  Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. Not checking for spider webs before confidently striding through my garden? Blech! Now I've got a face full of webs and the spider isn't too happy either.

• 0:20Fortune Feimster?

  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.

• 0:44Tig Notaro?

  Pretty little episode. Hi, it's your friend Tig Notaro.

• 0:49Fortune Feimster?

  And your friend Fortune Beamster.

• 0:51Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, and we're doing a very pretty little episode of Handsome Pod.

• 0:56Fortune Feimster?

  Oh, yeah. Yeah, we are.

• 0:58Tig Notaro?

  You're having a little snack? What are you having?

• 1:00Fortune Feimster?

  Um, I don't want to tell you.

• 1:03Tig Notaro?

  Why? There's meat?

• 1:05Fortune Feimster?

  It's a slab of meat.

• 1:08Fortune Feimster?

  It's a tri-tip sandwich.

• 1:13Tig Notaro?

  I thought you were just hav- Listen, I know people eat meat, but I thought you were just having an actual slab of meat.

• 1:20Fortune Feimster?

  It's a little slab of meat on a piece of bread. I was, I had shows in San Luis Obispo.

• 1:29Tig Notaro?

  Wait, you've changed how you pronounce it.

• 1:31Fortune Feimster?

  I know. They say, I thought it was Obispo.

• 1:34Tig Notaro?

  I know you did.

• 1:35Fortune Feimster?

  Everyone was like, no, it's Obispo.

• 1:39Tig Notaro?

  San Luis Obispo.

• 1:41Fortune Feimster?

  Obispo, yes. And they have a place right across the street known for their tri-tip sandwiches.

• 1:49Tig Notaro?

  Okay.

• 1:50Fortune Feimster?

  And this was from last night. And I just finished radio five minutes ago.

• 1:56Tig Notaro?

  Uh huh.

• 1:56Fortune Feimster?

  And I've been on there for two hours, so I had five minutes to figure out.

• 2:01Tig Notaro?

  How to get that slab of meat into your mouth.

• 2:05Fortune Feimster?

  So that was, that was my only thing I could think to get prepared in that time or less.

• 2:11Tig Notaro?

  And is the restaurant good? Was the?

• 2:13Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 2:14Tig Notaro?

  Yeah?

• 2:15Fortune Feimster?

  It is good, yeah.

• 2:16Tig Notaro?

  Awesome.

• 2:16Fortune Feimster?

  Worth, worth the hype.

• 2:18Tig Notaro?

  Nice.

• 2:19Fortune Feimster?

  Not to be disrespectful to you. I didn't want you to see that.

• 2:22Tig Notaro?

  Girl, I appreciate it, but I know people are out there eating meat.

• 2:28Fortune Feimster?

  I know.

• 2:28Tig Notaro?

  You do you.

• 2:29Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. Good to see you, friend.

• 2:32Tig Notaro?

  Good to see you. My, my house is in shambles. Got a plumber here, got my handyman putting cabinets together.

• 2:42Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 2:42Tig Notaro?

  Have a new fence being put in. Just a lot.

• 2:46Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. And a lot at one time.

• 2:49Tig Notaro?

  Yes, a lot at one time. And we have some friends in town. I had so much fun, I have to say. I was, Max and Finn's godparents are in town. I have some childhood friends that live here in LA. And then another childhood friend came in town. Like, we all had this big childhood reunion. Oh, and another friend who lives in LA. And so we all got together the other night. And I have not, I guess I probably haven't stayed out that late since I partied with Natalie Merchant.

• 3:26Fortune Feimster?

  Wow, nice.

• 3:28Tig Notaro?

  Because, yeah, we had to get up at five in the morning for a baseball tournament. And I was truly deep in the valley, looking at my watch, going, oh my God, it's midnight. Like, it truly was one of those nights that just went from 6:00 PM to midnight. I had no idea. And then we had to drive home.

• 3:48Fortune Feimster?

  I love those nights.

• 3:49Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, it was pretty, pretty darn great.

• 3:52Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 3:52Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. How are you doing?

