  Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. Not checking whether I brought my sunglasses before driving west at the end of the day? A learning moment. I'm gaining confidence in my driving, but it helps when I'm not blinded by the sun beaming directly into my eyeballs.

• 0:17Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, checking first is handsome, so check Allstate first for an auto quote. It could save you hundreds. You're in good hands with Allstate. Potential savings vary, subject to terms, conditions, and availability. Allstate North American Insurance Company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois.

This is a pretty little episode, and I'm Mae Martin, joined by the ray of sunshine herself. Me, Fortune Vee Mester? It's you and me. That's right. Good to see you. Good to see you, too. I always think about this, you know Jiminy Glick, the Martin Short character?

• 2:10Mae Martin?

  There's a bit where he interviews Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and he goes,

• 2:15Speaker 00

  And here she is, Miss Yum Yum herself.

• 2:20Mae Martin?

  Miss Yum Yum herself.

• 2:21Fortune Feimster?

  Miss Yum Yum. That's, um, yeah, that's a funny, crazy character.

• 2:26Mae Martin?

  I do like Jiminy Glick. I like Martin Short. How are you doing, man? Like your watch?

• 2:32Fortune Feimster?

  Oh, thanks. Hamilton.

• 2:34Mae Martin?

  Very handsome.

• 2:36Fortune Feimster?

  I appreciate it. I'm good. I just flew back into town. I had a show in Atlanta, which was super fun. Um, yeah, so I'm just getting my bearings.

• 2:46Mae Martin?

  Yeah, I'm off tomorrow to New York and trying to figure out what to pack. And not, not my synthesizer. I'm gonna go, I'm gonna pack a light.

• 2:57Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, you gotta do the, the press for your show, right?

• 3:00Mae Martin?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I did my pre, my pre-interviews with, um, Kelly Clarkson Show. Talked a lot about you.

• 3:09Fortune Feimster?

  You feel good about the topics they brought up?

• 3:12Mae Martin?

  I think so. Yeah, I think so. Yeah.

• 3:15Fortune Feimster?

  It goes by so quick.

• 3:17Mae Martin?

  Have you ever used beta blockers?

• 3:19Fortune Feimster?

  I have not.

• 3:20Mae Martin?

  You know, those, they're like, they stop your body from experiencing the symptoms of nervousness or anxiety. And I've tried them once and I felt real lethargic. So I, I don't use them, but I wish I could, cause they, they're supposed to make you just superhuman. You could go on the Kelly Clarkson Show, no problem.

• 3:38Fortune Feimster?

  So are you, is your plan to take a beta blocker?

• 3:41Mae Martin?

  I don't think I want to risk it just in case I'm like, whoa.

• 3:45Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, that would be dicey.

• 3:47Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 3:48Fortune Feimster?

  I think you'll be great. Just be yourself.

• 3:50Mae Martin?

  Okay. Who is that again?

• 3:52Fortune Feimster?

  Okay.

• 3:56Fortune Feimster?

  Well, the new evolved you after having come back from, uh, your experience.

• 4:02Mae Martin?

  The new evolved me bears a striking resemblance to the unevolved me. Does all the same things and is still anxious, but yeah.

• 4:13Fortune Feimster?

  Well, that's all right. You can still be anxious and still be the charming person you are.

• 4:18Mae Martin?

  Thanks, bud. Well, ditto. I, I feel like. There's only so much you can like calm your nervous system and have a bath and do self-care when the world itself is so scary.

• 4:29Fortune Feimster?

  I know. I do enjoy a bath though.

• 4:31Mae Martin?

  Oh, do you?

• 4:32Fortune Feimster?

  I love a bath.

• 4:34Mae Martin?

  Well, I know we've talked about your butthole getting out of the, sorry, getting out of the bath. But yeah, do you, is it, you, you have one every night or what?

• 4:43Fortune Feimster?

  No, not every night. Um, but like once a week, maybe.

• 4:48Mae Martin?

  Yeah. God, it's good.

• 4:49Fortune Feimster?

  My new house has a bathtub. I actually like, my last house, the bathtub was not very comfortable.

• 4:58Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 4:59Fortune Feimster?

  So I would, uh, hot tub it more.

• 5:02Mae Martin?

  Yes.

• 5:03Fortune Feimster?

  Um, I haven't even, um, gotten in this hot tub.

• 5:06Mae Martin?

  You got a hot tub at the new place too?

• 5:08Fortune Feimster?

  I do. It's a small, little small one.

• 5:10Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 5:11Fortune Feimster?

  Uh, but it's, I don't need anything big. It's just me. So,

• 5:15Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 5:16Fortune Feimster?

