Sarah Silverman 00:14
Hi everybody, it’s your old pal, Sarah. I walked in this morning hot. I don’t know. Maybe I had too much coffee, I don’t know, and then I had to pee before we started. So I went in to pee in the little lobby, and there were two men in there, and usually it’s empty, and, you know, there’s some part of me feels like I need to say something, and I’m like, hi, and they’re like, hi, and I go, I’m just gonna pee out of my vagina in here. They’re like, okay, I went into the bathroom because the bathroom was right there, and then I came out, and I was like, well, I did it. They were like, okay, then I came back in here and I mentioned that I did that just awkwardly. And Amy’s V was like.
Amy 01:01
You just, you said that, you said that out loud? I just, I think it’s just a strange instinct to confess to two strangers that you’re gonna go into a room that’s within earshot and pee out of your vagina.
Sarah Silverman 01:15
I think it was the discomfort of knowing that they’re sitting at it like a table that is four feet from where I’m going to be sitting, peeing out of my vagina. So I just, you know, as Mr. Rogers says, if it’s mentionable, it’s manageable.
Amy 01:32
I guess I just, I It’s a public restroom. And I just wonder if, when you go into any public restroom, why you have to pass like a crowded byway or something. Do you confess to strangers, like in a restaurant?
Sarah Silverman 01:46
It’s not the first time I’ve said it. Let’s just put it that way. I can’t just kind of say it, and then it just takes the tabooness out of it. But there is no tab, uou know people, it’s, it’s not even a women’s room. It’s a they’re very progressive. It’s got a urinal in it.
Amy 02:01
Yeah, and very blue water.
Sarah Silverman 02:04
We have fun, all right, let’s listen to some calls.
Ted 02:11
This Sarah, this is Ted. I live with my wife and two kids close to my wife’s family, and over two hours away from my family. We didn’t really see anyone from my family during the covid lockdowns because of the distance, but things started to open up again. We prioritized visits with my parents due to personal issues in our household, and balancing time with my wife’s family, we only had capacity for so much. My sister is married without kids, and took the perceived exclusion personally […] I have had a tense relationships since we were kids, and our personalities clash. After many arguments about this and other issues, she has told me to never contact her again. There’s a pattern here. She has also disowned my parents at various times over the years. She disowned our aunt and she and her husband both disowned his entire family. I tried to get back on the same page with her and my dad. Even offered to mediate. I offered to wipe the slate clean so we could agree to disagree about all of our past hurt feelings and move forward for the good of our family. She wouldn’t do that unless she was given the opportunity to air her grievances from the last 30 plus years. I wasn’t willing to let her unburden herself on me. I think that’s what therapy is for. But she said she actually used her therapy sessions to get help drafting the email disowning me torn because I really don’t want a relationship with someone so toxic, but I also know how much this hurts my parents. Do I let her unload on me for the sake of our parents, or do I just let this relationship die and break my parents’ heart? Thanks, Sarah.
Sarah Silverman 03:52
I would say the former over the latter, if that includes breaking your parents heart. But it depends on what you can handle, and that depends on how you’re feeling about your own self, but you know, it’s all about what you can endure if you feel secure and strong in your life and your heart. It would be generous to hear her out and to you know you might even be interested in what she has to say, and whether you agree with it or you like it, or you don’t like it, or it hurts your feelings, you will have heard her out. You will have beared witness, and that alone may give her more than you know, to feel heard. And you know, you may think that you know her childhood because you were there, but the truth is, more often than not, siblings have completely different childhood experiences under that same roof, so I don’t know, but if you decided you were strong and secure enough to to hear what she has to say, and it can be something you take in, it could be something you let roll off your back. It could be something that you just do for her, or it could be something that you do completely in earnest, you just might be amazed. What just quietly listening can do. You’re probably going to want to respond a bunch of times. Maybe she’ll give you the space to do that, but maybe you don’t, you just let her say it all. You don’t look at your phone, you don’t roll your eyes, you don’t bring judgment into it at all. You just listen, and at the end, when she’s done, let her know that you heard her, and maybe you’ll walk away thinking she’s fucking bananas or grateful for her extreme boundaries, or maybe you won’t. Maybe this will get give you something as well, if you think you can endure that words being spoken at you from someone who is hurting. Maybe you should. Maybe you go to her therapist session with her, so that there is someone you know, there for her, but also there for you to make sure that it’s kind of done on the up and up, you know, or in the kind of healthiest possible way. And you can probably do it with her and her therapist on Zoom, which is convenient, but you don’t have to. You don’t owe it to her, and you don’t even have to think that she’s right, but you could be open, and you’ve got kids and your wife, and you’ve got people who love you, who have your back, and that’s kind of great stuff, and it should give you a strength to be able to do this for her, and maybe it will be all vitriol, and you’re gonna have to just let it roll off your back, and maybe just hear that, and just hear, just listening, just having her feel like she’s been heard to exhaustion, just as what everything, anything and everything she wants and needs to say, what a mitzvah that might be, or it won’t help anything, but you will have tried and trying, just by sitting and listening is pretty low lift, but I understand it’s, it’s, there’s a lot of emotions there, even for you. So I don’t know it’s up to you, but if you do it, call back in and let me know how it went. This is tough stuff, all right. Good luck, what else?
