[Tig Notaro]

Hi, Fortune. It's Tig. Tig, how are you?

[Fortune Feimster]

I'm great.

[Tig Notaro]

You look good.

[Fortune Feimster]

Do you want to introduce everyone?

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah, this is the Joe Rogan Experience. Is that what his show is called, the Joe Rogan Experience?

[Fortune Feimster]

I believe so, yeah. Okay.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. So that's a real curveball. People didn't realize they were subscribed.

Oh, yes. That's what we were missing.

That's Tig over there.

[Tig Notaro]

That's Fortune over there. What if Joe Rogan had pretty little

[Fortune Feimster]

episodes all of a sudden?

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah, I don't think his listeners would be into pretty little episodes.

[Fortune Feimster]

I don't think so.

[Tig Notaro]

No, I don't either. Where are you? Are you home?

[Fortune Feimster]

I'm home in la. Yeah. This was a rare weekend at home, but I was film filming right now, so.

[Tig Notaro]

Oh, how's that going?

[Fortune Feimster]

It's going really good.

[Tig Notaro]

Good.

[Fortune Feimster]

It's a whirling dervish because it's a. A big movie and they're. That they're doing in two months and the four of us are in, like, almost every scene, so it's every day. It's just like so many pages and lots of. It's one. One of the few projects I've had where there's very little downtime. You know, normally in movies you're like, sitting around forever and.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

Waiting on things to get set up. And lights is. This one moves.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. Well, you're one of the stars of it, right? So that would make you busier.

[Fortune Feimster]

That's true. Yeah, that too.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

But also our director is Eva Longoria and she is very, very prepared in a like, very. Like, she knows what she wants. Exactly.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. So that's great. Yeah. Well, cool.

[Fortune Feimster]

It's a lot of girl power.

[Tig Notaro]

Yes. You gotta have that. You can't make movies without Girl power.

[Fortune Feimster]

That's right. Well, it's funny because the golf show I just did was a lot of dudes.

[Tig Notaro]

Sure.

[Fortune Feimster]

It was very man heavy. And this one's all late. A lot of ladies, so.

[Tig Notaro]

Man power.

[Fortune Feimster]

Kim gave us some skin care.

[Tig Notaro]

I thought she looked good.

[Fortune Feimster]

Thank you. Some skin care machines for our pretty skin. And some skims loungewear. So, you know, I'm just. I'm being my most pretty little lady self on this shoot that I ever have.

[Tig Notaro]

And what are face machines?

[Fortune Feimster]

Like, remember my vibrator for my face?

[Tig Notaro]

Fortune.

[Fortune Feimster]

Remember Fortune.

[Tig Notaro]

Fortune.

[Fortune Feimster]

It's like something like this, but way more high tech.

[Tig Notaro]

Okay.

[Fortune Feimster]

Okay. And it's got lights and things. And you put it on your face.

[Tig Notaro]

Did you show that to Kim and was she like, girl.

[Fortune Feimster]

No, no. She didn't even know I had anything.

[Tig Notaro]

Oh, okay.

[Fortune Feimster]

But she discovered this machine that she was really into. Yeah, I mean, you know, there's all those. It's just like you roll. You roll your face with them. I don't know.

[Tig Notaro]

You roll your face with.

[Fortune Feimster]

I've got to actually YouTube how to use. How to use this.

[Tig Notaro]

Maybe Kim can do a YouTube video.

[Fortune Feimster]

She did tell us to let her know if we needed her to show

[Tig Notaro]

us how to work it.

[Fortune Feimster]

And I think it actually would be pretty hilarious to have her showing me how to use beauty care machines.

[Tig Notaro]

And you didn't stop her and say, you mean work it and then start working it?

[Fortune Feimster]

That's right. It's the.

[Tig Notaro]

Wait, tell me, you getting a question from Kim?

[Fortune Feimster]

I will work my way up to that. I'm still getting to know her.

[Tig Notaro]

It sounds like. No, I don't.

[Fortune Feimster]

I don't like to ask right off the bat, you know, I like to.

[Tig Notaro]

I like to work.

[Fortune Feimster]

Work my way there.

[Tig Notaro]

Ease into the sequel.

[Fortune Feimster]

Uhhuh. Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

You're going to ask her for the sequel, Is that right? Or the prequel.

[Fortune Feimster]

Exactly.

[Tig Notaro]

Is there a. Is there room for a prequel to this movie?

[Fortune Feimster]

Maybe. Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

Okay. Yeah, there's a prequel to everything. There should be a handsome prequel. Ooh, who would that be? Who would play us? Yeah, Young version.

[Fortune Feimster]

There. There is a young version of me in this movie. It's kind of a trip.