  I'm hot tubbing over here.

• 5:18Mae Martin?

  Hot tubbing, bathing. You're gonna be just so relaxed, like jelly, just, yeah.

• 5:24Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. So this one, this tub is, is still fairly shallow, but it's more comfortable.

• 5:31Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 5:31Fortune Feimster?

  So I can get in there and I, it's where I'll like learn my lines and stuff.

• 5:35Mae Martin?

  It's a nice image. Would you, have you ever, have you ever used like a bath pillow for your head? That's like, then you're gonna fall asleep. That's all. It's too comfy. Yeah. I used to date someone who would, she'd get in the bath and be like, come get me if I'm not out in like an hour. And she'd always fall asleep.

• 5:53Fortune Feimster?

  An hour is too late.

• 5:55Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 5:57Mae Martin?

  You're floating face down.

• 5:59Fortune Feimster?

  Oof. No, yeah. This one's too small for me to do that, but.

• 6:04Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 6:04Fortune Feimster?

  Anyway.

• 6:05Mae Martin?

  Something's happening.

• 6:06Fortune Feimster?

  To go there.

• 6:07Mae Martin?

  I'm excited to hear some questions from, uh, from these listeners. I keep wanting to send in a fake question, doing a voice and see if anyone notices that it's me.

• 6:17Fortune Feimster?

  Well.

• 6:18Mae Martin?

  Now I've blown it.

• 6:19Fortune Feimster?

  I know. I was like, well, now I might be listening for that.

• 6:21Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 6:22Fortune Feimster?

  All right. Well, let's hear, um, questions that I don't think are from you.

• 6:26Mae Martin?

  I want to do one that's like,

• 6:27Speaker 04

  Hi, this is specifically for Fortune.

• 6:30Fortune Feimster?

  And I know if you do that voice, I won't know it's you.

• 6:33Mae Martin?

  Okay, I'll do a different one.

• 6:34Fortune Feimster?

  But I don't think I would have realized that was you if you had done it without prefacing that.

• 6:39Mae Martin?

  Really? Okay.

• 6:41Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 6:41Mae Martin?

  Okay. All right. Well, let's, uh, well, okay. Let's hear what people are saying.

• 6:47Fortune Feimster?

  Okay. Okay. Okay.

• 6:50Speaker 05

  Hey handsome, this is Ally coming from Chicago and my question is, if you could start like a harmless cult, if there ever were such a thing, um, what would that be?

• 7:03Fortune Feimster?

  A har- you know, some cults might have started out harmless, but then those cult leaders get drunk with power.

• 7:11Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 7:12Fortune Feimster?

  And it always goes south.

• 7:14Mae Martin?

  They always start with like us proposing a solution to a very real problem and it all seems really appealing. And then, yeah, someone's like, but I could marry all of you.

• 7:24Fortune Feimster?

  Cause wasn't that, that one like Wild Wild Country, whatever it was, they wanted to try to help drug addicts and

• 7:31Mae Martin?

  Totally.

• 7:32Fortune Feimster?

  homeless people and then they were like, uh oh.

• 7:36Mae Martin?

  Very quickly, they're like, we're gonna put snakes in people's mailboxes.

• 7:39Fortune Feimster?

  This cult leader's taking lots of money from people. This one's sleeping with this person.

• 7:44Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 7:45Fortune Feimster?

  It always is like, uh, somebody gets drunk with power, starts sleeping with everybody and steals the money.

• 7:50Mae Martin?

  Yep. Yeah, that's pretty much the trajectory. Would you, so if you had a cult, would you, what would your rules be or like the, the goal?

• 7:59Fortune Feimster?

  Well, A, just in, I don't want to be a cult leader. Let me just preface that.

• 8:04Mae Martin?

  Let's make that clear.

• 8:05Fortune Feimster?

  Some people are like, do actually have that desire. I don't want to be in charge of people and their life at all.

• 8:13Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 8:14Fortune Feimster?

  Um, that does not appeal to me in the slightest.

• 8:17Mae Martin?

  Yeah, you got your own life to deal with.

• 8:19Fortune Feimster?

  I got my own life. Listen, I'm happy to give advice. I'm happy to chat with people. I want the best for people. But I ain't, I ain't the one trying to guide you into the, into the light to where you need to go. I'll give, you know, a couple, uh, like I said, things of advice, but man, that's just too much responsibility.

• 8:38Mae Martin?

  Yeah, it would end up just being another thing on your to do list.

• 8:41Fortune Feimster?

  Another thing. I guess if, I mean, a cult of like happy stuff.

• 8:48Mae Martin?

  Yeah, just hanging out.

