This is water for an illusion Well, that's kind of cool looking Hann, you know the good thing you're proting your scpt on but It counts as like nothing because it's just a screw off Yeah And it was my most exciting thing I got I was like, ye I'm so honored to be here. This is awesome. I mean, I have nothing to talk about, but No, that's none of my business Whoops. Oh, that's actually a title. Oopsy. How long Oopsy, My mistake. Sorry Try to trend with that one What were your alts? What were your alts? I think it's a great title. What were your alts Do you guys, when you do a special of some kind, do you do Title first Think about it the whole time and it's toward the end probably. Unless I have a theme, but I never have a running I've done three. I had one good one and the other two were bad. Some comics are so good at like the coolest freaking d. And then some people are like cheeseburger. Yeah But I'm a danion. I think I honestly kind of panicked. Oh, my first special, which was We write at Dawn I like that one. Thank you. at the very end yes I had no title, and I had a joke about guns about how women are the only people that legally should be able to have guns because of the statistics, it's just data and science, women and STEM And I just added, we rite at Dawn in the middle of that joke to make it make sense. So that's just a little behind the No, that's kind of great sometometimes little ad liives I thought of one line in one of my jokes this weekend and I was like Ohoh, I gotta remember that And in the middle of my act, I remembered it for about five minutes. but I'm still doing my act And then at the end, I go, no idea But I figured out later, but you know what I mean? Like if you think of something you're throwing out there, these comics that don't record And they just keep doing sets. I go, what is the point? You don't remember what you said. There wor terrible memory Like, you know some of these comics are geniuses, like it's you know me You know what? I can I can just tell. So you record every set. Oh, but I don't record Well No I do I do record, but you know what it is ' hard to listen back, right I think I just yeah, I think I just plan on just doing the set so much that I say it's like a story. When you tell a funny story to a dinner table and you say something that works, you're gonna to say it at the next dinner table because like that's the spot you like. But forget a tag that you came up with, which is always the best ones, U is true. I wouldn't wish you' my worst enemy It's to while you're shooting the special, did you have one youot one while you shot, which is rare Oh, you mean like some of the crowd workork and stuff Well, yeah said rerite it on and that was not regular line. Oh that Yeahah Well like it added kind of perfectly and Doesn't the audience love when they're watching a special and You finally say the title and just makes them feel warm and happy. Well, can I just say from someone who loves movies, We write it Dawn just makes me happy. I think it's cool. That's a good name. We write Daonwn says so much. We write it Dwn. What It's suppos bad ass. It's badass. I wanted to like get people to feel something, which you know That's what we do as artists also we read a Dawn. I don't even know what that means. like when is D when is Dawn which just means it's a posse or a group of men in the eighteen al going. We ride a Dawn I mean we're going to go light, we go kill everyone. As That is it, I think. Do you guys wake up earlier now in your More experienced ages. Oh I have at six every day. Yeah. I have farmers' hours. I live on a farm and I get up at six every day to feed the pigs and the cs sit And you just have horses. What time do you put yourself down at night? Don't put you to bed. That's a good tle for a special. What time What time you put yourself down at night? It sounds like a dog that's not doing too well. We putut them down. No, I I meander, you know, I kind of ten, ten, thirty Sometimes if I'm really exhausted, I'd like to sleep nine hours if I could get it. That's like a real like reset sleeping orre you're like a three, five an hour person Oh no, I love sleep. I don't think I would have made it as a comedian if I didn wasn't good at sleeping on planes. sleeping on couches. I canleep I sleep anywhere. Sleep on the subway. I take my boot like propofol at night and just take a little And then the Michael Jackson juice. tied? What is afall is a new What they do when they're giving you a surgery, they put you under could be. But Michael Jackson had that at home. and I'm like,, I didn't know you could have it at home. He's like, Well, you can't. And he has a doctor do it And then the doctor like took a phone call and came back Bact Hey guy It's great we're talking about this right now. I really love it. withith Michael, the movies' going to a billion. So should did that. There's a documentary coming out. Anyway, yes, David. Oh I see This one's for Hannah U usually I get a question too again. goo ahead. I have a question I have a very question. told Dana, I saw you at the Netflix. Sit show brrunch, which was pretty fun U, evenven though the brunch I think lovely Ted surrounds his wife, Nicole. had a great brunch I didn't know pizza was the number one thing for brunch, but anyway, H has notes. We served a lot of people, but I said to Cana One of my hard hitting questions because we see everybody there. You get up in people's faces and I get a grill and I get Hanah I wanted to do giggly squad when my movie came out. and she goes, We don't have guests. And literally one second later, Kate Hudson goes, I can't wait to be on your show Tonight and I go like this Busted. Do you want Th a man Answers quickly for a second. I'll step away. I'll ask you again in a second That was horrible timing. That was bad timing. I know I saw page behind you like a That's Heather. Heather's laughing. One of our producers they're obsessed with her.k. We actually we don't do guesss, but Netflix was like, we'll pay you talk to guests on stage. And I was like, is it Davis Bay there like I was gonna pay. Okay. you know, we're gonna to break into guests. It's just you guys know guests are the worst. It's a hassle. Well, how