2:27 Fortune Feimster? That's right. It's your pal Fortune and I'm joined by my pal.
2:31 Mae Martin? May.
2:34 Mae Martin? It's weird that my name is May.
2:36 Fortune Feimster? Is it?
2:37 Mae Martin? Does it seem right? It does kind of in a way.
2:40 Fortune Feimster? I like the, you have the alliteration like I have.
2:43 Mae Martin? Yeah, I love an alliteration, yeah.
2:46 Fortune Feimster? Me too.
2:47 Mae Martin? What's Biggie's last name? Feimster?
2:48 Fortune Feimster? I say it is.
2:52 Fortune Feimster? Jack thinks it's Smith, but we, when he's with me, uh, I say to him, you're a Feimster. I don't know if she says that to, that he's a Smith, but Biggie Feimster is a cool name too.
3:05 Mae Martin? Yeah, Biggie Feimster is cool.
3:06 Fortune Feimster? Maybe it's hyphen.
3:08 Mae Martin? Yeah, he can talk about that in therapy.
3:10 Fortune Feimster? Yeah.
3:11 Mae Martin? His identity.
3:12 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, I think May's a fun name.
3:14 Mae Martin? I think so too. Yeah, yeah. I wish you could shorten it to a nickname. You can only lengthen it to like.
3:19 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, because May as is is a shorter name.
3:23 Mae Martin? Yeah, like you could just do mm.
3:25 Fortune Feimster? Mm. I have heard people refer to you as mm.
3:30 Mae Martin? Really?
3:33 Mae Martin? I've heard people refer to you as fuck.
3:38 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, we just, uh, we'll talk about it in our, um, with Tig, but we had our, uh, two live shows back to back and there was a lot of screaming for May.
3:47 Mae Martin? Well, ditto. Yeah, yeah. I can't wait to recap our adventures.
3:52 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, those were pretty incredible.
3:54 Mae Martin? It was super fun.
3:55 Fortune Feimster? May and I went to breakfast together.
3:57 Mae Martin? Oh, we did. We had a lovely, it took a long time to come.
4:00 Fortune Feimster? Yeah.
4:00 Mae Martin? The food.
4:01 Fortune Feimster? Oh, yeah.
4:02 Mae Martin? But not to be negative, but
4:04 Fortune Feimster? It took a long time to come.
4:08 Mae Martin? Cause you know, like diner, you expect it's gonna be a quick, a quick delivery.
4:13 Fortune Feimster? Yeah.
4:14 Mae Martin? The coffee was quick.
4:15 Fortune Feimster? That was true, but we got to chat and catch up and, and catch each other up to speed on what's going on in life.
4:22 Mae Martin? Yeah, I liked that a lot.
4:24 Fortune Feimster? It was a nice bonding experience.
4:26 Mae Martin? You know, the next step, you gotta come over.
4:28 Fortune Feimster? I know, I gotta see that pad.
4:30 Mae Martin? Yeah, man, I'm like, I mean, I only really have people over to, to do painting and get weird. So if you're up for some painting.
4:38 Fortune Feimster? I'm not a good painter, but I'm up for any experience.
4:42 Mae Martin? Great.
4:46 Mae Martin? I'm gonna get a massage tonight.
4:48 Fortune Feimster? You are?
4:48 Mae Martin? Yeah, cause we got back from traveling and I've been like pumping iron, lifting weights. So I'm gonna, I'm gonna go get a nice massage at the K Spa.
4:57 Fortune Feimster? That's great. Oh, the Korean spa. So they're gonna
5:01 Mae Martin? Yeah.
5:01 Fortune Feimster? Wash all the crevices.
5:03 Mae Martin? Yeah. And guess what the masseuse's name is who I really love there?
5:07 Fortune Feimster? What?
5:07 Mae Martin? May.
5:09 Fortune Feimster? Oh.
5:10 Mae Martin? Yeah.
5:11 Fortune Feimster? Some May on May action.
5:12 Mae Martin? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's all I've ever wanted.
5:15 Fortune Feimster? I, I would go to the Korean spa, but I don't wanna be in the nude.
5:19 Mae Martin? Yeah.
5:19 Fortune Feimster? And everyone there's in the nude.
5:21 Mae Martin? Yeah, that's true. Well, they have like private massage rooms, but they are in the nude. You'd have to get your gems out.
