Transcript

Molly may will you come out to play your smile takes the day? And this is Molly Mayo. Another nice stuff with me? Molly you take me? Yeah? Sorry? Uh no, I'm not sorry. My name is Molly, It's Molly may I have my buddy a Mollia with me. It's clear that we are already warmed up. We recorded our first full episode and now we're gonna do our favorite little Uh I almostn't flavor saver um. What the fuck we're gonna do? Rapid fire? Five questions back and forth Mollia

Nicholson and myself. Are you ready? Ready? Yeah? I'm so ready. I have six questions just in case you ask one that I already have written down. Oh yeah, okay, Mala, I always get so giggly. We want to do this. Do you believe in aliens? Yeah? Absolutely? There are so many planets, there's many galaxies. There's no way we're the only ones. Come on, don't be crazy. I agree with you. Do you think they're walking amongst us and we just can't see them?

What are the ghosts? Are aliens? Uh? That would be crazy. I would feel really sad, like I don't know, I feel like that'd be sad, Like are they are they away from their families? That would be sad If there are aliens on earth? Are they just like on a rum springer where they're like supposed to spend a year away? Do you know what a rum spring is? It's like when you it's basically like a foreign exchange student, right, like you trade places. Well, let's give

your amas. Oh no, that's fun. Now, I don't know what a rump springer is. Rump spring is when an Amish person spends a year away from their community to like decide if they want to be a part of it or if they want to join the like the modernist world or whatever. The seculars. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know the right term. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm I'm sure that's not what they call us, the seculars. It's like it's like what you call music that's not

church music. I wouldn't know. I am Jewish, but um I love you rum spring hit me? Yeah yours? Okay? Would you rather have hot dogs for fingers or hamburgers for toes? Hamburgers for toes? Because here's my thing is my nickname growing up from my brother was alien toes I have. This conversation is really just coming full circle, real nice, and it's just, you know, there's some pudginess to them, and I feel like, why not just make them a hamburger? They're halfway there, but you

would. I mean, they're real hamburgers, so like hughes are gonna be really hard to fit with hamburgers for toes. I mean, I remember talking like full big mac, not just like I just imagined it, like turning to like a ground breakfast sausage. But they're still the size they are. No, I don't well, I didn't lay out the parameter, so I

think we can be possible. But I just I think maybe more like let's talk sliders here, you know, like you're gonna have to get Yeah, but yeah, I just I like doing things with my hands, and I like manicures. And also if they were hot dogs, I know that I could not stop myself from eating my own fingers. Yeah, that's fair, that's fair. Yeah, Mike Toes, it's hard for me to get down there, so they'd be safe. Yeah, I like that answer, Thank you so much. Um Here is one that is a tradition to ask um

and it's controversial. Do you fold or crinkle your toilet paper? Um? First of all, I use a bidet, so wow ha ha wow you did Yeah when the toilet yeah wrong answer. Um, When the pandemic first started and all the toilet paper was stressful, I was like, oh, no, what are we going to do? And then I was like, wait, yeah, I'm fine, Um, but you know you still use a little bit of toilet paper. I fold it, okay, hold it? Yeah, okay, interesting answer. Are you a crumpler? I am

a crumpler. You a crumple energy? Yeah? Yeah yeah. I looked into getting a bidet, same kind of thought process you had, and didn't trust myself to not fuck up the plumbing because we're renting, you know, and like I was looking at a real bougie one that was like you can put warm water in it, but you got to connect it to like all the right hoses, and I just, I don't know, I got scared. I bought it when we first moved to La. I was like, I'm an La woman. I need a bid day yes, and uh yeah,

you know it's cold water, but it's refreshing. So wow, he's a link fuck yeah dude. Uh I kind of have a follow up then, do you find I've always wondered this with the bidet? Do you find yourself having to maneuver your body differently so it will shoot up the right spots? Like do you have to oh, spread your beout cheeks? Yeah, I mean you just position yourself for optimal usage. Absolutely. Uh, you know you well, and it's just something you get used to as you use

it. You need to sit in the way that you know it's gonna work with. I guess I need something now. Yeah, everyone needs the biddet. That's just a that that is my if anything is taken away from any conversation we have, is that you need to be get You're so inspiring. Thank you so much. Yeah, no problem, I U hit me. Okay, what is one thing you love that everyone else hates? Reba McIntyre.

