  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.

  And everyone was like, all the romance and chemistry is...

• 2:20Fortune Feimster?

  Really coming through here.

  I don't know how to be sandwiched between Mae Martin and Fortune Feimster and not kiss all over you. I'm doing it for our fan base. I know they're all feeling it. They're all thinking it. I'm gonna do it.

• 2:38Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. Will they, won't they?

  Uh huh. What do you think's gonna happen? Do you think we will or do you think we won't?

• 3:08Fortune Feimster?

  I think that's what we keep, keep it stringing along.

• 3:13Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. So people keep listening. So they, cause they don't know, am I gonna leave Stephanie for Fortune?

• 3:25Fortune Feimster?

  Never, ever, ever.

• 3:27Tig Notaro?

  Oh, I never noticed your accent.

• 3:29Fortune Feimster?

  Never, ever. How long have y'all been together now?

• 3:32Tig Notaro?

  13 years.

• 3:33Fortune Feimster?

  Wow.

• 3:35Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 3:36Fortune Feimster?

  What would you have guessed? I thought it was somewhere around like 12, but yeah.

• 3:41Tig Notaro?

  I can't believe you're keeping up with that.

• 3:43Fortune Feimster?

  I know. Well, it's because I knew you both when y'all got together.

• 3:51Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. I'll be honest, this February is 13 years.

• 3:55Fortune Feimster?

  Okay. Well, you're right. We're right there.

• 3:58Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 3:58Fortune Feimster?

  Is it Valentine's?

• 4:00Tig Notaro?

  It is. It's exactly Valentine's Day.

• 4:02Fortune Feimster?

  Y'all smooched on Valentine's?

• 4:05Tig Notaro?

  That's when it happened.

• 4:06Fortune Feimster?

  That's romantic.

• 4:07Tig Notaro?

  And it wasn't even planned. People roll their eyes and they're like, oh yeah, right. Yeah. You didn't plan. We truly didn't. We didn't, we, there was no plan. I just met up with her that night and um, now here we are 13 years later with two kids, three cats and a production company.

• 4:25Fortune Feimster?

  Well, you smooched that night. She freaked out and then you gave her, she gave you the letter, the email and you said, okay, Dyke, which was an infamous part of your love story.

• 4:35Tig Notaro?

  It is, yes. We, we smooched and then her email was 43,000 pages telling me she could not date me, that she's not gay.

• 4:44Fortune Feimster?

  I would love to just picture her writing that. I wonder how long it took her.

• 4:48Tig Notaro?

  And not wanting to like hurt my feelings and be like, you know, complimentary about how fun it is to hang out. And, and then, you know, of course I was so bummed because I really thought, wow, I can see a future with this person. And then, yes, I wrote, in response to her email, I wrote, okay, Dyke.

• 5:11Fortune Feimster?

  And you did read the whole thing?

• 5:13Tig Notaro?

  Oh, yeah. Yeah. And I, I remember sitting there feeling bummed. I was like, God, but I, I was like, yeah, obviously I can't pursue this.

• 5:24Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 5:24Tig Notaro?

  I gotta let it go. So I'll leave it on a funny note.

• 5:28Fortune Feimster?

  Oh.

• 5:28Tig Notaro?

  And I had no idea that funny note was gonna be what made her, yeah, she was like, oh, I like her.

• 5:36Fortune Feimster?

  I know. I had, I had a number of those back in the day where I liked somebody and like threw it out there and I got the big fat no.

• 5:47Tig Notaro?

  And you didn't respond with, okay, Dyke?

• 5:50Fortune Feimster?

  No, I think I was like, cool, cool, cool. Oh, great. All right. Well, um, all right.

• 5:56Tig Notaro?

  So when you throw it out there, do you throw it out there with some flirting or do you throw it out there with a little bouquet of flowers delivered to someone's door, someone's door and saying, I've had my eye on you?

• 6:10Fortune Feimster?

  Well, this was a long time ago. If so, I mean, someone would be crazy to turn me down now.

