is like a liqueur, a little bit of soda water, and a slice of orange. And it is a delicious refreshing. You put it on a lot of a ton of ice, which you know, I love.
May Martin
Ton ruins the vibe.
Tig Notaro
I know. You put it. It's this delicate champagne.
May Martin
And I. And I say orange differently than you.
Fortune Feimster
Orange. You say orange.
May Martin
Orange.
Fortune Feimster
Orange. Orange.
Tig Notaro
And what do you say?
Fortune Feimster
Orange.
May Martin
I say orange.
Fortune Feimster
What do you say?
Tig Notaro
Orange.
May Martin
Of course you do.
Tig Notaro
I say orange. Orange.
Fortune Feimster
Orange, yeah. Say orange.
Tig Notaro
Is that one of those words that you're. You're not able to rhyme with? Is that. Orange is one of them, right?
Fortune Feimster
Sounds like it.
May Martin
Yeah. But I feel like Eminem rhymed with orange. Can you look it up?
Tig Notaro
Thomas, to make point?
May Martin
He was like, yeah, yeah. I feel like he was like, that's.
Tig Notaro
He was like, wrong. You can rhyme with smoring.
Fortune Feimster
In the same situation, I also had a. A brown sugar ice latte and a strawberry matcha.
May Martin
What do you mean in the same situation?
Tig Notaro
You mean, like today?
Fortune Feimster
Brunch?
May Martin
Oh, yeah, yeah. So you do seem a little buzzed.
Fortune Feimster
I think it's more the caffeine than it is.
May Martin
Okay.
Tig Notaro
Oh, brown sugar sounds good.
Fortune Feimster
Because it was outside and it was very hot, and I made the mistake of wearing knit pants.
Tig Notaro
I thought you were gonna say nip something. Nip tasks.
Fortune Feimster
K N, I T. You know, fortune's
May Martin
always bragging about having nips.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
And my nips were nipping, and I had major swamp. Ass.
May Martin
Swamp.
Tig Notaro
So far, you're on fire. This episode, girl, we've had a swamp.
May Martin
That's such a good song. But speaking of good songs, what did you find? Thomas?
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Do you want to hear Eminem talking about it?
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Sweaty with spaghetti. And I love that.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. I put my orange 4 inch door hinge in storage.
Fortune Feimster
There you go.
May Martin
Porridge with George. Storage. Oh, my gosh.
Fortune Feimster
That's right.
May Martin
That's why he's the master. Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Twist them up a little bit.
Tig Notaro
Four inch. I would. Yeah. I wouldn't have thought four ridge door inch. Yeah.
May Martin
I mean, but that's good. That is like a little window into genius right there.
Tig Notaro
God, I wish I could rhyme better.
May Martin
Well, you know what I. What it made me think is we need to come up with a brand new word that rhymes with or. Fortune is day drunk and we need to just come to terms. She has her face fluffer. What is it?
Fortune Feimster
My de Puffer. Oh, my.
Tig Notaro
I know. I was just electrified by the idea of a. A word challenge. And. And like. And then. And then fortune starts to puff in her.
May Martin
Can we block Fortune's video?
Fortune Feimster
No. Continue talking. I'm just depuffing.
Tig Notaro
I just bought one for my mom. And again, this is not an ad. We're not sponsored by depuffer. But she loves it.
May Martin
Oh, I thought it was an ad for your mother.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, this is not an ad for my mom.
Fortune Feimster
I spent Mother's Day with my mom.
Tig Notaro
Good.
Fortune Feimster
As you should have.
Tig Notaro
Wait, isn't it still coming up?
Fortune Feimster
This is coming up of this recording. I love that you.
Tig Notaro
You volunteered it. So we're gonna be like. Well, how was it?
Fortune Feimster
What happened? I don't know yet.
May Martin
I bet it went well.
Fortune Feimster
I bet it went well. Yeah.
May Martin
But it was a beautiful time.
Tig Notaro
Oh, I. Nothing. I'm here. I'm in my little office and I. Last time we were together, I had forgotten the thing I wanted to show you guys that a fan gave me. Yeah, I just. I hope you're as delighted by these as I am, but I'll just one by one reveal, so.
Fortune Feimster
Okay.
Tig Notaro
And I don't know who made these. I'm so sorry. But someone really smart. Okay. This is me as a bird. Okay?
Fortune Feimster
So this is so great, so good.
Tig Notaro
Okay.
Fortune Feimster
This puffy chess.
Tig Notaro
This is Tig as a bird. And Tig has a little bottle with it says dike dust.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, like the minus six hair looks very Elvis.
Tig Notaro
These are us as birds that a fan has made. Birds and suits. And then I've saved the best to last.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, no. I'm. I'm so scared.
Tig Notaro
I just know. I love.
Fortune Feimster
What's this bird gonna be? Oh, no,
Tig Notaro
I love.
Fortune Feimster
I knew it was gonna be something insane.
May Martin
That is unbelievable.
Tig Notaro
Is this not you in as a 100?
May Martin
You're gonna say in A nutshell, but in an eggshell.
Fortune Feimster
Look at that wild hair.
Tig Notaro
It's so good.
Fortune Feimster
So blonde. I'm so blonde. Look at that.
May Martin
That is really inspired and great. And why in birds, is there a connection? I'm forgetting?
Tig Notaro
No, I don't think there's a bird. Maybe this person makes.
Fortune Feimster
This person maybe specializes in birds.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Oh, okay.
Fortune Feimster
We're birds. Handsome birds.
Tig Notaro
This hair is like Shirley Temples. Like, it's like a little.
