Pretty Little Episode #84

Checking All-State First could save you hundreds on car insurance.

That's smart.

Not checking what baseball team your friend's kid is on before cheering for a home run.

It can get a little awkward.

I just cheered for them losing their game.

Yeah, checking first is smart.

So check All-State First for a quote that could save you hundreds.

You're in good hands with All-State.

Potential savings vary subject to terms, conditions, and availability.

Handsome, type of friends on the handsome pot.

Chatting with friends on the handsome pot.

Pretty little episode.

Explain yourself.

Welcome.

How does this show start?

Welcome to you go ahead.

Oh, welcome to a pretty little episode of the Handsome pot.

Did you like that, Tig?

Who are you?

No, no, I'm saying you haven't announced the host.

Oh, I'm May.

I'm joined by Tignotaro.

Now, who is this other little friend?

Well, I'm not sure yet.

I'm still getting to know him.

But on tour, I did my God.

I've said on tour that I love like trinkets and stuff.

I've created this situation where I'm like golem.

People are bringing me this amazing thing.

Wait, so this is amazing.

I would say go to YouTube, but I guess I am annoying people by saying that.

Fine, you're going to miss out on this amazing item.

It's a possum.

So I'm holding a handmade possum creature that is so characterful.

It just looks kind of stressed out, and I love it.

It's very cute.

I have a problem now that at every show I'm getting these amazing gifts.

I don't know where to keep them all or what to do.

Do you need to keep them all?

A lot of them are kind of magical crystals and spells.

I don't want to be cursed if I throw them out.

So no, I'm keeping them.

I'm going to have to have a good case.

You could not be more different.

I like where do I put all my little stuffed possums people are giving me?

It's very nice, these gestures, and it's so up your alley, it's hilarious.

It's crazy how well chosen these things are.

This is a book of Canadian trivia that someone gave me.

She goes, she goes, hey peanut butter bitch, I go, hey girl, she goes.

And she goes, you're not going to believe this, but peanut butter was invented in Canada.

I was like, I'm in heaven.

How?

In like 18 and something, we invented peanut butter.

It took us that long as humans to grind peanuts.

Yeah, that seems weird, because we were grinding corn, we were grinding wheat.

Why didn't someone say put a nut in there, you know?

Wow.

Yesterday this woman said, let's take a photo as if I'm at Tiggs Meat and Greet.

One is if I'm at Fortune's Meat and Greet.

And one is if I'm at your Fort Meat and Greet.

So the TIG photo was a standing side by side, just sort of not touching but smiling politely.

The fortune one was being like, hey, pointing at each other.

And then the me one, she just like wraps onto me like a koala.

Okay, I guess this is my reputation.

So is that, do you feel like that's, because I feel like that is true with me.

I would stand politely next to somebody.

But you feel like a full embrace makes most sense for you.

That's the precedent I've set.

You're going with it?

I'm going with it.

Yeah, I'm a little, I like a hug.

Okay, well, here's how you and I are also different.

The suitcase on the bed.

Oh my God.

I know.

I know.

And the fact that it didn't even stick out to you to think like, I'm recording.

I'm going to take my suitcase off of my bed.

But here's where we're alike.

Well, cowboy.

Please.

Green suitcase and a green suitcase.

Yes.

A hundred percent.

Always green suitcase.

Yeah.

Dark forest green.

Yes.

Well, I'm moving out of the bus today for tonight.

I'm in a hotel.

Then I'm back in LA for a week.

But I'm leaving some stuff in the bus.

Okay.

Like all these trinkets.

I'm just a little possums and stuff.

Yeah, I'm postponing that.

I mean, I have so many possums.

I have, I have little cowboys.

Oh my gosh.

Raccoons.

Of course you do.

Yeah.

I mean, what an incredible following you've created.

I'm really developed.

I'm feeling that.

I'm feeling so grateful.

Yeah.

So someone, you need to give me the context on this.

Someone went, don't tell TIG.

And then show me.

Well, because I talked on the show about my, I, I just, that buckies.

It's a gas station.

Okay.

It has really clean bathrooms and a lot of shopping you can do.

And people are so into this place.

I think it's wonderful.

But they buy the merchandise.

They get the t-shirts, the stuffed animals.

And I'm just like, okay.

Okay.

Like go.

Empty your bladder, buy a bag of chips, fill up your car and head out.

Yeah, you don't have to worship the brand of brand.