• 6:15Tig Notaro?

  Of course, of course. Everyone relax. Fortune was just kidding.

• 6:21Fortune Feimster?

  I'm kidding.

• 6:22Tig Notaro?

  Of course, they'd be crazy to turn you down. You're a catch. I stand by this.

• 6:27Fortune Feimster?

  But back in the day, I was not as much, I was not a catch. I was kind of awkward because I came out late. So it was, you know, I just didn't know how to, I wasn't very smooth. And I probably had a little bit of desperation dripping off of me like, please go on a date with me.

• 6:45Tig Notaro?

  If not saying that out loud the whole time.

• 6:47Fortune Feimster?

  No, right. I think I would, from what I remember, I would hang out with the person quite a bit.

• 6:53Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 6:53Fortune Feimster?

  And get to know them and their, I felt like I was being flirty, but it was, I was always confused because people wanted to be my friend.

• 7:03Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 7:03Fortune Feimster?

  And they wanted to hang out with me, but I didn't know if it was ever more.

• 7:08Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 7:09Fortune Feimster?

  It would get to the point where I had developed such a crush that I would, I couldn't like hold it in anymore. And I would just, I think I would call and be like, hey, any chance I could take you out on an actual date? And I, and every now and then I got a yes. And then sometimes I would get a no, I just want to be friends. And that was always a bummer.

• 7:33Tig Notaro?

  Which that happened between us.

• 7:35Fortune Feimster?

  I know.

• 7:36Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. When you asked me out.

• 7:41Fortune Feimster?

  We were not each other's types.

• 7:45Tig Notaro?

  People are going to hear that and believe it. That never happened.

• 7:48Fortune Feimster?

  That never happened. Take it, take, and I never went on a date nor asked each other on a date.

• 7:54Tig Notaro?

  No.

• 7:55Fortune Feimster?

  But we did have dinner with a friend of ours that was not a date.

• 7:59Tig Notaro?

  What?

• 7:59Fortune Feimster?

  Remember Jamie Babbitt?

• 8:00Tig Notaro?

  Oh, right. And Carrie was there, Dornetto.

• 8:03Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 8:04Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 8:04Fortune Feimster?

  She, because I think we talked about it on the pod a long time ago. Jamie wrote, because we were like, was she trying to set us up? And she wrote, I was not. I just wanted my funny friends to meet each other.

• 8:13Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 8:13Fortune Feimster?

  But I didn't think it was.

• 8:15Tig Notaro?

  We had already met though, but she wanted us to spend time and become friends and start a podcast a decade later.

• 8:22Fortune Feimster?

  She's like, one day, 10 years from now, you'll start a podcast.

• 8:25Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. I haven't seen Jamie in a while, have you?

• 8:28Fortune Feimster?

  I haven't in a minute, no. But it was funny when she texted me after that episode, being like, I was not setting y'all up. I was like, I know, I know.

• 8:37Tig Notaro?

  That's funny.

• 8:38Fortune Feimster?

  And here we are.

• 8:39Tig Notaro?

  Here we are.

• 8:40Fortune Feimster?

  About to answer some questions from our lovely listeners.

• 8:43Tig Notaro?

  Let's do it. Let's get into it. Why would we wait any longer?

• 8:47Fortune Feimster?

  Just don't wait.

• 8:48Tig Notaro?

  Mm hmm. Let's stop waiting.

• 8:50Fortune Feimster?

  Mm hmm.

• 8:51Tig Notaro?

  Thomas?

• 8:52Speaker 00

  Hi, handsome pod. My name is Kristin and I live in Baltimore. My question is, are there two people in the entertainment world who you would like to see do a collaboration? Maybe two singers who you think should do a duet together, or two actors who would make a great rom com? Just something that you think would be fun and interesting.

• 9:12Tig Notaro?

  I know right off the bat what I want.

• 9:14Fortune Feimster?

  What's you got?

• 9:15Tig Notaro?

  Yes. I want an album entirely.

• 9:20Fortune Feimster?