5:26 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, cause people
5:27 Mae Martin? And your butthole.
5:28 Fortune Feimster? Because the, for those of you who don't know, the Korean spa is like a lot of different rooms and there's some steam rooms, right? And like rooms with water and you're getting washed off and scrubbed down and
5:39 Mae Martin? Yeah, the most intense room is, uh, an ice room. That's like an ice sauna that I, I love it a lot. It's very punishing, but you know, I like that.
5:48 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, you like a little danger with your massage.
5:51 Mae Martin? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't wanna be too relaxed.
5:54 Fortune Feimster? I love a massage. I don't know if the, I have to go back on the road again right away on Wednesday. But I was proud of myself. I worked out four days in a row on, while on tour.
6:04 Mae Martin? Yes, dude.
6:05 Fortune Feimster? Which is huge for me.
6:07 Mae Martin? Yeah.
6:08 Fortune Feimster? I am determined on this tour to be much healthier than I was on my last tour.
6:14 Mae Martin? Yeah.
6:15 Fortune Feimster? I, uh, I'm down 40 pounds and I'm gonna keep it going. Yeah. Then my last tour was not, not healthy. So every hotel I went to the gym.
6:24 Mae Martin? Yes.
6:25 Fortune Feimster? Then when I got home, I treaded water. Uh, which is my thing now.
6:29 Mae Martin? Yeah.
6:31 Fortune Feimster? And um, yeah, I feel really um, hopeful about the balance of this tour.
6:37 Mae Martin? Yeah, great. My thing is uh, like on tour is um, my phone, like just getting back to the hotel room. I'm like, I'll spend, yeah, an hour and a half on my phone before bed.
6:47 Fortune Feimster? Scrolling, yeah.
6:48 Mae Martin? Yeah, and just looking at like pictures people have tagged from the shows and people's comments. And I just get sucked into a vortex.
6:55 Fortune Feimster? Well, it's hard to come down off that high, right? You have this show with all that energy and then you get back to your hotel and you're kind of having to slowly in increments come down from that.
7:04 Mae Martin? Yeah.
7:05 Fortune Feimster? So, I get it. Some, some scrolling and looking at pics and be like, oh, that was fun. Look at what we did.
7:11 Mae Martin? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And sometimes people will tag you in a pic that is so unflattering and then you don't reshoot, you don't repost those.
7:18 Fortune Feimster? Oh, fuckin' my life. I have some pretty unflattering angles.
7:25 Fortune Feimster? Um, well, good times. Let's uh, should we get some questions?
7:27 Mae Martin? Yeah, let's hear from people.
7:29 Speaker 00 Hello, May, Tig and Fortune, in absolutely no particular order. You're all fabulous. My name is Sebi and I live in Austin, Texas. Thank you all for coming. Um, what a treat. My question for you is, I just got a little cat that showed up at my door, couldn't find its home, and I'm looking to name it. It is white and orange, very affectionate, currently purring, if you can hear.
8:01 Fortune Feimster? I can't hear.
8:02 Speaker 00 If not, that's a bummer for you.
8:04 Mae Martin? Yeah, I couldn't hear it.
8:05 Speaker 00 But I want to know what to name it. And obviously, my first choice is Handsome. But I'm also thinking about naming him Calsifer from the Studio Ghibli Howl's Moving Castle, who, you know, is a little fire flame.
8:21 Speaker 00 Um, so that's my answer, but I'm curious what yours is.
8:25 Mae Martin? Handsome's a great name for an animal.
8:27 Fortune Feimster? It is.
8:29 Mae Martin? Cause you'd go morning handsome.
8:31 Fortune Feimster? Don't cats, aren't cats like known for roaming around? What, do we think this is someone's cat?
8:40 Mae Martin? Yeah, yeah. I like, I like the idea of, like, I like hu- human names for cats, like Bruce or something, you know?
8:47 Fortune Feimster? Oh, yeah.
8:48 Mae Martin? Diane.
8:49 Fortune Feimster? I'm gonna go with the name Tiger.
8:51 Mae Martin? Okay, yeah, you went, this is pretty standard orange, am I not to judge? Not to judge, but.
8:57 Fortune Feimster? I'm cool, but like exactly what I see.
9:00 Mae Martin? Yeah, Tiger. Yeah, I don't, I don't mind that. What about, um?