Fortune Feimster
The curls are curling.
May Martin
Are those snuggly? Those little.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. You're gonna sleep with them?
Tig Notaro
Well, I'll sleep with them for sure. Obviously, I have been all three of them. The. The wings are very soft, but. No, the bodies are tight and hard.
May Martin
Wings.
Fortune Feimster
I ran into somebody that was like. I heard the podcast y' all did about not, like, where you said you didn't like caricatures that are drawn of you, and. And then gave me one, and I was like, this is a lot better.
Tig Notaro
So they were being like, look, they can be good.
Fortune Feimster
I got. I have one of you that you're gonna like. And it was. I looked insane.
May Martin
Well, and that person just found out.
Fortune Feimster
But listen, they're good at caricatures. I just don't look good as a caricature. I look crazy.
May Martin
Okay. But as a bird.
Fortune Feimster
As a bird, I'm gorgeous.
May Martin
Also crazy. Oh,
Tig Notaro
but look at all this stuff I got to go through.
Fortune Feimster
Like, those are your gifts.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
You are bringing this on myself. Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
By drawing attention and, like, sorting and organizing. And when you.
Fortune Feimster
When you ask, when you, like, talk about it, it makes people want to give you. You're gonna get things. Yeah.
May Martin
You're gonna get so much more. Is that what you want?
Tig Notaro
I think secretly, yeah. Because then I can. Because then I can also complain about what am I gonna do with all this stuff and that there's a joy in complaining. But I. I do love it. Like, and I only have four cities left on the tour, so.
Fortune Feimster
Oh. So you never know.
May Martin
Wow. Are you feeling somewhat sad, or are you, like, I can't wrap up quick enough?
Tig Notaro
Like, both. I'm. I'm really gonna miss it, and I. You know, I got my tattoo to commemorate it, and I feel lucky and had. Like, it's been like. Like, it's actually changed me. Like, it's. I've learned a lot, but I've been
Fortune Feimster
change for the better.
Tig Notaro
I didn't say for the better.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, it changed you. It hardened you.
Tig Notaro
No, it did change me for the better. It's been like. Like, there's been a real emotional depth to it. I really loved it. But, yeah, I'm ready for it to end.
May Martin
What is. What is the biggest change that you've.
Tig Notaro
Well, the tattoo is permanent, and I didn't have that before.
Fortune Feimster
Wait, can you remind me what the tattoo is?
May Martin
Thank you for asking.
Tig Notaro
Maybe I never showed you.
Fortune Feimster
I don't know if you did.
May Martin
I feel like you were showing. Were you showing our guests at the live show?
Tig Notaro
It's the tour bus.
May Martin
Hulu.
Fortune Feimster
It's this.
Tig Notaro
It's a little tour bus.
May Martin
Oh, okay. Yeah, that sounds familiar.
Fortune Feimster
Which, yeah, I think you said it, but I. Now that seems familiar. But we never saw it.
Tig Notaro
As you know, I clogged the tour bus toilet twice.
Fortune Feimster
We're just going to assume that tattoo stinks.
Tig Notaro
Scratch and sniff. Stinky bus Tattoo is rancid.
Fortune Feimster
Your nickname on the tour is stinky bus.
Tig Notaro
Oh, my God.
May Martin
And takes as long as I'm little boat.
Fortune Feimster
Little, little boat. I saw Britney Snow after our live show, and she said she was rocking her little cowboy hat around town.
Tig Notaro
No way.
May Martin
Where did you see her?
Fortune Feimster
At the brunch today.
May Martin
Oh, okay.
Tig Notaro
Oh, my God, Please let there be a paparazzi picture of her wearing that hat.
Fortune Feimster
A little cowboy. Because, you know, it does fit her show. Hunting wives. Because a bunch of.

Texas. Yeah. Oh, that was funny.
May Martin

Really good.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. Okay, you guys, what else? Should I puff some more?
May Martin
I know something that will.
Fortune Feimster
You have a secret?
Tig Notaro
Oh, girl, spill.
May Martin
Well, I can't tell you. I can't sit. This can't be on the podcast.
Fortune Feimster
Let's talk about something that we can't record. No, I'm.
May Martin
I'm going to be. This is wild. No, no, I just can't say what this is for. But I can show you the most disturbing, manly looking image of me that you'll ever see in your life. I. I had, you know, a life cast where they have to, like.
Tig Notaro
Yes.
May Martin
You know, just like they have to make something for me that is okay.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Yeah. So you don't want to say what it's for, but.
May Martin
Yeah, it hasn't. It hasn't been announced yet.
Tig Notaro
Okay.
May Martin
Filming.
Fortune Feimster
So you're filming something that hasn't been announced?
May Martin
Exactly. Okay, but this is disgusting. And it's not. It's actual. It's actually my face on a computer. Scanned.
Fortune Feimster
Huh. Oh, wow.
Tig Notaro
My God.
Fortune Feimster
That is crazy.
Tig Notaro
Holy.
May Martin
Yes.
Fortune Feimster
It kind of looks like that guy, the British guy that Taylor Swift dated for a minute. Tom somebody.
Tig Notaro
Oh, who plays Loki.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, what's his name?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Pull up a picture of him. Tell me that's not.
Tig Notaro
I don't see it. I'm seeing. No, I'm seeing, like, maybe an ancient Roman emperor who had a Tom Hiddleston. You think Tom. Can we see it again?
May Martin
Of course. I'm happy to show this off.
Fortune Feimster
Show it. Actually, I feel like.
May Martin
People tell me I look like him.
