And then there's also on your Marina is here, welcome back to the show. Anya, and we are lovers and we have sex every day, every day, every single day. Um. And then Noah is also here. Hey Noah, how's it

go overs? Part those balls with your nose? I told Chris about that where Noah said that sometimes she likes to put her nose between the ball sack and part each ball will fall upon each nostril. Maybe tonight. Because we have sex every day, every single day. Uh, Chris is not taking part of this. We are out here because I was at the well. There's a lot of reasons. Um. We were here for the Critics Choice Awards, which was

last evening last night. Did you guys see did you guys see what Nikki or did you see what she looked like? Do you see in Cinderella come to I love your face? I love your face? Noah, because that's exactly what I felt. So Mickey. On page six, you are number twenty best dressed number? Were they ranking it? Like? Are they saying best? Yeah? Out of seven smokes, that's good, but they really are ranking it? Or they like there's seventy best dressed people and here's just a random or

is it a rank? I think up there it looks like a rank. And you are number twenty. Who's ahead of me? Like? Who's right ahead of me? Um? I'm guessing that What's who? Who are? Sorry? Sorry? Gaddy? I like her Santa Clair University number one. Don't even know where she went to school because I went there. This podcast is misery to me. Uh, Kathy Bates? Um, Okay, wait, Who's who's above me? Um? I'll tell you so. Roy Plaza let me just guess who is the best number one?

That was such a good dress, your enthusiasm for it was unnecessary. I mean I whispered in Chris's ear like that's a dress, and then he went on and on and I go, you give him an inch and your boy boy? Okay, that's what did he play in Maverick. The most tense moment Nikki and I have had in ten years was when I said, Hey, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go tell Glenn Powell, uh that you want to say? Do you want to say hi? To him?

And I was just totally joking because I was getting up to go say hi to a friend who was sitting next to him, and He's like, don't do that. I was like, yeah, I'm not going to, but I'm going to. And then she was like, no, seriously, of course I'm not going to go tell Glen, the most handsome guy there, that I can't to say something to him. I was like, oh my god, what am I even

going to say? I was going to tell him I was gonna say hi because we used to see each other at the we went to the same gym, yes, because we were chasing the same body say he got there, he got there first sooner and remains there. But yeah, he was there. He looked good. He did look good, not as good as you looked. I was even saying to him. We saw Powell, who notoriously has been my like, I was like, god, he's so attractive, Like I was just very attracted him when I saw him the Maverick.

You were into him, yeah, and not in a weird way, not in a weird way. I was just like, to me, he stood out like he's THEO James level of like, who's that? Like, there's sometimes actors that get you, you know my and I'm into THEO James. I don't even know who that is. No, I did not know that this was a thing for you. What really? Okay, so THEO James, it's the guy who are pas like, who's

might be cheating? Yes? Okay, yes, yes, I felt I felt like you knew that for some reason, we've all hung out together so much in my dream, We've spent so much time on road tripping and just banging. Uh No, but this guy Glenn Powell. When I the other day, I was like, everyone on the podcast knows I've been really into Chris's new haircut and just been like have a renaissance of horny nous for a guy that I've been with for a really long time in a way

that you just are like this. The other night you were talking and I said this on the podcast, but you're talking to me about about something logistic about like and I just think, you know, a good goal for us would be to you know, have a routine and you know, we go to dinner, we have like you

were talking about something. Yeah, there was something like and I just couldn't listen to you because I was like I felt like the way I'm sorry to say that this is a different way to feel than with your boyfriend, but you know when you're dating someone new and you haven't kissed yet and you kind of are just like looking at their mouth a little bit and you're kind of like, oh my god, I can't like I think I'm going to get to do this, but I don't

know like where you're just I started kind of looking at you like that, and I was like looking at your mouth, like, God, this guy is so fucking hot. Like it was so good. It was such a nice

moment to have. But um, later that week, I was online and I saw Glenn Powell and I saw a picture of him looking really hot because the algorithm can read my mind, and then they served it up and I almost send it to you because I knew that you knew I was into him, but I was gonna be like, you've got he's got nothing on you, Like I really felt that way. And then we saw him at this thing and I go again, like, my guy is just I'm so into this. My man's look right now,

it's really nice here. You just really you just really like me? That that that sort of yeah, I guess that is like from like how much intimacy you're having in your relationship, Like sometimes you get more attracted to someone based on the conversations you're having and stuff, Anya and know what, have you guys ever had any moment that kind of a reminiscent of the um where you of of the moment we had where he was like I'm gonna go tell him, you say I, and I

was like, please don't. He's like, I'm just joking. WHOA Like you think I would do that? Like you don't know me? Do you does that? Because we have that sometimes of like these big misunderstandings where I'm like, you're joking and I think you're serious, and you're like, are we even a couple? Because why would you even think I would ever do that? Was like, why did you yes, like ruin your bespurts your good name to like, you know a guy who perfect name perfectly. I'm sure he's

a perfecly friendly guy. When I stand for it is not good. But my name itself Nicky, Yeah, it's almost as good as Vicky Seltzer. Yeah, that's my my stage name. Um do you guys do does anything come to mind of moments like that where it's like do you even know me? Where Matt maybe misconstrued something you said. I can't think of that, I was. I was thinking, I've definitely had that moment where he either gets a haircut or there's something and I'm just like, I can't know.

I can't believe this guy with these biceps is my guy? Like I've had that. I can't think of do you even know me? But I will, it's just not coming. But you're you recall moments like that in your relationship where you've been together with this person for so long and they questioned something about you, and you go, what is this the first is this our first date? Like and then you feel so misunderstood. No, you relate to that. Yeah,

it happens to us all the time. Like abb will say something in jest and I take it seriously and then I like start like, wait, what do you mean the shirts off? You know, and he's like, no, I'm just kidding. Don't you know my sense of humor? How long have you been together? Yes? Do you have one to share? No? I don't think so. I will say that you're you're that That moment last night was very quick and you weren't. Nikki wasn't in the greatest like headspace,

like hanging and laughing. I went into it feeling so good. So this weekend we had such a great weekend. We were on the road Albany two shows Friday or Thursday and Friday, which is awesome because usually if I'm doing two shows, it's in one night and we have to stay in one city for two nights. So not the

best city to be in for two nights. But you know, flat Mignon of the actually it is beautiful, like the downtown area, but your Portland was amazing to sold out shows in one night, asked theater, I mean, how many seats was it? Shows in one night? And said they're really cool people too, and yes, thank you. They were Portland, Maine. I realized it the first. After the first I was like, these people are sucking get it on a level that you know. There's been a few towns I've gone to.