• 8:49Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, like hanging out, getting massages, taking baths. Not together. I don't need it to be sexual. Um, eating, uh, pad thai.

• 9:00Mae Martin?

  Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, maybe like an, it's connected to like an elephant sanctuary. Remember you wanted to hang with elephants in Thailand?

• 9:09Fortune Feimster?

  That's right. Yeah.

• 9:10Mae Martin?

  I remember. I listened.

• 9:13Fortune Feimster?

  What would yours be? I feel like you would, I think we've talked about it a long time ago, that you would be a good cult leader.

• 9:19Mae Martin?

  Really? I, I don't remember anything we've said.

• 9:23Fortune Feimster?

  I know, this was early days.

• 9:24Mae Martin?

  What occurred to me just then was, this is nefarious, but I think for good. Uh, I would start a cult that specifically appealed to billionaires and far-right world leaders like Trump and, and those people. And I'd lure them in with like, this is an exclusive elite cult where it's like the Illuminati. And then, and then once they're in there, I'd soften their little hearts and, uh, awaken their inner children and, and change their, their minds and their hearts.

• 9:55Fortune Feimster?

  Oh, okay.

• 9:57Mae Martin?

  So it'd be like taking all the, all the scary people fucking up the world.

• 10:01Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 10:02Mae Martin?

  Get, getting them, luring them in by being like, you, you got a gold ring and a nickname. And then I would, uh, I'd be like, and now I'm gonna spoon you and whisper in your ear that, um, you gotta do better.

• 10:14Fortune Feimster?

  And you think that would do the trick?

• 10:17Mae Martin?

  You know? I'm up for giving it a go.

• 10:20Fortune Feimster?

  You might get murdered.

• 10:21Mae Martin?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I don't actually wanna spoon Donald Trump, let's be clear. I just wanna trick everyone into one place and then like.

• 10:30Fortune Feimster?

  And get people to be better.

• 10:32Mae Martin?

  Yeah, like brain, yeah, brainwash them. Make them listen to Bette Midler, "From a Distance."

• 10:38Fortune Feimster?

  From a distance. Then what? What happens there?

• 10:42Mae Martin?

  The world is blue and green and the mountains.

• 10:48Fortune Feimster?

  Something.

• 10:50Mae Martin?

  From a distance, God is watching us.

• 10:55Fortune Feimster?

  God is watching us.

• 10:56Mae Martin?

  God is watching us.

• 10:59Fortune Feimster?

  God is watching us.

• 11:03Fortune Feimster?

  From a distance.

• 11:05Mae Martin?

  I, my grade five birthday party invited over about half the class and they all sat underneath the ping pong table in my parents' granny basement and I put on Bette Midler and I sung in my best voice the entire, like multiple songs and they had to listen and so maybe I should be a cult leader because I was a bossy kid.

• 11:26Fortune Feimster?

  You got people to do random stuff for sure.

• 11:29Mae Martin?

  They were like, this is the worst birthday party I've ever been to.

• 11:32Fortune Feimster?

  Well, all right. Well, listen, in this world of handsome questions, anything, it can be anything you want. So your cult can be the thing that you said.

• 11:42Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 11:42Fortune Feimster?

  Um, mine, and it will just assume it works.

• 11:46Mae Martin?

  Yes.

• 11:47Fortune Feimster?

  And then mine will just be everyone's happy getting massages and eating pad thai.

• 11:51Mae Martin?

  Having baths.

• 11:52Fortune Feimster?

  We're not trying to accomplish anything.

• 11:54Mae Martin?

  Yeah, that's kind of nice. That's refreshing. Yeah, just relaxation.

• 11:58Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 11:59Mae Martin?

  Should we hear what Ali's answer is?

• 12:00Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 12:01Speaker 05

  I like to say I've already started it. Um, I would start a tap dance cult. I'm always recruiting people to my tap class, which is in Chicago. So when you're in Chicago and you really want to take some tap lessons, come join me. Um, but I've been recruiting people who maybe I've met, uh, Metwork or other places who used to tap dance and haven't in a long time. So they'll come back to tap class. Um, and then, I don't know, I think the, the whole goal of the cult is that, um, tap dance brings joy and just, just come to, come put on your tap shoes, take a class, um, learn about tap dance, get in the tap

• 12:43Speaker 05

  community and it's pretty, it's pretty harmless there. All right. Thanks.

• 12:48Mae Martin?

  I like that. I mean, Ali says it brings joy, but I do remember when we all tried to tap dance, um, I found it wildly frustrating because I wanted to be good at it and there's like a big gap between my. My, my want and my ability.

• 13:04Fortune Feimster?

  It's definitely harder. No, it looks hard, but it also is hard.

