0:51
Louder. Hi, Ricky.
0:59
Hi. How are you?
1:01
What are you doing here? You'd ask me to be.
1:03
On your podcast. So I thought I would come and do
1:05
it. That's right.
1:06
Yeah. Are you available?
1:07
Absolutely. Because it seemed like you might
1:09
be. Have a seat.
1:11
Oh my gosh. How long have you been in
1:13
London? Like a week and 1/2.
1:16
A week and a half, yeah. How long did it take for the jet
1:19
lag? It's still happening.
1:21
Well, maybe like a week. No, it's still, but it's still a
1:23
little bit. Did you take melatonin?
1:25
Oh, that's kids stuff. Oh, really?
1:28
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I took way worse than melatonin.
1:29
Yeah. Really.
1:30
Yeah. I can't.
1:31
I can't. I'm not a good sleeper.
1:32
Everybody has their own trick. Yeah, mine is, you know, like I
1:37
took like Ambien or something, you know, stuff like.
1:38
That, but not like Michael Jackson.
1:41
No, his was. Propofol, yeah.
1:43
His was Propofol and. Then get a doctor.
1:45
Yes, yes, I don't. I'm not that advanced.
1:47
OK, good. But no, I'm off the Ambien now.
1:49
I just needed it to like make myself fall asleep at you know,
1:53
one in the afternoon for a one night or whatever it is,
1:55
whatever that crossover is. Can I tell you something funny?
1:59
Yes. You are in my show.
2:02
I heard this you. Are in my show.
2:04
Tell me more. So my show is about my fertility
2:06
journey and if you remember, you were on the Garfunkel and OCH.
2:09
Show yes, and as a doctor, yes. You played my Doctor Who gave me
2:13
like info via emojis, which really happened in real life.
2:17
Yes. And so instead of like
2:19
explaining it to the audience, I go, well, we actually did this.
2:23
And so I showed the clip of you explaining my fertility.
2:26
And everybody goes. That's Rich Falcher.
2:28
And then and then they shouted out.
2:30
And then, yeah, you tell me I didn't get any eggs.
2:34
And so, yeah. And that segways into.
2:37
Into the show, but it's funny cuz I thought like I thought
2:40
that would be my whole fertility journey like the whole egg
2:42
freezing saga and like that was like chapter 1 of like a
2:44
marathon that was like mile one of a marathon, right And I was
2:47
like and I thought it was like so interesting documenting the
2:50
whole journey and like that was just like but so you're you're
2:54
like a minute into my show there's a.
2:56
Video so cool. Yep.
2:58
I've got to see it. I know you have to come I.
3:01
Have to come next. Couple weeks, yeah.
3:03
Tell the date 930. At night though, it's.
3:05
I don't know if that's too. Late for you it's.
3:08
Late for me, I'm a mom and I'm like woof.
3:10
No, I know it's sometimes you have to go into the city and
3:13
then you go. I got to catch a train.
3:16
It's so late. Yeah.
3:17
It's so late, yeah, but it's like it's from now until the
3:20
18th of April. Yes, you've got to see this.
3:24
It's at Soho Theatre and it is just taking the city by storm.
3:30
Thank. You yeah, the reviews were.
3:33
I was so pleasantly surprised. I was like, cuz you never know.
3:37
Why? Well, it's such a sensitive
3:39
topic that you never know what people are gonna.
3:41
Think too sensitive? Yeah, well, you never know.
3:44
And so it was like very happy that people liked it.
3:47
Now the whole journey started. When?
3:52
When would you say it all started?
3:54
It was like, I would do this. I think it was like 34 and it
3:57
was when I was doing the Garfunkel and Hot Show and I got
4:00
my eggs frozen and we did an episode about it where you
4:02
played the doctor. That was kind.
4:03
Of the I think you might have even told me about it on the
4:07
set. Yeah, cuz you were playing the.
4:09
I'm sure I did. And we were eating jello on the
4:12
set. I don't know what we were eating
4:14
something. It was, but it's funny because
4:16
that was the first like show that really showed the egg
4:20
freezing process. Yes, and the reason we knew that
4:22
is because our prop people went to the medical houses to get the
4:26
the drugs and they were like, we don't have those.
4:28
And they were like, what do you mean?
4:30
You have you know, there's been a zillion medical shows.
4:32
They have every drug. They had to like fashion.
4:34
They had to the prop people had to make the I took pictures of
4:37
my IVF drugs. They had to make them.
4:39
I mean now it's everywhere. But then they had to make their
4:41
own look alike drugs. And wasn't this filmed at an old
4:45
hospital? Yes, everything of that show was
4:47
filmed at the oldest it. Was such an old hospital.
4:51
That show is so low budget that like we had a driving scene and
4:55
the day we got there they were like, well, you can't, we can't
4:57
afford to drive. And then we were like, what?
4:59
And so we had to like fake the scene where I pick up Kate from
5:03
this one night stand and then we just sit and do the whole scene
5:05
in the car and then I go, Oh my gosh, I forgot to drive.
5:07
That's literally in the show. Like we pretend to start driving
5:11
and then they cut. My doctor smock was made of
5:13
toilet paper. I.
5:16
Would not be surprised it was we did not have any money.
5:20
But that those are the best shows.
5:22
Yeah. Yes, the best comedies come out
5:25
of that. Yeah.
5:26
So you had already started your process, though.
5:29
Yeah, I think I've already. Frozen my eggs three times by
5:31
the time we did that. Three times how many total?
5:35
Five, yeah, yeah. But it's funny, I thought like,
5:39
I did it, I got my insurance, I'm all set.
5:43
And I was like, no, you're not. That's not even.
5:45
There's just like no information like really about exactly what
5:51
happened. Or maybe it's just me.
5:52
I just thought it was going to work out.
5:53
You were a pioneer. I guess so, yeah.
5:56
I guess I was, yeah. But well, I mean, I, yeah, the
5:59
fact that they didn't, I think, I think other people had had egg
6:02
freezing as a as a topic, but then they didn't like show it.
6:05
They'd be like, I'm thinking about it.
6:07
And then they're like, I'm pregnant.
6:08
It's something you say at a dinner party.