Santa Rose I remember was a particularly great crowd, uh Seattle, particularly great at Tulsa, Oklahoma city where you just go there's something else extra, like they have a darkness to them that I don't have to ease into it, like they're just ready to like do anal right away. You don't even have to love them up, Like it's almost like they're already wet for whereas some crowds and I don't begrudge them this. I come from one St. Louis. You need to ease in a little bit, like and

that's fine if you're not from those towns. Don't feel like, oh she thinks we don't get it. But Portland, Maine, they were just dirty, right, not dirty, but just dark right away. And then I thought about it, and I go, that's where Stephen King is from. And Stephen King if you really look into some of his stuff. I haven't read a lot of his work, Like I haven't read any really. I think I read Salem's Lot and then

I started reading this other book. But I followed the SubOrbit called books, and they often get into his stuff, and he is the most twisted motherfucker there is. I mean some of this like pedophilia, incest, like really gross stuff that I mean, I think even now, people tried to cancel him for stuff he wrote in the seventies because it's so dark and so twisted. Um, but that's kind of a good that's a good point about even the material you're doing right now because I think you

mentioned the word dirty. I think sometimes that's that's what people expect. But right now what you're doing is darker than it is. Yes, you know, like there is because it isn't just dealing with you anymore. I mean there's some of that stuff. It's more, it's more, there's more like it's it's more dark than it is. Yeah, there's

been a couple it's new. It's cool it is. There'll be whole sets where I think I've mentioned this before where I just go like, oh, I didn't really talk about sex at all, and that's kind of what people expected me. And then when you get into it, you realize, oh my god, sex jokes are such easy laughs, because it's not easy laughs. I've never said it was easy. It's easy for me because I'm I enjoy talking about the stuff and it does. It's not hard for me to talking about my sex life. But it's um it

just in terms of getting laughs, it's easier. It's just a place to go where it's like guaranteed because people love and if I'm talking about something sexual, it's not well trod already, I don't think because I'm usually talking about stuff that is just so out there. I mean, I'm not putting You're not doing it for effect. You were doing it because it's it's just a natural part

of who you are, and you're open. You're open and honest about things, and you're you're saying things that maybe other people wouldn't be willing to say yes, And that is also why I just got into I just did a um if you guys want to check it out, I'm going to be in this podcast called The Celebrity Book Memoir Club Celebrity I Forget, I gotta look at the name of it. It's Chelsea Alvarez's show. It's not Claire Parker, it's Chelsea Alvarez. But it's coming out tonight.

And we covered the Hairy Book. And she usually only does female memoirs, but she made an exception for this one, and we did the Harry book. And I love it. Oh, Anya, has it? Are you reading it? We are reading it as a couple. I'm not together. Oh my god, I know, I have a only fifteen minutes in. I'm like, I'm doing the audio. Matt's doing the actual book. He's not cheating, and I already get it. I'm already like, oh, I'm in. I guess well, here's the thing that I just realized

in doing this book club with her. I love this book so much because for the same reason people are hating this book, which is like it's too overshare. They're like, we didn't need to know you that you had frost bite on your penis. We didn't need to know that you put a cream on it that your mom used to wear, and that you smelled your mom in the room when you're putting a cream on your penis. And I love it because people do the when you start to have those thoughts about this book of like why

did we need to know this? Because when you share little details where you go, I didn't need to know that, it builds trust with your audience to go, well, then they're not going to hide anything else. If they're giving me this little disgusting factoid, then I can trust them in other areas that they're not going to gloss over stuff. So that is why I really liked this book, because he talks about things that I've only heard comedians divulge on that level of um SPECIs specificity of I think

I said that wrong one. I think it put in a specificity specs. Listen, Andrew's not on the show anymore. Someone's got to pick up the slack. Sure no specificity spec city specifity, specifit, specifit seriously talking me through this so I'll never fuck it. Okay, specifit city and then city specificity, city specificity, okay, specificity Okay, I'll never work

it up again. UM see, I want to learn um so specificity that I didn't say that, Um, I mean I did so I would like, uh yeah, So I just like that level of like overshare because It just always reminds me. I said on the podcast too, that my when people are ever asking me for like my worst tackle story, it's always just a girl going after one of my jokes and I go, oh, really, does no one ever come You're you've never had tasted come before? And she goes, I mean, yeah, but I wouldn't talk

about it in front of people. And that was like the most shameful moment of my life because she made a really good point of like, we don't need to know this, Nikki, and so I really like that he he did that. I like that you like listen. I don't. I don't love every part of this, but I do appreciate that you do that you are that way because I think you make you And maybe I haven't read the Harry book. Maybe Harry in some ways have helped

make people feel less alone. When you're when people are that open and that honest about things, you know other people are thinking some of the same things. Sometimes not everybody is, but it makes those people feel a little bit less alone or a little bit less weird less. And that's what I do appreciate about what you do. And I guess what Harry Old Harry did in this book is so you want to the audio book for a little because it's insane. He's like, the past is

the past, but the past because of the past. How good the is the first you already got through it. But the moment that I turned to Chris in bed and I already said this on the podcast, I think, but I was like, oh, this is good. Was the moment that he says he I bookmarked it. He said, I looked at Willie, really looked at him, maybe for the first time since we were boys. Now this is at his grandfather's funeral. Is no, but Willie is what they call penises in in England, and so this whole

book he calls him Willie. So it's pretty much he hates his brother through this, like his brother hates him too, like they it's not good. This is they'll never ever speak again. I can almost guarante has any person have ever had a fall fall from grace like physically looking the way they look like Prince William has you mean because of how he's aging? Yes, oh, because of the