• 13:08Mae Martin?

  It's hard. It's hard. You're using all different parts of your foot.

• 13:12Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, we were sweating up a storm when we did it at our live show.

• 13:16Mae Martin?

  We really were. Yeah. Also, I can just see the Netflix documentary about like, it started like a harmless tap dance cult. And then there's footage of like writhing naked people, but they got their tap shoes on still and they're all tapping.

• 13:28Fortune Feimster?

  Stomping on people.

• 13:29Mae Martin?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 13:37Fortune Feimster?

  I love it. All right. Let's hear another one.

• 13:40Speaker 06

  Hello, Tig, May and Fortune, or whatever combination of the two of you is here today. My name is Sarah and I'm calling in from Washington DC. And I've been particularly moved recently by you all talking about your families and especially Tig. You're just passionate about your kids and all that you say about them. And so I thought maybe you could play a game that my dad used to do with my sister and I.

• 14:14Speaker 06

  Kind of at a bedtime tuck in situation. He worked a lot and so he would come in and we would pick a number between like seven and his current age and then he would tell us a story from that age. So maybe you could give numbers to each other and tell a story from that age. I'm looking forward to hearing what you guys have to say. And yeah, just love this podcast. Listen every week and it's very soothing. Especially where I live.

• 14:51Fortune Feimster?

  Huh. Not heard of this game of you.

• 14:53Mae Martin?

  No, I like a game and I like that. I'll get, I'll throw an age at you.

• 14:57Fortune Feimster?

  Okay.

• 14:59Mae Martin?

  Thirty-eight.

• 15:00Fortune Feimster?

  Thirty-eight and I'm supposed to tell you a story of something that happened when I was thirty-eight?

• 15:05Mae Martin?

  Yeah, because I'm thirty-eight, aren't I? Or am I thirty-nine?

• 15:08Fortune Feimster?

  I don't know.

• 15:09Mae Martin?

  I think I'm thirty-eight. Yeah, I'm thirty-eight.

• 15:12Fortune Feimster?

  Thirty eight, gosh, okay, that would have been pre-COVID. I unfortunately live my life lately by what specials or what tour I put out. That makes sense. What tour I went on, what special I put out. So that would have been, um, pre-Sweet and Salty,

• 15:33Fortune Feimster?

  uh, which came out, uh, in COVID. So I was still doing clubs. Okay. But you know, it's not like your childhood, we were like, I specifically remember when I was 12, we did this thing. Like when you're an adult, everything like becomes a blur unless you have milestones. Like I got married or I got engaged, I got this. Uh, Jax and I were together a couple of years then. Um, so I honestly. Do you remember your 30th birthday? My 30th? Thirty eighth. Thirty eighth. Yeah. I do not. Okay. Because we were never big into like parties, so we never did much for our birthdays. I did a lot more for my birthday when I was single.

• 16:18Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. I remember my 30th birthday and my 35th birthday. Okay, are we switching gears? We're switching gears. Okay, let's say 35th, 35th. 35th. Yeah. Okay, um, that, so when I turned 35, I had just met Jax, uh, like three days before, four days before. Okay. We obviously liked each other and we're kind of like seeing, um, how we, like we hung out in Chicago and then, um, spent time getting to know each other over text. She was in Italy for like three weeks. Um, so I was, uh, like, oh, I like this person, but I'm still like living my life. And I had a big 35th birthday party that I threw her and myself

• 17:04Fortune Feimster?

  at the gay country western bar in LA called Oil Can Harry's. Yes. And it was super fun. Um, it was my last party as a single woman. Not that I did anything on my birthday that was. Um, uh, indicated that I was single, but um, I had my friends, uh, burlesque troupe do a fun dance. Oh, fun. And it was hot as balls because it was summertime and this bar did not have air conditioning. Um, and I did not take that into account. So everyone had a blast, but was like, just every picture, everyone's face is red and just pouring sweat. That's so fun though.

• 17:47Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, but it was such a blast. Ordered a bunch of pizza and cupcakes and. Did you dance? Yeah. Oh yeah. We had a really great DJ, um, that, uh, play, plays like all the, um, like old school stuff, like nineties and stuff. So like everybody was dancing like crazy and, um, so yeah, that, that birthday felt kind of like my last, like we're, the last time I felt young. Oh my God, fortune. Okay. This year we're having a party.

• 18:19Fortune Feimster?