I mean, not everyone hates Reba, but like that's fine. Um, yeah, that's that's interesting because the first things that came to my head were Reba and Bush Light and it's I'm just thinking of like our friend group and I'm like, yeah, that's fair. Um, but I mean mine is the movie White Chicks, and I think, like definitively no one likes that movie, so I guess I assume everyone has a White Chicks but maybe not. Oh my god, I fucking love you so much. Um god,

what now? I'm just thinking about like things that I really love that repulse Johnny So like, uh, the Fredo's cheese dip, like that you're that you get from a bodega and you just you don't heat it up, you just eat it straight out of the fucking can, Like I love that shiite Like, yeah, I mean that's the great, But I was absolutely Um, who is your favorite on King of the Hill? Um, you know, the popular answer would be Bobby right, Like, he's very trendy.

We everyone's like he's so wacky. But the true uh star of King of the Hill for me is Peggy Hill. The confidence that that woman has in herself is unbelievable. Every Peggy centric episode is just like unbelievably funny, and I just I really relate to a woman who is so underqualified but believes in herself so much that nothing can tell her she's wrong. I love that. I love that Boggle Boggle Champion, Substitute Teacher of the Year man.

There are so many good episodes about Peggy and the Feet And it's just I I rewatched King of the Hill pretty much all the time, and I've been the biggest fan of seasons one and two for the longest time. But right now I'm watching season seven and season seven has some bangers. So if you need an entry point into King of the Hill, highly recommend. Yeah. Um, I love that this is sinking up because I will cycle through my

favorite sitcoms basically as my nighttime stories. And it's because I know them so well that I don't set'll be like The Office and King of the Hill and I can tune the fuck out and like see it in my head because I know it so well. And the episode that was on last night was when um, she breaks up with her husband to go to prom. What's the daughter's name? The breaks up teenager yep, Lucky played by Tom Petty. I personally believe that Lucky is one of the worst parts of King of the

Hill, but it's very funny. That is a really good episode. Um Yeah. If you're not into King of the Hill, you should get on it. I wrote about King of the Hill in my master's thesis, where right only only at mcad can you study King of the Hill. What did you say? I was, um, I was talking about behavior, behavior

change through empathy and the role that humor plays in it. Um. But specifically with King of the Hill, the marketing of when the season was starting, they were also doing like grill giveaways, so like it basically was a case study in marketing of products teaming up with entertainment, kind of hitching those rides. Weird. I fucking lot that you get into the vault. I love that. I love that, big brainy earth. Wow. Um, are you ready for another question? Yes? What is the best flavor like

period ever? Yeah? This flavor white cha qualifiers, white cheddar? Yeah, I feel like yeah, yeah, that's where I was going. Or if I had a box of cheesets and white cheddar cheese, its fucking white cheddar all the time. Oh and Auntie Annie's uh white cheddar mac and cheese box, where you fucking go? There you go, that's a great answer. Yeah, white cheddar like fucking melted on mashed potatoes. O mhm mm hmmm, yep, if you I love that question, just like flavor period,

what's the best. Yeah, if you had to create an alter ego for yourself, maybe you already have one. I don't know, Uh, what would you name them? M I'm really bad at name um who uh? I feel like I don't like oh you know, well, okay, let me put it this way. I really like really androgynus names like and I really love like gender nonconforming people who have super like like super like neutral

names. I think it's the coolest shit ever, like the whole it's pat thing, which I think is really grows on SNL but like when you can't tell what's going on, like I love that gray space. I think it's so cool, like names like Chip or Spot or like even Spike is really cool. I think like all names Spike, and I love Buffy the Vampire Slayer and I'm very much team Spike, so like, maybe my name would be Spike, and I love you as a Spike. Yeah, I think

that's cool for me. I think i'd be a little I think I wouldn't wear as much pink. Maybe I just channel a lot of energy from Spike from Buffy. I think that feels right. I never had cable, so I missed that phase of television. Who played Spike? Okay, so I didn't watch Buffy until after college. Um, have you seen Do I need to get on that ship? No, I've not seen a single episode. Okay, yeah, no, this is the thing you have to watch immediately.

