May Martin
Chatting with friends on the Handsome pot.
Tig Notaro
Cheers.
Fortune Feimster
Welcome to the two Handsome.
Tig Notaro
We're only three years into this.
May Martin
Yeah, that's it.
Tig Notaro
That does. That doesn't make sense, does it?
Samara Weaving
That's.
Fortune Feimster
That's Tig Notaro over there.
Tig Notaro
Oh, yes, I'm Tig Notaro and that's Fortune Feimstra over there.
May Martin
And I'm May Martin.
Tig Notaro
Yep, you're there too.
Fortune Feimster
He's like, I got this. I'll handle this on my own.
May Martin
I'll take this.
Fortune Feimster
Hi, you guys.
Tig Notaro
Hi.
May Martin
How are you?
Fortune Feimster
I'm so good. I'm on the road with my drive thru headset.
Tig Notaro
Yes, yes.
Fortune Feimster
Can I take your order?
May Martin
You're still in Toronto? Take.
Tig Notaro
No, I am. I did a show in Kalispell, Montana.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, it's pretty up there.
Tig Notaro
It's really pretty. And it's also really bright out until very late. Oh, yeah. When I got out of my show at 9 o' clock. It was birth chirping. Yeah, it was just bright as the day and I was so confused and I was so tired. But yeah, it doesn't get dark until
Fortune Feimster
10 or 10:30, something like that was how it was in Stockholm. Yeah, it got dark at like 10:45 and then it was light again at like 3:00am it's wild.
Tig Notaro
But I slept pretty well last night.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, good.
May Martin
I was unconscious until about five, five minutes ago.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, really?
May Martin
Because I just can't fall asleep. So I, I, well, I could, but I.
Fortune Feimster
What are you doing at night when you're.
May Martin
I'm eating snacks and I'm watching Outlast at the moment, this new show. People have to survive in the jungle and. But you have to be on a team in order to get the prize money. So people are.
Tig Notaro
You love to watch people survive?
May Martin
I love to watch people survive and suffer. I just want to see people in
Fortune Feimster
very uncomfortable positions have to figure out how to live.
Tig Notaro
But more importantly, what snacks.
May Martin
Oh, man. I had Sun Chips, Oreos. Oh, an ice cream sandwich, birthday cake flavored. I mean, I really went to town. I went Hogwarts.
Tig Notaro
And is this like, how often are you having snacks watching people survive? That's such a funny thing to think of. All these people trying to survive and you're sitting at home just eating ice cream sandwiches and they're literally.
May Martin
They just ate a snake that they caught and it was the first protein that they'd had in days. Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Oh my gosh.
May Martin
It is a crazy show. No. And when I'm left to my own devices that I have a hard time making the transition from into my bed, I'll just, I'll postpone it. I'll just sit, you know. Yeah. And I, and I drove home late last night. That doesn't matter.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, no, it doesn't. But it's good to know Wired because
May Martin
I've been on the highway at like 11pm which is I've, I rarely do.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
And it's, I makes me really electrified.
Fortune Feimster
I do love that you're driving now. It makes me very happy.
Tig Notaro
It's like, it makes me a little nervous.
Fortune Feimster
Like our baby grew up.
May Martin
I will say last night when I parked in Venice and I was like Austin Powers trying to park his little thing, I, my, I couldn't parallel park and I was bumping both cars on either side of me repeatedly trying to cowboy. I couldn't get in. I was the worst. And a guy walked by and I went, yep. And he kind of laughed at me. It looked like.
Jeff Tremaine
Yep.
Johnny Knoxville
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Did I tell you guys the time when I first moved to Los Angeles and I worked at that little Frida's coffee shop, and I was standing out in the parking lot, which was very tiny. It only. I think it only fit, like three cars. And I was. This is one of those, like, moments where I'm like, my head is so far in the clouds, I can't even believe I didn't track what was happening. I was standing there talking to another comedian after. There's a Thursday night come comedy show at the coffee shop, and I'm standing outside talking to another comedian and there was this car doing that little cowboy 50 point turn trying to get out between. And I was like distracted talking to the comedian, trying to help, only to realize my car was what was in the way. Like, I could have just gotten in my car and moved it like a foot or two. And. And I made some comment to the comedian where I was like. I was like, oh, God, I hope they don't like slam into my car. And. And they were like, that's your car.
Fortune Feimster
Like, just move it. I was like, right?
Tig Notaro
Oh, my God.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Guys, I have to tell you something that happened last night.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, okay.
May Martin
Please.
Tig Notaro
I get a text. Do you know the actress Patty Guggenheim?
Fortune Feimster
Huh? Hunter.
May Martin
Patty, I feel like we've talked about.
Fortune Feimster
He has a role in the. In the Hawk. In the golf show coming out.
May Martin
Oh, yeah.
Samara Weaving
Okay.
May Martin
Okay. I think I do know. I'm googling now, but yeah.
Tig Notaro
Okay, Well, I get a text last night before I went. Night night. Yeah, Tig, it's Patty Guggenheim. I have a message for you from Alanis.
Fortune Feimster
No. Oh, yeah. Because Patty. Patty helped write Atlantis's stay show. Okay.
May Martin
Oh, my God.
Fortune Feimster
Because Atlantis was doing like a Vegas thing or something.
Tig Notaro
Okay, I don't have those details.
Fortune Feimster
Patty works with Alanis.
Tig Notaro
Okay. So I'm like, what is this? And then I press on it and it's. This.
Fortune Feimster
Is that Taylor Dane?
Tig Notaro
Wait, that is Taylor Dane. Okay.
Fortune Feimster
And that's from Alanis.
May Martin
That's from Alanis.
Tig Notaro
Okay. Yes. And I'm freaking out. And I said, this is hilarious. But when you say Alanis, I assume you mean Taylor Dane. And she said, ha ha ha. No. Alanis wanted me to send you this video of Taylor Dane.
May Martin
Oh, my God.
Tig Notaro
And so all I could think is another connection with Alanis that Mae didn't have.
May Martin
Okay, but this.
Fortune Feimster
This is.
May Martin
But this is so crazy.
Tig Notaro
It's like she's trying to avoid you.
May Martin
It's like this point I like to Think of it like she's circling me like a shark and she's just picking up.
Tig Notaro
No, she's not.
Fortune Feimster
She's just a matter of avoiding your moment.
Tig Notaro
Okay, but May's not gonna have a moment with. I'm like, trying to go to bed and Alanis is blowing up my phone through Patty Guggenheim.
Fortune Feimster
That is so funny. Funny.
May Martin
But wait, we. Fortune and I. Well, I have an Alanis update as well, so.
Fortune Feimster
This is crazy. That's right. You do. Yeah.
Tig Notaro
So, Fortune, can we make Alanis the fourth co host?
Fortune Feimster
I think we should.