[Tig Notaro]

Who is it? Anyone I know?

[Fortune Feimster]

No.

[Tig Notaro]

Oh, how like young.

[Fortune Feimster]

Young. Like, I think like 6, 15 or something, maybe.

[Tig Notaro]

That is adorable.

[Fortune Feimster]

I know. Yours would be someone who looks like you and Tom Cruise.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. Who is that? Who are the young versions of the three of us? That's a really interesting.

[Fortune Feimster]

I'd be curious to hear young Sheldon.

[Tig Notaro]

For me. For me.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

That is Hilarious. Because the guy, Ian who plays him, his mother showed me a picture of Ian where everyone thought Ian looked like Tom Cruise.

[Fortune Feimster]

See?

[Tig Notaro]

Wow, you're onto something. Okay, so wrong gender, but okay, so Ian. And then

[Fortune Feimster]

just throw some glasses on

[Tig Notaro]

Also, by the way, it just dawned on me. It was the wrong gender. I was like, okay, yeah, Ian could play young Tig. Okay. And then who is a young you?

[Fortune Feimster]

I don't know.

[Tig Notaro]

Who's a young man?

[Fortune Feimster]

May. A young May would be. I don't know who the young actors are right now.

[Tig Notaro]

Could it be Thomas?

[Fortune Feimster]

Thomas without the year. Younger than May. I know that's. We need someone younger because this would be like, what, early 20s? Late?

[Tig Notaro]

Or maybe we get a male handsome.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah, whatever.

[Tig Notaro]

We can figure this out later.

[Fortune Feimster]

Mine would be Chunk from the Goonies.

[Tig Notaro]

Thomas could be a young me since he has the mustache. That's true.

[Fortune Feimster]

Do rock a good fake mustache.

[Tig Notaro]

It's not fake. Fortune. Have you been touring a lot?

[Fortune Feimster]

No, I had to unfortunately reschedule a bunch of shows because of this movie.

[Tig Notaro]

But you. You've been touring on the weekends?

[Fortune Feimster]

I did do a weekend of shows. Valentine's weekend, because those. They. The movie gave me the okay to do those.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

And then I'll do San Diego in early March because I can drive down there. But then my tour will resume the beginning of April.

[Tig Notaro]

Love it.

[Fortune Feimster]

And then I'll be on the path to trying to get ready to film another special back, like late fall.

[Tig Notaro]

Okay. And then I'm going to be recovering, hopefully from my eyelid surgery.

[Fortune Feimster]

That's right.

[Tig Notaro]

Right after the Oscar's. And that I'll be taking several weeks off. I mean, you know, hopefully I can do things like podcast, but I'm not going to wear torn. Just wear sunglasses. Yeah, yeah, we won't care. And real mustaches.

[Fortune Feimster]

That's right. Well, I love it.

[Tig Notaro]

I love you, too. Should we get into our questions?

[Fortune Feimster]

Let's do it.

[Corinne (Listener)]

Hi, handsome pod. My name is Corinne and I am from Houston, Texas. So last year was pretty rough for me and for a lot of people around me. So this year I decided to start being more intentional about experiencing and creating joy every single day. A lot of my friends have asked for examples of ways to do this. So my question for each of you is, what are some ways that you intentionally bring joy into your life or some ways that you would like to.

[Fortune Feimster]

Corinne, Good question. It is definitely the time to try to wrangle up some joy.

[Tig Notaro]

Right? Mm.

[Fortune Feimster]

We need some joy wrangling. Well, I mean, last year was rough for Me as well, so.

[Tig Notaro]

I get you.

[Fortune Feimster]

I get you, girl. I think for me, when I was really going through it, especially the earlier part of last year, I started to. Can reconnect with friends more. I started reaching out to people more, and that was really nice. That was a good way to, like, just stay connected and not isolate. And that helps me stay in a better mood. And I would also, like, if I was. Just had a lot of thoughts on my mind. We talked about four. I would go find a bench somewhere, like in a park sometimes. I had my dog with me. That was really nice. So we would just sit there chilling and, you know, kind of people watching and just sort of, like, not on my phone sort of being. And. And just trying to just appreciate things a little bit and not get too sucked into the thoughts of things not going well. Breakfast burritos helped. Love those.

[Tig Notaro]

That's good. Mm.

[Fortune Feimster]

What about you, Tay?

[Tig Notaro]

I mean, you know, I had a real awakening, I think, when I was working on the documentary and I was living in Toronto, I was away from my family. I just started to really feel like, gosh, what am I choosing to do with my time here while I'm watching a friend want for every last second.

[Fortune Feimster]

Right.