Season one is in whatever. It's fine, but it's taken out the most wonderful show that explores what it's like to be a woman and like to be a teenager in ankst and like pain and oh it's so good. It's so it's so good. Um, Josh Wheden, we have some issues with Um the guy who plays Spike. I'm forgetting his name, but he's he's good in that role. Uma, and and being seen Spike is pretty controversial. But I won't tell you more because you need to just watch it.

Okay, Okay, I will do it, and then I will come back to you. And I promise, Um, whoever is listening, even if it's just my mother, UM, that I will give you a recap on what I learned from from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Um. But I had an idea as you were explaining that to me of a glorious T shirt that I want to make you. That's just Peggy Hill's face, but then it says Spike underneath, almost like a royal I love that, like a royal, like the filigree and the Yeah, I love it's chaotic. I love

that no one will know what it means. But uh okayline, oh yeah, um you ready for another one? Okay, Spike hit me. Okay, So we all have to wear face masks now, Um, but if you had to make a face mask out of anything that wasn't fabric, what would it be and it would be effective? Like in this world that we're living in? Oh okay, Um My immediate answer was fur, but that would fucking suck and it would just sound like a head. Yeah it had

a beard. Yeah. Um. I think it'd be so awesome if we could figure out a way to make um, like big leaves and have them think like total fucking like Adam and Eve shit, and you just have like this giant monster leaf on your face but like connected. Oh my god, it would be so gorgeous. I like that a lot. I like the idea of just like some plants, some like flora on your face. I think I would do crystals, but I crystal land plants to be really good

together. Yeah. Yeah, let's fucking layer that ship up. Let's make some face jewelry already, So we need to get on that or someone's gonna steal our idea. It's true. Better stay busy. I can't stop winning. Wow, I want to know what's the best compliment you've ever received? You? I hate compliments. I should I ask another one. I don't think too. I don't mean to make you rash, No, I just

I don't. I literally have anytime someone's ever said anything nice to me, I wanted them to just immediately stop talking, and I just like basically don't listen to them. Um, which might be like a deeper issue that I should like explore or whatever, but um, it's such a you know, it's such a Minnesota thing. It's also like I don't know, there's like some other shit going on there. I'm sure, but um, people tell me I'm like smart and funny, So that's really nice. She is smart

and funny. Hell yeah, dude, yeah, Um Okay, you're ready for your last question? Yes, okay. If I got a dog, what a what kind of dog would it be? And what would you name it? If your name is Spike, I would name the dog Lee. And I think if you got a dog, it would be the kind that looked really cute and like a like a pair of not goggles but like sunglasses that I'm not like, not like an accessory dog, but like I'm seeing you on like a moped sidecar action. So it's like a medium sized dog.

That's it's like a smaller version Aradale. They're like thatenic because you have asthma. Um. I grew up with Airdales, so yeah, that's the perfect Yeah. No, like literally I had two air Dales, one named Kellev, which means dog in Hebrew, and one named Eady, which I named after the eads and great gardens. So that's hilarious. God, there's so many good lawyers to you. You know me so well, oh my god, with this little costume of the day when this goggles. We never

put the dogs in goggles, but I like that. Wow, they have a good head for goggles because they have that longer snout. M I did not know that. That's really lovely. Wow, so funny. I had a buddy um growing up that had an Airdale as a farm dog, and they're you know, I guess my first blush with Airdals was through the beanie baby. They're like a tall they're a big dog. Yeah, they're like eighty pound dogs. They're not very well known, like a lot of you

don't see them very often. It's kind of insane that you just said Airdale, Wow, And so it is. Aliens among us. Aliens among us are are deals. I think about the answer. I love you so much, thank you for playing this, I love you my friends. Funny friend means spike, I spike bye. And if you got this far in the