Tig Notaro
The amount that we talk about her and Kate Muchi.
Fortune Feimster
And Kate Muchi. They can, like, rotate out with each
May Martin
other and Ginger for sure. So I get to Largo, and, you know, Fortune's doing my Largo show two nights ago. And the tech guy at Largo, he and I have talked about Alanis before. He tours with her sometimes, and he does guitar tech and things like that. And so he goes, I got something for you, kid. And then he brings this plastic bag into the. And at first it's like just pics and stickers. And I was like, oh, cool. From the Atlantis tour. That's so cool. Then he produces this.
Tig Notaro
What is this?
May Martin
This is a small box harmonica. Yes, it's the harmonica that she plays on tour for the song. One hand in my pocket.
Tig Notaro
And let me tell you.
Fortune Feimster
And is she now like, where's my harmonica?
Tig Notaro
She's blown her spit into that.
Fortune Feimster
Someone stole my harmonica.
Tig Notaro
I know Martin stole my harmonica.
May Martin
Well, I was like. I thought, oh, she gifted this to me. Like, did you talk to her? And he goes, no, I just. I asked around and just took it from the drawer. And I guess they have hundreds of them. But she's played this on stage and it says, hand in my pocket. But listen, even if it wasn't labeled, if you've ever had any belief in, like, mysticism or energy. No, if it wasn't labeled, I would still. When I put in my hand, I felt a jolt of energy.
Fortune Feimster
She's powerful.
Tig Notaro
Also, keep in mind she did not give that to you.
May Martin
I think she would sanction.
Tig Notaro
I would love it if she were listening to this right now, being like, oh, and she.
Jeff Tremaine
What?
May Martin
Why she sues me?
Fortune Feimster
Why is my harmonica there?
May Martin
Can I. Can I play?
Fortune Feimster
I'm looking for that thing.
Tig Notaro
Wait, but that's my favorite one. Alanis blew her spit into that, though.
May Martin
I know. It's like we're kissing and she would have run. She would have run back and forth on stage. You've seen how she plays Right.
Fortune Feimster
Harmonica.
Tig Notaro
Wait, you're telling me she ran across the stage? Stage with that in her hand.
Fortune Feimster
She, like, plays it while she's, like, you know, running around. As someone who's been on stage with her.
May Martin
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Tig Notaro
And I'm listening because I'm someone who
May Martin
cares about your friend.
Tig Notaro
Text from her.
May Martin
Oh, my God.
Tig Notaro
Through a mutual friend.
Fortune Feimster
She does play it as she goes across the stage.
May Martin
Can I.
Fortune Feimster
Confident walking, hair flowing back.
May Martin
You know what? I used it. My parents used to. We used to go to Greece a lot in the summer, and there was a church there that had, like, an artifact from a saint. It had, like, the old skeleton toe of Saint Spiritan, and it had an energy. And this feels like an artifact from a saint. Like, it feels like.
Fortune Feimster
I love it. May, a saint who did that?
Tig Notaro
Sounds like her. Okay, don't get her. Can you get up and run around?
May Martin
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tig Notaro
While you do it?
Fortune Feimster
In my pocket, it.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Samara Weaving
Go to.
Tig Notaro
Go to Hulu. Go to Hulu right now.
Fortune Feimster
I love this for you. I think it's going to just take you into a new realm of.
Tig Notaro
May's headphones weren't on when we were saying that.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, by the way, during that same ships. During that same show, T. Yes. For it was the most incredible moment because May has a thing where people will ask questions, and May pulls out stuff.
May Martin
Like a question. Yeah, with the audience writes questions.
Fortune Feimster
Flanny was just like, feel free to pull out anything if you want at any point. I was like, oh, really? Aren't they for May? And he's like, yeah, just pull one out. I'm like, okay. And so I go on stage, I do a few jokes, and then I pull one out, and it says, be more confident.
May Martin
I'm like, jesus, be more confident.
Tig Notaro
Wait, what does that mean?
Fortune Feimster
They were telling me to be more confident, but it was like all caps with all these exclamation marks. And I was like, holy shit.
May Martin
Like, this is like, stop yelling at me. You know, also, I. I'm always like, I know maybe I have some vulnerability,
Tig Notaro
but, like, I've never seen it.
May Martin
You couldn't go on stage if you weren't confident. You know, I'm like, there's gotta be
Fortune Feimster
something you couldn't do half of.
Tig Notaro
So from here on out. Oh, all of our fans and listeners need to accept us for exactly who we are.
May Martin
Oh, I like that.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, we accept you exactly for who you are. And let's just move forward with that.
Fortune Feimster
I think they just are. I think they're just probably really Into May and just, you know, See, I think this mental deprecation sometimes as.
May Martin
But I have a feeling if I actually was super confident my career would
Samara Weaving
end,
May Martin
like, they wouldn't like it.
Fortune Feimster
I think you're doing just fine.
Tig Notaro
We all bring a little something special.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, that's right.
May Martin
Okay. I hope that Alanis doesn't get mad that I have this.
Fortune Feimster
She's furious. She's probably.
Tig Notaro
No, she's gonna call the police.
Fortune Feimster
Laughing if anything, because it's pretty funny.
May Martin
Oh, man.
Tig Notaro
She's gonna call the Canadian police that don't carry guns. Right.
May Martin
Be the Mounties. They're going to come on their horses.
Fortune Feimster
She'll probably reach out to Tig and talk about it.
May Martin
Oh, my God. She'll be like, how do you deal with that person?
Tig Notaro
Oh, I'm going to text Patty and I'm going to be like, guess what? May stole Alanis's harmonica.
Fortune Feimster
Pass it on.
Tig Notaro
And it's confidently dancing around their office.
Fortune Feimster
I just love that Alanis is the. The through line of the handsome pod.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. And I was also. So I, I was. I. It gave me a weird, incorrect window into Patty where I was like, how out of touch is Patty that she thinks Taylor Dane is Alanis Morissette?
May Martin
Oh, you thought she just got the wrong.
Tig Notaro
I thought she was like, oh, look at Alanis Morissette. And I was like, this is not Alanis Morissette.
May Martin
But also, that means Alanis really has a knowledge of your.
Fortune Feimster
That's right. That's a Tig classic.
Tig Notaro
That's a Tig classic. And I'm very familiar with Alanis's work.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, you are.
May Martin
Hell, yeah.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I don't have her harmonica yet.
May Martin
I mean, I'm just relieved she doesn't have your number to send you that directly.
Tig Notaro
Oh, I'm gonna get it.
Fortune Feimster
We're gonna make sure that Alanis has our phone number.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, I'm gonna reach out to Patty. I'll say, pass these digits along to Alanis.
May Martin
I just want. If Alanis is listening, I want her to know she is.
Fortune Feimster
What up, girl?
