Chapter 3: What challenges did Ginger face during her trip to Europe?

828.155 - 858.473 Unknown

And I didn't know how to, like, try and... you know, give her a beat. So I just told him, I said, I was like, listen, Amy, here's something you need to know about Amy. She's very, very fragile. And she's the oldest person I've ever met in my life. Oh my God. And so, I mean, she was awesome with him and she actually, she's an artist and she drew disgusting bunny. Oh my God. This is heaven.

858.513 - 875.973 Unknown

I know what disgusting bunny looks like. Well, I'll send you, or we can post it, but I sent a picture of Amy's drawing to Stephanie to show Max and Finn. And I said, ask them what this is. And she said, yeah, Max said it's disgusting bunny, and Finn said he has no idea what he's looking at.

876.754 - 885.264 Mae Martin

Hilarious. Oh, my God. Yeah. Anyway. This character is such a good creation, but does he live where the Easter bunny lives? Like, same crew?

0

885.785 - 900.462 Unknown

I haven't thought anything through until my nephew was asking a million questions. Oh, and then the next day, they live in an old farmhouse, and, like, the wood was settling, and it made some creaks, some creaky noises.

0

900.722 - 900.822

Yeah.

900.802 - 904.552 Unknown

And he turns to me and he goes, is that disgusting?

908.222 - 911.21 Fortune Feimster

The bunny's magical, even though he's disgusting.

911.23 - 928.022 Unknown

And I was like, I don't, I don't know if that's disgusting bunny. And he said, will you go look? And I said, I was like, I don't, I don't want to look. I truly can't believe, I'm sure he's still talking about it since I left. I did not expect this response.

928.302 - 935.693 Fortune Feimster

You need to be making up more information about this bunny and why he comes and what you get out of it. If there's a lesson in there.

Chapter 4: What is the story behind the 'Disgusting Bunny' children's book?

1697.504 - 1701.828 Tig Notaro

May, it is a rule across every land.

1702.709 - 1706.814 Unknown

First of all, I didn't even know you pooped, May. The poo's not the problem.

0

1706.834 - 1715.963 Mae Martin

Everyone poops. I flushed a tampon down, and I thought it was a composting toilet. This is so embarrassing, but I'm telling it, I guess.

0

1717.405 - 1721.689 Unknown

You're trying to get ahead of the bus driver talking about your poop.

0

1721.669 - 1722.93 Mae Martin

And so what happened was.

1722.95 - 1725.092 Tig Notaro

I want to tell this before he does.

1725.112 - 1732.319 Mae Martin

Okay. So I thought, cause it wouldn't flush. And I thought that it wouldn't flush cause the bus had run out of water. So in my mind, I thought.

1732.379 - 1735.321 Unknown

But just to clarify, your poop was never a problem.

1735.802 - 1736.542 Mae Martin

Not that I know of.

Chapter 5: How do the hosts react to their own vacation disasters?

2966.167 - 2991.297 Unknown

The bed was heart-shaped. Of course. Oh, my God. So me and my friend are sleeping on a heart-shaped bed. And speaking of toilets, I know you love a toilet, May. Yeah. This was like the romantic suite. So we were laughing so hard because the toilet was near the bed, but like it had this little –

2991.783 - 2994.507 Mae Martin

Like half a wall, kind of like a little nook?

0

2994.547 - 3020.042 Unknown

No, it was a full wall, but it had like this little window where you could open the window from the toilet and look at the bed. And it's like, what sort of weird relationship? Like, why would you be on the toilet? Like you, I guess if you just got married and you miss your person. And you can't not talk. You can't be away from them. You're on the toilet, whether you're doing a duker or a tampon.

You open the little blinds and you're like, hi. And then we also got lured into the, like, you know, go on a tour and meet with, this was so long ago when we did not have enough money to be on a vacation. And so when the people are like, oh, do you want to go look at timeshare condos? And at the end of the tour, you get a free meal. So we went and looked at timeshare condos to get

3049.175 - 3076.855 Unknown

A free meal that was so disgusting. I've done that. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my God. It was such a... But it's also that thing where I'm sure with your friend, you probably had a great time. I had the best time. Yeah, we had so much fun. And we also... We were taking pictures to create our own pamphlet of like the off season in the Bahamas. And we were just like dripping in sweat. We were so sunburned.

3077.396 - 3085.273 Unknown

Everything was closed and we're lying on the heart shaped bed and peeking at each other from the toilet.

3085.253 - 3092.701 Mae Martin

It's if you can switch your mind to delighting in the misfortune and stuff, then it's really joyful.

3092.801 - 3102.192 Unknown

Everything in life is about that. It's just like you just have to move a few things around and see it differently and then just have a blast. Yes.
