0:19Damn it. I was going to say I feel really stupid being Conan O 'Brien's friend. I won't. I will change mine. The nicer part of me. No. Hi, I'm Christina Applegate, and I feel awesome to be Conan O 'Brien's friend.
0:55Hey, everybody. It's Conan O 'Brien Needs a Friend. I'm Conan O 'Brien. Sona laughing really hard. Oh, God. Matt Gorley joining us as well. And we might as well just talk about this because I just said it. Sona, should you recount what happened? Oh my, I don't even know if I can, like, say, give it justice because I was talking about something and you were talking about something and you were talking, we were talking about Ralph Fiennes and how much we love Ralph Fiennes and how good he is. And then you were going on for a while about how great Ralph Fiennes is. And I said, well, I'm not, I'm not talking right now.
1:28So this is boring. Yeah. Meaning there's words are happening, but they're not coming from me. So this is boring. Let's get started. Yeah. And you were laughing really hard because it might be the truest thing I've ever said. You're just like, I'm not talking. So, you know, like you completely checked out because it's not coming out of your mouth. You know what happened? There was this moment where I noticed that the words weren't coming out of my skull. So what good could they be? Right. I mean, what could their value possibly be? Right. I mean, it's unheard of that anything I would say would have any.
2:08Again, it's happening. Yeah. I'm like, what is this? I'm hearing like, it's like Charlie Brown characters hearing their parents. You don't even hear words coming out of my mouth? Like when I'm talking? I'm just counting down. It's like, when do I get to go? Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I'm just not even going to speak. You should. Did you? I just heard croaking over there. Sounds like there's a toad. I will say this. Just a teaser for the segment in this episode. we have some Ralph Fiennes related content to cover oh good we'll get to that later in the episode and that was I didn't know that that was happening no that's just a coincidence yeah let's get some Ralph Fiennes content you were talking about how he's he's still got it and he can he's still got I said he's still got it and he can he can get it he can get it I don't know is that a saying he can get it he can get it yeah he can get this he can get this you're married yeah I know I'm not gonna fuck Ralph Fiennes I mean it's not gonna to happen.
3:04I shouldn't have said it so I'm not going to make love to him. Which would it be? Make love to him. If you said he's still got it and he can get it, then you're not talking about making love. Oh, Wraith. Pretty come to yon window and let us embrace. Do be gentle. Do be gentle, Wraith. He would be. If there was any chance of him coming on, I think I just killed it, right? Maybe if anything, maybe the odds are better. Yeah. You just said he's got it and he can get it. You just rang the dinner bell. Yeah. Ring a ding ding. And Ray fights for what it's worth. Same here, buddy. That killed it. That killed it.
3:43No, no, that killed it. You don't know. Yeah. You'd be gentle. I would be gentle. He's a terrific actor. He's great in everything he's ever done. And I was just remarking that it's hilarious that he always, I mean, it's not hilarious, but when I hosted the Oscars recently, he was in the audience and it was like his, you know, fifth time being nominated. And he he's clearly the best actor in the room. Yeah. He's an amazing actor. And he'll probably never get an Academy Award. I shouldn't say that. I hope he does. I hope he does. These amazing actors come over from from the UK and they're insanely incredible.
4:19And, you know, they don't win. And they're they're all like, well, you know, still, I enjoyed my visit. Ta ta. and is Sona around yeah is Sona around I'm told she thinks I have it and I could still get it I think it's because they're not you know they don't do enough like he needs to like hook up with like you know Selena Gomez what? yeah yeah it's like something needs to happen Selena Gomez is with Benny Blanco I know I can't I'm sorry I'm bringing this back again you really are you just want to talk about Benny Blanco any chance you can get. I, the other day I was driving around and we brought this up on the podcast, but I just want to repeat it.
5:01The most modern sentence that I can think of to say is, Benny Blanco's just slid into my DMs. Yeah. Because I don't know what that means. Any of it. Any of it. I don't know what any of it is, but I've memorized it in case I'm ever at a party. Oh, okay. And someone's questioning, hey man, you seem kind of old. Maybe you should move on. I'm going to say, yeah, well, Benny Blanco just slid into my DMs. And then that person says, really? I'm Benny Blanco. Yeah. And I'll say, well, I'm here in person. And if you've got something to say to me, say it face to face. Let's say it face to face, Benny B.
5:36If that's even your real name. What? What? Say it. I love that you're talking about Benny Blanco sliding into your DMs while you're talking to Benny Blanco. That just made me laugh. And also, I love it. That really made me laugh. I love it's proof at my age that I'm young. Yeah. I believe you've still got, is your Hailey Beaver smoothie over there? Nope, it's not. I threw it out. I was done with it. I love that I'm trying to, I love anything where someone's like, hey, man, you shouldn't be hanging out at this party. You're too old. And that I think that me shouting at that moment, Benny Blanco just slid into my DMs.
6:10Everyone would be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. He's young. Oh, yeah, yeah. Guys, he's cool. He's cool. Let's disregard his rotting face. Someone would be rude enough to just be like Hey, old guy, why are you at this party? Let's try this out, okay? Okay, go ahead Hey, what's up, Granddad? How'd you get in here? What do you mean, how did I get in here? I'm a youngster Benny Blanco just slid into my DMs Youngster What? What are you talking about? Do you even know what a DM is? It's the demilitarized zone that separates South Korea from North Korea Hey, this guy's cool, he can stay It was established by the United Nations at the end of the Korean conflict.
