So congratulations on that because yeah, you're getting good good reviews, good ratings, all that important stuff. Now, you're going to you you went to
the Vanity Fair party, so you're in with the in crowd here. I am very rich and Famous, as you guys can tell. Obby, right? Um, no. I thought it was a mistake that I was invited. Uh, even my publicist who does the publicity for the show was like really confused why they were going to allow me to be there. Like, she's like, "Do you know someone that works at that restaurant? Like, why are you invited?" And uh, and I was so excited. I brought my sister and I saw you there and you you guys looked
amazing and I thought the nicest thing I Could do would be to not talk to you. Uh that was my gift to you. Oh, there's me and my sister. Um my road manager also. And um I'm sorry I didn't see you. I would have said hello, but it's it was crazy. There are a lot of people there. Everyone is so famous. I thought it was a mistake. I thought we would get there and somebody would hand me a tray and be like, "You're going to stand here and give out shrimp shumai." And I was like,
"Great. People love that." Yeah. Uh, but we got all doled up and we felt really beautiful. We were like, "Wait," because I think every woman you're you're like kind of suspicious like am I maybe gorgeous? Like maybe maybe I'm a model and I haven't just like stumbled on the right look yet, you know? And uh and I got there and I felt really good and and then I walked in and was just hit with a wall of all the Sports Illustrated uh Swimsuit models and I was like, "Oh, okay." Okay. And I understood like I'm
not really a woman. I'm just I'm harvesting organs for a real woman in case like if Kate Upton one day needs a liver, I'll be like, "Here, this is yours." Like, please. Right. I realized that night because I feel good. I know how to dress where it looks good on me. Like I highlight this area a lot like right above the knee or Here. Like this this 3/4length sleeve. This is not an accident. This is like Look, it's like what? How's there no ring on this finger? This girl is Look at this section. But then
like here it kind of hits the fan under here. It's like kind of like a lava lamp. Like things are things are moving and nothing really settles, you know? Just it's very confusing in this section. Oh wow. You're getting a lot of people that'll Be calling you now because that's I was um and and there's a picture that I saw that I don't really fully understand. Can you explain? Yeah. Oh, wait. Did don't put it up yet if you didn't put it up yet. Okay. Um so my sister, I brought her with me and uh
and I I saw the Hemsworth brothers standing together. God's gift to the world. The most beautiful men and maybe women walking around and I just said I was like, "Oh my gosh." And we'd already Taken our heels off because we were we're out of the running. Nobody's looking at us like women. So I'm like, "Get a picture of us." and my sister were so close. I've never asked her for anything. I've I've given her the world. So, we just get this picture of me with these gorgeous boys. So, I stand in the middle and this

Yeah, that's like the one thing we have over LA and New York. We're like, "Well, at least we don't have earthquakes." Um but uh I was I woke up to it and I I'd been like starting to see this new guy and and uh you really learn a lot about somebody during an earthquake Because I you know, you would

here? I cry. I just sit in my room balling. No, I uh Well, last last time I was here, right from the show, I I got court courtside tickets to a Laker game. That's fun. Yeah, cuz my My uh business agent thought I was mad at him for sexually harassing me. Um Well, but no, I'm like 33, so I'm just starting to really appreciate that. You know what I mean? Well, it's true. I I can't speak for everyone. I'm not like sexually har. But in your 20s, I feel like you walk around like you'll walk
past a construction site and be kind of like, oh, like don't look. But then in your 30s, you know, you I'm just like, what about this? Like Come up. It's like my skirts over my head. I'm like, they're like we're eating. But uh it changes. It really does. It changes. So, I I got courtside seats, which you sat courtside at a game, right? I thought I went I thought it would be free booze. Um, it's not it's not I guess you have to like be on the team to get free booze. So, I go I
get randomly seated next to Diana Egron. You know, the actress, she's on Glee. She Played the cheerleader Quinn. That I mean, that lets you know how hot she is. Yeah. Oh, there we go. There's the picture. Thanks for Yes. Isn't that great? She's like the most gorgeous girl ever. Her name was Quinn on that show. To pull off that name. Yeah. Like if my name were Quinn on a show, they'd be like, "Oh, the jolly Irish groundskeeper that does a jig time it again, you know?" But so she's there. Is she not like an angel?