Fortune Feimster
Come on, bring it up.
May Martin
I feel like I've been tagged twins.
Fortune Feimster
Look at that. That's crazy.
Tig Notaro
And if you're just listening to this, Tigs showing us. It's like a. This is the same. A bold blue thing of her face. It looks really. Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
What is.
Tig Notaro
How are you feeling looking at that?
Fortune Feimster
I feel like I'm very good at this.
May Martin
I. I think it's real and it's honest. And it also makes me think, like, okay, I am a gay person and I present in a more, you know, leaning in a masculine direction. I look at this picture myself and I go, okay, what if I dated men and I identified with being straight? Would my face still fall this way? You know what I mean?
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. Like.
May Martin
Like there's something going on because. Yes, go ahead.
Tig Notaro
Because I. People say there's such a thing as gay face, right? Like, and you either. I kind of. I kind of know what they mean. Like, there's like a day drunk astron face.
Fortune Feimster
She's day drunk. No, but I have a gay face. But you're day drunk. Is this a gay face if you're day drunk? Look, am I gay in my face? You are drunk in your day. I'm not drunk.
Tig Notaro
Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. Not checking in with the group before I book a horror themed escape room. Yikes. My friend has not stopped clinging to my leg since that clown popped out of the closet, and it's making it very hard to solve this puzzle.
May Martin
Yeah, checking first is handsome. So check Allstate first for an auto quote. It could save you hundreds. You're in good hands with Allstate. Potential savings vary subject to terms, conditions, and availability. Allstate North American insurance company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois.

Fortune Feimster
Yeah, for sure.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. I would like to see.
May Martin
Would you have known that was me?
Fortune Feimster
No, I would think it was Tom Hiddleston.
May Martin
I probably should have led with.
Fortune Feimster
Who do you think this is, Tom Hiddleston?
Tig Notaro
I think I would have thought it was like your. Your brother or your. Or your uncle or something.
Fortune Feimster
I thought it was your grandpa.
May Martin
Grandpa.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, it's.
Tig Notaro
I mean, when you see someone about
Fortune Feimster
the good old days, the Judds, but without hair.
Tig Notaro
I mean, anyone with like, imagine fortune, totally b. Imagine me totally bald. Well.
May Martin
And also, I can see all of, like, my lack of symmetry.
Tig Notaro
Right.
May Martin
You know, it, like, it just highlights every truth to my face.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
When they told me I had to do a life cast, which is what that's called, I misunderstood. And I thought they were saying it only needed to be the back of my head. And when they started putting the wet clay across my eyes and mouth, I got completely claustrophobic.
Tig Notaro
Oh, my God. Yes.
May Martin
And I had to wave to stop.
Fortune Feimster
I've heard that. Super claustrophobic. Whoa.
Tig Notaro
Did they put straws. Straws in your nose and stuff, and you're supposed to breathe through your. I can't.
May Martin
There were no straws. But, like, I just. They allowed me to have one Eye without the clay. And I just shut my eye, but I was like, no can do.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, my God, no can do. How long did it take again?
May Martin
Honestly, it wasn't even that long, but even a second covered in that was terrifying. I don't like that. Are you claustrophobic?
Fortune Feimster
No, but that just. I don't like the feeling of not being able to breathe. Like, I went scuba diving once, and it was. It was not for me.
Tig Notaro
Same. I get. I'm pretty claustrophobic. Yeah. If, like, if you're doing an escape room and they say, is anyone here claustrophobic? I say, yes.
May Martin
So I must say, and how does that fix anything?
Tig Notaro
Then maybe you go, I don't want to be the one to scurry into the little dark corridor.
Fortune Feimster
Don't get me scurrying, y'. All.
Tig Notaro
I had a close friend who. We were pranking each other back and forth for years, and so one of the pranks he did on me was he got me into his closet and closed the door and locked it. And it was a small, dark closet. And then he'd hidden in there a speaker. And it was his voice going, hello, May put rats in the closet with you. And I. I. Everyone's laughing, and I was going, let me out. Let me out. It's not funny anymore. And then I had to. I thought, I gotta get through this. And so I just went silent, and I just put my head down, and I was like, this will be over soon. And it was really weird because it was just a funny prank, but I
May Martin
was like, like, no, but it wasn't a funny prank.
Tig Notaro
No, I was freaking out.
Fortune Feimster
I don't like pranks.
Tig Notaro
I like them because it shows someone was thinking about you.
Fortune Feimster
No.
Tig Notaro
And focusing on you.
Fortune Feimster
That's. That's an interesting perception of a prank. I've never heard. I've never heard that before I met. Someone's thinking of you, huh?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, that kind of like someone's gone out of their way to prepare something to. To delight or torment you. Either way, it's nice that they were thinking about it.
Fortune Feimster
Someone went out of their way to Tor. How cool.
May Martin
Okay, so when I've told you about my prank where I go out into the back patio of somebody's house and I say, just so everybody knows, I'm going to bed. 10 minutes. You don't like that?
Fortune Feimster
No, that's like, whatever.
May Martin
Okay.
Fortune Feimster
It's more of your prank where you, like, tying everyone's shoes together at the table.
May Martin
Oh, okay.
Tig Notaro
You wouldn't like that.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Really? I. I'D be like, oh great, we got something to talk about, you know?
Fortune Feimster
Or like. But that one's kind of harmless. So it's like it would just kind of like. Okay, okay. But I guess it would be more
Tig Notaro
like like if I sent you an letter.
Fortune Feimster
Okay, let's pretend we're on the girl scouts.
May Martin
I Camp handsome.