6:52Oh, right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I've actually been there. I visited the demilitarized zone. And Benny Blanco was one of the great architects of the late 19th century. Hey, guys, gather around. I'm hearing some crazy whack history stories. This guy's off the hook. Yeah. All the women are undressing. Yes. Yeah. That's right. I have the riz. Oh, see, you really got it. Okay, I'm going to write the rap. You just shouldn't go to those parties. If someone invites you, just don't go. You're busy. I wouldn't be at those parties. They would find me peering in a window and they would call the police. I mean, who knows?
7:26You could be. You could go to a party where Benny Blanco and Selena are. I would know Selena. I would not know Benny Blanco. Yeah. And I have nothing against Benny Blanco. He's, you know, I think Selena Gomez is cool. I love her. And I'm all for this Benny Blanco gentleman. And I just came up with that sentence when I was driving my car. Benny Blanco just slid into my DMs. And I said, that's going to get me out of a sticky situation someday or get me into one. I don't know. All right, let's get into it. Enough of my bibble and babble. I think there's been enough. Tomfoolery and Skullduggery. And Tom Thuggery, my guest today, and that's plural guests today, hosts the podcast Messy, which releases new episodes every Tuesday, wherever you get your podcasts.
8:10I'm very excited they're here today.
8:16Christina Applegate and Jamie Lynn Sigler, welcome.
8:23Cone bone. Cone bone. Cone bone. Never stuck. No, it did. My wife calls me cone bone. No, because Tom Hanks came around and did co-coo, co-coo. Oh, yeah. Yeah, he did. And then that became your thing. I was trying to make cone bone happen. I'm kind of glad Coco won, frankly. Okay. It's never too late. It's never too late. It can still happen. Yeah. I was going to start by, first of all, thanking both of you for being here. And I have very distinct memories of both of you. I'm at that age now where I get very sentimental and I look back over, I don't know, just things that I've done in the past, people I've met.
9:01Christina, I remember very clearly you being such a wonderful friend to me on the show. You came on the show so many times and you were always so funny and great and miraculous. And I think you might hold some record for coming on the show. I think I might. You might. You might. It was like my favorite thing. Anytime I got a call saying, hey, you know, even like you sometimes would have like a guest like fall out or something. They'd be like, will you come in? I'm like, absolutely. I would love nothing more. I really like you were my favorite interview were. Well, you know, it's so much fun there.
9:38That's sweet of you. and it helped that you lived in an apartment right above our studio in Rock Roller Center. She lived in a - We called an apartment. I was outside the bathroom. Actually, it was a cleaning closet. It was a cleaning closet. And there was a cot. Let's be real, Conan. I can't believe Christina Applegate lives in this shitty cleaning room. And you guys charged me rent. Yeah, no. It wasn't a lot of rent, but I just, I wanted to start by thanking you from the bottom of my heart for just always being just this light, always such a great guest, always so fantastic. And I have such a very clear memory, Jimmy Lin.
10:18I remembered when The Sopranos first came out and had been on for one season. It was the new thing. Everyone was talking about it. And it's nominated for all these Emmys. We're nominated too. We're in New York. I go, I get on my American Airlines flight and I sit in this American Airlines flight and then And the person sits down next to me and is James Gandolfini, who I'd never met. And we talked the whole way. And he was just talking about like, yeah, I don't know what this is. He had such a like, what is this? We're going to an award show. And I went, yeah, you're on the biggest show on television, Jim, and you're the star of it.
10:53Anyway, he talked about act. We just had a lovely time. Yeah. And that's so cool. And my memory is they put me up at this hotel. I think it was the Four Seasons Hotel. and I walk out at one point and you're standing there with your co-star, Robert Eiler, and you're just like both standing there and you're kids. I mean, how old would you have been? 17. Yeah, you're just, you're kids and you were standing there right outside where the cars pick people up and you just both looked like you had been beamed to Mars. Like you're here at the Emmys. And I chatted with you guys for a second and remember having this weird look at, oh, this crazy ride is just starting for you.
11:39And I'm getting a sneak peek. And I remembered you just seeming like, I think she's going to be good. She seems like such a grounded, nice kid. I think you're going to be okay. That's so nice to say. Well, I can tell you, like, meeting you was like that. I probably look like I had just been beamed to Mars because that's how we felt seeing you. That's how we always felt, like, seeing people that we admired. And like Christina and actually and I have talked about that you are our favorite show. Oh, that's nice. Because you just you set us up. When we're talking to you, when we're talking to Jimmy Kimmel, that's a whole other conversation.
12:11Yeah, we were lying to Jimmy. I had dinner with you. But I have a distinct memory because my brothers and I bonded over your show. Right. Like the bits in your show, we would talk about it all the time. And the first time I did your show, I was able to get my brother, my oldest brother, Adam, in the front row there. And that was like, you know, it's one of those like I made it moments that you're able to share with the people that were there with you. So that was one of those for me. It's so funny. I have I don't know if it's the Irish in me or whatever, but I get very nostalgic for all of us floating along on this journey.
12:43And then I see these people along the way. And so to get to check in with both of you is very nice. I mean, yes, this is a podcast and we're doing this and there's going to be an ad or something. but I don't fucking care about that. I feel like I'm talking to you guys. I'm checking in. Both of you have been through so much and you're doing a beautiful thing, which is you're sharing it. You're talking about it. Very frankly, you have your own podcast, Messy, and it's all about MS, which you're both dealing with and everything that happens. And I know that you're helping a lot of people, but the strange thing I've found about doing a podcast and I'm not struggling, I'm struggling with just inherent craziness, but, but not MS.
13:33But what I have found is that it's healing for me to talk to people. And, um, I'm, it's, I'm imagine there's a component of doing this podcast where both of you are maybe doing some healing for yourselves about having this problem that you're being able to talk about it openly in this forum is probably helpful to you. Well, absolutely, 100%. I mean, that's how this all came about was when I came out with my diagnosis in 2021, our friend Lance said, you got to talk to Jamie because I'm sure you feel like you're on an island and you don't understand what's happening. And that's the person to talk to.