Right.

I just, I don't like brand worship.

And I use the example.

I think it was on this show.

Yeah.

I use the example of like when people were really into like certain doughnut shops and like certain

yogurt, frozen yogurt.

I can't even remember the name of the places.

Yeah.

But it became the, the cool place to get these types of food and people are wearing the merch.

Yeah.

And I'm just like, yeah.

I don't know.

I'm just, yeah.

I love the weird network we've created for that people are giving, giving me gifts specifically

to annoy you.

They're saying, oh, you know, I don't think she's this.

It's really funny, though.

And, and just to be clear, I fully appreciate buckies.

Buckies.

I don't get the obsession over a gas station.

Yeah.

And the merch specifically.

Yeah.

Phew.

Wait a row, me up.

I know.

I feel wrong.

How are you this morning?

I'm doing well.

I'm, I'm just thrilled to be home still.

Yeah.

I just, it's, it's, I've, I've, I've just been back and forth between Toronto and on tour

and doing press in New York and LA and I just, it is truly those little moments of loving

to be home when it's time to go dropbacks and fin off or go to their practice on the weekend

or we sit around.

We sit around.

I told you we do a game as a family.

This is about the only game I'll do.

But we sit around in the living room and we each say a word.

Yeah, I've told you that.

No.

Remind me?

Well, somebody you'll start off and they'll, and they'll say like Wednesday and then the next

person will be like, is, and then the next person says, be, day, that.

And then you just create a story and you add a word and then, and then at the other part

of it is like Max and Finn love trying to remember what the whole sentence was.

Yeah.

And so you try and repeat it back.

We got to do that on the pod.

That's my kind of game.

I know.

But it says those little moments of just, and also being home with Kitty City and, um,

Stephanie and, uh, anyway, and just having your routine, eating the things you want to eat,

sleeping in your bed.

Yeah.

Taking a walk.

I'm still going to a trainer a couple of days a week.

Oh, you are?

Yeah, I have been since the, the summer.

Um, certainly not creating a body like May Martin, but, um, but yeah, are you doing weights

though?

Um, I, you know, I'm doing, I'm doing 55 year old weight training, you know, where I'm,

yeah, I'm, you know, I'm not pumping iron, you know, it's like toning strengthening.

It's good for your bones.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I'm, uh, weight training.

I'm still doing my daily walk and, um, but it just, yeah, it feels nice to be in a routine

and Stephanie and I in the mornings sit and chat and we take a walk together and it's,

it's just nice to start my day that way.

That's nice.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I feel good.

I get back for 10 days and then I'm pretty much gone for six weeks or more.

It's going to be, I got to find ways to stay sane.

Uh-huh.

Yeah.

A little, I think the exercise really is, is what does it?

Like just, I'm going to get a yoga mat and a couple weights and just like, try and do something

before every show or something.

Do you do those bands?

Yeah.

I love those bands.

Yeah.

Those seem like a really nice travel.

Yeah.

Workout option.

Yeah.

Shall we get to a question?

Oh, right.

That's why we're doing this.

It's not to just show off your green suitcase and your possums.

Checking all state first could save you hundreds on car insurance.

That's smart.

Not checking that you bought pizza dough for pizza night.

Oh, no.

Now we're stuck waiting 90 minutes for the delivery order to arrive.

Yeah.

Checking first is smart.

So check all state first for a quote that could save you hundreds.

During good hands of all state, potential savings vary, subject to terms, conditions and

availability.

All state, North American insurance company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois.

Yeah.

Let's get to a question.

Hey, handsome.

This is Ray from Toronto, and I want to know what the silliest, unnecessary lie you've

ever told is.

I have one that's really embarrassing.

A lie that was unnecessary.

I saw I didn't have to do your internet.

I saw it from the Wi-Fi, but you know what?

It was in that same era.

It was right around then.

I had a show booked at Largo.

I was just going to do a set at Largo, and I was still new-ish to LA and so excited that

I was even getting sets at Largo.

But often when I'm falling in love and becoming obsessed, I end up canceling things.

And I don't know what happened, but I texted Flannie at Largo, and I know I've got to come

clean about this to him.

I go, I had a massage, and the person was walking on me, and I heard, I hurt my back.

I've had like a spot.

That was a full made up lie.

I don't know why I said that.

Hold on.

Were you getting a massage?

No.

Okay.

So that's just a really weird elaborate lie.