May Martin
I just want her to know. It's. I wouldn't be weird. Like, I, I, I, I, you know,
Tig Notaro
like, you're proving yourself wrong already.
Fortune Feimster
No, I know. I promise you it won't be weird.
May Martin
I won't be weird. Dude.
Tig Notaro
That's like people that are like, I'm not a stalker. I'm not.
Ad Read Voice
I'm not.
Tig Notaro
I'm like, I'm not.
May Martin
And you're like, okay, I don't.
Fortune Feimster
I don't fly off the handle.
May Martin
I just think that we would get along. We have a lot in common. And yes, she is like my, my Robert plant, my, my Zeus in a way. She said a God. I mean that wouldn't make me weird. I'm. I would be really fun. Cool.
Fortune Feimster
Well, again, as someone who's been on stage with her, I can attest that I, I. She provides such a soul connection when you look into her eyes that I had a tear roll. I'm not joking. Tear rolled on my face after locking eyes with her. She's a. I'm telling you, she's crying. A powerful woman.
Tig Notaro
I was crying when I got her indirect text to Patty Guggenheim of. You know, Alanis's footage of Taylor Dane sent to me.
Fortune Feimster
I wonder where Taylor was performing.
May Martin
Yeah, some awards show or something.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, it was an award show.
May Martin
It blows my mind that Alanis owns a phone. It doesn't feel like, it feels like she would communicate telepathically.
Fortune Feimster
Oh my God too.
May Martin
The other funny moment from the also
Tig Notaro
revealed that you would not be a normal friend. If you can't even imagine that this woman would have a phone.
May Martin
I'm sending her smoke signals. Yeah,
Fortune Feimster
Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. Not checking for handsome fan art. When I check social media missed opportunity. Nothing puts a smile on my face like seeing the art y' all make out of our silliness. So why am I watching videos about horseshoes instead?

May Martin
Quince.comhandsome the other funny part of the Largo night was so Fortune arrived after the show had started. So I was on stage and Fortune was going to be on first and then did her set. So funny. Such a great set. And then later in the show I was on stage and I felt this like presence in the wings and I look over and like Flanny and Michael
Fortune Feimster
and Lars staring at me.
Tig Notaro
And these are all people that work at.
May Martin
Yeah, that work at go.
Fortune Feimster
And fortunately staring May down hardcore looming in the wings.
May Martin
And so I'm like, did I do something wrong? What's happening? And then they just come out in Fortune's like, I have to go. So we should do the photo now and just take the photo on. It was really good.
Fortune Feimster
They were like, May really wants a picture. And I was like, I have to be up at 4am and they were
May Martin
like, they said, May really wants a picture with you.
Fortune Feimster
Or of all everyone.
Tig Notaro
I wasn't like, sounds like May.
May Martin
If I know May guys, I won't be weird. Just a picture of me.
Fortune Feimster
And for you know how they do the group picture in the beginning.
May Martin
And, yeah, it's nice to have.
Fortune Feimster
And I was like, well, I'm happy to do a picture, but Ma on stage. And then they were like. I was like, what if I just stand in the wings and do a thumbs up with May in the background? I thought that was a good option.
May Martin
That would have been great.
Fortune Feimster
And they were like. Or we just, like. You just go out there and take a picture. I'm like, sad.
Tig Notaro
Okay.
Fortune Feimster
I said, well, not. They almost went during. You were full on talking about something. I go, let's, like, wait for applause.
May Martin
Thank you.
Fortune Feimster
Thank you.
Tig Notaro
But what if the applause never came?
Fortune Feimster
No applause. But the applause for sure is coming.
May Martin
It was fun.
Fortune Feimster
They had a really good crowd.
May Martin
It cracked me up.
Johnny Knoxville
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
May is beloved.
Tig Notaro
Oh, my gosh.
May Martin
Largo audiences are just so nice always.
Tig Notaro
It's funny because there's certain comedians and performers that get so nervous to perform at Largo.
Samara Weaving
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, really?
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
People are like, I find it to be the best place.
Tig Notaro
Oh, it's so great. But I feel like it has this,
May Martin
like, lore or something or.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, yeah. Where people are like, God, I'm. I can't believe I'm at Largo. I don't. You know, I feel like this audience might be, like, too, like, snobby or sophisticated. Oh, I mean, yeah, they're. They're. They're such a great audience. Yeah.
May Martin
I felt super, like, starstruck by that venue. When I first moved to la, I think I'd seen Flanny, the owner. I'd seen him interviewed in, like, Elliot Smith documentaries and stuff about Elliot Smith. I was like, yeah, yeah. It blew my mind. Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
It's a cool place. It lives up to the height of your life.
May Martin
I got home that night, or I went to Parvs, I think, that night. Then I told Parv. Your entire set. Fortune, word for word in your. In your accent, because for. She loves the ginger anecdote. She loves. So I did, like, the whole set. And we were crying, laughing at your set.
Tig Notaro
That's amazing.
May Martin
It was great.
Fortune Feimster
That's so cool.
May Martin
I love that you were talking about your European trip with her and. Yeah, yeah.
Tig Notaro
And is that going to be part of your new material or is it just like an anecdote that you.
Fortune Feimster
I don't know. I. I went on stay because I didn't have a lot of new stuff to work out. And I hate, like, missing an opportunity to do a set and not put something in there new. So I just kind of chatted about it up top and I was like, there might be Something here I could because I do a whole bit about taking my mom on a gay cruise. So I feel like those things could be tied in.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Where I'm going to Europe, there's some.
May Martin
I mean, you gotta tell about the, the carry on luggage. Being a Trader Joe's cooler bag is really good.
Tig Notaro
A whole hour on your mother. You could do a one woman show about ginger. You should call it Ginge
Fortune Feimster
Ging.
Tig Notaro
I mean, people would talk about her a ton. I know, but like you could actually do a whole hour show that would be like in her honor and people would just devour that.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
But I'll produce it anyway.
Fortune Feimster
By the way, I just got a, I got a sauna because I want to be like, maybe, dude, sauna.
May Martin
Have you used it?
Fortune Feimster
And the title hot tub is being fixed. There's a lot going on.
May Martin
I knew.
Tig Notaro
So you went with fixing the hot tub and not your tits.
May Martin
You didn't, you didn't want to lower your tits?
Fortune Feimster
I felt it easier to do this than to fix my tits. I got a little sauna and it's infrared. I'm very excited. I haven't used it yet, but I've heard it's good for your heart health.
May Martin
Oh, it's good for everything. IT Inc. If you use it like four times a week, your general longevity goes up like 40%. And also maybe you could do some spells in it. That's what I do.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, I don't never cast a spell.
Tig Notaro
Oh my God.
Fortune Feimster
I would need your help with that. You might have to come over sometime.