• 3:54Fortune Feimster?

  I'm doing good. I'm in crunch time for my, filming my special in a couple of weeks. So I'm just in that mode right now where I'm doing a lot of shows and making a lot of last minute changes to my material, trying to re-memorize it every night. So I'm just ready to get that going. And I think what, you know, there's, as you've experienced, there's always a little bit of pressure before you film. You just want to get it right. So I think I'll be happy when that's done, because I just don't want any extra pressure right now on top of everything else. So I'm just, yeah, just excited to get that underway. And, but I had some lovely shows up in the Central Coast.

• 4:40Tig Notaro?

  In the Obispo's?

• 4:41Fortune Feimster?

  In the Obispo's, in the Santa Barbara's.

• 4:44Tig Notaro?

  Santa Babs.

• 4:45Fortune Feimster?

  Lovely folks. It's so nice to be able to drive to a gig. I love that.

• 4:49Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 4:51Fortune Feimster?

  And then a couple of weeks ago, I had to show up in Oakland. I can't remember if I told you, I went to Napa the night before by myself to have a little Eat, Pray, Napa situation where.

• 5:04Tig Notaro?

  Oh, just like to, you didn't have a show?

• 5:07Fortune Feimster?

  No, I just went and went wine tasting by myself.

• 5:12Tig Notaro?

  Wow.

• 5:13Fortune Feimster?

  Got in a hot tub at my hotel by myself.

• 5:15Tig Notaro?

  Tits out or?

• 5:17Fortune Feimster?

  Tits out.

• 5:20Fortune Feimster?

  Tits were in.

• 5:22Tig Notaro?

  Was it your own private hot tub? Was it that kind of place?

• 5:25Fortune Feimster?

  Communal.

• 5:27Tig Notaro?

  And were other people in the hot tub with you?

• 5:29Fortune Feimster?

  No, I would not have gotten in if they were.

• 5:33Fortune Feimster?

  And yeah, just walked around.

• 5:34Tig Notaro?

  Because you wouldn't want to talk to them?

• 5:36Fortune Feimster?

  I just, it's just weird to be by yourself and chatting with strangers in a hot tub. I'm not doing that.

• 5:44Tig Notaro?

  I don't know why. That's so funny to me. Because of course, like, that would be a nightmare to me.

• 5:50Fortune Feimster?

  I went later where like, you know, because it closes, everything closes there pretty early. So I think I went at like 10:00 PM.

• 5:56Tig Notaro?

  Because everyone's trashed, right?

• 5:58Fortune Feimster?

  People were well asleep. It was, I even had dinner by myself. I ordered a prefix menu, but you know, definitely, I don't know, I just went up there to just, because it's so beautiful. And I just decided to have a little time to myself and.

• 6:15Tig Notaro?

  And where would you rank that? Like, out of 10? Like?

• 6:18Fortune Feimster?

  I had a great time. I also wanted to buy some nice wines. I, some of those I had got lost in the divorce. And so just kind of replenishing some of that as well. And it was, it was nice. I think I needed a minute to just be.

• 6:37Tig Notaro?

  Yep. That makes sense. And then, not to get too personal, but did you put the moves on yourself while you were up there?

• 6:44Fortune Feimster?

  On myself? No.

• 6:49Fortune Feimster?

  I didn't put out.

• 6:51Tig Notaro?

  Take yourself out for a nice meal and some wine and then?

• 6:55Fortune Feimster?

  No, I kept it classy.

• 6:57Tig Notaro?

  Okay, all right.

• 6:58Fortune Feimster?

  I'm a lady.

• 6:59Tig Notaro?

  I know you are, girl. I know it. Yeah. Have you always been comfortable taking yourself out?

• 7:05Fortune Feimster?

  I don't mind when I'm on the road. I eat by myself all the time. Usually I'll just saddle up to like, even like at a steakhouse at the bar or something.

• 7:16Tig Notaro?

  Have a slab of meat.

• 7:17Fortune Feimster?