9:04 Fortune Feimster? Or Tigre.
9:05 Mae Martin? Oh, Tigre's good. What about, yeah, I'm gonna go Bruce or Diane, but I'm gonna stick with that.
9:12 Fortune Feimster? Bruce or Diane, alright.
9:14 Mae Martin? But I actually, I think, I think handsome's a really good, really good name. Should we hear another one though?
9:19 Fortune Feimster? Yeah.
9:20 Speaker 04 Hi, Handsoms. I love you all. I think you're all amazing. Uh, my name is Ryanne and I'm calling from New Hampshire. And I made it to Toronto to see your live show with one of my besties. So that's super fun. But what I wanted to ask you was, what do you think is your best impression of a person? Or a creature?
9:49 Mae Martin? Wow, that's great.
9:51 Fortune Feimster? Your best impression of a, of a person? Just any person?
9:55 Mae Martin? Yeah, like an impression, like your Jennifer Coolidge is very strong.
9:59 Fortune Feimster? I want a hot dog real bad.
10:02 Mae Martin? Yeah, that, yeah. What else have you got?
10:05 Fortune Feimster? A person or a creature?
10:07 Mae Martin? I've got, um, well, I like to do Mr. Tumnus from Narnia. You know, he's like a, he's got, he's like half deer. Maybe deer from the, from the waist down and then men. But I can't really do it without standing up and doing the whole movement. But he's like, Lucy Pevancy. I don't know. I really want to play Mr. Tumnus in the new, the Greta Gerwig, Narnia. And I told my agents, hey, this is, can you reach out to Greta Gerwig and tell her I really want to play Mr. Tumnus? And they were like, and then like a week later, I was like, hey, did you do that? And they were like, oh, no, that's outrageous.
10:45 Fortune Feimster? You're like, I need you to believe in me.
10:47 Mae Martin? I know. I used to do all my teachers and stuff in school and,
10:51 Fortune Feimster? Yeah.
10:51 Mae Martin? but like celebs, like, I don't know, I really want to work on the, um, all the boys from Love on the Spectrum.
10:58 Fortune Feimster? Oh, yeah. I just saw someone on TikTok doing their, uh, uh, impression. It was pretty spot on.
11:04 Mae Martin? I think I saw the same one.
11:06 Fortune Feimster? Connor's voice is, don't speak to me about that, mother. I know what it's like to live that way.
11:18 Mae Martin? That's a good Connor. And, and James is sort of like, yes, uh, uh, someone, is it, is it possible that, uh, we could, yeah.
11:29 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, yeah. And Tanner's like, I am a good guy, mom. I am a good guy, mom. Right? That is, yeah, yeah, Kelly, yeah, Kelly. Yeah. I, I like ducks too.
11:39 Mae Martin? That's good. What kind of animals do you like, Kelly? Do you like dogs? Do you like elephants? Do you like, yeah, see, this is pretty good.
11:45 Fortune Feimster? I met Tanner in New York, uh, last season. He and I both were doing the Kelly Clarkson Show. And he was so awesome. Uh, we took a video together and then he and his mom and his sister Midge came to my standup show.
11:58 Mae Martin? No way.
11:59 Fortune Feimster? At the Beacon, yeah. And they were so great. I think it's probably a little overwhelming for him because you know, it's like 3,000 people.
12:07 Mae Martin? Yeah.
12:07 Fortune Feimster? In that theater and a lot of people, he's very recognizable. So I think,
12:11 Mae Martin? Oh, my God.
12:11 Fortune Feimster? it was like a stimulation overload for him, but he was so cute and sweet and his family, like that show, if anyone's watched Love on the Spectrum, I always tell people to watch it. I, uh, think it's just such a pure. Beautiful show about people who just wanna love and be loved and it's like, kinda takes you back to what dating and love should be.
12:35 Mae Martin? Yeah, yeah.
12:36 Fortune Feimster? Just like-
12:36 Mae Martin? So honest with each other.
12:38 Fortune Feimster? Getting a kiss is like the greatest thing in life. They've not had one when seeing Connor. Did you see the episode where Connor got his first kiss?
12:46 Mae Martin? Yeah.
12:47 Fortune Feimster? He's like, hand was shaking and he was like-
12:49 Mae Martin? It was incredible, yeah.
12:50 Fortune Feimster? I mean, you're like, that's what it's supposed to be like.