6:10
I'm freezing. My eyes, Yeah, he's like.
6:14
But now no one would care. No good.
6:16
Good work, yeah. And so when did you decide to do
6:19
the show? To do dead inside.
6:22
Yes. It was like maybe a year after
6:25
my son was born and I had all these people calling me asking
6:28
me for fertility advice and it was like friends of friends of
6:32
friends. It would be cuz nobody knew
6:34
anything and nobody knew who to talk to.
6:36
And so people were calling me about adoption or sperm donation
6:39
or surrogacy or any of these things.
6:42
And I was like. You're like an expert.
6:44
I was kind of an unofficial, well, I would say like I'm not
6:46
an I was like, this is only my experience.
6:48
I don't know anything. It's just me.
6:50
Yes, but this is what happened. And then I'd had all these
6:52
conversations and I was like, oh, people don't know anything.
6:55
I need to maybe right about this.
6:58
Yeah, like they they knew nothing.
6:59
They go do I need to buy an egg and then stick it?
7:03
Yeah, I'm. Like no, no, no, you need to.
7:06
Hey you. Need to take the chicken?
7:08
You need to take all your money and light it on fire.
7:10
Yeah, it probably won't work. Because it's expensive, isn't
7:13
it? Oh.
7:13
My gosh, everything is. So they spare you no expense?
7:17
Yeah, no expense. Yeah.
7:20
And so you sat down. Was this during COVID that you
7:24
started? Yeah, it would just be phone
7:26
calls. It would just be.
7:28
Yeah, it was because my son was born in 20.
7:31
Well, I guess I don't know, maybe not during, depends on how
7:33
you define COVID, because it was, he was born in 2022.
7:36
So it was kind of around then. OK, that all these cops.
7:39
COVID baby. Yes, that I did have a mask on
7:42
when he was born. So I guess still COVID.
7:45
Yeah, but it wasn't like 2020. So you thought with all this
7:51
knowledge and stuff I should do a show out of this?
7:55
Yeah, it just seemed so extreme what I was doing and I'm like,
7:59
feels. Like, and.
7:59
Nobody's written a show about this, no.
8:03
There hasn't been, there's been like, it's been like a sort of
8:06
side plot and things, but there's never been that I've
8:08
seen. No, at least not a musical
8:09
comedy. I looked because I didn't want
8:12
to like accidentally make the same show as someone else.
8:14
Were you nervous? The Google search, like, I hope
8:17
nobody's done it. Yeah.
8:19
I what? Literally.
8:20
Merman. Yeah, like damn.
8:22
No. But at the same time it's like
8:24
almost good if you could see someone else's because then
8:25
you're like, OK, so I won't do that area.
8:27
I'll. Do it different.
8:28
Because you don't want to do the same terrain.
8:30
And I was like, oh, I have free rain.
8:31
Yeah, there's nothing. It's your oyster, yes?
8:35
Yes, now I've taken it all. Now the second person's going to
8:38
have. Trouble.
8:38
It's going to be a problem, so I wanted it all.
8:41
I'll start. When you were writing, did you
8:43
just go? What are some ideas about it?
8:46
Or did you read chronological? Because I'm like songs are where
8:49
I'm comfortable. So I started writing just funny
8:51
songs just to see if I could do it because it felt kind of like
8:54
a high degree of difficulty topic to make funny.
8:57
And so I started with and once I had like 5 songs I was like OK,
9:00
now I'm going to write them. How do you approach songs?
9:03
Do you do lyrics first? Yeah, yeah.
9:05
How do you write songs? I write songs like this, no.
9:12
Just off the top of. Your head.
9:14
So sometimes it goes either way if I've got a melody, but mostly
9:18
words first. Yeah, yeah.
9:20
I don't even understand how people do melody first.
9:22
I know it like breaks my brain. I'm like, what?
9:26
Like it doesn't. So I do lyrics first.
9:28
What about the Elton John's musical partner?
9:33
You would mail him? Yeah, he would mail him his
9:37
poetry and they never really met in a room.
9:40
It's insane. Yes.
9:42
God, yeah, that's, yeah, that's nuts.
9:45
So you wrote the songs first? And then I played them out at
9:49
some comedy clubs to see, like, are these funny?
9:51
And like, at first, like, not really.
9:54
Like I was like, OK, I need to add more jokes.
9:55
I needed to. Yeah.
9:56
And then I just, I kind of workshopped them for like a
9:58
month or two. And then I was like, OK, I think
10:00
I have something here. And then I signed up for
10:02
Edinburgh because I never really performed alone.
10:06
This was like I was always in a duo, really.
10:08
Yeah, some pre Garfunkel notes. Not really, no.
10:13
I like maybe this small one off thing here or there, but like
10:16
not really. It like doesn't count.
10:18
And so I was like, well I'll do Edinburgh.
10:21
Then I have to perform alone for like a full month.
10:23
What venue did you do? Unpleasants.
10:26
Nice, yeah. It was nice, it was good.
10:29
It was. Good venue.
10:30
Yes, it was a very good venue. I was.
10:32
I had really good time. And but.
10:35
It was hard. It's hard in that what?
10:39
Well, I I did 2 shows because I had another musical just
10:42
happened to go there after I'd already signed up for one.
10:44
So I had two shows a day and I had my 2 year old there.
10:47
So it was like it was. AI can't imagine.
10:51
It was a whole thing and I didn't get to like, have the
10:52
experience of seeing a lot of other people's shows.
10:55
Oh no, you want to see everything.
10:57
Yeah, I didn't go out. I didn't because you just can't
10:59
like with your. You have to go do a bath and
11:01
give your. You have to bathe, no?
11:03
I had to give my son his bath and his story and stuff, so I
11:07
would go home and do that. So it was kind of a weird.
11:11
Yeah, it. Wasn't like the traditional
11:12
experience, but the actual performing was really fun.
11:15
Well, good for you for doing that.
11:17
It was cool. Wow.
11:18
Yeah, I used to have a system where I would see shows far away
11:26
and then as it got closer to the end I just see shows at my venue
11:30
cuz it's smart, yeah. You can just.
11:33
Yeah, and I'd also lose my voice once every festival.