  Have a slab of meat, or I'll get a sandwich from somewhere to go. It was, it did feel a little bit weird being by myself doing wine tastings. That definitely felt like a communal thing, but.

• 7:30Tig Notaro?

  Were there strangers in your tasting? Or did you have a private one or?

• 7:34Fortune Feimster?

  There were people, there was people around, there were people around. And there were a lot of people coming up to me saying hello. So I didn't feel totally, I wasn't totally alone. And all the people pouring me wine were familiar with me and we were chatting. So I wasn't like some weirdo in the corner.

• 7:52Tig Notaro?

  I never said you were. I never said you were.

• 7:55Fortune Feimster?

  I knew you wouldn't think that. I think I was just feeling a little like self-conscious maybe about it. I kept making jokes about it. So that's probably an indication that I was.

• 8:08Tig Notaro?

  That's funny.

• 8:09Fortune Feimster?

  I did it. I'm glad I did.

• 8:11Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, I don't, I guess I do the same. I mean, I know I do the same when I'm on the road, especially if I'm in an area or a country I've never been to. I want to go to like, the nicest possible vegan restaurant if they have it. And I just really take myself out.

• 8:28Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah?

• 8:28Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 8:29Fortune Feimster?

  Well, because you don't want to like, miss out on a nice meal because you're by yourself. You're like, I'm in this place. I'd like to try this restaurant or whatever. And why not? Yeah, treat yourself.

• 8:41Tig Notaro?

  Well, I'm glad you had a nice little romantic time by yourself, even though you didn't put out. I know. Next time. Next time.

• 8:53Tig Notaro?

  Should we see if there's anything interesting out there? I know there will be.

• 8:59Fortune Feimster?

  Let's do it.

• 9:00Speaker 00

  Hey, y'all. This is Abby from Mississippi, but via Vermont. I live in Vermont now, on the other side of the universe, from Mississippi, really. And I want to know about home remedies. Like, when you were growing up, would y'all always do the same stuff when y'all were sick to try to feel better? And nowadays, is there something that you're doing to make your people feel better? Or that you do for yourself to make you feel better?

• 9:33Fortune Feimster?

  My grandmother.

• 9:34Tig Notaro?

  I was gonna say, I bet you had home remedies.

• 9:37Fortune Feimster?

  My grandmother was very into home remedies. She had a whole book of them.

• 9:41Tig Notaro?

  Oh.

• 9:42Fortune Feimster?

  And I don't remember a lot of them, but some of her big ones were, well, she had the aloe plant. So anytime we had a cut, she always snipped off the aloe plant and put that on the cut. She loved to put lemon juice in your hair to lighten it up in the summer.

• 10:03Tig Notaro?

  That is a remedy.

• 10:05Fortune Feimster?

  If you had a tummy ache, you drink a Coca-Cola.

• 10:09Fortune Feimster?

  This isn't a homemade remedy, but she loves suppositories.

• 10:18Tig Notaro?

  For herself or anyone caught with their pants down?

• 10:21Fortune Feimster?

  If anyone was having, like if the coke didn't work for the tummy ache, she was putting a suppository, giving you a suppository and she thought that'd clear you out.

• 10:31Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 10:31Fortune Feimster?

  And help with your tummy. So I've not had a suppository since my childhood.

• 10:39Tig Notaro?

  Uh huh.

• 10:39Fortune Feimster?

  Um, I think.

• 10:40Tig Notaro?

  Did she insert it for you?

• 10:42Fortune Feimster?

  No, she would give it to me, but I was just like, I just assumed everyone was constantly using suppositories.

• 10:52Tig Notaro?

  Constant.

• 10:54Fortune Feimster?

  You know, I have the day off. A handful feels like too many.

• 11:07Tig Notaro?

  Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. Not checking that the sing along musical I bought tickets for is actually a sing along musical before belting from the third row? Oh no. I could have sworn that we were allowed to join in, but from the looks I'm getting, I fear I'm mistaken. 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. I can't say that I, I, I think a suppository is a home remedy.