So, and the whole night She's like she's like this because she knows people are taking pictures of her. I obviously don't. I learned a I learned that my resting face is just a scowl. It's [Applause] just And I learned, you could see that I have what I'm now calling an at risk chin. Um, this is not a good section. If I don't like keep it at sea level, it just doubles itself. Just I become the Dinosaur in the jeep in Jurassic Park. [Laughter] So, I'm like no idea people are seeing pictures. I'm pounding red wine
and I I thought it was free and I I'm get red wine teeth right out the gate, you know? Like just first like sniff of Merllo, just true blood mouth. I look like I've been feeding and I'm eating popcorn the way I think we all eat popcorn which is you know at first don't you always kind of start out kind Of like lying to yourself like oh a little hot like one piece at a time you know and then and then like you get a little more real right and then eventually you just like you
get real real and it's just like I've split my lip trying to get one more kernel It's true in my dumb mouth. It is true. And so that's what happened. If you Google me, it's me. And I learned I look like her. Actually, I look like her If she were stung by a million bees. It's true. I look like her if she were like becoming the Hulk. That's And she, you know, she wanted to be friends and I'm like, I can't I can't. We don't have We're not the same thing. Like she was telling me
hot people problems, you know? She's like, "He won't stop calling." And I'm like, "I hate that." Do you eat popcorn like that, though? Are you a popcorn lover? Yeah, I do. And I eat it exactly like that. Right. That's why I'm so annoy. I'm single again. So, I'm going to have to start dating some guy and we'll go to the movies and he'll be like, "Do you want to get popcorn?" And I have to be like, "Oh, I hadn't even thought about it." He's like, "What size?" And I'm like, "Small. Look at me and right
like a small part. That's like taking one Advil. Like get out of here. Get I want to tough and I want to Dunk my head in it and and then you know I'll be pretending not to think about the problem. Hilarious. So when you say you're going to start dating again, that means that you're are you dating at all? No, I um Well, I know everyone here is like, "How do we date you?" Thank you.

We'll be back. And yeah, we're back. We're back with the older, more mature Amy Schumer. Hello. Yes. Thank you. Yes. That's what's so amazing. You can transform into any character. That's that's what makes you a thespian.
like you really are. I've always identified as a thespian. Yes. Yes. And I can see why. Just take on any character and really really embrace it. Every That's Every drink you take is something you just have to act like it's the best thing you've ever had. All right. Let me see. Wow. That's really good. Yeah. Again, The acting is just on point. On point. Do you want to try? Yeah. To to act like that? Yeah. Just like the best thing you've ever had. But what I'm going to do is I'm going to act like I
hesitant. I don't want to drink it. I'm scared that it's not going to be good. And they're like, "Really?" Yeah. All right. Try it. Oh my god. Oh my god. It's delicious. Delicious. Good. You've got it. You have got it. Yeah. You and I should do something together one day. Yeah, we should do something. Um, so, uh, I understand your mom is into scrapbooking. Oh, yeah. Big time. Big time. Of of anything in particular or just your That's a fair question. Yeah. Um, just me. Uh, it's dangerous. So, she makes these scrapbooks and she puts
everything in them. Any magazine. She'll take pictures of the TV. Do you your moms do this? Like, take pictures of the television And send them to you. Things that I try and avoid. You know, it's a scrapbook, but I'll be like looking through it and it'll be like, "Is Amy racist?" I'm like, I'm gonna want to remember they're like, "Pregnant or just fat?" I'm like, "Thanks, Mom." Actually, I usually don't mind it, honestly. Yeah. I'm I'm used to it. I like the other day somebody wrote, "Amy Schumer's body is like a sack of mashed potatoes."