really yeah, I don't think that attractive. But he gives him a little dig just this is I looked at Willie really looked at him, maybe for the first time since we were boys. I took it all in his Leo scowl, which had always been his default, and dealings with me, his alarming baldness, more advanced than my own, his famous resemblance to Mummy, which was fading with time with age. In some ways he was my mirror. In some ways he was my opposite, my beloved brother, my

arch nemesis. How had this happened? And so that's when I go the baldness, the alarming baldness, worse than my own. I was like, oh, let's bangle up, just gonna be good. It is good the whole time. So, leaving Portland, Maine at four o'clock in the morning, to then get drive two hours to Boston and get on a flight to l A to land in l A at eleven and then I had to be at the Red carpet by three o'clock. Um. I was in great spirits because I didn't have to present an award, I didn't have to

do any interviews. I was just there to dress up. I already knew I lost the ward because they told me that they would tell me on Saturday if I want or not, and I didn't hurt. And it's great to lose to nor McDon I lost to nor mcdonn. Yes, yes, recipes, and that special to me was so fucking phenomenal. So yeah, I was more than happy to lose to him. There was no pressure on the day. I just get to be with my boyfriend. We get to go to this event,

we get to look at celebrities. We I get to dress up, I get to be with my hair and makeup team, my stylist. Everyone is so fun. I was like, so excited, and I started to hear this voice in my head that was like, Nikki, you're projecting too much in tomorrow. I was texting Cris being like, I'm so excited. I have no obligations. It's just gonna be fun. It's just gonna be the best day. And I was like, you are there's too many expectations. You are too excited

about this. And the expectations were not high because it's just all we had to do is have a good time. And I was setting myself up. I had this voice in my head that said, expectations are future resentment. And then I land and we will finish the story when we get back from this break. That's not the first time I've heard so land in l A. Go right to the hotel. My stylists are already here setting up a set up with the rack of clothing, and then my hair and makeup team is here all ready to go.

Chris meets me in at the in the um the valet with a fresh Starbucks that he got me. I mean it was so nice, you know, I'm so excited. Yeah, I get my hair and makeup done. We pick out the dress, which is gorgeous. I had tried it on before to maybe where do the People's Choice Awards and it we we deemed it to be like two awards showy for the People's Choice Awards, which is more like fun and like kind of flirty and like pop, you know,

but this is more regal. I was, like, what other opportunity I've I've no who knows if I'm ever going to be nominated again, Like this is where you get to really dress Oscar Glam Critics Choice Awards, And so I wore this like boost it like it's like I had a what's it called yeah boost where they of course at yeah of course set of course at top and bob bah bah booms, boobs out, spilling out the top very um bridge a chain and then um and his beautiful and it's like, you know, you really got

to suck into it. But it wasn't like deeply uncomfortable. The shoes definitely were. They were too small. They put my foot into it like a little wedge. But they were cute, but they were fair. Every shoe is too small, that's a good point. Even crocs. I suffer slipping those in there. I mean this was these were so painful, but it didn't matter because when your adrenaline is running, your feet don't hurt. I always say this. People always

go the boots. You were on stage, the heels, and I'm like, I don't feel my body is not like I'm having fun. I'm in the moment. I don't feel any pain. The second I stop, I step into the wings of the stage. I'm not even joking you. I will be on stage for an hour and a half not one single pain in my foot. I won't even think about my feet. The second the foot enters a dark space where there's no spotlight, it starts screaming pain.

It's such a psychological thing, and I ripped them off my feet and people always think, oh, you poor thing, and I go, no, they just started hurting literally one second ago, and this is it's bizarre. So as soon as the adrenaline right, it wore off of like getting into the car and I have to lay. I have to lay completely flat. I don't posted Tony posted on the podcast instance so funny. Nicky had to had to do like a reverse crunch leading all the way back,

wrinkled the dress because the dress is very wrinklable. And then also the corset I learned throughout the evening as I'm sitting down after the Red Carpet that never happened. We'll get to that in a second. I'm sitting the

whole day. The boning within the piping, like like the the metal that's in the corset bent as I sat, so it bent and slipped up at the bottom, and then when I stood up again, it's just bent like this because I've been sitting all this So it was very smart of me not to do that in the car. So it gets we get to the event. The Red Carpet closes at UM three three thirty, is what we're told, and I get there at three. I mean I could have gotten there at three five and if it closed,

it you can rush through the red carpet. I've done it before. And we get there and the red carpet is closed, which is not closed. There's a line. I see people in line to go to the red carpet, but we are being told you have to go downstairs to the basement. There is a step and repeat down there, which is like kind of the backdrop where people take pictures with. But I have to go, and I am about to cry because I'm telling you this was a

fun date for us, and it was. There were a lot of reasons I I went and decided to go. But if I would have been told that I would not get red carpet pictures, knowing what I know now, I still would have gone. I would have handled your

whole day differently. I would have No, I don't think anything would have been different I would have I don't think I would have gone, actually, because the whole point of this is to get a red carpet photo so that you can put it on your Instagram and people can go, wow, Nikki is famous, and then they give you like I hope you understand the listeners listening, I know that all of this is bullshit. It You got to know that projects that you do don't matter. What

you do doesn't matter in Hollywood. What you make rarely matters because not everyone watches everything. People watch like two things. It matters telling people that you're making things. Telling people that you're doing things. They don't watch the Critics Choice Awards, but they see an image of you there, so they go, she must be nominated people. I once made a joke that I was filming a super Bowl commercial. I wasn't.

I thought it was a joke. People assumed I was in a super Bowl commercial and thought that I had more value just because of the joke of me being in one. So this is like, it's all about getting that photo. And and I spent I'm gonna say, at at least on this whole endeavor not to mention waking up super early, flying all day, the stress of this,

so all for this. And then I get there and they're like, there's there's a little um, there's a ring light downstairs and a guy with his iPhone eight and you go, okay, great, And I was about to cry, like you see I Besti's know me to look at my face in these pictures. I am not happy. I am camera even when during the I look pretty, but I look sad pretty because I'm pretty. Yeah, yeah, I was.

