Summary
#915. REPEAT OUR GREATEST HIT EPISODES:
Chelsea. Freaking. Handler. The legendary comedian, best-selling author, and unapologetic queen of telling it like it is joins the pod, and NOTHING is off-limits. Chelsea gets real about turning 50 (and why she finally has the body she wanted at 20), what led her to write this new book and why men have never been the center of her story. She spills on sexting a certain governor, how stacking small wins (and rejections) led to her break in comedy, and her love of… well, you’ll have to listen. Plus, her brutally honest thoughts on cancel culture, the biggest “oops” moment of her career, and why she refuses to fit into society’s mold of what a woman should be. Get a copy of Chelsea’s new book, I’ll Have What She’s Having, available now at chelseahandler.com/book. This one is hilarious, raw, and SO Chelsea. Buckle up!

I find it to be a real buzzkill. You know, like I have to doctor my water up with so many electrolytes. And then at that point, I'm like, can't I just snort the electrolytes? If I'm just looking for the electrolytes, why do I even have to put them in the water? That's a good point. Like, do they work if you put them in ginger ale? Because I would rather do that. I've never tried. But I will say yesterday at the airport, I went to put electrolytes in water, not realizing it was fizzy water. And it exploded on the counter. and there's a huge line behind me and everyone was annoyed. Yeah. I have elementi, you know, those cans. Yes. So those are carbonated. Those are good. And they're electrolytes. So it's like all of my favorite things colliding. Like carbonated water with electrolytes. Yes. I love those. And it's so salty too and they're delicious. Yeah, yeah. Very salty. Which is perfect because they're a sponsor on this podcast. So I'm so glad we said that. Okay. Tell me about this book. You're releasing it on your 50th birthday. Yes. It's my gift to the world for my birthday. Happy birthday to all of us, not just two. Yes. Yes. That's what I was, I was informed that it was going to be released on my 50th birthday. |