14:12And I had met Jamie a few times over the years. And it was like we got on the phone and We were on the phone for hours, and I felt like so less alone. Sorry. I get teary when I talk about my dreams. But it healed me in that moment, and that's how this happened. It was like we're talking about so much information and so much stuff that so many people newly diagnosed or even people who have been diagnosed for years might not know about or want to say the things that we say, like the brutal honesty about how painful it can be, how lonely it can feel, how awful it is. and then you know that's only coming from my mouth because i'm negative nelly and then jamie will be like but let's breathe you know and i love you jamie no she gets pissed off about it too here's the interesting thing is it's it's it's not that one way to go is wrong and one is right they're both no no no that's i was totally kidding you know it's like we we have helped each other in the sense that I get to see a different side to all of this because of her.
15:15And she gets to be honest about how she feels sometimes in ways that you didn't, right? I don't want to speak for you about this. Yeah. Because I was noticing that, Jamie Lynn, you got diagnosed much earlier than even I knew. I was familiar with your diagnosis, but then I was shocked to find out that you got your diagnosis when you were on The Sopranos. You were also working on Broadway at the time. And I just assumed that this came, you know, 10 years later because you didn't talk about it. You were afraid to talk about it because you thought you thought you could get fired. Is that right? Yeah, I think there was a lot of reasons.
15:54I think the initial, you know, drive to keep it a secret and protect me was the fear of being fired, the fear of not being hireable, not, you know, the fear of what people would think about this and me with this. I also think it allowed me to live in a state of denial for some time because if I didn't talk about it with anybody, then maybe it wasn't real. But then, you know, over the years, as the disease started to manifest into what it would be for me physically and I started to have to make up excuses and lies, it was really difficult. And as much as I could like regret that choice, I think it's really informed a lot about me and my life.
16:45And, you know, now what's so beautiful, like with Messi and having Christina and what I've learned about myself through this process is, you know, when you find community and when you when you talk to somebody else, you can almost witness yourself a little bit and you can kind of take a step back and really acknowledge what you're going through and acknowledge that it's hard and that it's that it sucks and that it can be unfair and all those things. but also really see the catalyst of it being the catalyst for a lot of growth and self-reflection. And, you know, I've lived with the disease for almost 24 years now.
17:23I was diagnosed when I was 20. And so I'm finding my way through and finding sort of the purpose from this pain. And I feel like, you know, that's all you can do with situations like this. And messy is really what's propelled me into that way of thinking now. I think there's an interesting thing that we live in this, as you know, this weird culture with probably misaligned priorities where, you know, people, if you're a quote celebrity, people expect that you shouldn't have anything to complain about. and that you're allowed to have problems. But sometimes I think you're expected to have problems that are self-destructive problems, like addiction or you blew all your money, you know, you did stupid things.
18:16But I think there's almost like a sense that, well, wait a minute, you can get sick, you can get this disease, but you were on television. I know that sounds like I'm saying something that would be painfully obviously true, but I think there is a little bit of a hiccup where you're both beautiful, talented, you know, actresses that people know from iconic work. You have a, you got sick? What do you mean you got sick? What did you do? No, I didn't do anything. I just, it just happened and it happens to a lot of people. Does that feel that there's a weird way in which it's not fitting the narrative of being a successful, you know, celebrity.
19:03Well, I think one of the things that I've come across, you know, I mean, and I don't really leave the house anymore. And I mean, if people saw what my life was like on the daily, they wouldn't be able to do it because I can sometimes not do it. It's really, really hard. But I think that the first thing that I hear from people is how did you get it? Meaning I must have done something wrong in my life to have this disease. I did it to myself. It's like I had breast cancer as well. So, oh, you must have done something. Yeah. You know? And that stigma is, you know, I'm used to it now, but it was for a while.
19:36Like, it was so hard to swallow because why the F would you think that I would do something to have this? Because this is the worst thing I've ever had in my life. This is the worst thing I've ever gone through. So, I'm going to start crying again. I'm going to cry all you want, and then I'm going to start crying. I'm just having a pissy day today. I'm having a bad MSC day. Oh, I'm sorry. Well, no, but cry. And then I'm going to cry and I'm going to make my assistant David care and you'll cry. I make him cry all the time. Every day. Okay. Every hour. And very verbally abusive. This is what this podcast does to people.
20:12But mine is just like me being really verbally abusive. Yeah, if he doesn't make at least five people cry a day. Yeah, I feel like I haven't done my job. It's a failed day. Yeah.
20:29I'll tell you, I mean, obviously, Christina, where it comes from is it's terrifying to people that shit happens. And so people need to work backwards and say, OK, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Did you eat a lot of food with zinc in it? You know, no, I didn't. Oh, did you did you take like a lot of escalators? Some people can get a message. No, no, no, that's stupid that was on no whatever i'm making shit up clearly but it is it is a you'd be you'd be surprised at the the cures that i get told about like i have this holy water and i know it will cure your ms i'm like really that's amazing because there's millions of us yeah across the globe who still have it right right and have probably you know done this with the holy i mean come on yeah come on well i think that that's that's but that's the part of the fear part of the gift of the position I think that we have that it's, you know, taken me a long time to accept.
21:28I think, you know, acceptance is hard for anyone, no matter what you're dealing with. I think it's like a huge challenge in your life to accept that a situation is what it is. But I, but what I'm looking now as an opportunity is what I thought would sort of bring me out of this business. And I, and even when I was out about having MS and working, and it was always people very helpful, like, oh, we'll just walk around it or we'll get you a walking double when the person walks away, you know, so you look able bodied and normal. You know, now it's at this point where I'm like, no, if you want to cast me in this, this is the body I'm in because my life doesn't revolve around MS.