I just was looking at pictures last night in bed with Chris, and I was like, I really couldn't fake it because I was trying to just be like just look happy and like let it go, Like it's not that big of a deal. What are you crying about because you didn't get to do a red carpet? Oh, poor Nikki. I was really trying to be like, maybe if I did the red carpet, you know me, I'm

trying to be like it was meant to be. I would have been shot on the red carpet or something like a lighting picture would have fallen on my head and I would be, you know, mentally handicapped the rest of my life. I was trying to think of all the things I avoided by not doing the Red carpet, you know. Unfortunately, I was looking at some pretty women that I was like, they could use a conk on

the head. Not that this is like a like an equivalent thing, but I always think because of the radio show, and this doesn't really apply if you don't have like an outlook like your podcast. But every bad thing that happens to you is also in a story that you get past. Yes, but I feel like the story of me walking the right carpet would have been better than the story that I didn't get to. And I agree, it's really just I know it's just a silver lining. No,

it's it really does help. And Chris, you do help with that a lot of times because you have changed your outlook on your life because of your radio show. I can tell when you bad things happened to you or like you can flip them and go this is

a good story, good radio story. It's a good radio story, and just doing things, I mean in general going to this thing which ended up being great, But the problem was I was in a bad mood about the carpet and then we sit down to go to the event, and beforehand were like in the area where there's like that shitty little red carpet thing in the basement, but

everyone is there. There's cold Stone Creamery like has a setup for people to get ice cream, but we're seeing so many celebrities, Like I'm like seth rog at eight o'clock, you know, who was the first people I saw when I got in there, Seth Rogan. I passed right away, and I was like, we got the throgs here, said gian Carlo espen Esposito was there, which was kind of fun for me. He's in Breaking Bad and stuff. But then Johnny Knoxville Laura Prepond. Great, she's on the list too,

behind you, way behind you. She looked amazing. Well, we made a joke when we first because he didn't see her, and I go or a Prepond, Really, it's funny because you didn't know. I didn't even see her. He was just you know, making a dumb paun and he was like, yeah, more like Postpond or something like, just like about her age. But he hadn't seen her. And then we get it and he goes, oh, I had holy shit, And I go easy like he goes, no, more like Laura, what

it was your second joke? Thank you. She's a great example of someone who's embracing their pallor and doesn't need a spray tan. You always talk about like I need more examples of girls that they're not like me, though they she's not like me. No, her skin is different than my skin tone, my skin tone has like an a grayness to it, and you can see my veins underneath. Hers just looked porcelain, so does yours? So does know? As they're like, I don't know about that. Is there

a spray white? Like? Can you spray yourself white? We should ask? Dita Fanti's speaking. Yeah, I finished the Manson duck on HBO, oh my god, on to watch the Maryland Manson documentary. It is wild that man is walking free for anyone who like and Dita Dita is it? Cat Vonde had a party for him. I mix up her in Dita Dita is not associated with Manson. Dita's in Bejeweled, the music video for Taylor Swiftode was married. Yes, she or she dated him? Really they were married? Oh

my god, well she escaped. She's not She's not co signing anything he does now, because after you see that documentary, anyone who supports him, I think cat Vond just had a birthday party for him. Disgusting. Do your research. He is a rapist. He's disgusting. I mean, what was us rizing? HB Max. I only bring that up because you were talking about how sometimes when people give details of things,

like Harry and spare you believe it more. There's this one part where Evan rachel Wood is talking about how she's trying to break free of him and like he whipped her trigger warning with a whip from the Holocaust because he collects Nazi paraphernalia. He whipped her many times with this kind of a whip. Like that is a detail you don't just make up and pull out the air right of believable detail. He is a monster. Would you say, don't you think he belongs in prison? Absolutely?

And it's it's it's not that he's not the same with army hammer, Like get these men behind bars, they're awful. Did you talk about a hatchet wheeling hitchiker hitchiker? Oh my god, it was fucking the worst thing we've ever seen in our lives. I gotta say the girls chat, which I talked about on this, we were looking everyone's looking for things to watch, like girls, what should we what do you recommend? And carl I was like, hatch wielding hitchhocker y'all, And then Kirsten even was like, oh

my god, so good. And so Chris comes over the night, I'm like, let's put on the hatchet wielding hitchhiker and we could not believe. It's a little bit of the I think no, I think I would have hated alone too, if I've watched it alone together, or like embarrassed, like you were embarrassed, and then I was like this kind of stinks. And then we were just like because I suggested it and said my friends had said it was good, I didn't say which ones it would. It wasn't crazy.

It was created for you. Um did you see it? No? Oh yeah, I told you not to. Um it is I mean, can you say exactly what it was? Because

it's a story that could have taken fifteen minutes to tell. Yeah, it should have been like a like one of those sixty minute murder things with a narrator who was like really good and compelling, and instead it was just a bunch of turkeys retelling the same sort of story and sort of just like overlapping each other for you know, an hour and thirty five minutes, and you know, nothing

was all that compelling. It honestly could have been a twelve minute documentary where you just get the full story and you're like, oh, man, I can't believe that was a moment how dumb they think we are. It was one of those times where I go, I wanted to turn it off. We got almost got to the very end, and you're like, we got we gotta watch the last three minutes. I go, this has been disrespectful of our

time in the hold time. I don't want this. I don't want the numbers to say I finished this, because they're studying you. You gotta walk out of a movie if you think it's bad. You have to get you know, if I would have known that, I would have I would have been like, oh yeah, definitely, Well, yeah, I don't. I don't want them to. I'm mad we even got that far. But at that point we had we were just having fun, making fun of how bad it was. Just nothing. It was like the Cecil Hotel documentary, which

I thought more compelling. I mean, that was a three part that should have been thirteen minutes. Remember the girl in the elevator that saw do the weir? Yes, yes, that was actually good. That's an interesting story. This wasn't that good of a story. Um, and you haven't even gotten this one part. And I got to the one part, I'm like, it wasn't that good. Sorry, Carlos. But I just I really resented the time, the time it took from my life. I resent right now even spending any time.