11:37
You have to, That's part of it. And then that would be a sign
11:41
that I had to go to sleep, right?
11:43
Yeah, everyone was sick. Everyone.
11:44
I didn't realise that they're like, no, everyone gets COVID,
11:46
everyone's sick. And I was like, I'm going to try
11:49
to stay out. And then I was immediately.
11:50
Like, were there Covids? I got COVID for the first time
11:53
in Edinboro. It was like the day I got there.
11:56
I think I got it at sound check. It was like.
11:58
Yeah, and what did you do? I went to bed for like a week or
12:02
like whatever. I went early to do tech and so I
12:05
missed my first two shows and then I was good after that.
12:09
That's very smart to go early, get things going, yeah.
12:14
Because I didn't know what to expect.
12:16
I didn't know that everything was so running.
12:18
It was just that everyone was kind of just like, let's go.
12:21
I felt unprepared and I was like, everyone feels that.
12:24
I didn't realise that. Yeah, yeah.
12:25
I thought other people knew what they were doing and I was like.
12:28
No, a lot of people don't know what the Hell's going on.
12:32
Yes, Yeah, I didn't, I didn't realise that.
12:35
Yeah. You done Edinburgh a lot.
12:36
Well now they do. I've done it about 9 times over
12:39
the years. But now they have these work in
12:43
progress things. That's good.
12:45
Some people do the festival with just doing a work in progress.
12:49
I guess I did too, Yeah. I'd only performed it twice
12:53
before I went and I'd done it just off.
12:54
I had like a notebook. I was reading it out of a
12:57
notebook that was, so I guess it was.
12:59
I still didn't. Know my line?
13:00
That's very LA. Yeah, yeah.
13:02
My first few performances in Edinburgh, I didn't know my
13:05
lines yet. And so by the end of it, though,
13:08
how did you feel? Really good yeah I was like cuz
13:11
every day we'd add. My director wanted to add huge
13:14
changes every day, but my brain was so full that I was like 1
13:17
change a day. That's all I can because I have
13:19
to remember a full hour of dialogue.
13:22
And so, yeah, so we would do one change a day and then every day
13:25
it got like a little better. And then So what happened after
13:27
that? You went back to LA?
13:29
I went back to LA and I'm like, well, what happens?
13:31
And everyone's like, what do you mean?
13:33
And I'm like, what do we what do we do with this?
13:35
Come on. Yeah.
13:36
Everyone's like, I don't know what you're talking about.
13:38
I'm like. OK, I want a Tony.
13:40
Yes. Yeah.
13:41
No, exactly. I was like, I wanna do, or at
13:43
least I wanna perform it again, like what do I do?
13:45
Yeah. And then eventually I I got Ali
13:50
Wong and Bill Hader came aboard as exec producers and that
13:53
really helped it get attention. Did you know them before?
13:57
I did well, I knew Allie for a long time.
13:58
Bill, I'd only met a couple times, but Bill is really close
14:02
friends with my husband. And so Bill's assistant saw the
14:06
show in Edinburgh and Bill said, oh, what was your favourite show
14:10
in Edinburgh? And she's like, oh, this show
14:12
dead inside. And so he, like I said, Freddy
14:14
was like this. She said it was the best show
14:15
she saw in Edinburgh. And Fred's like she's doing it
14:18
Friday. And so they came to see it at a.
14:19
Small place in LA because I. Would just perform.
14:22
It. No, the Elysian.
14:24
Yeah, the Mbar. No, the Elysian.
14:25
So I just did it like kind of once a month in LA was trying to
14:28
keep it alive. And then once they came on
14:31
board, I got a theatre agent and it started touring and that kind
14:35
of brought it to life. It's so hard when you go back to
14:40
LA because it's so it's not conducive to doing that sort of
14:45
thing. And Edinburgh's so
14:46
all-encompassing that you think like, if you feel like so ready
14:50
to do. And people are like, oh, you
14:51
left and you're like, yeah, no, I made this whole thing and.
14:54
Because I talked to a lot of comics on this show and they go,
14:57
they're never more prepared than when the end of Edinburgh.
15:01
They're so up for it. But if they go away from it for
15:05
a while, it just goes. It just dies, yeah.
15:09
It's dead inside. It's dead inside.
15:11
I know I got depressed. I was like, I really wanted to
15:13
keep going and I was like, I don't know what.
15:15
To do I know, I know. It's almost like, you know,
15:19
you're landing from the moon mission and you go into one of
15:23
those trailers. And you're just like, no, it's
15:26
like, yeah, you're taking off roller skates and now you're
15:28
just walking. Like I'm like so.
15:29
Slow. I hate it.
15:30
Yeah, I. Don't know what's going on.
15:32
Did you keep touring your shows after Edinburgh?
15:34
I tried some of them. I did some of them.
15:37
I I would come back here and then cry.
15:44
Yeah. Same, I fully cried on.
15:48
Some I was it. It depends on the show.
15:51
I would go. There would be Australia,
15:54
sometimes we would go in New Zealand.
15:56
Would you do Melbourne? Or would you do?
15:58
Yeah, yeah. And Adelaide and it it all
16:02
depended on how much popularity there, right?
16:06
Right, right. But sometimes you could just do
16:10
it every every time if you wanted to.
16:15
But. Yeah, some people afterwards are
16:17
like, well, now you just make another show.
16:18
I'm like, no, this is. The Yeah, yeah, this is the one.
16:21
This. Is the I'm telling you this is
16:23
not like this is the one. Guys, I cannot believe this, but
16:27
it's been a year since we've had our first podcast with Dan
16:32
Clark. Can you believe it?
16:35
I can't believe it. And you know what we've decided
16:38
to do? We're going to do a live show
16:41
the 11th of April. That's a Saturday at the Moth
16:46
Club. So go on the Moth Club website
16:50
and get you tickies because it's going to sell out fast.
16:54
Mother F Watts. OK, All right, See you there
17:00
live. The The problem nowadays, I
17:04
think is we have so much control.
17:07
I always have a problem because I can't decide what's my next
17:12
career step. I.
17:14
Know it's such a weird, it's like a champagne problem, but
17:16
it's such a real problem. I don't know any creative person
17:19
who's like totally sure about what they should be working on
17:21
every day. Every day when I wake up, I'm
17:23
like, what is the best? Unless you have like an acting
17:26
job to go to, then you're like OK that one otherwise.