22:07If anything, it could enrich a story. And I think that we don't see enough people like us on camera. We don't see enough people that have disabilities that are not defined by their disability within a story a lot of the time. And so, you know, I think that we do have a position and a power now to really try and change the perception around that celebrities can get sick, but that you can also keep like doing what you love and keep living your life. You know, I think that it's it's very scary for people. And, yeah, you can feel like, you know, people are superhuman when they're a celebrity. But no, we're just human beings that are doing what we love.
22:54It just happens to be in front of a lot of people. Right. Right. And now we can use that power for something else. It's weird. It's an occupational hazard. I always think it's an occupation like working in a shoe store or anything else. It just has this other side to it, which is people recognize you. They recognize you from working in a shoe store. That's how Jim Gandolfini felt. I'm sure he told you that on that plane. Yeah, I mean, he's like, why don't you want my plumber's autograph? Like, it just didn't make sense to him why he had to have that piece of this, you know? Right, right. I can completely understand that.
23:25One question that came to me is, and this is for both of you, and maybe I'll start with you, Christine, is when did you, what's the first symptom or when did you start to think something feels off? Is it subtle or does it hit you like a ton of bricks? It was January 2021. 21. My mom had just been diagnosed with cancer for the third time. And there was some other stuff going on in my life. And it was it was a really stressful, traumatic time. And my toes started to feel numb. Just my toes, you know, like a little bit. I was still hiking. I was still playing tennis. I was still doing all the things I could do.
23:58But my toes weren't feeling right. And eventually over those months, it grew from my toes to my ankles to from my knees down is a whole other ball game yeah yeah and um i was losing balance and i but at the pain was extraordinary and when i say numb you it's numb but it hurts yeah so it was like these like very subtle things that happened and finally someone was like well it was actually selma blair said can you please go to the neurologist yeah and i was like no there's i was like there's no way that the both of us from the same movie of MS. I was like, you crazy. And it was like, that was the end of it for, you know.
24:42And by then I had gotten so bad and I was in the middle of shooting Dead to Me. So we had to really stop for a minute and figure out how to do this. But what's interesting is I look back over time and probably for like six years, I was having weird things happening. Like fluorescent lights would bother me and make me dizzy. and being up on a platform, I would get afraid of the height. I was never afraid of heights. I'd be playing tennis and, like, my right leg would buckle and I'd be like, ooh, I must be dehydrated or it's too hot out here. I mean, there were, like, the tiniest little things that you would completely ignore otherwise because there's probably an answer for all of them.

25:22But the numbness in my toes and as it started to grow up was very much announced in my fingers. And it just, it starts to, you know, over time, it gets worse, you know, but it's, that's how it happened. And when you say, like, you've referenced, I think, twice now that you're having a really bad day, what does that mean? You're having a really bad MS day. How does that manifest itself? Is it in the physical? Is it dealing with it? It's the physical, and that affects you also emotionally, too, I imagine. Well, yeah. I mean, you know, to go to the bathroom, it's like walking on needles and hot lava.
26:02So like I haven't really been able to get out of my bed today. So I'm having just a bad symptomatic day. And that can be, you know, from anything from and I always get scared that this is now my new normal and I get afraid that this is the new normal. And then I'll have a day where I'm never good. I'm just less shitty. yeah so those less shitty days i'm like okay so that was just a symptomatic day it was like either i didn't sleep enough or i didn't eat enough or i'm stressed out a lot of times stress or you know anything like that really affects it can make it much worse but there isn't a day where i'm like skipping down you know skipped maloo down the street although i try sometimes right jamie i'll send you videos i'm like i'm trying to skip i'm skipping today yeah exactly and then And like the next 10 minutes later, I'm like, I can't move a thing.
26:53I can't move. Or else she doesn't have MS. There's TMZ footage of her skipping down the lane. Singing, skip to Malou. She's making it up. This is bullshit. Damn, I'm a good actress if I'm making this one up. Applegate is so full of shit. Always was. I would much probably get an Oscar for having Tourette's than I would. And I'm not making fun of Trez because I love Balin out loud. I don't know if you guys have seen it, but she's beautiful and I want to be her best friend. But yeah, for the cussing. But also I was I've noticed that you've always had and I love that you get to do it on Dead to Me.
27:35You get to say some of the meanest things on Dead to Me. and you do it where it's like, yes, you're a really good actress, but I can also tell that you're accessing some part of you that wants to tell somebody he's a fuck stick. Yes, I don't know how Liz Feldman knew that I existed on the planet. Like, she wrote it, it was already there. And then she was like, oh my God, this is you. And I'm like, sadly, yes, sadly. How did you know I had a filthy mouth and a lot of rage? The best acting job I've ever done is being Christina Applegate out in the public. That is my greatest average. That's your Oscar.
28:15Smart, funny. Yeah, yeah. Everything's good. Cheery. Yeah. And then I'm home and I'm like, fuck this shit. That's what podcasts are for. That's right. And Jamie Lynn, when did you know that what happened? How was it for you? Is it the same? Does it start with like tingling in the toes or? Yeah. Yeah, that was actually pretty similar for me. When I was 19, I had something similar like weird numbness in my toes, and then it was rising over a couple of days. And it was actually right before we were starting the third season. And I ended up in the emergency room and then the ICU for 14 days. Nobody could figure out what I had.