No, no no, no, no, it was. It was bad. Do not watch it, everyone, or do watch it and let me know how much it sucked with me? Um what were you gonna say? No on Phoenix Rising could have been one part. It was two parts. They really like milk that it was a little bit long and lingering. Yeah, I need to have these things up or at least give the option HBO max to speed up the speed, you know, at least do Yeah. Netflix is kind like that and you can get through it a little bit faster.

But um so, then the People's Choice or the Critics Choice Awards there it is star fucking study. It was. It was. We chatted up Wells and Sarah Higland. I ran into them again, also hung out with them at the People's Choice Awards. They were nice to shut up, and then we took our sea at a table and sitting next to us were because we could see on the table like people's name plates was Matt Smith, which did not ring a bell to me, but he is a Game of Thrones guy, and the Crown doctor who

the Crown. He's a huge year. He was in a movie with Jared Leto That's a big deal. And that was Chris. For a second, he looked like Chris. He looked like Rob low So then from U t A. But he was great to sit next to. He was hilarious and um, yeah, the cameras thought we were coupled because at one point I was just like kind of I was just like naming this way. My arm was like flush with his. He's a gay guy. I felt like comfortable with him. We were kind of like just

browing down a little bit about he was. He was really cool and yeah, they thought we were They gave us a two shot and Chris is in front of me. Chris was right right next to Kate Blanchett. She was right in front of us, and he helped her with her chair when she came back after winning an award. He pulled out her chair. Convy, Yeah did she man? Yeah, she gave me like a killer. You guys got a suitar. It's a great film for a couple to watch and then really discuss after it's why is it going to

cause some tension? Are we going to go? It's fun to piece things together. There's a lot of clues in it, and you're like, wait, did you catch this thing there? Because that totally corresponds to this other important thing. That's kind of fun. Okay, would you watch that that? That's the thing about the critics choice of words. I wanted to watch all those movies, everything, everywhere, all at once.

Fer was I mean, is unwell? Um? Sorry everyone? Physically no, physically he looks great, he's emotionally a broken man and he's crying like, it's just I'm sorry. You're actors and you played a fat guy. I can't like, I don't care about You're going to give Austin Butler a pass for pretending to him fast because I just do believe that when you, you know, portray a characters, it can be in your DNA. Well, then why can't that happen

to Brendan Fraser? Probably broken? I actually made a joke that was like, why can't you know Brendan Fraser is not getting any ship for wheezing up there? Because he was I was like, is he's still playing the fat character? Because he came up with stage he was kind of like and I was like, oh, he's doing you give us the butler ship for playing Elvis. He's still like has a fat guy, and don't get mad and be like you're fat shaming. Fat people are out of breath sometimes,

so whatever. So I mean, that was a joke that was kind of proud of to you that I whispered in your ear that I didn't think you got because it was a little bit. I mean, we're not even getting it now, no one should. But anyway, Brendon Fraser gets up there and he's he's like he's out of breath because he ran up there. I mean, that was it was just a dumb joke. But I'm talking about his emotional state. I don't he I feel bad for him.

He was sexually harassed in the industry. He was put out to pasture and he came back in with this with a couple of performances recently. But he did the Mummies and then we didn't hear from him and he was really like done. Apparently he was the best green screen actor, like nobody could react to things that weren't there except with cold fronts and stuff. Pretty impressive. So, but um, and they're always acting like they're like kind

of buddies with a sports guy. God like, they're pretty good actors that they all act like they like each other. But Brenda Freezer just got up there and I found I think some people would be like it was so moving. He gives it a moving I found it completely unhinged, and that's fine. I'm also that way, like I get put on the spot sometimes and I just show up as I am, and I'm you can tell I'm going through a mental crisis. I think he needs all hands

on deck. He is not well. I was watching a man up there win an award that I'm like, he's going through something. This is too much emotion in this moment and it wasn't like the right kind. It made me feel awkward. I don't know. Maybe did you not what did he cry about? On on Wednesday he won an award I think the first award that he's won. Maybe Okay, maybe ever really unwell because he was weeping

or was it weeping too much? It was just too much, and you know, I love a guy who cries, and he just seem it wasn't that he was weeping, it was that he was so like like emotionally was it was that he had no ability to pull in the emotions, which it just isn't the place for it sometimes, like let that out on your own, Like listen, I never do I begrudge someone having their emotions. I like, I love emotions and I'm jealous of people that can have

them more openly. I just felt like this was unbridled and there was no there was it was. It was just uncomfortable. I felt uncomfortable, and I rarely feel that way. I just thought you were cynical about the whole night. This is what happens to me at award shows. Now. I did it with the People's Choice too, and I said on this, I look around and I go, this is a middle school play. Everyone's playing dress up. All of these people just want to be loved. They all

want eyes on them. Everyone's desperate for attention. None of this is really about like telling stories and oh everything's up that all they all they do is tell I'm a storyteller. You're an actor. You want to be rich, you do your mom and dad didn't like you enough, Like stop this, I get it. You do tell a story with it. You didn't even write it exactly on your Mike White is a storyteller Jennifer Coolidge isn't She's

just a comedic actress. Like, yes, we can harald them, we can celebrate them, but stop acting like these people are heroes. So I got I'm getting depressed in real time in the room because I'm looking around and I'm just seeing and I'm not above it. You all know that, I definitely. I just told you I wanted to post on Instagram so people like me more. I play the game.

But it just made me sad that all of these people, even Jeff Bridges is playing the game, you know, like he's a little bit more sincere he got it like a Lifetime Achievement award. It just it made me sad because I look, I look around me, and I just see desperation from everyone, and I see fakeness and I just see people having conversations with people they don't want

to have. It made me not want to get up and go up to people and be like I love your work, because I just was like, it's because I want something from this person, and this person is already giving people so much, Like I don't need to go get a selfie with Jennifer Coolidge, Like people just want, want, want, because it's going to elevate them, and it made me, I don't know, I was kind of having an existential crisis. I think I have it in these moments because I

also have the thing up. I'll admit it. I feel invisible. I'm like, I'm looking at Janelle Monet and looking at when they're listing off her achievements, and I'm like, this twenty seven year old girl has achieved more than whatever. How over old she is, I'm guessing she's like late twenties, maybe early thirties. She's one grammy, she's what she is. They the way they talk about her, She's like, she's done so much, and I'm like, even though I've done

so much, I'm sitting in the room. I'm nominated. All I did was like walk on stage with a microphone and go like this is why I useduld do anal sex and I like had a little ted talk about and these people are like putting on performances and the lighting and like all the things that goes into these movies, and I'm like, I'm never going to be as cool as these people. It's kind of depressing me in that way.