many episodes have you done We've been doing it since twenty twenty. L we're So like three hundred eighty kill that thing We just went to two episodes a week. I love interviews though. Like I love interviewing people. I would dissect David Spade I would make a question. You would deconstruct, deconstruct him and then reassemble him in forty five minutes. I get you'd have that. Yeah. I would love to. So Well our guest could be like you, it would be easy, right? Oh stops. Also because you're louing and you do a podcast. not Yeah, you know what's up Yeah, I just podcasting is so, so fun. and I do get a lot of material from podcasting with my best friend. You guys know, you start riffing next thing you know. Yeah yeahah So it's kind of like crowd workor for me It does liquify. It keeps your brain like that. So two a week is You werear harder than twice as hard Wow You know what? I felt like we were holding back with one episode But Paage and I, we can't speak that much during the week because then we burn material. Right. You can I watch one Yeah There's no women dooo be harping. Yeah. I mean, two times a week for an hour age, that's not too much for you guys No, not at all. And then We'll have some notes, but sometimes we don't even hit the note. L we'll just start rambling and because we're so different, we'll always argue So Bring any topic up and we'll have disagement. There was a good vibe. When I saw you were doing some hard hitting subjects like high heels Actually, I saw we did a whole episode on chess d. com O what Chest Chest. com are you familiar with Magnus Carlson? It's u Oh they got. Oh chest. Yeah, I thought he has chest. I feel like male comedians would love the chest drama 'cause it's like lonely men who are like I'd like to talk to that guy. That guy's a genius, right? very smart. Yeahmaster. Fatdling the demons' a grandmaster. he accuses this young guy of cheating and no right how he cheated and they think it's because put taps in his pants. What did he doome? Dude, these fucking guys at are grandmaass get smoked by a kid, it's the best thing they ever Yeah they like slay on the table. Hell! I could fight and h a ruck He thought he had anal beads in his butt and they were doing morse code to tell him. And I said that's genius. at that point, let him win.'s crazy. I've never heard of anything like be ridiculous. Hanging on, I got something coming through. No no, I've just never heard anything like that. He's like, do it again. I didn't feel that way. I'm not cheating stupid id on high U? Ifave you ever had sex with a chess grandmaster, I you don't have to answer that.'s probably Do have a I've never met a ch. I really my husband's the first smart guy I ever met How did you know he was smart when you meet him? what was the five? Oh or Well, I because I was a former athlete, I dealt with tennis nationally ranked for audience. Thank you. 've I dated I've dated some like CTE Men, but large strong Sturdy Interesting And that'll you could last a year easy in one of those relationss. on for a while. sureure. You could ride that wave. Well you're the smart one and you're kind of running the show Oh yeah, you're like, I'm just I'm silly and like goofy. But I don't I'm not a caretaker type. so when it came to like They hurt their knee or like they lost a game. I was like, you should call your mom. L I don't have a game Right Oh God, when they lost a game, it wass like, What about when they retire and now you're full and he's like, let's start a TikTok and you're like, o Yeah, and then he like can't play with his own kids because his knees' been redone eight times Yeah Tnisly Tennis is really that brutal, I guess. Yeah att a high level. Yeah, that got h. That what are you more turned on? a goty wall a big wallet. You don't need money. Intelligence or sense of humor, what do you put of it? It's crazy O overlap I haven't dated since being a comedian Like I've never been single on the comedians st. Oh, really? Probably a blessing So I've never been, you know, out at the clubs, you know, getting DMs for men. I didn't have a guy in different area codes, like I was just working on my art How's that margarita, by the way? This is ice cob. I am. It kind of melted. I honor that, man No I want to ask you also about the God em R you have to make more fun of it. I know we will. but Des is older D older. and he's traveled So like He knows about the eighties And I could ask him a lot of different questions about he watch he reads stuff about the news. so like I don't have to he's like, I'm like, what happened G What's going on overseas.. Yeah. And he's made a lot of his own life mistakes so that he's learned from that he can bring to me. So that's value. I think that's when you're like I'll keep this person around longer because They know things I don't know. And I think that's been helpful. Th old people are interesteresting. Have you ever called him Daddy just casually? I joke that he's Zaddy a Z, which is o because it's that combo 'ause Daddy means like daddy, but like sexy, right? Sexy. D David's like, yeah Yeah, ye. No, I don't think I've heard that terminology. That was a little like two years ago. It was Zaddy. I just heard it Buten I argue For all the girls I want them to date older guys. That's why you guys brought me on to talk about this. David was telling me exactly what to say. He was like, say that older men are great to in your life. but They The hard thing is you guys are smart, so sometimes he wins arguments which I thought was illegal, not after a marriage over a professional Wor class stand up comedian. He can his player. Well, this is the problem. That's pretty smart. He's also a stand up comedian. That's where That's where I didn't think about it. He's Yeah. And he's pre trained. like he's seen a lot of different angles these other women have done So I'll do something and he knows terminologies. Oh I know that old chest. I start crying, he's like stop with the fake tears and I'm like this. This guy's good. He knows better than you know yourself. Easily tricked young guys. Young guys. Yeah, young guys are just sudden have to be like And they'll be like, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. That's