• 11:47Fortune Feimster?

  It's not. It just made me think of my, the home remedies made me think of that in regards to my grandmother.

• 11:54Tig Notaro?

  Haven't we also talked about that thing like back in the olden days, putting a baby's, um, like, what are those called? The things they suck on?

• 12:07Fortune Feimster?

  The pacifier?

• 12:08Tig Notaro?

  Pacifier in whiskey. Are you familiar with that?

• 12:12Fortune Feimster?

  Heard of that one. Yeah. That was a real old school.

• 12:17Tig Notaro?

  And I was going to say the same thing about coke, which I just, I can't even imagine if my kid's stomach hurt, I would, it would never, it would never dawn on me like, oh, here's a coke, you know?

• 12:29Fortune Feimster?

  Then we started, we would just want a coke. So we'd be like, oh, my tummy's hurting.

• 12:36Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. I'm trying to think. I never did this and Thomas, if you could Google it up, I have heard, again, I've never done this, but I have heard that the first stream of urine in the morning, this feels like a prank.

• 12:56Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 12:57Tig Notaro?

  If you put it on your face, it, it helps with acne.

• 13:05Fortune Feimster?

  Oh my God, not worth it. I'd rather have the acne.

• 13:10Tig Notaro?

  Well, you can wash it off, you know?

• 13:12Fortune Feimster?

  Wash it off.

• 13:13Tig Notaro?

  Wash it.

• 13:14Fortune Feimster?

  Oh, I, have you tried that?

• 13:16Tig Notaro?

  I said, I have not.

• 13:18Fortune Feimster?

  Oh.

• 13:18Tig Notaro?

  You never listen to me, do you?

• 13:20Fortune Feimster?

  Sorry, I did miss that.

• 13:21Tig Notaro?

  Thomas, urine on the face? Did you Google it up?

• 13:24Speaker 03

  It appears that this was a trend about 10 years ago and people called them pee facials or urotherapy.

• 13:32Tig Notaro?

  Hmm.

• 13:33Speaker 03

  And there is a doctor who's a dermatologist who said, don't put pee on your face. And use other natural products like tea, apple cider vinegar, and tea tree oil.

• 13:47Tig Notaro?

  Okay.

• 13:49Fortune Feimster?

  Some doctor had to be like, everybody, please stop putting urine on your face.

• 13:53Tig Notaro?

  Well, and I also heard about it long before 10 years ago.

• 13:58Fortune Feimster?

  Uh huh.

• 13:58Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. I feel like I heard it over 30 years ago.

• 14:02Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 14:02Tig Notaro?

  But, uh, maybe I heard it from the person who had the terrible idea.

• 14:06Fortune Feimster?

  I wish I could think of more home remedies that my grandmother did. I'll have to ask my mom, cause she, she has a steel trap of a memory.

• 14:14Tig Notaro?

  Does she?

• 14:15Fortune Feimster?

  Oh yeah. She can remember everything, even when she was little. It's, I can't remember anything.

• 14:21Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. Yeah.

• 14:23Fortune Feimster?

  I'm like, what is wrong with me? She'll be like, you don't remember this or that? I'm like, no.

• 14:27Tig Notaro?

  No.

• 14:28Fortune Feimster?

  But even when I was old, too old to not be remembering, like 24, I'm like, why do I not remember this?

• 14:33Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. My memories, I feel like I need to just go see a doctor and be like, am I okay? Well, should we see, uh, what Abby from Mississippi, my fellow Mississippian has to say?

• 14:48Speaker 00

  For me, my dad would always, um,

• 14:51Tig Notaro?

  Put urine on my face.

• 14:53Speaker 00

  Uh, which was like this bright red, real stingy stuff, like any cut or anything, methylate, bright red. Um, and we had a little brass sick bell, which sounds like the worst idea ever now that I have children. I don't know why you'd want somebody ringing a bell at you all day.

• 15:09Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 15:11Speaker 00

  Um, hot water bottles, always, yes, yes. Okay. Can't wait to hear y'all's answer.