But also it was depressing me because I was like, I don't want to be because I see how sad this all is and how the only person that actually did it seem to care to be there and was just like keeping it. Really person of the night and the funniest person of the night by far, his speech seth Rogan a real that's a real person who just likes to make things. Isn't trying to tell stories. He's not a storyteller. He's just trying to make funny stuff.

I don't mean to take anything away from what you're saying. I just have a different perspective on the night because I came at it from a different perspective. Nikki might have felt differently if her day didn't stop, didn't start out so uncomfortable. Literally, when I was sitting it, Nikki sent us audio of the car driver who was supposed to take her from the hotel in Portland, Maine, to to the Boston airport, and she's like, listen to this

poor man struggle with my bags. This is the audio of him after he got the bags into the car and it took him ten minutes. Okay, because he had the guy. He really made a display of how annoying my bags were because he loaded them for like twenty minutes, two bags in his trunk and kept taking men and putting back out, and I'm like, he, I wasn't even gonna attempt to help him, because it would have been

well official car service to pick me up. The girl was overslept, and so she called this guy to fill in, and then we met her at a truck stop and then she got in the car and drilled and said the way it was so funny. I'm like four in the morning, it was crazy, so um yeah, I don't know. I don't if I wouldn't have been deeply uncomfortable in my dress, I think because at the end of it, I go, why am I in such a bad mood? Chris, Like I don't get it, Like why am I so

sad about? Like I was sitting there falling into a deep depression during this thing and I couldn't And I go, it's because I'm in pain, like I was begging. Like when I was at the Peoples Choice towards, I was like, I can't wait for the after party because I was in this like nice dress that like breathed, and my shoes were like platforms, so they didn't hurt, like and

I was in such pain. I was like, I hope there's not an after party and I and it was because I and now I realized if anyone out there listening has chronic pain, it becomes so much a part of your life, you don't even notice what it is anymore, and you're just a bitch or a dick all the time because you're If you have anyone in your life that is just always a dick or a bit, it's probably and they have chronic pain, just know that it might just be that. Like it just it totally transforms

your your life. I do just want to say about the critics choice of where it's coming in from a totally different perspective than Nikki. I did see a lot of reason that this type of thing I have no love for, like zero celebrity worship in my bones, But I did love how much fun some of them were having. Henry Winkler was having his life, John Goodman was loving seeing Jeff Bridges like get celebrated. Yeah, there's there's there's

Julia Roberts was walking around having a good time. Yeah. Um, well, if you're totally dismissing my perspective, but I'm not dismissed. There were people there that were having a like a blast with each other, saying hi to each other and like celebrating and having a good time with speeches were more of this because there's more to be said instead of me. And I just want to say, I'm not comparing my corset to your mom's chronic like arthritis. Please

don't misconstrue those two. I understand the difference between my like Bunyan's being shoved into like pretty heels and you being like I have m S. I'm not comparing those two. I'm just saying it made me have a little empathy because I forgot about the pain I was in and I was such a bit. And after this break, we're going to come back and talk about some of the more celebrity sightings we saw, because it was a joyful night for celebrities and there was happiness happening all around us.

I was just a wearing an invisible cloak of judgment and negativity, and I want to try to find some silver linings because we did see some good moments. We're talking about those right after this. Okay, so we're at the Critics Choice Awards, which were three hours long, and at one point they started shoving categories together. They were like best Supporting Actor and Actress, and they like would give out to award. They would name two people and two people would come up and the only person to

call it out with Seth Rogan. When he got up to give his ward, he goes, can I just say, uh, why are they giving two awards out at the same time? Like when did this start happening? He's like, just make the show longer. This is on. He goes, I know you can afford it. This is on the seat. He was like, I know this can't be expensive television time.

This is on the c W at four o'clock. And he was like the c W, by the way, which is the only network that has no nominees this evening give yourself so funny again calling out the obvious always makes me happy. Of like and Seth Rogan, I have to say, is I thought he was gonna be like, like you know him, he's always like high and like kind of like having fun. But he was like you could tell he was just kind of like been through a million of these. I was just kind of clocking

him the entire evening, like is he having fun? Oh, he seems to be in the same position I am. And then he got up on stage and he was hilarious and and Chelsea Handler was so funny. She looked great. She hosted it. Um, who were some other standouts. We were also seeing a table with the other Game of Thrones girl. Wait what other Game of Thrones girl? Or maybe the House of Dragon's girl. I don't know, they're all little British. There was another table, no, the goody

the young girl. That was Milly Alcock, Milly Alcohol, I think you're saying it was another table at our table. Um, so we're the HBO was there and she came over and talk. So we were sitting with She's she's on the list. Nick. He was sitting almost right next to Matt Smith. Yeah and one a way. He seemed pretty cool. And then that Milly add Alcock was there too, sitting next to him, and they were having a good time. And then Claire Foy came over and started clowning with them.

They were laughing at the storm. A cool thing I noticed is that celebrities aren't that hot in person. It is really something about what film captures on them. Because a lot of these women, particularly, I'm like, that girl has an interesting face, Like I'm like, she must be famous because I just recognized it, like someone the Claire Foy. She's not. She wasn't like breathtaking, even though I think on film maybe I'm just breathtaking, absolutely, but in person

she just looked normal. Not like she didn't look beautiful, but she just looked there was something about it that was like, oh, I just want to stare. I wanted to stare at her so bad because she just looked like her face was just you were drawn to it. Um. Julia Roberts looked stunning. Um. Kate Blanchett looked so much like Anya. I couldn't even take it. Like she was getting her word and I go, Chris, she looks like because I kept saying, like, who does she look like?