[Tig Notaro]

And then how. And I know I've talked about it on the podcast, but how to find that balance of, like, working and doing these things I want to do.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

But also really prioritizing my number one focus, which is Stephanie and the boys and our little kitty city. And so I think that. I mean, I hate to sound cheesy, but I can't pretend like it's anything other than this. But when I get to go hang out with Stephanie and the boys and just taking a walk through our little village in our neighborhood and going to eat or the bookstore. We also do reading time at the end of the day where everyone reads for, like, 15 minutes and then talks about.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

What they read. Those little moments. I just am. And then. I know I've talked about this, but even in the mornings when Stephanie and I have our coffee and then we take our morning walk together, those are the things that I desperately missed when I was gone all the time. And the level of joy that those. And, you know, funny enough, in the documentary, Andrea has a poem called the Little Things. But that is what it is. It is those little tiny things that, like, you're saying, sitting on a bench.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

Spending time with your dog or your mother or whoever it is, calling your friends. I really, you know, it's. That's what it is. Like Utter joy. Utter joy. And in those hangout moments, getting to experience our son's silliness. You know, Max does incredible impressions, and we all sit around and he does impersonations of friends of theirs, friends of ours, people from tv. And so that's just really, really fun to just sit and laugh and connect with everyone. Like, just the best. And a pile of kitties lying around, you know, And a cute little Pomeranian. Yeah, yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah.

[Allstate Announcer 2]

Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. That's smart. Not packing my headphones when I go on the road. Now I'm on the airplane unwillingly overhearing a conversation about toenail fungus.

[Allstate Announcer]

Yeah, checking first is smart. So check Allstate first for a quote that 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.

[Tig Notaro]

But man, listen to or read Andrea's poem, the Little Things. I think it. It really puts some stuff into perspective.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah. Well, I think in general, too, like my. My mom being. Getting sick right when my life was falling apart really put, like, all of that into perspective too. Like.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

I was, like, so sad for so long and just everything was just kind of like spiraling and then she got sick, like, right at the same time my relationship was coming to an end.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

And it just kind of put me in this other orbit. Yeah. I was just like, okay, you gotta. You only have so much time with people.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

Like, let's. Let's not wallow in. In the. In the bad stuff.

[Allstate Announcer 2]

Let's.

[Fortune Feimster]

Let's focus on time together and good things and. Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

That stuff definitely puts things in perspective.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. There's so many little celebratory moments you can have in your day to day that I highly recommend getting into.

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah. And also jams. Putting on some music.

[Tig Notaro]

Also jams, like grape jams.

[Fortune Feimster]

Also jams, as in jellies. Yeah. Like, use those shoulder shimmies. For sure.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. Yeah, that's what. That's what we think. Does Corinne have an answer?

[Fortune Feimster]

Let's hear what Corinne said.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Corinne (Listener)]

Every morning I have a mandatory five minute dance party. I have committed to trying one brand new thing every month. And I have been documenting my journey of trying 50 new hot dogs, which is my favorite food, to share that joy with the world.

[Fortune Feimster]

Okay, thanks.

[Corinne (Listener)]

Love you all and love the podcast.

[Tig Notaro]

50 new hot dogs.

[Fortune Feimster]

50 new hot dogs. All right.

[Tig Notaro]

I mean, how does she just casually say that? Like, we're gonna, you know, just like yeah, of course. You gotta try 50 new hot dogs. I didn't know there were more than five hot dogs.

[Fortune Feimster]

I mean, different places, I think, like, whatever.

[Tig Notaro]

I. I would assume you're buying the same five different hot dogs at different restaurants.

[Fortune Feimster]

They're just making them different. I like that she has a dance party.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah.

[Fortune Feimster]

Do you know what also puts me in a good mood? Oh, you want to guess? Okay.

[Tig Notaro]

No, no, no. I don't need to spend time guessing. What is it?

[Fortune Feimster]

Pink fuzzy slippers.

[Tig Notaro]

That feels like it could go to the same tune as big chunky scissors.

[Fortune Feimster]

I forgot how that tune goes. The big chunky scissors.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. So let's do it with slippers.

[Fortune Feimster]

Big fuzzy pink slippers. I got my big pink fuzzy slippers on. We're going to have some fun. Did you purchase those for.

[Tig Notaro]

No.

[Fortune Feimster]

Did.

[Tig Notaro]

Did you purchase those for yourself or did somebody say. I know what she. No.

[Fortune Feimster]

This was from Kim Kardashian.

[Tig Notaro]

Okay.

[Fortune Feimster]

These are skims.

[Tig Notaro]

Oh.

[Fortune Feimster]

Big pink fuzzy slippers.

[Tig Notaro]

And do they only come in pink?

[Fortune Feimster]

I don't know, but I am wearing them.