Tig Notaro
And do you say the word spells with tits out?
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Like, is that best?
May Martin
Yeah. Best to be flying free. Yes.
Fortune Feimster
Well, so I wasn't. Do I want to fix the T T out hot tub? I do love it. It's called a tits out hot tub. So there's that.
Tig Notaro
Oh my God. Yeah. You could start a company for sure.
Fortune Feimster
And then the guy that's helping me do some interior design, he, he measured it and he goes, oh my God, this is, this bench is really high. I go, I know. That's why it's the tits Al hat. My tits are out. And he goes, we need a nips in hot tub. And I was like, I know. So we, we got a quote and it wasn't too bad. So they are, they lowered it quite significantly though. So the water's now going to come up to like almost my shin. But I did do a, a bench at one bench higher so that if any short people come over, they won't drown. But I think I'll still call it the tits out hot tub though.
Tig Notaro
Oh my God. Of course.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
I just love the idea of you driving a van around that says tits out hot tub by Fortune. Get out of comedy. Get into hot tubbing.
May Martin
It's pretty funny you had to pay for it though. The company should fix either.
Fortune Feimster
I had to? Yeah. I should have to pay for it because it's a personal preference and it's
Tig Notaro
a personal problem with your tits.
Fortune Feimster
And my tits are low hanging fruit. So now it's going to be nips in. It is funny though on tour how many people bring up the Tintel Hotel.
Tig Notaro
I bet it's.
May Martin
The image is really striking.
Tig Notaro
I was going to say there's no better thing to think about. And I'm like flying through the sky, heading to a new town. I just think about Fortune's tits out. But.
May Martin
So what do you get? So what kind of. Is it a barrel sauna?
Fortune Feimster
No, it's. It's just the box. It's a two person. It's technically three person, but there is no world in which three people would fit in that. It's. It's a two. A tour, an infrared. I can't have a friend join me. If any of the handsome pod wants to go in there.
Tig Notaro
What if they sit on your lap?
Fortune Feimster
Oh, three of us did it. One of us is sitting on a lap.
Tig Notaro
Great. Let's.
Fortune Feimster
I'm okay with that.
Tig Notaro
Put that on the list, Thomas. All three.
May Martin
Triple sauna and then tits out to a handsome sauna.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
You're gonna really. I think if you do it before bed. But you'll need the best time. Yeah. Because it increases melatonin and stuff.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, okay.
May Martin
But you'll have to shower after or something because you'll be real sweaty.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. You know, Fortune doesn't like to clean.
Fortune Feimster
I'm putting ficus up in front of it so that I can go in there. Cooter out.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
So the paparazzi doesn't like aren't seeing this, you know. I want to go cooter out in this thing.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
This. Yeah, your backyard. Tits out, Cooter out.
Fortune Feimster
It's. It's.
May Martin
The ficus is better.
Fortune Feimster
Better and necessary. Trust me.
Tig Notaro
Gams. A blazing gams are gammons. Tig gams, cooters. All going on in Fortune's backyard.
Fortune Feimster
I'm a piece of meat in my backyard.
Tig Notaro
Hey, girl.
Fortune Feimster
A filet mignon. Anyway, that's what's happening in my life.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Very excited.
Tig Notaro
Getting texts from Atlanta.
May Martin
So I'm about to have A weekend where I have. Oh, never mind. Actually, I have no plans. But then I remembered I'm going to go to Dyke Day at Pride tomorrow. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fortune Feimster
They do two different Prides now in la, so I get very confused.
Tig Notaro
Don't they have the West Hollywood?
Fortune Feimster
They have the West Hollywood one now and then they have the LA one. They used to all be one and somehow the organization split, so now there's two. But I like that you're going to Dyke Day.
May Martin
Yeah, I thought, yeah, I'm gonna go. I. Well, I have a couple single friends who want to go, and so I'm. I'm gonna go and try to make it. Yeah, yeah. And try to sort of.
Tig Notaro
And is Dyke Day like.
May Martin
I think it's inclusive of just, like, people with vaginas. I think it's like the focus is like, AFAB people. I just started using that term. Afab.
Tig Notaro
What is.
May Martin
It's assigned female at birth. Oh, so it's. So it could be non binary people. It could be.
Tig Notaro
Is it like a butcher type situation? No, it's literally just.
May Martin
Yeah, just like the way West Hollywood's kind of more gay guy focused. This is more like. Yeah, I see. I went one year and it was. It's. It's so the way, like, West Hollywood is like. And it's. This is like barbecues, dogs.
Fortune Feimster
Everyone's reading, kids each other.
Tig Notaro
Not barbecued dogs.
May Martin
Barbecued dogs.
Fortune Feimster
Barbecue space. Yes.
Tig Notaro
You know, classic dyke. You know, barbecued dog.
Fortune Feimster
No, they're over there rescuing dogs, if anything.
May Martin
Oh, I have something cool.
Fortune Feimster
What?
May Martin
Well, so I had. I. I had followed this. I saw on Instagram this thing that was lesbian oil wrestling, and they do events that look really cool. And I followed them, so. And then they DM me and I said, what's your next two for you to wrestle? Yeah, they. Or they just said, thanks for the follow. And then I said, when's your next event? I want to come. It looks like a party. And they go, we'll have one. They messaged back, they said, we'll have one. Whenever you want to have one. We'll organize one.
Fortune Feimster
That feels like a May party if I've ever heard it.
Tig Notaro
I was gonna say, this is like.
May Martin
So I said, I don't. I don't. I just want to come watch. Like, I don't want to. You don't want to co produce. But then they just emailed me and they said, would you like to emcee the lesbian oil wrestling event in LA on July 3rd? And I said, of course. I said, can Parvati and I co. Emcee it.
Ad Read Voice
And can we all.
May Martin
Can we also wrestle? And they said yes, so we're gonna. We're getting.
Tig Notaro
I'm sorry.
Fortune Feimster
I might have to go to this.
Tig Notaro
When is this?
May Martin
July 3rd. Will you come?
Tig Notaro
I'm not gonna be.
Fortune Feimster
I don't know if I'll be in town.
May Martin
I don't know what the vibe is.
Tig Notaro
I guess I could helicopter in.
May Martin
I don't. I don't think it's bring your oil like an orgy. I think it's legit. Like.
Fortune Feimster
No, I don't think anyone's having a wrestling.
Tig Notaro
What do you mean you don't think it's an or. Why? I wasn't even thinking about. Oh. Oh, my God. Classic May. And by the way, I don't think that barbecue is going to be an orgy's.
Fortune Feimster
Like, at what point are people doing it?
May Martin
I just like the idea of getting that aggression out in a safe arena. Everyone covered in oil. Like, there's something really fun about it. I think you wear mouth guards and stuff, and you just. I.
Tig Notaro
That sounds like a living hell.