She never looked better and she looked amazing. She was wearing a linen dress, like a khaki linen dress, looked like it was out of like yeah, but I have a feeling that even the fabric linnen was like, we can't wrinkle today, guys, this is you can't do this on this woman. Because she was just there was just an air around her. I mean we were sitting right next to her, were in the air. I could barely breathe. It was just like it was just a vibe she smells.

I mean, um good. There's no way that she is ever like like, there was one someone made a joke that I have in my act. Was it Chelsea? Yeah? I think she said something about water. She was like, you know something about this film is about honesty, and she was like, not the kind of honesty where women say that I've just been drinking more water and you know that they're taking zem pic, which is the diabetes

medication that every woman in Hollywood is on. Let me repeat, if you ever see a picture of a woman who's suddenly thin or is just slightly more thin than they have been most of their career, they are on a diabetes medication that makes them ship and feel sick and puke all the time, but they look amazing. It's you will never look like them doing their exercise regimen, doing their skincare regiment, eating what they say they eat in Allure magazine, Follow me for one week, That's what I

eat in a day. They're lying to you their exercise routine. It's not that they're taking a medication that makes them not want to eat. Okay, unless you get that, you won't look like them. Stop doing the regiments they're selling you. I'm telling you they're all Everyone in Hollywood is on this medication. I'm looking into it now. I will not take that. I mean, I wish I didn't have recovery from my eating disorder or else I would be definitely trying to get it. But I will not ever take

that stuff. Final thought, what were some other highlights of celebrities we saw for you? I mean, well, I got to well for me, it was like I got to see a guy I went to high school with win for Abbot Elementary and it was really cool because he was they went up to accept except the award and he was in the bathroom and that was fun. Yeah. Otherwise it's just been one of the suits in the background. But in said they were like Marker, he's in the bathroom.

That was a cool moment for him. Um, I'm trying to think of like there were some other people that I was just like, oh my god, I can really stand out. The one woman who won for Abbot Elementary who said I want you to pull in the camera. She was like, no matter who respects you, no matter they may not like you, they may not respect you, they may not love you, they may never like you. But as long as you can look yourself in the mirror and love what you see, that is all that matters.

That I was like, certainly not because you don't tell from my impression to it was a joke. Yes, she was. She was amazing. Ni, I feel inspired. It was awesome, And I was like, that's what people need to here because all like that was the one true moment of the night, which was like it doesn't matter. There was a lot of that, a lot of black women like

Janelle Muna being honored was incredible. And then uh, Nissy Nash winning Nie looked probably she was the number one for me that dress and her figure and like she looked the best, and she was great and excited and happy, and she said, you know, I was told I was always a comedy Like the comedy world loved me. And then you know I always told my mom like Mom, I'm a dramatic actress, Like don't you think I'm good

at drama? And her mom was like no, then, but she was like, you know, I always just I think there was a it was this sentiment was said a couple of times from black actresses that were told like, you you don't fit in here, You're not And I can only imagine being a black actress and coming up in the nineties as a lot of these women did they A lot of them were character actors throughout the

nineties and too early two thousand's. Only now has it become like we need to embrace people of color and film and we need to celebrate them and like push them forward. But it must have been fucking hell back then. Every single lead goes to a white, thin girl or like, you know, like everything. The other roles were probably just like these these like token rolls that weren't that cool. Yes, and man, it was a celebration last night. It was

it was it Actually, what did people treat you invisible? Now? Listen, Nikki, wouldn't hear when when people telling you no one cared, no one, laser, I love no one. Yes, yes, yes, several people came up to and that was one reason I was like, let's let's walk around, let's go side of these people, like I love it when people celebrate Nikki and we weren't giving We weren't giving many people an opportunity to do that table. Nicky didn't get up

once from the table. My shoes hurt too much and the dress was bent, so it would have looked like I had like a fucking laptop table coming out of my airport. It looked like an airport table sticking out of my stomach. So I couldn't get out. Was like, you know, you would have to You would have to walk by Nikki to know she was there. And you know, most people looked like I was waiting at the DMV. My face was just it was it wasn't a good look for me, you know, I was I was just mad.

I was just sad, you know, like I hate to say this. I got home and I told Chris, I'm so sorry that No. We got in the car and I go, I'm sorry. I couldn't rally like there were multiple times. I don't know if listeners relate, but do you ever relate when you're like you, you know, the moodarin is stupid. You know you're being a baby. You know that the circumstances do not there's no reason for you to feel this way, like you should be happy, but you just can't get out of it. Like I've

really felt like stuck in this. Yeah, Mud, I couldn't get out of it. And I immediately had perspective as soon as I got in the car and I go I kind of squandered that by not I knew I was squandering in the monument. I couldn't. I couldn't. I was so uncomfortable. And yes, people did come up to me. There was a lot of critics there because it was critics to a sword. So a lot of people that I've met on zoom calls that have you know, are on radio stations and do movie reviews, and I've interviewed

me for Foy Island. A lot of people that have only met on zoom calls like came up and we're like, oh, we've done and it was really nice. But there was no like there was. I didn't feel like a celebrity. I really felt like I was someone's date, which is not a bad thing to be. Chrisconby right here, I felt like I didn't belong there, even though I totally did because I was nominated. If I would have gotten to walk the red carpet, I think it would have had a more moment of like I'm a part of this,

but instead I saw people walking the red carpet. I was told you, it felt like you're not famous enough. I aren't going to make an exception for you. Go to the basement, and I just and that's so dumb. I should just have let it be. Everybody knows how hard it is to rally, even when you know that

you should, even in that moment, it's really hard. I was just sad because Nikki didn't give other people an opportunity to celebrate her, because you know, people were going up to each other talking about how much they loved each other, and yeah, it was stuck in a eat, buried in you know, like in between Jennifer Coolidge and Henry Winkler and Cap Blanche Jennifer there, Me and Jennifer were the only ones that didn't get up the whole time she sat down to and I kept looking to

see if she got up, and I knew she didn't get up because she would have been hounded. But I was like, if she doesn't get up, I don't have to get up. And it was really about my shoes. They just her. But people did come up to Nikki and did go out of their way to tell Nikki how much they loved her and have great trips. Anyone make you not want to walk to go get a diet coke like they It felt like putting on like putting my feet in bear traps. It's like fashion. What