[Tig Notaro]

She trying to fem you up?

[Fortune Feimster]

Yeah. I'm a real femme now. Yeah.

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah. I shuffle around silently in our house and slippers and terrify Stephanie with every turn because she does not hear me.

[Fortune Feimster]

They're like. They're like.

[Tig Notaro]

I did not want to draw attention to how big. I can't believe how big. I mean, you. How dare Kim make a slipper that big. Pink.

[Fortune Feimster]

It's clown. It's like clown shoe slippers.

[Tig Notaro]

It should be army fatigue design rather than pink.

[Fortune Feimster]

It's pretty funny. But I live by myself, so who cares?

[Tig Notaro]

Yeah, nobody cares. Next question.

[Sarah (Listener)]

Hey, handsomes. My name is Sarah. I am originally from Vancouver. I'm actually Calgary, but I lived in Vancouver for a long time in Canada. And I actually live in San Francisco right now. And my 30th birthday is at the end of February, and I'm going with my new husband, which is very exciting. And we're going to go to la, which I've never been to before. And since all three of you live in la, I was wondering if you had any recommendations. We're going for basically a long weekend. Yeah, please, please send them my way. I'd love to hear it. And thanks. Love you guys and love the pod.

[Tig Notaro]

Love you too.

[Fortune Feimster]

I got my LA hat on.

[Tig Notaro]

You really do. And you got your big pink slippers.

[Fortune Feimster]

Well, did Sarah say when she was coming?

[Tig Notaro]

Well, at the end of February. If you would pay attention to, like, right now. Huh? And if Sarah.

[Fortune Feimster]

I hope she gets this in time.

[Tig Notaro]

Even spends half a second listening to this podcast. She would know. My number one recommendation is. What?

[Fortune Feimster]

Hold on. Oh, wait.

[Tig Notaro]

Mm.

[Fortune Feimster]

Your number one recommendation would be.

[Tig Notaro]

Number one.

[Fortune Feimster]

Number one would be.

[Tig Notaro]

I've said it many times, and clearly you and Sarah don't listen to the podcast.

[Fortune Feimster]

What is it?

[Tig Notaro]

Do you want me to tell you

[Fortune Feimster]

to go to Largo for a show? To go to the beach, to go to a vegan restaurant?

[Tig Notaro]

Sure, all of those things. But number one is go the hop on, hop off bus.

[Fortune Feimster]

Oh, that's right. You love those. Just like my mom.

[Tig Notaro]

I love them. And you can laugh at me all you want, but guess who loves them now? Stephanie and our little cubs. Because it's a great way to see the city. It's so great. Especially if you have a few days, get on that top of the double decker. There's no roof and somebody just drives you around. And you have the option to plug in headphones to hear the history of the town and the, you know, sites that you're passing. Or don't put them on at all and just chill and have a peek

[Fortune Feimster]

and enjoy the ride.

[Tig Notaro]

And then you'll see. Oh, I want to get back to that area. Oh, I like this spot. I want to. This looks cute. And then you take little notes and you go back. Huh? So that's what I suggest. Sarah, for the millionth time, that is

[Fortune Feimster]

actually a great suggestion, because LA is massive. It is a big city and it's very spread out. So a bus would not be a bad way to hit the hot spots. No. So, yeah, I think Tig's suggestion is great. It's the correct answer if you're a hiking person. A lot of people love Fryman Canyon. No, not Fryman. That's more for local Griffith. Either Griffith park hike or Laurel. Is it Laurel Canyon?

[Tig Notaro]

Runyon Canyon.

[Fortune Feimster]

Runyon. Runyon.

[Tig Notaro]

No, no, no. Go to Griffith park, and then after your hike, go to the Trails Cafe and get the vegan sandwich. Oh, my Lord. Oh, my Lord.

[Fortune Feimster]

That is a good suggestion. LA is a big hiking city, so, yeah, a hike. If you're an outdoorsy kind of gal, the beach is always great. Hermosa beach is really beautiful. That's a little bit more of a drive, but Santa Monica is the closest one. What else? We have lots of entertainment out here you can go to. If you want to see, like, Largo always has good comedians.

[Tig Notaro]

Dynasty. Typewriter.

[Fortune Feimster]

Typewriter. If you want a bigger. They have, like, you know, the sports teams. If you're into sports. There's so many different sports teams here. There's a lot to do. Actually.

[Tig Notaro]

There really is. Sarah.

Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. That's smart. Not checking that your pinata is full of candy before letting the kids have at it. On the other hand, never fun. You're about to be contending with a whole pack of disappointed 10 year olds.

[Allstate Announcer 2]

Yeah, checking first is smart. So check Allstate first for a quote that 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.