Fortune Feimster
Camp handsome. And we're in our bunks and you put like a snake in my bed.
May Martin
Oh, I'm not into that stuff.
Fortune Feimster
Or you like.
May Martin
Or even a frog or.
Fortune Feimster
You froze my bra.
Tig Notaro
Is that a prank?
Fortune Feimster
My honey love you friend. Is that like a well known prank, my honey love. Wait, if you freeze my honey love,
Tig Notaro
I swear to God. Did you just invent that or is that a thing freezing bras?
Fortune Feimster
No, that was like a thing when we were kids that really people would do as like. Like they would pick one girl, take her bra and put it in the freezer. I don't know why. Or did you do the. The thing where when someone's sleeping you.
May Martin
If you.
Fortune Feimster
They said if you put their hand in water they would pee themselves.
May Martin
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Warm water.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
See like I'm not into that.
May Martin
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
That kind of stuff. I guess the tie and shoe one was not really a good example because like who cares? But it's more of that.
May Martin
But yeah, I also, you know, I'm not into the whole like. And this is so beyond a prank but like pushing someone in a pool.
Fortune Feimster
Oh.
May Martin
Like with their clothes on. And like because most of the cell
Fortune Feimster
phones now and that's like a 1200 thing in your pocket.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
And then.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. When I was a kid, if my brother would do something like that and then afterwards he'd do something objectively cruel and then afterwards he'd go for a joke and that was like. Yeah, you're right.
May Martin
Or a chip.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
He was thinking of me.
Fortune Feimster
He was thinking of you. How sweet.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Okay. What's making me want to prank you? I have to say, like, oh, an anonymous letter or something. Or how about this? You guys prank me.
May Martin
Yeah, we should prank May and that way May will know we've been thinking about them.
Tig Notaro
I'll finally confirmation about you. Who is that thinking about you?
Fortune Feimster
I don't know. Is it Taylor Dane? No. No. I don't know who it is. I've been thinking about you.
Tig Notaro
Are you guys freaked out by wax museum? Like I'm thinking about your face cast. Do you guys enjoy like a madame Tussauds like a mad sure. Don't you? Does it freak you out?
May Martin
No, I feel nothing.
Fortune Feimster
It just feels fake.
Tig Notaro
Oh, okay. I. I like into it. Yeah. I'm into any kind of novelty experience, you know, like where you pay an exorbitant amount of money and go to the gift sh. But I like seeing everyone's heights. That. I like that. And I like when, because.
Fortune Feimster
Is that the scale?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, they're to scale. Like a madam to saw two sodes, two sides thing. They're. They're just. And my favorite is when you go, now, who is this meant to be?
Fortune Feimster
Oh, it's so off.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
And would you just be thrilled if there was one of you?
Tig Notaro
Oh. I mean, I'm pretty easy to please.
Fortune Feimster
I feel like you're happy there's a
May Martin
bird that looks like you if somebody just says, I know you.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. You're thrilled. Yeah. Like, I went to the psychic I saw who. Whose face melted. She wrote me a little post it that said you are seen and understood and loved or something like that. And I got it up on my mirror in my bedroom.
May Martin
Oh, that's nice.
Fortune Feimster
I assume in relationships that's very important too, as well.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. To feel understood. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
May Martin
That's pretty common.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I guess. Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
But maybe some people need it more than others.
May Martin
That's true, Fortune. You're speaking your whiskey wisdom. Oh, here comes the puffer.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Fortune's truth serum. Yeah. Have another one. Can you go whip yourself up a little drink?
Fortune Feimster
I gotta fly tonight.
Tig Notaro
Tonight? Where are you flying?
Fortune Feimster
Toronto.
Tig Notaro
Oh, my place, where I'm from.
Fortune Feimster
I want to see your people.
Tig Notaro
Yes, you should swing by, see my mom. And you guys could de puff your face. Hello, Mom. Hello, Mum. Hello.
May Martin
Do you use the depuffer when you're not on Handsome?
Fortune Feimster
Nope.
Tig Notaro
It's only during the pod.
Fortune Feimster
There's a heat. There's a heat one, too.
Tig Notaro
That's the one I use more, actually.
May Martin
Wait, you have a whole separate depuffer?
Fortune Feimster
No, it does on the same thing. That's why it's amazing. I should use it more, though.
May Martin
Did I get sent one?
Fortune Feimster
Did you hear my tummy just now?
Tig Notaro
Fortune and I just happened to buy them.
May Martin
That isn't true.
Fortune Feimster
I bought it and influenced May.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
Is that true?
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Fortune's an influencer. And I bought an influencer.
May Martin
So that's not one of our advertisements.
Fortune Feimster
No, I learned about this from a makeup artist. And then I came on the POD once and talked to. I called it a depuffer.
Tig Notaro
The D Puffer.
Fortune Feimster
And it's a de Puffer. And then May was like, should I get one? And I said, well, everybody Swears by this.
May Martin
Yeah. And have you noticed any differences in three episodes?
Fortune Feimster
If I used it more, maybe. I also have one of those red light masks I need to start using.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I like those.
Fortune Feimster
Do you use one, May?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I did.
May Martin
Girl, tell me.
Tig Notaro
I brought it on the tour bus because it also vibrates, and I like a vibrator.
Fortune Feimster
Wait, and what is it supposed to do?
Tig Notaro
No idea. Just relaxing it.
Fortune Feimster
You make it look better. Gave it to us.
Tig Notaro
To us?
Fortune Feimster
Well, no, not to. When I was shooting that movie.
Tig Notaro
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fortune Feimster
I got a lot of beauty products during that filming.