17:29
Because in the old days, it was all set for you.
17:32
I do my puppet show. I get on Carol Burnett that I
17:37
get on Jackpot, you get. A handshake?
17:40
Yeah, you get a handshake from Johnny Carson and then you get
17:42
your own sitcom and that's. It I get a bungalow in Florida.
17:46
Exactly. Yeah, instead it's.
17:48
But now it's like, oh, do I go online?
17:51
Do I sell myself on YouTube? Do I get an agent?
17:54
Another agent? I just did it all.
17:56
I sell myself on YouTube and yeah, I started on YouTube in
18:00
2007. You.
18:01
Did. Yeah.
18:02
It started in 2006, yeah. Yeah.
18:06
What? Yeah, you really are a pioneer.
18:10
I guess well the problem with being a pioneer is you do stuff
18:12
before people figure out how to get paid for it.
18:15
So like I was like a YouTube star in like 2007 or 8 and it
18:18
was like 2012 when they made money and I was.
18:20
Like wait you can put ads on it? Like yes.
18:22
We missed it. No, I mean we still could ads on
18:26
it. Yes, we put ads on it like
18:28
later, but you can't catch up from that initial.
18:33
I know I'm just starting. Really.
18:36
I mean, this podcast is only a year old and I'm like, I've got.
18:40
So I didn't even do the COVID, you know, Yeah.
18:44
It was hard. There was a lot of there was too
18:46
many podcasts and. COVID life's hard there.
18:48
Was there was too many podcasts and COVID though?
18:50
It was too like. Yeah, because everybody would do
18:55
it consistently. Now I read this weird statistic
18:59
like there's only 1% that go beyond 30 weekly episodes.
19:05
Really of a podcast. OK.
19:06
That makes sense. That actually makes me kind of
19:08
feel better. Good.
19:09
No, it does, right? Cuz it's hard.
19:12
Yeah, it seems easy and it's really hard to do.
19:15
I feel that way about comedy music cuz people feel like it's
19:18
so easy. And I'm like, OK, write 50
19:21
songs. Like you can write 1 short.
19:23
Anyone could write. Maybe, probably people could
19:25
rate 10, but I'm like rate 50. Yeah.
19:27
And then talk to. Me, it separates people.
19:30
It really does the amount of work you put into that.
19:33
Yeah, yeah, probably the same for a.
19:35
Podcast, yeah. This room is cool.
19:38
It is. I like the soundproofing.
19:40
Yeah, it's very good soundproofing.
19:43
How did you find it? I have people that worked.
19:48
I like the fact that it's near Soho Theatre.
19:51
So when did you do you did Washington, DC?
19:55
Yes, last summer. So how did that happen?
19:58
It was once Ali and Bill signed on, I had this theatre agent who
20:02
is amazing and he just sent it around to all these places and
20:05
then they wanted to do it. So I did it for like 6 weeks.
20:08
What theatre in the? Woolly mammoth.
20:10
Oh, nice, yeah. It was great.
20:11
It was like it was a real, it's, it was, it was the direct
20:15
opposite of Edinburgh where like theatre is like, you know, it's
20:19
very slow and methodical and serious.
20:21
And yeah, it was like such a change that it was like, it was
20:24
interesting. I'm like, I think my personality
20:26
is like in the middle of those. Two, right?
20:28
I think not as chaotic. Yes, not as chaotic as
20:30
Edinburgh, but not as like thought out as as DC.
20:34
I'm like somewhere in the middle.
20:35
Yeah, DC chaotic. The professional.
20:38
I used to live there. You did.
20:39
Professional crowd. Yes, yes, like lots of people
20:44
working on it, which was nice. I'm like, I have a lighting
20:47
design. OK, great.
20:49
I have a coffee person, yeah. Didn't have that, but I had
20:54
pretty much everything else. I had a stage manager.
20:56
I was like, look. At me.
20:58
Yeah, yeah, that was kind of fun.
21:00
And so that ended last year. Yes.
21:03
And then I was like dying to get, it's like the same thing as
21:06
Edinburgh that I'm dying to get it to another place.
21:08
And now here I. Am here you are.
21:10
What's gonna happen after this? I don't know.
21:12
I think there's, I think there I might be going to New York.
21:15
We're still figuring it out. But it's in Hawaii.
21:17
Then Hawaii, yes. Then Alaska, no.
21:20
I, I don't know where. After that, it's hard.
21:22
To go on Broadway, Oh my gosh. That'd be amazing, but it's
21:26
like, it's the I've got like a caravan, you know, cuz I've got
21:29
my son and Andy. I've got like a crew.
21:32
You've got a team. Yeah, I've been slowly getting
21:35
this team together. Yeah, I how many people?
21:40
Like, I think it's seven people came here total to help me with
21:44
the Soho show. That's great, though, because
21:47
it's like you've got all the support when things are going
21:51
awry, right? Yeah, like last night.
21:55
When my when we had to move in the middle of the night.
21:58
What happened? There was, well there was we got
22:01
this Airbnb that was the beds had bugs in them like in the
22:05
mattresses, but. Didn't you read the fine print?
22:07
I didn't. I didn't our.
22:08
Beds had the finest bugs in London.
22:11
It was so gross. It was really, really gross.
22:14
We were just like, I'm not gonna fall asleep.
22:16
Did you see the bugs faces? I don't know.
22:19
I did videotape them and we texted it to the owner and they
22:23
were like, we'll come over with a vacuum.
22:24
And I was like. Yeah, these.
22:26
That's Fred. That's George.
22:28
I'm. Like, oh, God, yeah, no, it's so
22:30
gross. So we just moved all our stuff
22:33
last night, and now we're gonna find a new place to live.
22:36
Yeah. I don't have much space.
22:39
No, that's OK. You don't want to house 5.
22:41
People, the garage has some room.
22:43
I want to live with my 4 year old.
22:44
Yeah, it's really quiet. It's how is the kid?
22:47
He's the best. He's such a good traveller.
22:49
It's it's crazy. Like he was totally fine to.