I know, and he texted, he goes, do I need to call an ambulance?

And I'm like, no, no, no, I'm far away.

I said, no, no, I'm naked in bed.

I'm completely fine.

I'm in love.

I'm just in love.

Yeah.

I don't know why.

It needed to be something.

Oh, God.

Yeah.

I've really broken that habit.

I mean, I really-

How did you break the habit?

I don't, I just, you know, the podcast helped.

I think fortune noticing that sometimes I was like sending these long explanations for

why I was late and things like that.

I was like, yeah, I just-

That's my mother would call them Fugaboo's.

Fugaboo's, yeah.

Yeah.

You were a Fugaboo in.

I was Fugaboo in.

It all comes from like people pleasing, and just not wanting to be in trouble, and having

bad time management, but I think I've turned a corner.

But that was crazy, blaming some fictional masseuse for breaking my back in some way, and

then having to see Flanny like the next week for another show, and he's like, oh, you

have to limp or anything.

I was like, oh, yeah, I turned out to be fine.

Oh, my God.

Oh.

Oh.

So embarrassing.

What about you?

An unnecessary lie.

Well, I really try to stick as close to the truth, but I feel like I print people a lot.

Yeah.

I was out with- around the time that Wayward came out, I was out with Tony Colette, and she said,

wouldn't it be funny if I texted this other actor in Wayward, who they only had a couple

of scenes together?

They weren't even like, and she said, I'm going to text him and say that I want to sing

a song with him at the premiere on stage, and it was like the next day.

And it was just such a funny prank, because it wasn't like they had an established relationship

of pranking.

It was, so she texted him, hey, Josh, Maywan says to sing this song, I've got a guitar.

I don't have any time to rehearse, but I know that hopefully you know the chords.

He was freaking out.

He was so stressed, and she didn't even tell him it was a prank until like four hours

later.

She was like, just kidding.

Oh my lord.

Maybe love.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I was with years ago.

I used to live in Venice out by the beach here in California, and my old pal, Henry Phillips,

who is such a ridiculous man.

He's a musical comedian, and he does stand up as well, but like, he makes videos online

just a silly, silly guy.

And we used to do things called party bits, and he was at a party in Venice, and he called

me, and he said, hey, I'm at a party near your house.

He said, I don't know anybody here.

He's like, you got to come, you got to come and do some party bits with me, and we would

just like prank people at parties, and so I was like, oh, okay, I'll be right over.

So I go over there, and we're just doing stupid subtle things that where people are looking

at us, you know, like we're odd, which we were.

And then I was by myself when Henry had wandered off, and there were like maybe five people

chatting in the kitchen.

Yeah.

Again, I knew no one but Henry Phillips, and I leaned on the door frame, and I just

I said, hey guy, and this is a Saturday night, and it was like 9.30 at night.

And I lean on the door frame, and I go, hey guys, I'm going to be going to bed in like

10 minutes, and then I just tap the wall and walk away.

And you know, they were all just like, who, like, who was this?

And then so I go up to Henry, and I said, oh my gosh, I just told these

five random strangers in the kitchen that I'm going to be going to bed in like 10 minutes.

And he was like, oh my god, that's so funny.

He said, there's like 200 people in the backyard.

He said, you have to go yell that to the, on the back patio, and so I was like, okay.

So I walk out to the back deck, and I was like, and people are all, I mean, it's Saturday

at 9.30.

Like of course, people are having drinks and chatting, and I was like, hey, everybody

and then they're like, and I don't even know like if the owner was in the kitchen,

I'm sure, yeah, or like in the back, I don't, I didn't know where I was, but I just

say, hey, everybody, just so you know, I'm going to be going to bed in like 10 minutes.

Henry and I go back in, we're dying laughing, and, but here's what I stand by.

That doesn't mean I own the house, that just means I'm going to bed in like 10 minutes,

you know?

Yeah.

So when it tries to, yeah, that's so funny.

Yeah.

Love that kind of stuff, so much.

When was that?

Was that a reason?

No, it was a lot, it was when I lived in Venice, it was probably like 20 years ago.

I really think that, I really think that we should start party bits at like awards shows,

like big high stakes environments, that's, I'd be all for it.

I remind people that they have free will and they can do any silly thing at any time.

Absolutely.

Should we hear Ray's answer?

Yeah.

Oh yeah, let's hear it, right?