Sender 2 08:21
Hey there, Miss x. This is Miss X. I have a question for you, if you could name yourself as an adult over 40, what would you name yourself?
Sarah Silverman 08:34
Name myself, that’s it? That’s if I could name myself, that’s what she’s saying? You know, it’s weird. I like my name. I don’t know. I guess it’s all I know, I don’t know any different, I never really thought about it. I mean, when I was a kid, I used to imagine what my stage name would be but no, I for some reason, I like it. Sometimes when I’m in an altered state, I really think about it, though I go weird, whoa, like Sarah, someone just named me Sarah, someone else that isn’t me named me. It’s such a personal decision.
Amy 09:17
I was supposed to be named Sydney.
Sarah Silverman 09:19
Oh, that’s a pretty name.
Amy 09:20
And I love it, and I wish that I was the reason why my mom changed it very last minute, was because she was worried I’d have a lisp and be thinneath me.
Sarah Silverman 09:31
Oh, my God, that’s such an odd preventative. Well, you know, Susie was supposed to be Amy. She was supposed to be Amy Susan Silverman, but then they realized her initials would be ass, so they changed it to Susan Amy Silverman. That’s her middle name.
Amy 09:47
Is that true? She’s Sass instead, yep, hmm.
Sarah Silverman 09:50
And I like, I’m Sarah, Kate Silverman. And they were gonna name me Kate Sarah, and then my Nana said, like, I had a. A Kate who I hated, and bubble. And they were like, all right, well, we’ll name her Sarah, Kate. And then she found out she was wrong or something, and she wanted them to switch it back, and they’re like, too late.
Amy 10:12
Well, I was named Amy after my grandmother who was living, which is not a very.
Sarah Silverman 10:18
No, that’s not what Jews do.
Amy 10:20
Right, but her name was Amy, and she hated it so much that she changed it to Miriam. So I don’t understand, I’m I just, they just, should have just stuck to Sydney.
Sarah Silverman 10:32
Yeah, or usually they will take, like, an A name well, that’s when they’re dead anyway, yeah. I mean, my parents just, they named me. Your parents name you, I mean, unless you change your name, but, um, I don’t know. I like it, never questioned it really doesn’t matter to me, I guess, but, but, yeah, if I guess, if I didn’t like it, I would change it. I mean, they looked at a hairy blob and said, Sarah we’ll, name her Sarah. If I was a boy, I was going to be Jr John, Robert, after the Kennedys, because, you know, that was that time. But we were talking the other day, my sister Laura and I were talking about and Jodine, I think we were talking about baby names, and how it’s so odd when babies are little some names just don’t like Dimitri Martin. We’re hanging out with him and his wife, Rachel, and they have a son named they have these two gorgeous kids, and they and and their son’s name is Paul. But I remember when Paul was like, too. It just made me laugh so hard that he was Paul. Paul the two year old. And Laura was like, yeah, it’s like, people named Cheryl were babies named Cheryl. I don’t know that, just laugh. Sorry to Cheryl’s, but it’s just, you know, baby Cheryl. All right, what else?