May Martin
Good.
Fortune Feimster
Because I. It was a. A girl movie, and I was a girl. Yes, you're a girl.
Tig Notaro
I have a real parrot like, paranoia about being puffy because for some reason, growing up, my mom would always comment about people. She'd go, did you see their face was puffy? And she'd always say, it's probably from alcohol she would use. She'd say, puffy from alcohol. So now I always.
Fortune Feimster
She's gonna think I'm puffy.
Tig Notaro
No way. No, you've. You've de. Puffed.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
And is that what it does, is it takes puffiness? The depuffer.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, it. Around your eyes and stuff.
Fortune Feimster
Stuff.
Tig Notaro
Are people into this? This.
Fortune Feimster
Whatever.
May Martin
Well, should we get to our question?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, let's do it.
Fortune Feimster
Today's Question is brought to you by
Tig Notaro
AT T. Today's Question Asker is an actor, writer, and comedian who was a cast member on Saturday night live from 2013 to 2022. He co wrote and starred in the movie Brigsby Bear and wrote and directed the horror comedy Y2K. He co hosts what's Our Podcast with his longtime collaborator, Beck Bennett. Kyle Mooney is asking Today's question.
Fortune Feimster
Kyle was so funny. Oh, we haven't gotten the question yet, but Kyle was very funny on snl. Anyway, play the question.
Kyle Mooney
Hey, everybody. My name is Kyle Mooney, and I'm curious if there's a piece of clothing that you miss, maybe something that you wore a lot at a certain point in your life, or maybe something that just brings back a lot of memories that you lost or you don't know where it is. I'm excited to hear what you think.
Tig Notaro
Oh, yeah, that is a person with funny bones.
Fortune Feimster
You know, that's what I was saying earlier.
May Martin
He's a silly man.
Tig Notaro
I've never met him.
Fortune Feimster
Silly goose.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Are you guys friends with Kyle?
Fortune Feimster
I've met Kyle before. He's very nice. I think I met him at a SNL after party.
May Martin
Yeah, I know Kyle Through Stephanie came up with Kyle and Beck and all those guys. In fact, I was at Kyle's going away party when he got snl.
Tig Notaro
Oh, no way.
May Martin
Yeah. Yeah.
Tig Notaro
I want to be friends with him.
Fortune Feimster
I could see y' all being buds.
Tig Notaro
Do you think? Okay.
Fortune Feimster
I think his podcast is also a head gum.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
Yes, it is.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
We have recorded beside them before.
May Martin
Yes, we have.
Tig Notaro
Okay. I like the question, too, about a piece of clothing that you really miss, because also, when you're younger, you get more attached to single items of clothing, I think, like, and they represent, like, a real era. In your era. Era.
Fortune Feimster
Either one.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
In your life.
May Martin
Tomato, tomato.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Potato frittata. I think my answer is there. I had a gap brown corduroy hooded jacket that had, like, that fake sheep fur in it when I. And I had it, like, 13 to 17 through all the sketchiest years. And it was, like, it was so comforting, and it was very, like, gender euphoric for me at that age. Like, maybe it wasn't hooded, actually. Maybe it was. I think it had a collar. I popped. Like, it had a. Got to.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
And I just felt like I was Jack Kerouac back going around Toronto, and I'd wear it in, like, the middle of winter, freezing cold, and it wasn't warm enough, and.
Fortune Feimster
But I love no lining to it.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Yeah.
May Martin
It was sounding very Bob Dylan.
Tig Notaro
Very. Oh, you know what? Like, the COVID of that album where he's got the. The babe and they're walking down the street.
May Martin
That's what it reminded me of. With your little popped collar.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
And you wore this for, like, a really long time.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I mean, I, I. Yeah, I used it as, like, a blanket if I would crash people's house. Like, I just. And it was like. Yeah, I have friends that still mention it. Like, remember that filthy rag you used to wear?
May Martin
How often does it come up?
Tig Notaro
Just. I have my two best friends, Gabby and Nicole. We kind of rehashed the same five years of our life incessantly.
May Martin
So that's the old files.
Tig Notaro
Oh, hell yeah. Dust off the dusty volumes.
May Martin
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Apparently vintage T shirts are way back in.
Tig Notaro
Did they go out?
Fortune Feimster
I mean, like, some people always been into vintage T shirts, but it's, like, really a thing right now. Right to the point of, like, there are certain shirts in a store that, like a T shirt. Some of them are, like, 200, 300 bucks.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Well, if they're. If they're rare and collectible, like, how
May Martin
much do you think I could get for my Go Go's T shirt?
Tig Notaro
Honestly, like fifteen hundred dollars, I think. Yeah, it's an original Gogos T shirt worn by one of the Go Go's, right?
May Martin
Yes. Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
Charlotte Caffey, who I believe listens to our podcast Shout Out. She brought it to me at Largo and I will never sell it.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, it's your treasure.
May Martin
Oh man, is it a treasure. I have a whole drawer full of concert. I think we already went through this yesterday, but a whole concert T shirt drawer.
Tig Notaro
God, I want to get in that drawer.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
I also regret my answer because I have a Paul McCartney vintage T shirt that is I wore so much, it's like thread bare. Like it's got big holes in it.
May Martin
I can't wear it. Where is it from?
Tig Notaro
It's from a wings tour. So it would have been.
Fortune Feimster
Whoa, yeah, chicken wings.
Tig Notaro
Like 80s, early 80s.
May Martin
Where did you get that?