Yeah. And I was like, "Okay, now I need mashed Potatoes." Yeah. You know, and I did. when I had them. You had some. I did. Yeah. I love them. They're potatoes, but they're mash. Yes. There's nothing like a mashed potato. It's all in the name. Yeah. Um, but I I do think that I do wish we all had better like I wish I had male confidence. I feel like men you can really see it with the way they look in the mirror. They have like a mirror face. I noticed this too. Any of the Guys
I've ever dated, they're like normal sweet guys and then they look in the mirror and they're kind of just like it's like a superhero of James Dean and Clint. were kind of just like I'm like, "Dude, you're in software. Like, what are you?" And it made me pay attention to my mirror face. Uhhuh. I was like, "Well, what do I do?" And I think a lot of women can probably identify with this. Mine's kind of just like, "Well, you Know, and I was dealt." All right. Well, right. Oh, that's hilarious. That's very, very true. I'm
excited about this movie. Yes. Uh, tell me about I Feel Pretty. So, I Feel Pretty is uh it's a movie. It's about um my character Renee. She she kind of has low self-esteem and she she really wants to be pretty and just feel all the parts of life that open up to you and you're just like gorgeous. And then I fall off my bike and Soul Cycle And I start seeing myself as a supermodel. So, I look exactly the same, but in my mind, I am Jazelle. I am one of the Jenner Kardashians. Gorgeous. And
just things start happening and and you really it's a really funny and sweet movie that I think will make us all feel better. It made me feel better to play the role.

So, so we were just talking about uh the birthday party which you were at. Oh, thanks for having me. Thanks for being there. But you literally were telling everybody you were getting married. Like that's right. And everyone thought you were kidding. I know. I Because celebrities are supposed to be quiet, right, when they're getting Married. And I we were going around. We got engaged that morning. So we were going around everyone

the dance floor and you were in the zone. I was I was dancing. I couldn't I couldn't stop you. It was like a flash dance situation. Yeah. Yeah. So then I text you after. Yes. And you said, "I'm getting married. Would you like to come?" Cuz Porsha said Amy kept telling Everybody she was getting married. Everybody who would listen, the caterers, the the valets. She really thought you were kidding. I know you thought I was kidding. Yeah. But then you texted and said, "I really am getting married and but I was doing a show. I
would have gone." No, everyone has an excuse. So, wait. So, well, congratulations. So, you got married like two days later. Yes, we did. Yes, you did. I'm so married. So now, now I was kidding about Barefoot and Pregnant. Will you Do you all want kids? Well, here's the thing. I have never wanted kids. Um, and then I saw myself as a baby on your show and I thought, who am I to deprive the world of such a beautiful baby? Yeah. Look at that baby. Yeah. Yeah. So, I think we're going to do it, but just
use my genetics. I say just yours. Oh, it'll look exactly. Look at that. Yeah. What a beautiful baby Butt. That was the last time you came out here. So, wait. Well, first of all, I I'm really excited for you. I it was it had had you known each other long? Um no, we met um in a parking lot outside your party. Oh. Uh we've known each other about a year. We we'd already been living together for like five months and uh and I we knew I was like I'm done. That's great. Yeah. That's when you
I locked it down. That was at your party. Yes, that was the photo booth we had. Came out. Um so wait, so and and how is M what's changed if you were living together? What? It does feel different, doesn't it? It does. And I like just being in one place, you know? I just feel more settled. I haven't been on the road as much. And it's good for me, like for my health, cuz I'm one of those comedian, you know, when comedians like blame their behavior on the city that they're in, you know? So, they're
like, "Oh, Houston, you guys got me so drunk Last night, you guys." And they're like, "No, we had work today. Like, we didn't Sacramento. You made me have sex with a stranger." And they're like, "No, you're in a really bad place." That's That's just your fault. It's not the city. It is you, ma'am. Turns out it's you. So, you're he's a chef, right? Yes, he is. Is he at a restaurant? I don't know. Yeah, that's How smart is that to marry a chef? Oh my god. You know, I think I think a sexy Thing to
do, this is a little bit of a life hack, is to if you, you know, say your husband's a fireman to kind of dress up some cute like wrap the hose all around you, you know, or or like but he's a chef. So, what I do is um flour. I I learned how to make pies, so I'll put flour. You know, it's just cute. But yeah, see, some people do just a little flour. But no, what I do, I roll around in raw eggs and then flour and just I'm a sexy Chicken cutlet. He loves
it. He loves it. Now, is he a chef at a restaurant or a private chef? Oh, he's the real deal. Really delicious. Wonderful. I'm happy. And also, he's cool. Yeah. I mean, I guess I'll get to know him in the coming month. Yeah. But first and foremost, he's a chef and that's all you need. All right, we're going to take a break more with Amy after this. We're with Amy Schuber. That is the new movie I Feel Pretty, which you came here and debuted. Uh, and it looked funny just from the trailer. I saw it
the other night. It is hilarious. Thank you. And has a great message. I mean, especially like that end scene where you start talking. It's just like I feel like not just women but men, everyone should see this movie. And but that message at the end, every young girl should see that just for the end scene. Just skip to the end scene. That's what you should. Really? What about watching the whole movie? All right. Watch the whole thing. That's fine. Have some popcorn till the movie ends. Watch the whole thing. Thank you. Thanks for saying that.
