Hey, it's your friend Tig Notaro on the handsome Pretty Little Episode. I'm sitting here with my co-host, Fortune Veemster. That's me. Hi, Fortune. It's me, Tig. Hi, Tig. I have some news for you. Wait, what? Well... Stephanie and I were invited to a party. Yeah. And we typically don't go to parties much. Yeah. And I was taking my little nightly bubble bath. Oh, wait, a nightly one? Yeah.

81.702 - 97.921 Tig Notaro

Do you do one every night? I do. I do. Oh, I love this for you. I love you. And so I was just looking and feeling so adorable and clean and like, ah, the end of the day, clean myself up, get into the clean sheets.

98.602 - 98.702

Yeah.

98.682 - 112.506 Tig Notaro

And Stephanie came in and sat on the little stool by the bath and said, I feel like we should go to the party tonight. Oh, that same night? Yeah, we had already decided we were not.

And Stephanie also spent some time talking to her and we both left the party going, she's awesome. Oh, I love that. I love those moments where you get to meet somebody a second time in life. And is she settled down? Is she with someone?

338.573 - 339.375 Fortune Feimster

Single? Yes.

339.675 - 368.493 Tig Notaro

She is with somebody who is so adorable. He's so sweet. Like, his face is just the cutest little sweetest face. And his vibe is so good. And they're... They're locked in. And I was just so happy for her. And she was just talking about how she's just really feeling like she's hit her stride in life and feeling successful with work and love and life.

368.693 - 398.994 Tig Notaro

And I was just like, man, I'm genuinely psyched for you. And I don't know. I just felt like almost giddy about our relationship. I hadn't seen her in years. Yeah, that sounds like a good thing you got out of that tub. Yeah, I would say it was great to see all the other old pals, but that was a surprise curveball when she came walking around the corner, you know. I bet.

399.034 - 400.876 Fortune Feimster

It was a real blast from the past.

Chapter 3: What childhood memories do Tig and Fortune cherish the most?

629.599 - 661.433 Mae Martin

Hello, my handsomes. This is JJ from San Francisco. I am a huge fan of the pod. I was wondering, what is one big red and green flag? that you find in a partner? Let's say you're all single. This is a world where you're single and looking for a partner. What would be the biggest red flag that gives you the ick and the biggest green flag that gives you those little heart flutters?

0

662.105 - 666.034 Tig Notaro

That's a good question.

0

666.054 - 668.259 Fortune Feimster

No one's ever asked us that.

Checking Allstate first could save you hundreds on car insurance. Not checking your luggage capacity before accepting gifts from fans? I miscalculated. I appreciate all the thoughtful presence, but now I need to find a way to ship this stuff back home, and it's very heavy. Yeah, checking first is handsome. So check Allstate first for an auto quote. It could save you hundreds.

You go, girl. Girl, let's start with green flag. Mm hmm. I always have a soft spot in my heart for someone who loves old people. Yeah. And is really kind to old people.

729.516 - 756.775 Fortune Feimster

Like if I if you see someone who like when they see an old person, like an elderly person, they like get up from their seat and offer their seat to them or they help them with the bag or. Just take a little extra care with anyone elderly. That is a big green flag for me because it just means they have empathy and there's sort of an old-fashionedness with that.

756.976 - 767.152 Fortune Feimster

And that's how I was heavily influenced by my grandmother. So anybody who has that in them usually is my cup of tea.

768.635 - 768.775

Mm-hmm.

1068.758 - 1101.923 Tig Notaro

Just something where, you know, it's just that vibe. I was also thinking a major green flag for me is when you like their friend group. You know, because I've definitely been with some people where I've had to slog through dinners and social situations with their friend group. And I'm like, who have we met? This is tough.

1101.943 - 1116.983 Fortune Feimster

This is tough. Yeah, it's nice when it's just easy all in that social setting. For sure. With their friends and also like JJ said, when they're like in your environment too and you don't have to worry about them, they're at ease.

1117.043 - 1124.213 Tig Notaro

Yeah, that is the best. What else you got for us, handsome listeners?

1124.328 - 1151.517 Unknown

Hey, handsome. My name is Cami, and your podcast got me through the third trimester of my pregnancy. My little one is now 10 weeks old, and as I'm stumbling through the early days of parenthood, the question I have been pondering and would like to ask y'all is, what aspect of being a kid do you never want to forget? And specifically for Tig, how does that show up in your parenting?

1152.273 - 1196.978 Tig Notaro

What part of my childhood do I never want to forget? I never, ever want to forget the freedom that I felt in exploring nature. I mean, following creeks and just so free. And I mean, I know it's the full-on Huckleberry Tig in me, but like climbing trees, following creeks so far back into the woods, catching frogs, all of the very typical things that my childhood allowed me. I mean, I...