Sadie 11:58
Hi, Sarah, it’s your best friend, Sadie from Fort Wayne, Indiana, and I am currently moving into my first apartment, and it’s so exciting. I have an apartment with a beautiful view of the city, and I was just wondering, what advice do you have for living on your own? I know from what I’ve heard in your past episodes, you have loved living on your own, and this is my first time, so I would love hearing your advice of adapting to living on your own. So yeah, also I have been listening to Huey Lewis in the news constantly lately, and their music just brings me so much joy. So I was wondering what music brings you joy? Anyways, love you and thanks for all you do, bye.
Sarah Silverman 13:01
Um, first of all, congratulations on your apartment and just enjoy this fucking amazing, precious time, you know, sing loud in the shower or anywhere where be pantsless. You are the king of your castle, and this won’t be forever, you know. So it’s just, it’s such precious time, you know. And sometimes some people need to learn how to love it. But if you have to learn how to love it, please do, because it is the greatest gift you can give yourself just loving being alone. You know, I used to come home to my apartment and I would, I’d say, what do you want to do tonight me? You know, like, boy, I just, I loved it, loved it, and still really covet being alone, as I share my life now with Rory, we still get time alone, and it’s important, but boy, just you get you make all the rules. You know, it’s like that. Taylor Swift’s song, lover, this is our house, we make the rules.
Debbie 14:31
Hi, Sarah, it’s your best friend, Debbie, looking for a little advice from you how to deal with this latest situation with my ex husband. He’s a narcissist and very emotionally immature, and coincidentally, an actor, and part of our divorce agreement is the residuals during the time of our marriage are community property, so half of them are legally my income. So he has recently cut off any visibility to seeing the residuals, so I now have no way of knowing if he’s paying me when he’s paying me, and it makes it very difficult for me as a single mom. So looking for a little advice here, obviously the law is on my side, but if I move forward with anything, the blowback is going to be pretty significant. And obviously my daughter is her top of mind, but I also have to consider my finances, because we’re talking about a good deal of money for the rest of my life. So not quite sure what to do. Would love to hear if you think the juice is worth the squeeze. Thank you.
Sarah Silverman 16:01
Yeah. I’m wondering what the juice is from this. I mean, listen, I think you could say, you know, maybe tacked on to a call about something else or a text about something else innocuous, just add, you know, like, oh, yeah, oh, hey, um, your residuals are no longer like visible for me, is that, was that a mistake or what happened just kind of casual no big deal, because they are supposed to be transparent, right so he did something to make it not transparent. Or maybe it was an oversight or something an accident, you know, I don’t like giving them a benefit of the doubt, you know. So the app interview or or give them an opportunity to present it as an oversight or something that accidentally happened, you know. But, boy, I mean, I, I’ve, I’ve heard residuals can be substantial, but, um, I will say, you know, as an actor myself, they are, um, more often than not, they’re like, literally, checks for three cents, one penny, maybe a big one for like, $15 you know, Rory just got a box of checks. I mean, there must be 300 checks in there, and they’ll probably add up to, like, I maybe $80 you know, so, but, you know, listen, maybe he was on, you know, like a CSI or something, in which case, I bet, you know, just because, boy, they play everywhere, and once they’re in reruns, and specifically dramas kind of are can go internationally. You know, comedy tends to there are very there’s very few comedy that goes that works internationally, because comedy is so kind of culture specific, um, other than Adam Sandler, who Ted Sarandos discovered, like, what is international. And I don’t think that’s a surprise to any of us. Anyway, yeah, no matter what happens with these residuals, I would absolutely just ask them about it casually, not accusationally. That can’t be a word, can it? But also, you know, maybe pursue other avenues of making income. I assume you know the scope of his residuals from when you were married and when, as it’s been transparent up until now. So I guess you know what, generally, what kind of money you’re potentially missing out on. But yeah, I don’t know that you should just sit around waiting for those checks to support you and your children. I think I just, I don’t know what, what kind of money he’s pulling in, but no, he certainly shouldn’t be hiding it from you or keeping it from you and your your shared children. So good luck, what else?