22:52
Like, he's like in his pyjamas and we're like walking to this
22:54
hotel. Here's the thing.
22:56
I think this is good because kids are adaptable if they get
23:00
used to it early. He's so used to it.
23:03
Like the peanut allergies? Yes, they have it early.
23:07
I think they're fine. Well, there's those allergy.
23:10
Have you seen these little allergy sticks They have now.
23:12
They're like little powders. Tell me more You there's like,
23:15
it's like peanut butter almond, like oysters, like all the stuff
23:18
and they they just. Oysters, yeah.
23:19
You just put a little bit of like shellfish, you put a.
23:21
Little bit stings. Yeah, but you put powder in
23:24
their baby food, these like little tiny bits and they and
23:26
it's like makes it less likely for them to develop allergies.
23:29
That's a great idea. So he like got when he was
23:32
little, we just had all these powders.
23:33
That is an idea for this age. It is.
23:36
It's amazing. What else do they have?
23:39
What are people allergic to? A lot.
23:42
What else was in there? No, I.
23:44
Think soy was in there I my son's only allergies.
23:49
Yes, exactly. He had a ginger allergy, but now
23:51
that's gone too, which is just so strange.
23:53
He was, he used to be allergic to ginger and apples and
23:57
walnuts. Oh, nuts.
23:58
Nuts were in there too, but now they're gone.
24:00
I had allergies when I was little.
24:02
You did, you know you had those tests where they put drops on
24:05
cats? It was the word.
24:07
I'm still allergic. You are.
24:09
Yeah, my husband's allergic to all animals and so my son can't
24:13
have a pet. He's so.
24:15
Bummed like that. I still we still have a cat.
24:18
You do, even though you're allergic.
24:20
I have an inhaler I used to use it.
24:22
That's how much you like cats. No, I just like my family.
24:27
OK? OK.
24:27
Oh my gosh. No.
24:29
But it's not a like some cats are more allergic than others,
24:33
so this one isn't that bad, right?
24:35
Yeah, you're still nice to do that.
24:38
I don't know if we'll get another one after this one dies.
24:42
Do you guys have the drops here, the allergy drops?
24:45
No, you get, you get blood tests, blood work done and they
24:49
do bespoke allergy drops that you put like under your tongue.
24:53
I want to get there. For like 2 years and then it's
24:55
supposed to get rid of your allergies.
24:56
Also, you know what they have is cat food that will get rid of
25:00
the dander. Really.
25:02
Yeah. This is amazing.
25:04
But here's the problem. The cat does not like it.
25:08
In no sense. You've literally got to shove it
25:10
down his throat, Yeah. That's not a fun.
25:13
Oh my gosh. That's one thing I learned as a
25:16
parent where you can't, you cannot force someone to eat.
25:19
You just can't. I would like, I remember before
25:21
I was a parent, I was like, well, I'm gonna have my kid eat.
25:23
It was like, no, if they it is, you can't put some, you can't.
25:27
No, if they don't, you can threaten them with no iPad or
25:32
whatever but. You do the aeroplane.
25:35
Do the He's 4, so he's not amused by that anymore.
25:39
OK. Yeah, the train, no.
25:42
I should try that. I should he likes horses.
25:44
I should try a horse. The.
25:45
Horse, Yeah. I should try that.
25:47
But you want them to, but they can't or they don't.
25:52
What do you do right? Yeah, you can't actually.
25:55
Yeah, they'll like choke. I like, didn't think that
25:57
through. I was like, oh, you've actually.
25:59
Did you do the baby LED weaning where you put the food on the
26:04
plate and then they just eat it I.
26:07
Know I don't what does. That mean, I think that was more
26:10
how is that different from you introducing them to solid foods?
26:13
Oh, OK. It's just sort of put them out
26:16
there so that they. And you let them?
26:18
Yeah. I don't think we did that.
26:19
No. Oh.
26:20
That's all. Right.
26:20
Yeah. I was like, I'm trying to think
26:22
of how that's different than just eating.
26:26
You put it on a plate and then you like that sounds.
26:28
Like, I don't know the details, Ricky.
26:30
That sounds like how like eating like.
26:32
Here's the. Food, well, it's baby LED
26:35
though. OK, You don't leave the food.
26:38
So if they don't select it, yes you don't.
26:40
You let them select like a buffet, right?
26:43
They have to be on a Lazy Susan, right?
26:46
They're. Like that's what my son does now
26:49
he's just like. So this baby has been on lots of
26:53
sets, yeah. He's been in Edinburgh and in
26:56
New York and he was in DC with me.
26:58
He's here. He slept the whole plane ride.
27:02
He just is such a good traveller.
27:04
It's crazy cuz but I have a lot of travel rules.
27:07
I have like hacks that I got from other travel moms.
27:10
You did. What's the hack for the baby?
27:12
The biggest hack is, is, well, basically when he's on the
27:15
plane, it's like unlimited iPad, unlimited iPad on planes.
27:19
So he's like looking forward to it, but no iPad in the airport.
27:22
You have to save everything. No treats in.
27:24
The. Airport, nothing in the airport.
27:25
So he's like waiting to sit and then he's like, he gets like he
27:29
gets a plane. We pick out an aeroplane snack
27:31
at the thing and then he gets one snack from home, 1 aeroplane
27:34
snack. And then I get him like that
27:36
cheese grape plate if they have it, yes.
27:39
And so he thinks of it like a vacation.
27:40
Denial of pleasure? Yes, On the plane.
27:43
Pleasure. Pleasure.
27:44
Exactly. That's exactly it.
27:46
It's like you can't watch any Ryan Reynolds movies till you
27:49
get on the plane. Just Friends is on the plane.
27:52
That's the only right movie I. Could yes.
27:54
What was that one where Sandra Bullock?
27:58
The proposal I like. That one, yeah, that one's good.
28:02
And then they wind up together. It is.
28:05
I actually like that movie for real.
28:06
It's not bad, I like it. Yeah.
28:08
It made me laugh. I was just saying to the guests
28:11
before this, which is not it's OK that I had another guest.
28:19
Well, you told me it was just going to be me.
28:21
I thought this was our show. But no, it is for the most part
28:26
that I will watch anything on a plane.