not sad. It' an iot sad. Also young guys you give them a little kiss, they're like happy again, older guys, they've seen too much already. They're like, don't get your tits out of my face. sm Get your tits out of my face. This isn't over. Yeah So there's pros and cons of a smart man Yeah. Interesting I like everything I'm hearing But yeah, the brunch was fun. Was it? David, you Do you get sick? Do you get sick of seeing all your comedy friends in one place ever or is it joyful for you No I think for you, it might be more fun because you guys were outliers because you're not there all the time. Yeah. But you were doing a Netflix thing because the funny thing was You're with all your comedy friends. I get on that little stand to take that picture and I'm next to my two favorite comedians, the cast of the Hunting Wives I'm like, well, one hundred plls. No I I actually like those girls. They were very sweet, you know And listen, if you're getting invited you on Netflix It's not my party. They're just conglomeration of people And everyone was, it's fun to see everyone in person A little bright for people to see me, but it was fine I'll tell you, dads, Eespecially Dana is impossible to shop for They always say they don't want anything, but you know, that's not true.

And then you could walk in and out, you know, breeze run And he goes, it's really hot outside But it's nicer under the tent, but there's no signs to say that it's Nicer under the tenth So he goes, I was been up there for so long But there's no smes. And she goes, Oh yeah, well maybe they should have some they don't st in the fucking fucking sun Was there a pecking order? I might thing would be like there'd be like the It was very And then the super cool grp. It was very high school. like there's super seniors that are say letterman Chappelle and Eddie Murphy Yeah. Y Shane there Same is not there there o Iate He was touring I think. L was He was playing North Dakota, you know, you put a stage in the middle of stak The Midwest he was playing He was playing the greater Mid Grand Canyon. it. When we interviewed Shane on this podcast, he was sort of this SNL thing had just happened. and Oh wow. He was like, ye, I'm playing clubs and They're talking about a theater maybe or so And then like skyrocketing Houston I met Shane back in the day when he was like opening for people And I was just sitting in a green room with him and he was like, if I could just get a comedy central. scripted show off the ground, that would be my dream And was it was beautiful. we can make it happen. Well, the Dave, you have a shane story where he's even before that And's working at AutoZone, right? If I couldn even go to a comedy club, I would pay so much money. Shane, you're gonna be big. No When I met Shane, he already had a money gun like Aab Rocki I don't see him that much. I do like Sh. I think he's funny and what about all this drama with a roast Oh, I know. I didn't I didn't go I u id Paagege say she went? No, Page wouldn't go anywhere without me So you guys are really Francis not just for the Mia. It's not a fake friendship Yeah because I heard you guys blabbing about it and it was like She said it was too long and I was like People don't know, when you see a roast normally There's some fat trim now So they help you a little bit. They're like, Get rid of that. we'll get rid of the. But she like when she goes, the rock was on forever he suck I know what I feel he got drunk He was lsey That's right. He gave Rck like a wedding speech. He did have my favorite one of my favorite lines when he said What he saying He said Tony was a sassy bigot Asassin? That's God. There was Dana there was some fucking shrapnel flying right and left crazy. It was like Do you think they need to do it live? Like I feel like people would still watch it. two hours condensed, protected I think Netflix is on a live kick because best ratings on network Chris R special was all football, all these things So eighteen out of the top twenty shows in the year of football games and Monday night. So They go, what's live? what can we make live? Chris Ruck, do him live. You know, just try things have the guy climbing the skyscraper live There's something about it like we have to watch it now And so The roast is good live. I think they'll keep it live, but Maybe it's better you see all the bumps and bruises because there's some dead spots, there's some shit where Wait, am I supposed to walk up now and You know, they would it's like a podcast. People are doing the dishes. Oh, he's on, you know what I mean It's like a background noise. J. I just want to hear a little racism in the background. Would you ever do live stand upp on Netflix I'm so scared regularly. Rock said it was so scary. and he doesn't get that scared and He's never been scared of anyone He would do it again. He was scared when he was growing up, but I think he's cooler now Yeah, that's. I't think he did he did well. He just One of the things I love to leave before Like right when I hit my hot spot, I'm like gota go like Yeah That's how I am in social situations. That's how I'll be on this podcast. It's already too long. R. Always leave before your peak. Yeah Eactly. So wanting more. So what about Chris? how do you relate to that what you just said Do you think he landed it perfectly? I mean threw the mic over his head, right? Yeah, you said he got off. He should have got off sooner. Oh the rock Oh, oh, oh Chris. Oh you No rock. Oh yeah No rock. We got we let's start over but this is I've got a Rock Hudson jk that I do. I do a Rock Hudson impression And I also could do Rocky. Rocky. That's the first time we've gone seven minutes on a podcast talking about Rockck and it was the wrong person. Not Chris Rock. It was the Rck. And we actually were agreeing for a very long time. Well no they matched They matched pretty good. You said Rock scared of anyone and I was like Chris Rock. That's what I was like. Well, you were talking about Chris Rock the special and then and then Hannah brought in Rock Yeah at the at the thing. Yeah, it was it was a disaster It was a pod never aired. Badcasting peak. That was Yeah padcasting. We're gonna keep you this. We're not gonna