Fortune Feimster
I really don't want to be living hell. Really? Oil living.
May Martin
Well, you know, I don't like to be oily either, but I think I could get over it if it.
Fortune Feimster
People would pay big bucks to see you in poverty oil wrestling.
Tig Notaro
Oh, my God. People would pay big bucks to see you just oil your body down. Yeah, of course.
Ad Read Voice
Of course.
Fortune Feimster
This is a break. The Internet kind of video. You need to put it online after.
May Martin
I think I'm gonna start working out now, and I'm gonna.
Fortune Feimster
What is. You're already super fit.
Tig Notaro
Don't you already work out?
May Martin
I mean, I've seen her, like, in a competitive situation. I've seen her, like, on.
Tig Notaro
You've seen her survive on an island?
May Martin
Yeah, she, like. I've seen her, like, dislocate someone's shoulder by accident on Survivor or maybe that wasn't her. I think that was her. Her friend. But she can throw down.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
So she's got, like, a strong center of gravity, and I'm a bit of a noodle, so I'm gonna really. I'm gonna start.
Fortune Feimster
I. Too soon, then. Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Can we move this?
Fortune Feimster
Can we move the day?
May Martin
Yeah, Maybe the end of December. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, July 3rd. It's got to be.
Tig Notaro
And then Fortune and I could do commentary.
Fortune Feimster
That's right.
May Martin
You guys will be like the two Muppets.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, we could.
Tig Notaro
While you're wrestling, we could. Oh, my gosh. We have to do it for a live stream.
Fortune Feimster
Live stream?
Johnny Knoxville
Yes.
Fortune Feimster
Yes.
May Martin
I don't know. I think I want you for the, like, Fight Club. I want this to be just for the memories.
Fortune Feimster
Well, it would just be for the live stream. We wouldn't. We don't have to put it out anywhere else.
Tig Notaro
If you're doing it just for the memories, then just like oil yourself up and down and do it at home. Yeah.
May Martin
I think the atmosphere is going to be a lot.
Fortune Feimster
Do you have the ability to do this whenever you want?
May Martin
We're going to emcee throughout and then I think we'll wrestle at the end and. But I think the people who participate are like, really good at this.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. Keep us posted.
May Martin
I will. I will. For sure. Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Should we get to our question?
Fortune Feimster
Let's do it.
May Martin
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
I'm gonna think about this.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. Thinking about May getting all oiled up and I'm thinking about Fortune's tits out, which is my normal go to.
Fortune Feimster
We're giving a lot of people some good stuff today.
Tig Notaro
They really are.

And she seems so funny and cool, isn't she?
Fortune Feimster

Samara Weaving
Hello, handsome pod. It's Sam Weaving here. I am absolutely honored to ask You a question. I'm a huge fan of all you Wolfy Wolfingtons. Okay, my question today is, what is the most unhinged thing you've ever done? You know where you're going? This wouldn't say, I've lost my mind, but I did it. Can't wait to hear your tales.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, wow, I do love the Australian accent.
Tig Notaro
What was that last thing she said?
May Martin
Can't wait to hear your tales.
Tig Notaro
Oh, oh, oh.
Fortune Feimster
I can't wait to hear your tales.
Ad Read Voice
Can't wait to hear tails. Can't wait.
Tig Notaro
Can't wait to hear your tales.
May Martin
Can't wait to hear your tales.
Tig Notaro
Can't wait to hear your tales.
Fortune Feimster
Well, gosh, that's gonna take me a minute to think of because I don't consider myself an unhinged person.
May Martin
Yeah, I love the word unhinged is so specific. So this is not like regular anecdotes that we've shared on the pod. This is like something that you're a little bit like, what does this say about me?
Fortune Feimster
Right, Right. Any of you guys have one off the top of your heads?
Tig Notaro
Off the top of your tits out.
May Martin
I think I have. I mean, I. Yeah, I think I have.
Samara Weaving
Like.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, God.
Tig Notaro
Yeah, this is pretty unhinged.
Fortune Feimster
That laugh leads me to believe something's coming our way.
May Martin
I'm thinking how to. How to choose it.
Tig Notaro
Okay, like, well, so just pretend like we are your much needed therapists.
May Martin
Yeah. Okay. Okay. So I guess this is. This is it. Oh, my God. So I've had, like multiple sort of erotic experiences during massages and whenever I tell people, them. Well, so the first time I was 19, I was in Nepal.
Tig Notaro
What do you mean the first time you were 19?
May Martin
Oh, no, the first time this happened, I was 19 and I was in Nepal and. And some stuff went down with the masseuse and I was sending. I was giving off signals, and then
Tig Notaro
he was like, what are the signals?
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, how does one do this?
Tig Notaro
Yeah, yeah, you're on this.
May Martin
Like, you're on the table. I'm on the table. He would.
Tig Notaro
And you're going in wanting to give signals.
May Martin
No, that. No. Well, now sometimes you probably have to
Fortune Feimster
see if you feel the vibe with whoever the. The Massu person is.
Tig Notaro
How do you feel the vibe? Because the masseuse is like, giving.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, I don't wanna.
May Martin
I don't want to come across like a creep on this.
Tig Notaro
Too late, Too late.
Fortune Feimster
I have another question. Is it usually a man or a woman or both?
Tig Notaro
Okay.
Fortune Feimster
Putting the vibe up for.
May Martin
I've had Both.
Fortune Feimster
Okay.
May Martin
And. But so this was. I mean, like, when I was 19, this is when it started. And the door was kind of open. Was. I was 19, and this guy was kind of testing the waters by, like, going up very close to the area. You know what I mean?
Fortune Feimster
Okay.
May Martin
And he was super handsome. And I hadn't had sex in months, and I was like. I went back.
Ad Read Voice
That's what it was.
May Martin
I went back for a massage, like, the next day, and I think that gave him the signal. And then I was, like, breathing in sync with him and whatever. He ended up going down on me.
Fortune Feimster
That.
May Martin
That was. And then afterwards, I told people and they.
Fortune Feimster
I thought he was going to, like, put a finger in. I didn't think he was going full mouth.
Tig Notaro
Guys, guys.
Fortune Feimster
Full mouth is, like, very personal.
May Martin
From behind, guys. Well, I was the face down.
Johnny Knoxville
Guys.
Tig Notaro
What is happening to our innocent podcast?
May Martin
Is this too much?
Tig Notaro
Thomas is hiding his face. I've never seen that happen.
May Martin
This was just the. I mean, the lead into the real unhinged story.
Tig Notaro
This isn't even it.
May Martin
This isn't even it.
Fortune Feimster
We'll let you continue.
Tig Notaro
I think we stop here.
Fortune Feimster
No, no, no. I think we have to continue.
Tig Notaro
Wait a minute.
Fortune Feimster
Turn it. Turn it off for now.