  Uh huh.

• 9:21Tig Notaro?

  12 tracks, if not more.

• 9:23Fortune Feimster?

  Okay.

• 9:24Tig Notaro?

  Of Paul Simon and Edie Bercel.

• 9:26Fortune Feimster?

  Oh, yeah.

• 9:27Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 9:28Fortune Feimster?

  That would be good. They've never done that?

• 9:31Tig Notaro?

  I think they've like.

• 9:32Fortune Feimster?

  For a long time ago.

• 9:34Tig Notaro?

  They've performed together and, and, and he produced her solo album and, um, but, um, she had mentioned something recently to me about them performing or doing something together. And I was like, I, I, that's all anybody wants on this planet is Paul and Edie doing a full album of duets.

• 10:00Fortune Feimster?

  That would be cool.

• 10:01Tig Notaro?

  Whatever, whatever you.

• 10:03Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 10:04Tig Notaro?

  Not, not just like backup vocals, not just every other song, like a whole album. Give it to us.

• 10:10Fortune Feimster?

  Give it. Uh huh. Let's see. I would like to see Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig do like a limited series podcast together.

• 10:20Tig Notaro?

  Oh.

• 10:21Fortune Feimster?

  They're so funny. I think about them. They've, uh, given out awards together a couple of times. Uh, they did this one where they did this like, you get out of here. It's this whole bit that was like so funny, just like little things like that that they do together. Crack me up.

• 10:40Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 10:40Fortune Feimster?

  So I'd like to see that.

• 10:41Tig Notaro?

  Their ultimate silliness.

• 10:42Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. I like silly people together.

• 10:44Tig Notaro?

  What if they were like, we're not going to do that, but what we can do is a duet album?

• 10:49Fortune Feimster?

  I would love that too. That would, it would, they did a Lifetime movie together.

• 10:54Tig Notaro?

  They did?

• 10:54Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, and it, and they, but they did it like, serious, like, they were like, not making fun of Lifetime movies. They're like, we want to do a Lifetime movie.

• 11:04Tig Notaro?

  That is amazing.

• 11:05Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. So I want more from them.

• 11:08Tig Notaro?

  Mm hmm.

• 11:09Fortune Feimster?

  Uh, I want to see, they're already kind of a duo at times, but I want to see Tina Fey and Amy Poehler host an award show again together.

• 11:17Tig Notaro?

  Mm hmm.

• 11:18Fortune Feimster?

  But musically, I can't think of who I would want to sing together.

• 11:21Tig Notaro?

  How about Paul Simon and Edie Raquel?

• 11:23Fortune Feimster?

  Let's go with that one.

• 11:25Tig Notaro?

  All right.

• 11:25Fortune Feimster?

  Did Kristen tell us who she was?

• 11:28Tig Notaro?

  I bet it's Edie Raquel and Paul Simon. Mm hmm.

• 11:31Speaker 00

  For me, my answer is, whenever I see the comedian, Dimitri Martin, I always think of Kate McCucci. And every time you guys mention Kate McCucci, for some reason, I think of Dimitri Martin. And I know that their energies are pretty different, but they live in the same place in my brain. And I would just love to see what those two crazy kids would come up with if they did a collaboration. I think it would be really fun and interesting. They're both so multi hyphenate talents. And that's my answer. Thanks. I love your podcast.

• 12:01Fortune Feimster?

  I could, I could see that, actually.

• 12:03Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, yeah, for sure. They're, they have, uh, I don't know if this, I mean, is the word quirky, right? I mean, I feel like that's kind of not really giving them the credit that they deserve.

• 12:15Fortune Feimster?

  Right.

• 12:16Tig Notaro?

  They have, they're not, even though they've broken through in mainstream ways, they're like, they have such different ways of thinking about things and approaching things.

• 12:33Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 12:33Tig Notaro?

  Um, that would be interesting.

• 12:35Fortune Feimster?

  Mm hmm. And they're both brunette. What a lovely cover that would be.