28:28
Me too that I don't normally watch.
28:30
Anything I will watch, I watched one of those like Maze Hunter or
28:34
like not Hunger Games, but there's one like Hunger Games
28:36
that's not hunger. Games Maze hunter is that.
28:38
Real. Where's the next maze?
28:40
It's. Something like that.
28:41
It might be called. It's something.
28:43
Do you know what I'm talking about?
28:45
Yeah, there's some. I can do one better.
28:48
What it's conclave? What's Conclave?
28:51
How they select the Pope. Yeah, that's.
28:54
It was actually not bad. I'm sure it's not.
28:56
But I would have never sat down at home, no.
29:00
With a bag of bugles and God, I want to watch Conclave.
29:05
Right? It's only when you're on this
29:06
tube. Yeah, with wings, right?
29:09
Yeah, it does. And it the movies are kind of
29:11
better up there. I feel like I have more emotions
29:13
when I'm in the sky. I know I can cry easy.
29:16
I can, yeah. Now, has this ever happened to
29:18
you? What?
29:19
You're on the plane because you've been in enough films
29:23
right where you walk down the aisle and you see you're on.
29:27
Somebody's watching you on the plane.
29:29
That's only happened to me once and it was, it was like a long
29:33
time ago and it was I was on everyone's TV because it was
29:37
Remember when they used to just play all the same things on the
29:39
TV's? They're like.
29:39
Today, the years ago. Yeah, it was.
29:42
I was on Big Bang Theory and my episode was on The Thing and I
29:44
was like, but I had red hair and so like nobody really recognised
29:47
me. And then the the flight
29:49
attendant recognised me and she announced it in The Thing and I
29:52
was like, hey you. Know now what was the quote you
29:56
said because this is such a big quote that they before a certain
30:01
era they never allowed two women to have the same.
30:05
Totally. It's hair colour.
30:07
It is totally true. I was and I was always like, I'm
30:10
sort of like in between types. Like I was never getting like
30:12
the lead. I was, I wasn't, I wasn't quite
30:14
a character actor, not quite the lead.
30:16
So I was always the one that had to change their hair colour.
30:18
Like I like if there was, if there was a blonde, I had to
30:20
cheat, if I just would always have to dye my hair.
30:22
And then like my I still have hair extensions.
30:24
My hair just kind of all fell out.
30:26
Ricky has a closet. Her contract?
30:28
No hair dyeing. But it's funny because I dyed it
30:31
for Big Bang Theory in like season 3 and then they brought
30:34
me back like 10 years later for whatever, you know, right, For
30:37
season 10 or 12. Or whatever it's better with you
30:39
in a thank. You.
30:40
Yeah. And they didn't make me dye it.
30:42
I just got to be blonde again. And I was like OK, so the rule
30:45
had somehow changed. The red suddenly disappeared.
30:49
Yeah. But you see, like friends, like
30:50
all those three guys have the exact same hair colour.
30:52
It's fine. And the women have to all be
30:54
different. Never even thought of that.
30:56
Any show ever and all the women they have to, it's weird.
31:00
They have those sisters and they have to have different hair
31:02
colours. They just, they think that the
31:04
executives, I think, thought that people would mix us up.
31:08
I'm like Kaylee quote. I don't look that much alike.
31:10
Right. I guess maybe the grand scheme
31:12
of people we might, but not enough where people be like
31:15
which one is that? Did you guys hang out?
31:18
Yeah, I love that whole cast. They're really, really great.
31:21
They. Seem like, I mean, of course,
31:24
being on for so long, they've gotta hang out.
31:27
Yeah, there's a reason why that. I mean, other than the show
31:30
being really good. It was like everyone was just
31:32
like kind of the exact same 10 years later where I was like,
31:35
cuz you come back after they're all superstars and you wonder
31:38
and it was like, Oh no, they're all still friends.
31:41
They're all, you know, they just have like, they just have like
31:43
better cars. Yes, but they were all still
31:45
super professional. More cars.
31:47
Yes, more cars. Yeah, and when did was the kid
31:50
on the Wednesday set? No, because I had him two weeks
31:54
after Wednesday wrapped or for me so they were everyone else
31:57
was still going but I wrapped and then cuz when I booked the
31:59
show I was like I had I was just about to like put implant the
32:06
baby into my surrogate and I was like so I have to be out by.
32:10
Wait, you implanted the baby? Or the doctor.
32:12
Oh, OK. I thought this is.
32:14
Interesting. Yeah, we're actually, I think it
32:16
might have been, it might have been after the implant, but we
32:18
were waiting to see if it was working.
32:20
It was like right in that thing. And I was like, there's a chance
32:22
I'm going to be having a child in March and they're like,
32:24
you're pregnant. And I was like, no, so that
32:26
won't affect the show, but I need to be out by the state.
32:28
And they were like, great. And so.
32:31
Yeah. What about the next Wednesday
32:34
Are you? No, cuz my character dies.
32:37
Yeah, it's such a. Bummer.
32:39
It's no. It's like it took me like 20
32:41
years to be on a hit and then I my character dies.
32:43
I'm like man, my. Kids love the show, isn't?
32:46
It great, yeah, but my character was always gonna die.
32:49
I can't take it personally. Like my character was when I
32:51
signed my contract, I was like, it's just a one season and
32:53
they're like, yeah, you die. And I was like, OK, I.
32:56
Know it's good and bad. I know because now they do that.
33:00
They kill people off. Yeah.
33:03
And something exciting else happened on Wednesday.
33:07
Oh, Fred. Yes, I didn't even know about
33:11
this we. Didn't really tell anyone it was
33:12
you. Didn't tell me.
33:13
It was, I'm so sorry. I should have, I should have
33:16
told you first. I'm sorry.
33:17
But no, it wasn't even it wasn't really even like a secret.
33:20
It just was like such a big time in my life that I didn't even
33:23
like have time to see anyone. So I didn't just, I just, I was
33:27
in Romania for seven months, so like.
33:30
For Wednesday, so. Like nobody knew that, Yeah.
33:34
And caressed. And I just wanted people to know
33:37
I knew that. Oh yeah, you did.
