Hi, everyone. I'm Andy Richter and this is the three questions and I'm going to pose those three questions to one of my favorite people in the world today.

0:23.0

I, she was a coworker, a, a, a troublemaker, a co troublemaker. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We, in fact, at one point, I believe we were separated. We were.

0:37.0

There were monologue meanings and you and I got separated. You had to go sit on the other side of the room. Like kids, they separated us because we were too chatty. Yeah. Yes.

0:46.0

I mean, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you, but I just needed to make sure you knew that you're also one of my favorite people. Oh, thank you so much. I appreciate it. I assumed because I'm very arrogant.

0:58.0

But, you know, I mean, I also know it's also I have a dim view of most humanity. So it's like it's not hard to be great in a world full of schmucks. No, no, it sucks out there.

1:10.0

But it's sauna, Moufcessian. Yeah. I could just say, you know, I could just say sauna. You like another famous Armenian could be just go by one name. Don't you dare compare me to share. Are you comparing you to share? No, to share.

1:25.0

Oh, my, my mom, share is my mother. What? I never knew that. Yeah. She, so we, I went to her show with my mom with my best friend and her mom.

1:35.0

And the whole time we were watching it, my, my friend and I Veronica she and she and I were like, how old were you?

1:42.0

This was like a few years ago. Yeah. But we were there. We were like, she's our mom now. Like these other women don't exist. It's all about this 70 what, two 73 year old woman.

1:55.0

And being on stage, I love her so much. She's my mom. Was it in Las Vegas? It was. And you know what? You can tell my mom doesn't go to too many concerts. Andy, it she like, there's a section of the show where there was like six

2:09.0

bare chested oily men just doing a dance. And I just in my peripheral vision, I saw my mom and she was like clutching her chest going like, oh my God. Oh my God.

2:22.0

Like she was shocked or was she turned on? I think it was both. But she just doesn't go out much. And then after the show, she was like that part where those men danced was just so good. I was like, oh, was it really?

2:36.0

She's gonna go out much. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm dancing oily like that everywhere. Yeah. Yeah. Starbucks. You'll see that. You know.

2:46.0

But did she, does she talk much about being Armenian chair or is she just, she's just embraced by Armenians because she's Armenian.

3:24.0

3:34.0

Kim is also involved, I think. And then share did go to Armenia once. So that was that we have that. But in terms of very Armenian. I mean, I can't. I think that's it. I think you got it all. I think the Kardashians system of a down and share. And we we captured it all.

3:56.0

Now you grew up in kind of the Glendale area, right? So in kind of. Oh, dare you. Oh my god. Glendale area. You just assumed. Glendale because I'm. No, I'm from Montabello.