don't they have waiters? They did, and we got good food though too. There was good hummus and I don't know woman, Yeah, we stole off Matt Smith's plate um when he got up, and then there was a good ice cream that they passed around. Like. So I was having fun, like eating my feelings and kind of um, just whispering little barbs here and there. But Julia Roberts

looked stunning. She was right behind me at one point, like if I would have just knocked my head back, I would have hit her with my head Like she was right behind me. Um. I felt like I was like, please, I want her to bump into me and just to say I like touched her. Um. Who there was some other like really really, James Cameron was there. Austin Butler was there. Who, by the way, I am I love Austin Butler. I Um. Chris did one of the funniest

things over the weekend. I did play it for Anya and can we just reference it on you you heard it? So Chriss's radio show the other morning, they were talking about Austin Butler saying like, you know this, this voice, it's just it's in my d NA, like I guess. Mario Lopez called him out on the red carpet, was like, come on, man, like the voice, you're still doing it, and he's like, you know, when you talk like this for four years for a part, like it just becomes a part of your d N A and I and

women all over the country are buying it. This is not of us. This handsome guy is trying to act like the coolest guy of all time. And everybody's totally makes sense. It's it's a part of his DNA. Yeah, it's like, oh, a really good looking guy lowers his voice, which, by the way, everybody knows, like in studies that if you want to like people to respect you and like you and be attracted to you, you lower your voice. And so he did it, and it's working on everybody.

Everybody's like, yeah, of course I'm enchanted by it, and so I. But if you're if your friend from high school goes to wait, hold on, wait for this whole innalogy because it's good. So Chris is on this radio show and they're like, you know, I couldn't even. I literally turned it off because I could hear Courtney was already like this is bullshit, and I was like, no one is going to stand up for this guy. Because

I am someone who morphs into people. If I am around Australians, I start like talking like this, like a little bit like it's just if you admire something you like, start talking like it. I really do think if I did a role and was in that character, I would have I would I would walk away with part of it. So I relate, and I think that at this point he's been made fun of so much, why wouldn't he go back to his normal voice. It's like, I guess he will slowly, but anyway, So I turned off because

I didn't want to hear. Sometimes on their show, if I have a dissenting, if they start like liking Brad Pitt, I just turn it off because I'm like, I hate Brad Pitt based on the abuse allegations that I've read about, and so I just turn it off and then turn it back on when they are talking about something I agree with because I can only echo Chamber, you know, and so I turned it off and I just wrote

to Chris, I'm team Butler. I think I think it's legit, Like I think it's okay that he still talks like him. And then Chris later that night, we have this thing where we can only we have this, so we're really into the show. I think you should leave Tim Robinson

Show on Netflix. And there's this Obsessed. There's this one sketch where he is a folk singer in a band and the fifties, and the lead singer the band is trying to get a record deal and he plays this song and they're like, we're just not looking there for that kind of music, and he goes, oh you're looking for something else, Okay, what about this? And he's like he starts playing the song and then the record exect

is kind of like whoa. And then Tim Robinson's character who he's like the bassist in the background, and he and the guy the lead singer just goes like, follow my lead, and so he starts singing this song like about it sounds like a Johnny Cash, sounds like a Johnny and from Tim Robertson's perspective, it's like he's making it up as he's going on, and he's like, oh, the lead singers making the song up, like let's make up a song together, and like wow, these exacts, and

then he just cuts in with like about that. He cuts in with a storyline that has nothing to do with the lead singer's storyline about skeletons coming out of the graves because the bones are their money and worms are there, and so he just does this whole song where he's like the worm, the bones are their money, the worms are their dollars, and it's that's like the melody of the song. You gotta watch it to understand it. And even then, I don't think that you might understand

your T shirt by the way, because you are there. Yes, that was a reference. It takes Tim listens to understand the nuances. And how funny the funniest thing. I hated the sketch the first time I saw it, and then the second time I was like, this might be the most genius thing, and then I have watched it a million times. So the melodies the bones are like and Anya's pretty like Anna, like were you watching it five times, I means there's something there. So the bones are there, money,

the worms are there dollar. And so I started we Chris and I started having conversations where we would do it in that melody, but we realized it was only things that were like too hard to talk about in regular something you would be like, maybe we should move in together. I think that it's time. I feel like we can get a bigger place. I feel like it's a natural transition for us. I'm not saying we should

get married, but maybe get a bird. Um. So we were laughing that that's that's like a really good way for us to convey like heavier topics to each other because that song makes us laugh so much and it makes us feel safe. It's like our inside joke. So then Chris was like, over the weekend, he goes, I have an idea just in the same line of like you and I, you know, communicate really heavy topics to each other with this like song. I think we should also be able to like be critical of one another

using the Bill Burr voice of like. And we also send each other Bill Burke clips all the time. And so Chris I go and I wrote back to it not wrote back. We were living voice memos, and I go, first of all, I'm really scared that you want to tell me something and you're gearing up to confront me, Like what do you need to criticize me about? I was so nervous. I was on the road. I was like, okay, I totally am into this. And he sounded it didn't sound like he was in a bad mood, like he

was about to confront me. So I was like, what is the thing you need to be critical? And it was really sweet. You were like, first of all, I don't think there's anything to criticize about you at all. There's your there's nothing. I would never criticize you. I'm just saying it might be funny, and so he goes, I'm gonna try to do I go, I would like

to see you give an example of this. But yeah, when handling hard topics, it's like I could try to make a case for myself and be like, hey, Glace, I know what you think about Austin Butler, but you have to consider these things. Or you could do it like Bill Burr and try to make like a perfect point with examples. Can I play it? Oh? I don't think we should do that. Really, I think it's really funny. Didn't do a very good impression. I don't know, it's so I'm sorry, but like I, I just don't think.

I don't think you understand. I would not air this if I thought it was lame at all, or if I thought it wasn't it. That's a great point. I wish I had, like it's a good point and tries to get this right now. God, so this is this is okay. So this is him gearing upward. This is a cute part because you're just you go, let me just try this. It's adorable. Oa. I don't know if I have what it takes to a fill for impression. And then here we go. I don't know.