edit, but So would you ever be roasted if they were gonna pay you seven figures? Well, it's for actually iron I'm not like a roast comic. like W when I was com when I was doing the clubs all the time, like I judge a roast battle every now and then, but I never did it I did that one thing for Netflix where I did like roasting the year with Jeff Ross Which we like they gave us like five days to like up with material and it was it was like very fun. Think I like attention So I don't It think there's anything people would say that I would be like, You, I can't say no right now because I do love. No, but I mean, like I was even talking to Chelsea before it and she's like, they're gonna call me a whore. And I'm like, a whore is so like two thousand. It's like Yeah. Oh that's what you guys are talking about. I like that angle of like trying to guess what they're gonna to say. was like whore like do better. and then like that she's old and it's like, she looks fucking She did look great She looks great. same Well goo ahead. Well, I'm just curious about you and life. Like I had the need to please disease for a long time. Then I had five years of therapy And so how how were you in life? Like because in when you watching these rows, you see actual hurt, you see pain, you know, because because the idea is like is there is this how the world perceives me? is the way they think about me. Not all the time. you can see theirre good sports. Kevin Hart's got so much muscle memory around this. I think he isally impenetrable. So see is this the way What's the cruelest thing they could say about me? So How were As a New Yorker, I'm originally from Brooklyn, New York. Oh our language is just shooting on each other, just ye. like I walk down an example. My dad roasts me nonstop and he's my best friend No No, I'll put red lipstick on. He's like, you look like a fucking clown. And I'm like, it's beautiful to be seen by my father, you know. But that's how we show love. We make fun of each other. So like making fun like if I met David at the brunch and he was like, Hey, how are you? I'd be like, he fucking hates me. But we're making fun of each other and I'm like love that guy. So yeah, R. But my u They would make fun of me for being on reality TV. They'd make fun of me for being a woman in comedy. They make fun of me for I mean that having an older husband, like and nothing that I haven't heard. I've survived reality TV interternet Yeah You've survived those whispers in the microphone and they go back and look at the tapes and they're like these two. I've done the you go on stage. All the male comics leave because the girls on stage. Like that's the most painful Like Oh my what? What com close that? You like there's like a good show on and like every comic's on and everyone's hanging by the, you know Whver watching. and then you go up and everyone's gone. I'm like, what the? Where do you go on your sets? Where do you practice So I came up at the stand. L I really lived at the stand. During COVID, we were like on the sidewalk. There'd be like a full family children and I'd be just talking about You know My pussy and S we do. do you know how it is I just saying crazy shit and then And you just see like a dog going by just looking at you, just disappointed in you. But I think like that really got me kept me sane too, because I had come from reality TV And I was like, I just want to be myself and be on stage and off the internet and just like feeling alive And as a former tennis player, stand up was very similar to me than tennis. Like you're alone out there You're battling your demons and I just got obsessed with it So how I mean, I was just curious because you're on the reality show and then you become the same. How long did it take you? or did it was it Were you doing it all along or why did you leave? How did you get really good at this All great questions. I was say Thank you, Hannah. In twenty seventeen I started working for this like company called Bches, where they make funny memes. So I was the one writing like funny tweets, I was writing sketches. So it was like a joke writing bootcamp, but I never wanted to be a standup comedian. I love standup comedy. but I just didn't see that for me. But I met a lot of New York standups I put them in my like sketches and stuff. And then I started tal pop. And my what? What is Vox pop? Oh Oh, that was that was I had a sales job co calling sales before that. Oh, I'm sorry. It it says part of Bches, it says comomedy Oh, I've no that sounds like an interview series Th maybe who knows I don't know have I have Vox pop I got it treated. I have to legally tell you.ill It's a pillar pill and a half. Yeah go ahead I slowed you down. So back to how you've exed I'm posting sketches online and whatever and I never considered stand up. and then I get asked to do a Reity TV show And I'm like, fucking, I'm twenty six. I'm single I didn't think I am a fit for reality TV, but whatever. I like attention. let' let's I want to be on camera, which is embarrassing. you you know, when you admit to yourself, you want to be on camera. I think we all are embarrassing, but yes. Yes. So then I I started podcasting pretty early. I had my own like mental health comedy pod And my first live show was at Caroliness in New York City And it was a sold out show because I had just started the reality TV show and my friend I had This was really fucked up. I had a bunch of friends in stand upp who were like We think you have the chops. You're writing jokes all the time T We dare you to try some stand up at the top of your show, whichich any standup would say you shouldn't do. But I basically took all my tweets and stuff and I'm like, that's a premise, that's a punchline. And I put them in sections. and I love writing. and I thought I was going to bomb. I also I had a lot of anxiety when I was a tennis player with performance. like Whenever I could fold or like a cheap beach chair I would So I was like, Oh, no, I'm putting myself up again to fucking embarrass myself But I swear to God, I got on stage and I felt weirdly calm. And after the show, everyone was like, the stand upp in the beginning was our favorite part And then I had a bunch