• 15:16Tig Notaro?

  Well, we already told you. It's like Abby doesn't even listen to the show.

• 15:20Fortune Feimster?

  No one's listening to you, did I, T?

• 15:23Tig Notaro?

  That's true. Abby, here's my advice. Put urine on your face.

• 15:28Fortune Feimster?

  Yep. Everybody do it.

• 15:31Tig Notaro?

  All right. What else? Uh, what else we got? Thomas, Mr. T?

• 15:37Speaker 04

  I am Dee from Benicia. Just moved there, bought a house. Woo hoo. Uh, doesn't matter, but 37, big accomplishment with my husband. I would like to ask a question. What would be a good way for me to make a stamp in this neighborhood? Like this is going to be my stomping grounds, very, very new. Um, from San Jose originally. So still a Bay girl, but really just want to know, like, do I bake sourdough for all the vegan and vegetarian, still meat eaters? Everybody loves bread. But like, what do I do? I don't want to be that, uh, person that, you know, just that neighbor that nobody knows about. So just want to throw it out there and say, what would you do? What would be like a nice gift

• 16:18Speaker 04

  or a nice, hey, I'm here. Let's all be friends. Okay. Um, thanks so much. Love what you do. And, um, keep it high and tight. Keep it pretty handsome. Thanks.

• 16:30Fortune Feimster?

  Man, she's much better than me.

• 16:33Tig Notaro?

  Oh, cause you don't meet your neighbors?

• 16:35Fortune Feimster?

  No. No. I meet like two of them, but I don't go like, let me introduce myself to the neighborhood.

• 16:43Tig Notaro?

  Mm hmm. Well, I was going to say, I was going to comment on that, like how, that's so interesting because there are so many different personalities where people are just like, keep it moving. And then, um, and then there's somebody like Dee who's like, I don't want to be the neighbor. Nobody knows.

• 17:01Fortune Feimster?

  Yep.

• 17:02Tig Notaro?

  Well, I think I've talked about it on here, how my neighbor and I, one of my neighbors, first, also, our neighbors are incredible. Every turn you take to the left of us, the right, across the street, catty corner, across, behind us, we are all set up. And, um, we feel so thankful for that. Cause it feels.

• 17:25Fortune Feimster?

  Very rare.

• 17:26Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 17:26Fortune Feimster?

  Out here.

• 17:27Tig Notaro?

  Mm hmm. And it feels very, um, much like it, it makes our house more valuable to us. We've, we've thought about moving as Max and Finn have gotten older. And then I always come back to, I have the perfect neighbors.

• 17:45Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 17:46Tig Notaro?

  But the neighbor to our right, we've had this ongoing relationship where they leave lentil soup at our door.

• 17:59Fortune Feimster?

  Aww.

• 17:59Tig Notaro?

  And we leave banana bread at their door.

• 18:02Fortune Feimster?

  Oh my God, I love banana bread.

• 18:04Tig Notaro?

  I love you too. And so we, we do that. And I, I think aside from, uh, you know, I mean, of course you could make a loaf of something or whatever for everybody, but, um, I highly recommend getting in one of those kinds of relationships with a neighbor where there's no, we just put a little note on, on the soup or the bread when we make it. And, um, just, uh, just a funny little note to each other. And that's the end. You don't have to like spend hours at the door. You don't have to be like, split the soup I made you or any of that. I don't know. I really like it. It makes me feel like I'm in a small town or something.

• 18:49Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. No, it's awesome. Cause you want community and it's harder in a bigger city.

• 18:54Tig Notaro?

  Mm hmm.

• 18:55Fortune Feimster?

  Um, so I think that's great.

• 18:57Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 18:57Fortune Feimster?

  Actually, my old neighbor from the house I owned for over 10 years, just texting me five minutes ago, being like, if you need anything, I'm, I'm not far away. Let me know. That was really sweet.

• 19:10Tig Notaro?

  So it's your old neighbor from your old house?

• 19:13Fortune Feimster?