And I texted you right away saying, "I thought it was so good. Poor meant a lot to me. Thank you so much. Explain the concept." Okay. Um so I'm going to explain the concept to you guys. Uh it's about a girl who has really low self-esteem, which none of us Can relate to. Uh no, she has really low self-esteem and she she feels invisible and then she falls off her bike and soul cycle and all of a sudden sees herself just as a gorgeous supermodel uh and everything changes for her. And it's, you know, it's
really about learning to love yourself, which is what makes somebody the most attractive. And it's true. It's like everybody has some like there are people that have all kinds of dismorphas like you know body dysmorphia And they think that they're too fat when they're too skinny and there's all kinds of so if you just actually believe that you're beautiful why not what's wrong with just believing and knowing that because it's the confidence like you said. Yeah. Just it's all mental and your confidence should come from who you are and what you do and you need
to do the work to love yourself. Yeah. And then you feel great and then you wind up getting a chef husband. Yes. You get a Chef husband. So, not that that's the end game. It's not about I never wanted a husband. What? Get the government involved in love. I thought it was weird. But, you know, suddenly suddenly all of a sudden Yeah.

me uh about tell me about your child and why you changed his middle name. His name is Jean. [Music] Um really no reason. I mean look, you know how sometimes parents by accident name their children genital? No. The old mom's tale of weddings. So my favorite comedian David Tell I wanted to pay tribute to him and Chris's Mother's name was Jean. So Jean Atel Chris's last name Fisher. So we realized about a month in it sounded like I don't know genital fissure a month in. I mean like you're so vulnerable during that time anyway. And
then it was just like we messed up so bad right out the gate. It was just like, "Okay, well, the pressure is off now because we have royally his wife." All right. But it's Not. So, what's his middle name now? Oh, this is so embarrassing. It's mess up again. Oh god. I'm just I'm so nervous about it. I feel like I should call a consultant or something because naming is not my thing. Not my thing. [Laughter] Boing, right? All mothers, all mothers go through this, right? You guys homeschooling, naming Your kids. You get it. Okay.
All right. Let's show a cute video that you posted. I want to show this and we'll talk about it. Mom. He said mom. He said mom. That's his first word. Or maybe he said bomb. Either way, I was excited. Yeah, that that was Well, actually, that's not his first word. Um I I am his second word. His first word is car. Um, which definitely hurt both of our feelings, but he loves cars. I don't know. Chris and I don't care about cars. Uh, but he is obsessed with any he like anywhere we go. If we
go to the beach, he just wants to be in the parking lot. He just wants to look at cars, which is really convenient because, you know, everywhere you go, there are cars. So, kind of lucked out. If he was like really into fighter jets, you know, it wouldn't be Sweet little genital. Um, we're gonna we're gonna get it all. Yeah, we're gonna take a break. I want to talk about He has a little toy kitchen and which makes sense because you married a chef and that you have a cooking show, but we're taking a break
and then we'll come back and uh see what we what what part of this we can air. Um, we'll be back. Well, God, you're so laidback and relaxed. Feel so at home. It is so good to be back here. Oh, thank you for having me. It's, you know, I haven't been on stage much and this is just it's it's like riding a bike, you know, I'm skirt when I'm doing it. Yeah. Um, you left the price tag on your shoes, but I'll get those off later. You can see them on the bottom. Those I don't
want people to know. I'm very rich. That's why I'm so laidback and easygoing in interviews. Yeah, I know. Oh, well, I love that you're so comfortable that you Can be like that. Hey, listen. Let's talk about uh Jean and the toy kitchen he has. Oh, okay. Well, see, it it looks like a toy kitchen. That is a real kitchen. Oh, okay. He cooks three meals a day for us, and that is the least he can do. Yeah, you see him in there. That's a shot of him. He was making us um chicken cordon blue. Oh,
wow. He's very good. He's so talented. He's so He cannot read and he only says two words, car and mom. But he is a five-star Michelin chef. Wow. Wow. That's very impressive. Very very Yeah. He gets it from me. He gets it from me. Well, sure. Sure. So, you're So, you're you're Yeah. So, you're learning to cook because now did you cook at all before you got married? I I've never cooked. I know how to make like three meals. And now I never have to learn how to cook because, you know, Chris cooks and uh