12:53 Mae Martin? Totally.
12:53 Fortune Feimster? This is like pure thing and-
12:55 Mae Martin? I think that show has really made a lot of people sort of um, raise their standards of what they're looking for. Just like kindness and openness and yeah.
13:05 Fortune Feimster? And they are very honest. If they don't like someone, they're like, can I just tell you, I'm, I just wanna be friends. And they're like, okay.
13:11 Mae Martin? Yeah, yeah.
13:12 Fortune Feimster? And there's no games. It's like really amazing to watch. But I was saying their families are so wonderful too, like-
13:20 Mae Martin? Totally.
13:20 Fortune Feimster? The, the support these kids have on that show is, is really inspiring to watch.
13:26 Mae Martin? I know. We should um, definitely try and get a question from one of the cast. That would be great.
13:31 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, I could probably reach out to Tanner's mom.
13:33 Mae Martin? Oh my god, yeah. That's amazing. Um, so those are our impressions. Leah, let's hear uh, Rian's answer.
13:40 Fortune Feimster? Oh, I do have, I have a made up impression from Pam the mall walker.
13:44 Mae Martin? Yeah, let's hear it.
13:44 Fortune Feimster? It's a character I created. Hello, I am Pam the mall walker. I have my fanny pack on and I am ready for treats.
13:59 Mae Martin? Okay, I love Pam. And she just walks the mall?
14:03 Fortune Feimster? She walks and she has a fanny pack and she gets, she puts little treats in her fanny pack and she goes on her walks.
14:09 Mae Martin? Yeah, great. I actually do have one more.
14:12 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, give it to us.
14:13 Mae Martin? Uh, one time I was on the subway in London and there was this woman in her 50s and she, she was running to try to make the train. And she, she ran in and she just made it and the doors closed, but it was kinda hectic when she made it. Like she kinda stumbled in and then she kinda looked around and she goes, Jesus. And I think about it all the time. Jesus.
14:42 Mae Martin? Um, yeah. What has Rian got for us?
14:45 Speaker 04 Um, when it comes to me, my best impression of a creature is actually of ET. And I can sound pretty much like him. So this is an example.
15:01 Mae Martin? ET phone home. ET loves handsome.
15:08 Fortune Feimster? Love you guys. Wow.
15:11 Mae Martin? That was so much better than I expected.
15:13 Fortune Feimster? That was really good.
15:15 Mae Martin? Holy shit, Rian. That's, you gotta go on the road with that.
15:19 Fortune Feimster? It is fun when people have these like little random talents.
15:23 Mae Martin? Yeah. I mean, I can do a thing where it sounds like there's a little man in my throat.
15:27 Fortune Feimster? Let's hear it.
15:28 Mae Martin? And I do it with my mouth closed, almost like a ventriloquist thing. Okay, ready?
15:33 Fortune Feimster? Mm hmm.
15:33 Mae Martin? I can only say one sentence.
15:35 Fortune Feimster? Okay.
15:36 Mae Martin? Okay. I like it. I like it. I like it.
15:45 Mae Martin? I don't know.
15:45 Fortune Feimster? The visual of that was pretty great.
15:51 Fortune Feimster? Wow.
15:52 Mae Martin? I mean, it's crazy that I'm single, right?
15:55 Fortune Feimster? Dude, you better get snatched up soon.
15:57 Mae Martin? I know. Do we have time for one more? Let's do another.
16:00 Fortune Feimster? Yeah.
16:01 Speaker 05 Hi, Tig. Hi, Mary. Hi, Fortune. My name is Morgan. I'm from Nashville, Tennessee. I just saw y'all at the Ryman and it was such a fun show. You guys did awesome. My question for you all is, what is your favorite household appliance sound?
16:19 Fortune Feimster? By the way, all of our question askers today came to one of our live shows. That's pretty cool.
16:24 Mae Martin? Yeah, very cool. Yeah.
16:26 Fortune Feimster? We'll have to do some more in the future. We don't have anything lined up right now, but those were so fun. We'll have to look into that.
16:32 Mae Martin? Yeah. Okay, my one is, and I don't know if this is a phenomenon in America that I was unfamiliar with, but um, the past two places I've lived, the laundry machine, when it is done, plays a song that is so long that, so this is, this is it.
16:51 Fortune Feimster? Okay.
17:00 Mae Martin? It still goes on.