• 12:41Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, and kind of both have bowl haircuts.

• 12:46Fortune Feimster?

  It's perfect.

• 12:47Tig Notaro?

  They're both artists. Yeah.

• 12:48Fortune Feimster?

  And it's called My Coochie.

• 12:53Fortune Feimster?

  No? Oh, wait, Dimitri Me Coochie.

• 12:57Tig Notaro?

  How about Dem Coochie's?

• 13:00Fortune Feimster?

  There you go.

• 13:03Tig Notaro?

  Tig Marie.

• 13:04Fortune Feimster?

  That's it. That's it, Tig Marie.

• 13:11Tig Notaro?

  All right, what else we got, Mr. Thomas?

• 13:15Speaker 05

  Hi, Hansons. My name is Nick. I live in the UK and I have a question for Tig. So I work at a university and I teach film history and film and media theory. And this year I'm teaching a class all about emotion in film and how different types of films evoke different kind of physical or emotional responses in their audiences. And one of the topics is documentary films. And this year I decided to screen "Come See Me in the Good Light" to my students. And I was wondering, what kind of discussion questions do you think you would want the students to be asked, once they've seen the film? You know, what kind of discussions do you think they should be having? What kind of conversations would, do you think would be the most useful?

• 13:56Speaker 05

  Or do you kind of envision as being the perfect response to the film? Okay, thank you. Bye.

• 14:03Tig Notaro?

  Nick, thank you. That means a lot and I'm so thankful that the movie spoke to you. You know what I'm really interested in? Just the idea of death and your own death. And what are you, I mean, obviously, some people don't have the lead up or knowledge that they're going to be dying. But I think that before Andrea's death and before this documentary, I did not think much about my own death and what I wanted.

• 14:45Tig Notaro?

  And having been at end of life bedsides before Andrea, I was at three other ones. And what I really noticed was that the conversation wasn't very open. There was a lot of like... Look, you can't avoid sadness and fear and dread and all of this stuff and regret and whatever it is. But I really would be curious to hear people in your class, Nick, talk about or explore

• 15:29Tig Notaro?

  the idea of what they want in the final days and the time of their death. If they have that luxury of planning and preparing, which, you know, to some degree everyone can have that if they get started. And it's made me realize, and I have been introducing it more to Max and Finn, and I'm trying to not present death as like this horrendous, terrible thing. And of course it is, it's so sad and emotional, but it can be beautiful and it can be life-changing

• 16:11Tig Notaro?

  in this bold, exciting way if you embrace it. And of course, I know death is so different with every person, family, illness, and end of life. But that is what Andrea's death in this movie has done to me, is it's made me change my idea and it's made me not look at it like something to just ignore, push away, and dread until it's coming and then it happens and then it's devastating. And of course, that can still happen when you're planning and you're keeping the conversation open. But that's if, I don't know, I feel like I'm talking in circles, but does that make sense?

• 16:56Fortune Feimster?

  Totally makes sense, yeah. Those are important conversations to have, too.

• 17:00Tig Notaro?

  It is, but to really actually have them.

• 17:04Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, not act like it isn't gonna happen one day.

• 17:09Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, and I was at a Christmas, a friend's Christmas dinner.

• 17:14Tig Notaro?

  And two of my friend's friends, I didn't know, I know them and I see them regularly at her house, but I didn't know that these two women have been getting certified as death duelists.

• 17:33Fortune Feimster?

  Whoa.

• 17:33Tig Notaro?

  And it just like changed our conversation. We've had such casual conversations together when we see one another. Oh my gosh, was it different? And now we have these follow-up texts and now we're gonna meet and talk more about death and their certification or whatever they're studying to become death duelists.

• 17:57Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 17:57Tig Notaro?

  And I'm just so fascinated because I think it can be a positive thing.

• 18:02Fortune Feimster?

  Mm-hmm.

• 18:03Tig Notaro?

  If you're, if you're open to positive. I mean, of course, it's crazy to say that.

• 18:09Fortune Feimster?