  Uh huh. Not the one, not my last house, but the house I had bought on my own back in the day. She was one of those, Stephanie, really great. Her name's Stephanie. Um, her, uh, she's retired from teaching and, um, just always was like helping me like when I was out of town with if I needed like a trash can situation or a package. And, um, she's just so lovely. She was checking on my mom. And, um, I've met a couple of these new neighbors. Like when I, I got given a bunch of Paw Patrol toys when I did the film. And so I texted my neighbor being like, you know, your kid, how, I don't know how old your kids are. Do they want any of these toys? And.

• 19:53Tig Notaro?

  And did they?

• 19:54Fortune Feimster?

  They were, her kids were too old, but, um, I took them over for her housekeeper's grandchildren. Um, and so, you know, like little things like that, if I have something, I'm happy to, um, to share, but I just don't, I, these people, these people, I don't know.

• 20:13Tig Notaro?

  And you want to keep it that way.

• 20:15Fortune Feimster?

  I mean, I'm also just always on the road. So I'm, I'm a unstable neighbor.

• 20:21Tig Notaro?

  Mm hmm. Yeah.

• 20:23Fortune Feimster?

  So, you know, uh, I, I like that people do things for each other.

• 20:28Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, me too. I mean, I like the loaf of bread idea. Um, we make our banana bread vegan. So, um, there's all, and nobody ever knows. People are like, oh my God, this is so delicious.

• 20:43Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. I've had vegan banana bread. It's excellent.

• 20:45Tig Notaro?

  Yeah. Yeah.

• 20:47Fortune Feimster?

  The bananas are so sweet. It's like plenty, plenty sweet. And, uh, I was thinking about, I do have a neighbor, um, who's on, who, who we know, I won't say just because she's on.

• 21:00Tig Notaro?

  We'll bleep it out. Yeah.

• 21:03Fortune Feimster?

  And I was gonna write her to be like, do you like wine? I was gonna take her over a little bundle of some wine, so I might do that.

• 21:10Tig Notaro?

  She's the best.

• 21:11Fortune Feimster?

  She's awesome. Yeah.

• 21:12Tig Notaro?

  Love her.

• 21:13Fortune Feimster?

  Like, the first week I moved in here, she was like, I was like, I hate to ask, can you bring my trashcans in?

• 21:22Fortune Feimster?

  She's like, I shouldn't have told her to call me if she needs anything. So I'm gonna, I'm gonna have to make it up to her.

• 21:29Tig Notaro?

  That's hilarious.

• 21:32Fortune Feimster?

  Well, Dee, I think that you should, to give advice to Dee, I think the sourdough bread is a very good idea. I think neighbors would love that.

• 21:41Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 21:42Fortune Feimster?

  Um, I also think, I'm not gonna do this myself, but I do like it when the neighbors have like the cute little free libraries in the front of their lawn.

• 21:50Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, that's fun.

• 21:51Fortune Feimster?

  I think that's a good way for people to like stop by and if you're, you know, in, in the yard, you can chat every now and then. And but the, but doing something for your neighbors, I think will definitely win favor. Um, and people love bread.

• 22:05Tig Notaro?

  Yeah, and you don't even have to build the little library box. I have a friend that has one on the ledge of his fence that's a brick wall. And he just puts a couple of, uh, bricks or rocks on either side and it holds the books up and

• 22:21Fortune Feimster?

  Really?

• 22:22Tig Notaro?

  Yeah.

• 22:22Fortune Feimster?

  How nice.

• 22:23Tig Notaro?

  And people just come by, grab something, leave something and they know what it is.

• 22:28Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah.

• 22:29Tig Notaro?

  Leave it, leave a loaf of bread between a couple of rocks.

• 22:33Fortune Feimster?

  Someone will grab it.

• 22:35Tig Notaro?

  Well, thank you, Dee.

• 22:36Fortune Feimster?

  Yeah. Thank you for that. Hopefully you get to know your neighbors very soon.

• 22:40Tig Notaro?

  Yes, indeed. Indeed.