of people standandups be like, if you want to do this the right way, you gota get up four times a night, d d d And I kind of just put my head down and did that. And I got fired from the reality TV show. So that was a beautiful coincidence to then who dropped the hammer on you? Did somebody fire you on you? It was it was more like If you have to get along with the friend group Oh you didn't. So you didn't play well with others. They were like, we don't want you here anymore. and I was like, o, you fuck you guys The comedians in my life kept me sane because I would tell them all the crazy stuff that happens on realI TV, like all the editing and the frranken Bites and what they're cutting out and my comedy friends thought it was so funny. So instead of like offing myself because I was having a horrible time on reality TV. My standup comedy friends were like, that's hilarious. usese that on stage and it was kindind of like a therapeutic thing to fall into stand upp It did Summer House That was a call, right? So you're kind of when you go up the first time, I just wanted to get the audience kind of know you and also you had a podcast So you weren't just a waitress who went on stage. No, no, no. But I was at a point though where When I ended my reality TV career was three years, two amazing, beautiful years, one bad year When I went on stage, I felt like people hated me Like I felt like I had a bad sent on me. and I feel like as a comedian, people have to trust you you have to be liable. Like that's the number one part. So Going on stage, I had to overcome like these people think I'm a type of way And I have to show like I'd rather you just be like Oh I don't like Hannah for Hannah, then I don't like her for this scene that isn't how it actually happened. Oh also most people walk up And there's a blank slate. You have to win them over one way or the other. They just see you. There's no preconceived notions. So You're going in sort of at a deficit like I think they don't like me already Yes, but I also was so fortunate that I could sell tickets Yeah enough. like I could sell I wasn't selling out clubs, but I was selling enough to go on the road So I had someone tell me like, look you'll be able to sell the tickets the first time But if it's not good, they're not going to come back So I kind of had this like this is your chance But um I'm a creative person and I just I was like, than God, I'm not doing reality TV anymore. And I want to write my own stuff and be a performer, make people bring people joy, you know So it ended up Ver, pretty quickly like Four years, five years into stand up. was my first Netflix special.. It's a lot of pressure go because a lot of people have to build an audience and they get to get better while they do it. but You have the crowd there. It's almost like harder to say Wh aren't you this good like a professional headline?'re like just started And they also have to do lots of time probably Well, I say that I had to do an hour very early. So even when I said, Ohh, I'm two years into comedy, I'd been doing an hour the whole time So while doing sets in between, but I feel like I had so much stage time When I first started, I actually started with, I joked I had forty five minutes and I get off stage and they're like, you did thirty three minutes in a Q and A. Like I was fighting for my life. Yeah. But then you like get one good story, and next thing forty. And I have a lot of friends. who were like, I I'm not ready for an hour, I'm not ready for an hour. I kind of just went about it in a my own way. I think if I went a traditional way I wouldn't be where I am today because I'd still be like working on my I mean, when I got JFL new faces, I never had had a type five I had to reeverse engineer what my type five would be because I started with fifteen at the clubs Did you engineers a lot? I love your resume and how you got into it. I just wondered when in those five years, did you have times when you're like Um, somethingomet happened on stage and it was epiphananyal like this is my lane or this is winding down. this is what I do. this is what I'm best at. You know, because David had that, you know, because he was right out of eighth grade when he got started. R remember David the owner of the club said to David, the throwaways between the lines, there's your sweet spot Right day up. He said my first time. he said I go, how was I It was only amateur night did like three minutes, but he goes It was all right. That material wasn't that great. He goes actually What you were saying in between was funnier And he walked around I was like, D then I listened to it and I was like I was saying stuff in between commenting sort of was my whole thing. Because that was your authentic self. Yeah And you are doing something you like with comedy versus a reality show, which you're not really doing anything. You're just like physically there, but in front of the camera, you're getting used to pressure and performance. They was hated They would feel Yeah well I think it was so great for my career for sure. L now I'm so my ego has been broken so many times that now Like what and now I know when to speak, when not to speak. Like when I was on reality TV, I was just like, I'm just gonna to say my truth. And now I'm like, this is not You have to protect yourself and protect your family at all times. I've made so many mistakes when I was young, so now that I'm like really into stand up, I feel smarter. But yeah, it was I did get I have to give credit to my husband who's He's a big stand up in Ireland. His whole career was in Ireland. really? Oh That's great to hear. Yeah. So he's like experienced a lot. He was the one who when I got my first Netflix special offer. He was like Yeah, no, you need Tour for eight more months And if he wasn't there, I would have just been like Okay, let's film it And he also told me because I just wanted to kill and I'm a perfectionist kind of. So I'd go on stage and I'd just like hit it every time and he was like, Give yourself permission to get lost on stage. like not know where you are, like like B said to you like the magic is when you're trying to figure it out and he's like, you're not going to