| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody, welcome back to How Come. I hope you're having a great Labor Day weekend. If you're in the US, |
| 0:06.1 | woohoo, Labor Day. If you're not in the US, woohoo, life. I hope you're having a nice day. I've mostly been staying inside |
| 0:13.6 | and just looking at TikTok, scrolling through Cedric Degree and Draco Malfoy POVs. If you don't know what that is, |
| 0:20.6 | oh, I don't even know if I want to get you, but basically it's like all these girls are making |
| 0:26.0 | videos as if they're dating or just were asked out by or got caught hooking up with Draco or Cedric |
| 0:35.9 | or Harry or Ron or anybody in the fucking Harry Potter Twilight universe. And I will say they're |
| 0:42.6 | pretty horny. I'm, I made one of my own, but there's a twist at the end. And also before you're like, |
| 0:50.9 | oh my god, Remy, these are children. They're the same ages me. I grew up with them. I'm allowed to |
| 0:56.8 | still love fucking Cedric and Draco. Shout out to Robert Pattinson, who has COVID. I love you. I'm so |
| 1:03.9 | sorry to hear. And yeah, this week our episode comes from LA. I came to LA and I'm like, thinking |
| 1:15.6 | I'm like, did I fucking give Robert Pattinson COVID? Like I didn't want to, I'm here for a thing. |
| 1:21.7 | I don't want to talk about the things. I don't want to jinx it. I'm super, super stitious, but please |
| 1:25.4 | know it was, I guess, worth it to me to risk getting sick. And I'm not sick, which is good. LA also has |
| 1:37.2 | free and like very quick Corona testing. If you go to LA.curativeank.com, you can just go get a test. |
| 1:48.5 | So during this episode, I was staying with our guests Sarah Offkami, who is a screenwriter and |
| 1:56.0 | stand-up comedian who just wrapped on a Lionsgate project called The Look, which will be airing on |
| 2:01.4 | Star someday soon. Sarah is also developing a couple of projects that they're very excited about |
| 2:08.0 | and won't let us mention on air as you do. You're just going to love this episode. |
| 2:32.4 | I am so excited to introduce you to my friend, comedian Sarah Offkami. Thank you. Sarah, or should I call you Mendy? |
| 2:41.7 | Mendy is my alter ego name. Okay. Short for Mendel. Okay. So I'm staying with Sarah Mendy. |
| 2:50.8 | Sarah slash Mendy in LA. We cannot tell you why. Just know it is something that I deem worth |
| 3:01.1 | traveling for during Corona. And we don't want to jinx it. And hopefully it happens. |