Sender 5 19:01
Sarah, I randomly decided to rewatch the movie heartbreakers on Max, and to my surprise, both you and Zach Galifianakis are hearing it. And so it got me wondering if you have any good stories from the making of the movie that you can share with us, thanks.
Sarah Silverman 19:21
It was fun, kuckily, all my scenes were with Zach, so we had a blast together. I think we were in Florida. We were in Miami, maybe for a few weeks and but we only had a few days to shoot, so we had a we caused a lot of trouble. We were in a really gross hotel because we weren’t famous, and it was like a motel. It was fine, I had not turned into a hotel slut at that point, so it was happy to take what they gave us but yeah, we had a lot of fun. One of the stars was very, very nice. You know, we had heard was a Scientologist, and so we tried to bait him, which is totally shitty, but that is something that I was remembering, or you were in a scene in a bar, and I’d say stuff like, God, I just have, like, no direction in life, like I just feel rudderless, like trying to get him to be like, you should come to my church. So shitty, very cunty, and he didn’t bite. And he was also, by the way, lovely, very, very lovely. Everyone actually on that was awesome. Sigourney Weaver, so awesome. Jennifer Love Hewitt, just completely lovely. Jason Lee, Ray Liotta was great. I don’t think I ever really got to meet Gene Hackman. He was kind of like untouchable there. I didn’t have like scenes with him. I think I was like in a maybe, like a wedding scene where he was no, I don’t know if I ever had any scenes with him, but I never got to talk to them or meet them, which makes me very sad, because I’m a big, big, big fan. Let’s see we that, you know, weed wasn’t legal, and I didn’t have the nut to fly with it at that point, so we had to procure weed, and we did find an extra named curly that we absolutely used for weed, and then we convinced him to let us into his grandmother’s tiny little house. She wasn’t there. I don’t know where she was, but we used her oven and made, I made pot brownies, which I really excelled at at that time of my life, and pretty much lived off of those for the shoot. Everyone was very nice, it was fun. I don’t have any David Merkin directed that of you recognize his name. You can probably picture it in big yellow bubble letters because he’s one of the Simpson OGs, Simpsons OGs. All right, there you go. I feel like I gave you a lot there. What else?
Sender 6 22:12
Hi, Sarah. Why is it that some comedians continue to be given platforms to do really shitty jokes about violence towards women or violence towards transgender people, and why is that still considered funny? Like, I’m, I’m, I’ve had it.
Sarah Silverman 22:37
Oh, there you go, I guess there’s an audience for it, and comedy subjective, and, you know, listen this, this gets a little freedom of Speechy for me, you know, like assholes need comedy too. No, I’m kidding, but I’m also serious, but, um, yeah, um, freedom of speech still means something to me of course, when we’re talking about giant platforms spreading misinformation, that’s very different to me, but comedy is subjective. You listen, I see that kind of comedy, The that’s punching down as super lame, really easy, low hanging fruit, not funny. That’s how I feel, and listen, I’ll listen to the dumbest, shittiest ideas if they are funny enough, if the funny outweighs the shittiness, it wins. But it very rarely does, if you find yourself laughing despite yourself, that’s, that’s a little bit is comedy you know, luckily, there are brilliant voices in comedy, and incredibly, incredibly diverse voices now, now more than ever in comedy, and if you love trans jokes, go see a trans comic. I mean, it’s pretty simple like me telling a joke about Black culture really doesn’t sing like when a black comic does that right? If Chris Rock talked about how the Jews were annoying, it would maybe not be as endearing as if I do, although I feel like he probably could, and it would be hilarious. But there are comics that talk about everyone as well, like just, you know, no one’s off limits. And I still believe that in massively. I believe that intention matters in comedy and beyond. And we just don’t we live in a transcript world right now. You. Where, if it doesn’t work, written on a page, then you’re canceled, or whatever, but you know, there is a real difference a lot of times between a transcript of something and the way a comic says it and and what they mean beyond their words, the intention beyond their words, the absolute power of what they’re saying, you know, which is actually a math term, just meaning negative seven and seven are equal each other in absolute power. Anyway. Sarah, pull your shit together. Yeah. But I still, I still believe in tension matters. We feel it in our guts. It’s why some comics can talk about any race or any gender or any nationality and get so much love, and another comic could talk about that stuff, the exact same stuff, and it feels gross, and because there’s no love there, there’s a palpable, a genuine difference between those things, and it’s in it. It’s from something you can only just feel. We live in a very concrete, black and white moment, so it’s hard to but you can feel it. You can tell the difference. There are comics that can do that well, whose intentions are beautiful, and they can really do hard comedy about anyone or any kind of peoples, and get away with it because they are love. You know what I mean? Vern, oh, my god, I’m so old. That’s a very old reference.