Tig Notaro
Wait a minute. How on earth does that go from massage? Does. Does he ask?
May Martin
Yeah, he said this was a weird experience. This was not.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
Like, so I was. And I was in Nepal. He didn't speak English. And he basically was like, the second time I did. Oh, my God. Anyway, it doesn't matter. But he said. He said a funny phrase.
Tig Notaro
Okay.
May Martin
He said this too. Sometimes also good. And then I said, what? And then he said, is it okay? And then he started going down on me. I. I come in 10 seconds because it was like I was already ready to go. And I was like, this is. But the thing is.
Fortune Feimster
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom.
Tig Notaro
This.
May Martin
Sometimes.
Tig Notaro
This.
May Martin
This too, sometimes also good.
Fortune Feimster
Wow.
Tig Notaro
Okay. Thomas, can you write that down?
May Martin
This too, sometimes also good.
Fortune Feimster
And he wasn't down there long?
May Martin
No, because I was. It was like I was.
Fortune Feimster
It worked. It worked for you. Okay.
May Martin
And then we. Then he asked me on a date. We made out a bit. Then he asked me on a date, and then I didn't go on the d. Date. And then he emailed me. I'd given his story me his email. And then he said that he wanted to get married. He wanted a Canadian passport. And then I thought, how many tourists have you?
Tig Notaro
And anyway, so this went from this to sometimes also good to Will you marry me?
May Martin
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
And for a passport.
May Martin
I wasn't planning on sharing that.
Tig Notaro
And this is not the unhinged.
May Martin
This is an unhinged one.
Fortune Feimster
We need to get to the unhinged one.
May Martin
But the reason I told that one is like. Like, after that experience, I. I skipped out of there feeling great.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
And then I would tell people about it. I was like, oh, my God. And they were like, are you okay? Or like, they were like, oh, wow, that's kind of bleak. And I was like, I feel good, but now I'm absorbing your things about
Fortune Feimster
their shame about it.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
But I'm like.
Fortune Feimster
I went, that's fine.
May Martin
I don't think I do. And. And because I've had it.
Fortune Feimster
I've had it happen to a friend before, and she was very into it.
May Martin
It happened.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. Not the num num, num part, but.
May Martin
Oh, my God.
Tig Notaro
What did she have a finger? Oh, okay.
May Martin
So. So then cut to.
Tig Notaro
I do not give off those vibes if I'm.
Fortune Feimster
Me neither. I would be, like, bummed. I'd be like, I actually want massage. Can you please stop?
May Martin
Yes, for sure. That. I mean, most massages I have, it's regular massage, but sometimes I like. I'm a very. Like, my whole body is an erogenous zone. Like, I.
Tig Notaro
Right.
May Martin
You know, and I get relaxed. And there's something so nice about not having to perform or, like, try to be hot. You're just lying down. Anyway, so cut to. The unhinged experience was. Because I thought that was the pinnacle. I'll never have that again. And I think about it frequently.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
And then I. I got on an app. I got booked a masseuse, and I was in.
Tig Notaro
So there's a masseuse app.
May Martin
There's multiple masseuse apps.
Fortune Feimster
But is this an app with that you're going on with the hopes of more happening or. It's a legit.
Tig Notaro
This too, sometimes. Also good dot com.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
No, I was just. I wanted a massage. I was super tired. I was on tour.
Fortune Feimster
Okay.
May Martin
And the masseuse came to my hotel room, and he's this. This giant man. He's like 6 foot 5, like, muscular. The first thing that happened was he did. He mentioned it was his birthday, and I thought, huh. And he said, yeah, I. I wasn't gonna work on my birthday, but I'll. I thought I'd take the job. And anyway, I was thinking, this guy's.
Tig Notaro
What if you just immediately started singing happy birthday to him?
Ad Read Voice
Awkward.
Birthday.
Tig Notaro
Happy birthday.
May Martin
And anyway, long story short, I ended Up.
Ad Read Voice
Yeah.
May Martin
Having like tantric sex with this humongous man for. For three and a half hours in the hotel room. And then. And then he. And it was one of the wildest experiences of my life. It was. It was so connected. Like it. So.
Fortune Feimster
I know.
May Martin
And then afterwards, I. I've only told a few people this. And in fact, I swore to myself, you know, I would never tell anyone.
Tig Notaro
Thousands of people hear now, what is wrong? But you're unhinged.
Ad Read Voice
I do.
Tig Notaro
Simply unhinged.
May Martin
You think it's crazy. I mean, listen, we used.
Fortune Feimster
I think we were very safe and these two consenting adults.
May Martin
I mean, to be honest, I was the one driving the encounter.
Tig Notaro
Like, how did you drive the encounter? Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
I do have some follow up questions.
Ad Read Voice
Yeah.
Samara Weaving
How.
Fortune Feimster
How does this. How does this go down that. Start going down that road?
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
Well, I think what he expected. I'm sure he's done this before. I mean, first of all, this is.
Tig Notaro
I know he has.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, I know for sure.
May Martin
This is the most amazing massage of my life. Like, he. He was a gifted bodywork, like, healer, like his giant hands. And he's like breathing. And I start breathing in sync with him and he's playing this music and so he was like a really brilliant masseuse.
Tig Notaro
That feels like it's a. It's. It. That's what you do is you start breathing at the same time.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah, the breathing is.
Tig Notaro
Come up a few times here.
Fortune Feimster
I would love to have this guy work on me without the dong.
May Martin
Oh, but.
Fortune Feimster
Well, you don't want the dong experience of this.
Tig Notaro
And I want footage of you face to face with the large man saying exactly that sentence. Just.
Fortune Feimster
I like the massage. Just no dong, please.
May Martin
Well, so.
Fortune Feimster
So okay, let's continue our breathing in sync.
May Martin
Yeah. Then he's like, whatever. He's like, is this. He's. He asked consent multiple times. Because I'm like, I'm literally. I'm like, my energy is like, please go further with this. Like, I'm like. So then that happens again. I come in two seconds.
Johnny Knoxville
Oh.
Fortune Feimster
Because he's like touching. He's like touching things.
May Martin
He starts touching things. Yeah. Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Okay.
Tig Notaro
On your body.
May Martin
On my body. After about half an hour of massaging.
Fortune Feimster
Oh, I need a lot.
May Martin
And then. And then he's like gonna just keep massaging or wrap up the experience. But then I was like literally begging him. I was like, please let me take you to my bed. And he was like, okay.
Fortune Feimster
Wow.
May Martin
I was like, took him by the hand, took him to my bed, really took control.
Tig Notaro
I Would love to see you leading a giant man by the hand to your bed.
May Martin
Yeah, that is great.
Tig Notaro
That is just a wonderful.
Fortune Feimster
And then. And then three hours. Three and a half hours.