get better unless you're loose And that's where I kind of started to get more into like the crowd workor, which I think kindind of Gave me u a little bit of my voice because I feel like I talk to people Like they're, my friend Like I'm not just like, and guy in the front with their shirt. Like I actually try to like understand them. And and doing the clubs, it's so fun to talk to the audience, especially when you're sick of your material. So I think crowd workork was also where I was able to obviously do clips and stuff, but where I was able to find my perserspective Yeah because I think sometimes with specials, if you don't have multiple times shooting it, if it's just one shot You don't give yourself permission to be playful because this is your only time. you feel like you're doing an outline I do think being alive in the frame on stage they can tell if you're alive. You're still got your act, but there's these little throwaways you go to someone that all does So u Would your Esma be willing to watch my stand up and just sit me down for a little? He would love to and he can talk and help you with other things if you want. if you're having trouble with any fights life Anone. No that was great advice. Yeah. Be yeah, he's like my little Russian gymnastics coach I also think my second special though, obviously like I'm a better standup, but I was just sillier. When you're more confident, you're just like Yeah, I could do this voice, but what if I really did that voice and leaned in and committed to it? So I think that's my comedy has just gotten like even looser. you just get a little That's the best place place to be where you're just not thinking up there at all, and you're just going totally by instinct at moments and hitting things really hard or really trying to entertain yourself a little bit Yeah. And then it's funny how sometimes when you like Go less, it's funnier with a voice, like if you say it really softly. So I've just been having so much fun on tour just playing more and Be I am like an energy comic. I'm not like just doing like genius one liners and being like, sit with that slick one. Like let me sit. Figure that one out. Yeah It's a thinker. I'm like, cararry the one. Let me know if that. ye. mine aren't all thinkers There's a dinkers When you have podcast does well like Dan and I sometimes go out together. David does fine in his own But sometimes it's fun. Well we both go out on our own also. you know what I mean? But we also could go out together So Do you do a podcast tour and then you do like a regular tour or something? Yeah. you do not do that with a podcast? I did my stand up tour for my first special And then Paige and I went on the road for a giggly squad tour, which was bonkers. We did like a PowerPoint, which by the way, PowerPoints are hilarious. I highly recommend, especially if you're forgetful. And when you just go to the next slide, it can hit so hard Oh just gets a big laugh when the show. Oh, that's funny. Yeah. It's a little bit of work up front, but yeah, you could do it. Once you sit' That's to put some stuff together. so Is she okay on the road? That's a tough thing my God is tough. Okay, so Paige I'm a little sturdier. Paige is a dainty classy angel. She like gets carried places. like I put her on my back. L when I her I'm her boyfriend. I'm putting her luggage away. And she was like so excited about all the outfits and stuff, but we were worked like dogs, We would have two shows a night. four in four in a row, four cities And she started like actually having like panic attacks. Sure Fucking tough. And we were in Denver, there was no air And she was like trying to put on a corset and she just like started crying. And we we were like There's three thousand girls waiting and I was like, Hey, can I cack you for a second U Are you ready And we like had to I basically kicked her onto the stage And I was like, the adrenalineal hit get the fuck out there. We got her some beta blockers But she was having other stuff going on. I think Tor, if you're stress about other things, Tor will just take it to the next level. But we finished Tor and she's like, I can't wait to do that again. So I know she lik that. I mean, at least you're sitting in one Cindney with the day to day flying is also what gets to you. like Pack, so pack getet a back go your And your body like, I'm not working out, I'm not eating healthy. And then you look in the mirror and I just tell myself I'm bloated from the flights, It's not that You accused me of Oh yeah, you do. Oh, I have a question for you about standup. When you do a special Do you think the female comics are more pressure to really glam up because you look great and you're special. Thank you. We were saying like Dan was like Joan Rivers and Philill Tody Fields, Phil Tiller. Yeah, there's RoseieDonald. you know, this it's kind of newish likeike a guy could get away with him Youter h. I always say I love these guys that just dress like school shooters, get on stage I mean, Shane Love of my life did MSG with like his hair was just straight up. like he just sh. And that's a full arena. Like they can see were adorable. Yeah. And it was adorable. yeah I think It does suck that I have to do all this glam where I'm like the boys don't have to do that But the girls get into it. like I did like a custom outfit from this brand Fleur de Mal, French. And then I hadake trailer. Yeah fake There more opportunities Well, I hate to say it because I've always been very like I love comedy ' just about being funny. But then like the better you look, the more stuff you're getting and I got a spray tan. I had full glam. I had a corset, I kept ripping, they're sewing it back. It's all this chaos in addition to being like, and now be fucking hilarious. Yeah which I don't love because I'm an athlete. like I go When I would go compete, I didn't have to worry about if my hair was in the right position. I'm like, let's just. Tomboy. Yeahah, you can be a little bit of tomboy. Yeah and too I I go out with Niki Glazer a lot and yes. she always looks great We just did Caesar' this weekend. I'm like, She looks so good. I did have a hoodie on the first night and we were laughing like, it's the