John 26:34
Hey Sarah, this is John from Minnesota. I’ve been a long time fan of your work since my mom introduced me to it, 20 plus years ago, and especially so when I was a resident of New Hampshire for several years. Sinceres most famous celebrity. So I’m a father of two young girls, just three in one, and I spent a lot of time thinking about, how can I be a good dad, and especially, how can I be a good dad to two girls. So my question is, just in your experience with your own dad and kind of growing up as a girl, what things did he most appreciate that he did for you as a dad, and are there any things that you wish he might have had or wish he could have done better? So any any kind of feedback is welcome, and I appreciate hearing what you have to say. Thank you, bye.
Sarah Silverman 27:40
My dad was my best friend, but I will say as growing up as a kid, he was very loving, but he was a very angry, very, very angry man through my childhood, and it was understandable as an adult, I know why, but as a kid, you don’t know why, and and so it was really, it was scary. It was, you know, I hear about people who have alcoholic parents, and the similarity is that my dad would explode. You didn’t know when it was coming, why it was coming, you know, you just hoped he had a good day at work. But you know, other than not knowing when he would lose his shit and often in public, he was a actually a very loving, very present dad in many ways. He He where my mom went to zero of my games like, I was an athlete growing up, you know, my dad went to every single one of my games, and he, you know, that stuff means something. You know, he didn’t get in fights at the games thank God he, you know, he had a garden and we could pick, like, what we were gonna grow. I grew parsley. He would come. I lived my sisters moved in with him. I stayed with my mom and and he would just come over, just to take a walk with me. He’d pick me up, sometimes really early, for from Mom’s house to and we’d go to the YMCA and swim laps and then go get an egg McMuffin, and then he’d take me to school, and all that stuff was just so special, just gestures of care, just interest, and and, and he was real good at it. And, you know, he said to Susie, Susie, just recently said this, you know, he said I was a better parent than my dad. I mean, anyone could be the guy beat the shit out of him every day. He said I was a better parent than my dad, and you’ll be a better parent than me, you know. And it’s a beautiful and true, aspirational thing, you know, and so, yeah, you know, the amazing thing about my dad is that he grew and changed and found happiness, and that was the greatest gift. You know, as adults, he was my absolute best friend. And I, yeah, so listen, you’re playing the long game but you know what, how different, how is raising girls different? I wouldn’t know, but hopefully not in any way anymore. You know that that boys should be raised to have feelings and emotions and to express them, because we have generations of male adults that convert every single emotion they have into rage, because that’s manly. We raise our children to understand that we’re made of feelings. Well, you know my dad, you know, growing up, he there. He was wonderful, he was terrible, he was all the things. And when, if, when I would cry, he would say, babies cry, only babies cry. You know, it’s a fucked up thing. And as an adult, I know that. I know exactly where it comes from. You know, it’s just he was not given those tools, and he was made uncomfortable by my dears, you know, but, um, but boy, just to have a dad that can be wrong, can say sorry, can grow, can change, can work on himself, can find happiness. And boy, he found happiness. And look, there was all this room for for more when you’re not you know, consumed with rage, jealousy, despair and all that shit, I guess so what I’m saying is be happy and to worry and be concerned about their happiness. Number one, put your air mask on, make sure that you’re happy. That’s going to do wonders for them. Model everything you do and how you handle things, how you handle the shitty stuff, the losses, the failures they’re going to see. How you handle that and how you handle that is, is really gonna define you for them and model for them what you do when the chips are down. That’s a good one, I think. All right, there’s a little word salad for you, I hope it there’s something to take from there. And good luck and congratulations, because daughters are the best. Not that I know I’m childless, but I know that sisters are the best, and I know my dad loved having girls his goyals. All right, what else?