Fortune Feimster
He had a chicken wing tour.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, his chicken wing tour before he
Fortune Feimster
became a vocal vegetable sponsored by Hooters.
May Martin
There are vegan chicken wings.
Tig Notaro
I had a friend who was like, I've had this T shirt forever and I just feel like you should have it. And then, and then left it on my parents porch and then I got it and I. I wish I had been more careful with it because it's like big holes but I love it.
May Martin
Give your friend my number.
Fortune Feimster
I know. That's a nice friend.
Tig Notaro
I know.
Fortune Feimster
I didn't keep any vent. I have no like vintage T shirts.
May Martin
Do you want any?
Fortune Feimster
I mean, I don't know.
May Martin
That's. No. I know the answer.
Fortune Feimster
Old ass shirt.
May Martin

Fortune Feimster
I go into VIN. I have some friends that are very into vintage shopping. I just kind of go in the store and sit down and watch like them shop.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, right.
Fortune Feimster
I don't. So yeah, I guess I'm not into into the vintage stuff.
May Martin
I don't know.
Tig Notaro
I don't know.
Fortune Feimster
I do. No, I guess I don't want that.
Tig Notaro
But do you have an item of clothing like, like maybe something you used to always do stand up in when you first started or something?
Fortune Feimster
God, I went through so many phases of terrible fashion choices and stand up.
Tig Notaro
I want to say I would not
Fortune Feimster
want to go back to any of them.
May Martin
Wait, that you are wearing specifically? Like, okay, putting on my comedy outfit.
Fortune Feimster
Early days, it was a vest.
May Martin
Okay.
Fortune Feimster
Like a button up vest.
May Martin
You know, sometimes a tie.
Tig Notaro
Oh my God.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, I have a headshot with that outfit.
May Martin
Can you sign it?
Fortune Feimster
Then it moved into sweater vest.
Tig Notaro
Oh my God.
Fortune Feimster
That was a big one.
Tig Notaro
Then.
Fortune Feimster
Then it moved into golf shirts.
May Martin
Just trying to make your way out of the closet.
Fortune Feimster
And then it moved into button up
May Martin
short sleeve shirts and bow ties.
Fortune Feimster
And then it moved into. Which I think I'm currently kind of in a shackets.
Tig Notaro
Oh yeah, I love a shacket. Yeah, I love. With like a T shirt underneath. Yeah, yeah.
Fortune Feimster
But some of those choices were like,
Tig Notaro
I think it's time to bring back the vest and tie.
Fortune Feimster
And there was a there. And there was a phase where I was just straight up T shirt and sometimes they were too short and so just a little peak of my belly would be showing like I was a plumber or something.
May Martin
I got to.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
Gotta have a peekaboo every time for the fans.
Fortune Feimster
God, there's some rough pictures out there of me. I don't know what I was thinking with some of these outfits.
Tig Notaro
You know when you're doing a show and they, they are promoting it and they for some reason pick a 15 year old photo from. So. And you're like, do I reach out and say, can you not use that? Like it doesn't even look like me anymore.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. So I don't want to revisit any of those. But I. A piece of the shoes count in this scenario.
May Martin
Well, every counts.
Fortune Feimster
I went through a phase of. Do you remember sebagos? No, you want me. Hold on. It's like a boat shoe, but it was brown.
May Martin
But like Topsiders, they go loafers.
Fortune Feimster
I'm going to show you. So these were like all the rage when I was young, at least in my area.
Tig Notaro
Oh yeah. Those are timeless.
May Martin
Oh, that's like. They're called like topsiders.
Fortune Feimster
Well, these, apparently these particular ones were called sabagas.
Tig Notaro
No. Yeah, those are. Yeah, those look like like boat shoes to me.
Fortune Feimster
But yeah, they're like boat shoes. Well, I wore these all the time.
May Martin
Do mainly fellas wear those?
Fortune Feimster
Probably, yeah.
May Martin
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
And they had like the little.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, these, these shoelaces the leather shoelaces. Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
They would always come untied.
May Martin
Are they considered little boat.
Fortune Feimster
They're little boat shoes. And I wore these all the freaking time for like several years. But I didn't wear socks with them because they were like boat shoes. And my feet, these shoes smelled so bad that my friend's parents would have to put. Put my shoes outside when I came
May Martin
over and light them on fire.
Fortune Feimster
And I don't know why I didn't like, they're putting my shoes out. I don't know why it didn't occur to me, like, maybe you should stop doing this. These are so bad that they don't want them inside their house. And I was just kept doing it for a couple years. And honestly, if I could go back to that, I would.
May Martin
If I could.
Tig Notaro
You wear socks. If you did it now, would you wear socks?
Fortune Feimster
I would have to wear the, the like little no show socks. You know, I'm talking about.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Dainty little guys.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, I would have to do that. But as far as clothing, I rocked some Umbros Umbro shorts for many years. There was a one that was a. Like a turquoise and purple, sort of like a Charlotte Hornets colors back in the day. I wore those all the time. Okay. I would, I would like to dig up those.
May Martin
All right.
Fortune Feimster
I'd also like to be able to fit in those. But I don't think that would happen in these times.
May Martin
I'd like to see in your little boat shoes with tube socks up to your knees.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. And your turquoise umbros and.
May Martin
Okay.
Tig Notaro
And a vest and a tie.
May Martin
Bow tie.
Fortune Feimster
Can you believe I was wearing golf shirts on stage? Like, what? Why, why was I doing that?
May Martin
I went through a period of time where it wasn't standup related. It was just like me in the world where an ex girlfriend of mine gave me her old Canadian sweater that had an eagle on the back. And I just wore it all the time. I was obsessed with it when we were together and when we broke up, she gave me the sweater as a parting gift.