33:38
Yeah. It's some people think it's
33:41
Budapest, but it's that's a. Different.
33:42
No, that's not great. That's a different country, but
33:45
yeah. And then we fell in love, like
33:46
right before my son was born. It was wild.
33:50
How did it happen? I basically told him that I was
33:56
into him, like, yeah. So you had had this happened
34:01
before Wednesday or? No, it was like, so we worked
34:06
together right before I left for Wednesday and we were like, we
34:09
were in this music video together and I and then like
34:14
Kate and I worked with him and Kate was like, you know, he's
34:15
single. And I was like, because he's
34:17
just never been single. And I was like, oh, interesting.
34:20
I was like, well, I'm going to Romania, who cares?
34:22
Like I'm leaving anyway. So I just left and then he
34:25
texted me. He's like I got cast in the
34:26
show. That's uncle faster.
34:28
Yeah. And he's like, I'm coming to
34:29
Romania and I was like, interesting.
34:32
And then? OK.
34:33
Yeah. And then he.
34:34
Like lot thickens. Yeah, he did not flirt with me
34:36
at all. We all hung out in like groups.
34:39
But we I saw him like almost every day, like we had dinner,
34:41
like every single. Day, but that's the best way.
34:43
Yeah, keep it cool. Yes, and like there was a curfew
34:46
because of COVID. Like there was no like late
34:48
night, there was no like, way to organically, yeah, see if he was
34:53
into me. So I just texted him that I
34:56
thought he should be my boyfriend.
34:58
And he was like, he was like, what?
34:59
And I was like, I know, Well, I do.
35:02
And then? Sometimes you have to accelerate
35:04
the process. I mean, we've been friends for
35:06
so long. Yeah.
35:08
I, I wasn't like, you know, I just kind of wanted to know like
35:13
if that if. He was interested.
35:15
We're here. Yeah.
35:16
Yeah. I was like.
35:17
What do you think? And he was like basically said
35:20
yes. So was it that he needed that
35:23
jolt? Well, it it's just it's hard to
35:27
hit on someone on when you're working.
35:29
So I actually waited until his last day.
35:32
Because people have these innate rules about work and.
35:36
It felt unprofessional and so I waited till he finished his last
35:39
shoot day and then I told him that I asked him that night
35:42
because I didn't want to make him like uncomfortable because
35:44
we were, because he was still having to see me every night for
35:46
dinner and like I didn't want it.
35:47
I didn't want it to be weird. Boy, what a wrap that was.
35:50
So I. Just waited and then because I I
35:52
did feel like unprofessional. So it was like.
35:54
And how soon after that did you get married?
35:57
Like 3 1/2 months later. But it did all built up to that
36:02
point. It was a long time coming, I
36:04
think, yeah. Well, that's so great.
36:06
Yeah, it was. It was.
36:07
Yeah. Now we've been married four
36:09
years. So shocking.
36:11
Yeah. I didn't think we'd get married.
36:13
I thought I was going to be a single mom with a boyfriend,
36:15
which kind of sounded cool to me.
36:16
Yeah. I was like, oh, look at me, you
36:18
know? Yeah, and now you're just like
36:19
everybody. Yeah, but yeah, it was shocking.
36:25
And are there a lot of surprises about being married that you're
36:28
surprised about yourself? I'm surprised that I like it.
36:31
I never. Really like Tupperware.
36:34
I just never thought I'd be married.
36:36
I never wanted to. And I was very surprised that I
36:38
wanted to. I was stunned that I wanted to.
36:41
Oh, so you never had these married feelings before?
36:44
It was an issue in my relationships because I'd be
36:46
like just so you, I would kind of say upfront like or when we,
36:49
when it felt like we were together, I'd be like, I never
36:51
want that. So if that's a problem just
36:53
that's not going to be for me. It seems like because of all
36:57
this chaos, it just sort of happens.
37:00
Yeah, yeah. It's I don't know what are your
37:02
thoughts on marriage in general. I think it's not right for
37:06
everyone. So it has to be at a right place
37:11
and time as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree.
37:14
Yeah. Because it was right for me,
37:16
yeah. How did you know?
37:17
Like what was the impetus? It was just like, it was just a
37:21
natural flowing, like normally when I'm going out with someone,
37:25
it was sort of like maybe when is this possibly going to end,
37:29
right? Whereas this was like, what's
37:31
the next step? And then it was just a natural
37:34
thing. Yeah, same.
37:36
Yeah, it was. It was weird and also lucky how
37:39
many things like lined up for us.
37:41
Like, as far as like, our natural ways of doing things
37:44
were very similar. We were like, weird.
37:47
That's important, yeah. Yeah.
37:50
And also, yeah. And also our, our strengths are
37:52
different, which was kind of nice.
37:54
Like our parenting strengths are different.
37:56
Oh really? What's your parenting strength?
37:58
I think like the like sort of like the warmth, like I'm like
38:03
Mama, I'm like, you know, like if he like gets hurt, it's like,
38:07
you know, I'm like, you know, I like, you know, I just like sing
38:10
to him, you know, I'm like the warm.
38:13
Yes, And Fred's like the class clown one.
38:15
He's like the entertainment. Oh, I thought you were gonna say
38:18
he's the disciplinarian. No, that's more me.
38:21
Oh, really? Yeah, that's more me.
38:22
Yeah. Loving but strict.
38:25
Yes, yeah, like very like Mama bear, like I got you, but like,
38:29
you know. Watch your stuff.
38:31
Yes, yes, that's me. And he's more like cool Dad.
38:36
Like making him cool. Yeah.
38:38
I'm going to ask Dad before I ask Mom.
38:40
Right. Well, he luckily he knows that
38:42
doesn't work. Yeah, he's fooled Fred a couple
38:44
times, but mostly no. Right.
38:47
Mostly Fred. Yeah, he's fooled him a couple
38:51
times where he. Wait, and your kids name is
38:54
Keaton? Keaton.
38:55
Yeah. What a great name.
38:56
Thank you. Oh my gosh.
38:59
So listen Ricky, I have a set format in the show.
39:04
Great. And I ask you 5 questions, OK?
39:07
One has a blank in it. OK?
39:09
It's called fill in the blank. OK, Are you ready?