  Well, I just in July I had a birthday and I did absolutely nothing. No, we're. It's not getting better. It can't happen again like that. Okay. Next, next year I'll have to be in a better, I was not in a great space, I guess. We'll do a big party next year. Yeah. Cause I was, I was leaving my life. I had left my life as a married person, going into my life as a single person again. And it, there's a shift there where you haven't really seen a lot of your friends for a long time. Cause they just got so used to you being in a couple and you, or me touring and being unavailable. Like I still have those friends and those friends still love me, but you're just not in that rotation with them. Yeah.

• 19:01Fortune Feimster?

  Like you were when you were single. So I just was in a very transitional year. Yeah. And, and those milestones are tough after, after breakups too. It's, yeah. So yeah, there you go. Thirty-five for me. Let's see for you. Oh, huh huh huh. What about your 30th?

• 19:21Mae Martin?

  Well, I had a crazy party for my 30th in London. I was living in London and I was too drunk and trying to make everyone play Spin the Bottle and I did give a handjob in the bathroom.

• 19:38Fortune Feimster?

  Whoa.

• 19:39Mae Martin?

  To my friend.

• 19:41Fortune Feimster?

  Your friend?

• 19:42Mae Martin?

  Well, I mean, we'd been hooking up, but.

• 19:44Fortune Feimster?

  Oh, okay. I thought your friend was just like, happy birthday. Like, let me try to do a British accent. My happy birthday. No, that's not good. That's Australian.

• 19:55Mae Martin?

  But it was.

• 19:56Fortune Feimster?

  Why don't you give it a wank?

• 19:58Mae Martin?

  Wow.

• 19:59Fortune Feimster?

  That's your birthday present.

• 20:01Mae Martin?

  Those were the magic words. That's all you had to say. But I remember it was, I was just like really gung ho. But well, we went to make out in the bathroom and I just remember being, being like, really, and there's a whole lineup for the bathroom. And he was kind of like, let's not, not here.

• 20:15Fortune Feimster?

  Well, also, it's your birthday. Why are you giving handjobs? You should be getting something.

• 20:20Mae Martin?

  It's the gift. It's a gift for me, too.

• 20:23Fortune Feimster?

  Really? Okay.

• 20:24Mae Martin?

  No, I don't know. I don't know what I was doing, but I was, it was a really fun party for sure.

• 20:29Fortune Feimster?

  Oh, that's great.

• 20:31Mae Martin?

  Yeah. And then I found out that he slept with my friend that night. So like, he had a great night.

• 20:37Fortune Feimster?

  Were you upset about that or it was fine?

• 20:39Mae Martin?

  I think it was fine. Yeah.

• 20:41Fortune Feimster?

  Okay. Look at you. Just free love. Free love. Everybody gets some.

• 20:45Mae Martin?

  Those are the days.

• 20:49Mae Martin?

  Well, Sarah, thank you so much for the question. We like that game, even though it kind of brought into focus for us that the last decade has been a blur of non-events, but.

• 21:00Fortune Feimster?

  I know. I'm going to start making some new memories.

• 21:02Mae Martin?

  Or just keep it a little journal or something. I want to, I want to get more fastidious about that.

• 21:07Fortune Feimster?

  True. Maybe, maybe fun things have happened and I've just gotten older and I forgot about them.

• 21:12Mae Martin?

  A billion percent fun things have happened.

  I had a, I had a lot of fun on, uh, after my show in Atlanta.

• 21:22Mae Martin?

  Oh, yeah.

• 21:22Fortune Feimster?

  I had some good friends that, uh, that happened to be, uh, well, some that lived there and happened to be in town. And they came backstage and I had, um, stuff to make old fashions with.

• 21:35Mae Martin?

  Oh, yeah.

• 21:35Fortune Feimster?

  And, um, we just, and it was Zach's birthday, so we like drank old fashions and ate cake and, and for like a couple hours. And it just ended up being really lovely.

• 21:45Mae Martin?

  They didn't kick you out of the dressing room because that's my favorite when they let you stay and hang. Cause I, you don't want to go to a bar and go, you lose people in the traveling from point A to point B.

• 21:56Fortune Feimster?

  I know, we, which we tried to go to a gay bar for like 30 minutes and then we're like, what are we doing? We're tired and, um, and we did lose people in that transition, but, uh, it all worked out. It was, well, yeah, the show was, or actually it was about an hour and a half backstage. I never like to go too late and be rude.

• 22:14Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 22:14Fortune Feimster?

  But, but then other times they're like, oh, people stay here till like two in the morning. I'm like, I would never do that. This was like till 11:30.

• 22:21Mae Martin?

  Yeah.

• 22:22Fortune Feimster?

  And yeah, it just was like, everyone was laughing and there was a couple of groups of people that didn't know each other. And they were all, by the time I came back from my meet and greet, you know, chatting and drinking and.