Fortune Feimster
Oh.
May Martin
And. And. But I wore it on stage all the time. I wore it out and about in the world. It just was always on me.
Tig Notaro
Is it the. A thick knitted one? Like.
May Martin
Yeah, yeah.
Tig Notaro
I've seen you pictures even that.
May Martin
And yeah, yeah, I wore it all the time.
Tig Notaro
That's funny. It was Canadian. The eagle feels so American. It feels. And then the.
May Martin
But yeah, yeah. The ego is on the back.
Tig Notaro
What happened to it?
May Martin
Oh, I still have it. I don't. I don't miss it, but it's just here I was just going off of the stand up outfits because people thought that I was wearing that as a stand up comedy outfit. And I. I wasn't. I was just wearing it all the time.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
And. And it was at a time when I was always on stage. I mean, open mics and dropping in, doing sets and whatever. But I would say that the article of clothing I miss is this blazer that I must have left in, like, I don't know if it was at the. At the dry cleaners or in a closet at a hotel, but it was really small black and white checked blazer.
Tig Notaro
Oh.
May Martin
And. And I just loved it so, so much. And now I don't know if it's. I don't know if it's still in style, but I. It was a painful loss for me.
Tig Notaro
See, like, I'm gonna make a note in my phone and then. And then try and find it for you.
Fortune Feimster
That's like.
Tig Notaro
I'm like, I have to go on. Well, all I have to. Or the 1v1. All I have to go on is tiny black and white. Check.
May Martin
I think it was the company Super Dry. It's a Japanese clothing company. You know, Super Dry.
Tig Notaro
You know when you see pictures of yourself as like a kid. Kid, and you're like, God, that was a cool sweater or something. Like some of the 90s stuff. I had the big bold patterns and stuff and.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
Yeah, I wasn't a kid then, but I had. I was, you know, 70s. That was.
Tig Notaro
That would have been cool stuff too.
May Martin
I still have T shirts from the 70s. Like my soccer T shirts from when I was like five and six and then. Yeah. And when I went to summer camp. YMCA summer camp T shirts.
Fortune Feimster
You can probably still fit in them too.
May Martin
Yeah, I used to. I don't. I don't think. I don't think now.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
But for a while, like 20 years ago, I used to still wear them, but I don't. I don't quite fit in there.
Fortune Feimster
And now you have them just for nostalgia purposes?
May Martin
Well, I think I mentioned this. I gave them to my kids and they wore them and then they grew out of them. And now I'm like, now what do I do? You know, it feels like I've really hit the end of the road with these.
Tig Notaro
No, don't abandon them.
Fortune Feimster
Don't say that.
Tig Notaro
Don't you say that, man. Maybe wait till your kids have kids.
Fortune Feimster
Maybe that's a long time.
May Martin
It is. So maybe I'll just open an ebay store. And sell all my old rock jerseys and.
Tig Notaro
No, give it. Give them to me first. Yeah, they sound cool.
May Martin
But again, my son is very. One of my sons is very into collectibles. And he really doesn't care what it's about. He just wants to know, is this rare? Is it a collectible? Is this worth anything? And we have a joke in our family because one night we were with Glennon Doyle and Abby Wambach, and I can't remember what it was, but somehow it turned into, well, if Abby licked it, it would be worth more. And so now anything where it comes up, oh, well, how much is that worth? Well, it's worth this, but maybe if we have Abby lick it, it'll go up a few hundred dollars. So that's our plan. That's our retirement plan, is just to have Abby Wambach go around the house and lick everything.
Fortune Feimster
I like that you lick that. I did once lose a pair of my favorite underwear in a hotel room. I'd like to get those back.
Tig Notaro
I'll get on it. I'll make a note.
Fortune Feimster
What's the brand?
May Martin
I don't know.
Fortune Feimster
They're the most comfortable pair of underwear I've ever owned in my entire life. They were like. Like, kind of light, but enough support. I've never seen them since.
May Martin
Support for what?
Fortune Feimster
My cooter.
May Martin
I mean, I have never felt like,
Tig Notaro
you need support in my underwear.
Fortune Feimster
I need it lifted up. You reach that age where your dragon code. The cooter's dropping. Oh, my God.
May Martin
Oh, my God. What the hell?
Fortune Feimster
Support for the coots. You know,
May Martin
May. Do you need underwear support?
Tig Notaro
No.
Fortune Feimster
Y' all are tiny. Y' all don't know this problem. Smell saggy Cooper, my old saggy coots
Tig Notaro
needs to be cradled.
Fortune Feimster
I need it just to be a little hammock visuals. Thank you for giving me that opportunity.
May Martin
Thank you for, of course, creating that visual. Should we hear what Kyle Mooney has to say?
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Kyle Mooney
A clothing. Piece of clothing that I miss is a T shirt I had that I got in college that I bought at the Goodwill probably in, like, 2005. And it said, if I die and don't go to heaven, send me to Aruba. And I had an iguana on it, and he was drinking a tropical drink, and he had, like, a Hawaiian shirt on. And I don't know that I'd wear that shirt now, but I wore it probably weekly from the year 2005 until 2011 or something like that. And it just. When I see a picture of it, I'm taking Back to being in my 20s and figuring out who I was and even, like, kind of figuring out what. How I wanted to present myself to the world. So I. In that way, I missed that shirt, but I don't think I'd put it on. Hope you guys had a great podcast.
