Pretty Little Episode.
Welcome to the Handsome Pod's Pretty Little Episode. I am Fortune Feimster.
And I am Tig Notaro. How are you, Fortune?
I'm so good. How are you, my friend? I'm doing well.
I'm just touring around and just doing the best I can, really. That's all I can do.
You're doing great. Some days. Are you enjoying being back on tour?
I am. I'm liking these... I really don't. I don't know if it's my age or what, but like, I'm just like, I'm really happy with once a month, four or five nights in a row. And it's just, it just is nice. I would go out, I'd go hard and fast. Whereas I'm like, I'm going to let this ride as long as it wants to. But things are good. Stephanie and I, we have stuff we're working on that's been really fun. And it's one of those things where like, you go into these projects and they're kind of like stalled out sometimes for a while. And then, and who knows what will ultimately happen, but we just had like a really fun run of a week of like, wow, this is, that's a really good email. Whoa. I didn't. Oh, this came back around.
And so I'm also though, trying to, Like I love working on that, but I'm also, I think I'm realizing I don't know that I want to be fully producing anymore.
Really?
On projects. Yeah.
Why? It's just too much work?
It's just a lot.
What social movements do Tig and Fortune dream up?
It's a lot with when things get really layered and complicated and stuff. I don't have the I find it fascinating that people will get into the business to be a producer. because you're taking on so much. Whereas I started out as a comedian and then got into different projects and development and, you know, Oh, that'd be fun. Yeah, let's do that. And then, and then you're like, Oh my God, I'm full on in a producing role and just kind of pulling back the layers of getting in touch with what do I really want to
Right.
What do I want for my my time? My what are my actual interests? I don't want to get my my dream confused with anybody else's dream. I want to do what really what I really want to do. So, yeah, it's it's a weird but good time.
Oh, that's good. Yeah. I would think that that would be a lot of like coordinating and I don't know, a lot of being required to be organized. Well, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. You don't want, I don't know that I want to, I would want to do it full time either.
And I didn't mean to do it full time, but I just started to realize like, gosh, so much of my time is like, being allocated to these kinds of tasks and calls and conversations and meetings. And I'm just like, is this really what I want to do? You know? I mean, and that's a different kind of producer than just like, oh, this project is teed up. Everything's looking good. Your name might be helpful to have on this project. And it's like, in that case, I'm like, yes.
Yeah.
Slap my name on there and let's go. But I'm always really interested in that world of learning about myself.
How does Fortune feel about touring and performing?
Yeah.
You know, I'm very interested in that because sometimes I can become numb and just be moving forward without thought. And I can't wait to tell May this, but This is exciting. I'm doing my own wellness weekend. By yourself? I'm going to hire people. Well, because I was thinking I really want to do a wellness retreat, but not that I am the most recognizable person in the world. But I do think I wouldn't feel totally relaxed if I was at a retreat, you know, because people...
right. Okay.
Recognize me.
And sure.
And so I started to look into other options and then I saw like, maybe you can hire somebody to come in and do a retreat for you at your house.