same exact shit But I'm so adorable that it's hard to explain. I'll tell you guys I have like a working on material outfit Like, you know, when you're wearing new stuff that's you come in with the hoodie, I'm working I'm working off. Don't expect too much Yeah yeah, I just woke up but forgot everything. but there's some notes I didn't start dressing up really until I started doing theaters and I felt like I was just like respectful. Yeah, I feel I have to say the bit that you land in the trailer was enhanced by your look, the twerking bit, you know, and you're just because the outfit was flaring out and the way you were moving, was very really funny. I mean thank you. I mean you are a performer. but some guys are would look weird if they were in a suit And that's not their vibe Yeah Yeah Millannia has a suit, Seinve is a suit. you know, it works for them. I'm somewhere in the middle. I'm not full hoodie but I rarely wear them It was funny. I was thinking, who's doing this? Tim Dylan? likeike whyy am I falling apart like this And I blame Tim, I blame Shane. I'm like, I try to be like, well, I'm going to a nice dinner because they pay money There's something weird about that You go Well, it's like you're all showing up to the same event. My girls get dressed up for my like theater shows. They Oh, that's nice. It is actually After COVID, I kind of stopped because it was too intense, but I COVID. getting COVID and I started COVID for my dughter Yeah. A lot of the girls, they really do look like me who come to my show. so it's funny because when I try to go in the back of the stage door, security's like, man. This is the stage door. And I dress in a tie for my tour I dress in a tie because that's like my outfit for this tour. I can't come up with new outfits. I'm like this is my uniform. And all the girls show up in ties. So all of us look the same. So security's like, you can't come in. and I'm like, that's me. And he's like, you look like her mayaybe like ten times on tour. they've the security' been like Miss, you can't go in there. Yeah.

Like this woman clearly is no threat. I'm kidd. But No, Nicki and I have a very we have a long backstory. Nicki and I and it's we love each other a lot. Yeah. that's good. Yeah. Well, sometimes you're back. also I' amm a brunette. She's a blonde So . No beef. Yeah Yeah, yeah. Yeah Yeah, oh, Dana Like you put us on a lineup together and it's okay Yeah When someone in show business climbs the ladder and you go in the green room, there's just a little bit of energy like like you Oh, she's. Oh she's famous now, you know, I mean it' just When I was growing up, Nicki's always been famous to me. Yeah. L I because her re When I met her, I was like, I'm obsessed with you. You're incredible, you're everything Like I I feel like everyone else was late to catch on. It just now she's like friends with like Leonard Diaprio and stuff But I feel like when you meet someone before they pop You always have like a soft spot for each other, even though she's been famous. But even like with Shane, I'm always like, I know who you are. I know. I remember you. Oh yeah. I mean, you guys, fame energy is weird Weird It is it is weird, especially you know famous people nonstop in Hollywood With friends like friends who knew you in high school or your family, it starts to tilt things in a way like if someone's making a fuss around you, you know, all that stuff. I mean, it's not first world problems, you know But you know what I mean? I your psychology You go to a sports C in Arizona and I go, Hey, can I sit here they go Hey, whatever King Tut needs clear it away. Oh I'm just getting some potato skins. It's not that big a deal. But o heil These are But it is funny like what people literally change after completely different person. I'm like, oh, you've been through the It's like theyre to Yeah transformation emotionally, physically to carry themselves differently. Everything. I think this is how I do how I think of what happens in that process. It's like I'm, o I'm funny. Oh, I'm making money is funny. I'm really funny. Funny. I'm super funny. I'm Oh wait I'm important Ohoh, that's bad That's bad. That's. I'm or a nutshell This is what he says in his mirror every morning. Yeah She hasn't exposed to. You It's good. You is important. You is good. You' a man You to share Yeah You d you. Whver the shit goes to hide, you d shit Hate us be hated. R right. And loveove us be loving. All right, I have another question for Hannah before we put her out of here. You You might do a show with Amy Pohller at YouTube Bzos together. And weird You've any we alert. I'm getting a I don't recognize the number. That's Tucson for sure. That's the area code I'm from here. I know. Well, I think I know it might be, but I'm not going to answer it. sure you don't want to expose them on the pod right now Who's calling you from rehab? No I There's a good one in Tucson. I think there are a lot of reasons. about they're apologizing for something. They're gonna to stab. Oh yeah they gott to say sorry. Yeah. I'm not sure advice for working professionally with Amy No, Amy's lovely. I don't know her as well as probably Dana, but she's What How did do we get to Amy? I was looking Amy Poler is producing a. Oh, Amy Pohlar. Yeah. Would it be a sitcom? Would it be a reality show? what would it be So it's a scripted comedy right now that we're still trying to crack But like a single camera, you don't know yet. Yeah yeah. C probablyrob People know Paige and I from a reality show, so we have to be kind of smmart with it where it's Not too different, but also not too similar because then it's like just do a curb type thing So we fig very hard to do those shows. I' not saying you couldn do it. I'm saying People say curb. Or if I've even caught myself going, o, I'd like to do something like that Aise, I even know how fucking hard it is because we were around for Larry Sanders show, which was fuc Yes. Yeah Yeah. and how hard We'd been on a little bit, but we knew Shanling And he was like going insane how hard it was Yeah But it comes out great. Yeah, but it looks ostle. easy and effortless. Oh they just fucking had a little banter. I could do that and it's Yeah I know