Fortune Feimster
Did you guys ever wear shirts with sayings on it?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I had one. I had one. And this is maybe the most embarrassing photo of me that exists is I. I went to a Good Charlotte concert when I was 13 with a boy I had a crush on called Brett Morris. Shout out, Brett.
May Martin
Yo, Brett.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. And Good Charlotte. I. I don't. We waited after to meet them, and we got a photo with. With Benji Madden and Joel Madden. And I. I got tits. I'm in this really tight T shirt. I got long hair in a ponytail and braces.
May Martin
Have cooter support.
Tig Notaro
I had no Cooter support needed.
Fortune Feimster
You didn't need it.
Tig Notaro
And then on the T shirt, I said, it's always the quiet ones. And I'm standing there like this, and I just look like puberty is raining down upon me like a.
May Martin
So what is this?
Fortune Feimster
What does it even imply?
Tig Notaro
I don't know. Like, that you better watch out for me.
Fortune Feimster
You don't know what a spitfire I am underneath all this.
May Martin
I was about to say here comes trouble is what it means. And that is a T shirt I had in the 70s was. I don't know if these stores existed when you guys were little handsomes, but there were T shirt shops where you could go in, pick out a T shirt, and pick out an iron on.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I love that.
May Martin
Oh, yeah, I had. And I still have it. I. It's right here.
Tig Notaro
Oh, my God.
Fortune Feimster
Get it. Do.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, we gotta see this from the seventies.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, my God. God really does keep a lot of shirts. That's wild, because I'm starting to wonder what hoarding situation's happening in Tig's closet.
May Martin
I cannot believe that as we're talking about this, I have exactly what I was telling you. This is one of my soccer jerseys.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, I can't believe you still have this. God.
Tig Notaro
And what does it say on it?
May Martin
It says Spring Creek ymca. And it's from when I lived in Texas.
Fortune Feimster
You could definitely still wear that shirt.
May Martin
I don't know.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, yeah, you can.
May Martin
Okay. I'll do it for you on a special night when we go out.
Fortune Feimster
Yep.
May Martin
And then. Oh, it doesn't say here comes trouble. It's. It says official troublemaker. And there's. There's a monkey.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, my Gosh, it's so. It's very old.
May Martin
And then I had my name put on back.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, my God. I can't believe you have that still.
May Martin
Well, my. My mother had these little shirts and stuff saved of mine, and when she died and I went through her stuff. Yeah. These were. These were in.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, I see.
May Martin
And so I took them, and then. And then I gave them my kids, and they wore them, and then they grew out of them, and now I just have them again.
Fortune Feimster
Now you just are hoarding.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
There should be more of those iron on T shirt places. I love that. I love.
May Martin
Let's open one.
Tig Notaro

What I was just gonna say very quickly about Kyle Mooney that I appreciate so much about him is I find him not only to be deeply silly, but he has such an earnest, kind way.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
And like a. Just that vibe that I. I like that I love that mix of silliness and sincerity.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. I'm really glad to hear that.
Fortune Feimster
It.
Tig Notaro
That. It's that he is kind.
May Martin
I mean, maybe he's the biggest jerk in town. He hasn't shown.
Fortune Feimster
He seems very sweet.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Like, he radiates kindness.
May Martin
So that's Nice.
Tig Notaro
Okay, this is a T shirt a fan gave me. That is a vintage T shirt. And I guess on the podcast I talked about my favorite blooper of all time is Elaine on It's Julia Louis Dreyfuss on Seinfeld, when Jerry Stiller says, are you saying my George isn't smart enough to hatch a plan like that? And she goes. She goes. It means whatever. He goes, what the hell does that mean? And she laughs, and it's a great blooper. And then she goes, it means whatever the hell you want it to mean. And then he says, you saying you want a piece of me? And then. Anyway, the T shirt is really good.
Fortune Feimster
Let's see it. That what the means? Whatever.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, it means whatever the hell you want it to mean. And it's Elaine looking incredible. Yeah. I just love it. It's such a niche pop culture moment that. That blooper really cheers me up.

Fortune Feimster
I feel like. I feel like all of our birds should stay with you as a trio.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Thank you. Because I was gonna ask if I could just keep them, and, I mean, I wish I could build something that I could attach them to my shoulders and go.
Fortune Feimster
You think they could go on your shelf somewhere?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, definitely. Yeah, I'll put them up there.
Fortune Feimster

Episode: Kyle Mooney asks about clothes you miss
Hosts: Tig Notaro, Fortune Feimster, Mae Martin
Date: June 2, 2026
Guest/Question Asker: Kyle Mooney
The episode orbits around nostalgia, personal memories, and identity as the hosts respond to a question from comedian Kyle Mooney about pieces of clothing they miss. The trio reflect on fashion journeys, sentimental garments, the meaning attached to personal style across different phases of life, and the humor that emerges from awkward or earnest fashion choices.
[29:57] Kyle Mooney asks:
"Is there a piece of clothing you miss, maybe something that you wore a lot at a certain point in your life, or maybe something that just brings back a lot of memories that you lost or you don't know where it is?"
[49:44]
Warm, silly, and self-deprecating, the hosts move fluidly from heartfelt nostalgia to absurd humor, with playful teasing and genuine affection. The language is casual, improvisational, and peppered with Canadian and Southern colloquialisms.
This episode is a rich exploration of the unexpected power clothing holds over memory and self-image. With humor and candor, the hosts (and Kyle Mooney) celebrate beloved garments as symbols of lost eras, personal milestones, or pure comfort. They also interrogate the fashion choices of youth with humility and comedic hindsight, making the episode both touching and hilariously relatable.