and I, as it turns out, I'm a terrible, awful chef Who cannot listen. Yeah. But you're doing you're you're you have your show Amy Learns to cook and so I would assume it's mostly alcohol that I've noticed. It is my part is alcoholbased and Amy Schumer learns to cook is a lie because I did not learn to cook and I am still what some would say some would call me worthless in and out of the kitchen. But no, I I did not learn how to cook. I seriously I people are like, "Wow, Chris is so
patient." All the all the comments Are like, "Chris is really patient with her." Yeah, he is very patient with you and he adores you and you can see that in the relationship. It's the sweetest relationship. Now, has he learned anything from you besides you learning from him? No. No. I mean, truly, not a thing has he learn I think he's probably forgotten some things that he knew. It is not. No, I am not easy to teach. I just want to shout out all my teachers Because I struggle with with learning disabilities and I just can't
I just can't. And I'm like, "Wow, I'm really learning it in the moment and then after it's just gone and then I'm back there like, how do I cut a tomato?" It's just it's gone. Let's show a clip from the cooking show and uh then we'll go to break. Okay. First, get yourself a whole pineapple. I have it pre-sliced out of laziness. We're going to make a batch. So, I'm going to put a whole cup of diced pineapples. I can remember my first pin colada. I went on a cruise with my grandparents. We went on
one of those like, you know, you're not in the shot. Don't talk to me. It's hard to work like this. I'm a professional and Chris doesn't know that he wasn't supposed to be speaking to me on the floor. But can I just say something about the pandemic with Chris? Yes. This is our relationship. It was Like it looked like it was going to rain and we're sitting we're sitting inside our house and I was like I just want to tell you babe this even though it's a pandemic. It's like this crazy time. This has been
the best time of my whole life. And he just looked at me and he said, "I'm going to go put the car windows up. [Laughter] [Applause] [Music] I did. And that's that's why it works. Yeah, that it's clear to see. Um, we'll be back more with Amy after this. Hey, do you do yoga? You're so flexible. I'm honestly I just do TM and I'm so sorry I didn't fit it in earlier, so I'm just kind of finishing up. Okay. Okay. Okay. Got it. Okay. Okay. That's great. No, it's very impressive. Um, okay. That was We
We just showed a a clip from uh Expecting Amy, which is a docu series about your pregnancy. What made you I mean, how did you decide I'm going to document this whole thing? Because who knew it was going to be that excruciating of a pregnancy to to go through? Yeah. Um I don't know. And I'm so glad I'm in this pose to tell you this story because um and isn't it interesting how my waist is kind of bigger than how my waist goes in my Skirt. I thought it was just your blousy blouse just kind
of blousing out of the skirt. It's just my body type. I'm like real topheavy and then I'm just People don't know this until you see me in person. I just become I've just become a little bean pole down there. Um, yeah. I don't know. We just started like filming it on our cell phones. Like I think it was actually in retrospect a defense mechanism because I was so sick And I felt like like you know having a witness like I wasn't you know going through it alone or something. But we just filmed it on our
phones for the most part and we're just like if nothing happens with this it's fine or maybe we'll just have a really fun home video. But we filmed the whole darn thing. It was amazing the footage that you got and the fact that you were I mean I knew that you were having a difficult pregnancy. I had no idea how bad it was And that you shot your special and were getting ready for your special while you were so sick. I mean, it's it's really if you haven't seen Expecting Amy, it's it's really great and
uh it shows you that you you you go through something like that, which would be terrifying, but then you have a baby that is who he is right now and precious and healthy and you're healthy and happy. You're right. I know. That's the thing. The whole time everybody's like, "It's so Worth it." And and I'm throwing up and I'm in the hospital and I'm just like, "Shut up." Like, "Everyone stop telling me that, you know? Um because people cannot stop giving you advice while you're pregnant. I don't know if you know that, but like everyone
was telling me I had to do prenatal yoga, you know, that that it helped with child birth. So, I obviously signed up immediately for a C-section and that has made all the Difference. Gog. We have to take one more break. I'm so sorry. Um, and maybe you'll be in a different pose when we come back. I'm here. All right. You're so mellow. We'll take a break back with Amy. I mean, Amy, I'm so impressed how flexible you are. Oh, thank you. Oh, I get really cramped in these interviews. So, hi, Jean. He's very confused. Thanks