39:12
Yes, I'm ready. OK, it doesn't have to be funny.
39:15
OK, OK, blank is the biggest mistake I've made this week.
39:22
Moving into the Airbnb that I chose, that was the beds were
39:25
filled with amps. That's that's so easy.
39:27
You don't have to name what it was a hotel.
39:31
Well, it's not a hotel, it was an Airbnb.
39:33
OK, Yeah, yeah. Don't name it.
39:35
OK, don't give the address. I would like to yell blank at
39:42
the most inappropriate time during a show.
39:46
Boring. Your show or a show?
39:50
A show? Don't you want to?
39:51
Don't. You want to yell that when it's
39:52
boring. You want to be like I'm bored.
39:54
Or speed it up. Yes, yeah, yeah.
39:58
Louder. You're not on a film set.
40:03
You should yell that at my show. No, no, I know during my part.
40:08
Yes, this guy's SO. This guy's awful.
40:13
I'm sorry, I've tried but I just can't understand blank Oh.
40:20
God, so many things TikTok. You don't understand tik.
40:27
T.O.K no, I just don't know how to do it really.
40:29
I just I put up my same things from like that go on YouTube and
40:32
like nobody likes them. And I'm like, why it's?
40:34
Just not the right for it. TikTok is more like talking to,
40:38
you know, I don't know. I heard TikTok is a minute now
40:42
you need to have is that true? I don't know, I just, it's just
40:46
I, I like to watch it, yeah, but I just don't have like the, the
40:49
TikTok gene as far as like what to do on there.
40:52
Here's how bad I am. I got on and I somehow got
40:56
denied and it's like application denied.
40:59
For get to get verified. Me too like 5 times.
41:03
No, but I'm not even on it. I can't even post anything.
41:07
Account. Yeah, what?
41:09
I can't even get an account. What?
41:11
Because I wanted to get a specific name and they go, you
41:15
need to apply before the board of TikTok or something like
41:19
that. I don't know what's going on
41:21
TikTok. You can't get your own name.
41:24
Well, I have rich underline underscore faulture.
41:28
I can't get it because I did something wrong the first time
41:32
and then they denied me or so I don't know, a lawyer.
41:37
Very sad. Dad as in loser.
41:43
If my house or apartment were burning I could only take one
41:47
thing besides family members. It would be blank.
41:52
Mine's so boring my computer. That's got everything in it.
41:56
It's got. Everything because I don't have
41:58
a lot of stuff, but I like photos and videos.
42:01
That's all my memories. Yeah, it would just be my.
42:04
Computer. Isn't it in the cloud?
42:06
No, I can't use the cloud. What?
42:09
No, I get hacked too much. My cloud's been hacked several
42:11
times, so I just don't use it. Like if someone stole my
42:14
computer. I'm like I have it backed up to
42:16
actual physical hard drives but I don't have anything in the
42:20
cloud. Really.
42:22
I didn't know that. Yeah, you can hack a cloud.
42:24
Yeah, yeah, I, I've been to Target several times.
42:28
I think any female comedian that you have on here, if you ask
42:31
them if their cloud's been hacked, they'll say yes.
42:34
And then I went to the Apple Store and I'm like, hey, can I?
42:36
I wanted. And they wouldn't let me back in
42:38
because they're like, no, we, we're secure here.
42:40
We don't do that. And I was like, but it's mine.
42:42
And they're like, because someone went in and they changed
42:44
my password and had all my stuff and I was like, no, you have to
42:47
let. And they're like, Nope.
42:49
So all of that's just. Oh my God, yeah.
42:53
So no cloud for me. OK, no cloud and you're gonna
42:55
take that laptop? Yeah.
42:57
During that fire. There won't be a fire though.
43:00
No, no blank. This is the last one.
43:03
Blank is what I'd really like to tell my blank.
43:07
Oh my God. It's A2 blank.
43:13
Question. I can't think of it.
43:19
OK, wait. Blank is what I really like to
43:21
tell my blank. I don't know why I'm I'm I'm
43:27
like blanket. That's OK.
43:28
I mean, I'm just thinking of like sweet things.
43:30
I'm like I love you, is what I really want to tell my son.
43:32
But I already say that all the time.
43:34
What's wrong with that? Because I already say that all
43:35
the time I'm trying to think of I, I kind of always say the
43:38
thing I don't have a lot of. I'm not good at holding back.
43:42
OK. Clearly I'm like, I want you to
43:44
be my boyfriend. I like I've just, I just say the
43:46
thing. So I don't even I'm like the
43:48
worst candidate for this. What do you say for it?
43:50
What's yours? Oh my God, Huzzah is what I'd
43:56
like to tell my Renaissance festival.
43:59
There you go. Person.
44:01
No, I I know I've got 1. I'm tired is what I really want
44:05
to tell people when I don't write them back.
44:07
Yes. Like it's not personal.
44:08
I'm just like, I'm like I'm tired.
44:10
I'm like a mom. I'm tired.
44:12
But then they might think, oh, you're just saying that yes,
44:15
yeah, yeah. But you really are tired, so
44:19
Ricky's not going to respond to you.
44:21
I don't everybody. I just literally forget.
44:24
I just like I. I forget, I just.
44:27
People understand. Most people, yeah, some people
44:30
get their feelings hurt or they're or they won't write a
44:33
second thing and they'll be like, no, I asked you like 6
44:35
months ago. I'm like, I, I didn't see it.
44:38
I don't. I didn't see it.
44:40
I know. Like sometimes you've you've got
44:43
a message that's six months old and you go shit.
44:47
It's like I used to be so on top of that, maybe because I used to
44:49
be very on top of stuff and ever since becoming a mom, I just
44:52
forget everything. You kind of got to let things go
44:55
and prioritise, yeah, Which is the baby you.
44:58
Only have like so much energy and then the rest I'm just
45:01
blank. Yeah, Oh my God.
45:03
I'm just tired. I mean.
45:04
I went to the wrong address today.
45:06
You did, yeah. That is so not like me.
45:09
If you you went to Big Ben, is that when I said don't go to Big
45:12
Ben? I went to the Tower of London.
45:14
I think that's where you recorded your podcast, but yet
45:18