28:54They had ruled out MS at the time because there was no findings on MRIs or whatever. And I got diagnosed with Lyme's disease, actually, initially. And they had had me in a bunch of steroids and antibiotics. And in hindsight, I think the steroids is what like picked me up out of it. But a year and a half after that, started to get that numbness again and went to the I was in the middle of the fourth season and I started to feel the numbness. I thought I was just going to kind of ask for more antibiotics. And they redid testing and diagnosed me with MS. So it was shocking and not at all what I was expecting to hear.
29:30And to hear it, I mean, at that age, you've got to just be, I don't know, felt like you got hit by a meteor, like you're standing in a cornfield and a meteor hit you. Like it's it's it doesn't make any weird. I can like I can remember sitting in the hospital room and my parents were there and I had two friends, too. And the doctor was talking after he said it became kind of like like in a movie where all of the talking just starts sounding like muffled and like the room kind of gets dizzy. and I just kind of blocked it out. We went home. I spoke to my family about it. I went to a doctor's appointment for like a checkup for the show.
30:10Like you have to get like a sign off that you're healthy. And I told him and he told me I wouldn't repeat that again. And so that's what I did. I just kept it quiet. I didn't know that part. Yeah, I mean, he was trying to protect me and I understood, you know. It's a hard one to hold in though, babe. Especially when you are the best at teaching me to advocate for myself and to have boundaries on set and to say, hey, this is what I need. You gave me that power. And for you to have to go every day and take that inside. Pretend this isn't even happening. No, I can't even. And feel like you can't talk about it.
30:46It makes me want a sad face. Well, it's interesting because we have all these fears. There's a terror. It's not just in our culture. It's in many cultures. But particularly we have a terror of people who maybe we've idolized or put up on a pedestal in any way being sick. The same way we do, there's this whole attitude about people getting older. And that's something where people are constantly feeling that they need to scrub how old they are or do things or go through ridiculous procedures to make sure that nobody thinks that they're the age they are. It's another kind of let's just pretend that this doesn't happen to people.
31:35And I've taken the very bold move of having no work done. And I think. So brave. So brave. So brave. Thank you. So brave. Well, I think of the three of us, I'm the brave one. You are. Okay. And in a way. You're the hero. You're the hero, Conan. Maybe the one who's been through the most. Maybe I'm going out on a limb here, and I'm told I don't have the best sense of the room. Yeah. But I'm just letting it go. As a 44-year-old man, I'm just letting it happen. No one is fact-checking this. No, there's no internet. That never was and never will be. So how did you, you guys started talking together.
32:19And at one point, because it's such, you know, there's a lot of new technology and new kind of types of broadcasting and reaching out to people that can feel invasive and lame. But I do think that podcasting is particularly well-suited to what the two of you were talking about because it's so intimate and people can really hear what both of you are going through. It's a great thing that this medium exists right now for what you're doing and for the message that you're trying to get out. And not even that it's a message, it's conversations that both of you are having that feel very confessional and that feel like there's no topic.
33:01You're not working through, okay, we're gonna get to this, then we're gonna get to this, then we're gonna get to this. It very much feels like you two are hanging out and there are good days and bad days. Yeah, I was going to say, well, we never really have a plan. I mean, obviously, when we have a guest, we, you know, most of the time there's someone that we know quite well. Right. So that's easy to just talk with them. We don't have a list of questions, really. I mean, you know, there's if we start to go off the rails, our our producer will text like, hey, let's texting. She starts texting and going like, bring it back to something, to like a subject.
33:37But I was going to say that with the podcast, it wasn't like Jamie and I were like, how can we go around talking about this? I mean, it was, I was actually getting my infusion for my MS and Jenna Fisher from the office, who's a good friend of mine. She came to hang with me for the six hours that it takes. And she's like, and she knows my humor and the way I talk. She's like, you've got to do a podcast, man. And then it was like, after that, Jamie and I started talking. I was like, oh, my God, this is like our lives, and I feel so much better every time I'm talking. Sorry about that. That's my phone telling me to put my feet in the hot bath with Epsom salts.
34:12Your phone tells you to do that? Yeah, well, it does. It knows that I'm in pain, and I need to do it. I have an alarm. I have an alarm for 1.30. This is going to lead into an ad for Nokia. What is your phone telling you to do?
34:27My phone tells me to stop going on that site. It's creepy. I'm like, what's creepy about it? That's the thing. It really came from our conversations. We always wanted to be honest and raw and real and not have a plan. Because sometimes the best plan is to have no plan. And then other times, I'm just told to be quiet and to stop talking so much by our producer. Yep. Not by me. Not by you. But also, too, you know, MS looks different for everybody. It affects everybody differently, whether it's day to day or just, you know, body to body. And I think it's about, you know, giving yourself the grace and the space to express what you need to feel in the ups and downs of it.
35:10And also to, you know, not a lot of people know a lot about MS. It's also educate. But in general, I think, and we have learned that the more specific you get with your vulnerability, the more universal it becomes for other people. So, you know, we get to hear from a lot of other people that listen to us that don't just have MS, that, you know, hear what we're going through and hear what we're we're trying to push through and accept and all those things through their own filter and how they sort of apply it to their lives. And so, you know, over the past year, it's really been an exercise in Christina and I getting to know each other and sharing a lot about our lives.
35:52And I feel like now it's not fully transitioned, but we've opened ourselves up now to having a lot of people really try to help us, help us individually and where we're at. And, you know, it's we're we're still here and we we have children and dreams and lives and friends and people that we care about. And we're trying to figure out how to, you know, make it the best we can. It's also and that's important to point out. It's not I think one of the reasons it's such a great idea is that it's not, hey, if you've got MS, you should check out messy. That's not at all what it's about. Sure. If you do, then yes.