for giving my mom her start. You've always you've supported her more than anyone else in her career. Mom. Say mom. Say mom. Say Ellen. Say Ellen's your mom. Ellen's your real mom. Let's talk about you going back to stand up two weeks after Jean was born. You missed it that much that you finally have this baby after everything you go through. You think you just want to rest and be home, but you went back to standup. First of all, I just want to say it smells amazing in here. And I Don't know who I don't
know if anyone else is noticing that. What? That's fine. What's wrong with saying that? It smells great in here. It's not I'm kind of not in between my own. All right. So, you went you went back to standup. Went back to stand up. Yes, I did stand up um like Yeah. Exactly two weeks after he was born. And um that was too soon. And I did regret I was just so Vulnerable and I don't think it was a particularly good set and the audience was like really supportive and I just was like trying not to
cry the whole time. Um and I was like leaking from all you know holds old and new and uh but I really miss I mean you must be missing standup too. It's been I just did stand up for the first time last week and it had been like almost eight months. I can't wait to see it. I can't wait to see that. Um I I know that you're out There protesting you're like protesting every day, aren't you? Every day. Yeah. At 10:30 a.m. I uh there was a woman named Dana Nunez. She was on Martha's
Vineyard. She was standing in this medium right after George Floyd was murdered with a Black Lives Matter sign. And we decided to come back the next day at 10:30 to kneel for George Floyd. And we we've met every morning since, you know, the beginning of June. And now, you know, between 50 and 100 people come And we every day we honor the life of a different person of color who um whose life was stolen by law enforcement and and we kneel and we say their name and we talk action items and we're all, you know,
doing our best to be the best allies we possibly can and as Ayanna Presley calls it, accompllices. Um fantastic doing away with the cast system that we live in. Yes.

You're nailing it. Oh, I first of all, I love you and I miss you and I can't wait to hug you in real life very soon. I know. Love you and miss you and I miss you, Twitch. You guys, I was getting tired watching you guys. Like I That was such great dancing. I'm I'm out of breath. I I feel menopausal. I'm out
of breath, too. I think that my stomach just did like a flip-flop turn inside and I'm just I'm just happy to be sitting down At this point. Um absolutely. Take a breather. I just love how like you and I go way way back and um we both have little boys now. Jean's just eight months older than my son Isaac. I know. I really feel like um because I had just gone through it, I was like, "Okay, let me tell you the things that I learned, you know, and I'm sure you've done that for for people
since that." Because you don't get it because at first, you know, when people find out you're pregnant, Like everyone has this look on their face. It's like this dumb look and you're like, "Why is everyone being so weird?" But then you get it. No, you were so nice. First of all, everybody watching, Amy texted me and she was like, "Hey, come over and I'll show you what my nursery looks like." Amy, that was the best advice you could have ever given me because now my nursery literally looks exactly like yours that and not in a
creepy way. Well, the thing Is I needed like, you know, it's so overwhelming. You're like, can I just look at where a baby lives? You know, like can I don't know where a baby's supposed to go. So, it's like, hey, look, it's it's diapers and it's something to suck the snot out of their nose, but it's like you're like, okay, I can imagine, you know, it's good to just see like the setup. It just feels like it's thing I said to you was the nice thing I said to you was um and now you Don't
have to call me, you know, like I was like I'm not going to be like because after you have a baby, I feel like everybody gets really needy and you're trying to heal and people want to come over and then you're like throwing a party, you know? You're like, "Can I get you a drink?" And they're like, "Yeah, like I'd love a martini." And you're like, "Okay, cuz someone just sliced open my baa and ripped a baby out." So, why Don't you go get a teacher? And you know, that was that that and the nursery
were two of the best pieces of advice you could have ever given me. And you also said, oh, you think you're big now, you're about to get even bigger. Just when you think it's not possible. Exactly. And you're like, I have just crossed over into being an actual seal. Then your body doubles itself. So, wait, what's Jean doing right now? You mean like right now? Right now? Well, like what's Jean and He's getting ready for bed right now. All the stuff that he's into right now. Well, he has like he has like the like comedian