I once convinced my partner that the term gas lighting was originally gas lamping because

it was derived from those old gas street lamps, which were notoriously unreliable.

And once I had him thoroughly convinced, I then told him I'd made it all up.

And he just stared at me and said, you planned this?

Why?

And you know, I'm not sure why.

I think it just keeps me young.

Anyway, I'm a big fan.

I can't wait to hear your answers.

That's so funny.

Oh, she got listed.

Got, got list.

She got listed.

She got listed.

She got listed.

She got slim.

Yes.

Do we have time for one more?

We could do a quick one, right?

Yeah.

Hi, handsome.

This is Katie from Chicago.

And I have an advice question for you.

I was wondering if you have any advice about how to deal with FOMO or fear of messing out.

And as a bonus question, what is the worst case of FOMO that you've ever had?

Great question.

Is it?

I don't feel like I have FOMO.

Really?

I guess I do when I'm away from home.

Like, I think I've just been traveling so much that I'm like, ugh, I want to be there.

I want to hear all the funny things everybody's saying and, um, yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

You're, you're kind of living in a state of FOMO when you're away.

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess I was thinking of the outside world.

I don't really experience that with the outside world.

I, I, I, that I can think of one time in my twenties and I was in, um, like a Soho

house in London and Harry Styles came in.

And so we were all freaking out in my group and we were kind of following him around, you

know, at a, at a safe distance and just observing him and, um, poor guy, poor guy, but we were

like, should we talk to him?

Yeah, sure.

That's the only time.

I was like, his entire life is being observed as a wild animal from a distance.

Yeah.

And he was so tall and handsome and we were like, who's going to have the courage to

talk to him and, uh, and then it was getting later and later and I was like, I got

to go.

I, and he kind of maybe peripherally knew someone in our group, but he was very closed

off.

So then I went home and 20 minutes later, my friend texted me a photo of her linking arms

with Harry Styles and drinking from champagne glasses like she just went for it.

As soon as I left, she was like, ah, fuck it went up and was like, hi, I'm lolly nice

to meet you.

And then they ended up drinking champagne together and I was like, wow.

You just missed it.

Yeah.

I just stuck it out.

Yeah.

Katie.

Let's hear your answer.

Yeah.

Let's hear it.

Katie.

I don't have an answer to the first question.

Um, my answer for the second question is that May is coming to my city on their

tour.

Um, but I'm currently super pregnant and they're going to be here on my due date.

So I can't come see you live because I might be giving birth.

So that is the biggest case of photo that I've ever had.

And I really wish I could come see you live.

Thank you so much for the show.

I'm a huge fan.

We love listening and looking forward to hearing your answer.

That's so nice.

That's so nice.

Why don't you drive your bus over and help deliver the baby?

That's so funny that my first thought was she should come and have the baby at the

show.

No.

But no, I should go.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You should pull up screeching.

Yeah.

Which room is Katie in?

Oh.

I, yeah, I've had friends, um, from Texas and wherever tell me that they bought tickets to

your tour and going to your city.

Yeah.

Oh, that's so nice.

Yeah.

That's so nice.

Yeah.

So I was finishing my third show in Florida and I did go to Disney yesterday and that was

a mistake.

So I'm on like four hours of sleep a night and I thought I got to just sneak to Orlando

to Disney and I forgot how it makes your body feel like your bones are dust like jumbled

up.

Yeah.

But it was pretty great.

Yeah.

I really like Orlando.

Yeah.

I have to say there's so many cute people think of it as only Disney, but there's so

many cute little areas to walk around and eat and show up and whatever.

This is a commercial for Orlando, Florida.

Yeah.

Anyway, well, that was fun.

Good to see you, little cowboy.

I'm lovely to see.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, yeah.

You burped.

Oh, yeah.

Okay.

Burbs.

And I said, hey, that was a lie.

I said, it comes because I was embarrassed that I burped.

Everyone knew.

Yeah.

Everyone knew.

Yeah.

Here's a commercial for us on May 4th.

We're doing our Netflix as a joke show where we are interviewing the cast of the hunting

wives.

So please come out in person and also submit your questions and advice request to speakpipe.com

slash Hansen pod.

And what have you got coming up, Tig?

Well, I just, I have my tour dates at tignotaro.com, you know, and as I've mentioned a few times,

I've had to be rescheduled for this award season as they call it just back to back press

and dinners and all kinds of stuff that I'm not normally doing.