36:33But it really is about people struggling and actually people that you know, people that I mean, for both of you, there are a lot of people that grew up watching you and have an emotional connection with you. and that's something that's very powerful. That gives you this gift of, oh, they know you. They know you and you are part of their lives. You're part of a part of their life that they're only gonna be that old once and you were a big part of their life then. And so now they're getting the gift of perspective of whatever that means. Everyone has stuff in their life, but I'm constantly, you know, we just had these fires out here in LA And I'm, you know, so I'm living in a hotel and people will say to me, oh, I'm so sorry.
37:21And I cut them off and I'm like, I'm living in a hotel. I know a lot of people who lost their homes. Like I, so I don't have, I have been inconvenienced, but it's stupid. I feel stupid when anyone says anything to me because I know many people who work here, two people that work here lost their homes. and a lot of my writer friends on The Simpsons lost their homes and a lot of people in and around my neighborhood lost their home. And so I did not. I'm in a hotel. And so my complaint is they don't make the smoothie quite the way I like it. It's not the way I would do it if I was at home. What's wrong with the world?
38:08Why does God hate me? God, why have you - You need to come on messy and talk about it. Yes. Talk to you about whatever you want. Well, first of all, before we go any further, Yeah. Ladies, I'm here to talk about, there's this guy at this high-end hotel, Beverly Hills, who, but no, I think that perspective is not something you get and then you have. Like someone gives you a gold pocket watch and you have it in your pocket the rest of your life. I always think it's like stomach crunches or any kind of, you just, you know, unfortunately, you've got to keep doing it or stretching or, you know, any of the rehab or anything of the exercises that you need to do or self-care you need to do, you have to keep at it.
38:55I think that's way about perspective. We just have to keep at it because yes, I am this, but these other people are going through that. And it's always the yin and the yang. It's always going to be that. And so I think the fact that the two of you are sharing this and you know christina when you were saying earlier oh i'm sorry i'm getting weepy i'm having a bad day the whole point is to tell us that and to let it happen yeah yeah i mean we've we've covered so many topics too i mean it's not like if we just sat there and talked about ms all day we'd be like or probably not i'd just be crying the whole time right we've had episodes about eating disorders and and bitches you know like just well wait a minute let's talk about bitches in life.
39:40For a second. Let me, now you've got my, I mean, I was really liking this, but now it's another level. She knows that I get pissed off when I lay back when we're recording and I go like this. Like my fire, my anger inside of myself talking about bitches. Just people who are just bitches. I don't know. Just bitches. Just awful humans. Bitches is all genders, right? It's everybody. Of course. Like, you know, So it includes me is what you're saying. You know. You're my biggest bitch ever. I knew I'd make it. You are my favorite bitch. I made it to the top.
40:23I haven't even told Jamie because Jamie and I are probably going to record next week because, you know, whatever. And I have so much to tell you about some bitches. I can't wait. Mama got vicious in the text messages. Do you drop names? You don't drop names. I don't. No, no, no. I think we should. I mean, why not? Well, you know what we have had, though, is a lot of past co-stars. We had Ed O 'Neill. We had Edie Falco. And it was really interesting and wonderful to have these conversations with people that knew us when we were kids. You know, in our formative years and really get their perspective of us.
41:03and for also to like have a conversation like with Edie where she forever felt like a mother figure to me because of the way we met. But now to have a conversation as two women, you know, and peers in a way, it's been really beautiful to be able to like have these deep personal conversations on the podcast with people that are important to us that also people like relate to us, but to get to see a different side of it. Yes. It's interesting to me, too, you know, from my lens of, you know, Christina, those times that you would come on or Jamie Lynn, the times you would come on. I would see you in this very, I love that format, but it was, you know, you know, from the Sopranos, you know, from Mary, from children.
41:53Christina, she went, hey, what's going on? And it's this, it's. I could listen to you do that all day. I know. I know, me too. I know, I know, but I swear to God, it's, it's, it was 30 years of my life and it's in my head where I'll be brushing my teeth and I'll be like, all right, we're back. I'm using Crest toothpaste because it gets it white, you know, but I guess it's still a conversation and I was still getting to know you and you are these, you know, much younger than me and, and, and now I'm checking in on you in this very different way and it's nice. It feels really nice to speak to both of you.
42:35And I'm sorry that you got both of you got hit with this sack of shit because that's what it is for no reason. I'm really sorry about that. And it's I pooped myself yesterday. So that goes in goes on brand with me too. I'm just saying, but I'm saying it's very nice. I'm grateful for this medium that allows us to talk this way. and check in and people, you know, a lot of people can hear it and hear how you're doing and hear about your podcast, which, and it's just, I'm very grateful that we get to do this, you know? Me too. Thank you. I've been, this, my favorite moments, honestly, Conan, when I would come on there for like the 30th time or whatever, was when we'd go to commercial and you and I would just talk.
43:26Yeah. It was like, it was like the best thing ever. The show was over, you know, The pre-interview, we did our bits. I did my stories. And you and I would just sit and talk during that two and two, Chuck Bullery. Yeah. And I remember in the commercial break trying to do that with Jamie Lynn. And she said, this interview's over. Yeah, usually. That's so Jamie. She said, this interview's over. And then she said, my people. And seven people came and took her away. And one of them hit me. That's exactly what would happen. That is not what happened. Well, I was actually going to say I've just never felt very good at like that side of this business.