it's hard. sometimes it's just, you know, with Larry David, it's it feels like, you know, like a stand up observation just about awkwardness or the puffy pants or whatever it was, you know, just those little observations. And then he just the main thing he said to us is the only rule on the set is no one tries to be funny No one thinks they're being funny. the way No, no one was performative. They started trying to be funny. It just had to be throwown away more auditions when people be funny. they go, that's enough. get out of here becausecause hyperpolic. you know, they like throwways. They like. You know every read, they're like, we want this grounded Yeah. after ten times. they go, for get out of here. L you don't know that meanans. But that's why I guess the show's fun because you're watching comedians in their like ated day being very small. Yeah, like what it's like if they were just ordering coffee, how they'd act. And that's fascinating actually. But otherise comies can't turn off Well, I don't know how you two are together, but also another thing is sometimes on Larry David, they didn't weren't sure they were doing a take You know, the cameras they got both cameras on and they're kind of kidding. They don't even you can see they're sort of breaking, but is the character breaking or is they breaking? So I don't, you know, there's also it's capturing that And it's just I also this is my first I'm like getting into acting for the first time. And I've never I've had like a couple things, but I'm just going to see if I enjoy it. I think I like it. deep Do you guys like acting as opposed to stand up? Well, there's two kinds of acting. There's acting where some asshole director' controlling you and you sign up for a script you don't truly believe in where you're one of the executive producers and your bossot is Amy Pohler who's really smart and knows it and know It'll probably be a blast. If everyone's on the same sensibility vibe and you know that you're getting what you want. so Yeah. I think're already ninety percent there, you know, like you know You have instincts from doing stand upp and you know what works and what doesn't, and then you're on a reality show. you just know things. that not everyone knows and And then just figure out whatever you guys think. don't find you have a tiny wispy joker and one time in grownus Oh got a few people remember And u We were doing I remember iconic And we had to do one thing where Adam was come out of the closet And of course he doesnt pause it. And he goes, what would you have on you or something? We're like, how about some arrows from arrow Roulette let's say? with some leaves on them And he's say Yeah, okay Let's get some arrows in the props guy goes L learnt have You guys, you don't him in the truck or whatever was. And he goes, no and he go Where do we get him? And he goes, Well, we'd have We're Gloucester, you have drive to Boston. It's like an hour He goes. Okay. And you're like So the guy took off and it So here's going to be minimum two hours down. But you're going sugar. But jokes are so important in movies that you go, if this is a wispy joke, but this isn't even a chance. we have to take it because when you're in a screening watching it, You are dying going, whereere's another joke? Where's another joke? They're starting to get bored. So So it's funny to see all the lights and all this and you're like, hey, what if we try this? they go we'd have to reset the camera and someone like Adam goes. Yeahah, do it It's too important. if this Throww away a look we didn't have before, we need it. And then you don't know what that little thing is that right. You don't know what the fununniest part of that scen will be And you go the cutaway was the funniest far Or you get the arrows and everyone's like, I actually no. Right. I mean, he would ye but there's another store two hours away that Ales. We did Oh we wanted the other arrows. Yeah. water? Let me go back. Look, I never had this experience, but if you are in a situation where it's found moments, I mean, like they would put the camera out of McKay and Will Ferrell, they had the scene, they had the bullet things they needed or any physical comedy. And then it's just like what your husband said to you about being on stage. Don't act, don't try to act. just when the camera's rolling, you get to be very playful and hopefully it'll become clear like, okay, that's the one because There's a magic to you in your eyes Do it for the first time, Discoverred You do have to do p numbers. you have let's go over there. There is dialogue you have to have But in those moments, if you know right in that moment, you're actually just thinking this and then it comes out That's where the magic t You get someone with a different line they were ready for. hard to repplifize something different tell them And then they react, whenateever they would react And then you go Okay, let's move on, but you go well we have it and editing, they're going to go better the way it was or now and then they go, that one was better Have you thought of everything we just said to you just say I literally I'm taking notes. This is so It's nice to hear you guys being like you can do that Beause like I could just see myself trying to make page laugh off script. I mean, Amy's going to be like, can you not do that every line? But that's so fun and that's what comedy is about. Yeah, it's all about just this. and you can tell it when you watch a show, you don't want to get too locked in. I'd say have fun and don't try to ever act. Her job when be get around you that are good. Everyone from the editors are very important keepe on the set to the director. So I have a lot of faith in it. Well, Amy Poher has been she's great in films. She's great in cetch. I mean, so Lean on, Amy Yeahes, it's going to be a real teaching It something to do. It's great. I think sounds like a blast. You got a superstar podcast. you're doing this show. I mean, don't I don't see any chinks in the arma to be honest, An. I've got your gigglies zombies in the airport. Well, you guys are gigglers now A we are What's your net worth right now? Net worth I have a bunch of metrro cards Okay Yeah metro.
