Hello, everyone. It is me, Sam, and I am going on tour this summer.

I'm doing my hour of incredible stand-up comedy, and I would love, love, love to see you there.

Philly, and maybe a couple more. But if you are in any of those places, please, please, please get

tickets. I would love to see you all there. And I'm really, really excited because I love touring now.

So see you there.

Okay, enjoy the app.

Podcast starts now.

What is up, everyone?

You are listening to Stradio Lab live in New York City roughly four weeks ago.

Yeah, it's not quite live.

I brought my chronic illness allyship sleep mask.

Caleb, you can open your eyes.

Oh. You brought your famsick merch. I brought my chronic illness allyship sleep mask, courtesy of the whole team at Lena Dunham HQ. Now what makes it chronic illness allyship? Because she's a big, well, a big part of the book. I don't know if you've read it. I've not read it. She's a huge figure in our industry. We've both finished it. I've not finished it. Okay, well, I've finished it. And I actually have it in an audio and also in print form. Thank you. And so I think the theme of the theme of the press. Oh, she's sleepy. She's sleepy. Oh, my goodness. And she's sleepy both in a kind of empowering way and in a chronic illness way, and the tension of that drives a big part of the book. And so you can kind of always put on your silk famesick mask and kind of relax. Are you getting paid to behave this way, or is this just something that you thought would be fun to do? Thank you for pointing out this, it's non-normative. Yeah. Well, I think, I believe I was sent this because there was a clip of our podcast where I said, Adam Driver doesn't think Lena Dunham enough. And I think that was put into some sort of Google Drive. And they said, he's getting a mask. Yeah. And I'm not joking. Send him a fucking mask. Yeah. It's just a bit odd that they didn't send me one as well. Well, I was one who actually said that particular comment. Well, I did add to it. I added some comedic elements, of course.

That's true.

People don't respect. People rarely respect comedy for comedy's sake. You know, they want you to like make a distinct point. I was kind of going Hannah Gatsby mode and just sort of talking. Yeah. Which is beautiful, by the way. Which is of course beautiful. And celebrated. I do want to say. I was certainly a celebrated.

I was 45 minutes early to this recording.

That's right.