17:01 Fortune Feimster? Whoa.
17:02 Mae Martin? So I've got to make a video of it. It's crazy, but that's my favorite thing. It's a whole little dance break every time I laund-
17:09 Fortune Feimster? My mom has one of those. It's like
17:13 Fortune Feimster? but it's much shorter.
17:15 Mae Martin? It's crazy though.
17:16 Fortune Feimster? I don't know that that's the specific tune. I've only heard it, you know, a couple of times a year, but it's something-
17:23 Mae Martin? You should be able to program your laundry machine, you know, with the sound of your choice. So I could get, for instance, Rianne doing her ET. So every time my laundry's done, it's like, ET.
17:36 Fortune Feimster? I think you should be able to program your washing machine to sing, "I've been waiting for some clothes like you." And it would make you want to do laundry more.
17:51 Fortune Feimster? You guys don't see what's into that. Whatever. I'm gonna program my washing machine to do that.
17:57 Mae Martin? I don't know that song.
17:58 Fortune Feimster? "I've been waiting for a girl like you."
18:00 Mae Martin? Oh, no.
18:01 Fortune Feimster? "I've been waiting for a girl like you."
18:04 Mae Martin? I don't know why I don't know-
18:05 Fortune Feimster? You still don't know that?
18:06 Mae Martin? No, but-
18:07 Fortune Feimster? Well, look it up.
18:09 Mae Martin? I will be.
18:10 Fortune Feimster? It'll blow your mind. Well, if I sing it and you don't like it, you're not, it's not gonna get much better.
18:15 Mae Martin? Yeah, yeah. You're really the, you're like Kelly Clarkson.
18:20 Fortune Feimster? I'm just like Kelly Clarkson, who by the way, drove, did we talk about that? Drove the lesbians wild.
18:26 Mae Martin? Oh, by doing the Chapel Rhone song?
18:29 Fortune Feimster? No, but well, all the songs Kelly does drives the lesbians wild, but in particular, Kelly sang that song, "Just as good as on a vacation far away."
18:42 Fortune Feimster? Some come up, take something, come over, talk it over. There's so much that I wanna say. You know I like my girls a little bit older. And then winked.
18:55 Mae Martin? Whoa.
18:56 Fortune Feimster? When she sang that.
18:57 Mae Martin? Okay, so the wink was what really?
18:59 Fortune Feimster? So the, yeah, it's the, it's called Your Love by The Outfield. And the lesbians lost their damn minds.
19:09 Mae Martin? Listen, we all just take what we can get and we get real excited.
19:13 Fortune Feimster? I think you should look up the video and see the wink. And Kelly later got asked about it. And she just says, said, oh, I wink in my song, a lot in my songs. And people were like, do you?
19:26 Mae Martin? Yeah.
19:27 Fortune Feimster? That felt deliberate.
19:28 Mae Martin? Yeah, she should own the wink. I have a real wink fetish. Like I, people who can confidently wink, I love. So I don't know if it, it might be dangerous for me to watch this.
19:38 Fortune Feimster? You will, I mean, Kelly's voice.
19:41 Mae Martin? It's crazy.
19:41 Fortune Feimster? Already is just the greatest thing on earth.
19:45 Mae Martin? You know why I like it? It's effortless. It's like even, cause even Lady Gaga, even, you know, Alicia Keys, like they're, they're amazing voices, but they're pushing. Kelly, it's like effortless. It's like that whole range is just sitting there for her and she.
19:58 Fortune Feimster? Voice of an angel. And I've been a Kelly stan from day one, long before all these TikTokers got on board.
20:06 Mae Martin? Yeah.
20:06 Fortune Feimster? My entire four years on Chelsea Lately was at different times, me giving a plea to Kelly Clarkson to come on the show. And she never did. And then I ran into her the year after Chelsea Lately was done. And I said, I used to talk about you all the time. She goes, I know.
20:25 Mae Martin? Oh my God. She's like, I know, and I had no impulse to reach out.
20:29 Fortune Feimster? I know, and I did nothing. But we're friends now. I've done her show 10 times, more than anybody.
20:35 Mae Martin? 10 times, holy shit.
20:36 Fortune Feimster? 10 times I've done the Kelly Clarkson show. They gave me a jacket at, on my fifth time.
20:41 Mae Martin? Whoa.