44:03It's just always felt like I don't know. It just it it would bring out insecurities and things in me that weren't great. However, doing your show, and I mean this with every part of me, there was never an ounce of nerves. Maybe the first time because I was such a fan, but it was just you always brought ease and enjoyment. I would leave on a high and so happy. Like I just had the best, you know, 20 minutes of my life. So thank you. You would get 20 minutes? I'd get like 8 to 12. I was counting commercial breaks. Christina would get like 5 at the most. That's why she kept coming back. I knew if I was cruel to you, Christina, you'd keep coming back and you did.
44:51Of course. Yes. Well, I did. That's why I got that cleaning closet. But I was going to say what was so awesome is that you you listened. Yeah. Yeah. We sometimes wouldn't even get to the questions, man, because you you were like one of the only ones who listened, who didn't have like a vacant look on their face waiting for the next. Like, get to the part that you're supposed to say. And let's get to the next question. You would listen. And so you and I would just did feel like real and loose. And it wasn't a show. I love you. You know that I've always absolutely adored you. Well, I am. I mean, I was coming in today.
45:25I knew I'd be talking to both of you. And I was thinking I really want to check in with them because I care about these people. And I'm invested in them because I have this avuncular like, you know, well, I knew them when they were these young ladies. that used to come by and I would make a cookie for them and talk to them. And, you know, and I want to see how they're doing. And I I'm so again, I'd do anything in the world if I could change this reality for both of you. And I can't. But anything I can do to raise awareness, to do anything. I mean, my my father was a scientist who devoted his life to trying to find ways to make people better and my hope is that uh science will find ways um and anything we can do i mean anything i can do to help both of you uh and i'd also like to come on your podcast you know we would we would love it seriously but here's well i didn't think conan was gonna make me cry today but here's the thing i want to talk about my fee oh it's a hundred thousand dollars and it's gotta to be in it's cash in a suitcase or I fucking more than I've even made doing the podcast.
46:44Well, listen, sister. OK, I'm just time for me to get tough with you, too. All right. OK, you know, I'm not going to soften up because of this whole MS thing. I get top dollar. You're the next bitch they're going to talk about. This bitch wants one hundred thousand dollars to come on. And no, David is right here. And David's the one that does the schedule. He's in charge of my life. But I would love to come on and talk to you on your podcast. Thank you. And do, you know, I consider us friends and I would like to help. So let me know what I can do. And I'm just saying that because this is once this is over, I'm not going to do anything.
47:27You know that. Of course. But this is the image you need to put on. It's been recorded. This is what's called performative. You know, this is me. Is the paparazzi here? And they get a picture of me going to the hospital to visit, you know, the people. And then I go out the back and I shop for a Rolex. There you go. Yeah. Real Hollywood secrets here. I like it. No, I really want to come do yours. And really, I really want to get into the bitches thing. Oh, yeah. Yeah, maybe we should save the bitch conversation for when Conan comes on. That's so bad. You guys, it's so bad. It's almost like this particular thing that happened this week is like, I don't even know if I can even talk about it.
48:11Well, I've got my own bitches to talk about, two of whom are in this room. Okay, you can talk about your bitches. I'm looking at one of them right now. Eduardo. Catching strays over here. Hey, that's not a stray. You know what you did, and you're going to pay for it. Fuck with my microphone. I love you both. And I haven't even said that. I never said that to my parents, so I should say it to you. That's not true, I'm kidding. Wait a minute, hold on, checking. Nope, 1977. The summer Elvis died, I told them. I'm in your corner and let me know what I can do. And I will see you on your podcast. We'll talk about bitches.
48:52Yes, you will. And I'm thinking about you both and sending you whatever crazy Irish Catholic energy is within me, half of which is malevolent, I'm sure. But... I'll take it. You know what you can send me? Because I ask all my very, very, very wealthy friends. Yep. Six million dollars. Just like, not alone. Jesus, I made that today. I mean... Okay, just six million. Six million. I know it sounds weird. No, I just closed... I asked Ed O 'Neill for six million. I asked him every time I talked to him. I just bought and closed an orphanage, and I got six million. Okay, there you go. And I have a lot of investments with defense contractors who make Claymore mines.
49:31Those are the mines that really. So, yes, ladies, just have a Christina. I hope your day gets better. And it is really lovely to talk to both of you. And weird thing to say, because I'm not your uncle, but I'm really proud of both of you. I'm extremely proud of you. So let's just I'm your comedy uncle, your weird comedy uncle. And we're getting we're getting creepy. The kind of uncles we want. Okay, yeah. The weird comedy uncle with the red wig. That's right. And be well. And thank you so much for being here today and sharing with me. I really appreciate it. I love you. Thank you for having us.
50:08All right, bye. Bye.
50:20Okay, I have something very tangentially Oscars related, which I don't think I've said on my couch. how great a job you did. Oh, thank you very much. Thank you. I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I had a really good time. The Oscars are big in our family. It's like the Super Bowl. And my wife sat down with my daughter to do a little arts and crafts, and they decided that they would try to predict what all of the famous people would be wearing at the Oscars. Interesting. Okay. And so I just want to show you... Because your daughter is quite young. She's three and a half. Three and a half. And so is my wife.
50:49Yeah. All right. And this is what my wife did for Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. Okay, I just want to show this. And so - Wait a minute. That's pretty close. They were wearing very architectural dresses. Look at this. That's insane. And so now I'm living with a woman who is convinced she's psychic. And I don't believe in that kind of stuff, but now I have to say, I don't know what's real anymore. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Yeah. The fact that your wife did that prior to the Oscars and seeing what they were going to wear - A few days before. Okay, I'm going to say this. That is eerie. That is eerily close, unless is she someone who pays attention to how they normally do?