confidence, you know, like really he talks in full sense. He doesn't say anything, doesn't say a word, but he talks blah blah blah and and he's motioning to things, but he's not saying any words, but he has so much confidence, you know, comic. I can't wait to have a play date. We Have to do a play date soon. Um, you know, it gets more, everybody says this, but it gets so it gets more and more fun every every day. It's more fun like, you know, we can communicate now. Um, and he kind of just says
yes to everything. Um, you know, like so I can ask him any which is fun to play with, you know. Yeah. Are you playing any fun games? You have any fun games you're playing? We've been actually drinking together a lot lately. So, what have what have you been drinking? What is Jean drinking? Oh. Um, you know, who even knows what he has in that sippy cup at this point. Uh, but no, he um, you know, it's just like I I like to pretend like we're playing a drinking game. I Somebody at told me that you
dug that video. Yeah. You've been on a plane, so you drink. Um, I never got a speeding ticket. You had a speeding ticket. Yeah. Oh, well, I didn't know that. That's when I found out he had a speeding ticket. Got to ask your kids these questions or you don't really get to know them. Yeah, you don't really. So, you didn't learn much. Oh my god. Questions. Yeah. What's Isaac doing? What's he getting into? He's just saying mama, dad, dad, dog, and go. It's dog and go. Everything is dog and go. That's it. And you see
that's what happened. It started With Jean and then we're like, "Oh god, he's about to start saying a million words." And then here we are a full year later and it's still just he like yells at me like a, you know, stereotype of like an Italian house husband. You know, that's I love you. Okay. Oh, wait. Hold on.

So, he's You sent me a video of him Exploring himself in the mirror, which Wait, that doesn't sound good. I know. That's not good. You're right. Doesn't sound good. You're right. He was just looking at himself in the mirror. That's right. That's right. He He had on a baseball hat that had a train on it. Mhm. And I just kind of found him looking at himself in the mirror and he just gave
himself a thumbs up. It's adorable. It was so good. I was just Oh, if we can just harness that confidence And that self-love, you know. I know. It's precious. And how is your husband doing? He's great. Chris, right? Yes. He so no I mean I really did find the best partner ever and I know Chelsea Handler's friend of yours also she's one of my many friends who will say to me like make sure I know how amazing Chris is. I'm like I got it you know they're like this is it AIM. I'm like I know
I hear you. I know I'm I need him. Um but He he's actually diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. And what happens when you get diagnosed with autism is it's like it's like getting a superpower. Like all of his behavior is kind of excused now, you know? So like if somebody's telling a long boring story, he will straight up just walk away. He'll just wander away and then I'm just still stuck there like it's incredible. But he's and and people don't know much about autism, you Know. Um, they just are like, "Oh, does he love to
count?" You know, "Should we drop a bunch of straws on the floor and he could count them?" And I'm like, "Actually, do it. Who cares? I'll probably love it. Do it. Go for it." You know, but uh, no, he's like the greatest partner. But he was just diagnosed just recently. A couple years ago. Yeah. After we were married. But he knew Obviously that he was because the spectrum is the spectrum, right? Every everybody is on the spectrum. It just depends on what that where you are on it. But that's amazing that he was just recently
diagnosed. Yeah. Yeah. We just did like an online test and said, you know, if you're interested in learning more about your brain, cool. If not, cool. But he's like, "Yeah, I'd like to find out." And and it's really given us so many helpful tools. Um and and him, You know, for I think it's a good thing for people to to check it out and get tested just because you so you don't spend your whole life feeling like you're bad or wrong. Exactly. I think there's just and and I think certain behaviors uh are beautiful. I
think they're just honest. My favorite people are on the spectrum. Yes. And I feel like it's a it's there are aspects of uh the personality that are just sometimes really really different and and they Upset. No, but they upset people and it's like no, they just have different brain chemistry and they're incredible incredible people and they love to count. Well, but the only thing is that it is we're we're married four years now and it is hard to have sex, you know, with when you're married. It's it's hard to have sex when you're married, okay?
Because like like that's your family. You know what I mean? Like like that's my emergency contact, you know? I'm not going to just have sex with him, you know? That's disgusting. Yeah. Um, and you can't really talk dirty anymore if you're if you're married because he he knows me too well. You know, I can't be like, I'm gonna He's like, no, you're not. Your back hurts. You're not.