20:42 Fortune Feimster? From The Voice, it was a tiny jacket. I don't get to go on there as much now that it's in New York, but she asked a handsome question too.
20:50 Mae Martin? Oh yeah, I know. Yeah.
20:51 Fortune Feimster? So we stan.
20:53 Mae Martin? We stan.
20:53 Fortune Feimster? Our gal Kelly, and don't you be driving those lesbians wild, Kelly, with your twinks.
20:59 Mae Martin? I'm gonna watch that as soon as we're done here.
21:01 Fortune Feimster? It's pretty, it's pretty great.
21:03 Mae Martin? Should we hear Morgan?
21:04 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, let's hear Morgan's answer.
21:05 Speaker 05 So my favorite household appliance sound used to be the running dishwasher. It signaled the end of a long day and it just felt like I had all my ducks in a row. But it has recently changed. My favorite sound is that of the garage door opening at the end of the day because it means my husband has come home from work. And my son, whenever he hears it, just lights up. Because he knows daddy's home and he's about to get to hug him and play with him. And it's just so sweet and it just makes me feel really happy when I hear it.
21:48 Speaker 05 So yeah, I can't wait to hear y'all's answers. Thank you so much.
21:52 Fortune Feimster? That's so great.
21:53 Mae Martin? I totally forgot that that was the question we were answering.
21:55 Fortune Feimster? I, I didn't even answer it.
21:57 Mae Martin? Oh yeah, sorry, yeah.
21:59 Fortune Feimster? Um, mine would be the vacuum, only because similar to her, it ignites other responses that make me happy. And the vacuum makes Biggie bark and he runs over to it and is like
22:17 Fortune Feimster? like he's fighting it. And I think it's the cutest thing in the world. And so sometimes I, uh, will run the vacuum and push it near him. Just to get him to go.
22:29 Mae Martin? Well, listen, he's pretty low key the rest of the time.
22:33 Fortune Feimster? Anything that amps, amps, amps him up is, is fun to watch.
22:37 Mae Martin? Well, this has been an absolute delight.
22:39 Fortune Feimster? What a delight. Such a treat. I always like, uh, answering questions from our fans. We do that at our live show as well.
22:46 Mae Martin? Yeah, it's fun. People in the audience, like.
22:49 Fortune Feimster? Yeah. And it really does ensue some pretty crazy times.
22:53 Mae Martin? Yeah.
22:54 Fortune Feimster? At the end of our Austin show, we had to sing a song together and what a treat that was.
22:59 Mae Martin? Oh, yeah, I, I went weird there. I could see that that made you sad. We were like improvising a song that was like, "Thanks so much, Austin. We love you." And then it was my turn and I was like, "Sometimes I feel so lonely, I want to die," or something. But I didn't even mean that. It's just, for some reason, I think song, I think emotions.
23:19 Fortune Feimster? You want to go, you want to emote?
23:20 Mae Martin? Yeah.
23:21 Fortune Feimster? And then I was like, "Okay," and then I took over. I was like, "Thanks for coming to our show. Keep it handsome."
23:29 Mae Martin? Yeah, you rescued it. Yeah.
23:31 Fortune Feimster? But that's what, we all bring something different to the table and that's the beauty of it.
23:35 Mae Martin? Yeah, exactly. But please keep sending your questions in to us. You can go to speakpipe.com/handsomepod. We want to hear from you. We want to hear your impressions.
23:44 Fortune Feimster? And keep listening to our, our regular episode and telling your friends about the pod. Come see me on tour. I'm on a, a huge tour that's going to a lot of places. Uh, May, are you adding any more shows for music or?
23:58 Mae Martin? I am, but I don't know them yet, but I'm, I am. And in June, I'm going to be hitting three cities that I've never played music in. It's going to be fun.
24:07 Fortune Feimster? Nice. Well, we're keeping busy, uh, but we appreciate, uh, you guys listening.
24:13 Mae Martin? Yeah, we love you a lot.
24:15 Fortune Feimster? Yeah, we do love you a lot.
24:16 Mae Martin? Yeah, we love you a lot.
24:17 Fortune Feimster? We love you a lot.
24:18 Mae Martin? Even though sometimes we get so lonely.
24:19 Fortune Feimster? Don't talk to me about love, mom. I know what it is.
24:28 Mae Martin? Um, I guess all that remains is to keep it pretty handsome.
