What unique experiences does Rosebud Baker share about her childhood?
Hey, Podcast Universe. I wanted to drop in so you didn't think you got stuck in some holiday hot tub time machine when listening to this episode. I figured I'd wait till the January blues were in full effect before dropping our conversation with the darkly hilarious Rosebud Baker on you. If you hear us mentioning the upcoming holidays or the new year, that's the reason why. This was recorded a couple of weeks ago. So now you know, and knowing's half the battle. Now go on, get. Listen to this episode. Number 461 for those keeping score of the commercial break.
Here's the thing. My sister drowned in a jacuzzi, which is a very festive place to drown. It throws off the story, you know? It's like getting shot in the head with a t-shirt cannon. Like, a jacuzzi's where I lost my virginity to make it special. And she took that from me. So who's the real victim? It was like the first Christmas after my sister died. My family put a life-sized cardboard cutout of my sister. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. She was watching us. I was like, now she's dead, and she's got to watch us open presents. Yeah. Wow.
I was like, this is so fucked up.
How did Rosebud Baker transition from writing to stand-up comedy?
To me, it was like so funny.
The next episode of The Commercial Break starts now. Welcome back to the commercial break. I'm Brian Green. This is the Senior Vice President of Ho Ho Ho's Kristen Joy Oatley. Best to you, Kristen.
Best to you, Brian.
Best to you out there in the podcast universe. Kristen's back in action. We're super excited. Thanks to Tina and Christina and Astrid and Marianne and everybody that's been helping out while Kristen takes some personal time. It's good to have you, my friend.
Thank you. Good to be back.
It's good to be seen.
It's good to be seen. All that good stuff.
Yeah.
There's two things I have to talk to you about that are omnipresent on my mind right now. Number one.
I like the word omnipresent.
Yeah, omnipresent. I'm not even sure I'm using that word correctly, but it sounds sexy, so I'm going to use it. Look that up in your funk and wagnalls.
All-consuming, right?
Yes, it means all. I think what it really means is all-knowing, all-seeing. They use it for like God, like he's omnipresent. Oh, right. But I'm a God in my own... mirror. So I'm going to say that, you know, it's omnipresent on my mind. Number one, I hate when I go into the pantry and I cannot find the snack that I'm looking for. Do you know what I'm saying? Like when you're hungry, you just want to nibble on something, but then you go rooting around and you realize that you don't have the thing that you want, but you don't know what the thing is.
What insights does Rosebud provide about working on SNL?
Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah.
I just want something salty, but I don't want any of the salty stuff that's available. I want something else. And I can't fucking figure it out. And I'm too lazy to go to the store. And I'm pissed because all I want is that salty snack. But I can't tell you what salty snack I want.
That's why I keep a bag of the peanuts, the shelled peanuts around.
Like just regular salted peanuts?
Yeah, like the ones you would get at the ballpark.
Oh, like the boiled peanuts?
Well, I love boiled peanuts, but... Oh, you get the fully shell. No, the dried, like the ones that you crack open.
Oh, you get the crack ones open?
How does Rosebud Baker use humor to cope with personal traumas?
You get the ones you got to do work for.
Yeah.
Oh, no, fuck all that. I get the salted planters.
No, because that, to me, gives me a little bit of the saltiness that I want, and I've got to do some work, so I don't eat very many of them.
Do you ever eat the shell?
I've eaten the shell.
I've eaten the shell a lot.
I am embarrassed to say it, but I'm sure we've all done it. It's fiber.
I know. There's something about that shell that just gets to me.
I don't eat it on everyone, obviously.
But if I'm at the ballpark, I'm not afraid of like chewing on a shell for a few minutes. You know what I'm saying? I feel like those guys out of there spitting and chewing and chawing or whatever. Right. I don't think it's as popular as it used to be, but there's still a lot of guys that dip in baseball. I can see it. I can see it in their big mouths.