Jess 32:58
Hi, Sarah, this is Jess Collins, sorry, it’s a bit windy. I’m walking to the park on my way to pick up some antibiotics because I’ve had like a sinus infection chest cough. I like going on two months now, and it keeps just kind of going up up to the sinuses and then down to the chest, and then up again and down again. Anyway, I’m finally biting the bullet, taking some antibiotics, and I will also be picking up a probiotic to take alongside it, and it just got me thinking about my one of my greatest pet peeves in this world, which is that doctors do not, by default, prescribe a probiotic, or at least suggest a probiotic every time they prescribe an antibiotic because it strips your gut of all of its important flora, and like the bacteria that you need to be well and to digest things properly, and it gives you yeast infection, so you really need to supplement with a probiotic. And it’s like such an easy thing to do. And I know this because I’m very passionate about gut health. And apparently allopathic doctors are not. So I just wanted to, I mean, I have a feeling, you know this, but maybe somebody out there doesn’t. So if you ever are prescribed an antibiotic, make sure you also take a probiotic alongside it. Anyway, thanks for everything. Have a great day.
Sarah Silverman 34:18
This is really, I think male doctors, because my female doctors have always said, take probiotics with this, because antibiotics give you an instant yeast infection. Women know this, but because male doctors don’t have vaginas again, shockingly, even in the field of medicine, men have never had to learn the female experience in order to live lives as men, and it’s why women suffer, certainly up until now, have been suffering years and years and years with extreme pain. And told it’s all in their head and to go home and it’s endometriosis. Because men don’t get endometriosis, you know? I mean, they’re, they’re just discovering now that so much testing is done only on men, because they assume it’s just the human body’s the same, and women have suffered greatly because of it, and we’re only learning now from female scientists who are discovering this stuff, like the one I now. I don’t remember her name again, but I told you guys about who’s the scientist I follow on on on Instagram.
Amy 35:38
Moscone?
Sarah Silverman 35:39
Moscone, Lisa Moscone, Dr Lisa Moscone, who was a scientist studying Alzheimer’s, doing Alzheimer’s research. So they know that more women than men get Alzheimer’s. I just talked about this a few weeks ago, and then she discovered, you know, it’s it’s because, the reason why it’s more women is something that happens in midlife? What is it that happens in midlife to women and not men? And of course, menopause, which is just not been studied. I mean, even today, she said that the the budget that’s given to scientists to study menopause, which happens to the majority of human beings, is so low funded, it’s like the tiniest fraction of what like boners get to be studied like, anyway, blah, blah, blah, you know what I’m saying. And what else we got, you know, fucking talk about anymore, but that was a great call, and you’re right, and it’s interesting, and it makes me mad. Always take probiotics with your with your antibiotics.
Joe 36:54
Hi, Sarah. This is Joe. I called in about a year ago, or maybe less, who knows, but it was about one of your podcasts where you were a question. Somebody had called in a young woman, and she was saying, why do women always have to apologize all the time? And she gave the example of, you know, if a man bumps into her, she would apologize. And your discussion about it really struck a chord with my students, because I teach in the School of Social Work at Arizona State, and they really enjoyed it. But the reason why I’m calling now is I wanted to thank you, because I know many times you always add at the end of giving somebody advice, because a lot of people who call us some serious issues, you always say, you know, I’m not a professional, but these are my thoughts, and you recommend that they go speak to somebody, if necessary. But you know, being a licensed professional, I have to tell you that a lot of the advice you give people is really spot on. And I’m kind of a therapy snob, but if you had some, if you had some credentials, I would go see you because I think you’re really good, and I just wanted to pass that along, because I do think that you do give good advice to people. So thank you so much love you a lot, please take care. And you know, I miss my dad every day too so thank you, bye bye.
Sarah Silverman 38:18