51:26No, not at all. She had no idea. She just took a guess. I think she was going kind of off their wicked characters a little bit. Isn't this incredible? Does it mean if I say she draws like a 10-year-old too? Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. It certainly is. I thought those were pretty good. You do? Well, wait till you see how my daughter draws. Oh, I thought those were your daughters. I mean, no offense to Amanda. No, no, but also, you were up close because I got you some seats. I hooked you up. Yeah, you did. And you could see Ariana Grande trying to sit in that dress. Yes. And she had to, it was not easy.
52:02She had to, I think, sit on the edge of the seat. She couldn't recline. No, those are not sitting dresses. No, these ain't sitting dresses. Okay. Okay. Anyway, we'll stay on topic. Well, that's it for that. But this came up earlier about Ralph Fiennes. This is my daughter's prediction of what Ralph Fiennes would be wearing. Again, spot on. She says that's his little hat. Okay. But then this is where it gets pretty interesting. This is Zoe Saldana. Oh. Okay. Okay. And my favorite here, Adrienne Brody. And she pointed out what all of the pieces are here. Oh. Little bow. Yeah. Hair. Bum bum. That's his butt.
52:42And a toot coming out. Oh, a fart. He poopies in potty and he does go pee pee. Is it his peepee or he's peeping? I think he's... You know, I'm not sure. I'll have to get back to you on that. Okay, all right. I'd like to clarify. Can I say I was backstage when all that was going down with Adrian Brody and all of that happened. Yeah. This is accurate. We were hosing that place down. He was pooping in the potty and he had the peepee. We all heard it the first time. We're good. We don't need your recital of the facts. Oh, by the way, if you want to see these, just go to at team Coco podcasts on Instagram.
53:20So I think that's a pretty, that's pretty impressive. This is crazy, right? I think that's crazy that your wife was able to do that. Look at that. We should do this. We should predict what people are going to wear and stuff. We do it here around for certain guests. Oh, that's right. Oh, that's right. We should talk about this. Eduardo, please speak your truth. I'm not involved in this. There's kind of like an office pool that happens for certain guests. I'd say the A-A-A listers. where the office around here starts to guess and wonder what they're going to come in dressed like. To my recollection, it was Goldie Hawn, Jane Fonda, and Al Pacino.
53:56That's right. Yeah. So there's guesses. So we already kind of... Now, how close did you come? I'm not good at this game. But there's other people within the office that are... So those aren't the only three A-A-A listeners. No, no. Those are the only ones we did. Yeah. But nobody got Goldie Hawn because she came in in like a body glove wetsuit or something like that. Remember? remember she had like a wetsuit no it wasn't a wetsuit but it was like a sport tank top yeah yeah it was very beachy yeah well to be fair to her she came right from uh deep diving that's for pearls without a tank so um i mean she came right from that and brought us all fresh pearls yeah uh yeah it was pretty um she was amazing by the way if you have not listened to her interview check it out because I love talking to her.
54:47Yeah. She's incredible. And her memory of things that happened to her when she first moved to New York in the 60s and she didn't have a place to live yet. It was, and she talked all about all of it as if it happened yesterday. I know. The imagery and everything was incredible. I love her so much. Anyway. Yeah, we do that. We talk about, I mean, Ruthie's the one who's kind of spearheading it and she goes around makes a list of what people are going to dress up. Do people ever guess what I'm going to be wearing when I come in? No one never talks about you. That's weird. You just never come up. I guess it's because I'm so ubiquitous.
55:23I think they forget that you do this podcast sometimes. Also, I tend to wear the same thing a lot. You do? I have kind of a uniform. You're like a Steve Jobs. Yeah. You know what I mean? In my ability to lead the world of tech. No, no, no. I meant like just like wearing the same stuff a lot. Oh, I thought you meant the other way in which I. But this works. Yeah. Sometimes we guess what mood you'll come in. Yes. Oh. That's true. I mean cartoonishly hyperactive versus what? Scale of one through 10 maybe like how. How high out the knob will be turned up? Yeah. How bitty you might be. Where are we today?
56:03I think today's like a, you know, I find a tendency that when we haven't recorded in a while. Yes. There's like this freshness and there's like a layer. Penta bits. Yeah. But also like also just friendlier. That's true. Like he's happy to see everyone. I'm worried about next week because we have four sessions on the book. And by Friday, he's just going to be beating us. Well, I don't physically. Yes, I do physically beat you. I'm sorry. And that's probably wrong. I shouldn't admit to that on Mike. But yes, it is true. I was away from you guys. I've been up in Seattle visiting my in-laws. with my wife and love Seattle.
56:41Shout out to Seattle and shout out to Pam and Jake Powell. Seattle! Powell! You were in your Seahawks. Oh, that's the Mariners, yeah. And anyway, Microsoft! It doesn't work the same way. Boeing! Needles, space or otherwise. Amazon. Oops. Anyway, yeah, Had a wonderful time with the Piles, as I always do. And I really love Seattle. But what happened after being away for like eight days is I do miss you guys. And I do miss this total assery that we engage in. I don't know what else to call it. That's accurate. Foolishness. So I come in and I'm doing it's bits right away. But it's right away. Then when we do a bunch of shows in a row towards the end, And I feel like one of those jackpot machines with just pulling on the handle again and again and again and again.
57:44There's no coins left. And then I want everyone to fuck off. There he is. There he is. All right. We wrapping it up? Yeah. This was just a segment. So there's no, I just looked down at my introducing. I don't know how this podcast works. No, you don't. You won't be doing it for five years. You know, can I talk about something that you don't know how it works that would help me in editing? Is every time when you do the intro and you say, these are my guests, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then you say their name is the last thing you say. I really need to pause there because there's a musical break between that.
58:20And I always have to find a strange edit. Okay, that helps me. Yeah. That's constructive criticism. That's right. No, it's nothing you're doing wrong.