May Martin
Yeah. It was like. It was wild.
Fortune Feimster
It's like an owie.
Johnny Knoxville
Owie.
May Martin
No, no, no, no. It wasn't. It wasn't like three hours ago. Crazy. It was just like. It was. Honestly, I. It was like.
Jeff Tremaine
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
What may. It was what.
May Martin
It was just pretty wild and very sensual. Very connected. Like it. And then afterwards.
Fortune Feimster
Are there any breaks?
May Martin
Not really a lot of it. Well, he'd go back to massaging and stuff. But then, anyway, I felt conflicted about it after only because of. Well, he left. And I was like, am I out of my mind? Who was this person? And I'm in a hotel room and like, I. And then I thought, have I just internalized, like, societies? Because that was ex. That was.
Ad Read Voice
I was.
May Martin
That's the type of porn I watch. I felt like I was in my dream fantasy of like one of many dream fantasies of different dynamics, but that's one for sure.
Tig Notaro
What if he walked out of your hotel room and behind the door he just heard you say owie?
May Martin
Oh, God. No, it wasn't.
Fortune Feimster
I don't think I've done anything for three and a half hours.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
The craziest thing was then I texted my friend who I was on tour with, and I said, I. Like, I had a moment of panic after. I'm just like, am I like, I don't know what's wrong with you?
Fortune Feimster
Did you give him five stars?
May Martin
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I did. And. And.
Fortune Feimster
But for real. No, you were. There was no owie at any point, you're like, no.
Tig Notaro
Good question. Fortune. It was a follow up question.
Fortune Feimster
Thank you.
May Martin
It wasn't three hours of penetrative, like, pounding. It was like, okay, that's what I needed to know. No, it was like tantric.
Tig Notaro
It was like I can't even share what I. What came to mind for me, that was unhinged at this point.
Fortune Feimster
Well, we know this is not a path you're going down.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. It's like I'm listening to your story and I'm like, how do I even share mine?
Fortune Feimster
We are so boring. Oh, my God.
May Martin
No, I want to hear yours. I feel like I'm. I'm having regret about sharing, but I shouldn't.
Fortune Feimster
Right?
Tig Notaro
You shouldn't have.
Fortune Feimster
No, there's no.
Samara Weaving
I'm a.
Fortune Feimster
This is a no judgment zone. We laugh because we're a silly. A silly pod.
May Martin
I think everyone. Yeah. I'M sex positive, I think.
Fortune Feimster
Sex positive. We know that about you. Very.
May Martin

Really be Sensual Month. And may we. We support your endeavors.
May Martin
Thank you.
Fortune Feimster
Because you're good and you're safe. That's all we care about.
May Martin
It was interesting, though, like, the. The flash of anxiety afterwards. And I was like, where does that come from? Because I literally. I objectively just had one of the best times of my life. Like, that was crazy. And then afterwards, I was like, oh, God. But then why. But those days might be through for me. I. You know, when I'm in a relationship, I'm. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Well, you might be able to apply some of that into your current situation, you know.
May Martin
Oh, very much. Absolutely.
Fortune Feimster
I've never been in a tantric situation. That just seems like a long time to do anything. I think I need frantic situation water.
May Martin
I need snacks. You could stop for.
Fortune Feimster
I need a break.
Tig Notaro
Unless you ate the snacks off of somebody.
May Martin
Yeah, true.
Tig Notaro
Here's what came to mind. For me, it was when I was in junior high school, I was, you know, cutting up in class, as I did with a friend or two, and we got sent out of science class to sit in the hallway. That was the punishment. But our classroom was at the very end of the hallway where the bathrooms were and where the doors, like, they had, like, exit doors at the end of the hall near the bathroom. And we were sitting in the hall, and I said to my friends, what if while we're out here, we go get a bunch of toilet paper and toilet paper the school? And so we went into the bathroom, grabbed all of this toilet paper, and during school hours, we were just toilet papering the. The trees and bushes out while people
May Martin
were just in their classrooms looking out the window.
Tig Notaro
Yeah. And then another teacher came out of the classroom and caught us mid going in and out of the school. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And so that felt a little unhinged, but nothing compared to.
May Martin
Yeah. When did it get tantric?
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. When did the owie part happen?
Tig Notaro
I know it's like, you know, I was a kid that was up to some stuff, but not.
May Martin
But there's real boldness there to be like, I'm already in trouble and I could get caught at any moment. I'm gonna in plain sight.
Tig Notaro
I lived my life as a kid thinking, like, I'm not, like, killing anybody.
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
Like, that's How I would kind of make decisions. I'd be like, is it murder? If not, then fine. Yeah. I'm not like, killing anybody.
Ad Read Voice
That's tr.
Tig Notaro
Anyway.
May Martin
Did you get in big trouble? Were you suspended?
Tig Notaro
I wasn't suspended, but I, you know, I can't remember. I was all. There was always something going on, you know, that was just another one where it's like, oh, my God, she's toilet papering the school during school hours. And it's like, but why would you send the kids that are acting that way in class out into the hallway to sit alone?
May Martin
Yeah.
Tig Notaro
It's like, what, we're just going to then start behaving ourselves?
May Martin
Yeah. Your punishment is you can't be in class.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
May Martin
Fortunately about you.
Fortune Feimster
Well, that was equally as exciting as Maze. I, you know, I've always been like, too responsible for my own good. Like, I. I didn't even like, really allow myself to be unhinged in my younger days and do those wild things you're kind of supposed to do when you're younger. I would say the most unhinged thing I probably did was I. I just was like, lonely a lot. When I was in high school, I had a lot of friends. I was friends with different groups of people. But I think because I was friends with a lot of different groups, like, sometimes I would be included in things and sometimes I wouldn't because you just aren't clocking people as much when you're kind of the person that's going throughout the group. And, you know, back then I was no shade, but I was left home a lot by myself on the weekends. So once I was old enough to start driving, I would just kind of drive around town and like, drive by my friend's house just to see, like, I don't know what I was looking for. If I thought like, they would magically come outside and be like, come hang out. No.
May Martin
So you wouldn't felt psycho door? Yeah. Because would your. Would your heart rate go up a bit because you knew you were being a little sketchy?
Ad Read Voice
So you were.
May Martin
Yeah. You were stalking your friend.
Fortune Feimster
I was like, I want to hang out. No one's asking me to hang out tonight. Like, and then I did actually drive past a friend once and she lived on a, like, dead end street. She's like, what are you doing? I was like, ah,
May Martin
God, you're in. My friend.
Fortune Feimster
I didn't know if you wanted to hang out or anything thing.
Tig Notaro
And did you hang out?
Fortune Feimster
No. I think she was like, I'm going to. I'm going to. Home to bed. I was like, great.
Tig Notaro
I'm going where everyone else is hanging out without you.