  Well, gaining stuff from it, you know, knowledge.

• 18:13Tig Notaro?

  Just being open.

• 18:16Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 18:17Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. Anyway, that's just where I am and I would be so interested to hear students talk about that.

• 18:25Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. That's great.

• 18:27Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. Anyway, that's, that's my answer, Nick.

• 18:30Fortune Feimster?

  Should we do one quick, quick question?

• 18:33Tig Notaro?

  Quick, quick, go quick, quick, quick. Quick, quick, quick.

• 18:37Speaker 04

  Hey, handsoms. This is Joyce from Fort Smith, Arkansas. And my question for you today is, are you afraid of clowns or do you find them creepy? I think the general consensus is yes, when you ask most people, but I want to know your thoughts, your way in, why or why not?

• 19:00Fortune Feimster?

  I've never had that thing. You know, some people like think they're the creepiest and so scary. I mean, obviously like a movie like It, they're meant to be. The villain and creepy so that they're leaning into that, but they've never been a source of weirdness for me.

• 19:17Tig Notaro?

  Samezies.

• 19:18Fortune Feimster?

  Right, I mean, I understand like it can lend itself to creepiness with the clown music and stuff, but.

• 19:26Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, I just, I, I, when people are like, oh my God, clowns are so creepy. I'm like, sure.

• 19:34Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, there's much creepier things in my opinion.

• 19:37Tig Notaro?

  I know. I just, I'm like, okay, that like, I'm clearly missing something.

• 19:42Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 19:43Tig Notaro?

  That, uh, it's not like I want to go to a clown conference and no offense to the clowns listening, but.

• 19:49Fortune Feimster?

  And do your, um.

• 19:51Tig Notaro?

  Fa fa.

• 19:52Fortune Feimster?

  There you go.

• 19:53Tig Notaro?

  The clown horn, yeah. Um.

• 19:56Fortune Feimster?

  Fa fa fa fa fa fa.

• 19:59Tig Notaro?

  Do you want to do it, Fortune?

• 20:00Fortune Feimster?

  Fa fa, I can't do it.

• 20:02Tig Notaro?

  No, you can't.

• 20:04Fortune Feimster?

  Mm mm.

• 20:04Tig Notaro?

  Thomas? Fa fa. That's pretty good. Fortune, you want to try again? Fa fa. No.

• 20:12Fortune Feimster?

  No.

• 20:13Tig Notaro?

  All right, well, that was a fun.

• 20:14Fortune Feimster?

  I can't be great at everything.

• 20:18Tig Notaro?

  No, you can't.

• 20:19Fortune Feimster?

  It's impossible.

• 20:20Tig Notaro?

  Fa fa. Does Joyce have an answer?

• 20:22Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah, does Joyce, does Joyce think clowns are creepy?

• 20:26Tig Notaro?

  Fa fa fa fa fa. Do you think Joyce is gonna think so?

• 20:29Fortune Feimster?

  I, I, I'm gonna assume she thinks they're creepy for her to have asked this question.

• 20:34Tig Notaro?

  I'm gonna say she doesn't.

• 20:36Fortune Feimster?

  Okay.

• 20:37Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

  My answer to that question is no. Um, and my why is because as a kid, my mom was a clown. Um, she was, she had some odd jobs. She's a hairdresser. And on the side, you could hire her to do your kids' birthday party and she would dress up as, um, sometimes a character, but, uh, most of the time it was as a clown. She did balloon animals and all that. It was really fun. Uh, my dad's also a stand-up comedian, so we had a pretty eccentric childhood, me and my sisters, with a comedian dad and a clown mom, so.

• 21:16Speaker 04

  That's a fun, a fun house.

• 21:20Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 21:21Fortune Feimster?

  Literal fun house. So yeah, she's used to clowns, so.

• 21:26Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 21:27Fortune Feimster?

  Not creepy to her. Yeah, it's never, that's never been a thing that I've been like, oh my God, clowns are so creepy. Probably just because I like hearing that clown horn you do.