May Martin
She's like, if I wanted to hang out, I would have said so.
Tig Notaro
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
I was just like a little bit of a wayward soul at times.
Tig Notaro
So that's funny.
Fortune Feimster
I just hadn't quite found my confidence yet. And just like, call. Just call your friend and be like, do you want to hang out? Like, what are you doing?
Tig Notaro
Boy, did we all have very different levels of unhinged. I mean.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. I never got, like, crazy. I never really got crazy drunk or anything. I mean, I told y'. All. I already told you that. One time I had a party at my house for my friend's.
May Martin
Yes.
Fortune Feimster
18th birthday with the stripper with the acne on his butt. That might be the most unhinged.
May Martin
Yeah.
Fortune Feimster
Night I had in high school where it's just a bunch of girls covering their face while this acne butt guys, like, grinding his pointed wiener on him.
May Martin
Pointed?
Ad Read Voice
It was.
Fortune Feimster
Remember, it was. I don't even remember. It was like. It was, like, crooked.
Jeff Tremaine
Oh.
Fortune Feimster
I think he had something in his
May Martin
Speedo to make it look bigger.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah. So that. That was my. My. My little toe dip of being wild. Was hosting that party. And then I didn't really drink in college. I was pretty. Pretty boring. Yeah. So college days, I don't have all these, like, wild stories that some people have. And then I think I got drunk in LA once at a Halloween party where I was wearing a Hooters outfit, and I did crawl across the floor at one point in my Hooters outfit.
May Martin
Like, sexy.
Tig Notaro
That is hilarious.
May Martin
Oh, my God.
Tig Notaro
That is so.
Fortune Feimster
That's maybe the extent of my. My wild days.
May Martin
And. And I shouldn't have regret about sharing that. You think?
Tig Notaro
No, I don't think at all.
Fortune Feimster
You're living your life.
Ad Read Voice
Yeah.
May Martin
And also, I'm pro. I'm. I'm pro sex work, too. It's like, it. This guy felt like a healer. Honestly.
Tig Notaro
Huh.
Fortune Feimster
Anyway, he healed me.
May Martin
In fact, I told him that after, and he was like, okay.
Fortune Feimster
You said you healed me.
May Martin
I said, a wizard. And I was like, you're. You're like a very gifted. Like. And he was like.
Fortune Feimster
Anyway, you're like a wiener wizard.
May Martin
Yeah. Yeah. No, we had a good lull. We had a good laugh.
Fortune Feimster
All right. Should we. Should we hear Samara's question? I mean, answer.
Samara Weaving
Okay. Before I tell the story, you must know my husband is a picky eater. And there's no real logic to it. Like, he likes cheese on pizza, but doesn't like cheese on pasta. And like, we'll have nuts in a candy bar, but then, like, no nuts on the salad. Like, it's just a bit illogical, which drives me a bit nuts also, if you were, like, going to invite me to a soiree of some kind and
Tig Notaro
then you hear this story and you
Samara Weaving
go, actually, never mind. I went mad. I went insane. Okay, I'm unhinged. I went unhinged. This is not. Not in line with my principles as a professor. Okay, here we go. So we were at a picnic, and my friend offered us all walnut and chocolate cookies. And Jimmy, my husband, said, oh, no, I'm allergic to walnuts. And I just went, no, you're not. No, you're not. Just say you don't want it because you're a weird, picky eater. And he was adamant. He doubled down. He was like, no, I'm allergic. And I just knew in my heart that he wasn't. So that night, I was making dinner and I ground up walnuts.
May Martin
Oh, my God.
Samara Weaving
Like, laughing like, this could potentially kill him.
Fortune Feimster
But I knew it wasn't.
Samara Weaving
I knew it wasn't going be.
Ad Read Voice
To.
Johnny Knoxville
To.
Samara Weaving
He wasn't going to die. I just knew that he was lying, giggling, sprinkled it in our dinner, watched him eat it like a creep. And then when he finished, I waited like 10, 15, he was. And then I went, ha. You're not allergic for walnuts. But it was. I. I remember feeling at the time like, this is. I'm. This is.
Fortune Feimster
That's hilarious.
Tig Notaro
That's unhinged.
Fortune Feimster
That is unhinged.
Samara Weaving
Now he has a baby with me, so he's locked in.
Tig Notaro
Oh, wow.
Fortune Feimster
He probably was like, what?
Tig Notaro
I know.
May Martin
Oh, my God.
Tig Notaro
That could have gone a very good way.
Fortune Feimster
Super south cut.
May Martin
Yeah. Him in the hospital. Oh, my God. But I. When she says she knew in her. Her heart and gut, I believe that.
Fortune Feimster
Yeah.
May Martin
Yeah, that is. But there must have been a moment when she was grinding them up where she just thought, what have I become?
Tig Notaro
Yes. Yeah. But it is. It's funny when you know somebody so well and you know when they're answering something or responding to something, you're like, I know what's up. Yeah, I know what's up.
Fortune Feimster
Well, that was. I mean, we really went to a new place with each other and we really did.
Tig Notaro
Mainly with May.
May Martin
I know. I really overshared and I'm sorry, if you're listening and you fast forwarded those parts.
Tig Notaro
No, no.

Guest Question Asker: Samara Weaving
Release Date: June 30, 2026
In this uproarious, candid episode of "Handsome," comedians Tig Notaro, Fortune Feimster, and Mae Martin reunite to answer a question from their friend, Australian actor Samara Weaving: “What is the most unhinged thing you’ve ever done?” What unfolds is a blend of outrageous storytelling, confessional laughs, and warm camaraderie, as each host reveals wildly different definitions of “unhinged” — from tantric adventures to high school toilet-papering and acts of low-grade teenage “stalking.” There’s also room for harmonica theft, oil wrestling invitations, and a recurring thread of Alanis Morissette-related antics. Buckle up for oversharing, supportive banter, and a fair bit of giggling as the trio explore what it means to truly let loose.
The episode is raucous, playful, confessional, and warm—highlighting the trio’s trust in one another and their willing self-exposure (especially from Mae). Candid stories are met with rapid-fire jokes, genuine curiosity, and affirming support. While wild anecdotes spark shock and laughter, the hosts circle back to themes of self-acceptance, non-judgment, and humor in the face of vulnerability.
This episode encapsulates what makes "Handsome" unique: comedians feeling safe enough with each other (and their audience) to allow sincere, sometimes deeply personal, sometimes just plain goofy stories to flow. If you wondered what “unhinged” looks like through the eyes of three different comics (plus one Australian movie star)—this is the one to check out.
Closing Note:
If you want to see Mae and Parvati potentially oil-wrestle, learn more about harmonica energy transfer, or simply delight in mutual embarrassment, keep it Handsome — and tune in to the next laugh-filled episode.
